Exhibit 99.1


  Atlantic Coast Federal Corporation to Restate Financial Statements


    WAYCROSS, Ga.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 7, 2007--Atlantic Coast
Federal Corporation (NASDAQ:ACFC), the holding company for Atlantic
Coast Bank (collectively the "Company"), today announced that it will
restate its historical financial statements for the years ended
December 31, 2006, 2005, and 2004, and for individual quarter ended
March 31, 2007. The restatements involve the Company's accounting for
two interest rate swaps under Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities ("SFAS 133"), entered into in connection with the Company's
Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") advances. The non-cash cumulative
increase in net income over the three-year period is approximately
$422,000, net of taxes, with no change in reported stockholders'
equity as of March 31, 2007, and an increase in reported total assets
of only $260,000. Nevertheless, the decision to restate prior
financial information reflects primarily the impact of fluctuations
within the individual quarters.

    Commenting on the announcement, Robert J. Larison, Jr., President
and Chief Executive Officer said, "Our hedging activities have always
focused on reducing interest rate risk and volatility, and in fact
these particular transactions were deemed to be economically effective
cash flow hedges. Upon further review of the underlying facts and
circumstances of the transactions, however, we now have determined
that these swaps do not qualify for cash flow hedge accounting."

    "It is important to note that the change in accounting treatment
has no significant effect on our financial condition and cumulative
results of operations," Larison added. "It has no effect on cash
flows. Earnings per diluted share remain unchanged from previously
reported amounts for the first quarter of 2007 and the year ended
December 31, 2006. The cumulative effect on earnings from March 31,
2004, to March 31, 2007, was $422,000, net of taxes. It is only from
the perspective of individual quarters during the restatement period
that fluctuations in the fair value of the two interest rate swaps,
and their effect on current net income, become meaningful, which
explains our purpose in making the restatements at this time."

    During 2004, the Company entered into two interest rate swap
agreements with notional amounts totaling $15 million, of which $10
million remained in effect as of December 31, 2006, to hedge the
variability in expected future cash flows on certain floating-rate
Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") advances. At inception, the critical
terms of these swaps were viewed as matching the critical terms of the
hedged FHLB advances and, as a result, it was determined that changes
in cash flows were expected to completely offset at inception and on
an ongoing basis as provided under Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities ("SFAS 133"). Therefore, the interest rate swap agreements
were deemed to be effective cash flow hedges during the first quarter
of 2007 and the years 2006, 2005 and 2004, consistent with SFAS 133.
During the reporting periods between 2004 and 2007, the Company's
independent registered public accounting firm, Crowe Chizek and
Company LLC, did not disagree with the accounting treatment of the
interest rate swaps as part of their year-end audit or review of the
Company's interim financial statements.

    In conjunction with the preparation of the Company's prospectus
associated with the conversion and stock offering announced on May 7,
2007, and based on discussions with Crowe Chizek and Company LLC, the
Company has now determined that although these swaps were economically
effective, the initial assessment of matching critical terms for the
interest rate swaps and the corresponding hedged FHLB advances was
incorrect. In each circumstance, the interest rate swap contained an
embedded written option that allowed the counterparty to terminate the
interest rate swap under certain conditions, while the FHLB advance
did not contain such matching terms. The Company did have the option
to prepay the FHLB advances, however, it was not a contractual
requirement. Since the interest rate swaps and the FHLB advances did
not have absolute parity and the critical terms of the instruments did
not completely match, the Company and its Audit Committee have
concluded that the swap transactions did not qualify as cash flow
hedges and, therefore, any fluctuations in the market value of the
interest rate swaps, including any accrued interest, should have been
included in other non-interest income resulting in quarterly and
annual mark-to-market adjustments. As originally recorded,
fluctuations in the fair value of the interest rate swaps were
recorded in other comprehensive income, with accrued interest recorded
as a reduction of interest expense on FHLB advances. There is no
effect on cash flows or stockholders' equity from these revisions.

    Attached on the following four pages is a summary of the primary
changes from previous financial statements as a result of the
restatement for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005, 2004, the
first quarter of 2007, and the first, second, third and fourth
quarters of 2006, 2005, and 2004.
