NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Basis of Presentation
FNB Corp. is a one-bank holding company whose wholly-owned subsidiary
is the First National Bank and Trust Company (the "Bank"). The Bank is
an independent community bank that offers a complete line of financial
services, including deposit, loan, investment and trust services, to
individual and business customers primarily in the region of North
Carolina that includes Chatham, Montgomery, Moore, Randolph, Richmond
and Scotland counties.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements, prepared without
audit, include the accounts of FNB Corp. and the Bank (collectively,
the "Corporation"). All significant intercompany balances and
transactions have been eliminated. The results of operations of the
Corporation and its subsidiary are reviewed as a single enterprise by
the chief operating decision maker. All prior period financial
information has been restated to include historical information for a
company acquired in a transaction accounted for as a pooling of
interests, as further discussed in Note 3 below.
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting
periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
In the opinion of management, the financial information furnished in
this report includes all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring
accruals) necessary to a fair statement of the results for the periods
presented.
2. Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include
cash on hand, amounts due from banks, and federal funds sold.
Generally, federal funds are purchased and sold for one-day periods.
3. Merger Activity
On April 10, 2000, the Corporation completed a merger for the
acquisition of Carolina Fincorp, Inc. ("Carolina Fincorp"), holding
company for Richmond Savings Bank, Inc., SSB ("Richmond Savings"),
headquartered in Rockingham, North Carolina, in a transaction accounted
for as a pooling of interests. Pursuant to the terms of the merger,
each share of Carolina Fincorp common stock was converted into .79 of a
share of FNB Corp. common stock, for a total issuance of 1,478,398 FNB
Corp. shares. On June 26, 2000, Richmond Savings was merged into First
National Bank and Trust Company. At March 31, 2000, Carolina Fincorp
operated five offices through Richmond Savings and had approximately
$125,943,000 in total assets, $108,848,000 in deposits and $16,332,000
in

<PAGE>
shareholders' equity. Merger-related expenses of $2,796,000 were
recorded in the second quarter of 2000. Upon the change in control, the
Carolina Fincorp ESOP plan terminated according to its terms and
unvested MRP shares became fully vested. Included in merger-related
expenses were $385,000 of expense related to the termination of these
plans. Additionally, approximately $450,000 of the total provision for
loan losses of $835,000 in the second quarter was related to aligning
the credit risk methodologies of FNB Corp. and Carolina Fincorp.
Historical financial information included in these consolidated
financial statements has been restated to include the account balances
and results of operations of Carolina Fincorp.
Separate financial information for the pooled entities for the year
ended December 31, 1999 is as follows. Income statement information for
Carolina Fincorp is for its fiscal year ended June 30, 1999.

4. Earnings Per Share (EPS)
Basic net income per share, or basic EPS, is computed by dividing net
income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for
the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could
occur if the Corporation's dilutive stock options were exercised. The
numerator of the basic EPS computation is the same as the numerator of
the diluted EPS computation for all periods presented. A reconciliation
of the denominators of the basic and diluted EPS computations is as

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
The purpose of this discussion and analysis is to assist in the
understanding and evaluation of the financial condition, changes in financial
condition and results of operations of FNB Corp. (the "Parent Company") and its
wholly-owned subsidiary, First National Bank and Trust Company (the "Bank"),
collectively referred to as the "Corporation". This discussion should be read in
conjunction with the financial information appearing elsewhere in this report.
Overview
On April 10, 2000, the Corporation completed a merger for the
acquisition of Carolina Fincorp, Inc. ("Carolina Fincorp"), holding company for
Richmond Savings Bank, Inc., SSB ("Richmond Savings"), headquartered in
Rockingham, North Carolina, in a transaction accounted for as a pooling of
interests. Pursuant to the terms of the merger, each share of Carolina Fincorp
common stock was converted into .79 of a share of FNB Corp. common stock, for a
total issuance of 1,478,398 FNB Corp. shares. On June 26, 2000, Richmond Savings
was merged into First National Bank and Trust Company. At March 31, 2000,
Carolina Fincorp operated five offices through Richmond Savings and had
approximately $125,943,000 in total assets, $108,848,000 in deposits and
$16,332,000 in shareholders' equity. Merger-related expenses of $2,796,000 were
recorded in the second quarter of 2000. Upon the change in control, the Carolina
Fincorp ESOP plan terminated according to its terms and unvested MRP shares
became fully vested. Included in merger-related expenses were $385,000 of
expense related to the termination of these plans. Additionally, approximately
$450,000 of the total provision for loan losses of $835,000 in the second
quarter was related to aligning the credit risk methodologies of FNB Corp. and
Carolina Fincorp. Historical financial information included in the consolidated
financial statements has been restated to include the account balances and
results of operations of Carolina Fincorp.
