Landowners in Norfolk from the 13th cent., the Howards obtained the duchy of Norfolk through the marriage of Sir Robert Howard to Margaret Mowbray, daughter of Thomas Mowbray, 1st duke of Norfolk.  W. Sharp, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, "We continue to be successful in our strategic initiative of shifting our mix of loans, most notably growing our residential real estate and commercial real estate portfolios and reducing our C&I loans. Residential mortgage loan originations The examples and perspective in this article or section may not represent a worldwide view of the subject.

 grew to $97.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2002, from $31.4 million in the third quarter of 2002. Originations for the full-year 2002 were a record $200.5 million, compared to $90.6 million for the full-year 2001. While we were clearly helped by the interest rate environment during 2002, our success is also owed to the priority we have placed on being the leader in that business in our primary markets and the improved efficiencies of our new BSB Mortgage Corporation facility. Almost 31 percent of our new mortgage customers also opened a BSB checking account and we are quite pleased with our results in building those core customer relationships."

Mr. Sharp continued, "We also were successful in growing our commercial real estate portfolio, which increased to $147.0 million at the end of the fourth quarter of 2002, up 20.3 percent compared to $122.1 million at the end of the third quarter of 2002."

Net interest income increased from $18.8 million in the third quarter of 2002 to $19.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2002 as average earning assets Earning Assets

 increased $22.4 million from the third quarter of 2002 to the fourth quarter of 2002. Contributing to the increase in net interest income was an increase in the net interest margin, which increased to 3.86 percent in the fourth quarter of 2002 from 3.80 percent in the third quarter of 2002. The increase in earning assets provided approximately $200,000 of the increase in net interest income from the third quarter of 2002 to the fourth quarter of 2002, with changes in interest rates accounting for the remainder of the increase. Especially significant was the decline in the cost of retail certificates of deposit in the fourth quarter of 2002 by 34 basis points from the third quarter 2002, which contributed to a drop in the total cost of funds Cost of Funds

Non-interest income for the fourth quarter of 2002 increased to $6.6 million from $3.1 million in the third quarter of 2002. Included in the fourth quarter 2002 total was a net gain of approximately $3.1 million from the sale of two branches in the Elmira Elmira (ĕlmī`rə), city (1990 pop. 33,724), seat of Chemung co., extreme S central N.Y., on the Chemung River; settled 1788, inc. 1864.  area.

 for the fourth quarter of 2002 was $11.7 million, an increase of $511,000 compared to the third quarter of 2002 and $661,000 compared to the fourth quarter of 2001. The increase in total operating expense in the fourth quarter of 2002 compared to the third quarter of 2002 was largely due to increases in professional fees of approximately $232,000 and salaries and benefits increases of approximately $175,000. The legal costs associated with the resolution of problem loans continues to keep professional fees high. When comparing the increase in expenses from the fourth quarter of 2002 to the fourth quarter of 2001, the increase in salaries and benefits amounted to $531,000. Salary increases were the result of merit increases effective at the beginning of 2002 and additional staff. In addition, benefit costs rose as a result of higher health care and pension costs.

The provision for loan losses for the fourth quarter of 2002 was $9.8 million compared to $4.5 million for both the third quarter of 2002 and the fourth quarter of 2001. The increased provision for loan losses was primarily due to increased net loan charge-offs, continued high levels of problematic loans, discussed below, as well as the continued economic sluggishness and uncertainty that BSB sees in its primary markets. Fourth quarter net charge-offs were $6.3 million compared to $1.7 million in the third quarter of 2002 and $2.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2001.

Mr. Sharp also stated, "Risk management and asset quality continue to be the focus at BSB and I am pleased to be able to report a decrease in non-performing loans A non-performing loan is a loan that is in default or close to being in default. Many loans become non-performing after being in default for 3 months, but this can depend on the contract terms. . Non-performing loans at December 31, 2002 were $50.6 million or 3.76 percent of total gross loans outstanding, compared to $52.2 million or 3.98 percent of total gross loans outstanding at September 30, 2002 and $60.7 million or 4.09 percent of total gross loans outstanding at December 31, 2001. Loan loss reserve coverage of non-performing loans also improved, rising to 125.0 percent of non-performing loans from 114.4 percent coverage at September 30, 2002 and 97.0 percent coverage at December 31, 2001. In addition, the reserve to total loans is now at 4.69 percent as compared to 4.55 percent at September 30, 2002 and 3.96 percent at December 31, 2001."

Other asset quality ratios improved also with performing loans past due 30-89 days declining to $6.1 million at December 31, 2002 from $8.1 million at September 30, 2002, and performing substandard substandard,

The loan mix continued to get closer to our targets as we ended the year with 36.5 percent C&I loans, 24.5 percent residential mortgage loans, 28.1 percent consumer loans and 10.9 percent commercial real estate.

For the twelve months ended December 31, 2002, BSB had net income of $1.8 million or $0.18 per diluted share, compared to net income of $20.5 million or $2.02 per diluted share for the twelve months ended December 31, 2001, attributed primarily to the increases in the provision for loan losses and operating expenses Operating expenses

While net interest margin for the year 2002 increased slightly to 3.92 percent compared to 3.87 percent for the year 2001, the increase was more than offset by declines in the average balance of earning assets.

Operating expense for the twelve months of 2002 was $48.3 million, compared to $43.6 million for the same period in 2001. The increase was primarily the result of an increase in salary, pensions and other employee benefit costs of $2.9 million and an increase in professional fees of $684,000. Increases in salary costs for 2002 compared to 2001 consisted of both merit increases and an increase in staffing levels during 2001. The increase in benefit costs related primarily to increased health care and pension costs. Professional fees rose 31 percent mainly attributable attributable
