Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
The following is a discussion of the Company’s financial condition as of June 30, 2002 compared to December 31, 2001, and the results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2001. These comments should be read in conjunction with the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying footnotes appearing in this report.
Results of Operations
Net Interest Income
For the six months ended June 30, 2002, net interest income increased $108,360, or 5.58%, as compared to the same period in 2001. Interest and fees on loans decreased $271,551, or 8.47% to $2,934,769 for the six months ended June 30, 2002 as compared to the same period in 2001. Other interest income, which includes interest on federal funds sold, decreased $313,708 or 65.46% to $165,504 for the six months ended June 30, 2002 when compared to the same period in 2001. In addition, interest income on securities decreased $93,013 to $363,432 for the six months ended June 30, 2002 when compared to the same six months ended June 30, 2001. Interest expense decreased $786,632 to $1,413,497 for the six months ended June 30, 2002 when compared to the same period in 2001. The net interest margin realized on earning assets increased from 3.71% for the six months ended June 30, 2001 to 3.79% for the same period in 2002. The interest rate spread also increased by 32 basis points from 3.01% at June 30, 2001 to 3.33% at June 30, 2002.
Net interest income increased $101,759 or 10.58% to $1,063,531 for the quarter ended June 30, 2002 when compared to the same quarter ended June 30, 2001. Interest on loans and fees decreased $141,668 or 8.78% to $1,472,218 for the quarter ended June 30, 2002 when compared to the same period in 2001. Other interest income decreased $139,334 from $220,983 for the quarter ended June 30, 2001 to $81,649 for the quarter ended June 30, 2002. The interest income on securities for the quarter ending June 30, 2002 increased $9,892 to $190,806 when compared to the same period in 2001. Interest expense on deposits decreased 35.38% to $372,869 for the quarter ended June 30, 2002 when compared to the same period in 2001. The net interest margin realized on earning assets increased from 3.73% for the quarter ended June 30, 2001 to 3.91% for the quarter ended June 30, 2002. The interest rate spread also increased from 3.00% for the quarter ended June 30, 2001 to 3.34% for the same period in 2002.
Provision and Allowance for Loan Losses
The provision for loan losses is the charge to operating earnings that management believes is necessary to maintain the allowance for possible loan losses at an adequate level. For the six months ended June 30, 2002, the provision charged to expense was $150,000, as compared to $142,000 for the same period in 2001. For the quarter ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, the provision charged to expense was $75,000 and $80,000, respectively. There are risks inherent in making all loans, including risks with respect to the period of time over which loans may be repaid, risks resulting from changes in economic and industry conditions, risks inherent in dealing with individual borrowers, and, in the case of a collateralized loan, risks resulting from uncertainties about the future value of the collateral. We maintain an allowance for loan losses based on, among other things, historical experience, an evaluation of economic conditions, and regular reviews of delinquencies and loan portfolio quality. Our judgment about the adequacy of the allowance is based upon a number of assumptions about future events, which we believe to be reasonable, but which may not prove to be accurate. Thus, there is a risk that charge-offs in future periods could exceed the allowance for loan losses or that substantial additional increases in the allowance for loan losses could be required. Additions to the allowance for loan losses would result in a decrease of our net income and, possibly, our capital.
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income during the six months ended June 30, 2002 was $233,175, an increase of $10,911 or 4.91% from the comparable period in 2001. Service charges on deposit accounts increased $20,062 from the period ended June 30, 2001 to $175,126 for the period ended June 30, 2002. The increase is partially attributable to a shift in deposit accounts to noninterest bearing checking accounts. Other income decreased 13.62% to $58,049 for the six months ended June 30, 2002 when compared to the same period ended June 30, 2001.
For the quarter ended June 30, 2002, noninterest income increased $6,920 or 6.46% over the same period in 2001. This increase is primarily due to service charges, which increased 13.33% from the quarter ended June 30, 2001 to $86,880 for the quarter ended June 30, 2002. The increase in noninterest bearing deposit accounts led to the increase in service charges.

