HABERSHAM BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation

The condensed financial statements contained in this report are unaudited but
reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring accruals, which
are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the
results of the interim periods reflected. Certain information and footnote
disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted
pursuant to applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission. The results of operations for the interim periods reported herein
are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year.

The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein should be read
in conjunction with the Company's 1996 financial statements and notes thereto,
included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 1996.

Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior periods in order to
conform to classifications adopted in the current period.


2. Accounting Policies

Reference is made to the accounting policies of the Company described in the
notes to consolidated financial statements contained in the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1996. The Company
has consistently followed those policies in preparing this report.

3. Statement No. 128 "Earnings Per Share"

In February 1997, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" (Statement 128). Statement 128 supersedes
Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 15 "Earnings Per Share" and specifies
the computation, presentation, and disclosure requirements for earnings per
share (EPS) for entities with publicly held common stock or potential common
stock. Statement 128 replaces the presentation of primary EPS with a
presentation of basic EPS and fully diluted EPS with diluted EPS. It also
requires dual presentation of basic and diluted EPS on the face of the income
statement for all entities with complex capital structures and requires a
reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic EPS computation to
the numerator and denominator of the diluted EPS computation. Statement 128 is
effective for financial statements for both interim and annual periods ending
after December 15, 1997. The expected impact on the Company's financial
statements of the provisions of Statement 128 is not expected to be material.
<PAGE>   7
4. Derivatives Disclosures

In January 1997, the Securities and Exchange Commission approved rule amendments
(the Release) regarding disclosures about derivative financial instruments,
other financial instruments and derivative commodity instruments. The Release
requires inclusion in the footnotes to the financial statements of extensive
detail about the accounting policies followed by a registrant in connection with
its accounting for derivative financial instruments and derivative commodity
instruments. The accounting policy requirements become effective for all
registrants for filings that include financial statements for periods ending
after June 15, 1997. The Company does not presently have any derivative
financial instruments or derivative commodity instruments as defined in the
Release.

5. Recent Business Acquisition

Effective March 31, 1997, Advantage Insurers, Inc., a newly formed subsidiary of
Habersham Bank, acquired substantially all of the assets of Dillard-Scruggs
Insurance Services of Cornelia, Inc. d/b/a Cornelia Insurance Agency. Advantage
Insurers, Inc. will continue to offer a full line of property, casualty and life
insurance products. This acquisition was accounted for as a purchase with a
purchase price of $380,000. The pro forma effect on earnings is not significant.

During the third quarter of 1997, Habersham Bancorp expanded its
mortgage-related services with the acquisition by BancMortgage Financial Corp (a
subsidiary of Habersham Bank) of the assets and certain liabilities of The
Prestwick Mortgage Group, a national investment banking and advisory firm
specializing in the brokerage and evaluation of mortgage-related assets such as
loans, servicing and companies. As a result of the acquisition, BancMortgage
Financial Corp is doing business as The Prestwick Financial Group and as
BancFinancial Services Corporation ("BancFinancial"), a full-service wholesale
mortgage lender specializing in sub-prime mortgage loans. Initially,
BancFinancial plans to purchase loans in the mid-atlantic and southeastern
states. Both of these operating divisions are based in McLean, Virginia. The pro
forma effect on earnings is not significant.

See Note 5 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
<PAGE>   8
The Advantage Group, Inc., Appalachian and Advantage Insurers do not comprise a
significant portion of the financial position, results of operations or cash
flows of the Company for the quarter ended September 30, 1997. Management's
discussion and analysis, which follows, relates primarily to Habersham Bank,
Security Bank and BancMortgage.

Material Changes in Financial Condition

         The Company's total assets increased approximately $17 million during
the first nine months of 1997 primarily due to increases in net loans of
approximately $22 million and increases in other assets of approximately $2
million offset by decreases in investment securities of approximately $7
million. Net new loan originations for the first nine months of 1997 were
approximately $207 million offset by sales of mortgage loans of approximately
$185 million. Deposits and other liabilities increased approximately $17 and $5
million, respectively during the first nine months of 1997. Repayments of
borrowings at the Federal Home Loan Bank totaled approximately $6 million.

