                  Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

In management's opinion, the financial information, which is unaudited, reflects
all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) necessary
for a fair presentation of the financial information as of and for the three
month periods ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles. The financial statements include the accounts of
American Community Bancshares, Inc. (the "Company") and its wholly owned
subsidiary, American Community Bank. Operating results for the three-month
period ended March 31, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results that
may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2001.

The organization and business of the Company, accounting policies followed by
the Company and other information are contained in the notes to the consolidated
financial statements filed as part of the Company's 2000 annual report on Form
10-KSB. This quarterly report should be read in conjunction with such annual
report.


NOTE B - COMMITMENTS

At March 31, 2001, loan commitments are as follows

         Undisbursed lines of credit                   $     22,388,000
         Stand-by letters of credit                           1,031,000


NOTE C - PER SHARE RESULTS

Net income (loss) per share has been computed by dividing net income (loss) for
each period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding
during such period. Outstanding stock options had no dilutive effect.

On February 28, 2001 American Community Bancshares Inc. completed a secondary
offering of its common stock. The Company sold 150,178 shares of stock at $9.50

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

Comparison of Financial Condition at March 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000

Total assets increased by $12.5 million during the three months ended March 31,
2001, from $141.8 million to $154.3 million, driven largely by an increase of
$16.8 million in deposits net of the decrease in advances from the Federal Home
Loan Bank of $5.0 million. These funds were deployed principally to fund the
loan growth of $8.5 million from $109.4 million at December 31, 2000 to $117.9
million at March 31, 2001. In addition liquid assets increased to $31.5 million
at March 31, 2001 from $28.0 million at December 31, 2000.

Comparison of Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2001
and 2000

Net Income. The Bank generated a net profit of $56,000 or $.04 per share for the
three months ended March 31, 2000, representing an improvement over the net loss
of $218,000 or $.15 per share generated during the three months ending March 31,
2000. The improvement has resulted principally from the Bank's growth, as both
net interest income and non-interest income have increased substantially during
the current period.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income for the three months ended March 31,
2001 was $1.1 million as compared with $866,000 for the three months ended March
31, 2000, with the increase resulting principally from the higher level of
interest-earning assets during the current period. Interest-earning assets
averaged $138.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2001 as compared
with $75.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2000. This increase
resulted from growth in average loans of $48.4 million combined with growth in
interest earning deposits and investments of $15.2 million.

Provision for Loan Losses. The provision for loan losses was $113,000 and
$189,000, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000. The
allowance for loan losses at March 31, 2001 represented 1.26% of loans
outstanding with $15,000 of non-accrual loans outstanding at that date. There
were no restructured loans at the end of the period.

Non-Interest Income. Non-interest income increased from $139,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 2000 to $384,000 for the three months ended March 31,
2001, an increase of $245,000. Income from mortgage operations totaled $37,000
for the three months ended 2000, increasing to $86,000 for the same period of
the current year principally as a result of lower interest rates and higher
demand for mortgage loans. In addition, service charges on deposit accounts grew
from $88,000 to $202,000 and other non-interest income grew from $14,000 to
$96,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2000 and 2001, respectively.

Non-Interest Expense. Total non-interest expense was $1.3 million and $1.0
million, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000. This
increase of $312,000 is primarily attributable to a $236,000 increase in
compensation expense associated with the opening of two additional branches
after March 31, 2000.

Asset Quality

No material changes have occurred in the Company's asset quality since December
31, 2000.
