Adoption of SFAS 133 had no cumulative effect on earnings. Concurrent with this adoption the Bancorp reclassified certain investment securities, consisting of mortgage-backed securities with original maturities of 15 and 30 years, from the Held to Maturity category to the Available for Sale category. These investments had a book value of $18.2 million and a market value of $18.4 as of October 1, 1998, which increased Stockholders' Equity by $151.5 thousand. SOUTHERN FINANCIAL BANCORP, INC. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Financial Condition Total assets of Southern Financial Bancorp, Inc. (the "Bancorp") at September 30, 1998 were $251.1 million, an increase of $24.5 million, or 10.8%, from total assets of $226.6 million at December 31, 1997. Total liabilities increased by $22.7 million, or 10.9%, to $230.8 million at September 30, 1998 from $208.1 million at December 31, 1997. The growth in total assets resulted primarily from increases of $20.5 million in investment securities and $5.5 million in overnight earning deposits from December 31, 1997 to September 30, 1998. Total loans receivable decreased by $1.5 million to $127.5 million at September 30, 1998 from $129 million at December 31, 1997, as new loan originations did not fully offset loan sales and prepayments of residential mortgage loans during the period. In this period the Bancorp sold for the first time the guaranteed portion of some of the Small Business Administration (SBA) loans that it held in portfolio. These sales totaled $5.5 million. Residential mortgage loans (permanent and construction) decreased $5.6 million, from $36.9 million at December 31, 1997, to $31.3 million at September 30, 1998, as lower interest rates led to increased refinances. Non-residential construction mortgage loans decreased by $4.9 million, or 37.8%, to $8.2 million at September 30, 1998, from $13.1 million at December 31, 1997. Non-residential permanent mortgage loans increased by $6.6 million to $63.8 million at September 30, 1998, from $57.2 million at December 31, 1997. Non-mortgage business loans increased $3.4 million to $24.6 million at September 30, 1998, from $21.2 million at December 31, 1997. Investment securities available-for-sale increased from $4.7 million at December 31, 1997, to $45.2 million at September 30, 1998. There were purchases of $45 million of mortgage-backed securities, $4.7 million of obligations of counties and municipalities, and $1 million of corporate obligations during the nine months ended September 30, 1998, all of which were designated as available-for-sale. There were sales of $6.7 million and repayments and amortization of $3.5 million of investment securities available-for-sale during the period. Investment securities held-to-maturity decreased by $20.1 million, or 25%, to $60.4 million at September 30, 1998, from $80.5 million at December 31, 1997. This decrease resulted from $22.1 million in repayments and amortization during the nine months ended September 30, 1998, partially offset by purchases of $2 million of obligations of counties and municipalities. The increase in total assets was funded by an increase in customer deposits of $24.4 million, or 12.1%, to $226.6 million at September 30, 1998 from $202.2 million at December 31, 1997. Results of Operations The Bancorp's principal sources of revenue are interest on loans, gains on sales of loans, fees and service charges on loans, interest and dividends on investment securities, and service charges on deposit accounts. Net income is affected by interest on deposits and borrowings and operating expenses. The following table presents, for periods indicated, average balances of and weighted average yields on interest-earning assets and average balances of and weighted average effective rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities. Calculations have been made utilizing month-end average balances for loans and investment securities and daily average balances for borrowings and deposits. Loan balances do not include non-accrual loans.

Diluted earnings per share were $1.14 and $0.96 for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The weighted average number of diluted shares of common stock outstanding were 1,715,787 and 1,694,722 for the same periods in 1998 and 1997, respectively. Net income for the three months ended September 30, 1998 was $658 thousand, an increase of $90 thousand, or 15.9%, over $568 thousand for the same period last year. Diluted earnings per share were $0.38 and $0.34 for the quarters ended September 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The weighted average number of diluted shares of common stock outstanding were 1,717,428 and 1,669,150 for the three months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Net interest income before provision for loan losses for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 was $6.3 million, an increase of $449 thousand, or 7.7%, from $5.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1997. The increase resulted primarily from growth in average interest-earning assets, which was partially offset by a decrease in interest margin. Total interest-earning assets in the nine months ended September 30, 1998 averaged $228.3 million as compared to $197.5 million for the same period in 1997. For the nine months ended September 30, 1998, the interest rate spread was 3.38%, a decrease of 26 basis points from 3.64% for the nine months ended September 30, 1997. The yield on interest-earning assets for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 was 8.12%, a decrease of 24 basis points from the same period last year. The cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased by 2 basis points to 4.74% for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 from 4.72% for the nine months ended September 30, 1997. Total interest income increased by $1.5 million, or 12.2%, to $13.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 from $12.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1997. This increase was primarily due to an increase of $12.1 million in average loans receivable to $127.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 from $115.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1997. Average investment securities increased by $18.7 million from $81.9 million in the nine months ended September 30, 1997 to $100.6 million in the nine months ended September 30, 1998. The yield on average investment securities for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 was 6.08%, a decrease of 34 basis points from 6.42% for the nine months ended September 30, 1997. Total interest expense increased by $1.1 million, or 16.3%, to $7.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 from $6.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1997. Customer deposits averaged $210.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1998, up $31.2 million from $179.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1997. The average effective rate paid on deposits increased by 3 basis points to 4.72% in the 1998 period from 4.69% in the 1997 period. Average borrowings were $3.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1998, a decrease of $2.1 million from $5.