NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JUNE 30, 2006 AND 2005 AND DECEMBER 31, 2005

NOTE 1. NATURE OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of Business

SI Financial Group, Inc. (the “Company”) is the parent holding company for Savings Institute Bank and Trust Company (the “Bank”). Established in 1842, the Bank is a community-oriented financial institution headquartered in Willimantic, Connecticut. The Bank provides a variety of financial services to individuals, businesses and municipalities through its eighteen offices in eastern Connecticut. The primary products include savings, checking and certificates of deposit accounts, residential and commercial mortgage loans, commercial business loans and consumer loans. In addition, wealth management services, which include trust, financial planning, life insurance and investment services are offered to individuals and businesses through the Bank’s Connecticut offices. Trust operations in Vermont provide third-party trust outsourcing services to other community banks located throughout the country. SI Bancorp, MHC, the Company’s mutual holding company parent, does not conduct any business other than owning a majority of the common stock of SI Financial Group, Inc.

On November 15, 2005, the Company acquired certain assets of two trust services businesses, Private Trust Services and Bank Trust Services (“SI Trust Servicing”), from the former Circle Trust Company headquartered in Darien, Connecticut. SI Trust Servicing, located in Rutland, Vermont, is a third-party provider of trust outsourcing services for other financial institutions. The acquisition was accounted for as an asset purchase transaction with total cash consideration funded through internal sources. The purchase price was allocated to the net assets acquired with the excess purchase price resulting in goodwill.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Savings Institute Bank and Trust Company, and the Bank’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, 803 Financial Corp., SI Mortgage Company and SI Realty Company, Inc. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Basis of Financial Statement Presentation

The interim consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information, with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission and generally accepted practices within the banking industry. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements have been omitted. Information in the accompanying interim consolidated financial statements and notes to the financial statements of the Company as of June 30, 2006 and for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 is unaudited. These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements of the Company and the accompanying notes for the year ended December 31, 2005 contained in the Company’s Form 10-K.

Interim financial statements are subject to possible adjustment in connection with the annual audit of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2006. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements reflect all of the adjustments (consisting only of normal and recurring in nature) necessary for a fair presentation of the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows as of and for the period covered herein. The results of operations for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the twelve months ending December 31, 2006.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities, as of the date of the statement of financial condition and reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the periods presented. Actual results could differ from those estimates. A material estimate that is particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relates to the determination of the allowance for loan losses and the impairment of long-lived assets.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JUNE 30, 2006 AND 2005 AND DECEMBER 31, 2005

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Financial Accounting Standards No. 156,“Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets,” which amends Financial Accounting Standards No. 140,“Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities,” with respect to the accounting for servicing of financial assets. This Statement requires that all separately recognized servicing rights be initially measured at fair value, if practicable. For each class of separately recognized servicing assets and liabilities, this Statement permits an entity to choose either of the following subsequent measurement methods: (1) amortize servicing assets or liabilities in proportion to and over the period of estimated net servicing income or net servicing loss; or (2) report servicing assets or liabilities at fair value at each reporting date and report changes in fair value in earnings in the period in which the changes occur. This Statement also requires additional disclosures for all separately recognized servicing rights and is effective for new transactions occurring and for subsequent measurement at the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006. This Statement is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes,” which is an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” This Interpretation clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a Company’s financial statements, prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position in the tax return and provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosures and transition. The effective date of this Interpretation is for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company does not expect this Interpretation to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 2. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic net income per common share is calculated by dividing the net income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per common share is computed in a manner similar to basic net income per common share except that the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding is increased to include the incremental common shares (as computed using the treasury stock method) that would have been outstanding if all potentially dilutive common stock equivalents were issued during the period. The Company’s common stock equivalents relate solely to stock option and restricted stock awards. Anti-dilutive shares are common stock equivalents with weighted-average exercise prices in excess of the weighted-average market value for the periods presented. The Company had anti-dilutive common shares outstanding of 469,450 and 468,314 for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2006, respectively. The Company had anti-dilutive common shares outstanding of 230,934 and 116,105 for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2005, respectively. Treasury shares and unallocated common shares held by the ESOP are not included in the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for purposes of calculating both basic and diluted net income per common share. Unvested restricted shares are only included in dilutive net income per common share computations.

Allowance for Loan Losses.The allowance for loan losses, a material estimate which could change significantly in the near-term, is established through a provision for loan losses charged to earnings to account for losses that are inherent in the loan portfolio and estimated to occur, and is maintained at a level that management considers adequate to absorb losses in the loan portfolio. Loans are charged against the allowance for loan losses when management believes that the uncollectibility of the principal balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance for loan losses when received. The Bank evaluates the allowance for loan losses on a monthly basis.

