CENIT BANCORP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
_____________________________________________________________________________
Note 1 - Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have
been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and,
therefore, do not include all of the disclosures and notes required
by generally accepted accounting principles. In the opinion of the
management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring
accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been
included. The results of operations for the three and six month
periods ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 are not necessarily indicative
of results that may be expected for the entire year or any interim
periods. Certain previously reported amounts have been
reclassified to agree with the current presentation. The interim
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
December 31, 1995 consolidated financial statements of CENIT
Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company").
Note 2 - Earnings and Dividends Per Share
Earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30,
1996 are determined by dividing income for the periods by 1,673,793
and 1,676,998, respectively, the weighted average number of shares
of common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding. Earnings
per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 1995 are
determined by dividing income for the periods by 1,674,834 and
1,667,259, respectively, the weighted average number of shares of
common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding. Stock
options and warrants are regarded as common stock equivalents and
are therefore considered in earnings per share calculations, if
dilutive. Common stock equivalents are computed using the treasury
stock method. There is no material difference between primary and
fully-diluted earnings per share. Dividends per share for 1995
were determined by dividing historical dividends declared by the
Company by historical common shares outstanding of the Company,
without adjustment for shares issued in connection with the
Princess Anne Bank ("Princess Anne") merger. Princess Anne
declared no dividends in 1995 prior to its merger with the Company.
Item 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations
General
The Company's business currently consists of the business of
CENIT Bank, FSB ("CENIT Bank") and Princess Anne (the "Banks").
The principal business of the Banks consists of attracting retail
deposits from the general public in their market areas through a
variety of deposit products and investing these funds primarily in
their market areas in residential mortgage loans, commercial real
estate loans, construction loans, land acquisition and development
loans, consumer loans, and commercial business loans. The Banks
also invest in mortgage-backed certificates, securities issued by
the U.S. Government and federal agencies and other investments
permitted by applicable laws and regulations.
On July 3, 1996, the Company announced that CENIT Bank and Essex
Savings Bank, FSB, had executed a definitive agreement pursuant to
which CENIT Bank will assume the deposits of five Essex Bank
branches located in Hampton, Newport News, Portsmouth, Norfolk, and
Grafton, Virginia. CENIT Bank will operate the branches located in
Hampton and Newport News. The branches located in Norfolk and
Portsmouth will be consolidated into existing CENIT Bank branches
located in those neighborhoods. The Grafton branch will either be
sold to another financial institution or will be closed and the
deposits transferred to another CENIT Bank branch.
This transaction will be accounted for by the purchase method of
accounting and is expected to close in the fall of 1996 following
the receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals. CENIT Bank
intends to invest the proceeds received in mortgage-backed
certificates and/or residential mortgage loans.
At June 30, 1996, the five Essex Bank branches had total deposits
of $69.9 million, including $5.3 million at the Grafton location.
Of the total deposits, $9.9 million represented balances equal to
or greater than $95,000. The $69.9 million of deposits were
comprised of $56.6 million of certificate of deposit accounts with
a weighted average cost of 5.91% and a weighted average remaining
maturity of 15 months at June 30, 1996, and $13.3 million of money
market deposit, passbook, and checking accounts with an average
cost of 3.67% at June 30, 1996.

Financial Condition Of The Company
Total Assets
At June 30, 1996, the Company had total assets of $655.8 million,
an increase of $16.0 million, or 2.5%, since December 31, 1995.
This increase is accounted for primarily by the Company's purchase
of additional adjustable rate mortgage-backed certificates.
Securities Available for Sale
Securities available for sale totaled $227.8 million at June 30,
1996 and are comprised of U. S. Treasury securities, other U. S.
Government agency securities, and mortgage-backed certificates.
The net increase of $9.5 million from December 31, 1995 resulted
primarily from $48.8 million in adjustable rate mortgage-backed
certificate purchases, $39.9 million of mortgage-backed certificate
repayments, $12.1 million of U.S. Treasury and other U.S.
Government agency securities purchases, and $8.0 million of
proceeds from the maturities of securities.
Loans
The balance of net loans held for investment decreased slightly
from $319.2 million at December 31, 1995 to $318.1 million at June
30, 1996. For the six months ended June 30, 1996, loan
originations totaled $83.3 million, loan purchases totaled $3.8
million, and total principal reductions totaled $84.0 million.

