(1) Certain amounts have been reclassified to conform with current year presentation. 6 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) CITIZENS BANKING CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Citizens Banking Corporation ("Citizens") have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") 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 GAAP 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 and six months ended June 30, 2004 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2004. The balance sheet at December 31, 2003 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in Citizens' 2003 Annual Report on Form 10-K. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION: Citizens' stock-based compensation plans are accounted for based on the intrinsic value method set forth in Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations. Compensation expense for employee stock options is generally not recognized if the exercise price of the option equals or exceeds the fair value of the stock on the date of grant. Compensation expense for restricted share awards is ratably recognized over the period of service, usually the restricted period, based on the fair value of the stock on the date of grant. The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if Citizens had applied the fair value recognition provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, to its stock option awards.

NOTE 2. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS EMPLOYERS' DISCLOSURES ABOUT PENSIONS AND OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS: In December 2003, the FASB issued a revised SFAS 132, Employers' Disclosures about Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits - an amendment of SFAS 87, 88, and 106 which revises employers' disclosures about pension plans and other postretirement benefit plans. SFAS 132 does not change the measurement or recognition of those plans required by SFAS 87, Employers' Accounting for Pensions, SFAS 88, Employers' Accounting for Settlements and Curtailments of Defined Benefit Pension Plans and for Termination Benefits, and SFAS 106, Employers' Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions. SFAS 132, as revised, retains the disclosure requirements contained in the original SFAS 132, which it replaces. Additional disclosures, however, have been added to those in the original SFAS 132 about the assets, obligations, cash flows, and net periodic benefit cost of defined benefit pension plans and other defined benefit postretirement plans. The required information should be provided separately for pension plans and for other postretirement benefit plans. In addition, SFAS 132 requires interim period disclosure of the components of net period benefit cost and contributions if significantly different from previously reported amounts - see Note 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this report. The new disclosures required by SFAS 132 became effective for Citizens as of December 31, 2003 and do not impact our results of operations, financial position, or liquidity. 7 ACCOUNTING AND DISCLOSURE REQUIREMENTS RELATED TO THE MEDICARE PRESCRIPTION DRUG, IMPROVEMENT AND MODERNIZATION ACT OF 2003: In January 2004, The FASB issued FASB Staff Position ("FSP"), "Accounting and Disclosure Requirements Related to the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003," subsequently revised in May 2004. The FSP permits sponsors of postretirement healthcare plans that provide prescription drug benefits to elect a one-time deferral of accounting for the effects of the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003 ("Act") and requires certain disclosures pending further consideration of the underlying accounting issues. The Act provides a federal subsidy to companies which sponsor postretirement benefit plans that provide prescription drug benefits. The FSP is effective for financial statements of interim or annual periods beginning after June 15, 2004. Citizens is in the process of analyzing the impact the Act will have on its employee benefit plans. Citizens has elected to defer accounting for the effects of this new legislation until the specific authoritative guidance is analyzed. Citizens anticipates its benefits costs will be somewhat lower as a result of the new Medicare provision, however, the adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on results of operations, financial position or liquidity. NOTE 3. BUSINESS RESTRUCTURING AND SPECIAL CHARGE In the third quarter of 2002, Citizens recorded a special charge of $13.8 million ($9.0 million after-tax) for restructuring, impairment and other costs associated with the reorganization of Citizens' consumer, commercial and wealth management lines of business. The reorganization was the result of a detailed review of Citizens' consumer banking, commercial banking and wealth management areas by key members of management with assistance from industry consultants. This review revealed opportunities for process change, staff reassignment, reporting structure changes, branch closures, expense reduction and business growth. As a result of the reorganization, Citizens displaced 134 employees. Displaced employees were offered severance packages and outplacement assistance. Twelve banking offices were closed in the fourth quarter of 2002 and six additional offices were closed during the second quarter of 2003. The following provides details on the remaining liability from the special charge as of June 30, 2004.

NOTE 4. OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS Citizens' other intangible assets as of June 30, 2004, December 31, 2003 and June 30, 2003 are shown in the table below.

The estimated annual amortization expense for core deposit intangibles for each of the next five years is $2.9 million. NOTE 5. LINES OF BUSINESS INFORMATION Citizens is managed along the following business lines: Commercial Banking, Consumer Banking, Wealth Management, and Other. In 2003, Citizens allocated its core deposit intangible and the related amortization to the Commercial Banking and Consumer Banking business lines. The core deposit intangible and the related amortization was previously recorded in the 8 Other business line. Prior period information has been restated to reflect this change. In the third quarter of 2003, Citizens reallocated the investment security portfolio held in our mortgage company from Consumer Banking to Treasury, which is a component of Other. In the first quarter of 2004, Citizens transferred the credit administration function from Other to Commercial Banking. The effect on net income of the reallocation of the investment security portfolio and the transfer of the credit administration function for the prior periods presented were not material to the segments and they were not restated. Selected line of business segment information, as adjusted, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 is provided below. There are no significant intersegment revenues.