Management’s judgment in determining the adequacy of the allowance is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available. The allowance for loan losses is evaluated on a monthly basis by management and is based on the evaluation of the known and inherent risk characteristics and size and composition of the loan portfolio, the assessment of current economic and real estate market conditions, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying collateral, historical loan loss experience, regulatory examination and evaluations of loans and other relevant factors.

The methodology for assessing the appropriateness of the allowance for loan losses consists of the following key elements:

• Specific allowances for identified problem loans, including loans that are classified as doubtful, substandard or special mention. For such loans that are also classified as impaired, an allowance is established when the discounted cash flows (or collateral value or observable market price) of the impaired loan is lower than the carrying value of that loan.

• General valuation allowance on certain identified problem loans which include loans on the Managed Asset Report that do not have an individual allowance. These loans are segregated by loan category and assigned allowance percentages based on the inherent losses associated with each type of lending.

• General valuation allowance on the remainder of the loan portfolio, which covers nonclassified loans and is based on historical loss experience adjusted for qualitative factors.

• Unallocated component is maintained to cover uncertainties that could affect management’s estimate of probable losses. The unallocated component of the allowance reflects the margin of imprecision inherent in the underlying assumptions used in the methodologies for estimating specific and general losses in the portfolio.

The following table summarizes the activity in the allowance for loan losses at and for the three months and the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005.

NOTE 7. EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN

Under the SI Financial Group, Inc. 2005 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Incentive Plan”), the Company may grant up to 615,623 stock options and 246,249 shares of restricted stock to its employees, officers, directors and directors emeritus. Both incentive stock options and non-statutory stock options may be granted under the plan. Stock option and restricted stock awards vest at 20% per year beginning on the first anniversary of the date of grant.See additional details relating to the Incentive Plan in Note 11 of the consolidated financial statements in the Company’s 2005 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Effective for the quarter ended June 30, 2005, the Company adopted the provisions of FASB’s Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123,“Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”(“SFAS 123(R)”) for recognizing the cost of employee services received in share-based payment arrangements. In accordance with SFAS 123(R), the Company records share-based compensation expense related to outstanding stock option and restricted stock awards based upon the fair value at the date of grant over the vesting period of such awards on a straight-line basis. The fair value of the restricted stock awards, which is equal to the market price at the date of grant, was recorded as unearned restricted shares. The fair value of each stock option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, which included several assumptions such as volatility, expected dividends, expected term and risk-free rate for each stock option award. For the three months and six months ended June 30, 2006, the Company recorded share-based compensation expense of $191,000 and $382,000, respectively, and $96,000 for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2005.

For the six months ended June 30, 2006, the Company granted 10,000 stock options at a fair value of $3.64 per share. Using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, the following assumptions were used to determine the weighted-average fair value of stock options granted:

Dividend yield:	1.50	%
Expected volatility:	20.02	%
Risk-free rate:	4.57	%
Expected life in years:	10 years

NOTE 8. REGULATORY CAPITAL

The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the Office of Thrift Supervision, including a risk-based capital measure. The risk-based capital guidelines include both a definition of capital and a framework for calculating risk-weighted assets by assigning balance sheet assets and off-balance sheet items to broad risk categories. As a savings and loan holding company regulated by the Office of Thrift Supervision, the Company is not subject to any separate regulatory capital requirements.

At June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which it was subject and the Bank is considered “well capitalized” under regulatory guidelines.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following analysis discusses changes in financial condition at June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005 and results of operations for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, appearing in Part I, Item I of this document, as well as with Management’s Discussion and Analysis included in the Company’s 2005 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Forward-Looking Statements

This report contains forward-looking statements that are based on assumptions and may describe future plans, strategies and expectations of the Company. These forward-looking statements are generally identified by the use of the words“believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “project” or similar expressions. The Company’s ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Factors that could have a material adverse effect on the operations of the Company and its subsidiaries include, but are not limited to, changes in interest rates, national and regional economic conditions, legislative and regulatory changes, monetary and fiscal policies of the United States government, including policies of the United States Treasury and the Federal Reserve Board, the quality and composition of the loan or investment portfolios, demand for loan products, deposit flows, competition, demand for financial services in the Company’s market area, changes in real estate market values in the Company’s market area and changes in relevant accounting principles and guidelines. Additional factors that may affect the Company’s results are discussed in this document under Item 1A – Risk Factors and in the Company’s Form 10-K under Item 1A – Risk Factors. These risks and uncertainties should be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. Except as required by applicable law or regulation, the Company does not undertake, and specifically disclaims any obligation, to release publicly the result of any revisions that may be made to any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of the statements or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events.

