SOUTHEASTERN BANKING CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Southeastern Banking Corporation (the Company) is a bank holding
company headquartered in Darien, Georgia. Its two subsidiaries, Southeastern
Bank and Southeastern Bank of Florida, operate full-service banking offices in
southeast Georgia and central Florida. Southeastern Bank (SEB), a state banking
association incorporated under the laws of the State of Georgia, operates from
its main office in Darien and its branch offices in Douglas, Eulonia, Folkston,
Hazlehurst, Hoboken, Kingsland, Nahunta, Nicholls, St. Marys, and Woodbine. At
September 30, 1995, Southeastern Bank had total assets of approximately
$245,052,000. Southeastern Bank of Florida (SEBF), a state banking association
incorporated under the laws of the State of Florida, operates from its main
office in Alachua and its branch offices in Gainesville and Jonesville. At
September 30, 1995, Southeastern Bank of Florida had total assets of
approximately $39,918,000. Both banks provide traditional deposit and credit
services to individual and corporate customers.
The primary objective of Southeastern Banking Corporation is to provide
quality banking service to the people in its trade areas while maintaining an
adequate return on investment for its stockholders and a capital base in excess
of regulatory requirements.
On October 14, 1994, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding
common stock of United Citizens Bank of Alachua County, Alachua, Florida under
the name Southeastern Bank of Florida (SEBF). The aggregate consideration paid
for SEBF was approximately $5,139,000.00. The results of operations of SEBF have
been included in the consolidated financial statements from the date of
acquisition forward.
On September 15, 1995, the Company and SEBF signed a definitive
agreement to acquire the Callahan, Hilliard, and Yulee offices of Compass Bank
in North Florida's Nassau County. Geographically, Nassau County borders Camden
and Charlton Counties in South Georgia where the Company has existing offices.
The transaction is subject to the subsequent receipt of all necessary regulatory
approvals. At September 30, 1995, these Compass Bank offices had approximately
$25,000,000 in total assets.
Total assets increased $1,591,060 or .56% at September 30, 1995
compared to December 31, 1994, after increasing $5,947,452 or 2.54% during the
same period in 1994. Deposit growth was the primary factor in the asset growth
at September 30, 1994. At September 30, 1995 and 1994, earning assets
represented approximately 90% of total assets.
Investment securities, exclusive of unrealized gains and losses,
declined .66% during the first nine months of 1995. Holdings in the
available-for-sale portfolio increased $657,631, partially offsetting the
$1,278,886 decline in the held-to-maturity portfolio. During the same period in
1994, investment securities declined $6,350,695 or 6.83%. Funds from the net
principal paydowns, maturities, calls, and sales of these securities were used
to meet increased loan demand.
Generally accepted accounting principles require that securities
classified as available for sale be carried at market value. The higher interest
rates in 1994 meant that the market value of our investment securities
classified as available for sale would decline, resulting in an overall net
unrealized loss at December 31, 1994. Due to the stabilization of interest rates
during the first nine months of 1995, the market value of our investment
securities has increased, resulting in a $2,485,997 reduction in the net
unrealized loss on these securities at September 30, 1995 compared to December
31, 1994.
Loans, net of unearned income, grew $8,634,237 or 5.53% during the
first nine months of 1995. Approximately $2,266,000 of this growth occurred
since June 30, 1995. Nonaccrual loans represented .77% of net loans at September
30, 1995 versus 1.42% at year-end 1994. The net loans to deposits ratio was
66.93% at September 30, 1995 compared to 64.29% at June 30, 1995 and 62.25% at
December 31, 1994. During the first
4
<PAGE>
nine months of 1994, net loans grew $18,373,084 or 16.06%. Though loan demand
has softened from 1994 levels, management anticipates continued loan growth
during the remainder of 1995.
The allowance for loan losses was 2.08% of net loans at September 30,
1995 compared to 2.11% of net loans a year ago. Net charge-offs were $725,940,
up $154,940 from the net charge-offs at September 30, 1994.
