ITEM 1.        DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS.

(a)     BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT

Peoples Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company" or "PBI"), Carrollton, Georgia, was
incorporated as a Georgia business corporation for the purpose of becoming a
bank holding company by acquiring all of the common stock of Peoples Bank of
West Georgia, Carrollton, Georgia (the "Bank") upon its formation. The Company
filed applications to the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the
"Board") and the Georgia Department of Banking and Finance (the "DBF") for prior
approval to become a bank holding company. The Company received Board approval
on December 30, 1996, and the DBF approval on December 18, 1996. The Company
became a bank holding company within the meaning of the federal Bank Holding
Company Act (the "Act") and the Georgia bank holding company law (the "Georgia
Act") on March 3, 1997. The Bank currently is the sole operating subsidiary of
the Company. On October 11, 1996, the Bank received the approval of its Articles
of incorporation from the DBF and its permit to begin business was issued by the
DBF on February 28, 1997. The Bank opened for business on March 3, 1997. The
deposits at the Bank are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
(the "FDIC").

(b)     BUSINESS OF ISSUER

The Bank conducts a general commercial banking business in its primary service
area, emphasizing the banking needs of individuals and small- to medium-sized
businesses. The Company and the Bank conduct business from the new main office
opened in 1999 located at 119 Maple Street, Carrollton, Georgia 30117. The Bank
has also opened a branch office at 6670 Church Street in Douglasville, Georgia.
As of December 31, 1999, PBI and the Bank had consolidated total assets of
approximately $49.6 million, total deposits of approximately $38.8 million and
total stockholders' equity of approximately $8.0 million.

The Company is authorized to engage in any activity permitted by law to a
corporation, subject to applicable Federal regulatory restrictions on the
activities of bank holding companies. The Company was formed for the purpose of
becoming a holding company to own 100% of the stock of the Bank. The holding
company structure provides the Company with greater flexibility than the Bank,
while the Company has no present plans to engage actively in any nonbanking
business activities, management anticipates studying the feasibility of
establishing or acquiring subsidiaries to engage in other business activities to
the extent permitted by law.

The principal business of the Bank is to accept deposits from the public and to
make loans and other investments in and around Carroll County, Georgia, its
primary service area.

The Bank offers a full range of deposit services that are typically available
from financial institutions, including NOW accounts, demand, savings and other
time deposits. In addition, retirement accounts such as Individual Retirement
Accounts are available. All deposit accounts are insured by the FDIC up to the
maximum amount currently permitted by law.

The Bank offers a full range of commercial and consumer loans. The Bank makes
loans to individuals for purposes such as home mortgage financing, personal
vehicles and various consumer purchases, and other personal and family needs.
<PAGE>

The Bank makes commercial loans to businesses primarily in the primary service
area for purposes such as providing equipment and machinery purchases,
commercial real estate purchases and working capital.

The Bank's lending philosophy is to make loans, taking into consideration the
safety of the Bank's depositors' funds, the preservation of the Bank's
liquidity, the interest of the Company's shareholders, and the welfare of the
community. Interest income from the Bank's lending operations is the principal
component of the Bank's income, so therefore prudent lending is essential for
the prosperity of the Bank.

The principal sources of income for the Bank are interest and fees collected on
loans, interest and dividends collected on other investments, and mortgage
brokerage fees. The principal expenses of the Bank are interest paid on
deposits, employee compensation, office expenses, and other overhead expenses.

The Bank's business plan for its initial years of operation relies principally
upon local advertising and promotional activity and upon personal contacts by
its directors, officers and shareholders to attract business and to acquaint
potential customers with the Bank's personalized services. The Bank intends to
emphasize a high degree of personalized client service in order to be able to
provide for each customer's banking needs. The Bank's marketing approach will
emphasize the advantages of dealing with an independent, locally-owned and
managed state chartered bank to meet the particular needs of individuals,
professionals and small-to- medium-size businesses in the community. All banking
services will be continually evaluated with regard to their profitability and
efforts will be made to modify the Bank's business plan if the plan does not
prove successful. The Bank does not currently offer trust or permissible
securities services.

SUPERVISION AND REGULATION

REGULATION OF THE BANK. The operations of the Bank are subject to state and
federal statutes applicable to state chartered banks whose deposits are insured
by the FDIC and the regulations of the DBF and the FDIC. Such statutes and
regulations relate to, among other things, required reserves, investments,
loans, mergers and consolidations, issuances of securities, payment of
dividends, establishment of branches and other aspects of the Bank's operations.

Under the provisions of the Federal Reserve Act, the Bank is subject to certain
restrictions on any extensions of credit to the Company or, with certain
exceptions, other affiliates, and on the taking of such stock or securities as
collateral on loans to any borrower. In addition, the Bank is prohibited from
engaging in certain tie-in arrangements in connection with any extension of
credit or the providing of any property or service.

The Bank, as a state chartered bank, will be permitted to branch only to the
extent that banks are permitted to branch under Georgia law. In January 1996,
the Georgia legislature passed a bill designed to eliminate Georgia's current
intra-county branching restrictions. The new legislation provided that effective
after July 1, 1996, banks in Georgia, with prior approval of the DBF (and the
appropriate federal regulatory authority), could establish additional branches
in up to three new counties in the state per year. On July 1, 1998, full
statewide branching went into effect as Georgia banks may establish new branches
in any county in the state with prior approval of the appropriate regulatory
authorities.

The FDIC adopted final risk-based capital guidelines for all FDIC insured state
chartered banks
<PAGE>

that are not members of the Federal Reserve System effective December 31, 1990.
As of December 31, 1992, all banks are required to maintain a minimum ratio of
total capital to risk weighted assets of 8 percent (of which at least 4 percent
must consist of Tier 1 capital). Tier 1 capital of state chartered banks (as
defined in regulations) generally consists of (i) common stockholders equity;
(ii) noncumulative perpetual preferred stock and related surplus; and (iii)
minority interests in the equity accounts of consolidated subsidiaries.

