CCB Financial Corporation and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements Six Months Ended June 30, 1997 and 1996 (Unaudited) (1) Consolidation and Presentation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts and results of operations of CCB Financial Corporation (the "Corporation") and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Central Carolina Bank and Trust Company ("CCB") and Central Carolina Bank - Georgia. The consolidated financial statements also include the accounts and results of operations of CCB Investment and Insurance Service Corporation, CCBDE, Inc. and Southland Associates, Inc., wholly-owned subsidiaries of CCB. All significant intercompany accounts are eliminated in consolidation. The Corporation adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 125, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities" ("SFAS No. 125") on January 1, 1997. The implementation of SFAS No. 125 did not have a material impact on the accompanying consolidated financial statements. In addition to the restatement of prior year financial data for the merger discussed in Note 2, certain amounts for prior years have been reclassified to conform to the 1997 presentation. These reclassifications have no effect on net income or shareholders' equity as previously reported. (2) Merger and Acquisition On January 31, 1997, the Corporation merged with Salem Trust Bank ("Salem Trust"), a $165 million bank based in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. The merger was accounted for as a pooling-of interests and was effected through a tax-free exchange of stock. Each share of Salem Trust common stock outstanding on the merger date was converted into .36 shares of the Corporation's common stock. Consequently, the Corporation issued approximately 680,000 shares of the Corporation's common stock and cash in lieu of fractional shares for all of the outstanding shares of Salem Trust. In accordance with the accounting for poolings-of-interest, the financial statements of the Corporation have been restated to reflect the merger as if it had been effective as of the earliest period presented. Separate results of operations of the combining entities are as follows (in thousands): Year Ended December 31, 1996 1995 Net interest income after provision for loan and lease losses: CCB Financial Corporation $ 202,402 194,596 Salem Trust Bank 6,173 4,221 $ 208,575 198,817 Net income: CCB Financial Corporation $ 70,315 57,860 Salem Trust Bank 2,020 1,044 $ 72,335 58,904 CCB Financial Corporation and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (3) Loans and Lease Financing A summary of loans and lease financing at June 30, 1997 and 1996 follows (in thousands): 1997 1996 Commercial, financial and agricultural $ 516,589 386,515 Real estate-construction 650,963 541,217 Real estate-mortgage 2,188,205 2,122,801 Instalment loans to individuals 401,655 346,387 Credit card receivables 186,487 184,796 Lease financing 40,183 36,232 Gross loans and lease financing 3,984,082 3,617,948 Less unearned income 5,002 4,734 Total loans and lease financing $ 3,979,080 3,613,214 Loans held for sale totaled $14,951,000 and $8,759,000 at June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively, and are reported at the lower of cost or market. At June 30, 1997, impaired loans amounted to $8,430,000 compared to $15,704,000 at June 30, 1996.

