NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) |
|||||||||
NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
|||||||||
Basis of Presentation: The interim financial data as of March 31, 2001 and for the three month periods ended March 31, 2001 and March 31, 2000 is unaudited; however, in the opinion of Management, the interim data includes all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods. The accompanying financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes included with the Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2000. |
|||||||||
Reclassifications : Certain amounts in the 2000 consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the 2001 presentation. |
|||||||||
Foreign Currency : Assets and liabilities denominated in Canadian dollars are translated into U. S. dollars at rates prevailing on the balance sheet date; income and expenses are translated at average rates of exchange for the period. Unrealized foreign currency translation gains and losses (net of related income taxes) are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income in shareholders' equity. |
|||||||||
Loans Held for Sale: Loans held for sale are stated at the lower of cost or market as of the balance sheet date. |
|||||||||
Derivatives: On January 1, 2001, the Corporation adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." This standard obligates the Corporation to record all derivatives at fair value and permits the Corporation to designate derivative instruments as being used to hedge changes in fair value or changes in cash flows. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that offset changes in cash flows of a hedged item are recorded initially in other comprehensive income. Amounts recorded in other comprehensive income are subsequently reclassified into earnings during the same period the hedged item affects earnings. If a derivative qualifies as a fair value hedge, then changes in the fair value of the hedging derivative are recorded in earnings and are offset by changes in fair value attributable to the hedged risk of the hedged item. Any portion of the changes in the fair value of derivatives designated as a hedge that is deemed ineffective is recorded in earnings along with changes in the fair value of derivatives with no hedge designation. |
|||||||||
The Corporation enters into forward contracts to protect it from interest rate fluctuations from the date of loan commitment until the loans are sold. However, the Corporation has not designated these transactions as hedges to qualify for hedge accounting treatment, and therefore, the Corporation is required to mark the derivatives to market every accounting period. |
|||||||||
The initial application of SFAS No. 133 resulted in a cumulative change in accounting principle net of income taxes of $175,000, did not have a significant impact on other comprehensive income, and had the following impact on the Company's assets and liabilities as of January 1, 2001 (in millions): |
|||||||||
Increase in fair value of derivatives classified as assets .... $ 1.3 |
|||||||||
Increase in fair value of derivatives classified as liabilities... $ 1.0 |
|||||||||
The adoption of SFAS No. 133 resulted in the recognition of derivative-related assets, and derivative-related liabilities. |
|||||||||
Commitments to originate loans: The Company enters into commitments to originate loans whereby the interest rate on the loan is determined prior to funding (rate lock commitments). Rate lock commitments on loans that are intended to be sold are considered to be derivatives and are therefore recorded at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in earnings. For purposes of determining their fair value, the Company performs a net present value analysis of the anticipated cash flows associated with the rate lock commitments. Included in the net present value analysis are anticipated cash flows associated with the retained servicing of the loans. Rate lock commitments expose the Company to interest rate risk. The Company manages this risk by acquiring forward sales contracts. |
|||||||||
Hedges of loans held for sale: Loans held for sale expose the Company to interest rate risk. The Company manages the interest rate risk associated with loans held for sale by entering into forward sales agreements. |
|||||||||
Trading Assets : Trading assets are stated at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses are included in earnings. Included in trading assets are interest-only strips. When the Corporation sells receivables in securitizations of residential mortgage loans, it retains interest-only strips, one or more subordinated tranches, servicing rights, and in some cases a cash reserve account, all of which are retained interests in the securitized receivables. Gain or loss on the sale of the receivables depends in part on the previous carrying amount of the financial assets involved in the transfer, allocated between the assets sold and the retained interests based on their relative fair value at the date of transfer. To obtain fair value, quoted market prices are used if available. However, quotes are generally not available for retained interests, so the Corporation generally estimates fair value based on the present value of expected cash flows using management's best estimates of the key assumptions that market participants would use - prepayment speeds, credit losses, forward yield curves, and discount rates commensurate with the risks involved. Adjustments to carrying values are recorded as trading gains or losses. |
|||||||||
Recent Accounting Developments : In September 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 140, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities." SFAS No. 140, which replaces SFAS No. 125, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities," provides accounting and reporting standards for securitizations and other transfers of assets. The Standard is based on the application of a financial components approach that focuses on control, and provides consistent standards for distinguishing transfers of financial assets that are sales from transfers that are secured borrowings. The Standard requires disclosure of information about securitized assets, including principal outstanding of securitized and other managed assets, accounting policies, key assumptions related to the determination of the fair value of retained interests, delinquencies and credit losses. The accounting requirements of the Standard are effective for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of liabilities occurring after March 31, 2001, and must be applied prospectively. |
|||||||||
The disclosures related to securitization transactions are required for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2000, and comparative disclosures for prior periods are not required. The Corporation does not expect the impact of the accounting requirements of the Standard to be material to its financial position or results of operations in future periods. |