In addition, the FDIC adopted a minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to total assets
of banks. This capital measure is generally referred to as the leverage capital
ratio. The FDIC has established a minimum leverage capital ratio of 3 percent if
the FDIC determines that the institution is not anticipating or experiencing
significant growth and has well-diversified risk, including no undue interest
rate exposure, excellent asset quality, high liquidity, good earnings and, in
general, is considered a strong banking organization, rated Composite 1 under he
Uniform Financial Institutions Rating System. Other financial institutions are
expected to maintain leverage capital at least 100 to 200 basis points above the
minimum level. Banking regulators continue to indicate their desire to raise
capital requirements applicable to banking organizations, including a proposal
to add an interest rate risk component to risk-based capital requirements. At
December 31, 1999, the Bank exceeded the minimum Tier 1, risk-based and leverage
capital ratios.

The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991, enacted in
December 1991 ("FDICIA"), specifies, among other things, the following five
capital standard categories for depository institutions: (i) well capitalized,
(ii) adequately capitalized, (iii) undercapitalized, (iv) significantly
undercapitalized and (v) critically undercapitalized. FDICIA imposes
progressively more restrictive constraints on operations, management and capital
distributions depending on the category in which an institution is classified.
Each of the federal banking agencies has issued final uniform regulations that
became effective December 19, 1992, which, among other things, define the
capital levels described above. Under the final regulations, a bank is
considered "well capitalized" if it (i) has a total risk-based capital ratio of
10% or greater, (ii) has a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 6% or greater,
(iii) has a leverage ratio of 5% or greater, and (iv) is not subject to any
order or written directive to meet and maintain a specific capital level for any
capital measure. An "adequately capitalized" bank is defined as one that has (i)
a total risk-based capital ratio for 8% or greater, (ii) a Tier 1 risk-based
capital ratio of 4% or greater and (iii) a leverage ratio of 4% or greater. An
"undercapitalized" bank is defined as one that has (i) a total risk-based
capital ratio of less than 8%, (ii) a Tier I risk-based capital ratio of less
than 4% or (iii) a leverage ratio of less than 3%. A "significantly
undercapitalized" bank is defined as one that has (i) a total risk-based capital
ratio of less than 6%, (ii) a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of less than 3% or
(iii) a leverage ratio of less than 3%. A bank is "critically undercapitalized"
if the bank has a leverage ratio equal to or less than 2%. The applicable
federal regulatory agency for a bank that is "well capitalized" may reclassify
it as "adequately capitalized" or "undercapitalized" and subject the institution
to the supervisory actions applicable to the next lower capital category, if it
determines that the Bank is in an unsafe or unsound condition or deems the bank
to be engaged in an unsafe or unsound practice and not to have corrected the
deficiency. As of December 31, 1999, the Bank met the definition of a "well
capitalized" institution.

"Undercapitalized" depository institutions, among other things, are subject to
growth limitations, are prohibited, with certain exceptions, from making capital
distributions, are limited in their ability to obtain funding from a Federal
Reserve Bank and are required to submit a capital restoration plan. The federal
banking agencies may not accept a capital plan without determining, among other
things, that the plan is based on realistic assumptions and is likely to
<PAGE>

succeed in restoring the depository institution's capital. In addition, for a
capital restoration plan to be acceptable, the depository institution's parent
holding company must guarantee that the institution will comply with such
capital restoration plan and provide appropriate assurances of performance. If a
depository institution fails to submit an acceptable plan, including if the
holding company refuses or is unable to make the guarantee described in the
previous sentence, it is treated as if it is "significantly undercapitalized".
Failure to submit or implement an acceptable capital plan also is grounds for
the appointment of a conservator or a receiver. "Significantly undercapitalized"
depository institutions may be subject to a number of additional requirements
and restrictions such as orders to sell sufficient voting stock to become
adequately capitalized, requirements to reduce total assets, and cessation of
receipt of deposits from correspondent banks. "Critically undercapitalized"
institutions, among other things, are prohibited from making any payments of
principal and interest on subordinated debt, and are subject to the appointment
of a receiver or conservator.

Under FDICIA, the FDIC is permitted to provide financial assistance to an
insured bank before appointment of a conservator or receiver only if (i) such
assistance would be the least costly method of meeting the FDIC's insurance
obligations, (ii) grounds for appointment of a conservator or a receiver exist
or are likely to exist, (iii) it is unlikely that the bank can meet all capital
standards without assistance and (iv) the bank's management has been competent,
has complied with applicable laws, regulations, rules and supervisory directives
and has not engaged in any insider dealing, speculative practice or other
abusive activity.

The Bank is subject to FDIC deposit insurance assessments for the Bank Insurance
Fund ("BIF"). The FDIC has implemented a risk-based assessment system whereby
banks are assessed on a sliding scale depending on their placement in nine
separate supervisory categories. Recent legislation provides that BIF insured
institutions, such as the Bank, will share the Financial Corporation ("FICO")
bond service obligation. Previously, only Savings Association Insurance Fund
("SAIF") insured institutions were obligated to contribute to the FICO bond
service. The BIF deposit insurance premium will be less than $.02 per $100 of
BIF insured deposits for the highest-rated institutions.

On April 19, 1995, the federal bank regulatory agencies adopted uniform
revisions to the regulations promulgated pursuant to the Community Reinvestment
Act (the "CRA"), which are intended to set standards for financial institutions.
The revised regulation contains three evaluation tests: (a) a lending test which
will compare the institution's market share of loans in low and moderate income
areas to its market share of loans in its entire service area and the percentage
of a bank's outstanding loans to low and moderate income areas or individuals,
(b) a services test which will evaluate the provision of services that promote
the availability of credit to low and moderate income areas, and (c) an
investment test, which will evaluate an institution's record of investments in
organizations designed to foster community developments, mall and minority owned
businesses and affordable housing lending, including state and local government
housing or revenue bonds. The regulation is designed to reduce the paperwork
requirements of the current regulations and provide regulatory agencies,
institutions, and community groups with a more objective and predictable manner
with which to evaluate the CRA performance of financial institutions. The rule
became effective on January 1, 1996 when evaluation under streamlined procedures
began for institutions with total assets of less than $250 million that are
owned by a holding company with total assets of less than $1 billion.

