NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note 1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements (except for the
statement of financial condition at December 31, 1998, which is audited) have
been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
interim financial information, with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation
S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes
required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial
statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (none of which were
other than normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the
financial position and results of operations for the periods presented have been
included. The results of operations for the six month period ended June 30, 1999
are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be expected
for the year ended December 31, 1999.
The accounting policies followed are as set forth in Note 1 of the Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements in the 1998 KS Bancorp, Inc. annual report.
Note 2. Allowance for Loan Losses
The Bank's allowance for loan losses increased by the related provision charged
to operations of $20,000 and $12,000 during the three and six month periods
ended June 30, 1999. The provision for the same three and six month periods
ended June 30, 1998 was $5,000 and $19,500, respectively. The Bank did not incur
any loan charge-offs or recoveries during these periods. The allowance at June
30, 1999 was $390,867 and the Bank's ratio of nonperforming assets to total
assets was .47%.
Note 3. Earnings Per Share (EPS)
The Bank adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 128
during the year ended December 31, 1997. This statement requires dual
presentation of basic and diluted EPS with a reconciliation of the numerator and
denominator of the EPS computations. Basic earnings per share amounts are based
on the weighted average shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted earnings per
share assume the conversion, exercise or issuance of all potential common stock
instruments such as options, warrants and convertible securities, unless the
effect is to reduce a loss or increase earnings per share. Accordingly, this
presentation has been adopted for all periods presented. There were no
adjustments required to net income for all periods presented in the computation
of diluted earnings per share. The basic and diluted weighted average shares
outstanding for the three and six month periods are as follows:

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This Form 10-Q contains certain forward-looking statements consisting of
estimates with respect to the financial condition, results of operations and
other business of KS Bancorp, Inc. that are subject to various factors which
could cause actual results to differ materially from those estimates. Factors
which could influence the estimates include changes in general and local market
conditions, legislative and regulatory conditions and an adverse interest rate
environment.
The following discussion and analysis is intended to assist readers in
understanding the results of operations and changes in financial position for
the quarter and six months ended June 30, 1999 of KS Bancorp, Inc. (the
Corporation) and its wholly owned subsidiary, KS Bank, Inc. (the Bank). This
overview should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
statements.
Overview of Results
Total assets increased by $4.8 million during the six month period ended June
30, 1999 primarily as a result of an increase in the Bank's loan portfolio which
was funded primarily through increased deposits of $4.8 million. Earnings for
the period totaled approximately $645,000.
Loans increased by $1.4 million during the three month period ended June 30,
1999, primarily as a result of an increase in loan originations during the
quarter brought about by a continued strong loan demand in the Bank's primary
lending areas. The Bank originated these loans for its portfolio. In addition,
the Bank began originating loans to be sold on the secondary market during 1998.
At December 31, 1998 there was $855,500 in loans held for sale. During the
second quarter of 1999, the Bank sold all of those loans and held $70,000 for
sale at June 30, 1999.
Investment securities and short-term interest-bearing deposits, increased
slightly during the second quarter and amounted to $21.3 million at June 30,
1999. The market value of the Corporation's available for sale securities
decreased by approximately $71,000 during the quarter, primarily as a result of
movements in market interest rates. At June 30, 1999, the Corporation's
available for sale portfolio had securities with unrealized gains of
approximately $1,449,000. During the quarter, the Corporation received proceeds
from sales and maturities of investments totaling $731,000, and purchased
investments totaling approximately $3.0 million.
The Corporation's annualized return on assets for the three and six month
periods ended, June 30, 1999 was .96% and .95%, respectively. For the same
periods in 1998, the annualized return was 1.02% and .94%, respectively. The
Corporation's annualized return on equity for the three and six month periods
ended June 30, 1999 was 8.27% and 8.17%, respectively, compared to 8.69% and
8.01% for the same periods in 1998.
During the second quarter, the Corporation paid a cash dividend of $.20 a share,
amounting to approximately $173,000. At June 30, 1999, the Corporation and the
Bank's capital was significantly in excess of regulatory capital requirements.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Net income for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1999 was $326,275
($.34 per share fully-diluted ) and $644,548 ($.68 per share fully-diluted),
respectively. Net interest income for the three month period ended June 30, 1999
was approximately $126,000 higher than the comparable period of 1998. For the
six months period ended June 30, 1999, net interest income amounted to
approximately $2,359,000, an increase of $203,000 from the approximately
$2,156,000 reported for the six months ended June 30, 1998. The increase in net
interest income is primarily attributable to a small increase in the interest
rate spread in effect during the periods, and a change in the mix of
interest-earning assets favoring loans receivable instead of investment
securities. The yield on loans receivable is typically higher than the yield on
investment securities.