Securities which the Corporation has the positive intent and ability to hold until maturity are classified as "held-to-maturity" and are stated at cost adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount. Securities that might be sold prior to maturity are classified as "available-for-sale" and are stated at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities, net of the future tax impact, are reported as a separate component of shareholders' equity until realized. |

NOTE 10 -- CONTINGENCIES |
|||||||||
In the normal course of business, Irwin Financial Corporation and its subsidiaries are subject to various claims and other pending and possible legal actions. |
|||||||||
Irwin Mortgage Corporation (IMC) is a defendant in a class action lawsuit relating to IMC's payment of broker fees to mortgage brokers. On June 15, 2001, IMC's appeal on the issue of class certification was denied by a panel of the United States Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit. On July 11, 2001, IMC filed a motion for a rehearing before the Court of Appeals on the class certification issue. Although the Corporation has not yet formed a reasonable estimate of the amount of potential loss, if any, that the Corporation could suffer, it is expected that an adverse outcome in this litigation could have a material adverse effect on the Corporation's financial condition and results of operations. |
|||||||||
Irwin Leasing Corporation (formerly Affiliated Capital Corp.), Irwin Equipment Finance Corporation and Irwin Financial Corporation (collectively, "the Irwin Companies") are defendants in an action relating to alleged misrepresentations made to obtain Medicare reimbursement for treatments performed with medical equipment financed by the Irwin Companies. The Irwin Companies filed a motion to dismiss on February 12, 2001 in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania. Because the case is in the early stages of litigation, the Corporation is unable at this time to form a reasonable estimate of the amount of potential loss, if any, that the Corporation could suffer. |
|||||||||
Irwin Union Bank and Trust Company and Irwin Home Equity Corporation (collectively "Irwin") are defendants in a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Rhode Island, which seeks certification as a class action and alleges that Irwin's disclosures and closing procedure for certain home equity loans did not comply with the Truth in Lending Act. Because the case has only recently been filed, the Corporation has not formed a reasonable estimate of the amount of potential loss, if any, that the Corporation could suffer. |
|||||||||

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Management's discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the accompanying consolidated financial statements and footnotes. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that are based on management's expectations, estimates, projections and assumptions. Words such as "expected," "assumptions," "estimate" and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, which include, but are not limited to, projections of business strategies and future activities. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve uncertainties that are difficult to predict. Actual future results may differ materially from what is projected due to a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, unexpected changes in interest rates or in the economies served by the Corporation, competition from other financial service providers, unanticipated difficulties in expanding the Corporation's businesses, such as higher than expected entry costs in new markets, availability of appropriate investment opportunities, fluctuations in the valuation of the Corporation's portfolios, legislative or regulatory changes, or governmental changes in monetary or fiscal policy.
Overview
Net income for the first quarter ended March 31, 2001, was $9.2 million, up 8.1% from the first quarter 2000 net income of $8.5 million.

