CODDLE CREEK FINANCIAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. (UNAUDITED)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Note 1.    Nature of Business

On December 30, 1997, pursuant to a Plan of Conversion which was approved by it
members and regulators, Mooresville Savings Bank, Inc., SSB (the "Bank" or
"Mooresville Savings Bank") converted from a North Carolina-chartered mutual
savings bank to a North Carolina-chartered stock savings bank (the "Conversion")
and became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Coddle Creek Financial Corp. (the
"Company").  Coddle Creek was formed to acquire all of the common stock of the
Bank upon its conversion to stock form.  The Company has no operations and
conducts no business of its own other than owning Mooresville Savings, investing
its portion of the net proceeds received in the Conversion, and lending funds to
the Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the "ESOP"), which was established in
connection with the Conversion.  The closing of the offering occurred on
December 30, 1997 and resulted in the issuance of 674,475 shares of common stock
at a price of $50.00 per share, for proceeds of $32,494,000 (net of $1,230,000
in conversion costs).  The Company transferred $14,134,000 of the net proceeds
to Mooresville Savings for the purchase of all of the common stock of the Bank.
The Company then loaned the ESOP trust $4,216,000 to purchase 53,958 shares of
common stock in the open market.

Mooresville 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, occupancy costs, furniture and
fixture expense, data processing charges, and other general and administrative
expenses.

Concurrent with the Conversion, and pursuant to North Carolina regulations, the
Bank established a liquidation account in an amount equal to its net worth as
reflected in its latest statement of financial condition contained in the
prospectus used in connection with the Company's initial public offering.  The
liquidation account will be maintained for the benefit of eligible deposit
account holders who continue to maintain their deposit accounts in the Bank
after conversion.  Only in the event of a complete liquidation of the Company
will each deposit account holder be entitled to receive a liquidation
distribution from the liquidation account in the amount of the then current
adjusted subaccount balance for deposit accounts then held before any
liquidation distribution may be made with respect to common stock.  Dividends
paid by the Bank subsequent to the Conversion cannot be paid from this
liquidation account.

In connection with the Conversion, the Bank has agreed with the FDIC that,
within the first three years after completion of the Conversion, neither the
Company nor the Bank will pay any taxable dividend or make any taxable
distribution in excess of their current and retained earnings.  The Company and
the Bank have agreed to notify the FDIC before making a return of capital during
the first three years following the Conversion.

Note 1.     Nature of Business (Continued)

The Bank may not declare or pay a cash dividend on or repurchase any of its
common stock if its net worth would thereby be reduced below either the
aggregate amount then required for the liquidation account or the minimum
regulatory capital requirements imposed by federal and state regulations.  For a
period of five years after its Conversion, the Bank must obtain written approval
from the Administrator of the North Carolina Savings Institutions Division
before declaring or paying a cash dividend on its common stock in an amount  in
excess of one-half of the greater of (i) the Bank's net income for the most
recent fiscal year end, or (ii) the average of the Bank's net income after
dividends for the most recent year end and  not more than two of the immediately
preceding fiscal year ends.

Note 2.    Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited financial statements (except for the statement of
financial condition at December 31, 1999, which is from audited financial
statements at that date) have been prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the
instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include
all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
principles for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all
adjustments (none of which were other than normal recurring accruals, except for
the implementation of the Management Recognition Plan discussed in Note 5)
necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of
operations for the periods presented have been included.  The results of
operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2000 are not
necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be expected for the
year ended December 31, 2000.  The accounting policies followed are as set forth
in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated  Financial Statements in the 1999 Annual
Report to the Stockholders.

Note 3.    Earnings Per Share

Earnings per share has been calculated in accordance with Financial Accounting
Standards Board Statement No. 128, Earnings Per Share, and Statement of Position
93-6, Employers' Accounting for Employee Stock Ownership Plans.  For purposes of
this computation, the number of shares of common stock purchased by the Bank's
ESOP which have not been allocated to participant accounts are not assumed to be
outstanding.

The following are reconciliations of the amounts used in the per share
calculations for 2000 and 1999:

Note 4.    Dividends Declared

On June 13, 2000 the Board of Directors of Coddle Creek Financial Corp. declared
a dividend of $0.61 per share for stockholders of record as of June 30, 2000 and
payable on July 14, 2000.  The dividends declared were accrued and reported as
other liabilities in the June 30, 2000 condensed consolidated statement of
financial condition.

Note 5.    Stock Option and Management Recognition Plans

The Company's stockholders approved the Company's Stock Option Plan and the
Bank's Management Recognition Plan (the "MRP") on January 26, 1999.  The Stock
Option Plan reserves for issuance up to 67,447 stock options to officers,
directors, and employees either in the form of incentive stock options or non-
incentive stock options.  The exercise price of the stock options may not be
less than the fair value of the Company's common stock at date of grant.  As
permitted under generally accepted accounting principles, grants under the plan
will be accounted for following the provisions of APB Opinion No. 25 and its
related interpretations.  At June 30, 2000, 58,136 options have been granted at
an exercise price of $31.00, of which 22,120 are currently exercisable.  No
options have been exercised to date and all options granted are outstanding at
June 30, 2000.