The Corporation earned $2,050,000 in the first nine months of 2000, a
51.2% decrease from the same period in 1999. Basic earnings per share decreased
from $.83 to $.41 in comparing these nine-month periods and diluted earnings per
share decreased from $.81 to $.40. For the 2000 third quarter, earnings amounted
to $1,544,000, which represents a 13.4% increase from the 1999 third quarter and
a gain in basic earnings per share from $.27 to $.31 and in diluted earnings per
share from $.27 to $.30. Total assets were $548,135,000 at September 30, 2000,
up 8.6% from September 30, 1999 and 5.9% from December 31, 1999. Loans amounted
to $400,066,000 at September 30, 2000, increasing 19.1% from September 30, 1999
and 10.9% from December 31, 1999. Total deposits grew 9.6% from September 30,
1999 and 7.8% from December 31, 1999 to $460,503,000 at September 30, 2000.
Excluding $2,338,000 in after-tax charges associated with the merger,
which includes the $450,000 provision for loan losses discussed above, net
income for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 amounted to $4,388,000, a
4.6% increase over the same period in 1999, with basic and diluted earnings per
share amounts of $.87 and $.86, respectively. The third quarter of 2000 was not
impacted by the merger-related charges.
Earnings Review
After exclusion of after-tax, merger-related charges of $2,338,000
recorded in the second quarter of 2000 and associated with the merger with
Carolina Fincorp as discussed in the "Overview", the Corporation's net income
increased $191,000 or 4.6% in the first nine months of 2000 compared to the same
period of 1999
8
<PAGE>
and increased $183,000 or 13.4% in comparing third quarter periods. Earnings
were positively impacted in the first nine months of 2000 by increases of
$1,172,000 or 8.0% in net interest income and $267,000 in noninterest income.
These gains were significantly offset, however, by an increase of $736,000 in
noninterest expense and by an increase of $400,000 in the provision for loan
losses. The positive impact on 2000 third quarter earnings from increases of
$344,000 or 7.0% in net interest income and $62,000 in noninterest income was
partially offset by the effect of a $62,000 increase in noninterest expense and
a $76,000 increase in the provision for loan losses. Results for the first nine
months of 2000 were negatively affected by a special group medical insurance
assessment of $176,000 recorded in the second quarter, the effect of which was
only partially offset by a $76,000 gain on the sale of an investment recorded in
the same quarter.
On an annualized basis and excluding the charges associated with the
merger, return on average assets decreased from 1.16% in the first nine months
of 1999 to 1.09% in the first nine months of 2000. Return on average
shareholders' equity increased from 10.89% to 11.04% in comparing the same
periods. In comparing third quarter periods, return on average assets increased
from 1.11% to 1.14% and return on average shareholders' equity increased from
10.54% to 11.71%.
Net Interest Income
Net interest income is the difference between interest income,
principally from loans and investments, and interest expense, principally on
customer deposits. Changes in net interest income result from changes in
interest rates and in the volume, or average dollar level, and mix of earning
assets and interest-bearing liabilities.
Net interest income was $15,788,000 in the first nine months of 2000
compared to $14,616,000 in the same period of 1999. This increase of $1,172,000
or 8.0% resulted primarily from a 12.1% increase in the level of average earning
assets, the effect of which was partially offset by a decline in the net yield
on earning assets, or net interest margin, from 4.52% in the first nine months
of 1999 to 4.34% in the same period of 2000. In comparing third quarter periods,
net interest income increased $344,000 or 7.0% reflecting a 11.3% increase in
average earning assets and a decline in the net interest margin from 4.49% to
4.29%. On a taxable equivalent basis, the increases in net interest income in
the first nine months and third quarter of 2000 were $1,151,000 and $336,000,
respectively, reflecting changes in the relative mix of taxable and non-taxable
earning assets.
