NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1. Presentation of Consolidated Financial Statements
-------------------------------------------------
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Provident
Community Bancshares, Inc. (the "Corporation") were prepared in accordance with
instructions for Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not include all disclosures
necessary for a complete presentation of consolidated financial condition,
results of operations, and cash flows in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America. However, all adjustments
which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair presentation of
the interim consolidated financial statements have been included. All such
adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. The results of operations for
the six months ended June 30, 2007 are not necessarily indicative of the results
which may be expected for the entire calendar year. Certain amounts in the prior
year's financial statements have been reclassified to conform to current year
classifications.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
The following is a summary of recent authoritative pronouncements that affect
accounting, reporting, and disclosure of financial information by the
Corporation:
In February 2006, FASB issued SFAS No. 155, "Accounting for Certain Hybrid
Financial Instruments--an amendment of FASB Statements No. 133 and 140." This
Statement amends SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and
Hedging Activities," and SFAS No. 140, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing
of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities." This Statement resolves
issues addressed in SFAS No. 133 Implementation Issue No. D1, "Application of
Statement 133 to Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets." FAS 155
permits fair value re-measurement for any hybrid financial instrument that
contains an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation,
clarifies which interest only-strips and principal-only strips are not subject
to the requirements of Statement 133, establishes a requirement to evaluate
interests in securitized financial assets to identify interests that are
freestanding derivatives or that are hybrid financial instruments that contain
an embedded derivative requiring bifurcation, clarifies that concentrations of
credit risk in the form of subordination are not embedded derivatives, and
amends Statement 140 to eliminate the prohibition on a qualifying special
purpose entity from holding a derivative financial instrument that pertains to a
beneficial interest other than another derivative financial instrument. SFAS No.
155 is effective for all financial instruments acquired or issued after the
beginning of an entity's first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006.
The Company does not believe that the adoption of SFAS No. 155 will have a
material impact on its financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
In March 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 156, "Accounting for Servicing of
Financial Assets--an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140." This Statement amends
FASB No. 140, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and
Extinguishments of Liabilities," with respect to the accounting for separately
recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities. SFAS No. 156 requires an
entity to recognize a servicing asset or servicing liability each time it
undertakes an obligation to service a financial asset by entering into a
servicing contract; requires all separately recognized servicing assets and
servicing liabilities to be initially measured at fair value, if practicable;
permits an entity to choose its subsequent measurement methods for each class of
separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities; at its initial
adoption, permits a one-time reclassification of available-for-sale securities
to trading securities by entities with recognized servicing rights, without
calling into question the treatment of other available-for-sale securities under
Statement 115, provided that the available-for-sale securities are identified in
some manner as offsetting the entity's exposure to changes in fair value of
servicing assets or servicing liabilities that a service elects to subsequently
measure at fair value; and requires separate presentation of servicing assets
and servicing liabilities subsequently measured at fair value in the statement
of financial position and additional disclosures for all separately recognized
servicing assets and servicing liabilities. An entity should adopt SFAS No. 156
as of the beginning of its first fiscal year that begins after September 15,
2006. The Company does not believe the adoption of SFAS No. 156 will have a
material impact on its financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
7
In July 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48 ("FIN 48"), "Accounting
for Uncertainty in Income Taxes." FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for
uncertainty in income taxes recognized in enterprises' financial statements in
accordance with FASB Statement No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes". FIN 48
prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attributable for the
financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or
expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN 48 also provides guidance on
derecognizing, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim
periods, disclosures and transitions. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2006. The adoption did not have a material impact
on the reported results of operations or financial conditions of the Company.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements." SFAS
157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in
generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair
value measurements. This standard does not require any new fair value
measurements, but rather eliminates inconsistencies found in various prior
pronouncements. SFAS 157 is effective for the Company on January 1, 2008 and is
not expected to have a significant impact on the Company's financial statements.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 158, "Employers' Accounting for
Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans" ("SFAS 158"), which
amends SFAS 87 and SFAS 106 to require recognition of the over funded or under
funded status of pension and other postretirement benefit plans on the balance
sheet. Under SFAS 158, gains and losses, prior service costs and credits, and
any remaining transition amounts under SFAS 87 and SFAS 106 that have not yet
been recognized through net periodic benefit cost will be recognized in
accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax effects, until they are
amortized as a component of net periodic cost. The measurement date--the date at
which the benefit obligation and plan assets are measured--is required to be the
company's fiscal year end. SFAS 158 is effective for publicly held companies for
fiscal years ending after December 15, 2006, except for the measurement date
provisions, which are effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2008.
The Company does not have a defined benefit pension plan. Therefore, SFAS 158
will not impact the Company's financial conditions or results of operations.
