Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements

March 31, 2007 (Unaudited)




(1)
        Summary of Significant Accounting PoliciesThe accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements herein have been prepared by 1st Constitution Bancorp (the Company), in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Companys Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, filed with the SEC on April 2, 2007.

In the opinion of the Company, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) which are necessary for a fair presentation of the operating results for the interim periods have been included. The results of operations for periods of less than a year are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year.

Net Income Per Common Share

Basic net income per common share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during each period.

Diluted net income per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding, as adjusted for the assumed exercise of potential common stock options, using the treasury stock method. All share information has been restated for the effect of a 6% stock dividend declared December 21, 2006 and paid on January 31, 2007 to shareholders of record on January 23, 2007.

The following (unaudited) tables illustrate the reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) calculations.

Share-based Compensation

Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted FASB Statement No. 123 (R), Share-Based Payment. Statement 123 (R) requires that compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions be recognized in financial statements. The cost is measured based on the fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued.

The Company adopted Statement 123 (R) using the modified prospective transition method. Under this method, the Company records compensation expense for all awards granted after the date of adoption and for the unvested portion of previously granted awards that remain outstanding as of the beginning of the period of adoption. The Company measures share-based compensation cost using the Black-Scholes option pricing model for stock option grants. The assumptions used in the option-pricing model in 2007 and 2006 were: dividend yield of 0%; expected volatility of 26.6%; risk-free interest rate of 4.53%; and expected term of 7 years. Although the initial fair value of stock options is not adjusted after the grant date, changes in the Companys assumptions may change the value of, and therefore the expense related to, future stock option grants. Forfeitures did not affect the calculated expense
based upon historical activities of option grantees.

Share-based compensation of $32,852 and $23,042 was recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, which related to option grants issued in 2006 plus the unvested portion of options to acquire shares of Company common stock granted prior to January 1, 2006. The Company expenses the fair value of stock awards determined at the grant date on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the award.

Benefit Plans



The Company provides certain retirement benefits to employees under a 401(k) plan. The Companys contributions to the 401(k) plan are expensed as incurred.



The Company also provides retirement benefits to certain employees under a supplemental executive retirement plan. The plan is unfunded and the Company accrues actuarial determined
benefit costs over the estimated



6

service period of the employees in the plan. The Company follows SFAS No. 132, as revised in December 2003, Employers Disclosures about Pensions and Other Post-retirement Benefits and SFAS No. 158, Employers Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Post-retirement Plans-an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106 and 132(R). SFAS No. 132 revised employers disclosures about pension and other post-retirement benefit plans. It requires additional information about changes in the benefit obligation and the fair values of plan assets. It also standardized the requirements for pensions and other postretirement benefit plans to the extent possible, and illustrates combined formats for the presentation of pension plan and other post-retirement benefit plan disclosures. SFAS 158 requires an employer to recognize the over funded
or under funded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan (other than a multiemployer plan) as an asset or liability in its statement of financial position and to recognize changes in that funded status in the year in which the changes occur through comprehensive income.



The incremental effect of apply SFAS No. 158 on individual line items in the December 31, 2006 Consolidated Balance Sheet is as follows (In Thousands):

Redeemable Subordinated Debentures

On April 10, 2002, 1ST Constitution Capital Trust I (Trust I), a statutory business trust and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, issued $5.0 million of variable rate trust preferred securities (the Trust Preferred Securities) in a pooled institutional placement transaction maturing April 22, 2032. Trust I utilized the $5.0 million proceeds along with $155,000 invested in Trust I by the Company to purchase $5,155,000 of floating rate subordinated debentures issued by the Company and due to mature on April 22, 2032 (the Subordinated Debentures). The Subordinated Debentures constituted the sole assets of Trust I, had terms that mirrored the Trust Preferred Securities and were redeemable in whole or part prior to maturity after April 22, 2007. Trust I was obligated to distribute all proceeds of a redemption of the Subordinated Debentures,
whether voluntary or upon maturity, to holders of the Trust Preferred Securities. The Companys obligation with respect to the Trust Preferred Securities and the Subordinated Debentures, when taken together, provided a full and unconditional guarantee on a subordinated basis by the Company of the obligations of Trust I to pay amounts when due on the Trust Preferred Securities. On February 23, 2007, the Company notified Wilmington Trust Company, as Indenture Trustee, of the Companys intention to redeem the Subordinated Debentures on April 22, 2007, and the Company redeemed the Subordinated Debentures on that date, as discussed below.

7

On May 30, 2006, 1ST Constitution Bancorp established 1STConstitution Capital Trust II, a Delaware business trust subsidiary (Trust II), for the sole purpose of issuing $18 million of trust preferred securities (the Capital Securities). The Capital Securities were issued in connection with a pooled offering involving approximately 50 other financial institution holding companies. All of the Capital Securities were sold to a single pooling vehicle.

