NOTE TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
(1) Basis of Presentation
The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Eagle
Bancorp, Inc. ("the Company") and its wholly owned subsidiary, Eagle Bank and
Trust. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements do not
include all information and notes necessary for a fair presentation of financial
position, results of operations, and cash flows in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles. All adjustments consisting of normal recurring
accruals which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to a fair statement
of the financial position and results of operations for the periods covered by
this report have been included.
(2) Earnings Per Share
Earnings per share has been calculated in accordance with the provisions of
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Board. SFAS No. 128 requires
presentation of earnings per share on a basic computation and a diluted
computation. The basic computation divides net income by only the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding for the year and the diluted
computation gives effect to all diluted common shares that were outstanding
during the year.
Earnings per share amounts for the year 1997 have been restated to give effect
to the application of this new standard.
The following data shows the amounts used in computing earnings per share and
the effect on income and the weighted average number of shares of dilutive
potential common stock.

(3) Merger
On June 30, 1998, Eagle Bank and Trust signed an Agreement and Plan of Merger
with PAB Bankshares, Inc. PAB Bankshares, Inc. is a multibank holding company
for the Park Avenue Bank located in Valdosta, Georgia, Farmers and Merchants
Bank in Adel, Georgia, and First Community Bank of Southwest Georgia in
Bainbridge, Georgia. This merger would result in PAB Bankshares, Inc. acquiring
all of Eagle Bank and Trust's outstanding stock in a business combination
accounted for as a pooling of interest. The merger would constitute a tax-free
reorganization within the meaning of section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986, as amended (the "code"). Upon consummation of this merger, which is
subject to regulatory and shareholder approvals, shareholders of Eagle Bank and
Trust would receive one(1) share of stock in PAB Bankshares, Inc. in exchange
for each share of Eagle Bancorp, Inc. stock.
(4) Year 2000
The banking industry relies on the validity of financial information, most of
which is generated and maintained by automated data processing systems. Eagle
Bancorp, Inc. directors and management have formed a Year 2000 Committee which
is charged with administering the phases of awareness, assessment, renovation,
validation and implementation which are required to ensure Year 2000 compliance
throughout the organization in a timely manner. The year 2000 committee meets on
a monthly basis and reports monthly to the Board of Directors of the Bank. All
information and environmental systems have been examined by internal and
external technical support. The Committee has contacted all vendors and
supplies. Approximately 60% of the PC's have been replaced with an additional
30% to be replaced during the third quarter of 1998 the other 10% are already
compliant. The committee also contacted all major loan customers. The committee
is of the opinion that the cost of becoming Year 2000 compliant in a timely
manner will not have a material adverse impact on the operating results or
financial condition of the company.
(5) Accounting Change
Effective January 1, 1998, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprensive Income". This statement establishes
standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components
in the financial statements. Comprehensive income is defined as the change in
equity of a business enterprise during the period from transactions and other
events and circumstances from nonowner sources.

Item 2.
Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operations
GENERAL
The following is a discussion of the Company's financial condition at June 30,
1998 compared to December 31, 1997, and the results of its operations for the
three and six month periods ended June 30, 1998 compared to the comparable
periods ended June 30, 1997. This discussion of the Company's financial
condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the
Company's unaudited consolidated financial statements appearing elsewhere in
this report and the Company's 1997 Annual Report on Form 10-KSB as filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Eagle Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") is a one-bank holding company providing a
full range of banking services to individual and corporate customers in Bulloch
County and surrounding areas through its wholly-owned bank subsidiary, Eagle
Bank and Trust (the "Bank"). The Bank operates under a state charter granted by
the Georgia Department of Banking and Finance (the "GDBF") and serves its
customers from its two banking facilities in Statesboro, Georgia.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
During the first six months of 1998, total assets increased $2,210,466 or
Approximately 3.33% (6.66% per annum) as compared to amounts at December 31,
1997. This increase was a result of the bank's deposit base increasing by
approximately $547,800 and borrowings increase of $1,802,659. The Bank's asset
mix changed primarily by an increase in loans of $1,360,537 or approximately
2.74% when compared to the December 31, 1997 levels. This increase in loans was
primarily funded by the increase in deposits and borrowings. The following is a
summary of the Company's deposits by type at June 30, 1998 and December 31,
1997:

</TABLE>
Page 8
FINANCIAL CONDITION
The Company's rate of growth of approximately 3.3% (6.6% per annum) for the
first half of 1998 approximates half the 6.1% (12.2% per annum) growth that the
Company achieved for the first half of 1997. Factors expected to contribute to a
continuation of the Company's growth rate include:
1) the current loan and deposit rate environment in the local area and the
bank's community involvement
2) a relatively stable economy in the local area, and
3) management's emphasis on profitability.
The Company believes it can continue to achieve growth for 1998 in the 8% range.
LIQUIDITY AND INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY
Liquidity management involves the matching of cash flow requirements of
customers, those of depositors withdrawing or depositing funds and borrowers
needing loans, and the ability of the Company to meet those requirements.
Management monitors and maintains appropriate levels of assets and liabilities
so maturities of assets are such that adequate funds are provided to meet
estimated customer withdrawals and loan fundings.
The Company's liquidity position depends primarily upon the liquidity of its
assets relative to its needs to respond to short-term demand for funds caused by
withdrawals from deposit accounts and loan funding commitments. Primary sources
of liquidity are scheduled payments on the Company's loans and interest on and
maturities of its investments. The Company may also utilize its cash and due
from banks, federal funds sold and investment securities available for sale to
meet liquidity requirements. At June 30, 1998, the Company's cash and due from
banks equaled $2,736,848, its investment securities available for sale equaled
$7,990,926. All of these assets could be converted to cash on short notice.
Subject to certain conditions, the Company also has the ability, on a short-term
basis, to purchase federal funds from other financial institutions. Presently,
the Company has made arrangements with certain banks for short-term unsecured
advances up to $2,000,000 and with the Federal Home Loan Bank, Atlanta, Ga. for
a secured credit line of $7,000,000. During the first six months of 1998, the
Company had outstanding borrowings of $3,796,166 of a short and long-term basis
from the Federal Home Loan Bank to match loan funding rates and maturities with
loan borrowing rates and maturities. Securities sold under repurchase agreements
are treated as financing activities and are carried at the amounts at which the
securities will be subsequently reacquired as specified in the agreements.
The Company's liquidity position, calculated as cash and due from banks, federal
funds sold, and investment securities not pledged divided by deposits, equaled
28.44% as of June 30, 1998 compared to 22.15% as of June 30, 1997. The Company's
optimum liquidity ratio is 30% with a minimum acceptable ratio of 20%.
Management monitors liquidity daily and is striving to maintain its liquidity
ratio between 20% and 30%.
The Company continues to monitor the percentage of certificates of deposit of
$100 thousand and over (jumbo deposits) to total deposits. A substantial portion
of theses jumbo deposits are with individuals who reside in the Company's
primary service area who are either shareholders, organizers, or directors of
the Company and whom the Bank has had consistent deposit relations since
inception.
Page 9
The relative interest rate sensitivity of the Company's assets and liabilities
indicates the extent to which the Company's net interest income may be affected
by interest rate movements. The Company's ability to reprice assets and
liabilities in the same dollar amounts and at the same time minimizes interest
rate risks. One method of measuring the impact of interest rate changes on net
income is to measure, in a number of time frames, the interest sensitivity gap,
by subtracting interest-sensitive liabilities from interest-sensitive assets, as
reflected in the following table. Such interest sensitivity gap represents the
risk, or opportunity, in repricing. If more assets than liabilities are repriced
at a given time in a rising rate environment, net interest income improves; in a
declining rate environment, net interest income deteriorates. Conversely, if
more liabilities than assets are repriced while interest rates are rising, net
interest income deteriorates; if interest rates are falling, net interest income
improves. The Company's strategy in minimizing interest rate risk is to minimize
the impact of short term interest rate movements on its net interest income
while managing its middle and long-term interest sensitivity gap in light of
overall economic trends in interest rates. The following table illustrates the
relative sensitivity of the Company to changing interest rates as of June 30,
1998.

