PART I
ITEM 1: Business
As used in this Annual Report, the terms “we,” “us,” “our” and “Macatawa” mean Macatawa Bank Corporation and its subsidiaries, unless the context indicates another meaning.
We are a bank holding company organized in 1997 under Michigan law, and own all of the common stock of Macatawa Bank. Macatawa Bank has two wholly-owned subsidiaries: Macatawa Bank Mortgage Company and Macatawa Bank Brokerage Services, Inc. Macatawa Bank was organized and commenced operations in November, 1997 as a Michigan chartered bank with depository accounts insured by the FDIC to the extent permitted by law. Our bank provides a full range of commercial and consumer banking services, through 14 full service branches located in Ottawa county, northern Allegan county, and southwestern Kent county. We offer commercial and personal banking services, including checking and savings accounts (including certificates of deposit), safe deposit boxes, travelers checks, money orders, trust services and commercial, mortgage and consumer loans. As of December 31, 2001, we had total assets of $670.2 million, total deposits of $526.2 million, approximately 51,000 deposit accounts and shareholders’ equity of $66.5 million.
Our administrative office is located at 348 South Waverly Road, Holland, Michigan 49423, and our telephone number is (616) 820-1444. Unless the context clearly suggests otherwise, financial information and other references to us include Macatawa Bank.
Deposit Services. We offer a broad range of deposit services, including checking accounts, savings accounts and time deposits of various types. Transaction accounts and time certificates are tailored to the principal market area at rates competitive with those offered in the area. All deposit accounts are insured by the FDIC up to the maximum amount permitted by law. We solicit these accounts from individuals, businesses, associations, churches, nonprofit organizations, financial institutions and government authorities. We may also use alternative funding sources as needed, including advances from Federal Home Loan Banks, conduit financing and the packaging of loans for securitization and sale.
Real Estate Loans. We originate residential mortgage loans, which are generally long-term with either fixed or variable interest rates. Our general policy, which is subject to review by our management as a result of changing market and economic conditions and other factors, is to retain all variable interest rate mortgage loans in our loan portfolio and to sell all fixed rate loans in the secondary market. We also offer home equity loans.
The retention of variable rate loans in our loan portfolio helps to reduce our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. However, these loans generally pose credit risks different from the risks inherent in fixed rate loans, primarily because as interest rates rise, the underlying payments from the borrowers rise, thereby increasing the potential for default.
Personal Loans and Lines of Credit. We make personal loans and lines of credit available to our customers for various purposes, such as the purchase of automobiles, boats and other recreational vehicles, home improvements and personal investments. Our current policy is to retain substantially all of these loans in our loan portfolio.
Commercial Loans. Commercial loans are made primarily to small and mid-sized businesses. These loans are and will be both secured and unsecured and are made available for general operating purposes, acquisition of fixed assets including real estate, purchases of equipment and machinery, financing of inventory and accounts receivable, as well as any other purposes considered appropriate. We generally look to a borrower’s business operations as the principal source of repayment, but will also receive, when appropriate, mortgages on real estate, security interests in inventory, accounts receivable and other personal property and/or personal guarantees.
2
Although we take a progressive and competitive approach to lending, we stress high quality in our loans. On a regular basis, our board of directors reviews selected loans. In addition, the loan committee of our board of directors also reviews larger loans for prior approval when the loan request exceeds the established limits for the lending officer. We also maintain a loan review process designed to promote early identification of credit quality problems. Any past due loans and identified problem loans will be reviewed with our board of directors on a regular basis.
Regulatory and supervisory loan-to-value limits are established by Section 304 of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 (“FDICIA”). Our internal limitations follow those limits and in some cases are more restrictive than those required by the regulators.
We have established relationships with correspondent banks and other independent financial institutions to provide other services requested by our customers, including loan participations where the requested loan amounts exceed our policies or legal lending limits.
Trust Services. We began offering trust services in January, 1999, to further provide for the financial needs of our customers. As of December 31, 2001, the Trust Department had assets of approximately $261 million.
Our primary market area includes Ottawa County, northern Allegan County and southwestern Kent County, all located in Western Michigan. There are many bank, thrift and credit union offices located within our market area. Most are branches of larger financial institutions. We also face competition from finance companies, insurance companies, mortgage companies, securities brokerage firms, money market funds and other providers of financial services. Many of our competitors have been in business a number of years, have established customer bases, are larger and have higher lending limits than we do. We compete for loans principally through our ability to communicate effectively with our customers and to understand and meet their needs. Our management believes that our personal service philosophy enhances our ability to compete favorably in attracting individuals and small businesses. We actively solicit customers and compete for deposits by offering our customers personal attention, professional service, and competitive interest rates.
We do not believe that existing environmental regulations will have any material effect upon our capital expenditures, our earnings or our competitive position.
As of December 31, 2001, we had 154 full-time and 75 part-time employees. We have assembled a staff of experienced, dedicated and highly qualified professionals whose goal is to provide outstanding service. The majority of our management team has at least 10 years of banking experience, and several key personnel have more than 20 years of banking experience. None of our employees is represented by collective bargaining agreements with us.
On November 20, 2001, Macatawa Bank Corporation and Grand Bank Financial Corporation entered into a definitive Agreement and Plan of Merger. Upon completion of the merger, Grand Bank Financial Corporation will be merged into Macatawa Bank Corporation, which will result in us becoming the holding company for Grand Bank. The transaction has been approved by the boards of directors of both companies and is subject to approval by the shareholders of both companies and other customary conditions. Additional information is included in the Prospectus and Joint Proxy Statement included in our Registration Statement on Form S-4, which has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The transaction is expected to be completed early in the second quarter of 2002.

