NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

1.	In the opinion of management of the Registrant, the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring items) necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position of the Registrant as of September 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001, and results of operations for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2002 and 2001, and the cash flows for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2002 and 2001.
2.	The results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
3.	The accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes included therein, for the fiscal year end 2001, included in the Registrant’s 2001 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
4.	Management determines the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses based on an evaluation of the loan portfolio, recent loss experience, historical performance, current economic conditions, current analyses of asset quality and other pertinent factors. Non-performing loans are defined as all loans which are accounted for as non-accrual; loans 90 days or more past due and still accruing interest; or loans which have been renegotiated due to the borrowers’ inability to comply with the original terms. As of September 30, 2002, non-performing loans totaled $154,000 or .15% of total loans. This represents a decrease of $149,000 from the $303,000 balance at December 31, 2001.

Note 6. Stock Option Plan

6. Options to buy common stock are granted to officers and other key employees under a Stock Option Plan which provides for the issuance of up to 40,000 shares of common stock. The plan provides for stock options to be granted at prices that approximate the fair value of the stock at the respective dates of grant. The vesting of stock options does not start until two years from the date of the grant. After two years, the options will vest evenly over a three year period. The plan terminates on May 20, 2003. All shares and per share amounts have been restated for stock splits.

Note 6. Stock Option Plan (continued)

A summary of activity in the plan is as follows:

										Weighted
							Weighted		Average Fair

Exercised		—			(1,000	)		18.00
Balance September 30, 2002		9,893			25,007		$	33.63

For the options outstanding September 30, 2002, the range of exercise prices was $12.75 to $41.50 per share with a weighted average remaining contractual term of 5.10 years. At September 30, 2002, 13,028 were exercisable at a weighted average price of $28.61 per share. Had compensation cost for stock options been measured using SFAS No. 123, net income and earnings per share would have been the pro forma amounts indicated.

Item 2. Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations

The following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations provides additional information to assess the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Registrant and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Capital Directions, Inc. is a one-bank holding company, which commenced operations on July 22, 1988. This was facilitated by the acquisition of 100% of the outstanding shares of Mason State Bank in an exchange of common stock. Mason State Mortgage Company, LLC was formed July 16, 2002. This was facilitated by a 99% ownership provided by Mason State Bank and

Item 2. Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations (continued)

1% ownership provided by Capital Directions, Inc. The Company and its subsidiaries provide banking and financial services in the banking industry. Substantially all revenue and services are derived from banking products and services. The Bank’s primary services include accepting retail deposits and making residential, consumer and commercial loans.

The corporation is not aware of any market or institutional trends, events or circumstances that will have or are reasonably likely to have a material effect on liquidity, capital resources, or results of operations except as discussed herein.

Financial Condition(In thousands)

Assets totaled $127,958 at September 30, 2002. The 9.11% increase of $10,681 from $117,277 at December 31, 2001 resulted primarily from an increase of $1,189 in cash and non interest bearing deposits, an increase of $1,397 in Federal funds sold, an increase of $702 in short term interest bearing deposits, a $345 decrease in investment securities, and an increase of $7,069 in total loans.

Cash and cash equivalents have increased $3,288 or 47.15% in the nine month period from December 31, 2001 to September 30, 2002. This is a result of an increase in all categories of cash and cash equivalents due to increased deposit balances.

Total outstanding loans have increased $7,069 during the first nine months of 2002. This is an increase of 7.61% from December 31, 2001. This increase has been concentrated in the residential real estate mortgage portfolio, while commercial and installment loans have decreased slightly. Currently, $531 in 1-4 family residential loans reside in the held-for-sale category and as of September 30, 2002, all loans had been committed for sale. During the first three quarters of 2002, the Company decided to sell certain loans into the secondary market as part of the asset and liability strategy to minimize risk associated with the recent reduction in interest rates. Management will closely monitor this strategy in the near term.

The allowance for loan losses increased $2 or .19% during the nine month period ending September 30, 2002. At September 30, 2002 the allowance as a percent of outstanding loans was 1.05% compared to 1.13% at December 31, 2001. Management continues to maintain the allowance for loan losses at a level considered appropriate to absorb losses inherent in the portfolio.

