NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION - ------------------------------ The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and item 310(b) of Regulation S-B of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. However, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. NOTE 2 - NET INCOME PER SHARE - ----------------------------- Net income per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings per Share". The Bank does not have any instruments which are dilutive; therefore, only basic net income per share of common stock is presented. NOTE 3 - ORGANIZATION - --------------------- Darlington County Bancshares, Inc. (the "Company"), was organized in July 1999 for the purpose of being a holding company for Darlington County Bank (the "Bank"). On July 1, 1999, pursuant to a Plan of Exchange approved by the shareholders, all of the outstanding shares of capital stock of the Bank were exchanged for shares of common stock of the Company. A par value conversion of $788,000 was recorded to reflect a change in the par value of common stock from $5.00 per share to $.01 per share. The Company presently engages in no business other than that of owning the Bank and has no employees. Reporting periods presented earlier than July 1, 1999 include the operations of Darlington County Bank only. ITEM 2. - ------- MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes appearing in the 1999 Annual Report of Darlington County Bancshares, Inc. Results of operations for the three months ending March 31, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be attained for any other period. The following information may contain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. The Company's actual results may differ materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The Company's net income for the first quarter of 2000 was $115,000 or $.73 per share as compared to $107,000 or $.68 per share for the first quarter of 1999. NET INTEREST INCOME Net interest income is the difference between the interest earned on earning assets and the interest paid for funds acquired to support to support those assets. Net interest income, the principal source of the Bank's earnings, was $354,000 and $360,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. (Continued) -6- ITEM 2: (CONTINUED) - ------------------- Changes that affect net interest income are changes in the average rate earned on interest-earning assets, changes in the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities, and changes in the volume of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Interest-earning assets for the first quarter of 2000 decreased by $1,534,000 or 5.84% over the same period in 1999, while interest-bearing liabilities decreased by $1,388,000 or 5.49% comparing the first quarter of 2000 with the first quarter of 1999. AVERAGE BALANCES, INCOME AND EXPENSES, AND RATES FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2000 1999 ------------------------------------------- AVERAGE INCOME/ ANNUALIZED AVERAGE INCOME/ ANNUALIZED BALANCE EXPENSE YIELD/RATE BALANCE EXPENSE YIELD/RATE ------------- ------------- ------------ ------------- ------------- ------------ Federal funds sold $ 2,862,857 $ 43,000 6.01% $ 4,806,666 $ 57,000 4.74% Investment securities 6,130,894 92,000 6.00% 6,230,479 95,000 6.10% Loans 16,599,662 389,000 9.37% 15,795,016 387,000 9.80% ------------- ------------- -------- ---------- ------------- --------- Total earning assets $ 25,593,413 524,000 8.19% $ 26,832,161 539,000 8.04% ============= ============= Total interest bearing liabilities $ 24,874,120 170,000 2.73% $ 25,747,352 179,000 2.78% ============= ------------- -------- ============= ------------- --------- Net interest spread 5.46% 5.35% Net interest income/margin $ 354,000 5.53% $ 360,000 5.43% ============= ==== ============= ==== As reflected above, for the first three months of 2000 the average yield on earning assets amounts amounted to 8.19%, while the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities was 2.73%. For the same period of 1999, the average yield on earning assets was 8.04% and the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities was 2.78%. The increase in the yield on earning assets is attributable to an increase in the yield on Federal Funds sold. The net interest margin is computed by subtracting interest expense from interest income and dividing the resulting figure by average interest-earning assets. The net interest margin for the period ended March 31, 2000 was 5.53% and for 1999 was 5.43%. This increase was the result of a decrease in the rate on interest-bearing deposits, and an increase in the interest rates on earning assets. The following table represents changes in the Company's net interest income which are primarily a result of changes in volume and rates of its interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The decrease in net interest income is due to decreased volume of earning assets and interest bearing liabilities and a decrease in rates on earning assets and interest bearing liabilities. ANALYSIS OF CHANGES IN NET INTEREST INCOME FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2000 VERSUS 1999 ------------------------------------------------ VOLUME RATE NET CHANGE ------------- ----------- --------------- Federal fund sold $ (23,050) $ 9,050 $ (14,000) Investment securities (1,520) (1,480) (3,000) Loans 19,715 (17,715) 2,000 ------------- ----------- --------------- Total earning assets (4,855) (10,145) (15,000) Total interest on interest-bearing liabilities (6,070) (2,930) (9,000) ------------- ----------- --------------- Net