The MRP reserved for issuance 26,979 shares of common stock to officers,
directors, and employees.  The Bank issued 24,281 shares and 400 shares from
authorized but unissued common stock to fund the MRP on January 26, 1999 and
January 26, 2000, respectively.  The restricted common stock under the MRP vests
25% at the date of grant and 25% annually beginning on the one year anniversary
of the date of grant.

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

Comparison of Financial Condition at June 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999:

At June 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999 total assets amounted to $151.5 million
and $143.9 million, respectively.  Loans receivable, net, increased from $124.9
million at December 31, 1999 to $130.6 million at June 30, 2000, a $5.8 million
increase.  Savings deposits increased $1.5 million from $90.6 million at
December 31, 1999 to $92.1 million at June 30, 2000.  Investment securities
decreased $149,000 from $5.8 million at December 31, 1999 to $5.6 million at
June 30, 2000 due to the maturity of securities during the first six months of
2000.  Retained earnings decreased by $3,000 for the six months ended June 30,
2000.  This decrease is due to net income of $602,000, offset by $605,000 of
dividends declared.

The Bank's level of nonperforming loans, defined as loans past due 90 days or
more, has historically been and continues to be low as a percentage of total
loans outstanding.  The Bank had $1.3 million of loans outstanding which were
delinquent more than 90 days at June 30, 2000, compared to $1.4 million at
December 31, 1999.  Based on management's analysis of the adequacy of the
allowance for loan losses, the composition of the loan portfolio, the credit
risk inherent in the portfolio and historical loan loss experience, the
allowance for loan losses is $898,000 at June 30, 2000 and at December 31, 1999.
Management believes the allowance to be adequate to absorb any future losses in
the portfolio.

At June 30, 2000, the Company's capital amounted to $34.5 million, which as a
percentage of total consolidated assets was 22.8%, and was considerably in
excess of the regulatory capital requirements at such date.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2000
and 1999:

General.  Net income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000 was
$271,000 and $602,000 respectively compared to $442,000 and $642,000 earned
during the same periods in 1999.

Interest income.  Interest income increased $382,000 to $2.9 million for the
three months ended June 30, 2000 from $2.5 million for the three months ended
June 30, 1999.  Interest income increased $551,000 to $5.5 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2000 from $5.0 million for the six months ended June 30,
1999.  The increase is primarily due to an increase in the both the interest
rates earned and average balance of loans receivable during the first six months
of 2000 as compared to 1999.  Approximately  97% of the Bank's assets were
interest-earning at June 30, 2000, and approximately 89% of such interest-
earning assets were held in the form of loans receivable.

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

Interest Expense.   Interest expense increased by $477,000 from $982,000 during
the three months ended June 30, 1999 to $1.5 million for the three months ended
June 30, 2000.   Interest expense increased by $791,000 from $2.0 million during
the six months ended June 30, 1999 to $2.7 million for the six months ended June
30, 2000.  The increase is due to FHLB advances and notes payable outstanding
during the first two quarters of 2000 in comparison to the same period a year
earlier.

Net interest income.  Net interest income decreased $95,000 from $1.5 million
for the three months ended June 30, 1999 to $1.4 million for the three months
ended June 30, 2000.  Net interest income decreased by $240,000 from $3.0
million for the six months ended June 30, 1999 to $2.8 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2000.  The decrease is primarily due to the increase in
interest expense discussed above.

Provision for loan losses.  The Bank did not make any loan loss provisions
during the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively.  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.

The Bank's level of nonperforming loans has remained consistently low in
relation to prior periods and total loans outstanding.  At June 30, 2000, the
Bank's level of general valuation allowances for loan losses amounted to
$898,000, which management believes is adequate to absorb potential losses in
its loan portfolio.

Noninterest expense.  Noninterest expense increased from $905,000 for the three
months ended June 30, 1999 to $1.0 million for the three months ended June 30,
2000.  Noninterest expense decreased from $2.2 million for the six months ended
June 30, 1999 to $2.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2000.
Compensation expense included $187,000 of MRP expense for the six months ended
June 30, 2000 compared to $482,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1999.  All
other categories of noninterest expense fluctuated by insignificant amounts
between the two periods.

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

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.

Mooresville Savings Bank must maintain liquidity in the form of cash, cash
equivalents and investment securities, including mortgage-backed securities,
equal to at least 10% of total assets.  The Bank's liquidity has increased
slightly from December 31, 1999 as FHLB advances are used to fund loan growth.
The Bank's liquidity ratio at June 30, 2000 was considerably 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.

Impact of the 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