         At September 30, 1997, loans over 90 days past due and nonaccrual loans
totaled $2,285,003 or 1.09% of gross outstanding loans, as compared to
$1,358,801 or .65% of gross outstanding loans at December 31, 1996. This
increase is primarily due to an increase in nonaccrual loans of approximately
$790,000 consisting primarily of credits secured by real estate. These loans are
collateralized by real estate with appraised values in excess of loan value. The
balance of the allowance for loan losses is in accordance with the internal
calculation of the allowance for loan losses and accounts for factors such as
classified and past due loans as well as portfolio growth and diversification.
There were no significant writeoffs during the first nine months of 1997.

         The Company had impaired loans of $1,771,721 and $981,801 as of
September 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996, respectively. Impaired loans consist
of loans in nonaccrual status and are discussed in the paragraph above. No
allowance was necessary for such loans. The interest income recognized on such
loans for the nine month periods ended September 30, 1997 and 1996 was not
material.

         The Company's other real estate totaled $1,928,319 and $2,403,734 as of
September 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996, respectively. This decrease is due to
sales of property of approximately $683,000 offset by additions to other real
estate of approximately $229,000.

Material Changes in Results of Operations

         Total interest income for the third quarter of 1997 increased $416,000
or 6.79%, when compared to the third quarter of 1996. Total interest income for
the first nine months of 1997 increased $2,528,000 or 15.39%, when compared to
the first nine months of 1996. Interest income from loans for the third quarter
of 1997 increased $493,000 or 9.32%, when compared to the third quarter of 1996
due to the addition of approximately $465,000 of income from loans at
BancMortgage as well as increases in the loan portfolios of Habersham Bank and
Security Bank. Interest income from loans for the first nine months of 1997
increased approximately $2,888,000 or 21.11%, when compared to the first nine
months of 1996 due to the addition of approximately $1,013,000 in income from
loans at BancMortgage as well as increases in the loan portfolios of Habersham
Bank and Security Bank. Loan yields decreased by .30% to 9.53% for the first
nine months of 1997 compared to yields of 9.83% for the first nine months of
1996, due to changes in the composition of loans.

         Interest income from investment securities decreased $132,000 or 17.69%
for the third quarter of 1997 when compared to the third quarter of 1996.
Interest income from investment securities decreased $545,000 or 22.94% for the
first nine months of 1997, when compared to the first nine months of 1996. The
decrease in interest income from investments was primarily due to the decrease
in Habersham Bank's investment securities portfolio as a result of the maturity
and sale of securities used in funding the lending activities relating to
BancMortgage. Average yields on investment securities increased .32% to 6.28%
for the first nine months of 1997 compared to 5.96% for the first nine months of
1996.
<PAGE>   9
         Total interest expense for the third quarter of 1997 increased $408,000
or 13.72%, when compared to the third quarter of 1996. Total interest expense
for the first nine months of 1997 increased $2,045,000 or 26.63% when compared
to the first nine months of 1996. Interest expense on deposits for the third
quarter increased $400,000 or 16.49%, when compared to the third quarter of
1996. Interest expense on deposits for the first nine months increased
$1,200,000 or 17.38%, when compared to the first nine months of 1996. The
increase in interest expense on deposit accounts was primarily due to the
addition of approximately $13 million of interest bearing deposits during the
first nine months of 1997. Consolidated weighted average rates on deposits
decreased to 5.16% during the first nine months of 1997 compared to a weighted
average rate on deposits of 5.76% during the first nine months of 1996.

         Other interest expense for the third quarter of 1997 increased $8,000
or 1.46% when compared to the third quarter of 1996. Other interest expense for
the first nine months of 1997 increased $845,000 or 109.17%, when compared to
the first nine months of 1996. This increase reflects the increased borrowing at
the Federal Home Loan Bank and repurchase agreements with Compass Bank to fund
BancMortgage's lending activities.

         Net interest income for the third quarter of 1997 increased
approximately $8,000 or .25%, when compared to the third quarter of 1996. Net
interest income for the first nine months of 1997 increased approximately
$483,000 or 5.52%, when compared to the first nine months of 1996. These
increases were the result of the items discussed above.

         The net interest margin of the Company, the net interest income divided
by average earning assets, was 4.35% for the first nine months of 1997 as
compared to 4.91% for the first nine months of 1996. By careful management of
deposit and loan growth and pricing, the Company maintains its net interest
margin.