Congress and various federal agencies (including, in addition to the bank
regulatory agencies, the Department of Housing and Urban Development, the
Federal Trade Commission and the
<PAGE>

Department of Justice (collectively, the "Federal Agencies") responsible for
implementing the nation's fair lending laws have been increasingly concerned
that the prospective home buyers and other borrowers are experiencing
discrimination in their efforts to obtain loans. The Justice Department filed
suit against financial institutions which it determined had discriminated,
seeking fines and restitution for borrowers who allegedly suffered from
discriminatory practices. Most, if not all, of these suites have been settled
(some for substantial sums) without a full adjudication on the merits.

On March 8, 1994, the Federal Agencies, in an effort to clarify what constitutes
discrimination in lending and to specify the factors the agencies will consider
in determining if lending discrimination exists, announced a joint policy
statement detailing specific discriminatory practices prohibited under the Equal
Credit Opportunity Act and the Fair Housing Act. In the policy statement, three
methods of establishing discrimination in lending were identified: (a) overt
evidence of discrimination, when a lender blatantly discriminates on a
prohibited basis, or (b) where there is no showing that the treatment was
motivated by intent to discriminate against a person, and (c) evidence of
disparate impact, when a lender applies a practice uniformly to all applicants,
but the practice has a discriminatory effect on a protected class, even where
such practices are neutral on their face and are applied equally, unless the
practice can be justified on the basis of business necessity.

REGULATION OF THE COMPANY. The Company is a bank holding company within the
meaning of the Federal Bank Holding Company Act (the "Act") and the Georgia bank
holding company law (the "Georgia Act"). As a bank holding company, the Company
is required to file with the Federal Reserve Board (the "Board") an annual
report and such additional information as the Board may require pursuant to the
Act. The Board may also make examinations of the Company and each of its
subsidiaries. Bank holding companies are required by the Act to obtain approval
from the Board prior to acquiring, directly or indirectly, ownership or control
of more than 5% of the voting shares of a bank. The Act also prohibits bank
holding companies, with certain exceptions, from acquiring more than 5% of the
voting shares of any company that is not a bank and from engaging in any
nonbanking business (other than a business closely related to banking as
determined by the Board) or from managing or controlling banks and other
subsidiaries authorized by the Act or furnishing services to, or performing
services for, its subsidiaries without the prior approval of the Board. The
Board is empowered to differentiate between activities that are initiated de
novo by a bank holding company or a subsidiary and activities commenced by
acquisition of a going concern. The Company has no present intention to engage
in nonbanking activities. As a bank holding company, the Company is subject to
capital adequacy guidelines as established by the Board. The Board established
risk based capital guidelines for bank holding companies effective March 15,
1989. Beginning on December 31, 1992, the minimum required ratio for total
capital to risk weighted assets became 8 percent (of which at least 4 percent
must consist of Tier 1 capital). Tier 1 capital (as defined in regulations of
the Board) consists of common and qualifying preferred stock and minority
interests in equity accounts of consolidated subsidiaries, less goodwill and
other intangible assets required to be deducted under the Board's guidelines.
The Board's guidelines apply on a consolidated basis to bank holding companies
with total consolidated assets of $150 million or more. For bank holding
companies with less than $150 million in total consolidated assets (such as the
Company), the guidelines will be applied on a bank only basis, unless the bank
holding company is engaged in nonbanking activity involving significant leverage
or has significant amount of debt outstanding that is held by the general
public. The Board has stated that risk based capital guidelines establish
minimum standards and that bank holding companies generally are expected to
operate well above the minimum standards. The
<PAGE>

Company is also a bank holding company within the meaning of the Georgia Act,
which provides that, without the prior approval of the DBF, it is unlawful (i)
for any bank holding company to acquire direct or indirect ownership or control
of more than 5% of the voting shares of any bank, (ii) for any bank holding
company or subsidiary thereof, other than a bank, to acquire all or
substantially all of the assets of a bank, or (iii) for any bank holding company
to merge or consolidate with any other bank holding company. It also is unlawful
for any company to acquire direct or indirect ownership or control of more than
5% of the voting shares of any bank in Georgia unless such bank has been in
existence and continuously operating or incorporated as a bank for a period of
five years or more prior to the date of application to the DBF for approval of
such acquisition. Bank holding companies themselves are prohibited from
acquiring another bank until the initial bank in the bank holding company has
been incorporated for a period of twenty-four months. The Riegle-Neal Interstate
Banking and Branching Efficiency Act of 1994 (the "Interstate Banking Act"),
subject to certain restrictions, allows adequately capitalized and managed bank
holding companies to acquire existing banks across state lines, regardless of
state statutes that would prohibit acquisitions by out-of-state institutions.
Further, effective June 1, 1997, a bank holding company may consolidate
interstate bank subsidiaries into branches and a bank may merge with an
unaffiliated bank across state lines to the extent that the applicable states
have not "opted out" of interstate branching prior to such effective date. Some
states may elect to permit interstate mergers prior to June 1, 1997. The
Interstate Banking Act generally prohibits an interstate acquisition (other than
the initial entry into a state by a bank holding company) that would result in
either the control of more than (i) 10% of the total amount of insured deposits
in the United States, or (ii) 30% of the total insured deposits in the home
state of the target bank, unless such 30% limitation is waived by the home state
on a basis which does not discriminate against out-of-state institutions. As a
result of this legislation, the Company may become a candidate for acquisition
by, or may itself seek to acquire, banking organizations located in other
states. The Riegle Community Development and Regulatory Improvement Act of 1994
(the "Improvement Act") provides for the creation of a community development
financial institutions' fund to promote economic revitalization in community
development. Banks and thrift institutions are allowed to participate in such
community development banks. The Improvement Act also contains (i) provisions
designed to enhance small business capital formation and to enhance disclosure
with regard to high cost mortgages for the protection of consumers, and (ii)
more than 50 regulatory relief provisions that apply to banks and thrift
institutions, including the coordination of examinations by various federal
agencies, coordination of frequency and types of reports financial institutions
are required to file and reduction of examinations for well capitalized
institutions.