The fair value of mortgage servicing rights was $2,344,000 and $2,371,000 at June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively. Additionally, there is value associated with servicing originated prior to January 1, 1996 for which the carrying value is zero in accordance with the accounting standards in effect at the time. No valuation allowance for capitalized MSRs was required at June 30, 1997 or 1996. (7) Contingencies Certain legal claims have arisen in the normal course of business, which, in the opinion of management and counsel, will have no material adverse effect on the financial position of the Corporation or its subsidiaries. (8) Management Opinion The financial statements in this report are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (none of which were other than normal accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the periods presented have been included. (9) Subsequent Event On August 1, 1997, the Corporation consummated the merger with American Federal Bank, FSB ("American Federal"), headquartered in Greenville, South Carolina. American Federal, which is being operated as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation, had 40 banking offices located in northwest South Carolina and assets of $1.3 billion as of June 30, 1997. The merger was accounted for as a pooling-of- interests and accordingly, the Corporation's future historical consolidated financial statements will be restated to reflect the accounts and results of operations of American Federal as if the merger had been effective as of the earliest period presented. In connection with the merger, .445 shares of the Corporation's common stock were issued in exchange for each share of American Federal's outstanding stock, or approximately 4.9 million shares.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations The purpose of this discussion and analysis is to aid in the understanding and evaluation of financial conditions and changes therein and results of operations of CCB Financial Corporation (the "Corporation") and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Central Carolina Bank and Trust Company ("CCB") and Central Carolina Bank-Georgia ("CCB- Ga.") (collectively "the Banks"), and CCB's wholly-owned subsidiaries, CCB Investment and Insurance Service Corporation ("CCBI"), CCBDE, Inc. and Southland Associates, Inc. for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996. This discussion and analysis is intended to complement the unaudited financial statements and footnotes and the supplemental financial data appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-Q, and should be read in conjunction therewith. On January 31, 1997, the Corporation effected a merger with Salem Trust Bank ("Salem Trust"), a $165 million bank headquartered in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. The merger was accounted for as a pooling-of-interests and was effected through a tax-free exchange of stock. Merger-related expense of $1.0 million (or $792,000 after-tax) was recorded at the date of merger. Results of Operations - Three Months Ended June 30, 1997 and 1996 Net income for the three months ended June 30, 1997 amounted to $21.1 million, an increase of $2.2 million from the same period in 1996. Net income per share was $1.33 in 1997, a $.13 increase from the 1996 period. Returns on average assets and average shareholders' equity in 1997 were 1.52% and 16.72%, respectively, compared to 1.47% and 16.60%, respectively, in the 1996 period. Average Balance Sheets and Net Interest Income Analyses on a taxable equivalent basis for each of the periods are included in Table 1. Interest-earning assets increased by $425.3 million or 8.7% in the 1997 period. During the second quarter, average loans increased at an annualized rate of 11.5% over the first quarter of 1997 with commercial loans growing by 16.3% and consumer loans showing 6.4% growth. In conjunction with the favorable shift in the mix of interest- earning assets towards higher-earning loans and investments, the overall yield on earning assets increased 20 basis points to 8.61% from 1996's 8.41%. The cost of interest-bearing funds increased by 7 basis points in the 1997 period to 4.62%. As a result, the interest rate spread and net interest margin increased by 13 and 18 basis points, respectively, to 3.99% and 4.79%. Increased volume of earning assets and the rate earned on those assets, to a lesser degree, were responsible for the $11.8 million increase in interest income earned in the second quarter of 1997. Increases in savings and time deposit volume was the primary cause of the $4.5 million increase in deposit expense for the second quarter of June 1997. Net interest income on a taxable equivalent basis increased by $7.3 million or 13.1% during the 1997 period. The provision for loan and lease losses for the second quarter of 1997 was $4.2 million compared to $3.1 million in 1996. Net 1997 second quarter loan and lease charge-offs amounted to $2.7 million or .28% (annualized) of average loans and lease financing compared to .22% (annualized) experienced in the second quarter of 1996. The increased charge-offs in 1997 was due primarily to a $350,000 commercial credit charge-off and charge-offs in the credit card portfolio as the net charge-off ratio, excluding credit cards, totaled .14% (annualized) for 1997 and .11% for 1996. The reserve for loan and lease losses to loans and lease financing outstanding was 1.30% at June 30, 1997 and 1996. Other income, excluding investment securities transactions, increased $976,000 in the second quarter of 1997 to $17.5 million. The increase was due to the $852,000 increase in service charges on deposit accounts and the $431,000 increase in merchant discount. The service charge increase resulted primarily from increased deposit volume and repricing of certain deposit services based upon the results of product profitability analyses. The increase in merchant discount is due in part to seasonal increases in credit card activity. In 1996, the Corporation realized non-recurring gains totaling $650,000 from the sale of four branch offices and a former banking office.