Gross premises and equipment increased $414,895 during the first three
quarters of 1995 due primarily to the preparatory work and equipment costs
involved with the installation of automatic teller machines at the Alachua and
Gainesville offices of SEBF and the Prime Retail outlet mall in Darien;
renovation of the Kingsland office; renovation of the drive-in at Eulonia; and
partial payment on a new computer software system. All of these improvements
will enable us to better serve our customers. During the same period in 1994,
gross premises and equipment increased $690,894 due mainly to the purchase of
proof equipment for the centralized proof center now operating at SEB's main
office in Darien.
Other assets declined $241,438 or 4.34% since year-end 1994. The
substantial decline in deferred taxes on the unrealized gains and losses on
available-for-sale securities was largely offset by increases in foreclosed real
estate, accrued interest receivable on loans, and deferred income tax benefits
related to the allowance for loan losses.
LIQUIDITY
The purpose of liquidity management is to ensure sufficient cash flow
to satisfy demands for credit, deposit withdrawals, and other corporate needs.
The Company meets most of its daily liquidity needs through the management of
cash and federal funds sold. Additional short and long-term liquidity is
provided by payments and maturities of the loan and investment securities
portfolios. The Company's classification of investment securities for market
purposes also enables the Company to meet liquidity and other needs prior to
asset maturity when necessary.
Deposits declined $4,647,204 or 1.85% at September 30, 1995 compared to
year-end 1994. The loss of several political subdivision accounts accounted for
most of this decline. At quarter-end, interest bearing deposits represented
81.32% of total deposits compared to 80.79% at year-end 1994. Approximately
$212,458,000 and $33,925,000 of total deposits were attributable to SEB and
SEBF, respectively. During the first nine months of 1994, deposits grew
$7,484,278 or 3.68%. In addition to deposits and the other liquidity sources
mentioned above, the Company has also made arrangements with correspondent banks
to handle any unusual short-term liquidity needs.
The U. S. Treasury demand note increased $2,123,043 at September 30,
1995 compared to December 31, 1994, after declining $1,642,584 during the same
period in 1994. The balance of this note fluctuates based on the amount of
payroll and income taxes deposited by commercial customers and the cash needs of
the U. S. Treasury.
During the first nine months of 1995, the Company paid $475,000 on its
note payable to bank. Principal payments of $425,000 are due annually.

INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY
The objective of interest rate sensitivity management is to minimize
the effect of interest rate changes on net interest margin while maintaining net
interest income at acceptable levels. The Company attempts to accomplish this
objective by structuring the balance sheet so that repricing opportunities exist
for both assets and liabilities in roughly equivalent amounts at approximately
the same time intervals. Imbalances in these repricing opportunities at any time
constitute interest rate sensitivity. An indicator of interest rate sensitivity
is the difference between interest rate sensitive assets and interest rate
sensitive liabilities; this difference is known as the interest rate sensitivity
gap.
The Company's interest rate sensitivity position at September 30, 1995
is set forth in the table below:

amortized cost. Additionally, distribution of maturities for mortgage-backed
securities is based on expected final maturities which may be different from the
contractual terms.
</FN>
</TABLE>
At September 30, 1995, the gap analysis indicates a negative cumulative
gap position through the one year time interval of $(2,618,000). A negative gap
position indicates that the Company's rate sensitive liabilities will reprice
faster than its rate sensitive assets, with 74% of rate sensitive liabilities
and 49% of rate sensitive assets repricing within one year. As a percent of
total assets, the Company's cumulative gap for the one year time interval has
narrowed to (.89%) from (2.23%) a year ago.