Critical Accounting Policies

The Company considers accounting policies involving significant judgments and assumptions by management that have, or could have, a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets or on income to be critical accounting policies. The Company considers the allowance for loan losses and the impairment of long-lived assets to be its critical accounting policies.Additional information about the Company’s accounting policies is included in Notes 1 and 4 of the consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this document and Items 1 and 8 in the Company’s 2005 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Allowance for Loan Losses. Determining the amount of allowance for loan losses necessarily involves a high degree of judgment. Management reviews the level of the allowance on a monthly basis and establishes the provision for loan losses based on the size and the composition of the loan portfolio, delinquency levels, loss experience, economic conditions, and other factors related to the collectibility of the loan portfolio. The level of the allowance for loan losses fluctuates primarily due to changes in the size and composition of the loan portfolio and in the level of nonperforming loans, classified assets and charge-offs. A portion of the allowance is established by segregating the loans by loan category and assigning allocation percentages based on historical loss experience and delinquency trends. The applied loss factors are re-evaluated annually to ensure their relevance in the current real estate environment. Accordingly, increases in the size of the loan portfolio and the increased emphasis on commercial real estate and commercial business loans, which carry a higher degree of risk of default and, thus, a higher allocation percentage, increases the allowance. To a lesser extent, the purchase of indirect automobile loans during 2006 increased the allowance for loan losses due to the higher risk of loss associated with this type of consumer lending. Additionally, a portion of the allowance is established based on the level of specific nonperforming loans, classified assets or charged-off loans. An unallocated component is maintained in the allowance to cover uncertainties that could affect management’s estimate of probable losses.

15

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets. The Company is required to record certain assets it has acquired, including identifiable intangible assets such as core deposit intangibles, goodwill and certain liabilities that it assumed at fair value, which may involve making estimates based on third party valuations, such as appraisals, or internal valuations based on discounted cash flow analyses or other valuation techniques. Further, long-lived assets, including intangible assets and premises and equipment, that are held and used by the Company, are presumed to have a useful life. The determination of the useful lives of intangible assets is subjective, as is the appropriate amortization period for such intangible and long-lived assets. Additionally, long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment annually at a minimum or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. If impairment is indicated by that review, the asset is written down to its estimated fair value through a charge to noninterest expenses. Testing for impairment is a subjective process, the application of which could result in different evaluations of impairment.

Comparison of Financial Condition at June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005

Assets:

Summary.The Company’s total assets increased $39.6 million, or 5.7%, to $731.4 million at June 30, 2006, as compared to $691.9 million at December 31, 2005, primarily due to increases in net loans receivable of $38.6 million, available for sale securities of $6.3 million, other assets of $586,000 and Federal Home Loan Bank stock of $569,000, offset by a $7.1 million decrease in cash and cash equivalents. Other assets increased primarily due to other investments and receivables. Federal Home Loan Bank stock increased to $6.2 million at June 30, 2006, resulting from the implementation of the Federal Home Loan Bank’s new capital plan and to support a higher level of Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings. The decrease in cash and cash equivalents resulted from the funding of loans and the purchase of investment securities.

Loans Receivable, Net.The Company’s net loan portfolio increased 7.5% to $552.4 million as a result of strong loan originations, offset by loan sales of $4.7 million of fixed-rate residential mortgage loans during the first half of 2006. The sale of loans is expected to mitigate the Company’s exposure to interest rate risk while improving liquidity. Loan originations increased 8.7% and 17.4% for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2006, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2005. The level of loan closings was strong due to several factors, including promotional and sales activities, competitive pricing initiatives, a strong housing market and a relatively stable local economy. Changes in the loan portfolio consisted of the following:

• Residential Mortgage Loans. Despite mortgage loan sales, residential mortgage loans increased $24.5 million, or 9.2%. Loan originations for residential mortgage loans increased 16.7% to $56.2 million for the first half of 2006 compared to the same period in 2005.

16

• Commercial Loans. Commercial real estate and commercial business loans, increased $9.9 million, or 5.5%, due to the Company’s continued emphasis on the commercial market. Commercial mortgage and business loan originations increased 33.8% for 2006 compared to 2005.

• Consumer Loans. The increase of $8.7 million, or 36.4%, reflects the purchase of $10.3 million of indirect automobile loans during the first quarter of 2006. Although automobile loans typically involve a higher degree of credit risk, they generally provide a higher rate of return and were therefore, purchased with the intention of supplementing the Company’s interest income during this period of lower net interest margins. Consumer loan originations were lower in 2006 due to a decrease in home equity lines of credit as a result of the variable-rate nature of the product and rising market interest rates.

