Century Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiary
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
In management's opinion, the financial information, which is unaudited, reflects
all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) necessary
for a fair presentation of the financial information as of and for the three and
six months ended December 31, 1999 and 1998, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles. The financial statements include the accounts of
Century Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Home
Savings, Inc., SSB ("Home Savings" or the "Bank"). Operating results for the
three and six months 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 consolidated
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
Net 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, management recognition
plan shares and employee stock ownership plan shares are only considered
outstanding for the basic earnings per share calculations when they are earned
or committed to be released. Outstanding options and unearned shares in the
management recognition plan had no dilutive effect for the three and six months
ended December 31, 1999.
NOTE C - COMPREHENSIVE INCOME
For the three months ended December 31, 1999 and 1998, total comprehensive
income, consisting of net income and unrealized securities gains and losses, net
of taxes, was $160,000 and $352,000, respectively, and for the six months ended
December 31, 1999 and 1998, $343,000 and $642,000, respectively.

Item 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
of Operations
-------------
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB may contain certain forward-looking
statements consisting of estimates with respect to the financial condition,
results of operations and business of the Company that are subject to various
factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from these
estimates. These factors include, but are not limited to, general economic
conditions, changes in interest rates, deposit flows, loan demand, real estate
values, and competition; changes in accounting principles, policies, or
guidelines; changes in legislation or regulation; and other economic,
competitive, governmental, regulatory, and technological factors affecting the
Company's operations, pricing, products and services.
Comparison of Financial Condition at December 31, 1999 and June 30, 1999
Consolidated total assets remained stable during the six months, increasing by
$485,000 from $93.7 million at June 30, 1999 to $94.2 million at December 31,
1999. Loan growth, however, has been strong, as net loans have grown by $3.9
million, from $75.6 million at June 30, 1999 to $79.5 million at December 31,
1999. During the six month period, reductions of $1.2 million and $1.1 million,
respectively, in investment securities available for sale and investment
securities held to maturity, together with proceeds of $2.0 million from Federal
Home Loan Bank advances, were the principal sources of funding for the growth in
loans.
Total stockholders' equity was $17.6 million at December 31, 1999, as compared
with $17.7 million at June 30, 1999, a decrease of $69,000. Stockholders'
equity was increased during the six months as a result of net income of $468,000
and amortization of unearned compensation aggregating $282,000. These increases
were offset, however, by the regular quarterly dividends aggregating $328,000 or
$.34 per share, share repurchases aggregating $363,000, and a decrease of
$128,000 in the net unrealized gain on available for sale investment securities.
At December 31, 1999, both the Holding 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 $226,000 or
$.24 per share, as compared with net income of $219,000, or $.20 per share, for
the three months ended December 31, 1998. While net income did not increase
significantly, net income per share increased by $.04 as a result of a lower
level of weighted average shares outstanding during the current quarter. This
decrease in shares outstanding is attributable to a share repurchase plan that
commenced during the second quarter of the fiscal year that ended June 30, 1999.
Net Interest Income. Net interest income was $776,000 for the quarter ended
December 31, 1999 as compared with $767,000 for the corresponding quarter of the
previous fiscal year, an increase of $9,000. Principally as a result of
repurchases of the Company's common stock, the average balance of net interest
earning assets (average interest earning assets minus average interest bearing
liabilities) decreased from approximately $16.6 during the three months ended
December 31, 1998 to approximately $15.0 during the three months ended December
31, 1999. However, this decrease in net interest earning assets was offset by
an increase of 20 basis points in the Company's net interest margin, producing
the net interest income increase set forth above.
-7-
Provision for Loan Losses. The provision for loan losses was $5,000 and $4,000,
respectively, for the quarters ended December 31, 1999 and 1998. There were no
loan charge-offs during either period. Nonaccrual loans aggregated $238,000 at
December 31, 1999, while the allowance for loan losses totaled $577,000 at that
date.
