COMPARISON OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AT MARCH 31, 2000 AND JUNE 30,
1999

The Company's assets increased by $5.9 million or 6.3% to
$101.3 million at March 31, 2000 from $95.3 million at June 30,
1999. The increase in the Company's assets during the nine
months ended March 31, 1999 was primarily due to the Company
utilizing cash, deposit growth and borrowed money to fund loan
growth. The Company's net loans receivable increased by $10.2
million or 13.0% to $87.9 million at March 31, 2000 from $77.8
million at June 30, 1999. The increase in net loans receivable
was comprised of $4.7 million in balloon mortgages, $3.5 million
in commercial equipment leases, $2.6 million in commercial real
estate loans $1.3 million in commercial term loans  and $600,000
in consumer loans somewhat offset by decreases of $1.9 million
in other residential mortgages and $600,000 in construction
loans. The Company's mortgage-backed securities portfolio
decreased by $400,000 million to $4.5 million at March 31, 2000
from $4.9 million at June 30, 1999 due to amortization and
prepayments.

The Company's borrowings increased by $1,000,000 or 7.1%
to $14.9 million at March 31, 2000 from $13.9 million at June
30, 1999. Deposits increased by $5.5 million or by 7.9% to $75.2
million at March 31, 2000 from $69.7 million at June 30, 1999.
The increase in deposits was largely attributable to the
increase of $4.8 million in interest-bearing deposits consisting
primarily of certificate of deposit accounts. In February 2000,
the Bank acquired $1.0 million in retail brokered deposits in
denominations less than $100,000.  Noninterest-bearing deposits
increased by $708,000 or 24.6% during the nine months ended
March 31, 2000.

                             8

<PAGE>
<PAGE>
The Company's stockholders' equity increased by $72,000 to
$9.3 million at March 31, 2000 from $9.2 million at June 30,
1999.  In July 1999, the Company initiated a 5% (17,221 shares)
stock repurchase program.  This was completed in November 1999
at a total cost of $457,788.

COMPARISON OF OPERATING RESULTS FOR THE QUARTERS AND NINE MONTHS
ENDED MARCH 31, 2000 AND MARCH 31, 1999

Net Income
- ----------

The Company's net income increased by $1,000 or 0.3% to $205,000
for the quarter ended March 31, 2000 from $204,000 for the
quarter ended March 31, 1999. The Company's net income increased
by $21,000 or 3.9% to $576,000 for the nine months ended March
31, 2000 from $555,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 1999.
The increase in the Company's net income during the comparable
three-month period is a result of higher net interest income
before the provision for loan loss and higher noninterest income
slightly offsetting higher operating expenses.  The increase in
the Company's net income in the comparable nine-month period was
primarily due to increases in net interest and noninterest
income offsetting higher compensation, equipment and data
processing expenses.

Interest Income
- ---------------

Total interest income increased by $221,000 or 12.4% to $2.0
million for the quarter ended March 31, 2000 from $1.8 million
for the quarter ended March 31, 1999. Total interest income
increased by $415,000 or 7.7% to $5.8 million for the nine
months ended March 31, 2000 from $5.4 million for the nine
months ended March 31, 1999. The increases in interest income
resulted primarily from the growth in the Company's loan
portfolio that was funded with deposit growth, additional
borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta as well as
cash from lower yielding investments in overnight federal funds.
The Company's average yield on assets increased by 9 basis
points to 8.27% from 8.18% during the three-month period ended
March 31, 2000. For the comparative nine-month period, the
Company's average yield on assets increased 7 basis points to
8.26%. The Company's average balance of interest-earning assets
increased by $8.9 million and $5.6 million during the comparable
three and nine-month periods ended March 31, 1999.

Interest income on loans receivable increased by $166,000 or
9.9% to $1.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2000 from
$1.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1999. Interest
income on loans receivable increased by $338,000 or 6.8% to $5.3
million for the nine months ended March 31, 2000 from $5.0
million for the nine months ended March 31, 1999. The increase
in interest income on loans receivable during the three-month
period is primarily due to an increase in the average balance of
loans receivable. During the three months ended March 31, 2000
as compared to the same period ended March 31, 1999 the average
loans receivable balance increased by $7.0 million or 8.8% to
$86.7 million from $79.7 million and the average yield increased
by 1 basis point to 8.46% from 8.45%. During the nine months
ended March 31, 2000 as compared to the same period ended March
31, 1999 the average balance of loans receivable increased by
$4.4 million or 5.6% to $83.1 million from $78.7 million and the
average yield increased by 6 basis points to 8.52% from 8.46%.

