Note 1 - Basis of Presentation

The accompanying  financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the
requirements  for  interim  financial  statements  and,  accordingly,  they  are
condensed  and omit  disclosures,  which  would  substantially  duplicate  those
contained  in the most  recent  annual  report  on Form  10-KSB.  The  financial
statements, as of September 30, 2004 and for the interim periods ended September
30, 2004 and 2003, are unaudited and, in the opinion of management,  include all
adjustments  (consisting of normal recurring  adjustments)  considered necessary
for a fair presentation.  The financial  information as of December 31, 2003 has
been derived from the audited financial  statements as of that date. For further
information,  refer  to the  financial  statements  and the  notes  included  in
Regional  Bankshares,  Inc.'s  Annual  Report on Form  10-KSB for the year ended
December 31, 2003.

Note 2 - Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
No recent authoritative  pronouncements that affect accounting,  reporting,  and
disclosure  of  financial  information  by us have  occurred  during the quarter
ending September 30, 2004, other than as described below.

In November  2003, the Emerging  Issues Task Force ("EITF")  reached a consensus
that certain  quantitative  and qualitative  disclosures  should be required for
debt and marketable equity  securities  classified as available for sale or held
to maturity under SFAS No. 115 and SFAS No. 124 that are impaired at the balance
sheet  date  but  for  which   other-than-temporary   impairment  has  not  been
recognized.   Accordingly   EITF  issued  EITF  No.   02-1,  "  The  Meaning  of
Other-Than-Temporary  Impairment and Its  Application  to Certain  Investments."
This issue  addresses  the meaning of  other-than-temporary  impairment  and its
application  of investments  classified as either  available for sale or held to
maturity  under SFAS No. 115 and  provides  guidance  determining  the amount of
impairment and additional quantitative and qualitative disclosures. The guidance
for  determining  the amount of  impairment  was  scheduled to be effective  for
periods  ending after June 15, 2004, but has been delayed  indefinitely  pending
implementation  guidance by the FASB. The disclosure provisions of EITF No. 03-1
were  effective  for fiscal years ending after  December 15, 2003.  Adopting the
disclosure  provisions of EITF No. 03-1 did not have any impact on the Company's
financial position or results of operations.

In March 2004, the FASB issued an exposure draft on "Share-Based  Payment".  The
proposed  Statement  addresses  the  accounting  for  transactions  in  which an
enterprise  receives employee services in exchange for a) equity  instruments of
the  enterprise  or b)  liabilities  that are  based  on the  fair  value of the
enterprise's  equity  instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of such
equity  instruments.  This  proposed  Statement  would  eliminate the ability to
account  for  share-based  compensation  transactions  using APB Opinion No. 25,
"Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees",  and generally would require instead
that such transactions be accounted for using a  fair-value-based  method.  This
Statement, if approved, will be effective for awards that are granted, modified,
or settled in fiscal  years  beginning  after a)  December  15,  2004 for public
entities  and  nonpublic  entities  that  used the  fair-value-based  method  of
accounting under the original provisions of Statement 123 for recognition or pro
forma  disclosure  purposes  and b) December  15,  2005 for all other  nonpublic
entities.  On October 16,  2004,  the FASB  delayed the  effective  date of this
proposal by six months and  anticipates  it will be  effective  for by the third
quarter of 2005.  Retrospective  application of this Statement is not permitted.
The  adoption  of this  Statement,  if  approved,  could  have an  impact on the
Company's financial position or results of operations.

Other  accounting  standards  that have been  issued or  proposed by the FASB or
other standards-setting  bodies that do not require adoption until a future date
are not  expected  to  have a  material  impact  on the  consolidated  financial
statements upon adoption.

