3. | Earnings Per Share (“EPS”).Earnings per share (“EPS”) of common stock has been computed on the basis of the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Outstanding stock options and warrants are considered dilutive securities for purposes of calculating diluted EPS which is computed using the treasury stock method. All per share amounts have been adjusted to reflect the three-for-two stock split declared in December 2005. At June 30, 2006, there were no warrants outstanding. The following tables present the calculations of EPS (dollars in thousands, except per share amounts). |

4. | Stock-Based Compensation. Prior to January 1, 2006, the Company’s stock option plans were accounted for under the recognition and measurement provisions of APB Opinion No. 25 (Opinion 25),Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related Interpretations, as permitted by FASB Statement No. 123,Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (as amended by SFAS No. 148,Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation Transition and Disclosure) (collectively SFAS 123). No stock-based employee compensation cost was recognized in the Company’s consolidated statements of earnings through December 31, 2005, as all options granted under the plans had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 123(R),Share-Based Payment(SFAS 123R), using the modified-prospective-transition method. Under that transition method, compensation cost recognized in 2006 includes: (a) compensation cost for all share-based payments granted prior to, but not yet vested as of January 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value calculated in accordance with the original provisions of SFAS 123, and (b) compensation cost for all share-based payments granted subsequent to December 31, 2005, based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123(R). At December 31, 2005, all outstanding options had vested. |
In addition, prior to the adoption of SFAS 123(R), the tax benefits of stock options exercised were classified as operating cash flows. Since the adoption of SFAS 123(R), tax benefits resulting from tax deductions in excess of the compensation cost recognized for options are classified as financing cash flows. As the Company adopted the modified-prospective- transition method, the prior period condensed consolidated cash flow statement was not adjusted to reflect current period presentation.
The following table illustrates the effect on net earnings and earnings per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS 123 to options granted under the Company’s stock option plan for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005. All per share amounts have been adjusted to reflect the three-for-two stock split declared in December 2005. For purposes of this pro forma disclosure, the value of the options is estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model and is being amortized to expense as the options’ vest (in thousands, except per share data).

4. | Stock-Based Compensation, Continued. The Company has three stock option plans for directors and employees of the Company. Under the first two plans, the total number of options which may be granted to purchase common stock is 492,188 (amended) for employees and 590,625 (amended) for directors. At June 30, 2006, no options remain available for grant under the directors’ plan and 84,851 options remain available for grant under the employees’ plan. The total number of options which may be granted to purchase common stock under the third plan is 225,000 (amended) for either directors or employees. At June 30, 2006, 15,000 options remain available for grant under the third plan. The directors’ options vest immediately and have a life of five years. The employees’ options vest over a range from grant date to eight years and expire six years after vesting is complete, however no employee option exceeds 10 years. |
A summary of the activity in the Company’s stock option plan is as follows. All amounts reflect the three-for-two stock split paid in January 2006 (dollars in thousands, except per share amounts):
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Number of Options | | | Weighted- Average Exercise Price | | Weighted- Average Remaining Contractual Term | | Aggregate Intrinsic Value |
Outstanding at December 31, 2005 | | 744,744 | | | $ | 9.87 | | | | | |

Exercisable at June 30, 2006 | | 698,973 | | | $ | 10.27 | | 4.3 years | | $ | 7,465 |
| | | | | | | | | | | |
The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 was $3,000 and $656,000, respectively and the tax benefit relating to the stock options exercised was $0 and $188,000, respectively. At June 30, 2006, there was approximately $91,000 of total unrecognized compensation expense related to nonvested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the plans. The cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 45 months. The total fair value of shares vesting and recognized as compensation expense was approximately $5,000 for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, respectively, and the associated income tax benefit recognized was $0 for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2006.

6. | Reclassifications. Certain reclassification of prior period amounts have been made to conform to the current period presentation. |
7. | Sale-Leaseback Transaction. The Bank sold its properties in St. Petersburg and Pinellas Park, Florida on May 17, 2006, and simultaneously leased both properties with favorable long-term leases. An immediate gain of approximately $225,000 was recognized on one of the properties because of the excess gain over the present value of the lease payments. The remaining gain of approximately $2.6 million is being deferred using the straight-line method over the ten year lease life. The lease expense is being straight-lined over the ten year lease life due to yearly 2% CPI increases. |