In September, 2006, The FASB ratified the consensuses reached by the Fast's
Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") relating to EITF 06-4 "Accounting for the
Deferred Compensation and Postretirement Benefit Aspects of Endorsement
Split-Dollar Life Insurance Arrangements". EITF 06-4 addresses employer
accounting for endorsement split-dollar life insurance arrangements that provide
a benefit to an employee that extends to postretirement periods should recognize
a liability for future benefits in accordance with SFAS No. 106, "Employers'
Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions", or Accounting
Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 12, "Omnibus Opinion--1967". EITF 06-4 is
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Entities should
recognize the effects of applying this Issue through either (a) a change in
accounting principle through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings
or to other components of equity or net assets in the statement of financial
position as of the beginning of the year of adoption or (b) a change in
accounting principle through retrospective application to all prior periods. The
Company does not believe the adoption of EITF 06-4 will have a material impact
on its financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
8
In September 2006, the FASB ratified the consensus reached related to EITF 06-5,
"Accounting for Purchases of Life Insurance--Determining the Amount That Could
Be Realized in Accordance with FASB Technical Bulletin No. 85-4, Accounting for
Purchases of Life Insurance." EITF 06-5 states that a policyholder should
consider any additional amounts included in the contractual terms of the
insurance policy other than the cash surrender value in determining the amount
that could be realized under the insurance contract. EITF 06-5 also states that
a policyholder should determine the amount that could be realized under the life
insurance contract assuming the surrender of an individual-life by
individual-life policy (or certificate by certificate in a group policy). EITF
06-5 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The
Company does not believe the adoption of EITF 06-5 will have a material impact
on its financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, "The Fair Value Option for
Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities - Including an amendment of FASB
Statement No. 115." This statement permits, but does not require, entities to
measure many financial instruments at fair value. The objective is to provide
entities with an opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused
by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply
complex hedge accounting provisions. Entities electing this option will apply it
when the entity first recognizes an eligible instrument and will report
unrealized gains and losses on such instruments in current earnings. This
statement 1) applies to all entities, 2) specifies certain election dates, 3)
can be applied on an instrument-by-instrument basis with some exceptions, 4) is
irrevocable and 5) applies only to entire instruments. One exception is demand
deposit liabilities which are explicitly excluded as qualifying for fair value.
With respect to SFAS 115, available-for-sale and held-to-maturity securities at
the effective date are eligible for the fair value option at that date. If the
fair value option is elected for those securities at the effective date,
cumulative unrealized gains and losses at that date shall be included in the
cumulative-effect adjustment and thereafter, such securities will be accounted
for as trading securities. SFAS 159 is effective for the Corporation on January
1, 2008. Earlier adoption is permitted in 2007 if the Corporation also elects to
apply the provisions of SFAS 157, "Fair Value Measurement." The Corporation is
currently analyzing the fair value option provided under SFAS 159.
Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or
other standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date
are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial
statements upon adoption.
2. Income Per Share
----------------
Basic income per share amounts for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007
and 2006 were computed based on the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding during the period. Diluted income per share adjusts for the dilutive
effect of outstanding common stock options during the periods utilizing the
treasury stock method. Common stock equivalents included in the diluted earnings
per share calculation for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 were
36,404 and 22,875, respectively.
3. Assets Pledged
--------------
Approximately $64,422,000 and $74,387,000 of debt securities at June 30, 2007
and December 31, 2006, respectively, were pledged by Provident Community Bank,
N.A. (the "Bank") as collateral to secure deposits of the State of South
Carolina, and Union, Laurens and York counties along with additional borrowings
and repurchase agreements. The Bank pledges as collateral for Federal Home Loan
Bank advances commercial and residential real estate mortgage loans under a
collateral agreement with the Federal Home Loan Bank whereby the Bank maintains,
free of other encumbrances, qualifying mortgages (as defined) with unpaid
principal balances equal to, when discounted at 75% of the unpaid principal
balances, 100% of total advances. As part of the total assets pledged, the Bank
will also pledge securities to cover additional advances from the Federal Home
Loan Bank that exceed the qualifying mortgages balance along with security
repurchase lines with various brokerage houses.
9
4. Contingencies and Loan Commitments
----------------------------------
In the ordinary course of business, the Bank enters into financial
instruments with off-balance-sheet risk to meet the financing needs of its
customers. These instruments expose the Bank to credit risk in excess of the
amount recognized on the balance sheet.
The Bank's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by
the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit is
represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Bank uses the
same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it
does for on-balance-sheet instruments. Total credit exposure at June 30, 2007
related to these items is summarized below:
Loan Commitments: Contract Amount
----------------- ---------------
Approved loan commitments $ 2,773,000
Unadvanced portions of loans and credit lines 50,332,000
----------
Total loan commitments $ 53,105,000

Loan commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long
as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Loan
commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses
and may require payment of a fee. The Bank evaluates each customer's
creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained upon
extension of credit is based on management's credit evaluation of the counter
party. Collateral held is primarily residential and commercial property.
Commitments outstanding at June 30, 2007 consisted of fixed and adjustable rate
loans at rates ranging from 6.5% to 8.5%. Commitments to originate loans
generally expire within 30 to 60 days.
Commitments to fund loans, including credit lines (principally variable rate,
consumer lines secured by real estate and overdraft protection) totaled
approximately $131,131,000 at June 30, 2007. Of these lines, the outstanding
loan balances totaled approximately $80,799,000.
