CENTRAL COAST BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2000 (Unaudited)
1. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
In the opinion of Management, the unaudited consolidated condensed
financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only
normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly Central
Coast Bancorp's (the "Company's") consolidated financial position at
June 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999, the results of operations for the
three and six month periods ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 and cash
flows for the six month periods ended June 30, 2000 and 1999.
Certain disclosures normally presented in the notes to the financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles have been omitted. These interim consolidated condensed
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the
Company's 1999 Annual Report to Shareholders. The results of
operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2000 and
1999 may not necessarily be indicative of the operating results for
the full year.
In preparing such financial statements, management is required to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets
and liabilities as of the date of the balance sheet and revenues and
expenses for the period. Actual results could differ significantly
from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly
susceptible to significant changes in the near term relate to the
determination of the allowance for loan losses and the carrying value
of other real estate owned. Management uses information provided by
an independent loan review service in connection with the
determination of the allowance for loan losses.
Management has determined that since all of the commercial banking
products and services offered by the Company are available in each
branch of the Community Bank of Central California, its bank
subsidiary (the "Bank"), all branches are located within the same
economic environment and management does not allocate resources based
on the performance of different lending or transaction activities, it
is appropriate to aggregate the Bank branches and report them as a
single operating segment.
2. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
In the normal course of business there are outstanding various
commitments to extend credit which are not reflected in the financial
statements, including loan commitments of approximately $120,725,000
and standby letters of credit of $1,881,000 at June 30, 2000.
However, all such commitments will not necessarily culminate in actual
extensions of credit by the Company during 2000.
Approximately $21,809,000 of loan commitments outstanding at June 30,
2000 are for real estate construction loans and are expected to fund
within the next twelve months. The remaining commitments primarily
relate to revolving lines of credit or other commercial loans, and
many of these are expected to expire without being drawn upon.
Therefore, the total commitments do not necessarily represent future
cash requirements. Each potential borrower and the necessary
collateral are evaluated on an individual basis. Collateral varies,
but may include real property, bank deposits, debt or equity
securities or business assets.
Stand-by letters of credit are commitments written to guarantee the
performance of a customer to a third party. These guarantees are
issued primarily relating to purchases of inventory by commercial
customers and are typically short-term in nature. Credit risk is
similar to that involved in extending loan commitments to customers
and accordingly, evaluation and collateral requirements similar to
those for loan commitments are used. Virtually all such commitments
are collateralized.

3. EARNINGS PER SHARE COMPUTATION
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the
weighted average common shares outstanding for the period (6,967,000
and 7,018,000 for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2000,
and 7,142,000 and 7,051,000 for the three and six month periods ended
June 30, 1999). Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential
dilution that could occur if outstanding stock options and stock
purchase warrants were exercised. Diluted earnings per share is
computed by dividing net income by the weighted average common shares
outstanding for the period plus the dilutive effect of options and
warrants (192,000 and 195,000 for the three and six month periods
ended June 30, 2000 and 204,000 and 281,000 for the three and six
month periods ended June 30, 1999).

dividend.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
In addition to the historical information contained herein, this
report on Form 10-Q contains certain forward-looking statements. The
reader of this report should understand that all such forward-looking
statements are subject to various uncertainties and risks that could
affect their outcome. The Company's actual results could differ
materially from those suggested by such forward-looking statements.
Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include,
but are not limited to, variances in the actual versus projected
growth in assets, return on assets, loan losses, expenses, rates
charged on loans and earned on securities investments, rates paid on
deposits, competition effects, fee and other noninterest income
earned, general economic conditions, nationally, regionally and in the
operating market areas of the Company and the Bank, changes in the

changes in securities markets, as well as other factors. This entire
report should be read to put such forward-looking statements in
context. To gain a more complete understanding of the uncertainties
and risks involved in the Company's business this report should be
read in conjunction with Central Coast Bancorp's annual report on Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999.
Interest income and net interest income are presented on a fully
taxable equivalent basis (FTE) within the Management's Discussion and
Analysis.