Table 1 on page 18 and Table 2 on page 19 set forth for the periods
indicated information with respect to the Corporation's average balances of
assets and liabilities, as well as the total dollar amounts of interest income
(taxable equivalent basis) from earning assets and interest expense on
interest-bearing liabilities, resultant rates earned or paid, net interest
income, net interest spread and net yield on earning assets. Net interest spread
refers to the difference between the average yield on earning assets and the
average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities. Net yield on earning assets,
or net interest margin, refers to net interest income divided by average earning
assets and is influenced by the level and relative mix of earning assets and
interest-bearing liabilities. Changes in net interest income on a taxable
equivalent basis, as measured by volume and rate variances, are also analyzed in
Tables 1 and 2. Volume refers to the average dollar level of earning assets and
interest-bearing liabilities.
Changes in the net interest margin and net interest spread tend to
correlate with movements in the prime rate of interest. There are variations,
however, in the degree and timing of rate changes, compared to prime, for the
different types of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities.

<PAGE>
The prime rate of interest has been relatively stable in recent years,
averaging 7.99%, 8.37% and 8.44% in 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. This
general stability has tended to apply to the interest rates both earned and paid
by the Bank. During the last three months of 1998, however, a significant change
occurred in the prime rate when the Federal Reserve took action on the level of
interest rates in response to the downturn of the economies of certain Asian and
Latin American countries and the effects or potential effects of those downturns
on the U.S. economy. In rapid succession, three 25 basis point cuts were
recorded in the prime rate, lowering it from 8.50% to 7.75%. This decrease in
the prime rate, through the effect on the average total yield on earning assets,
tended to negatively impact the Corporation's net interest margin and net
interest spread. Due to subsequent concern about inflationary pressures that
appeared to be building in the U.S. economy, the Federal Reserve elected to
raise the level of interest rates in the third and fourth quarters of 1999,
resulting in three 25 basis point increases in the prime rate that increased it
from 7.75% to 8.50%, thereby effectively reversing the rate reductions that
occurred in 1998. Continued concerns about possible inflationary pressures
caused the Federal Reserve to further raise the level of interest rates in the
first six months of 2000, resulting in two additional 25 basis point increases
and one 50 basis point increase in the prime rate that raised it to the 9.50%
level. While the Corporation has tended to see some improvement in the average
total yield on earning assets due to the prime rate increases, the average rate
paid on interest-bearing liabilities has increased by a greater amount, which
has further negatively impacted the net interest margin and interest spread.
Following the reductions in late 1998 and two subsequent increases in
the third quarter of 1999, the prime rate averaged 7.87% in the first nine
months of 1999. Those third quarter increases coupled with increases subsequent
thereto resulted in an average prime rate of 9.12% in the first nine months of
2000. The prime rate averaged 9.50% in the third quarter of 2000 compared to
8.07% in the 1999 third quarter. The net interest spread, in comparing
nine-month periods, declined by 23 basis points from 3.84% in 1999 to 3.61% in
2000, reflecting the effect of an increase in the average total yield on earning
assets that was more than offset by an increase in the average rate paid on
interest-bearing liabilities, or cost of funds. The yield on earning assets
increased by 27 basis points from 8.02% in 1999 to 8.29% in 2000, while the cost
of funds increased by 50 basis points from 4.18% to 4.68%. In comparing third
quarter periods, the net interest spread declined by 30 basis points from 3.83%
to 3.53%, as the yield on earning assets increased by 54 basis points while the
cost of funds increased by 84 basis points.