The following is a summary of certain statutes and regulations affecting Macatawa Bank Corporation and Macatawa Bank. This summary is qualified in its entirety by such statutes and regulations. A change in applicable laws or regulations may have a material effect on us and our business.
Financial institutions and their holding companies are extensively regulated under federal and state law. Consequently, our growth and earnings performance can be affected not only by management decisions and general economic conditions, but also by the statutes administered by, and the regulations and policies of, various governmental regulatory authorities. Those authorities include, but are not limited to, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Federal Reserve Board”), the FDIC, the Commissioner of the Michigan Office of Financial and Insurance Services (“Commissioner”), the Internal Revenue Service, and state taxing authorities. The effect of such statutes, regulations and policies can be significant, and cannot be predicted with a high degree of certainty.
Federal and state laws and regulations generally applicable to financial institutions and their holding companies regulate, among other things, the scope of business, investments, reserves against deposits, capital levels relative to operations, lending activities and practices, the nature and amount of collateral for loans, the establishment of branches, mergers, consolidations and dividends. The system of supervision and regulation applicable to us and our bank establishes a comprehensive framework for our respective operations and is intended primarily for the protection of the FDIC’s deposit insurance funds, our depositors, and the public, rather than our shareholders.
Federal law and regulations establish supervisory standards applicable to the lending activities of our bank, including internal controls, credit underwriting, loan documentation and loan-to-value ratios for loans secured by real property.
Macatawa Bank Mortgage Company, a subsidiary of Macatawa Bank, is subject to various state and federal regulations. Macatawa Bank Brokerage Services, Inc. will also be subject to state and federal regulations when it begins operations.
General. On January 9, 2002, Macatawa Bank Corporation became a financial holding company, within the meaning of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 (“GLB Act”), and is registered with, and subject to regulation by, the Federal Reserve Board under the Bank Holding Company Act, as amended (the “BHCA”). Under the BHCA, we are subject to periodic examination by the Federal Reserve Board, and are required to file with the Federal Reserve Board periodic reports of our operations and such additional information as the Federal Reserve Board may require.
In accordance with Federal Reserve Board policy, we are expected to act as a source of financial strength to Macatawa Bank and to commit resources to support Macatawa Bank in circumstances where we might not do so absent such policy. In addition, if the Commissioner deems Macatawa Bank’s capital to be impaired, the Commissioner may require Macatawa Bank to restore its capital by a special assessment upon us as the bank’s sole shareholder. If we were to fail to pay any such assessment, the directors of Macatawa Bank would be required, under Michigan law, to sell the shares of the bank’s stock owned by us to the highest bidder at either a public or private auction and use the proceeds of the sale to restore the bank’s capital.
Investments and Activities. In general, any direct or indirect acquisition by us of any voting shares of any bank which would result in our direct or indirect ownership or control of more than 5% of any class of voting shares of such bank, and any merger or consolidation between us and another financial holding company or bank holding company, will require the prior written approval of the Federal Reserve Board under the BHCA. No Federal Reserve Board approval is required for us to acquire a company, other than a bank holding company or bank, engaged in activities that are financial in nature as determined by the Federal Reserve Board.
The merger or consolidation of an existing bank subsidiary of ours with another bank, or the acquisition by such a subsidiary of assets of another bank, or the assumption of liability by such a subsidiary to pay any deposits in another bank, will require the prior written approval of the responsible Federal depository institution regulatory agency under the Bank Merger Act. In addition, in certain such cases an application to, and the prior approval of, the Federal Reserve Board under the BHCA and/or the Commissioner under the Michigan Banking Code, may be required.
4
Financial holding companies, like us, may engage in various lending, advisory, insurance and insurance underwriting, securities underwriting, dealing and market making, and merchant banking activities (as well as those activities previously approved for bank holding companies by the Federal Reserve Board) together with such other activities as may be determined by the Federal Reserve Board (in coordination with other regulatory authorities) to be financial in nature, incidental to any such financial activity, or complimentary to any such financial activity, and which do not pose a substantial risk to the safety or soundness of depository institutions or the financial system generally. In order to maintain the benefits and flexibility of being a financial holding company, each of our subsidiary depository institutions must continue to be “well-capitalized” and “well-managed” under applicable regulatory standards and each subsidiary depository institution must maintain at least a satisfactory or above Community Reinvestment Act rating.
Capital Requirements. The Federal Reserve Board uses capital adequacy guidelines in its examination and regulation of bank holding companies. If capital falls below minimum guidelines, a bank holding company may, among other things, be denied approval to acquire or establish additional banks or non-bank businesses.
The Federal Reserve Board’s capital guidelines establish the following minimum regulatory capital requirements for bank holding companies: (i) a leverage capital requirement expressed as a percentage of total average assets, and (ii) a risk-based requirement expressed as a percentage of total risk-weighted assets. The leverage capital requirement consists of a minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital (which consists principally of shareholders’ equity) to total average assets of 3% for the most highly rated companies, with minimum requirements of 4% to 5% for all others. The risk-based requirement consists of a minimum ratio of total capital to total risk-weighted assets of 8%, of which at least one-half must be Tier 1 capital.
Dividends. Macatawa Bank Corporation is a corporation separate and distinct from Macatawa Bank. Most of our revenues are received by it in the form of dividends paid by our bank. Thus, our ability to pay dividends to its shareholders is indirectly limited by statutory restrictions on our bank’s ability to pay dividends described below. Further, in a policy statement, the Federal Reserve Board has expressed its view that a bank holding company experiencing earnings weaknesses should not pay cash dividends exceeding its net income or which can only be funded in ways that weaken the bank holding company’s financial health, such as by borrowing. Additionally, the Federal Reserve Board possesses enforcement powers over bank holding companies and their non-bank subsidiaries to prevent or remedy actions that represent unsafe or unsound practices or violations of applicable statutes and regulations. Among these powers is the ability to proscribe the payment of dividends by banks and bank holding companies. Similar enforcement powers over our bank are possessed by the FDIC. The “prompt corrective action” provisions of federal law and regulation authorizes the Federal Reserve Board to restrict the payment of dividends by us for an insured bank which fails to meet specified capital levels.
In addition to the restrictions on dividends imposed by the Federal Reserve Board, the Michigan Business Corporation Act provides that dividends may be legally declared or paid only if after the distribution a corporation, like us, can pay its debts as they come due in the usual course of business and its total assets equal or exceed the sum of its liabilities plus the amount that would be needed to satisfy the preferential rights upon dissolution of any holders of preferred stock whose preferential rights are superior to those receiving the distribution.

General. Macatawa Bank is a Michigan banking corporation, and its deposit accounts are insured by the Bank Insurance Fund (the “BIF”) of the FDIC. As a BIF insured Michigan chartered bank, Macatawa Bank is subject to the examination, supervision, reporting and enforcement requirements of the Commissioner, as the chartering authority for Michigan banks, and the FDIC, as administrator of BIF. These agencies and the federal and state laws applicable to our bank and its operations, extensively regulate various aspects of the banking business including, among other things, permissible types and amounts of loans, investments and other activities, capital adequacy, branching, interest rates on loans and on deposits, the maintenance of non-interest bearing reserves on deposit accounts, and the safety and soundness of banking practices.
Deposit Insurance. As an FDIC-insured institution, we are required to pay deposit insurance premium assessments to the FDIC. The FDIC has adopted a risk-based assessment system under which all insured depository institutions are placed into one of nine categories and assessed insurance premiums, based upon their respective levels of capital and results of supervisory evaluation. Institutions classified as well-capitalized (as defined by the FDIC) and considered healthy pay the lowest premium while institutions that are less than adequately capitalized (as defined by the FDIC) and considered of substantial supervisory concern pay the highest premium. Risk classification of all insured institutions is made by the FDIC for each semi-annual assessment period.
The Federal Deposit Insurance Act (“FDIA”) requires the FDIC to establish assessment rates at levels which will maintain the Deposit Insurance Fund at a mandated reserve ratio of not less than 1.25% of estimated insured deposits. For several years, the BIF reserve ratio has been at or above the mandated ratio and assessments have ranged from 0% of deposits for institutions in the lowest risk category to .27% of deposits in the highest risk category. However, there is speculation that the reserve may fall below the mandated ratio resulting in increased assessments in 2003.
FICO Assessments. Our bank, as a member of the BIF, is subject to assessments to cover the payments on outstanding obligations of the Financing Corporation (“FICO”). FICO was created to finance the recapitalization of the Federal Savings and Loan Insurance Corporation, the predecessor to the FDIC’s Savings Association Insurance Fund (the “SAIF”) which insures the deposits of thrift institutions. From now until the maturity of the outstanding FICO obligations in 2019, BIF members and SAIF members will share the cost of the interest on the FICO bonds on a pro rata basis. It is estimated that FICO assessments during this period will be less than 0.025% of deposits.
Commissioner Assessments. Michigan banks are required to pay supervisory fees to the Commissioner to fund the operations of the Commissioner. The amount of supervisory fees paid by a bank is based upon the bank’s total assets, as reported to the Commissioner.
Capital Requirements. The FDIC has established the following minimum capital standards for state-chartered, FDIC insured non-member banks, such as Macatawa Bank: a leverage requirement consisting of a minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to total average assets of 3% for the most highly-rated banks with minimum requirements of 4% to 5% for all others, and a risk-based capital requirement consisting of a minimum ratio of total capital to total risk-weighted assets of 8%, at least one-half of which must be Tier 1 capital. Tier 1 capital consists principally of shareholders’ equity. These capital requirements are minimum requirements. Higher capital levels will be required if warranted by the particular circumstances or risk profiles of individual institutions.