Bank holding companies may be compelled by bank regulatory authorities to invest
additional capital in the event a subsidiary bank experiences either significant
loan losses or rapid growth of loans or deposits. In addition, the Company may
be required to provide additional capital to any additional banks it acquires as
a condition to obtaining the approvals and consents of regulatory authorities in
connection with such acquisitions.

The Company and the Bank are subject to the Federal Reserve Act, Section 23A,
which limits a bank's "covered transactions" (generally, any extension of
credit) with any single affiliate to no more than 10% of a bank's capital and
surplus. Covered transactions with all affiliates combined are limited to no
more than 20% of a bank's capital and surplus. All covered and exempt
transactions between a bank and its affiliates must be on terms and conditions
consistent with safe and sound banking practices, and a bank and its
subsidiaries are prohibited from purchasing low quality assets from the bank's
affiliates. Finally, Section 23A requires that all of a bank's extensions of
credit to an affiliate be appropriately secured by collateral. The
<PAGE>

Company and the Bank are also subject to Section 23B of the Federal Reserve Act,
which further limits transactions among affiliates. Sections 22(g) and 22(h) of
the Federal Reserve Act and implementing regulations also prohibit extensions of
credit by a state non-member bank (such as the Bank) to its directors, officers
and controlling shareholders on terms which are more favorable than those
afforded other borrowers, and impose limits on the amounts of loans to
individual affiliates and all affiliates as a group.

The United States Congress and the Georgia General Assembly periodically
consider and adopt legislation that results in, and could further result in,
deregulation, among other matters, of banks and other financial institutions.
Such legislation could modify or eliminate geographic restrictions on banks and
bank holding companies and current prohibitions with other financial
institutions, including mutual funds, securities brokerage firms, insurance
companies, banks from other states and investment banking firms. The effect of
any such legislation on the business of the Company or the Bank cannot be
accurately predicted. The Company cannot predict what legislation might be
enacted or what other implementing regulations might be adopted, and if enacted
or adopted, the effect thereof.

MONETARY POLICY

The earnings of the Bank are affected by domestic and foreign economic
conditions, particularly by the monetary and fiscal policies of the United
States Government and its agencies.

The Federal Reserve has had, and will continue to have, an important impact on
the operating results of commercial banks through its power to implement
national monetary policy in order, among other things, to mitigate recessionary
and inflationary pressures by regulating the national money supply.

The techniques used by the Federal Reserve include setting the reserve
requirements of member banks and establishing the discount rate on member bank's
borrowings. The Federal Reserve also conducts open market transactions in United
States Government securities.

Periodically, bills are pending before the United States Congress which contain
wide-ranging proposals for altering the structures, regulations and competitive
relationships of the nation's financial institutions. Among such bills are
proposals to prohibit banks and bank holding companies from conducting certain
types of activities, to subject banks to increased disclosure and reporting
requirements, to eliminate on a regional or other basis the present restriction
on interstate expansion by banks or bank holding companies, to alter the
statutory separation of commercial and investment banking and to alter the
powers of thrift institutions and other competitors of banks. It cannot be
predicted whether or in what form any of these proposals will be adopted or the
extent to which the business of the Company may be affected thereby.

COMPETITION

The banking business is highly competitive. The Bank competes with other
commercial banks in its primary service area.

Banks generally compete with other financial institutions through the banking
products and services offered, the pricing of services, the level of service
provided, the convenience and availability of services, and the degree of
expertise and the personal manner in which services are offered. The Bank
encounters strong competition from most of the financial institutions in
<PAGE>

the Bank's primary service area. In the conduct of certain areas of its banking
business, the Bank also competes with credit unions, consumer finance companies,
insurance companies, money market mutual funds and other financial institutions,
some of which are not subject to the same degree of regulation and restrictions
imposed upon the Bank. Many of these competitors have substantially greater
resources and lending limits than the Bank has and offer certain services, such
as trust services, that the Bank does not provide presently. Management believes
that competitive pricing and personalized service will provide it with a method
to compete effectively in the primary service area.

EMPLOYEES

As of December 31, 1999, the Bank employed 16 full-time employees and three
part-time employees. Except for the officers of the Bank who presently serve as
officers of the Company, the Company does not have any employees. Neither the
Company nor the Bank is a party to any collective bargaining agreement, and
management believes the Bank enjoys satisfactory relations with its employees.

ITEM 2.        DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTIES.

The operations of the Company and the Bank are conducted in a main office
building located at 119 Maple Street, Carrollton, Georgia. The office consists
of an approximately 25,000 square foot four-story building, of which two floors
are being lease out unaffiliated third parties. The Bank also has a branch of
located at 6670 Church Street in Douglasville, Georgia. That building is
one-story brick building with approximately 5,000 square feet of space.

ITEM 3.        LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

Neither the Company nor the Bank is a party to any pending legal proceedings,
other than routine litigation incidental to the Bank's business, which
management believes would have a material effect upon the operations or
financial condition of the Company or the Bank.

ITEM 4.        SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS.

No matter was submitted to a vote of security holders during the Company's
fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended December 31, 1999.


                                     PART II

ITEM 5.       MARKET FOR ISSUER'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS.

