maturing in January, 1998. At December 31, 1996, advances
from the FHLB of Atlanta totaled $8.5 million.
These advances are made under a credit availability agreement
with the FHLB of Atlanta totaling $25 million. The agreement
does not have a maturity date and advances are made at the FHLB
of Atlanta's discretion.
NOTE 6 - STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
At March 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996, the Bancorp had
15,634 shares of 6% cumulative convertible
PAGE 9
preferred stock issued and outstanding. Par value is $0.01 per
share. Five hundred thousand shares are authorized. Each share of
the Bancorp's preferred stock is convertible to 1.61 shares of
common stock. The preferred stock has an annual dividend rate of
6%. Dividends are payable quarterly and are cumulative.
At March 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996, the Bancorp had
1,594,122 shares of common stock issued and 1,564,248 shares of
common stock outstanding. The par value is $0.01 per share.
There were 5,000,000 shares authorized by the Bancorp's charter.
The Bancorp's board of directors declared a 10 percent stock
dividend in July, 1996. Prior period earnings per share amounts
have been restated to reflect the effect of this dividend.
PAGE 10
Financial Condition
The total assets of Southern Financial Bancorp, Inc. (the
"Bancorp") at March 31, 1997 were $198.9 million, an increase of
$8.1 million, or 4.2%, from total assets of $190.8 million at December
31, 1996. Total liabilities increased by $7.7 million, or 4.4%, to
$182.1 million at March 31, 1997 from $174.4 million at December
31, 1996.
The increase in total assets resulted from increases of $2.9 million
in total loans receivable and $4.9 million in investment securities (held-
to-maturity) from December 31, 1996 to March 31, 1997.
Although total loans receivable increased by $2.9 million, or
2.7%, to $111.2 million at March 31, 1997 from $108.3 million at
December 31, 1996, a shift occurred in the composition of the
categories. The principal changes were an increase in non-residential
permanent loans of $2.6 million, an increase in non-mortgage business
loans of $1.3 million and a decrease in residential construction loans of
$1.6 million, reflecting a change in emphasis on the part of the
Bancorp from residential mortgage lending to business lending.
Investment securities available-for-sale remained constant at $5.1
million at March 31, 1997, as compared to December 31, 1996. At
March 31, 1997 investment securities available-for-sale consisted
entirely of Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation ("FHLMC")
preferred stock and 15 year Federal National Mortgage Association
(FNMA) mortgage backed securities and were recorded at current
market value. Investment securities held-to-maturity increased by $4.9
million, or 7.5%, to $70.1 million at March 31, 1997 from $65.2
million at December 31, 1996. This increase was due to the purchase
of $1.0 million of U. S. Government agency securities and a net
increase in mortgage backed securities of $3.9 million during the three
months ended March 31, 1997.
The increase in total assets was funded by an increase in customer
deposits of $11.6 million, or 7.1%, to $175.9 million at March 31,
1997 from $164.3 million at December 31, 1996. Part of the increase
in customer deposits went to fund a decrease of $4.0 million in
advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") of Atlanta
which decreased from $8.5 million at December 31, 1996 to $4.5
million at March 31, 1997. The advances from the FHLB of Atlanta at
March 31, 1997 consisted of $2.5 million of advances which mature in
one year or less and $2.0 million of advances which mature in January,
1998.
The primary sources of funds for operations of the Bancorp
include principal repayments and sales of loans and mortgage-backed
securities, new savings deposits and borrowings. The Bancorp had
outstanding commitments under existing construction loan agreements
to fund loans approximating $6.4 million at March 31, 1997. In the
opinion of management, the Bancorp's liquid assets are adequate to
meet commitments for loan fundings and other obligations and
expenditures.
Results of Operations
The Bancorp recorded net income of $502,540 for the three
months ended March 31, 1997, compared to $390,729 for the three
months ended March 31, 1996, an increase of $111,811, or 28.6%.
Primary earnings per share were $0.31 and $0.24 for the three months
ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively. Weighted average
shares of common stock outstanding were 1,564,248 and 1,524,208 for
the same periods in 1997 and 1996, respectively. As explained in
footnote 6, in order to provide consistency, the weighted average
number of common shares outstanding for current and prior periods
have been adjusted to give effect to a 10% stock dividend in July,
1996.
PAGE 11
The Bancorp's principal sources of revenues are interest and fees
on loans and mortgage-backed securities, interest and dividends on
investments, and other revenue associated with fees on deposit accounts
and related services.
Net interest income before provision for loan losses for the three
months ended March 31, 1997 was $1.8 million, an increase of
$160,885, or 9.8%, from $1.6 million for the three months ended
March 31, 1996. The increase resulted primarily from a growth in
average interest-earning assets, which was partially offset by a decrease
in interest margin. Total interest-earning assets in the three months
ended March 31, 1997 averaged $187.2 million as compared to $163.8
million for the same period in 1996. For the three months ended
March 31, 1997 the interest rate spread was 3.69%, a decrease of 3
basis points from 3.72% for the three months ended March 31, 1996.
The yield on interest-earning assets decreased by 30 basis points from
8.58% for the three months ended March 31, 1996 to 8.28% for the
three months ended March 31, 1997. The cost of interest bearing
liabilities decreased by 27 basis points to 4.59% for the three months
ended March 31, 1997 from 4.86% for the three months ended March
31, 1996.
Total interest income increased by $309,885, or 8.8%, to $3.8
million for the three months ended March 31, 1997 from $3.5 million
for the three months ended March 31, 1996. This increase was
primarily due to an increase of $18.6 million in average investment
securities to $77.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 1997
from $58.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 1996, as well
as an increase in the average yield on these securities from 6.34% to
6.49% for the same periods. Average loans receivable increased by
$4.8 million from $105.1 million in the three months ended March 31,
1996 to $109.9 million in the three months ended March 31, 1997. The
yield on average loans receivable for the three months ended March 31,
1997 was 9.54% a decrease of 29 basis points from 9.83% for the three
months ended March 31, 1996.

