NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The balance sheet at December 31, 2009 was derived from the audited financial statements at that date.
The accompanying unaudited financial statements were prepared in accordance with instructions for Form 10-Q and therefore do not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles for a complete presentation of financial statements. In the opinion of management, the financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial condition of Waccamaw Bankshares, Inc. (the “Company”) and its subsidiary, Waccamaw Bank (the “Bank”) as of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, and its results of operations and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009. The results of operations for the six months and three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.
Waccamaw Bankshares, Inc. is located in Whiteville, North Carolina. Waccamaw Bank, the primary subsidiary of Waccamaw Bankshares, Inc. is a state chartered bank operating seventeen offices in Whiteville, Wilmington, Shallotte (2), Holden Beach, Chadbourn, Tabor City, Southport (2), Sunset Beach, Oak Island and Elizabethtown, North Carolina. Offices in South Carolina include Conway (2), Socastee, Little River and Heath Springs. The accounting and reporting policies of the Company and Bank follow generally accepted accounting principles and general practices within the financial services industry.
PRESENTATION OF CASH FLOWS
For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash and amounts due from depository institutions, (including cash items in process of collection) interest-bearing deposits with banks which are considered to be cash equivalents and federal funds sold. Cash flows from demand deposits, NOW accounts and savings accounts are reported net since their original maturities are less than three months. Loans and time deposits are reported net per FASB ASC Topic 205. Federal funds purchased are shown separately.
INVESTMENT SECURITIES
Investments classified as available for sale can be held for indefinite periods of time and include those securities that management may employ as part of asset/liability strategy or that may be sold in response to changes in interest rates, prepayments, regulatory capital requirements or similar factors. These securities are carried at fair value and are based on quoted market prices, where available. If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on quoted market prices of comparable instruments.
Declines in the fair value of available-for-sale securities below their cost that are deemed to be other than temporary are reflected in earnings as realized losses. In estimating other-than-temporary impairment losses, management considers (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and (3) the intent and ability of the Company to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value. The declines in fair value are due to changes in market rates.
LOANS
Loans are stated at the amount of unpaid principal, reduced by unearned fees and an allowance for loan losses.
The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level considered appropriate to provide for losses that can be reasonably anticipated. The allowance is increased by provisions charged to operating expense and reduced by net charge-offs. The Bank performs credit reviews of the loan portfolio and considers economic conditions, historical loan loss experience, review of specific problem loans and other factors in determining the balance of the allowance for loan losses.
Interest on all loans is accrued daily on the outstanding balance. Accrual of interest is discontinued on a loan when management believes, after considering collection efforts and other factors that the borrower’s financial condition is such that collection of interest is doubtful.
Allowance for loan losses, charge-offs, impaired loans and non-accrual loans along with market conditions and loan portfolio concentrations are discussed further under “Asset Quality” in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”
NOTE 2. REGULATORY CAPITAL AND REGULATORY MATTERS
WRITTEN AGREEMENT
Effective June 14, 2010, the Company and the Bank entered into a Written Agreement (the “Agreement”) with the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond (the “Reserve Bank”) and the North Carolina Commissioner of Banks (“The Commissioner”).
The Agreement is a formal corrective action pursuant to which the Bank has agreed to address specific issues set forth below, through the adoption and implementation of procedures, plans and policies designed to enhance the safety and soundness of the Bank.
Among other things, the Agreement requires the Bank to:
| ● | Retain an independent consultant acceptable to the Reserve Bank and the Commissioner to conduct a review of the effectiveness of the Bank’s corporate governance, board and management structure, to assess staffing needs and to prepare a written report of findings and recommendations; |
| | |
| ● | Formulate a plan to strengthen board oversight of the management and operations of the Bank; |
| | |
| ● | Formulate and implement a plan to strengthen credit risk management practices; |
| | |
| ● | Formulate a plan for the ongoing review and grading of the Bank’s loan portfolio by a qualified independent party or by qualified staff that is independent of the Bank’s lending function; |
| | |
| ● | Develop a plan to maintain sufficient capital at the Company, on a consolidated basis; |
| | |
| ● | Not pay cash dividends without the prior written consent of the Reserve Bank and the Commissioner; |
| | |
| ● | Not accept any new brokered deposits (contractual renewals or rollovers of existing brokered deposits are permitted). |
The Company must furnish periodic progress reports to the Reserve Bank and the Commissioner regarding its compliance with the Agreement.

NOTE 3. EARNINGS PER SHARE
Earnings (loss) per share for the six months and the quarters ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 were calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share for the six months and the quarters ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 were calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of dilutive shares outstanding. For the six months and three months ended June 30, 2009, there was no dilutive effect as the Company reported a loss on operations.