The proceeds from the sale of the Capital Securities were loaned to the Company under 30-year floating rate junior subordinated debentures issued to Trust II by the Company. The debentures are the only asset of Trust II. Interest payments on the debentures flow through Trust II to the pooling vehicle. Payments of distributions by Trust II to the pooling vehicle are guaranteed by the Company.

Effective April 22, 2007, the Company redeemed of all of the Subordinated Debentures. The redemption price was 100% of the aggregate $5,155,000 principal amount of the Subordinated Debentures, plus approximately $233,786 of accrued interest thereon through the redemption date. As a result of the redemption of the Subordinated Debentures, a like amount of capital securities issued by 1ST Constitution Capital Trust I will also be redeemed under the same terms and conditions. This redemption does not impact the Capital Securities issued by the Companys wholly-owned subsidiary 1ST Constitution Capital Trust II on May 30, 2006.

Variable Interest Entities

Management has determined that Trust I and Trust II (the Trusts) qualify as variable interest entities under FASB Interpretation 46 (FIN 46). The Trusts issued mandatorily redeemable preferred stock to investors and loaned the proceeds to the Company. Each of the Trusts holds, as its sole asset, subordinated debentures issued by the Company. Subsequent to the issuance of FIN 46, and prior to the establishment of Trust II, the FASB issued a revised interpretation, FIN 46(R), the provisions of which were required to be applied to certain variable interest entities, including the Trust, by March 31, 2004, at which time the Trust I was deconsolidated.

In March 2005, the Federal Reserve Board adopted a final rule that would continue to allow the inclusion of trust preferred securities in Tier 1 capital, but with stricter quantitative limits. Under the final rule, after a five-year transition period, the aggregate amount of trust preferred securities and certain other capital elements would be limited to 25% of Tier 1 capital elements, net of goodwill. The amount of trust preferred securities and certain other elements in excess of the limit could be included in Tier 2 capital, subject to restrictions. Based on the final rule, as of March 31, 2007, the Company included all of its then-outstanding $23.7 million in trust preferred securities in Tier 1 capital.

Segment Information

SFAS No. 131,Segment Reporting, establishes standards for public business enterprises to report information about operating segments in their annual financial statements and requires that those enterprises report selected information about operating segments in subsequent interim financial reports issued to shareholders. It also established standards for related disclosure about products
and services, geographic areas, and major

8

customers. Operating segments are components of an enterprise, which are evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision-maker in deciding how to allocate and assess resources and performance. The Companys chief operating decision-maker is the President and Chief Executive Officer. The Company has applied the aggregation criteria set forth in SFAS No. 131 for its operating segments to create one reportable segment, Community Banking.

The Companys Community Banking segment consists of construction, commercial, retail and mortgage banking. The Community Banking segment is managed as a single strategic unit, which generates revenue from a variety of products and services provided by the Company. For example, construction and commercial lending is dependent upon the ability of the Company to fund itself with retail deposits and other borrowings and to manage interest rate and credit risk. This situation is also similar for consumer and residential real estate lending.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February, 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 155, Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments  an amendment of FASB Statements No. 133 and 140 (SFAS 155), to simplify and make more consistent the accounting for certain financial instruments. SFAS 155 amends SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (SFAS 133) and permits fair value re-measurement for any hybrid financial instrument with an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation, provided that the whole instrument is accounted for on a fair value basis. Prior to fair value measurement, interests in securitized financial assets must be evaluated to identify interests containing embedded derivatives requiring bifurcation. The amendments to SFAS 133 also clarify which interest-only and principal-only strips are not subject to the
requirements of SFAS 133, and that concentration of credit risk in the form of subordination are not embedded derivatives. SFAS 155 amends SFAS 140 to allow a qualifying special-purpose entity to hold a derivative financial instrument that pertains to a beneficial interest other than another derivative financial instrument. SFAS 155 applies to all financial instruments acquired or issued after the beginning of an entitys first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006. The adoption of SFAS 155 did not have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.

In March 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement No. 156, Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets - an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140 (SFAS 156). SFAS 156 amends SFAS No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities. SFAS 156 permits, but does not require, an entity to choose either the amortization method or the fair value measurement method for measuring each class of separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities. The adoption of SFAS 156 did not have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.

The Company adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation 48,Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, on January 1, 2007. Previously, the Company had accounted for tax contingencies in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 5,Accounting for Contingencies. As required by Interpretation 48, which clarifies Statement 109,Accounting for Income Taxes, the Company recognizes the financial statement benefit of a tax position only
after determining that the relevant tax authority would more likely than not
sustain

9

the position following an audit. For tax positions meeting the more-likely-than-not threshold, the amount recognized in the financial statements is the largest benefit that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the relevant tax authority. The Company is subject to income taxes in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, and the states of New Jersey and Delaware. Tax regulations within each jurisdiction are subject to the interpretation of the related tax laws and regulations and require significant judgment to apply.

The Company applied Interpretation 48 to all tax positions for which the statute of limitations remained open. The adoption of Interpretation 48 did not have a material impact on the results operations or financial condition of the Company.

