Michigan; Davison State Bank in Davison, Michigan; and West Michigan Community Bank in Hudsonville,
Michigan (the Banks), as well as Fentura Mortgage Company, West Michigan Mortgage Company, LLC,
and the other subsidiaries of the Banks. Intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in
consolidation.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial
information and the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they
do not include all of the information and notes required by accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of
management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a
fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2007
are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31,
2007. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto
included in the Corporations annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.
Reclassifications: Some items in the prior year financial statements were reclassified to
conform to the current presentation.
Allowance for Loan Losses: The allowance for loan losses is a valuation allowance for
probable incurred credit losses, increased by the provision for loan losses and decreased by
charge-offs less recoveries. Management estimates the allowance balance required using past loan
loss experience, the nature and volume of the portfolio, information about specific borrower
situations and estimated collateral values, 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 managements judgment, should be charged-off. Loan losses are charged against the
allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed.
A loan is impaired when full payment under the loan terms is not expected. Impairment is evaluated
in total for smaller-balance loans of similar nature such as residential mortgage, consumer, and
credit card loans, and on an individual loan basis for other loans. If a loan is impaired, a
portion of the allowance is
7
allocated so that the loan is reported, net, at the present value of estimated future cash flows
using the loans existing rate or at the fair value of collateral if repayment is expected solely
from the collateral.
Stock Option Plans
The Nonemployee Director Stock Option Plan provides for granting options to nonemployee directors
to purchase the Corporations common stock. No options have been granted in 2007. The purchase
price of the shares is the fair market value at the date of the grant, and there is a three-year
vesting period before options may be exercised. Options to acquire no more than 8,131 shares of
stock may be granted under the Plan in any calendar year and options to acquire not more than
73,967 shares in the aggregate may be outstanding at any one time.
The Employee Stock Option Plan grants options to eligible employees to purchase the Corporations
common stock at or above, the fair market value of the stock at the date of the grant. Awards
granted under this plan are limited to an aggregate of 86,936 shares. The administrator of the
plan is a committee of directors. The administrator has the power to determine the number of
options to be granted, the exercise price of the options and other terms of the options, subject to
consistency with the terms of the Plan.
The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using a closed form option
valuation (Black-Scholes) model that uses the assumptions noted in the table below. Expected
volatilities are based on historical volatilities of the Corporations common stock. The
Corporation uses historical data to estimate option exercise and post-vesting termination behavior.
(Employee and management options are tracked separately.) The expected term of options granted is
based on historical data and represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be
outstanding, which takes into account that the options are not transferable. The risk-free
interest rate for the expected term of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in
effect at the time of the grant. Shares are issued upon option exercise come from authorized but
unissued shares.

Effect of Newly Issued Accounting Standards
We adopted FASB Interpretation 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (FIN48), as of
January 1, 2007. A tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is more likely than not
that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being
presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than
50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the more likely than
not test, no tax benefit is recorded. The adoption had no affect on our financial statements.
We and our subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal income tax, as well as, single business tax of
the state of Michigan. We are no longer subject to examination by federal taxing authorities for
years before 2002, and are no longer subject to examination by state taxing authorities for years
before 2001. We do not expect the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits to significantly
increase in the next twelve months.
Effect of Newly Issued but not yet Effective Accounting Standards
In February 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement No. 159, The
Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Liabilities. Adoption of this statement is required for
January 1, 2008. Early adoption was allowed, effective to January 1, 2007, if that election was
made by April 30, 2007. This statement allows, but does not require, companies to record certain
assets and liabilities at their fair value. The fair value determination is made at the instrument
level, so similar assets and liabilities could be partially accounted for using the historical cost
method, while other similar assets or liabilities are accounted for using the fair value method.
Changes in fair value are recorded through the income statement in subsequent periods. The
statement provides for a one time opportunity to transfer existing assets and liabilities to fair
value at the point of adoption with a cumulative effect adjustment recorded against equity. After
adoption, the election to report assets or liabilities at fair value must be made at the point of
their inception. We have not yet determined which, if any, assets or liabilities we may determine
to report using the fair value accounting method. As such, we have not determined the impact that
the adoption of this statement may have on our financial statement. We recognize interest and/or
penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. We did not have any amounts accrued
for interest and penalties at January 1, 2007.

