COLUMBIA BANCORP AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Information as of and for the six months ended
June 30, 1998 and 1997 is unaudited)
NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying consolidated financial statements for Columbia Bancorp
(the "Company") have been prepared in accordance with the instructions for Form
10-Q and, therefore, do not include all information and notes necessary for a
fair presentation of financial condition, results of operations and cash flows
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. The consolidated
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial
statements included in the Company's 1997 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Company's subsidiary, The Columbia Bank, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries,
McAlpine Enterprises, Inc. and Howard I, LLP (collectively, the "Bank"). All
significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Effective January 1, 1998, management adopted the provisions of SFAS
No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" ("SFAS No. 130"), which establishes
standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components
in a full set of general purpose financial statements. It requires all items
that are required to be recognized under accounting standards as components of
comprehensive income be reported in a financial statement that is displayed in
equal prominence with other financial statements. It requires that an enterprise
display an amount representing total comprehensive income for each period. It
does not require per share amounts of comprehensive income to be disclosed. The
adoption of the provisions of SFAS No. 130 did not have a material impact on the
financial condition or results of operations of the Company.
In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related
Information" ("SFAS No. 131"). SFAS No. 131 established standards for the way
public business enterprises are to report information about operating segments
in annual financial statements and requires those enterprises to report selected
information about operating segments in interim financial statements issued to
shareholders. SFAS No. 131 is effective for financial statements for periods
beginning after December 15, 1997. Management intends to adopt its provisions
during 1998.
In June 1998, FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS No. 133"). SFAS No. 133 establishes
accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain
derivative instruments embedded in other contracts (collectively referred to as
derivatives) and for hedging activities. It requires that an entity recognize
all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the statement of financial
position and measure those instruments at fair value. It is effective for all
fiscal quarters or fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999. Initial
application of the Statement should be as of the beginning of an entity's fiscal
quarter. On that date, hedging relationships must be designated anew and
documented pursuant to the provisions of SFAS No. 133. Earlier application is
encouraged, but is permitted only as of the beginning of any fiscal quarter that
begins after issuance of SFAS No. 133. It should not be applied retroactively to
financial statements of prior periods. Management is currently evaluating SFAS
No. 133 to determine its impact and to determine when management will adopt the
provisions of SFAS No. 133.
The consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 1998 and for the
three months and six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997 are unaudited but
include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which
the Company considers necessary for a fair presentation of financial position
and results of operations for those periods. The Consolidated Statement of
Income for the six months ended June 30, 1998 is not necessarily indicative of
the results that will be achieved for the entire year.

NOTE 3 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
The Company is party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet
risk in the normal course of business in order to meet the financing needs of
customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit,
standby letters of credit and mortgage loans sold with limited recourse.
The Company applies the same credit policies in making commitments and
conditional obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments. A summary
of the financial instruments at June 30, 1998 whose contract amounts represent
potential credit risk is as follows:
June 30,
1998
------------------------------------------------------------------
(in thousands)
Commitments to extend credit (a) $156,459
Standby letters of credit 15,418
Limited recourse on mortgage loans sold 354
- --------------
(a) Includes unused lines of credit totalling $150.7 million regardless of
whether fee paid and whether adverse change clauses exist. The amount also
includes commitments to extend new credit totalling $5.8 million.

<PAGE>
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Liquidity
---------
Liquidity describes the ability of the Company to meet financial
obligations, including lending commitments and contingencies, that arise during
the normal course of business. Liquidity is primarily needed to meet the
borrowing and deposit withdrawal requirements of the customers of the Company,
as well as to meet current and planned expenditures.
The Company's major sources of liquidity ("financing activities" as
used in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows) are the Bank's deposit base
and stockholders' equity. At June 30, 1998, total deposits were $329.1 million.
Core deposits, defined as all deposits except certificates of deposit of
$100,000 or more, totalled $310.9 million or 94.5% of total deposits.
Stockholders' equity totalled $36.8 million at June 30, 1998. Also, the Bank has
established a credit line with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta ("FHLB") as
an additional source of liquidity. At June 30, 1998, outstanding advances from
the FHLB totalled $15.0 million. Collateral must be pledged to the FHLB before
advances can be obtained. At June 30, 1998 the Company's approved credit limit
with the FHLB was $45.0 million. However, the Company had collateral sufficient
to borrow up to $81.9 million. Borrowings above the approved credit limit
require special approval. In addition, liquidity is also provided through the
Company's portfolio of cash, interest-bearing deposits in other banks, and
federal funds sold. Such assets totalled $35.6 million or 8.7% of total assets
at June 30, 1998.
Capital Resources
-----------------
The Federal Reserve Board has adopted risk-based guidelines for bank
holding companies. As of June 30, 1998, the minimum ratio of capital to
risk-weighted assets (including certain off-balance-sheet items, such as standby
letters of credit) was 8.0%. At least half of the total capital must be
comprised of common equity, retained earnings and a limited amount of perpetual
preferred stock, after subtracting goodwill and making certain other adjustments
("Tier 1 capital"). The remainder may consist of perpetual debt, mandatory
convertible debt securities, a limited amount of subordinated debt, other
preferred stock and limited amounts of credit loss reserves ("Tier 2 capital").
The maximum amount of supplementary capital elements that qualifies as Tier 2
capital is limited to 100% of Tier 1 capital, net of goodwill and certain other
intangible assets. The Federal Reserve Board also has adopted a minimum leverage
ratio (Tier 1 capital to assets) of 3% for bank holding companies that meet
certain specified criteria, including having the highest regulatory rating. The
rule indicates that the minimum leverage ratio should be at least 1.0% to 2.0%
higher for holding companies that do not have the highest rating or that are
undertaking major expansion programs. Failure to meet the capital guidelines
could subject a banking institution to a variety of enforcement remedies
available to federal bank regulatory agencies.
The following table summarizes the Company's capital ratios:
Minimum