Provision for Loan Losses
This provision is the charge against earnings to provide an allowance
or reserve for probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio. The amount of
each period's charge is affected by several considerations including
management's evaluation of various risk factors in determining the adequacy of
the allowance (see "Asset Quality"), actual loan loss experience and loan
portfolio growth. Earnings were negatively impacted in 2000 by provisions of
$1,152,000 for the first nine months, $835,000 for the second quarter and
$160,000 for the third quarter compared to 1999 provisions of $302,000, $119,000
and $84,000, respectively. Approximately $450,000 of the provision for the
second quarter of 2000 was merger related as discussed below, while the
remainder resulted from additional loan writedowns and charge-offs taken in the
same quarter as completion of the merger transaction.
The allowance for loan losses, as a percentage of loans outstanding and
reflecting the restatement of historical information for the merger, amounted to
1.04% at September 30, 2000, 0.92% at September 30, 1999 and 0.91% at December
31, 1999. On a pre-merger basis, the allowance percentage was 1.04% at
10
<PAGE>
September 30, 1999 and 1.04% at December 31, 1999. The increase in the allowance
percentage on the restated basis at September 30, 2000 resulted primarily from
the provision component of approximately $450,000 for the second quarter of 2000
to align the credit risk metholodogies of FNB Corp. and Carolina Fincorp.
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income for the first nine months and third quarter of 2000
increased $267,000 or 8.8% and $62,000 or 6.2%, respectively, compared to the
same periods in 1999, reflecting in part the general increase in the volume of
business. The increase in service charges on deposit accounts in comparing
nine-month periods was primarily due to the selected increases in service charge
rates that became effective in the 1999 first quarter and to improved fee
collection efforts, the latter factor significantly relating to the increase in
comparing third quarter periods. Other income was higher in the first nine
months of 2000 due largely to a $76,000 gain on the sale of an investment
recorded in the second quarter. Reflecting reduced mortgage loan activity in
2000, gains on loan sales, included in other income, were lower than in 1999.
Noninterest Expense
Excluding merger-related expenses of $2,796,000 recorded in the second
quarter of 2000, noninterest expense was $736,000 or 6.5% higher in the first
nine months of 2000 compared to the same period in 1999 and for the third
quarter was $62,000 or 1.6% higher, due largely to increased personnel expense,
a higher level of advertising and marketing expense and the continuing effects
of inflation. The level of noninterest expense was further affected by the
opening of a new branch office in August 1999 (see "Business Development
Matters"). The components of noninterest expense were affected by the major data
processing conversion completed in the first quarter of 1999, which conversion
ultimately resulted in a major reduction in the cost of data processing services
provided by outside processors. The cost of outside data processing services for
Richmond Savings continued until its merger into First National Bank and Trust
Company on June 26, 2000. Personnel expense was impacted by increased staffing
requirements, especially as related to the data processing conversion and to the
opening of the new branch office, and by normal salary adjustments. Personnel
expense was further negatively affected in 2000 by a special group medical
insurance assessment of $176,000 in the second quarter. Additionally, group
medical insurance rates were increased approximately 39% in the 2000 second
quarter. Furniture and equipment expense increased largely as a result of the
data processing conversion, especially for depreciation and maintenance charges.
Advertising and marketing expense, included in other expense, increased $48,000
in the first nine months of 2000 due primarily to an increased level of
expenditures related to the major marketing plan centered around the "YES YOU
CAN, YES WE CAN(R)" program, although such expense did decline $55,000 in the
2000 third quarter compared to the same period in 1999.
The major data processing conversion from a service bureau arrangement
to an in-house basis, completed on March 26, 1999 and discussed in "Business
Development Matters", significantly affected operating results for the 1999
first quarter. The cost of data processing services in the 1999 first quarter
was impacted by the higher rate charged by the service bureau on a
month-to-month basis, subsequent to the termination of the prior long-term
agreement in late 1998. Also, personnel expense was negatively affected by the
staffing and training requirements that were preliminary to the implementation
of the new system.
11
<PAGE>
Subsequent to the 1999 first quarter, the total cost related to data
processing operations on an in-house basis compares favorably to the cost that
was being experienced under the service bureau arrangement prior to the start of
the conversion process in the 1998 fourth quarter. Noninterest expense
components are being significantly affected, however, as there is a major
decrease in the direct cost of data processing services, but increases in the
levels of personnel expense and furniture and equipment expense.
