-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 nine month periods ended September 30, 2001 and 2000, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of South Street Financial Corp. (the "Company") and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Home Savings Bank of Albemarle, S.S.B., ("Home Savings" or the "Bank"), the Bank's wholly-owned subsidiary, South Street Development Corporation ("SSDC"), and SSDC's wholly-owned subsidiary, Park Ridge Associates, LLC ("Park Ridge"). During 2000, SSDC became the sole owner of Park Ridge by purchasing the 50% interest in Park Ridge that was previously held by a third party. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Operating results for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2001. 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 2000 annual report on Form 10-K. This quarterly report should be read in conjunction with such annual report. NOTE B - NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 141, Business Combinations, and SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. SFAS No. 141 requires that all business combinations entered into after June 30, 2001 be accounted for under the purchase method. SFAS No. 142 requires that all intangible assets, including goodwill that results from business combinations, be periodically (at least annually) evaluated for impairment, with any resulting impairment loss being charged against earnings. Also, under SFAS No. 142, goodwill resulting from any business combination accounted for according to SFAS No. 141 will not be amortized, and the amortization of goodwill related to business combinations entered into prior to June 30, 2001 will be discontinued effective, for the Company, January 1, 2002. The adoption of the provisions of SFAS No. 141 and SFAS No. 142, effective January 1, 2002, is not expected to affect the Company's financial statements. NOTE C - EARNINGS PER SHARE The Company's basic earnings per share for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2001 is based on net income earned divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding from the beginning of the period to the end of the period. Diluted earnings per share is adjusted for all potential common stock instruments having a dilutive effect. For purposes of this computation, the number of shares of common stock purchased by the ESOP which have not been allocated to participant accounts are not assumed to be outstanding. -6- South Street Financial Corp. and Subsidiary Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTE D - DIVIDENDS DECLARED On September 21, 2001, the Company's Board of Directors declared a dividend of $.10 per share for shareholders of record as of October 2, 2001 and payable on October 12, 2001. In addition, on June 18, 2001, the Board of Directors of the Bank declared an upstream dividend of $312,000 to the Company. NOTE E - BORROWINGS Borrowings, which consist solely of advances from the FHLB, totaled $21.0 million at September 30, 2001 and $16.0 million at December 31, 2000. The weighted average interest rate of the advances at September 30, 2001 was 5.16%. The advances mature at varying dates from 2001 through 2003. -7- 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 conditions; 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 September 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000 Total consolidated assets increased by $15.5 million or 7.8% to $213.8 million at September 30, 2001 from $198.3 million at December 31, 2000. This increase resulted primarily from an increase in loans receivable of $15.3 million, from $152.5 million at December 31, 2000 to $167.8 million at September 30, 2001. This increase in loans was funded by increases in deposits and FHLB advances of $10.1 million and $5.0 million, respectively, during the same period. The Bank has guaranteed the repayment of the ESOP's note payable to the Company, which it incurred on October 2, 1996 in order to purchase 359,720 shares of stock in the Company. The Company's note receivable from the ESOP totaled $2.7 million at September 30, 2001 and is reported as a reduction of stockholders' equity. Retained earnings decreased by $182,000 to $19.4 million at September 30, 2001. Net income for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2001 of $655,000 was offset by the dividends to shareholders during the period of $837,000. Common stock and unearned compensation decreased by $516,000 to $6.9 million at September 30, 2001 from $7.4 million at December 31, 2000. The decrease was primarily attributable to the repurchase of 67,900 shares of outstanding common stock in the amount of $441,000. As a North Carolina chartered stock savings bank, the Bank is required to meet various capital standards established by federal and state banking agencies. At September 30, 2001, the Company's stockholders' equity amounted to $23.7 million, or 11.1% of total assets and exceeds all regulatory capital requirements. The Bank's level of nonperforming loans, defined as loans past due 90 days or more, was $628,000 and $439,000 at September 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000, respectively. During the nine month period ended September 30, 2001, the Bank's level of nonperforming loans remained consistently low in relation to prior periods and to total loans outstanding. Based on their analysis, management determined that no loan loss provisions were necessary during the nine months ended September 30, 2001 and 2000. Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2001 and 2000 General. Net income for the three-month period ended September 30, 2001 was $265,000, or $131,000 more than the $134,000 earned during the same period in 2000. Interest income. Interest income increased by $244,000 from $3.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2000 to $3.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2001. The increase was primarily attributable to the increased volume in interest-earning assets during the quarter. -8- Interest expense. Interest expense on deposits and borrowed funds increased by $149,000 from $2.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2000 to $2.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2001. This increase is due to the increases in deposits and FHLB advances during the three months ended September 30, 2001. Net interest income. Net interest income increased by $95,000 from $1.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2000 to $1.