The allowance for losses totaled $4.1 million, representing 0.73% of total loans at June 30, 2006, compared to $3.7 million, or 0.71% of total loans, at December 31, 2005. The allowance has increased as a percent of total loans primarily due to increases in the commercial and consumer loan portfolios, which carry a higher risk of default compared to residential mortgage loans.

Investment Activities.At June 30, 2006, the Company’s investment portfolio, excluding Federal Home Loan Bank stock, consisted solely of available for sale securities which amounted to $126.3 million, or 17.3% of assets. At December 31, 2005, the Company’s available for sale securities totaled $120.0 million, or 17.3% of assets. The increase in available for sale securities of $6.3 million, or 5.2%, was primarily due to net purchases of government-sponsored enterprises and mortgage-backed securities. The Company’s decision to invest primarily in government-sponsored enterprises and mortgage-backed securities was based on a combination of higher-yielding interest rates and predictability of cash flows arising from these securities.

Liabilities:

Summary. Total liabilities increased $39.9 million, or 6.5%, from December 31, 2005 to June 30, 2006 primarily as a result of net increases in deposits of $33.1 million and net proceeds from Federal Home Loan Bank advances of $6.7 million. The increase in Federal Home Loan Bank advances of 7.7% to $94.7 million at June 30, 2006 represented short-term fixed-rate advances with terms of three months to three years used to fund loan growth and to manage interest rate risk.

Deposits.Deposits, including mortgagors’ and investors’ escrow accounts, increased $32.9 million, or 6.4%, to $545.2 million at June 30, 2006. Noninterest-bearing accounts increased $4.0 million related to higher balances in primarily business checking accounts. Interest-bearing deposits increased $29.1 million, or 6.4%, primarily due to increases in certificates of deposits. Certificates of deposit increased $34.0 million, or 13.9%, as a result of branch expansion, promotional rates, competitive pricing and marketing efforts to capitalize on the consolidation of financial institutions within the Bank’s market area. Savings accounts decreased $4.8 million mainly due to a reduction in passbook and money market savings accounts, of which a portion transferred to the Bank’s certificate of deposit products. Additionally, brokered deposits increased $2.1 million in 2006.

Equity:

Summary. Total stockholders’ equity decreased $341,000 to $79.7 million at June 30, 2006. The decrease in equity was primarily attributable to stock repurchases of 129,266 shares at a cost of $1.4 million, an increase in net unrealized holding losses on available for sale securities aggregating $665,000 (net of taxes) and dividends declared of $363,000, offset by earnings of $1.6 million.

17

Net Unrealized Losses on Available for Sale Securities. Unrealized holding losses on available for sale securities, net of taxes, increased $665,000 to $2.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006, primarily due to a decline in the market value of the debt securities portfolio, which was recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss on the consolidated balance sheet and the consolidated statement of changes in stockholders’ equity. Management believes that none of the unrealized losses on these securities are other than temporary because substantially all of the unrealized losses relate to debt and mortgage-backed securities issued by the U.S. Treasury, government-sponsored enterprises or private issuers that maintain investment grade ratings, which the Company has both the intent and the ability to hold until maturity or until the fair value fully recovers. In addition, management considers the issuers of the securities to be financially sound and believes the Company will receive all contractual principal and interest related to these investments.

Results of Operations for the Three Months and Six Months Ended June 30, 2006 and 2005

General.The Company’s results of operations depend primarily on net interest and dividend income, which is the difference between the interest and dividend income earned on the Company’s interest-earning assets, such as loans and investments, and the interest expense on its interest-bearing liabilities, such as deposits and borrowings. The Company also generates noninterest income such as gains on securities and loan sales, fees from deposit and trust and investment management services, insurance commissions, increases in cash surrender value of bank-owned life insurance and other fees. The Company’s noninterest expenses consist of salaries and employee benefits, occupancy and equipment, computer and electronic banking services, outside professional services, marketing and other general and administrative expenses. The Company’s results of operations are also significantly affected by general economic and competitive conditions, particularly changes in market interest rates, governmental policies and actions of regulatory agencies.

Summary.The Company recorded net income of $757,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2006, a decrease of $88,000 compared to $845,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2005. The decrease was primarily attributable to an increase in noninterest expenses of $1.2 million, offset by increases of $648,000 in net interest income and $376,000 in noninterest income and decreases of $46,000 in the provision for income taxes and $10,000 in the provision for loan losses.

