These comments highlight the significant events and should be considered in combination with the Consolidated Financial Statements included in this report on Form 10-Q. OVERVIEW Net income for the six months ended June 30, 1999, was $2,872,000, which was a decrease of $2,773,000, as compared with the six months ended June 30, 1998. This decrease was primarily attributable to the gain recognized for book purposes of $3,300,000, net of taxes, during the first quarter of 1998 as the result of the sale of a branch location. During the first quarter of 1999, the Company recognized a gain, net of taxes, of $293,000 from the sale of other real estate. The following schedule compares financial highlights for the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998: For the six months ended June 30, 1999 1998 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Net income per share $ 0.97 $ 1.91 Book value per share $25.40 $24.05 Return on average total assets 1.11% 2.46% Return on average shareholders' equity 7.73% 16.53% Allowance for loan losses as a % of loans, net of unearned discount 1.36% 1.61% Page 11 of 18 12 FINANCIAL CONDITION HELD TO MATURITY SECURITIES Held to maturity securities increased $38,407,000 at June 30, 1999, as compared with June 30, 1998, as a result of the management of the Company's liquidity position. As funds were available either from the maturity of available for sale securities or the increase in deposits, they were invested in short-term U.S. Treasury and U. S. Government Agency securities, which have been classified as held to maturity. Gross unrealized gains were $537,000 and $970,000 and gross unrealized losses were $1,143,000 and $143,000 at June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively. There were no significant realized gains or losses on these investments during the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

This fluctuation is directly related to the liquidity needs of the bank subsidiary. LOANS Loans increased $31,365,000 at June 30, 1999, as compared with June 30, 1998, as a result of increased loan demand in the Company's trade area. The Company anticipates that this increased demand will continue throughout the remainder of 1999. The allowance for loan losses decreased $232,000 due to net charge-offs during the six months ended June 30, 1999. Likewise, the allowance for loan losses as a % of loans, net of unearned discount, has decreased from 1.61% at June 30, 1998, to 1.36% at June 30, 1999. Management continues to monitor the volume and quality of its loan portfolio and has determined that the allowance is adequate. BANK PREMISES AND EQUIPMENT Bank premises and equipment increased $6,158,000 at June 30, 1999, as compared with June 30, 1998, as a result of the construction of two branch facilities during that time. OTHER REAL ESTATE Other real estate decreased $423,000 at June 30, 1999, as compared with June 30, 1998, as a result of the sale of ORE during 1999, as discussed in the Overview. OTHER ASSETS Other assets decreased $3,363,000 at June 30, 1999, as compared with June 30, 1998, primarily as the result of the completion of a like-kind exchange. The Company had sold one of its branch locations, such transaction having been structured as a like-kind exchange for tax purposes. At June 30, 1998, the Company had recorded a receivable of $4,037,000, which was related to the exchange and was collected during the third quarter of 1998. DEPOSITS Total deposits have increased $16,790,000 at June 30, 1999, as compared with June 30, 1998. Significant increases or decreases in total deposits are anticipated by Management as customers in the casino industry and county and municipal areas reallocate their resources periodically. As discussed above, the Company has managed its funds including planning the timing of investment maturities so as to achieve appropriate liquidity. FEDERAL FUNDS PURCHASED AND SECURITIES SOLD UNDER AGREEMENTS TO REPURCHASE Federal funds purchased and securities sold under agreements to repurchase increased $46,187,000 at June 30, 1999, as compared with June 30, 1998. This fluctuation is entirely due to the introduction of a new non-deposit product during the second quarter of 1998. SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY AND CAPITAL ADEQUACY Strength, security and stability have been the hallmark of the Company since its founding in 1985 and of its bank subsidiary since its founding in 1896. A strong capital foundation is fundamental to the continuing prosperity of the Company and the security of its customers and shareholders. One measure of capital adequacy is the primary capital ratio which was 15.34% at June 30, 1999, Page 13 of 18 14 as compared with 16.36% at June 30, 1998. the decrease at June 30, 1999, reflects the significant increase in total assets rather than the softening of the Company's capital. These ratios are well above the regulatory minimum of 6.00%. Management continues to emphasize the importance of maintaining the appropriate capital levels of the Company. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS NET INTEREST INCOME Net interest income, the amount by which interest income on loans, investments and other interest earning assets exceeds interest expense on deposits and other borrowed funds, is the single largest component of the Company's income. Management's objective is to provide the largest possible amount of income while balancing interest rate, credit, liquidity and capital risk. Net interest income increased $387,000 for the second quarter of 1999 as compared with the second quarter of 1998. Net interest income increased $290,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1999, as compared with the six months ended June 30, 1998. Total interest income increased $491,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 1999, as compared with the quarter ended June 30, 1998. Total interest income increased $610,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1999, as compared with the six months ended June 30, 1998. Total interest expense increased $104,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 1999, as compared with quarter ended June 30, 1998. Total interest expense increased $320,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1999, as compared with the six months ended June 30, 1998.