In September 2006, FASB Issued Statement No. 157, FairValue Measurements (SFAS 157), which is effective forfiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and for interimperiods within those years. This statement defines fair value, establishes a frameworkfor measuring fair value and expands the related disclosure requirements. The Company iscurrently evaluating the impact the adoption ofSFAS No. 157 will have on its
consolidatedfinancial statements.

At its September 2006 meeting, the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) reached a final consensus on Issue 06-04, Accounting for Deferred Compensation and Postretirement Benefit Aspects of Endorsement Split-Dollar Life Insurance Arrangements.In accordance with the EITF consensus, an agreement by an employer to share a portion of the proceeds of a life insurance policy with an employee during the postretirement period is a postretirement benefit arrangement required to be accounted for under SFAS No. 106 and, therefore, a liability for the postretirement obligation must be recognized under SFAS No. 106 if the benefit is offered under an arrangement that constitutes a plan or under APB No. 12 if it is not part of a plan. The provisions of Issue 06-04 are to be applied through either a cumulative
effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the year of adoption or retrospective application. Issue 06-04 is effective for annual or interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2007. The application of Issue 06-04 is not expected to have a material effect on the Companys financial position or results of operations.

At its September 2006 meeting, the EITF reached a final consensus on Issue 06-05, Accounting for Purchases of Life Insurance Determining the Amount That Could be Realized in Accordance with FASB Technical Bulletin No. 85-4.  Issue 06-05 concludes that in determining the amount that could be realized under an insurance contract accounted fro under FASB Technical Bulletin No. 85-4, Accounting for Purchases of Life Insurance, the policyholder should (1) consider any additional amounts included in the contractual terms of the policy; (2) assume the surrender value on an individual life-by individual-life policy basis; and (3) not discount the cash surrender value component of the amount that could be realized when
contractual restrictions on the ability to surrender a policy exist. Issue 06-05 should be adopted through either (1) a change in accounting principle through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the year of adoption or (2) a change in accounting principle through retrospective application to all prior periods. Issue 06-05 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The application of Issue 06-05 did not have a material effect on the Companys financial position or results of operations.

Forward-Looking Statements

When used in this and in future filings by the Company with the SEC, in the Companys press releases and in oral statements made with the approval of an authorized executive officer of the Company, the words or phrases will, will likely result, could, anticipates, believes, continues, expects, plans, will continue, is anticipated, estimated, project or outlook or similar expressions (including confirmations by an authorized executive officer of the Company of any such expressions made by a third party with respect to the Company) are intended to identify forward-looking statements. The Company wishes to caution readers not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, each of which speak only as of the date made. Such
statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical earnings and those presently anticipated or projected.

Factors that may cause actual results to differ from those results expressed or implied, include, but are not limited to, those listed under Business, Risk Factors and Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 2, 2007, such as the overall economy and the interest rate environment; the ability of customers to repay their obligations; the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses; competition; significant changes in accounting, tax or regulatory practices and requirements; certain interest rate risks; and risks associated with speculative construction lending. Although management has taken certain steps to mitigate any negative effect of the aforementioned items, significant unfavorable changes could severely impact the assumptions used
and have an adverse effect on profitability. The Company has no obligation to publicly release the result of any revisions which may be made to any forward-looking statements to reflect anticipated or unanticipated events or circumstances occurring after the date of such statements.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Summary

The Company reported net income of $1,405,500 for the three months ended March 31, 2007, an increase of 12.0% over the $1,254,758 reported for the three months ended March 31, 2006. Diluted net income per share was $0.37 for the three months ended March 31, 2007 compared to $0.33 reported for the three months ended March 31, 2006. All prior year share information has been restated for the effect of a 6% stock dividend declared on December 21, 2006 and paid on January 31, 2007 to shareholders of record on January 23, 2007.

Key performance ratios remained strong for the three months ended March 31, 2007 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2006. Return on average assets and return on average equity were 1.40% and 15.81%, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2007, compared to 1.38% and 16.91%, respectively, for the corresponding prior year period.

12

A significant factor impacting the Companys net interest income has been the rising level of market interest rates that characterized the marketplace in 2006 and has continued through the first quarter of 2007. The Federal Reserve Banks Open Market Committee raised short-term interest rates four times during 2006, which raised the targeted Federal funds rate to the current 5.25% at March 31, 2007. These increases in short-term market rates drive up the cost of the Companys core deposits. As a result, the Company experienced a 106 basis point increase in the cost of its interest-bearing deposits to 3.90% at March 31, 2007 compared to 2.84% at March 31, 2006. The Companys net interest margin experienced a decrease of 22 basis points to 4.81% at March 31, 2007 compared to 5.03% at March 31, 2006. Despite these interest environment challenges, the Company increased net
interest income by 5.3% to $4,457,673 for the three months ended March 31, 2007 from the $4,234,126 for the three months ended March 31, 2006. The principal factor contributing to the 2007 increase in net interest income was the 12.5% and 9.3% increases in the Securities and Loan portfolios, respectively. This was partially offset by the increase in interest expense resulting from increases in the rates paid on deposit components.

