Note 5. Stock-Based Compensation
The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123R, Share-Based Payment (SFAS No. 123R) effective January 1, 2006 using the modified prospective method and as such results for prior periods have not been restated. Share-based compensation arrangements include stock options, restricted stock plans, performance-based awards, stock appreciation rights and employee stock purchase plans. SFAS No. 123R requires all share-based payments to employees to be valued using a fair value method on the date of grant and to be expensed based on that fair value over the applicable vesting period. The initial implementation had no effect on the Companys financial statements as all outstanding options were fully vested at December 31, 2005 and the Company has not issued new options in 2006.

Had compensation costs for the stock option plans in 2005 been determined based upon the fair value at the date of grant consistent with SFAS No. 123, pro forma net income and earnings per share for the six months ended June 30, 2005 would have been as follows:

As of June 30, 2006, there was no unrecognized compensation expense because all outstanding options were vested.
SFAS 123R requires the benefits of tax deductions in excess of grant-date fair value be reported as a financing cash flow. The Company had $19.5 thousand in tax deductions from the exercise of stock options in the second quarter of 2006.

Note 6. Pension Plan
The Company provides pension benefits for eligible employees through a defined benefit pension plan. Substantially all employees participate in the retirement plan on a non-contributing basis and are fully vested after 25 years of service. The components of net periodic pension cost are as follows:
Service cost
Interest cost
Expected return on plan assets
Amortization of prior service cost
Amortization of net loss
Net periodic benefit cost
The Company previously disclosed in its financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2005 that it expected to contribute $750 thousand to its pension plan in 2006. As of June 30, 2006, no contributions have been made. The Company continues to anticipate contributing $750 thousand in 2006.
On July 11, 2006 the Board of Directors of the Company voted to freeze the pension plan effective September 30, 2006. The Company is currently working on a notification that must be sent to employees by August 15, 2006.
Note 7. Earnings per Share
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, including the effect of dilutive potential common shares outstanding attributable to stock options.
Note 8. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In March 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 156, Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets an amendment of FASB Statement 140 (Statement 156). Statement 156 amends Statement 140 with respect to separately recognized servicing assets and liabilities. Statement 156 requires an entity to recognize a servicing asset or liability each time it undertakes an obligation to service a financial asset by entering into a servicing contract and requires all servicing assets and liabilities to be initially measured at fair value, if practicable. Statement 156 also permits entities to subsequently measure servicing assets and liabilities using an amortization method or fair value measurement method. Under the amortization method, servicing assets and liabilities are amortized in proportion to and over the estimated period of servicing. Under the fair value measurement method, servicing assets are measured at fair value at each reporting date and changes in fair value are reported in net income for the period the change occurs.
- 10 -
Adoption of Statement 156 is required as of the beginning of fiscal years beginning subsequent to September 15, 2006. Earlier adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an entitys fiscal year, provided the entity has not yet issued financial statements, including interim financial statements.
The Company does not expect the adoption of Statement 156 at the beginning of 2007 to have a material impact.

Earnings Summary
Net income for the second quarter of 2006 was $1.8 million as compared with $1.9 million earned in the comparable quarter in 2005, a decrease of 2.61%. The lower income is attributed to continued pressure on the net interest yield, increase in the loan loss provision and further branch expansion. Basic and diluted earnings per share for the second quarter of 2006 were $0.45. Basic earnings per share for the second quarter of 2005 were $0.46, or $0.45 on a fully diluted basis. Annualized return on average assets (ROA) for the second quarter of 2006 was 0.93% and 1.08% for the comparable period in 2005. Return on equity (ROE) was 10.09% for the second quarter of 2006 compared with 10.53% for the same period in 2005.
For the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, ROA was 0.91% and 1.14%, respectively. ROE was 9.81% in 2006 and 11.20% in 2005.
Net Interest Income
The principal source of earnings for the Company is net interest income. Net interest income is the difference between interest and fees generated by earning assets and interest expense paid to fund them. Changes in the volume and mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, as well as their respective yields and rates, have a significant impact on the level of net interest income. The net interest yield is calculated by dividing tax equivalent net interest income by average earning assets.
