NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accounting and reporting policies of ABC Bancorp and subsidiaries ("the
Company") conform to generally accepted accounting principles and to general
practices within the banking industry. The interim consolidated financial
statements included herein are unaudited, but reflect all adjustments which, in
the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the
consolidated financial position and results of operations for the interim
periods presented. All adjustments reflected in the interim financial
statements are of a normal recurring nature. Such financial statements should
be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto and the
report of independent auditors included in the Company's Form 10-KSB Annual
Report for the year ended December 31, 1994. The results of operations for the
nine months ended September 30, 1995 are not necessarily indicative of the
results to be expected for the full year.
NOTE 2. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
As of July 17, 1995, a 4-for-3 stock split in the form of a Common Stock
dividend on the outstanding shares of the Company's Common Stock became
effective. Fractional shares were paid in cash. All per share information
reflects retroactively this stock split.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------
Liquidity management involves the matching of the cash flow
requirements of customers who may be either depositors desiring to withdraw
funds or borrowers needing assurance that sufficient funds will be available to
meet their credit needs and the ability of the ABC Bancorp and subsidiaries (the
"Company") to meet those needs. The Company seeks to meet liquidity
requirements primarily through management of short-term investments (principally
Federal funds sold) and monthly amortizing loans. Another source of liquidity
is the repayment of maturing single payment loans. Also, the subsidiary banks
(the "Banks") maintain relationships with correspondent banks which could
provide funds to them on short notice, if needed.
The liquidity and capital resources of the Company is monitored on a
periodic basis by state and Federal regulatory authorities. As determined under
guidelines established by these regulatory authorities, the Banks' liquidity
ratios at September 30, 1995 were considered satisfactory. At that date, the
Banks' short-term investments were adequate to cover any reasonably anticipated
immediate need for funds. The Company is aware of no events or trends likely to
result in a material change in liquidity. At September 30, 1995, the Company's
and the Banks' capital asset ratios were considered adequate based on guidelines
established by regulatory authorities. After recording an increase in capital
of $20,032 for unrealized gains on securities, net of taxes, total capital
increased during the third quarter of 1995 by $766,893. At September 30, 1995,
total capital of the Company amounted to $32,906,421. At September 30, 1995,
there were no outstanding commitments for any major capital expenditures.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The Company's results of operations are determined by its ability to
effectively manage interest income and expense, to minimize loan and investment
losses, to generate noninterest income and to control noninterest expense.
Since interest rates are determined by market forces and economic conditions
beyond the control of the Company, the ability to generate net interest income
is dependent upon the Banks' ability to obtain an adequate spread between the
rate earned on interest-earning assets and the rate paid on interest-bearing
liabilities. Thus, the key performance measure for net interest income is the
interest margin or net yield, which is taxable-equivalent net interest income
divided by average earning assets.
9
<PAGE>
RESULTS OF OPERATION (CONTINUED)
The primary component of consolidated earnings is net interest income,
or the difference between interest income on interest-earning assets and
interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities. The net interest margin is net
interest income expressed as a percentage of average interest-earning assets.
Interest-earning assets consist of loans, investment securities and Federal
funds sold. Interest-bearing liabilities consist of deposits,(of which
approximately 16% are noninterest-bearing) and borrowings such as Federal funds
purchased, securities sold under repurchase agreements and Federal Home Loan
Bank advances. A portion of interest income is earned on tax-exempt
investments, such as state and municipal bonds. In an effort to state this tax-
exempt income and its resultant yields on a basis comparable to all other
taxable investments, an adjustment is made to analyze this income on a taxable-
equivalent basis.
The net interest margin was 5.92% and 5.48% during the nine months
ended September 30, 1995 and 1994, respectively, an increase of 8.3%. This
increase in net interest margin was achieved by an increase of 10 basis points
on average yield earned on interest-earning assets accompanied by a decrease of
6 basis points in average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities. Net
interest income on a taxable-equivalent basis was $11,962,000 as compared to
$9,885,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 1995 and 1994,
respectively, representing an increase of 21.0%. Net interest income on a
taxable-equivalent basis was $4,038,000 as compared to $3,553,000 during the
three months ended September 30, 1995 and 1994, respectively, representing an
increase of 13.7%.
Average interest-earning assets increased by $23,668,000 to
$264,620,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 1995 from $240,952,000
during the nine months ended September 30, 1994. Average loans increased by
$24,410,000; average investments increased by $2,713,941; and average Federal
funds sold decreased by $536,900. The increase in average interest-earning
assets was funded by an increase in average deposits of $20,724,000 or 8.6% to
$260,618,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 1995 from $239,894,000
during the nine months ended September 30, 1994. Approximately 16% of the
average deposits were noninterest-bearing during the nine months ended September
30, 1995 as compared to 16% during the nine months ended September 30, 1994.
10
<PAGE>
RESULTS OF OPERATION (CONTINUED)
The allowance for loan losses represents a reserve for potential
losses in the loan portfolio. The adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is
evaluated periodically based on a review of all significant loans, with a
particular emphasis on nonaccruing, past due and other loans that management
believes require attention.
The provision for loan losses is a charge to earnings in the current
period to replenish the allowance and maintain it at a level management has
determined to be adequate. The provision for loan losses charged to earnings
amounted to $206,000 and $566,000 during the three and nine months ended
September 30, 1995 and $191,000 and $603,000 during the three and nine months
ended September 30, 1994. Charge-offs, net of recoveries, amounted to $57,000
and $44,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 1995 and 1994,
respectively. The allowance for loan losses was 2.0% and 2.3% of total loans
outstanding at September 30, 1995 and 1994, respectively. The determination of
the allowance rests upon management's judgment about factors affecting loan
quality and assumptions about the local and national economy. Management
considers the quarter-end allowance for loan losses adequate to cover potential
losses in the loan portfolio.
Following is a comparison of noninterest income for the three and nine
months ended September 30, 1995 and 1994. (dollars in thousands)
