ITEM 1. Financial Statements (continued)


                         CCBT FINANCIAL COMPANIES, INC.
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
            Nine Months Ended September 30, 2001 and 2000 (Unaudited)

Business

     CCBT Financial Companies,  Inc. ("Company") was incorporated under the laws
of the  Commonwealth of  Massachusetts on October 8, 1998 under the name of CCBT
Bancorp,  Inc. at the direction of the Board of Directors and management of Cape
Cod Bank and Trust  Company  ("Bank") for the purpose of becoming a bank holding
company for the Bank. On February 11, 1999,  Bancorp became the holding  company
for the Bank by acquiring  100% of the  outstanding  shares of the Bank's common
stock in a 1:1 exchange for Bancorp  common  stock.  During 1999,  the Company's
name was  changed to CCBT  Financial  Companies,  Inc.  The Bank's  charter  was
converted to that of a national bank effective September 1, 1999. Currently, the
Company's business activities are conducted primarily through the Bank.

     During the second  quarter of 2000, the Company,  through its  wholly-owned
subsidiary,  Cape Cod Bank and Trust Company N.A.,  acquired 51% of the stock of
Murray  &  MacDonald  Insurance  Services,  Inc.  (the  "Agency")  of  Falmouth,
Massachusetts,  a full service  insurance  agency offering  property,  casualty,
life,  accident and health  products to clients on Cape Cod. The Agency has been
in  business  since  1972 and has  license  agreements  with  more  than  thirty
insurance  firms.  As part of the  transaction,  Murray  &  MacDonald  President
Douglas D. MacDonald  will continue as President of the Agency,  and will direct
all insurance activities for the Bank.

     In addition to the  acquisition of Murray & MacDonald  Insurance  Services,
Inc., the Company also completed its acquisition of two branch banking  offices,
in  Falmouth  and  Wareham,  Massachusetts,  from Fleet  Bank  during the second
quarter of 2000. These branches added approximately $55 million in deposits at a
15.5% premium, at June 30, 2000.

Basis of Presentation

     The  accompanying  unaudited  consolidated  financial  statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial  information and with the  instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of
Regulation  S-X.  Accordingly,  they do not include all of the  information  and
footnotes  required by generally  accepted  accounting  principles  for complete
financial  statements.  Certain amounts have been  reclassified in the September
30,  2000  financial  statements  to  conform to the 2001  presentation.  In the
opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals)
considered  necessary  for a fair  presentation  have been  included.  Operating
results  for the nine  months  ended  September  30,  2001  are not  necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the current  fiscal year. For
further  information,   refer  to  the  consolidated  financial  statements  and
footnotes  thereto  included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 2000.

ITEM 2. Management's  Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
        of Operations

General

     This  Form  10Q  contains   certain   statements  that  may  be  considered
forward-looking  statements  within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended.  The Company's  actual  results could differ  materially  from those
projected in the forward-looking statements as a result, among other factors, of
changes in general,  national or regional economic  conditions,  changes in loan
default  and  charge-off  rates,  reductions  in  deposit  levels  necessitating
increased  borrowing to fund loans and  investments,  changes in interest rates,
changes in the size and nature of the Company's competition,  and changes in the
assumptions used in making such forward-looking statements.

PART I  FINANCIAL INFORMATION
ITEM 2. Management's  Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
        of Operations (continued)

     The  following   discussion   should  be  read  in  conjunction   with  the
accompanying   consolidated   financial  statements  and  selected  consolidated
financial data included within this report.  Given that the Company's  principal
activity  currently is ownership of the Bank,  for ease of  reference,  the term
"Company" in this item generally will refer to the investments and activities of
the Company and the Bank except where otherwise noted.

     CCBT Financial  Companies,  Inc. is a bank holding company.  The Company is
the sole  stockholder  of Cape Cod Bank and  Trust  Company,  N.A.  which is the
largest  commercial bank  headquartered in Barnstable  County.  It offers a wide
range of commercial  banking  services for individuals,  businesses,  non-profit
organizations,   governmental   units  and   fiduciaries.   The  Bank   receives
substantially all of its deposits from and makes  substantially all of its loans
to individuals  and businesses on Cape Cod,  although the Bank has some loans on
properties  outside its market area,  including some sizable  participations  in
commercial mortgages. The Bank's core market is comprised of retail,  wholesale,
and  manufacturing  businesses;  primary  households  (including  a  significant
retirement population);  and a growing number of second homeowners. In addition,
a substantial  non-core  vacation  population  contributes  to seasonal  deposit
growth.  The Company's  only  subsidiary  other than the Bank is CCBT  Statutory
Trust I.

         of Operations (cont.)