A second significant factor impacting financial results for the first quarter of 2007 was the February 27, 2007 settlement of the transaction whereby the Bank acquired all of the deposit liabilities and related assets of the Hightstown, New Jersey branch banking office of another financial institution. This acquisition added approximately $19.5 million in cash and new deposits to the balance sheet at March 31, 2007 in addition to the impact on most component of income/expense on the statement of income for the three months ended March 31, 2007.

Earnings Analysis

Net Interest Income

Net interest income, the Companys largest and most significant component of operating income, is the difference between interest and fees earned on loans and other earning assets, and interest paid on deposits and borrowed funds. This component represented 87.4% of the Companys net revenues for the three-month period ended March 31, 2007 and 85.3% of net revenues for the three-month period ended March 31, 2006. Net interest income also depends upon the relative amount of interest-earning assets, interest-bearing liabilities, and the interest rate earned or paid on them.

The following table sets forth the Companys consolidated average balances of assets, liabilities and shareholders equity as well as interest income and expense on related items, and the Companys average rates for the three month periods ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The average rates are derived by dividing interest income and expense by the average balance of assets and liabilities, respectively.

The Companys net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis increased by $245,521, or 5.7%, to $4,556,826 for the three months ended March 31, 2007 from the $4,311,305 reported for the three months ended March 31, 2006. The increase in net interest income was attributable to a higher volume of total interest-earning assets and an increased yield on interest-earning assets partially offset by the higher rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities.

Average interest earning assets increased by $36,634,604, or 10.5%, to $384,128,223 for the quarter ended March 31, 2007 from $347,493,619 for the quarter ended March 31, 2006, with increases of $24,153,242 in average total loans and $10,961,203 in average total securities in the three months ended March 31, 2007 when compared to the three months ended March 31, 2006.

14

The Banks average loan portfolio grew by 9.3% (where growth was focused on construction and commercial loans) when compared to the average loan portfolio for the first quarter of 2006. The yields on loans averaged 8.82% for the first quarter of 2007, increasing 73 basis points over the 8.09% yield on loans for the first quarter of 2006. The Banks average securities portfolio increased by 12.5% and the yield on that portfolio increased by 50 basis points for the quarter ended March 31, 2007 when compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2006. Overall, the yield on interest earning assets increased 64 basis points to 7.91% for the quarter ended March 31, 2007 when compared to 7.27% for the quarter ended March 31, 2006.

Average interest bearing liabilities increased by $30,198,480, or 11.0%, to $304,608,308 for the quarter ended March 31, 2007 from $274,409,828 for the quarter ended March 31, 2006. Certificates of deposit increased on average by $20,449,439 for the three months ended March 31, 2007 when compared to the three months ended March 31, 2006. The cost of certificates of deposit increased 111 basis points to 4.82% for the first quarter of 2007 compared to 3.71% for the first quarter of 2006. During June 2006, the Company added approximately $18 million in trust preferred securities, which helped fund the growth of the loan and securities portfolios. Overall, the cost of total interest bearing liabilities increased 106 basis points to 3.90% for the three months ended March 31, 2007 compared to 2.84% for the three months ended March 31, 2006.

The net interest margin (on a tax-equivalent basis), which is net interest income divided by average interest earning assets, was 4.81% for the first three months of 2007 compared to 5.03% for the first three months of 2006.

Non-Interest Income

Total non-interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2007 was $643,741, a decrease of $85,845, or 11.8%, over non-interest income of $729,586 for the three months ended March 31, 2006.

Service charges on deposit accounts represents a significant source of non-interest income. Service charge revenues decreased by $36,704, or 19.7%, to $149,855 for the three months ended March 31, 2007 from the $186,559 for the three months ended March 31, 2006. This decrease was the result of a lower volume of uncollected and overdraft fees collected on deposit accounts during the first quarter of 2007 compared to 2006.

Gain on sales of loans decreased by $86,912, or 27.3%, to $231,777 for the three months ended March 31, 2007 when compared to $318,689 for the three months ended March 31, 2006. The rising rate environment that existed throughout 2006 and continued into the first quarter of 2007 has significantly impacted the volume of sales transactions in the mortgage loan and SBA loan markets and resultant gains resulting from these transactions.

Non-interest income also includes income from bank-owned life insurance (BOLI) which amounted to $90,348 for the three months ended March 31, 2007 compared to $80,600 for the three months ended March 31, 2006. The Bank purchased tax-free BOLI assets to partially offset the cost of employee benefit plans and reduced the Companys overall effective tax rate.

15

The Bank also generates non-interest income from a variety of fee-based services. These include safe deposit box rental, wire transfer service fees and Automated Teller Machine fees for non-Bank customers. Increased customer demand for these services contributed to the other income component of non-interest income amounting to $171,761 for the three months ended March 31, 2007, compared to $143,738 for the three months ended March 31, 2006.