Business Organization
- ---------------------
Central Coast Bancorp (the "Company") is a California corporation
organized in 1994, and is the parent company for Community Bank of
Central California, a state-chartered bank, headquartered in Salinas,
California (the "Bank"). Other than its investment in the Bank, the
Company currently conducts no other significant business activities,
although it is authorized to engage in a variety of activities which
are deemed closely related to the business of banking upon prior
approval of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the
"FRB"), the Company's principal federal regulator.
The Bank offers a full range of commercial banking services, including
a diverse range of traditional banking products and services to
individuals, merchants, small and medium-sized businesses,
professionals and agribusiness enterprises located in Salinas Valley,
Pajaro Valley and the Monterey Peninsula areas.
Overview
- --------
Central Coast Bancorp recorded net income of $2,243,000 for the
quarter ended June 30, 2000, which was a 12.5% increase over the
$1,994,000 reported for the same period of 1999. Diluted earnings per
share for the second quarter of 2000 was $0.31 versus $0.27 reported
in the year earlier period. The return on equity (ROE) and the return
on assets (ROA) for the second quarter of 2000 were 16.5% and 1.45% as
compared to 15.2% and 1.45% for the same period in 1999.
Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 was
$4,319,000 and $3,719,000 with diluted earnings per share of $.60 and
$.51, respectively. For the first six months of 2000, ROE was 16.0%
and ROA was 1.42% as compared to 14.4% and 1.39% for the same period
in 1999. The earnings per share for the 1999 periods have been
adjusted for the 10% stock dividend distributed in February 2000.
The Company continued to achieve good year over year internal growth
as assets increased $76,064,000 (13.3%) to total $648,817,000 at June
30, 2000. Loans totaled $426,073,000, up $65,661,000 (18.2%) from the
ending balances on June 30, 1999. Deposit balances at quarter-end
totaled $583,951,000 up $79,779,000 (15.8%) from the year earlier
balances. The deposit growth included $20,000,000 of State of
California certificates of deposit placed in the Bank in February
2000.
Central Coast Bancorp ended the second quarter of 2000 with a Tier 1
capital ratio of 11.8% and a total risk-based capital ratio of 13.1%
versus 13.0% and 14.2%, respectively, at the end of the second quarter
of 1999.
7
In October 1998, the Company announced a 5% stock repurchase plan the
purpose of which was to aid in the management of the Company's
capital. The last purchase of stock under this plan was made on May
22, 2000. Under this plan, the Company purchased 337,150 shares at
an average price of $14.98 and with a total value of $5,052,000. In
the second quarter of 2000, the Board of Directors authorized a second
stock repurchase plan for an additional 5% of the then outstanding
shares. Under this plan, the Company may repurchase up to
approximately 348,000 shares, and as of June 30, 2000, the Company had
repurchased 41,935 shares with a total value of $643,000.

Net interest income / net interest margin
- -----------------------------------------
Net interest income, the difference between interest earned on loans
and investments and interest paid on deposits and other borrowings, is
the principal component of the Bank's earnings. Net interest margin
is net interest income expressed as a percentage of average earning
assets.
Second quarter 2000 net interest income of $8,378,000 was a 21.4%
increase of $1,478,000 over the same period in 1999. The interest
income component was up $2,586,000 (25.3%). Average loan balances
were $73,341,000 (21.7%) higher in the second quarter of 2000 versus
the year earlier period. This volume difference added $1,668,000 to
interest income. The average loan yield for the second quarter of
2000 was 80 basis points higher than the average yield in the year
earlier quarter. The higher yield increased interest income by
$796,000. There have been six rate increases implemented by the Bank
in the past twelve months as a result of the rate tightening by the
Federal Reserve Board. For the past year, as investment securities
have matured or been reduced by principal payments the funds have been
allocated to loans and/or overnight Federal funds sold. The average
balance of investment securities in the second quarter of 2000 was
lower by $14,310,000 (8.8%) over the second quarter of 1999. Average
balances for Federal funds sold for these two periods increased
$16,451,000 to $16,787,000. Interest income for the investing
activities increased $122,000 on a period over period basis.