                              RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
          Three Months Ended September 30, 2001 vs. September 30, 2000

Source and Use of  Funds

     Borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank were the primary source of funds
during the third  quarter of 2001,  resulting  in an increase of 80.5% or $174.7
million, on average, when compared to the same quarter of 2000. Average interest
bearing  deposits  were lower by 3.5% or $25.9  million in the third  quarter of
2001 as compared to 2000. A significant  reduction  occurred in Certificates o f
Deposit of $100,000 or more which  decreased  43.7% or $49.0 million  during the
third quarter of 2001 when compared to the same quarter of 2000.  This reduction
can  be  attributed  to  the  maturity  of a  significant  amount  of  one  year
certificates  of deposit during the third quarter of 2001. In contrast,  average
interest bearing transaction accounts increased for the third quarter of 2001 as
compared to 2000 with Money  Market  accounts  up $14.9  million or 9.0% and NOW
accounts  increasing $9.9 million or 7.4%. Average  Non-interest  bearing demand
deposits  increased  3.8%  or $8.3  million  for the  third  quarter  of 2001 as
compared to 2000.

     On  average,  securities  were  higher by $37.7  million or 8.3% during the
third  quarter  of  2001  when  compared  to the  third  quarter  of  2000  with
significant  growth  occuring in the Other  Securities  category which increased
$29.6 million or 13.8% and in CMO's which increased $20.8 million or 12.4%. When
compared  to the third  quarter of 2000,  average  loans were  higher in 2001 by
19.2% or $149.2  million.  Loan growth was  spearheaded by residential  mortgage
lending,  up $87.7  million or 25.5% in a very active local  market.  On average
commercial  construction  and mortgage loans also increased in the third quarter
of 2001 by $48.0  million or 18.8% when compared to the same period in the prior
year.

Net interest income

     Net interest  income was $13.0 million for the three months ended September
30, 2001 as compared to $12.8 million for the same period in 2000, up 1.2%.  The
spread and net interest  margin ratios were 2.94% and 3.63%,  respectively,  for
the three  months  ended  September  30,  2001 as  compared  to 3.23% and 4.14%,
respectively, for the comparable 2000 period.

Provision for loan losses

     A slowing economy  increased  management's  concern regarding the potential
for future loan losses.  However,  seasonal paydowns of commercial loans and the
sale  of  residential  mortgages  decreased  the  size  of the  loan  portfolio.
Accordingly on balance no provisions were made to the reserve for loan losses in
the quarters ended  September 30, 2001 or 2000.  Management  believes that, upon
continuing  review of loan payment and quality  statistics,  the current reserve
continues  to be  adequate  to cover  losses  likely to result from loans in the
current portfolio.

Non-interest Income and Expense

     Non-interest  income  totaled  $6.4  million  for the  three  months  ended
September 30, 2001, up 60.6% compared to the $4.0 million earned during the same
period in 2000. Net gains on the sale of Residential  Mortgage loans contributed
$1.7  million  to this  increase  while  net  gains  on the  sale of  securities
increased $247 thousand.  Financial Advisor Fees increased $132 thousand despite
the negative  effects of the Stock  Market  decline,  reflecting  a  significant
increase in new business while insurance  commissions,  largely due to referrals
of bank customers, have increased $167 thousand.

During the third quarter of 2001,  non-interest  expenses totaled $11.6 million,
greater than the $10.2 million  expended during the comparable  period last year
by $1.4 million or 13.3%.  Salaries and employee  benefits rose $760 thousand or
14.0%,  with  $404  thousand  of  this  increase  attributable  to  commissions.
Increased  expenses in other  categories  include  delivery  and  communications
expenses,  and building and equipment expenses.  These increases are a result of
increased utilities costs, real estate tax increases, and a significant increase
in amortization expense of computer software.