Interest income on investment and mortgage-backed securities
increased by $52,000 and $62,000 for the three and nine-month
periods ended March 31, 2000 as compared to the three and none
month periods ended March 31, 1999.

<PAGE>
Interest income on federal funds sold and other investments
increased by $2,000 or 3.3% to $69,000 for the quarter ended
March 31, 2000 from $67,000 for the quarter ended March 31,
1999. Interest income on federal funds sold and other
investments increased by $16,000 or 8.1% to $209,000 for the
nine months ended March 31, 2000 from $193,000 for the nine
months ended March 31, 1999.

deposits decreased by $31,000 or 1.6% to $2.0 million from $2.0
million for the nine months ended March 31, 1999. The increase

interest-bearing deposits $2.8 million or 4.2%.The average rate
decreased by 2 basis points to 3.93% from 3.95%. The decrease in
interest expense on deposits during the comparable nine-month
period was primarily due to a 14 basis point decrease in the
average rate to 3.95% from 4.09% offsetting a $1.0 million
increase in the average balance.

Interest expense on borrowings increased by $100,000 or 74.6%

million in the average balance offsetting a decrease of 17 basis
points in the average rate. For the nine-month comparable
periods the increase was attributable to a $5.3 million increase
in the average balance.  The average rate decreased 32 basis

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

The Company's net interest income before the provision for
loan losses increased by $79,000 or 8.0% to $1.1million for the

March 31, 1999. Net interest income before the provision for
loan losses increased by $234,000 or 8.1% to $3.1 million for
the nine months ended March 31, 2000 from $2.9 million during
the nine months ended March 31, 1999. The increase in net
interest income during the comparable quarter is primarily due
to higher volumes.  The increase in net interest income in the
comparable nine month period is due to both higher volumes and a
higher net interest margin.

Average Balance Sheet
- ---------------------

The following tables sets forth certain information relating to
the Company's average balance sheet and reflects the average
yield on assets and cost of liabilities for the periods
indicated and the average yields earned and rates paid. Dividing
income or expense by the average balance of assets or
liabilities, respectively, for the periods presented derives
these yield and costs. Average balances are daily balances.

The table presents information for the periods indicated
with respect to the net interest margin, which is its net
interest income divided by the average balance of
interest-earning assets.   Also presented is the difference
between the average yield earned on interest-earning assets and
average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities, or interest
rate spread ,which is also used to measure the earnings power of
financial institutions.

Provision For Loan Losses
- -------------------------

Provisions for loan losses are charged to earnings to maintain
the total allowance for loan losses at a level considered
adequate by management to provide for probable loan losses,
based on prior loss experience, volume and type of collateral by
the Company, industry standards and past due loans in the
Company's loan portfolio. The Company's management periodically
monitors and adjusts its allowance for loan losses based upon
its analysis of the loan portfolio. The Company provided
$115,000 for loan losses during the quarter ended March 31, 2000
and $60,000 in the quarter ended March 31, 1999. The Company
provided $255,000 and $170,000 for loan losses during each of
the nine-month periods ended March 31, 2000 and March 31, 1999.
The provision for loan losses were made due to the Company's
higher levels of consumer, construction and commercial loans,
which generally entail a greater risk than single-family
residential loans.  Additionally, fiscal year-to-date
charge-offs of $176,000 are 135% higher than March 1999 fiscal
year-to-date charge-offs of  $75,000.  The Company's allowance
for loan losses as a percentage of total loans outstanding, net
of unearned origination fees of 0.82% at March 31, 2000 is up
slightly from March 31, 1999 when the ratio was 0.81%. The
Company's ratio of net charge-offs to average loans outstanding
was 0.24% and 0.39% for the quarter and nine-month periods ended
March 31, 2000 on an annualized basis.

