                   South Street Financial Corp. and Subsidiary
                   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 consolidated financial statements include
the accounts of South Street Financial Corp. (the "Company") and its
wholly-owned subsidiary, Home Savings Bank of Albemarle, S.S.B., ("Home Savings"
or the "Bank"), the Bank's wholly-owned subsidiary, South Street Development
Corporation ("SSDC"), and SSDC's wholly-owned subsidiary, Park Ridge Associates,
LLC ("Park Ridge"). During 2000, SSDC became the sole owner of Park Ridge by
purchasing the 50% interest in Park Ridge that was previously held by a third
party. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been
eliminated in consolidation. 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-K. This quarterly report should be read in conjunction with such annual
report.

NOTE B.  EARNINGS PER SHARE

The Company's basic earnings per share for the three month period ended March
31, 2001 is based on net income earned divided by the weighted average number of
shares outstanding from the beginning of the period to the end of the period.
Diluted earnings per share is adjusted for all potential common stock
instruments having a dilutive effect. For purposes of this computation, the
number of shares of common stock purchased by the ESOP which have not been
allocated to participant accounts are not assumed to be outstanding.

NOTE C. DIVIDENDS DECLARED

On March 19, 2001, the Company's Board of Directors declared a dividend of $.10
per share for shareholders of record as of April 2, 2001 and payable on April
12, 2001. In addition, on March 19, 2001, the Board of Directors of the Bank
declared an upstream dividend of $314,000 to the Company.

NOTE D. BORROWINGS

Borrowings, which consisted solely of advances from the FHLB, totaled
$16,000,000 at March 31, 2001. The weighted average interest rate of the
advances was 6.56%. All of the advances mature during 2001.

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

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB may contain certain forward-looking
statements consisting of estimates with respect to the financial condition,
results of operations and business of the Company that are subject to various
factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from these
estimates. These factors include, but are not limited to, general economic
conditions, changes in interest rates, deposit flows, loan demand, real estate
values, and conditions; changes in accounting principles, policies, or
guidelines; changes in legislation or regulation; and other economic,
competitive, governmental, regulatory, and technological factors affecting the
Company's operations, pricing, products and services.

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

Total consolidated assets increased by $3.8 million or 1.9% to $202.1 million at
March 31, 2001 from $198.3 million at December 31, 2000. Net loans receivable
increased by $1.8 million or 1.2% to $154.3 million at March 31, 2001 from
$152.5 million at December 31, 2000. Investment securities held to maturity
decreased $217,000 or 3.2% to $6.5 million at March 31, 2001 from $6.8 million
at December 31, 2000. Additionally, investment securities classified as
available for sale decreased $5.2 million or 20.7% to $20.0 million at March 31,
2001 from $25.3 million at December 31, 2000. The Bank has guaranteed the
repayment of the ESOP's note payable to the Company, which it incurred on
October 2, 1996 in order to purchase 359,720 shares of stock in the Company. The
Company's note receivable from the ESOP totals $2.9 million at March 31, 2001
and is reported as a reduction of stockholders' equity. Retained earnings
decreased by $89,000 to $19.5 million at March 31, 2001, which is attributable
to the Company's dividends accrued for the three months ended March 31, 2001 in
the amount of $281,000 and net of $192,000 of net income. Common stock and
unearned compensation decreased by $324,000 to $7.1 million at March 31, 2001
from $7.4 million at December 31, 2000. The decrease was primarily attributable
to the repurchase of 45,000 shares of outstanding common stock in the amount of
$290,000.

As a North Carolina chartered stock savings bank, the Bank is required to meet
various capital standards established by federal and state banking agencies. At
March 31, 2001, the Company's stockholders' equity amounted to $23.6 million, or
11.7% of total assets and exceeds all regulatory capital requirements.

The Bank's level of nonperforming loans, defined as loans past due 90 days or
more, was $196,000 and $439,000 at March 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000,
respectively. During the three month period ended March 31, 2000, the Bank's
level of nonperforming loans remained consistently low in relation to prior
periods and to total loans outstanding. Based on their analysis, management
determined that no loan loss provisions were necessary during the three months
ended March 31, 2001 and 2000.

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

General. Net income for the three month period ended March 31, 2001 was
$192,000, or $66,000 more than the $126,000 earned during the same period in
2000.