with the exception of certain VA-guaranteed or FHA insured one- to
four-family permanent mortgage loans, certain credit card loans,
and matured loans for which the borrowers are still making required
monthly payments of interest, or principal and interest, and with
respect to which the Banks are negotiating extensions or
refinancings with the borrowers.

The increase in nonperforming assets from December 31, 1995 to
June 30, 1996 related primarily to a $483,000 nonaccrual commercial
real estate loan. The Company believes that foreclosure is highly
probable.

same period in 1995. This decrease is a result of the continued
reduction in losses charged against the allowance. At June 30,
1996, the Company's coverage ratio was 234.7% based on a total
allowance for loan losses of $3,770,000 and total nonperforming
loans of $1,606,000. This compares to a coverage ratio of 172.9%
at June 30, 1995.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended June 30, 1996
and June 30, 1995.
General
The Company's pre-tax income for the three months ended June 30,
1996 was $1,880,000 compared to $1,357,000 during the same period
in the prior year. This increase is primarily attributable to a
$262,000 increase in net interest income, a $136,000 decrease in
the provision for loan losses and a $156,000 increase in other
income, the effect of which more than offset a $31,000 increase in
other expenses.
Net Interest Income
The Company's net interest income before provision for loan
losses increased by $262,000, or 5.7%, for the quarter ended June
30, 1996 as compared to that of the previous year. This increase
resulted primarily from a $234,000 increase in interest income.
The increase in interest income was primarily attributable to an
increase in the average balance and yield of mortgage-backed
certificates.
Interest on the Company's portfolio of mortgage-backed
certificates increased by approximately $669,000 from $2.8 million
for the quarter ended June 30, 1995 to $3.4 million for the
comparable 1996 period. This increase resulted from both a $34.4
million increase in the average balance of the portfolio and an
increase in the average yield of the portfolio from 6.29% in the
quarter ended June 30, 1995 to 6.53% in the comparable 1996 period.
The increase in the yield on mortgage-backed certificates occurred
because certificates backed by adjustable-rate mortgage loans
("ARMs") adjusted to higher rates and as a result of the sale of
lower yielding mortgage-backed certificates during the fourth
quarter of 1995 and the subsequent purchase of higher yielding
adjustable mortgage-backed certificates.
Interest on loans decreased by $472,000 in the quarter ended June
30, 1996 compared to the comparable 1995 period. This decrease was
attributable to a decrease in the average yield of the portfolio
from 9.07% in the quarter ended June 30, 1995, to 8.70% in the
comparable 1996 period and to a $7.8 million decrease in the
average balance of loans.
Interest on deposits decreased by $206,000 in the quarter ended
June 30, 1996 compared to the comparable 1995 period. This
decrease was primarily attributable to a $4.8 million decrease in
the average balance of certificates of deposit in the quarter ended
June 30, 1996 compared to the comparable 1995 period and a decrease
in the average cost of certificates of deposit from 5.41% in the
quarter ended June 30, 1995 to 5.32% in the comparable 1996 period.
The Company's interest on borrowings increased by $178,000 in the
quarter ended June 30, 1996 compared to the comparable 1995 period.
This increase was attributable to a $11.1 million increase in the
average balance of securities sold under agreements to repurchase.
The Company's net interest margin increased from 3.12% for the
quarter ended June 30, 1995 to 3.16% for the quarter ended June 30,
1996. This increase was the result of an increase in the Company's
interest rate spread from 2.68% in the quarter ended June 30, 1995
to 2.76% in the comparable 1996 period. The Company's calculations
of interest rate spread and net interest rate margin include
nonaccrual loans as interest-earning assets.
Provision for Loan Losses
The Company's provision for loan losses decreased by $136,000 to
$53,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1996, compared to the
same period in 1995. This decrease is a result of the continued
reduction in losses charged against the allowance.
Other Income
Total other income increased from $825,000 in the quarter ended
June 30, 1995 to $981,000 in the comparable 1996 period. A $85,000
increase in the gain on sale of loans, a $46,000 increase in
deposit fees, and a $32,000 gain on the sale of available for sale
securities were the primary reasons for the increase in other
income. Other miscellaneous income increased by $11,000 primarily
as a result of a $77,000 increase in merchant processing income and
a $71,000 increase in brokerage fees recognized by CENIT Bank's
commercial brokerage subsidiary, the effects of which were
partially offset by a $156,000 nonrecurring gain on the sale of
property recognized in the 1995 period.