Non-Interest Expense

Non-interest expenses decreased by $68,815, or 2.2%, to $3,021,213 for the three months ended March 31, 2007 from $3,090,028 for the three months ended March 31, 2006. The following table presents the major components of non-interest expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006.

Salaries and employee benefits, which represent the largest portion of non-interest expenses, increased by $127,777, or 7.6%, to $1,812,799 for the three months ended March 31, 2007 compared to $1,685,022 for the three months ended March 31, 2006. The increase in salaries and employee benefits for the three months ended March 31, 2007 was a result of an increase in the number of employees, regular merit increases and increased health care costs. Staffing levels overall increased to 102 full-time equivalent employees at March 31, 2007 as compared to 89 full-time equivalent employees at March 31, 2006. The February 23, 2007 acquisition of the Hightstown branch contributed to this increase by increasing the number of full-time equivalent employees by 4 and the resultant salary and benefit expenses by approximately $25,000.

Regulatory, professional and other fees decreased by $282,605, or 72.2%, to $108,786 for the three months ended March 31, 2007 compared to $391,391 for the three months ended March 31, 2006. During 2006, the Company chose to incur additional accounting, legal and consulting fees primarily as a result of the new internal control compliance requirements contained in Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act in anticipation of the Companys compliance in 2007.

An important financial services industry productivity measure is the efficiency ratio. The efficiency ratio is calculated by dividing total operating expenses by net interest income plus non-interest income. An increase in the efficiency ratio indicates that more resources are being utilized to generate the same or greater volume of income, while a decrease would indicate a more efficient allocation of resources. The Banks efficiency ratio decreased to 59.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2007, compared to 62.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2006.

Provision for Loan Losses

The provision for loan losses was $40,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and $170,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2006. Management considers a complete review of the following specific factors in determining the provision for loan losses:  historical losses by loan category, non-accrual loans, problem loans as identified through internal classifications, collateral values, and the growth and size of the portfolio. In addition to these factors, management takes into consideration current economic conditions and local real estate market conditions. Net charge offs/recoveries amounted to a net recovery of $79,703 for the three months ended March 31, 2007 compared to a net recovery of $2,515 for the three months ended March 31, 2006. See Allowance for Loan Losses on page 20.

Financial Condition

March 31, 2007 Compared with December 31, 2006

Total consolidated assets at March 31, 2007 totaled $421,520,120, increasing by $28,842,574 from $392,677,546 at December 31, 2006. On February 27, 2007, the Bank acquired all of the deposit liabilities and related assets of the Hightstown, New Jersey branch banking office of another financial institution. This acquisition added approximately $19 million in new deposits. In connection with such acquisition, the Company recorded $445,653 in goodwill and $274,604 in core deposit intangibles, which appear as Other Assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheet for the quarter ended March 31, 2007.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and Cash Equivalentsat March 31, 2007 totaled $20,140,928 compared to $10,361,812 at December 31, 2006. Cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2007 consisted of cash and due from banks of $9,212,906 and Federal funds sold/short term investments of $10,928,022. The corresponding balances at December 31, 2006 were $10,336,334 and $25,478, respectively.

Investment Securities

The Banks investment securities represented 25.2% of total assets at March 31, 2007 and 22.8% at December 31, 2006. Total investment securities increased $16,667,724, or 18.6%, at March 31, 2007 to $106,343,528 from $89,675,804 at December 31, 2006.

Securities available for sale are investments that may be sold in response to changing market and interest rate conditions or for other business purposes. Securities available for sale consist primarily of U.S. Government and Federal agency securities as well as mortgage-backed securities. Activity in this portfolio is undertaken primarily to manage liquidity and interest rate risk and to take advantage of market conditions that create economically more attractive returns. At March 31, 2007, available-for-sale securities amounted to $79,765,545, and increase of $9,344,217, or 13.3%, from December 31, 2006.

17

At March 31, 2007, the securities available for sale portfolio had net unrealized losses of $424,980 compared to net unrealized losses of $719,367 at December 31, 2006. These unrealized losses are reflected net of tax in shareholders equity as a component of other comprehensive income (loss).

Securities held to maturity, which are carried at amortized historical cost, are investments for which there is the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity. The held-to-maturity portfolio consists primarily of obligations of states and political subdivisions. At March 31, 2007, securities held to maturity were $26,577,983, an increase of $7,323,507, or 38.0% from $19,254,476 at December 31, 2006. The fair value of the held-to-maturity portfolio at March 31, 2007, was $26,485,649, resulting in a net unrealized loss of $92,334.

During the three months ended March 31, 2007, the Bank purchased securities in the amounts of $11,920,653 and $7,677,917 for the available for sale and held to maturity portfolios, respectively. These purchases were funded primarily by the cash received in the Hightstown branch completed in February 2007.

Loans

The loan portfolio, which represents the Banks largest asset, is a significant source of both interest and fee income. Elements of the loan portfolio are subject to differing levels of credit and interest rate risk. The Companys primary lending focus continues to be construction loans, commercial loans, owner-occupied commercial mortgage loans and tenanted commercial real estate loans.