Page 15 of 18 16 PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES Management continuously monitors the Company's relationships with its loan customers, especially those in concentrated industries such as seafood, gaming and hotel/motel, and their direct and indirect impact on its operations. A thorough analysis of current economic conditions and the quality of the loan portfolio are conducted on a quarterly basis. These analyses are utilized in the computation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. During the period from 1993 until 1998, the Company had not recorded a provision for loan losses. Beginning in January 1999, the Company began providing $10,000 for loan losses on a monthly basis and expects to continue to do so throughout 1999. This action was implemented primarily in response to the large increase in volume of the loan portfolio and does not indicate a deterioration of its quality. SERVICE CHARGES ON DEPOSIT ACCOUNTS Service charges on deposit accounts increased $519,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1999, as compared with the six months ended June 30, 1998, as the result of an increase in off-site ATM's during 1999. OTHER INCOME During the six months ended June 30, 1998, the Company realized a gain of $5,083,000 for book purposes as the result of the sale of one of its branch locations, as mentioned previously in the Overview. SALARIES AND EMPLOYEE BENEFITS Salaries and employee benefits increased $517,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1999, as compared with the six months ended June 30, 1998, as the result in an increase in the cost of health insurance provided to employees as well as an increase in the number of employees during this time frame. OTHER EXPENSE Other expense decreased $729,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1999, as compared with the same period during 1998, largely as the result of expenses relating to the computer conversion during 1998. LIQUIDITY Liquidity represents the Company's ability to adequately provide funds to satisfy demands from depositors, borrowers and other commitments by either converting assets to cash or accessing new or existing sources of funds. Management monitors these funds requirements in such a manner as to satisfy these demands and provide the maximum earnings on its earning assets. Deposits, payments of principal and interest on loans, proceeds from maturities of investment securities and earnings on investment securities are the principal sources of funds for the Company. At June 30, 1999, cash and due from banks, investment securities and federal funds sold were 52% of total deposits, as compared with 46% at June 30, 1998. Page 16 of 18 17 YEAR 2000 In response to the Year 2000 issue, the Company has established a committee, headed by a senior officer of the Company, to review all computer-based systems which includes all operations departments and applications as well as other operational activities. The committee has developed and is in the process of implementing a plan of action, which has been approved by the Board of Directors, to ensure that its computer and information systems will function properly in the Year 2000. This plan incorporates the awareness, assessment, renovation, validation and implementation phases as directed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). Renovation of systems for Year 2000 compliance was completed by December 31, 1998. Testing of all mission critical systems was completed by June 30, 1999. The Company has budgeted for projected Year 2000 expenses, and the Company does not expect the costs of achieving Year 2000 compliance to have a material effect on the Company's financial statements. In the event of unforeseen Year 2000 problems, the Company has established a Year 2000 contingency plan, which includes all information technology and non-information technology systems. The Plan, which has been approved by the Board of Directors, also addresses potential Year 2000 issues relating to core application software, trust services software, ATM services, liquidity and other operational activities. While the Company has taken steps to ensure that its material vendors and customers are Year 2000 compliant, there is no guarantee that the systems of these other companies will be Year 2000 compliant on time. As a result, the Company could be adversely affected by the failure of other companies to become Year 2000 compliant. The potential impact of such a failure cannot be quantified at this time.