Risk-based capital ratios:
Tier 1 capital 11.98% 4.00%
Total capital 13.18 8.00

<PAGE>
MATERIAL CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION
---------------------------------------
Cash and Due from Banks
- -----------------------
Cash and due from banks represents cash on hand, cash on deposit with
other banks and cash items in the process of collection. As a result of the
Company's cash management services provided to large, sophisticated corporate
customers, which includes processing coin and currency transactions for, and
checks received by, retail customers, the Company's cash balances may fluctuate
more widely on a daily basis and may be higher than industry averages for banks
of a similar asset size.
Loans
- -----
At June 30, 1998, the Company's loan portfolio, net of unearned income,
totalled $267.8 million, or 65.6% of its total assets of $408.5 million. The
categories of loans in the Company's portfolio are commercial, real estate
development and construction, residential and commercial mortgages and consumer.
Since December 31, 1997, total loans increased $2.6 million, or 1.0%.
Real estate development and construction loans increased $3.8 million, or 3.5%
since December 31, 1997. This was partially offset, however, by a decrease of
$1.3 million in commercial mortgage loans, resulting from refinancing activity.
Real estate development and construction loans constitute the largest
portion of the Company's lending activities, and consisted of the following at
June 30, 1998:
Amount Percent
------------------------------------------------------
(dollars in thousands)
Residential construction (a) $ 50,081 43.8%
Residential land development 48,220 42.2
Residential land acquisition (b) 9,587 8.4
Commercial construction 6,370 5.6
-------- -----
$114,258 100.0%
======== =====