Note 3. Commitments and Contingencies
There are various contingent liabilities that are not reflected in the financial statements
including claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of
management, after consultation with legal counsel, the ultimate disposition of these matters is not
expected to have a material effect on the Corporations consolidated financial condition or results
of operations.

ITEM 2 MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
Results of Operations
Certain of the Corporations accounting policies are important to the portrayal of the
Corporations financial condition, since they require management to make difficult, complex or
subjective judgments, some of which may relate to matters that are inherently uncertain. Estimates
associated with these policies are susceptible to material changes as a result of changes in facts
and circumstances. Facts and circumstances, which could affect these judgments, include, but
without limitation, changes in interest rates, in the performance of the economy or in the
financial condition of borrowers. Management believes that its critical accounting policies include
determining the allowance for loan losses and determining the fair value of securities and other
financial instruments.
As indicated in the income statement, earnings for the three months ended March 31, 2007 were
$948,000 compared to $1,207,000 for the same period in 2006. Net interest income in the first
quarter of 2007, was significantly below net interest income for the same quarter in 2006. This is
primarily due to a 21.3% increase in interest expense. The increase in interest expense was
partially offset by loan growth which produced a 3.5% increase in interest income. Additionally, a
modest increase in non-interest income and a modest decrease in non-interest expense for the first
quarter of 2007 comprised the first quarter earnings. The provision for loan loss was up $39,000
comparing the first quarter of 2007 to the same quarter in 2006. Management feels the provision is
adequate and the allowance for loan losses has increased $270,000 when comparing March 2007 to
March 2006. The Corporation continues to focus on core banking activities and new opportunities in
current and surrounding markets.
The banking industry uses standard performance indicators to help evaluate a banking institutions
performance. Return on average assets is one of these indicators. For the three months ended March
31, 2007, the Corporations return on average assets (annualized) was 0.62% compared to 0.79% for
the same period in 2006. Net income per share, adjusted for the 10% stock dividend paid on August
4, 2006, basic was $0.44 and diluted was $0.44 in the first three months of 2007 compared to
$0.57 net income per share basic and $0.56 net income per diluted share for the same period in
2006.
Net Interest Income
Net interest income and average balances and yields on major categories of interest-earning assets
and interest-bearing liabilities for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 are summarized
in Table 2. The effects of changes in average interest rates and average balances are detailed in
Table 1 below.

As indicated in Table 1, during the three months ended March 31, 2007, net interest income
decreased compared to the same period in 2006, principally because of the increase in deposit and
borrowing interest expense. Loan income increased due to higher balances during the first three
months of 2007 compared to the same period in 2006. Interest expense increased compared to the
first three months of 2006 due to the increase in deposit pricing for the Corporation.
Net interest income (displayed with consideration of full tax equivalency), average balance sheet
amounts, and the corresponding yields for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 are shown
in Table 2. Net interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2007 was $5,533,000, a
decrease of $465,000, or 7.8%, over the same period in 2006. Net interest margin decreased due to
higher deposit and borrowing costs during the first three months of 2007. Management has re-priced
deposits to be competitive in the respective markets. Loan pricing has also become very
competitive. While management strives to acquire quality credits with favorable pricing, local
competition has been attempting to drive loan pricing down to adverse levels. Therefore, the Banks
have been compelled not to book some minimally priced loans. Management has also addressed credit
quality issues during the first quarter of 2007. This will be discussed further in the Allowance
and Provision for Loan Loss section.
Management reviews economic forecasts and strategy on a monthly basis. Accordingly, the Corporation
will continue to strategically manage the balance sheet structure in an effort to create stability
in net interest income. The Corporation expects to continue to seek out new loan opportunities
while continuing to maintain sound credit quality.
As indicated in Table 2, for the three months ended March 31, 2007, the Corporations net interest
margin (with consideration of full tax equivalency) was 3.94% compared with 4.26% for the same
period in 2006. This decrease is attributable to the impact of higher deposit and borrowing costs
that outpaced loan repricing.