5. Fixed/Floating Rate Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debentures
----------------------------------------------------------------------
On July 18, 2006, the Corporation sponsored the creation of Provident Community
Bancshares Capital Trust I ("Capital Trust I"). The Corporation is the owner of
all of the common securities of Capital Trust I. On July 21, 2006, Capital Trust
I issued $4,000,000 in the form of floating/fixed rate capital securities
through a pooled trust preferred securities offering. The proceeds from this
issuance, along with the Corporation's $124,000 capital contribution for Capital
Trust I's common securities, were used to acquire $4,124,000 aggregate principal
amount of the Corporation's floating rate junior subordinated deferrable
interest debentures due October 1, 2036, which constitute the sole asset of
Capital Trust I. The interest rate on the debentures and the capital securities
will be equal to 7.393% for the first five years. Thereafter, the interest rate
is variable and adjustable quarterly at 1.74% over the three-month LIBOR. The
debentures are subject to redemption at par at the option of the Corporation,
subject to prior regulatory approval, in whole or in part on any interest
payment date after October 1, 2011. The debentures are also subject to
redemption prior to October 1, 2011 at up to 103.7% of par after the occurrence
of certain events.

On November 28, 2006, the Corporation sponsored the creation of Provident
Community Bancshares Capital Trust ("Capital Trust II"). The Corporation is the
owner of all of the common securities of the Trust. On December 15, 2006, the
Trust issued $8,000,000 in the form of floating rate capital securities through
a pooled trust preferred securities offering. The proceeds of Capital Trust II
were utilized for the redemption of Union Financial Bancshares Statutory Trust
(the "Trust") issued on December 18, 2001. The proceeds from this issuance,
along with the Corporation's $247,000 capital contribution for the Trust's
common securities, were used to acquire $8,247,000 aggregate principal amount of
the Corporation's floating rate junior subordinated deferrable interest
debentures due March 1, 2037, which constitute the sole asset of the Trust. The
interest rate on the debentures and the capital securities is variable and
adjustable quarterly at 1.74% over the three-month LIBOR. The debentures are
subject to redemption at par at the option of the Corporation, subject to prior
regulatory approval, in whole or in part on any interest payment date after
March 1, 2012. The debentures are also subject to redemption prior to March 1,
2012 at 103.5% of par after the occurrence of certain events.
On November 14, 2001, the Corporation sponsored the creation of a Trust, which
on December 18, 2001, issued $8,000,000 in the form of floating rate capital
securities through a pooled trust preferred securities offering. The proceeds
from this issuance, along with the Corporation's $248,000 capital contribution
for the trust's common securities, were used to acquire $8,247,000 aggregate
principal amount of the Corporation's floating rate junior subordinated
deferrable interest debentures due December 18, 2031, which constitute the sole
asset of the trust. The interest rate on the Debentures and the capital
securities was variable and adjustable quarterly at 3.60% over the three-month
LIBOR. On December 18, 2006, the trust was redeemed with the proceeds from
Capital Trust II.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
Critical Accounting Policies
- ----------------------------
The Corporation has adopted various accounting policies which govern the
application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America in the preparation of financial statements.
Certain accounting policies involve significant judgments and assumptions by
management which, if incorrect, could have a material impact on the carrying
value of certain assets and liabilities. Management considers such accounting
policies to be critical accounting policies. The judgments and assumptions used
by management are based on historical experience and other factors, which are
believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Because of the nature of the
judgments and assumptions made by management, actual results could differ from
these judgments and estimates which could have a material impact on the carrying
values of assets and liabilities and the results of operations of the
Corporation.
The Corporation believes the allowance for loan losses is a critical accounting
policy that requires significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation
of consolidated financial statements. Management reviews the level of the
allowance on a monthly basis and establishes the provision for loan losses based
on the composition and volume of the loan portfolio, overall portfolio quality,
delinquency levels, a review of specific problem loans, loss experience,
economic conditions, and other factors related to the collectibility of the loan
portfolio. A portion of the allowance is established by segregating the loans by
residential mortgage, commercial and consumer and assigning allocation
percentages based on historical loss experience and delinquency trends. The
applied allocation percentages are reevaluated at least annually to ensure their
relevance in the current economic environment. Accordingly, increases in the
size of the loan portfolio and the increased emphasis on commercial real estate
and commercial business loans, which carry a higher degree of risk of default
and, thus, a higher allocation percentage, increases the allowance.
Additionally, a portion of the allowance is established based on the level of
classified assets.
Although the Corporation believes that it uses the best information available to
establish the allowance for loan losses, future additions to the allowance may
be necessary based on estimates that are susceptible to change as a result of
changes in economic conditions and other factors. In addition, the Office of the
Comptroller of the Currency, as an integral part of its examination process,
will periodically review the Corporation's allowance for loan losses. Such
agency may require the Corporation to recognize adjustments to the allowance
based on its judgments about information available to it at the time of its
examination.