General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses
decreased to $430,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 1999 as compared with
$443,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 1998, a reduction of $13,000. An
increase of $12,000 in compensation costs was offset by reductions of $3,000 and
$21,000, respectively, in data processing and other expenses.
Provision for Income Taxes. The provision for income taxes, as a percentage of
income before income taxes, was 36.0% and 33.8% for the three months 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 $468,000
or $.48 per share, as compared with net income of $461,000, or $.42 per share,
for the six months ended December 31, 1998. While net income did not increase
significantly, net income per share increased by $.06 as a result of a lower
level of weighted average shares outstanding during the current six months.
This decrease in shares outstanding is attributable to a share repurchase plan
that commenced during the second six months of the fiscal year that ended June
30, 1999.
Net Interest Income. Net interest income was $1.6 million for the six months
ended December 31, 1999 as compared with $1.5 million for the corresponding six
months of the previous fiscal year, an increase of $35,000. Principally as a
result of repurchases of the Company's common stock, the average balance of net
interest earning assets (average interest earning assets minus average interest
bearing liabilities) decreased from approximately $17.3 during the six months
ended December 31, 1998 to approximately $15.2 during the six months ended
December 31, 1999. However, this decrease in net interest earning assets was
offset by an increase of 24 basis points in the Company's net interest margin,
producing the net interest income increase set forth above.
Provision for Loan Losses. The provision for loan losses was $9,000 and $9,000,
respectively, for the six months ended December 31, 1999 and 1998. There were
no loan charge-offs during either period. Nonaccrual loans aggregated $238,000
at December 31, 1999, while the allowance for loan losses totaled $577,000 at
that date.
General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses
increased to $854,000 for the six months ended December 31, 1999 as compared
with $851,000 for the six months ended December 31, 1998, an increase of $3,000.
An increase of $41,000 in compensation costs was offset by reductions of $9,000
and $27,000, respectively, in data processing and other expenses.
Provision for Income Taxes. The provision for income taxes, as a percentage of
income before income taxes, was 36.2% and 34.0 % 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 Home
Savings' 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.
Home Savings' primary sources of internally generated funds are principal and
interest payments on loans receivable, cash flows generated from operations, and
repayments of mortgage-backed securities. External sources of funds include
increases in deposits and advances from the FHLB of Atlanta.
As a North Carolina-chartered savings bank, Home Savings must maintain liquid
assets equal to at least 10% of assets. The computation of liquidity under North
Carolina regulations allows the inclusion of mortgage-backed securities and
investments with readily marketable value, including investments with maturities
in excess of five years. Home Savings' liquidity ratio at December 31, 1999, as
computed under North Carolina regulations, was approximately 12.3%. On a
consolidated basis, liquid assets represented 13.4% of total assets. Management
believes that it will have sufficient funds available to meet its anticipated
future loan commitments as well as other liquidity needs.
As a North Carolina-chartered savings bank, Home Savings is subject to the
capital requirements of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") and
the North Carolina Administrator of Savings Institutions ("N. C.
Administrator"). The FDIC requires state-chartered savings banks to have a
minimum leverage ratio of Tier I capital (principally consisting of common
shareholders' equity, noncumulative perpetual preferred stock, and a limited
amount of cumulative perpetual preferred stock, less certain intangible assets)
to total assets of at least 3%; provided, however, that all institutions, other
than those (i) receiving the highest rating during the examination process and
(ii) not anticipating or experiencing any significant growth, are required to
maintain a ratio of 1% or 2% above the state minimum. The FDIC also requires
Home Savings to have a ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets of at
least 8%, of which at least 4% must be comprised of Tier I capital. The N. C.
Administrator requires a net worth equal to at least 5% of total assets. At
December 31, 1999, Home Savings exceeded the capital requirements of both the
FDIC and the N. C. Administrator.
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 $28,000, including capital expenditures of approximately $5,000
and other expenses charged to operations of approximately $23,000. 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.
