             Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

1.       Basis of Presentation

         The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements for Beach
         First National Bancshares, Inc. ("Company") were prepared in accordance
         with instructions for Form 10-QSB and, therefore, do not include all
         disclosures necessary for a complete presentation of financial
         condition, results of operations, and cash flows in conformity with
         generally accepted accounting principles. All adjustments, consisting
         only of normal recurring accruals, which are, in the opinion of
         management, necessary for fair presentation of the interim consolidated
         financial statements have been included. The results of operations for
         the six month period ended June 30, 2001 are not necessarily indicative
         of the results that may be expected for the entire year. These
         consolidated financial statements do not include all disclosures
         required by generally accepted accounting principles and should be read
         in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial
         statements and related notes for the year ended December 31, 2000.

2.       Principles of Consolidation

         The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include
         the accounts of the Company and its subsidiary, Beach First National
         Bank. All significant intercompany items and transactions have been
         eliminated in consolidation.

3.       Earnings Per Share

         The Company calculates earnings per share in accordance with SFAS No.
         128, "Earnings Per Share." SFAS No. 128 specifies the computation,
         presentation and disclosure requirements for earnings per share (EPS)
         for entities with publicly held common stock or potential common stock
         such as options, warrants, convertible securities or contingent stock
         agreements if those securities trade in a public market.


         This standard specifies computation and presentation requirements for
         both basic EPS and, for entities with complex capital structures,
         diluted EPS. Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net
         income by the weighted average common shares outstanding. Diluted
         earnings per share is similar to the computation of basic earnings per
         share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of
         additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the
         dilutive potential common shares had been issued. The dilutive effect
         of options outstanding under the Company's stock option plan is
         reflected in diluted earnings per share by application of the treasury
         stock method.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations.

The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks
and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ materially from the results
discussed in the forward-looking statements, and our operating performance each
quarter is subject to various risks and uncertainties that are discussed in
detail in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the
"Risk Factors" section in our Statement on Form S-2 (Registration Number
333-57120) as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Results of Operations
EARNINGS REVIEW

Our net income was $ 165,344, or $.22 per common share, for the six months ended
June 30, 2001 as compared to a net income of $78,988, or $.11 per common share,
for the six months ended June 30, 2000. The Company's net income was $55,561, or
$.08 per common share, for the three months ended June 30, 2001 as compared to
net income of $30,634, or $.04 per common share, for the same period of 2000.
The improvement in net income reflects the Bank's continued growth, as average
earning assets increased to $62.7 million during the first six months of 2001
from $46.7 million during the same period of 2000. This continued growth can
also be seen as the Bank expands its market presence with the opening of a new
branch in Surfside Beach, South Carolina on June 4, 2001. The return on average
assets for the six month period ended June 30 was .50% in 2001 compared to .31%
in 2000; the return on average equity was 4.83% in 2001 versus 2.50% in 2000.

During the first half of 2001, net interest income increased to $1,295,736, from
$1,025,839 in the same period of 2000. The growth in net interest income
resulted from an increase of $677,538 in interest income, partially offset by an
increase in interest expense of $407,641. For the three months ended June 30,
2001, net interest income increased to $678,986 from $527,151 during the
comparable period of 2000. The net interest spread was 3.15% in the first six
months of 2001 compared to 3.27% during the same period of 2000. The net
interest margin was 4.17% for the six month period ended June 30, 2001 compared
to 4.41% for the same period of 2000.

The provision for loan losses was $184,500 for the six month period and $114,500
for the three month period ended June 30, 2001, compared to $111,732 and $73,000
for the six month and three month periods ended June 30, 2000. Our allowance for
loan losses as a percentage of period end loans was 1.22% at each of June 30,
2001 and 2000. Net charge-offs totaled $51,052 for the first half of 2001. In
the same period of 2000, there were $34,580 in net charge offs. We had three
non-performing loans in the amount of $271,046 at June 30, 2001, of which two
loans totaling $83,903 were guaranteed by the Small Business Administration
(SBA) program. Payoffs for both of these loans were received from the SBA in
July 2001. Additionally, the third loan in the amount of $187,143 is in the
process of foreclosure sale. Non-performing loans were $39,056 at June 30, 2000.

