Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and, therefore, do
not include all of the disclosures and notes required by generally accepted
accounting principles. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have
been included. The results of operations for the three month and nine month
periods ended September 30, 1997 and 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the
results that may be expected for the entire year or any interim periods.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of United Community Bankshares, Inc. ("UCB" or "the Company") and its
wholly-owned subsidiaries, The Bank of Franklin ("BOF"), The Bank of Sussex and
Surry ("BSS"), and their wholly-owned subsidiaries, The Bank of Franklin Service
Corporation and BSS Service Corporation, respectively. All significant
intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
BOF and BSS commenced operations in 1971 and 1902, respectively. The Bank of
Franklin Service Corporation and BSS Service Corporation were organized in 1996
and 1994, respectively, to facilitate investment in financial related services.
The consolidation has been prepared using the pooling of interests method of
accounting. All information included in the unaudited financial statements has
been combined as if the merger (discussed in Note C below) occurred at the
earliest date presented.
NOTE B - EARNINGS PER SHARE
Earnings per common share, for the periods ended September 30, 1997 and 1996,
are calculated by dividing net income by the average number of common shares
outstanding of 1,829,209 shares.
NOTE C - BUSINESS COMBINATION
On August 1, 1996, BOF and BSS became affiliated pursuant to an Agreement and
Plan of Reorganization (the "Agreement") dated January 25, 1996. The transaction
contemplated by the Agreement created a holding company, United Community
Bankshares, Inc., which facilitated a share exchange transaction between UCB and
each of the respective banks. The Agreement was approved by the stockholders of
BOF and BSS at annual meetings held on September 27, 1996. After the share
exchange, BOF and BSS became wholly-owned subsidiaries of UCB, and each
shareholder of BOF and BSS became a shareholder of UCB. Under the terms of the
Agreement, BOF and BSS shareholders received 4.806 and 3.0 shares, respectively,
of UCB common stock for each share previously held. This resulted in the
issuance of 1,829,209 shares of UCB common stock. This combination was accounted
for as a pooling of interests. In connection with this transaction, one-time
expenses totaling $189,758 were recognized in 1996. On July 31, 1996, BOF and
BSS reported unaudited total assets of $84.5 million and $62.5 million,
respectively, and unaudited stockholders' equity of $8.2 million and $9.8
million, respectively.
The banks retained their respective names, banking offices, executive officers
and board of directors. BOF has five banking offices, two in the City of
Franklin, and one each in the Towns of Courtland and Newsoms and the City of
Suffolk. BSS has three banking offices in the Towns of Wakefield, Ivor and
Surry.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations
Financial Summary
UCB reported net income of $1.587 million for the nine month period ending
September 30, 1997, compared to $1.410 million for the same period in 1996,
which represents a $177,000 increase or 12.6%. This increase is primarily
attributable to an increase of $306,000 in net interest income which was
partially offset by a $99,000 increase in income taxes and a $33,000 increase in
provisions for loan losses. Earnings per share of common stock increased to
$0.87 for the nine month period ending September 30, 1997, compared to $0.77 for
the same period in 1996, which represents a 13.0% increase.
For the third quarter of 1997, net income was $549,000, compared to $406,000 for
the third quarter of 1996, a $143,000 increase or 35.2%. During the third
quarter of 1997, net interest income increased $73,000, noninterest income
increased $20,000, noninterest expenses decreased $124,000 and income taxes
increased $68,000, compared to the same period in 1996. During the third quarter
of 1996, the Company had $173,000 in one-time merger related expenses in
connection with the formation of the holding company. Earnings per share of
common stock increased to $0.30 for the third quarter of 1997, compared to $0.22
for the same period in 1996, a 36.4% increase.
UCB's total assets as of September 30, 1997 were $151.6 million, up by $1.7
million, or 1.1% from $149.9 million at year-end 1996. Net loans as of September
30, 1997 were $83.3 million, a increase of $6.3 million or 8.2% from $77.0
million at year end 1996. Investment securities decreased $3.2 million or 5.7%
to $53.2 million from $56.4 million as of September 30, 1997 and December 31,
1996, respectively. Cash and cash equivalents totaled $9.4 million at September
30, 1997 and $11.2 million at December 31, 1996, a decrease of $1.8 million or
16.1%.