The following table details the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share:
| | Six-Months ended June 30, 2010 | | | Six-Months ended June 30, 2009 | |
Net income (loss) (income available to common shareholders) | | $ | 160,662 | | | $ | (2,255,030 | ) |

At June 30, 2010 and June 30, 2009, the Company had 296,889 warrants outstanding. At June 30, 2009 these warrants were not included in the diluted earnings per share calculation as the effect would have been anti-dilutive. There were 314,539 anti-dilutive options at June 30, 2010 and 313,768 anti-dilutive options at June 30, 2009 which have been excluded from the diluted weighted shares outstanding. For the six months ended June 30, 2010, the stock compensation expense of the Company was $46,114 compared to $60,930 for the six months ended June 30, 2009. The unrecognized stock compensation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was $174,871 compared to $286,509 for the six months ended June 30, 2009.
In 2008, the shareholders approved an equity compensation plan (the “2008 Omnibus Stock Ownership and Long Term Incentive Plan (the “Omnibus Plan”)) which replaced the Company’s 1998 Incentive Stock Option Plan and 1998 Non-statutory Stock Option Plan (the “Previous Plans”). After the approval of the Omnibus Plan, no further options have been or will be issued under the Previous Plans. The term of the Omnibus Plan is indefinite, except that no stock option award can be granted after the tenth anniversary of the plan. Under the Omnibus Plan, the Company may grant incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, restricted stock, stock appreciation rights, or long-term incentive compensation units to eligible employees and directors. The compensation committee of the board of directors determines the exercise price and all other terms of all grants.
NOTE 4. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Bank is 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 and standby letters of credit. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheets.
The Bank’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by counterparties to financial instruments for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Bank uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as for on-balance-sheet instruments. A summary of the Bank’s commitments at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 is as follows:
| | June 30, 2010 | | | December 31, 2009 | |
Commitments to extend credit | | $ | 33,082,000 | | | $ | 41,072,000 | |
Standby letters of credit | | | 960,000 | | | | 796,000 | |
NOTE 5. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In March 2010, guidance related to derivatives and hedging was amended to exempt embedded credit derivative features related to the transfer of credit risk from potential bifurcation and separate accounting. Embedded features related to other types of risk and other embedded credit derivative features are not exempt from potential bifurcation and separate accounting. The amendments were effective for the Company on July 1, 2010. These amendments will have no impact on the financial statements.
Income Tax guidance was amended in April 2010 to reflect an SEC Staff Announcement after the President signed the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 on March 30, 2010, which amended the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act signed on March 23, 2010. According to the announcement, although the bills were signed on separate dates, regulatory bodies would not object if the two Acts were considered together for accounting purposes. This view is based on the SEC staff's understanding that the two Acts together represent the current health care reforms as passed by Congress and signed by the President. The amendment had no impact on the financial statements.
Stock compensation guidance was updated in April 2010 to address the classification of employee share-based payment awards with exercise prices dominated in the currency of a market in which a substantial portion of the entity’s equity securities trade. The guidance states that these awards should not be considered to contain a condition that is not a market, performance, or service condition. Share based payments that contain conditions related to market performance and service must be recorded as liabilities. These awards should not be classified as liabilities if they otherwise qualify to be classified as equity. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2010. The Company does not expect the update to have an impact on the financial statements.
The insurance portion of the Financial Services Topic of the ASC was amended in April 2010 to address accounting for separate account interests. The update provides that separate account interests held for the benefit of policy holders should not be considered to be the insurer's interests in an investment and should not be combined with its general account interests when assessing this investment for consolidation. For the purpose of evaluating whether the retention of specialized accounting for investments in consolidation is appropriate, a separate account arrangement should be considered a subsidiary. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2010. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the guidance to have any impact on the financial statements.
In April 2010, guidance was issued related to accounting for acquired troubled loans that are subsequently modified. The guidance provides that if these loans meet the criteria to be accounted for within a pool, modifications to one or more of these loans, does not result in the removal of the modified loan from the pool even if the modification would otherwise be considered a troubled debt restructuring. The pool of assets in which the loan is included will continue to be considered for impairment. The amendments do not apply to loans not meeting the criteria to be accounted for within a pool. These amendments are effective for modifications of loans accounted for within pools occurring in the first interim or annual period ending on or after July 15, 2010. These amendments had no impact on the financial statements.
Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
NOTE 6. FAIR VALUE
GAAP provides a framework for measuring and disclosing fair value which requires disclosures about the fair value of assets and liabilities recognized in the balance sheet, whether the measurements are made on a recurring basis (for example, available for sale investment securities) or on a nonrecurring basis (for example, impaired loans).
Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. GAAP also establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.
The Company utilizes fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and to determine fair value disclosures. Securities available for sale are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Additionally, from time to time, the Company may be required to record at fair value other assets on a nonrecurring basis, such as loans held for sale, loans held for investment and certain other assets. These nonrecurring fair value adjustments typically involve application of lower of cost or market accounting or write-downs of individual assets.
Fair Value Hierarchy
The Company groups assets and liabilities at fair value in three levels, based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine the fair value. These levels are:
| Level 1 – | Valuation is based upon quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets. |
| Level 2 – | Valuation is based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market. |
| Level 3 – | Valuation is generated from model-based techniques that use at least one significant assumption not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Valuation techniques include the use of option pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques. |
The following is a description of valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities recorded at fair value.