Citizens previously disclosed in Note 13 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003, that it expected to contribute approximately $0.5 million to its pension plans in 2004. As of June 30, 2004, $0.2 million of contributions have been made. Citizens anticipates that $0.5 million of contributions will be made in 2004. NOTE 8. DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES SFAS 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," as amended by SFAS 138 and SFAS 149, "Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities," (collectively referred to as "SFAS 133") establish accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities. All derivatives, whether designated in hedging relationships or not, are required to be recorded on the balance sheet at fair value. Citizens designates its derivatives based upon criteria established by SFAS 133. For a derivative designated as a fair value hedge, the derivative is recorded at fair value on the consolidated balance sheet. Any difference between the fair value change of the hedge versus the fair value change of the hedged item is considered to be the "ineffective" portion of the hedge. The ineffectiveness of the hedge is recorded in current earnings. For a derivative designated as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of the derivative's gain or loss is initially reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and subsequently reclassified into earnings when the hedged exposure affects earnings. Citizens may use derivative instruments to hedge the variability in interest payments or protect the value of certain assets and liabilities recorded in its balance sheet from changes in interest rates. Citizens uses interest rate contracts such as interest rate swaps to manage its interest rate risk. These contracts are designated as hedges of specific assets or liabilities. The net interest receivable or payable on swaps is accrued and recognized as an adjustment to the interest income or expense of the hedged asset or liability. The following table summarizes the derivative financial instruments held or issued by Citizens. 11 DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS:

For the six months ended June 30, 2004, employees have exercised stock options to acquire 226,961 shares at an average exercise price of $19.79 per share. 12 NOTE 10. COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND GUARANTEES The Consolidated Financial Statements do not reflect various loan commitments (unfunded loans and unused lines of credit) and letters of credit originated in the normal course of business. Loan commitments are made to accommodate the financial needs of clients. Generally, new loan commitments do not extend beyond 90 days and unused lines of credit are reviewed at least annually. Financial standby letters of credit guarantee future payment of client financial obligations to third parties. They are issued primarily for services provided. Performance standby letters of credit are irrevocable guarantees to make payment in the event a specified third party fails to perform under a nonfinancial contractual obligation. Commercial letters of credit facilitate the shipment of goods or enable clients to access public bond financing. Standby letters of credit arrangements generally expire within one year and have essentially the same level of credit risk as extending loans to clients and are subject to Citizens' normal credit policies. Inasmuch as these arrangements generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses, most expire unfunded and do not necessarily represent future liquidity requirements. Collateral is obtained based on management's assessment of the client and may include receivables, inventories, real property and equipment. Amounts available to clients under loan commitments and standby letters of credit follow:

It should be read in conjunction with the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes included elsewhere in this report and the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes contained in our 2003 Annual Report on Form 10-K. In addition, the following discussion and analysis should be read together with "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" contained in our 2003 Annual Report on Form 10-K, which contains important additional information that is necessary to understand our Company and its financial condition and results of operations for the periods covered by this report. Unless the context indicates otherwise, all references in the discussion to "Citizens," the "Company," "our," "us" and "we" refer to Citizens Banking Corporation and its subsidiaries. FORWARD -LOOKING STATEMENTS Discussions in this report that are not statements of historical fact (including statements that include terms such as "may," "should," "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "estimate," "intend," and "plan") are forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, and our actual future results could materially differ from those discussed. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, without limitation, risks and uncertainties detailed from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as well as the following. - We face the risk that loan losses, including unanticipated loan losses due to changes in our loan portfolios, fraud and economic factors, will exceed our allowance for loan losses and that additional increases in the allowance will be required. Additions to the allowance would cause net income to decline and could have a negative impact on our capital. - While we attempt to manage the risk from changes in market interest rates, interest rate risk management techniques are not exact. In addition, we may not be able to economically hedge our interest rate risk. A rapid or substantial increase or decrease in interest rates could adversely affect our net interest income and results of operations. - An economic downturn, and the negative economic effects caused by terrorist attacks, potential attacks and other destabilizing events, would likely contribute to the deterioration of the quality of our loan portfolio and could reduce our customer base, our level of deposits, and demand for financial products such as loans. - If we are unable to continue to attract core deposits or unable to continue to obtain third party financing on favorable terms, our cost of funds will increase, adversely affecting our ability to generate the funds necessary for lending operations, reducing our net interest margin and negatively affecting our results of operations. - Increased competition with other financial institutions could reduce our net income by decreasing the number and size of loans that we originate, the interest rates we may charge on these loans and the fees we are able to charge for services to our customers. - The financial services industry is undergoing rapid technological changes. If we are unable to adequately invest in and implement new technology-driven products and services, we may not be able to compete effectively, or our cost to provide products and services may increase significantly. - Our business may be adversely affected by the highly regulated environment in which we operate. Changes in banking or tax laws, regulations and regulatory practices at either the federal or state level may adversely affect us, including our ability to offer new products and services, obtain financing, move funds from our subsidiaries to our parent company, attract deposits, make loans and leases and achieve satisfactory spreads, and may also result in the imposition of additional costs on us. - The products and services offered by the banking industry and customer expectations regarding them are subject to change. We attempt to respond to perceived customer needs and expectations by offering new products and services, such as our new wealth management capabilities, which are often costly to develop and market initially. A lack of market acceptance of these products and services would have a negative effect on our results of operations. In addition, our potential inability to successfully expand our Oakland County operations would have a negative effect on our results of operations. - New accounting pronouncements may be issued by the accounting profession, regulators or other government bodies which could change our existing accounting methods. Changes in accounting methods could negatively impact our results of operations and capital. 15 - We could face unanticipated environmental liabilities or costs related to both real property that we own or that we acquire through foreclosure. Compliance with federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations, including those related to investigation and clean-up of contaminated sites, may increase our capital costs and operating expenses. - As a bank holding company that conducts substantially all of its operations through its subsidiaries, the ability of the parent company to pay dividends, repurchase its shares or to repay its indebtedness depends upon the results of operations of its subsidiaries and their ability to pay dividends to the parent company. Dividends paid by these subsidiaries are subject to limits imposed by federal and state law. Other factors not currently anticipated by management may also materially and adversely affect our results of operations. There can be no assurance that future results will meet expectations. While we believe that our forward-looking statements are reasonable, you should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statement. In addition, these statements speak only as of the date made. We do not undertake, and expressly disclaim any obligation, to update or alter our statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable law. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES Citizens' Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and follow general practices within the industries in which we operate. Application of these principles requires management to make estimates, assumptions, and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates, assumptions and judgments are based on information available as of the date of the financial statements; accordingly, as this information changes, the financial statements could reflect different estimates, assumptions and judgments. Certain policies inherently have a greater reliance on the use of estimates, assumptions, and judgments and as such, have a greater possibility of producing results that could be materially different than originally reported. Based on the valuation techniques used and the sensitivity of financial statement amounts to the methods, assumptions and estimates underlying those amounts, management has identified the determination of the allowance for loan losses and the benefit obligation and net periodic pension expense for our employee pension and postretirement benefit plans to be the accounting areas that require the most subjective or complex judgments, and, therefore, are the most likely to vary materially as new information becomes available. Our significant accounting policies are more fully described in Note 1 to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements contained in our 2003 Annual Report on Form 10-K and the more significant assumptions and estimates made by management are more fully described in "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Critical Accounting Policies" in our 2003 Annual Report on Form 10-K. There have been no material changes to those policies or the estimates made pursuant to those policies during the most recent quarter. SALE OF SUBSIDIARY BANK AND PREPAYMENT OF FHLB ADVANCES On August 5, 2004 Citizens completed the sale of its subsidiary bank, Citizens Bank-Illinois, N.A. ("Illinois Bank"), to Metropolitan Bank Group, Inc., of Chicago, Illinois in a cash transaction valued at $26,250,000. The Illinois Bank had three locations with $179 million of assets, $79 million of loans and $159 million of deposits as of June 30, 2004. Citizens realized a gain of approximately $12 million on the transaction. In addition, Citizens prepaid $235 million of high cost Federal Home Loan Bank advances during the third quarter of 2004, which will improve Citizens' net interest margin. Prepayment penalties on the debt largely offset the gain on sale of the Illinois Bank, resulting in a relatively neutral effect on earnings per share for the third quarter. In addition, the anticipated improvement in the net interest margin, along with other potential balance sheet strategies that Citizens is still evaluating, are expected to largely offset the negative impact on future results of operations from the sale of the Illinois Bank. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS EARNINGS SUMMARY Citizens earned net income of $18,722,000, or $0.43, per diluted share for the three months ended June 30, 2004, compared with $13,214,000, or $0.30 per diluted share, for the same quarter of 2003. Annualized returns on average assets and average equity for the quarter were 0.97% and 12.00%, respectively, compared with 0.68% and 8.29%, respectively, in 2003. For the six months ended June 30, 2004, net income was $36,165,000 or $0.83 per diluted share compared with net income of $28,272,000 or $0.65 per diluted share for the same period of 2003. Annualized returns on average assets and average equity during the first six months of 2004 were 0.94% and 11.44%, respectively, compared with 0.75% and 8.89%, respectively, in 2003. Net income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 increased from the comparable periods in 2003 due to a lower loan loss provision, partially offset by lower net interest income, a loss on investment securities designated for sale and 16 higher noninterest expense. The provision for loan losses decreased to $4.5 million in the second quarter of 2004 compared with $25.7 million in the same quarter of 2003. The lower loan loss provision in 2004 reflects a lower level of charge-offs, the decline in nonperforming assets, and fewer risk rating downgrades within the commercial loan portfolio. In addition, the first quarter of 2003 included an unanticipated credit-related charge-off of $11.5 million on a single commercial credit in which collateral value was materially overstated (based on borrowing base reports falsified by the borrower). NET INTEREST INCOME AND NET INTEREST MARGIN An analysis of net interest income, interest spread and net interest margin with average balances and related interest rates for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 is presented below. 17 AVERAGE BALANCES/NET INTEREST INCOME/AVERAGE RATES

(1) Interest income shown on actual basis and does not include taxable equivalent adjustments. (2) Average rates are presented on an annual basis and include taxable equivalent adjustments to interest income of $6,718,000 and $6,829,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively, based on a tax rate of 35%. (3) Certain amounts have been reclassified to conform with current year presentation. (4) For presentation in this table, average balances and the corresponding average rates for investment securities are based upon historical cost, adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. Net interest income decreased $3.7 million to $69.2 million in the second quarter of 2004 compared with $72.9 million in the same quarter of 2003. The decrease in net interest income compared with the second quarter of 2003 resulted from a decline in the net interest margin and lower average earning assets. For the six months ended June 30, 2004, net interest income declined $6.9 million to $137.5 million compared with the same period of the prior year due to a decline in net interest margin, partially offset by higher earning assets. Earning assets increased due to the $500 million expansion of the investment portfolio which began late in the first quarter of 2003. Excluding the effects of the Illinois Bank sale, which 19 closed in the third quarter, Citizens anticipates that its net interest income in the third and fourth quarters will be comparable to or slightly higher than the second quarter level due to an increased volume of earning assets. Net interest margin declined to 3.98% in the second quarter of 2004 compared with 4.17% in the second quarter of 2003. The decrease in net interest margin from the second quarter of 2003 resulted from declines in yields on all earning asset categories, with the exception of mortgage loans held for sale, as a result of the lower interest rate environment, as well as a shift in the mix of earning assets from loans to lower yielding investment securities. For the six months ended June 30, 2004, net interest margin declined to 3.99% compared with 4.25% for the same period of 2003. The 63 basis point decline in the yield on earning assets for the first six months of 2004 was partially offset by a 43 basis point decline in the cost of interest bearing liabilities as the cost of all funding sources declined in the lower interest rate environment. The recent increase in short term interest rates by the Federal Reserve is anticipated to have a negligible impact on our net interest margin. The table below shows the effect of changes in average balances ("volume") and market rates of interest ("rate") on interest income, interest expense and net interest income for major categories of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities.

(1) Changes are based on actual interest income and do not reflect taxable equivalent adjustments. (2) Changes not solely due to changes in volume or rates have been allocated in proportion to the absolute dollar amounts of the change in each. The decrease in net interest income for the three and six month periods of 2004 compared with the same periods of 2003 reflects unfavorable rate-related variances, partially offset by net favorable volume-related variances. Favorable volume-related variances in the investment securities portfolio are attributable to the 2003 portfolio expansion program, and favorable volume variances in the direct and indirect consumer loan portfolios are due to loan growth. The favorable variances were partially offset by lower volumes of commercial and mortgage loans, and mortgage loans held for sale. Commercial loan volumes declined due to lower demand for commercial credit, high repayment activity and continued reduction of exposure on credits not meeting our risk parameters. Mortgage loan volumes declined due to continued refinance and repayment activity and our strategy to sell most new mortgage loan production into the secondary market. Favorable volume variances from lower time deposit balances, were partially offset by unfavorable volume variances in other deposit categories, short-term borrowings and long term debt. The unfavorable rate-related variances were due to lower yields on virtually all asset 20 categories as fixed rate loans and investment securities portfolios continued to reprice lower throughout 2003 and into the first half of 2004 due to the extended low interest rate environment. Lower yields on earning assets were only partially offset by lower funding costs. While the cost of most funding categories declined in the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004 compared with the same periods of the prior year, interest expense on such interest-bearing funds declined less than interest income on earning assets as the cost of certain interest-bearing demand and savings deposits declined to levels which approached practical lower limits. NONINTEREST INCOME Noninterest income for the second quarter of 2004 declined $2.0 million, or 8.2%, to $22.8 million compared with the second quarter of 2003. The