The annualized return on average equity (ROE) increased to 10.92% for the nine
month period ended September 30, 1997, up from 10.52% for the same period in
1996. During the third quarter of 1997, ROE was 11.05%, compared to 8.96% during
the third quarter of 1996. Another measure of the Company's profitability, the
annualized return on average assets (ROA), increased to 1.43% from 1.31% for the
first nine months of 1997 and 1996, respectively. ROA increased to 1.48% for the
third quarter of 1997 compared to 1.12% for the same period in 1996.
UCB is not aware of any trends, future events or uncertainties that will have a
material adverse effect on the consolidated entity. Obviously, unforeseeable
changes in the local economies where UCB subsidiaries operate, which UCB is
unable to predict, may impact the overall communities and ultimately the
performance of the Company. UCB is not aware of any such changes.
Net Interest Income
Net interest income for the first nine months of 1997 was $4.481 million, up
from $4.175 million for the same period in 1996, increasing by $306,000 or 7.3%.
This increase is attributable to the transition of assets from
noninterest-earning cash, federal funds sold and investment securities to higher
yielding loans. For the third quarter of 1997, net interest income was $1.513
million, up $73,000 or 5.1% from $1.440 million during the third quarter of
1996.
For the nine months ended September 30, 1997, total interest and fees on loans
increased by $516,000 or 10.1%, from the nine month period ended September 30,
1996. Decreases in interest on investments of $167,000 or .7% and interest on
federal funds sold of $16,000 or 11.4% partially offset the increase in interest
and fees on loans. Interest expense on deposits increased only $3,000 or 0.1%
for the same period. Interest expense on federal funds purchased, repurchase
agreements and other short-term borrowings increased $24,000 or 92.3% from the
first nine months of 1996 to the same period in 1997.
Total interest and fees on loans increased by $159,000 or 8.8% and interest on
federal funds sold increased by $13,000 or 81.3%, from the third quarter of 1996
to the third quarter of 1997. During this same period, these increases in
interest income were partially offset by a $69,000 or 7.5% decrease in interest
on investments, a $19,000 or 1.6% increase in interest expense on deposits and a
$11,000 or 73.3% increase in interest expense on federal funds purchased,
repurchase agreements and other short-term borrowings.
Allowance for Loan Losses
The allowance for loan losses provides for potential losses inherent in the loan
portfolio. 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, nonperforming credits and current and
anticipated economic conditions. There are additional risks of future loan
losses which 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
determination as to adequacy, which may take into account such factors as the
methodology used to calculate the allowance, and the size of the allowance in
comparison to peer banks identified by regulatory agencies.
During the first nine months of 1997, the Company had $87,000 in provision
expense compared to $54,000 in the first nine months of 1996. Loans charged off,
which are charged directly to the allowance when they occur, during the first
nine months of 1997 amounted to $163,000 compared to $142,000 for the same
period in 1996. Recoveries during the first three quarters of 1997 and 1996
amounted to $70,000 and $84,000, respectively. The ratio of net charge-offs to
average outstanding loans was 0.12% in 1997 and 0.08% in 1996. Management feels
that the reserve is adequate to absorb any losses on existing loans which may
become uncollectible. The following table presents the Company's loan loss and
recovery experience for the first nine months of the past two years.

Noninterest Income
Total noninterest income increased by $20,000, or 9.3%, from $215,000 in the
third quarter of 1996 to $235,000 for the same period of 1997. The largest
component of this increase is a increase in service charges of $9,000 from the
third quarter of 1997 to the third quarter of 1996. Also during the quarter
ended September 30, 1997, miscellaneous noninterest income increased $8,000
compared to the same period in 1996.
During the nine month period ended September 30, 1997, total noninterest income
decreased by $10,000, or 1.6% to $633,000 from a level of $643,000 for the same
period of 1996. Gains on sales of investment securities decreased from $10,000
in 1996 to $6,000 in 1997. Service charges increased $6,000 or 1.2% to $518,000
for the first nine months of 1997 from $512,000 for the same period in 1996.
Other miscellaneous income decreased $12,000 or 9.9% to $109,000 for the first
nine months of 1997 from $121,000 for the same period in 1996, the largest
component of which was a $12,000 decrease in gains on the sale of OREO.