Income Taxes
The effective income tax rate increased from 31.2% in the first nine
months of 1999 to 35.1% in the same period of 2000 due principally to the
expected nondeductibility of certain merger-related expenses.
Liquidity
Liquidity refers to the continuing ability of the Bank to meet deposit
withdrawals, fund loan and capital expenditure commitments, maintain reserve
requirements, pay operating expenses and provide funds to the Parent Company for
payment of dividends, debt service and other operational requirements. Liquidity
is immediately available from five major sources: (a) cash on hand and on
deposit at other banks, (b) the outstanding balance of federal funds sold, (c)
lines for the purchase of federal funds from other banks, (d) the $65,700,000
line of credit established at the Federal Home Loan Bank, less existing advances
against that line, and (e) the available-for-sale securities portfolio. Further,
while available-for-sale securities are intended to be a source of immediate
liquidity, the entire investment securities portfolio is managed to provide both
income and a ready source of liquidity. All debt securities are of investment
grade quality and, if the need arises, can be promptly liquidated on the open
market or pledged as collateral for short-term borrowing.
Consistent with its approach to liquidity, the Bank as a matter of
policy does not solicit or accept brokered deposits for funding asset growth.
Instead, loans and other assets are based primarily on a core of local deposits
and the Bank's capital position. To date, the steady increase in deposits,
retail repurchase agreements and capital, supplemented by Federal Home Loan Bank
advances, has been adequate to fund loan demand in the Bank's market area, while
maintaining the desired level of immediate liquidity and a substantial
investment securities portfolio available for both immediate and secondary
liquidity purposes.
Asset/Liability Management and Interest Rate Senstivity
One of the primary objectives of asset/liability management is to
maximize net interest margin while minimizing the earnings risk associated with
changes in interest rates. One method used to manage interest rate sensitivity
is to measure, over various time periods, the interest rate sensitivity
positions, or gaps; however, this method addresses only the magnitude of timing
differences and does not address earnings or market value. Therefore, management
uses an earnings simulation model to prepare, on a regular basis, earnings
projections based on a range of interest rate scenarios in order to more
accurately measure interest rate risk.
The Bank's balance sheet was liability-sensitive at September 30, 2000.
A liability-sensitive position means that in gap measurement periods of one year
or less there are more liabilities than assets subject to immediate repricing as
market rates change. Because immediately rate sensitive interest-bearing
liabilities exceed rate sensitive assets, the earnings position could improve in
a declining rate environment and could deteriorate in a rising rate environment,
depending on the correlation of rate changes in these two categories.
12
<PAGE>
Included in interest-bearing liabilities subject to rate changes within 90 days
is a portion of the NOW, savings and money market deposits. These types of
deposits historically have not repriced coincidentally with or in the same
proportion as general market indicators.
Capital Adequacy
Under guidelines established by the Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve System, capital adequacy is currently measured for regulatory purposes
by certain risk-based capital ratios, supplemented by a leverage capital ratio.
The risk-based capital ratios are determined by expressing allowable capital
amounts, defined in terms of Tier 1, Tier 2 and Tier 3, as a percentage of
risk-weighted assets, which are computed by measuring the relative credit risk
of both the asset categories on the balance sheet and various off-balance sheet
exposures. Tier 1 capital consists primarily of common shareholders' equity and
qualifying perpetual preferred stock, net of goodwill and other disallowed
intangible assets. Tier 2 capital, which is limited to the total of Tier 1
capital, includes allowable amounts of subordinated debt, mandatory convertible
debt, preferred stock and the allowance for loan losses. Tier 3 capital,
applicable only to financial institutions subject to certain market risk capital
guidelines, is capital allocated to support the market risk related to a
financial institution's ongoing trading activities. At September 30, 2000, FNB
Corp. and the Bank were not subject to the market risk capital guidelines and,
accordingly, had no Tier 3 capital allocation. Total capital, for risk-based
purposes, consists of the sum of Tier 1, Tier 2 and Tier 3 capital. Under
current requirements, the minimum total capital ratio is 8.00% and the minimum
Tier 1 capital ratio is 4.00%. At September 30, 2000, FNB Corp. and the Bank had
total capital ratios of 15.51% and 15.04%, respectively, and Tier 1 capital
ratios of 14.41% and 13.94%.