for the three months ended March 31, 1996. Customer deposits
averaged $172.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 1997,
up $23.3 million from $148.7 million for the three months ended
March 31, 1996; however, the average effective rate paid on deposits
decreased by 26 basis points to 4.57% in the 1997 period from 4.83%
in the 1996 period. FHLB of Atlanta advances averaged $5.5 million
for the three months ended March 31, 1997, a decrease of $1.3 million
from $6.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 1996. The
average effective rate paid on FHLB of Atlanta advances decreased to
5.37% for the three months ended March 31, 1997 from 5.44% for the
same period in 1996.
The provision for loan losses for the three months ended March
31, 1997 was $130,000, as compared to $160,000 for the three months
ended March 31, 1996. In recognition of any nonperforming loans and
the inherent risk in lending, the Bancorp has established a provision for
loan losses. The provision for loan losses is a reserve of funds
established to absorb the inherent risk in lending, after evaluating the
loan portfolio, considering current economic conditions, changes in the
nature and volume of lending and past loan loss experience. In
management's opinion the allowance for loan losses is adequate to
absorb potential losses in the current loan portfolio. The allowance for
loan losses at March 31, 1997 was $1.6 million, or 1.47% of total
loans receivable and 94.1% of nonperforming loans and real estate
owned, versus $1.5 million at December 31, 1996, which was 1.39%
of total loans receivable and 75.5% of nonperforming loans and real
estate owned.
Total other income for the three months ended March 31, 1997
was $402,426 as compared to $254,872 for the three months ended
March 31, 1996, an increase of $147,554, or 57.9%. This was
primarily due to an increase in fees on deposit accounts, resulting from
an increased retail deposit base.

Total operating expense increased by $185,928, or 16.0%, to
$1.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 1997 from $1.2
million for the three months ended March 31, 1996. Employee
compensation and benefits increased by $124,784, or 25.4%, reflecting
the cost of opening one new branch in July, 1996. Premises and equipment
increased by $118,579, or 36.4% which principally reflects the cost of
opening one new branch in July, 1996.
Deposit insurance assessments decreased $56,423, or 69.4%, to
$24,907 for the three months ended March 31, 1997 from $81,330 for
the three months ended March 31, 1996, reflecting the one-time
recapitalization of the Savings Association Insurance Fund (SAIF) in
the third quarter of 1996 which had the effect of reducing the ongoing
periodic insurance payments.

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices
The consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes
presented herein 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 considering changes in the relative purchasing power of money
over time due to inflation.
Unlike many industrial companies, substantially all of the assets
and virtually all of the liabilities of the Bancorp are monetary in nature.
As a result, interest rates have a more significant impact on the
Bancorp's performance than the effects of general levels of inflation.
Interest rates may not necessarily move in the same direction or in the
same magnitude as the prices of goods and services. However, other
expenses do reflect general levels of inflation.