14
Other Expenses
Total other expenses increased by $31,000 for the quarter ended
June 30, 1996 compared to the comparable 1995 period. Expenses,
gains/losses, and provision for losses on real estate owned
decreased by $298,000 from $291,000 in the quarter ended June 30,
1995 to net income of $7,000 in the comparable 1996 period. In the
1995 period, the provision for losses on REO totaled $153,000, net
losses on sales totaled $68,000 and net holding costs totaled
$70,000. This compares to net gains on sales of $24,000 and net
holding costs of $17,000 in the 1996 period. There were no
provisions for losses on REO in the 1996 period. Professional fees
decreased by $85,000 largely due to decreases in legal and
consulting expenses. Equipment, data processing, and supplies
expense decreased by $53,000 primarily as a result in overall
decreases in equipment and data processing costs. Salaries and
employee benefits increased by $225,000 primarily due to a $49,000
increase in commissions relating to CENIT Bank's commercial
mortgage loan subsidiary and increases in wages and directors'
fees. Net occupancy expense of premises increased by $92,000
primarily as a result of incremental costs associated with Princess
Anne's relocation of its Great Neck office, CENIT Bank's opening of
a new Kiln Creek and a Super Kmart office, and CENIT Bank's
relocation of its Main Street office. Other miscellaneous expenses
increased by $156,000 primarily as a result of a $62,000 increase
in merchant processing expenses and increases in advertising and
loan processing expenses relating to an equity loan promotion.
Comparison of Operating Results for the Six Months Ended
June 30, 1996 and June 30, 1995.
General
The Company's pre-tax income for the six months ended June 30,
1996 was $3,729,000 compared to $2,729,000 during the same period
in the prior year. This increase is primarily attributable to a
$641,000 increase in net interest income, a $204,000 decrease in
the provision for loan losses and a $429,000 increase in other
income, the effect of which more than offset a $274,000 increase in
other expenses.
Net Interest Income
The Company's net interest income before provision for loan
losses increased by $641,000, or 7.1%, for the six months ended
June 30, 1996 as compared to that of the previous year. This
increase resulted from a $1,387,000 increase in interest income,
which exceeded a $746,000 increase in interest expense. The
increase in interest income was primarily attributable to an
increase in the average balance and yield of mortgage-backed
certificates. The increase in interest expense was primarily
attributable to an increase in the average balance and average cost
of certificates of deposit.
Interest on the Company's portfolio of mortgage-backed
certificates increased by approximately $1,556,000 from $5.4
million for the six months ended June 30, 1995 to $6.9 million for
the comparable 1996 period. This increase resulted from both a
$35.8 million increase in the average balance of the portfolio and
an increase in the average yield of the portfolio from 6.19% in the
six months ended June 30, 1995 to 6.61% in the comparable 1996
period. The increase in the yield on mortgage-backed certificates
occurred because certificates backed by ARMs adjusted to higher
rates and as a result of the sale of lower yielding mortgage-backed
certificates during the fourth quarter of 1995 and the subsequent
purchase of higher yielding adjustable rate mortgage-backed
certificates.
Interest on loans decreased by $371,000 in the six months ended
June 30, 1996 compared to the comparable 1995 period. This
decrease was attributable to both a decrease in the average yield
of the portfolio from 8.88% in the quarter ended June 30, 1995 to
8.73% in the comparable 1996 period and to a $3.0 million decrease
in the average balance of loans.
Interest on deposits increased by $410,000 in the six months
ended June 30, 1996 compared to the comparable 1995 period. This
increase was primarily attributable to a $7.0 million increase in
the average balance of certificates of deposit in the six months
ended June 30, 1996 compared to the comparable 1995 period and an
increase in the average cost of certificates of deposit from 5.17%
in the six months ended June 30, 1995 to 5.41% in the comparable
1996 period.
15
The Company's interest on borrowings increased by $336,000 in the
six months ended June 30, 1996 compared to the comparable 1995
period. This increase was attributable to a $6.6 million increase
in the average balance of securities sold under agreements to
repurchase and to a $29.2 million increase in the average balance
of Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta ("FHLB") advances, the effect
of which was partially offset by a decrease in the average cost of
FHLB advances from 6.29% in the six months ended June 30, 1995 to
5.31% in the comparable 1996 period.