Net interest income, on a fully tax equivalent basis, was $6.3 million in the second quarter of 2006, an increase of $104 thousand, or 1.67% from the second quarter of 2005. The net interest yield was 3.45% in the second quarter of 2006 as compared to 3.87% in 2005.
For the six months ended June 30, 2006 net interest income on a fully tax equivalent basis decreased $22 thousand, or 0.18%, over the comparable period in 2005. Comparing the first six months of 2006 to 2005, average loans increased $84.9 million, or 19.58%, while investment securities decreased $7.8 million, or 3.82%. Average earning assets increased 11.86% and the net interest yield decreased from 3.89% in 2005 to 3.47% in 2006. Although the net interest yield decreased by 42 basis points, the significant increase in loan volume lessened the negative effect on net interest income.
Tax equivalent interest income increased $2.1 million, or 22.84%, in the second quarter of 2006 compared to the second quarter of 2005. Average earning assets grew $89.2 million, or 13.88%. Total average loans increased $96.0 million, or 22.10%, while average investment securities decreased $6.4 million, or 3.17%. The yield on earning assets increased for the second quarter of 2006 compared to the second quarter of 2005 by 44 basis points. Most of the increase was due to increasing yields in the loan portfolio.
Interest expense increased $1.9 million, or 70.3%, in the second quarter of 2006 from the second quarter of 2005 while interest-bearing liabilities increased $93.6 million or 18.30% in the second quarter of 2006 over the same period in 2005. The cost of funding those liabilities increased 95 basis points from 2005. For the six months ended June 30, 2006 interest expense increased $3.5 million, or 64.93%, over the same period in 2005.
The following table shows an analysis of average earning assets, interest-bearing liabilities and rates and yields. Nonaccrual loans are included in loans outstanding.

Provision for Loan Losses
The provision for loan losses is a charge against earnings necessary to maintain the allowance for loan losses at a level consistent with managements evaluation of the portfolio.
The provision for loan losses was $600 thousand for the first six months of 2006, up from $450 thousand in the comparable period in 2005. The increase in the provision was due to strong loan growth and not higher charge offs. Loans charged off (net of recoveries) in the first six months of 2006 were $499 thousand compared with loans charged off (net of recoveries) of $574 thousand in the first six months of 2005. On an annualized basis net loan charge offs were 0.18% of total net loans for the first six months of 2006 compared with 0.27% for the same period in 2005.
On June 30, 2006, nonperforming assets totaled $422 thousand compared with $585 thousand on June 30, 2005. The June 2006 total consisted of $257 thousand in nonaccrual loans and $165 thousand in a former branch site listed for sale. The June 2005 total consisted of $420 thousand in nonaccrual loans and $165 thousand in a former branch site listed for sale. Loans still accruing interest but past due 90 days or more decreased to $356 thousand as of June 30, 2006 compared with $871 thousand as of June 30, 2005.
The allowance for loan losses on June 30, 2006 was $4.6 million, compared with $4.2 million on June 30, 2005. It represented a multiple of 10.78 times nonperforming assets and 17.70 times nonperforming loans. Nonperforming loans includes nonaccrual and restructured loans. The allowance for loan losses was 0.83% and 0.96% of total loans on June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively.
Noninterest Income
For the second quarter of 2006, noninterest income increased $473 thousand, or 18.55%, over the same period in 2005. The unwinding of a Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) advance contributed to $237 thousand of this increase. For the six months ended June 30, 2006, noninterest income increased $755 thousand or 14.93% over the same period in 2005. The growth in noninterest income is attributed to the FHLB advance transaction and increases in service charges on deposit accounts and other service charges, commissions and fees. The increase in service charges on deposit accounts is attributed to the increase of over 6,900 consumer checking accounts as of June 30, 2006. The increase in accounts is related to the bank wide new consumer checking account initiative that began in April 2005. The service charge commissions and fees related income is higher due to an increased volume of debit card transactions. The increased volume of debit card transactions is also related to the bank wide new consumer checking account initiative.