Income taxes

     Applicable  State and Federal  income tax  expense of $2.7  million for the
quarter ended  September 30, 2001 was 24.9% more than the $2.2 million  recorded
for the same  quarter in 2000,  a reflection  of higher  pretax net income.  The
combined  effective  State and  Federal  tax rate was 35% and 34% of pretax  net
income for the third quarter of 2001 and 2000, respectively.

Net income

     Consolidated net income was $5.0 million representing earnings per share of
$0.58 for the three months ended  September 30, 2001 as compared to $4.4 million
or $0.51 per share for the  comparable  three months ended  September  30, 2000.
Annualized  returns on average  assets and average equity were 1.34% and 18.44%,
respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2001 as compared to 1.34%
and 19.31%, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2000.

PART I  FINANCIAL INFORMATION
ITEM 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
         of Operations (cont.)

                              RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
           Nine Months Ended September 30, 2001 vs. September 30, 2000

Source and Use of  Funds

     Average  interest  bearing  deposits  increased $98.9 million or 15.4% when
comparing  the  first  nine  months  of 2001  with  the  same  period  in  2000.
Significant  growth  occurred in average  Time  deposits  with  Certificates  of
Deposit greater than $100,000  increasing $17.4 million or 22.0%, and Other time
deposits  increasing  $50.5  million  or  35.7%.  Interest  bearing  transaction
accounts also  increased in the 2001 period with Money Market  accounts up 13.5%
or $20.1  million  and NOW  accounts  up 13.6%  or $16.5  million.  Non-interest
bearing  demand  deposits  increased  $19.1 million or 10.2% on average,  in the
first nine months of 2001 when  compared to the same period in 2000.  Additional
funds were raised through increased  borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank,
up $67.3 million or 21.3% in the 2001 period when compared to the same period of
2000.

     When  compared to the first nine months of 2000,  average loans were higher
in  2001  by  $161.5  million  or  22.0%.   Residential   mortgages  contributed
significantly  to this  growth,  up $98.4  million  or 31.0%,  while  commercial
construction and mortgage loans increased $47.7 million or 19.5%.  Additionally,
Home Equity loans were up $12.9 million for a 44.2%  increase for the first nine
months of 2001 as  compared  to 2000.  On average,  Securities  increased  $35.4
million or 7.5% during the first nine  months of 2001 when  compared to the same
period in 2000,  with growth in Other  Securities  of $45.4  million,  or 22.1%,
while U. S. Government agencies declined $10.9 million or 3.9%.

Net interest income

     Net interest  income was $38.7 million for the nine months ended  September
30, 2001 as compared to $35.6  million for the same period in 2000 up 8.7%.  The
spread and net interest  margin ratios were 2.95% and 3.69%,  respectively,  for
the nine  months  ended  September  30,  2001 as  compared  to 3.02% and  3.94%,
respectively, for the comparable 2000 period.

Provision for loan losses

     Although the size of the loan  portfolio  grew during the nine months ended
September 30, 2001 and there was increasing  concern about the possible  effects
of a weakening  economy,  non-performing  assets declined during this period and
recoveries on loans previously charged off exceeded new charge-offs. Accordingly
on balance no  provisions  were made to the  reserve for loan losses in the nine
months  ended  September  30,  2001 or  2000.  Management  believes  that,  upon
continuing  review of loan payment and quality  statistics,  the current reserve
continues  to be adequate to cover  losses  likely to results  from loans in the
current portfolio.

Non-interest Income and Expense

     Non-interest  income  totaled  $16.7  million  for the  nine  months  ended
September  30, 2001, up 39.2%  compared to the $12.0  million  earned during the
same  period  in  2000.   Of  this  increase  $1.1  million  and  $2.2  million,
respectively,  can be  attributable  to net gains on the sale of securities  and
loans. Insurance commissions have increased $859 thousand compared to prior year
results  which only  included the agency's  revenues  from the date of purchase.
However, the increase in insurance commissions also reflects the positive impact
of the referral of bank customers to the agency.


