NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


(Unaudited)











NOTE 1. NATURE OF BUSINESS





PAB Bankshares, Inc. (the "Company") is a bank holding company whose business is primarily conducted by its wholly-owned commercial bank subsidiary, The Park Avenue Bank (the Bank). The Bank is a state-chartered, member bank of the Federal Reserve System that was originally founded in 1956 in Valdosta, Lowndes County, Georgia. Through the Bank, the Company offers a broad range of commercial and consumer banking products and services to customers located in the local market areas listed below. The Company and the Bank are subject to the regulations of certain federal and state agencies and are periodically examined by those regulatory agencies.

In addition to the banking products and services, the Bank offers brokerage, insurance, annuity, and investment planning services to its customers from its main office in Valdosta, Georgia.





The Company also owns PAB Bankshares Capital Trust I, a Delaware statutory business trust. This non-operating subsidiary was created in 2001 for the sole purpose of issuing trust preferred securities and investing the proceeds in subordinated debt issued by the Company.








NOTE 2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION





The accompanying consolidated financial information of the Company is unaudited; however, such information reflects all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations. The results of operations for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. These statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002.





The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. Significant intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation.





In preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the balance sheet date and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, the valuation of goodwill, the valuation of foreclosed assets, and deferred taxes.

CAUTIONARY NOTICE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS





Some of the statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including, without limitation, matters discussed under the caption "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation", may constitute "forward-looking statements" under the federal securities laws. Forward-looking statements include statements about the competitiveness of the banking industry, potential regulatory obligations, our allowance for loan losses, our net interest margin, our asset quality, our entrance and expansion into higher growth markets, our other business strategies and other statements that are not historical facts. When we use words like "anticipate", "believe", "intend", "plan", "expect", "estimate", "could", "should", "will", and similar expressions, you should consider them as identifying forward-looking statements, although some of these statements may use other phrasing. These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties and are based on our beliefs and assumptions, and on the information available to us at the time that these disclosures were prepared. Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements include, among others, the following possibilities: (1) competitive pressures among depository and other financial institutions may increase significantly; (2) changes in the interest rate environment may reduce margins; (3) general economic conditions may be less favorable than expected, resulting in, among other things, a deterioration in credit quality and/or a reduction in demand for credit; (4) legislative or regulatory changes, including changes in accounting standards, may adversely affect the businesses in which we are engaged; (5) competitors may have greater financial resources and develop products that enable such competitors to compete more successfully than us; (6) adverse changes may occur in the bond and equity markets; (7) war or terrorist activities may cause further deterioration in the economy or cause instability in credit markets; (8) opportunities to expand our presence in growth markets may be unavailable on terms suitable to management; and (9) restrictions or conditions imposed by our regulators on our operations may make it more difficult for us to achieve our goals. Many of such factors are beyond our ability to control or predict, and readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. We disclaim any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.








ITEM 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION





The following discussion and analysis of the consolidated financial condition and results of operations of the Company should be read in conjunction with the Annual Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes included in the Companys 2002 Annual Report on Form 10-K, and is qualified in its entirety by the foregoing and other more detailed financial information appearing elsewhere. Historical results of operations and the percentage relationships among any amounts included, and any trends which may appear to be inferred, should not be taken as being necessarily indicative of trends in operations or results of operations for any future periods.





On May 20, 2002, the Board of Directors adopted a Resolution requested by our primary federal regulator, the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta, which, among other things, restricts us from redeeming our capital stock, paying dividends, modifying existing debt agreements, or incurring additional debt without the prior approval of our banking regulators. The Resolution is the result of an examination that found the Bank to be in less than satisfactory condition due primarily to serious weaknesses identified in the asset quality of the Banks loan portfolio. This Resolution will remain in effect until removed by the regulators.





FINANCIAL CONDITION





Total loans have decreased $26.0 million, or 4.7%, since December 31, 2002. This continues a trend that started eighteen months ago while we were under an examination by our regulators. Since December 31, 2001, total loans have decreased $108.6 million, or 17.0%. During this period, addressing asset quality and other issues identified in that examination has been our top priority, rather than loan production and business development. As a result, we have not generated sufficient new business to offset the maturities and refinancings of our existing portfolio. We believe,  however, that the Banks asset quality is much improved, and we have begun to turn our efforts back to loan production and business development.