12
Average earning assets decreased 0.3% or approximately $1,462,000 comparing the three months of
2007 to the same time period in 2006. Loans, the highest yielding component of earning assets,
represented 79.4% of earning assets in 2007 compared to 78.5% in 2006. Average interest bearing
liabilities decreased 0.2% or $745,000 comparing the first three months of 2007 to the same time
period in 2006. Non-interest bearing deposits amounted to 13.3% of average earning assets in the
first three months of 2007 compared with 13.6% in the same time period of 2006.
Management continually monitors the Corporations balance sheet in an effort to insulate net
interest income from significant swings caused by interest rate volatility. If market rates change
in 2007, corresponding changes in funding costs will be considered to avoid the potential negative
impact on net interest income. The Corporations policies in this regard are further discussed in
the section titled Interest Rate Sensitivity Management.

Allowance and Provision For Loan Losses
The Corporation maintains formal policies and procedures to control and monitor credit risk.
Management believes the allowance for loan losses is adequate to provide for probable incurred
losses in the loan portfolio. The Corporations loan portfolio has no significant concentrations in
any one industry or any exposure in foreign loans. The Corporation has not extended credit to
finance highly leveraged transactions nor does it intend to do so in the future. Employment levels
and other economic conditions in the Corporations local markets may have a significant impact on
the level of loan losses. Management continues to identify and devote attention to credits that are
not performing as agreed. Of course, deterioration of economic conditions could have an impact on
the Corporations credit quality, which could impact the need for greater provision for loan losses
and the level of the allowance for loan losses as a percentage of gross loans. Non-performing loans
are discussed further in the section titled Non-Performing Assets.
The allowance for loan losses (ALL) reflects managements judgment as to the level considered
appropriate to absorb probable losses in the loan portfolio. The Corporations subsidiary banks
methodology in determining the adequacy of the ALL relies on several key elements, which include
specific allowances for identified problem loans and a formula-based risk-allocated allowance for
the remainder of the portfolio. This includes a review of individual loans, historical loss
experience, current economic conditions, portfolio trends, and other pertinent factors. The amount
of the provision for loan losses is based on our review of the historical credit loss experience
and such factors that, in our judgment, deserve consideration under existing economic conditions in
estimating probable credit losses. While we consider the allowance for loan losses to be adequate
based on information currently available, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary due
to changes in economic conditions, delinquencies, or loss rates. Although portions of the allowance
have been allocated to various portfolio segments, the ALL is general in nature and is available
for the portfolio in its entirety. At March 31, 2007, the ALL was $6,962,000, or 1.51% of total
loans compared to $6,692,000, or 1.48%, at December 31, 2006, increasing the ALL $270,000 during
the first three months of 2007. Non performing loan levels, discussed later, decreased during the
period and net charge-offs have decreased to $169,000 during the first three months of 2007
compared to $183,000 during the first three months of 2006. Management believes that the allowance
is appropriate given identified risk in the loan portfolio based on asset quality.
Table 3 below summarizes loan losses and recoveries for the first three months of 2007 and 2006.
During the first three months of 2007, the Corporation experienced net charge-offs of $169,000 or .04% of gross loans compared with net charge-offs of $183,000 or .04% of gross loans in the first
three months of 2006. The provision for loan loss was $439,000 in the first three months of 2007
and $400,000 for the same time period in 2006. The year to year increase resulted principally from
the growth in the loan portfolio, charge-offs incurred and the change in economic conditions in the
state of Michigan.

Non-Interest Income
Non-interest income increased during the three months ended March 31, 2007 as compared to the same
period in 2006, primarily due to the increase in service charges on deposits and an increase in
trust and investment income. Overall non-interest income was $1,865,000 for the three months ended
March 31, 2007 compared to $1,797,000 for the same period in 2006. This represents an increase of
3.8%.
The most significant category of non-interest income is service charges on deposit accounts. These
fees were $851,000 in the first three months of 2007 compared to $831,000 for the same period of
2006. This represents an increase of 2.4% from year to year. The increase is attributable to
customer usage of the overdraft privilege product, which enhanced service charge income. Other
service charge categories remained relatively flat from year to year.
