OCONEE FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
(1) BASIS OF PRESENTATION
---------------------
The financial statements include the accounts of Oconee Financial
Corporation (the "Corporation") and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Oconee
State Bank (the "Bank"). All significant intercompany accounts and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The consolidated financial information furnished herein reflects all
adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to
present a fair statement of the results of operations and financial
position for the periods covered herein. All such adjustments are of a
normal recurring nature.
(2) CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
-------------------------
For presentation in the financial statements, cash and cash equivalents
include cash on hand and amounts due from banks.
(3) NET EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE
-----------------------------
Earnings per common share are based on the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding during the period while the effects of
potential common shares outstanding during the period are included in
diluted earnings per share. The Corporation had no potential common
shares outstanding during 2000 and 1999.
(4) IMPLEMENTATION OF RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
--------------------------------------------------
The Corporation adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities",
(SFAS No. 133") during the third quarter of 1999. As allowed by SFAS
No. 133, an entity may transfer any held to maturity security into the
available for sale or trading category without calling into question
the entity's intent to hold other securities to maturity in the future.
The result of the transfer of held to maturity securities to the
available for sale category was to increase stockholders' equity
approximately $22,000 which represented the net effect of the
unrealized gain associated with the held to maturity investments
transferred. There were no other financial statement effects associated
with the implementation of SFAS No. 133.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
For the Nine-Month Periods Ended September 30, 2000 and 1999
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENT
This discussion contains forward-looking statements under the private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that involve risk and uncertainties.
Although the Corporation believes that the assumptions underlying the
forward-looking statements contained in the discussion are reasonable, any of
the assumptions could be inaccurate, and therefore, no assurance can be made
that any of the forward-looking statements included in this discussion will be
accurate. Factors that could cause actual results to differ from results
discussed in forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to:
economic conditions (both generally and in the markets where the Corporation
operates); competition from other providers of financial services offered by the
Corporation; government regulations and legislation; changes in interest rates;
material unforeseen changes in the financial stability and liquidity of the
Corporation's credit customers, all of which are difficult to predict and which
may be beyond the control of the Corporation. The Corporation undertakes no
obligation to revise forward-looking statements to reflect events or changes
after the date of this discussion or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated
events.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
Total assets at September 30, 2000 were $169,596,734, representing a
$17,458,166 (11.48%) increase from December 31, 1999. Deposits increased
$2,250,435 (1.65%) from December 31, 1999. Loans increased $27,653,381 (29.63%).
The increase in loan volume is due primarily to an increase in loans to finance
commercial real estate. The allowance for loan losses at September 30, 2000
totaled $1,700,696 compared to the December 31, 1999 total of $1,469,126,
representing 1.41% of total loans at September 30, 2000, compared to 1.57% at
December 31, 1999. Cash and cash equivalents decreased $3,428,983 from December
31, 1999.
The total of nonperforming assets, which includes nonaccruing loans,
other real estate owned, repossessed collateral and loans for which payments are
more than 90 days past due were $260,398 at September 30, 2000, representing an
increase of $181,990 (232.11%) from December 31, 1999. This increase is
primarily attributable to a $194,194 increase in nonaccruing loans and a $13,397
decrease in repossessed collateral. There were no related party loans which were
considered nonperforming at September 30, 2000.
The Corporation's subsidiary bank was most recently examined by its
primary regulatory authority in October of 1999. There were no recommendations
by the regulatory authority that in management's opinion will have material
effects on the Company's liquidity, capital resources or operations.

<PAGE>
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net interest income increased $1,142,408 (24.42%) in the first nine
months of 2000 compared to the same period for 1999. Interest income for the
first nine months of 2000 was $10,161,826, representing an increase of
$2,421,266 (31.28%) over the same period in 1999. Interest expense for the first
nine months of 2000 increased $1,278,858 (41.77%) compared to the same period in
1999. The increase in net interest income during the first nine months of 2000
compared to the same period in 1999 is primarily attributable to the increase in
the volume of loans, as well as a 100 basis point increase in the prime lending
rate during the first nine months of 2000. The increase in interest expense is
primarily attributable to interest on a Federal Home Loan Bank advance in the
amount of $86,664 that the Bank secured during 2000, as well as growth in the
Bank's deposits and an increase in the interest rates paid on deposits.
The Bank analyzes its allowance for loan losses on a monthly basis. Due
to unbudgeted loan growth, the Bank has provided $107,400 over the budgeted
provision expense during the first nine months of 2000. It is management's
belief that the allowance for loan losses is adequate to absorb possible losses
in the portfolio.
Other expenses for the nine months of 2000 increased $644,718 (19.17%)
compared to the first nine months in 1999. The net increase is primarily
attributable to additional salary and benefits expense as a result of opening
a loan production office in July 1999 and a new branch in January 2000.
LIQUIDITY
The Corporation must maintain, on a daily basis, sufficient funds to
cover the withdrawals from depositors' accounts and to supply new borrowers with
funds. To meet these obligations, the Corporation keeps cash on hand, maintains
account balances with its correspondent banks, and purchases and sells federal
funds and other short-term investments. Asset and liability maturities are
monitored in an attempt to match these to meet liquidity needs. It is the policy
of the Corporation to monitor its liquidity to meet regulatory requirements and
their local funding requirements.
The Corporation maintains relationships with correspondent banks that
can provide funds to it on short notice, if needed. Presently, the Corporation
has arrangements with a commercial bank for short term unsecured advances up to
$4,000,000. Additional liquidity is provided to the Corporation through
available Federal Home Loan Bank advances up to $22,800,000. As of September 30,
2000, the Corporation had $13,300,000 in advances outstanding from the Federal
Home Loan Bank. This advance matures August 25, 2003, and carries an interest
rate of 6.34%. It is secured by the Bank's loans on 1 to 4 family residential
properties.