The leverage capital ratio, which serves as a minimum capital standard,
considers Tier 1 capital only and is expressed as a percentage of average total
assets for the most recent quarter, after reduction of those assets for goodwill
and other disallowed intangible assets at the measurement date. As currently
required, the minimum leverage capital ratio is 4.00%. At September 30, 2000,
FNB Corp. and the Bank had leverage capital ratios of 10.06% and 9.73%,
respectively.
The Bank is also required to comply with prompt corrective action
provisions established by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement
Act. To be categorized as well-capitalized, the Bank must have a minimum ratio
for total capital of 10.00%, for Tier 1 capital of 6.00% and for leverage
capital of 5.00%. As noted above, the Bank met all of those ratio requirements
at September 30, 2000 and, accordingly, is well-capitalized under the regulatory
framework for prompt corrective action.
Balance Sheet Review
Restated to reflect the merger with Carolina Fincorp as discussed in
the "Overview", total assets at September 30, 2000 were higher than at September
30, 1999 and December 31, 1999 by $43,272,000 or 8.6% and $30,667,000 or 5.9%,
respectively; deposits were ahead by $40,239,000 or 9.6% and $33,493,000 or
7.8%. The level of funds provided by retail repurchase agreements at September
30, 2000 had decreased by $2,301,000 or 18.6% from September 30, 1999 and by
$602,000 or 5.6% from December 31, 1999. Average assets increased 11.1% in the
first nine months of 2000 compared to the same period in 1999, while average
deposits increased 11.2%, the third quarter increases being 10.2% and 11.0%,
respectively.

Investment Securities
Additions to the investment securities portfolio depend to a large
extent on the availability of investable funds that are not otherwise needed to
satisfy loan demand. During the twelve-month period ended September 30, 2000,
when the growth in loans exceeded that for total assets, the level of investment
securities was reduced $4,559,000 or 3.6%, with a net increase of $820,000 or
0.7% occurring in the first nine months of 2000. Investable funds not otherwise
utilized are temporarily invested on an overnight basis as federal funds sold,
the level of which is affected by such considerations as near-term loan demand
and liquidity needs. Based on funds requirements, the Bank was a net purchaser
of funds at September 30, 2000.
Loans
The Corporation's primary source of revenue and largest component of
earning assets is the loan portfolio. Loans increased $64,116,000 or 19.1%
during the twelve-month period ended September 30, 2000. The net loan increase
during the first nine months of 2000 was $39,226,000 or 10.9%. Average loans
were $56,546,000 or 17.5% higher in the first nine months of 2000 than in the
same period of 1999. The ratio of average loans to average deposits, in
comparing nine-month periods increased from 80.1% in 1999 to 84.7% in 2000. The
ratio of loans to deposits at September 30, 2000 was 86.9%.
The commercial and agricultural loan portfolio has experienced strong
gains during both the twelve-month period ended September 30, 2000 and the first
nine months of 2000. The 1-4 family residential mortgage loan portfolio has also
gained significantly during these periods. Lease financing contracts, a new loan
product in 1999, have further added to the balance of the total loan portfolio.
Loan growth and the composition of the loan portfolio are being affected by
management's decision in March 1996 to discontinue the purchase of retail
installment loan contracts from automobile and equipment dealers (see "Business
Development Matters"). The outstanding balance of these loan contracts, which
are primarily included in consumer loans, experienced a net decrease of $784,000
during the twelve-month period ended September 30, 2000. Total consumer loans
declined during that period.