decrease occurred as a result of a $2.1 million loss on investment securities designated for sale during the second quarter. The market value of these available-for-sale securities was below cost due to an increase in market interest rates. The anticipated proceeds of approximately $75 million from the sale of these agency-backed collateralized mortgage obligation securities are expected to be reinvested into securities with a more favorable prepayment risk profile at higher yields, which should benefit net interest income in future periods. Compared with the prior quarter, all major categories of fee income increased, led by significantly higher deposit service charges, increased brokerage and investment fees, higher mortgage and other loan income, and higher trust fees and bankcard fees. Noninterest income for the six months ended June 30, 2004 decreased $2.8 million to $45.3 million compared with $48.1 million in the first six months of 2003 due largely to a $5.3 million decrease in mortgage and other loan income and the $2.1 million loss on investment securities designated for sale in the second quarter of 2004. The significant decline in mortgage and other loan income in the first six months of 2004 compared with the same period of 2003 was mostly offset by sharply higher deposit service charges, increased brokerage and investment fees, and higher trust and bankcard fees. An analysis of the sources of noninterest income during the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 is summarized in the table below. NONINTEREST INCOME

N/M - Not Meaningful Deposit service charges increased in both the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 compared with the same periods of the prior year due primarily to higher overdraft fee income. Initiatives implemented over the last twelve months have improved the revenue generated from overdrafts and, to a lesser extent, other transaction-based charges. Trust fees increased in both the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 compared with the same periods of the prior year primarily due to stronger financial markets and Citizens' sales and sales management processes implemented in the first quarter of 2004, which are focused on relationship management and new business development strategies. Total trust assets under administration increased $6 million to $2.626 billion at June 30, 2004 from $2.620 billion at June 30, 2003. Mortgage and other loan income declined in both the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 compared with the same periods of the prior year. The decline in revenue is reflective of the decrease in mortgage loan origination volume in the current year periods. Loans sold declined $527 million to $198 million in the six month period ended June 30, 2004 compared with the same period of the prior year. The increases in brokerage and investment fees in both the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 compared with the same periods of the prior year were primarily due to a successful brokerage sales campaign. The brokerage sales campaign was a collaborative effort between the Consumer Banking and Wealth Management business units which generated $34 million in sales and $1.4 million in fee income. 21 Other noninterest income declined in the three month period ended June 30, 2004 as a $500,000 gain on the sale of a branch property and a $250,000 gain on sale of credit card loans were offset by lower title insurance fees, cash management services, ATM fees and other income. For the six months ended June 30, 2004, other noninterest income increased as net gains on sales of branch properties and equipment of $1.1 million and the credit card gain of $250,000 offset the decline in the title insurance fees, cash management services, ATM fees and other income. Excluding the effects of the Illinois Bank sale which closed in the third quarter, and excluding the effects of the second quarter securities loss and gain on sale of the branch property, Citizens anticipates total noninterest income in the third and fourth quarters to be comparable to the second quarter level. NONINTEREST EXPENSE Noninterest expense increased $5.8 million or 10.3% to $62.1 million in the second quarter of 2004 compared with $56.4 million in the second quarter of 2003. For the six month period ended June 30, 2004, noninterest expense increased $9.7 million or 8.6% to $122.7 million compared with the same period in 2003. All categories of noninterest expense except equipment increased in the three months ended June 30, 2004 compared to the same period of the prior year,while all categories except equipment and supplies and stationery increased in the six months ended June 30, 2004 compared to the same period of the prior year. An analysis of the components of noninterest expense during the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 is summarized in the table below. NONINTEREST EXPENSE

Salaries and employee benefits increased due to higher salaries in Oakland County of $1.0 million and $2.3 million in the three and six month periods, respectively, resulting from the previously announced Oakland County expansion initiative. Salaries and employee benefits also increased in both the three and six month periods due to higher pension and other employee benefits expenses. Normal salary merit increases were offset by a reduction in staffing levels. Citizens had 2,272 full time equivalent employees at June 30, 2004, down from 2,376 at June 30, 2003. Occupancy costs increased in both the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004 compared with the same periods of the prior year. Building rent and other occupancy costs increased $0.2 million and $0.3 million for the three and six month periods, respectively, due to the opening of new branches and an administrative office in Oakland County. Building repair increased $0.1 million and $0.3 million in the three and six month periods, respectively, due to a change in Citizens' capitalization policy during the fourth quarter of 2003 incorporating higher capitalization thresholds on new expenditures. Other occupancy costs increased $0.3 million and $0.7 million in the three and six month periods, respectively, largely due to higher maintenance, energy and real estate tax expenses. Professional services expense increased for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004 due to higher legal and other professional fees related to loan collection activity, and higher audit costs related to new control evaluation procedures to comply with section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Equipment expense decreased $0.2 million and $0.7 million, and telephone expense increased $0.3 million and $0.7 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004, respectively, due to the reclassification of data transmission costs from equipment expense to telephone expense in connection with a new services contract. 22 Data processing services increased in both the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004 due to higher processing costs related to the fourth quarter 2003 implementation of the new trust and investment accounting systems and operations with SEI Investments, and retirement services recordkeeping systems and operations with EPIC Advisors, Inc. These increases were partially offset by lower processing costs in both periods on Citizens' core loan and deposit systems. Advertising and public relations expense increased in both the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004 compared with the same periods of the prior year. Advertising to support Citizens' Oakland County initiative accounted for $1.0 million and deposit-focused promotions accounted for $0.5 million of the six month period increase. Other loan fee expense increased in both the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004 compared with the same periods of the prior year due to a higher provision for losses on unfunded loan commitments, waiver of certain client-paid mortgage loan fees and lower deferral of mortgage loan expenses due to the lower mortgage loan origination volume. Contributing to the increases in other noninterest expense were higher non-credit related losses of $0.3 million and $0.8 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004, respectively, due to higher losses in the current year periods and an unusually low level of such losses in the prior year periods. In addition, training and travel expenses increased $0.3 and $0.6 million in the three and six month periods, respectively, while lower deferred loan origination costs also increased other expenses by $0.3 million and $0.5 million in the three and six month periods, respectively. Partially offsetting these increases were lower expenses for other real estate which declined $0.5 million and $0.7 million in the three and six month periods, respectively. Excluding the effects of the Illinois Bank sale which closed in the third quarter, Citizens anticipates that noninterest expense in the third and fourth quarters will remain comparable to the second quarter level. INCOME TAXES Income tax provision increased to $6.7 million and $12.5 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively, compared with $2.5 million and $6.7 million in the same periods in 2003. The effective tax rate, computed by dividing the provision for income taxes by income before taxes, was 26.2% and 25.7% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, respectively, compared with 16.1% and 19.2% for the same periods of 2003. In both the three and six month periods, the effective tax rates increased due to a higher ratio of taxable income to total income, attributable to the lower provision for loan losses. The effective tax rate is lower than the statutory tax rate due to tax-exempt interest and noninterest income and, to a lesser extent, other permanent income tax differences.

