Forward-Looking Statements
Management’s discussion of the Company and management’s analysis of the Company’s operations and prospects, and other matters, may include forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and other provisions of federal and state securities laws. Although the Company believes that the assumptions underlying such forward-looking statements contained in this Report are reasonable, any of the assumptions could be inaccurate and, accordingly, there can be no assurance that the forward-looking statements included herein will prove to be accurate. The use of such words as expect, anticipate, forecast, project, and comparable terms should be understood by the reader to indicate that the statement is “forward-looking” and thus subject to change in a manner that can be unpredictable. Factors that could cause actual results to differ from the results anticipated, but not guaranteed, in this Report, include (without limitation) economic and social conditions, competition for loans, mortgages, fluctuations in the mortgage industry and other financial services and products, changes in interest rates, unforeseen changes in liquidity, results of operations, and financial conditions affecting the Company’s customers, as well as other risks that cannot be accurately quantified or completely identified. Many factors affecting the Company’s financial condition and profitability, including changes in economic conditions, the volatility of interest rates, the demands for housing and real estate, political events and competition from other providers of financial services simply cannot be predicted. Because these factors are unpredictable and beyond the Company’s control, earnings may fluctuate from period to period. The purpose of this type of information is to provide Form 10-Q readers with information relevant to understanding and assessing the financial condition and results of operations of the Company, and not to predict the future or to guarantee results. The Company is unable to predict the types of circumstances, conditions, and factors that can cause anticipated results to change. Except as may be expressly required by applicable law, the Company does not undertake and specifically disclaims any plan or obligations to publicly release the result of any revisions that may be made to any forward-looking statements to reflect actual events, changes, circumstances or results.

In the opinion of management, the consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments and disclosures necessary to summarize fairly the financial position of Mid-America Bancshares, Inc. (the “Company”) as of September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006 and the net earnings for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, comprehensive earnings for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, and changes in cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated. The interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the notes to the December 31, 2006 consolidated financial statements. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the complete fiscal year.
(2) Share Exchange
Effective September 1, 2006, the Company completed a share exchange with Bank of the South. For accounting purposes the transaction was treated as an acquisition of Bank of the South. In connection with the acquisition, 6,792,838 shares of the Company’s common stock were issued along with $11,000 of cash for fractional shares in exchange for 100% of the outstanding shares of Bank of the South (this represents a 2.1814 to 1 share exchange ratio). This resulted in a purchase price of $59,516,000 based on a valuation of the Company’s stock prior to the acquisition of $8.76 per share. The net earnings of Bank of the South for the period from September 1, 2006 through September 30, 2006 are included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

(3) Allowance for Loan Losses
We believe that our determination of the allowance for loan loss is an important judgment and estimate used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. The allowance for loan losses is an amount that management believes will be adequate to absorb estimated losses in the loan portfolio. The calculation is an estimate of the amount of loss in the loan portfolios of our subsidiary banks. A formal review is prepared quarterly by the Credit Administration Officer to assess the risk in the portfolio and to determine the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. The review includes analysis of historical performance, the level of non-performing and adversely rated loans, specific analysis of certain problem loans, loan activity since the previous assessment, consideration of current and anticipated economic conditions, and other pertinent information. The level of the allowance to net loans outstanding will vary depending on the overall results of this quarterly assessment. The review is presented to and subsequently approved by the Board of Directors.
The Company uses a 9 point rating system for its loans. Ratings of 1 to 5 are considered pass ratings, 6 is special mention, 7 is substandard, 8 is doubtful and 9 is loss. These ratings are initially assigned by the loan officer and subsequently reviewed and adjusted, when determined to be appropriate, by the Credit Administration department. A summary of internally graded loans is presented in Item 2 of this Report.
Transactions in the allowance for loan losses were as follows:

Balance, September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively | | $ | 8,695 | | | $ | 7,066 | |
| | | | | | |
The provision for loan losses was $632,000 and $1,232,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, respectively. For the same periods in 2006, the provision for loan losses was $83,000 and $247,000. The provision for loan losses is based on past loan experience for comparable institutions and other factors which, in management’s judgment, deserve current recognition in estimating loan losses. Such factors include growth and composition of the loan portfolio, review of specific loan problems, the relationship of the allowance for loan losses to outstanding loans, and current economic conditions that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay. Management has in place a system designed to identify and monitor problems on a timely basis.