Interest expense was up $1,108,000 (33.3%) on a quarter over quarter
basis. The average balances on interest bearing liabilities were
$50,768,000 (13.6%) higher in the second quarter of 2000 versus the
same quarter in 1999. The higher balances accounted for $669,000 of
the increase in interest expense. Rates paid on interest bearing
liabilities increased 63 basis points on a quarter over quarter basis
and accounted for $439,000 of the interest expense increase.
8
Net interest margin for the second quarters of 2000 and 1999 were
5.85% and 5.52%, respectively.
For the six-month period ending June 30, 2000, net interest income
increased $2,651,000 (19.7%) over the first six months of 1999. The
interest income component increased $4,708,000 to $24,575,000.
Average balances of earning assets were $74,841,000 (15.3%) higher in
the first six months of 2000 than the same period in 1999. The
average balance of loans was $76,457,000 higher, which accounted for
$3,519,000 of the increase in interest income. The average yield
received on loans in the first six months of 2000 was 49 basis points
higher than the 9.23% received in the year earlier period. The higher
yield on loans added $1,017,000 to interest income. The average
balance of investment securities in the first six months of 2000 was
lower by $10,910,000 (6.8%) over the year earlier period. Average
balances for Federal funds sold for these two periods increased
$9,294,000 to $12,561,000. Interest income for the investing
activities increased $172,000 on a period over period basis. As
mentioned in the quarterly analysis above, Federal funds interest
rates were increased six times for a total of 150 basis points since
June 30, 1999. As a result, the average yield of 8.77% received on
all earning assets in the six months ended June 30, 2000 was 57 basis
points higher than the yield received in the first six months of 1999.
Interest expense for the six-month period increased $2,057,000 (31.9%)
from the expense in the same 1999 period. Volume increases in
deposits and borrowings added $1,358,000 of interest expense. Overall
average rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities in the first six
months of 2000 increased 54 basis points to 4.13% from the same period
in 1999. The interest expense increase attributable to the higher
rates was $699,000.
Net interest margin for the first six months of 2000 was 5.74% versus
5.54% in the year earlier period.
The first two following tables provide a summary of the components of
net interest income and the changes within the components for the
periods indicated. The second two tables set forth a summary of the
changes in interest income and interest expense from changes in
average asset and liability balances (volume) and changes in average
interest rates.

Provision for Loan Losses
- -------------------------
The provision for loan losses was $800,000 in the second quarter of
2000 as compared to $410,000 in the second quarter of 1999 and
$526,000 in the first quarter of 2000. For the six-month period ended
June 30, 2000, the Bank provided $1,326,000 versus $537,000 in the
year earlier period. Loan balances increased $30,144,000 in the second
quarter of 2000 and are up $65,661,000 on year over year basis. In
addition to these new, unseasoned loans, several ongoing economic
forces have caused management to increase its provision for loan
losses. Among these are continued pressure on the Salinas Valley
agricultural industry due to poor market prices. In addition, as the
Federal Reserve Board's program to slow down consumer spending takes
effect, the tourism industry will be impacted. Together, customers in
the agriculture and tourism industries represent 36% of the Bank's
total loans and loan commitments outstanding as of June 30, 2000. At
June 30, 2000 and 1999, non-performing assets were $796,000 and
$3,490,000, respectively. The ratios of the allowance for loan losses
to total loans on those two dates were 1.65% and 1.35%, respectively.
Noninterest Income
- ------------------
Noninterest income consists primarily of service charges on deposit
accounts and fees for miscellaneous services. Noninterest income
totaled $631,000 in the second quarter of 2000, which was up $40,000
(6.8%) over the same period in 1999. Income from service charges on
deposit accounts was $99,000 higher mostly due to higher volumes and
new business account fees. This increase was partially offset by the
fact that in the second quarter of 1999, the Company realized a gain
of $45,000 from the sale of investment securities versus no gains in
2000.