COMMERCIAL BANKING The increases in net income in both the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004 was attributable to a decrease in the provision for loan losses, partially offset by declines in net interest income and noninterest income and higher noninterest expenses. The significant decline in the loan loss provision was due to lower net charge-offs, fewer commercial loan risk rating downgrades and improving non-performing asset levels. Net loan charge-offs in Commercial Banking declined to $2.7 million and $7.3 million in the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004, respectively, compared with $9.4 million 23 and $21.9 million in the same periods of 2003 due largely to a single credit charge-off of $11.5 million in the first quarter of 2003. Net interest income declined in both the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004 as a result of lower average commercial loan balances due to lower demand for commercial credit, high repayment activity and continued reduction of exposure on credits not meeting our risk parameters. The decline in loans occurred in most markets with the exception of Southeast Michigan, including Oakland County, which experienced moderate growth. Noninterest income declined due to lower deposit service charges and cash management fees as certain commercial account relationships were transferred from Commercial Banking to Consumer Banking beginning in the second quarter of 2003, based upon the client's assigned office. Noninterest expense increased primarily due to higher compensation costs as a result of an increase in commercial banking staff, lower deferred origination-related compensation and higher recruiting-related incentives in Oakland County and other markets. CONSUMER BANKING The increase in net income for the three months ended June 30, 2004 compared to the same period of the prior year was due to a decrease in provision for loan losses and an increase in noninterest income. Noninterest income increased as a result of increased income from deposit service charges and net gains on sales of branch properties, offset by decreases in mortgage income from lower refinance activities. Noninterest income also increased due to the transfer of certain commercial account relationships from Commercial Banking to Consumer Banking beginning in the second quarter of 2003 resulting in higher deposit service charges and cash management fees. The decrease in provision for loan losses reflected a reduced level of net loan charge-offs. Lower mortgage portfolio loans and mortgage loans held for sale contributed to a decline in net interest income which partially offset the increases from higher noninterest income and lower provision for loan losses. The increase in net income for the six months ended June 30, 2004 compared to the same period a year ago was due to increases in net interest income and noninterest income and decreases in provision for loan losses and noninterest expense. Net interest income improved as a result of growing home equity and indirect loan portfolios and improved deposit spreads due to lower rates on deposit products, partially offset by lower mortgage portfolio loans and mortgage loans held for sale. Noninterest income increased due to higher deposit service charge income and net gains related to the sale of branch properties, partially offset by a decrease in mortgage income due to lower refinance volumes. The provision for loan losses declined reflecting a lower level of net charge-offs. Noninterest expense declined reflecting the prior year efforts to improve efficiency levels in the branches which was partially offset by increased advertising for Oakland County. WEALTH MANAGEMENT The increase in net income for the three month period ended June 30, 2004 was due to increases in net interest income and noninterest income and a decline in noninterest expense. Net interest income increased due to the internal transfer of loans and deposits to Wealth Management from the Commercial Banking and Consumer Banking lines of business to better align customer relationships. Noninterest income increased due to higher trust and brokerage fees. Trust fees increased primarily due to stronger financial markets and Citizens' sales and sales management processes implemented in the first quarter of 2004, which are focused on relationship management and new business development strategies. The increases in brokerage and investment fees were primarily due to a successful brokerage sales campaign in which the Consumer and Wealth Management lines of business collaborated to generate $34 million in brokerage and investment sales and $1.4 million in fee income. The decline in net income for the six month period ended June 30, 2004 was due to an increase in noninterest expense partially offset by increases in net interest income and noninterest income. Noninterest expense increased primarily due to higher incentive-based compensation and due to increased data processing costs related to implementation of the new trust and investment accounting systems and operations with SEI Investments and retirement services recordkeeping systems and operations with EPIC Advisors, Inc. Net interest income increased due to the internal transfer of loans and deposits mentioned above, and noninterest income increased due to higher trust and brokerage fees. On July 22, 2004, Citizens Bank Wealth Management, N.A. announced that the Board of Trustees of the company-managed Golden Oak mutual funds has given preliminary approval to a proposal to reorganize on a tax-free basis the Golden Oak Funds into two leading fund groups: Goldman Sachs Trust and Federated Investors, Inc.'s family of funds. Six of the Golden Oak portfolios will merge with comparable portfolios managed by Goldman Sachs, and one portfolio will merge with a comparable portfolio offered by Federated. Golden Oak mutual fund portfolios currently have approximately $465 million in assets under management. The acquiring funds have filed registration statements with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The reorganization is expected to be completed at the end of September. At that time, the assets of the Golden Oak funds will be exchanged for shares of the acquiring funds. Citizens' expects to recognize a small gain upon completion of the reorganization, with minimal impact to its future results of operations and cash flow as a result of this transaction. Early in the third quarter of 2004, Citizens replaced its broker/dealer services vendor with Independent Financial Marketing Group, Inc. (IFMG). IFMG will provide marketing support, advanced technology and improved processing capabilities. Citizens anticipates no significant change in cash flows or results of operations in the third quarter as a result of this new 24 alliance, and anticipates enhanced brokerage and investment fee revenue and improved brokerage unit profitability beginning in subsequent periods as a result of this relationship. OTHER The decline in net income in both the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004 was due to lower noninterest income and higher noninterest expense. Noninterest income declined due to the previously mentioned loss on sale of investment securities during the second quarter of 2004. Noninterest expense increased in both the three and six month periods due to higher salaries and employee benefits expense, increased marketing expenses, higher loan fee expense and increased non-credit related losses in the current year periods compared with an unusually low level of such losses in the prior year periods, and increased professional services expense. FINANCIAL CONDITION Total assets were $7.748 billion at June 30, 2004, an increase of $36.8 million or 0.5% compared with December 31, 2003. Total assets increased due to growth in portfolio loans. Portfolio loans increased $44.4 million or 0.8% compared with year end 2003 as consumer loans, excluding mortgage loans, increased, while mortgage and commercial loans declined. Total deposits at June 30, 2004 decreased $80.8 million or 1.5% compared with December 31, 2003 largely due to a decline in time deposits. INVESTMENT SECURITIES AND MONEY MARKET INVESTMENTS Total average investments, including money market investments, comprised 27.3% of average earning assets during the first six months of 2004 compared with 23.7% for the same period of 2003, a $286 million increase from the prior year average levels. The increase was due to purchases of securities beginning in March 2003, when Citizens implemented an investment portfolio expansion plan to help offset the effect on net interest income of weak loan demand. In accordance with the plan, Citizens purchased approximately $500 million of mortgage backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations with average lives of three to five years and an average duration of two to four years, resulting in interest spreads of up to 250 basis points over funding sources. The purchases were funded with cash flow from loan repayments, runoff of investments and short- and medium-term borrowings. PORTFOLIO LOANS Portfolio loans increased $44.4 million or 0.8% compared with December 31, 2003 as consumer loans, excluding mortgage loans, increased, while mortgage and commercial loans declined. Commercial loans, including commercial real estate construction loans, decreased $99.6 million or 3.3% at June 30, 2004 compared with December 31, 2003, due to lower demand for commercial credit, high repayment activity and continued reduction of exposure on credits not meeting Citizens' risk parameters. The decline moderated in the second quarter as commercial