Forward Looking Statements
- --------------------------
Management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of
operations and other portions of this Form 10-Q may contain certain
"forward-looking statements" concerning the future operations of the Corporation
and the Bank. These forward-looking statements are generally identified by the
use of the words "believe," "expect," "intend," "anticipate," "estimate,"
"project," or similar expressions. Management intends to take advantage of the
safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995
and is including this statement for the express purpose of availing the
Corporation of the protections of such safe harbor with respect to all
forward-looking statements contained in this report to describe future plans and
strategies. Management's ability to predict results or the effect of future
plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Factors which could effect actual
results include interest rate trends, the general economic climate in the
Corporation's and the Bank's market area and the country as a whole, the ability
of the Corporation and the Bank to control costs and expenses, competitive
products and pricing, loan delinquency rates, the quality and composition of the
loan and investment portfolios, changes in accounting principles and guidelines
and changes in federal and state regulation. The Corporation provides greater
detail regarding some of these factors in its form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2006, including in the Risk Factors section of that report, and in
its other SEC reports. These factors should be considered in evaluating the
forward-looking statements, and undue reliance should not be placed on such
statements.
12
Except as required by applicable law or regulation, the Corporation does not
undertake, and specifically disclaims any obligation, to release publicly the
result of any revisions that may be made to any forward looking statements to
reflect events or circumstances after the date of these statements or to reflect
the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events.
Financial Condition
- -------------------
Assets
- ------
Total assets of the Corporation increased $2,043,000, or 0.53%, to $389,673,000
at June 30, 2007 from $387,630,000 at December 31, 2006. Investments and
mortgage-backed securities decreased approximately $8,511,000, or 6.97%, from
December 31, 2006 to June 30, 2007, due primarily to the maturity of government
sponsored enterprise securities, partially offset by the purchase of Freddie Mac
securities. Proceeds from the maturity of investment securities were utilized to
fund growth in higher-yielding loans. Cash and due from banks increased
$3,111,000, or 34.1%, to $12,235,000 at June 30, 2007 from $9,124,000 at
December 31, 2006 due to an increase in federal funds sold as a result of
deposit growth.

4.1%, to $258,625,000 at June 30, 2007 from $248,440,000 at December 31, 2006.
The overall growth includes a 19% increase in non-interest bearing accounts
while interest bearing accounts increased 3%. The increase was due primarily to
growth in accounts generated from the new banking center openings. The
Corporation continues to target lower cost demand deposit accounts through media
advertising.

The Bank pledges as collateral for the advances its investment securities and
has entered into a blanket collateral agreement with the FHLB whereby the Bank
maintains, free of other encumbrances, qualifying loans (as defined) with unpaid
principal balances equal to, when discounted at 50% to 75% of the unpaid
principal balances, 100% of total advances. Borrowings from the Federal Home
Loan Bank (the "FHLB") decreased $13,500,000, or 19.29%, to $56,500,000 at June
30, 2007 from $70,000,000 at December 31, 2006 primarily due to deposit growth.
Securities sold under agreement to repurchase increased $4,275,000 to
$32,808,000 at June 30, 2007 from $28,533,000 at December 31, 2006. The increase
in securities sold under agreement to repurchase was due to an increase in
customer deposit sweep accounts increasing from $8,133,000 at December 31, 2006
to $12,808,000 at June 30, 2007.
Shareholders' Equity
- --------------------
Shareholders' equity decreased $27,000, or 0.10%, to $25,940,000 at June 30,
2007 from $25,967,000 at December 31, 2006 due primarily to the repurchase of
30,285 shares at a cost of $630,000, dividend payments of $0.215 per share at a
cost of $411,000 and a $315,000 increase in unrealized losses on securities
available for sale, offset by net income of $1,250,000.
Liquidity
- ---------
Liquidity is the ability to meet demand for loan disbursements, deposit
withdrawals, repayment of debt, payment of interest on deposits and other
operating expenses. The primary sources of liquidity are deposits, loan
repayments, borrowings, maturity and sale of securities and interest payments.
While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans and securities are
predictable sources of funds, deposit outflows and mortgage prepayments are
greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and
competition. The primary investing activities of the Corporation are the
origination of commercial and consumer loans, and the purchase of investment and
mortgage-backed securities. These activities are funded primarily by principal
and interest payments on loans and investment securities, deposit growth,
securities sold under agreements to repurchase and the utilization of FHLB
advances.
17
At June 30, 2007, the Corporation's investment in marketable securities totaled
$113,674,000, nearly all of which is available for sale. Approximately
$64,422,000 and $74,387,000 of debt securities at June 30, 2007 and December 31,
2006, respectively, were pledged by the Bank as collateral to secure deposits of
the State of South Carolina, and Union, Laurens and York counties along with
additional borrowings and repurchase agreements.
Outstanding loan commitments (including commitments to fund credit lines)
totaled $131,131,000 at June 30, 2007. Management of the Corporation anticipates
that it will have sufficient funds available to meet its current loan
commitments.
The Corporation closely monitors its liquidity position on a daily basis.
Certificates of deposit, which are scheduled to mature in one year or less from
June 30, 2007, totaled $114,303,000. The Corporation relies primarily on
competitive rates, customer service, and long-standing relationships with
customers to retain deposits. From time to time, the Corporation will also offer
special products to its customers to increase retention and to attract new
deposits. Based upon the Corporation's experience with deposit retention and
current retention strategies, management believes that, although it is not
possible to predict future terms and conditions upon renewal, a significant
portion of such deposits will remain with the Corporation. If the Corporation
requires funds beyond its ability to generate them internally, additional
sources of funds are available through FHLB advances, securities sold under
agreements to repurchase and lines of credit. At June 30, 2007, the Corporation
had outstanding $56,500,000 of FHLB borrowings and $32,808,000 of securities
sold under agreements to repurchase. At June 30, 2007, the Corporation had
unused short-term lines of credit to purchase federal funds from unrelated banks
totaling $20,000,000 and the ability to borrow an additional $24,000,000 from
the FHLB and secured borrowing lines. Lines of credit are available on a
one-to-ten day basis for general purposes of the Corporation. All of the lenders
have reserved the right to withdraw these lines at their option.