(4) Earnings Per Share
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 128 “Earnings Per Share” establishes uniform standards for computing and presenting earnings per share. SFAS No. 128 replaces the presentation of primary earnings per share with the presentation of basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per share. The computation of basic earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. For the Company the computation of diluted earnings per share begins with the basic earnings per share plus the effect of common shares contingently issuable from stock options.
The following is a summary of the components comprising basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006:

Stock Options
Pursuant to the share exchange which became effective on September 1, 2006, the Company assumed the banks’ respective obligations under the PrimeTrust Bank 2001 Statutory-Nonstatutory Stock Option Plan, the PrimeTrust Bank 2005 Statutory-Nonstatutory Stock Option Plan and the Bank of the South 2001 Stock Option Plan. Options previously granted under these plans will continue to be exercisable for shares of holding company stock. All options related to the PrimeTrust Bank plans were converted at a ratio of 2 for 1 and all options related to Bank of the South plans were converted at a ratio of 2.1814 to 1. All options related to the previous plans of PrimeTrust Bank and Bank of the South were, or as a result of the share exchange transaction, became fully vested and thus exercisable. No other options can be issued under the previous plans. Options issued under these bank plans are now exercisable solely for common stock of the Company rather than for securities of the respective bank.
The directors and shareholders of Mid-America Bancshares, Inc. adopted the Mid-America Bancshares, Inc. 2006 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (“Company Plan”) on September 1, 2006. The Equity Incentive Plan will be utilized for future Equity Incentive Awards. Awards granted under the Equity Incentive Plan will be in addition to stock options that may be exercised under the banks’ respective plans. The Company plan provides for granting of stock options, and authorizes the issuance of common stock upon the exercise of such options for up to one million shares (1,000,000) to the employees and directors of the Company. Under the Company Plan, stock option awards may be granted in the form of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted shares, stock units, performance units and other awards. They are generally exercisable for ten years following the date such award is granted.
Restricted Equity Incentives
The Company has authorized the issuance of shares of its common stock for restricted stock awards to employees and non-employee directors. At December 31, 2006, the Board had granted 260,000 restricted shares to executive employees and non-employee directors. The recipients have the right to vote and receive dividends but cannot sell, transfer, assign, exchange, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise encumber the shares so long as restrictions apply. Restrictions lapse at the rate of 10% each year of service. The first restrictions lapsed on September 1, 2007, with respect to 26,000 restricted shares.
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (Revised 2004) SFAS No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment” was adopted by the Company as of January 1, 2006. This accounting standard revises Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (SFAS No. 123), “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” by requiring that all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, be recognized in the financial statements based on their fair values at the date of grant.

Restricted Equity Incentive Plan, Continued
During the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2007, we recorded share-based compensation expense for stock-based awards granted after January 1, 2006, based on the fair value estimated using the Black-Scholes valuation model. For these awards, we have recognized compensation expense using a straight-line amortization method reduced for estimated forfeitures. The impact of recording stock-based compensation in accordance with SFAS No. 123(R) for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2007 is as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Three Months | | | Nine Months | |

| | | | | | |
Impact of stock-based compensation expense, after tax effect | | $ | 60 | | | $ | 182 | |
| | | | | | |
For 2007 the fair value of each equity incentive award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes valuation model that uses the assumptions noted in the following table. Expected volatilities are based on monthly calculations performed by management using industry data. The Company’s expected dividend yield is based on future projections of income and capital level to support anticipated growth. The expected term of equity incentives granted was calculated using the “simplified” method for plain vanilla options as explained in Staff Accounting Bulletin 107. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the equity incentive is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.

| | Stock | | | | |
| | Appreciation | | Restricted | | Stock |
| | Rights | | Stock | | Options |

Risk-free rate | | 4.69% to 5.10% | | | 4.69 | % | | 4.51% to 4.69% |
Expected volatility was most recently calculated at 18.18% based upon the consideration of historical and implied volatility of similar publicly traded companies.
Prior to December 31, 2005, the Company approved the acceleration of vesting of all of its equity incentives that had been granted prior to adoption of SFAS No. 123R. The impact was to eliminate $289,000 from net earnings for periods subsequent to January 1, 2006.