Irwin Home Equity, in combination with the related activities of Irwin Union Bank (together, the home equity line of business), originates and services home equity and first mortgage loans nationwide through direct mail and telemarketing, broker and correspondent channels, acquisition channels and Internet-based solicitations.
Net income for the home equity lending business was $3.4 million during the first quarter of 2001. These results are compared to 2000 first quarter net income of $2.6 million.
Net interest revenue-unsold loans and other was $4.9 million higher in first quarter 2001 compared to first quarter 2000, representing a 191.8% increase. I/O strip interest income increased 176.8% to $7.2 million for the first quarter 2001 compared to 2000. These increases are a result of increased loan production and sales during 2001 compared to 2000.
During the first quarter of 2001, home equity loan and line of credit originations totaled $180.7 million, compared with $97.2 million in originations in first quarter 2000. Loan acquisitions totaled $0.1 million during the first quarter 2001 compared to $99.3 million in home equity loans which were acquired from other prime credit, high loan-to-value lenders in 2000.
Gains from the securitization of loans totaled $12.6 million in the first quarter of 2001, up 96.6% from the first quarter 2000. The company sold $183.3 million of product in the first quarter of 2001, versus $131.6 million during first quarter 2000. The gain from securitizations as a percentage of loans sold was 6.85% in the first quarter of 2001 versus 4.85% in the same period a year earlier, principally reflecting an improvement in the overall economics of the transaction. These improvements include a higher mix of loans originated with prepayment protection, a higher risk-adjusted interest rate on the underlying collateral, a lower relative acquisition cost structure due to continued expansion of new distribution channels, an ability to sell a portion of the residual interest at inception of the transaction, and otherwise improved excess spread. Furthermore, the results include a slight change in estimate resulting from the introduction of loss frequency curves which replaced previously utilized static loss assumptions. The introduction of loss frequency curves, which may result in a corresponding lower unrealized gain/loss over time, was made to conform valuations with the observed behavior of the loans.

The home equity lending business services the loans it has securitized and collects an annual fee of up to 1% of the outstanding principal balance of the securitized loans. The managed portfolio included in the schedule above includes all loans being serviced by the home equity lending business for which the company retains risk of ownership. Also included in the table above is the portfolio of loans serviced by the company including loans for which the underlying residual interest has been sold to an independent third party. Net servicing fee income totaled $2.4 million in the first quarter of 2001, up 116.6% from the same period in 2000. The increase is primarily due to growth in the servicing portfolio.
The securitization of loans into the secondary market results in the creation of a residual asset which we refer to as an interest-only strip. This interest-only strip is equal to the discounted future cash flows of the interest paid by borrowers less servicing fees, expected losses, third party fees and interest paid to investors. Interest-only strips are carried on the balance sheet as a trading asset and recorded at their estimated fair values determined using assumptions about the duration and performance of the securitized loans. At March 31, 2001, the weighted average assumptions used in the valuation of the interest-only strips were as follows:

Unpaid Principal balance |
Weighted avg. carrying speed (CPR) |
Remaining weighted avg. life (years) |

Included in income during the first quarter of 2001 was an unrealized trading loss of $69 thousand recorded to adjust the carrying value of interest-only strips to their fair values. This loss compares with a $3.4 million gain recorded in the first quarter of 2000. The decline in 2001 is primarily due to the declining interest rate environment and the refinement in loss estimates noted above.
Operating expenses were $29.0 million in the first quarter of 2001, up 96.8% from 2000, reflecting the growth in the company's managed portfolio and growth in production. Salaries and employee benefits increased $9.9 million compared to first quarter 2000 related to the growth of the line of business. Also, included in this increase is $5.4 million in compensation to certain minority owners at the home equity lending line of business. Marketing and development costs at the home equity line of business declined $3.2 million in the first quarter of 2001 compared to first quarter 2000 related primarily to decreased direct mailing costs as a result of product channel diversification.