On a more positive note, we have made progress in developing business in our metro Atlanta offices. Over the past twelve months, loans in our metro Atlanta offices have grown $71.4 million, or 96.7%, from $73.9 million at June 30, 2002 to $145.3 million at June 30, 2003. As a percentage of total loans, the loans in our metro Atlanta offices have increased from 12.5% at June 30, 2002 to 27.5% one year later. During the second quarter of 2003, we closed our loan production office in Duluth, Gwinett County, Georgia and assigned the servicing of the construction and development loans generated through that office to our Henry County office.





As with most community banks, loan volume is the driver for the remainder of the banks balance sheet. Since our loan volume is down, we have not been aggressive in retaining time deposits. As a result, time deposits in total have decreased $22.6 million, or 7.4%, since year end and we have repaid $12.7 million in advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta (the "FHLB") as matured.





Total stockholders equity represented 9.97% of total assets at quarter end. Equity has grown $3.3 million during the first six months of the year due primarily to the retention of earnings. During the second quarter, we executed two separate leverage transactions totaling $45 million utilizing our excess capital to generate additional net interest income. In summary, we were able to take advantage of a steep yield curve to borrow $45 million ($35 million from the FHLB and $10 million in a reverse repurchase agreement) and invested those funds in higher yielding investments for an initial spread of 2.05%. The spread and resulting return on these investments are subject to interest rate risk that we will monitor on a periodic basis. This is a short-term strategy designed to help support our net interest income over the next two years.








RESULTS OF OPERATIONS





Net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 was $1.73 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, a slight increase compared to $1.7 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, during the same period in 2002. The increase in net income is the net result of a $519,000 decrease in the provision for loan losses and a $18,000 decrease in income tax expense, offset by a $146,000 decrease in net interest income, an $86,000 decrease in other income and a $273,000 increase in other expenses.





Net income for the year ended June 30, 2003 was $3.56 million, or $0.37 per diluted share, as compared to $3.44 million, or $0.36 per diluted share, during the same period in 2002. The increase in net income is the net result of a $975,000 decrease in the provision for loan losses, offset by a $243,000 decrease in net interest income, a $111,000 decrease in other income, a $466,000 increase in other expenses, and a $37,000 increase in income tax expense.





The reasons for these changes are discussed in more detail below.




**-13-**




Net Interest Income


The primary component of a financial institutions profitability is its net interest income, or the difference between the interest income earned on assets, primarily loans and investments, and interest paid on liabilities, primarily deposits and other borrowed funds. For the three months ended June 30, 2003, net interest income on a taxable-equivalent basis was $6.82 million, or $172,000 less than the second quarter of 2002. Interest income decreased $2.07 million, while interest expense decreased $1.90 million. The decrease in interest income was due to the combined effect of a $53.8 million decrease in average earning assets outstanding during the period and a 67 basis point decrease in the average yield earned on those earning assets during the period. The $57.7 million decline in average loans outstanding alone represented $1.03 million of the overall decrease in interest income for the quarter. The decrease in interest expense was due to the combined effect of a $60.8 million decrease in interest-bearing liabilities outstanding during the period and a 100 basis point decrease in the average rate paid on those interest-bearing liabilities during the period. The decline in rates is reflective of the decline in overall market rates since the second quarter of 2002. The $70.0 million decline in average time deposits outstanding represented $716,000 of the overall decrease in interest expense for the quarter, while the change in rate on time deposits represented another $696,000 of the decrease in interest expense.





The net interest margin is net interest income expressed as a percentage of average earning assets. Our net interest margin for the second quarter of 2003 was 4.13%, 24 basis points higher than our net interest margin of 3.89% during the same period in 2002. However, the margin for the second quarter of 2003 was slightly lower than the 4.15% margin earned during the first quarter of 2003. Our ability to maintain our net interest margin going forward will be a challenge as long as interest rates remain constant or slide even lower than the already historically low levels.





The following table details the average balance of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, the amount of interest earned and paid, and the average yields and rates for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002. Federally tax-exempt income is presented on a taxable-equivalent basis assuming a 34% Federal tax rate. Loan average balances include loans on nonaccrual status.