Total deposits as of September 30, 2002 compared to year-end 2001 increased by $6,130 or 8.64%. The increase was recognized in both the non-interest and interest bearing deposits, partially due to additional public fund monies that were deposited. In addition, deposits from other financial institutions have also been obtained through a new deposit gathering program undertaken in the third quarter.

Total shareholders’ equity increased $361 or 2.62% in the first nine months of 2002. Net income of $1,391 increased shareholders’ equity, while dividends declared, repurchase of common stock of $263 and $93 net unrealized loss on available for sale securities reduced shareholders’ equity. Book value per share was $23.93 at September 30, 2002 compared to $23.09 at December 31, 2001.

Results of Operations(In thousands)

For the third quarter of 2002, net income was $497, basic earnings per share was $.84, and diluted earnings per share was $.84, compared to $437, $.73, and $.73 for the same period in 2001. During the nine-month period ending September 30, 2002, net income totaled $1,391, basic earnings per share was $2.35, and diluted earnings per share was $2.33, compared to $1,286, $2.15 and $2.13 for the same period in 2001. Average earning assets increased by 7.32% or $7,835 from September 30, 2001

Item 2. Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations (continued)

to September 30, 2002. The average yield on earnings assets decreased to 6.99% for the nine month period ended September 30, 2002 from 7.66% for the comparable time period in 2001. Average costs for rate related liabilities decreased to 3.58% at September 30, 2002 from 4.33% at September 30, 2001. Net interest margin decreased to 4.04% for the first nine months of 2002 compared to 4.10% in the same period of 2001. This is a result of the continued falling rate environment. The Company is experiencing a declining margin related primarily to the change in the structure of earning assets. As commercial loan demand declined during 2001 and 2002, those funds were used to increase the securities portfolio and residential mortgage portfolios, which tend to be at lower yields as compared to commercial loans. A portion of security maturities in 2002 were also used to fund residential loan growth. The following table illustrates the change in net interest margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 and September 30, 2001.

(1) Earning assets are presented on a fully taxable equivalent basis, using a 34% tax rate, and average yields/rates are annualized.

The two variables that have the most significant effect on the change in the net interest income are volume and rate. The change in interest due to both volume and rate has been allocated to volume and rate changes in proportion to the relationship of the absolute dollar amounts of the change in each. As illustrated in the following table, the Corporation had an increase in net interest income due primarily to changes due to volume, while interest rate changes among assets were greater than changes among liabilities.

Earning assets are presented on a fully taxable equivalent basis.

The provision for loan losses was $0 during the third quarter of 2002, unchanged from the same period of 2001. For the nine months ended September 30, the provision was $0 in 2002 compared to $0 in 2001. This is consistent with the decline in non-performing loans.

Non-interest income increased $67 or 34.90% during the third quarter of 2002 when compared to the third quarter of 2001. This is primarily attributable to an increase in the recognition of mortgage servicing rights on loans sold into the secondary market, an increase in the gain recognized on the sale of mortgage loans which was partially offset by a decrease in service charge income on deposit accounts, commissions earned on the sale of investments to customers and lower ATM fee income. For the nine months ended September 30, non-interest income has increased $54 or 8.87% when compared to the similar period in 2001. This is a result of the same factors affecting the third quarter decrease.

Non-interest expense increased $27 or 4.29% when comparing the third quarter of 2002 to 2001. Most of this increase is a result of increased personnel costs for salaries and employee benefits as some vacant positions have been replaced. This is partially offset by a decrease in premises and equipment costs. For the nine months ended September 30, 2002 non-interest expense increased $94 or 4.80% compared to the same period in 2001. Salaries and benefits increased $84 or 7.71% as some vacant positions have been filled. Increases were also realized in legal expense, other real estate expense and consulting services.

The federal income tax provision for the third quarter of 2002 was $228, up $32 for the same period in 2001. Year-to-date the income tax provision has increased by $54 or 9.44%. This increase reflects a higher taxable income for 2002. The effective tax rate was 31% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002 and 2001. The effective tax rates are lower than the 34% statutory rate due to non-taxable income on loans and investments.