Investment Securities Available-for-Sale
Investment securities available-for-sale are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value measurement is based upon quoted prices, if available. If quoted prices are not available, fair values are measured using independent pricing models or other model-based valuation techniques such as present value of future cash flows, adjusted for the security’s credit rating, prepayment assumptions and other factors such as credit loss assumptions. Level 1 securities include those traded on an active exchange, such as the New York Stock Exchange, Treasury securities that are traded by dealers or brokers in active over-the-counter markets and money market funds. Level 2 securities include mortgage-backed securities issued by government sponsored entities, municipal bonds and corporate debt securities. Securities classified as Level 3 include asset-backed securities in less liquid markets.
Loans
The Company does not record loans at fair value on a recurring basis. However, from time to time, a loan is considered impaired and an allowance for loan losses is established. Loans for which it is probable that payment of interest and principal will not be made in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement are considered impaired. Once a loan is identified as individually impaired, management measures impairment. The fair value of impaired loans is estimated using one of several methods, including collateral value, market value of similar debt, enterprise value, liquidation value, and discounted cash flows. Those impaired loans not requiring an allowance represent loans for which the fair value of the expected repayments or collateral exceed the recorded investments in such loans. As of June
30, 2010, the Bank identified $44,599,956 in impaired loans. Of these impaired loans, $11,451,174 was identified to have impairment of $1,335,849. The determination of impairment was based on the fair market value of collateral for each loan. In situations where management discounts appraised values in determining fair value of appraisals, these levels will be considered to be a Level 3 input.
Foreclosed Assets
Foreclosed assets are adjusted to fair value upon transfer of the loans to other real estate owned. Real estate acquired in settlement of loans is recorded initially at estimated fair value of the property less estimated selling costs at the date of foreclosure. The initial recorded value may be subsequently reduced by additional allowances, which are charges to earnings if the estimated fair value of the property less estimated selling costs declines below the initial recorded value. Fair value is based upon independent market prices, appraised values of the collateral or management’s estimation of the value of the collateral. When the fair value of the collateral is based on an observable market price or a current appraised value, the Company recorded the foreclosed asset as nonrecurring.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
Goodwill and identified intangible assets are subject to impairment testing. The Company’s approach to testing goodwill for impairment is to compare the business unit’s carrying value to the implied fair value based on multiples of earnings and tangible book value for recently completed merger transactions. In the event the fair value is determined to be less than the carrying value, the asset is recorded at fair value as determined by the valuation model. Based on management’s assessment of fair value of the Company, goodwill was determined to be impaired during 2009. The Company classifies other intangible assets subjected to nonrecurring fair value adjustments as Level 3.

Generally accepted accounting principles require disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the Statement of Condition, for which it is practicable to estimate that value. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques. Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. In that regard, the derived fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets and, in many cases, could not be realized in immediate settlement of the instrument. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts. Also, the fair value estimates presented herein are based on pertinent information available to Management as of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009. Such amounts have not been comprehensively revalued for purposes of these financial statements since those dates, and, therefore, current estimates of fair value may differ significantly from the amounts presented herein.
The estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments are as follows (dollars in thousands):

NOTE 8 – INVESTMENT SECURITIES
Investments in available for sale securities of $98,513,820 consisted of corporate securities, single issue trust preferred securities, municipal securities, and mortgage backed securities (MBS) at June 30, 2010.
At June 30, 2010, we had 36 individual available for sale investments that were in an unrealized loss position. The unrealized losses on investments in corporate securities, municipal securities, U.S. Governmental agencies and mortgage backed securities (MBS) summarized below were attributable to market turmoil and liquidity. The unrealized losses on the corporate securities are due to credit quality, as well as liquidity. We have the intent and the ability to hold the remaining investments until a market price recovery or maturity, and therefore these investments are not considered impaired on an other-than-temporary basis.

The Company’s unrealized losses on other securities relate to its investment in bank-only pooled trust preferred securities, corporate securities, municipal securities and mortgage backed securities (MBS). The Company is closely monitoring its investments in these securities in light of recent price volatility in the marketplace. Due to uncertainty in the credit markets broadly, and the lack of both trading and new issuance in pooled trust preferred securities, market price indications generally reflect the illiquidity in these markets and not the credit quality of the individual securities. Due to this illiquidity, it is unlikely that the Company would be able to recover its investment in these securities if it sold them at this time. The Company has the intent and ability to hold these securities until a recovery of costs, which may be at maturity. Based on an assessment of the credit quality of the underlying issuers, the Company did not consider the investment in these securities to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2010. The Company will continue to monitor the market price of these securities and the default rates of the underlying issuers and continue to evaluate these securities for possible other-than-temporary impairment, which could result in a future non-cash charge to earnings.
NOTE 9 – OTHER ASSETS
Other assets of $14,763,578 consisted of prepaid FDIC assessment of $3,294,979, deferred tax charges less deferred tax valuation allowance of $2,438,014 and income tax receivable of $5,157,421 at June 30, 2010.
