================================================================================

NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

In management's opinion, the financial information, which is unaudited, reflects
all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) necessary
for a fair presentation of the financial information as of and for the three and
nine month periods ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles. The financial statements include the
accounts of KS Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") and its wholly-owned subsidiary, KS
Bank, Inc. Operating results for the three and nine month periods ended
September 30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2000.

The organization and business of the Company, accounting policies followed by
the Company and other information are contained in the notes to the consolidated
financial statements filed as part of the Company's 1999 annual report on Form
10-K. This quarterly report should be read in conjunction with such annual
report.

NOTE B - NET INCOME PER SHARE

Net income per share has been computed by dividing net income by the weighted
average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the
period. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, employee
stock ownership plan shares are only considered outstanding for the basic
earnings per share calculations when they are earned or committed to be
released. The weighted average number of shares outstanding or assumed to be
outstanding are summarized below:

Item 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
of Operations
-------------

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB may contain certain forward-looking
statements consisting of estimates with respect to the financial condition,
results of operations and business of the Company that are subject to various
factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from these
estimates. These factors include, but are not limited to, general economic
conditions, changes in interest rates, deposit flows, loan demand, real estate
values, and competition; changes in accounting principles, policies, or
guidelines; changes in legislation or regulation; and other economic,
competitive, governmental, regulatory, and technological factors affecting the
Company's operations, pricing, products and services.

Comparison of Financial Condition at September 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999

Consolidated total assets increased by $11.1 million during the nine months
ended September 30, 2000, from $138.9 million at December 31, 1999 to $150.0
million at September 30, 2000. During the nine months, the Company continued to
generate strong loan growth, as net loans increased by $14.5 million to $130.9
million. This loan growth was primarily funded by an increase of $11.0 million
in advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank, with the balance of the funding
provided from liquid assets. In the aggregate, liquid assets decreased from
$18.1 million at December 31, 1999 to $13.8 million at September 30, 2000.

Total stockholders' equity was $15.6 million at September 30, 2000 as compared
with $15.4 million at December 31, 1999, an increase of $170,000. During the
period, the Company repurchased 21,266 shares of common stock under it's stock
repurchase plan for $379,000 and paid regular quarterly dividends of $548,000 or
$.60 per share. Additionally, during the nine month period, accumulated other
comprehensive income, which consists of net unrealized gains and losses on
available for sale investment securities, decreased $735,000 due to the
realization of previously unrealized gains on securities net of a decrease in
the net unrealized loss on securities held throughout the period. These
decreases to stockholders' equity were offset by the Company's net income for
the nine months of $1.8 million and earned ESOP compensation of $36,000, which
was credited to common stock. At September 30, 2000, both the Company and the
Bank continued to significantly exceed all applicable regulatory capital
requirements.

Comparison of Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended September 30,
2000 and 1999

Net Income. Net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2000 was $1.1
million, or $1.27 per share, as compared with net income of $374,000, or $.43
per share, for the three months ended September 30, 1999, an increase of
$745,000 or $.84 per share. This increase resulted principally from the gain on
sale of investments discussed in the Other Income caption below.

2000 was $1.3 million as compared with $1.2 million during the quarter ended
September 30, 1999, an increase of $64,000. This increase resulted principally
from an increased level of interest earning assets during the current quarter,
primarily loans, which have higher yields than do other types of interest
earning assets.

Provision for Loan Losses. The provision for loan losses was $54,000 for the
quarter ended September 30, 2000 while there were net loan charge-offs of
$14,000. There was no provision for loan losses and only minimal net loan
charge-offs during the quarter ended September 30, 1999. At September 30, 2000,
non-accrual loans aggregated $452,000, while the allowance for loan losses stood
at $441,000.

September 30, 2000 as compared with $740,000 for the quarter ended September 30,

subsequent to the quarter ended September 30, 1999.

income before income taxes, was 37.9% and 34.2% for the three months ended

2000 was $3.9 million as compared with $3.6 million during the nine months ended

for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. There were

ended September 30, 2000 as compared with $2.2 million for the nine months ended

additions were made subsequent to the nine-month period ended September 30,
1999. Other operational and facility costs experienced increases associated with
the Company's continued growth.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The objective of the Company's liquidity management is to ensure the
availability of sufficient cash flows to meet all financial commitments and to
capitalize on opportunities for expansion. Liquidity management addresses KS
Bank's ability to meet deposit withdrawals on demand or at contractual maturity,
to repay borrowings as they mature, and to fund new loans and investments as
opportunities arise.

The primary sources of internally generated funds are principal and interest
payments on loans receivable and cash flows generated from operations. External
sources of funds include increases in deposits and advances from the FHLB of
Atlanta.

As a North Carolina-chartered savings bank, KS Bank must maintain liquid assets
equal to at least 10% of assets. The computation of liquidity under North
Carolina regulations allows the inclusion of mortgage-backed securities and
investments with readily marketable value, including investments with maturities
in excess of five years. KS Bank's liquidity ratio at September 30, 2000, as
computed under North Carolina regulations, was approximately 9.2%. On a
consolidated basis, liquid assets also represent approximately 9.2% of total
assets. Management believes that it will have sufficient funds available to meet
its anticipated future loan commitments as well as other liquidity needs.

As a North Carolina-chartered savings bank, KS Bank is subject to the capital
requirements of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") and the North
Carolina Administrator of Savings Institutions ("N. C. Administrator"). The FDIC
requires state-chartered savings banks to have a minimum leverage ratio of Tier
I capital (principally consisting of common shareholders' equity, noncumulative
perpetual preferred stock, and a limited amount of cumulative perpetual
preferred stock, less certain intangible assets) to total assets of at least 3%;
provided, however, that all institutions, other than those (i) receiving the
highest rating during the examination process and (ii) not anticipating or
experiencing any significant growth, are required to maintain a ratio of 1% or
2% above the stated minimum. The FDIC also requires KS Bank to have a ratio of
total capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 8%, of which at least 4% must
be comprised of Tier I capital. The N. C. Administrator requires a net worth
equal to at least 5% of total assets. At September 30, 2000, KS Bank exceeded
the capital requirements of both the FDIC and the N. C. Administrator.