     During the first nine months of 2001,  non-interest  expenses totaled $33.7
million,  greater than the $28.2 million  expended during the comparable  period
last year by $5.5 million or 19.7%.  Salaries and  employee  benefits  rose $3.0
million or 19.6% with commissions  accounting for $884 thousand of this increase
and salaries, in line with Management expectations,  increasing $1,723 thousand.
Increased expenses in other categories  include  amortization of intangibles for
acquisitions completed during the second quarter of 2000, building and equipment
expenses for additional  locations and depreciation and amortization  related to
upgraded  computer  equipment and software,  and marketing and advertising costs
incurred for a campaign to launch the Company's new logo.

Income taxes

     Applicable  State and Federal  income tax  expense of $7.4  million for the
nine months  ended  September  30, 2001 was 12.9%  greater than the $6.6 million
recorded for the same period in 2000, a reflection  of higher pretax net income.
The combined  effective  State and Federal tax rate was 34% of pretax net income
for each period presented.

Net income

     Consolidated net income was $14.2 million  representing  earnings per share
of $1.65 for the nine  months  ended  September  30,  2001 as  compared to $12.8
million or $1.49 per share for the  comparable  nine months ended  September 30,
2000.  Annualized  returns on average  assets and average  equity were 1.29% and
18.48%,  respectively,  for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 as compared
to 1.36 % and 19.47%,  respectively,  for the nine months  ended  September  30,
2000.


               COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF SELECTED PERIOD-END ASSETS,
                             LIABILITIES AND CAPITAL

     The Company had $1.48 billion  consolidated  total assets,  $935.4  million

     Management   believes  that,  upon  review  of  loan  quality  and  payment
statistics,  provisions  from current  income were  unnecessary in the indicated
periods,  notwithstanding growth in the loan portfolio.  The reserve represented
1.39% of total loans at  September  30, 2001,  1.43% at December  31, 2000,  and
1.50% at September 30,2000.  Management  considers the reserve to be adequate at
September  30,  2001,  although  there can be no  assurance  that the reserve is
adequate or that additional provisions might be necessary.

     The Company had  outstanding  commitments to originate new  residential and
commercial mortgages of $52.9 million at September 30, 2001 and $57.8 million at
December 31, 2000 which are not  reflected  on the  consolidated  statements  of
financial condition.  Additional unadvanced loan funds are summarized as follows
for the indicated periods:

     Reflecting  the  maturity  of $25  million  in  brokered  deposits  and the
seasonal  nature of the Cape Cod economy as discussed in  "Liquidity" on page 18
herein,  total  deposits at September  30, 2001 are $37.9  million or 3.9% lower
than total deposits at December 31, 2000.  Generally,  the Company's strategy is
to price deposits  according to local market rates,  offering higher alternative
rates based on increasing amounts deposited.  Interest rates paid are frequently
reviewed and are modified to reflect changing conditions.

Borrowed Funds

     Historically,  the Company has  selectively  engaged in short and long term
borrowings  from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Boston,  and has sold  securities
under agreements to repurchase, to fund loans and investments.  At September 30,
2001,  borrowed funds totaled $406.4 million, up 28.7% or $90.6 million compared
to borrowed  funds at  December  31,2000.  This  increase  offsets the  seasonal
deposit  decline  described  under the  section  entitled  "Deposits"  above and
contributes to the support of heretofore described loan growth.

     During the third quarter of 2001, CCBT Statutory Trust I was formed for the
purpose of issuing trust preferred  securities and investing the proceeds of the
sale of these  securities in subordinated  debentures  issued by the Company.  A
total of $5 million of floating rate Trust Preferred  Securities were issued and
are  scheduled  to mature in 2031,  callable at the option of the Company  after
7/31/06.  Distributions on these securities are payable  quarterly in arrears on
the last day of April, July, October and January. The Trust Preferred Securities
are  presented in the  consolidated  statements  of  financial  condition of the
Company as Subordinated Debt. The Company records  distributions  payable on the
Trust Preferred  Securities as Interest on subordinated debt in its consolidated
statements of income.

Stockholders' Equity

     The  Company's  capital to assets  ratio was 7.58% at  September  30,  2001
compared to 7.03% at December 31, 2000.

