Chairman’s Message Annual Stockholders Meeting April 19, 2014

FCB continued to perform well in 2013 and is cautiously optimistic for 2014. FCB shareholders also continue to receive an above market return on their investments. Our solvency and liquidity continue to be significantly better than our competitors and this is for the protection of our depositors. FCB will always manage for optimum performance rather than reckless growth.

There were two major calamities in 2013: a 7.2 magnitude earthquake and super typhoon Yolanda. A calamity brings the best and the worst out of people. I believe that as an organization, FCB was able to stand the test of character. FCB provided assistance to the calamity victims but did not publicize its role.

FCB was able to resume operations immediately after the earthquake and typhoon such that our customers got access to financial services, despite a very challenging environment. Even in , FCB was one of the few banks that was able to resume operations far ahead of the others. The capability of the bank to respond well to adversity is not by chance. Our Disaster Recovery Plan enabled the bank to prepare for contingencies, and the dedication of our staff enabled us to implement such a program.

The world economy is expected to grow at 3% for 2014, anchored by the recovery of developed countries such as the US, Europe, and Japan. China and India will also continue to grow. Countries in East Asia continue to have good economic growth. However, there are global risks and certain countries will have adverse conditions.

The year 2014 will be challenging but the Philippine economy is still expected to grow at 6%. Some institutions have forecasted even higher growth rates. The US has started to taper off its stimulus program which will result in a reduction of the funds available for an emerging economy like the . The tapering off, expected slight increase in interest rates, and inflation will have a slight impact on growth. An increase in interest rates is expected. OFW, BPO, and consumer consumption will continue to be the major economic contributors for 2014. The real estate and construction industry will continue its frenzied activities but demand is expected to slow down.

FCB should now get ready for the impact of ASEAN on the Philippine economy. We believe that our strategies, infrastructure, and personnel will enable us to compete even in a more competitive market. As financial transactions become more global, the Philippine banks become dwarves against international banks if based on size. Size, too big to manage, and too much leverage are a dangerous combination. Productivity and the quality of service have always been the most important factors in ensuring sustainability.

2

I am very appreciative to the customers, shareholders and employees who have made FCB what it is today. We are cautiously optimistic for 2014 and expect continued growth of the business.

We thank the Lord for all the blessings and support.

Respectfully yours,

Richard Uy Chairman

President’s Report

2013: Another Year of Sustained Growth

The year 2013 yielded another year of sustained growth of the bank, amid intense competition in the banking industry and the slow global recovery. It was another year of achievement based on our defined strategy of growth.

Despite the series of calamities in 2013, I am indeed happy to report to you that the First Consolidated Bank continues to post sustained growth in all financial indicators and the opportunities for sustained growth in the years ahead are already in place.

The 7.2 magnitude earthquake and Super typhoon Yolanda brings out the best in FCB’s people and resources and put to test our Disaster Recovery and Preparedness Program with flying colors. We were among the first to resume operation both in and Tacloban, the epicenters of these twin calamities.

FCB’s management focused on its continuing core mandate of efficiently serving and managing the trilateral relationship between the various needs of our human resources, clients and the stockholders to better serve the community and the environment we operate. We take to heart our triple bottom line approach of sustained revenue growth, environmental concerns and social equity and development.

Our continuing investment in human resource development, information and communication technology modernization and upgrading of products and services to meet the needs of the community enabled the bank to maximize market share in our areas of operation.

The bank continued to open new branches and marketing centers in growth centers and the countryside where we can address the financial needs of a wider clientele. The bank strengthened its financial services and opened new products that are needed in the service areas. It has invested in more automated teller machines (ATMs) and electronic fund transfer/point of sale (EFT/POS) terminals.

The bank focused on its core businesses, doing business in the countryside and growth centers and catering to the retail markets, consumer market, agriculture sector, and micro, small and medium enterprises. In line with its commitment, the bank has continued to serve as a catalyst for development in the countryside and growth centers.

FCB made a strong financial performance and also increased its investments on people and community, particularly in the field of health, education, and livelihood. Its investments in people and the communities have created areas of opportunity in bringing together the interest of the bank and the communities.

DEPOSITS

Overall, the bank’s Deposits grew by P973 million, or 17.58 percent, from P5.537 billion in the previous year to P6.511 billion this year.

The bank’s Bills Payable decreased by 52.77 percent, from P2.278 billion in 2012 to P1.076 billion in 2013. The reduction is due to bank’s conscious decision to shift funding source from rediscounting to deposits which continued to grow at double digits.

This means that FCB has a strong solvency ratio, which is very important for depositors as a gauge of which bank to place their deposits.

FACILITIES

FCB acquired additional 22 automated teller machines (ATMs) from the United States. It also acquired additional dial up electronic fund transfer/point of sale terminals from the United States and 27 GPRS EFTPOS units from local telcos bringing the total number of ATMs to 140 and EFT/POS accredited merchants to 128.

PITAKArd

The debit card of the bank, PITAKArd, which was launched in the later part of 2009, is a very successful product. There are now a significant number of PITAKArd holders and growing very fast. Through the PITAKArd, an FCB depositor can access funds in any FCB ATMs or purchase goods and services in any electronic fund transfer/point of sale terminals in all FCB accredited merchants.

GEOGRAPHIC EXPANSION

As of today, the bank’s branches and marketing offices are in 40 provinces in , , and . Because of its marketing centers, its financial services cover wider service areas, virtually more provinces in the Visayas, Mindanao, and Luzon that are not reached by its branches.

