Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
In management's opinion, the financial information contained in the accompanying
unaudited consolidated financial statements reflects all adjustments (consisting
solely of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the
financial information as of and for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2005
and 2004, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America. The consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of Four Oaks Fincorp, Inc. (the "Company") and its wholly-owned
subsidiaries, Four Oaks Bank & Trust Company (the "Bank") and Four Oaks Mortgage
Services, LLC, a mortgage origination subsidiary. All significant intercompany
transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Operating
results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2005 are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending
December 31, 2005.
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 annual report on Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2004. This quarterly report should be read in
conjunction with such annual report.
Certain amounts in 2004 were reclassified to conform with the presentation in
2005. These reclassifications had no effect on the Company's previously reported
consolidated financial position or results of operations.
NOTE 2 - NET INCOME PER SHARE
Basic and diluted net income per common share are computed based on the weighted
average number of shares outstanding during each period after retroactively
adjusting for a 5-for-4 stock split paid on October 29, 2004. Diluted net income
per common share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities
or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common
stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that would then share in the
net income of the Company.
Basic and diluted net income per common share have been computed based upon net
income as presented in the accompanying consolidated statements of income
divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding or assumed
to be outstanding as summarized below:

------------------------

----------- -----------
Weighted average number of common shares
and dilutive potential common shares used
in computing diluted net income per share 3,473,773 3,383,230

As of March 31, 2005 and 2004, there were no antidilutive shares outstanding for
either three-month period.
NOTE 3 - STOCK COMPENSATION PLANS
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards, ("SFAS") No. 123, Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation, ("SFAS 123") encourages all entities to adopt a fair
value based method of accounting for employee stock compensation plans, whereby
compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award
and is recognized over the service period, which is usually the vesting period.
However, it also allows an entity to continue to measure compensation cost for
those plans using the intrinsic value based method of accounting prescribed by
Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued
to Employees, whereby compensation cost is the excess, if any, of the quoted
market price of the stock at the grant date (or other measurement date) over the
amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. Stock options issued under the
Company's stock option plans have no intrinsic value at the grant date as they
are granted with an exercise price equal to the fair market value on that date
and, under APB Opinion No. 25, no compensation cost is recognized for them. The
Company has elected to continue with the accounting methodology in APB Opinion
No. 25 and, as a result, has provided the following pro forma disclosures of net
income and earnings per share and other disclosures as if the fair value based
method of accounting had been applied.

