TOWARDS TOMORROW
CHAIRMAN’S REPORT ECONOMIC OVERVIEW The projections for some level of recovery in the global economy in 2012 did not materialize and though there have been positive signs in the USA, the increasing level of economic uncertainty in Europe has been cause for concern. This is illustrated by the fact that GDP in the USA grew by 0.4% whereas Germany declined from 3.1% to 0.9%, Spain from 0.4% to (1.5)%, France from 1.7% to 0.1% and the United Kingdom from 0.7% to (0.4) %. In essence the uncertainties about the global economy shifted to Europe. Overall, it was another difficult year for the global economy, which saw world output declining from 3.8% in 2011 to 3.3% in 2012. Against this backdrop of uncertainty and lack of growth in the markets from which most of its visitors come, Antigua & Barbuda’s vital tourism sector evidenced no noticeable improvement. However, there was reportedly marginal growth in construction, transportation and the hotels and restaurants sector. As a consequence, GDP for Antigua & Barbuda was expected to grow by 1.2% for 2012, which, although not significant represents an improvement over the negative 3% realized in 2011. The scarcity of Foreign Direct Investments (FDI) continues to negatively impact the country’s economy and unemployment remains high. So that while there would have been some growth in GDP, it was not sufficient to impact the economy in a way that would have caused an increase in business activity, construction and reduced unemployment. Consequently, there was no easing of loan delinquency or the reduction of bad debts at financial institutions. PERFORMANCE - ACB GROUP I am pleased to report that despite the financial and economic challenges that have battered the local economy and by extension financial institutions, over an unusually extended period of time, the Antigua Commercial Bank Group recorded net income of $15.1 million, which was significantly higher than the $7.8 million generated the previous year. This, in my view, represented a very strong performance especially when viewed in the context of the difficult economic and financial environment in which the Group operated in fiscal 2012. In terms of the Balance Sheet, the Group’s asset base grew by $45 million with loans and advances, the Group’s core business activity, increasing by $22 million and represented 50% of the growth in assets. As was the case in previous fiscals, the Group’s liquidity remained consistently strong throughout fiscal 2012 and consequently, it has always been in a very good position to meet all its commitments. ACB MORTGAGE & TRUST COMPANY LTD. (the Subsidiary) Notwithstanding the less than favourable economic environment, and more specifically, the continued downward push of interest rates on mortgages from a very competitive mortgage environment and relatively low rates of return on deposit investments, ACB Mortgage & Trust Company Ltd.’s performance recorded an expansion to its asset base by 6.48% to $266.2 million from $250 million. The subsidiary’s core business of loans and advances recorded growth with a 6.66% increase to $177.7 million from $166.6 million. The outcome was supported by a 4.76% expansion over the deposit liabilities to $213.6 million from $203.9 million.
ACB Mortgage & Trust Company Ltd. recorded growth in its interest income by 6.01% to $19.4 million from $18.3 million. At the same time the subsidiary recorded a decline in its interest expense by 8.26% to $10 million from $10.9 million on deposit liabilities that witnessed growth of $9.70 million. As a result the Subsidiary recorded net profit of $6.2 million, an increase of 58.97% as compared with $3.9 million for the previous year. STRATEGIC INITIATIVES Under the Group’s Strategic Plan 2012-2016, initiatives to include, but not limited to the following will be pursued:(i) Increased focus on maintaining one brand of customer service excellence; (ii) Growth by strengthening the asset base and increased market share of deposits and loans; (iii) Operational efficiency; (iv) Heightened attention to loan recoveries and minimization of loan losses; (v) Aggressive pursuit of good lending opportunities; (vi) Developing a Corporate Risk Management culture; (vii) Continued increase in staff morale and the development of core competencies to meet strategic objectives; (viii) Share Capital expansion to facilitate further growth. During the fiscal, as part of our customer service improvement strategy, we replaced and at the same time relocated one of our ATM machines to a site we considered more convenient for our customers. With a total of nine (9) ATM machines available, we are easily the financial institution with the most ATM machines within the State of Antigua and Barbuda, a position we intend to maintain well into the future as part of our Strategic Plan. Steps were also taken to strengthen our technology platform where security is concerned and this is ongoing. We also embarked on a major renovation project designed to improve the appearance and durability of our Head Office building on Thames & St. Mary’s Streets, St. John’s, Antigua. ACB - COMMITTED TO OUR ROLE AS A GOOD CORPORATE CITIZEN The community plays a pivotal role in our past, our present and most importantly our future. Therefore, Antigua Commercial Bank takes great pleasure in consistently giving back to our community, the core of our very existence. We give back to the Youth by ensuring that they are aware of the tertiary level educational opportunities that are available. This is done through our collaboration with the Ministry of Education to host the International College Fair. Additionally each year a student is awarded the Antigua Commercial Bank Louis H. Lockhart Scholarship.