Noninterest Expense
Total noninterest expenses for the third quarter of 1997 were $911,000, a
decrease of $124,000 or 12.0% compared to $1.035 million for the same period
last year. This decrease is primarily due to the one-time merger related
expenses of $173,000 incurred during the third quarter of 1996. The following
factors partially offset the decrease in merger related expenses: 1) a $38,000
or 223.5% increase in professional fees arising from various initiatives by the
Company, to $55,000 in the third quarter of 1997 from $17,000 in the third
quarter of 1996; and 2) a $10,000 or 18.2% increase in equipment costs from
$55,000 in the third quarter of 1996 to $65,000 during the same period in 1997.
Total noninterest expenses for the nine month period ended September 30, 1997
decreased $13,000 or 0.5% to $2.799 million from $2.812 million for the same
period in 1996. This decrease is primarily due to the 1996 one-time merger
related expenses discussed above. The following factors partially offset the
decrease in merger related expenses: 1) an increase in salaries and employee
benefits of $50,000, or 3.2%, to $1.597 million in 1997 from $1.547 million in
1996, arising from general pay increases and increased staffing levels due to
the continued growth of the Company; 2) an increase in other miscellaneous
expenses of $27,000 or 4.6%, from $590,000 during the nine month period ended
September 30, 1996 to $617,000 for the same period during 1997; 3) a $37,000 or
54.4% increase in professional fees, to $105,000 in 1997 from $68,000 in 1996;
and 4) a $14,000 increase in occupancy costs from $194,000 in the first nine
months of 1996 to $208,000 during the same period in 1997.
Nonperforming Assets
Total nonperforming assets increased from $347,000 at year end 1996 to $427,000
at September 30, 1997. Loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing
interest declined $198,000 or 39.7% to $301,000 as of September 30, 1997 from
$499,000 at December 31, 1996. The following table summarizes nonperforming
assets and loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest as of
September 30, 1997 and year end 1996.

Liquidity and Short-Term Borrowings
Liquidity represents an institution's ability to meet present and future
financial obligations through either the sale of existing assets or the
acquisition of additional funds through short-term borrowings. Liquid assets
include cash, interest-bearing deposits with banks, federal funds sold and
investments and loans maturing within one year. As a result of the Company's
management of liquid assets, and the ability to generate liquidity through
liability fundings, management believes that the Company maintains overall
liquidity which is sufficient to satisfy its depositors' requirements and to
meet customers' credit needs. The Company has no long-term debt and no material
commitments for capital expenditures.
Cash and cash equivalents totaled $9.4 million at September 30, 1997 and $11.2
million at December 31, 1996. At September 30, 1997, cash and due from banks,
federal funds sold and securities classified as available for sale were $52.5
million, 38.0% of total earning assets, compared to $57.2 million, 41.7% of
total earning assets at December 31, 1996. Asset liquidity is also provided by
managing both loan and securities maturities.
Additional sources of liquidity available to the Company include its subsidiary
Banks' capacity to borrow additional funds through several established federal
funds arrangements and the Federal Home Loan Bank (the "FHLB"). As of September
30, 1997, UCB had no outstanding borrowings from the FHLB. UCB could borrow
approximately $6.5 million from the FHLB, if collateral acceptable to the FHLB
were provided. In addition, federal funds arrangements with other institutions
provide an additional $14.0 million of short-term borrowing capacity. At
September 30, 1997, the Company had outstanding balances of approximately $1.7
million on these federal funds lines of credit. Also, the Company offers
overnight repurchase agreements to a commercial customer, which amounted to
$172,000 at September 30, 1997.
Effects of Changing Prices and Seasonality
Because of the seasonality of the agricultural industry, the volume of loans and
deposits typically fluctuate during the year. Loans are typically heaviest from
April to November and deposits are typically their lowest during the same
period. At the end of the year and the beginning of the following year, loans
decrease as they are repaid and deposits increase as a result of the sale of the
fall harvest.
Capital Adequacy
Management reviews the adequacy of the Banks' capital on an ongoing basis with
reference to the size, composition, and quality of the Banks' resources and
compliance with regulatory requirements and industry standards. Management seeks
to maintain a capital structure that will assure an adequate level of capital to
support anticipated asset growth and absorb potential losses.