Net income decreased $195,000, or 11.2%, to $1.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006 due to increases of $2.3 million in noninterest expenses and $170,000 in the provision for loan losses, offset by increases of $1.2 million in noninterest income and $982,000 in net interest income and a decrease of $74,000 in the provision for income taxes.

For both the three months and the six months ended June 30, 2006, net interest income rose in response to an increase in average interest-earning assets and higher average yields, offset by an increase in the cost of funds. Despite increases in net interest income for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2006, the net interest margin decreased 11 basis points and 17 basis points, respectively, from the same periods in 2005. The continual flattening of the yield curve and compression of the margins provides challenges for management in an effort to minimize the impact on net interest income.

21

Interest and Dividend Income. Total interest and dividend income increased $2.2 million, or 26.8%, for the second quarter of 2006. Average interest-earning assets increased $93.2 million, or 15.6%, to $689.7 million, primarily due to higher loan volume. Average loans increased $93.4 million and the rate earned on loans increased 50 basis points to 6.53% for the second quarter of 2006 from 6.03% for the same period in 2005. Increased volume on higher yielding commercial loans and indirect automobile loans contributed to the rise in interest earnings on loans. Additionally, rising interest rates on the Bank’s variable-rate loans had a favorable impact on interest income. Average securities rose $1.8 million, with an increase in yield from 3.96% to 4.32%.

For the six months ended June 30, 2006, interest and dividend income increased $3.8 million to $19.9 million due to a higher average balance of loans and an increase in the average yield from 5.49% to 5.93%. Average yields on loans and investment securities increased 38 basis points and 33 basis points, respectively.

Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $1.5 million, or 54.9%, to $4.4 million for the second quarter of 2006 compared to $2.8 million for the second quarter of 2005, primarily as a result of the rate paid on certificates of deposit and increases in the average balance of deposits and Federal Home Loan Bank advances. The yield on deposit accounts increased 75 basis points due to rising market interest rates, promotional rates and aggressive pricing. Average deposits rose $60.2 million. The average balance on certificates of deposit increased $59.6 million and the average yield increased 90 basis points. The rate paid on subordinated debt borrowings increased 183 basis points from 6.78% to 8.61%. Average Federal Home Loan Bank advances increased $26.0 million and the yield on Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings increased 31 basis points to 4.18%.

For the six months ended June 30, 2006, interest expense increased $2.9 million as a result of increases in both the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities from $498.5 million to $578.4 million and the average yield from 2.19% to 2.88%. The increase of $54.1 million in interest-bearing deposits and the 70 basis point increase in the average yield on deposit accounts were primary attributable to the rise in interest expense for the period. Certificates of deposit contributed $2.1 million to the increase in interest expense for the period.

Provision for Loan Losses. The Company’s provision for loan losses decreased $10,000 to $120,000 in the second quarter of 2006, in part due to lower commercial loan volume compared to the same quarter in 2005. Commercial loans tend to carry a higher risk of default than residential mortgage loans.

For the six months ended June 30, 2006, the provision for loan losses increased $170,000 to $405,000 from $235,000 for the same period in 2005. This increase was primarily the result of the Bank’s commercial and residential mortgage loan growth which increased 10.4% and 9.2%, respectively, and an increase in the Bank’s managed loan portfolio from the prior year-end. Additionally, the purchase of $10.3 million of indirect automobile loans contributed to the provision for loan losses due to the increased risk of loss associated with consumer lending.

The Company believes that its conservative underwriting standards; strong collection efforts as well as a favorable real estate market have contributed to the quality of the loan portfolio. The quality of the loan portfolio is evidenced by a reduction in nonperforming loans and by the low volume of loan charge-offs. At June 30, 2006, nonperforming loans totaled $204,000 compared to $950,000 at June 30, 2005. For the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, net recoveries from loan losses totaled $1,000 and $75,000, respectively. Despite the quality of the loan portfolio, the Company continues to monitor the impact that rising interest rates will have on variable-rate borrowers’ ability to repay higher monthly interest payments.

Noninterest Income. The following table shows the components of noninterest income and the dollar and percentage changes for the periods presented.

Service fees increased principally as a result of branch expansion and increased utilization of deposit-related products and electronic banking for 2006. Wealth management fees, which include trust and investment service fees, rose primarily due to fee income from SI Trust Servicing, the Bank’s third-party trust outsourcing service that was acquired in November 2005. The net loss on the sale of securities in 2006 resulted from the sale of $4.0 million of government-sponsored enterprise securities, which were in an unrealized loss position, during the second quarter of 2006. Net gains on the sale of loans reflect the sale of $4.7 million of loans during the first half of 2006 compared to $31.6 million of loan losses during the same period in 2005.