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1997. The average effective rate paid on borrowings increased to 5.68% for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 from 5.57% for the same period in 1997. The provision for loan losses for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 was $675 thousand, as compared to $560 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 1997. The provision for loan losses is a current charge to earnings to increase the allowance for loan losses. The Bancorp has established the allowance for loan losses to absorb the inherent risk in lending after considering an evaluation of the loan portfolio, current economic conditions, changes in the nature and volume of lending and past loan experience. Recently, the Bancorp's volume of non-residential mortgage loans and business loans has increased, and these loans tend to carry a higher risk classification. The increase in the provision for loan losses reflects the growth in the portfolio of non-residential mortgage loans and business loans. It is the opinion of the Bancorp that the allowance for loan losses at September 30, 1998 remains adequate. Although the Bancorp believes that the allowance is adequate, there can be no assurances that additions to such allowance will not be necessary in future periods, which would adversely affect the Bancorp's results of operations. The allowance for loan losses at September 30, 1998 was $2.2 million, or 1.7% of total loans receivable, versus $2 million at December 31, 1997, which was 1.6% of total loans receivable. Other income for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 was $1.6 million as compared to $1.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1997, an increase of $329 thousand, or 26%. Gain on sale of loans increased by $340 thousand from $146 thousand during the nine months ended September 30, 1997, to $486 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 1998. This increase was primarily the result of the sale of the guaranteed portion of SBA loans on which gains have been recognized. Fee income increased $7 thousand during the nine months ended September 30, 1998, compared to the same period last year. Other income decreased from $77 thousand during the nine months ended September 30, 1997, to $59 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 1998, because the 1997 period included a one-time payment from the Bancorp's health insurance provider related to their public issuance of stock. Other expense increased by $316 thousand, or 7.6%, to $4.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 from $4.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1997. Employee compensation and benefits increased by $253 thousand, or 13.6%, reflecting normal wage increases for existing personnel and the cost of opening of a new branch in April 1998. Expenses for premises and equipment decreased by $62 thousand, or 7.2%, primarily because of moving the Fairfax branch to a location owned by the Bancorp and eliminating the rent expense. Other expense increased by $148 thousand, or 22.5%, reflecting higher miscellaneous expenses during the nine-month period ended September 30, 1998. Regulatory Capital Requirements At September 30, 1998 the Bancorp exceeded all regulatory capital standards, which were as follows: Actual Capital Required Capital Excess Captial Amount Ratio Amount Ratio Amount Ratio ---------------------- ----------------------- --------------------- ($ in thousands) Leverage capital $ 19,965 8.23% $ 9,706 4.00% $10,259 4.23% Tier 1 capital 19,965 14.35% 5,566 4.00% 14,399 10.35% Tier 1 and Tier 2 capital 21,864 15.71% 11,132 8.00% 10,732 7.71% Liquidity The Bancorp's primary sources of funds are deposits, loan repayments, proceeds from the sale of loans and investment securities, repayments and maturities of investment securities, and borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta under a credit availability in the amount of $45 million. At September 30, 1998, the Bancorp had $6.9 million of unfunded lines of credit and undisbursed construction loan funds of $7.1 million. Approved loan commitments were $8.6 million at September 30, 1998, and the Bancorp had commitments from investors to purchase loans in the amount of $3.3 million. It is anticipated that funding requirements for these commitments can be met from the normal sources of funds. Year 2000 In June of 1998, Southern Financial Bank's Board of Directors approved a Plan to mitigate the risks associated with Year 2000. The Plan was developed in response to the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council ("FFIEC") Interagency Statement titled "Year 2000 Project Management Awareness." The Plan will be updated as further guidance is received from the FFIEC. The Plan covers five phases: Awareness, Assessment, Renovation, Validation and Implementation. The Bancorp has completed the Awareness phase. In conjunction with the Plan a mission statement was drafted and made available to employees and customers. Progress reports are sent to customers via statement stuffers, newsletters, and the Bancorp's website. The Board of Directors receives an update on the Bancorp's Year 2000 readiness at each meeting. The Bancorp has also completed the Assessment phase. Each of the Bancorp's mission-critical systems, most of which are provided by third-party vendors, has been reviewed in the context of Year 2000 risks. The Bancorp has worked closely with Intrieve, Inc., its data processing service bureau based in Cincinnati, Ohio, on the Plan. All other mission-critical vendors have been contacted. Each of the Bancorp's computers has been tested to determine which require upgrading and which need to be replaced. Customer surveys have been conducted to determine whether there are risks within the Bancorp's customer base that should be mitigated. The Bancorp is currently working on the Renovation, Validation and Implementation phases. Schedules have been developed to upgrade and/or replace all of the Bancorp's computers that are not Year 2000 ready by October 31, 1998. As part of the validation of the Plan, Intrieve, Inc. has selected a group of users to participate in Proxy Testing of its system in October 1998. The primary purpose of the test is to ensure that the systems handle the critical date change without losing the integrity of the data processing systems. In addition, Intrieve, Inc., has scheduled testing of communications between the host computer and the Bancorp's terminals and ATM's through the Bancorp's satellites and tail circuits. The ATM's were tested in September 1998, and end-to-end testing for the teller systems is scheduled for November 1998. Other mission-critical systems are being reviewed and tested. Since most of the Bancorp's systems are provided by third party vendors, such as Intrieve, Inc., on a contractual basis, the Bancorp's out of pocket expenses through September 30, 1998 have not been material. During the fourth quarter of 1998, the Bancorp expects to incur expenses and costs related to the purchase of new computers and the upgrade of software not exceeding $50 thousand. The Bancorp expects to complete work on its contingency plan by December 15, 1998.