Noninterest expense increased by approximately $120,000 during the three month
period ended June 30, 1999 versus the comparable period in 1998. For the six
months period ended June 30, 1999, noninterest expense amounted to approximately
$1,458,000, an increase of $171,000 from the approximately $1,287,000 reported
for the six months ended June 30, 1998. The primary reason for the overall
increase was due to increased levels of compensation and other expenses
associated with the operations of the new loan production office and
full-service branch.
Asset Quality
Nonperforming assets, which consist of nonaccrual loans, amounted to
approximately $640,000 and $291,000 at June 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998,
respectively. The ratio of nonperforming assets to total assets at June 30, 1999
and December 31, 1998 was .47% and .22%, respectively. Based on management's
analysis of the adequacy of its allowances at June 30, 1999, a provision for
loan losses was made of $32,000 during the six months ended June 30, 1999.
Provisions which are charged to operations, and the resulting loan loss
allowances are amounts the Bank's management believes will be adequate to absorb
losses on existing loans that may become uncollectible. Loans are charged off
against the allowance when management believes that collectibility is unlikely.
The evaluation to increase or decrease the provision and resulting allowances is
based both on prior loan loss experience and other factors, such as changes in
the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, overall portfolio quality, and
current economic conditions.
The allowance for loan losses amounted to approximately $391,000 at June 30,
1999 and is considered adequate by management to absorb existing losses, either
known or as yet undetected.
Liquidity
The term "liquidity" generally refers to an organization's ability to generate
adequate amounts of funds to meet its needs for cash. More specifically for
financial institutions, liquidity ensures that adequate funds are available to
meet deposit withdrawals, fund loan and capital expenditure commitments,
maintain reserve requirements, pay operating expenses, and provide funds for
debt service and other institutional commitments. Funds are primarily provided
through financial resources from operating activities, expansion of the deposit
base, borrowings, through the sale or maturity of investments, or maintenance of
shorter term interest-bearing deposits.

The Bank is required by regulations to maintain liquid assets, essentially cash,
short-term interest bearing deposits, substantially all investments, and
mortgage-backed securities, of at least 10% of total assets. A substantial
portion of the Bank's investment portfolio is classified as available for sale,
and liquidation of such portfolio, if need be, would not have accounting
implications on the Corporation's equity under SFAS No. 115. The Bank exceeded
such requirements at June 30, 1999 and management believes that the Bank's
liquidity is adequate to fund all outstanding commitments and other anticipated
cash needs.
Capital Resources and Adequacy
KS Bancorp, Inc's stockholders' equity was $15.8 million, or 11.64% of total
assets at June 30, 1999. As a state chartered stock savings bank, the Bank is
required to meet three separate capital standards as established by the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation and an additional capital requirement established
by the State Administrator of the Savings Institutions Division. The Bank was
substantially in excess of all such capital requirements at June 30, 1999.
Year 2000 Problem. The "Year 2000 Problem" centers on the inability of computer
systems to recognize the Year 2000. Many existing computer programs and systems
were originally programmed with six digit dates that provided only two digits to
identify the calendar year in the date field, without considering the upcoming
change in the century. With the impending millennium, these programs and
computers will recognize "00" as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000. Like
most financial service providers, the Bank and its operations may be affected by
the Year 2000 Problem due to the nature of financial information. Software,
hardware, and equipment both within and outside the Bank's direct control and
with whom the Bank electronically or operationally interfaces (e.g. third party
vendors providing data processing, information system management, maintenance of
computer systems, and credit bureau information) are likely to be affected.
Furthermore, if computer systems are not adequately changed to identify the Year
2000, many computer applications could fail or create erroneous results. As a
result, many calculations which rely on the date field information, such as
interest, payment or due dates and other operating functions, will generate
results which could be significantly misstated, and the Bank could experience a
temporary inability to process transactions, send invoices or engage in similar
normal business activities.
In addition, non-information technology systems, such as telephones and copiers
may also contain embedded technology which controls its operation and which may
be affected by the Year 2000 Problem. When the Year 2000 arrives, systems,
including some of those with embedded chips, may not work properly because of
the way they store date information. They may not be able to deal with the date
01/01/00 and may not be able to deal with operational 'cycles' such as 'do X
every 100 days'. Thus, even non-information technology systems may affect the
normal operations of the Bank upon the arrival of the Year 2000.