For the first six-months of 2000, noninterest income was $1,177,000
versus $1,133,000 in the same period last year. Service charges on
deposits were up $139,000 (21.2%) due to higher volumes and new
business account fees. As the interest rates rose, the activity in
residential mortgage lending slowed significantly in the first half of
2000. Consequently, the fees generated from mortgage originations
decreased $80,000 (46.2%) in the first six months of 2000 as compared
to the same period in 1999. As reported in the quarterly analysis in
the preceding paragraph, a gain of $45,000 was recognized on the sale
of investment securities in the second quarter of 1999 versus no gains
in 2000.
Noninterest Expense
- -------------------
Noninterest expenses increased $512,000 (13.4%) to a total of
$4,336,000 in the second quarter of 2000 versus the second quarter of
1999. Salary and employee benefits increased $217,000 (9.6%) because
of additional staff due to growth, higher benefit costs, and normal
salary increases. On a quarter over quarter basis, premises and fixed
asset expenses were higher by $166,000 (28.1%). Ongoing costs
associated with two branch relocations and remodel of office space in
the second half of 1999 were the major factors contributing to the
increased premises and fixed asset expenses. Other expenses for the
second quarter of 2000 were $1,112,000 for an increase of $129,000
over the prior year quarter. Various items related to higher business
volume and some price increases contributed to the increase. The
overhead efficiency ratios (fully tax equivalent) for the 2000 and
1999 second quarters were 48.1% and 51.0%, respectively.
Noninterest expenses for the six-month period ending June 30, 2000
were $8,456,000 versus $7,647,000 for the same period in 1999.
Salaries and benefits increased $266,000 (5.8%) due to increased
staffing levels, higher benefit costs and normal salary progressions.
Premises and fixed asset expenses were up $316,000 (27.2%) due to the
items as detailed in the previous paragraph. Other expenses increased
$227,000 (11.9%). Factors contributing to the increase were as
discussed above. The overhead efficiency ratio (fully tax equivalent)
for the first six-months of 2000 was 49.0% as compared to 52.5% in the
same period of 1999.
Provision for Income Taxes
- --------------------------
The effective tax rate for the second quarter and first six-months of
2000 was 39.0% for both periods versus 34.8% and 38.0% in the same two
periods of 1999.
13
Securities
- ----------
At June 30, 2000, available-for-sale securities had a market value of
$148,056,000 with an amortized cost basis of $155,755,000. The
unrealized loss of $7,699,000 at June 30, 2000 was a decrease of
$366,000 from the unrealized loss at March 31, 2000. The slightly
lower unrealized loss was the result of a leveling of interest rates
in the securities markets in the second quarter. Other than for short
term funds management, the Bank did not purchase securities during the
second quarter of 2000.
Loans
- -----
Ending loan balances at June 30, 2000 were $426,073,000, which was an
increase of $30,476,000 (7.7%) from year-end 1999 balances and
$65,661,000 (18.2%) from June 30, 1999 balances. With the exception of
consumer loans, all other categories of loans were higher on a year
over year basis. Loan demand has remained brisk and the current
pipeline would indicate that the demand is continuing into the third
quarter.
Nonperforming Assets
- --------------------
Nonperforming assets are comprised of loans delinquent 90 days or more
with respect to interest or principal, loans for which the accrual of
interest has been discontinued, and other real estate which has been
acquired through foreclosure and is awaiting disposition.
Unless well secured and in the process of collection, loans are placed
on nonaccrual status when a loan becomes 90 days past due as to
interest or principal, when the payment of interest or principal in
accordance with the contractual terms of the loan becomes uncertain or
when a portion of the principal balance has been charged off. When a
loan is placed on nonaccrual status, the accrued and unpaid interest
receivable is reversed and the loan is accounted for on the cash or
cost recovery method thereafter, until qualifying for return to
accrual status. Generally, a loan may be returned to accrual status
when all delinquent interest and principal become current in
accordance with the terms of the loan agreement and remaining
principal is considered collectible or when the loan is both well
secured and in process of collection.
Real estate and other assets acquired in satisfaction of indebtedness
are recorded at the lower of estimated fair market value net of
anticipated selling costs or the recorded loan amount, and any
difference between this and the amount is treated as a loan loss. The
costs of maintaining other real estate owned and gains or losses on
the subsequent sale are reflected in current earnings.
