(5) Net Income Per Share



Basic net income per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of
common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net income per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance
of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the Company.



The following is a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted net income per share computations for the periods indicated:

7) Stock Options



The Company has two incentive stock option plans. The 1997 Incentive Stock Plan (the
1997 Plan), pursuant to which the Companys Board of Directors may grant stock options to officers and key employees, was effective as of May 1, 1997. The 1997 Plan authorizes grants of options to purchase up to 50,000 shares of the
Companys authorized, but unissued common stock. Accordingly, 50,000 shares of authorized, but unissued common stock are reserved for use in the 1997 Plan. All stock options are granted with an exercise price equal to the stocks fair
market value at the date of grant. At June 30, 2004, there were 5,000 shares available for grant under the 1997 Plan.



The 2004 Incentive Stock Plan (the 2004 Plan), pursuant to which the Companys Board of Directors may grant stock options to officers and key employees,
was approved by shareholders on April 13, 2004 and effective as of May 1, 2004. The 2004 Plan authorizes grants of options to purchase up to 100,000 shares of the Companys authorized, but unissued common stock. Accordingly, 100,000 shares of
authorized, but unissued common stock are reserved for use in the 2004 Plan. All stock options are granted with an exercise price equal to the stocks fair market value at the date of grant.



The Company applies the intrinsic value-based method of accounting prescribed by Accounting
Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations including FASB Interpretation No. 44, Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation, an Interpretation of APB
Opinion No. 25, to account for its fixed plan stock options. Under this method, compensation expense is recorded on the date of grant only if the current market price of the underlying stock exceeded the exercise

price. SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, established accounting and disclosure requirements
using a fair value-based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation plans. As allowed by SFAS No. 123, the Company has elected to continue to apply the intrinsic value-based method of accounting described above, and has adopted the
disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123, as amended by SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation  Transition and Disclosure, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 123.



No compensation cost has been recognized for the Companys stock options
in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Had the Company determined compensation cost based on the fair value of its stock options at the grant date under SFAS No. 123, the Companys net income, basic net income per share and
diluted net income per share would have decreased to the pro forma amounts for the interim periods indicated below:

34.88%. These increases in net income were primarily attributable to $120 of one-time other operating expenses incurred in the second quarter of 2003 that did not occur in 2004 and a decrease in the provision for loan losses of $94 for the first six
months of 2004 and $51 for the second quarter of 2004 compared with the second quarter of 2003. The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2004 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending
December 31, 2004.



Profitability as measured by the
Companys return on average assets (ROA) was 0.89% for the six months ended June 30, 2004, compared to 0.87% for the same period of 2003. Another key indicator of performance, the return on average equity (ROE) for the six months ended June 30,
2004 was 8.65%, compared to 8.40% for the six months ended June 30, 2003.

NET INTEREST INCOME



Net interest income represents the principal source of earnings for the Company. Changes in the volume and mix of
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and borrowings, as well as their respective rates and yields, have a significant impact on the level of net interest income.



Net interest income was $3,616 for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and is attributable to interest income from loans and
securities exceeding the cost associated with interest incurred on deposits. Net interest income was $1,808 for the three months ended June 30, 2004. The net interest margin decreased to 3.81% for the six months ended June 30, 2004, from 3.89% for
the six months ended June 30, 2003. The decrease was caused by lower yields on loans slightly exceeding the cost paid for deposits.



Interest income on loans and securities decreased 5.45% and 5.38% for the six and three months ended June 30, 2004, respectively, compared to the same
periods of 2003 due to the loans repricing and being originated at lower interest rates and higher yielding securities maturing and being replaced by lower yielding ones in 2004 as a result of the overall lower interest rate environment.



Interest and fees from loans was $4,332 for the six months ended June 30,
2004, down from $4,448 at June 30, 2003. Interest and fees from loans was $2,165 for the three months ended June 30, 2004, down from $2,246 at June 30, 2003. Interest from securities and fed funds sold was $962 for the six months ended June 30,
2004, down from $1,151 at June 30, 2003. Interest from securities was $472 for the six months ended June 30, 2004, down from $541 at June 30,2003.



Interest expense decreased 17.62% and 16.52% for the six and three months ended June 30, 2004, respectively, compared to the same periods of 2003 due to
the impact of repricing of deposit liabilities at lower interest rates.



NON-INTEREST INCOME



Non-interest income decreased $104 or 8.39% for the six months ended June 30, 2004 compared to the same period of 2003. Non-interest income decreased $55 or 8.87% when comparing the three months ended June 30, 2004 to the same period of
2003. The Companys principal sources of non-interest income are service charges and fees on deposit accounts, particularly transaction accounts, and fees on sales of mortgage loans. The decreases from 2003 were primarily due to a 35.52%
decrease in fees on sales of mortgage loans as a result of a decrease in loan production during the first half of 2004. Also contributing to the decrease was a 7.66% decrease in service charges on deposits as

overdraft privilege fees, although continuing to perform well, have not remained at the high 2003 levels when the
overdraft privilege program was first introduced.



NON-INTEREST EXPENSE



Non-interest expense decreased $55 or 1.65%, for the six
months ended June 30, 2004 compared to the same period of 2003. Non-interest expense decreased $184 or 10.19% for the three months ended June 30, 2004 compared to the same period of 2003. The decrease in non-interest expense when comparing these
periods is primarily attributable to the conservative $58 increase or 3.16% growth in the Companys personnel expenses and a $85 or 8.86% decrease in other operating expenses as a result of a one-time consulting expense of $82 related to
improving efficiencies within the Company and one-time expenses and loss associated with the sale of land totaling approximately $38 incurred in the first half of 2003.



