                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)

NOTE 1.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

          The accounting and reporting policies of Golden Isles Financial
          Holdings, Inc. ("the Company") conform to generally accepted
          accounting principles and to general practices within the banking
          industry. The interim consolidated financial statements included
          herein are unaudited, but reflect all adjustments which, in the
          opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the
          consolidated financial position and results of operations for the
          interim periods presented. All adjustments reflected in the interim
          financial statements are of a normal, recurring nature. Such financial
          statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements
          and notes thereto and the report of the independent auditors included
          in the Company's Form 10-KSB Annual Report for the year ended December
          31, 1998. The results of operations for the six months ended June 30,
          1999 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for
          the full year.


NOTE 2.   DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

          During 1998, the Company discontinued the operations of its consumer
          finance subsidiary and disposed of its assets. The gain on disposal of
          the assets and the operations of the discontinued business segment
          have been accounted for as discontinued operations. The prior period's
          consolidated financial statements have been restated to reflect the
          discontinuation of the consumer finance segment.


ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
          RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     Liquidity is the Company's ability to meet all deposit withdrawals
immediately, while also providing for the credit needs of customers. The June
30, 1999 consolidated financial statements evidence a fair liquidity position as
total cash and Federal funds sold amounted to $11.0 million, representing 8.7%
of total assets. Investment securities amounted to $22.9 million, representing
18.1% of total assets. These securities provide a secondary source of liquidity
since they can be converted into cash in a timely manner. The Company's ability

                                      -2-
<PAGE>

to maintain and expand its deposit base and borrowing capabilities would provide
an additional source of liquidity. For the six-month period ended June 30, 1999,
total deposits increased 4.8% from $101.3 million to $106.1 million. Management
is also in the process of evaluating additional funding sources for the fourth
quarter of 1999 in the event extra liquidity is needed due to Year 2000
concerns. Management closely monitors and maintains appropriate levels of
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, so that maturities of
assets are such that adequate funds are provided to meet customer withdrawals
and loan demand. There are no trends, demands, commitments, events or
uncertainties that will result in or are reasonably likely to affect the
Company's liquidity position in any material way.

         The Company is subject to various regulatory capital requirements
administered by the federal and state banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum
capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly additional
discretionary, actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct
material effect on the financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines
and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company must meet
specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the assets,
liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory
accounting practices. The Company's capital amounts and classification are also
subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk
weightings and other factors.

         Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital
adequacy require the Company to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of total and
Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets and of Tier 1 capital to average assets.
Management believes, as of June 30, 1999, the Company meets all capital adequacy
requirements to which it is subject.


RESULTS FROM CONTINUING OPERATIONS

         The Company's results of operations are determined by its ability to
effectively manage interest income and expense, to minimize loan and investment
losses, to generate noninterest income and to control noninterest expense. Since
interest rates are determined by market forces and economic conditions beyond
the control of the Company, the ability to generate net interest income is
dependent upon its ability to obtain an adequate spread between the rate earned
on interest-earning assets and the rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities.

         The primary component of consolidated earnings is net interest income,
or the difference between interest income on interest-earning assets and
interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities. The net interest margin is net
interest income expressed as a percentage of average interest-earning assets.
Interest-earning assets consist of loans, investment securities and Federal
funds sold. Interest-bearing liabilities consist of deposits and other
borrowings.

                                      -3-
<PAGE>

         Net interest income increased $64,000 from $2,271,000 during the six
months ended June 30, 1998 to $2,335,000 during the six months ended June 30,
1999. Average loans outstanding increased from $81.4 million during the six
months ended June 30, 1998 to $87.7 million during the six months ended June 30,
1999. However, the increase in loan volume was offset by a decrease in average
loan yield of 79 basis points from 10.22% for the six months ended June 30, 1998
to 9.43% for the six months ended June 30, 1999. Net fees on loans decreased
from $210,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1998 to $134,000 for the same
period in 1999. Additionally, competitive pressure during 1999 forced the
Company to lower loan rates to compete in the local market. Excluding loan fee
income, the yield on loans would have been 9.12% and 9.72% during the six months
ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

         The net interest margin was 4.06% and 4.39% during the six months ended
June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively, a decrease of 33 basis points. The
decrease is due primarily to a decrease in the yield on loans discussed
previously. The yield on average earning assets was 8.54% and 9.33% during the
six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively. Cost of funds also
decreased to 5.30% for the six months ended June 30,1999 as compared to 5.68%
for the six months ended June 30, 1998.

         The provision for loan losses was $140,000 for the first six months of
1999 as compared to $125,000 for the same period of 1998. The allowance for loan
losses as a percentage of total loans outstanding amounted to 1.9% at June 30,
1999 as compared to 1.6% at June 30, 1998. The determination of the amounts
allocated for loan losses is based upon management's judgment concerning factors
affecting loan quality and assumptions about the local and national economy.
Management considers the allowance for loan losses at June 30, 1999 adequate to
cover potential losses in the loan portfolio.