Noninterest Expenses
For the second quarter of 2006, noninterest expenses increased $564 thousand, or 9.76%, over the second quarter of 2005. For the six months ended June 30, 2006 noninterest expenses increased $1.2 million or 10.69% over the same period in 2005. For the six months ended June 30, 2006 salaries and employee benefits increased by $562 thousand, or 8.05% over the same period in 2005 as a result of normal yearly salary increases and an increase of 11 in the Companys full time equivalent (FTE) positions. The staffing increases were due to the opening of two new branches in October 2005 and February 2006.
The increases in the various categories of noninterest expense were directly related to the Companys branch expansion and increase of consumer checking accounts.
The Company anticipates a continued trend of increases in noninterest expense in future periods. Salaries and employee benefits, as well as occupancy expenses, will continue to increase as the Company expands its branch system in the future. The Company also expects increases to back office staffing expense in order to support its growing branch system. In an effort to keep noninterest expense under control, the Board of Directors voted to freeze the Companys pension plan effective September 30, 2006.
Balance Sheet Review
At June 30, 2006, the Company had total assets of $797.0 million, an increase of 7.71% from $740.0 million at December 31, 2005. Net loans as of June 30, 2006 were $544.9 million, an increase of 11.15% from $490.2 million at December 31, 2005. The Company realized significant growth in the real estate category of loans. Note 3 of the consolidated financial statements details the loan volume by category as of June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005.
- 14 -
Average assets as of June 30, 2006 were $765.2 million compared to $688.5 million as of June 30, 2005. The growth in assets in 2006 was due to the growth in average loans, which increased 19.58% as compared to the same period in 2005.
Total investment securities at June 30, 2006 were $189.4 million, a decrease of 3.41% from $196.1 million on December 31, 2005. The Companys goal is to provide maximum return on the investment portfolio within the framework of its asset/liability objectives. The objectives include managing interest sensitivity, liquidity and pledging requirements. Current growth as noted in the above paragraph has occurred in the loan portfolio. The reduction in investment securities helped fund this loan growth.
At June 30, 2006, total deposits increased to $556.8 million, up 3.74% from $536.7 million on December 31, 2005. Deposit growth, especially demand deposit growth is not as strong as Management would like. Management has developed an incentive plan for the second half of 2006 to reverse the slowing pace of noninterest-bearing and savings deposits.
FHLB advances increased to $115.0 million, an increase of 43.75% from $80.0 million on December 31, 2005. FHLB advances were used to fund the majority of our loan growth.
Capital Resources
Under the banking regulations, Total Capital is composed of core capital (Tier 1) and supplemental capital (Tier 2). Tier 1 capital consists of common stockholders equity and retained earnings less goodwill. Tier 2 capital consists of certain qualifying debt and a qualifying portion of the allowance for loan losses. The following is a summary of the Companys capital ratios at June 30, 2006. As shown below, these ratios were all well above the regulatory minimum levels.
Tier 1
Total Capital
Tier 1 Leverage
Quarter-end book value was $17.94 in 2006 and $17.65 in 2005. Cash dividends were $1.4 million or $0.34 per share in the six months ended June 30, 2006, and $1.3 million or $0.32 per share in the six months ended June 30, 2005. The common stock of the Company has not been extensively traded.
Liquidity
Liquidity is the ability of the Company to meet present and future financial obligations through either the sale or maturity of existing assets or the acquisition of additional funds through liability management. Liquid assets include cash, interest-bearing deposits with banks, federal funds sold, investments in securities and loans maturing within one year.
In addition, secondary sources are available through the use of borrowed funds if the need should arise. The Companys sources of funds include a large stable deposit base and secured advances from FHLB. As of the end of the second quarter 2006, the Company had $122.4 million in FHLB borrowing availability. The Company has available short-term unsecured borrowed funds in the form of federal funds with correspondent banks. As of the end of the second quarter 2006, the Company had $40.0 million available in federal funds to handle any short-term borrowing needs.