Noninterest income for the six month period ended June 30, 2001 was $169,603,
compared to $130,985 in the same period of 2000. This was due primarily to an
increase of $31,873 in service fees on deposits accounts as a result of $17.7
million growth in deposits from June 30, 2000 to June 30, 2001. For the three
month periods ended June 30, 2001 and 2000, noninterest income was $87,447 and
$69,036, respectively.

Noninterest expense was $1,022,236 for the six month period ended June 30, 2001,
which was an increase of $102,770 over the same period of 2000. For the three
months ended June 30, noninterest expense was $567,658 in 2001 and $474,574 in
2000. These increases in noninterest expense reflect increases primarily in
salaries and employee benefits, and data processing fees due to our continued
growth, including the opening of our first branch in June 2001.

Net Interest Income

Our primary source of revenue is net interest income, which is the difference
between income on interest-bearing assets and interest paid on deposits and
borrowings used to support such assets. Net interest income is determined by the
rates earned on our interest-earning assets and the rates paid on its
interest-bearing liabilities as well as the relative amounts of interest-bearing
assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Presented below are various components
of assets and liabilities, interest income and expense and yields/costs for the
periods indicated.

</TABLE>

As reflected above, for the first half of 2001 the average yield on earning
assets amounted to 8.76%, while the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities
was 5.61%. For the same period of 2000, the average yield on earning assets was
8.79% and the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities was 5.52%. The
decrease in the yield on earning assets is attributable to lower rates earned on
federal funds sold and outstanding loans, which represent a significant portion
of earning assets.

The net interest margin, computed by subtracting interest expense from interest
income and dividing the resulting figure by average interest-earning assets, was
4.17% and for the six-month period ended June 30, 2001, and 4.41% for the same
period of 2000. This decrease was the result of growth in average
interest-bearing deposits of $15.6 million as we continue to expand our core
base of loans and deposits. The rate paid on these deposits continued to be at
higher interest rates than the competition. The overall change in net interest
margin of 24 basis points is reflective of the decreasing rate environment
primarily during the first six months of 2001. As the competitive pressures
created a decrease in the rate on earning assets, the rate paid by the bank on
deposit accounts did not decrease at the same rate or amount.

The following table presents the changes in our net interest income as a result
of changes in the volume and rate of its interest-earning assets and
interest-bearing liabilities. The change in net interest income is primarily due
to increases in the volume of both loans and deposits rather than changes in
average rates.

Provision for Loan Losses

To keep pace with the growth in the loan portfolio, the provision for loan
losses was $184,500 for the first six months of 2001 compared to $111,732 for
the same period of 2000. For the three month periods ending June 30, 2001 and
2000, these figures were $114,500 and $73,000, respectively. The increases were
the result of management's assessment of the adequacy of the reserve for
possible loan losses given the size, mix and quality of the current loan
portfolio. We anticipate loan growth will continue to be strong in 2001 and that
it will continue to increase the amount of the provision for loan losses as the
portfolio grows. See also "Allowance for Possible Loan Losses" below.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income increased to $169,603 in the first six months of 2001 from
$130,985 in the same period of 2000. For the three months ended June 30, 2001,
noninterest income was $87,447 in 2001 and $69,036 in 2000. Service fees on
deposit accounts, the largest component of noninterest income, increased from
$118,344 for the first six months of 2000 to $150,217 during the same period of
2001. This category of noninterest income increased due to growth in the number
of deposit accounts as well as increased fee-related activities of customers.
The net loss on the sale of investment securities increased to $(7,749) from
$(6,104) for the six month period ended June 30, 2001 and 2000, respectively.
These losses primarily relate to paydowns on mortgage-backed securities, and
result from movements in market interest rates since the securities were
acquired.