Noninterest Expenses. The following table shows the components of noninterest expenses and the dollar and percentage changes for the periods presented.

(Dollars in Thousands)	Three Months Ended June 30,									Six Months Ended June 30,
	2006		2005		$ Change			% Change		2006	2005		$ Change			% Change

Noninterest expenses increased for both the three months and the six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to the same periods in 2005, primarily due to increased operating costs associated with the expansion of branch offices and the acquisition of SI Trust Servicing. Increases in salaries and employee benefits reflect higher staffing levels and the amortization of share-based compensation arrangements. The adoption of SFAS 123(R) during the second quarter of 2005 resulted in share-based compensation expense of $191,000 and $382,000, respectively, for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2006. For the quarter and the six months ended June 30, 2005, share-based compensation expense totaled $96,000. Additional facility and equipment leases, depreciation expense and other occupancy-related expenses resulted in the increase in occupancy and equipment expenses. Computer and electronic banking services continued to rise as a result of the addition of two branch locations and the acquisition of SI Trust Servicing. Outside professional services decreased as a result of lower legal and auditing expenditures compared to the same periods in the prior year. Marketing and advertising expenses increased as a result of various promotional initiatives related to the Bank’s products and services and new branch openings.

23

Income Tax Provision. For the three months and six months ended June 30, 2006, the Company’s income tax expense decreased $46,000 and $74,000, respectively, as a result of lower taxable income. The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 was 32.5% and 32.7%, respectively, and 33.0% and 32.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity is the ability to meet current and future financial obligations of a short-term nature. The Company’s primary sources of funds consist of deposit inflows, loan repayments and sales, maturities and sales of investment securities and borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank. While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans and securities are predictable sources of funds, deposit flows, mortgage prepayments and loan sales are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition.

The Company’s most liquid assets are cash and cash equivalents. The levels of these assets depend on the Company’s operating, financing and investing activities during any given period. At June 30, 2006, cash and cash equivalents totaled $18.9 million, which included interest-bearing deposits and federal funds sold of $2.7 million.

Securities classified as available for sale, which provide additional sources of liquidity, totaled $126.3 million at June 30, 2006. In addition, at June 30, 2006, the Company had the ability to borrow $223.5 million from the Federal Home Loan Bank, which included overnight lines of credit of $6.2 million, before deducting outstanding advances. On that date, the Company had advances outstanding of $94.7 million and no overnight lines of credit advances outstanding. The Company believes that its most liquid assets combined with the available line from the Federal Home Loan Bank provide adequate liquidity to meet its current financial obligations.

The Company’s primary investing activities are the origination of loans and the purchase of securities. For the six months ended June 30, 2006, the Company originated $99.5 million of loans and purchased $17.6 million of securities, excluding Federal Home Loan Bank stock. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2005, the Company originated $183.8 million of loans and purchased $27.0 million of securities.

Financing activities consist primarily of activities in deposit accounts and Federal Home Loan Bank advances. Liquidity needed to fund asset growth has been provided through deposits, Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings, raising capital through the issuance of trust preferred securities and the initial public offering. The Company experienced a net increase in total deposits, including mortgagors’ and investors’ escrow accounts, of $32.9 million, $51.8 million and $43.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Certificates of deposit due within one year of June 30, 2006 totaled $170.0 million, or 31.2%, of total deposits (including mortgagors’ and investors’ escrow accounts). Deposit flows are affected by the overall level of interest rates, products offered by the Company and its local competitors and other factors. The Company generally manages the pricing of its deposits to be competitive and to increase core deposits and commercial banking relationships. Occasionally, the Company offers promotional rates on certain deposit products to attract deposits. The Company believes, based on past experience that a significant portion of the certificates of deposit will remain with the Bank. The Company experienced a net increase of $6.7 million in Federal Home Loan Bank advances for the six months ended June 30, 2006 to fund loan demand and to invest in securities. The Company had net increases of $15.3 million and $15.5 million in Federal Home Loan Bank advances for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2006, the Company repurchased 129,266 shares of common stock at a cost of $1.4 million.Additional discussion about the Company’s liquidity and capital resources is contained in Item 7 in the Company’s 2005 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Reference the comparison of financial condition in this report for further details on the Company’s capital resources.