Gain on the sale of mortgage loans originated by the Banks and sold into the secondary market
decreased 48.5% to $84,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2007 compared to $163,000 in the
same period in 2006. This notable decrease is a result of slowing mortgage volume and the economic
conditions in the state of Michigan.
Trust, investment and financial planning services income increased $124,000 (32.4%) in the first
three months of 2007 compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase in fees is
attributable to the increase in the amount of assets under management, the increase in investment
services at The State Bank, and an increase in West Michigan Community Bank trust and investment
services fees.
Other operating income increased modestly by $3,000 or 0.71% to $423,000 in the first three months
of 2007 compared to $420,000 in the same time period in 2006. The two categories with the largest
year to year increases were customer service fees, which increased $6,000 from year to year and
income from servicing a non-Fentura family bank. The increase was $14,000 or 57.4% for the first
three months of 2007 compared to the first three months of 2006.
16
Non-Interest Expense
Total non-interest expense decreased 1.3% to $5,496,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2007,
compared with $5,569,000 in the same period of 2006. The decrease was largely in salaries and
benefits. The difference, of about $87,000, was due to staffing changes implemented in the fourth
quarter of 2006. Also, a reduction of $53,000 in other operating expenses from year to year
contributed to the overall decrease. Postage expense and provision for single business tax, due
to earnings, were down when comparing the first three months of 2007 and 2006.
Salary and benefit costs, the Corporations largest non-interest expense category, were $3,247,000
in the first three months of 2007, compared with $3,334,000, or a decrease of 2.6%, for the same
time period in 2006. Decreased costs were a result of staffing changes that had been implemented in
the fourth quarter of 2006, changes to incentive payment plans and conscious management of overtime
salaries.
Occupancy expenses, at $503,000, increased in the three months ended March 31, 2007 compared to the
same period in 2006 by $71,000 or 16.4%. The increases were attributable to the opening or purchase
of two Bank affiliate branches. These expenses were partially offset by decreases in storage
space rentals.
During the three months ended March 31, 2007, furniture and equipment expenses were $525,000
compared to $508,000 for the same period in 2006, an increase of 3.3%. The increases in expenses
were attributable to an increase in equipment depreciation, equipment rental expense, equipment
maintenance expense and non-capitalized purchase expenses. These were partially offset by a
decrease in leasehold depreciation expense as some of our leased properties have neared the end of
their current lease contracts.
Loan and collection expenses, at $91,000, were up $20,000 or 28.2% during the three months ended
March 31, 2007 compared to the same time period in 2006. The increase was primarily attributable
to an increase in other loan expense relating to other real estate. The rise in these expenses is
a result of the unfavorable changing economy in Michigan. We anticipate these expenses to be above
desired levels until the economic situation begins to become more favorable.
Advertising expenses of $112,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2007 decreased 26.8% compared
with $153,000 for the same period in 2006. The decrease was primarily due to reduced spending in
media and promotional expenses. Some of the decreases were offset by increases in donation and
sponsorship activity as well as shareholder communication expenses.
Other operating expenses were $1,018,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2007 compared to
$1,071,000 in the same time period in 2006, a modest decrease of $53,000 or 4.9%. Reduced expenses
of director fees, insurance premiums, publication expenses, interchange expenses and correspondent
bank charges were nearly offset by increases in other categories. Expenses that had notable
increases were business development, customer service expenses, memberships, and other losses.

Financial Condition
Proper management of the volume and composition of the Corporations earning assets and funding
sources is essential for ensuring strong and consistent earnings performance, maintaining adequate
liquidity and limiting exposure to risks caused by changing market conditions. The Corporations
securities portfolio is structured to provide a source of liquidity through maturities and to
generate an income stream with relatively low levels of principal risk. The Corporation does not
engage in securities trading. Loans comprise the largest component of earning assets and are the
Corporations highest yielding assets. Customer deposits are the primary source of funding for
earning assets while short-term debt and other sources of funds could be further utilized if market
conditions and liquidity needs change.