The interest rate sensitivity table presumes that all loans and
securities* will perform according to their contractual maturities when, in many
cases, actual loan terms are much shorter than the original terms and securities
are subject to early redemption. In addition, the table does not necessarily
indicate the impact of general interest rate movements on net interest margin
since the repricing of various categories of assets and liabilities is subject
to competitive pressures and customer needs. The Company monitors and adjusts
its exposure to interest rate risks within specific policy guidelines based on
its view of current and expected market conditions.

<PAGE>
CAPITAL RESOURCES
Realized stockholders' equity increased 9.39% during the first nine
months of 1995, an increase in book value from $22.87 to $25.02 per share. Our
investment securities classified as available for sale appreciated in value at
September 30, 1995 compared to December 31, 1994, resulting in a $1,640,758
increase in unrealized stockholders' equity; this appreciation resulted from a
decline in market interest rates since year-end 1994. Consistent with our
objectives, the Company maintains capital ratios well above regulatory
requirements. Our capital ratios for the most recent periods are presented in
the table below.
Capital adequacy is measured with a framework that makes capital
requirements sensitive to the risk profiles of individual banking companies.
Regulatory guidelines define capital as either Tier 1 (primarily stockholders'
equity) or Tier 2 (certain debt instruments and a portion of the allowance for
loan losses). The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to a minimum Tier 1
capital to risk-weighted assets ratio of 4% and a total capital (Tier 1 plus
Tier 2) to risk-weighted assets ratio of 8%. Additionally, the Company is
subject to a Tier 1 leverage ratio that measures the ratio of Tier 1 capital to
average quarterly assets. In December 1994, the regulatory agencies issued a
final rule prohibiting banks and bank holding companies from including
unrecognized gains and losses on investment securities in calculating risk-based
capital.
The regulatory agencies have defined "well-capitalized" institutions as
those whose capital ratios equal or exceed the following ratios: Tier 1 capital
ratio of 6%, total risk-based capital of 10%, and Tier 1 leverage ratio of 5%.
At September 30, 1995, the Company's Tier 1 capital, total risk-based capital,
and Tier 1 leverage ratios were 16.08%, 17.34%, and 9.42%. The Company's ratios
declined at September 30, 1995 and December 31, 1994 compared to September 30,
1994 and December 31, 1993 due to the increase in assets that resulted from our
cash purchase of SEBF.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
NET INTEREST INCOME
Interest income increased $1,336,895 or 27.44% during the third quarter
of 1995 compared to the third quarter of 1994. For the nine month period,
interest income increased $4,176,397 or 29.58%. The loan portfolio remained the
primary factor in the interest income improvement. For the first nine months of
1995, interest and fees on loans were up $3,612,816 or 35.95%. SEBF, whose
operating results have been included in the consolidated financial statements
from the date of acquisition forward, added $1,672,350 in interest and fees on
loans during the first three quarters of 1995. The remaining increase in
interest and fees on loans results from higher average balances and yields at
SEB: The yield on loans was 11.87% at September 30, 1995, up 82 basis points
from September 30, 1994. For the first nine months of 1994, interest and fees on
loans were up $941,027 or 10.33% from 1993; a 12.09% increase in average
balances was the primary factor in the prior year results.

When compared to the results for the first nine months of 1994,
interest income on investment securities increased $282,887 or 7.19% during the
first three quarters of 1995. SEBF accounted for all of the increase, because
SEB's interest earnings on investments declined $159,036 or 4.04%. The SEB
decline was attributable to an 8.31% drop in average balances. The yield on
taxable investments was 5.86% at September 30, 1995 compared to 5.80% at June
30, 1995 and 5.46% at September 30, 1994. The taxable-equivalent yield on
tax-free investments was 9.25% at September 30, 1995 compared to 9.48% at
September 30, 1994. Interest income on investment securities declined $171,164
or 12.08% during the third quarter of 1994 compared to 1993.
After giving effect to the increase in interest income on federal funds
sold attributable to SEBF, interest income on federal funds sold increased
$175,681 during the first nine months of 1995. The current period increase was
marked by higher average balances and rates at SEB. The yield on federal funds
sold for the nine month period was 5.88%, up 218 basis points from 1994.