(6) Definitive Merger Agreement
On August 15, 2007, the Company announced that it had entered into an agreement pursuant to which it would merge with and into Pinnacle Financial Partners Inc. (Nasdaq/NGS: PNFP). The following summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Agreement and Plan of Merger (“Agreement”) dated August 15, 2007, by and between the Company and Pinnacle Financial Partners, Inc. (“PNFP”), a copy of which Agreement was filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on that date. Pursuant to the Agreement, Pinnacle agreed to acquire all of the common stock of the Company. The terms of the Agreement specify that each non-dissenting share of the Company will receive 0.4655 shares of Pinnacle common stock and $1.50 in cash, with the result that the merger consideration for Company shares approximates 90 percent paid in Pinnacle common shares and 10 percent paid in cash. Pinnacle filed a Registration Statement on Form S-4 on September 17, 2007, which was assigned Commission File number 333-146128 (“Registration Statement”) and to which the reader should refer for additional information about the Company and the proposed merger. The Company and Pinnacle have distributed a Joint Proxy Statement and Prospectus pursuant to the Registration Statement to their respective shareholders describing items of business, including the Agreement and the proposed merger, to be considered at a special meeting of each company’s shareholders. Presently, the Company expects to hold its special meeting of shareholders on November 27, 2007, at the offices of Bank of the South, 551 North Mt. Juliet Road, Mt. Juliet, Tennessee, to consider and vote upon the Agreement and the proposed merger (among other items of business). Subject to shareholder and regulatory approval and customary closing conditions, the transaction is presently expected to close in late 2007. At that time, the Company will merge with and into Pinnacle and its separate corporate existence will cease.
(7) Acquisition
As referenced in the “Share Exchange”, at note 2 we consummated our share exchange, which we regard as a “merger of equals,” on September 1, 2006. For accounting purposes, the transaction was treated as if the shareholders of PrimeTrust Bank had formed a holding company, exchanged their shares of PrimeTrust Bank for the holding company’s shares, and then acquired Bank of the South. In the share exchange, shareholders of PrimeTrust Bank received 2.00 shares of MBI stock for each share of PrimeTrust Bank stock and shareholders of Bank of the South received 2.1814 shares of MBI stock for each share of Bank of the South stock. Immediately prior to the acquisition of Bank of the South, a reorganization of PrimeTrust Bank occurred whereby 100% of the stock of PrimeTrust Bank was exchanged for 100% of the stock of Mid-America Bancshares, Inc. and then a two-for-one split occurred resulting in 6,814,462 shares being issued to PrimeTrust Bank shareholders. In connection with the acquisition, 6,792,838 shares of Mid-America Bancshares, Inc. were issued to Bank of the South shareholders which results in a 2.1814 exchange ratio to the Bank of the South shareholders. The proforma share exchange was valued at $8.76 per share. All per share amounts for 2005 have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the impact of the 2 of 1 stock split in PrimeTrust Bank stock. The financial information herein includes the activities of Bank of the South since September 1, 2006 and PrimeTrust Bank since January 1, 2006.

In addition to the deposit base premium and goodwill the transaction to acquire Bank of the South resulted in additional allocations of excess purchase price including a loan discount of $2,581,000, a discount on time deposits of $526,000 and a mark to market adjustment of $4,315,000 related to real estate. These items are included in their respective categories in the attached financial statements.

Item 2.Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Result of Operations
General
Mid-America Bancshares (“Mid-America”), Inc. is a two-bank holding company headquartered in Nashville, Tennessee. We began operations as a result of the share exchange between PrimeTrust Bank, a state bank chartered under Tennessee law, that began operations on December 17, 2001, and Bank of the South, a state bank chartered under Tennessee law that began operations on April 30, 2001. The following discussion includes Mid-America and the banks in the references to the Company unless otherwise indicated in the text. Both banks offer a wide range of banking services including checking, savings, money market accounts, certificates of deposit, and loans for consumer, commercial and real estate purposes. The company serves individuals, small to medium-sized businesses, community organizations, and public entities. Our deposits are insured to the extent provided by law through the Bank Insurance Fund administered by the FDIC. The company is subject to regulations, supervisions and examinations by the Tennessee Department of Financial Institutions, the FDIC, the Federal Reserve, and the Securities and Exchange Commission. However, such regulations, supervisions and examinations are for the protection of the consumers, the Deposit Insurance Fund administered by the FDIC, and the banking system, and not for the protection of investors or shareholders. We seek to exercise prudent risk management and lending including diversification of loan category and industry segment, as well as by an identification of credit risks.
We employ approximately 245 staff members in 14 offices located in six contiguous counties in Middle Tennessee. On June 6, 2007, we relocated our headquarters to 2019 Richard Jones Road, Nashville, Tennessee 37215.
Both banks provide full-service brokerage services (selling products such as stocks, bonds, mutual funds, limited partnerships, annuities and other investments, insurance products) through the network arrangement with Raymond James Financial Services, a non-affiliated company. The company benefits from the commissions generated through this arrangement.
At September 30, 2007, total assets equaled $1.09 billion, total loans equaled $817.3 million, total deposits equaled $903.9 million, and shareholders’ equity equaled $107.7 million.
We recorded net-income of $4,849,000 (basic earnings per common share of $0.35) and $1,902,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, an increase 154.9%. This represents an increase in basic earnings per share of 40.0% for the period.
We recorded net-income of $1,792,000, (basic earnings per common share of $0.13) for the third quarter of 2007. This increased 134.2% when compared to our second quarter results in 2006 of net income of $765,000, and represents a 62.5% increase in basic earnings per share. The rapid increase of growth in both our asset base and our income level is a combined result of the “merger of equals” with the Bank of the South, which was consummated on September 1, 2006, and internal organic growth.
Since December 31, 2006, we have experienced substantial growth in our combined company. Total assets have increased $122.8 million, or 12.7%, from $968.0 million at December 31, 2006 to $1.09 billion at September 30, 2007. This asset growth is primarily a result of the increase in our net loan portfolio by $130.6 million or 19.0%.