Capital Management
- ------------------
The Bank and the Corporation are subject to various regulatory capital
requirements administered by banking regulators. Failure to meet minimum capital
requirements can initiate certain mandatory - and possibly additional
discretionary - actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct
material effect on the Corporation's consolidated financial statements. Under
capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective
action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative
measures of the Bank's assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items
as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Bank's capital amounts
and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators
about components, risk weights and other factors.
Quantitative measures established by regulations to ensure capital adequacy
require the Bank and the Corporation to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of
total and Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets, and of Tier 1 capital to
average assets (as defined in the regulations). Management believes, as of June
30, 2007, that the Bank and the Corporation meet the capital adequacy
requirements to which they are subject.
As of June 30, 2007, the Bank was "well capitalized" under the regulatory
framework for prompt corrective action based on its capital ratio calculations.
In order to be "well capitalized", the Bank must maintain minimum total
risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based, and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the
following table.
Under present regulations of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the
Bank must have core capital (leverage requirement) equal to 4.0% of assets, of
which 1.5% must be tangible capital, excluding intangible assets. The Bank must
also maintain risk-based regulatory capital as a percent of risk weighted assets
at least equal to 8.0%. In measuring compliance with capital standards, certain
adjustments must be made to capital and total assets.
18
The following tables present the total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based and Tier 1
leverage requirements for the Corporation and the Bank (dollars in thousands).

During fiscal 2003, the Corporation implemented a share repurchase program under
which the Board of Directors of the Corporation authorized the repurchase of up
to 5% of the outstanding shares or 98,000 shares. The program was expanded by an
additional 5%, or 98,000 shares, in fiscal 2004, by an additional 5%, or 95,000
shares in fiscal 2005 and by an additional 5%, or 92,000 shares in fiscal 2006.
The shares are to be repurchased either through open market purchases or
privately negotiated transactions, depending on market conditions and other
factors. Repurchased shares will be held in treasury and will be available for
the Corporation's benefit plans. During the six months ended June 30, 2007, the
Corporation repurchased 30,285 shares. As of June 30, 2007, the Corporation had
repurchased a total of 306,426 shares under these authorizations and had 76,574
shares available for repurchase under these authorizations.
Off-Balance Sheet Risk
- ----------------------
In the normal course of operations, the Corporation engages in a variety of
financial transactions that, in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles, are not recorded in its financial statements. These transactions
involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit, interest rate and liquidity
risk. Such transactions are used primarily to manage customer's requests for
funding and take the form of legally binding agreements to lend money to
customers at predetermined interest rates for a specified period of time.
Outstanding loan commitments (including commitments to fund credit lines)
totaled $131,131,000 at June 30, 2007. Each customer's credit worthiness is
evaluated on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed
necessary by the Corporation upon extension of credit, is based on the credit
evaluation of the borrower. Collateral varies but may include accounts
receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment, commercial and residential
real estate. The credit risk on these commitments is managed by subjecting each
customer to normal underwriting and risk management processes.
19
For the period ended June 30, 2007, the Corporation did not engage in any
off-balance sheet transactions reasonably likely to have a material effect on
its financial condition, results of operation and cash flows.
Results of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------
General
- -------
Net income decreased $38,000, or 5.95%, to $601,000 for the three months ended
June 30, 2007 as compared to $639,000 for the same period in 2006 as increases
in net interest income and non-interest income along with a reduction in the
provision for loan losses were more than offset by an increase in non-interest
expense. The increase in non-interest expense from the prior year quarter
reflects the additional expenses associated with opening three banking centers
in the previous twelve months. During the quarter, the Company announced the
closing of one banking center located in Winnsboro, South Carolina. The deposits
and operations contained in the banking center to be closed will be moved into a
larger Winnsboro, South Carolina location in order to improve the efficiencies
for Fairfield county. The Company recorded a $135,000 write-down on the building
value of the closed location. The closing will be completed during the third
quarter of 2007.

Interest Income
- ---------------
Interest income increased $691,000, or 11.98%, to $6,460,000 for the three
months ended June 30, 2007 as compared to the same period in 2006. Interest
income on loans increased by 16.30%, or $673,000, to $4,803,000 for the three
months ended June 30, 2007 from $4,130,000 for the three months ended June 30,
2006, due primarily to a higher average balance of loans and, to a lesser
extent, higher average rates due to increasing market interest rates along with
our increased emphasis on commercial and consumer loan originations. Interest on
deposits and federal funds sold, combined with interest and dividends on
investment and mortgage-backed securities increased $18,000 for the three months
ended June 30, 2007 to $1,657,000 from $1,639,000 during the same period in 2006
due to higher yields from higher market interest rates offset by lower average
balances.