The Group at every opportunity encourages its staff to exercise regularly, eat healthily and get regular checkups; a healthy staff is a healthy ACB which is better able to serve its community. As a part of the Group’s Healthy Lifestyle Programme this fiscal and in support of Breast Friends- Women In Touch, the staff participated in Pink Friday where Management and Staff donned their pink shirts, making the bold statement “Early detection saves lives”. This was done to help promote Breast Cancer Awareness to our customers and other stakeholders. The Bank during our anniversary celebrations and through the Going Green Programme, and with the assistance of the Environmental Division in the Ministry of Agriculture provided an oasis away from the hustle and bustle of campus life to the students at Antigua State College. This is the first stage of the Group’s plans for a greener Antigua and Barbuda. Our Culture helps to define us as a people and it is the Group’s responsibility to embed lifelong activities in our community. As such the Group continues its support to the growth of the pan movement in Antigua and Barbuda through our sponsorship of the annual Carnival Panorama Competition and the Schools Independence Panorama Competition. The ACB Team is committed to giving assistance to the less fortunate. To this end, each year we visit the Fiennes Institute, bearing gifts and a cheerful spirit. The ACB staff continued the Christmas Pantry Initiative with the help of the Social Outreach Unit of the Mount St John Medical Centre. Each year families are identified and are presented with much needed assistance. We successfully hosted our annual Christmas in the Park, another community partner event that enabled the provision of much needed financial assistance to the Amazing Grace Home. Antigua Commercial Bank has always prided itself on its commitment to community. In the past, we have contributed to many worthy causes ranging from social to academic, from culture to athletics but our goal is to do more. We exist to create wealth for our customers, investors, staff and communities but also to assist our predecessors who would have laid the foundation that we are now building on - to inspire, support, and lead our youths, our small to large businesses, and our entrepreneurs- towards building a better tomorrow for themselves and the generations to follow. In essence, we are contributing to a future, not only prosperous in wealth but in compassion, intelligence, strength of character, and a drive to succeed. HR ACHIEVEMENTS The Employee of Year Award recognition programme continued in earnest during the fiscal and three employees were honoured for their performances at an Award Ceremony held subsequent to the fiscal year. This is a programme that gives me a great deal of satisfaction, and is indeed a source of pride for the Board, knowing that our employees are being rewarded for excellence in the level of service they provide to our customers and for their generally high level of performance. The Group continued to recognize and appreciate the need to train its employees in order to equip them with the knowledge and skills required to do their jobs effectively and well. Therefore, as in previous years, training internally and externally was carried out extensively to the benefit of many employees and by extension, the ACB Group. LOOKING AHEAD Strong and effective Corporate Governance Practices by members of the Board of Directors and Management of the Group have been and continued to be the key drivers of our operations.
B U I LDI NG
TOWARDS TOMORROW Notwithstanding the extended difficult global economic conditions, which continued to negatively impact the banking industry worldwide and in the region, the Group has remained profitable due to our focus on good corporate governance coupled with vigilant and effective leadership. The initial predictions from many credible sources were that the economic turmoil, which surfaced in 2008, would likely continue into 2015 depending on how quickly the economies of the United States and Europe recover. However, although there have been encouraging signs of recovery in the United States of America albeit tenuous at this stage, Europe’s economic troubles have worsened with Greece, Spain, Italy and perhaps the strongest of them all, Germany, experiencing varying degrees of problems, which have placed tremendous hardships on their populace. With this uncertainty hovering over us, it is possible that the trickledown effect of any recovery in Antigua & Barbuda’s major tourism market, the United States of America, positively impacting our local economy could be protracted. Notwithstanding the continued bleak outlook and though cautious, we remain optimistic that our staff possesses the experience and knowledge required to maintain the Group on its profitable path through the extended economic turbulence. We shall continue to be guided by our established tradition of Strength, Service and Solutions and in delivering wealth to all. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Our customers, shareholders and other stakeholders have stood by us throughout these challenging economic times and on behalf of the Board of Directors, I express my deep gratitude and appreciation for their loyalty, support and confidence in the ACB Group and for continuing to share in our journey. I also thank our staff for their support and continued invaluable contribution to the Group’s good financial results in fiscal 2012 and their dedication to excellence over the years

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
The other major highlights of the Group’s performance are discussed below: INTEREST INCOME Total Interest Income increased by $1.52 million or 3% compared to fiscal 2011. Specifically, income from loans increased by $2.02 million or 4% but income from deposits and investments declined by $0.50 million or 5% due to lower rates of interest in an environment where liquidity in the Eastern Caribbean Currency Union was generally high.

NET INCOME As a result of the significant reduction in loan loss provisioning and interest expenses and growth in interest income, the Group realized a consolidated net income of $15.1 million, which was $7.4 million more than that generated the previous fiscal. This result represents a solid performance particularly when viewed against the high level of unemployment, that has inevitably affected many borrowers’ ability to service their loans and the significant decline in sales caused by the severe downturn in the economy.
OTHER AREAS OF THE GROUP’S PERFORMANCE AT A GLANCE
Amount in millions
ASSETS The Group’s assets continued its consistent growth path. In this regard, assets grew by $45 million or 5% and represent another encouraging feature of the Group’s performance for fiscal 2012. The major single contributor to asset growth was the increase of $22 million in loans.
LOANS AND ADVANCES Good lending opportunities were few and far apart and this was hardly surprising considering the difficult economic and financial challenges banking institutions have experienced since 2008. Nevertheless, the Group’s loans portfolio grew by $22 million or 3.8% and the Group’s liquidity was more than adequate to fund the growth.

To the Shareholders of Antigua Commercial Bank Limited We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Antigua Commercial Bank Limited and its subsidiaries (the ‘Group’), which comprise the consolidated statement of financial position as of September 30, 2012, and the consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory notes. Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards and for such internal control relevant as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditors’ Responsibility Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors’ judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditors consider internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion In our opinion, these consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Group as of September 30, 2012 and its financial performance and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards.