Irwin Mortgage Corporation, in combination with the related activities of Irwin Union Bank, (together, the mortgage banking line of business) originates, purchases, sells, and services conventional and government agency backed (i.e., FHA and VA) residential mortgage loans throughout the United States.
Net income from mortgage banking for the first quarter was $6.3 million, up 155.1% from the same period in 2000. This increase relates to increased production as a result of a declining interest rate environment. Mortgage loan interest rates were, on average, 140 basis points lower in the first quarter of 2001 compared to the same quarter in 2000.
As a result of the declining interest rate environment, mortgage loan originations of $1.9 billion were 119.3% ahead of the first quarter of 2000. Refinanced loans accounted for 56.2% of first quarter production, compared with 13.9% in the same period a year ago. Higher production volume caused mortgage loan origination income to increase 54.1% in the first quarter to $11.4 million. Because certain fees are not collected for loan refinancings, loan origination fees did not increase at the same rate as loan production during the first quarter of 2001.
As a result of higher loan production in the first quarter of 2001, gains on the sales of loans increased 67.2% to $18.1 million.
Net interest income during the first quarter of 2001 declined 48.8% compared to the same period in 2000 to $3.2 million. Included in first quarter 2000 interest income was $3.0 million related to interest earned pursuant to a refund of federal income taxes due the company relating to a prior period tax return. Excluding the impact of the tax refund in 2000, net interest income for the first quarter of 2001 was comparable to the same period in 2000.
Mortgage loan servicing fees totaled $12.6 million for the first quarter of 2001, a decrease of $0.8 million or 6.0%. The servicing portfolio totaled $9.3 billion at March 31, 2001, an increase of 1.4% from December 31, 2000 and a decrease of 11.3% compared to March 31, 2000.
Mortgage servicing assets totaled $133.0 million at March 31, 2001, up 9.4% from December 31, 2000. The mortgage banking line of business has followed a strategy to manage the interest rate risk associated with the servicing portfolio by selling servicing rights on those loans that are most likely to refinance as interest rates decline. During the first quarter of 2001, the line of business sold servicing rights to help manage its investment in the portfolio and to monetize existing gains in its servicing portfolio. The business recognized revenues of $2.1 million in the first quarter of 2001 from these sales, up from $0.3 million in the first quarter of 2000.
The amortization and impairment of servicing assets, net of hedging gains, of $3.5 million in the first quarter of 2001 represents a decline of 37.6% compared to the same period in 2000. Included in the 2001 amount was a $3.3 million trading gain on hedging activities related to the mortgage servicing assets. There were no trading gains or losses recorded in the first quarter of 2000. During the first quarter of 2001, the company restratified its mortgage servicing asset for impairment purposes, as a result of changing predominate risk characteristics of the portfolio. This restratification was driven by a change in portfolio mix and greater weighting towards government servicing.
Salaries and employee benefits increased 25.2% to $22.4 million for the first quarter of 2001 reflecting the company's increased production during the period. Other operating expenses also increased 8.6% in the first quarter 2001 as a result of higher production.
The corporation adopted SFAS 133 on January 1, 2001. Adoption of this pronouncement resulted in a transition adjustment at the mortgage banking line of business of $0.2 million, which was recorded as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle.

Commercial banking activities are conducted by Irwin Union Bank and Trust Company and Irwin Union Bank, F.S.B. (together, the "commercial bank"). In recent years, the commercial bank has implemented a growth plan that calls for expansion into new markets outside of its traditional markets in south-central Indiana using de novo offices staffed by senior commercial loan officers who have experience with other commercial banks. As a result, the commercial bank currently operates in nine counties in Indiana as well as Kalamazoo, Grandville (Grand Rapids), Lansing and Traverse City, Michigan; Brentwood (St. Louis), Missouri; Las Vegas and Carson City, Nevada; Phoenix, Arizona; and Salt Lake City, Utah.
Net income for the commercial bank decreased in the first quarter to $1.4 million from $1.9 million a year earlier. Net interest income improved 14.5% to $10.3 million in the first quarter of 2001. This decrease in net income and the increase in net interest income relate primarily to the commercial bank's continued growth in new markets. The provision for loan losses increased 80.2% to $0.8 million in the first quarter compared with a provision of $0.4 million a year earlier. This increase is also a result of the company's growth.
Following is an analysis of net interest income and net interest margin computed on a tax-equivalent basis:

Interest margins during 2001 have declined as shown above compared to 2000. Net interest margin was 3.70% for the first quarter 2001 compared to 4.65% in the same period a year earlier. The reduction in net interest margin is due to a combination of three factors. First, the expansion activities at the commercial bank have resulted in an increased use of wholesale deposit sources required to fund the growth in the loan portfolio. Secondly, in mid-2000 the parent company began allocating interest-bearing capital to the commercial bank. Last, the commercial bank was negatively impacted by repricing of approximately 40% of its commercial loan portfolio which is tied to the Prime rate in advance of corresponding declines in its funding base which is more closely tied to LIBOR and similar market-driven rate indices.
Other income in the first quarter was up 4.6% to $3.1 million from $2.9 million in the first quarter of 2000. Total operating expenses, including salaries and benefits, increased 22.5% from the first quarter of 2000 to $10.3 million. The continued expansion of operations in new markets led to increased non-interest expense in 2001.
Equipment Leasing
During 1999, the Corporation formed a new leasing subsidiary, Irwin Business Finance. The company began lease originations in early 2000. On July 14, 2000, the Corporation completed its acquisition of a 78% ownership position in Onset Capital Corporation, a Canadian small-ticket equipment leasing company. Irwin Business Finance and Onset Capital Corporation, together with the related activities of Irwin Union Bank, form the leasing line of business.
During the first quarter of 2001, the leasing line of business incurred a pre-tax loss of $0.7 million, compared to a pre-tax loss of $0.9 million in the first quarter of 2000. These losses reflect expenses related to staffing, systems
development and portfolio growth initiatives in excess of portfolio revenue. Total loan and lease receivables originated during the first quarter of 2001 were $33.9 million, which more than doubled first quarter 2000 production of $16.0 million. The
total loan and lease portfolio totaled $170.7 million at March 31, 2001.

Venture Capital
Irwin Ventures LLC, is a venture capital company which makes minority investments in early-stage financial services-related businesses. During the first quarter of 2001 the venture capital line of business recorded a net loss of $1.4 million which resulted principally from a valuation adjustment to one of its portfolio investments. This compares with net income of $4.3 million in the first quarter of 2000 which was primarily the result of an upward valuation adjustment to the same portfolio company. Venture capital investments held by Irwin Ventures are carried at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in other income.
At March 31, 2001, the business had investments in the following companies:

Parent Company (including consolidating entries)
For the quarter ended March 31, 2001, the parent company recorded net income of $0.2 million compared with a net loss of $1.9 million a year earlier. The parent company recorded $0.3 million of income tax benefit related to Irwin Business Finance for the quarter ended March 31, 2001 and March 31, 2000. The parent company will continue to record tax benefits resulting from the operating losses of Irwin Business Finance until such time as Irwin Business Finance becomes profitable and utilizes all of its operating loss carryforwards.
Parent company operating results improved in 2001 versus 2000 as a result of allocations made by the parent company to its subsidiaries of $2.3 million in interest expense related to interest-bearing capital obligations of the parent company. During the first quarter of 2000, these expenses were not allocated by the parent to the subsidiaries.
Consolidated Income Statement Analysis
Net interest income for the first quarter of 2001 totaled $29.1 million, up $10.0 million or 52.3% from the first quarter of 2000. The increase was due primarily to increased loans and interest-only strips outstanding at the home equity line of business which accounted for $9.3 million of the $10.0 million increase.
The loan and lease loss provision was $1.6 million for the first quarter of 2001, as compared with $1.1 million for the same period in 2000. The provision related related primarily to the commercial bank and the equipment leasing lines of business. See the section on credit risk for additional information on the loan loss provision.
Noninterest income was up 23.8% to $62.1 million in the first quarter of 2001. The first quarter increase was primarily a result of increased revenues at the mortgage line of business as a result of the lower interest rate environment which increased loan production activity. Included in the "other" component of noninterest income was the fair value adjustments made at the venture capital line of business in both the first quarter of 2000 and 2001.
Other expenses increased 38.7% in the first quarter of 2001 to $74.8 million. This increase relates to increased production and implementation of growth strategies at each of the Corporation's lending and leasing lines of business.
The effective income tax rate for the Corporation was 39.1% during the first quarter of 2001. This is compared with 40.1% in the first quarter of 2000.
Consolidated Balance Sheet Analysis
Total assets of the Corporation at March 31, 2001, were $2.9 billion, up from December 31, 2000 total assets of $2.4 billion. The increase in total assets was due to growth in loans held for sale at the mortgage bank of $0.3 billion and growth in loans at the commercial bank of $0.1 billion. The increase in assets was accompanied by an increase in deposits at the commercial bank of $0.3 billion. A portion of noninterest bearing deposits is associated with escrow accounts held on loans in the servicing portfolio of Irwin Mortgage. These escrow accounts totaled $289.7 million at March 31, 2001, up from $145.3 million at December 31, 2000.
Shareholders' equity grew to $198.2 million as of March 31, 2001, an increase of 4.4% over year-end 2000 shareholders' equity of $189.9 million. Shareholders' equity as of March 31, 2001 represented $9.30 per common share, an increase of 3.7% compared to December 31, 2000. The Corporation's equity to assets ratio ended the quarter at 6.92% compared to 7.84% at the end of 2000.
Credit Risk
The assumption of credit risk is a key source of earnings for the home equity lending, commercial banking and equipment leasing lines of business. In addition, the mortgage banking business assumes some credit risk despite the fact that its mortgages are typically insured.
The credit risk in the loan portfolios of the home equity lending business and commercial bank have the most potential to have a significant effect on consolidated financial performance. These lines of business manage credit risk through the use of lending policies, credit analysis and approval procedures, periodic loan reviews, and personal contact with borrowers. Loans over a certain size are reviewed by a loan committee prior to approval.
An allowance for loan losses is established as an estimate of the probable credit losses on the loans held by the Corporation. A specific allowance is determined by evaluating those loans which are either substandard or have the potential to become substandard. In general, commercial loans, mortgage loans, and leases are evaluated individually to determine the appropriate allowance. Consumer loans, including home equity loans, are generally evaluated as a group. A specific allowance is set at a level which management considers sufficient to cover probable losses on these loans. A general allowance is determined by analyzing historical loss experience by loan type and then adjusting these loss factors for current conditions not reflected in prior experience. The allowance for loan losses is an estimate which is based on management's judgement combined with a quantitative process of evaluation and analysis. For interest-only strips, a loss estimate is embedded in the discounted residual value of the asset, and therefore there is no amount included in the allowance.
Loans and leases that are determined by management to be uncollectible are charged against the allowance. The allowance is increased by provisions against income and recoveries of loans and leases previously charged off. As of March 31, 2001, the allowance for loan and lease losses as a percentage of total loans and leases was 1.03% compared to 1.06% at December 31, 2000.
Net charge-offs in the first quarter of 2001 were $1.0 million, compared to $0.3 million in the first quarter of 2000. Higher net charge-offs in 2001 relate to the loan growth at the commercial bank and charge-offs at Onset Capital Corporation. Onset was acquired by Irwin in July 2000 and had an existing portfolio of leases.
Total nonperforming loans and leases at March 31, 2001 were $7.3 million, relatively unchanged from year-end. Nonperforming loans and leases as a percent of total loans and leases were 0.56% at March 31, 2001, compared to 0.58% at the end of 2000. Other real estate owned totaled $4.3 million at March 31, 2001, up from $2.8 million at December 31, 2000, an increase primarily attributable to the home equity lending line of business. Total nonperforming assets were $11.6 million, or 0.41% of total assets at March 31, 2001, as compared to $10.1 million, or 0.42%, at year-end 2000.