Note 3 - Stock-Based Compensation
Our stock-based employee  compensation plan and stock warrants are accounted for
under the recognition and measurement  principles of Accounting Principles Board
("APB")  Opinion No. 25,  Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,  and related
Interpretations.  No  compensation  cost  is  reflected  in net  income,  as all
warrants and options  granted  under these plans 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 (loss) and earnings (loss)
per share if the fair  value  recognition  provisions  of  Financial  Accounting
Standards Board ("FASB")  Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards ("SFAS")
No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, had been applied to the Option
Plans.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation

The  following is a discussion  of our  financial  condition as of September 30,
2004 compared to December 31, 2003,  and the results of operations for the three
and nine months ended September 30, 2004,  compared to the three and nine months
ended September 30, 2003.  These comments should be read in conjunction with our
condensed  financial  statements and accompanying notes appearing in this report
and  in  conjunction  with  the  financial  statements  and  related  notes  and
disclosures  in our Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31,
2003. This report  contains  "forward-looking  statements"  relating to, without
limitation, future economic performance,  plans and objectives of management for
future operations, adequacy of our allowance for loan losses, and projections of
revenues  and  other  financial  items  that  are  based on the  beliefs  of our
management,  as well as assumptions made by and information  currently available
to  our  management.  The  words  "expect,"  "estimate,"  "anticipate,"  "plan,"
"intend," "project," and "believe," as well as similar expressions, are intended
to identify forward-looking statements. Our actual results may differ materially
from the results discussed in the forward-looking  statements, and our operating
performance each quarter is subject to various risks and uncertainties  that are
discussed in detail in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.


Results of Operations

Net Interest Income

For the nine months ended  September  30, 2004,  net interest  income  increased
$451,699 or 30.68%,  to $1,923,814 as compared to $1,472,115 for the same period
in 2003.  Interest  income from loans,  including  fees,  increased  $420,578 or
21.74%,  from the nine months ended September 30, 2003 to the comparable  period
in 2004, as we continued to experience  growth in our loan  portfolio.  Interest
expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 was $511,061 as compared to
$540,489 for the same period in 2003. Although interest bearing accounts such as
savings  accounts and  certificates of deposit  increased during the nine months
ended September 30, 2004, rates being paid on these accounts were lower due to a
declining  interest rate  environment  when compared to the same period in 2003,
resulting in a decrease in interest expense. The net interest margin realized on
earning assets increased from 4.41% for the nine months ended September 30, 2003
to 4.59% for the same period in 2004.  The interest rate spread  increased by 25
basis points from 4.16% at September 30, 2003 to 4.41% at September 30, 2004.

For the quarter ended September 30, 2004, net interest  income totaled  $684,046
an  increase  of $161,445 or 30.89%,  when  compared to the same  quarter  ended
September 30, 2003.  Interest income totaling $836,698 was generated from loans,
including  fees,  during the quarter  ended  September  30, 2004, as compared to
$681,893 during the comparable period in 2003. Interest expense was $184,164 for
the quarter  ended  September  30,  2004,  as compared to $181,004  for the same
period in 2003. The net interest margin realized on earning assets was 4.59% for
the quarter  ended  September  30,  2004,  as compared to 4.36%  during the same
period in 2003.  The  interest  rate  spread  was 4.41%  for the  quarter  ended
September  30, 2004,  as compared to 4.13% for the quarter  ended  September 30,
2003.

Provision and Allowance for Loan Losses

The  provision  for  loan  losses  is the  charge  to  operating  earnings  that
management  believes is necessary to maintain the  allowance  for possible  loan
losses at an adequate  level.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2004, the
provision  charged to expense  was  $100,000 as compared to $96,000 for the nine
months ended  September 30, 2003. For the quarter ended  September 30, 2004, the
provision  charged to expense  was  $45,000 as  compared to $44,000 for the same
period in 2003.  The  allowance  represents  1.05%  and 1.00% of gross  loans at
September 30, 2004 and 2003,  respectively.  There are risks  inherent in making
all loans,  including  risks with respect to the period of time over which loans
may be repaid, risks resulting from changes in economic and industry conditions,
risks  inherent  in dealing  with  individual  borrowers,  and, in the case of a
collateralized  loan, risks resulting from uncertainties  about the future value
of the  collateral.  We maintain an  allowance  for loan losses  based on, among
other things, historical experience,  an evaluation of economic conditions,  and
regular reviews of delinquencies and loan portfolio quality.  Our judgment about
the adequacy of the allowance is based upon a number of assumptions about future
events,  which we  believe  to be  reasonable,  but  which  may not  prove to be
accurate.  Thus, there is a risk that charge-offs in future periods could exceed
the allowance for loan losses or that  substantial  additional  increases in the
allowance for loan losses could be required. Additions to the allowance for loan
losses would result in a decrease of our net income and, possibly, its capital.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income increased  $20,908,  or 5.33% to $412,855 for the nine months
ended  September  30, 2004 as compared to the same period  ended  September  30,
2003. The primary  source of this income was the increase in service  charges on
deposit  accounts of $48,569,  or 29.58%,  to $212,757 for the nine months ended
September 30, 2004,  when compared to the same period in 2003.  This increase is
attributable to an increase in deposit  accounts over the two periods as well as
an  increase  in  service  charges  and fees made  effective  May 15,  2004.  In
addition,  commissions  generated through our brokerage services totaled $74,949
for the nine months ended September 30, 2004.  Income from residential  mortgage
origination  fees decreased  $14,885 to $68,605 when compared to the same period
in 2003. This decrease is due to the decline in mortgage refinancing.

For the quarter ended September 30, 2004,  noninterest  income was $153,741,  an
increase of $9,978,  or 6.94% over the quarter  ended  September  30, 2003.  The
largest component of noninterest income was service charges on deposit accounts,
which totaled  $74,383 for the quarter ended  September 30, 2004, as compared to
$61,449 for the quarter ended  September  30, 2003.  This increase was due to an
overall increase in deposit accounts over the two periods as well as an increase
in service  charges and fees.  Income from  brokerage  fee  commissions  totaled
$29,949 for the quarter ended September 30, 2004.

Noninterest Expense

For  the  nine  months  ended  September  30,  2004,   noninterest  expense  was
$1,853,298,  an increase of $221,444, or 13.57% when compared to the same period
in 2003. The largest component of noninterest  expense was salaries and employee
benefits,  which increased from $890,563 for the nine months ended September 30,
2003 to $971,984 for the nine months ended  September 30, 2004.  The increase is
attributable to annual pay raises and the hiring of additional staff to meet the
needs associated with the growth of the bank,  including  personnel to staff our
new McBee Branch which officially  opened May 28, 2003.  Occupancy  expense also
increased from $101,630 for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 to $131,407
for the nine months ended  September 30, 2004. This increase is primarily due to
expenses associated with the new McBee Branch.

For the quarter ended September 30, 2004, noninterest expense increased $39,290,
or 6.69% as  compared to the  quarter  ended  September  30,  2003.  The largest
category of  noninterest  expense,  salaries  and employee  benefits,  increased
$11,786 or 3.79% from the quarter  ended  September 30, 2003 to $322,836 for the
quarter  ended  September  30, 2004.  As  discussed  earlier,  this  increase is
primarily  attributable to annual pay raises and the hiring of additional staff.
Occupancy  expense increased $5,041 from the quarter ended September 30, 2003 to
$44,828 for the quarter ended September 30, 2004. This increase is primarily due
to expenses associated with the McBee Branch.

Income Taxes

The income tax expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 was $141,322
as compared to $50,397 for the same period in 2003.  The  effective tax rate was
37.00% for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003. Income tax expense
was $61,218 for the quarter ended  September 30, 2004 as compared to $13,226 for
the same  quarter in 2003.  The  effective  tax rate was 37.00% for the quarters
ended September 30, 2004 and 2003.

Net Income

The combination of the above factors  resulted in net income for the nine months
ended  September  30,  2004 of $242,049 as compared to net income of $85,811 for
the same period in 2003.  The net income  before  taxes of  $383,371  was before
income tax expense of $141,322  during the nine months ended September 30, 2004.
The net income before taxes for the same period in 2003 was $136,208,  which was
partially  offset by the income tax  expense of $50,397.  For the quarter  ended
September 30, 2004, net income was $105,660, as compared to $22,519 for the same
period in 2003.

Assets and Liabilities

During the first nine months of 2004,  total  assets  increased  $7,175,041,  or
12.50%,  when  compared to December  31, 2003.  The primary  source of growth in
assets was in loans,  which increased  $5,201,322,  or 10.78%,  during the first
nine months of 2004.  Investment  securities  increased  $1,331,314 or 53.05% to
$3,840,816 at September 30, 2004. Total deposits also increased  $5,725,151,  or
11.35%,  from  $50,439,904  at December 31, 2003 to $56,165,055 at September 30,
2004. Savings accounts increased  $3,864,459 or 26.68% from December 31, 2004 to
September 30, 2004. This increase is mainly attributable to an increase in Money
Market Accounts from new business.  Interest-bearing  transaction  accounts also
increased  from  $5,283,574  at December 31, 2003 to $6,724,758 at September 30,
2004.

Investment Securities

Investment  securities  increased  from  $2,509,502  at  December  31,  2003  to
$3,840,815  at September  30, 2004.  This  increase was mainly  attributable  to
management's  effort to increase  liquidity by increasing the size of the Bank's
investment  portfolio.  All of the Bank's marketable  investment securities were
designated as available-for-sale at September 30, 2004.

Loans

We  continued  our  trend of  growth  during  the  first  nine  months  of 2004,
especially in the loan area. Net loans increased  $5,121,223,  or 10.71%, during
the period.  As shown below,  the main component of growth in the loan portfolio
was real  estate-mortgage  loans which  increased  21.49%,  or $6,764,510,  from
December  31,  2003 to  September  30,  2004.  This  was due to an  increase  in
commercial  real  estate  loans.  Balances  within  the major  loans  receivable
categories as of September 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003 are as follows:

Risk Elements in the Loan Portfolio

The following is a summary of risk elements in the loan portfolio:



                                                                                             September 30,        December 31,

Loans:  Nonaccrual loans ...........................................................           $ 21,827            $ 10,884
Accruing loans more than 90 days past due ..........................................           $  3,247            $  7,874
Loans identified by the internal review mechanism:
  Criticized .......................................................................           $425,090            $449,876
  Classified .......................................................................           $ 16,511            $ 17,009


Criticized  loans have  potential  weaknesses  that deserve close  attention and
could, if uncorrected, result in deterioration of the prospects for repayment or
the Bank's credit position at a future date.  Classified  loans are inadequately
protected  by the  sound  worth  and  paying  capacity  of the  borrower  or any
collateral and there is a distinct possibility or probability that the Bank will
sustain a loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

Note Payable

On  September  30,  2004 the Company  executed a note with The  Bankers  Bank to
borrow  $1,000,000.  The principal balance is payable  annually,  based on a ten
year  amortization  beginning  January 1, 2007.  The  interest  rate on the note
payable is variable and set equal to the Wall Street  Journal  Prime,  currently
4.75%.  Interest is paid quarterly  beginning January 1, 2005. All principal and
interest is due on September 30, 2016.  The note is secured by 560,270 shares of
the common  stock of  Hartsville  Community  Bank,  currently  held by  Regional
Bankshares,  Inc.  Proceeds  from the note were used to  provide  capital to the
Bank.

Advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank

Advances  from the Federal Home Loan Bank to us were  $2,250,000 as of September
30, 2004. Of this amount,  the following have scheduled  maturities greater than

Liquidity

Liquidity  needs are met by the Bank through  scheduled  maturities of loans and
investments on the asset side and through pricing policies on the liability side
for interest-bearing deposit accounts. The level of liquidity is measured by the
loan-to-total  borrowed  funds ratio,  which was at 89.98% at September 30, 2004
and 92.03% at December 31, 2003.

Securities  available-for-sale,  which totaled $3,626,863 at September 30, 2004,
serve as a ready  source  of  liquidity.  The  Bank  also  has  lines of  credit
available with  correspondent  banks to purchase  federal funds for periods from
one to seven  days.  At  September  30,  2004,  unused  lines of credit  totaled
$2,650,000.  We also have a line of credit to borrow funds from the Federal Home
Loan Bank up to 10% of the Bank's  total  assets,  which gave us the  ability to
borrow up to  $4,208,154 at September 30, 2004. As of September 30, 2004, we had
$2,250,000 in borrowings on this line.