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2001. This increase resulted from the factors discussed above. Provision for loan losses. There were no provisions for loan losses charged to income during the three months ended September 30, 2001 and 2000. Loans are charged against the allowance when management believes that collectibility is unlikely. The decision to increase or decrease the provision and resulting allowances is based upon an evaluation of both prior loan loss experience and other factors, such as changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, overall portfolio quality, and current economic conditions. The Bank's level of nonperforming loans has remained consistently low in relation to prior periods, and total loans outstanding and the Bank's loan charge-offs during the three months ended September 30, 2001 and 2000 were minimal. At September 30, 2001, the Bank's allowance for loan losses amounted to $429,000, which management believes is adequate to absorb losses inherent in its loan portfolio. Non-interest income. The Company earned non-interest income of $44,000 for both of the three months ended September 30, 2001 and 2000. Non-interest expense. Non-interest expense totaled $1.1 million and $1.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2001 and 2000, respectively. This decrease resulted primarily from a decrease in compensation expense of $165,000 due largely to expense associated with the management recognition plan in the three months ended September 30, 2000. The management recognition plan became fully vested prior to 2001; therefore, there was no related expense included in the quarter ended September 30, 2001. Comparison of Operating Results for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2001 and 2000 General. Net income for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2001 was $655,000, or $182,000 more than the $473,000 earned during the same period in 2000. Interest income. Interest income increased by $847,000 from $10.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 to $11.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2001. The increase was primarily attributable to the increased volume in interest-earning assets during the nine-month period. Interest expense. Interest expense on deposits and borrowed funds increased by $1.0 million from $5.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 to $6.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2001. This increase is due to the increases in deposits and FHLB advances during the nine months ended September 30, 2001. Net interest income. Net interest income decreased by $178,000 from $4.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 to $4.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2001. This decrease resulted from the factors discussed above. Provisions for loan losses. There were no provisions for loan losses charged to income during the nine months ended September 30, 2001 and 2000. -9- Loans are charged against the allowance when management believes that collectibility is unlikely. The decision to increase or decrease the provision and resulting allowances is based upon an evaluation of both prior loan loss experience and other factors, such as changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, overall portfolio quality, and current economic conditions. The Bank's level of nonperforming loans has remained consistently low in relation to prior periods, and total loans outstanding and the Bank's loan charge-offs during the nine months ended September 30, 2001 and 2000 were minimal. At September 30, 2001, the Bank's allowance for loan losses amounted to $429,000, which management believes is adequate to absorb losses inherent in its loan portfolio. Non-interest income. The Company earned non-interest income of $200,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2001 compared to the $63,000 that was earned during the same period in 2000. This increase in non-interest income of $137,000 was primarily attributable to an increase in service charges and fees of $71,000 from $86,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 to $157,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2001. In addition, noninterest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 included a loss on the sale of investment securities of $84,000. There were no such losses during the nine months ended September 30, 2001. Non-interest expense. Non-interest expense decreased by $335,000 from $3.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 to $3.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2001. This decrease resulted primarily from a decrease in compensation expense of $340,000 due largely to expense associated with the management recognition plan in the nine months ended September 30, 2000. The management recognition plan became fully vested prior to 2001; therefore, there was no related expense included in the period ended September 30, 2001. Liquidity and Capital Resources The term "liquidity" generally refers to an organization's ability to generate adequate amounts of funds to meet its needs for cash. More specifically, for financial institutions, liquidity ensures that adequate funds are available to meet deposit withdrawals, fund loan and capital expenditure commitments, maintain reserve requirements, pay operating expenses, and provide funds for debt service, dividends to stockholders, and other institutional commitments. Funds are primarily provided through financial resources from operating activities, expansion of the deposit base, borrowings, through the sale or maturity of investments, the ability to raise equity capital, or maintenance of shorter term interest-bearing deposits. As a state chartered stock savings bank, the Bank must meet certain liquidity requirements that are established by the N. C. Administrator of the Savings Institutions Division. The Bank's liquidity ratio at September 30, 2001, as computed under such regulations, was considerably in excess of such requirements. Given its excess liquidity and its ability to borrow from the FHLB of Atlanta, the Bank believes that it will have sufficient funds available to meet anticipated future loan commitments, unexpected deposit withdrawals, or other cash requirements. The FDIC requires the Bank to have a minimum leverage ratio of Tier I Capital (principally consisting of retained earnings and any common stockholders' equity, less any intangible assets) to all assets of at least 3%, provided that it receives the highest rating during the examination process. For institutions that receive less than the highest rating, the Tier I capital requirement is 1% to 2% above the stated minimum. The FDIC also requires the Bank to have a ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets of 8%, of which at least 4% must be in the form of Tier I capital. The Administrator requires a net worth equal to at least 5% of total assets. The Bank complied with all of the capital requirements of both the FDIC and the Administrator at September 30, 2001. -10- Inflation and Changing Prices The financial statements and accompanying footnotes have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, which require the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars without consideration for changes in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. The assets and liabilities of the Company are primarily monetary in nature and changes in market interest rates have a greater impact on the Company's performance than do the effects of inflation. -11- Part II.