Item 2. Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations (continued)

Liquidity and interest rate risk(In thousands)

The primary objective of asset/liability management is to assure the maintenance of adequate liquidity and maximize net interest income by maintaining appropriate maturities and balances between interest sensitive earning assets and interest bearing liabilities. Liquidity management ensures sufficient funds are maintained to meet the cash withdrawal requirements of depositors and the credit demand of borrowers.

Sources of liquidity include federal funds sold, investment security maturities and principal payments. A net average balance of $1,644 in federal funds sold was maintained during the third quarter of 2002. As a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank system, the Bank has access to an alternate funding source, lower cost for credit services, and an additional tool to manage interest rate risk. During the first nine months of 2002, the Bank used this source of funding to offset security purchases to be used as collateral for public deposits. Other sources of liquidity include internally generated cash flow, repayments and maturities of loans, borrowing and normal deposit growth. The primary source of funds for the parent company is the upstream of dividends from the Bank. Management believes these sources of liquidity are sufficient for the Bank and parent company to continue current business plans.

At September 30, 2002 the securities available for sale were valued at $11,455. It is not anticipated that management will use these funds due to the optional sources that may be available.

Interest rate sensitivity management seeks to maximize net interest margin through periods of changing interest rates. The Bank develops strategies to assure desired levels of interest sensitive assets and interest bearing liabilities mature or reprice within selected time frames.

Strategies include the use of variable rate loan products in addition to managing deposit accounts and maturities in the investment portfolio. The following table, using recommended regulatory standards, reflects the “rate sensitive position” or the difference between loans and investments, and liabilities that mature or reprice within the next year and beyond. The financial industry has generally referred to this difference as “GAP” and its handling as “GAP Management”. Throughout the third quarter of 2002, the results of the GAP analysis were within the Bank’s policy guidelines. At September 30, 2002, the percentage of rate sensitive assets to rate sensitive liabilities within the one-year time horizon was 57%.

The following table shows the Corporation’s GAP position as of September 30, 2002. The Corporation has a liability sensitive position of approximately $27,748 within the one-year time horizon, which indicates higher net interest income may be earned if rates decrease during the period. Due to the limitations of GAP analysis, modeling is also used to enhance measurement and control.

Capital Resources

The Corporation’s capital adequacy is reviewed regularly to ensure that sufficient capital is available to meet current and future funding needs and comply with regulatory requirements. Shareholders’ equity, excluding the net unrealized gain on securities available for sale, increased $454 or 7% to

13

Item 2. Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations (continued)

$13,943 for the first nine months of 2002. This represents 10.90% of total assets. At September 30, 2001, the similar ratio of shareholders’ equity to total assets was 11.41%. Dividends declared increased by 10.19% to $692 in 2002 compared to $628 in 2001.

Regulators established “risk-based” capital guidelines that became effective December 31, 1990. Under the guidelines, minimum capital levels are established for risk based and total assets based on perceived risk in asset categories and certain off-balance sheet items, such as loan commitments and standby letters of credit. On September 30, 2002, the Bank has a “risk-based” total capital to asset ratio of 19.09%. The ratio exceeds the requirements established by regulatory agencies as shown below.

(Dollars in thousands)						Minimum Required
September 30, 2002						For Capital					Under Prompt Corrective
						Adequacy Purposes					Action Regulations
	Actual
	Amount		Ratio			Amount		Ratio			Amount		Ratio
Total Capital (to risk weighted assets)	$	14,832		19.09	%	$	6,215		8.00	%	$	7,769		10.00	%
Tier 1 capital (to risk weighted assets)		13,860		17.84			3,108		4.00			4,661		6.00
Tier 1 capital (to average assets)		13,860		11.22			4,943		4.00			6,179		5.00

Bank management does not perceive that future rate changes or inflation will have a material impact on capital adequacy. It is the opinion of management that capital and shareholders’ equity is adequate and will continue to be so throughout 2002.