(2) The average loan and lease financing balances include non-accruing loans and lease financing. Loan fees of $1,979,000 and $2,443,000 for 1997 and 1996, respectively, are included in interest income. (3) The average balances for debt and equity securities exclude the effect of their mark-to-market adjustment, if any. (4) Net interest margin is computed by dividing net interest income by total earning assets. (5) Interest rate spread equals the earning asset yield minus the interest-bearing liability rate. Other expenses increased in the 1997 period by $4.2 million. The increase is largely explained by the increase in personnel expense which increased $3.0 million from 1996's level. The increase was due to general salary increases, a larger workforce due to alternative delivery initiatives and a higher level of incentives paid for performance-based compensation. Despite the increased personnel expense, a comparison of assets per employee shows continuing improvement from $2.61 million of assets per employee at June 30, 1996 to $2.69 million per employee at June 30, 1997. As a result of the aforementioned changes, net overhead (noninterest expense less noninterest income) as a percentage of average assets, excluding the impact of merger-related expense, increased to 1.78% for the three months ended June 30, 1997 from 1.69% for the same period in 1996. The increase was primarily due to the 9 basis point increase in personnel expense as a percentage of average assets. Despite the unfavorable increase in net overhead, the Corporation's efficiency ratio (noninterest expense as a percentage of taxable equivalent net interest income and other income), excluding the impact of merger-related expense, improved from 52.69% for the three months ended June 30, 1996 to 52.44% for the same period in 1997. The improvement in the efficiency ratio resulted primarily from the improved interest margin as previously discussed. The following schedule presents noninterest income and expense as a percentage of average assets for the three months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996. 1997 1996 Noninterest income 1.26 % 1.29 Personnel expense 1.69 1.60 Occupancy and equipment expense .40 .42 Other operating expense (1) .95 .96 Noninterest expense 3.04 2.98 Net overhead 1.78 % 1.69 _______________________________ (1) Excludes merger-related expense of $1.0 million in 1997. The effective income tax rate was 34.3% in 1997 compared to 35.3% in the same period of 1996. Results of Operations - Six Months Ended June 30, 1997 and 1996 Net income for the six months ended June 30, 1997 amounted to $41.2 million, an increase of $4.1 million from the same period in 1996. Net income per share was $2.61 in 1997, a $.25 per share or 10.6% increase from the 1996 period. Returns on average assets and average shareholders' equity in 1997 were 1.50% and 16.56%, respectively, compared to 1.45% and 16.42%, respectively, in the 1996 period. Salem Trust merger-related expense incurred during the first quarter of 1997 totaled $792,000 after-tax or $.05 per share. Excluding the impact of the merger-related expense, returns on average assets and average equity for the six months ended June 30, 1997 would have been 1.53% and 16.88%, respectively. Average Balance Sheets and Net Interest Income Analyses on a taxable equivalent basis for each of the periods are included in Table 2. Interest-earning assets increased by $438.1 million or 9.1% in the 1997 period. Despite a 7 basis point drop in the yield on loans, increased yields on investments and other earning assets and the mix of earning assets resulted in a 6 basis point increase in the yield on earning assets. Higher rates paid on money market accounts, retail certificates of deposit and jumbo certificates of deposit resulted in a 6 basis point increase in the rates paid on interest-bearing deposits. The increases in yield on interest-earnings assets and rates paid on interest-bearing deposits resulted in a flat interest rate spread compared to 1996. Due to an increased free liability contribution, the net interest margin rose 6 basis points to 4.68% compared to 1996's 4.62%.