There is no established trading market for the Company's common stock, which was
first issued on January 28, 1997 at a price of $10.00 per share. As of March 15,
2000, the Company had 369 shareholders of record.

Under the Georgia Business Corporation Code, the Company may from time to time
make distributions, including the payment of dividends, to its shareholders in
money, indebtedness or other property (except its own shares) unless, after
giving effect to such distribution, the Company would not be able to pay its
debts as they become due in the usual course of business or the Company's total
assets would be less than the sum of its total liabilities, plus the amount that
would be needed, if the Company were to be dissolved at the time of the
<PAGE>

distribution, to satisfy any preferential rights of shareholders upon
dissolution. The Company may also distribute its shares pro rata and without
consideration to its shareholders or to the shareholders of one or more classes
or series, which constitutes a share dividend.

However, the only current source of funds with which the Company can pay
dividends is from amounts received as dividends from the Bank. The Board of
Directors of the Bank is limited in its ability to pay cash dividends on the
outstanding capital stock of the Bank without regulatory approval. The Georgia
Financial Institutions Code provides that dividends may be declared and paid
only from a bank's cumulative retained earnings which have not been appropriated
as permanent capital. Approval from the Department is required prior to the
payment of dividends by a bank under certain circumstances. Generally, a bank
may declare and pay dividends without the prior approval of the Department so
long as (i) a bank's ratio of equity capital to adjusted total assets equals or
exceeds 6%, (ii) the aggregate amount of dividends declared or anticipated to be
declared by a bank in the calendar year does not exceed 50% of such bank's net
profits after taxes but before dividends for the prior calendar year, and (iii)
the total classified assets at the most recently completed and delivered
examination of the bank do not exceed 80% of the equity capital reflected at
such examination.

The Company does not anticipate paying dividends on its common stock in the
immediate future.

No assurance can be given that dividends will be declared by the Company, or if
declared, what the amount of the dividends will be or whether such dividends,
once declared, would continue.

ITEM 6. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
        of Operations

The following is a discussion of the financial condition of Peoples Bancorp.,
Inc. (PBI) and its bank subsidiary, Peoples Bank of West Georgia at December 31,
1999 and 1998 and the results of operations for the years then ended. The
purpose of this discussion is to focus on information about PBI's financial
condition and results of operations which are not otherwise apparent from the
audited consolidated financial statements. Reference should be made to those
statements and the selected financial data presented elsewhere in this report
for an understanding of the following discussion and analysis.

Forward-Looking Statements

PBI may from time to time make written or oral forward-looking statements,
including statements contained in PBI's filings with the Securities and Exchange
Commission and its reports to stockholders. Statements made in the Annual
Report, other than those concerning historical information, should be considered
forward-looking and subject to various risks and uncertainties. Such
forward-looking statements are made based upon management's belief as well as
assumptions made by, and information currently available to, management pursuant
to "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
1995. PBI's actual results may differ materially from the results anticipated in
forward-looking statements due to a variety of factors, including governmental
monetary and fiscal policies, deposit levels, loan demand, loan collateral
values, securities portfolio values, interest rate risk management; the effects
of competition in the banking business from other commercial banks, thrifts,
mortgage banking firms, consumer finance companies, credit unions, securities
brokerage firms, insurance companies, money market funds and other financial
institutions operating in PBI's market area and elsewhere, including
institutions operating through the Internet, changes in governmental regulation
relating to the banking industry, including regulations relating to branching
and acquisitions, failure of assumptions underlying the establishment of
reserves for loan losses, including the value of collateral underlying
delinquent loans and other factors. PBI cautions that such factors are not
exclusive. PBI does not undertake to update any forward-looking statement that
may be made from time to time by, or on behalf of, PBI.

Overview

PBI's 1999 results were highlighted by becoming cumulatively profitable in its
second full year of operations with a net income of $255,000. PBI also moved
into its 24,000 square foot facility located in downtown Carrollton in November
1999. PBI has expanded its geographic market by adding a loan production office
in Villa Rica in late 1999 and a full-service branch in Douglasville in January
of 2000. The physical improvements and market expansion should provide steady
growth for PBI in the future.

Financial Condition at December 31, 1999 and 1998

As of December 31, 1999, PBI had total assets of $49.6 million, an increase of
44% since December 31, 1998. Total interest-earning assets were $44.1 million at
December 31, 1999 or 88.82% of total assets as compared to 89.86% at December
31, 1998. PBI's primary interest-earning assets at December 31, 1999 were loans,
which made up 68.42% of total interest-earning assets as compared to 58.22% at
December 31, 1998. PBI's loan to deposit ratio was 77.78% as compared to 68.44%
at December 31, 1998. Deposit growth of $12.3 million and advances from the
Federal Home Loan Bank of $2.5 have been used primarily to fund loan growth of
$12.1 million and fixed asset purchases of $1.8 million.

PBI's investment portfolio, consisting of U.S. Agency, mortgage-backed, and
equity securities, amounted to $11.7 million at December 31, 1999. Unrealized
losses on securities amounted to $207,000 at December 31, 1999. Management has
not specifically identified any securities for sale in future periods which, if
so designated, would require a charge to operations if the market value would
not be reasonably expected to recover prior to the time of sale.

PBI has 67% of its loan portfolio collateralized by real estate located in PBI's
primary market area of Carroll County and surrounding counties. PBI's real
estate mortgage and construction portfolio consists of loans collateralized by
one- to four-family residential properties (51%), construction loans to build
one- to four-family residential properties (18%), and nonresidential
<PAGE>

properties consisting primarily of small business commercial properties (31%).
PBI generally requires that loans collateralized by real estate not exceed 80%
of the collateral value.

PBI's remaining 33% of its loan portfolio consists of commercial, consumer, and
other loans. PBI requires collateral commensurate with the repayment ability and
creditworthiness of the borrower.

