These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, such financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 2002 and 2001, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of assets held for investment purposes as of December 31, 2002 is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. This schedule is the responsibility of the Plan's management. Such schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole. /s/ Francis and Company, CPAs Atlanta, Georgia September 8, 2003 =============================================================================== THOMASVILLE BANCSHARES, INC. 401(k) PROFIT SHARING PLAN STATEMENTS OF NET ASSETS AVAILABLE FOR BENEFITS DECEMBER 31, 2002 AND 2001 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2002 2001 ---------- ---------- ASSETS: Investments at fair value $ 301,894 $ 269,650 ---------- ---------- Receivables: Participant 7,102 3,437 Employer 1,226 734 ---------- ---------- Total receivables 8,328 4,171 ---------- ---------- NET ASSETS AVAILABLE FOR BENEFITS $ 310,222 $ 273,821 ========== ========== See notes to financial statements. =============================================================================== THOMASVILLE BANCSHARES, INC. 401(k) PROFIT SHARING PLAN STATEMENTS OF CHANGES IN NET ASSETS AVAILABLE FOR BENEFITS YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2002 AND 2001 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2002 2001 ---------- ---------- ADDITIONS: Ivestment (loss) income: Net depreciation in fair value of investments $ (63,574) $ (40,300) Interest 523 122 Dividends 4,249 5,514 ---------- ---------- Net investment loss $ (58,802) $ (34,664) ---------- ---------- Contributions: Participant $ 61,359 $ 37,162 Employer 40,549 36,553 Rollover (Participant) 414 - - ---------- ---------- Total additions $ 102,322 $ 73,715 ---------- ---------- DEDUCTIONS: Benefits paid to participants $ - - $ 10,087 Administrative expenses (Note 2) 2,948 3,212 ---------- ---------- Total deductions $ 2,948 $ 13,299 ---------- ---------- INCREASE IN NET ASSETS AVAILABLE FOR BENEFITS $ 40,572 $ 25,752 NET ASSETS AVAILABLE FOR BENEFITS: Beginning of year 269,650 248,069 ---------- ---------- End of year $ 310,222 $ 273,821 ========== ========== See notes to financial statements. =============================================================================== THOMASVILLE BANCSHARES, INC. 401(k) PROFIT SHARING PLAN NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - DECEMBER 31, 2002 AND 2001 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN The following summary of certain provisions of the Thomasville Bancshares, Inc. 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan (the "Plan") is provided for general information purposes only. Participants should refer to the summary Plan description and the Plan document for complete information. GENERAL - The Plan is a qualified defined contribution retirement plan commonly referred to as a 401(k) Plan. Generally, employees who have completed one year of service, who have been credited with at least 1,000 hours of service, and who have attained the age of 21 years, are eligible to participate in the Plan. PARTICIPANT CONTRIBUTIONS - Employees may elect to contribute to the Plan any amount up to 15% of their "before-tax" earnings, provided it does not exceed the maximum allowable amount specified under Section 415(c) of the Internal Revenue Code as adjusted from time to time. The maximum allowable amount for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001 is $11,000 and $10,500, respectively. EMPLOYER CONTRIBUTIONS - Under the Plan's terms, the employer is not required to contribute to the Plan. In each Plan year, the employer may contribute up to 50% of each participant's initial contribution of 2% of his or her salary. Additionally, the employer may contribute a discretionary profit sharing contribution, which will be allocated to all eligible participants based on their compensation as a percent of total compensation of all eligible participants. PARTICIPANT ACCOUNTS - Each participant's account is credited with the participant's contribution and allocations of (a) the employer's contribution and (b) Plan earnings. Allocations are based on participant earnings or account balances, as defined in the Plan. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the participant's vested account. Participant accounts may be charged with fees for the administration of the Plan. WITHDRAWALS - Under the terms of the Plan, a participant may make a withdrawal for reasons of economic hardship before attaining age 591/2. Upon attaining age 591/2, participants may withdraw their entire account balance. VESTING - Employee and rollover contributions are fully vested upon entering the Plan. Employer contributions vest at the following rates: Years of Service Vesting Percentage ---------------- ------------------ Less than two 0 Two but less than three 20 Three but less than four 40 Four but less than five 60 Five but less than six 80 Six or more 100 PARTICIPANT LOANS - The Plan allows participants to borrow up to the lesser of $50,000 or 50% of the vested portion of their account balances, subject to certain restrictions. Loan maturity is up to 5 years except for the purchase of a primary residence, where longer maturities are possible. The loan is secured by the balance in the participant's account and bears interest at the market rate. FORFEITURES - Forfeited balances of terminated participants' nonvested accounts are reallocated among remaining participants. 