         Other income increased $1,825,000 or 304.67% for the third quarter of
1997 over the same period in 1996. Other income increased $4,843,000 or 312.05%
for the first nine months of 1997 over the same period in 1996. These increases
were due to the addition of approximately $2,413,000 of gains on sale of loans
during the first nine months of 1997 as well as increases during that period in
loan fees of approximately $1,436,000, increases in service charges on deposits
of approximately $9,000, the addition of approximately $753,000 of revenue from
Appalachian Travel Service, Inc., which was acquired during the third quarter of
1996, and the addition of approximately $55,000 of revenue from Advantage
Insurers, Inc., which was acquired at the beginning of second quarter of 1997.

         Other expenses increased $1,618,000 or 50.67% for the third quarter of
1997 over the same period in 1996. Other expenses increased $4,553,000 or
53.93% for the first nine months of 1997 over the same period in 1996. These in
creases were due to increased salary and employee benefits of approximately
$1,670,000 or 136.33% for the third quarter of 1997 when compared to the third
quarter of 1996 and $3,350,000 or 80.98% for the first nine months of 1997 when
compared to the first nine months of 1996. These increases are associated with
fully staffing BancMortgage operations at four locations and the addition of
Appalachian Travel Service, Inc. and Advantage Insurers, Inc., as well as
personnel additions at Habersham Bank, Security State Bank and the Company.
Overhead expenses, computer and other Appalachian Travel Service, Inc. expenses
increased $253,000, $68,000 and $142,000, respectively, for the third quarter
of 1997 when compared to the third quarter of 1996. Overhead expenses, computer
and Appalachian Travel Service, Inc. expenses increased $618,000, $136,000 and
$685,000, respectively, for the first nine months of 1997 when compared to the
first nine months of 1996 due to the activities of BancMortgage, Appalachian
Travel Service, and Advantage Insurers, Inc.
<PAGE>   10
Liquidity and Capital Resources

         Habersham Bank's liquidity policy requires that the ratio of cash and
certain short-term investments to net withdrawable deposit accounts be at least
20% and Security Bank's liquidity policy requires a minimum of 25%. The
following table lists the liquidity ratios for the Banks at September 30, 1997.

<TABLE>
                  <S>                   <C>
                  Habersham Bank        25.05%
                  Security Bank         16.90%
</TABLE>

         Management believes that Security Bank's liquidity will be within
policy levels within the fourth quarter, due to expected loan fundings in the
fourth quarter, but is prepared to borrow under current relationships with the
Federal Home Loan Bank, if necessary, to bring liquidity into policy ranges.

         Habersham Bank has established various sources of funds to be used in
the management of its liquidity position. Federal Funds agreement guidelines
totaling $9.5 million have been provided by Compass Bank and The Bankers Bank.
Repurchase agreement guidelines are collateral based. Also established is a
borrowing arrangement for advances with an available credit line of $65 million
at the Federal Home Loan Bank. Security Bank has also established various
sources of funds to be used in the management of its liquidity position. Federal
Funds agreement guidelines totaling $2.3 million have been provided by Compass
Bank and The Bankers Bank for Security Bank.

         At September 30, 1997, Habersham Bank and Security Bank were required
to have minimum Tier 1 and total capital ratios of 4% and 8%, respectively.
Additionally, the Banks are required to maintain a leverage ratio (Tier 1
Capital to average assets) of at least 4%. The Banks' ratios at September 30,
1997 follow:

</TABLE>

         Capital expenditures for the construction of new branches for Habersham
Bank in Cleveland, Georgia and Security Bank in Waleska, Georgia totaled
approximately $1,100,000 and $700,000, respectively, for the first nine months
of 1997. While management believes that the current level of internal capital is
sufficient for current and foreseeable needs of the Company, capital needs are
continually evaluated by management.

Interest Rate Sensitivity

         The objective of asset and liability management is to measure and
manage both the level and volatility of earnings and capital based upon the
impact of changes in interest rates. Habersham Bank and Security Bank uses
interest rate shock tests as well as traditional asset / liability modeling in
order to maintain an optimum match of maturities and interest rate sensitivity
between loans, investment securities and deposits.
<PAGE>   11
         The interest rate sensitivity analysis below has a negative three month
gap of approximately $5.3 million (excess of interest bearing liabilities to
earning assets repricing within three months).