We have experienced substantial growth in our deposit base. Total deposits have increased $80.2 million since December 31, 2006, from a level of $823.8 million to $903.9 million as of September 30, 2007. Our Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) borrowings increased by $21.1 million from a level of $15.7 million to $36.8 million. These funds were used as part of the funding for our loan and investment portfolio. Our equity increased $4,773,000 (4.6%) since December 31, 2006. This is primarily a result of earnings of $4,849,000, an increase in the unrealized loss on available-for-sale securities net of tax benefits of $643,000, $272,000 from the exercise of vested options and $295,000 from stock based compensation.
The purpose of this discussion is to provide insight into the financial conditions and results of operations of Mid-America Bancshares, Inc. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements filed in conjunction with the forms 10-K and 10-KSB from previous years. The following is a discussion of our financial condition at September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006. The discussions in Item 2 of this report are subject to the caveats contained in the “forward-looking statements” contained in this document.
Although both banks continue to operate as separate entities and both remain separately chartered banks, for purposes of the discussion that follows, reference to the company includes both banks unless otherwise noted.
Critical Accounting Policies
The accounting principles we follow and our methods of applying these principles conform with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and with general practices within the banking industry. In connection with the application of those principles to the determination of our allowance for loan losses (ALL), we have made judgments and estimates which have significantly impacted our financial position and results of operations.
Our management assesses the adequacy of the ALL on a regular basis. This assessment includes procedures to estimate the ALL and test the adequacy and appropriateness of the resulting balance. The ALL consists of two portions: (1) an allocated amount representative of specifically identified credit exposure and exposures readily predictable by historical or comparative experience, and (2) an unallocated amount representative of inherent loss which is not readily identifiable. Even though the ALL is composed of two components, the entire allowance is available to absorb any credit losses.

MID-AMERICA BANCSHARES, INC.
FORM 10-Q
Item 2.Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Result of Operations, Continued
Critical Accounting Policies, Continued
We establish the allocated amount separately for two different risk groups (1) unique loans (commercial loans, including those loans considered impaired); and (2) homogenous loans (generally consumer loans). We base the allocation for unique loans primarily on risk rating grades assigned to each of these loans as a result of our loan management and review processes. Each risk-rating grade is assigned an estimated loss ratio, which is determined based on the experience of management, discussions with banking regulators, historical and current economic conditions and our independent loan review process. We estimate losses on impaired loans based on estimated cash flows discounted at the loan’s original effective interest rate or the underlying collateral value. We also assign estimated loss ratios to our consumer portfolio. However, we base the estimated loss ratios for these homogenous loans on the category of consumer credit (e.g., automobile, residential mortgage, home equity) and not on the results of individual loan reviews.
The unallocated amount is particularly subjective and does not lend itself to an exact mathematical calculation. We use the unallocated amount to absorb inherent losses which may exist as of the balance sheet date for such matters as changes in the local or national economy, the depth or experience of the lending staff, any concentrations of credit in any particular industry group, and new banking laws or regulations. After we assess applicable factors, we evaluate the aggregate unallocated amount based on our management’s experience.
We then test the resulting ALL balance by comparing the balance in the allowance account to historical trends and peer information. Our management then evaluates the result of the procedures performed, including the result of our testing, and concludes on the appropriateness of the balance of the ALL in its entirety. The Board of Directors review the assessment prior to the public filing of financial information.

Results of Operations
The Company had earnings of $1,792,000 and $4,849,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 as compared to earnings of $765,000 and $1,902,000 for the same periods in 2006. The increase is primarily a result of continued growth in the assets of the Company and the share exchange previously discussed. On a per share basis, the net earnings for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2007 resulted in basic earnings per common share of $.13 and $.35, respectively. For the same period in 2006 the net earnings resulted in basic earnings per common share of $.08 and $.25, respectively. On a per share basis, the net earnings for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2007 resulted in diluted earnings per common share of $.13 and $.34, respectively. For the same period in 2006 the net earnings resulted in diluted earnings per common share of $.08 and $.25, respectively.
Net Interest Income
Net interest income represents the amount by which interest earned on various earning assets exceeds interest paid on deposits and other interest-bearing liabilities and is the most significant component of the Company’s earnings. Total interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 was $53,863,000 and $25,877,000, respectively. Total interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 was $29,509,000 and $13,360,000, respectively. This resulted in an increase in net interest income of $11,837,000 or 94.6% during the first nine months of 2007 as compared to the comparable period in the prior year. Total interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 was $18,817,000 and $10,785,000, respectively. Total interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 was $10,170,000 and $5,725,000. This resulted in an increase in net interest income of $3,587,000 or 70.9% during the three months ended September 30, 2007. Net interest income increased as a result of continued growth of the Company and the share exchange previously discussed. Managing interest rate risk is a very subjective exercise based on a wide variety of factors. This activity is based significantly on management’s subjective beliefs about future events (such as potential actions of the Federal Reserve Board and the conduct of competitors) and is never guaranteed.
Provision for Loan Losses
The Company has designed a system calculated and intended to identify weaknesses or losses in its loan portfolio. The provision for loan losses represents a charge to earnings necessary to establish an allowance for loan losses that, in management’s evaluation, is adequate to provide coverage for estimated losses on outstanding loans and to provide for uncertainties in the economy. The provision for loan losses was $632,000 and $1,232,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, respectively. The provision for loan losses was $83,000 and $247,000 for the same periods in 2006.