The following table sets forth the classification of loans by major category at March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005.

The loan portfolio increased $4,878,704, or 1.8%, at March 31, 2007 to $270,021,017 from $265,142,313 at December 31, 2006. The ability of the Company to enter into larger loan relationships and managements philosophy of relationship banking are key factors in the Companys strategy for loan growth. The ultimate collectability of the loan portfolio and the recovery of the carrying amount of real estate are subject to changes in the Companys market regions economic environment and real estate market.

Non-Performing Assets

Non-performing assets consist of non-performing loans and other real estate owned. Non-performing loans are composed of (1) loans on a non-accrual basis, (2) loans which are contractually past due 90 days or more as to interest and principal payments but have not been classified as non-accrual, and (3) loans whose terms have been restructured to provide a reduction or deferral of interest on principal because of a deterioration in the financial position of the borrower.

The Banks policy with regard to non-accrual loans is that generally, loans are placed on a non-accrual status when they are 90 days past due unless these loans are well secured and in the process of collection or, regardless of the past due status of the loan, when management determines that the complete recovery of principal or interest is in doubt. Consumer loans are generally charged off after they become 120 days past due. Subsequent payments on loans in non-accrual status are credited to income only if collection of principal is not in doubt.

Non-performing loans decreased by $627,944 to $3,565,265 at March 31, 2007 from $4,193,209 at December 31, 2006. The largest segment of non-accrual loans represents unfinished residential construction where litigation has commenced and workout negotiations are in process. The balance of the non-performing loans are centered in commercial loans for which litigation has commenced. The table below sets forth non-performing assets and risk elements in the Banks portfolio by type for the years indicated. As the table demonstrates, non-performing loans to total loans decreased to 1.32% at March 31, 2007 from 1.58% at December 31, 2006 for the reasons previously stated, but loan quality is still considered to be strong. This was accomplished through quality loan underwriting, a proactive approach to loan monitoring and aggressive workout strategies.

Non-performing assets decreased by $627,944 to $3,565,265 at March 31, 2007 from $4,193,209 at December 31, 2006. Non-performing assets represented 0.85% of total assets at March 31, 2007 and 1.07% at December 31, 2006. Non-performing loans as a percentage of total loans were 1.32% at March 31, 2007, compared to 1.58% at December 31, 2006.

The Bank had no loans classified as restructured loans at March 31, 2007 or December 31, 2006.

At March 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, the Bank had no loans that were 90 days or more past due but still accruing interest.

Management takes a proactive approach in addressing delinquent loans. The Companys President meets weekly with all loan officers to review the status of credits past-due ten days or more. An action plan is discussed for each of the loans to determine the steps necessary to induce the borrower to cure the delinquency and restore the loan to a current status. Also, delinquency notices are system generated when loans are five days past-due and again at 15 days past-due.

In most cases, the Companys collateral is real estate and when the collateral is foreclosed upon, the real estate is carried at the lower of fair market value less estimated selling costs, or at cost. The amount, if any, by which the recorded amount of the loan exceeds the fair market value of the asset is a loss which is charged to the allowance for loan losses at the time of foreclosure or repossession. Resolution of a past-due loan can be delayed if the borrower files a bankruptcy petition because collection action cannot be continued unless the Company first obtains relief from the automatic stay provided by the bankruptcy code.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level sufficient in the opinion of management to absorb estimated credit losses in the loan portfolio as of the date of the financial statements. The allowance for loan losses is a valuation reserve available for losses incurred or inherent in the loan portfolio and other extensions of credit. The determination of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is a critical accounting policy of the Company.

The Companys primary lending emphasis is the origination of commercial and commercial real estate loans, including construction loans. Based on the composition of the loan portfolio, the primary risks inherent in it are deteriorating credit quality, increases in interest rates, a decline in the economy, and a decline in New Jersey real estate market values. Any one or a combination of these events may adversely affect the loan portfolio and may result in increased delinquencies, loan losses and increased future provision levels.

All, or part, of the principal balance of commercial and commercial real estate loans, and construction loans are charged off to the allowance as soon as it is determined that the repayment of all, or part, of the principal balance is unlikely. Consumer loans are generally charged off no later than 120 days past due on a contractual basis, earlier in the event of bankruptcy, or if there is an amount deemed uncollectible.Because all identified losses are immediately charged off, no portion of the allowance for loan and lease losses is restricted to any individual loan or groups of loans, and the entire allowance is available to absorb any and all loan and lease losses.

20

Management reviews the adequacy of the allowance on at least a quarterly basis to ensure that the provision for loan and lease losses has been charged against earnings in an amount necessary to maintain the allowance at a level that is adequate based on managements assessment of probable estimated losses. The Companys methodology for assessing the adequacy of the allowance for loan and lease losses consists of several key elements. These elements include a specific reserve for doubtful or high risk loans, an allocated reserve, and an unallocated portion. The Company consistently applies the following comprehensive methodology.