The specific economic and credit risks associated with PBI's loan portfolio,
especially the real estate portfolio, include, but are not limited to, a general
downturn in the economy which could affect unemployment rates in PBI's market
area, general real estate market deterioration, interest rate fluctuations,
deteriorated or non-existing collateral, title defects, inaccurate appraisals,
financial deterioration of borrowers, fraud, and any violation of banking
protection laws. Construction lending can also present other specific risks to
the lender such as whether developers can find builders to buy lots for home
construction, whether the builders can obtain financing for the construction,
whether the builders can sell the home to a buyer, and whether the buyer can
obtain permanent financing. Currently, real estate values and employment trends
in PBI's market area are stable with no indications of a significant downturn in
the general economy.

PBI attempts to reduce these economic and credit risks not only by adherence to
loan to value guidelines, but also by investigating the creditworthiness of the
borrower and monitoring the borrower's financial position. Also, PBI establishes
and periodically reviews its lending policies and procedures as well as having
independent loan review. State banking regulations limit exposure by prohibiting
secured loan relationships that exceed 25% of the Bank's statutory capital and
unsecured loan relationships that exceed 15% of the Bank's statutory capital.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The purpose of liquidity management is to ensure that there are sufficient cash
flows to satisfy demands for credit, deposit withdrawals, and other needs of
PBI. Traditional sources of liquidity include asset maturities and growth in
core deposits. A company may achieve its desired liquidity objectives from the
management of assets and liabilities and through funds provided by operations.
Funds invested in short-term marketable instruments and the continuous maturing
of other earning assets are sources of liquidity from the asset perspective. The
liability base provides sources of liquidity through deposit growth, the
maturity structure of liabilities, and accessibility to market sources of funds.

Scheduled loan payments are a relatively stable source of funds, but loan
payoffs and deposit flows fluctuate significantly, being influenced by interest
rates and general economic conditions and competition. PBI attempts to price its
deposits to meet its asset/liability objectives consistent with local market
conditions.

The liquidity and capital resources of the Bank are monitored on a periodic
basis by State and Federal regulatory authorities. As determined under
guidelines established by those regulatory authorities and internal policy, the
Bank's liquidity was considered satisfactory.
<PAGE>

At December 31, 1999, PBI had loan commitments outstanding of $5.3 million.
Because these commitments generally have fixed expiration dates and many will
expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily
represent future cash requirements. If needed, the Bank has the ability on a
short-term basis to borrow and purchase Federal funds from other financial
institutions. At December 31, 1999, the Bank has arrangements with two
commercial banks for short-term advances of $3,500,000.

At December 31, 1999, PBI's and the Bank's capital ratios were considered
adequate based on regulatory minimum capital requirements. PBI's stockholders'
equity increased due to net income in 1999 of $255,000 and decreased due to
unrealized losses on securities available-for-sale, net of tax, of $189,000. For
regulatory purposes, the net unrealized losses on securities available-for-sale
are excluded in the computation of the capital ratios.

In the future, the primary source of funds available to PBI will be the payment
of dividends by its subsidiary Bank. Banking regulations limit the amount of the
dividends that may be paid without prior approval of the Bank's regulatory
agency. As of December 31, 1999, $117,000 was available for dividend payment to
the holding company without regulatory approval.

The minimum capital requirements to be considered well capitalized under prompt
corrective action provisions and the actual capital ratios for PBI and the Bank
as of December 31, 1999 are as follows:

                                                         Actual
                                          -------------------------------------
                                                                    Regulatory
                                          PBI          Bank        Requirements
                                          ---          ----        ------------

Leverage capital ratio                    17.40%       13.37%         5.00%
Risk-based capital ratios:
   Core capital                           25.23        19.50          6.00
   Total capital                          26.41        20.69         10.00

These ratios may decline as asset growth continues, but, as earnings improve to
support the growth, should remain in excess of the regulatory minimum
requirements.

Management believes that its liquidity and capital resources are adequate and
will meet its foreseeable short and long-term needs. Management anticipates that
it will have sufficient funds available to meet current loan commitments and to
fund or refinance, on a timely basis, its other material commitments and
liabilities.

Management is not aware of any known trends, events or uncertainties that will
have or that are reasonably likely to have a material effect on its liquidity,
capital resources or operations. Management is also not aware of any current
recommendations by the regulatory authorities which, if they were implemented,
would have such an effect.
<PAGE>

Effects of Inflation
--------------------

The impact of inflation on banks differs from its impact on non-financial
institutions. Banks, as financial intermediaries, have assets which are
primarily monetary in nature and which tend to fluctuate in concert with
inflation. A bank can reduce the impact of inflation if it can manage its rate
sensitivity gap. This gap represents the difference between rate sensitive
assets and rate sensitive liabilities. PBI, through its asset-liability
committee, attempts to structure the assets and liabilities and manage the rate
sensitivity gap, thereby seeking to minimize the potential effects of inflation.
For information on the management of PBI's interest rate sensitive assets and
liabilities, see the "Asset/Liability Management" section.

Net Interest Income
-------------------

PBI's results of operations are determined by its ability to effectively manage
interest income and expense, to minimize loan and investment losses, to generate
non-interest income, and to control operating expenses. Since interest rates are
determined by market forces and economic conditions beyond the control of PBI,
PBI's ability to generate net interest income is dependent upon its ability to
obtain an adequate net interest spread between the rate paid on interest-bearing
liabilities and the rate earned on interest-earning assets.
<PAGE>

The net yield on average interest-earning assets was 4.16% in 1999 as compared
to 4.35% in 1998. Average loans increased by $9.5 million which accounted for
the majority of a $10.5 million increase in total average interest-earning
assets. Average interest-bearing liabilities increased by $12.3 million with
average interest-bearing demand and time deposits accounting for the vast
majority of this increase. The rate earned on average interest-earning assets
increased to 8.15% in 1999 from 7.89% in 1998. The rate paid on average
interest-bearing liabilities was 4.80% in 1999 and 5.09% in 1998.