Noninterest Expense
Total noninterest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2002 was $1,081,599 or 2.83% lower than the six months ended June 30, 2001. Salaries and employee benefits increased from $538,979 for the six months ended June 30, 2001 to $561,646 for the six months ended June 30, 2002. This increase is primarily attributable to annual pay raises. Other operating expenses decreased $58,118 or 15.62% to $313,951 for the six months ended June 30, 2002 when compared to the same period in 2001. Other operating expenses included a one time writedown of $20,983 on the disposal of other real estate owned during 2001 that did not exist in 2002.
For the quarter ended June 30, 2002, noninterest expense decreased $12,217 or 2.21% over the same period in 2001. This increase was largely attributable to the decrease of other operating expenses of $26,510 or 14.62% to $154,834 for the quarter ended June 30, 2002 when compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2001. Salaries and employee benefits also increased $20,134 or 7.54% to $287,056 during the same comparable period for the quarter ended June 30, 2002.
Income Taxes
The income tax provision for the six months ended June 30, 2002 was $334,099 as compared to $281,901 for the same period in 2001. This increase was primarily a result of an increase in income before taxes. The effective tax rates were 31.76% and 31.01% for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and June 30, 2001, respectively. The effective tax rates were 32.35% and 31.38% for the quarter ended June 30, 2002 and June 30, 2001, respectively.
Net Income
The combination of the above factors resulted in net income for the six months ended June 30, 2002 of $717,685 as compared to $627,117 for the same period in 2001. This represents an increase of $90,568 or 14.44% over the same period in 2001. Net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2002 was $380,516, or 27.00% higher than for the same period in 2001. The increase in net interest income and decrease in noninterest expenses resulted in the increase in the six and three month period.
Assets and Liabilities
During the first six months of 2002, total assets increased $3,967,950, or 3.58%, when compared to December 31, 2001. This increase was primarily a result of an increase in securities available for sale and loans. Total investment securities increased $2,874,881 from December 31, 2001 to $18,049,954 at June 30, 2002. Loans increased $1,822,533, or 2.55%, to $73,181,463 at June 30, 2002. Total deposits also increased by 3.85%, or $3,791,993, from December 31, 2001 to $102,212,304 at June 30, 2002. While noninterest-bearing deposits increased 15.97% from December 31, 2001 to $10,704,231, interest-bearing deposits also increased $2,317,778 or 2.6% to $91,508,073 at June 30, 2002.
Loans
The demand for loans continued to increase in the Walterboro marketplace during the first six months of 2002. Gross loans increased $1,822,533 or 2.55% during the period. Balances within the major loans receivable categories as of June 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001 are as follows:

Liquidity
Liquidity needs are met by the Company through scheduled maturities of loans and investments on the asset side and through pricing policies on the liability side for interest-bearing deposit accounts. The level of liquidity is measured by the loan-to-total funds ratio, which was at 71.27% at June 30, 2002 and 72.09% at December 31, 2001.

COMMUNITYCORP
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition—continued
Securities available-for-sale, which totaled $14,544,921 at June 30, 2002, serve as a ready source of liquidity. The Company also has lines of credit available with correspondent banks to purchase federal funds. At June 30, 2002, unused lines of credit totaled $3,000,000.
Critical Accounting Policies
We have adopted various accounting policies which govern the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States in the preparation of our financial statements. Our significant accounting policies are described in the footnotes to the consolidated financial statements at December 31, 2001 as filed on our annual report on Form 10-K. Certain accounting policies involve significant judgments and assumptions by us which have a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities. We consider these accounting policies to be critical accounting policies. The judgments and assumptions we use are based on historical experience and other factors, which we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Because of the nature of the judgments and assumptions we make, actual results could differ from these judgments and estimates which could have a material impact on our carrying values of assets and liabilities and our results of operations.
We believe the allowance for loan losses is a critical accounting policy that requires the most significant judgments and estimates used in preparation of our consolidated financial statements. Refer to the portion of this discussion that addresses our allowance for loan losses for a description of our processes and methodology for determining our allowance for loan losses.
Capital Resources
Total shareholders’ equity increased from $11,002,111 at December 31, 2001 to $11,535,209 at June 30, 2002. The increase of $533,098 is attributable to earnings for the period of $717,685. The increase was also attributable to an increase of $59,159 in the fair value for securities available for sale for the period. Equity was negatively affected by the purchase of treasury stock of $79,900 during the period and by the payment of dividends which totaled $163,846.
Bank holding companies, such as the Company, and their banking subsidiaries are required by banking regulators to meet certain minimum levels of capital adequacy, which are expressed in the form of certain ratios. Capital is separated into Tier 1 capital (essentially common shareholders’ equity less intangible assets) and Tier 2 capital (essentially the allowance for loan losses limited to 1.25% of risk-weighted assets). The first two ratios, which are based on the degree of credit risk in the Company’s assets, provide the weighting of assets based on assigned risk factors and include off-balance sheet items such as loan commitments and stand-by letters of credit. The ratio of Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets must be at least 4.0% and the ratio of total capital (Tier 1 capital plus Tier 2 capital) to risk-weighted assets must be at least 8.0%. The capital leverage ratio supplements the risk-based capital guidelines. Banks and bank holding companies are required to maintain a minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to adjusted quarterly average total assets of 3.0%.
The following table summarizes the Bank’s risk-based capital at June 30, 2002:

The Federal Reserve Board has similar requirements for bank holding companies. The Company is currently not subject to these requirements because the Federal Reserve guidelines contain an exemption for bank holding companies of less than $150,000,000 in consolidated assets.

Off-Balance Sheet Risk
Through the operations of our Bank, we have made contractual commitments to extend credit in the ordinary course of our business activities. These commitments are legally binding agreements to lend money to our customers at predetermined interest rates for a specified period of time. At June 30, 2002, we had issued commitments to extend credit of $4,720,000 and standby letters of credit of $434,000 through various types of commercial lending arrangements. We evaluate each customer’s credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by us upon extension of credit, is based on our credit evaluation of the borrower. Collateral varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment, commercial and residential real estate.
Regulatory Matters
The management of the Company is not aware of any current recommendations by regulatory authorities which, if they were to be implemented, would have a material effect on liquidity, capital resources or operations.