Interest income. Interest income increased by $341,000 from $3.3 million for the
three months ended March 31, 2000 to $3.6 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2001. The increase was primarily attributable to the increased volume
in loans receivable and interest-bearing deposits net of a decrease in the
volume of investment securities during the quarter.

Interest expense. Interest expense on deposits and borrowed funds increased by
$481,000 from $1.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2000 to $2.3
million for the three months ended March 31, 2001. The increase is primarily due
to an increase in the total amount of customer deposits for the three months
ended March 31, 2001 compared to the same period in 2000.

Net interest income. Net interest income decreased by $140,000 from $1.5 million
for the three months ended March 31, 2000 to $1.3 million for the three months
ended March 31, 2001. This decrease resulted from the factors discussed above.

Provision for loan losses. There were no provisions for loan losses charged to
income during the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000. Provisions, which
are charged to operations, and the resulting loan loss allowances are amounts
the Bank's management believes will be adequate to absorb losses on existing
loans that may become uncollectible.

Loans are charged off against the allowance when management believes that
collectibility is unlikely. The decision to increase or decrease the provision
and resulting allowances is based upon an evaluation of both prior loan loss
experience and other factors, such as changes in the nature and volume of the
loan portfolio, overall portfolio quality, and current economic conditions. The
Bank's level of nonperforming loans has remained consistently low in relation to
prior periods and total loans outstanding and the Bank's loan charge-offs during
the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000 were minimal.

At March 31, 2001, the Bank's level of general valuation allowances for loan
losses amounted to $414,000, which management believes is adequate to absorb
losses inherent in its loan portfolio.

Non-interest income. The Company earned non-interest income of $73,000 during
the three months ended March 31, 2001 compared to the net loss of $18,000 that
was incurred during the same period in 2000. This increase in non-interest
income of $91,000 was primarily attributable to a decrease in the net loss on
the sale of assets of $56,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001 versus
2000, and an increase in service charges and fees of $37,000 from $27,000 for
the three months ended March 31, 2000 to $64,000 for the three months ended
March 31, 2001.

Non-interest expense. Non-interest expense decreased by $130,000 from $1.2
million for the three months ended March 31, 2000 to $1.1 million for the three
months ended March 31, 2001. This decrease resulted primarily from a decrease in
compensation expense of $103,000 due largely to expense associated with the
management recognition plan in the quarter ended March 31, 2000. The management
recognition plan became fully vested prior to 2001, therefore there was no
related expense included in the quarter ended March 31, 2001.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

The term "liquidity" generally refers to an organization's ability to generate
adequate amounts of funds to meet its needs for cash. More specifically for
financial institutions, liquidity ensures that adequate funds are available to
meet deposit withdrawals, fund loan and capital expenditure commitments,
maintain reserve requirements, pay operating expenses, and provide funds for
debt service, dividends to stockholders, and other institutional commitments.
Funds are primarily provided through financial resources from operating
activities, expansion of the deposit base, borrowings, through the sale or
maturity of investments, the ability to raise equity capital, or maintenance of
shorter term interest-bearing deposits.

As a state chartered stock savings bank, the Bank must meet certain liquidity
requirements that are established by the NC Administrator of the Savings
Institutions Division. The Bank's liquidity ratio at March 31, 2001, as computed
under such regulations, was considerably in excess of such requirements. Given
its excess liquidity and its ability to borrow from the FHLB of Atlanta, the
Bank believes that it will have sufficient funds available to meet anticipated
future loan commitments, unexpected deposit withdrawals, or other cash
requirements.

The FDIC requires the Bank to have a minimum leverage ratio of Tier I Capital
(principally consisting of retained earnings and any common stockholders'
equity, less any intangible assets) to all assets of at least 3%, provided that
it receives the highest rating during the examination process. For institutions
that receive less than the highest rating, the Tier I capital requirement is 1%
to 2% above the stated minimum. The FDIC also requires the Bank to have a ratio
of total capital to risk-weighted assets of 8%, of which at least 4% must be in
the form of Tier I capital. The Administrator requires a net worth equal to at
least 5% of total assets. The Bank complied with all of the capital requirements
of both the FDIC and the Administrator at March 31, 2001.

Inflation and Changing Prices

The financial statements and accompanying footnotes have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, which require the
measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical
dollars without consideration for changes in the relative purchasing power of
money over time due to inflation. The assets and liabilities of the Company are
primarily monetary in nature and changes in market interest rates have a greater
impact on the Company's performance than do the effects of inflation.