PERSONNEL

As of end of December 2013, the total personnel of the bank is 503. Of this total number, 12 are Executive Officers and 93 are Managers, while 398 are Rank-and-File employees. It anticipates to have an additional 58 employees for the next twelve months.

14

As a regular part of its training for the year, the bank provides its employees a number of training programs to improve their capabilities, and attract and retain honest, devoted and competent personnel. The bank also provides its employees benefits, incentives and a retirement plan that are more than what are mandated by law. The employees also have a bonus program and a provident fund, which are fully funded by the bank and above the requirements of the law.

BENEFITS

The bank is providing regular employee fringe benefits, which include health care and hospitalization, group life insurance, rice subsidy, cash conversion of accrued vacation and sick leave credits, maternity and paternity leaves, fringe benefit loans, motor vehicle repairs for fieldmen, uniforms, and at the discretion of the management, year-end bonus, in addition to the government-mandated benefits.

Health Care and Hospitalization

The bank’s health care program continues to assist our employees and their dependents in case of hospitalization.

Retirement Plan

As usual, the bank’s retirement plan provides qualified employees cash benefits upon reaching the age of retirement. Upon attaining the normal retirement age of 60 years, an employee receives an amount as separation/retirement benefits the sum equivalent to 100 percent of his/her basic salary for every year of credited service.

Provident Fund

In addition to the retirement cash benefit, eligible employees upon retirement receive cash benefits from the bank’s provident fund. The FCB Provident Fund is unique in the sense that the fund is non-contributory. The bank does not assess contributions from employees but sets aside an amount from its income to build up the fund. FCB’s retirement and provident programs are far above what is required by law.

Employees Stock Option Plan

Unique to the bank is the giving to its employees the Employees Stock Option Plan (ESOP). When an employee acquires regular status, he can exercise his option to acquire a limited number of common stocks of the bank at par value. Because of this, most employees are shareholders of the bank.

15

The bank also supports annual activities for the employees such as the Motivational Seminars with well-known motivational speakers to enhance their personal well being and Sports fest which they can enjoy, relax and strengthen their bonding.

16

INVESTMENTS IN PEOPLE AND THE COMMUNITIES

Since the start, the First Consolidated Bank has been investing on people and communities to help create economic growth and prosperity in the bank service areas. From environment to education, health and livelihood, the bank’s community projects not only support its corporate goals but also encourage and collaborate with local government units and non-profit organizations to implement social change in a positive and sustainable way.

FCB supports a wide range of community development projects, in partnership with local government units, civic and religious organizations, and non-profit organizations. In the exercise of its corporate social responsibilities, the bank either sets aside substantial funds for projects or accesses grants from funding agencies.

FCB’s areas of concern in the community are health, education, livelihood, Eco-cultural, culture and arts, awards and recognition such as The Outstanding Boholano Around the World awards (TOBAW) as well as on emergency and relief operations.

FCB supports the Loboc Youth Ambassador Band, a poverty alleviation project that trains children 9-15 years old in notes reading and instrumentation. With their musical talents, these kids become scholars in the colleges and universities as members of the school bands. To date, the project has 150 full time scholars in BIT-International College, Bohol Island State University, Cristal-E College, University of Bohol and Holy Name University.

The bank believes that education is the greatest equalizer in life. In support to education, it grants college scholarship and recently offered slots for Law scholarship. It also provides funds for construction of school buildings, reference materials and computers to public elementary and high schools.

On health, the bank sponsors medical/surgical missions in partnership with Home Reach Foundation, LGUs and non-profit organization. FCB annually sets aside a considerable amount to Inyong Alagad in DYRD and Tabang Katilingban in DYTR for donation to indigents who seek immediate financial assistance through these radio programs.

FCB, in cooperation with the Province of Bohol, Home Reach Foundation and the DYRD Inyong Alagad Foundation has established the Bohol Medical Care Institute whose mandate is to provide affordable and quality diagnostic and other health services to the Boholano Community.

Through the FCB Foundation and the Philippine Business for Social Progress (PBSP) of which FCB and many top corporations in the country are members, many community projects have been implemented in the Banks service areas to promote livelihood and increase productivity of upland rice farmers, including constructions of small water impounding, multi- purpose centers, and common service facilities.

This is another good year for the bank with remarkable growth in profits and certainly another big opportunity for FCB to allocate more funds for investment to people and communities.

PROSPECTS FOR 2014 AND BEYOND

The economic prospect for the year 2014 and beyond is very challenging amid the forthcoming ASEAN integration. FCB has already set-up the core structure which can support its growth in the long term. However, we are cautiously optimistic and can’t be complacent considering the further intensification of competition. FCB will continue to invest on human resources, ICT, premises, and in community related projects. FCB is a work-in-progress and practices a process of continuous positive evolution.

FCB has a specific marketing approach and niche. FCB and its customers have a mutually beneficial relationship which supports a mutually long term engagement. The sustained performance of the bank is proof of such a relationship.

APPRECIATION

I would like to thank our customers for their loyal and continuing patronage with the bank, the shareholders for their trust and support and to all the directors, officers and staff of the bank. Their continuing dedication, teamwork, performance and integrity in the workplace, which is one of the best in the industry, have moved this bank forward. We also thank the Almighty God for His continued guidance and blessings.

Thank you very much.