Item 2.Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Result of Operations, Continued
Provision for Loan Losses, Continued
The allowance for loan losses at September 30, 2007 was $8,695,000 an increase of 12.1% from $7,754,000 at December 31, 2006. The level of the allowance and the amount of the provision involve evaluation of uncertainties and matters of judgment. Management believes the allowance for loan losses at September 30, 2007 to be adequate. The allowance for loan losses was 1.05% and 1.12% of loans at September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively. Asset quality continues to be excellent in that net charge-offs for the third quarter were $175,000 and year to date net charge-offs were $292,000 or .04% of total loans. As a result of the combination of PrimeTrust Bank and Bank of the South, our scope of the internal loan review process has expanded. In addition, both Bank’s, while they remain separately chartered, utilize the same loan grading matrix. As a result of this change, our continued excellent history of asset quality, as evidenced by our nominal charge-off amount, and our expanded loan review process, we have been able to improve the accuracy of our risk grading criteria. Thus, our allowance target has been adjusted.
Non-Interest Income
The Company’s non-interest income consists of service charges on deposit accounts, gain on sale of SBA loans, investment banking fees and commissions, gain on sale of securities, mortgage broker fees and fees on mortgage originations, title company income, and other fees and commissions. Non-interest income increased $2,336,000 or 66.2% to $5,866,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2007 as compared to the same period in 2006. The increase for the quarter ended September 30, 2007 was $550,000 or 40.6% as compared to the same period in 2006. Non-interest income continues to increase as management achieves service and product growth. Management projects that other fees, commissions, investment banking fees and commissions, mortgage broker fees and fees on mortgage originations, title company income and service charges on deposit accounts will increase for the remainder of 2007 due to the expected growth of the Company.
Non-Interest Expense
Non-interest expense consist primarily of salaries and employee benefits, occupancy expenses, furniture and equipment expenses, data processing expense, advertising expense, printing, postage, stationary and supplies, loss on sale of securities, amortization of intangible assets and other operating expenses. Non-interest expense, exclusive of securities losses increased $8,629,000 or 66.0% to $21,705,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2007 as compared to the same period in 2006. The increase for the three months ended September 30, 2007 was $1,981,000 or 37.9% as compared to the same period in 2006. The increases in non-interest expense are attributable primarily to increases in salaries and benefits and occupancy expenses due to continued growth of the Company and the merger as previously discussed. Other operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 increased to $3,188,000 from $1,633,000 from the first nine months of 2006. These expenses include taxes, professional fees, directors fees and general operating costs which increased as a result of continued growth of the Company. A significant portion of this increase is directly attributable to the share exchange with a significant amount of this expense resulting from increased fees due to compliance with expanded SEC reporting and preparation for compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

Income Taxes
Income taxes were $892,000 and $2,401,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007. Because of net operating loss carryovers the Company did not become fully taxable until 2006. As a result, income tax expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 was $345,000 and $683,000, respectively.
Financial Condition
Balance Sheet Summary.
The Company’s total assets were $1,090,818,000 and $967,971,000 at September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively. Loans, net of allowance for loan losses, totaled $817,324,000 and $686,690,000 at September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively, and investment securities totaled $180,285,000 and $178,135,000, respectively. Restricted equity securities totaled $2,621,000 and $2,174,000 at September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively. Interest bearing deposits in financial institutions decreased to $2,495,000 at September 30, 2007 from $2,559,000 at December 31, 2006. These consist mostly of overnight deposits at the Federal Home Loan Bank.
Total liabilities were $983,105,000 and $865,031,000 at September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively, and stockholders’ equity was $107,713,000 and $102,940,000, respectively. A more detailed discussion of assets, liabilities and capital follows.

