                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

         The consolidated financial information included herein is unaudited;
         however, such information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely
         of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of
         management, necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim
         period.

         The results of operations for the period ended June 30, 2003 are not
         necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.


NOTE 2.  STOCK COMPENSATION PLANS

         At June 30, 2003, the Company has two stock-based employee compensation
         plans. The Company accounts for those plans under the recognition and
         measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock
         Issued to Employees, and related Interpretations. No stock-based
         employee compensation cost is reflected in net income (loss), as all
         options granted under those plans had an exercise price equal to the
         market value of the underlying stock on the date of grant. The Company
         also has remaining options outstanding that were granted to certain
         executive officers under employee agreements. The following table
         illustrates the effect on net income (loss) and earnings (losses) per
         share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions
         of SFAS Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, to
         stock-based employee compensation.

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

The following is management's discussion and analysis of certain significant
factors which have affected the financial position and operating results of
Chestatee Bancshares, Inc. and its bank subsidiary, Chestatee State Bank, and
its nonbank subsidiaries, Chestatee Financial Services, Inc. and Chestatee
Residential Mortgage, Inc., during the period included in the accompanying
consolidated financial statements.

Forward Looking Statements

Certain of the statements made herein under the caption "Management's Discussion
and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" ("MD&A") are
forward-looking statements for purposes of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "Securities Act") and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the "Exchange Act"), and as such may involve known and unknown risks,
uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance
or achievements of the Company to be materially different from future results,
performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking
statements. Such forward looking statements include statements using the words
such as "may," "will," "anticipate," "should," "would," "believe,"
"contemplate," "expect," "estimate," "continue," "may," "intend," or other
similar words and expressions of the future. Our actual results may differ
significantly from the results we discuss in these forward-looking statements.

These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties and may not be
realized due to a variety of factors, including, without limitation: the effects
of future economic conditions; governmental monetary and fiscal policies, as
well as legislative and regulatory changes; the risks of changes in interest
rates on the level and composition of deposits, loan demand, and the values of
loan collateral, securities, and other interest-sensitive assets and
liabilities; interest rate risks; the effects of competition from other
commercial banks, thrifts, mortgage banking firms, consumer finance companies,
credit unions, securities brokerage firms, insurance companies, money market and
other mutual funds and other financial institutions operating in our market area
and elsewhere, including institutions operating regionally, nationally, and
internationally, together with such competitors offering banking products and
services by mail, telephone, computer, and the Internet.

Critical Accounting Policies

We have adopted various accounting policies which govern the application of
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States in the preparation
of our financial statements. Our significant accounting policies are described
in the footnotes to the consolidated financial statements at December 31, 2002
as filed on our annual report on Form 10-KSB.

                                       9
<PAGE>
Certain accounting policies involve significant judgments and assumptions by us
which have a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets and
liabilities. We consider these accounting policies to be critical accounting
policies. The judgments and assumptions we use are based on historical
experience and other factors, which we believe to be reasonable under the
circumstances. Because of the nature of the judgments and assumptions we make,
actual results could differ from these judgments and estimates which could have
a material impact on our carrying values of assets and liabilities and our
results of operations.

We believe the allowance for loan losses is a critical accounting policy that
requires the most significant judgments and estimates used in preparation of our
consolidated financial statements. Refer to the portion of this discussion that
addresses our allowance for loan losses for a description of our processes and
methodology for determining our allowance for loan losses.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We monitor our liquidity resources on an ongoing basis. Our liquidity is also
monitored on a periodic basis by State and Federal regulatory authorities. As of
June 30, 2003, our liquidity, as determined under guidelines established by
regulatory authorities and internal policy, was satisfactory.

At June 30, 2003, our capital ratios were adequate based on regulatory minimum
capital requirements. The minimum capital requirements and the actual capital
ratios on a consolidated and bank-only basis are as follows:

                                              Actual
                                    ----------------------------
                                                                       Minimum
                                                                     Regulatory
                                    Consolidated         Bank        Requirement
                                    -------------      ---------     -----------

      Leverage capital ratios          11.05 %          10.72 %        4.00 %
      Risk-based capital ratios:
         Core capital                  12.82            12.43          4.00
         Total capital                 14.08            13.69          8.00

These ratios may decline as asset growth continues, but are expected to exceed
the minimum regulatory requirements. Future earnings and proceeds from our stock
offerings will assist in keeping these ratios at satisfactory levels.

Off-Balance Sheet Risk

We are a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the
normal course of business to meet the financing needs of our customers. These
financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters
of credit. Such commitments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk
and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheets.