Federal law provides the federal banking regulators with broad power to take prompt corrective action to resolve the problems of undercapitalized institutions. The extent of the regulators’ powers depends on whether the institution in question is “well capitalized,” “adequately capitalized,” “undercapitalized,” “significantly undercapitalized,” or “critically undercapitalized.” Federal regulations define these capital categories as follows:
|
Total Risk-Based Capital Ratio |
Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital Ratio |
Leverage Ratio | |
| Well capitalized | 10% or above | 6% or above | 5% or above |
| Adequately capitalized | 8% or above | 4% or above | 4% or above |
| Undercapitalized | Less than 8% | Less than 4% | Less than 4% |
| Significantly undercapitalized | Less than 6% | Less than 3% | Less than 3% |
| Critically undercapitalized | -- | -- |
A ratio of tangible equity to total assets of 2% or less |
As of December 31, 2001, each of Macatawa Bank’s ratios exceeded minimum requirements for the well capitalized category.
Depending upon the capital category to which an institution is assigned, the regulators’ corrective powers include: requiring the submission of a capital restoration plan; placing limits on asset growth and restrictions on activities; requiring the institution to issue additional capital stock (including additional voting stock) or to be acquired; restricting transactions with affiliates; restricting the interest rate the institution may pay on deposits; ordering a new election of directors of the institution; requiring that senior executive officers or directors be dismissed; prohibiting the institution from accepting deposits from correspondent banks; requiring the institution to divest certain subsidiaries; prohibiting the payment of principal or interest on subordinated debt; and ultimately, appointing a receiver for the institution.
In general, a depository institution may be reclassified to a lower category than is indicated by its capital levels if the appropriate federal depository institution regulatory agency determines the institution to be otherwise in an unsafe or unsound condition or to be engaged in an unsafe or unsound practice. This could include a failure by the institution, following receipt of a less-than-satisfactory rating on its most recent examination report, to correct the deficiency.
Dividends. Under Michigan law, our bank is restricted as to the maximum amount of dividends it may pay on its common stock. Our bank may not pay dividends except out of net income after deducting its losses and bad debts. A Michigan state bank may not declare or pay a dividend unless the bank will have surplus amounting to at least 20% of its capital after the payment of the dividend.
Federal law generally prohibits a depository institution from making any capital distribution (including payment of a dividend) or paying any management fee to its holding company if the depository institution would thereafter be undercapitalized. The FDIC may prevent an insured bank from paying dividends if the bank is in default of payment of any assessment due to the FDIC. In addition, the FDIC may prohibit the payment of dividends by our bank, if such payment is determined, by reason of the financial condition of our bank, to be an unsafe and unsound banking practice.
Insider Transactions. Our bank is subject to certain restrictions imposed by the Federal Reserve Act on any extensions of credit to us or our subsidiaries, on investments in the stock or other securities of our or our subsidiaries and the acceptance of the stock or other securities of us or our subsidiaries as collateral for loans. Certain limitations and reporting requirements are also placed on extensions of credit by our bank to its directors and officers, to our directors and officers, the directors and officers of our bank, to our principal shareholders and to “related interests” of such directors, officers and principal shareholders. In addition, federal law and regulations may affect the terms upon which any person becoming a director or officer of our company or one of its subsidiaries or a principal shareholder in our company may obtain credit from banks with which our bank maintains a correspondent relationship.
Safety and Soundness Standards. The federal banking agencies have adopted guidelines to promote the safety and soundness of federally insured depository institutions. These guidelines establish standards for internal controls, information systems, internal audit systems, loan documentation, credit underwriting, interest rate exposure, asset growth, compensation, fees and benefits, asset quality and earnings.
7
Investments and Other Activities. Under federal law and FDIC regulations, FDIC insured state banks are prohibited, subject to certain exceptions, from making or retaining equity investments of a type, or in an amount, that are not permissible for a national bank. Federal law, as implemented by FDIC regulations, also prohibits FDIC insured state banks and their subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions, from engaging as principal in any activity that is not permitted for a national bank or its subsidiary, respectively, unless the bank meets, and continues to meet, its minimum regulatory capital requirements and the FDIC determines the activity would not pose a significant risk to the deposit insurance fund of which the bank is a member. Impermissible investments and activities must be divested or discontinued within certain time frames set by the FDIC in accordance with federal law. These restrictions are not currently expected to have a material impact on the operations of our bank.
Consumer Protection Laws. Our bank’s business includes making a variety of types of loans to individuals. In making these loans, we are is subject to State usury and regulatory laws and to various federal statutes, including the privacy of consumer financial information provisions of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act and regulations promulgated thereunder, the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, the Fair Credit Reporting Act, the Truth in Lending Act, the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act, and the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act, and the regulations promulgated thereunder, which prohibit discrimination, specify disclosures to be made to borrowers regarding credit and settlement costs, and regulate the mortgage loan servicing activities of our bank, including the maintenance and operation of escrow accounts and the transfer of mortgage loan servicing. In receiving deposits, our bank is subject to extensive regulation under State and federal law and regulations, including the Truth in Savings Act, the Expedited Funds Availability Act, the Bank Secrecy Act, the Electronic Funds Transfer Act, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Act. Violation of these laws could result in the imposition of significant damages and fines upon our bank and its directors and officers.
Branching Authority. Michigan banks have the authority under Michigan law to establish branches anywhere in the State of Michigan, subject to receipt of all required regulatory approvals. Banks may establish interstate branch networks through acquisitions of other banks. The establishment of de novo interstate branches or the acquisition of individual branches of a bank in another state (rather than the acquisition of an out-of-state bank in its entirety) is allowed only if specifically authorized by state law.
Michigan permits both U.S. and non-U.S. banks to establish branch offices in Michigan. The Michigan Banking Code permits, in appropriate circumstances and with the approval of the Michigan Office of Financial and Insurance Services, Division of Financial Institutions, (1) acquisition of Michigan banks by FDIC-insured banks, savings banks or savings and loan associations located in other states, (2) sale by a Michigan bank of branches to an FDIC-insured bank, savings bank or savings and loan association located in a state in which a Michigan bank could purchase branches of the purchasing entity, (3) consolidation of Michigan banks and FDIC-insured banks, savings banks or savings and loan associations located in other states having laws permitting such consolidation, (4) establishment of branches in Michigan by FDIC-insured banks located in other states, the District of Columbia or U.S. territories or protectorates having laws permitting a Michigan bank to establish a branch in such jurisdiction, and (5) establishment by foreign banks of branches located in Michigan.