         Noninterest income for the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998
amounted to $340,000 and $347,000, respectively. There was a decrease of $89,000
in service charges and overdraft charges from $282,000 for the first six months
of 1998 to $193,000 for the same period in 1999. Service charges decreased due
to a reduction in the monthly fee schedule on business accounts to compete with
local competition. Overdrafts charges decreased due to management's tightening
of credit review standards for deposit accounts. In an effort to increase
noninterest income, the Company started a mortgage loan department in its
subsidiary bank in 1999. Gross fees from the mortgage operations were $76,000
for the first six months of 1999. The Company had not established its mortgage
operations by June 30, 1998.

         Noninterest expense for the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998
amounted to $1,749,000 and $1,627,000, respectively. Salaries and commissions
for the mortgage loan department totaled $57,000 for the first six months of
1999. As a percent of total average assets, noninterest expense amounted to 2.9%
in 1999 and 3.0% in 1998.

                                      -4-
<PAGE>

         For the six months ended June 30, 1999, the Company realized net income
from continuing operations of $517,000, as compared to $530,000 for the six
months ended June 30, 1998. After recording a net loss from discontinued
operations of $15,000, the Company realized net income of $515,000 for the six
months ended June 30, 1998.

RESULTS FROM DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

         Following is a condensed summary of the results from discontinued
operations for the six months ended June 30, 1998. There were no results from
discontinued operations during the six months ended June 30, 1999.

YEAR 2000 READINESS

         The Company has developed and implemented a strategic plan to address
Year 2000 issues. The Year 2000 issue involves the risk that various problems
may result from the improper processing of dates and date-sensitive calculations
by computers and other equipment as the Year 2000 approaches.

         The Company has developed a Year 2000 plan in accordance with Federal
Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC) guidelines to address the
problem. The Company conducts ongoing employee education on the issue and has
identified all information technology (computers, software, etc.) and
non-information technology (alarms, vaults, etc.) that may be affected by the
year 2000 date change. Since the Company does not develop its

                                      -5-
<PAGE>

own software, it has contacted the various third party software vendors it uses
to obtain written documentation from them confirming Year 2000 compliance. All
mission critical software has been inventoried and tested and remediation has
been completed. The Company has tested its equipment for compliance and items
found not in compliance have been remediated to be compliant. Hardware, software
and systems will be retested if any changes are made to those systems after
initial testing is complete.

         The Company's core data processing is done on an in-house IBM AS 400
with Jack Henry Associates software. The hardware and software have been tested
and are Year 2000 compliant.

         The Company has developed a communication and assessment plan for its
customers. The Company has communicated the Year 2000 issue to both borrower and
depositor clients by various methods. The Company has contacted its key loan
clients to determine their status and plans with respect to the Year 2000 issue
and to determine the Company's exposure to any such customer's failure to
remediate its own Year 2000 problems. This initial customer review is complete
and follow-up reviews of key clients will be conducted regularly.

         To date, the Company has spent $288,000 on the Year 2000 project for
hardware and software upgrades, customer communications, testing and other items
required to complete the plan. Year 2000 project costs during the six months
ended June 30, 1999 were not material.

         The Company believes that its mission critical systems are compliant
and that its customers are aware of and are addressing their own Year 2000
issues. However, in the Company's most reasonably likely worst case scenario,
some portion of a mission critical system may not function properly or some
borrowers may be unable to meet their loan commitments due to problems with
their systems. In the event that a mission critical system temporarily fails to
perform properly, the Company will invoke its contingency plan to correct the
problem. The Company will incur extra costs for salaries and for independent
expert assistance. These costs are not expected to be material. Some of the
Company's loan customers may experience financial difficulties if their mission
critical systems are not compliant and do not perform properly. There can be no
guarantee that customers will resolve their Year 2000 issues on a timely basis.
Significant business interruptions or failures by key clients resulting from
Year 2000 problems could have a material adverse effect on the Company.

         The Company has developed contingency plans to mitigate the potential
effects of a disruption in normal operations resulting from Year 2000 problems.
The plan addresses, among other factors, the Company's potential increased
liquidity and currency requirements at the critical dates, security issues, and
business resumption planning. The Company has in place written procedures to
manually perform or outsource every mission critical task

                                      -6-
<PAGE>

relating to loan and deposit processing in the event some part of a system does
not function properly. The Company is developing forecasts of liquidity needs
and will inventory extra currency to meet any higher than normal demand during
the critical periods. Security will be augmented during these periods. Personnel
staffing will be carefully scheduled during the affected periods. These
contingency plans are frequently reviewed and updated as needed. Phase III of
the FDIC Year 2000 examination has begun and the Company has submitted its Year
2000 contingency plan for approval by the FDIC.