Payments Due Under Contractual Obligations

Information relating to payments due under contractual obligations is presented in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005. There were no material changes in the Company’s payments due under contractual obligations for the six months ended June 30, 2006.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

In the normal course of operations, the Company engages in a variety of financial transactions that, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, are not recorded in its financial statements. These transactions involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit, interest rate and liquidity risk. Such transactions are used primarily to manage customers’ requests for funding and take the form of loan commitments, lines of credit and letters of credit.

The contractual amount of commitments to extend credit represent the amount of potential accounting losses should the contract be fully drawn upon, the customer defaults and the value of any existing collateral becomes worthless. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments. Financial instruments whose contract amounts represent credit risk at June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005 are as follows:

(Dollars in Thousands)	June 30, 2006		December 31, 2005
Commitments to extend credit:(1)
Future loan commitments(2)	$	14,540	$	31,192
Undisbursed construction loans		34,295		25,572
Undisbursed home equity lines of credit		21,075		21,481
Undisbursed commercial lines of credit		12,116		10,796
Overdraft protection lines		1,393		1,277
Standby letters of credit(3)		1,048		812
Loans sold with recourse(4)		62		66
TOTAL COMMITMENTS	$	84,529	$	91,196

⁽¹⁾ 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 may require payment of a fee and generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses.

⁽²⁾ Includes fixed-rate loan commitments of $4.2 million at interest rates ranging from 5.375% to 8.250% and $5.5 million at interest rates ranging from 4.875% to 8.000% at June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively.

⁽³⁾ Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party.

⁽⁴⁾ Loan repurchase commitments are agreements to repurchase loans previously sold upon the occurrence of conditions established in the contract including default by the underlying borrower.

Outstanding commitments for the construction of new branch facilities in the aggregate totaled approximately $875,000 and $870,000 at June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively.

For the six months ended June 30, 2006, with the exception of the aforementioned commitments, the Company did not engage in any additional off-balance sheet transactions reasonably likely to have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.See Note 12 to the consolidated financial statements contained in the Company’s 2005 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Qualitative Aspects of Market Risk

The primary market risk factor affecting the financial condition and operating results of the Company is interest rate risk. Interest rate risk is the exposure of current and future earnings and capital arising from movements in interest rates. This risk is managed by periodic evaluation of the interest rate risk inherent in interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities in an effort to minimize the adverse effects of changes in the interest rate environment. Deposit accounts typically react more quickly to changes in market interest rates than mortgage loans because of the shorter maturities of deposits. As a result, sharp increases in interest rates may adversely affect earnings while decreases in interest rates may beneficially affect earnings. To reduce the potential volatility of earnings, the Company has sought to improve the match between asset and liability maturities and rates, while maintaining an acceptable interest rate spread. Pursuant to this strategy, the Company originates adjustable-rate mortgage loans for retention in its loan portfolio. However, the ability to originate adjustable-rate loans depends, to a great extent, on market interest rates and borrowers’ preferences. As an alternative to adjustable-rate mortgage loans, the Company offers fixed-rate mortgage loans with maturities of fifteen years. This product enables the Company to compete in the fixed-rate mortgage market while maintaining a shorter maturity. Fixed-rate mortgage loans typically have an adverse effect on interest rate sensitivity compared to adjustable-rate loans. Accordingly, the Company has sold more long-term fixed-rate mortgage loans in the secondary market in recent periods to manage interest rate risk. In recent years, the Company also has used investment securities with terms of three years or less, longer-term borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank and brokered deposits to help manage interest rate risk. The Company currently does not participate in hedging programs, interest rate swaps or other activities involving the use of derivative financial instruments.

The Company has an Asset/Liability Committee to communicate, coordinate and control all aspects involving asset/liability management. The committee establishes and monitors the volume, maturities, pricing and mix of assets and funding sources with the objective of managing assets and funding sources to provide results that are consistent with liquidity, growth, risk limits and profitability goals.

Quantitative Aspects of Market Risk

The Company analyzes its interest rate sensitivity position to manage the risk associated with interest rate movements through the use of interest income simulation. The matching of assets and liabilities may be analyzed by examining the extent to which such assets and liabilities are “interest rate sensitive.” An asset or liability is said to be interest rate sensitive within a specific time period if it will mature or reprice within that time period. The Company’s goal is to manage asset and liability positions to moderate the effect of interest rate fluctuations on net interest income.

Income Simulation Analysis. Interest income simulations are completed quarterly and presented to the Company’s Asset/Liability Committee. The simulations provide an estimate of the impact of changes in interest rates on net interest income under a range of assumptions. The numerous assumptions used in the simulation process are reviewed by the Asset/Liability Committee on a quarterly basis. Changes to these assumptions can significantly affect the results of the simulation. The simulation incorporates assumptions regarding the potential timing in the repricing of certain assets and liabilities when market rates change and the changes in spreads between different market rates. The simulation analysis incorporates management’s current assessment of the risk that pricing margins will change adversely over time due to competition or other factors.