Loans, Continued
In the normal course of business the Company’s subsidiaries have made loans at prevailing interest rates and terms to its executive officers, directors and their affiliates aggregating $18.3 million. As of September 30, 2007 none of these loans were restructured, nor were any related party loans charged off during the past three years nor did they involve more than the normal risk of collectibility or present other unfavorable features.
The Company follows the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 114, “Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan” and SFAS No. 118, “Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan — Income Recognition and Disclosures”. These pronouncements apply to impaired loans except for large groups of smaller-balance homogeneous loans that are collectively evaluated for impairment including credit card, residential mortgage, and installment loans.
A loan is impaired when it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal and interest due under the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Impaired loans are measured at the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, at the loan’s observable market price, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. If the measure of the impaired loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan, the Company shall recognize an impairment by creating a valuation allowance with a corresponding charge to the provision for loan losses or by adjusting an existing valuation allowance for the impaired loan with a corresponding charge or credit to the provision for loan losses.
The Company’s first mortgage single family residential and consumer loans which total approximately $143,643,000 and $23,781,000, respectively at September 30, 2007, are divided into various groups of smaller-balance homogeneous loans that are collectively evaluated for impairment and thus are not subject to the provisions of SFAS Nos. 114 and 118. Substantially all other loans of the Company are evaluated for impairment under the provisions of SFAS Nos. 114 and 118.
The Company considers all loans subject to the provisions of SFAS Nos. 114 and 118 that are on nonaccrual status to be impaired. Loans are placed on nonaccrual status when doubt as to timely collection of principal or interest exists, or when principal or interest is past due 90 days or more unless such loans are well-secured and in the process of collection. Delays or shortfalls in loan payments are evaluated with various other factors to determine if a loan is impaired. Generally, delinquencies under 90 days are considered insignificant unless certain other factors are present which indicate impairment is probable. The decision to place a loan on nonaccrual status is also based on Management’s subjective evaluation of the borrower’s financial condition, collateral, liquidation value, and other factors that affect the borrower’s ability to pay.

Item 2.Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Result of Operations, Continued
Financial Condition, Continued
Loans, Continued
Generally, at the time a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, all interest accrued on the loan in the current fiscal year is reversed from income, and all interest accrued and uncollected from the prior year is charged off against the allowance for loan losses. Thereafter, interest on nonaccrual loans is recognized as interest income only to the extent that cash is received and future collection of principal is not believed to be in doubt. If the collectibility of outstanding principal is doubtful, such interest received is applied as a reduction of principal. A nonaccrual loan may be restored to accruing status when principal and interest are no longer past due and unpaid and future collection of principal and interest on a timely basis is not believed to be in doubt. At September 30, 2007 the Company had $3,354,000 of loans on nonaccrual status and $1,977,000 of loans on non-accrual status as of December 31, 2006. The increase in non-accrual loans is the primary result of three loans that are 75% guaranteed by the Small Business Administration. Liquidation plans are in progress and specific reserves have been allocated. We do not anticipate a substantial loss after liquidation of the collateral.
Generally the Company also classifies as impaired any loans the terms of which have been modified in a troubled debt restructuring. Interest is accrued on such loans that continue to meet the modified terms of their loan agreements. At September 30, 2007 and 2006, the Company had no loans that have had the terms modified in a troubled debt restructuring.
The Company’s charge-off policy for impaired loans is similar to its charge-off policy for all loans in that loans are charged-off in the month when they are considered uncollectible.
As of September 30, 2007, the Company had impaired loans totaling $17,005,000. The amount of specific reserve assigned to these loans is $2,161,000. The total amount of interest recognized during the period on impaired loans approximated $1,194,000 and the average recorded investment for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 was $9,271,000. At December 31, 2006, impaired loans totaled $3,096,000 and had a specific allowance for loan losses of $359,000 allocated. The impaired loans are generally commercial loans and meet the above mentioned criteria for impaired loans. This increase in impaired loans is the primary result of seven relationships. Repayment and/or liquidation plans are in place. We do not anticipate any significant loss and each impaired loan has been specifically allocated to a portion of our loan loss reserve.
Non-performing loans, which include non-accrual loans and loans 90 days past due, at September 30, 2007, totaled $4,291,000. There were $2,066,000 of non-performing loans at December 31, 2006.

The outstanding balance of our internally graded loans increased by approximately $12.7 million from a level of $10.0 million at December 31, 2006 to a level of $22.7 million at September 30, 2007. This increase has been discussed previously in the impaired loans section.
The collateral values at September 30, 2007, based on estimates received by management, securing these loans total approximately $27,759,000 ($21,915,000 related to real estate loans and $5,844,000 related to commercial and other non-real estate loans). Such loans are listed as classified when information obtained about possible credit problems of the borrower has prompted management to question the ability of the borrower to comply with the repayment terms of the loan agreement. The loan classifications do not represent or result from trends or uncertainties that management expects will materially and adversely impact future operating results, liquidity or capital resources.

The Company has targeted commercial business lending, commercial and residential real estate lending and consumer lending as potential growth areas. The Company seeks to build a loan portfolio which is capable to adjusting to swings in the interest rate market, and it is the Company’s policy to maintain a diverse loan portfolio not dependent on any particular market or industrial segment.