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES BASIS OF ACCOUNTING - The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES - The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of net assets available for Plan participants and changes therein. Actual results could differ from those estimates. RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES - The Plan provides various investment options. The Plan's mutual funds invest in various securities including U.S. Government securities, corporate debt instruments, and corporate common stocks. Investment securities, in general, are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, credit, and overall market volatility. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment securities will occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect the amounts reported in the statement of Net Assets Available for Benefits. VALUATION OF INVESTMENTS AND INCOME RECOGNITION - The Plan's investments are stated at fair value. Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on the trade-date basis. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. BENEFIT PAYMENTS - Distributions to Plan participants are recorded when paid. EXPENSES - Administrative expenses are either paid by the Plan and allocated to each participant when paid or paid by the employer. To date, all Plan expenses have been paid by the employer. 3. INVESTMENTS Plan participants may elect to contribute to any or all eight investment vehicles that are part of the MainStay family of funds. If a Plan participant borrows from the Plan, then he or she is, in effect, also participating in the investment vehicle of loans. Generally, Plan accounts are credited when contributions are made and/or when gains on investments are recognized. Conversely, Plan accounts are charged (debited) when funds are withdrawn and/or when losses on investments are recognized. The following investments were held for the benefits of the participants at December 31, 2002 and 2001: December 31, ------------------------- 2002 2001 ---------- ---------- Capital Appreciation Fund $ 86,763 $ 86,385 Value Fund 37,208 38,119 Convertible Fund 24,721 22,793 Total Return Fund 72,463 72,095 High Yield Corporate Bond Fund 19,894 16,321 Government Fund 31,036 18,918 Money Market Fund 15,127 2,769 NY Life Guaranteed Interest Contract 7,761 3,753 Participant Loans 6,921 8,497 ---------- ---------- Total Investments $ 301,894 $ 269,650 ========== ========== During 2002 and 2001, the Plan's investments (including gains and losses on investments bought and sold, as well as held during the year) depreciated in value by $(63,574) and $(40,300), respectively, as follows: Year Ended December 31, ------------------------- 2002 2001 ---------- ---------- FUNDS ----- Capital Appreciation Fund $ (34,608) $ (24,539) Value Fund (10,283) (1,124) Convertible Fund (15,560) (11,169) Total Return Fund (2,698) (1,654) High Yield Corporate Bond Fund (2,033) (1,777) Government Fund 1,329 (170) Money Market Fund - - - - NY Life Guaranteed Interest Contract 279 133 Loans to participants - - - - ---------- ---------- Total Investments $ (63,574) $ (40,300) ========== ========== 4. TERMINATION OF THE PLAN Although it has not expressed any intention to do so, the employer has the right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA. However, in the event of Plan termination, participants will become 100% vested in their accounts and the assets of the Plan shall be distributed to participants and beneficiaries based on their individual accounts as of the termination date. 5. FEDERAL INCOME TAX STATUS The Plan obtained its latest determination letter on November 4, 2002, in which the Internal Revenue Service stated that the Plan, as then designed and presented, was in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. =============================================================================== SUPPLEMENTAL SCHEDULE THOMASVILLE BANCSHARES, INC. 401(k) PROFIT SHARING PLAN Assets Held at December 31, 2002 and 2001 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2002 2001 ---------- ---------- Current Current Units Value Units Value ------ --------- ----- --------- Capital Appreciation Fund 3,976 $ 86,763 2,875 $ 86,385 Value Fund 1,860 37,208 2,088 38,119 Convertible Fund 2,326 24,721 1,977 22,793 Total Return Fund 4,630 72,463 3,868 72,095 High Yield Corporate Bond Fund 3,863 19,894 2,868 16,321 Government Fund 3,609 31,036 2,285 18,918 Money Market Fund 15,127 15,127 2,769 2,769 NY Life Guaranteed Interest Contract 7,752 7,761 3,741 3,753 Participant Loans 1 6,921 1 8,497 Receivables - - 8,328 - - 4,171 ------ --------- ----- --------- Totals N/A $ 310,222 N/A $ 273,821 ====== ========= ===== ========= Note that the number of units/shares were rounded to the nearest whole number.
