 losses per share of $0.18 for the second quarter of 1999 as compared to net income per share of $0.34 for the second quarter of 1998. The losses are primarily attributable to lower profitability from the sale of loans and an increased provision for losses as compared to the second quarter of 1998.

Since the first quarter of 1999, FMAC has been selling its loans to Bay View Bank (Bay View) in anticipation of the merger, for which a Definitive Merger Agreement was signed on March 11, 1999. The transaction is expected to close toward the end of the third quarter of 1999.

Revenues for the second quarter of 1999 were $16.9 million, compared to $31.6 million for the second quarter of 1998. In addition to the lower profitability from the sale of loans, FMAC wrote down its equipment loans and leases held for sale by $1.7 million in anticipation of a sale which is expected to close in the third quarter of 1999. The sale of these loans and leases is a part of the liquidation The collection of assets belonging to a debtor to be applied to the discharge of his or her outstanding debts.

 of FMAC's equipment finance division. The division's operational unit was sold on April 30, 1999.

Servicing income for the second quarter of 1999 was $5.3 million increasing 15% from $4.6 million for the second quarter of 1998, reflecting the increase in FMAC's servicing portfolio to $6.0 billion at June June: see month.  30, 1999, from $4.5 billion at June 30, 1998. Delinquencies, more than 30 days past due were 0.68% of FMAC's $6.0 billion servicing portfolio as of June 30, 1999, as compared to 1.05% of its $5.7 billion portfolio as of March 31, 1999.

Total expenses for the second quarter of 1999 were $26.6 million, as compared to $14.5 million in the same quarter of 1998. Certain of the expense increases in the second quarter of 1999 were related to activities in anticipation of the merger with Bay View. Increases in professional services (job) professional services - A department of a supplier providing consultancy and programming manpower for the supplier's products. , occupancy and general administrative expenses include expenses of preparing for "Year 2000" risks, which were expanded in anticipation of the Bay View merger; legal and consulting expenses associated with warehouse line renewals and negotiations, sale of the leasing division and divestiture The breakup of AT&T. By federal court order, AT&T divested itself on January 1, 1984 of its 23 operating companies, which became known as the Regional Bell Operating Companies (RBOCs).  of the company's joint ventures and equity holdings in anticipation of the merger; expenses of the company's golf joint venture, which is in the process of being closed in anticipation of the merger; expenses of FMAC Insurance Services, which was not in existence until the end of the second quarter of 1998; and depreciation and office-related expenses associated with the expansion and moving of several large offices in the later half of 1998.

The provision for losses of $9.9 million in the second quarter of 1999, as compared to $0.6 million in the second quarter of 1998 represents the most significant portion of the increase in total expenses between the two periods. Of this provision, $2.2 million relates to the remaining delinquent delinquent 1) adj. not paid in full amount or on time. 2) n. short for an underage violator of the law as in juvenile delinquent.

The remainder of the provision was related to two loans which are not past due, but are experiencing some reduction in their fixed charge coverage ratios. The company considered an allowance to be prudent in these situations.

FMAC's net loss for the six months ended June 30, 1999 was $116,000, or $0.0 per share, as compared to net income of $17.1 million, or $0.59 per share, for the same period in 1998. Total revenues were $40.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999, down from $53.8 million from the six months ended June 30, 1998. Total expenses were $41.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999, up from $24.3 million for the same period in 1998. A significant portion of the increase in expenses between the two six month periods is attributable to FMAC's acquisition of Banker's Mutual on April 1, 1998.

FMAC's loan production totaled $909 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999, as compared to $942 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998. The decrease is primarily attributable to lagging Lagging

On March 11, 1999, FMAC signed a Definitive Merger Agreement with Bay View. Under the terms of the Definitive Merger Agreement, Bay View will acquire all of the common stock of FMAC for consideration valued at approximately $309 million. Each share of FMAC common stock will be exchanged for a combination of cash and Bay View common stock. The transaction is expected to close at the end of the third quarter or the beginning of the fourth quarter of 1999.