(2) The average loan and lease financing balances include non-accruing loans and lease financing. Loan fees of $4,172,000 and $4,880,000 for 1997 and 1996, respectively, are included in interest income. (3) The average balances for debt and equity securities exclude the effect of their mark-to-market adjustment, if any. (4) Net interest margin is computed by dividing net interest income by total earning assets. (5) Interest rate spread equals the earning asset yield minus the interest-bearing liability rate. The provision for loan and lease losses for the first six months of 1997 was $6.0 million compared to $5.3 million in 1996. The higher provision was recorded in 1997 due to the loan growth experienced in the first six months of 1997 and higher levels of charge-offs. Net charge-offs as a percentage of average loans were .25% in 1997 and .19% in 1996 (annualized). Excluding credit card net charge-offs, the ratios drop to .09% and .08% (annualized), respectively. Other income, excluding investment securities transactions, increased $3.4 million in the first six months of 1997 to $35.3 million. The increase was due primarily to the $1.5 million increase in service charges on deposit accounts and the $1.4 million increase in income from mortgage banking operations. The deposit service charge increase resulted primarily from increased deposit volume. The increase in mortgage banking income resulted from gains on sales of mortgage loans and mortgage servicing. Other increases over 1996's levels included brokerage sales and insurance commissions ($912,000) and merchant discount ($728,000). As previously mentioned, $650,000 of one-time gains on disposals of branches and former banking offices experienced in 1996 were not present in 1997. Other expenses, excluding the previously discussed non-recurring merger-related expense of $1.0 million, increased in the 1997 period by $6.5 million. The increase is primarily explained by the increase in personnel expense which increased $5.2 million from 1996's level. As discussed previously, the increase was due to general salary increases, a larger workforce due to alternative delivery initiatives and more emphasis on incentive-based compensation. Additional smaller increases were recognized for telecommunications, postage and freight and general insurance expenses. As a result of the aforementioned changes, net overhead as a percentage of average assets, excluding the impact of merger-related expense, decreased to 1.74% for the six months ended June 30, 1997 from 1.76% for the same period in 1996. The Corporation's efficiency ratio, excluding the impact of merger-related expense, improved from 53.75% for the six months ended June 30, 1996 to 52.68% for the same period in 1997. The improvement in both of these ratios, both of which were calculated excluding the impact of merger-related expense, indicates that the Corporation's revenues are increasing faster than its expenses. The following schedule presents noninterest income and expense as a percentage of average assets for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996. 1997 1996 Noninterest income 1.29 % 1.25 Personnel expense 1.70 1.63 Occupancy and equipment expense .40 .43 Other operating expense (1) .93 .95 Noninterest expense 3.03 3.01 Net overhead 1.74 % 1.76 _______________________________ (1) Excludes merger-related expense of $1.0 million in 1997. The effective income tax rates were 35.4% in 1997 and 34.9% in 1996. Non-deductible merger-related expense resulted in the higher effective tax rate experienced in the first six months of 1997. Financial Condition Total assets have increased $441 million since June 30, 1996 due solely to internal growth. The majority of the increase occurred in interest-earning assets. Average assets have increased from $5.1 billion for the six months ended June 30, 1996 to $5.5 billion for the six months ended June 30, 1997. At June 30, 1997, risk assets (consisting of nonaccrual loans and lease financing, foreclosed real estate, restructured loans and lease financing and accruing loans 90 days or more past due) amounted to approximately $15.4 million or .39% of outstanding loans and lease financing and foreclosed real estate. This compares to approximately $18.8 million or .52% at June 30, 1996. Decreases in foreclosed real estate and accruing loans over ninety days past due were responsible for the improved ratio. The reserve for loan and lease losses to risk assets was 3.34x at June 30, 1997 compared to 3.21x at December 31, 1996 and 2.50x at June 30, 1996. The Corporation's capital position has historically been strong as evidenced by the Corporation's ratio of average shareholders' equity to average total assets of 9.04% and 8.85% for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively. Increases in this ratio since June 30, 1996 are due primarily to the retention of earnings. Book value per share increased from $29.78 at June 30, 1996 to $33.13 at June 30, 1997, an 11.2% increase. The unrealized gains on investment securities available for sale, net of applicable taxes, decreased $2.3 million from December 31, 1996 in conjunction with declines in the financial markets to result in an unrealized gain at June 30, 1997 of $3.0 million. The Corporation has increased its annual cash dividends consistently over the past 33 years. On July 15, 1997, the Board of Directors of the Corporation declared a regular quarterly dividend of $.47 payable on