The Federal Reserve, along with the Comptroller of the Currency and the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation, have adopted new capital guidelines to supplement
the existing definitions of capital for regulatory purposes and to establish
minimum capital standards. Specifically, the guidelines categorize assets and
off-balance sheet items into four risk-weighted categories. At September 30,
1997 and December 31, 1996, the required minimum ratio of qualifying total
capital to risk-weighted assets was 8.0%, of which 4.0% must be tier-one
capital. Tier-one capital generally includes stockholders' equity, retained

New Accounting Pronouncements
The Financial Accounting Standards Board recently issued Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 128 entitled Earnings per Share, which is effective for
financial statements for both interim and annual periods ending after December
31, 1997. Early adoption of the statement is not permitted. The Company has
applied this statement to the nine month periods ended September 30, 1997 and
1996, and the year ended December 31, 1996, and has determined that the adoption
of this statement would not have a material impact on the earnings per share
calculations for these periods. After adoption, all prior period earnings per
share calculations will be restated to comply with this statement.
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive
Income, establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income
and its components (revenues, expenses, gains or losses) in a full set of
general-purpose financial statements. It is effective for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 1997. This Statement requires that all items that are
required to be recognized under accounting standards as components of
comprehensive income be reported in a financial statement that is displayed with
the same prominence as other financial statements. Statement No. 130 does not
require a specific format for that financial statement but requires that an
enterprise display an amount representing total comprehensive income for the
period in that financial statement. This Statement also requires that an
enterprise (a) classify items of other comprehensive income by their nature in a
financial statements and (b) display the accumulated balance of other
comprehensive income separately from retained earnings and additional paid-in
capital in the equity section of a statement of financial position. The Company
is currently assessing the impact of this statement on its financial statement
presentation. However, the only known item of other comprehensive income to
which this standard would apply is unrealized gains and losses on
available-for-sale securities.
Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise, establishes standards for
the way that public business enterprises report information about operating
segments in annual financial statements, requiring that those enterprises report
selected information about operating segment in interim financial reports issued
to shareholders, and is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 1997.
It also establishes standards for related disclosures about products and
services , geographic areas and major customers. This Statement requires that a
public business enterprise report financial and descriptive information about
its reportable operating segments. Operating segments are components of an
enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is
evaluated regularly by the chief operation decision maker in deciding how to
allocate resources and in assessing performance. Generally, financial
information is required to be reported on the basis that is used internally for
evaluating segment evaluating segment performance and deciding how to allocate
resources to segments.
Statement No. 131 also requires that a public business enterprise report a
measure of segment profit or loss, certain specific revenue and expense items
and segment assets. It requires reconciliations of total segment revenues, total
segment profit or loss, total segment assets, and other amounts disclosed for
segments to corresponding amounts in the enterprise's general-purpose financial
statements. It requires that all public business enterprises report information
about the revenues derived from the enterprise's products or services (or group
of similar products and services), about the countries in which the enterprise
earns revenues and holds assets, and about major customers regardless of whether
that information is used in making operating decisions. However, this Statement
does not require an enterprise to report information that is not prepared for
internal use if reporting would be impracticable. Management is currently
assessing the impact of this statement on its future financial statement
disclosures.
Year 2000 Project
The Year 2000 presents problems for businesses that are dependent on computer
hardware and software to perform date dependent calculations and logic
comparisons. A great deal of software and microchip technology was developed
utilizing two digit years rather than four digit years (example: 97 instead of
1997). Technology utilizing two digit years most likely will not be able to
distinguish the year 2000 from 1900, and therefore may shut down or perform
miscalculations and comparisons as much as a 100 years off.
Management is fully aware this presents a potential business disruption, and has
begun a program of due diligence in addressing the impact of the Year 2000 on
the Company and its subsidiaries operations. Presently, committees have been
appointed, which are in the discovery stage to identify all areas and processes
rendering exposure to the Year 2000 problem. Once identified, areas of exposure
will be prioritized as to severity and time to cure, with a plan developed to
make the Company and its subsidiaries Year 2000 compliant. Management
anticipates the Company and its subsidiaries will be Year 2000 compliant, thus
satisfying all regulatory requirements.