The net yield on average interest-earning assets was 4.35% in 1998 as compared
to 5.38% in 1997. Average loans increased by $8.9 million which accounted for
the majority of a $14.8 million increase in total average interest-earning
assets. Average interest-bearing liabilities increased by $13.1 million with
average interest-bearing demand and time deposits accounting for the vast
majority of this increase. The rate earned on average interest-earning assets
increased to 7.89% in 1998 from 7.61% in 1997. The rate paid on average
interest-bearing liabilities was 5.09% in 1998 and 4.66% in 1997.

Provision for Loan Losses
-------------------------

The provision for loan losses was $200,000 in 1999 as compared to $121,000 in
1998. The amounts provided were due primarily to the growth of the portfolio.
Based upon management's evaluation of the loan portfolio, management believes
the reserve for loan losses to be adequate to absorb possible losses on existing
loans that may become uncollectible. This evaluation considers past due and
classified loans, underlying collateral values, and current economic conditions
which may affect the borrower's ability to repay. As of December 31, 1999, PBI
had nonaccrual loans totaling $11,000. There were no impaired or nonaccrual
loans as of December 31, 1998. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of
total loans at December 31, 1999 and 1998 was 1.25% and 1.19%, respectively.

Other Income
------------

Other income consists of service charges on deposit accounts and other
miscellaneous revenues and fees. Other income was $212,000 in 1999 as compared
to $210,000 in 1998. The Bank had a decrease in mortgage origination fees of
$15,000 while service charges on deposit accounts increased $25,000.

Other income was $210,000 in 1998 as compared to $97,000 in 1997. The increases
are due to PBI being open for an entire year versus ten months in 1997, and an
increase in mortgage loan origination fees of $63,000.

Other Expenses
--------------

Other expenses were $1,267,000 in 1999 as compared to $1,087,000 in 1998, an
increase of $180,000. Salaries and employee benefits increased by $136,000 due
to an increase in the number of full time employees from 10 to 19 and normal
salary increases. Equipment and occupancy expenses increased by $2,000. The
increase was due to overall increased equipment and occupancy expenses of
$100,000 being offset by rental income from the rental of its banking facilities
in the amount of $98,000. Approximately $33,000 is expected from
<PAGE>

rents in 2000. Other operating expenses increased by $43,000 which is primarily
due to first-time directors fees paid of $36,000, increased data processing
costs of $17,000, and other miscellaneous increases associated with PBI's
expanding operations, and decreased organization costs of $70,000.

Other expense for 1998 consists of salaries and employee benefits ($585,000),
equipment and occupancy expenses ($69,000), and other operating expenses
($363,000). The increases over 1997 ($84,000 for salaries and employee benefits,
and $24,000 for other operating expenses) are due primarily to PBI being open
for an entire year versus only ten months in 1997. The decrease in equipment and
occupancy expenses of $15,000 is due primarily to the purchase of PBI's current
banking facilities in late 1997. The facilities had been rented in 1997 at a
cost of $24,000. PBI also adopted SOP 98-5 which required the write-off of
$70,000 of organization costs.

Income Tax
----------

During 1999, PBI recognized an income tax expense of $50,000. Due to previous
net operating losses, there was no tax expense for 1998 or 1997. The effective
tax rate of 16%, as compared to the statutory Federal rate of 34%, is due to the
recognition of $55,000 of deferred tax assets previously accorded a valuation
allowance.

Asset/Liability Management
--------------------------

It is PBI's objective to manage assets and liabilities to provide a
satisfactory, consistent level of profitability within the framework of
established cash, loan, investment, borrowing, and capital policies. Certain
officers are charged with the responsibility for monitoring policies and
procedures that are designed to ensure acceptable composition of the
asset/liability mix. It is the overall philosophy of management to support asset
growth primarily through growth of core deposits of all categories made by local
individuals, partnerships, and corporations.

PBI's asset/liability mix is monitored on a regular basis with a report
reflecting the interest rate-sensitive assets and interest rate-sensitive
liabilities being prepared and presented to the Board of Directors of the Bank
on a monthly basis. The objective of this policy is to monitor interest
rate-sensitive assets and liabilities so as to minimize the impact of
substantial movements in interest rates on earnings. An asset or liability is
considered to be interest rate-sensitive if it will reprice or mature within the
time period analyzed, usually one year or less. The interest rate-sensitivity
gap is the difference between the interest-earning assets and interest-bearing
liabilities scheduled to mature or reprice within such time period. A gap is
considered positive when the amount of interest rate-sensitive assets exceeds
the amount of interest rate-sensitive liabilities. A gap is considered negative
when the amount of interest rate-sensitive liabilities exceeds the interest
rate-sensitive assets. During a period of rising interest rates, a negative gap
would tend to adversely affect net interest income, while a positive gap would
tend to result in an increase in net interest income. Conversely, during a
period of falling interest rates, a negative gap would tend to result in an
increase in net interest income, while a positive gap would tend to adversely
affect net interest income. If PBI's assets and liabilities were equally
flexible and moved concurrently, the impact of any increase or decrease in
interest rates on net interest income would be minimal.
<PAGE>

A simple interest rate "gap" analysis by itself may not be an accurate indicator
of how net interest income will be affected by changes in interest rates.
Accordingly, PBI also evaluates how the repayment of particular assets and
liabilities is impacted by changes in interest rates. Income associated with
interest-earning assets and costs associated with interest-bearing liabilities
may not be affected uniformly by changes in interest rates. In addition, the
magnitude and duration of changes in interest rates may have a significant
impact on net interest income. For example, although certain assets and
liabilities may have similar maturities or periods of repricing, they may react
in different degrees to changes in market interest rates. Interest rates on
certain types of assets and liabilities fluctuate in advance of changes in
general market rates, while interest rates on other types may lag behind changes
in general market rates. In addition, certain assets, such as adjustable rate
mortgage loans, have features (generally referred to as "interest rate caps and
floors") which limit changes in interest rates. Prepayment and early withdrawal
levels also could deviate significantly from those assumed in calculating the
interest rate gap. The ability of many borrowers to service their debts also may
decrease during periods of rising interest rates.

