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

The following is a discussion of the Company's financial condition as of
September 30, 2000 compared to December 31, 1999, and the results of operations
for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2000 compared to the three and
nine months ended September 30, 1999. These comments should be read in
conjunction with the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements and
accompanying footnotes appearing in this report.

Results of Operations
---------------------

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

For the nine months ended September 30, 2000, net interest income increased
$280,944 or 10.26% over the same period in 1999. The net interest margin
realized on earning assets increased from 4.23% for the nine months ended
September 30, 1999 to 4.49% for the same period in 2000. The interest rate
spread increased by 22 basis points from 3.63% at September 30, 1999 to 3.85% at
September 30, 2000.

Net interest income increased from $962,598 for the quarter ending September 30,
1999 to $1,004,651 for the quarter ending September 30, 2000. This represents an
increase of $42,053 or 4.37%. The net interest margin realized on earning assets
increased from 4.33% for the quarter ended September 30, 1999 to 4.53% for the
quarter ended September 30, 2000. The interest rate spread also increased by 15
basis points from 3.76% at September 30, 1999 to 3.91% at September 30, 2000.

Provision and Allowance for Loan Losses
---------------------------------------

The provision for loan losses is the charge to operating earnings that
management feels is necessary to maintain the allowance for possible loan losses
at an adequate level. For the nine months ended September 30, 2000, the
provision charged to expense was $230,000. This was $20,000 less than for the
comparable period in 1999. Based on present information, management believes the
allowance for loan losses is adequate at September 30, 2000 to meet presently
known and inherent risks in the loan portfolio. The allowance for loan losses is
1.78% of total loans at September 30, 2000, as compared to 1.82% at September
30, 1999.

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

Noninterest income during the nine months ended September 30, 2000 was $382,496,
an increase of $21,354 or 5.91% from the comparable period in 1999. The increase
is primarily a result of an increase in service charges from $308,134 at
September 30, 1999 to $315,803 at September 30, 2000. Other income also
increased $13,685, or 25.82% to $66,693 for the nine months ended September 30,
2000.

For the quarter ended September 30, 2000, noninterest income increased $801 or
0.65% over the same period in 1999. This increase is primarily due to other
income, which increased 62.19% from the quarter ended September 30, 1999 to the
quarter ended September 30, 2000. Service charges decreased $7,000, or 6.33%, to
$103,595 for the quarter ended September 30, 2000.

Noninterest Expense
-------------------

Total noninterest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 was
$1,474,260 or 8.63% higher than the nine months ended September 30, 1999.
Salaries and employee benefits increased from $654,248 for the nine months ended
September 30, 1999 to $704,428 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000.
This increase is primarily attributable to annual pay raises. Other operating
expenses increased $53,543 or 12.54% to $480,433 for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000 when compared to the same period in 1999.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition - continued
-------------------------------------------------------------------

Noninterest Expense - continued
-------------------

For the quarter ended September 30, 2000, noninterest expense increased $28,868
or 6.14% over the same period in 1999. The largest increase between the quarter
ended September 30, 2000 and the quarter ended September 30, 1999 was in other
operating expenses, which increased $19,097, or 12.79%, for the quarter ended
September 30, 1999 to $168,377 for the quarter ended September 30, 2000.
Salaries and benefits also increased from $224,678 for the quarter ended
September 30, 1999 to $235,127 for the quarter ended September 30, 2000.

Income Taxes
------------

The income tax provision for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 was
$546,683 as compared to $491,716 for the same period in 1999. This increase was
primarily as a result of an increase in income before taxes. The effective tax
rates were 32.18% and 32.92% for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and
September 30, 1999, respectively. The effective tax rates were 31.94% and 31.96%
for the quarter ended September 30, 2000 and September 30, 1999, respectively.

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

The combination of the above factors resulted in net income for the nine months
ended September 30, 2000 of $1,152,073 as compared to $1,001,842 for the same
period in 1999. This represents an increase of $150,231 or 15.00% over the same
period in 1999. Net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2000 was $6,258,
or 1.69% higher than for the same period in 1999.

Assets and Liabilities
----------------------

During the first nine months of 2000, total assets increased $478,326 or 0.49%
when compared to December 31, 1999. Cash and cash equivalents decreased
$6,671,981 from December 31, 1999 primarily because of the reduction in federal
funds sold and repurchase agreements of $4,670,000. The decrease in federal
funds and repurchase agreements was offset by the growth of the loan portfolio,
which increased by 11.49% or $6,853,851 to $66,516,866 at September 30, 2000
from $59,663,015 at December 31, 1999. Deposits also decreased by 1.82% or
$1,577,983 from December 31, 1999 to $85,357,388 at September 30, 2000. The
primary reason for the decrease in deposits was due to the loss of municipal
funds temporarily invested in interest-bearing accounts at the Bank.

Loans
-----

The demand for loans continued to increase in the Walterboro marketplace during
the first nine months of 2000. Gross loans increased $6,853,851 or 11.49% during
the period. Balances within the major loans receivable categories as of
September 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999 are as follows:

Liquidity
---------

Liquidity needs are met by the Company through scheduled maturities of loans and
investments on the asset side and through pricing policies on the liability side
for interest-bearing deposit accounts. The level of liquidity is measured by the
loan-to-total funds ratio, which was at 76.54% at September 30, 2000 and 68.40%
at December 31, 1999.

Securities available-for-sale, which totaled $19,257,022 at September 30, 2000,
serves as a ready source of liquidity. The Company also has lines of credit
available with correspondent banks to purchase federal funds. At September 30,
2000, unused lines of credit totaled $2,500,000.

Capital Resources
-----------------

Total shareholders' equity increased from $8,804,739 at December 31, 1999 to
$9,478,681 at September 30, 2000. The increase of $673,942 is attributable to
earnings for the period of $1,152,073 before the payment of $141,597 in
dividends. Equity was negatively affected by the purchase of treasury stock of
$396,180 during the period.

Bank holding companies, such as the Company, and their banking subsidiaries are
required by banking regulators to meet certain minimum levels of capital
adequacy, which are expressed in the form of certain ratios. Capital is
separated into Tier 1 capital (essentially common shareholders' equity less
intangible assets) and Tier 2 capital (essentially the allowance for loan losses
limited to 1.25% of risk-weighted assets). The first two ratios, which are based
on the degree of credit risk in the Company's assets, provide the weighting of
assets based on assigned risk factors and include off-balance sheet items such
as loan commitments and stand-by letters of credit. The ratio of Tier 1 capital
to risk-weighted assets must be at least 4.0% and the ratio of total capital
(Tier 1 capital plus Tier 2 capital) to risk-weighted assets must be at least
8.0%. The capital leverage ratio supplements the risk-based capital guidelines.
Banks and bank holding companies are required to maintain a minimum ratio of
Tier 1 capital to adjusted quarterly average total assets of 3.0%.

The following table summarizes the Company's risk-based capital at September 30,
2000:
