The financial statements include the accounts of Great Pee Dee Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") and its wholly-owned subsidiary, First Federal Savings and Loan Association of Cheraw ("First Federal" or the "Bank"). Operating results for the three and six month periods ended December 31, 1999 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2000. The organization and business of the Company, accounting policies followed by the Company and other information are contained in the notes to the financial statements filed as part of the Company's annual report on Form 10-KSB. This quarterly report should be read in conjunction with such annual report. NOTE B - NET INCOME PER SHARE Basic income per share has been computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, ESOP shares are only considered outstanding for earnings per share calculations when they are earned or committed to be released. Diluted net income per share reflects the dilutive effects of unearned recognition and retention shares and outstanding common stock options. NOTE C - ACQUISITION OF BRANCH OFFICE On November 5, 1999, the Company announced the signing of a definitive agreement by which First Federal will purchase from Coastal Federal Savings Bank its branch office located in Florence, South Carolina. The Coastal Federal Savings Bank branch office in Florence has total deposits of approximately $23 million. The purchase is expected to be completed during the first calendar quarter of 2000, pending regulatory approval and certain other conditions of closing. -6- Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- of Operations - ------------- Comparison of Financial Condition at December 31, 1999 and June 30, 1999 The Company's total assets increased by $4.4 million during the six months ended December 31, 1999, from $72.6 million at June 30, 1999 to $77.0 million at the period end. Substantially all of this asset growth consisted of net loans receivable, which increased from $64.4 million at June 30, 1999 to $68.2 million at December 31, 1999. An increase of $6.7 million in Federal Home Loan Bank advances, together with cash of $964,000 generated by operations, were the primary sources for funding of the increase in loans receivable and for stock repurchases during the six months. During the six months ended December 31, 1999, the Company purchased 211,676 treasury shares at a total cost of approximately $2.8 million. Total stockholders' equity was $27.5 million at December 31, 1999 as compared with $29.8 million at June 30, 1999, a decrease of $2.3 million which resulted principally from the purchase of treasury shares. At December 31, 1999, both the Company and the Bank continued to significantly exceed all applicable regulatory capital requirements. Comparison of Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended December 31, 1999 and 1998 Net Income. Net income for the quarter ended December 31, 1999 was $270,000, or $.15 per share, as compared with net income of $266,000, or $.13 per share, for the three months ended December 31, 1998, a net income increase of $4,000. This relatively small increase in net income resulted principally from an increase of $87,000 in net interest income after the provision for loan losses that was largely offset by the recognition during the current quarter of costs of $83,000 associated with the Recognition and Retention Plan ("RRP"). Net income per share increased because treasury share repurchases resulted in a reduction in the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Net Interest Income. Net interest income for the quarter ended December 31, 1999 was $796,000 as compared with $757,000 during the quarter ended December 31, 1998, an increase of $39,000. The Company's net interest margin increased from 2.22% during the quarter ended December 31, 1998 to 2.74% for the quarter ended December 31, 1999, as the weighted average yield on interest-earning assets increased by 20 basis points while the weighted average cost of interest- bearing liabilities decreased by 20 basis points. The increase in the weighted average yield resulted principally from a larger concentration of interest- earning assets in higher yielding loans, while the decrease in the weighted average cost of interest-bearing liabilities resulted from lower rates paid on customer deposit accounts. The effects of the increased margin, however, were largely offset by a decrease of $4.0 million in the average balance of net interest earning assets during the current quarter as compared with the corresponding quarter of the previous year. This decrease in net interest earning assets resulted principally from the purchase of treasury shares. Provision for Loan Losses. There was no provision for loan losses made during the quarter ended December 31, 1999, as compared with a provision of $48,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 1998. There were net loan charge-offs of $10,000 during the quarter ended December 31, 1999. At December 31, 1999, nonaccrual loans aggregated $208,000 while the allowance for loan losses stood at $444,000. -7- Non-Interest Expenses. Non-interest expenses increased to $393,000 during the quarter ended December 31, 1999 as compared with $300,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 1998, an increase of $93,000. Direct costs of $83,000 relating to the Company's RRP, adopted and implemented in January of 1999, were the largest single component of this overall expense increase. In addition, occupancy costs increased by $7,000, principally as a result of higher costs associated with the Bank's renovated office facilities and certain costs and expenses related to the Company's Year 2000 systems upgrades. Provision for Income Taxes. The provision for income taxes, as a percentage of income before income taxes, was 37.8% and 38.6% for the quarters ended December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. Comparison of Results of Operations for the Six months Ended December 31, 1999 and 1998 Net Income. Net income for the six months ended December 31, 1999 was $532,000, or $.30 per share, as compared with net income of $553,000, or $.27 per share, for the six months ended December 31, 1998, a net income decrease of $21,000. This decrease in net income resulted principally because an increase of $146,000 in net interest income after the provision for loan losses was more than offset by the recognition during the current six months of costs of $166,000 associated with the RRP. Net income per share increased because treasury share repurchases resulted in a reduction in the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Net Interest Income. Net interest income for the six months ended December 31, 1999 was $1.6 million as compared with $1.5 million during the six months ended December 31, 1998, an increase of $50,000. The Company's net interest margin increased from 2.17% during the six months ended December 31, 1998 to 2.62% for the six months ended December 31, 1999, as the weighted average yield on interest-earning assets increased by 6 basis points while the weighted average cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased by 31 basis points. The increase in the weighted average yield resulted principally from a larger concentration of interest-earning assets in higher yielding loans, while the decrease in the weighted average cost of interest-bearing liabilities resulted from lower rates paid on customer deposit accounts. The effects of the increased margin, however, were largely offset by a decrease of $3.7 million in the average balance of net interest earning assets during the current six months as compared with the corresponding six months of the previous year. This decrease in net interest earning assets resulted principally from the purchase of treasury shares. Provision for Loan Losses. There was no provision for loan losses made during the six months ended December 31, 1999, as compared with a provision of $96,000 for the six months ended December 31, 1998. There were net loan charge-offs of $10,000 during the six months ended December 31, 1999. At December 31, 1999, nonaccrual loans aggregated $208,000 while the allowance for loan losses stood at $444,000. Non-Interest Expenses. Non-interest expenses increased to $770,000 during the six months ended December 31, 1999 as compared with $558,000 for the six months ended December 31, 1998, an increase of $212,000. Direct costs of $166,000 relating to the Company's RRP, adopted and implemented in January of 1999, were the largest single component of this overall expense increase. In addition, occupancy costs increased by $18,000, principally as a result of higher costs associated with the Bank's renovated office facilities and certain costs and expenses related to the Company's Year 2000 systems upgrades. -8- Provision for Income Taxes. The provision for income taxes, as a percentage of income before income taxes, was 37.3% and 38.1% for the six months ended December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. Liquidity and Capital Resources The objective of the Company's liquidity management is to ensure the availability of sufficient cash flows to meet all financial commitments and to capitalize on opportunities for expansion. Liquidity management addresses First Federal's ability to meet deposit withdrawals on demand or at contractual maturity, to repay borrowings as they mature, and to fund new loans and investments as opportunities arise. The Company's primary sources of internally generated funds are principal and interest payments on loans receivable and cash flows generated from operations. External sources of funds include increases in deposits and advances from the FHLB of Atlanta. First Federal is required under applicable federal regulations to maintain specified levels of "liquid" investments in qualifying types of United States Government, federal agency and other investments having maturities of five years or less. Current OTS regulations require that a savings association maintain liquid assets of not less than 4% of its average daily balance of net withdrawable deposit accounts and borrowings payable in one year or less. Monetary penalties may be imposed for failure to meet applicable liquidity requirements. At December 31, 1999, First Federal's liquidity, as measured for regulatory purposes, was 9.5%, or $2.5 million in excess of the minimum OTS requirement. First Federal is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on First Federal's financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, First Federal must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of First Federal's assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. First Federal's capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. At December 31, 1999, First Federal's level of capital substantially exceeded all applicable requirements. Year 2000 Compliance Issues The Year 2000 issue has posed business risks to most business organizations, including the Company. In response, the Company formed a Year 2000 project team, consisting of senior officers within the Company's operations, information systems, financial and management areas, to ensure that the Company attained Year 2000 compliance. All date sensitive systems were evaluated for Year 2000 compliance, with complete upgrading and testing of systems completed well in advance of the Year 2000 date change. The Company also developed contingency plans for its computer processes, including the use of alternative systems and the manual processing of certain critical operations. In addition, the Company had undertaken extensive efforts to ensure that significant vendor and customer relationships are Year 2000 compliant. The Company's management is pleased, but not surprised, that business continued as normal without adverse impact to the Company during the critical date change. In coming months, the Bank will continue monitoring external entities to assure that they have not experienced any Year 2000 problems that could impact their relationship with the Company. -9- The Company estimates that its total Year 2000 compliance costs have aggregated approximately $175,000, including capital expenditures of approximately $141,000 and other expenses charged to operations of approximately $34,000. In addition to the estimated costs of its Year 2000 compliance, the Company routinely makes annual investments in technology in its efforts to improve customer service and to efficiently manage its product and service delivery systems -10- Part II.