Provision for Loan Losses


For the six months ended June 30, 2003, there was no provision for loan losses recorded, compared to $975,000 for the same period in 2002. Based on our monthly assessments of the allowance for loan losses during the quarter, no provision was needed. No net new loan growth and no material change in the level of nonperforming loans or delinquent loans during the quarter were contributing factors in our assessments.

For the six months ending June 30, 2003, net charge-offs of $1,369,000 was a 36.34% increase compared to $1,004,000 during the same period in 2002. During the second quarter of 2003 we charged off over $800,000 in bankrupt consumer loans. On an annualized basis, our net charge-offs for 2003 equates to 0.50% of average loans, compared to 1.06% for the 2002 fiscal year.





At June 30, 2003, the allowance as a percent of total loans was 2.03%, compared to 2.18% at December 31, 2002. We consider the current level of the allowance for loan losses adequate to absorb losses from loans in the portfolio. We have a comprehensive methodology for determining the adequacy of our allowance for loan losses. This methodology includes an assessment for specific valuations on larger loan lines and nonperforming loans, and an assessment based on environmental factors applied to other homogenous groups of otherwise performing loans. The environmental factors considered in developing our loss measurements include:


- levels of and trends in delinquencies and impaired loans;
- levels of and trends in charge-offs and recoveries;
- trends in volume and terms of loans;
- effects of any changes in risk selection and underwriting standards and other changes in lending policies, procedures, and practices;
- experience, ability, and depth of lending management and other relevant staff;
- national and local economic trends and conditions;
- industry conditions; and
- effects of changes in credit concentrations.

This evaluation is inherently subjective, as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available. While we use the best information available to make the evaluation, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary if there are significant changes in economic conditions or other environmental factors. In addition, regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Banks allowance for loan losses, and may require the Bank to make additions to the allowance based on their judgment about information available to them at the time of their examinations.

The decrease in service charges and fees on deposit accounts is due primarily to lower transaction volume. The increase in mortgage fees is due to a continued increase in volume of mortgage originations and refinancings caused by lower mortgage rates. Gains on the sale of securities during the quarter and year were taken based on market opportunities. The increase in earnings for the quarter on bank owned life insurance was due to an accrual adjustment. Other losses increased during the second quarter of 2003 due to an $84,000 write down on other real estate and repossessions. Other noninterest income decreased in 2003 resulting from a gain of $100,000 recorded on the sale of a branch office in 2002, and an $88,000 refund received in 2002 from a vendor due to past billing discrepancies.

FAS 91 deferred loan cost, a credit against salaries and wages, decreased and resulted in an increase in expense reported during the period. The decline in the deferral of direct loan costs is due to a decline in loan volume experienced during 2003 compared to the same period in 2002. Some of the increase in employee benefits was due to higher premiums from our health care provider of 11% from 2002. An additional employee benefit expense for 2003, which was not incurred during the first half of 2002, was the Employee Stock Purchase Program (ESPP). The Company started the ESPP on July 1, 2002. The program allows for an employee or director to purchase up to $2,000 a year of the Companys stock with the Company matching 50% of the purchase. The ESPP match expense amounted to $21,000 for the second quarter and $56,000 for the year.





Legal and accounting fees were down due to the expenses incurred in the first half of 2002 on the collection and recovery of problem loans and regulatory matters. The remaining expenses decreased due primarily to efficiencies gained from our charter consolidations and the centralization of back office operations and tighter cost controls.





**-18-**




Income Tax Expense


During the second quarter of 2003, income tax expense was $751,000, a 2.47% decrease in comparison to the same period in 2002. Year to date for 2003, income tax expense was $1,606,000, a 2.36% increase compared to the same period in 2002. As a percentage of net income before taxes, income tax expense was 31.1% and 31.3% for the six months ending June 30, 2003 and June 30, 2002, respectively.





LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES





Liquidity is an important factor in our financial condition and affects our ability to meet the borrowing needs and deposit withdrawal requirements of our customers. Assets, consisting primarily of loans and investment securities, are funded by customer deposits, borrowed funds, and retained earnings. Maturities in the investment and loan portfolios also provide a steady flow of funds for reinvestment. In addition, our liquidity continues to be enhanced by a relatively stable core deposit base and the availability of additional funding sources .