Off-Balance Sheet Risk

Through the  operations of our Bank,  we have made  contractual  commitments  to
extend  credit  in  the  ordinary  course  of  our  business  activities.  These
commitments  are legally  binding  agreements  to lend money to our customers at
predetermined  interest  rates for a specified  period of time. At September 30,
2004,  we had issued  commitments  to extend  credit of  $7,029,245  and standby
letters  of  credit of  $20,000  through  various  types of  commercial  lending
arrangements.  We evaluate each customer's  credit  worthiness on a case-by-case
basis.  The  amount  of  collateral  obtained,  if deemed  necessary  by us upon
extension  of  credit,  is  based  on our  credit  evaluation  of the  borrower.
Collateral  varies but may include  accounts  receivable,  inventory,  property,
plant and equipment,  commercial and residential real estate. Historically, many
of  these  commitments  expire  unused  and the  total  amount  committed  as of
September 30, 2004 is not necessarily expected to be funded.

The  following  table sets forth the  length of time until  maturity  for unused
commitments  to extend  credit and standby  letters of credit at  September  30,

Critical Accounting Policies

We have adopted  various  accounting  policies  which govern the  application of
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States in the preparation
of our financial statements.  Our significant  accounting policies are described
in the notes to the  consolidated  financial  statements at December 31, 2003 as
filed in our annual report on Form 10-KSB.  Certain accounting  policies involve
significant  judgments and assumptions by us which have a material impact on the
carrying value of certain assets and  liabilities.  We consider these accounting
policies to be critical  accounting  policies.  The judgments and assumptions we
use are based on historical experience and other factors, which we believe to be
reasonable under the  circumstances.  Because of the nature of the judgments and
assumptions  we make,  actual  results  could  differ from these  judgments  and
estimates  which could have a material  impact on our carrying  values of assets
and liabilities and our results of operations.

We believe the  allowance for loan losses is a critical  accounting  policy that
requires the most significant judgments and estimates used in preparation of our
consolidated  financial  statements.  Refer to the  portions  of our 2003 Annual
Report on Form 10-KSB and this Form 10-QSB that addresses our allowance for loan
losses for a description of our processes and  methodology  for  determining our
allowance for loan losses.

Capital Resources

Total  shareholders'  equity  increased from  $4,727,896 at December 31, 2003 to
$5,008,935  at  September  30, 2004.  The  increase is due  primarily to the net
income  for the period of  $242,049.  There was also an  increase  of $3,800 and
$34,200  respectively  in capital stock and capital  surplus from warrants being
exercised.

The Federal  Reserve  Board and bank  regulatory  agencies  require bank holding
companies  and financial  institutions  to maintain  capital at adequate  levels
based on a percentage of assets and off-balance  sheet  exposures,  adjusted for
risk-weights ranging from 0% to 100%. Under the risk-based standard,  capital is
classified  into two  tiers.  Tier 1 capital  includes  of common  shareholders'
equity,  excluding the unrealized gain (loss) on available-for-sale  securities,
minus certain intangible assets.  Tier 2 capital includes of the general reserve
for loan losses  subject to certain  limitations.  An  institution's  qualifying
capital base for purposes of its risk-based capital ratio consists of the sum of
its Tier 1 and Tier 2 capital.  The regulatory  minimum  requirements are 4% for
Tier 1 and 8% for total risk-based capital.

Banks and bank  holding  companies  are also  required to maintain  capital at a
minimum level based on total assets,  which is known as the leverage ratio.  The
minimum  requirement  for the leverage  ratio is 3%; however all but the highest
rated  institutions are required to maintain ratios 100 to 200 basis point above
the minimum.  Both the Company and the Bank exceeded  their  minimum  regulatory
capital  ratios as of September  30, 2004 as well as the ratios to be considered
"well capitalized."

The following table  summarizes the Bank's  risk-based  capital at September 30,
2004:

Shareholders' equity .......................................        $ 5,938,237

Item 3.  Controls and Procedures.

Based  on  the  evaluation  required  by  17  C.F.R.  Section  240.13a-15(b)  or
240.15d-15(b) of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in
17  C.F.R.  Sections  240.13a-15(e)  and  240.15d-15(e)),  the  Company's  chief
executive  officer and chief financial  officer concluded that such controls and
procedures,  as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report,  were
effective.

There  has been no change  in the  Company's  internal  control  over  financial
reporting during the most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or
is reasonably likely to materially  affect,  the Company's internal control over
financial reporting.
