Notes to Interim Consolidated Financial Statements
NOTE 1 - General
This report includes interim consolidated financial statements of United
Bancorporation of Alabama, Inc. (the "Corporation") and wholly-owned subsidiary
United Bank (the "Bank"). In the opinion of management, all adjustments
necessary to present fairly the financial position, the results of operations
and comprehensive income and the statement of cash flows for the interim periods
have been made. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The
results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results of
operations for the full year or any other interim periods. For further
information, refer to the consolidated financial statements included in the
Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999.
NOTE 2 - New Accounting Pronouncements
In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities", SFAS 133 establishes accounting and reporting standards
for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in
other contracts, and for hedging activities. It requires that an entity
recognizes all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the statement of
financial position and measure those instruments at fair value. SFAS 133, as
amended, is effective for financial statements for the first quarter of fiscal
years beginning after June 15, 2000. Management is evaluating the impact, if
any, of SFAS 133 on the financial statements of the Corporation.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
Results of Operations
The following financial review is presented to provide an analysis of the
results of operations of United Bancorporation of Alabama, Inc. (the
"Corporation"), and its subsidiary for the six months ended June 30, 2000, and
1999, compared. This review should be used in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements included in the Form 10-Q.
Six Months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, Compared
Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2000, increased $53,942, or 6.30%,
as compared to the same period in 1999.
Total interest income increased $928,469, or 12.40%, in 2000. Average
interest-earning assets were $205,667,184 for the first six months 2000, as
compared to $186,287,279 for the same period in 1999, an increase of
$19,379,905, or 10.40%. The average rate earned in 2000 was 8.36% as compared to
8.11% in 1999, reflecting the rising interest rate environment during 2000.
Thus, the increase in total interest income in 2000 is attributed to the
increase in earning assets and rising interest rates. Net interest margin
decreased to 4.38% for the first six months of 2000 as compared to 4.49% for the
same period in 1999. This decrease was caused by the increasing cost of deposits
during the year.
Total interest expense increased by $660,201, or 19.74%, in 2000, when compared
to the same period in 1999. This rise in interest expense can be attributed to
both the increase in deposits and the rise in interest rates. Average interest
bearing liabilities increased to $168,128,009 in 2000 from $153,829,755 in 1999,
an increase of $14,298,254, or 9.29%. The average rate paid rose to 4.79% in
2000, as compared to 4.38% in 1999.
The provision for loan losses decreased to $235,000 for the first six months of
2000 as compared to $298,000 for the same period in 1999. This decrease is due
to the slower loan growth in the first six months of 2000 as compared to 1999.
The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level which, in management's
opinion, is appropriate to provide for estimated losses in the portfolio at the
balance sheet date. Factors considered in determining the adequacy of the
allowance include historical loan loss experience, the amount of past due loans,
loans classified from the most recent regulatory examinations and internal
reviews, general economic conditions and the current portfolio mix. The amount
charged to operating expenses is that amount necessary to maintain the allowance
for loan losses at a level indicative of the associated risk, as determined by
management, of the current portfolio.
7
<PAGE> 8
The allowance for loan losses consists of two portions: the classified portion
and the nonclassified portion. The classified portion is based on identified
problem loans and is calculated based on an assessment of credit risk related to
those loans. Specific loss estimate amounts are included in the allowance based
on assigned loan classifications as follows: substandard (10%), doubtful (50%),
and loss (100%).
The nonclassified portion of the allowance is for inherent losses which probably
exist as of the evaluation date even though they may not have been identified by
the more specific processes for the classified portion of the allowance. This is
due to the risk of error and inherent imprecision in the process. This portion
of the allowance is particularly subjective and requires judgments based upon
qualitative factors which do not lend themselves to exact mathematical
calculations. Some of the factors considered are changes in credit
concentrations, loan mix, historical loss experience, and general economic
environment in the Corporation's markets.
While the total allowance is described as consisting of a classified and a
nonclassified portion, these terms are primarily used to describe a process.
Both portions are available to support inherent losses in the loan portfolio.
Management realizes that general economic trends greatly affect loan losses, and
no assurances can be made that future charges to the allowance for loan losses
will not be significant in relation to the amount provided during a particular
period, or that future evaluations of the loan portfolio based on conditions
then prevailing will not require sizable charges to income. Management does,
however, consider the allowance for loan losses to be appropriate for the
reported periods.
Net charged-off loans for the first six months of 2000 were $115,159, as
compared to $116,304 for the same period in 1999.
The allowance for possible loan losses represents 1.35% of gross loans at June
30, 2000, as compared to 1.36% at year-end 1999. Loans on which the accrual of
interest had been discontinued has risen to $847,463 at June 30, 2000, as
compared to $673,522 at December 31, 1999. The increase is primarily due to a
loan that has been placed on nonaccural status but is fully collateralized.
