NEW COMMERCE BANCORP
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 - Nature of Business and Basis of Presentation
Business activity and organization
New Commerce Bancorp (the "Company") was incorporated to operate as a
bank holding company pursuant to the Federal Bank Holding Company Act of 1956
and the South Carolina Bank Holding Company Act, and to purchase 100% of the
issued and outstanding stock of New Commerce Bank (the "Bank"), an association
organized under the laws of the United States, to conduct a general banking
business in Simpsonville, South Carolina.
Since inception through May 17, 1999, the Company had engaged in
organizational and preopening activities necessary to obtain regulatory
approvals and to prepare its subsidiary, the Bank, to commence business as a
financial institution. On May 17, 1999, the Bank opened for business. The Bank
is primarily engaged in the business of accepting demand deposits and savings
insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, and providing commercial,
consumer and mortgage loans to the general public.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information
and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB. Accordingly, they do not include all
the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for
a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the six-month
period ended June 30, 1999 are not necessarily indicative of the results that
may be expected for the year ending December 31, 1999. For further information,
refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included
in the Company's Registration Statement on Form SB-2 (Registration Number
333-70589) as filed with and declared effective by the Securities and Exchange
Commission.
Until the Bank opened for business on May 17, 1999, the Company was
accounted for as a development stage enterprise as defined by Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 7, "Accounting and Reporting by Development
Stage Enterprises," as the Company devoted substantially all of its efforts to
establishing a new business. When the Bank opened, certain reclassifications
and adjustments were made to the financial statements to reflect that the
Company is now accounted for as an operating company.
6
<PAGE> 7
Note 2 - Net Loss Per Common Share
SFAS No. 128, "Earnings per Share" requires that the Company present
basic and diluted net income per share. Net loss per common share is calculated
by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding for each period presented. The weighted average number of common
shares outstanding for basic net loss per common share was 1,000,000 for the
six months ended June 30, 1999, and 1,000,000 for the three months ended June
30, 1999. The Company did not have any common stock equivalents during the six
months ended June 30, 1999.
Part 1 - FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operation.
The following discussion contains forward-looking statements within
the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, such as
statements relating to financial results and plans for future business
development activities, and are thus prospective. Such forward-looking
statements are subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors which could
cause actual results to differ materially from future results expressed or
implied by such forward-looking statements. These statements appear in a number
of places in this report and include all statements that are not statements of
historical fact regarding our intent, belief, or expectations. These
forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and actual
results may differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking
statements. Potential risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to,
our brief operating history, our ability to manage rapid growth, general
economic conditions, competition, interest rate sensitivity, and exposure to
regulatory and legislative changes. Additional risks are discussed in detail in
our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the "Risk
Factors" section in our Registration Statement on Form SB-2 (Registration
Number 333-70589) as filed with and declared effective by the Securities and
Exchange Commission.
Until May 17, 1999, the Company's principal activities related to its
organization, the conducting of its initial public offering, the pursuit of
approvals from the OCC for its application to charter the Bank, and the pursuit
of approvals from the FDIC for its application for insurance of the deposits of
the Bank. In February 1999, the Company received preliminary approval from the
OCC to charter the Bank. On March 10, 1999, the FDIC granted preliminary
approval of deposit insurance application for the Bank. The Bank opened for
business on May 17, 1999.
The Company completed its stock offering on June 30, 1999 and sold the
maximum of 1,000,000 shares of its common stock at $10 per share. The maximum
offering raised $9,786,000, representing $10,000,000 in capital, reduced by
sales agent commissions of $144,195 and stock offering expenses of $69,057. The
Company capitalized the Bank with $8,250,000 of the proceeds of the stock
offering. The remaining offering proceeds will be used to pay organization
expenses of the Company and provide working capital, including additional
future capital for investment in the Bank, if needed. The Company believes this
amount will be sufficient to fund the activities of the Bank in its initial
stages of operations, and that the Bank will generate sufficient income from
operations to fund its activities on an ongoing basis. However, there can be no
assurance that either the Bank or the Company will achieve any particular level
of profitability.
At June 30, 1999, the Company had total assets of $14,091,000,
consisting principally of cash and due from banks of $752,000, federal funds
sold of $8,585,000, net loans of $2,607,000, and property, at cost less
accumulated depreciation, of $1,739,000. Liabilities at June 30, 1999 totaled
7
<PAGE> 8
$4,746,000, consisting of deposits of $4,715,000 and accrued expenses and other
liabilities of $31,000. At June 30, 1999, shareholders' equity was $9,346,000.
The Company had a net loss of $394,500 for the six months ended June
30, 1999. These losses resulted primarily from expenses incurred in connection
with activities relating to the organization of the Company and preopening
activities of the Bank. These activities included (without limitation) the
preparation and filing of an application with the OCC to charter the Bank, the
preparation and filing of an application with the FDIC to obtain insurance of
the deposits of the Bank, responding to questions and providing additional
information to the OCC and FDIC in connection with the application process, the
selling of the Company's common stock in the offering, meetings and discussions
among various organizers regarding application information, target markets, and
capitalization issues, salaries and benefits, and planning and organizing for
the opening of the Bank. With respect to the Bank, these activities included
completing all required steps for final approval from the OCC for the Bank to
open for business, hiring qualified personnel to work in the Bank, conducting
public relations activities on behalf of the Bank, developing prospective
business contacts for the Bank and taking other actions necessary for a
successful bank opening. Through June 30, 1999, the Company incurred
organization and preopening costs of approximately $469,000. These costs were
expensed when incurred in accordance with SOP 98-5, "Reporting on the Costs of
Start-Up Activities". Because the Bank did not open until May 17, 1999, it has
had minimal operations from which to generate revenues.