The following is a summary of nonperforming assets:

14
Nonperforming loans decreased $1,234,000 during the first six months
of 2000 with $326,000 of that in the second quarter. This decrease
coupled with the year-to-date increase of the provision for the
allowance for loan losses resulted in improvement in the coverage
ratio of the allowance for loan losses to nonperforming loans from
290% at year-end to 1005%.
At June 30, 2000, the recorded investment in loans that are considered
impaired under SFAS No. 114 was $2,073,000 of which $487,000 are
included in nonaccrual loans above. Such impaired loans had valuation
allowances totaling $617,000 based on the estimated fair value of the
collateral.
Allowance for Loan Losses
- -------------------------
The allowance for loan losses reflects management's judgement as to
the level considered adequate to absorb probable losses inherent in
the loan portfolio. The allowance is increased by provisions charged
to expense and reduced by loan charge-offs net of recoveries.
Management determines an appropriate provision based upon information
currently available to analyze loan loss potential, including (1) the
loan portfolio balance in the period; (2) a comprehensive grading and
review of new and existing loans outstanding; (3) actual previous
charge-offs; and, (4) changes in economic conditions.
In determining the provision for estimated losses related to specific
major loans, management evaluates its allowance on an individual loan
basis, including an analysis of the creditworthiness, cash flows and
financial status of the borrower, and the condition and the estimated
value of the collateral. Specific valuation allowances for secured
loans are determined by the excess of recorded investment in the loan
over the fair market value or net realizable value where appropriate,
of the collateral. In determining overall general valuation
allowances to be maintained and the loan loss allowance ratio,
management evaluates many factors including prevailing and forecasted
economic conditions, regular reviews of the quality of loans, industry
experience, historical loss experience, composition and geographic
concentrations of the loan portfolio, the borrowers' ability to repay
and repayment performance and estimated collateral values.
Management believes that the allowance for loan losses at June 30,
2000 is adequate, based on information currently available. However,
no prediction of the ultimate level of loans charged off in future
years can be made with any certainty.
The following table summarizes activity in the allowance for loan
losses for the periods indicated:

Liquidity
- ---------
Liquidity management refers to the Company's ability to provide funds
on an ongoing basis to meet fluctuations in deposit levels as well as
the credit needs and requirements of its clients. Both assets and
liabilities contribute to the Company's liquidity position. Federal
funds lines, short-term investments and securities, and loan
repayments contribute to liquidity, along with deposit increases,
while loan funding and deposit withdrawals decrease liquidity. The
Bank assesses the likelihood of projected funding requirements by
reviewing historical funding patterns, current and forecasted economic
conditions and individual client funding needs. Commitments to fund
loans and outstanding standby letters of credit at June 30, 2000 were
approximately $120,725,000 and $1,881,000, respectively. Such loan
commitments relate primarily to revolving lines of credit and other
commercial loans, and to real estate construction loans.
The Company's sources of liquidity consist of its deposits with other
banks, overnight funds sold to correspondent banks, unpledged
short-term, marketable investments and loans available for sale. On
June 30, 2000, consolidated liquid assets totaled $90.0 million or
13.9% of total assets as compared to $91.1 million or 15.4% of total
consolidated assets on December 31, 1999. In addition to liquid
assets, the Bank maintains lines of credit with correspondent banks
for up to $80,000,000 available on a short-term basis. Informal
agreements are also in place with various other banks to purchase
participations in loans, if necessary. The Company serves primarily a
business and professional customer base and, as such, its deposit base
is susceptible to economic fluctuations. Accordingly, management
strives to maintain a balanced position of liquid assets to volatile
and cyclical deposits.
Capital Resources
- -----------------
The Company's total shareholders' equity was $55,187,000 at June 30,
2000 compared to $53,305,000 at December 31, 1999.