loans decreased only $9.1 million compared with the $90.5 million reduction in the first quarter of 2004. Continued declines in Citizens' Wisconsin and Iowa markets during the second quarter of 2004 were nearly offset by accelerating growth in Michigan's Oakland County market. Consumer loans, excluding mortgage loans, increased $168.1 million or 9.5% at June 30, 2004 compared with December 31, 2003 due to strong growth in home equity loans. Home equity loans increased $124 million or 16.6% in the six months ended June 30, 2004. The recreational vehicle and marine segments of the indirect loan portfolio also experienced strong growth due to higher seasonal demand in the second quarter. Mortgage loans declined $24.1 million or 4.9% compared to December 31, 2003. The decline in the mortgage portfolio occurred due to ongoing repayment and refinance activity coupled with Citizens' strategy to sell most new mortgage loan production into the secondary market. Compared with June 30, 2003, mortgage loans declined $111.5 million or 19.2% at June 30, 2004 as a result of prepayments from refinancing. Growth in consumer loans is anticipated to continue during the remainder of 2004 led by strong growth in home equity loans and more moderate growth in indirect loans, primarily marine and recreational vehicle loans, consistent with the trend in consumer loan growth over the past twelve months. Mortgage loans are expected to continue to decline due to ongoing refinance and repayment activity combined with our strategy to sell most new mortgage loan production. Commercial loans are anticipated to flatten during the second half of the year and begin to grow prior to year end with improvement in new business development led by the Oakland County market. At June 30, 2004 and 2003, $50.1 million and $87.8 million, respectively, of residential real estate loans originated and subsequently sold in the secondary market were being serviced by Citizens. Capitalized servicing rights relating to the serviced loans were fully amortized in June 2003. 25 MORTGAGE LOANS HELD FOR SALE Mortgage loans held for sale were $37.0 million at June 30, 2004, down $7.7 million compared with December 31, 2003 and $99.4 million lower compared with June 30, 2003. These balances generally track the level of originations, as we sell most of our new residential mortgage loan production into the secondary market due to the low interest rate environment. Closed mortgage loan volume declined to $217 million in the second quarter of 2004 compared with $491 million in the second quarter of 2003. New mortgage loan production was spurred during the second quarter of 2003 by a strong refinance market as a result of the low interest rate environment. Average mortgage loans held for sale during the first six months of 2004 comprised 0.5% of average earning assets compared with 2.3% during the same period in 2003. Mortgage loans held for sale are accounted for on the lower of cost or market basis. PROVISION AND ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES A summary of loan loss experience during the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 is provided below. ANALYSIS OF ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

(1) Balances exclude mortgage loans held for sale. Net charge-offs declined to $4.4 million in the second quarter of 2004 compared with $12.0 million in the second quarter of 2003. The decline was due primarily to lower net charge-offs in the commercial loan portfolio, and to a lesser extent, lower consumer loan net charge-offs. For the six month period net charge-offs were $11.2 million compared with $28.1 million in the same period a year ago. The significant decline in net charge-offs was largely due to an $11.5 million charge-off on a single commercial credit in the first quarter of 2003. 26 The provision for loan losses declined to $4.5 million compared with $25.7 million in the same quarter of 2003. The decline in the provision for loan losses reflects the lower level of net charge-offs, a reduction in nonperforming assets and fewer risk rating downgrades on commercial credits during the quarter. Citizens anticipates both net charge-offs and provision expense to be somewhat higher in the third quarter than in the second quarter of 2004, due to the unusually low level of consumer loan charge-offs in the second quarter and anticipated higher commercial loan net charge-offs in the third quarter of 2004. The allowance for loan losses represents our estimate of probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio. The allowance is based on ongoing quarterly assessments and is maintained at a level management considers to be adequate to absorb probable loan losses identified with specific customer relationships and for probable losses believed to be inherent in the loan portfolio that have not been specifically identified. Our evaluation process is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that may be susceptible to significant change and have the potential to materially affect net income. Default frequency, internal risk ratings, expected future cash collections, loss recovery rates, and general economic factors, among other things, are considered in this evaluation, as are the size and diversity of individual large credits. While we continue to enhance our loan loss allocation model and risk rating process, we have not substantively changed our overall approach in the determination of the allowance for loan losses in 2004 from 2003. Our methodology for measuring the adequacy of the allowance relies on several key elements, which include specific allowances for identified problem loans, a formula-based risk-allocated allowance for the remainder of the portfolio and an unallocated allowance. This methodology is discussed in our 2003 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The allowance for loan losses totaled $123.8 million or 2.34% of loans at June 30, 2004, consistent with the December 31, 2003 level of $123.5 million or 2.36% of loans. At June 30, 2004, the allowance allocated to specific commercial and commercial real estate credits was $16.4 million compared with $18.3 million at December 31, 2003. The decrease was primarily attributable to a decline in criticized and classified credits (i.e., those internally risk rated 7 - special mention, 8 - substandard or 9 - doubtful). Criticized and classified credits subject to specific reserves declined $23.0 million to $43.7 million at June 30, 2004 compared with $66.7 million at December 31, 2003. The total formula risk-allocated allowance was $86.2 million at June 30, 2004, down from $89.5 million at December 31, 2003. The amount allocated to commercial and commercial real estate loans, including construction loans, decreased to $64.9 million at June 30, 2004 compared with $69.7 million at December 31, 2003. The decrease reflected a lower level of nonperforming assets in these categories. The risk-allocated allowance for residential real estate loans increased to $5.8 million at June 30, 2004 compared with $4.7 million at December 31, 2003, reflecting a higher loss allocation factor applied to the mortgage portfolio. The risk-allocated allowance for consumer loans, excluding mortgage loans, increased to $15.5 million at June 30, 2004 compared with $15.1 million at December 31, 2003, due to growth in home equity loans. The unallocated allowance increased to $21.2 million at June 30, 2004, compared with $15.7 million at December 31, 2003. The unallocated portion of the allowance is maintained to address the uncertainty relating to factors affecting the determination of probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio that may not have yet manifested themselves in our specific allowances or in the historical loss factors used to determine the formula allowances, such as geographic expansion, the possible imprecision of internal risk-ratings within the portfolios, continued weak general economic and business conditions and changes in the composition of our portfolio. The increase in the unallocated allowance resulted from additional uncertainty in high risk energy-dependent industries such as trucking and tourism, and additional uncertainty regarding the agricultural loan portfolio. 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. The methods we use to determine the provision for loan losses and the factors we consider are described in "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in our 2003 Annual Report on Form 10-K. 27 NONPERFORMING ASSETS Nonperforming assets are comprised of nonaccrual loans, loans with restructured terms and repossessed assets, primarily real estate. Although these assets have more than a normal risk of loss, they will not necessarily result in a higher level of losses in the future. The table below provides a summary of nonperforming assets as of June 30, 2004, December 31, 2003 and June 30, 2003. NONPERFORMING ASSETS
JUNE 30, December 31, June 30, (in thousands) 2004 2003 2003 -------- ------------ -------- Nonperforming Loans Nonaccrual Commercial: Commercial $ 18,066 $ 37,171 $ 52,760 Commercial real estate 14,982 16,385 19,568 Small business 2,749 1,603 1,466 -------- -------- -------- Total commercial 35,797 55,159 73,794 Nonaccrual Consumer: Direct 4,042 3,177 3,208 Indirect 655 1,247 1,094 -------- -------- -------- Total consumer 4,697 4,424 4,302 Nonaccrual Mortgage 7,697 9,161 9,832 -------- -------- -------- Total nonaccrual loans 48,191 68,744 87,928 Loans 90 days past due and still accruing 298 345 607 Restructured loans 52 -- -- -------- -------- -------- Total nonperforming loans 48,541 69,089 88,535 Other Repossessed Assets Acquired (ORAA) 9,673 7,943 8,044 -------- -------- -------- Total nonperforming assets $ 58,214 $ 77,032 $ 96,579 ======== ======== ======== Nonperforming assets as a percent of portfolio loans plus ORAA (1) 1.10% 1.47% 1.82% Nonperforming assets as a percent of total assets 0.75 1.00 1.24 Allowance for loan loss as a percent of nonperforming loans 255.05 178.82 139.27 Allowance for loan loss as a percent of nonperforming assets 212.67 160.38 127.67