ITEM 2: Description of Property.
Our administrative offices are located at 348 South Waverly Road, Holland, Michigan 49423.
We have purchased approximately 17 acres of land located between Holland and Zeeland. On December 13, 2001, we broke ground to begin the construction of a three story building that will contain approximately 49,000 square feet. Upon completion, we will consolidate our administration, human resources, trust, loan underwriting and processing, and proof and deposit operations in the new facility. Our main banking office is located at 51 E. Main Street, Zeeland, Michigan 49464, and the telephone number is (616) 748-9491. The main office consists of approximately 1,820 square feet located on the first floor of an office building and approximately 1,500 square feet in the basement. This location is in the heart of the City of Zeeland on Main Street, which our management believes provides recognition and a visible presence in the Holland-Zeeland community. The main office includes three teller stations, two customer service offices, two administrative offices, two commercial lending offices, and a vault and safe deposit boxes. We have entered into a three year lease with respect to our bank’s main office, with renewal options for up to four successive three year terms. The initial rental rate, after amendments for additional office space, is $900.00 per month, which increases by 7.5% for each three year renewal period. We are also obligated to pay all costs associated with taxes, assessments, maintenance, utilities and insurance. During December 2001 we purchased approximately 1.2 acres of land in Wyoming, Michigan. This land will be used to construct a branch and regional lending center during 2002. Upon completion, our branch at 1760-44th Street in Wyoming will be relocated to the new location.
We own or lease facilities located in Ottawa County, Allegan County and Kent County, Michigan. Our facilities as of February 1, 2002, were as follows:

We declared our first cash dividend during the fourth quarter of 2000. The dividend amount was $.07 per share and was paid December 29, 2000. Cash dividends paid are noted in the above table. During the second quarter of 2001, we distributed a 3% stock dividend to our shareholders.
We intend to continue to declare quarterly cash dividends in the future. We may also consider declaring stock dividends on an annual basis. We are expecting to obtain the funds for the payment of future cash dividends from the dividends we receive from Macatawa Bank out of its earnings. However, there can be no assurance that we will have the financial resources to continue to pay dividends in the future.

Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Actual results could differ materially from those projected in such forward-looking statements.
The following section presents additional information to assess the financial condition and results of operations of the Company and the Bank. This section should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the supplemental financial data contained elsewhere in this Annual Report.
Macatawa Bank Corporation (the Company) is a Michigan corporation and is the bank holding company for Macatawa Bank (the Bank) and Macatawa Bank Brokerage Services. Effective January 9, 2002, Macatawa Bank Corporation elected to become a financial holding company pursuant to Title I of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act. Macatawa Bank commenced operations on November 25, 1997. We provide a wide range of commercial, consumer, and trust banking services, through our network of 14 full service branches located in communities in Ottawa county, northern Allegan county and southwestern Kent County, Michigan.
While maintaining asset quality and improving profitability, we have experienced rapid and substantial growth since opening in November 1997. We first became profitable in 1999 with net income for that year of $693 thousand. Net income increased to $5.1 million for 2001 from $3.3 million for 2000. At December 31, 2001, we had fourteen branch banking offices, and three service facilities. We completed an underwritten initial public offering of common stock on April 7, 1998, resulting in net proceeds of $14.1 million. Prior to that offering, we raised $8.2 million in a private offering for the initial capitalization of Macatawa Bank. In June 1999, we completed an offering of common stock to our shareholders resulting in net proceeds of $14.6 million. In June 2001, we completed an underwritten public offering of 1,610,000 shares of our common stock at an offering price of $16.00 per share, resulting in net proceeds of $23.7 million after underwriting commissions and expenses.
Our total assets increased 34% to $670.2 million at December 31, 2001, from $499.8 million at December 31, 2000. We believe the strong asset growth reflects the acceptance of our community banking philosophy in the growing communities we serve. Our asset growth consists primarily of growth in our loan portfolio as we continue to attract new loan customers despite the strong competition from other locally based community banks and larger regional banks. The asset growth was primarily in earning assets of loans and securities, but also included increased cash, premises, and equipment. The increase in total assets was principally funded by strong deposit growth and the use of borrowed funds. Total deposits grew to $526.2 million at December 31, 2001 from $398.6 million at December 31, 2001. We attribute the strong deposit growth to our quality customer service, the desire of our customers to bank with a local bank, and convenient accessibility through the expansion of our branch network. We anticipate continued growth in total assets, due in part to the consolidation of local competitors into large out-of-state regional banks, as well as continued additional market share penetration. As we continue to grow, we expect our percentage rate of growth to decline.
Our cash and cash equivalents, which include federal funds sold and short-term investments, were $34.2 million at December 31, 2001, as compared to $26.3 million at December 31, 2000. The increase is a result of excess cash being invested in short term investments, as well as higher levels of bank balances maintained. The higher balances were required to cover uncollected funds deposited in Macatawa Bank’s correspondent bank accounts as a result of customer deposit activity.
Our security portfolio is classified as either “available for sale” or “held to maturity.” All of the securities classified as “available for sale” may be sold to meet our liquidity needs. The primary objective of our investing activities is to provide for the safety of the principal invested. Our secondary considerations include earnings, liquidity and decreased overall exposure to changes in interest rates. Securities increased $15.6 million to $64.3 million at December 31, 2001 from $48.7 million at December 31, 2000. The increase was the result of purchasing additional securities as a means of strengthening our liquidity ratio. We expect continued growth of our securities portfolio generally consistent with the growth of our company in order to maintain appropriate levels of liquidity.

Loan Portfolio
Our total loan portfolio increased 33% to $545.7 million at December 31, 2001, as compared to $410.7
million at December 31, 2000. We also had $4.6 million of loans held for sale at
December 31, 2001. There were no loans held for sale at December 31, 2000. The
majority of loans we make are to small and mid-sized businesses in the form of
commercial and commercial real estate loans. Our combined commercial loans
totaled $403.4 million at December 31, 2001, an increase of 37% from December
31, 2000. Commercial loans accounted for approximately 74% of our total
portfolio loans at December 31, 2001, as compared to 71% at the end of 2000. Our
residential real estate loan portfolio, which also includes residential
construction loans made to the individual home owner, comprises approximately
12% of portfolio loans. However, our residential loan origination volume is
significantly higher, with only a small portion of residential home loans
retained for our own portfolio. We sell the majority of fixed-rate obligations
and do not retain servicing. We originated $193 million in residential mortgages
in 2001 and $91.5 million in 2000. The lower overall interest levels experienced
during 2001 resulted in significantly higher levels of residential refinancing
and loan originations during 2001. Our consumer loan portfolio includes both
loans secured by personal property, as well as home equity fixed term and line
of credit loans. Home equity loans totaled $45.9 million at December 31, 2001,
compared to $33.5 million at December 31, 2000. Approximately 89% of our home
equity loans are underwritten at terms of a loan to value ratio of less than
90%, and are considered well collateralized.
The following table reflects the composition of our loan portfolio and the corresponding percentage of our total loans represented by each class of loans as of the dates indicated.

Nonperforming Assets.
Our nonperforming loans include loans on non-accrual, restructured loans, as well as loans delinquent
more than 90 days, but still accruing. Nonperforming loans as of December 31,
2001 totaled $2.4 million compared to $196,000 at December 31, 2000. The
increase in non-performing loans reflects primarily one credit which, while
still paying, the borrower’s deteriorating financial condition warrants
concern, and therefore the loan has been placed on non-accrual. Our loan
performance is reviewed regularly by an external loan review team, our own loan
officers, and our senior management. When reasonable doubt exists concerning
collectibility of interest or principal of one of our loans, that loan will be
placed in non-accrual status. Any interest previously accrued but not collected
at that time will be reversed and charged against current earnings. As of
December 31, 2001 there were no other interest bearing assets which required
classification. We are not aware of any recommendations by regulatory agencies,
which, if implemented, would have a material impact on our liquidity, capital or
operations.