21
Interest Expense
- ----------------
Interest expense increased $625,000, or 20.24%, to $3,713,000 for the three
months ended June 30, 2007 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2006.
Interest expense on deposit accounts increased $492,000, or 25.83%, to
$2,397,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2007 from $1,905,000 during the
same period in 2006 due to higher average balances and cost of deposits as a
result of higher market rates. The Corporation continues to target lower cost
demand deposit accounts versus traditional higher cost certificates of deposits
in order to reduce overall funding costs. Interest expense on borrowings
increased $89,000, or 8.86%, for the three months ended June 30, 2007 as
compared to the same period in the previous year due to higher average balances.
Interest expense on floating rate junior subordinated deferrable interest
debentures increased $44,000, or 24.58%, to $223,000 for the three months ended
June 30, 2007 from $179,000 during the same period in 2006 due to higher average
balances, offset by lower rates due to the repayment of older trust preferred
with the proceeds of newer trust preferred with lower rates. In addition, on
July 21, 2006, the Corporation completed a private placement of $4 million in
trust preferred securities thereby increasing outstanding balances to $12
million at June 30, 2007 compared to $8 million at June 30, 2006.
Provision for Loan Losses
- -------------------------
During the three months ended June 30, 2007, the provision for loan losses was
$85,000 as compared to $135,000 for the same period in the previous year due to
a decrease in classified loans and loans charged-off that was partially offset
by loan growth. The provision also reflects the Corporation's continued movement
from longer-term, fixed-rate residential mortgage loans to shorter-term,
floating-rate consumer and commercial loans. Consumer and commercial loans carry
higher risk weighted rates in the reserve calculation as compared to residential
mortgage loans. Real estate acquired in foreclosure and classified loans
decreased $1,314,000 from $7,532,000 at June 30, 2006 to $6,218,000 at June 30,
2007. During the three months ended June 30, 2007, bad debt charge-offs, net of
recoveries, was $50,000 as compared to $102,000 for the same period in the
previous year.
Non-Interest Income
- -------------------
Total non-interest income increased $85,000, or 11.69%, to $812,000 for the
three months ended June 30, 2007 from $727,000 for the same period in the
previous year. Fees from financial services increased $62,000, or 8.49%, to
$792,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2007 from $730,000 for the same
period in the previous year. The change was from an increase in service charges
due to an increase in the number of transaction accounts.
Non-Interest Expense
- --------------------
For the three months ended June 30, 2007, total non-interest expense increased
$338,000, or 14.24%, to $2,711,000 from $2,373,000 for the same period in 2006.
The increase was due primarily to higher operating costs associated with banking
centers opened in Simpsonville, South Carolina and two in Rock Hill, South
Carolina during the previous twelve months. During the quarter, the Company
announced the closing of one banking center located in Winnsboro, South
Carolina. The Company recorded a $135,000 write-down on the building value of
the closed location. Compensation and employee benefits increased $136,000, or
11.88%, to $1,281,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2007 from $1,145,000
for the same period in 2006 due primarily to higher compensation and benefits
costs for normal merit salary increases and additional staff due to the new
banking center openings. Occupancy and equipment expense increased $192,000, or
36.43%, to $719,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2007 from $527,000 for
the same period in 2006, due primarily to higher lease expense from the new
locations along with the $135,000 write down for the closed banking center.
Advertising/public relations expense increased $38,000, or 63.33%, to $98,000
for the three months ended June 30, 2007 from $60,000 for the same period in
2006 due primarily to product and promotion expenses for the new banking center
locations and product promotion expenses for business checking accounts. Loan
operations expense increased $14,000, or 100%, to $28,000 for the three months
ended June 30, 2007 from $14,000 for the same period in 2006, due to higher
costs associated with loan foreclosures. Intangible amortization expense
decreased $47,000, or 29.56%, to $112,000 for the three months ended June 30,
2007 from $159,000 for the same period in 2006, due to deposit premiums related
to branch acquisitions becoming fully amortized.

Results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------
General
- -------
Net income decreased $88,000, or 6.58%, to $1,250,000 for the six months ended
June 30, 2007 as compared to $1,338,000 for the same period in 2006 as increases
in net interest income and non-interest income and a reduction in the provision
for loan losses were more than offset by an increase in non-interest expense.
The increase in non-interest expense from the prior year reflects the additional
expenses associated with opening three banking centers in the previous twelve
months. During the second quarter, the Company announced the closing of one
banking center located in Winnsboro, South Carolina. The deposits and operations
contained in the banking center to be closed will be moved into a larger
Winnsboro, South Carolina location in order to improve the efficiencies for
Fairfield county. The Company recorded a $135,000 write-down on the building
value of the closed location. The closing will be completed during the third
quarter of 2007.

months ended June 30, 2007 from $7,919,000 for the six months ended June 30,
2006, due primarily to increasing market interest rates along with a higher
average balance of loans with a higher average rate due to our increased
emphasis on commercial and consumer loan originations. Interest on deposits and
federal funds sold, combined with interest and dividends on investment and
mortgage-backed securities increased $23,000, or 0.70%, for the six months ended
June 30, 2007 to $3,300,000 from $3,277,000 during the same period in 2006 due

Interest expense on deposit accounts increased $1,176,000, or 32.58%, to
$4,786,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2007 from $3,610,000 during the
same period in 2006 due to higher averages balances and cost of deposits as a
result of higher market rates. The Corporation continues to target lower cost
demand deposit accounts versus traditional higher cost certificates of deposits.