ITEM 2. | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS |
INTRODUCTION
This discussion, analysis and related financial information is presented to explain the significant factors which affected the financial condition and results of operations for the six months ending June 30, 2010 and 2009 of Waccamaw Bankshares, Inc. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes included in this report.
Waccamaw Bank, the primary subsidiary of Waccamaw Bankshares, is a state chartered bank operating seventeen offices in Whiteville, Wilmington, Shallotte (2), Holden Beach, Chadbourn, Tabor City, Southport (2), Sunset Beach, Oak Island and Elizabethtown, North Carolina. Offices in South Carolina include Conway (2), Socastee, Little River and Heath Springs. The Bank began operations on September 2, 1997. Waccamaw Bankshares, Inc. acquired all outstanding shares of Waccamaw Bank on July 1, 2001.
Impact of Dodd-Frank Act. On July 21, 2010, President Obama signed the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) into law. The Dodd-Frank Act represents a comprehensive overhaul of the financial services industry in the United States. The Dodd-Frank Act includes, among other things:
| ● | the creation of a Financial Stability Oversight Council to identify emerging systemic risks posed by financial firms, activities and practices, and improve cooperation between federal agencies; |
| ● | the creation of a Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection authorized to promulgate and enforce consumer protection regulations relating to financial products, which would affect both banks and non-bank financial companies; |
| ● | the establishment of strengthened capital and prudential standards for banks and bank holding companies; |
| ● | enhanced regulation of financial markets, including derivatives and securitization markets; |
| ● | the elimination of certain trading activities by banks; |
| ● | a permanent increase of the previously implemented temporary increase of FDIC deposit insurance to $250,000 per account, an extension of unlimited deposit insurance on qualifying noninterest-bearing transaction accounts, and an increase in the minimum deposit insurance fund reserve requirement from 1.15% to 1.35%, with assessments to be based on assets as opposed to deposits; |
| ● | amendments to the Truth in Lending Act aimed at improving consumer protections with respect to mortgage originations, including originator compensation, minimum repayment standards, and prepayment considerations; and |
| ● | new disclosure and other requirements relating to executive compensation and corporate governance. |
The Company is unable to predict the extent to which the Dodd-Frank Act or the forthcoming rules and regulations will impact the Company’s business. However, the Company believes that certain aspects of the new legislation, including, without limitation, the additional cost of higher deposit insurance coverage and the costs of compliance with disclosure and reporting requirements and examinations could have a significant impact on the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations. Additionally, the Company cannot predict whether there will be additional proposed laws or reforms that would affect the U.S. financial system or financial institutions, whether or when such changes may be adopted, how such changes may be interpreted and enforced, or how such changes may affect the Company.
HIGHLIGHTS
Net loss for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 was ($127,753) or ($.02) per weighted average basic share outstanding compared to a ($2,119,491) net loss or ($.38) per weighted average basic share outstanding for the quarter ended June 30, 2009.
On June 30, 2010, Waccamaw Bankshares, Inc. assets totaled $573,493,596 compared to $533,221,072 on December 31, 2009. Net loans on June 30, 2010 were $323,530,066 compared to $340,020,798 on December 31, 2009. Total deposits on June 30, 2010 were $475,979,553 compared to $433,537,959 at the end of 2009. Stockholders’ equity after adjustments for unrealized losses on securities available for sale increased by $1,280,645 resulting in a June 30, 2010 book value of $3.32 per common share, up from $3.09 on December 31, 2009.
FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
INVESTMENTS
The Bank maintains a portfolio of securities as part of its asset/liability and liquidity management programs which emphasize effective yields and maturities to match its needs. The composition of the investment portfolio is examined periodically and appropriate realignments are initiated to meet liquidity and interest rate sensitivity needs for the Bank.
Held to maturity securities are bonds, notes and debentures for which the Bank has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity and which are reported at cost, adjusted by premiums and discounts that are recognized in interest income using the interest method over the period to maturity or to call dates. At June 30, 2010 and at December 31, 2009, the Bank had no investments classified as held to maturity. Available for sale securities are reported at fair value
and consist of bonds, notes, debentures and certain equity securities not classified as trading securities or as held to maturity securities.
Unrealized holding gains and losses, net of tax, on available for sale securities are reported as a net amount in a separate component of stockholders’ equity. Realized gains and losses on the sale of available for sale securities are determined using the specific-identification method. Premiums and discounts are recognized in interest income using the interest method over the period to maturity or to call dates.
Declines in the fair value of individual held to maturity and available for sale securities below cost that are other than temporary are reflected as write-downs of the individual securities to fair value. Related write-downs are included in earnings as realized losses. For the six month periods ended June 30, 2010 there were no impairment write-downs. For the six month period ended June 30, 2009, the Company wrote down $2,156,820 in two single issue trust preferred securities and $152,656 of stock in Silverton Bank.
Investments in available for sale securities of $98,513,820 consisted of corporate securities, municipal securities, U.S. Governmental agencies and mortgage backed securities (MBS) at June 30, 2010.