During the quarterly review of the allowance for loan and lease losses, management of the Company considers a variety of factors that include:



        General economic conditions.
        Trends in charge-offs.
        Trends and levels of delinquent loans.
        Trends and levels of non-performing loans, including loans over 90 days delinquent.
        Trends in volume and terms of loans.
        Levels of allowance for specific classified loans.
        Credit concentrations.

The specific reserve for high risk loans is established for specific commercial loans, commercial real estate loans, and construction loans which have been identified by management as being high risk loan assets. These high risk loans are assigned a doubtful risk rating grade because the loan has not performed according to payment terms and there is reason to believe that repayment of the loan principal in whole, or part, is unlikely. The specific portion of the allowance is the total amount of potential unconfirmed losses for these individual doubtful loans. To assist in determining the fair value of loan collateral, the Company often utilizes independent third party qualified appraisal firms which in turn employ their own criteria and assumptions that may include occupancy rates, rental rates, and property expenses, among others.

The second category of reserves consists of the allocated portion of the allowance. The allocated portion of the allowance is determined by taking pools of loans outstanding that have similar characteristics and applying historical loss experience for each pool. This estimate represents the potential unconfirmed losses within the portfolio. Individual loan pools are created for commercial and commercial real estate loans, construction loans, and for the various types of loans to individuals. The historical estimation for each loan pool is then adjusted to account for current conditions, current loan portfolio performance, loan policy or management changes, or any other factor which may cause future losses to deviate from historical levels.

The Company also maintains an unallocated allowance. The unallocated allowance is used to cover any factors or conditions which may cause a potential loan loss but are not specifically identifiable. It is prudent to maintain an unallocated portion of the allowance because no matter how detailed an analysis of potential loan losses is performed, these estimates by definition lack precision. Management must make estimates using assumptions and information which is often subjective and changing rapidly. At March 31, 2007, management believed that the allowance for loan losses and nonperforming loans was adequate.

21

The allowance for loan losses amounted to $3,348,063 at March 31, 2007, an increase of $19,703 from December 31, 2006. The ratio of the allowance for loan losses to total loans was 1.19% at March 31, 2007 and 1.16% at December 31, 2006, respectively. Management believes the quality of the loan portfolio remains strong and that the allowance for loan losses is adequate in relation to credit risk exposure levels.

The following table presents, for the periods indicated, an analysis of the allowance for loan losses and other related data.

Deposits



Deposits, which include demand deposits (interest bearing and non-interest bearing), savings and time deposits, are a fundamental and cost-effective source of funding. The Company offers a variety of products designed to attract and retain customers, with the Companys primary focus being on building and expanding long-term relationships.

22

Total deposits increased $28,057,223, or 9.0%, to $340,781,645 at March 31, 2007 from $312,724,422 at December 31, 2006. On February 27, 2007, the Bank acquired all of the deposit liabilities and related assets of the Hightstown, New Jersey branch banking office of another financial institution. This acquisition added approximately $19 million in new deposits.

Borrowings

Borrowings are mainly comprised of fixed rate convertible advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) and federal funds purchased. These borrowings are primarily used to fund asset growth not supported by deposit generation. The balance of other borrowings at March 31, 2007 consisted of long-term FHLB borrowings of $15,500,000. The balance of borrowings at December 31, 2006 consisted of long-term FHLB borrowings of $15,500,000 and overnight funds purchased of $1,700,000. FHLB advances are fully secured by marketable securities.

Shareholders Equity And Dividends

Shareholders equity at March 31, 2007 totaled $36,833,292, an increase of $1,636,722, or 4.7%, from $35,196,570 at December 31, 2006. Book value per common share rose to $9.84 at March 31, 2007 from $9.40 at December 31, 2006. The ratio of shareholders equity to total assets was 8.75% at March 31, 2007 and 8.96% at December 31, 2006.

The increase in shareholders equity and book value per share resulted primarily from net income of $1,405,500 and the decrease in unrealized holding losses on available for sale securities.

The Companys stock is listed for trading on the Nasdaq Global Market System, under the symbol FCCY.

In 2005, the Board of Directors authorized a common stock repurchase program that allows for the repurchase of a limited number of the Companys shares at managements discretion on the open market. The Company undertook this repurchase program in order to increase shareholder value. A table disclosing repurchases of Company shares made during the quarter ended March 31, 2007 is set forth under Part II, Item 2 of this report,Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

The minimum regulatory capital requirements for financial institutions require institutions to have a Tier 1 capital to average assets ratio of 4.0%, a Tier 1 capital to risk weighted assets ratio of 4.0% and a total capital to risk weighted assets ratio of 8.0%. To be considered well capitalized, an institution must have a minimum Tier 1 leverage ratio of 5.0%. At March 31, 2007, the ratios of the Company exceeded the ratios required to be considered well capitalized. It is managements goal to monitor and maintain adequate capital levels to continue to support asset growth and continue its status as a well-capitalized institution.

Liquidity

At March 31, 2007, the amount of liquid assets remained at a level management deemed adequate to ensure that contractual liabilities, depositors withdrawal requirements, and other operational and customer credit needs could be satisfied.