(a) Includes $12.4 million of loans to individuals for construction of their
primary personal residence.
(b) Includes $2.7 million of loans to individuals for the purchase of
residential building lots.
The Company provides interim residential real estate development and
construction loans to builders, developers and persons who will ultimately
occupy the single family dwellings. These loans are typically made for 80% or
less of the appraised value of the property. Residential real estate development
and construction loan funds are disbursed periodically as pre-specified stages
of completion are attained based upon site inspections. Interest rates on these
loans are usually adjustable.
Residential construction loans constitute the largest component of the
real estate development and construction loan portfolio, representing primarily
loans for the construction of single family dwellings. At June 30, 1998, loans
to individuals for the construction of primary personal residences accounted for
$12.4 million of the $50.1 million residential construction portfolio. These
loans are typically secured by the property under construction, frequently
include additional collateral (such as a second mortgage on the borrower's
present home), and commonly have maturities of six to twelve months. The
remaining $37.7 million of residential construction loans represented loans to
residential builders and developers. Approximately 34.5% of these loans were for
the construction of residential homes for which a binding sales contract existed
and the prospective buyers had been pre-qualified for permanent mortgage
financing by either third-party lenders (mortgage companies or other financial
institutions) or the Company. To date, permanent mortgage loan financing has
primarily been provided by third-party
(9)
<PAGE>
lenders. The Company attempts to obtain the permanent mortgage loan under terms,
conditions and documentation standards which permit the sale of the mortgage
loan in the secondary mortgage loan market. The Company's practice is to
immediately sell substantially all residential mortgage loans in the secondary
market with servicing released.
Loans for the development of residential land represented the second largest
component of the real estate development and construction loan portfolio at June
30, 1998, totalling $48.2 million or 42.2% of the portfolio. Generally,
development loans are extended only when evidence is provided that the lots
under development will be or have been sold to builders satisfactory to the
Company. These loans are generally extended for a period of time sufficient to
allow for the clearing and grading of the land and the installation of water,
sewer and roads, typically a minimum of 18 months to three years. In addition,
residential land development loans generally carry a loan to value ratio not to
exceed 75% of the value of the project as completed.
The Company has limited loan losses in this area of lending through the
monitoring of development and construction loans with on-site inspections and
control of disbursements on loans in process. Development and construction loans
are secured by the properties under development or construction and personal
guarantees are typically obtained. Further, to assure that reliance is not
placed solely upon the value of the underlying collateral, the Company considers
the financial condition and reputation of the borrower and any guarantors, the
amount of the borrower's equity in the project, independent appraisals, cost
estimates and pre-construction sales information.
The following table provides information concerning nonperforming
assets and past-due loans.
June 30, December 31, June 30,
1998 1997 1997
--------------------------------------------------------------
(dollars in thousands)
Nonaccrual loans (a) $2,053 $ 599 $3,431
Other real estate owned 4,072 4,622 1,319
------ ------ ------
Total nonperforming assets $6,125 $5,221 $4,750
====== ====== ======
Loans past-due 90 days or more $ 27 $ 63 $ 102
====== ====== ======
- ------------------
(a) Loans are placed in nonaccrual status when they are past-due 90 days as to
either principal or interest or when, in the opinion of management, the
collection of all principal and interest is in doubt. Management may grant a
waiver from nonaccrual status for a 90-day past-due loan which is both well
secured and in the process of collection. A loan remains in nonaccrual
status until the loan is current as to payment of both principal and
interest and the borrower demonstrates the ability to pay and remain
current.
The largest component of nonperforming assets at June 30, 1998 was the
Company's portfolio of other real estate owned totalling $4.1 million. At June
30, 1998, other real estate owned included a land development project consisting
of 214 residential building lots with a carrying value of $3.3 million net of
participations sold, a 24 unit residential condominium construction project with
13 remaining units and a carrying value of $551,000 net of participations sold,
one residential condominium building site with a carrying value of $158,000 and
certain other properties acquired in satisfaction of loans. The land development
project is being completed under the direction of the Company. Currently, 139
lots are under contract of sale for settlement through July 2000, and the
remainder of the project is being marketed for sale. Construction of the
residential condominium project is complete and 11 units are under contract of
sale and are scheduled for settlement during 1998. The remaining units are being
marketed for sale. The condominium building site is under contract of sale for
settlement in 1998.
Nonaccrual loans totalled $2.1 million at June 30, 1998 and consisted
primarily of a residential construction loan totalling $1.1 million, a land
acquisition loan totalling $369,000, and an acquisition and construction loan
totalling $109,000. The residential construction loan was sold at auction
subsequent to June 30, 1998, with settlement expected in September 1998. The
Company anticipates recovery of all principal, interest and expenses.
(10)
<PAGE>
Impaired loans at June 30, 1998 totalled $2.1 million and represented
$1.7 million in residential construction and commercial nonaccrual loans and
$400,000 in residential construction loans which have demonstrated weaknesses in
the past. All impaired loans were collateral dependent loans, which are measured
based on the fair value of the collateral. There were no impaired loans at June
30, 1998 with an allocated valuation allowance. An impaired loan is charged-off
when the loan, or a portion thereof, is considered uncollectible.
Allowance for Credit Losses
- ---------------------------
The Company provides for credit losses through the establishment of an
allowance for credit losses (the "Allowance") by provisions charged against
earnings. Based upon management's evaluation, monthly provisions are made to
maintain the Allowance at a level adequate to absorb potential losses within the
loan portfolio. The factors used by management in determining the adequacy of
the Allowance include the historical relationships among loans outstanding;
credit loss experience and the current level of the Allowance; a continuing
evaluation of nonperforming loans and loans classified by management as having
potential for future deterioration taking into consideration collateral value
and the financial strength of the borrower and guarantors; and a continuing
evaluation of the present and future economic environment. Regular review of the
loan portfolio's quality is conducted by the Company's staff. In addition,
independent consultants, bank regulatory agencies and independent accountants
periodically review the loan portfolio. At June 30, 1998 the Allowance was 1.37%
of total loans, net of unearned income. The Allowance at June 30, 1998 is
considered by management to be appropriate in consideration of the possible
risks in the loan portfolio given current conditions and information.
The changes in the Allowance are presented in the following table.
Six months ended June 30,
-------------------------
1998 1997
---------------------------------------------------------------------
(dollars in thousands)
Allowance for credit losses -
beginning of period $ 3,632 $3,293
Provision for credit losses 183 395
Charge-offs (150) (188)

