Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by Pacific Financial Corporation ("Pacific" or the "Company") in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2005, are not necessarily indicative of the results anticipated for the year ending December 31, 2005. Certain information and footnote disclosures included in the Company's consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2004, have been condensed or omitted from this report. Accordingly, these statements should be read with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's December 31, 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. All dollar amounts in tables, except per share information, are stated in thousands. NOTE 2. Investment Securities Investment securities consist principally of short and intermediate term debt instruments issued by the U.S. Treasury, other U.S. government agencies, state and local government units, and other corporations.

Equity Compensation Plans At March 31, 2005, the Company has a stock-based employee compensation plan. The Company accounts for the plan under recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations. No stock-based employee compensation cost is reflected in net income, as all options granted under this plan had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share had the Company applied the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, to stock-based employee compensation.

Acquisition On February 27, 2004, the Company completed the acquisition of BNW Bancorp, Inc. Each share of BNW Bancorp, Inc. was exchanged for 0.85 shares of the Company's common stock resulting in the issuance of 1,271,904 new shares. The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and, accordingly, the assets and liabilities of BNW Bancorp, Inc. were recorded at their respective fair value. Goodwill, the excess of the purchase price over the net fair value of the assets and liabilities acquired, was recorded at $11,282,000. As part of the accounting for the acquisition, the Company recorded a core deposit identifiable intangible asset of $993,000. The Company will follow the provisions of SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. SFAS No. 142 provides that goodwill is no longer amortized and the value of an identifiable intangible asset is amortized over its useful life, unless the asset is determined to have an indefinite life. The Company will review the recorded value of goodwill on an annual basis for impairment. The annual test for impairment will be a two step process. The first step will be to compare the current value of BNW Bancorp, Inc. with its fair value on the purchase date. If the current value exceeds the purchase value, goodwill will not be considered to be impaired and the test is completed. If the current value is less than purchase value, the Company will perform an analysis of goodwill and appropriate impairment losses will be taken at that time. -9- Although management has not performed a formal annual test for goodwill impairment, it is confident current fair value of BNW Bancorp, Inc exceeds the value as of the purchase date on February 27, 2004. The core deposit intangible recorded as part of the acquisition has an estimated life of seven years. Amortization expense was $36,000 and $106,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and the year ended December 31, 2004, respectively. Estimated amortization expense will be approximately $142,000 for the years ended December 31, 2005 through 2010 and $35,000 for the year ended December 31, 2011. ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS A Warning About Forward-Looking Information This document contains forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties. These statements are based on the beliefs and assumptions of our management, and on information currently available to them. Forward-looking statements include the information concerning our possible future results of operations set forth under "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and statements preceded by, followed by or that include the words "believes," "expects," "anticipates," "intends," "plans," "estimates" or similar expressions. Any forward-looking statements in this document are subject to risks relating to, among other things, the following: 1. competitive pressures among depository and other financial institutions may impede our ability to attract and retain borrowers, depositors and other customers, retain key employees, and/or maintain our interest margins and fee income; 2. changes in the interest rate environment may reduce margins or decrease the value of our securities; 3. our acquisition of BNW Bancorp may be dilutive to earnings per share if we do not realize expected cost savings or successfully operate the business of BNW Bancorp without significant customer or employee disruptions or losses; 4. our growth strategy, particularly if accomplished through acquisitions, may not be successful if we fail to accurately assess market opportunities, asset quality, anticipated cost savings, and transaction costs, or experience significant difficulty integrating acquired businesses or assets; 5. general economic or business conditions, either nationally or in the regions in which we do business, may be less favorable than expected, resulting in, among other things, a deterioration in credit quality or a reduced demand for credit; and 6. a lack of liquidity in the market for our common stock may make it difficult or impossible for you to liquidate your investment in our stock or lead to distortions in the market price of our stock. Our management believes the forward-looking statements in this report are reasonable; however, you should not place undue reliance on them. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of performance. They involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Many of the factors that will determine -10- our future results and share value are beyond our ability to control or predict. We undertake no obligation to update forward-looking statements. Net income. For the three months ended March 31, 2005, Pacific's net income was $1,289,000 compared to $1,374,000 for the same period in 2004. The most significant factor contributing to the decrease was the provision for credit losses of $300,000 for the period ended March 31, 2005 compared to $70,000 during the same period in 2004. Additionally, an increase in staffing, increased director expenses, data processing expense and professional fees increased non-interest expense for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 compared to the same period in 2004. Net interest income. Net interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2005 increased $1,169,000, or 29.5%, compared to the same periods in 2004. This is due primarily to increased interest income from loans and the effect of the BNW acquisition at the end of February 2004. Interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2005, increased $1,809,000, or 37.4%, compared to the same period in 2004. Average total loans outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 2005, and March 31, 2004, were $345,970,000, and $242,892,000, respectively, or an increase of 42.4% in 2005 over 2004. This is due primarily to the BNW acquisition that closed February 27, 2004. Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2005 increased $640,000, or 72.8%, compared to the same period in 2004. The increase is primarily attributable to increased deposit balances and increased expense of long term borrowings, as well as higher interest rates. Average interest-bearing deposit balances for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and March 31, 2004 were $370,892,000 and $234,855,000, respectively, representing an increase of 57.9% compared to last year's period. The increase is attributable primarily to the BNW acquisition that closed February 27, 2004. Average secured borrowings for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and March 31, 2004 were $3,655,000 and none, respectively, an increase of 100.0% over the 2004 period. The secured borrowings represent borrowing collateralized by participation interests in loans originated by the Company. These borrowings are repaid as payments are made on the underlying loans, bearing interest rates ranging from 5.75% to 8.5%. Average long term borrowings for the three months ended March 31, 2005 were $20,098,000 compared to $13,919,000 for the same period in 2004. Provision and allowance for credit losses. The allowance for credit losses reflects management's current estimate of the amount required to absorb losses on existing loans and commitments to extend credit. Loans deemed uncollectible are charged against and reduce the allowance. Periodically, a provision for credit losses is charged to current expense. This provision acts to replenish the allowance for credit losses and to maintain the allowance at a level that management deems adequate. There is no precise method of predicting specific credit losses or amounts that ultimately may be charged off on segments of the loan portfolio. The determination that a loan may become uncollectible, in whole or in part, is a matter of judgment. Similarly, the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses can be determined only on a judgmental basis, after full review, including (a) consideration of economic conditions and the effect on particular industries and specific borrowers; (b) a review of borrowers' financial data, together with industry data, the competitive situation, the borrowers' management capabilities and other factors; (c) a continuing evaluation of the loan portfolio, including monitoring by lending officers and staff credit personnel of all loans which are identified as being of less than acceptable quality; (d) an in-depth appraisal, on a monthly basis, of all loans judged to present a possibility of loss (if, as a result of such monthly appraisals, the loan is judged to be not fully collectible, the carrying value of the loan is reduced to that portion considered collectible); and (e) an evaluation of the underlying collateral for secured lending, including the use of independent appraisals of real estate properties -11- securing loans. A formal analysis of the adequacy of the allowance is conducted quarterly and is reviewed by the Board of Directors. Based on this analysis, management considers the allowance for credit losses to be adequate at March 31, 2005. Periodic provisions for credit losses are made to maintain the allowance for credit losses at an appropriate level. The provisions are based on an analysis of various factors including historical loss experience based on volumes and types of loans, volumes and trends in delinquencies and non-accrual loans, trends in portfolio volume, results of internal and independent external credit reviews, and anticipated economic conditions. For additional information, please see the discussion under the heading "Critical Accounting Policy" in Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004. During the three months ended March 31, 2005, a provision of $300,000 was provided for possible credit losses, compared to $70,000 for the same period in 2004. For the three months ended March 31, 2005, net recoveries were $8,000, compared to net charge-offs of $14,000 during the same period in 2004, and compared to $144,000 in net charge-offs during the twelve months ended December 31, 2004. At March 31, 2005, the allowance for credit losses stood at $4,544,000 compared to $4,236,000 at December 31, 2004, and $3,466,000 at March 31, 2004. This increase was attributable to the additions in loan loss provision that was allocated to the allowance for credit losses as a result of continued growth in the loan portfolio. The ratio of the allowance