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion provides information about the major components of the
financial condition and results of operations of the Company and its
subsidiaries and should be read in conjunction with our Consolidated Financial
Statements and Notes thereto.
Comparison of Financial Condition at
March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004
During the three months ended March 31, 2005, the Company's total assets grew
from $398.5 million at December 31, 2004 to $425.0 million, an increase of $26.5
million or 6.64%. Our liquid assets, consisting of cash and cash equivalents and
investment securities available for sale, experienced a net increase of $16.8
million, primarily from increases in investment securities of $11.8 million.
Additional funds available from deposit growth provided an opportunity to
increase investments as yields improved during March 2005. Net loans grew from
$308.8 million at December 31, 2004 to $317.9 million at March 31, 2005 due to a
$10.5 million growth in loans secured by real estate. Our loan portfolio
continues to reflect a trend towards growth in commercial real estate lending.
Deposits from our local market continued to be our primary funding source,
increasing by $20.7 million, while wholesale deposits increased $4.6 million.
Deposits grew from $315.3 million at December 31, 2004 to $340.7 million. This
increase occurred primarily within our time deposit accounts, which increased
locally by $12.4 million, with additional funds provided by increases in
non-interest bearing deposits and interest checking deposits of $4.8 million and
$3.4 million, respectively, during the quarter. Deposit growth can be attributed
to rising interest rates as we increased our rates in response to continued
pricing pressures from our competitive market.
Total shareholders' equity increased $698,000 from $37.3 million at December 31,
2004 to $38.0 million at March 31, 2005. This increase in shareholders' equity
resulted principally from income from operations during the period of $1.2
million and net proceeds from the issuance of common stock from stock option
exercises of $284,000 and dividend reinvestment in the amount of $158,000.
Offsetting these increases were other comprehensive losses of $616,000, and
dividends paid to our shareholders of $305,000. At March 31, 2005, both the
Company and the Bank were considered to be well capitalized, as such term is
defined in applicable federal regulations.
Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended
March 31, 2005 and 2004
Net Income. Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2005 was $1.2
million, or $.34 basic per share, as compared with net income of $799,000 or
$.24 basic per share for the three months ended March 31, 2004, an increase of
$377,000 or $.10 per share. This increase resulted primarily from an increase in
the Company's net interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2005 of
$688,000, which was partially offset by increased non-interest expense of
$405,000.
Net Interest Income. Like most financial institutions, the primary component of
earnings for the Bank is net interest income. Net interest income is the
difference between interest income, principally from loan and investment
securities portfolios, and interest expense, principally on customer deposits
and borrowings. Changes in net interest income result from changes in volume,
spread and margin. For this purpose, volume refers to the average dollar level
of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, spread refers to
the difference between the average yield on interest-earning assets and the
average cost of interest-bearing liabilities and margin refers to net interest
income divided by average interest-earning assets. Margin is influenced by the
level and relative mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing
liabilities, as well as by levels of non-interest-bearing liabilities and
capital.
11
Net interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2005 was $4.4 million,
an increase of $688,000 compared to the first quarter of 2004, which resulted
primarily from the increase in the level of our average interest-earning assets
of $52.8 million relative to the increase in the level of our average
interest-bearing liabilities of $44.9 million during the quarter. Also,
contributing to the increase in net interest income, was the average growth in
interest free demand deposits of $7.5 million. The growth in demand deposits
provided a partial offset to the $30.5 million increase in higher costing time
deposits. The above factors combined to increase our net interest margin by 13
basis points from 4.59% in the 2004 quarter to 4.72% in the current year
quarter.
Provision for Loan Losses. The provision for loan losses was $187,000 and
$568,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively, a
decrease of $381,000. The provision for the first quarter of 2004 reflected an
increase due to an unsecured overdraft related to a discontinued product. Net
charge-offs of $57,000 were recorded during the first three months of 2005,
compared to $133,000 for the first quarter of 2004. Non-performing loans
aggregated $1.3 million at March 31, 2005, increasing $320,000 from the $944,000
at December 31, 2004, while the allowance for loan losses, expressed as a
percentage of gross loans, was 1.30% at March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004.
Management believes that the allowance is adequate to absorb probable losses
inherent in the loan portfolio.
Non-Interest Income. Non-interest income decreased $96,000 for the three months
ended March 31, 2005 to $762,000 as compared to $858,000 for the same period in
2004. The decline of $96,000 was primarily due to losses on sales of investment
securities of $54,000 compared to gains of $56,000 on sales of investment
securities for the prior year quarter. Service charges on deposit accounts
declined $68,000. The decline in these fees is attributable to increased
competition among banking institutions to offer lower fees and a more
enlightened customer base as they continue to migrate into more cost efficient
deposit products. There were no other significant changes in any of the
categories of income that comprise our total non-interest income.
Non-Interest Expense. Non-interest expense increased $405,000 to $3.2 million
for the three months ended March 31, 2005 compared to $2.8 million for the three
months ended March 31, 2004. This increase was due in part to an increase in
salaries and employee benefits of $124,000, which resulted from normal salary
adjustments, newly appointed officer or management level personnel, and rising
benefits costs. The addition of two offices in January 2005 contributed to
increased operating expenses including advertising expense of approximately
$36,000, printing and office supplies of approximately $16,000 and telephone
expense of approximately $14,000. In addition to the opening of new offices,
upgrades in technology resulted in an increase in equipment expense of $58,000.
Professional fees also increased $53,000 primarily due to increased regulatory
requirements. There were no other significant increases in any of the remaining
non-interest expenses which grew due to the Company's overall asset growth.
Provision for Income Taxes. The Company's provision for income taxes, as a
percentage of income before income taxes, was 34.6% and 35.0% for the three
months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.
12
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our liquidity position is primarily dependent upon the Bank's need to respond to
loan demand, the short-term demand for funds caused by withdrawals from deposit
accounts (other than time deposits) and the liquidity of its assets. The Bank's
primary liquidity sources include cash and amounts due from other banks, federal
funds sold, and U.S. Government Agency and other short-term investment
securities. In addition, the Bank has the ability to borrow funds from the
Federal Reserve Bank and the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta and to purchase
federal funds from other financial institutions. Management believes that the
Company's liquidity sources are adequate to meet our operating needs and the
operating needs of the Bank for the next eighteen months. Total shareholders'
equity was $38.0 million or 8.9% of total assets at March 31, 2005 and $37.3
million or 9.4% of total assets at December 31, 2004.
Forward Looking Information
Information set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, under the caption
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations" contains various "forward looking statements" within the meaning of
Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which statements represent our
judgment concerning the future and are subject to risks and uncertainties that
could cause our actual operating results and financial position to differ
materially. Such forward looking statements can be identified by the use of
forward looking terminology, such as "may," "will," "expect," "anticipate,"
"estimate," or "continue" or the negative thereof, or other variations thereof,
or comparable terminology.
We caution that any such forward looking statements are further qualified by
important factors that could cause our actual operating results to differ
materially from those in the forward looking statements, including, without
limitation, the effects of future economic conditions, governmental fiscal and
monetary policies, legislative and regulatory changes, the risks of changes in
interest rates on the level and composition of deposits, the effects of
competition from other financial institutions, the failure of assumptions
underlying the establishment of the allowance for loan losses, the low trading
volume of our common stock, other considerations described in connection with
specific forward looking statements and other cautionary elements specified in
our periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
"Commission"), including without limitation, our Annual Report on Form 10-K,
Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and current Reports on Form 8-K.
ITEM 3 - QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK
We believe there has not been any significant change in the overall analysis of
financial instruments considered market risk sensitive, as measured by the
factors of contractual maturities, average interest rates and the difference
between estimated fair values and book values, since the analysis prepared and
presented in conjunction with our Form 10-K Annual Report for the fiscal year
ended December 31, 2004.
ITEM 4 - CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
As required by paragraph (b) of Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, an
evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of
the Company's management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and
procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act)
as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation,
the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that as
of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company's disclosure
controls and procedures are effective, in that they provide reasonable
assurances that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the
reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported, within the time periods required by the Commission's
rules and forms.