The Corporations total assets were $625 million at March 31, 2007 compared to total assets of $622
million at December 31, 2006. Loans comprised 74.0% of total assets at March 31, 2007 compared to
72.8% at December 31, 2006. Loans grew $8.8 million during the first three months of 2007. The
ratio of non-interest bearing deposits to total deposits was 14.6% at March 31, 2007 and 14.2% at
December 31, 2006. Interest bearing deposit liabilities totaled $453.6 million at March 31, 2007
compared to $453.7 million at December 31, 2006. Total deposits increased $2.8 million with
non-interest bearing demand deposits increasing $2,904,000 and interest bearing deposits decreasing
$110,000. Short-term borrowings decreased $1,050,000 due to the increase in deposits, comparing the
two periods. FHLB advance balances did not change comparing the two periods. Repurchase agreement
balances remained steady comparing the two periods. Repurchase agreements are instruments with
deposit type characteristics, which are secured by government securities. The repurchase agreements
were leveraged against securities to increase net interest income.
Bank premises and equipment increased $2,655,000 to $19.5 million at March 31, 2007 compared to
$16.9 million at December 31, 2006. The increase was due to the completion of construction and the
opening of the branch at one of the Bank subsidiaries and the purchase of a building at another
subsidiary.
Non-Performing Assets
Non-performing assets are assets that have more than a normal risk of loss and include loans on
which interest accruals have ceased, loans that have been renegotiated, and real estate acquired
through foreclosure. Past due loans are loans which are delinquent 90 days or more, but have not
been placed on non-accrual status are also included in this category. Table 4 reflects the levels
of these assets at March 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006.
Non-performing assets increased from December 31, 2006 to March 31, 2007. This increase was
primarily due to increases in non-accrual loans, renegotiated loans, REO in redemption, and other
non-performing assets. REO-in-Redemption balance is comprised of two commercial properties and
five residential properties for a total of $935,000 at March 31, 2007. Marketability of these
properties is dependent on the real estate market. Renegotiated loans increased $198,000 from
December 31, 2006 to a total of $685,000 at March 31, 2007.
The level and composition of non-performing assets are affected by economic conditions in the
Corporations local markets. Non-performing assets, charge-offs, and provisions for loan losses
tend to decline in a strong economy and increase in a weak economy, potentially impacting the
Corporations operating results. In addition to non-performing loans, management carefully monitors
other credits that are current in terms of principal and interest payments but, in managements
opinion, may deteriorate in quality if economic conditions change.

Liquidity and Interest Rate Risk Management
Asset/Liability management is designed to assure liquidity and reduce interest rate risks. The goal
in managing interest rate risk is to maintain a strong and relatively stable net interest margin.
It is the responsibility of the Asset/Liability Management Committee (ALCO) to set policy
guidelines and to establish short-term and long-term strategies with respect to interest rate
exposure and liquidity. The ALCO, which is comprised of key members of management, meets regularly
to review financial performance and soundness, including interest rate risk and liquidity exposure
in relation to present and prospective markets, business conditions, and product lines.
Accordingly, the committee adopts funding and balance sheet management strategies that are intended
to maintain earnings, liquidity, and growth rates consistent with policy and prudent business
standards.
Liquidity maintenance together with a solid capital base and strong earnings performance are key
objectives of the Corporation. The Corporations liquidity is derived from a strong deposit base
comprised of individual and business deposits. Deposit accounts of customers in the mature market
represent a substantial portion of deposits of individuals. The Banks deposit base plus other
funding sources (federal funds purchased, short-term borrowings, FHLB advances, repurchase
agreements, other liabilities and shareholders equity) provided primarily all funding needs in the
first three months of 2007. While these sources of funds are expected to continue to be available
to provide funds in the future, the mix and availability of funds will depend upon future economic
conditions. The Corporation does not foresee any difficulty in meeting its funding requirements.
Primary liquidity is provided through short-term investments or borrowings (including federal funds
sold and purchased) while the securities portfolio provides secondary liquidity. The securities
portfolio has decreased $3.8 million since December 31, 2006 due to the calls and maturities of
securities, pay downs of Mortgage Backed Securities (MBS) and the unexpected pay off of one
municipal investment. The Corporation has decided to invest the excess funds, from the call of
these securities, in the securities and loan portfolios to increase yield and income versus keeping
the excess funds in federal funds sold at a
19
lower yield. The Corporation regularly monitors liquidity to ensure adequate cash flows to cover
unanticipated reductions in the availability of funding sources.