interest income $ 1,215 $ (7,215) $ (6,000) ============= =========== =============== -7- (Continued) ITEM 2: (CONTINUED) - ------------------- NONINTEREST INCOME Noninterest income was $58,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2000 and 1999. Noninterest income remained flat despite a decrease in average interest-bearing liabilities due to fees and charges on different types of deposits. NONINTEREST EXPENSES Noninterest expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2000 and 1999 were $252,000 and $251,000, respectively. Noninterest expenses is comparable due to the results of operations remaining relatively stable. The allowance for loan losses was 1.36% of loans, net of unearned income, as of March 31, 2000 compared to 1.27% as of December 31, 1999. The provision for loan losses was $9,000 and $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The 1999 provision was lower because of a recovery of a previously charged off loan in 4th quarter 1998. Management reviews the adequacy of the allowance on an ongoing basis and believes it is adequate. LIQUIDITY Liquidity is the ability to meet current and future obligations through liquidation or maturity of existing assets or the acquisition of liabilities. The Company manages both assets and liabilities to achieve appropriate levels of liquidity. Cash and short-term investments are the Company's primary sources of asset liquidity. These funds provide a cushion against short-term fluctuations in cash flow from both deposits and loans. The investment portfolio is the Bank's principal source of secondary asset liquidity. However, the availability of this source of funds is influenced by market conditions. Individual and commercial deposits are the Bank's primary source of funds for credit activities. Management believes that the Company's liquidity sources are adequate to meet its operating needs. LOANS Commercial, financial and agricultural loans made up 36.6% of the total loan portfolio as of March 31, 2000, totaling $6,050,000. Loans secured by real estate for construction and land development totaled $420,000 or 2.5% of the total loan portfolio while all other loans secured by real estate totaled $6,414,000 or 38.8% of the total loan portfolio as of March 31, 2000. Installment loans and other consumer loans to individuals comprised 22.1% of the total loan portfolio totaling $3,652,000. CAPITAL RESOURCES The capital base for the Company decreased by $56,000 for the three months of 2000. This net change includes an increase to equity for net income of $115,000 offset by unrealized losses on investment securities of $44,000 and cash dividends of $127,000. The Company's equity to asset ratio was 11.9% on March 31, 2000, as compared to 12.07% on December 31, 1999. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation has issued guidelines for risk-based capital requirements. As of March 31, 2000, the Bank exceeds the capital requirement levels that are to be maintained. CAPITAL RATIOS (AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS) Well Adequately Capitalized Capitalized Actual Requirement Requirement --------------------------- -------------------------- -------------------------- Amount Ratio Amount Ratio Amount Ratio ----------- ----------- ----------- ---------- ----------- ----------- Total capital (to risk weighted assets) $ 3,626 21.0% $ 1,723 10.0% $ 1,378 8.0% Tier 1 capital (to risk weighted assets) 3,411 19.8% 1,034 6.0% 689 4.0% Tier 1 capital (to average assets) 3,411 12.1% 1,410 5.0% 1,128 4.0% (Continued) -8- ASSET QUALITY Nonperforming assets as a percentage of loans and foreclosed property totaled 6.60% and 6.20% as of March 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999, respectively. Nonperforming assets increased to $1,105,000 as of March 31, 2000 from $1,024,000 at December 31, 1999. The nonperforming assets at March 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999 include a farm loan totaling $924,000 of which $740,000 is guaranteed by the US Government. EFFECTS OF REGULATORY ACTION The management of the Company is not aware of any current recommendations by regulatory authorities, which if they were to be implemented, would have a material effect on liquidity, capital resources, or operations. IMPACT OF INFLATION Unlike most industrial companies, the assets and liabilities of financial institutions such as the Bank are primarily monetary in nature. Therefore, interest rates have a more significant impact on the Bank's performance than do the effects of changes in the general rate of inflation and changes in prices. In addition, interest rates do not necessarily move in the same magnitude as the prices of goods and services. As discussed previously, management seeks to manage the relationships between interest sensitive assets and liabilities in order to protect against wide rate fluctuations, including those resulting from inflation. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instrument and Hedging Activities". All derivatives are to be measured at fair value and recognized in the statement of financial position as assets and liabilities. This statement's effective date was delayed by the issuance of SFAS 137, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - Deferral of the Effective Date of SFAS 133," and is effective for fiscal years and quarters beginning after June 15, 2000. The Bank does not expect that the adoption of SFAS 133 will have a material impact on the presentation of the Bank's results of financial position. PART II - OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1.