                                       10
<PAGE>
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 and conditional obligations as we do
for on-balance sheet instruments. A summary of our commitments is as follows:


                                                     June 30, 2003

       Letters of credit                                        1,562
                                                ----------------------
                                                $              30,433
                                                ======================

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as
there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Since many
of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total
commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The
amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by us upon extension of
credit, is based on our credit evaluation of the customer.

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by us to guarantee
the performance of a customer to a third party. Those letters of credit are
primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements. The
credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as
that involved in extending loans to customers. Collateral is required in
instances which we deem necessary.

Our total assets grew by 16% for the six months of 2003. Deposit growth of $26.4
million and proceeds from the sale of common stock of $1.7 million was primarily
invested in loans, securities and fed funds. Our ratio of loans to deposits and
other borrowings has decreased to 86% at June 30, 2003 from 92% at December 31,
2002, as deposit growth outpaced loan growth during the first six months of
2003. Our total equity increased by $1.2 million, consisting of proceeds from
the sale of common stock of $1.7 million less the year-to-date net loss of
$510,000.

Our net interest income has increased by $351,000 and $884,000 for the second
quarter and first six months of 2003, respectively, as compared to the same
periods in 2002. Our net interest margin increased to 4.12% during the first six
months of 2003 as compared to 3.93% during the first six months of 2002 and to
4.03% for the entire year of 2002. The increase in net interest income is due
primarily to the increased volume of average loans and investment securities
outstanding. The increase in net interest margin is largely due to fixed rate
time deposits that have matured and repriced to a lower rate over the past
twelve months. Yields earned on loans have decreased to 7.14% in the first six
months of 2003 as compared to 7.70% in the first six months of 2002. The cost of
funds has decreased as well, as deposits have been able to be repriced as they
have matured. Our cost of funds decreased to 2.67% in the first six months of
2003 as compared to 3.93% in the first six months of 2002.

The provision for loan losses was $1,996,000 and $2,173,000 for the second
quarter and first six months of 2003, respectively. These provisions are an
increase from the comparable periods in 2002 by $1,790,000 and $1,833,000,
respectively. The amounts provided are due to loan growth, increased nonaccrual
and past due loans and to our assessment of the inherent risk in the portfolio.
Approximately 90% of the $1,996,000 in provision for loan loss booked during the
second quarter of 2003 was associated with loans to four commercial borrowers
which represent approximately 5% of the total loan portfolio. These loans were
deemed to present increased risk due to the impact of adverse economic
conditions and increased competition in their markets. At June 30, 2003, these
loans made up 86% of the balance of nonaccrual loans, with the remaining balance
included in the following table as potential problem loans. In light of our
assessment of current overall economic conditions, larger reserve allocations
were deemed appropriate for loans classified as substandard or special mention.

Nonaccrual loans of $2,746,000 at June 30, 2003 consist of $216,000 of
commercial loans, $2,002,000 of real estate loans and $528,000 of other consumer
loans. Loans past due ninety days or more and still accruing interest of
$209,000 at June 30, 2003 consists of real estate loans of $13,000 and other
consumer loans of $196,000. These loans were identified through our loan
evaluation process and have been properly considered in the determination of the
allowance for loan losses. Management believes that the $4,267,000 in the
allowance for loan losses at June 30, 2003, or 2.74% of total net outstanding
loans, is adequate to absorb known risks in the portfolio. No assurance can be
given, however, that increased loan volume, adverse economic conditions or other
circumstances will not result in increased losses in our loan portfolio.


Information with respect to nonaccrual, past due, restructured, and potential
problem loans at June 30, 2003 and 2002 is as follows:

Potential problem loans are defined as loans about which we have serious doubts
as to the ability of the borrower to comply with the present loan repayment
terms and which may cause the loan to be placed on nonaccrual status, to become
past due more than ninety days, or to be restructured.

It is our policy to discontinue the accrual of interest income when, in the
opinion of management, collection of such interest becomes doubtful. This status
is accorded interest when (1) there is a significant deterioration in the
financial condition of the borrower and full repayment of principal and interest
is not expected and (2) the principal or interest is more than ninety days past
due, unless the loan is both well-secured and in the process of collection.

Loans classified for regulatory purposes as loss, doubtful, substandard, or
special mention that have not been included in the table above do not represent
or result from trends or uncertainties which management reasonably expects will
materially impact future operating results, liquidity or capital resources.
Management is not aware of any information that causes it to have serious doubts
as to the ability of borrowers to comply with the loan repayment terms.