DEPOSITS WITH BANKS
Interest-bearing deposits consist of deposits with other financial institutions. These interest-bearing accounts at other financial institutions were $68,633,796 on June 30, 2010 and $7,695,499 on December 31, 2009. The increase in interest-bearing deposits was due to increased deposits and a reduction of net loans outstanding.
FEDERAL FUNDS SOLD
Federal funds sold consist of short-term loans to other financial institutions. These loans are made to various financial institutions and were $7,014,906 on June 30, 2010 and $21,315,000 on December 31, 2009.
LOANS
Net loans outstanding on June 30, 2010, were $323,530,066, compared to $340,020,798 on December 31, 2009. The Bank maintains a loan portfolio dominated by real estate and commercial loans diversified among various industries. Curtailment of real estate lending in the first six months of 2010, coupled with very low loan demand and aggressive resolution of problem loans, including the addition of $4,213,673 in foreclosed assets in the first six months of 2010 and net charge-offs of $1,057,164 in the first six months of 2010 are the major factors contributing to the $16,490,732 decrease in loans in the period since December 31, 2009.
DEPOSITS
Deposits on June 30, 2010, were $475,979,553 compared to $433,537,959 on December 31, 2009. Interest-bearing accounts represented 91.7% of total deposits at June 30, 2010 and 92.4% of total deposits at December 31, 2009. The significant increase in deposits was the result of the Bank taking advantage of low deposit interest rates in the brokered CD market, purchasing brokered CDs of approximately $40,000,000.
LIABILITIES
Securities sold under agreements to repurchase on June 30, 2010, were $20,053,000 compared to $20,615,000 on December 31, 2009. Long-term debt on June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 was $43,000,000. At June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, $40,000,000 was outstanding under Federal Home Loan Bank advances. Also included in long-term debt at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 was $3,000,000 of subordinated notes bearing interest at 3-month LIBOR plus 350 basis points that will mature on July 1, 2015. Short-term borrowings at June 30, 2010 were $1,000,000 compared to $3,500,000 at December 31, 2009. There were no short-term borrowings funded by the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta at June 30, 2010 and $2,500,000 in short-term borrowings at December 31, 2009 funded by the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta. Also included in other short-term borrowings at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 was a $1,000,000 line of credit at a 5.00% lending rate that will mature on July 1, 2020. Other liabilities at June 30, 2010 were $1,545,959 compared to $2,098,993 on December 31, 2009.
TRUST PREFERRED SECURITIES
In December 2003, the Company privately issued $8.0 million aggregate liquidation amount of floating rate trust preferred securities through Waccamaw Statutory Trust I, which was formed for the sole purpose of issuing the securities. We may redeem these trust preferred securities at our option with prior regulatory approval. In July 2008, the Company completed a private offering of trust preferred securities through a Delaware statutory trust sponsored by the Company. Waccamaw Statutory Trust II, wholly owned by the Company, issued $4.0 million of preferred securities. The proceeds from the offering have been used to continue to support Waccamaw Bank’s growth. The interest payable on the trust preferred securities resets quarterly, and is equal to LIBOR plus 4.00%. On December 17, 2009 the Company began to defer interest payments on the junior subordinated debentures issued to Waccamaw Statutory Trust I. On January 1, 2010 the Company began to defer payments on the junior subordinated debentures issued to Waccamaw Statutory Trust II.
STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
Waccamaw Bankshares, Inc. maintains a strong capital position which exceeds all capital adequacy requirements of Federal regulatory authorities. Total stockholders’ equity at June 30, 2010 was $18,435,076 compared to $17,154,431 at December 31, 2009. This $1,280,645 increase was primarily due to unrealized gains on securities available for sale increasing $1,974,712, net of tax and operating income of $160,662 for the six months ended June 30, 2010. Regulatory guidelines relating to capital adequacy provide minimum risk-based ratios which assess capital adequacy while encompassing all credit risks, including those related to off-balance sheet activities. Capital ratios under these guidelines are computed by weighing the relative risk of each asset category to derive risk-adjusted assets. For the Company, risk-based capital guidelines require minimum ratios of core (Tier 1) capital (common stockholders’ equity) to risk-weighted assets of 4.0% and total regulatory capital (core capital plus allowance for loan losses up to 1.25% of risk-weighted assets) to risk-weighted assets of 8.0%. As of June 30, 2010, the Company’s Tier 1 risk-weighted capital ratio and total capital ratio were 8.3% and 9.3%, respectively. As of December 31, 2009, the Company’s Tier 1 risk-weighted capital ratio and total capital ratio were 7.9% and 8.9%, respectively.
The Bank also has capital ratio constraints with which to comply. These ratios are slightly different than those required at the parent company level. At June 30, 2010, the Bank’s capital ratios were as follows: Tier 1 leverage ratio, 5.5%, Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio, 8.6% and total risk-based ratio, 10.7%. At December 31, 2009, the Bank’s capital ratios were as follows: Tier 1 leverage ratio, 6.0%, Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio, 8.1% and total risk-based ratio, 10.1%. These capital ratios were sufficient at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 to classify the Bank as “well capitalized” in accordance with the FDIC’s regulatory capital rules.