Liquidity measures the ability to satisfy current and future cash flow needs as they become due. Liquidity management refers to the Companys ability to support asset growth while satisfying the borrowing needs and deposit withdrawal requirements of customers. In addition to maintaining liquid assets, factors such as capital position, profitability, asset quality and availability of funding affect a banks ability to meet its liquidity needs. On the asset side, liquid funds are maintained in the form of cash and cash equivalents, Federal funds sold, investment securities held to maturity maturing within one year, securities available for sale and loans held for sale. Additional asset-based liquidity is derived from scheduled loan repayments as well as investment repayments of principal and interest from mortgage-backed securities. On the liability side, the primary source of
liquidity is the ability to generate core deposits. Short-term borrowings are used as supplemental funding sources when growth in the core deposit base does not keep pace with that of earnings assets.

The Bank has established a borrowing relationship with the FHLB and a correspondent bank which further supports and enhances liquidity. At March 31, 2007, the Bank maintained an Overnight Line of Credit at the FHLB in the amount of $16,176,500 plus a One-Month Overnight Repricing Line of Credit of $10,176,500. Advances issued under these programs are subject to FHLB stock level and collateral requirements. Pricing of these advances may fluctuate based on existing market conditions. The Bank also maintains an unsecured Federal funds line of $13,500,000 with a correspondent bank.

24

The Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows present the changes in cash from operating, investing and financing activities. At March 31, 2007, the balance of cash and cash equivalents was $20,140,928.

Net cash provided by operating activities totaled $5,522,027 in the three months ended March 31, 2007 compared to $8,325,217 in the three months ended March 31, 2006. The primary sources of funds are net income from operations adjusted for provision for loan losses, depreciation expenses, and net proceeds from sales of loans held for sale.

Net cash used in investing activities totaled $2,585,895 in the three months ended March 31, 2007 compared to $4,053,950 used in investing activities in the three months ended March 31, 2006. The current period amount was primarily the result of investment securities purchases partially offset by the cash and cash equivalents acquired with the Hightstown branch.

Net cash provided by financing activities amounted to $6,842,984 in the three months ended March 31, 2007 compared to $5,652,768 used in financing activities in the three months ended March 31, 2006. The current period amount resulted primarily from an increase in deposits combined with a decrease in borrowings during the three months period ended March 31, 2007.

The securities portfolio is also a source of liquidity, providing cash flows from maturities and periodic repayments of principal. During the three months ended March 31, 2007, maturities and prepayments of investment securities totaled $3,213,855. Another source of liquidity is the loan portfolio, which provides a flow of payments and maturities.

The Company anticipates that cash and cash equivalents on hand, the cash flow from assets as well as other sources of funds will provide adequate liquidity for the Companys future operating, investing and financing needs, including the April 22, 2007 redemption of the Trust I securities which required a payment of approximately $5,388,786. Management will continue to monitor the Companys liquidity and maintain it at a level that it deems adequate and not excessive.

Interest Rate Sensitivity Analysis

The largest component of the Companys total income is net interest income, and the majority of the Companys financial instruments are composed of interest rate-sensitive assets and liabilities with various terms and maturities. The primary objective of management is to maximize net interest income while minimizing interest rate risk. Interest rate risk is derived from timing differences in the repricing of assets and liabilities, loan prepayments, deposit withdrawals, and differences in lending and funding rates. Management actively seeks to monitor and control the mix of interest rate-sensitive assets and interest rate-sensitive liabilities.

The Company continually evaluates interest rate risk management opportunities, including the use of derivative financial instruments. Management believes that hedging instruments currently available are not cost-effective, and therefore, has focused its efforts on increasing the Companys spread by attracting lower-cost retail deposits.

Item 3.
        Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market RiskTo measure the impacts of longer-term asset and liability mismatches beyond two years, the Company utilizes Modified Duration of Equity and Economic Value of Portfolio Equity (EVPE) models. The modified duration of equity measures the potential price risk of equity to changes in interest rates. A longer modified duration of equity indicates a greater degree of risk to rising interest rates. Because of balance sheet optionality, an EVPE analysis is also used to dynamically model the present value of asset and liability cash flows, with rates ranging up or down 200 basis points. The economic value of equity is likely to be different as interest rates change. Results falling outside prescribed ranges require action by management. At March 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, the Companys variance in the economic value equity as a percentage of assets with an instantaneous and
sustained parallel shift of 200 basis points is within the negative 3% guideline, as shown in the tables below.

The market capitalization of the Company should not be equated to the EVPE, which only deals with the valuation of balance sheet cash flows using conservative assumptions. Calculated core deposit premiums may be less than what is available in an outright sale. The model does not consider potential premiums on floating rate loan sales, the impact of overhead expense, non-interest income, taxes, industry market price multiples and other factors reflected in the market capitalization of a company.

The following tables set forth certain information relating to the Companys financial instruments that are sensitive to changes in interest rates, categorized by expected maturity or repricing and the instruments fair value at March 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006.