1.41% of total portfolio loans outstanding, compared to 1.43% at December 31,
2000. Our allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level management
considers appropriate based upon the assessment of relevant circumstances. We
prepare a quarterly evaluation of the allowance for loan losses. The analysis is
based upon a number of factors, including a continuous review of our loan
portfolio, our own loss experience, the banking industry’s historical loan
loss experience, known and inherent risks included in the loan portfolio, the
composition of our loans, growth of our portfolio, and current economic
conditions.
As part of our analysis, we assign a portion of the loan loss allowance to our entire portfolio by loan type and loan grade through reviews of our past loss experience, and to specific credits that have been identified as problem loans. Our local economy and particular concentrations are considered, as well as a number of other factors. While the commercial loan portfolio has performed very well during our first four years of existence, the allowance does reflect a higher percentage allocation of the reserve against the portfolio due to management’s assessment of inherently higher risks in commercial lending. The allowance allocation to commercial loans in 2001 increased significantly over the 2000 level primarily due to the growth of $109 million in the portfolio size. Also loans subject to specific allocation increased approximately $2 million due to deterioration in several loan credits. By their very nature, commercial loans generally have a high degree of risk due to:

Premises and Equipment.
Our premises and equipment increased by $2.6 million, and totaled $14.8 million at December 31, 2001, as
compared to $12.3 million at December 31, 2000. The increase resulted primarily
from the purchase of land for our new headquarters building, as well as the
purchase of land and construction of a new branch to replace a previously leased
branch facility.
Deposits
Deposits are gathered from the communities we serve through our network of 14 branches. We offer business
and consumer checking accounts, regular and money market savings accounts, and
certificates of deposits having many options in their terms.
Our total deposits were $526.2 million at December 31, 2001, as compared to $398.6 million at December 31, 2000. We believe the increase in deposits was substantially a result of deposits from new customers. Noninterest bearing demand accounts comprised approximately 12% of total deposits at December 31, 2001, as compared to approximately 13% of total deposits at the end of 2000. Interest bearing demand and savings accounts comprised approximately 50% of total deposits at December 31, 2001, as compared to 48% at the end of last year. Time accounts as a percentage of total deposits were approximately 38% at December 31, 2001, and were approximately 39% at December 31, 2000. We set our deposit pricing to be competitive with other banks in our market area. This has enabled us to increase deposits from new, as well as existing customers, while maintaining a strong net interest margin. We periodically purchase brokered deposits to supplement funding needs. These are time accounts originated outside of our local market area. Brokered deposits comprised approximately 2% of total deposits at December 31, 2001, and approximately 4% at December 31, 2000. We operate in a very competitive environment, competing with other local banks similar in size and with significantly larger regional banks. We monitor rates at other financial institutions in the area to ascertain that our rates are competitive with the market. We also attempt to offer a wide variety of products to meet the needs of our customers.

Borrowed Funds.
Borrowed funds totaled $75.6 million at December 31, 2001 as compared to $61.2
million at December 31, 2000. Borrowed funds consist principally of advances
from the Federal Home Loan Bank. Borrowed funds also include federal funds
purchased, which are utilized to settle our daily cash letter position with our
correspondent banks. Additionally, we secured a $5.0 million credit facility in
September of 2000, which was subsequently increased to $8.0 million in March
2001. As of December 31, 2000, $4.0 million had been advanced on the credit
facility and contributed to the capital of Macatawa Bank to enable the bank to
maintain its regulatory capital levels at well-capitalized levels. The total
outstanding balance was subsequently paid off during June of 2001 with proceeds
from the common stock offering.
Retained Earnings.
We had a retained earnings balance of $3.2 million at December 31, 2001 as
compared to $1.1 million at December 31, 2000. Retained earnings is comprised of
net earnings, less dividends paid to shareholders. During 2001, we paid $1.3
million in cash dividends. A 3% stock dividend was also paid from retained
earnings during May of 2001, resulting in the transfer of $1.8 million from
retained earnings to our common stock. We also paid out cash dividends totaling
$251,000 during the three months ended December 31, 2000.
Summary of Results.
Net income totaled $5.1 million for 2001 as compared to $3.4 million in 2000,
and $693,000 during 1999. The increase in net income principally reflects growth
in our net interest income and noninterest income as a result of our growing
customer base.
Total revenues, consisting of net interest income and noninterest income, were $25.4 million during 2001, as compared to $18.6 million during 2000, and $10.1 million for 1999. Noninterest expense totaled $15.5 million for 2001, as compared to $12.7 million for 2000, and $9.4 million for 1999. Our federal income tax expense increased substantially during 2001 reflecting our fully taxable status for all of 2001. We initially became taxable during 2000 after utilizing all tax loss carry forwards from 1998 and 1997. We expect that our effective federal tax rate for future years will be 34%, with a marginal rate of approximately 33.5% due to tax-free investments.

Net interest income totaled $21.8 million during 2001, compared to $16.6 million during 2000 and $10.6 million during 1999. The 31% increase during 2001 and 57% increase during 2000, as compared to 1999, is principally due to an increase in average earning assets. The growth in income as a result of our continuing rapid loan growth, more than offset the impacts from contracting net interest margin. Our net interest margin was 3.98% for the year ended December 31, 2001, as compared to 4.18% for full year 2000. Net interest margin for 1999 was 4.37%. The decrease in our net interest margin during 2001 reflects the impact of the rapidly decreasing interest rate environment on our net interest income. Interest rates, as measured by prime rate, have fallen from 9.50% at January 1, 2001, to a historic low 4.75% at December 31, 2001, as a reaction to the slowing economic environment in the United States. As a result, our floating rate loans yield decreased rapidly, and we experienced reductions in our investment portfolio yield due to U.S. Agency refinancing of higher yielding bonds.

Provision for Loan Losses
Our provision for loan losses for 2001 was $2.3 million as compared to $1.9
million for 2000 and approximately $2.0 million for 1999. While we sustained
higher loan charge-off during 2001 as compared to our first three years in
operation, our losses as a percent of average loans totaled 9 basis points. We
determine the amount of the provision based on our judgment, after reviewing the
risk characteristics of our loan portfolio, the industry’s and our
historical loan loss experience, known and inherent risks included in both
originated loans and our portfolio, and current economic conditions. We will
continue to monitor our loan loss performance and adjust our loan loss reserve
to more closely align to the reserve with our own history of loss experience.
Should the economic climate continue to deteriorate, borrowers may experience
difficulty, and the level of non-performing loans, charge-offs, and
delinquencies could rise and require further increases in the provision.
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income totaled $3.7 million during 2001, as compared to $2.1 million
in 2000, and $1.5 million for 1999. Service charges and fees increased by
$768,000, or 67% during 2001 as compared to 2000 and reflect the significant
growth in our customer base. Gain on sale of loans increased by $710,000 over
the 2000 level, or almost 200%. This was a result of the favorable mortgage
refinance environment due to the historically low long term interest rates.
While longer term interest rates have increased during late 2001, residential
home financing rates still remain relatively attractive as compared to
historical levels of long term financing rates. Trust fees are, to a great
extent, based on the underlying values of trust assets managed. Despite a
generally downward trend in market valuation of securities during 2001, trust
fees increased 24%, as compared to the prior year due to higher average levels
of trust assets during the year. We began our Trust department in January of
1999. We believe trust fee income will continue to increase as the amount of
trust assets under our management increases. The following table details major
components of noninterest income for the years 2001, 2000 and 1999.

Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expense totaled $15.5 million for 2001, as compared to $12.7 million for 2000, and $9.4 million for
1999. The main components of noninterest expense were salaries and benefits, and occupancy and equipment expense.
These items comprised approximately 72% of noninterest expenses for 2001, as compared to 73% in 2000, and 74% for
1999. Increases in salary/benefit expense during 2001 reflect the addition of new lending staff, lending and
operations support staff, as well as additional branch staff for new locations. Other expense increases are
principally due to supporting our expanding customer base. These included advertising, data processing, legal and
professional service fees, postage, and office supply expense. Expense increases during 2000 included the impact
from five new branches we added in the last half of 1999. We also became fully taxable for the Michigan Single
Business Tax during 2000, causing other operating expenses to increase by $231,000 compared to 1999 which did not
include Single Business Tax expense. The following table details major components of noninterest expense for the

Equity Capital.
We obtained our initial equity capital, in the amount of $8.2 million, as a result of a
private placement on behalf of Macatawa Bank in November, 1997. We raised
additional equity capital of $14.1 million in our initial public offering
completed in April 1998. Due to our rapid growth, additional equity capital was
required. In June 1999, we raised $14.6 million of equity capital net proceeds
in an offering made to our shareholders. Substantially all of the proceeds of
this offering were subsequently contributed to Macatawa Bank’s capital to
support required regulatory capital levels. Our continuing asset growth required
us to contribute an additional $8.0 million of capital to Macatawa Bank during
2000. The contributed capital came from our cash reserves, as well as from
borrowings arranged to provide capital flexibility. The borrowings consisted of
a $5.0 million credit facility secured from one of our correspondent banks in
September 2000. The balance outstanding on this line of credit was $4.0 million
at December 31, 2000.
33
During the second quarter of 2001, we completed a common stock offering, issuing 1,610,000 additional shares of common stock, resulting in net proceeds to us of $23.7 million after offering commissions and expenses. We used a portion of the proceeds from the capital offering to pay off our credit facility, as well as to contribute additional capital to Macatawa Bank to maintain regulatory capital levels. The remaining new capital is available for future growth.

On November 20, 2001, we entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Grand Bank Financial Corporation, a privately held bank holding company in Grand Rapids, Michigan, which owns Grand Bank. As of December 31, 2001, Grand Bank had total assets of approximately $263 million, deposits of approximately $222 million and shareholders’ equity of approximately $17 million. We expect to issue approximately 2,375,000 shares of our common stock to shareholders of Grand Bank Financial Corporation. The merger, which is expected to be completed in early April, 2002, will be a tax-free, stock-for-stock exchange accounted for as a purchase.
As of December 31, 2001, Grand Bank Financial Corporation and Grand Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject. Grand Bank is categorized as “well capitalized” under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. As of December 31, 2001, the Tier 1 capital ratios of Macatawa Bank Corporation and Macatawa Bank exceeded the respective Tier 1 capital ratios of Grand Bank Financial Corporation and Grand Bank. Following consummation of the merger, it is expected that the Tier 1 capital ratios of Macatawa Bank Corporation would be reduced, although Macatawa Bank Corporation, Macatawa Bank and Grand Bank would continue to meet all capital adequacy guidelines to which they are subject.
The liquidity of a financial institution reflects its ability to provide funds to meet loan requests, to accommodate possible outflows of deposits and to take advantage of interest rate market opportunities. Our sources of liquidity include loan payments by our borrowers, maturity and sales of our securities available for sale, growth of our deposits and deposit equivalents, federal funds sold, our borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank, and our issuance of common stock. Liquidity management involves the ability to meet the cash flow requirements of our customers. Our customers may be either borrowers with credit needs or depositors wanting to withdraw funds.
34
Our primary market risk exposure is interest rate risk and, to a lesser extent, liquidity risk. All of Macatawa Bank’s transactions are denominated in U.S. dollars with no specific foreign exchange exposure. Macatawa Bank has only limited agricultural-related loan assets, and therefore has no significant exposure to changes in commodity prices. Therefore, our market risk exposure is mainly comprised of our sensitivity to interest rate risk. Our balance sheet has sensitivity, in various categories of assets and liabilities to changes in prevailing rates in the U.S. for prime rate, mortgage rates, U.S. Treasury rates and various money market indexes. Our asset/liability management process aids us in providing liquidity while maintaining a balance between interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities.
We use two interest rate risk measurement techniques in our interest rate risk management. The first is static gap analysis. This measures the difference between the dollar amounts of interest sensitive assets and liabilities that will be refinanced or repriced during a given time period. A significant repricing gap could result in a negative impact to our net interest margin during periods of changing market interest rates.
The following table illustrates our interest rate repricing gaps for selected maturity periods at December 31, 2001.

The above table shows that total liabilities maturing or repricing within one year exceed assets maturing or repricing within one year by $72 million. However, the repricing and cash flows of various categories of assets and liabilities are subject to competitive and other influences that are beyond our control. Gap analysis also does not reflect the magnitude of interest rate changes on net interest income as a result of the various assets and liabilities shown as repriceable within twelve months. As a result, various assets and liabilities indicated above as maturing or repricing within a stated period may, in fact, mature or reprice in other periods or at different volumes.

The second interest rate risk measurement used is simulation analysis. We use a computer-based earnings simulation model to estimate the effects of various interest rate environments on the balance sheet structure and net interest income. The simulation model assesses the direction and magnitude of variations in net interest income resulting from potential changes in market interest rates. Key assumptions in the model include repayment speeds on various loan and investment assets, cash flows and maturities of interest-sensitive assets, cash flows and maturities of interest-sensitive liabilities, and changes in market conditions impacting loan and deposit pricing. We also include pricing limiting parameters on discretionary priced liability products. These parameters reflect our pricing philosophy in response to changing interest rates.
In running the simulation model, we first forecast the next twelve months of net interest income under an assumed environment of constant market interest rates. Next, immediate and parallel interest rate shocks are constructed in the model. These rate shocks reflect changes of equal magnitude to all market interest rates. The next twelve months of net interest income are then forecast under each of the rate shock scenarios. The resulting change in net interest income is an indication of the sensitivity of our earnings to directional changes in market interest rates. This model is based solely on parallel changes in market rates and does not reflect the levels of interest rate risk that may arise from other factors such as changes in the spreads between key market rates or in the shape of the Treasury yield curve. The net interest income sensitivity is monitored by the Asset/Liability Committee which evaluates the results in conjunction with established interest rate risks parameters. The quarterly rate simulations are reported to the board of directors. The simulation also measures the change in the Economic Value of Equity. This represents the change in the net present value of our assets and liabilities under the same parallel shifts in interest rates, as calculated by discounting the estimated future cash flows using a market-based discount rate. Cash flow estimates incorporate anticipated changes in prepayment speeds of loans and securities.
The following table shows the suggested impact on net interest income over the next twelve months and Economic Value of Equity based on our balance sheet as of December 31, 2001.