Securities
Securities totaled $180,285,000 and $178,135,000 at September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively, and are a primary component of the Company’s earning assets. Restricted equity securities, which consists primarily of investments in FHLB stock, totaled $2,621,000 and $2,174,000 at September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively. The Company has adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115 (SFAS No. 115), “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities”. Under the provisions of the Statement, securities are to be classified in three categories and accounted for as follows:
| • | | Debt securities for which the enterprise has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as held-to-maturity securities and reported at amortized costs. |
|
| • | | Debt and equity securities that are bought and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term are classified as trading securities and reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses included in earnings. |
|
| • | | Debt and equity securities not classified as either held-to-maturity securities or trading securities are classified as available-for-sale securities and reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported in a separate component of stockholders’ equity. |
The Company’s classification of securities as of September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006 are as follows:

There were no securities classified as trading during 2007 or 2006.
Deposits
Deposits, which in the future are expected to be the principal source of funds for the Company, totaled $903,948,000 and $823,755,000 at September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively. The Company has targeted local consumers, professionals, local governments and commercial businesses as its central clientele; therefore, deposit instruments in the form of demand deposits, savings accounts, money market demand accounts, certificates of deposits and individual retirement accounts are offered to customers.
Management believes the Middle Tennessee area is a growing economic market offering growth opportunities for the Company; however, the Company competes with several of the larger bank holding companies that have bank offices in this area; and therefore, no assurances of market growth can be given. However, even though the Company’s are in a very competitive market, management currently believes that it is possible to increase the Company’s deposit and asset size. Management believes that its position as a locally oriented financial institution that offers personalized service will contribute significantly to quality loan and deposit growth and, ultimately, to overall profitability. However, no assurance of market growth can be given.
Liquidity and Asset Management
The Company’s management seeks to maximize net interest income by managing the Company’s assets and liabilities within appropriate constraints on capital, liquidity and interest rate risk. Liquidity is the ability to maintain sufficient cash levels necessary to fund operations, meet the requirements of depositors and borrowers and fund attractive investment opportunities. The Company’s primary source of liquidity is expected to be a stable core deposit base. In addition, short-term investments, loan payments and investment security maturities provide a secondary source.

Liquidity and Asset Management, Continued
The Company maintains a formal asset and liability management process to quantify, monitor and control interest rate risk and to assist management in maintaining stability in the net interest margin under varying interest rate environments. The Company accomplishes this process through the development and implementation of lending, funding and pricing strategies designed to maximize net interest income under varying interest rate environments subject to specific liquidity and interest rate risk guidelines.
Analysis of rate sensitivity and rate gap analysis are the primary tools used to assess the direction and magnitude of changes in net interest income resulting from changes in interest rates. Included in the analysis are cash flows and maturities of financial instruments held for purposes other than trading, changes in market conditions, loan volumes and pricing and deposit volume and mix. These assumptions are inherently uncertain, and, as a result, net interest income cannot be precisely estimated nor can the impact of higher or lower interest rates on net interest income be precisely predicted. Actual results will differ due to timing, magnitude and frequency of interest rate changes and changes in market conditions and managements strategies, among other factors.
The Company’s securities portfolio consists of earning assets that provide interest income. Securities classified as available-for-sale include securities intended to be used as part of the Company’s asset/liability strategy and/or securities that may be sold in response to changes in interest rate, prepayment risk, the need or desire to increase capital and similar economic factors. Securities totaling approximately $21.8 million mature or will be subject to rate adjustments within the next twelve months.
A secondary source of liquidity is the Company’s loan portfolio. At September 30, 2007, loans of approximately $463.6 million either will become due or will be subject to rate adjustments within twelve months from the respective date.
As for liabilities, certificates of deposit of $100,000 or greater of approximately $298.6 million will become due during the next twelve months. Management anticipates that there will be no significant reductions from withdrawal accounts such as negotiable order of withdrawal accounts, money market demand accounts, demand deposit and regular savings accounts in the future.