Changes in interest rates also affect PBI's liquidity position. PBI currently
prices deposits in response to market rates and it is management's intention to
continue this policy. If deposits are not priced in response to market rates, a
loss of deposits could occur which would negatively affect PBI's liquidity
position.

At December 31, 1999, PBI's cumulative one year interest rate-sensitivity gap
ratio was 59%. PBI's targeted ratio is 80% to 120% in this time horizon. This
indicates that PBI's interest-bearing liabilities will reprice during this
period at a rate faster than PBI's interest-earning assets. For internal
reporting purposes, PBI does not consider interest-bearing demand and savings
accounts to be interest rate sensitive. Adjusting for these deposits, PBI's
cumulative one year interest rate-sensitivity gap ratio would be 92%. PBI
believes that competitive market rates are being paid for certificates of
deposit, and as long as the rates remain competitive, liquidity, while not
assured, should not be materially adversely affected.

The following table sets forth the distribution of the repricing of PBI's
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities as of December 31,
1999, the interest rate- sensitivity gap, the cumulative interest
rate-sensitivity gap, the interest rate-sensitivity gap ratio and the cumulative
interest rate-sensitivity gap ratio. The table also sets forth the time periods
in which earning assets and liabilities will mature or may reprice in accordance
with their contractual terms. However, the table does not necessarily indicate
the impact of general interest rate movements on the net interest margin since
the repricing of various categories of assets and liabilities is subject to
competitive pressures and the needs of PBI's customers. In addition, various
assets and liabilities indicated as repricing within the same period may in
fact, reprice at different times within such period and at different rates.

Year 2000 Disclosures

Based on a review of PBI's business since January 1, 2000, PBI has not

been informed of any material risks associated with the Year 2000 problem from
third parties, there can be no assurance that PBI will not be impacted in the
future. PBI will continuously monitor its business applications and maintain
contact with its third party vendors and key business partners to resolve any
Year 2000 problems that may arise in the future. The costs incurred by PBI to
address Year 2000 issues were approximately $35,000.

Rate and Volume Analysis

The following table describes the extent to which changes in interest rates and
changes in volume of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities
have affected PBI's interest income and expense during the year indicated. For
each category of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities,
information is provided on changes attributable to (1) change in volume (change
in volume multiplied by old rate); (2) change in rate (change in rate multiplied
by old volume); and (3) a combination of change in rate and change in volume.
The changes in interest income and interest expense attributable to both volume
and rate have been allocated proportionately on a consistent basis to the change
due to volume and the change due to rate.

December 31, 1999 and 1998 is as follows:

Nonaccrual loans                                                $11       $ 0
Loans contractually past due ninety
     days or more as to interest or
     principal payments and still accruing                        4         0
Restructured loans                                                0         0
Loans, now current about which there are
     serious doubts as to the ability of the
     borrower to comply with loan repayment terms                 0         0
Interest income that would have been recorded
     on nonaccrual and restructured loans under
     original terms                                               1         0
Interest income that was recorded on
     nonaccrual and restructured loans                            0         0

It is the policy of the Bank to discontinue the accrual of interest income when,
in the opinion of management, collection of such interest becomes doubtful. This
status is accorded such 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.
These classified loans do not represent material credits about which management
is aware of any information which causes management to have serious doubts as to
the ability of such borrowers to comply with the loan repayment terms.

Allowance for Loan Losses

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
periodic review of loan loss experience, current economic conditions which may
affect the borrower's ability to pay and the underlying collateral value of the
loans.
<PAGE>

As of December 31, 1999 and 1998, management had made no allocations of its
allowance for loan losses to specific categories of loans. Based on management's
best estimate, the allocation of the allowance for loan losses to types of
loans, as of the indicated dates, is as follows:

paid at the annual rate of $100,000 until the Company accepted subscriptions for
the minimum 625,000 shares. Mr. Warren may receive a performance bonus ranging
from 0% to 50% of annual base salary and will be awarded based upon the Bank's
performance and upon the Bank's composite rating received in its most recent
report of examination by its primary Federal regulatory authority.

In addition, the Company has implemented an Employee Incentive Stock Option Plan
for employees of the Bank and reserved a total of 75,000 shares out of the
Company's total authorized shares for the plan. Options with respect to 31,500

Mr. Warren's employment agreement provides for a severance pay for Mr. Warren in

the acquisition of 25 percent or more of the voting securities of the Bank by
any person, or persons acting as a group within the meaning of
<PAGE>

Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or the acquisition of
between 10 percent and 25% if the Board of Directors of the Bank or the
Comptroller of the Currency, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or the
Federal Reserve Bank has made a determination that such acquisition constitutes
or will constitute control of the Bank.

The employment agreement provides that if the employee is terminated after 365
days as a result of change of control, the employee shall be entitled to receive
his salary through the last day of the calendar month of the termination, or
payment in lieu of the notice period. In addition, Mr. Warren would receive an
amount equal to three times his then existing annual base salary. The employment
agreement further provides that the payment shall also be made in connection
with, or within 120 days after, a change of control of the Bank if such change
of control was opposed by Mr. Warren on the Bank's Board of Directors. This
payment would be in addition to any amount otherwise owed to the employee
pursuant to the employment agreement.

considered due and payable to Mr. Warren under the employment agreement: (i)
non-forfeitable deferred compensation shall be paid in full: (ii) long-term
performance plan objective payments as described in Section II, 2, f, shall be
declared accomplished and earned based upon performance up to date of the change
of control; and (iii) in the event that the employee is a participant in a
restricted stock plan, or share option plan, and such plan is terminated
involuntarily as a result of the change of control, all stock and options shall
be declared 100% vested and distributed.