Interest rate risk is managed by controlling and limiting the level of earnings volatility arising
from rate movements. The Corporation regularly performs reviews and analysis of those factors
impacting interest rate risk. Factors include maturity and re-pricing frequency of balance sheet
components, impact of rate changes on interest margin and prepayment speeds, market value impacts
of rate changes, and other issues. Both actual and projected performance are reviewed, analyzed,
and compared to policy and objectives to assure present and future financial viability.
The Corporation had cash flows from financing activities resulting primarily from the decrease of
borrowings and increase of demand and savings deposits. In the first three months of 2007, these
borrowings decreased $1,050,000 while these deposits increased $2,793,000. Cash used by investing
activities was $7,634,000 in first three months of 2007 compared to cash used of $8,824,000 in
first three months of 2006. The change in investing activities was due to the increase in the
origination of loans in the first three months of 2007 compared to the first three months of 2006.
Proceeds from maturities and calls of securities, were nearly offset by acquisition of premises and
equipment in the subsidiary banks, during the first three months of 2007.
Capital Management
Total shareholders equity increased 1.9% to $52,304,000 at March 31, 2007 compared with
$51,318,000 at December 31, 2006. The Corporations equity to asset ratio was 8.4% at March 31,
2007 and 8.2% at December 31, 2006. The increase in the amount of capital resulted primarily from
net income, partially offset by dividends declared.
As indicated on the balance sheet at December 31, 2006, the Corporation had an accumulated other
comprehensive loss of $958,000 compared to accumulated other comprehensive loss at March 31, 2007
of $696,000. The decrease in the loss position is attributable to the fluctuation of the market
price of securities held in the available for sale portfolio.
Regulatory Capital Requirements
Bank holding companies and their bank subsidiaries are required by banking industry regulators to
maintain certain levels of capital. These are expressed in the form of certain ratios. These ratios
are based on the degree of credit risk in the Corporations assets. All assets and off-balance
sheet items such as outstanding loan commitments are assigned risk factors to create an overall
risk-weighted asset total. Capital is separated into two levels, Tier I capital (essentially total
common shareholders equity plus qualifying cumulative preferred securities (limited to 33% of
common equity), less goodwill) and Tier II capital (essentially the allowance for loan losses
limited to 1.25% of gross risk-weighted assets). Capital levels are then measured as a percentage
of total risk weighted assets. The regulatory minimum for Tier I capital to risk weighted assets is
4% and the minimum for Total capital (Tier I plus Tier II) to risk weighted assets is 8%. The Tier
I leverage ratio measures Tier I capital to average assets and must be a minimum of 3%. As
reflected in Table 5, at March 31, 2007 and at December 31, 2006, the Corporation was well in
excess of the minimum capital and leverage requirements necessary to be considered a well
capitalized banking company.
The FDIC has adopted a risk-based insurance premium system based in part on a banks capital
adequacy. Under this system, a depository institution is classified as well capitalized, adequately
capitalized, or undercapitalized according to its regulatory capital levels. Subsequently, a
financial institutions premium levels are based on these classifications and its regulatory
supervisory rating (the higher the classification the lower the premium). It is the Corporations
goal to maintain capital levels sufficient to retain a designation of well capitalized.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
At March 31, 2007, the Banks had outstanding standby letters of credit of $5.6 million and unfunded
loan commitments outstanding of $115.4 million. Because these commitments generally have fixed
expiration dates and many will expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment level does not
necessarily represent future cash requirements. If needed to fund these outstanding commitments,
the Banks have the ability to fund these commitments.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK
The information concerning quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk contained on
page 54 in the Corporations Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, is
incorporated herein by reference.
Fentura Financial, Inc. faces market risk to the extent that both earnings and the fair value of
its financial instruments are affected by changes in interest rates. The Corporation manages this
risk with static GAP analysis and has begun simulation modeling. For the first three months of
2007, the results of these measurement techniques were within the Corporations policy guidelines.
