Scotland Savings Bank, Inc. (the "Bank" or "Scotland Savings Bank") in
connection with the Bank's conversion from a state chartered mutual savings bank
to a state chartered stock savings bank, pursuant to its amended and restated
Plan of Conversion. The Company was organized in 1995 to acquire all of the
common stock of Scotland Savings Bank upon its conversion to stock form, which
occurred on March 29, 1996. A subscription offering of the Company's shares
closed on March 29, 1996, at which time the Company acquired all of the shares
of the Bank and commenced operations.

The Company has no operations and conducts no business of its own other than
owning Scotland Savings Bank, investing its portion of the net proceeds received
in the Conversion, and lending funds to the Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the
"ESOP") which was formed in connection with the Conversion. The principal
business of the Bank is accepting deposits from the general public and using
those deposits and other sources of funds to make loans secured by real estate
and other forms of collateral located in the Bank's primary market area of
Scotland and Moore counties in North Carolina.

Scotland Savings Bank's results of operations depend primarily on its net
interest income, which is the difference between interest income from
interest-earning assets and interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities.
The Bank's operations are also affected by noninterest income, such as
miscellaneous income from loans, customer deposit account service charges, and
other sources of revenue. The Bank's principal operating expenses, aside from
interest expense, consist of compensation and associated benefits, federal
deposit insurance premiums, occupancy costs, furniture and fixture expense, data
processing charges, and other general and administrative expenses.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Comparison of Financial Condition at December 31, 1997 and September 30, 1997:

Total assets decreased by $2.9 million to $61.5 million at December 31, 1997
from $64.4 million at September 30, 1997. Net loans receivable decreased by $2.0
million to $44.5 million at December 31, 1997 from $46.5 million at September
30, 1997. Cash and cash equivalents, including federal funds sold, increased by
$326,000 to $7.1 million at December 31, 1997 from $6.8 million at September 30,
1997. Investment securities decreased by $1.4 million to $8.6 million at
December 31, 1997 from $10.0 million at September 30, 1997. During the quarter
ended December 31, 1997, investment securities totaling $5.1 million were sold
in order to pay off the Company's note payable described below, $3.6 million of
securities were purchased, and the fair value of the securities available for
sale portfolio increased by $174,000. Deposits increased by $2.5 million to
$45.6 million at December 31, 1997 from $43.1 million at September 30, 1997. The
Company repaid the $5.5 million note payable which was incurred in September of
1997, thus eliminating the Company's external debt as of December 31, 1997.
Retained earnings increased by $70,000 during the current quarter to $9.5
million at December 31, 1997, which is attributable to the Company's earnings of
$158,000 for the three months ended December 31, 1997, less cash dividends
declared of $88,000.

At December 31, 1997, the Company's capital amounted to $14.8 million, which as
a percentage of total consolidated assets was 24.1%, and was considerably in
excess of the regulatory capital requirements at such date.

The Bank considers all loans past due 90 days or more to be nonperforming, even
though a loan may have sufficient collateral and/or the Bank ultimately expects
to receive all delinquent payments. The Bank had no loans which were
nonperforming at December 31, 1997. The Bank's nonperforming loans as a
percentage of total loans outstanding was .00% and .06% at December 31, 1997 and
September 30, 1997, respectively. During the three month period ended December
31, 1997, the Bank's level of nonperforming loans has remained consistently low
in relation to prior periods and total loans outstanding, and the Bank only
incurred $550 in loan charge-offs during the quarter ended December 31, 1997. As
a result, and based on management's analysis of the adequacy of its allowances,
only $6,000 during the three month period ended December 31, 1997 was provided
to the loan loss allowance. Such amounts were added as a general valuation
allowance primarily due to the increase in the Bank's loan portfolio during the
period.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended December 31, 1997 and
1996:

General. Net income for the three months ended December 31, 1997 was $158,000
compared to $302,000 earned during the same quarter in 1996. As discussed below,
the decrease in net income was primarily attributable to a decrease in net
interest income for the three month period ended December 31, 1997, as compared
to the same period in 1996, due to a lower level of investment securities and
moderate deposit growth. In October 1997, the Company liquidated certain
investment securities and utilized the cash to repay a $5.5 million note payable
incurred in September 1997 due to a $6.00 per share return of capital dividend.