</TABLE>

The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level that is deemed
appropriate by management to adequately cover all known and inherent risks in
the loan portfolio. Management's evaluation of the loan portfolio includes a
loan classification program. Under the program, as each loan is made, we assign
a loan grade. Each loan grade is assigned an allowance percentage determined
based on our experience specifically and the historical experience of the
banking industry generally. Loan classifications are then subject to periodic
review by the responsible lending officers and by senior management based upon
their judgment, our loan loss experience, current economic conditions that may
affect the borrower's ability to repay, lender requirements, the underlying
collateral value of the loans and other appropriate information. Management
relies predominantly on this ongoing review of the loan portfolio to assess the
risk characteristics of the portfolio in the aggregate and to determine
adjustments, if any, to our allowance for loan losses. Based upon this ongoing
review, we may identify loans that could be impaired. A loan is considered
impaired when it is probable that we will be unable to collect all principal and
interest due in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement.
When we identify a loan as impaired, the allowance for loan losses is increased
if we determine that the amount of impairment is in excess of the allowance
determined under our loan classification program. We maintain an allowance for
loan losses of no less than 1.0% of outstanding loans at all times.

Other income has increased by $252,000 and $347,000 for the second quarter and
the first six months of 2003, respectively, as compared to the same period in
2002. These year to date increases are due primarily to increased service
charges on deposit accounts of $146,000, gain on sale of securities of $29,000,
and gain on sale of loans of $144,000.

Other expenses increased by $174,000 and $501,000 for the second quarter and the
first six months of 2003, respectively, as compared to the same period in 2002.
Year to date salaries and employee benefits increased by $225,000, equipment and
occupancy expenses increased by $164,000, and other operating expenses increased
by $111,000. Salaries and employee benefits have increased due to an increase in
the number of full time equivalent employees to 70 at June 30, 2003 from 60 at
June 30, 2002 and to other annual salary increases. The increase in the number
of employees is due to hiring additional officers and employees to staff a new
branch which opened in May, 2003 and to our overall growth. The increases in
equipment and occupancy expenses and other operating expenses are due to our
overall growth.

We have recorded income tax benefits of $398,000 and $285,000 for the second
quarter and the first six months of 2003, respectively. The rate of tax as a
percentage of pretax income was (36%).

We are not aware of any known trends, events or uncertainties, other than the
effect of events as described above, that will have or that are reasonably
likely to have a material effect on liquidity, capital resources or operations.
We are also not aware of any current recommendations by the regulatory
authorities which, if they were implemented, would have such an effect.

ITEM 3.  Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an
evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief
Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, of the design and operation
of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, our Chief
Executive and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and
procedures are effective for gathering, analyzing and disclosing the information
that we are required to disclose in the reports we file under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and
forms. Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer also concluded
that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting
them to material information relating to our company required to be included in
our periodic SEC filings. In connection with the new rules, we are in the
process of further reviewing and documenting our disclosure controls and
procedures, including our internal controls and procedures for financial
reporting, and may from time to time make changes designed to enhance their
effectiveness and to ensure that our systems evolve with our business.

There have been no significant changes in our internal controls or in other
factors that could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to the date
of this evaluation.

                           PART II - OTHER INFORMATION


ITEM 1.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

The Bank brought an action on March 5, 2001 in the Superior Court for Dawson
County, State of Georgia, against Terri and Woody Reece to recover amounts due
following default on a promissory note. The Bank seeks to recover the balance
due of $66,205, plus interest. The Reeces, husband and wife, filed an answer on
April 9, 2001 denying owing any money to the Bank. In addition, the Reeces filed
a counterclaim against the Bank for deliberate and intentional infliction of
emotional distress for a sum not less than $1 million and for unstipulated
punitive damages. The Bank denies any wrongdoing and prevailed on both the suit
on the promissory note and the dismissal of the counterclaim on summary
judgment. An appeal by the Reeces was rejected by the Georgia Court of Appeals,
affirming for the Bank. The Reeces have subsequently filed an appeal with the
Georgia Supreme Court. That appeal is pending.

Management is not aware of any other material pending legal proceedings to which
the Company, the Bank, Chestatee Financial or Chestatee Mortgage are a party or
to which any of their property is subject, other than ordinary routine legal
proceedings incidental to our business.

          The 8,500 shares withheld from the election of nominees for directors
          were withheld from all nominees to the Board of Directors. Thus, both
          proposals for consideration were duly approved by the shareholders.