Simulation analysis is only an estimate of the Company’s interest rate risk exposure at a particular point in time. The Company continually reviews the potential effect that changes in interest rates could have on the repayment of rate sensitive assets and funding requirements of rate sensitive liabilities.

The tables below set forth an approximation of the Company’s exposure as a percentage of estimated net interest income for the next twelve and twenty-four-month periods using interest income simulation. The simulation uses projected repricing of assets and liabilities at June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005 on the basis of contractual maturities, anticipated repayments and scheduled rate adjustments. Prepayment rates can have a significant impact on interest income simulation. Because of the Company’s large percentage of loans and mortgage-backed securities, rising or falling interest rates have a significant impact on the prepayment speeds of its earning assets that in turn affect the rate sensitivity position. The prepayment rates on investment securities are assumed to fluctuate between 8% and 15% in a flat interest rate environment, between 6% and 12% in an increasing interest rate environment and between 18% and 24% in a decreasing interest rate environment, depending on the type of security. Loan prepayment rates are assumed to fluctuate between 6% and 18% in a flat interest rate environment, between 6% and 15% in a rising rate environment and between 6% and 36% in a falling rate environment, depending on the type of loan. As evidenced by these assumptions, when interest rates rise, prepayments tend to slow and when interest rates fall, prepayments tend to increase. The Company’s asset sensitivity would be reduced if prepayments slow and vice versa. Because prospective effects of hypothetical interest rate changes are based on a number of assumptions, these computations should not be relied upon as indicative of actual results. While the Company believes such assumptions to be reasonable, there can be no assurance that assumed prepayment rates will approximate actual future mortgage-backed securities, collateralized mortgage obligations and loan repayment activity. Further, the computations do not reflect any actions that management may undertake in response to changes in interest rates. Management periodically reviews its rate assumptions based on existing and projected economic conditions.

The Company’s management generally simulates changes to net interest income using three different interest rate scenarios. The first scenario anticipates the maximum foreseeable increase in rates over the next twelve months; management assumes this to be 200 basis points at June 30, 2006 and 300 basis points at December 31, 2005. The second scenario anticipates management’s view of the most likely change in interest rates over the next twelve months; management’s current assumption is a 100 basis point increase in rates. The third scenario anticipates the maximum foreseeable decrease in rates over the next twelve months; management’s assumption is 200 basis points. The basis point change in each of the three scenarios is assumed to occur evenly over both the twelve and twenty-four months presented. As of June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, the Company’s estimated exposure as a percentage of estimated net interest income for the twelve-month and twenty-four-month periods are as follows:

June 30, 2006:	Percent Change in Estimated Net Interest Income Over
	12 Months		24 Months
200 basis point increase in rates	(6.57	)%	(7.88	)%
100 basis point increase in rates	(3.20	)	(4.07	)
200 basis point decrease in rates	(0.56	)	(4.69	)
December 31, 2005:	Percent Change in Estimated Net Interest Income Over
	12 Months		24 Months
300 basis point increase in rates	(3.36	)%	(5.56	)%
100 basis point increase in rates	0.44		1.54
200 basis point decrease in rates	(4.28	)	(7.55	)

As of June 30, 2006, based on the scenarios above, net interest income would be adversely affected in both the twelve and twenty-four-month periods if interest rates rose by 100 and 200 basis points or if interest rates decreased 200 basis points. Using net interest income for the quarter ended June 30, 2006, for each percentage point change in net interest income, the effect on the Company’s annual net income would be $159,000, assuming a 34% income tax rate.

27

As of December 31, 2005, based on the scenarios above, net interest income would be adversely affected in both the twelve and twenty-four-month periods if interest rates rose by 300 basis points or if interest rates decreased 200 basis points and favorably impacted by a 100 basis point increase in rates. Using net interest income for the quarter ended December 31, 2005, for each percentage point change in net interest income, the effect on the Company’s annual net income would be $148,000, assuming a 34% income tax rate.

For both the twelve and twenty-four-month periods, the effect on net interest income has improved in the event of a sudden and sustained decrease in prevailing market interest rates of 200 basis points at June 30, 2006 compared to December 31, 2005 and net interest income has declined as rates increase. As a result, the Company’s strategy is to better position the balance sheet for the anticipated economic slowdown by shortening the maturities on borrowings and certificates of deposit, while lengthening the durations of investment securities.