Noninterest Income
- ------------------

The Company's noninterest income consists of deposit fees,
service charges, late fees and gains and losses on sales of
securities, loans and repossessed real estate and other assets.
Total noninterest income increased by $54,000 or 81.4% to
$121,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2000 from $67,000 for
the quarter ended March 31, 1999. Total noninterest income
increased by $73,000 or 40.1% to $254,000 during the nine months
ended March 31, 2000 from $181,000 during the nine months ended
March 31, 1999.  The majority of the increase in noninterest
income in the three and nine month periods was due to the
recognition of a $50,000 gain on the sale of foreclosed real
estate.  The remainder of the increase in noninterest income in
the two comparable periods is primarily due to higher fees on
deposit accounts.

Noninterest Expenses
- --------------------

Total noninterest expenses increased by $75,000 or 11.2%
to $739,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2000 from $664,000
for the quarter ended March 31, 1999. Total noninterest expense
increased by $169,000 to $2.2 million during the nine months
ended March 31, 2000 from $2.0 million during the nine months
ended March 31, 1999. Compensation and employee benefits expense
increased by $35,000 or 7.9% and $80,000 or 6.1% to $476,000 and
$1.4 million for the quarter and nine month periods ended March
31, 2000 from $441,000 and $1.3 million for the quarter and nine
months ended March 31, 1999, respectively. The increase was
largely attributable to expenses relating to the hiring of
additional personnel and the higher cost of employee benefits,
particularly health insurance. Equipment expenses, consisting
primarily of depreciation and maintenance of the Company's
internal computer systems increased by $9,000 or 32.4% and
$41,000 or 50.1% in the three and nine-month periods ended March
31, 2000 compared to the comparable periods ended March 31,
1999.  Data processing expenses increased $12,000 or 51.0% and
$33,000 or 38.2% in the three and nine-month periods ended March
31, 2000 compared to the comparable periods ended March 31,
1999.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------

An important component of the Company's asset/liability
structure is the level of liquidity available to meet the needs
of customers and creditors. The Company's Asset/Liability
Management Committee has established general guidelines for the
maintenance of prudent levels of liquidity. The Committee
continually monitors the amount and source of available
liquidity, the time to acquire it and its cost. Management of
the Company seeks to maintain an

                                     13

<PAGE>

adequate level of liquidity in order to retain flexibility in
terms of investment opportunities and deposit pricing. Because
liquid assets generally provide lower rates of return, a high
level of liquidity will, to a certain extent, result in lower
net interest margins and lower net income.

The Company's most liquid assets are cash on hand,
interest-bearing deposits and Federal funds sold, which are
short-term.  The levels of these assets are dependent on the
Company's operating, financing and investing activities during
any given period. At March 31, 2000, the Company's cash on hand,
interest-bearing deposits and Federal funds sold totaled $4.9
million. In addition, the Company has approximately $5.0 million
of mortgage-backed and equity securities classified as
available-for-sale.

The Company anticipates that it will have sufficient funds
available to meet its current loan commitments of $4.9 million.
These funds will be internally generated, raised through deposit
operations, or borrowed.   Certificates of deposits that are
scheduled to mature in less than one year at March 31, 2000
totaled $38.3 million. Historically, a high percentage of
maturing deposits have remained with the Company.

The Company's primary sources of funds are deposits and
proceeds from maturing investment securities and mortgage-backed
securities and principal and interest payments on loans. While
maturities and scheduled amortization of mortgage-backed
securities and loans are predictable sources of funds, deposit
flows and mortgage prepayments are greatly influenced by general
interest rates, economic conditions, competition and other
factors.

The Company's primary uses of cash in investing activities
during the nine months ended March 31, 2000 were loan principal
disbursements, net of repayments, of $10.6 million. The
Company's primary sources of cash provided from financing
activities during the nine months ended March 31, 2000 was a
$5.5 million increase in deposits and the  increase of  $1.0
million in outstanding borrowings from the Federal Home Loan
Bank of Atlanta.

The Company's primary use of cash in financing activities
during the nine months ended March 31, 2000 consisted of the
repurchase of stock and payment of cash dividends of $600,000.

As discussed in Note 5 - Regulatory Capital Requirements,
the Company and the Bank exceeded all regulatory minimum capital
requirements.