Interest income. Interest income decreased by $113,000 from $1.3 million for the
three months ended December 31, 1996 to $1.2 million for the three months ended
December 31, 1997. The decrease was attributable to a lower level of
interest-earning assets, primarily loans receivable and investment securities,
which were outstanding during the first quarter of this year in comparison to
the same quarter a year earlier. Interest-earning assets amounted to $59.2
million at December 31, 1997 as compared to $66.7 million at December 31, 1996.
The Company utilized investment securities as the funding source to pay a $11.5
million return of capital dividend. Approximately 96% of the Company's assets
were interest-earning at December 31, 1997, and approximately 72% of such
interest-earning assets were held in the form of loans receivable.

Interest Expense. Interest expense increased by $63,000 from $490,000 for the
three months ended December 31, 1996 to $553,000 for the three months ended
December 31, 1997. The increase was attributable to a higher level of
interest-bearing liabilities outstanding during the first quarter of this year
in comparison to the same quarter a year earlier, while the cost of funds
remained fairly stable.

Net interest income. Net interest income decreased by $176,000 from $795,000 for
the three months ended December 31, 1996 to $619,000 for the three months ended
December 31, 1997. This decrease resulted from the combination of an decrease in
the volume of interest-earning assets and a increase in the volume of
interest-bearing liabilities between the quarters.

Provision for loan losses. The Bank added $6,000 in loan loss provisions during
the quarters ended December 31, 1997 and 1996. 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 evaluation to increase
or decrease the provision and resulting allowances is based both on 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.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS

- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Bank's loan loss provisions were relatively minor during the three month
periods ended December 31, 1997 and 1996 because the Bank's level of
nonperforming loans has remained consistently low (or the Bank had no
nonperforming loans) in relation to prior periods and total loans outstanding.
At December 31, 1997, the Bank's level of general valuation allowances for loan
losses amounted to $255,000, which management believes is adequate to absorb
potential losses in its loan portfolio.

Noninterest expense. Noninterest expense increased by $49,000 to $382,000 for
the three month period ended December 31, 1997 from $333,000 for the comparable
quarter in 1996, principally as a result of an increase in compensation expense
resulting from the establishment of the Bank's Management Recognition Plan as
discussed below. Other categories of noninterest expense fluctuated by
insignificant amounts between the periods, except for insurance expense which
decreased by $17,000 during the current quarter as compared to the same quarter
a year earlier. This was due to the Bank receiving a lower rate in 1997 after
the Savings Association Insurance Fund was recapitalized in 1996.

On April 17, 1997, the Company's stockholders approved the Bank's Management
Recognition Plan ("MRP") which reserved for issuance 73,600 shares of common
stock to all officers, directors, and employees at the time of adoption. The
restricted common stock under the MRP vests at the rate of 20% annually
beginning at the date of grant. The expense associated with the MRP amounted to
$58,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 1997 and is included in compensation
expense on the consolidated statement of income.

Capital Resources and Liquidity:

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.

One form of liquidity, which is made up of cash and cash equivalents and federal
funds sold, increased by $326,000 million during the three month period ended
December 31, 1997. As reported in the consolidated statement of cash flows, such
increase occurred as a result of deposit growth and sales of investment
securities.

As a state chartered stock savings bank, Scotland Savings Bank must maintain
liquidity in the form of cash and cash equivalents and investment securities,
including mortgage-backed securities, equal to at least 10% of total assets. The
Bank's liquidity ratio at December 31, 1997 was considerable in excess of such
requirements. Given its excess liquidity and its ability to borrow from the
Federal Home Loan Bank, the Bank believes that it will have sufficient funds
available to meet anticipated future loan commitments, unexpected deposit
withdrawals, and other cash requirements.

Year 2000:

At the turn of the century, computer-based information systems will be faced
with the problems potentially affecting hardware, software, networks, processing
platforms, as well as customer and vendor interdependencies. The Company has
established a committee and is in the process of assessing the effect of Year
2000 on the Bank's operating plans and systems. The Company is developing a plan
for identifying, renovating, testing and implementing its systems for Year 2000
processing and internal control requirements. The cost for becoming Year 2000
compliant has not been determined, however, management feels it will not be
material to the Company's financial statements.
