NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. In the opinion of management of the Registrant, the accompanying Consolidated
Financial Statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal
recurring items) necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial
position of the Registrant as of June 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998, the
results of operations and cash flows for the six month periods ended June 30,
1999 and 1998, and the changes in shareholders' equity for the six month
periods ended June 30, 1999 and 1998.
2. The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 1999 are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
3. The accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes
thereto should be read in conjunction with the Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements and the notes included therein, for the fiscal year-end
1998, included in the Registrant's 1998 Annual Report.
4. During the second quarter of 1999, the Bank transferred securities from the
held to maturity portfolio to the available for sale portfolio in accordance
with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133,
Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. At the date of
transfer, these securities had an amortized cost of $6,010,847 and increased
the unrealized gain on securities available for sale and shareholders' equity
by $125,575, net of tax of $64,689.
5. Management determines the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses based on
an evaluation of the loan portfolio, recent loss experience, historical
performance, current economic conditions, current analyses of asset quality
and other pertinent factors. Non-performing loans are defined as all loans
which are accounted for as non-accrual; loans 90 days or more past due and
still accruing interest; or loans which have been renegotiated due to the
borrowers' inability to comply with the original terms. As of June 30, 1999,
non-performing loans totaled $36,000 or .04% of total loans. This represents
a decrease of $337,000 from the $373,000 balance at December 31, 1998.

Item 2. Management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results
of operations
The following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of
operations provides additional information to assess the Consolidated
Financial Statements of the Registrant and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.
Capital Directions, Inc. is a one-bank holding company which commenced
operations on July 22, 1988. This was facilitated by the acquisition of
100% of the outstanding shares of Mason State Bank in an exchange of common
stock. The Company and its subsidiaries provide banking and financial
services in the banking industry. Substantially all revenue and services
are derived from banking products and services. The Bank's primary services
include accepting retail deposits and making residential, consumer and
commercial loans.
The corporation is not aware of any market or institutional trends, events
or circumstances that will have or are reasonably likely to have a material
effect on liquidity, capital resources, or results of operations except as
discussed herein.

Financial Condition (In thousands)
Assets totaled $103,243 at June 30, 1999. The 3.0% increase of $3,014 from
$100,229 at December 31, 1998 resulted primarily from continued strong
growth in mortgage lending. This growth was supported largely by an
increase in Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings.
Cash and cash equivalents have decreased $949 or 28.58% in the six month
period from December 31, 1998 to June 30, 1999. This is a result of
reducing excess available funds which are normally sold as an overnight
investment of federal funds.
Total outstanding loans have increased $5,434 during the first six months
of 1999. This is an increase of 6.63% from December 31, 1998. The majority
of this growth has been in the residential real estate portfolio. All new
loans booked in 1999 have been held within the loan portfolio. As
additional demand for real estate lending is realized, management may
consider selling newly issued loans on the secondary market.
The allowance for loan losses increased $15 or 1.48% during the six month
period ending June 30, 1999. At June 30, 1999 the allowance as a percent of
outstanding loans was 1.17% compared to 1.23% at December 31, 1998.
Management continues to maintain the allowance for loan losses at a level
considered appropriate to absorb losses inherent in the portfolio.
Total deposits as of June 30, 1999 compared to year-end 1998 decreased
$2,222 or 3.07%. The largest portion of this decline was concentrated in
interest bearing accounts. Average total deposits have increased $3,985 or
5.88% since year-end 1998.
Total shareholders' equity increased $449 or 4.01% in the first six months
of 1999. Net income of $709, stock transactions from the exercise of
options of $22 and net unrealized gains on available for sale securities of
$47 have increased shareholders' equity, while dividends of $329 reduced
shareholders' equity. Book value per share was $19.21 at June 30, 1999
compared to $18.48 at December 31, 1998.
Results of Operations (In thousands)
For the second quarter of 1999 and 1998 net income totaled $357 and $320,
respectively. During the six month periods of 1999 and 1998, net income
totaled $709 and $623, respectively. The increases in earnings during these
periods are principally the result of increases in net interest income.
These increases in revenue were partially offset by increases in non
interest expense, the provision for loan losses and income tax expense.