to total loans outstanding was 1.33%, 1.23% and 1.08%, respectively, at March 31, 2005, December 31, 2004, and March 31, 2004. Non-performing assets and foreclosed real estate owned. Non-performing assets totaled $7,746,000 at March 31, 2005. This represents 2.22% of total loans, compared to $510,000 or .15% at December 31, 2004, and $1,633,000 or .51% at March 31, 2004. Non-accrual loans at March 31, 2005 totaled $7,706,000. This relates to one borrower involving forest products. Although the borrower is continuing operations, the deteriorating financial condition of the borrower creates the potential the Company may not be able to collect all principal and interest according to the terms of the loan. Additionally, $3,518,000 of the non-accrual loans outstanding are guaranteed by the United States Department of Agriculture. Based on current analysis, management has made provisions in the loan loss reserves for potential losses associated with non-accrual loans. Foreclosed real estate consists of two properties secured by real estate with no individual material balances. ANALYSIS OF NON-PERFORMING ASSETS MARCH 31 DECEMBER 31 MARCH 31 (in thousands) 2005 2004 2004 Accruing loans past due 90 days or more $ 6 $ -- $ 3 Non-accrual loans 7,706 470 1,547 Foreclosed real estate 40 40 83 ------ ---- ------ TOTAL $7,746 $510 $1,633 Non-interest income and expense. Non-interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2005 increased $315,000, compared to the same period in 2004. The primary reasons for the increases were additional service charge income and gain on sale of loans. Service charges on deposit accounts increased $33,000, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2004. Gain on sale of loans totaled $279,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and totaled $69,000 for the same three month period in 2004. Prior to 2004, the Company did not sell loans into the secondary market. However, a real estate -12- mortgage department was included with the BNW acquisition, resulting in revenues relating to gain on sale of loans. Commitment to sell and sale price is established at the time of origination of loans to limit any potential price risk. Non-interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2005 increased $1,273,000, or 48.9%, compared to the same period in 2004. The BNW acquisition was the major contributing factor to increased non-interest expense due to the increase of full time equivalent employees, the addition of five branches, and other operating expenses.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK Interest rate, credit, and operations risks are the most significant market risks which affect the Company's performance. The Company relies on loan review, prudent loan underwriting standards and an adequate allowance for possible credit losses to mitigate credit risk. An asset/liability management simulation model is used to measure interest rate risk. The model produces regulatory oriented measurements of interest rate risk exposure. The model quantifies interest rate risk by simulating forecasted net interest income over a 12 month time period under various interest rate scenarios, as well as monitoring the change in the present value of equity under the same rate scenarios. The present value of equity is defined as the difference between the market value of assets less current liabilities. By measuring the change in the present value of equity under various rate scenarios, management is able to identify interest rate risk that may not be evident from changes in forecasted net interest income. The Company is currently asset sensitive, meaning that interest earning assets mature or re-price more quickly than interest-bearing liabilities in a given period. Therefore, a significant increase in market rates of interest could improve net interest income. Conversely, a decreasing rate environment may adversely affect net interest income. It should be noted that the simulation model does not take into account future management actions that could be undertaken should actual market rates change during the year. Also, the model simulation results are not exact measures of the Company's actual interest rate risk. They are rather only indicators of rate risk exposure, based on assumptions produced in a simplified modeling environment designed to heighten sensitivity to changes in interest rates. The rate risk exposure results of the simulation model typically are greater than the Company's actual rate risk. That is due to the conservative modeling environment, which generally depicts a worst-case situation. Management has assessed the results of the simulation reports as of March 31, 2005, and believes that there has been no material change since December 31, 2004. ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES The Company's disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information the Company must disclose in its reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 ("Exchange Act") is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported on a timely basis. Our management has evaluated, with the participation and under the supervision of our chief executive officer (CEO) and chief financial officer (CFO), the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, our CEO and CFO have concluded that, as of such date, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective in ensuring that information relating to the Company, including its consolidated subsidiaries, required to be disclosed in reports that it files under the Exchange Act is (1) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and (2) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. No change in the Company's internal control over financial reporting occurred during our last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting. -14- PART II - OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1.