Waccamaw Bankshares, Inc. offered up to 8,326,775 shares of our common stock in a rights offering to our shareholders of record as of the close of business on May 14, 2010. Each shareholder had the right to purchase three shares of common stock for every two shares of common stock owned as of May 14, 2010. The rights offering terminated on August 2, 2010.
ASSET QUALITY
At June 30, 2010, the Company had $4,964,245 in loans that were 30-89 days past due. This represented 1.48% of gross loans outstanding on that date. This is a decrease from December 31, 2009 when there were $26,301,069 in loans that were 30-89 days past due, or 7.50% of gross loans outstanding. The decrease in past dues is spread throughout each category of the loan portfolio and is due primarily to increased staffing in the special assets and collections department.
The percentage of non-performing loans (non-accrual loans and loans that were 90 days or more past due but still in accruing status) to total loans increased 532 basis points from 6.78% at December 31, 2009 to 12.10% at June 30, 2010. The Company had two loans that were considered troubled debt restructured loans which totaled $417,092 at June 30, 2010.
During 2009, management refined its allowance for loan losses methodology taking into account existing Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and regulatory guidance. The refinement in methodology focused on revised loss factors that are more indicative of actual loss experience in recent years and current borrower analysis. The results of the allowance for loan loss model indicated that a $1,810,614 provision was needed for the six months ended June 30, 2010.
ALLL Methodological Changes from prior period.
| ● | Effective 3/31/2010, on the advice of the bank’s examiners, the bank has changed its selections parameters for review under FAS 114, as follows. |
| ● | Loans and relationships of $500,000 and more (versus previous threshold of $250,000). |
| ● | Expanded review to include loans in risk grade 50 (Substandard), from previous concentration on risk grade 55 (Doubtful). |
| ● | As a result of these changes, the complexion of FAS 114 is somewhat different. We eliminated approximately 25 smaller relationships from the analysis, returning them to FAS 5. And we added approximately 15 grade 50 loans, previously not reviewed. |
| ● | Effective 12/31/2009, on the advice of the bank’s CPAs, the bank elected to write down substantially all of the previously-calculated FAS 114 impairments, totaling approximately $7,000,000. |
| ● | This leaves the ALLL with a distinctly different balance than previous submissions. During the past 3 years, the ALLL has typically approximated a 50/50 balance between FAS 5 and FAS 114. We now have essentially all of the bank’s calculated reserve in FAS 5. |
| ● | The bank will follow this same guidance with FAS 114 reserves in the future. As soon as an impairment can be reasonably calculated (that is, not upon initial impairment calculation, which is often an educated guess at best, but upon receipt and review of an updated appraisal, reasonable offer for purchase, etc…) the bank will write the loan down by the level of that impairment. |
| ● | Where previous reports have typically carried approximately 20% of FAS 114 loan balances in reserve, we expect future reports to more closely approximate this one. |
The increase in the provision is the result of an increase in non-performing loans along with loans identified as impaired under FAS 114 as discussed under Note 6 – “Fair Value” – in the notes to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included under Item 1 of this report. As of June 30, 2010 the Bank identified $44,599,956 in impaired loans. Of these impaired loans, $11,451,174 was identified to have impairment of $1,335,849. At December 31, 2009, there was $41,575,130 of loans that were reviewed for individual impairment under FAS 114. None of these impaired loans required a specific reserve at December 31, 2009. The increases in impaired loans resulted from net charge-offs of $13,618,962 at December 31, 2009, as most of the loans charged-off in 2009 were classified as impaired.
The allowance for loan losses on June 30, 2010, was $10,902,377 or 3.26% of period end loans compared to $10,148,927 and 2.90% at December 31, 2009. The allowance for loan losses at June 30, 2010 represented 24.44% of impaired loans compared to 24.41% at December 31, 2009. At June 30, 2010 the Bank had loans totaling $35,077,457 in nonaccrual status as compared to $26,010,130 at June 30, 2009. The increase in non-accrual loans includes increases in eight non-performing commercial real estate loans. The largest non-accrual loan relationship totaled $4,704,805 with the average balance for the ninety three non-accrual loans totaling $377,176. At June 30, 2010 there was $1,057,164 in net charge-offs compared to $329,878 at June 30, 2009. There was $98,575 in repossessed assets at June 30, 2010 and $8,281 in repossessed assets at June 30, 2009. At June 30, 2010 there was $9,207,914 in other real estate owned compared to $731,087 at June 30, 2009.
The total non-performing assets, (non-accrual loans, loans greater than 90 days past due and still accruing and other real estate owned), at June 30, 2010 was $49,691,904 and $27,843,085 at December 31, 2009. The allowance for loan losses at June 30, 2010 represented 21.94% of non-performing assets compared to 36.45% at December 31, 2009.
