PART I

ITEM 1 - DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

General

CSB Bancorp, Inc. (the Company or the "Registrant") was incorporated under the laws of the State of Ohio on June 28, 1991, at the direction of management of The Commercial and Savings Bank (the Bank) for the purpose of becoming a bank holding company by acquiring all outstanding shares of the Bank.  The Company acquired all such shares of the Bank following an interim bank merger, which transaction was consummated on January 31, 1992.  The Bank is a commercial bank chartered under the laws of the State of Ohio and was organized in 1879.  The Bank is the wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and its only significant asset.

The Bank provides retail and commercial banking services to its customers, including checking and savings accounts, time deposits, IRAs, safe deposit facilities, personal loans, commercial loans, real estate mortgage loans, installment loans, night depository facilities and trust services.  The Bank is a member of the Federal Reserve System, its deposits are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and it is regulated by the Ohio Division of Financial Institutions.

The Company, through the Bank, grants residential real estate, commercial real estate, consumer and commercial loans to customers located primarily in Holmes County and portions of surrounding counties in Ohio.  The general economic conditions in the Companys market area have been sound.  Unemployment statistics have generally been among the lowest in the state of Ohio and real estate values have been stable to rising.

Certain risks are involved in granting loans, primarily related to the borrowers ability and willingness to repay the debt.  Before the Bank extends a new loan to a customer, these risks are assessed through a review of the borrowers past and current credit history, collateral being used to secure the transaction in the event the customer does not repay the debt, borrowers character and other factors.  Once the decision has been made to extend credit, the Banks independent loan review function monitors these factors throughout the life of the loan.  For all commercial loan relationships greater than $100,000, the Banks internal credit department performs an annual risk rating review.  In addition to this review, an independent outside loan review firm is engaged to review all watch list and adversely classified credits, commercial loan relationships greater than $250,000, a sample of commercial loan relationships less than $250,000 and a sample of consumer/mortgage loans. In addition, any loan identified as a problem credit by management and/or the external loan review consultants is assigned to the Banks loan watch list, and is subject to ongoing review by the Banks credit department and the assigned loan officer to ensure appropriate action is taken when deterioration has occurred.

Commercial loans are variable as well as fixed rate and include operating lines of credit and term loans made to small businesses primarily based on their ability to repay the loan from the cash flow of the business.  Such loans are typically secured by business assets such as equipment and inventory, and occasionally by the business owners principal residence.  When the borrower is not an individual, the Bank generally obtains the personal guarantee of the business owner.  As compared to consumer lending, which includes single-family residence, personal installment loans and automobile loans, commercial lending entails significant additional risks.  These loans typically involve larger loan balances, are generally dependent on the cash flow of the business, and thus may be subject to a greater extent to adverse conditions in the general economy or in a specific industry.  Management reviews the borrowers cash flows when deciding whether to grant the credit to evaluate whether estimated future cash flows will be adequate to service principal and interest of the new obligation in addition to existing obligations.

Commercial real estate loans are primarily secured by borrower-occupied business real estate and are dependent on the ability of the related business to generate adequate cash flow to service the debt.  Commercial real estate loans are generally originated with a loan-to-value ratio of 75% or less.  Management performs much the same analysis when deciding whether to grant a commercial real estate loan as when deciding whether to grant a commercial loan.

Residential real estate loans carry both fixed and variable rates and are secured by the borrowers residence.  Such loans are made based on the borrowers ability to make repayment from employment and other income.  Management assesses the borrowers ability to repay the debt through review of credit history and ratings, verification of employment and other income, review of debt-to-income ratios and other measures of repayment ability.  The Bank generally makes these loans in amounts of 90% or less of the value of collateral.  An appraisal is obtained from a qualified real estate appraiser for substantially all loans secured by real estate.  Construction loans are secured by residential and business real estate that generally will be occupied by the borrower on completion.  While not contractually required to do so, the Bank usually makes the permanent loan at the end of the construction phase.  Construction loans also are made in amounts of 90% or less of the value of the collateral.