Interest expense on borrowings increased $263,000, or 13.81%, for the six months
ended June 30, 2007 as compared to the same period in the previous year due to
higher market interest rates and higher average balances. Interest expense on
floating rate junior subordinated deferrable interest debentures increased
$98,000, or 28.24%, to $445,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2007 from
$347,000 during the same period in 2006 due to higher average balances, offset
by lower rates as existing higher-cost debentures were repaid with the proceeds
of a new issuance at a lower rate. In addition, on July 21, 2006, the
Corporation completed a private placement of $4 million in trust preferred
securities thereby increasing outstanding balances to $12 million at June 30,
2007 compared to $8 million at June 30, 2006.
Provision for Loan Losses
- -------------------------
During the six months ended June 30, 2007, the provision for loan losses was
$245,000 as compared to $310,000 for the same period in the previous year due to
a decrease in classified loans and charge-offs partially offset by loan growth.
The provision also reflects the Corporation's continued movement from
longer-term, fixed-rate residential mortgage loans to shorter-term, floating
rate-consumer and commercial loans. Consumer and commercial loans carry higher
risk weighted rates in the reserve calculation as compared to residential
mortgage loans. Real estate acquired in foreclosure and loans classified
decreased $840,000 from $7,058,000 at December 31, 2006 to $6,218,000 at June
30, 2007. During the six months ended June 30, 2007, bad debt charge-offs, net
of recoveries, was $58,000 as compared to $130,000 for the same period in the
previous year. Corporation's loan loss allowance at June 30, 2007 was
approximately 1.23% of the Corporation's outstanding loan portfolio and 130.53%
of non-performing loans compared to 1.17% of the Corporation's outstanding loan
portfolio and 212.66% of non-performing loans at December 31, 2006.
The changes in the allowance for loan losses consisted of the following (in

================ ==============
Non-performing loans for the six months ended June 30, 2007 increased $958,000
from December 31, 2006 due primarily to one commercial loan totaling $1,250,000
becoming 90 days delinquent, offset by a decrease in nonperforming residential
real estate loans. This loan is well supported by commercial real estate that
should reduce the exposure to loss for the Corporation.
The allowance for loan loss calculation includes a segmentation of loan
categories subdivided by residential mortgage, commercial and consumer loans.
Each category is rated for all loans including performing groups. The weight
assigned to each performing group is developed from previous loan loss
experience and as the loss experience changes, the category weight is adjusted
accordingly. In addition to loan loss experience, management's evaluation of the
loan portfolio includes the market value of the underlying collateral, growth
and composition of the loan portfolio, delinquency trends and economic
conditions. Management evaluates the carrying value of loans periodically and
the allowance for loan loss calculation will adjust accordingly.
Non-Interest Income
- -------------------
Total non-interest income increased $122,000, or 8.63%, to $1,535,000 for the
six months ended June 30, 2007 from $1,413,000 for the same period in the
previous year. Fees from financial services increased $132,000, or 9.70%, to
$1,493,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2007 from $1,361,000 for the same
period in the previous year. The increase was due to higher service fees as a
result of an increase in transaction accounts.
Non-Interest Expense
- --------------------
For the six months ended June 30, 2007, total non-interest expense increased
$591,000, or 12.96%, to $5,151,000 from $4,560,000 for the same period in 2006.
The increase was due primarily to higher operating costs associated with banking
centers opened in Simpsonville, South Carolina and two in Rock Hill, South
Carolina during the previous twelve months. During the second quarter, the
Company announced the closing of one banking center located in Winnsboro, South
Carolina. The deposits and operations contained in the banking center to be
closed will be moved into a larger Winnsboro, South Carolina location in order
to improve the efficiencies for Fairfield county. The Company recorded a

$135,000 write-down on the building value of the closed location. The closing
will be completed during the third quarter of 2007. Compensation and employee
benefits increased $233,000, or 10.44%, to $2,464,000 for the six months ended
June 30, 2007 from $2,231,000 for the same period in 2006 due primarily to
higher compensation and benefits costs for normal merit salary increases and
additional staff due to the new banking center openings. Occupancy and equipment
expense increased $290,000, or 28.63%, to $1,303,000 for the six months ended
June 30, 2007 from $1,013,000 for the same period in 2006 due primarily to
higher lease expense from the new locations along with the $135,000 write down
for the closed banking center. Advertising/public relations expense increased
$70,000, or 72.16%, to $167,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2007 from
$97,000 for the same period in 2006 due primarily to product and promotion
expenses for the new banking center locations. Loan operations expense increased
$39,000, or 134.48%, to $68,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2007 from
$29,000 for the same period in 2006, due to higher costs associated with
foreclosures. Intangible amortization expense decreased $47,000, or 14.78%, to
$271,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2007 from $318,000 for the same
period in 2006, due to deposit premiums related to branch acquisitions becoming
fully amortized.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
----------------------------------------------------------
The Corporation is committed to following a program of asset and liability
management in an effort to manage the fluctuations in earnings caused by
movements in interest rates. A significant portion of the Corporation's income
results from the spread between the yield realized on its interest-earning
assets and the rate of interest paid on its deposits and other borrowings.