     The Company (on a  consolidated  basis) and the Bank are subject to various
regulatory  capital  requirements  administered by the federal banking agencies.
Failure to meet minimum capital  requirements can initiate certain mandatory and
possible  additional  discretionary  actions by regulators  that, if undertaken,
could have a direct  material  effect on the Company's and the Bank's  financial
statements.  Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory  framework for
prompt corrective action, the Company and/or the Bank must meet specific capital
guidelines that involve quantitative  measures of their assets,  liabilities and
certain  off-balance-sheet  items  as  calculated  under  regulatory  accounting
practices.  Holding  companies,  such as the Company,  are not subject to prompt
corrective action  provisions.  The capital amounts and  classification are also
subject to  qualitative  judgments  by the  regulators  about  components,  risk
weightings,  and other factors.  Quantitative measures established by regulation
to ensure capital  adequacy require the Company and the Bank to maintain minimum
amounts of total and Tier 1 capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined).
The following  schedule displays these capital  guidelines and the ratios of the
Company and the Bank as of September 30, 2001.

     The  Company's  book  value at  September  30,  2001 was  $13.05  per share
compared to $11.47 per share at December 31, 2000.

                                    LIQUIDITY

     The Company normally experiences a wide swing in its liquidity each year as
a result of the seasonal nature of the economy in its market area.  Liquidity is
usually  high in late  summer and early fall and the annual low point is usually
in the early spring.  The Bank's investment  portfolio is of high quality and is
highly marketable  although a gain or loss would be realized if the market value
of securities  sold were not equal to their adjusted book value at date of sale.
Alternately,   the  Bank  can  borrow  funds  using  investment   securities  as
collateral.  The Bank has an  available  line of credit of $5.0 million from the
Federal Home Loan Bank of Boston.  The Bank may borrow from the Federal  Reserve
Bank if necessary.

                           ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENT

     Through the Company's Asset/Liability  Management Committee ("ALCO"), which
is comprised of senior  management and several  Directors,  the Company monitors
the level and general mix of earning  assets and interest  bearing  liabilities,
with   particular   attention  to  those  assets  and   liabilities   which  are
rate-sensitive. The primary objective of ALCO is to manage interest rate risk in
accordance with policies approved by the Board of Directors regarding acceptable
levels of interest rate risk, liquidity and capital. The committee meets monthly
and  sets  the  rates  paid on  deposits,  approves  loan  pricing  and  reviews
investment transactions.

     Given  the  substantial  liquidity  from cash  flow and  maturities  of the
Company's investment  portfolio,  the sizable proportion of rate sensitive loans
to total loans, and the large core deposit base, ALCO believes the Company to be
moderately  asset-sensitive  to changes in  interest  rates.  Nevertheless,  the
Company's  strategy has  included  the funding of certain  fixed rate loans with
medium term borrowed funds in order to mitigate a margin squeeze should interest
rates rise.

     The  Cape  Cod  market  is one in which  competing  financial  institutions
frequently  offer a wide range of yields for similar  deposit  products.  Within
this market, the Company finds it necessary,  from time to time, to offer higher
rates  than it would  otherwise  justify,  thereby  increasing  pressure  on net
interest  income.  In order to offset  this  pressure  somewhat,  the Company is
strategically focusing on customer relationship profitability.

                          NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

     In June 2001, the Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board  ("FASB")  issued
Statement  of  Financial   Accounting   Standards  ("SFAS")  No.  141,  Business
Combinations,  and SFAS No. 142,  Goodwill and Other  Intangible  Assets.  These
Statements  change the  accounting  for business  combinations  and goodwill and
intangible assets.  SFAS No. 141 requires that the purchase method of accounting
be used for all business combinations  initiated after June 30, 2001. Use of the
pooling-of-interests  method is  prohibited.  SFAS No. 142,  which is  effective
January 1, 2002, changes the accounting for goodwill from an amortization method
to an  impairment-only  approach.  In addition,  this  Statement  requires  that
acquired intangible assets, as defined, be amortized over their useful lives. As
a result,  effective  January 1, 2002, the Company's  goodwill will no longer be
amortized but will be evaluated for  impairment  and the Company's  core deposit
intangibles  will continue to be amortized  over their  estimated  useful lives.
Management is currently  evaluating the impact of adopting this Statement on the
consolidated financial statements.