The Company's net interest margin increased from 3.14% for the
six months ended June 30, 1995 to 3.17% for the six months ended
June 30, 1996. This increase was the result of an increase in the
Company's interest rate spread from 2.72% in the six months ended
June 30, 1995 to 2.78% in the comparable 1996 period. The
Company's calculations of interest rate spread and net interest
rate margin include nonaccrual loans as interest-earning assets.
Provision for Loan Losses
The Company's provision for loan losses decreased by $204,000 to
$155,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1996, compared to the
same period in 1995. This decrease is a result of the continued
reduction in losses charged against the allowance.
Other Income
Total other income increased from $1,448,000 in the six months
ended June 30, 1995 to $1,877,000 in the comparable 1996 period. A
$214,000 increase in the gain on sale of loans, a $162,000 increase
in miscellaneous other income, and a $69,000 increase in deposit
fees were the primary reasons for the increase in other income.
Other miscellaneous income increased by $162,000 primarily as a
result of a $194,000 increase in brokerage fees recognized by CENIT
Bank's commercial brokerage subsidiary and a $112,000 increase in
merchant processing income, the effects of which were partially
offset by a $156,000 nonrecurring gain on the sale of property
recognized in the 1995 period.
Other Expenses
Total other expenses increased by $274,000 for the six months
ended June 30, 1996 compared to the comparable 1995 period.
Salaries and employee benefits increased by $371,000 primarily due
to a $95,000 increase in commissions relating to CENIT Bank's
commercial mortgage loan subsidiary and overall increases in wages
and directors' fees. Net occupancy expense of premises increased
by $187,000 primarily as a result of incremental costs associated
with CENIT Bank's opening of a new Kiln Creek and a Super Kmart
office, Princess Anne's relocation of its Great Neck office and
CENIT Bank's relocation of its Main Street office. Other
miscellaneous expenses increased by $179,000 primarily as a result
of a $96,000 increase in merchant processing expenses and increases
in advertising and loan processing expenses relating to an equity
loan promotion. The impact of these increases was partially offset
by a $235,000 decrease in expenses, gains/losses, and provision for
losses on real estate owned. In the 1995 period, the provision for
losses on REO totaled $153,000, net gains on sales totaled $96,000
and net holding costs totaled $184,000. This compares to net gains
on sales of $24,000 and net holding costs of $30,000 in the 1996
period. There were no provisions for losses on REO in the 1996
period. Professional fees also decreased by $194,000 largely due
to decreases in legal and consulting expenses.
Liquidity
The principal sources of funds for the Company for the six months
ended June 30, 1996 included $939.1 million in proceeds from FHLB
advances, $39.9 million in principal payments of mortgage-backed
certificates, and $28.8 million in proceeds from the sale of loans.
Funds were used primarily to repay FHLB advances totaling $912.1
million, to fund purchases of investment securities available for
sale totaling $60.9 million, and to fund a net decrease in deposits
of $13.1 million.
The Company's liquidity could be impacted by a decrease in the
renewals of deposits or general deposit runoff. However, the
Company has the ability to raise deposits by conducting deposit
promotions. In the event the Company requires funds beyond its
ability to generate them internally, the Company could obtain
additional advances from the FHLB. The Company could also obtain
funds through the sale of investment securities from its available
for sale portfolio.
16
CENIT Bank is required to maintain specific levels of liquid
investments. Current regulations require CENIT Bank to maintain
liquid assets, which include short-term assets such as cash,
certain time deposits and bankers' acceptances, short-term U.S.
Treasury obligations, and mortgage-backed certificates with final
maturities of five years or less, as well as certain long-term
assets, equal to not less than 5.0% of its net withdrawable
accounts plus short-term borrowings. CENIT Bank has generally
maintained regulatory liquidity in excess of its required levels.
CENIT Bank's liquidity ratio was 12.0% and 9.6% at June 30, 1996
and December 31, 1995, respectively.
On July 23, 1996, the Company purchased $44.2 million of
residential permanent 1- to 4-family loans with an approximate
average yield of 7.50%. This purchase will be funded primarily
with short-term FHLB advances and with proceeds from the sale of
approximately $15.0 million of available for sale securities.