(1) Portfolio loans exclude mortgage loans held for sale. The level of nonperforming commercial loans at June 30, 2004 declined as we sold one of our two largest nonperforming assets and received a significant cash payment on the other during the first quarter of 2004, reducing nonperforming assets by a total of $8.4 million on these two credits alone. In addition, nonperforming commercial loans declined as a result of continued aggressive collection and workout efforts. Changes in nonperforming loans are reflected in the allowance for loan losses through specific and risk allocated allowances. As of June 30, 2004, the total allocated allowance for nonaccrual commercial loans was approximately $5.2 million compared with $7.7 million at June 30, 2003. In addition to loans classified as nonperforming, we carefully monitor other credits that are current in terms of principal and interest payments but which we believe may deteriorate in quality if economic conditions change. As of June 30, 2004, such loans amounted to $165.3 million, or 3.1% of total portfolio loans, compared with $189.8 million, or 3.6%, of total portfolio loans as of December 31, 2003. These loans are primarily commercial and commercial real estate loans made in the normal course of business and do not represent a concentration in any one industry or geographic location. 28 Some of our nonperforming loans included in the nonperforming loan table above are considered to be impaired. Total loans considered impaired and their related reserve balances at June 30, 2004 and 2003 as well as their effect on interest income for the first quarter of 2004 and 2003 follows: IMPAIRED LOAN INFORMATION

DEPOSITS Total deposits decreased $80.8 million, or 1.5% to $5.361 billion at June 30, 2004 compared with $5.442 billion at December 31, 2003. The decline in deposits occurred largely within time deposits, reflecting our less aggressive pricing posture during the low interest rate environment. Time deposits declined $222 million to $1.738 billion at June 30, 2004 compared with $1.960 billion at December 31, 2003. Core deposits, which exclude time deposits, totaled $3.623 billion at June 30, 2004 an increase of $141 million or 4.0% compared with December 31, 2003. The increase in core deposits occurred primarily as a result of the growth in market rate savings, and to a lesser extent, growth in noninterest checking deposits. A decline in interest-bearing checking deposits partially offset the increase in other core deposits. We gather deposits primarily within our local markets and have not traditionally relied on brokered or out of market purchased deposits for any significant portion of our funding. At June 30, 2004, we had approximately $164 million in brokered deposits, up slightly from $159 million at December 31, 2003. We will continue to evaluate the use of alternative funding sources such as brokered deposits as funding needs change. In addition to brokered deposits, we had approximately $417 million of time deposits greater than $100,000, a decrease of $43 million from December 31, 2003. Time deposits greater than $100,000 consist of commercial, consumer and public fund deposits derived almost exclusively from our local markets. We continue to promote relationship driven core deposit growth and stability through focused marketing efforts and competitive pricing strategies. BORROWED FUNDS Short-term borrowings are comprised of federal funds purchased, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, other bank borrowings, FHLB advances and Treasury Tax and Loan notes. As of June 30, 2004, short-term borrowed funds totaled $747.9 million, an increase of $116.3 million or 18.4% compared with December 31, 2003. For the six months ended June 30, 2004, average short-term borrowed funds totaled $598.1 million, an increase of $251.5 million, or 72.6% from the same period of 2003. The increased short-term borrowings provided funding to support expansion of the investment portfolio, which commenced in the first quarter of 2003, and partially offset a decrease in average deposits. Long-term debt consists almost entirely of advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") to our subsidiary banks, and subordinated notes issued by our holding company parent. Average long-term debt totaled $937.1 million for the first six months of 2004, an increase of $152.9 million or 19.5% compared with the same period in 2003. The increases resulted from the issuance of $125 million of subordinated debt in the first quarter of 2003, $25 million of junior subordinated debentures in the second quarter of 2003, and increases in FHLB advances. The $125 million of subordinated debt and the $25 million of junior subordinated debentures qualify as Tier II and Tier I capital, respectively, for regulatory risk-based capital purposes and were issued to improve liquidity and risk-based capital ratios. The increase in FHLB advances provided funding to support the expansion of the investment portfolio and the decline in deposits during 2003. For further information on the two subordinated debt issuances, refer to Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2003 Annual Report on Form 10-K. 29 CAPITAL RESOURCES We continue to maintain a strong capital position, which supports our current needs and provides a sound foundation to support further expansion. Our regulatory capital ratios are consistently at or above the "well capitalized" standards and all of our bank subsidiaries have sufficient capital to maintain a well capitalized designation. Our capital ratios as of June 30, 2004, December 31, 2003 and June 30, 2003 are presented below. CAPITAL RATIOS
Regulatory Minimum For "Well JUNE 30, December 31, June 30, Capitalized" 2004 2003 2003 ------------ ---- ---- ---- Risk based capital: Tier I 6.0% 10.0% 9.8% 9.6% Total capital 10.0 13.4 13.2 13.1 Tier I leverage 5.0 7.5 7.5 7.2
Shareholders' equity at June 30, 2004 was $627.7 million, compared with $635.2 million at December 31, 2003 and $639.2 million as of June 30, 2003. Book value per common share at June 30, 2004, December 31, 2003 and June 30, 2003 was $14.51, $14.69 and $14.77, respectively. We declared and paid cash dividends of $0.285 per share in the second quarter of 2004, the same as we declared and paid in the second quarter of 2003. Shareholders' equity decreased as accumulated other comprehensive income, a component of capital, declined due to a decrease in the fair value of our available for sale securities. During the second quarter of 2004, we purchased a total of 108,000 shares for $3.2 million. Information regarding the Company's share repurchase program is set forth later in this report under Part II, Item 2 "Changes in Securities, Use of Proceeds and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities." CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS AND OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS Our contractual obligations and off-balance sheet arrangements are described in "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" contained in our 2003 Annual Report on Form 10-K. In the first quarter of 2004, we entered into long term leases on new branch and administrative offices in Oakland County with minimum annual lease commitments of approximately $1.0 million and total lease commitments over the life of the contracts of approximately $10.4 million under the non-cancelable operating leases for these facilities. Except for these new leases and as described elsewhere in this Report on Form 10-Q, there have been no material changes to those obligations or arrangements outside the ordinary course of business during the most recent quarter. LIQUIDITY AND DEBT CAPACITY We monitor and manage our liquidity position so that funds will be available at a reasonable cost to meet financial commitments, to finance business expansion and to take advantage of unforeseen opportunities. We manage the liquidity of our parent company to pay dividends to shareholders, service debt, invest in subsidiaries and to satisfy other operating requirements. We manage the liquidity of our subsidiary banks to meet client cash flow needs while maintaining funds available for loan and investment opportunities. Our subsidiary banks derive liquidity primarily through core deposit growth, maturity of money market investments, and maturity and sale of investment securities and loans. Additionally, our subsidiary banks have access to market borrowing sources on an unsecured, as well as a collateralized basis, for both short-term and long-term purposes including, but not limited to, the Federal Reserve and Federal Home Loan Banks where the subsidiary banks are members. The primary sources of liquidity for the parent company are dividends from and returns on investment in its subsidiaries. Each of our banking subsidiaries is subject to dividend limits under the laws of the state in which it is chartered and, as a member bank of the Federal Reserve System, is subject to the dividend limits of the Federal Reserve Board. The Federal Reserve Board allows a member bank to make dividends or other capital distributions in an amount not exceeding the current calendar year's net income, plus retained net income of the preceding two years. Distributions in excess of this limit require prior approval of the Federal Reserve Board. As of July 1, 2004, the banking subsidiaries could distribute to Citizens approximately $33.2 million in dividends without regulatory approval. 