Allowance as a percentage of nonperforming
loans and loans past-due 90 days or more (a) 176.59% 99.43%
======= ======
- --------------
(a) There is no direct relationship between the size of the Allowance and the
related provision for credit losses, and the nonperforming and past-due
loans. Accordingly, the ratio of Allowance to nonperforming and past-due
loans may tend to fluctuate significantly.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
---------------------
The Company reported net income of $1.2 million and $2.2 million for
the three months and six months ended June 30, 1998, representing diluted net
income per share of $.25 and $.49, respectively. Net income was $1.0 million and
$2.0 million for the corresponding periods in 1997, representing diluted net
income per share of $.22 and $.43, respectively.
Net Interest Income
- -------------------
Net interest income totalled $4.9 million and $9.9 million for the
three months and six months ended June 30, 1998, respectively, as compared to
$4.7 million and $9.1 million for the same periods in 1997. Improvement in net
interest income was primarily the result of an increase in the average balance
of loans and investment securities outstanding during the three months and six
months ended June 30, 1998, as compared to the same periods in 1997. Average
loans outstanding, net of unearned income, increased $26.9 million or 10.6%, and
$32.2 million or 13.1% for the three months and six months ended June 30, 1998,
respectively, as compared to the same periods in 1997, representing growth in
the Company's commercial and second mortgage portfolios, as well as in loans
originated for sale. Average investment securities and securities
available-for-sale increased $18.3 million and $19.4 million for the three and
six months ended June 30, 1998, respectively, as compared to the same periods in
1997, primarily as a result of increased investments in U.S. Treasury
securities.
The increase in net interest income due to increases in average earning
assets was mitigated by higher average balances in deposits and borrowings.
Average interest-bearing deposits outstanding during the three months and six
months ended June 30, 1998 increased $34.7 million or 14.9% and $38.1 million or
16.9%, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 1997, while average
borrowings increased $8.4 million or 32.2% and $8.1 million or 32.6%.
Furthermore, the net interest margin declined from 6.13% and 6.12% for the three
months and six months ended June 30, 1997, respectively, to 5.50% and 5.60% for
the same periods in 1998. The decline in the net interest margin was the result
of competitive pressure on loan pricing, which has caused the yield on loans to
decrease from 10.54% for the six months ended June 30, 1997 to 10.08% for the
same period in 1998. In addition, loans, the Company's highest yielding asset,
on average declined as a percentage of interest-earning assets from 82.1% for
the six months ended June 30, 1997 to 78.6% for the same period in 1998.

absolute dollar amounts of the change in each.
(b) Includes interest on loans orginated for sale.
Noninterest Income
- ------------------
Noninterest income totalled $1.1 million and $2.1 million for the three
months and six months ended June 30, 1998, respectively, as compared to $614,000
and $1.1 million for the corresponding periods in 1997. Growth in noninterest
income primarily reflected an increase in gains on sales of mortgage loans
originated for sale of $427,000 and $777,000 for the three months and six months
ended June 30, 1998, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 1997. The
increase was a result of higher loan sale volume, as total loans sold increased
from $10.0 million and $18.6 million during the three months and six months
ended June 30, 1997, respectively, to $38.0 million and $70.0 million for the
same periods in 1998.
Noninterest Expense
- -------------------
Noninterest expense increased $619,000 or 17.5% and $1.6 million or
24.6% for the three months and six months ended June 30, 1998, respectively,
over the corresponding periods in 1997. The increase in noninterest expense
corresponded with an increase in business activity, including related expansion.
Specifically, salaries and employee benefits increased $457,000 and $1.1 million
during the three months and six months ended June 30, 1998, respectively, as
compared to the same periods in 1997 and primarily represented the net addition
of 14 employees since June 30, 1997. Growth in the employee base has been
necessary to accommodate increased business activity, including the addition of
two full-service branch facilities in June and November of 1997. Occupancy costs
increased $99,000 and $258,000, equipment costs increased $49,000 and $100,000
and data processing increased $62,000 and $110,000 for the three months and six
months ended June 30, 1998, respectively, as compared to 1997, also as a result
of these expansion efforts.

<PAGE>
Tax Expense
- -----------
The Company's effective tax rate declined from 38.9% for the six months
ended June 30, 1997 to 35.0% for the six months ended June 30, 1998 as the
result of changes in state tax laws. The effect of the change in 1997 was
recorded in the third quarter.
Year 2000 Action Plan
- ---------------------
In 1997, the Company adopted a Year 2000 Action Plan (the "Plan"). The
Plan identifies the process of which the Company will address Year 2000 related
issues. It also establishes a committee, lead by senior management, assigned the
responsibility to complete the Year 2000 preparations, with a targeted
completion date of December 31, 1998. The plan includes several phases as
follows: awareness, assessment; renovation; validation; and implementation.
The Company relies heavily upon its third party service bureau to
provide its data processing services. The Company has reviewed the Year 2000
plan established by its data processing service bureau and regularly evaluates
the progress being made. In addition, the Company is working with other vendors
to ensure timely completion of the Year 2000 project.
Costs associated with the Year 2000 project will primarily include
costs incurred to upgrade existing software and hardware not currently Year 2000
compliant. The Company estimates that these costs will be incurred in the normal
course of business as software and hardware is ordinarily upgraded to keep pace
with technological advances.