Installment loans to individuals include loans secured by automobiles and other consumer assets, including second mortgages on personal residences.  Consumer loans for the purchase of new automobiles generally do not exceed 80% of the purchase price of the car.  Loans for used cars generally do not exceed average wholesale or trade-in values as stipulated in a recent auto-industry used-car price guide.  Credit card and overdraft protection loans are unsecured personal lines of credit to individuals of demonstrated good credit character with reasonably assured sources of income and satisfactory credit histories.  Consumer loans generally involve more risk than residential mortgage loans because of the type and nature of collateral and, in certain types of consumer loans, absence of collateral.  Since these loans are generally repaid from ordinary income of the individual or family unit, repayment may be adversely affected by job loss, divorce, ill health or by general decline in economic conditions.  The Bank assesses the borrowers ability to make repayment through a review of credit history, credit ratings, debt-to-income ratios and other measures of repayment ability.

While the Companys chief decision-makers monitor the revenue streams of the various Company products and services, operations are managed and financial performance is evaluated on a Company-wide basis.  Accordingly, all of the Companys banking operations are considered by management to be aggregated in one reportable operating segment.

Employees

At December 31, 2001, the Bank employed 151 employees, 119 of which were employed on a full-time basis.  The Company has no separate employees not also employed by the Bank.  No employees are covered by collective bargaining agreements.  Management considers its employee relations to be good.

Competition

The Bank operates in a highly-competitive industry due, in part, to Ohio law permitting statewide branching by banks, savings and loan associations and credit unions.  Ohio law also permits nationwide interstate banking on a reciprocal basis.  In its primary market area of Holmes and surrounding counties, the Bank competes for new deposit dollars and loans with several other commercial banks, both large regional banks and smaller community banks, as well as savings and loan associations, credit unions, finance companies, insurance companies, brokerage firms and investment companies.  The ability to generate earnings is impacted, in part, by competitive pricing on loans and deposits and by changes in the rates on various U.S. Treasury and State and political subdivision issues which comprise a significant portion of the Banks investment portfolio, and which rates are used as indices on several loan products.  The Bank believes its presence in the Holmes County area provides the Bank with a competitive advantage due to its large asset base and ability to make loans and provide services to the local community.

On November 12, 1999, President Clinton signed into law the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 (Gramm-Leach) that permits bank holding companies to become financial holding companies and thereby affiliate with securities firms and insurance companies and engage in other activities that are financial in nature.  The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act may significantly change the competitive environment in which the Company conducts business.  See Financial Modernization for further discussion.

Supervision and Regulation

The Bank is subject to supervision, regulation and periodic examination by the State of Ohio Superintendent of Financial Institutions and the Federal Reserve Board.  Because the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insures its deposits, the Bank is also subject to certain regulations of that federal agency.  As a bank holding company, the Company is subject to supervision, regulation and periodic examination by the Federal Reserve Board.  The earnings of the Company and the Bank are affected by state and federal laws and regulations, and by policies of various regulatory authorities.  These policies include, for example, statutory maximum lending rates, requirements on maintenance of reserves against deposits, domestic monetary policies of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, United States fiscal policy, international currency regulations and monetary policies, certain restrictions on banks relationships with many phases of the securities business and capital adequacy and liquidity restraints.





Financial Modernization

Pursuant to Gramm-Leach, a bank holding company may become a financial holding company if each of its subsidiary banks is well capitalized under regulatory prompt corrective action provisions, is well managed, and has at least a satisfactory rating under the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) by filing a declaration that the bank holding company wishes to become a financial holding company.  No regulatory approval will be required for a financial holding company to acquire a company, other than a bank or savings association, engaged in activities that are financial in nature or incidental to activities that are financial in nature, as determined by the Federal Reserve Board.

Gramm-Leach defines financial in nature to include securities underwriting, dealing and market making; sponsoring mutual funds and investment companies; insurance underwriting and agency; merchant banking activities; and activities that the Board has determined to be closely related to banking.  Subsidiary banks of a financial holding company must continue to be well capitalized and well managed in order to continue to engage in activities that are financial in nature without regulatory actions or restrictions, which could include divestiture of the financial in nature subsidiary or subsidiaries.  In addition, a financial holding company or a bank may not acquire a company that is engaged in activities that are financial in nature unless each of the subsidiary banks of the financial holding company or the bank has CRA rating of satisfactory or better.