Derivative Financial Instruments
The Corporation utilizes certain derivative instruments which do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment under SFAS No. 133.
The Corporation economically hedges its interest rate risk on mortgage loans held for sale using mandatory commitments to sell the loans at a future date. Certain of the Corporation's interest-only strips are
hedged using interest rate caps which had a fair value of $0.1 million and a notional amount of $21.1 million at March 31, 2001. Interest rate caps are classified as trading securities on the balance sheet and carried at their fair values. Adjustments
to fair values are recorded as trading gains or losses on the income statement. In the first quarter of 2001, the Corporation recorded a $0.1 million loss related to these derivative products. This compares to a gain of $3.4 million in the first quarter
of 2000.
The Corporation also engaged in economically hedging its mortgage servicing rights through the use of Eurodollar and U.S. Treasury futures contracts. For the first quarter, the Corporation experienced $0.1 million of realized gains and $3.2 million of unrealized gains on these economic hedges. The notional value of U.S. Treasury futures contracts outstanding at March 31, 2001 was $4.9 billion. The Corporation did not hold any US Treasury futures at March 31, 2001. The futures contracts were marked-to-market as trading securities with changes in value recorded in the income statement.
Onset Capital Corporation uses two interest rate swaps to reduce repricing risk associated with a funding source. The interest rate risk is created due to a repricing mismatch between the fixed-rate payment stream from leasing assets and
floating rate funding. The notional amounts of the swaps were $28.0 million and $29.1 million as of March 31, 2001. The notional values of both interest rate swaps amortize on a schedule designed to approximate the principal pay down of the loan
portfolio, and has a final maturity date of May 25, 2004. Onset can reduce the notional value of the swaps by up to 10% if prepayments on the loans are greater than originally anticipated.
The Corporation has foreign currency contracts to protect the value of intercompany loans made to Onset Capital against changes in the exchange rate. The Corporation had a notional amount of $14.7 million in forward contracts outstanding as of March 31, 2001. Gains and losses associated with these contracts are included in other expense on the income statement.
Liquidity
Liquidity is the availability of funds to meet the daily requirements of the Corporation's business. For financial institutions, demand for funds results principally from extensions of credit and withdrawal of deposits. Liquidity is provided by
asset maturities or sales and through deposits and short-term borrowings.
The objectives of liquidity management are to ensure that funds will be available to meet current demands and that funds are available at a reasonable cost. Liquidity is managed by the parent company via daily interaction with the lines of
business and periodic liquidity planning sessions.
Since loans are less marketable than securities, the ratio of total loans to total deposits is a traditional measure of liquidity for banks and bank holding companies. At March 31, 2001, the ratio of loans and loans held for sale to total deposits
was 119.2%. The Corporation is comfortable with this relatively high level due to its position in mortgage loans held for sale. These loans carry an interest rate at or near current market rates for first and second lien mortgage loans. Since the
Corporation securitizes and sells nearly all these mortgage loans within a 90-day period, our liquidity is significantly higher than the ratio would suggest by traditional standards. Excluding mortgage loans held for sale, the loan-to-deposit ratio is
72.4% at March 31, 2001.

OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
On May 9, 2001, Irwin Union Bank and Trust Company and Irwin Home Equity Corporation (collectively "Irwin") received notice that they were named as defendants in Thompson v. Irwin Union Bank and Trust Company and Irwin Home Equity Corporation , a lawsuit filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Rhode Island. The suit alleges that Irwin's disclosures and closing procedure for certain home equity loans did not comply with certain provisions of the Truth in Lending Act. The suit also requests that the court certify a plaintiff class in this action. On June 18, Irwin filed a motion with the court to compel arbitration pursuant to the provisions in the home equity loan agreement. Because the case has only recently been filed, the Corporation has not formed a reasonable estimate of the amount of potential loss, if any, that the Corporation could suffer.
On June 15, 2001, a panel of the United States Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit denied the appeal of Irwin Mortgage Corporation ("IMC") (formerly Inland Mortgage Corporation), and upheld the trial court's certification of a limited class of borrowers in Culpepper, et. al v. Inland Mortgage Corporation. This lawsuit was filed against IMC in April, 1996, in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Alabama. The suit alleges that IMC violated the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (RESPA) in connection with certain payments IMC made to mortgage brokers. The decision allowing the class certification to stand does not conclude the lawsuit or otherwise establish liability. On July 11, 2001, IMC filed a motion seeking a rehearing before the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals and will continue to vigorously defend this lawsuit. Although the Corporation is unable at this stage of the litigation to determine a reasonable estimate of potential losses, it is expected that an adverse outcome in this litigation could have a material adverse effect on the Corporation's financial condition and results of operations.
Item 5. Market for Corporation's Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters
On January 2, 2001 the Corporation issued 2,898 shares of common stock pursuant to elections made by nine outside directors of the Corporation to receive board compensation under the 1999 Outside Director Restricted Stock Compensation Plan in lieu of cash fees.
All of these shares were issued in reliance on the private placement exemption from registration provided in section 4(2) of the Securities Act.