The Company and the Bank are subject to regulations issued by the
Board of Governors and the FDIC which require maintenance of a certain
level of capital. A banking organization's total qualifying capital
includes two components, core capital (Tier 1 capital) and
supplementary capital (Tier 2 capital). Core capital, which must
comprise at least half of total capital, includes common shareholders'
equity, qualifying perpetual preferred stock, trust preferred
securities and minority interests, less goodwill. Supplementary
capital includes the allowance for loan losses (subject to certain
limitations), other perpetual preferred stock, trust preferred
securities, certain other capital instruments and term subordinated
debt. The Company's major capital components are shareholders' equity
in core capital, and the allowance for loan losses in supplementary
capital.
The following table shows the Company's actual capital amounts and
ratios at June 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999 as well as the minimum
capital ratios for capital adequacy under the regulatory framework:

Year 2000
- ---------
During 1998 and 1999, management of the Company focused the
appropriate resources to address the potential problems that could
arise regarding the Year 2000 (Y2K) century date change. The
Company's mission critical systems were evaluated, modified as required
and contingency plans were put into place should the systems have
experienced any failures. The Y2K readiness of vendors and customers
was also evaluated and monitored. The century date change passed
without any operational difficulties for the Company, its vendors or
its customers. There are certain dates within the year 2000 that have
been identified as critical processing dates. The first was January
31, the end of the first month of the year. The second was February
29, leap year day. The third was March 31, the end of the first
quarter. The Company did not experience any processing problems on
those dates. Upcoming dates during the year are October 10, the first
date to require an 8-digit field (10/10/2000) and December 31, the end
of the year. Those dates were tested as part of the Y2K project. The
Company does not anticipate having any processing problems on those
dates, however failure by third parties to adequately remediate Y2K
issues could have an impact upon Central Coast Bancorp, which is
impossible to quantify. Nevertheless, the Company currently expects
that its Y2K compliance efforts will be successful without material
adverse effects on its business.
Item 3. MARKET RISK MANAGEMENT
Overview. The goal for managing the assets and liabilities of the
Bank is to maximize shareholder value and earnings while maintaining a
high quality balance sheet without exposing the Bank to undue interest
rate risk. The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the
Company's interest rate risk management policies. The Bank has an
Asset and Liability Management Committee (ALCO) which establishes and
monitors guidelines to control the sensitivity of earnings to changes
in interest rates.
Asset/Liability Management. Activities involved in asset/liability
management include but are not limited to lending, accepting and
placing deposits, investing in securities and issuing debt. Interest
rate risk is the primary market risk associated with asset/liability
management. Sensitivity of earnings to interest rate changes arises
when yields on assets change in a different time period or in a
different amount from that of interest costs on liabilities. To
mitigate interest rate risk, the structure of the balance sheet is
managed with the goal that movements of interest rates on assets and
liabilities are correlated and contribute to earnings even in periods
of volatile interest rates. The asset/liability management policy
sets limits on the acceptable amount of variance in net interest
margin and market value of equity under changing interest
environments. The Bank uses simulation models to forecast earnings,
net interest margin and market value of equity.
Simulation of earnings is the primary tool used to measure the
sensitivity of earnings to interest rate changes. Using computer
modeling techniques, the Company is able to estimate the potential
impact of changing interest rates on earnings. A balance sheet
forecast is prepared using inputs of actual loan, securities and
interest bearing liabilities (i.e. deposits/borrowings) positions as
the beginning base. The forecast balance sheet is processed against
three interest rate scenarios. The scenarios include a 200 basis
point rising rate forecast, a flat rate forecast and a 200 basis point
falling rate forecast which take place within a one year time frame.
The net interest income is measured during the first year of the rate
changes and in the year following the rate changes. Based on a
forecast using May 31, 2000 balances and measuring against a flat rate
environment, in a one-year horizon an increase in interest rates of
200 basis points would result in an increase of $1,980,000 in net
interest income. Conversely, a 200 basis point decrease would result
in a decrease of $2,470,000 in net interest income.
The simulations of earnings do not incorporate any management actions,
which might moderate the negative consequences of interest rate
deviations. Therefore, they do not reflect likely actual results, but
serve as conservative estimates of interest rate risk.