In addition to changes in interest rates, the level of future net interest income is also dependent on a number of other variables, including: the growth, composition and absolute levels of loans, deposits, and other earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities; economic and competitive conditions; potential changes in lending, investing and deposit gathering strategies; and client preferences.

Recent Regulatory Developments
Recently enacted federal legislation (the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999)
eliminates many federal and state law barriers to affiliations among banks and
other financial services providers. The legislation, which took effect March 11,
2000, establishes a statutory framework pursuant to which full affiliations can
occur between banks and securities firms, insurance companies, and other
financial companies. The legislation provides some degree of flexibility in
structuring these new affiliations, although certain activities may only be
conducted through a holding company structure. The legislation preserves the
role of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System as the umbrella
supervisor for holding companies, but incorporates a system of functional
regulation pursuant to which the various federal and state financial supervisors
will continue to regulate the activities traditionally within their
jurisdictions. The legislation specifies that banks may not participate in the
new affiliations unless they are well-capitalized, well-managed and maintain a
rating under the Community Reinvestment Act of 1977 of at least satisfactory
among all affiliates.
We have elected to become a financial holding company pursuant to Title I of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, effective January 9, 2002. At the present time, we have no plans to engage in any of the expanded activities permitted under the new regulations.
Forward-Looking Statements
This report contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of
Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. We intend such forward-looking
statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking
statements contained in the Private Securities Reform Act of 1995, and are
including this statement for purposes of these safe harbor provisions.
Forward-looking statements, which are based on certain assumptions and describe
our future plans, strategies, and expectations are generally identifiable by use
of the words believe, expect, intend, anticipate, estimate, project, may or
similar expressions. The presentation and discussion of the provision and
allowance for loan losses, statements concerning future profitability or future
growth or increases, are examples of inherently forward-looking statements in
that they involve judgements and statements of belief as to the outcome of
future events. Our ability to predict results or the actual effect of future
plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Factors which could have a material
adverse affect on our operations and future prospects include, but are not
limited to, changes in: interest rates, general economic conditions,
legislative/regulatory changes, monetary and fiscal policies of the U.S.
Government, including policies of the U.S. Treasury and the Federal Reserve
Board, the quality or composition of the loan or investment portfolios, demand
for loan products, deposit flows, competition, demand for financial services in
our market area and accounting principles, policies, and guidelines. These risks
and uncertainties should be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements
and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. Further information
concerning us and our business, including additional factors that could
materially affect our financial results, is included in our filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission.

MACATAWA BANK CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2001 and 2000
Principles of Consolidation: The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Macatawa Bank, and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Macatawa Bank Mortgage Inc., and Macatawa Bank Brokerage Services, after elimination of intercompany accounts and transactions.
Nature of Operations: Macatawa Bank Corporation (the “Company”) became the bank holding company for Macatawa Bank (the “Bank”) on February 23, 1998, when all of the Bank’s outstanding common stock (842,025 shares) was converted into all of the outstanding common stock of the Company (968,329 shares) and all of the Bank’s shareholders became all of the Company’s shareholders. The exchange ratio in the conversion was 1.15 shares of Company common stock for each share of Bank common stock. The Bank’s common stock had been issued to its shareholders as of November 7, 1997 as a result of a private offering of the Bank’s common stock at a price of $10 per share or a total of $8,175,000. As this was essentially an internal reorganization, the consolidated financial statements are presented by including operations of the Company and Bank for all periods presented. Further share and per share data has been adjusted for the conversion ratio of 1.15 shares of Company stock for one share of Bank stock.
Macatawa Bank Corporation is a regional, community-based financial institution, located in Zeeland, Michigan. The Bank’s primary services include accepting deposits and making commercial, mortgage and installment loans in the Michigan counties of Allegan, Ottawa and Kent. The Bank also operates a trust department, which provides fiduciary, investment and other related services. The Bank commenced its application process on May 21, 1997, completed its common stock sale on November 7, 1997 and opened for operations on November 25, 1997 after several months of work by incorporators and employees in preparing applications with the various regulatory agencies and obtaining insurance and building space.
The Company completed an underwritten initial public offering of common stock on April 7, 1998, which resulted in net proceeds to the Company of $14.1 million. On April 30, 1999, the Company had another common stock offering and sold 1,188,043 shares, raising $14.6 million. The Company completed an additional common stock offering in July 2001 and sold 1,610,000 shares, raising $23.6 million.
The Company elected to become a financial holding company pursuant to Title I of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, effective January 9, 2002. At the present time, the Company has no plans to engage in any of the expanded activities permitted under the new regulations.
Use of Estimates: To prepare financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management makes estimates and assumptions based on available information. These estimates and assumptions affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the disclosures provided, and future results could differ. The allowance for loan losses and the fair values of financial instruments are particularly subject to change.
Concentration of Credit Risk: Loans are granted to, and deposits are obtained from, customers primarily in the western Michigan area as described above. Substantially all loans are secured by specific items of collateral, including residential real estate, commercial real estate, commercial assets and consumer assets. Other financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, include deposit accounts in other financial institutions.
Cash Flow Reporting: Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, demand deposits with other financial institutions and short-term securities (securities with maturities of equal to or less than 90 days and federal funds sold). Cash flows are reported net for customer loan and deposit transactions, interest-bearing time deposits with other financial institutions and short-term borrowings with maturities of 90 days or less.
43
Securities: Securities are classified as held to maturity and carried at amortized cost when management has the positive intent and ability to hold them to maturity. Securities available for sale consist of those securities which might be sold prior to maturity due to changes in interest rates, prepayment risks, yield and availability of alternative investments, liquidity needs or other factors. Securities classified as available for sale are reported at their fair value and the related unrealized holding gain or loss is reported in other comprehensive income.
Interest income includes amortization of purchase premium or discount. Gains and losses on sales are based on the amortized cost of the security sold. Securities are written down to fair value when a decline in fair value is not temporary.
Loans: Loans are reported at the principal balance outstanding, net of the allowance for loan losses, and charge-offs. Loans held for sale are reported at the lower of cost or market, on an aggregate basis. Loans held for sale were $4,571,000 at December 31, 2001. There were no loans held for sale at December 31, 2000. Loans are sold servicing released, therefore no mortgage servicing right assets are established.
Interest income is reported on the interest method and includes amortization of net deferred loan fees and costs over the loan term. Interest income is not reported when full loan repayment is in doubt, typically when the loan is impaired or payments are past due over 90 days (180 days for residential mortgages). Payments received on such loans are reported as principal reductions.
Allowance for Loan Losses: The allowance for loan losses is a valuation allowance, increased by the provision for loan losses and recoveries, and decreased by charge-offs. Management estimates the allowance balance required based on known and inherent risks in the portfolio, economic conditions and other factors. Allocations of the allowance may be made for specific loans, but the entire allowance is available for any loan that, in management’s judgment, should be charged-off.
Loan impairment is reported when full payment under the loan terms is not expected. Impairment is evaluated in aggregate for smaller-balance loans of similar nature such as residential mortgage and consumer loans, and on an individual loan basis for other loans. If a loan is impaired, a portion of the allowance is allocated so that the loan is reported, net, at the present value of estimated future cash flows using the loan’s existing rate or at the fair value of collateral if repayment is expected solely from the collateral. Loans are evaluated for impairment when payments are delayed, typically 90 days or more, or when the internal grading system indicates a doubtful classification.
Foreclosed Assets: Assets acquired through or instead of loan foreclosure are initially recorded at fair value when acquired, establishing a new cost basis. If fair value declines, a valuation allowance is recorded through expense. Costs after acquisition are expensed. The Bank held $66,000 in foreclosed assets at December 31, 2001 and no foreclosed assets at December 31, 2000.
Premises and Equipment: Land is carried at cost. Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using both straight-line and accelerated methods over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. Maintenance, repairs and minor alterations are charged to current operations as expenditures occur and major improvements are capitalized. These assets are reviewed for impairment under SFAS No. 121 when events indicate the carrying amount may not be recoverable.
Stock Compensation: Employee compensation expense under stock option plans is reported if options are granted below market price at grant date. Pro forma disclosures of net income and earnings per share are shown using the fair value method of SFAS No. 123 to measure expense for options granted, using an option pricing model to estimate fair value.
Income Taxes: Income tax expense is the sum of the current year income tax due or refundable and the change in deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities, computed using enacted tax rates. A valuation allowance, if needed, reduces deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
44
Fair Values of Financial Instruments: Fair values of financial instruments are estimated using relevant market information and other assumptions, as more fully disclosed separately. Fair value estimates involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment regarding interest rates, credit risk, prepayments and other factors, especially in the absence of broad markets for particular items. Changes in assumptions or in market conditions could significantly affect the estimates. The fair value estimates of existing on-and off-balance sheet financial instruments do not include the value of anticipated future business or the values of assets and liabilities not considered financial instruments.
Earnings Per Share: Basic earnings per share is net income divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share include the dilutive effect of additional potential common shares issuable under stock options. Earnings and dividends per share are restated for stock dividends, including the 3% stock dividend paid on May 4, 2001.
Comprehensive Income: Comprehensive income consists of net income and other comprehensive income. Other comprehensive income includes unrealized gains and losses on securities available for sale, net of tax.
Segment Reporting: The Company, through the branch network of the Bank, provides a broad range of financial services to individuals and companies in western Michigan. These services include demand, time and savings deposits; lending; ATM processing; cash management; and trust services. While the Company’s management team monitors the revenue streams of the various Company products and services, operations are managed and financial performance is evaluated on a Company-wide basis. Accordingly, all of the Company’s banking operations are considered by management to be aggregated in one reportable operating segment.
Loss Contingencies: Loss contingencies, including claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business, are recorded as liabilities when the likelihood of loss is probable and an amount or range of loss can be reasonably estimated. Management does not believe there now are such matters that will have a material effect on the financial statements.
New Accounting Pronouncements: A new accounting standard requires all business combinations to be recorded using the purchase method of accounting for any transaction initiated after June 30, 2001. Under the purchase method, all identifiable tangible and intangible assets and liabilities of the acquired company must be recorded at fair value at date of acquisition, and the excess of cost over fair value of net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. Identifiable intangible assets must be separated from goodwill. Identifiable intangible assets with finite useful lives will be amortized under the new standard, whereas goodwill, both amounts previously recorded and future amounts purchased, will cease being amortized starting in 2002. Annual impairment testing will be required for goodwill with impairment being recorded if the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value. As a result of this new standard, the Company’s acquisition of Grand Bank Financial Corporation in 2002 will be accounted for using the purchase method of accounting.
Dividend Restriction: Banking regulations require maintaining certain capital levels and may limit the dividends paid by the Bank to the Company or by the Company to shareholders.
Reclassifications: Some items in the prior year financial statements were reclassified to conform to the current presentation.
The Company was required to have $8,352,000 and $5,120,000 of cash on hand or on deposit with the Federal Reserve Bank to meet regulatory reserve and clearing requirements at year-end 2001 and 2000. These balances do not earn interest.