Noninterest Expense

Total noninterest expense increased from $919,466 for the six months ended June
30, 2000 to $1,022,236 for the same period of 2001, and from $474,574 for the
three months ended June 30, 2000 to $567,658 in the same period of 2001.
The increase in noninterest expense reflects an increase in most expense
categories as a result of the growth of our assets to $73.2 million at June 30,
2001 from $55.0 million at June 30, 2000. Salary and wages increased by $85,294
during the six months ended June 30, 2001 and $48,183 during the three months
ended June 30, 2001 compared to the same periods in 2000. Additionally, employee
benefits increased by $12,738 and $9,161 during these periods. The increases in
salaries and wages in 2001 is a result of hiring more employees to support the
growth of our assets, including the opening of a new branch in the later part of
the second quarter to help expand our presence in the southern part of our
market.

Occupancy expense increased by $11,973, and printing and supplies increased by
$5,242, as a result of the new branch. Depreciation and amortization expense
decreased by $7,770 from the first half of 2000 to the same period of 2001.
However going forward, we will see a steady increase in these expenses as the
depreciation expense for furniture, fixtures and equipment purchased for the new
branch, as well as purchased to update the computer network, is recorded. The
decline in depreciation and amortization for the six months ending June 30, 2001
was due to the fact that equipment purchased when the bank opened in 1996 has
now been fully depreciated.

For the six month period ended June 30, 2001, data processing expense increased
to $72,698 from $45,685 during the same period of 2000. During the three month
period ended June 30, data processing expense increased to $41,415 in 2001 from
$23,162 in 2000. Data processing fees are directly related to increases in the
volume of loan and deposit accounts and associated transaction activity. The
category of other expenses increased to $146,118 for the first six months of
2001 compared to $140,498 for the same period of 2000, and increased to $77,985
during the three month period ended June 30, 2001 from $61,521 in the same
period of 2000. This increase was due to the growth of operating expenses
associated with the expansion of loans and deposits.

The increases in the noninterest expenses noted above were partially offset by a
decrease in legal and professional fees of $39,864 from the first half of 2000
to the same period of 2001. This decrease is due to a final settlement of
pending legal action related to check kiting.

BALANCE SHEET REVIEW

Investment Securities

Total securities averaged $7.6 million in the first six months of 2001 and
totaled $6.9 million at June 30, 2001. In the same period of 2000, total
securities averaged $9.1 million and totaled $8.7 million at June 30, 2000. At
June 30, 2001, the Company's total investment securities portfolio had a book
value of $6.9 million and a market value of $6.9 million for an unrealized net
gain of $35,063. We primarily invest in U.S. Government Agency Mortgage- backed
securities.

At June 30, 2001, short-term investments totaled $2,709,370 compared to
$2,420,111 as of June 30, 2000. These funds are one source of our liquidity and
are generally invested in an earning capacity on an overnight or short-term
basis.

Contractual maturities and yields on our investment securities (all available
for sale) at June 30, 2001 are as follows. Expected maturities may differ from
contractual maturities because issuers may have the right to call or prepay
obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

Loans

At June 30, 2001, net loans (gross loans less the allowance for loan losses)
totaled $57.1 million, an increase of $17.6 million from June 30, 2000. Average
gross loans increased from $36.6 million with a yield of 9.36% in the first six
months of 2000 compared to $51.4 million with a yield of 9.27% in 2001. The
interest rates charged on loans vary with the degree of risk and the maturity
and amount of the loan. Competitive pressures, money market rates, availability
of funds and government regulations also influence interest rates.

Since loans typically provide higher yields than other types of earning assets,
one of our goals is for loans to represent the largest category of earning
assets. Much progress was made in the effort as loans at June 30, 2001 were 82%
of earning assets, versus 78.4% at June 30, 2000.

</TABLE>

The principal component of our loan portfolio at June 30, 2001 and 2000 was
mortgage loans, which represented 59.7% and 60.1% of the portfolio,
respectively. In the context of this discussion, a "real estate mortgage loan"
is defined as any loan, other than loans for construction purposes, secured by
real estate, regardless of the purpose of the loan. We follow the common
practice of financial institutions in our market area of obtaining a security
interest in real estate whenever possible, in addition to any other available
collateral. The collateral is taken to reinforce the likelihood of the ultimate
repayment of the loan and tends to increase the magnitude of the real estate
loan portfolio component. Generally, we limit the loan-to-value ratio to 80%. We
will attempt to maintain a relatively diversified loan portfolio to help reduce
the risk inherent in concentrations of collateral.