Review by Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
Hacker, Johnson & Smith PA, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, have made a limited review of the financial data as of June 30, 2006, and for the three- and six- month periods ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 presented in this document, in accordance with standards established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board.
Their report furnished pursuant to Article 10 of Regulation S-X is included herein.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
First Community Bank Corporation of America
Pinellas Park, Florida:
We have reviewed the accompanying interim condensed consolidated balance sheet of First Community Bank Corporation of America and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of June 30, 2006, the related interim condensed consolidated statements of earnings for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 and the related interim condensed consolidated statements of changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2006 and 2005. These interim financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.
We conducted our reviews in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements for them to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of December 31, 2005, and the related consolidated statements of earnings, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated February 24, 2006, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2005, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Forward Looking Statements
This document contains forward-looking statements as defined by Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These forward-looking statements involve substantial risks and uncertainties. When used in this document, or in the documents incorporated by reference, the words “anticipate”, “believe”, “estimate”, “may”, “intend” and “expect” and similar expressions are some of the forward-looking statements used in these documents. Actual results, performance, or achievements could differ materially from those contemplated, expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Factors which may cause results to change materially include competition, inflation, general economic conditions, changes in interest rates, and changes in the value of collateral securing loans First Community Bank Corporation of America has made, among other things.
General
First Community Bank Corporation of America (the “Holding Company”) owns all of the outstanding common stock of First Community Bank of America (the “Bank”) and First Community Lender Services, Inc. (“FCLS”) (collectively, the “Company”). The Holding Company’s primary business activity is the operations of the Bank. The Bank is a federally-chartered stock savings bank that provides a variety of banking services to small and middle market businesses and individuals through its three banking offices located in Pinellas County, one banking office located in Charlotte County and two offices located in Hillsborough County, Florida. FCLS had minimal activity during the three months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company’s primary source of cash during the six months ended June 30, 2006, was from net deposit inflows of approximately $13.5 million, proceeds from Federal Home Loan Bank advances of $62.5 million, principal repayments and maturities of securities of approximately $3.2 million and cash flows provided by operations of $2.3 million. Cash was used primarily to originate net loans of approximately $45.5 million to repay Federal Home Loan Bank advance of $47.5 million and purchase securities of approximately $4.2 million.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit, unused lines of credit and standby letters of credit. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest-rate risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The contract amounts of these instruments reflect the extent of the Company’s involvement in particular classes of financial instruments.
14
FIRST COMMUNITY BANK CORPORATION OF AMERICA AND SUBSIDIARIES
The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit, unused lines of credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments.
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total committed amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customer’s credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if it is deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the counter party.
Standby letters of credit are conditional lending commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party and to support public and private borrowing arrangements. Essentially all letters of credit issued have expiration dates within one year. The credit risk involved in issuing letters-of-credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. The Company generally holds collateral supporting these commitments.
Unused lines of credit and commitments to extend credit typically result in loans with a market interest rate.
A summary of the amounts of the Company’s financial instruments, with off-balance sheet risk at June 30, 2006, follows (in thousands):
| | | |
| | Contract Amount |
Commitments to extend credit | | $ | 417 |
| | | |
Unused lines of credit | | $ | 31,632 |
| | | |
Standby letters of credit | | $ | 3,009 |
| | | |
Management believes that the Company has adequate resources to fund all of its commitments and that substantially all its existing commitments will be funded within the next twelve months.

Comparison of the Three-Month Periods Ended June 30, 2006 and 2005
General. Our net earnings for the three months ended June 30, 2006, increased to $1,071,000 or $.28 per basic share and $.26 per diluted share compared to $629,000 or $.19 per basic share and $.17 per diluted share for the three months ended June 30, 2005. Net earnings increased due to an increase in net interest income and noninterest income due to the sale of premises and equipment of $225,000, which was partially offset by an increase in noninterest expenses and the provision for income taxes.
Net Interest Income. Interest income increased to $5.9 million during the three months ended June 30, 2006, from $3.9 million in 2005. Interest on loans for the three months ended June 30, 2006 increased to $5.7 million from $3.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2005. The increase in interest on loans was primarily due to an increase in the average balance of loans to $305.5 million, during the three months ended June 30, 2006 compared to $226.2 million, during the three months ended June 30, 2005. This increase was also due to an increase in the average yield earned to 7.51% for the three months ended June 30, 2006 from 6.70% for the three months ended June 30, 2005. Interest on securities increased to $148,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2006 from $98,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2005. The increase in interest income on securities was due to an increase in the average balance of securities from $14.8 million in 2005 to $15.7 million in 2006 and an increase in the average yield earned from 2.66% in 2005 to 3.77% in 2006.
Interest expense on interest bearing deposit accounts increased to $1.9 million during the three months ended June 30, 2006, compared to $940,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2005. The increase was due to an increase in the rate paid to 3.36% during the three months ended June 30, 2006 from 2.05% during the three months ended June 30, 2005, and an increase in the average balance of interest bearing deposits to $231.7 million in 2006 from $183.1 million in 2005. Interest expense on other borrowings increased to $295,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2006, compared to $135,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2005. The increase was due to an increase in the average balance of other borrowings to $26.6 million in 2006 from $16.3 million in 2005, and an increase in the average rate paid on other borrowings to 4.43% during the three months ended June 30, 2006 compared to 3.31% during the three months ended June 30, 2005.