Total noninterest income increased $14,576 or 1.94%, for the first six months of
2000. When noninterest income is adjusted for the gain on sale of investments,
$31,907 in 1999, the increase is $46,483 or 6.46%. Service charges on deposits
increased $47,675, or 9.01%, for the first six months. Commissions on credit
life decreased $4,932 in 2000, or 18.66%. Other income increased during the
first six months of 2000 by $3,740 or 2.27%.
Total noninterest expense increased $252,628, or 7.31%, during the first six
months of 2000. Salaries and benefits decreased $30,230 or 1.53%, in the first
six months of 2000. The decrease in salaries results from the combination of a
$84,940 decrease in stock compensation which was offset by normal compensation
increases of approximately $55,000. Occupancy expense increased $164,599 or
35.06% in the first six months of 2000. This increase in cost is due to the
opening of a new banking facility in Lillian in the latter part on 1999 and an
upgrade to communications throughout the bank. Other expenses increased
$118,259, or 11.73%, during the first six months of 2000.

<PAGE> 9
Earnings before taxes for the first six months of 2000 increased $93,216, or
8.18%, over the same period in 1999. Income tax expense increased $39,274, or
13.84%, for the first six months of 2000.
Three Months Ended June 30, 2000, and 1999, Compared
Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2000 increased $32,733, or 7.80%.
Earnings per share remained at $0.41 for the three months ended June 30, 2000.
Total interest income increased $435,962 or 11.48% for the second quarter of
2000. Average interest earning assets increased to $202,868,359 in 2000, from
$187,940,436 in 1999, an increase of $14,927,923, or 7.94%. Interest and fees on
loans increased $255,726, or 8.83%, in 2000. The average rate earned on interest
earning assets during the second quarter of 2000 was 8.39%, as compared to 8.10%
for the same period in 1999. Therefore, the increase in interest earned is due
to the increase in earning assets, and also by an increase in interest rates.
The net interest margin decreased to 4.37% for the second quarter of 2000, as
compared to 4.50% for the same period in 1999.
Total interest expense increased by $341,254, or 20.19%, for the second quarter
of 2000. Average interest-bearing liabilities for the second quarter of 2000
were $166,779,318 as compared to $154,650,001 for the same period in 1999, an
increase of $12,129,317, or 7.84%. During this same period cost of interest
bearing liabilities increased from 4.41% in 1999 to 4.90% in 2000.
The provision for loan losses increased to $120,000 for the second quarter of
2000 as compared to $99,000 for the same period in 1999. Net charge offs for the
second quarter of 2000 were $66,712 as compared to $64,705 net charge offs for
the same period in 1999.
Total noninterest income increased $18,693, or 5.15%, for the second quarter of
2000. Service charges on deposits increased $22,659, or 8.52%, in 2000.
Commissions on credit life insurance decreased $1,604, or 15.80%, for the second
quarter of 2000. Other income increased during the second quarter of 2000 by
$7,520, or 9.78%.
Total noninterest expense increased $43,647, or 2.42%, during the second quarter
of 2000. Salaries and benefits decreased $100,944, or 9.54%, in 2000. The
decrease is primarily attributable to a $96,600 decrease in stock compensation
expense, due to stock options vesting immediately upon approval of the
corporation stock compensation plan at the May 1999 stockholders' meeting plan.
Occupancy expense increased $76,357, or
9
<PAGE> 10
29.68%, in 2000. The occupancy expense increase is due to the opening of a new
building in Lillian. Other expenses increased $68,234 during the second quarter
of 2000.
Earnings before taxes for the second quarter of 2000 increased by $48,754, or
8.65%. Income taxes increased $16,021, or 11.12%, in the second quarter of 2000.
Financial Condition and Liquidity
Total assets on June 30, 2000, decreased $4,882,752, or 2.20% from December 31,
1999. This decrease is due to a local county tax authority distributing taxes to
individual municipalities. Average total assets for the first six months of 2000
were $216,172,633. The loan (net of allowance) to deposit ratio on June 30,
2000, excluding bankers acceptances and commercial paper, was 75.27% as compared
to 67.52% on December 31, 1999.
Fed Funds Sold decreased $21,930,000, or 96.84%, as of June 30, 2000. This
decrease is due to a local county tax authority distributing taxes to individual
municipalities causing deposits and cash to decrease. The investment securities
available for sale increased $8,699,869, or 20.25%, at June 30, 2000. The
investment securities held to maturity decreased $296,573, or 1.90%. Loans
increased $10,178,333, primarily as he result of new commercial real estate
loans in the Baldwin county market.
Non-performing Assets: The following table sets forth the Corporation's
non-performing assets at June 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999. Under the
Corporation's nonaccrual policy, a loan is placed on nonaccrual status when
collectibility of principal and interest is in doubt or when principal and
interest is 90 days or more past due.