Written Agreement

The Company and the Bank entered into a Written Agreement with the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland and the Ohio Division of Financial Institutions in November of 2000 that is described elsewhere in this Annual Report.  While that Written Agreement does not specifically address whether the Company qualifies to be a financial holding company, Management believes that it is unlikely the Company would so qualify.  While Management does not anticipate that the failure to qualify as a financial holding company will materially adversely affect the operations, properties, financial condition or prospects of the Company, no assurances can be given.

|Total                                           



The weighted average yields are calculated using amortized cost of investments and are based on coupon rates for securities purchased at par value, and on effective interest rates considering amortization or accretion if securities were purchased at a premium or discount.  The weighted average yield on tax-exempt obligations is presented on a taxable-equivalent basis based on the Companys marginal federal income tax rate of 34%.  Other securities consist of Federal Reserve Bank and Federal Home Loan Bank stock bearing no stated maturity or yield and are not included in this analysis.

C.  Excluding holdings of U.S. Treasury securities and other agencies and corporations of the U.S. Government, there were no investments in securities of any one issuer that exceeded 10% of the Companys consolidated shareholders equity at December 31, 2001.

|Totals                                                                                                                                                        | $3,278 | $1,345 | $1,537 | $1,457 | $1,240
|                                                                                                                                                              |        |        |        |        |       

The policy for placing loans on nonaccrual status is to cease accruing interest on loans when management believes that collection of interest is doubtful, when commercial loans are past due as to principal and interest 90 days or more or when mortgage and consumer loans are past due as to principal and interest 120 days or more, except that in certain circumstances interest accruals are continued on loans deemed by management to be well-secured and in process of collection.  In such cases, loans are individually evaluated in order to determine whether to continue income recognition after 90 days beyond the due date.  However, the Written Agreement requires substantially all loans greater than 90 days past due to be placed on non-accrual.  When loans are placed on nonaccrual, any accrued interest is charged against interest income.  Consumer loans are not placed on non-accrual but are charged off after 120 days past due.

(d)  Impaired Loans - Information regarding impaired loans at December 31 is as follows:



|(In thousands of dollars)                                                                  | 2001   | 2000     | 1999   
|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | ------ | -------- | -------
|Balance of impaired loans at December 31                                                   | $4,303 | $11,967  | $2,544 
|Less portion for which no allowance for loan loss is allocated                             | 634    | 94       | 562    
|Portion of impaired loan balance for which an allowance for loan losses is allocated       | 3,669  | 11,873   | 1,982  
|Portion of allowance for loan losses allocated to the impaired loan balance at December 31 | $1,061 | $  3,276 | $   485



Interest income recognized on impaired loans during the year represented $787,000 while $887,000 would have been recognized had the loans been performing under their contractual terms.

Impaired loans are comprised of commercial and commercial real estate loans, and are carried at the present value of expected cash flows discounted at the loans effective interest rate or at fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent.  A portion of the allowance for loan losses is allocated to impaired loans.

Smaller-balance homogeneous loans are evaluated for impairment in total.  Such loans include residential first-mortgage loans secured by one- to four-family residences, residential construction loans, and automobile, home equity and second-mortgage loans less than $100,000.  Such loans are included in nonaccrual and past due disclosures in (a) and (b) above, but not in the impaired loan totals.  Commercial loans and mortgage loans secured by other properties are evaluated individually for impairment.  When analysis of borrower operating results and financial condition indicates that underlying cash flows of the borrowers business are not adequate to meet its debt service requirements, the loan is evaluated for impairment.  Impaired loans, or portions thereof, are charged off when deemed uncollectible.

The allowance for loan losses balance and provision charged to expense are determined by management based on periodic reviews of the loan portfolio, past loan loss experience, economic conditions and various other circumstances subject to change over time.  In making this judgment, management reviews selected large loans, as well as impaired loans, other delinquent, nonaccrual and problem loans and loans to industries experiencing economic difficulties.  The collectibility of these loans is evaluated after considering current operating results and financial position of the borrower, estimated market value of collateral, guarantees and the Companys collateral position versus other creditors.  Judgments, which are necessarily subjective, as to the probability of loss and amount of such loss are formed on these loans, as well as other loans taken together.

B.  The following schedule is a breakdown of the allowance for loan losses allocated by type of loan and related ratios.

While managements periodic analysis of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses may allocate portions of the allowance for specific problem-loan situations, the entire allowance is available for any loan charge-offs that occur.