Capital Position and Dividends
At September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, total stockholders’ equity was $107,713,000 and $102,940,000 or 9.9% and 10.6%, respectively, of total assets.
The Company’s principal regulators have established minimum risk-based capital requirements and leverage capital requirements for the Company. These guidelines classify capital into two categories of Tier I and Total risk-based capital. Total risk-based capital consists of Tier I (or core) capital (essentially common equity less intangible assets) and Tier II capital (essentially qualifying long-term debt, of which the Company has none, and a part of the allowance for loan losses). In determining risk-based capital requirements, assets are assigned risk-weights of 0% to 100%, depending on regulatory assigned levels of credit risk associated with such assets. The risk-based capital guidelines require the Company to have a Total risk-based capital ratio of 8.0% and a Tier I risk-based capital ratio of 4.0%. At September 30, 2007, the Company’s Total risk-based capital ratio was 10.46% and its Tier I risk-based capital ratio was 9.51%. At December 31, 2006, the Company’s total risk-based capital ratio was 11.12% and its Tier I risk-based capital ratio was 10.15%. The required Tier I leverage capital ratio (Tier I capital to average assets for the most recent quarter) for the Company is 4%. At September 30, 2007, the Company had a leverage ratio of 8.29%. At December 31, 2006 the Company had a leverage ratio of 8.80%.
The payment of dividends by the Company is subject to the Tennessee Business Corporation Act. The Act provides that the Company may not make distributions to shareholders or declare dividends at any time that the Company is insolvent or if such action would render the Company insolvent. The Company is primarily dependent on dividends from its two subsidiary banks for its own funding, including funds that could be utilized to pay dividends. Under Tennessee law, the ability of our two subsidiary banks to pay dividends is limited. First, no Tennessee charter bank may pay dividends in any calendar year that exceeds the total of its net income of that year combined with its retained net income of the preceding two years without the approval of the TDFI. Thereafter, 10% of net profits must be transferred to capital surplus prior to payment of dividends until capital surplus equals capital stock. The subsidiary banks and the Company are also subject to the minimum capital requirements of the FDIC and the Federal Reserve Board, respectively, which impact the banks’ and the Company’s ability to pay dividends. If the Company fails to meet these standards, it may not be able to pay dividends or to accept additional deposits because of regulatory requirements. Presently, our dividend policy remains as announced in earlier filings, which is that we expect for the foreseeable future to retain most if not all of our earnings to reinvest in operations and to support anticipated growth. Dividends, if any, will be subject to the discretion of the board and to the above-described legal limitations, and may be declared and paid as determined by the board subject to legal, regulatory and prudential considerations.

The Company is subject to numerous federal and state laws, rules and regulations, and compliance with these legal requirements is mandatory. One significant and developing area of law involves Homeland Security and the Bank Secrecy Act. The Company currently believes that its systems are adequate to meet its compliance needs with respect to these and other regulations. However, compliance with the Bank Secrecy Act may prove expensive to the Company in the near-term and in the long-term. Current regulatory statements indicate that the cost of non-compliance, even inadvertent non-compliance, can be harsh. Management cannot at this time quantify the costs of compliance or the expense of inadvertent non-compliance.
There is no established trading market for the Company’s stock. During the nine months ended September 30, 2007, the Company issued 46,589 shares of its voting common stock for $272,000 in connection with the exercise of options and 26,000 restricted shares vested and were issued effective September 1, 2007. Privately negotiated trades may involve the Company, its directors and officials and, accordingly, may not be reliable indicators of value. During the nine months ended September 30, 2007 the market for our stock was very thin as only 64,087 shares, representing less than 1% of total outstanding shares, were traded.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
At September 30, 2007 the Company had unfunded loan commitments outstanding of $215.9 million and outstanding standby letters of credit of $28.0 million. Because these commitments generally have fixed expiration dates and many will expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment level does not necessarily represent future cash requirements. If needed to fund these outstanding commitments, the Company has the ability to liquidate Federal funds sold or securities available-for-sale or on a short-term basis to borrow and purchase Federal funds from other financial institutions. Additionally, the Company could sell participations in these or other loans to correspondent banks. As mentioned above, the Company has been able to fund its ongoing liquidity needs through its stable core deposit base, loan payments, its investment security maturities and short-term borrowings.
The Company is currently leasing five branch locations and its operations center. Minimum lease payments pursuant to these leases are as follows:

Impact of Inflation
The primary impact which inflation has on the results of the Company’s operations, is evidenced by its effects on interest rates. Interest rates tend to reflect, in part, the financial market’s expectations of the level of inflation, and, therefore, will generally rise or fall as the level of expected inflation fluctuates. To the extent interest rates paid on deposits and other sources of funds rise or fall at a faster rate than the interest income earned on funds, loans or investments, net interest income will vary. Inflation also affects non-interest expenses as goods and services are purchased, although this has not had a significant effect on net earnings in recent years. If the inflation rate stays flat or increases slightly, the effect on profits is not expected to be significant.
Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
The Company’s primary component of market risk is interest rate volatility. Fluctuations in interest rates will ultimately impact both the level of income and expense recorded on a large portion of the Company’s assets and liabilities, and the market value of all interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, other than those which possess a short term to maturity such as Federal funds sold or purchased and loans, securities and deposits as discussed in Item 2. Based upon the nature of the Company’s operations, the Company is not subject to foreign currency exchange or commodity price risk.
Interest rate risk (sensitivity) management focuses on the earnings risk associated with changing interest rates. Management seeks to maintain profitability in both immediate and long term earnings through funds management/interest rate risk management. The Company’s rate sensitivity position has an important impact on earnings. Senior management of the Company meets periodically to analyze the rate sensitivity position. These meetings focus on the spread between the cost of funds and interest yields generated primarily through loans and investments.
There have been no material changes in reported market risks during the nine months ended September 30, 2007. Please refer to Item 2 of Part I of this Report of additional information related to market and other risks.