Comparison of the Three-Month Periods Ended June 30, 2006 and 2005
Provision for Loan Losses.Calculating the allowance for loan losses is divided into two primary allocation groups: (1) specific allocation loans and (2) all other passing grade loans. For specific allocation loans, the Company has determined an allowance amount to set aside which it believes is sufficient to cover any potential collateral shortfall. Problem loans are identified by the loan officer, loan review, loan committee or by the examiners. Those loans identified as problem loans are assigned a risk grade. Loans graded special mention are multiplied by an inherent loss factor of 3%-5% to determine the amount to be included in the allowance. Loans graded substandard are generally multiplied by a loss factor of 5%-15%, loans graded doubtful are generally multiplied by a loss factor of 50% and loans graded loss are multiplied by a loss factor of 100%. In addition to the 5%-15% and 50% on substandard and doubtful loans, respectively, the loans are individually reviewed for any additional reserve that may be necessary. All other loans, graded pass are multiplied by an historical experience factor to determine the appropriate level of the allowance for loan losses. In addition to historical experience factors, the Company also provides for losses due to economic factors, concentration of credit risk and portfolio composition changes.
The provision for loan losses was $0 for the three months ended June 30, 2006 compared to $203,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2005. While continued economic weakness, rapidly rising interest rates, or other factors could cause stress on the loan portfolio and affect the levels of nonperforming assets and charge-offs, management believes that the levels of nonperforming assets and the charge-off ratio are stable under the current circumstances.
The allowance for loan losses is $3.5 million at June 30, 2006. While management believes that its allowance for loan losses is adequate as of June 30, 2006, future adjustments to the Company’s allowance for loan losses may be necessary if economic conditions differ substantially from the assumptions used in making the initial determination.
Noninterest Income. Noninterest income increased to $545,000 in 2006 from $276,000 for the three- months ended June 30, 2005. The increase was primarily due to a one time gain of $225,000 on the sale of premises and equipment.
Noninterest Expenses. Total noninterest expenses increased to $2.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006 from $1.9 million for the comparable period ended June 30, 2005, primarily due to an increase in employee compensation and benefits of $531,000 due to the overall growth of the Company and the opening of a new banking office in the fourth quarter of 2006.
Income Taxes. Income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2006 was $632,000 or 37.1% compared to $377,000 or 37.5% for the period ended June 30, 2005

General.

Net earnings increased due to an increase in net interest income and an increase in noninterest income due to the sale of premises and equipment, which was partially offset by an increase in noninterest expenses and the provision for income taxes.

Interest on loans for the six months ended June 30, 2006 increased to $10.9 million from $7.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005. The increase in interest on loans was primarily due to an increase in the average balance of loans to $295.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to $218.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2005. This increase was also due to an increase in the average yield earned to 7.36% for the six months ended June 30, 2006 from 6.58% for the six months ended June 30, 2005. Interest on securities increased to $280,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2006, from $194,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2005. The increase in interest income on securities was due to an increase in the average balance of securities from $15.1 million in 2005 to $15.6 million in 2006, and an increase in the average yield earned from 2.57% in 2005 to 3.59% in 2006.
Interest expense on interest-bearing deposit accounts increased to $3.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2006, compared to $1.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2005.

Interest expense on other borrowings increased to $530,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2006, compared to $239,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2005. The increase was due to a increase in the average balance of other borrowings to $25.1 million in 2006 from $14.7 million in 2005, and an increase in the average rate paid on other borrowings to 4.22% during the six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to 3.25% during the six months ended June 30, 2005.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Market risk is the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and rates. The Company’s market risk arises primarily from interest-rate risk inherent in its lending, investment and deposit taking activities. The Company has little or no risk related to trading accounts, commodities or foreign exchange.
Management actively monitors and manages its interest rate risk exposure. The primary objective in managing interest-rate risk is to limit, within established guidelines, the adverse impact of changes in interest rates on the Company’s net interest income and capital, while adjusting the Company’s asset-liability structure to obtain the maximum yield-cost spread on that structure. Management relies primarily on its asset-liability structure to control interest rate risk. However, a sudden and substantial increase in interest rates could adversely impact the Company’s earnings, to the extent that the interest rates borne by assets and liabilities do not change at the same speed, to the same extent, or on the same basis. There has been no significant change in the Company’s market risk exposure since December 31, 2005.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
a. | Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. The Company maintains controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Based upon their evaluation of those controls and procedures performed within 90 days of the filing date of this report, the Chief Executive and Chief Financial officers of the Company concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. |
b. | Changes in internal controls. The Company made no significant changes in its internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of the evaluation of those controls by the Chief Executive and Chief Financial officers. |