The $14.5 million quarter to date decline in deposits was offset by $36 million in FHLB advances made during the quarter. We purchased $59.5 million in investments during the second quarter of 2003, while $15.6 million in investments matured, paid down, or were sold during the same period. Our loan portfolio decreased $17.5 million during the second quarter of 2003. Our liquidity position is sufficient to fund assets when needed and meet liability obligations when they come due. At June 30, 2003, our ratio of liquid assets (defined as the sum of cash and due from bank balances, interest-bearing deposits in other banks, Fed Funds sold, and investment securities) to total assets was 24.0%, compared to 20.7% at December 31, 2002. It is our policy to maintain a ratio of liquid assets to total assets of at least 15%.





Our financial statements do not reflect various commitments and contingent liabilities that arise in the normal course of business. These off-balance sheet financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Such financial instruments are included in the financial statements when funds are distributed or the instruments become payable. Our exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. We use the same credit policies in making commitments as we do for on-balance sheet instruments. Although these amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements, a summary of our commitments as of June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002 are as follows:

Stockholders Equity


The Company maintains a ratio of stockholders equity to total assets that is considered adequate according to industry standards. The Company and the Bank are required to comply with capital adequacy standards established by banking regulators. At June 30, 2003 the Company and the Bank were in compliance with those standards. There are no conditions or events since quarter end that we believe have changed our capital ratings.

The preparation of financial statements and the related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires that management make estimates and assumptions which effect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. We believe that our determination of the allowance for loan losses and the fair value of assets, including the impairment of goodwill, affect our most significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. The Companys accounting policies are described in detail in Note 1 of our Consolidated Financial Statements provided in Item 8 of our 2002 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The following is a brief description of the Companys critical accounting policies involving significant management valuation judgment.





Allowance for Loan Losses


The allowance for loan losses represents managements estimate of losses inherent in the existing loan portfolio. The allowance for loan losses is increased by the provision for loan losses charged to expense and reduced by loans charged off, net of recoveries. The allowance for loan losses is determined based on managements assessment of several factors including, but not limited to, reviews and evaluations of specific loans, changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, current economic conditions and the related impact on segments of the loan portfolio, historical loan loss experiences and the level of classified and nonperforming loans.





Loans are considered impaired if, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Bank will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. The measurement of impaired loans is based on either the fair value of the underlying collateral, the present value of the future cash flows discounted at the historical effective interest rate stipulated in the loan agreement, or the estimated market value of the loan. In measuring the fair value of the collateral, management uses assumptions (e.g., discount rate) and methodologies (e.g., comparison to the recent selling price of similar assets) consistent with those that would be utilized by unrelated third parties.





Managements assessment is inherently subjective, as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available. Changes in various internal and external environmental factors including, but not limited to, the financial condition of individual borrowers, economic conditions, historical loss experience, or the condition of the various markets in which collateral may be sold may affect the required level of the allowance for loan losses and the associated provision for loan losses. Should these environmental factors change, a different amount may be reported for the allowance for loan losses and the associated provision for loan losses.





Estimates of Fair Value


The estimation of fair value is significant to a number of the Companys assets, including, but not limited to, investment securities, other real estate owned, and other repossessed assets. These are all recorded at either fair value or at the lower of cost or fair value. Fair values are volatile and may be influenced by a number of factors. Circumstances that could cause estimates of the fair value of certain assets and liabilities to change include a change in prepayment speeds, discount rates, or market interest rates. Our estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically and the effects of revisions are reflected in the consolidated financial statements in the period they are determined to be necessary.





Fair values for most investment securities are based on quoted market prices. If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on the quoted prices of similar instruments. The fair values of other real estate owned are typically determined based on appraisals by third parties, less estimated costs to sell.





Estimates of fair value are also required in performing an impairment analysis of goodwill. The Company reviews goodwill for impairment on at least an annual basis and whenever events or circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. An impairment would be indicated if the carrying value exceeds the fair value of a reporting unit.

Recent Accounting Standards





In November 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued FASB Interpretation No. 45 ("FIN 45"), Guarantors Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others, an interpretation of FASB Statements No. 5, 57, and 107 and rescission of FASB Interpretation No. 34 . FIN 45 elaborates on the disclosures to be made by a guarantor in its interim and annual financial statements about its obligations under certain guarantees that it has issued. The disclosures required by FIN 45 improve the transparency of the financial statement information about the guarantors obligations and liquidity risks related to guarantees issued. This interpretation also incorporates, without change, the guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 34, Disclosure of Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others , which is being superceded. FIN 45 also clarifies that a guarantor is required to recognize, at the inception of a guarantee, a liability for the obligations it has undertaken in issuing the guarantee, including its ongoing obligation to stand ready to perform over the term of the guarantee in the event that the specified triggering events or conditions occur. The initial recognition and initial measurement provisions of FIN 45 are applicable on a prospective basis to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002, irrespective of the guarantors fiscal year-end. The disclosure requirements are effective for financial statements of interim or annual periods ending after December 15, 2002. The adoption of FIN 45 did not have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.








