NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements in this report
have not been audited. The statements have been prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles and general practice
within the banking industry.
On February 28, 1990, the merger of Georgia Peoples Bankshares,
Inc. into South Banking Company was completed. The purchase method of
accounting was used to record this transaction. The activity of Georgia
Peoples Bankshares, Inc. since February 28, 1990 has been consolidated
in these statements.
Effective January 1, 1993, the Company adopted FASB 109 regarding
recording of deferred income taxes. Prior year statements have been
restated to reflect an adjustment required of $58,508 reduction in
deferred taxes and an increase in equity.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments for the fair
presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the
interim periods have been made.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
During the first quarter of 1996, Pineland State Bank of Metter,
Georgia was acquired by South Banking Company. Effective January 11,
1996, the accounts of Pineland State Bank have been consolidated with
South Banking Company. This consolidation increased all asset and
liability accounts substantially. Pineland State Bank had approximately
$28,018,269 in total assets on the date of acquisition comprised of
$13,015,841 in net loans, $4,183,068 in securities, $6,334,000 in
federal funds, $2,439,744 in cash and $2,045,616 in fixed and other
assets. Pineland State Bank's liabilities consisted of $25,055,311 in
deposits and $21,724,385 in other liabilities. All assets and
liabilities have been recorded using the purchase method of accounting.
This acquisition must be taken into consideration when comparing current
year to date numbers with prior period. All of this discussion will
take into consideration the acquired assets and liabilities.
During the second quarter of 1996, total assets decreased
$1,149,450. The banks have been successful in maintaining core deposits
and have not attempted to attract higher yielding "hot" money. Loan
demand increased by $9,563,481 during this quarter. The banks continue
to attempt to place more good quality higher yielding loans on the
books. The loan continues to perform well and has not impacted the
reserve for loan losses. Part of the loan demand is seasonal; however,
the banks have been able to attract good quality nonseasonal loans also.
Net income increased by $79,822 for the nine month period in 1996
and $42,333 for the six month period compared to 1995. The increase is
after an income by Pineland State Bank of $8,271 for the quarter and
loss of $(5,313) for the six months and additional interest expense
associated with the purchase of Pineland stock. Improvement in the
performance of Pineland State Bank has been initiated and should
continue in the foreseeable future. With the exception of Pineland
State Bank, which is improving, the banks continue to maintain good
interest margins. If the prime rate drops, the banks could experience
some decline in margins. Pineland State Bank's interest margins should
continue to improve as high yielding certificates mature and are
replaced with certificates closer to actual market.
Provision for loan losses are maintained at levels that are
adequate based on management's evaluation of the loan portfolio.
Pineland State Bank has a substantial reserve to handle any problems
that might arise. Pineland's reserve has been increased substantially
in prior years due to loan problems. Most of the problems have been
worked out and reserve remains more than adequate.