The following table sets forth the maturity distribution, classified according
to sensitivity to changes in interest rates, for selected components of the
Company's loan portfolio as of June 30, 2001.

The information presented in the above table is based on the contractual
maturities of the individual loans, including loans, which may be subject to
renewal at their contractual maturity. Renewal of such loans is subject to
review and credit approval, as well as modification of terms upon their
maturity. Actual repayments of loans may differ from maturities reflected above
because borrowers may have the right to prepay obligations with or without
prepayment penalties.

Allowance for Possible Loan Losses

We have established an allowance for loan losses through a provision for loan
losses charged to expense. The allowance represents an amount which we believe
will be adequate to absorb probable losses on existing loans that may become
uncollectible. Our judgment in determining the adequacy of the allowance is
based on evaluations of the collectibility of loans and takes into consideration
such factors as conditions that may affect the borrower's ability to pay,
overall portfolio quality, and a review of specific problem loans. We adjust the
amount of the allowance periodically based on changing circumstances. Recognized
losses are charged to the allowance for losses, while subsequent recoveries are
added to the allowance. A loan is impaired when it is probable that we will be
unable to collect all principal and interest payments due in accordance with the
terms of the loan agreement. Individually identified impaired loans are measured
based on the present value of payments expected to be received, using the
contractual loan rate as the discount rate. Alternatively, measurement may be
based on observable market prices, or, for loans that are solely dependent on
the collateral for repayment, measurement may be based on the fair value of the
collateral. If the recorded investment in the impaired loan exceeds the measure
of fair value, a valuation allowance is established as a component of the
allowance for loan losses. Changes to the valuation allowance are recorded as a
component of the provision for loan losses.

In addition, regulatory agencies periodically review our allowance for loan
losses as part of their examination process, and they may require us to record
additions to the allowance based on their judgment about information available
to them at the time of their examinations.

At June 30, 2001, the allowance for possible loan losses was $702,693, or 1.22%
of outstanding loans, compared to an allowance for possible loan losses of
$486,030 or 1.22% of outstanding loans, at June 30, 2000. We increased the
allowance for possible loan losses by $216,663 over the June 30, 2000 allowance
in order to keep pace with the approximately $17.8 million growth of our loan
portfolio during the period. The increase reflects our belief that the size of
our loan portfolio is a component of overall risk.

In the first six months of 2001, we had net charge-offs of $51,052. In the same
period of 2000, there were $34,580 in net charge offs. We had three
non-performing loans in the amount of $271,046 at June 30, 2001, of which two
loans totaling $83,903 were guaranteed by the Small Business Administration
(SBA) program. Payoffs for both of these loans were received from the SBA in
July 2001. Additionally, the third loan in the amount of $187,143 is in the
process of foreclosure sale. Non-performing loans were $39,056 at June 30, 2000.

The following table sets forth certain information with respect to our allowance
for loan losses and the composition of charge-offs and recoveries for the six
months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000.

Internal growth, resulting primarily from special promotions and increased
advertising generated the new deposits.

Core deposits, which exclude certificates of deposit of $100,000 or more,
provide a relatively stable funding source for the Company's loan portfolio and
other earning assets. The Company's core deposits were $52.3 million at June 30,
2001 compared to $36.7 million at June 30, 2000. A stable base of deposits is
expected to be the Company's primary


<PAGE>

source of funding to meet both its short-term and long-term liquidity needs in
the future. Core deposits as a percentage of total deposits were approximately
80% at June 30, 2001 and 76% at June 30, 2000. The Company's loan-to-deposit
ratio was 87.8% at June 30, 2001 versus 83.1% at June 30, 2000. The average
loan-to-deposit ratio was 88.0% during the first six months of 2001 and 88.2%
during the same period of 2000.