Basic earnings per share for the year to date were $1.19, and diluted
earnings per share were $1.18, compared to $1.05, and $1.04 for the same
period in 1998. For the second quarter of 1999 basic earnings per share
were $0.60, and diluted earnings per share were $0.59, compared to $0.54
and $0.53 for the same period of 1998. Average earning assets increased to
$97,387 or 20.40% from June 30, 1998 to June 30, 1999. The average yield on
earning assets decreased to 7.86% for the period ended June 30, 1999 from
8.31% for the comparable period in 1998. Average costs for rate related
liabilities decreased 22 basis points to 3.81% at June 30, 1999 from 4.03%
at June 30, 1998. Net interest margin decreased to 4.30% for the first six
months of 1999 compared to 4.63% in the same period of 1998. This is a
result of a lower rate environment.
The provision for loan losses was $9 during the second quarter of 1999
compared to $(9) for the same period of 1998. For the six months ended June
30, the provision was $18 in 1999 compared to $(17) in 1998. This increase
is consistent with the growth of the loan portfolio.
Non interest income decreased $10 or 6.13% during the second quarter of
1999 when compared to the second quarter of 1998. Decreases in loan
servicing income, investment center income, service charge income and
change in cash value on life insurance contributed to this decline.
Increases in ATM fee income partially offset this decline. Non interest
income for the six month period ended June 30, 1999
7
10
increased $5 or 1.76% when compared to 1998. The 1998 totals included a
loss of $18 incurred on investment securities. Decreases in loan servicing
income, investment center income, cash value on life insurance and deposit
service charges impacted year-to-date earnings. ATM income partially offset
these decreases.
Non interest expense increased $30 or 4.87% when comparing the second
quarter of 1999 to 1998. Most of this increase is a result of increased
data processing costs, consulting fees and correspondent service charges.
Decreased expenses were realized for salaries and employee benefits. For
the six months ended June 30, 1999 non interest expense increased $39 or
3.16% compared to the same period in 1998. Salaries and benefits declined
$31 or 4.47% as well as marketing expenses, which declined $9 or 36%.
Increases were realized in data processing, consulting fees, supplies and
correspondent fees.
The federal income tax provision for the second quarter of 1999 was $154,
up from $22 for the same period in 1998. Year-to-date the income tax
provision has increased by $48 or 18.9%. This increase reflects a higher
taxable income for 1999.
Liquidity and interest rate risk
The primary objective of asset/liability management is to assure the
maintenance of adequate liquidity and maximize net interest income by
maintaining appropriate maturities and balances between interest sensitive
earning assets and interest bearing liabilities. Liquidity management
ensures sufficient funds are maintained to meet the cash withdrawal
requirements of depositors and the credit demand of borrowers.
Sources of liquidity include federal funds sold, investment security
maturities and principal payments. A net average balance of $497,000 in
federal funds sold was maintained during the second quarter of 1999. As a
member of the Federal Home Loan Bank system, the Bank has access to an
alternate funding source, lower cost for credit services, and an additional
tool to manage interest rate risk. During the first six months of 1999, the
Bank used this source of funding to offset new mortgage loan demand. Other
sources of liquidity include internally generated cash flow, repayments and
maturities of loans, borrowing and normal deposit growth. The primary
source of funds for the parent company is the upstream of dividends from
the Bank. Management believes these sources of liquidity are sufficient for
the Bank and parent company to continue current business plans.
At June 30, 1999 the securities available for sale were valued at
$9,640,000. It is not anticipated that management will use these funds due
to the optional sources that may be available.
Interest rate sensitivity management seeks to maximize net interest margin
through periods of changing interest rates. The Bank develops strategies to
assure desired levels of interest sensitive assets and interest bearing
liabilities mature or reprice within selected time frames.
Strategies include the use of variable rate loan products in addition to
managing deposit accounts and maturities in the investment portfolio. The
following table, using recommended regulatory standards, reflects the "rate
sensitive position" or the difference between loans and investments, and
liabilities that mature or reprice within the next year and beyond. The
financial industry has generally referred to this difference as "GAP" and
its handling as "GAP Management". Throughout the second quarter of 1999,
the results of the GAP analysis were within the Bank's policy guidelines.