Since all interest rates and yields do not adjust at the same velocity, the

interest rate changes on net interest income.

CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company continues to maintain a satisfactory level of capital as measured by
its total shareholders' equity to total assets ratio of 10.18% at June 30, 1998
and at December 31, 1997. Management anticipates the existing capital levels
will be adequate to sustain the Company's anticipated growth for the foreseeable
future.
The Company is not aware of any recommendations by regulatory authorities which,
if implemented would have a significant impact on its liquidity, capital
resources, or operations except for the recent FDIC reduction in insurance
premiums on deposits which has had a favorable impact on the Company's results
of operations.
The Georgia Department of Banking and Finance requires that State chartered
banks in Georgia maintain a ratio of primary capital, as defined, to total
assets of not less than 6%. The Company intends to maintain a satisfactory level
of capital necessary to satisfy regulatory requirements and to accommodate
expected growth patterns.
The following table compares the Company's and its subsidiary's capital ratios
to the minimum capital ratios required to be maintained under applicable
regulatory guidelines at June 30, 1998.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net interest income for the three month period ended June 30, 1998 equaled
$701,603 or 5.48% more than the three month period ending June 30, 1997 of
$665,137. The average yield earned on interest-earning assets decreased to 8.69%
for the three month period ended June 30, 1998 from 9.02% for the similar three
month period ended June, 30, 1997 and the average rate paid on interest-bearing
liabilities decreased to 4.47% for the three month period ended June 30, 1998
from 4.97% for the comparable period ended June 30, 1997. The Company's net
interest margin for the three month period ended June 30, 1998 was 4.43%
compared to 4.73% for the comparable period ended June 30, 1997.
Net interest income for the six month period ended June 30, 1998 equaled
$1,371,467 or 6.64% more than the six month period ending June 30, 1997 of

for the period ended June 30, 1997.
Although management continues to explore methods to improve its net interest
margin, there are no assurances that current levels can be maintained due to
market interest rate fluctuations and the very competitive local banking
environment.
Provision for Possible Loan losses
The Company provides for possible loan losses based upon information available
at the end of each period. By evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for
possible loan losses at the end of each period, management maintains the
allowance for possible loan losses at a level adequate to provide for losses
that can reasonably be anticipated. The level of allowance for possible loan
losses is based on management's periodic loan-by-loan evaluation and other
analysis of its loan portfolio, as well as its assessment of prevailing and
anticipated economic conditions in Southeast Georgia.
Page 12
A substantial portion of the Company's loans are secured by real estate,
including real estate and other collateral in Bulloch County and surrounding
counties. Accordingly, the ultimate collectibility of a substantial portion of
the Company's loan portfolio is susceptible to changes in economic conditions in
these market areas.
The allowance for possible loan losses approximated 1.43% of outstanding loans
at June 30, 1998 and at December 31, 1997. The allowance increased to $728,500
at June 30, 1998 from $706,237 at December 31, 1997. The allowance relates
primarily to the level of the loan portfolio and related credit risks. The
provision for the first six months of 1998 was $32,332 compared to $41,000 for
the first six months of 1997. The provision for the three months ended June 30,
1998 was $17,332 as compared to $35,000 for the same period ended June 30, 1997.
Net chargeoffs for the six month period ended June 30, 1998 equaled $10,069
compared to net recoveries of $9,203 for the comparable period in 1997.
The following table summarizes nonperforming loans, potential problem loans, and
allowance for possible loan losses data as of June 30, 1998 and December 31,