The increase in loans, the terms of which have been renegotiated to provide a
reduction or deferral of interest or principal because of a deterioration in the
financial position of the borrower increased primarily because of one loan
restructured in bankruptcy court.
The decrease in other non-performing assets was due to the sale of repossessed
assets.
Total deposits decreased $6,108,515, or 3.33%, at June 30, 2000. Noninterest
bearing deposits increased $58,109 at June 30, 2000. Interest bearing deposits
decreased $6,166,624, or 4.00%, at June 30, 2000.
The Corporation relies primarily on internally generated capital growth to
maintain capital adequacy. Total stockholders' equity on June 30, 2000, was
$18,519,360, an increase of $872,697, or 4.95%. This increase is primarily due
to earnings, together with the unrecognized holding gains, and the sale of
stock, less dividends declared.
Primary capital to total assets at June 30, 2000, was 8.53%, as compared to
7.95% at year-end 1999. Total capital and allowances for loan losses to total
assets at June 30, 2000, was 9.35%, as compared to 8.70% at December 31, 1999.
The Corporation's risk based capital was $21,008,000, or 14.81%, at June 30,
2000, as compared to $20,131,000, or 14.96%, at year end 1999 compared to the
minimum requirement of 8.00%. Based on management's projection, internal
generated capital should be sufficient to satisfy capital requirements in the
foreseeable future for existing operations, but the continual growth into new
markets may require the Bank to access external funding sources. There can be no
assurance that such funding source will be available to the Corporation.
Market Risk Disclosures
Market risk is the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and rates.
The Bank's market risk arises principally from interest rate risk inherent in
its lending, deposit and borrowing activities. Management actively monitors and
manages its interest rate risk exposure. Although the Bank manages other risk,
such as credit quality and liquidity risk, in the normal course of business,
management considers interest rate risk to be its most significant market risk.
Interest rate risk could potentially have the largest material effect on the
Bank's financial condition and
11
<PAGE> 12
results of operations. Other types of market risks, such as foreign currency
exchange rate risk and commodity price risk, do not arise in the Bank's normal
course of business activities.
The Bank's profitability is affected by fluctuations in interest rates.
Management's goal is to maintain a reasonable balance between exposure to
interest rate fluctuations and earnings. A sudden and substantial increase in
interest rates may adversely impact the Bank's earnings to the extent that the
interest rates on interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities do
not change at the same speed, to the same extent or on the same basis.
The Bank's Asset Liability Management Committee ("ALCO") monitors and considers
methods of managing the rate and sensitivity repricing characteristics of the
balance sheet components consistent with maintaining acceptable levels of
changes in the net portfolio value ("NPV") and net interest income. NPV
represents the market values of portfolio equity and is equal to the market
value of assets minus the market value of liabilities, with adjustments made for
off- balance sheet items over a range of assumed changes in market interest
rates. A primary purpose of the Bank's ALCO is to manage interest rate risk to
effectively invest the Bank's capital and to preserve the value created by its
core business operations. As such, certain management monitoring processes are
designed to minimize the impact of sudden and sustained changes in interest
rates on NPV and net interest income.
The Bank's exposure to interest rate risk is reviewed on a quarterly basis by
the Board of Directors and the ALCO. Interest rate risk exposure is measured
using interest rate sensitivity analysis to determine the Bank's change in NPV
in the event of hypothetical changes in interest rates. Further, interest rate
sensitivity gap analysis is used to determine the repricing characteristics of
the Bank's assets and liabilities. The ALCO is charged with the responsibility
to maintain the level of sensitivity of the Bank's net interest margin within
Board approved limits.
Interest rate sensitivity analysis is used to measure the Bank's interest rate
risk by computing estimated changes in NPV of its cash flows from assets,
liabilities, and off-balance sheet items in the event of a range of assumed
changes in market interest rates. This analysis assesses the risk of loss in
market risk sensitive instruments in the event of a sudden and sustained 100 -
300 basis points increase or decrease in the market interest rates. The Bank
uses the Sendero Model Level II, which takes the current rate structure of the
portfolio and shocks for each rate level and calculates the new market value
equity at each level. The Bank's Board of Directors has adopted an interest rate
risk policy, which establishes maximum allowable decreases in net interest
margin in the event of a sudden and sustained increase or decrease in market
interest rates. The following table presents the Bank's projected change in NPV
for the various rate shock levels as of June 30, 2000. All market risk sensitive
instruments presented in this table are held to maturity or available for sale.
The Bank has no trading securities.

The preceding table indicates that at June 30, 2000, in the event of a sudden
and sustained increase in prevailing market interest rates, the Bank's NPV would
be expected to decrease, and that in the event of a sudden decrease in
prevailing market interest rates, the Bank's NPV would be expected to increase.