The Corporation does not believe that there has been a material change in the nature of the
Corporations primary market risk exposures, including the categories of market risk to which the
Corporation is exposed and the particular markets that present the primary risk of loss to the
Corporation, or in how those exposures have been managed in 2007 compared to 2006.
The Corporations market risk exposure is mainly comprised of its vulnerability to interest rate
risk. Prevailing interest rates and interest rate relationships in the future will be primarily
determined by market factors, which are outside of the Corporations control. All information
provided in this section consists of forward-looking statements. Reference is made to the section
captioned Forward Looking Statements in this quarterly report for a discussion of the limitations
on the Corporations responsibility for such statements.
Interest Rate Sensitivity Management
Interest rate sensitivity management seeks to maximize net interest income as a result of changing
interest rates, within prudent ranges of risk. The Corporation attempts to accomplish this
objective by structuring the balance sheet so that re-pricing opportunities exist for both assets
and liabilities in roughly equivalent amounts at approximately the same time intervals. Imbalances
in these re-pricing opportunities at any
21
point in time constitute a banks interest rate sensitivity. The Corporation currently does not
utilize derivatives in managing interest rate risk.
An indicator of the interest rate sensitivity structure of a financial institutions balance sheet
is the difference between rate sensitive assets and rate sensitive liabilities, and is referred to
as GAP. Table 6 sets forth the distribution of re-pricing of the Corporations earning assets and
interest bearing liabilities as of March 31, 2007, the interest rate sensitivity GAP, as defined
above, the cumulative interest rate sensitivity GAP, the interest rate sensitivity GAP ratio (i.e.
interest rate sensitive assets divided by interest rate sensitive liabilities) and the cumulative
sensitivity GAP ratio. The table also sets forth the time periods in which earning assets and
liabilities will mature or may re-price in accordance with their contractual terms.

As indicated in Table 6, the short-term (one year and less) cumulative interest rate
sensitivity gap is negative. Accordingly, if market interest rates continue to increase, this
negative gap position could have a short-term negative impact on interest margin. Conversely, if
market rates decline this should theoretically have a short-term positive impact. However, gap
analysis is limited and may not provide an accurate indication of the impact of general interest
rate movements on the net interest margin since the re-pricing of various categories of assets and
liabilities is subject to the Corporations needs, competitive pressures, and the needs of the
Corporations customers. In addition, various assets and liabilities indicated as re-pricing within
the same period may in fact re-price at different times within such period and at different rate
volumes. These limitations are evident when considering the Corporations Gap position at March 31,
2007 and the change in net interest margin for the three months ended March 31, 2007 compared to
the same time period in 2006. At March 31, 2007, the Corporation was negatively gapped through one
year and since that time interest rates have stayed steady. Further, net interest margin decreased
when the first three months of 2007 is compared to the same period in 2006. This occurred
22
because certain deposit categories, specifically interest bearing demand, savings deposits and new
certificates of deposits, re-priced at the same time but not at the same level as the asset
portfolios resulting in a decrease in net interest margin. In addition to GAP analysis, the
Corporation, as part of managing interest rate risk, also performs simulation modeling, which
measures the impact of upward and downward movements of interest rates on interest margin and the
market value of equity. Assuming continued success at achieving repricing of loans to higher rates
at a faster pace than repricing of deposits, simulation modeling indicates that an upward movement
of interest rates could have a positive impact on net interest income. Because management believes
that it should be able to continue these repricing relationships, it anticipates improved
performance in net interest margin as a result of a rising interest rate environment.
Forward Looking Statements
This report includes forward-looking statements as that term is used in the securities laws. All
statements regarding our expected financial position, business and strategies are forward-looking
statements. In addition, the words anticipates, believes, estimates, seeks, expects,
plans, intends, and similar expressions, as they relate to us or our management, are intended
to identify forward-looking statements. The presentation and discussion of the provision and
allowance for loan losses and statements concerning future profitability or future growth or
increases, are examples of inherently forward looking statements in that they involve judgments 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 our 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 other filings with the Securities
and Exchange Commission.