The Company’s contribution for the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000 were approximately $165,000 and $142,000.
The Company sponsors an employee stock purchase plan which allows employees to defer after-tax payroll dollars and purchase Company stock on a quarterly basis. The Company has reserved 25,000 shares of common stock to be issued and purchased under the plan, however, the plan allows for shares to be purchased directly from the Company or on the open market.

A valuation allowance related to deferred tax assets is required when it is considered more likely than not that all or part of the benefit related to such assets will not be realized. Based on the levels of taxable income in the current and prior years which would be available to absorb the benefit, management has determined that no valuation allowance is required at December 31, 2001 or 2000 and that a valuation allowance of $655,830 was required at December 31, 1999.
Some financial instruments are used to meet customer financing needs and to reduce exposure to interest rate changes. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. These involve, to varying degrees, credit and interest-rate risk in excess of the amount reported in the financial statements.
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the commitment, and generally have fixed expiration dates. Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments to guarantee a customer's performance to a third party. Exposure to credit loss if the other party does not perform is represented by the contractual amount for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Collateral or other security is normally not obtained for these financial instruments prior to their use, and many of the commitments are expected to expire without being used.
A summary of the notional or contractual amounts of financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk was as follows (dollars in thousands):
December 31,
2001 2000
---- ----
Commitments to make loans $ 83,272 $ 53,068
Unused lines of credit and letters of credit 187,422 142,817
Approximately 40% of the Bank’s commitments to make loans are at fixed rates, offered at current market rates. The majority of the variable rate commitments noted above is tied to prime and expire within 30 days. The majority of the unused lines of credit are at variable rates tied to prime.
The Bank conducts substantially all of its business operations in western Michigan.

The Company and the Bank are subject to regulatory capital requirements administered by federal banking agencies. Capital adequacy guidelines and prompt corrective action regulations involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors, and the regulators can lower classifications in certain cases. Failure to meet various capital requirements can initiate regulatory action that could have a direct material effect on the financial statements.
The prompt corrective action regulations provide five classifications, including well capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized, and critically undercapitalized, although these terms are not used to represent overall financial condition. If only adequately capitalized, regulatory approval is required to accept brokered deposits. If undercapitalized, capital distributions are limited, as is asset growth and expansion, and plans for capital restoration are required.
At December 31, 2001 and 2000, actual capital levels (dollars in thousands) and minimum required levels were:

The methods and assumptions used to estimate fair value are described as follows.
Carrying amount is the estimated fair value for cash and cash equivalents, short-term borrowings, Federal Home Loan Bank stock, accrued interest receivable and payable, demand deposits, short-term debt, and variable rate loans or deposits that reprice frequently and fully. Security fair values are based on market prices or dealer quotes, and if no such information is available, on the rate and term of the security and information about the issuer. For fixed rate loans or deposits and for variable rate loans or deposits with infrequent repricing or repricing limits, fair value is based on discounted cash flows using current market rates applied to the estimated life and credit risk. Fair values for impaired loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analysis or underlying collateral values. Fair value of loans held for sale is based on market quotes. Fair value of debt is based on current rates for similar financing.
During the fourth quarter of 2001, the Company announced the signing of a definitive agreement to acquire Grand Bank Financial Corporation. Grand Bank Financial is the holding company for Grand Bank which is based in Grand Rapids, Michigan. As of September 30, 2001, Grand Bank Financial had total assets of $252 million, total deposits of $213 million, and total portfolio loans of $218 million. The transaction is subject to shareholder approval of both companies, as well as regulatory approvals. The merger is expected to be completed in the second quarter of 2002, at which time Grand Bank will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Macatawa Bank Corporation.