Asset Quality
Management considers the Bank's asset quality to be of primary
importance. A formal loan review function, independent of loan origination, is
used to identify and monitor problem loans. As part of the loan review function,
a third party assessment group is employed to review the underwriting
documentation and risk grading analysis. In determining the allowance for loan
losses and any resulting provision to be charged against earnings, particular
emphasis is placed on the results of the loan review process. Consideration is
also given to historical loan loss experience, the value and adequacy of
collateral, and economic conditions in the Bank's market area. For loans
determined to be impaired, the allowance is based on discounted cash flows using
the loan's initial effective interest rate or the fair value of the collateral
for certain collateral dependent loans. This evaluation is inherently subjective
as it requires material estimates, including the amounts and timing of future
cash flows expected to be received on impaired loans that may be susceptible to
significant change. The unallocated portion of the allowance for loan losses
represents management's estimate of the appropriate level of reserve to provide
for probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio. Considerations in
determining the unallocated portion of the allowance for loan losses include
general economic and lending trends and other factors.
14
<PAGE>
Management's policy in regard to past due loans is conservative and
normally requires a prompt charge-off to the allowance for loan losses following
timely collection efforts and a thorough review. Further efforts are then
pursued through various means available. Loans carried in a nonaccrual status
are generally collateralized and the possibility of future losses is considered
in the determination of the allowance for loan losses.
The following table presents an analysis of the changes in the
allowance for loan losses.

At September 30, 2000, the Bank had impaired loans with two borrowers
which totaled $315,000 and were also on nonaccrual status. At September 30,
2000, nonperforming loans were $2,068,000 in total, nonaccrual loans and
accruing loans past due 90 days or more amounting to $791,000 and $1,277,000,
respectively. At September 30, 1999, nonperforming loans were $1,332,000 in
total, nonaccrual loans and accruing loans past due 90 days or more amounting to
$939,000 and $393,000, respectively
Deposits
The level and mix of deposits is affected by various factors, including
general economic conditions, the particular circumstances of local markets and
the specific deposit strategies employed. In general, broad interest rate
declines tend to encourage customers to consider alternative investments such as
mutual funds and tax-deferred annuity products, while interest rate increases
tend to have the opposite effect.
The Bank's level and mix of deposits has been specifically affected by
the following factors. Time deposits, largely reflecting the effect of
promotions for premium-rate certificates of deposit, accounted for $37,758,000
of total deposit growth of $40,239,000 during the twelve-month period ended
September 30, 2000 and, due to a net increase of $34,746,000, exceeded total
deposit growth of $33,493,000 during the first nine months of 2000. Further, the
level of time deposits obtained from governmental units fluctuates, amounting to
$44,506,000, $32,512,000 and $38,529,000 at September 30, 2000, September 30,
1999 and December 31, 1999, respectively.
Business Development Matters
As discussed in the "Overview" and in Note 3 to Consolidated Financial
Statements, the Corporation completed a merger in the second quarter of 2000 for
the acquisition of Carolina Fincorp, holding company for Richmond Savings,
headquartered in Rockingham, North Carolina.
15
<PAGE>
Prior to March 26, 1999, the Bank's data processing, item capture and
statement rendering operations were outsourced under a service bureau
arrangement. Commencing in the 1998 fourth quarter, the Bank began the process
of converting these operations to an in-house basis. Conversion to the
replacement systems occurred on March 26, 1999. Richmond Savings, however, was
on a service bureau arrangement until its merger into the Bank on June 26, 2000.
The total capital expenditure outlay for hardware and software amounted to
approximately $1,700,000, of which approximately one-half was recorded in 1998
and the remainder in 1999. In addition to capital expenditures for the new
system, the Bank incurred certain expenses in 1998, totaling approximately
$302,000, related to deconversion from the prior arrangement.
In the 1998 fourth quarter, the Bank received regulatory approval for
establishment of a new branch office in Trinity, North Carolina. Construction of
the permanent Trinity facility is expected to be complete in 2001, resulting in
a total capital outlay of approximately $1,000,000, of which approximately
one-third was recorded in 1998 related to the purchase of land. Prior to
completion of the permanent facility, a temporary mobile office, which opened in
August 1999, is being operated at this site.