In May 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 150 ("Statement 150"), Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity . Statement 150 requires certain financial instruments that have characteristics of both liabilities and equity to be classified as a liability on the balance sheet. Prior to the issuance of Statement 150, the Company classified trust preferred securities as a liability on the consolidated balance sheet and its related interest cost as interest expense on the consolidated statement of income, which is consistent with the requirements of Statement 150. Statement 150 is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. Statement 150 will be effected by reporting the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle for contracts created before the issuance date and still existing at the beginning of that interim period. The adoption of Statement 150 did not have an impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK





We are subject to exposure to U.S. dollar interest rate changes and accordingly, we manage our exposure by considering the possible changes in the net interest margin. We do not engage in trading activity nor do we classify any portion of the investment portfolio as held for trading. We do not engage in any hedging activities or enter into any derivative instruments with a higher degree of risk than mortgage-backed securities, which are commonly held pass through securities. Finally, we have no material direct exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk, commodity price risk, and other market risks.





Interest rates play a major part in the net interest income of a financial institution. The sensitivity to rate changes is known as "interest rate risk." The repricing of interest earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities can influence the changes in net interest income. As part of our asset/liability management program, the timing of repriced assets and liabilities is referred to as gap management. It is our policy to maintain a gap ratio in the one-year time horizon between 0.80 and 1.20. However, with interest rates at historic lows and the shape of the interest rate curve, the Company has exceeded policy limits by adjusting the balance sheet to a more asset-sensitive position. At June 30, 2003, our one-year management-adjusted gap ratio of 1.29 was outside of our policy guidelines, however, this exception to policy was mitigated by our strategy to position our balance sheet to benefit from an increase in interest rates.





The table below has two measures of gap; regulatory and management-adjusted. The regulatory gap considers only contractual maturities or repricings. The management-adjusted gap includes assumptions regarding prepayment speeds on certain rate sensitive assets, the repricing frequency of interest-bearing demand and savings accounts, and the stability of core deposit levels, all of which are adjusted periodically as market conditions change. We believe the management-adjusted gap is a more accurate reflection of the interest rate risk in our balance sheet. The management-adjusted gap indicates we are highly asset sensitive in relation to changes in market interest rates in the short-term. Being asset sensitive would result in net interest income increasing  in a rising rate environment and decreasing in a declining rate environment.

We use simulation analysis to monitor changes in net interest income due to changes in market interest rates. The simulation of rising, declining, and flat interest rate scenarios allows us to monitor and adjust interest rate sensitivity to minimize the impact of market interest rate swings. The analysis of the impact on net interest income over a twelve-month period is subjected to increases or decreases in market rates on net interest income and is monitored on a quarterly basis. As of quarter end, the simulation model projected net interest income would increase 5.27% over the next year if market rates immediately rose by 200 basis points. On the other hand, the model projected net interest income to decrease 22.48% over the next year if market rates immediately fell by 200 basis points. The high volatility in our results is due primarily to our asset-sensitive balance sheet mix and our behavioral assumptions for repricing and prepayment speeds. Our policy states that net interest income cannot be reduced by more than 10% using this analysis, and technically, we were outside of policy guidelines at quarter end. However, this exception was mitigated because a further 200 basis point drop was not realistic given that the federal funds rate stood at 1.00%. If market rates immediately fell by 100 basis points, a more plausible, however still unlikely scenario in our opinion, our model projected net interest income to decrease 9.93% over the next year.





The following table shows the results of these projections for net interest income expressed as a percentage change over net interest income in a flat rate scenario for both a gradual change in market interest rates over a twelve-month period and an immediate change, or "shock", in market interest rates.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES





As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and the Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"), of the effectiveness of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, the CEO and the CFO have concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms. There were no changes in the Companys internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with this evaluation that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