CAPITAL

Under the capital guidelines of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency,
we are required to maintain a minimum total risk-based capital ratio of 8%, with
at least 4% being Tier 1 capital. To be considered "well-capitalized," banks
must meet regulatory standards of 10% for total risk-based capital and 6% for
Tier 1 capital. Tier 1 capital consists of common shareholders' equity,
qualifying perpetual preferred stock, and minority interest in equity accounts
of consolidated subsidiaries, less goodwill. In addition, we must maintain a
minimum Tier 1 leverage ratio (Tier 1 capital to total average assets) of at
least 4%. The "well-capitalized" standard for the Tier 1 leverage ratio is 5%.
At June 30, 2001, our total shareholders' equity was $7.0 million. We were
considered to be "well capitalized" at the bank level for regulatory purposes at
June 30, 2001, as our Tier 1 capital ratio was 11.9%, our total risk-based
capital ratio was 13.1%, and our Tier 1 leverage ratio was 10.6%. The following
chart reflects the risk-based regulatory capital ratios of the Bank at June 30,
2001.

         We believe that we have sufficient capital to fund our activities on an
on-going basis.

LIQUIDITY AND INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY

Our primary sources of liquidity are core deposits, scheduled repayments on our
loans and interest on and maturities of our investments. All of our securities
have been classified as available for sale. Occasionally, we might sell
investment securities in connection with the management of our interest
sensitivity gap or to manage cash availability. We may also utilize our cash and
due from banks, security repurchase agreements and federal funds sold to meet
liquidity requirements as needed. In addition, we have the ability, on a
short-term basis, to purchase federal funds from other financial institutions.
Presently, we have made arrangements with commercial banks for short-term
unsecured advances of up to $3,000,000.

Additionally, we are eligible to receive advances from the Federal Home Loan
Bank of Atlanta, subject to its approval, and have received and repaid such
advances on two occasions in the past two fiscal years. In July 2001, we were
approved to participate in the Federal Home Loan Bank Blanket Lien Program where
the Bank can borrow up to 75% of its outstanding loan balances on 1 to 4 family
residences. We believe that our liquidity and ability to manage assets will be
sufficient to meet our cash requirements over the near term.

We monitor and manage the pricing and maturity of our assets and liabilities in
order to lessen the potential impact that interest rate movements could have on
our net interest margin. To minimize the effect of these margin swings, the



<PAGE>

balance sheet should be structured so that repricing opportunities exist for
both assets and liabilities in roughly equivalent amounts at approximately the
same time intervals. An imbalance in these pricing opportunities at any point in
time constitutes interest rate risk.

Interest rate sensitivity refers to the responsiveness of interest-bearing
assets and liabilities to changes in market interest rates. The rate sensitive
position, or gap, is the difference in the volume of rate sensitive assets and
liabilities at any given time interval. We generally attempt to maintain a
balance between rate sensitive assets and liabilities to minimize the company's
interest rate risks. Interest rate sensitivity can be managed by repricing
assets or liabilities, selling securities available-for-sale, replacing an asset
or liability at maturity or by adjusting the interest rate during the life of an
asset or liability. Managing the amount of assets and liabilities repricing in
the same time interval helps to hedge the risk and minimize the impact on net
interest income of rising or falling interest rates.

<PAGE>


The interest rate sensitivity position at June 30, 2001 is presented below.
Since all rates and yields do not adjust at the same velocity, the gap is only a
general indicator of rate sensitivity.

</TABLE>

We generally would benefit from increasing market rates of interest when we have
an asset sensitive gap and generally would benefit from decreasing market rates
of interest when we are liability sensitive. We are currently liability
sensitive in time frames less than one year and asset sensitive after that.
However, our gap analysis is not a precise indicator of our interest sensitivity
position. The analysis presents only a static view of the timing of maturities
and repricing opportunities, without taking into consideration that changes in
interest rates do not affect all assets and liabilities equally. Net interest
income is also impacted by other significant factors, including changes in the
volume and mix of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities.

IMPACT OF INFLATION

Unlike most industrial companies, the assets and liabilities of financial
institutions such as ours are primarily monetary in nature. Therefore, interest
rates have a more significant impact on our performance than do the effects of
changes in the general rate of inflation and changes in prices. In addition,
interest rates do not necessarily move in the same magnitude as the prices of
goods and services. As discussed previously, we seek to manage the relationships
between interest sensitive assets and liabilities in order to protect against
wide rate fluctuations, including those resulting from inflation.