30 An additional source of liquidity is the ability of our parent company to borrow funds on both a short-term and long-term basis. Our parent company maintains a $50 million short-term revolving credit facility with two unaffiliated banks. As of June 30, 2004, we had no outstanding balance under this credit facility. The current facility will mature in August 2004 and is expected to be renewed at that time on substantially the same terms. The credit agreement also requires Citizens to maintain certain financial covenants related to asset quality and capital levels. We were in full compliance with all debt covenants as of June 30, 2004. Downgrades in the first quarter of 2003 by FitchRatings and Standard & Poor's Rating Service of our long-term credit rating to BBB from BBB+ due to asset quality deterioration and increased nonperforming assets have not and are not expected to materially affect our liquidity position. Our short-term credit rating remained unchanged at F2 and A-2, respectively. Separately, in the second quarter of 2003, Moody's Investors Service affirmed our outstanding ratings of Baa-1 (long term) and P-2 (short term), after their review for a possible downgrade. We believe that our capital position provides enough financial flexibility to deal with a degree of additional credit deterioration, if such were to occur. Our Oakland County branch expansion plan will pose a challenge to liquidity as both the capital investment and loan growth will require incremental funding. We anticipate that through a combination of wholesale funding and deposit generation of both the new Oakland County branches and the existing branch network, we will be able to fund all aspects of the expansion plan. In addition, the combined effect of the third quarter 2004 sale of the Illinois Bank and the prepayment of Federal Home Loan Bank advances had a neutral impact on liquidity. We also have contingent letter of credit commitments that may impact liquidity. Since many of these commitments historically have expired without being drawn upon, the total amount of these commitments does not necessarily represent our future cash requirements in connection with them. Further information on these commitments is presented in Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this report. We have sufficient liquidity and capital resources to meet presently known short and long-term cash flow requirements. INTEREST RATE RISK Interest rate risk arises when the repricing structures of our assets and liabilities differ significantly. Interest rate risk can result from a mismatch in the timing of the repricing of assets and liabilities, option risk which can alter the expected timing of repricing of certain assets or liabilities, or basis risk. Basis risk occurs when assets and liabilities reprice at the same time but based on different market rates, and when those market rates change by different amounts. Many assets and liabilities contain embedded options which allow customers, and entities associated with our investments and wholesale funding, the opportunity to prepay loans or securities prior to maturity, or to withdraw or reprice deposits or other funding instruments prior to maturity. Our Asset / Liability Committee (ALCO) monitors asset, liability, and off-balance-sheet portfolios to ensure comprehensive management of interest rate risk. The Asset / Liability management process includes monitoring contractual and expected repricing of assets and liabilities as well as forecasting earnings under different interest rate scenarios and balance sheet structures with the objective of insulating net interest income from large swings attributable to changes in market interest rates. Our static interest rate sensitivity, commonly referred to as repricing "GAP," as of June 30, 2004 and 2003 is illustrated in the table on the following page. 31 INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY

(1) Incorporates prepayment projections for certain assets which may shorten the time frame for repricing or maturity compared to contractual runoff. (2) Balances exclude mortgage loans held for sale. (3) Includes interest bearing savings and demand deposits of $1.259 billion and $711 million in 2004 and 2003, respectively, in the less than one year category, and $1.370 billion and $1.911 billion, respectively in the over one year category, based on historical trends for these noncontractual maturity deposit types, which reflects industry standards. (4) GAP is the excess of rate sensitive assets (liabilities). As shown in the table above, as of June 30, 2004, rate sensitive liabilities repricing within one year exceeded rate sensitive assets repricing within one year by $59 million, compared with June 30, 2003 when rate sensitive assets repricing within one year exceeded rate sensitive liabilities within one year by $1.453 billion. These results suggest an interest rate risk position which is not significantly mismatched; however, embedded options can change the repricing characteristics of assets, liabilities, and off-balance sheet hedges thereby changing the repricing position from that outlined above. Further, basis risk is not captured by repricing gap analysis. Because of these limitations, we use income simulation modeling to evaluate the impact of market interest rate changes on the Company's net interest income. 32 We may, from time-to-time, use derivative contracts to help manage or hedge our exposure to interest rate risk and to market value risk in conjunction with our mortgage banking operations. We currently use interest rate swaps, mortgage loan commitments and forward mortgage loan sales. Interest rate swaps are contracts with a third party (the "counter-party") to exchange interest payment streams based upon an assumed principal amount (the "notional amount"). The notional amount is not advanced from the counter-party. Swap contracts are carried at fair value on the consolidated balance sheet with the fair value representing the net present value of expected future cash receipts or payments based on market interest rates as of the balance sheet date. The fair values of the contracts change daily as market interest rates change. Further discussion of derivative instruments is included in Notes 1 and 18 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2003 Annual Report on Form 10-K and in Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements presented in this report. Holding residential mortgage loans for sale and committing to fund residential mortgage loan applications at specific rates exposes us to market value risk caused by changes in interest rates during the period from rate commitment issuance until sale. To minimize this risk, we enter into mandatory forward commitments to sell residential mortgage loans at the time a rate commitment is issued. These mandatory forward commitments and the related commitments to fund residential mortgage loan applications at specific rates are considered derivatives under SFAS 133. Our practice to hedge our market value risk with mandatory forward commitments has been effective and has not generated any material gains or losses. As of June 30, 2004, we had forward commitments to sell mortgage loans of $26.5 million. We performed simulations as of June 30, 2004 to evaluate the impact of market rate changes on net interest income over the following 12 months assuming limited changes to balance sheet levels over that time period. If market interest rates were to increase immediately by 100 or 200 basis points (a parallel and immediate shift along the yield curve) net interest income is expected to be lower by 0.5% and 1.7%, respectively, of what it would be if rates were to remain at June 30, 2004 levels. An immediate 50 basis point parallel decline in market rates is expected to reduce net interest income over the following 12 months by 0.5% of what it would be if rates remain constant over the entire time period at June 30, 2004 levels. Net interest income is not only affected by the level and direction of interest rates, but also by the shape of the yield curve, pricing spreads in relation to market rates, balance sheet growth, the mix of different types of assets or liabilities, and the timing of changes in these variables. A flattening of the curve would exacerbate the negative impact on net interest income. Scenarios different from those outlined above, whether different by only timing, level, or a combination of these or other factors, could produce different results. ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK There has been no material change in the information concerning quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk contained in Item 7A of Citizens' 2003 Annual Report on Form 10-K, except as set forth in Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Interest Rate Risk. ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of its management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Based upon that evaluation, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to cause the material information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 to be recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission's rules and forms. No changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2004 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting. 33 PART II - OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 2.