- 15 -
Management is not aware of any market or institutional trends, events or uncertainties that are expected to have a material effect on the liquidity, capital resources or operations of the Company. Nor is management aware of any current recommendations by regulatory authorities that would have a material effect on liquidity, capital resources or operations. The Companys internal sources of such liquidity are deposits, loan and investment repayments and securities available for sale. The Companys primary external source of liquidity is advances from the FHLB of Atlanta.
As a result of the Companys management of liquid assets, availability of borrowed funds and the ability to generate liquidity through liability funding, management believes that the Company maintains overall liquidity sufficient to satisfy its depositors requirements and to meet its customers future borrowing needs.
Contractual Obligations
In the normal course of business there are various outstanding contractual obligations of the Company that will require future cash outflows. In addition, there are commitments and contingent liabilities, such as commitments to extend credit that may or may not require cash outflows.
The Company has signed two contracts to purchase property for future branch sites. One contract is for a purchase price of $1.4 million, which amount will be paid in full at closing in August 2006. The second contract is for $4.0 million, which will be paid in full at the time of closing, which is currently scheduled for September 2006. As of June 30, 2006, there have been no other material changes outside the ordinary course of business in the Companys contractual obligations disclosed in the Companys annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
An important element of earnings performance and the maintenance of sufficient liquidity is proper management of the interest sensitivity gap and liquidity gap. The interest sensitivity gap is the difference between interest sensitive assets and interest sensitive liabilities in a specific time interval. This gap can be managed by repricing assets or liabilities, which are variable rate instruments, by replacing an asset or liability at maturity or by adjusting the interest rate during the life of the asset or liability. Matching the amounts of assets and liabilities maturing in the same time interval helps to hedge interest rate risk and to minimize the impact of rising or falling interest rates on net interest income.
The Company determines the overall magnitude of interest sensitivity risk and then formulates policies governing asset generating and pricing, funding sources and pricing, and off-balance sheet commitments. These decisions are based on managements expectations regarding future interest rate movements, the state of the national and regional economy, and other financial and business risk factors. The Company uses computer simulations to measure the effect of various interest rate scenarios on net interest income. This modeling reflects interest rate changes and the related impact on net interest income and net income over specified time horizons.
Based on scheduled maturities only, the Company was liability sensitive as of June 30, 2006. It should be noted, however, that non-maturing deposit liabilities totaling $200.1 million, which consist of interest checking, money market, and savings accounts, are less interest sensitive than other market driven deposits. In a rising rate environment these deposit rates have historically lagged behind the changes in earning asset rates, thus mitigating the impact from the liability sensitivity position. The asset/liability model allows the Company to reflect the fact that non-maturing deposits are less rate sensitive than other deposits by using a decay rate. The decay rate is a type of artificial maturity that simulates maturities for non-maturing deposits over the number of months that more closely reflects historic data. Using the decay rate, the model reveals that the Company is fairly balanced between assets and liabilities.

When the Company is asset sensitive, net interest income should improve if interest rates rise since assets will reprice faster than liabilities. Conversely, if interest rates fall, net interest income should decline, depending on the optionality (prepayment speeds) of the assets. When the Company is liability sensitive, net interest income should fall if rates rise and rise if rates fall.
The most likely scenario represents the rate environment as management forecasts it to occur. From this base, rate shocks in 100 basis point increments are applied to see the impact on the Companys earnings. The rate shock model reveals that a 100 basis point decrease in rates would cause an approximately 2.21% decrease in net income. The rate shock model reveals that a 100 basis point rise in rates would cause an approximately 0.13% decrease in net income and that a 200 basis point rise in rates would cause an approximately 0.14% increase in net income at June 30, 2006.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
The Company maintains a system of disclosure controls and procedures that is designed to ensure that material information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions to be made regarding required disclosure. As required, management, with the participation of the Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, the Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures were operating effectively to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC.
The Companys management is also responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. No changes in the Companys internal control over financial reporting occurred during the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2006 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control over financial reporting.
The Companys management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all error and fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, provides reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. The design of a control system reflects resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because there are inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been or will be detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events. There can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