Management decided in March 1996 that the Bank would discontinue the
purchase of retail installment loan contracts from automobile and equipment
dealers, due largely to the declining yields being experienced in this loan
program. Contracts of this nature included in loans at September 30, 2000,
September 30, 1999 and December 31, 1999 amounted to $571,000, $1,355,000 and
$963,000, respectively. While there will be no purchases of new contracts,
current plans call for the collection of outstanding loans based on their
contractual terms. The funds previously invested in this loan program are being
redeployed, as loan payments occur, to other loan programs or to the investment
securities portfolio.
Accounting Pronouncement Issues
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities". SFAS No. 133 establishes
accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments and for hedging
activities. This statement, as amended by SFAS No. 137 and No. 138, is effective
for the Corporation beginning October 1, 2000, without any significant impact
expected on the consolidated financial statements as the Corporation does not
have any significant derivative financial instruments and is not involved in any
hedging activities.
The FASB has also issued SFAS No. 140, "Accounting for Transfers and
Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities, a replacement
of FASB Statement No. 125". SFAS No. 140 revises the standards for accounting
for securitizations and other transfers of financial assets and collateral and
requires certain disclosures, but it carries over most of SFAS No. 125's
provisions without reconsideration. This statement is effective for transfers
and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of liabilities occurring
after March 31, 2001. This Statement is not expected to materially impact the
Corporation.
Cautionary Statement for Purpose of the "Safe Harbor" Provisions of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995
The statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that are
not historical facts are forward-looking statements (as such term is defined in
the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995), which can be identified
by the use of forward-looking terminology such as "believes", "expects",
"plans",
16
<PAGE>
"projects", "goals", "estimates", "may", "could", "should", or "anticipates" or
the negative thereof or other variations thereon of comparable terminology, or
by discussions of strategy that involve risks and uncertainties. In addition,
from time to time, the Corporation or its representatives have made or may make
forward-looking statements, orally or in writing. Such forward-looking
statements may be included in, but are not limited to, various filings made by
the Corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or press releases
or oral statements made by or with the approval of an authorized executive
officer of the Corporation. Forward-looking statements are based on management's
current views and assumptions and involve risks and uncertainties that could
significantly affect expected results. The Corporation wishes to caution the
reader that factors, such as those listed below, in some cases have affected and
could affect the Corporation's actual results, causing actual results to differ
materially from those in any forward-looking statement. These factors include:
(i) expected cost savings from the merger completed with Carolina Fincorp in the
second quarter of 2000 may not materialize, (ii) the Corporation may experience
greater than expected deposit attrition, customer loss, or revenue loss in
connection with the merger, (iii) competitive pressure in the banking industry
or in the Corporation's markets may increase significantly, (iv) changes in the
interest rate environment may reduce margins, (v) general economic conditions,
either nationally or regionally, may be less favorable than expected, resulting
in, among other things, credit quality deterioration, (vi) changes may occur in
banking legislation and in the environment, (vii) changes may occur in general
business conditions and inflation and (viii) changes may occur in the securities
markets. Readers should also consider information on risks and uncertainties
contained in the discussions of competition, supervision and regulation, and
effect of governmental policies contained in the Corporation's most recent
Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Market risk reflects the risk of economic loss resulting from adverse
changes in market price and interest rates. This risk of loss can be reflected
in diminished current market values and/or reduced potential net interest income
in future periods.
The Bank's market risk arises primarily from interest rate risk
inherent in its lending and deposit-taking activities. The structure of the
Bank's loan and deposit portfolios is such that a significant decline in
interest rates may adversely impact net market values and net interest income.
The Bank does not maintain a trading account nor is the Bank subject to currency
exchange risk or commodity price risk. Interest rate risk is monitored as part
of the Bank's asset/liability management function, which is discussed above in
Item 2 "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations" under the heading "Asset/Liability Management and Interest Rate
Sensitivity".
Management does not believe there has been any significant change in
the overall analysis of financial instruments considered market risk sensitive,
as measured by the factors of contractual maturities, average interest rates and
estimated fair values, since the analysis prepared and presented in conjunction
with the Form 10-K Annual Report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1999. A
merger acquisition in the second quarter of 2000, discussed in Note 3 to
Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 above, is not considered to have
materially impacted the Bank's market risk.