ALLOWANCE AND PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES



The provision for loan losses expense was $163 in the first six months of 2004 in recognition of managements estimate of risks inherent with lending
activities. Among other factors, management considers the Companys historical loss experience, the size and composition of the loan portfolio, the value and adequacy of collateral and guarantors, non-performing credits, and current and
anticipated economic conditions in making its estimate of risk. There are additional risks of future loan losses that cannot be precisely quantified or attributed to particular loans or classes of loans. Since those risks include general economic
trends as well as conditions affecting individual borrowers, the allowance for loan losses is an estimate. The allowance is also subject to regulatory examinations and determinations as to adequacy, which may take into account such factors as the
methodology used to calculate the allowance. The allowance for loan losses was $1,609 as of June 30, 2004, representing approximately 1.04% of loans receivable. Management believes the allowance was adequate as of June 30, 2004 to provide for loan
losses inherent in the Companys loan portfolio. Management evaluates the reasonableness of the allowance for loan losses on a quarterly basis and adjusts the provision as deemed appropriate.



NON-PERFORMING ASSETS AND IMPAIRED LOANS



Non-performing assets, which consist of nonaccrual loans and foreclosed
properties, were $511 at June 30, 2004 and $260 at December 31, 2003. There were no foreclosed properties as of June 30, 2004 or December 31, 2003. Nonaccrual loans were $511 at June 30, 2004 and $260 at December 31, 2003. Loans are generally placed
in nonaccrual status when the collection of principal and interest is 90 days or more

past due, unless the obligation is both well-secured and in the process of collection. Impaired loans equaled nonaccrual
loans at June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003.



LIQUIDITY



Liquidity represents an institutions ability to meet present and
future financial obligations through either the sale or maturity of existing assets or the acquisition of additional funds from alternative funding sources. The Companys liquidity is provided by cash and due from banks, federal funds sold,
investments available for sale, managing investment maturities, interest-earning deposits in other financial institutions and loan repayments. The Companys ability to obtain deposits and purchase funds at favorable rates also affects it
liquidity. As a result of the Companys management of liquid assets and its ability to generate liquidity through alternative funding sources, management believes that the Bank maintains overall liquidity that is sufficient to satisfy its
depositors requirements and to meet customers credit needs. The Companys ratio of liquid assets to deposits and short-term borrowings was 22.33% as of June 30, 2004 compared to 22.33% as of December 31, 2003. Additional sources of
liquidity available to the Company include its capacity to borrow additional funds through correspondent banks. The Company derives cash flows from its operating, investing, and financing activities. Cash flows of the Company are primarily used to
fund loans and securities and are provided by the deposits and borrowings of the Company.



CAPITAL



The Companys
financial position at June 30, 2004 reflects liquidity and capital levels currently adequate to fund anticipated future business expansion. Capital ratios are well above required regulatory minimums for a well-capitalized institution. The assessment
of capital adequacy depends on a number of factors such as asset quality, liquidity, earnings performance, and changing competitive conditions and economic forces. The adequacy of the Companys capital is reviewed by management regularly.
Management seeks to maintain a capital structure that will assure an adequate level of capital to support anticipated asset growth and to absorb potential losses.



Stockholders equity reached $21,599 at June 30, 2004 compared to $21,435 at December 31, 2003. At June 30, 2004, the
Companys leverage ratio (Tier I capital divided by quarterly average assets) was 9.83% compared to 9.79% at December 31, 2003. Each of these ratios exceeded the required minimum leverage ratio of 4%.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS



There were no material changes in the Companys off-balance sheet arrangements and commitments from the information provided in the Companys
Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2003. The Company, in the normal course of business, may at times be a party to financial instruments such as standby letters of credit. Standby letters of credit as of June 30, 2004
equaled $165. Other commitments include commitments to extend credit. Not all of these commitments will be acted upon; therefore, the cash requirements will likely be significantly less than the commitments themselves. As of June 30, 2004, the
Company had unused loan commitments of $37,109, including $31,754 in unused commitments with an original maturity exceeding one year.



CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES



Certain critical accounting policies affect the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements.
The Companys most critical accounting policy relates to the Companys allowance for loan losses, which reflects the estimated losses resulting from the inability of the Companys borrowers to make required loan payments. If the
financial condition of the Companys borrowers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, the Companys estimates would be updated, and additional provisions for loan losses could be required.
Further information regarding the estimates used in determining the allowance for loan losses is contained in the discussions on Allowance and Provision for Loan Losses on page 17 herein and Loans and Allowance for Loan
Losses on page 28 of the Companys 2003 Annual Report to Shareholders.



RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS



As of August 11,
2004, there are no new accounting standards that are expected to be applicable to the Companys financial position, operating results or financial statement disclosures.

Item 3. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES



Pursuant to provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, Robert H. Gilliam, Jr., President and Chief Executive Officer, and Bryan M. Lemley, Secretary, Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer, of the Company are responsible for
establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures for the Company. They have designed disclosure controls and procedures, or caused such disclosure controls and procedures to be designed under their supervision, to ensure that material
information relating to the Company, is made known to them by others within the Company, particularly during the periods when the Companys quarterly and annual reports are being prepared. They have evaluated the effectiveness of the
Companys disclosure controls and procedures, and based on their evaluation, concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures were operating effectively as of the end of the period covered by this report.



Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of
controls can provide absolute assurance that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures will detect or uncover every situation involving the failure of persons within the Company to disclose material information otherwise required to be
set forth in the Companys periodic reports.



The
Companys management is also responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal controls over financial reporting and control of the Companys assets to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial
reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. There was no change in the Companys internal control over financial reporting or control of assets during
the most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control over financial reporting or control over its assets.