At June 30, 1999, the percentage of rate sensitive assets to rate sensitive
liabilities within the one-year time horizon was 75%.
The following table shows the Corporation's GAP position as of June 30,
1999. The Corporation has a liability sensitive position of approximately
$10,064,000 which indicates higher net interest income may be earned if
rates decrease during the period. Due to the limitations of GAP analysis,
modeling is also used to enhance measurement and control.

Capital Resources
The Corporation's capital adequacy is reviewed continuously to ensure that
sufficient capital is available to meet current and future funding needs
and comply with regulatory requirements. Shareholders' equity, excluding
the net unrealized gain on securities available for sale, increased
$402,000 or 3.67% to $11,357,000 for the first six months of 1999. This
represents 11.00% of total assets. At June 30, 1998, the similar ratio of
shareholders' equity to total assets was 10.93%. Dividends declared per
common share increased by 30.95% to $.55 per share in 1999 compared to $.42
in 1998.
Regulators established "risk-based" capital guidelines that became
effective December 31, 1990. Under the guidelines, minimum capital levels
are established for risk based and total assets based on perceived risk in
asset categories and certain off-balance sheet items, such as loan
commitments and standby letters of credit. On June 30, 1999, the Bank has a
"risk-based" total capital to asset ratio of 17.62%. The ratio exceeds the
requirements established by regulatory agencies as shown below.
Capital June 30, 1999
(Dollars in thousands) Risk-based Leverage
Actual amount $12,309 $11,283
Actual percentage 17.62% 10.86%
Required amount $ 5,514 $ 4,157
Required percentage 8.00% 4.00%
Excess amount $ 6,795 $ 7,126
Bank management does not perceive that future rate changes or inflation
will have a material impact on capital adequacy. It is the opinion of
management that capital and shareholders' equity is adequate and will
continue to be so throughout 1999.
Impact of Year 2000 compliance
The approach of the Year 2000 presents potential problems to businesses
that utilize computer systems in their daily operations. Some computer
systems may not be able to properly interpret dates after December 31,
1999, as they may use only two digits to indicate the year. Thus, a date
using "00" as the year may be recognized as the year 1900 rather than the
year 2000.
Capital Directions, Inc. has been working since 1997 to verify that our
systems are ready for year 2000, or Y2K. A team of bank professionals meet
on a regular basis to work through the phases of the bank's Y2K plan and
status updates are made quarterly to the Board of Directors. As outlined in
the plan, the scope of the year 2000 project includes the compliance of all
operating systems and hardware on all platforms in the areas of both
information and non-information technology.
All of our critical systems have been renovated, tested and returned to
production. Throughout 1999 we will continue testing our systems. This will
include participation in industry-wide tests, as well as tests with our
business partners, to verify that information can flow back and forth
between our companies' systems. In addition, we have developed detailed
contingency plans to cope with the unexpected. We fully expect the year
2000 to be business as usual.
We have hosted several Y2K community outreach programs and will continue
throughout 1999. Our desire is to inform customers and consumers not only
as to the bank's Y2K status; but, also to provide information on the
banking industry as a whole, as well as to provide information to consumers
on such services as power, telecommunications, local government, emergency
services and Y2K fraud awareness.
Capital Directions expects to spend approximately $45,000 associated with
the year 2000; 80% of which can be attributed to salaries. The corporation
earnings have been adequate to handle year 2000

Impact of Year 2000 compliance (continued)
expenditures with no delay to other capital expenditures. It is difficult
to predict exact expenses associated with the year 2000 issue and
additional funds may be needed for unknown expenses that may occur.
All customers that have a borrowing or deposit relationship in excess of
$250,000 have been interviewed and an evaluation of their year 2000
preparedness has been completed. All material customers are making good
progress on their year 2000 plans. The corporation does not expect to
experience credit deterioration due to the year 2000 issue. The corporation
may face a liquidity risk if the public perceives liquidity risk involved
with the year 2000 and withdraws funds from the banking system. The
corporation has established lines of credit to handle this uncertainty.
No one can predict with absolute certainty the outcome of any event.
However, due to our program, early recognition of the issues and
commitment, customers can be confident that our thorough preparation will
enable our computer systems to continue to meet their financial needs.