Interest income on federal funds sold declined a mere $4,542 or 3.26% during the
first nine months of 1994 compared to 1993.
Interest expense on deposits increased $759,560 or 44.29% during the
third quarter of 1995 compared to the third quarter of 1994. For the nine month
period, interest expense on deposits increased $2,089,405 or 41.19%.
Approximately 47% of the increase was attributable to SEBF; the remaining 53%
increase was attributable to higher average deposit balances and higher rates on
deposits at SEB. For the nine months of 1995, the average interest paid on
deposits was 4.70%, up 85 basis points from 1994 levels. During the first nine
months of 1995, the average interest paid on the term loan was 7.93%. The change
in interest expense for the first nine months of 1994 was insignificant.
The increase in interest income for the first nine months of 1995
exceeded the increase in interest expense, producing a $1,858,914 or 20.62%
increase in net interest income. Approximately 66% and 34% of this increase was
attributable to SEBF and SEB, respectively. Net interest income increased
$597,370 or 7.10% during the same period in 1994.
The provision for loan losses for the quarter and nine months ended
September 30, 1995 was $300,000 and $900,000, unchanged from the provision at
September 30, 1994.
OTHER INCOME
After giving effect to the increase in noninterest income attributable
to SEBF, noninterest income grew $110,552 or 5.17% during the first nine months
of 1995 compared to the same period in 1994. The current period improvement
resulted from increases in service charges on deposit accounts and commissions
from the sale of credit life insurance; these increases offset declines in book
gains on sales of other real estate owned and realized losses on sales of
investment securities. Various investment securities were sold during these
first nine months to enable the Company to maintain its liquidity position and
to increase the overall rates of return of the investment portfolio. Other
income declined $170,332 or 7.38% during the first three quarters of 1994. After
giving effect to the 1993 increase in other income resulting from the favorable
settlement of a lawsuit, the decline in other income at September 30, 1994
resulted primarily from declines in book gains on sales of other real estate
owned.
OTHER EXPENSE
Salaries and employee benefits were up $839,654 or 23.17% at September
30, 1995 compared to 1994. Approximately $580,000 or 69% of the nine month
increase was attributable to SEBF; increased benefit accruals at SEB accounted
for the remaining 31% increase. For the quarter and nine months ended September
30, 1994, the change in salaries and employee benefits was less than 1.5%.
When compared to the results for the first nine months of 1994, net
occupancy and equipment expense was up $277,003 or 26.55% at September 30, 1995.
SEBF accounted for virtually all of the current increase in net

occupancy and equipment expense. During the same period last year, net occupancy
and equipment expense declined $27,793 or 2.59%. Other operating expense
increased $111,361 or 5.27% during the nine months ended September 30, 1995
compared to September 30, 1994. The $412,580 increase attributable to SEBF was
largely offset by declines in legal and accounting fees and the effective
reduction in SEB's FDIC assessment fees due to the recapitalization refunds
received on assessments paid during the second and third quarters of 1995.
During the first nine months of 1994, other operating expense was up $152,356 or
7.77% due largely to legal and accounting fees associated with pending
acquisitions.
Income tax expense increased $176,215 or 58.28% during the third
quarter of 1995 compared to 1994. Income tax expense for the first nine months
of 1995 was up $489,278 or 58.41% over the same period in 1994 which was up
22.20% over 1993. Net income in the second quarter of 1995 totaled $1,107,314 or
$0.93 per share, up 20.04% over the same period in 1994. For the nine months
ended September 30, 1995, net income totaled $3,170,795 or $2.66 per share, up
$535,978 or 20.34% over the same period in 1994 which was down $45,443 or 1.70%
from 1993. The return on beginning equity for the nine month period was 15.49%,
up from the 14.27% return at September 30, 1994.
