Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by such forward-looking statements include, among other things, the following possibilities: (i) an inability of the Company to realize elements of its strategic plans for 2007 and beyond; (ii) increases in competitive pressure in the banking industry; (iii) general economic conditions, either nationally or regionally, that are less favorable than expected; (iv) changes in the interest rate environment which reduce margins; (v) management’s assumptions regarding allowance for loan losses may not be borne out by subsequent events; and (vi) changes which occur in the regulatory environment. When used in this presentation, the words “believes,” “estimates,” “plans,” “expects,” “should,” “may,” “might,” “outlook,” and “anticipates,” and similar expressions as they related to the Company, or Atlantic Southern Bank, are intended to identify forward-looking statements.