From its opening date through June 30, 1999, the Bank raised $4.7
million in deposits and loaned $2.6 million, net of the loan loss reserve. Net
interest income totaled $71,000 and net interest income after the provision for
loan losses amounted to $48,000. Since the Bank has been open for less than two
months, a more detailed discussion of the Bank's results of operations is not
meaningful.
Year 2000 Readiness
Like many financial institutions, we rely on computers to conduct our
business and information systems processing. Industry experts are concerned
that on January 1, 2000, some computers may not be able to interpret the new
year properly, causing computer malfunctions. As described in more detail
below, we have developed and are executing a plan to insure that our computer
and telecommunication systems do not have these year 2000 problems and we do
not anticipate that the year 2000 issue will materially impact our business or
operations. We rely on third party vendors to supply our computer and
telecommunication systems and other office equipment, and we also rely on a
third party to process our data and account information. As a new bank, we had
the ability to choose only those vendors who are ready for the year 2000 and,
therefore, would not have to address problems in older systems. Although we
believe we have addressed the year 2000 issue, we cannot be entirely sure that
the year 2000 will not have any adverse effect on the Bank.
We have prepared a comprehensive year 2000 plan to monitor and ensure
the year 2000 compliance of our third party vendors of computer and
telecommunication systems, data processing services and other office equipment.
We have budgeted $12,000 for the execution of this plan and the plan calls for
us to have all systems in place and be fully year 2000 compliant by August 30,
1999, although the plan calls for us to continue to monitor the situation
through the end of the year and beyond. We are executing this plan under the
supervision of our chief financial officer, with oversight from our board of
directors. Under the plan, we have investigated the year 2000 readiness of each
vendor and required comprehensive year 2000 warranties from each vendor. We
have reviewed year 2000 testing completed by each vendor, and tested our own
systems to the extent we deemed necessary. Our investigation of each vendor
primarily consists of requesting and reviewing its year 2000 test results.
8
<PAGE> 9
Jack Henry & Associates, Inc. provides our mission critical computer
software and data processing services. Jack Henry is a well-established company
and provides computer systems and data processing services to hundreds of
financial institutions throughout the United States. Jack Henry has tested its
systems for year 2000 issues. Rather than test all of its customers
individually, Jack Henry, like other vendors, tested its systems on selected
financial institutions which run its systems under a variety of conditions and
configurations. The purpose of this selective testing is to avoid the
prohibitive cost of testing every installed system, while still providing a
high level of comfort that its systems will perform under all conditions.
Banking regulators have approved this type of testing as a valid means of
testing. Jack Henry has completed testing of the systems we are using. We have
reviewed the methods and results of this testing and are satisfied that the
tested systems are similar to ours and that the Jack Henry systems will
function as intended on all critical year 2000 related dates.
Our year 2000 plan extends to our other less critical vendors as well,
including our vendors for ATM hardware, telephone systems, credit card
processors, and suppliers of office equipment. Under our plan, we have reviewed
assurances and warranties of all of these vendors and intend to be satisfied
that all systems provided are year 2000 compliant before August 31, 1999. Based
on our review of our vendor's systems and year 2000 testing results to date, we
do not believe that they will have any significant year 2000 problems. The
Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and the FDIC are also monitoring the
year 2000 readiness of the banking industry.
Our agreements with each of our vendors, including Jack Henry, do
include contractual assurances and warranties regarding year 2000 compliance.
Some of these warranties are limited by disclaimers of liability which
specifically exclude special, incidental, indirect, and consequential damages.
These limitations could limit our ability to obtain recourse against a vendor
which is not year 2000 compliant by excluding damages for things such as lost
profits and customer lawsuits. We are also in the process of evaluating our
worst case scenario and developing contingency plans in case year 2000 issues
do arise. We expect to have our contingency plans in place by August 31, 1999.
Based on the information currently available, we believe that we will be able
to continue to operate the business if one or more our vendors experience
unanticipated year 2000 problems.
Our customers may also have year 2000 issues. These issues could
disrupt certain businesses with high year 2000 risk and affect their deposit
balances and their ability to repay their loans. We are reviewing customer
exposure and assessing year 2000 readiness through year 2000 surveys. For those
customers with high credit risk and high potential exposure, we may require
more substantial proof of year 2000 compliance. Although these surveys are
helpful, it is very difficult for us to accurately assess the year 2000
readiness of any particular borrower or depositor. Additionally, there may be a
higher than usual demand for liquidity immediately prior to the century change
due to deposit withdrawals by customers concerned about year 2000 issues. To
address this possible demand, we have developed a liquidity plan to include
assessment of cash needs and we plan to have a higher percentage of investments
in readily accessible federal funds. We have federal funds lines of credit
available from two major correspondent banks and are in the process of
obtaining approval to have the ability to use the Federal Reserve Bank's
discount window.