The following is a roll forward of the Company’s allowance for loan losses for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009:
| | Six-Months ended June 30, 2010 | | | Six-Months ended June 30, 2009 | |

| | Three-Months ended June 30, 2010 | | | Three-Months ended June 30, 2009 | |
Allowance for loan losses at beginning of period | | $ | 10,442,170 | | | $ | 8,081,431 | |

| | | | | | | | |
Allowance for loan losses at end of period | | $ | 10,902,377 | | | $ | 10,484,950 | |
In addition to the impact on our allowance for loan losses resulting from our loan portfolio rebalancing efforts, which have reduced our concentrations in construction and development sector loans, our refined allowance for loan losses methodology, as previously discussed, has resulted in an overall increase in the allowance for loan losses as a percent of total loans. In management’s judgment, an appropriate allowance for estimated losses has been established; however, there can be no assurance that actual losses will not exceed the estimated amounts in the future.
The Bank’s allowance for loan and lease losses methodology involves the following: The Registrant evaluates loans and relationships greater than $500,000 and in non-performing status (non-accrual, greater than 90 days still accruing, etc.) or otherwise deemed to be impaired for individual impairment under FAS 114. Further, individual impairment is calculated for any loan, regardless of size, rising to the level of Troubled Debt Restructure. Once the FAS 114 analysis is completed, the valuation is reviewed for required specific reserve adjustment at least quarterly. On large or complex credits (generally those in excess of $1,000,000), the Bank obtains a liquidation or quick-sale appraisal at the initial impairment determination and adjusts the specific reserve upon receipt and review of the appraisal. Generally, the Bank obtains an updated appraisal on such properties annually. On smaller credits, the decision to pay for an in-debt appraisal is made on a case-by-case basis. In cases where such an updated appraisal is not obtained, the Bank may elect to apply a discount to the most recent appraisal obtained for the property in question. This discount is based on changes in value observed from appraisals on similar properties and knowledge about recent sales of similar properties. Again, these evaluations are reviewed quarterly.
Loans evaluated under FAS 114 are removed from the FAS 5 general loan classifications, to avoid double reserving. Our ALLL model breaks FAS 5 down into two parts: reserves based upon historical losses (adjusted to account for current economic outlook or other factors), risk grade or past due status, years to impairment, and an “unallocated” section based on observations of general economic conditions, local unemployment figures, GDP trends, or other quantitative or qualitative factors.

COMPARISON OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2010 AND 2009
The Company reported a net loss of ($127,753) or ($.02) per share for the quarter ended June 30, 2010, as compared with a net loss of ($2,119,491) or ($.38) per basic share and diluted share for the quarter ended June 30, 2009, an increase of $1,991,738 in net income.
NET INTEREST INCOME
Like most financial institutions, the primary component of earnings for the Company is net interest income. Net interest income is the difference between the interest earned on loans, the investment portfolio and interest earning deposits and the cost of funds, consisting primarily of the interest paid on deposits and borrowings. Changes in net interest income result from changes in volume, spread and margin. For this purpose, volume refers to the average dollar level of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, spread refers to the difference between the average yield on interest-earning assets and the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities, and margin refers to net interest income divided by average interest-earning assets. Margin is influenced by the level and relative mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, as well as by levels of non-interest bearing liabilities and stockholders’ equity.
For the three months ended June 30, 2010, the net interest income of the Company was $2,556,222 compared to $2,841,184 for the three months ended June 30, 2009. For the three months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2009, the net interest income decreased slightly as the decrease in loan market interest rates coupled with the $9,067,327 increase in the nonaccrual loans accounted for a $1,084,971 decrease in interest income which was almost completely offset by a $800,009 decrease in interest expense resulting from a decrease in deposit rates.
PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES
The Company expensed $794,601 to the provision for loan losses in the second quarter of 2010, as compared to the $2,639,196 provision for loan losses in the second quarter of 2009. The decrease in the provision was due to higher levels of FAS 114 in the second quarter of 2009 over the second quarter of 2010. Provisions for loan losses are charged to income to bring the allowance for loan losses to a level deemed appropriate by management. Management considers the current level of the loan loss allowance to be appropriate based on loan volume, the current level of delinquencies, other non performing-assets, prevailing economic conditions and other factors that may affect a borrower’s ability to repay.
NON-INTEREST INCOME
Non-interest income totaled $1,509,377 for the three months ended June 30, 2010 as compared with ($233,472) for the three months ended June 30, 2009. The principal reason for the increase of $1,742,849 in total non-interest income for the current quarter was that the Company had realized gains on sales or maturity of investment securities of $262,665, had decreases in service charges in deposit accounts of $157,477 and decreases in other operating income of $50,769. Decreases of $17,514 in fees from mortgage origination income from the continued slowdown in the housing market, increases of $6,637 in financial services income, increases of $28,128 in earnings on bank owned life insurance and write-downs of $2,156,820 in two single issue trust preferred securities and $152,656 of stock in Silverton Bank in the second quarter of 2009 accounted for the additional difference in non-interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2010 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2009.
NON-INTEREST EXPENSES
Non-interest expenses totaled $3,610,363 for the three months ended June 30, 2010, an increase of $131,508 or 3.8% over the $3,478,855 reported for the three months ended June 30, 2009. For the three months ended June 30, 2010, personnel costs decreased by $180,679, or 10.2% to $1,594,468 as compared to $1,775,147 for the three months ended June 30, 2009. Other expenses totaled approximately $889,755 for the three months ended June 30, 2010, an increase of $155,911 or 21.2% over the $733,844 reported for the three months ended June 30, 2009.
PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES
The Company recognized a benefit of $211,612 for income taxes during the three months ended June 30, 2010 compared to a benefit for income taxes of $1,390,848 for the three months ended June 30, 2009.
COMPARISON OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2010 AND 2009
The Company reported net income of $160,662 or $.03 per basic share and diluted share for the six months ended June 30, 2010, as compared with a net loss of ($2,255,030) or ($.41) per basic share and diluted share for the six months ended June 30, 2009, an increase of $2,415,692 in net income.
NET INTEREST INCOME
For the six months ended June 30, 2010, the net interest income of the Bank was $5,630,625 as compared to $5,922,055 for the six months ended June 30, 2009. For the six months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2009, the net interest income decreased slightly as the decrease in loan market interest rates coupled with the $9,067,327 increase in the nonaccrual loans accounted for a $2,061,759 decrease in interest income which was almost completely offset by a $1,770,329 decrease in interest expense resulting from a decrease in deposit rates.
PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES
The Company expensed $1,810,614 to the provision for loan losses in the first six months of 2010, as compared to the $3,626,846 provision for loan losses in the first six months of 2009. The decrease in the provision was due to higher levels of FAS 114 in the first six months of 2009 over the first six months of 2010. Provisions for loan losses are charged to income to bring the allowance for loan losses to a level deemed appropriate by management. Management considers the current level of the loan loss allowance to be appropriate based on loan volume, the current level of delinquencies, other non performing-assets, prevailing economic conditions and other factors that may affect a borrower’s ability to repay.
NON-INTEREST INCOME
Non-interest income totaled $3,174,456 for the six months ended June 30, 2010 as compared with $1,111,682 for the six months ended June 30, 2009. The principal reason for the increase of $2,062,774 in total non-interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was that the Company had realized gains on sales or maturity of investment securities of $648,192, had increases in service charges in deposit accounts of $7,251 and increases in earnings on bank owned life insurance of $22,875. Decreases of $33,483 in fees from mortgage origination income from the continued slowdown in the housing market, decreases of $3,655 in financial services income, decreases of $17,205 in other operating income and write-downs of $2,156,820 in two single issue trust preferred securities and $152,656 of stock in Silverton Bank in the first six months of 2009 accounted for the additional difference in non-interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2010 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2009.
NON-INTEREST EXPENSES
Non-interest expenses totaled $7,026,005 for the six months ended June 30, 2010, a decrease of $277,802 or 3.8% of the $7,303,807 reported for the six months ended June 30, 2009. For the six months ended June 30, 2010, personnel costs decreased by $533,869, or 14.4% to $3,171,166 as compared to $3,705,035 for the six months ended June 30, 2009. Other expenses totaled $1,587,445 for the six months ended June 30, 2010, an increase of $197,218 or 14.2% over the $1,390,227 reported for the six months ended June 30, 2009.
PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES
The Company recognized a benefit of $192,200 for income taxes during the six months ended June 30, 2010 compared to a benefit for income taxes of $1,641,886 for the six months ended June 30, 2009.
INTEREST SENSITIVITY AND LIQUIDITY
One of the principal duties of the Bank’s Asset/Liability Management Committee (“ALCO”) is management of interest rate risk. The Bank utilizes quarterly asset/liability reports prepared by a regional correspondent bank to project the impact on net interest income that might occur with hypothetical interest rate changes. The committee monitors and manages asset and liability strategies and pricing in order to manage interest rate risk.
Another function of the ALCO is maintaining adequate liquidity and planning for future liquidity needs. Having adequate liquidity means the ability to meet current needs, including deposit withdrawals and commitments, in an orderly manner without sacrificing earnings. The Bank funds its investing activities, including making loans and purchasing investments, by attracting deposits and utilizing short-term borrowings when necessary.
The Company’s ALCO meets on a monthly basis in order to assess interest rate risk, liquidity, capital and overall balance sheet management through rate shock analysis measuring various interest rate scenarios over the future 12 months. Through ALCO, the Company is able to determine fluctuations to net interest income from changes in the Prime Rate of up to 300 basis points up or down during a 12-month period. ALCO also reviews policies and procedures related to funds management and interest rate risk based on local, national and global economic conditions along with funding strategies and balance sheet management to minimize the potential impact of earnings and liquidity from interest rate movements.
Additional information regarding interest rate risk is included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009. The Company has not had any material changes in the overall interest rate risk profile since December 31, 2009.
At June 30, 2010, liquid assets (cash and due from banks, interest-earning deposits with banks, fed funds sold, and investment securities available for sale) totaled $184,030,724, which represented 32.1% of total assets.