Under certain circumstances, failure to adequately address the Year 2000 Problem
could adversely affect the viability of the Bank's suppliers and creditors and
the creditworthiness of its borrowers. Thus, if not adequately addressed, the
Year 2000 Problem could result in a significant adverse impact on the Bank's
products, services and competitive condition.

Year 2000 Problem (Continued)
In order to address the Year 2000 Problem and to minimize its potential adverse
impact, management has begun a process to identify areas that will be affected
by the Year 2000 Problem, assess its potential impact on the operations of the
Bank, monitor the progress of third party software vendors in addressing the
matter, test changes provided by these vendors, and develop contingency plans
for any critical systems which are not effectively reprogrammed. A committee of
senior officers of the Bank has been formed to evaluate the effects that the
upcoming Year 2000 could have on computer programs utilized by the Bank. The
Bank's plan is divided into the five phases:
(1) Awareness. Define the problem, obtain executive level support and
develop an overall strategy. This phase was completed April 1998.
(2) Assessment. Identify all systems and the criticality of the systems.
This phase was completed April 1998.
(3) Renovation. Program enhancements, hardware and software upgrades,
system replacements, and vendor certifications. This phase was
completed May 1999.
(4) Validation. Test and verify system changes and coordinate with outside
parties. This phase was completed June 1999.
(5) Implementation. Components certified as Year 2000 compliant and moved
to production. This phase was completed July 1999.
Third party vendors provide the majority of software used by the Bank. All of
the Bank's vendors are aware of the Year 2000 situation, and each has assured
the Bank that it is currently working to have its software compliant by July
1999, and testing for the critical applications began in April 1998. This will
enable the Bank to devote substantial time to the testing to the upgraded
systems prior to the arrival of the millennium. The Bank utilizes the service of
a third party vendor to provide the software which is used to process and
maintain most mortgage and deposit customer-related accounts. This vendor has
provided the Bank with a software version which has been certified to be Year
2000 compliant. Testing by the Bank is underway to verify compliance for its
application and usage. The Bank presently believes that with modifications to
existing software and conversions to new software, the Year 2000 Problem will be
mitigated without causing an adverse impact on the operations of the Bank.
However, if such modifications and conversions are not made, or are not
completed in a timely manner, the Year 2000 Problem could have an impact on the
operations of the Bank. As a result, a contingency plan has been developed. As
part of that plan, the Bank has developed and tested two different potential
situations, operating without electricity and operating with electricity without
computers. The Bank has created forms and run tests assuming the above and feels
they can operate for 5 days without electricity and 30 days with electricity but
without computers.

Year 2000 Problem (Continued)
In addition, implementing, monitoring and managing the Year 2000 project will
result in additional direct and indirect costs to the Bank. Direct costs include
potential charges by third party software vendors for product enhancements,
costs involved in testing software products for Year 2000 compliance, and any
resulting costs for developing and implementing contingency plans. Indirect
costs will principally consist of the time devoted by existing employees in
monitoring software vendor progress, testing enhanced software products and
implementing any necessary contingency plans. The Bank has spent approximately
$31,000 on Year 2000 related costs to date and estimates that it will spend an
additional $4,000 for Year 2000 compliance. Both direct and indirect costs of
addressing the Year 2000 Problem will be charged to earnings as incurred. The
Bank does not believe that such costs will have a material effect on results of
operations. However, there can be no guarantee that the systems of other
companies on which the Bank's systems rely will be timely converted, or that a
failure to convert by another company or a conversion that is incompatible with
the Bank's systems, would not have material adverse effect on the Bank.
The costs of the project and the date on which the Bank plans to complete the
Year 2000 modifications are based on management's best estimates, which were
derived utilizing numerous assumptions of future events including the continued
availability of certain resources, third party modification plans and other
factors. However, there can be no guarantee that these estimates will be
achieved and actual results could differ from those plans. Specific factors that
might cause such differences include, but are not limited to, the availability
and cost of personnel trained in this area, the ability to locate and correct
all relevant computer codes, and similar uncertainties.
Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices
The financial statements and accompanying footnotes have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, which require the
measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical
dollars without consideration for changes in the relative purchasing power of
money over time due to inflation. The assets and liabilities of KS Bancorp are
primarily monetary in nature and changes in interest rates have a greater impact
on KS Bancorp's performance than do the effects of inflation.