October 1, 1997 to shareholders of record September 15, 1997. Bank holding companies are required to comply with the Federal Reserve Board's risk-based capital guidelines which require a minimum ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets of 8%. At least half of the total capital is required to be "Tier 1" capital, principally consisting of common shareholders' equity, noncumulative perpetual preferred stock, and a limited amount of cumulative perpetual preferred stock less certain goodwill items. The remainder, "Tier 2 capital", may consist of a limited amount of subordinated debt, certain hybrid capital instruments and other debt securities, perpetual preferred stock, and a limited amount of the general reserve for loan and lease losses. In addition to the risk-based capital guidelines, the Federal Reserve has adopted a minimum leverage capital ratio under which a bank holding company must maintain a minimum level of Tier 1 capital to average total consolidated assets of at least 3% in the case of a bank holding company which has the highest regulatory examination rating and is not contemplating significant growth or expansion. All other bank holding companies are expected to maintain a leverage capital ratio of at least 1% to 2% above the stated minimum. The Corporation and the Banks continue to maintain higher capital ratios than required under regulatory guidelines at June 30, 1997.

American Federal, which is being operated as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation, had 40 banking offices located in northwest South Carolina and assets of $1.3 billion as of June 30, 1997. American Federal's net income for the first six months of 1997 totaled $11.2 million compared to $8.8 million for the same period in 1996. The results for 1997 included a non-recurring gain of $1.4 million (after-tax) in connection with the disposition of a subsidiary. In accordance with the terms of the agreement, the Corporation issued .445 shares of its common stock in exchange for each share of American Federal in the tax-free exchange transaction or approximately 4.9 million shares. The acquisition has been accounted for as a pooling-of-interests. The Corporation's future financial statements will be restated to reflect the impact of the merger as if it had occurred at the beginning of the earliest period presented. The combined company will have $7 billion in assets and over 200 branch offices in a market area that spans 40 counties across the Carolinas. Accounting Issues In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share", which establishes standards for computing and presenting earnings per share. SFAS No. 128 simplifies the computation of earnings per share ("EPS") by replacing the presentation of "primary" earnings per share with a presentation of "basic" EPS. Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by weighted average common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS is computed similarly to "fully diluted" EPS under existing accounting rules. Dual presentation of basic and diluted EPS is required for complex capital structures. SFAS No. 128 is effective for financial statements issued for periods ending after December 15, 1997; earlier application is not permitted but restatement of prior years' EPS is required. Under the provisions of SFAS No. 128, basic earnings per share for the period ended June 30, 1997 would not have differed materially from those disclosed in the accompanying consolidated statements of income. In February 1997, the FASB also issued SFAS No. 129, "Disclosure of Information about Capital Structure". The Statement establishes standards for disclosing information about an entity's capital structure. The Statement is effective for the Corporation's financial statements as of September 30, 1998. The Corporation does not anticipate that the implementation of this Statement will have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income". SFAS No. 130 establishes standards for reporting presentation of comprehensive income and its components in a full set of general purpose financial statements. SFAS No. 130 does not address issues relating to recognition or measurement for comprehensive income and its components. The provisions of the Statement are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. Earlier application is permitted. If comparative financial statements are provided for earlier periods, those financial statements shall be reclassified to reflect application of the provisions of SFAS No. 130. Management does not expect that adoption of this pronouncement will have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements. Also during June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and related Information". This Statement requires that public business enterprises report certain information about operating segments in complete sets of financial statements and in condensed financial statements of interim periods. It also requires that public business enterprises report certain information about their products and services, the geographic areas in which they operate and their major customers. SFAS No. 131 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997 with earlier application encouraged. Management does not expect the adoption of this Statement to have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements. PART II. OTHER INFORMATION Item 6. Exhibits and Reports on Form 8-K (a).