Differences in the timing and volume of repricing assets versus the timing and
volume of repricing liabilities expose the Corporation to interest rate risk.
Management's policies are directed at minimizing the impact on earnings of
movements in interest rates.
The Corporation's Asset/Liability Committee makes pricing and marketing
decisions on deposit and loan products in conjunction with managing the
Corporation's interest rate risk. In addition, the Asset/Liability Committee
reviews the Corporation's securities portfolio, FHLB advances and other
borrowings as well as the Corporation's asset and liability policies.
The primary objective of Asset/Liability management at the Corporation is to
manage interest rate risk and achieve reasonable stability in net interest
income throughout interest rate cycles in order to maintain adequate liquidity.
This is achieved by maintaining the proper balance of rate-sensitive earning
assets and rate-sensitive costing liabilities. The relationship of
rate-sensitive earning assets to rate-sensitive costing liabilities is the
principal factor in projecting the effect that fluctuating interest rates will
have on future net interest income. Rate-sensitive assets and interest-bearing
liabilities are those that can be repriced to current market rates within a
relatively short time period. Management monitors the rate sensitivity of
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities over the entire life of
these instruments.
The Corporation has established policies and monitors results to control
interest rate sensitivity. Although the Corporation utilizes measures such as
static gap, which is simply the measurement of the difference between
interest-sensitive assets and interest-sensitive liabilities repricing for a
particular time period, just as important a process is the evaluation of how
particular assets and liabilities are impacted by changes in interest rates or
selected indices as they reprice. Asset/liability modeling techniques are
utilized by the Corporation to assess varying interest rate and balance sheet
mix assumptions.
NET INTEREST INCOME SIMULATION ANALYSIS. The Corporation analyzes its interest
rate sensitivity position to manage the risk associated with interest rate
movements through the use of interest income simulation. The matching of assets
and liabilities may be analyzed by examining the extent to which such assets and
liabilities are "interest rate sensitive." An asset or liability is said to be
interest rate sensitive within a specific time period if it will mature or
reprice within that time period.
27
Interest income simulations utilizing interest rate shocks are completed
quarterly and presented to the Asset/Liability Committee. The simulations
provide an estimate of the impact of changes in interest rates on net interest
income under a range of assumptions. The interest rate shocks are compared to
board approved policy limits. The simulation incorporates assumptions regarding
the potential timing in the repricing of certain assets and liabilities when
market rates change and the changes in spreads between different market rates.
The simulation analysis incorporates management's current assessment of the risk
that pricing margins will change adversely over time due to competition or other
factors.
Simulation analysis is only an estimate of the Corporation's interest rate risk
exposure at a particular point in time. The Corporation continually reviews the
potential effect changes in interest rates could have on the repayment of rate
sensitive assets and funding requirements of rate sensitive liabilities.
The table below sets forth an approximation of the Corporation's exposure as a
percentage of estimated net interest income for the next twelve month period
using interest income simulation. The simulation uses projected repricing of
assets and liabilities on the basis of contractual maturities, anticipated
repayments and scheduled rate adjustments. Prepayment rates can have a
significant impact on interest income simulation. When interest rates rise,
prepayments tend to slow. When interest rates fall, prepayments tend to rise.
The following table reflects changes in estimated net interest income from rate
shocks of (+) or (-) 100 and 200 basis points in a rising and falling interest
rate environment for the Corporation.
At At
June 30, December 31,
Change in Rates (Basis Points) 2007 2006
------------------------------ ---- ----
+200 +7.30% +3.76%
+100 +4.10% +2.06%
-100 -4.71% -2.42%
-200 -7.13% -5.91%
The Corporation moved into an interest rate risk neutral environment for the
period ending June 30, 2007 as compared to the period ending December 31, 2006
due primarily to growth in prime-based loan products along with a reduction in
short-term borrowings.
The 200 and 100 basis point change in rates in the above table is assumed to
occur evenly over the following twelve months. Based on the scenario above, net
interest income would be positively affected in the twelve-month periods if
rates rose by 100 and 200 basis points, but would be adversely affected if rates
declined by 100 and 200 basis points.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
-----------------------
The Corporation's management, including the Corporation's principal executive
officer and principal financial officer, have evaluated the effectiveness of the
Corporation's "disclosure controls and procedures," as such term is defined in
Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, (the "Exchange Act"). Based upon their evaluation, the principal
executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of the end
of the period covered by this report, the Corporation's disclosure controls and
procedures were effective for the purpose of ensuring that the information
required to be disclosed in the reports that the Corporation files or submits
under the Exchange Act with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC")
(1) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods
specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and (2) is accumulated and communicated
to the Corporation's management, including its principal executive and principal
financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required
disclosure.
28
There has been no change in the Corporation's internal control over financial
reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rule
13(a)-15(e) that occurred during the Corporation's last fiscal quarter that has
materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the
Corporation's internal control over financial reporting.
