Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
1. General
-------
South Carolina Community Bancshares, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated
under the laws of the State of Delaware for the purpose of becoming the
savings and loan holding company of Community Federal Savings Bank (the
"Savings Bank"). Both companies are headquartered in Winnsboro, South
Carolina. The Company is engaged primarily in the business of directing,
planning and coordinating the business activities of the Savings Bank. The
financial statements of the Savings Bank are presented on a consolidated
basis with those of the Company.
2. Basis of Preparation
--------------------
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements were prepared
in accordance with instructions for Form 10-QSB and therefore, do not
include all disclosures necessary for a complete presentation of the
consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of income,
consolidated statements of stockholders' equity, and consolidated
statements of cash flows in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles. However, all adjustments which are, in the opinion of
management, necessary for the fair presentation of the interim financial
statements have been included. All such adjustments are of a normal
recurring nature. The statements of income for the three and nine month
periods ended March 31, 1998, are not necessarily indicative of the results
which may be expected for the entire year.
It is suggested that these unaudited consolidated financial statements be
read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and
notes thereto for the Company for the year ended June 30, 1997, which are
included in the Form 10-KSB by reference (file no. 0-24476).
3. Earnings Per Share
------------------
Basic earnings per share amounts for the three and nine month periods ended
March 31, 1997 and 1998, are based on the average number of shares
outstanding during the period in accordance with SFAS 128. Prior earnings
per share amounts have been restated to conform with SFAS 128. Unallocated
ESOP shares are not considered as outstanding for purposes of this
calculation. Diluted earnings per share include the effect of dilution for
stock options and stock awards.

Item 2.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
General
The following discussion and analysis is intended to assist in understanding the
financial condition and the results of operations of the Company. References to
the "Company" include South Carolina Community Bancshares, Inc. and/or Community
Federal Savings Bank as appropriate.
Comparison of Financial Condition at June 30, 1997 and March 31, 1998
The Company's total consolidated assets decreased by approximately $300,000 or
0.6% from $46.6 million at June 30, 1997 to $46.3 million at March 31, 1998.
The composition of the Company's balance sheet has not been materially affected
by market conditions between June 30, 1997 and March 31, 1998. Net loans
decreased $320,000 or .9%.
Consistent with its historical lending practices, virtually all of the Company's
loan portfolio at March 31, 1998 consisted primarily of fixed rate loans with
maturities up to thirty (30) years. Consequently, the Company is exposed to a
high degree of interest rate risk in a rising interest rate environment. The
Company has historically accepted this risk in light of its relatively high
capital levels. See "Liquidity and Capital Resources" discussion below.
Deposits increased $2.5 million or 7.1%, from $34.0 million at June 30, 1997 to
$36.5 million at March 31, 1998. The increase in deposits was primarily
attributable to a $2.3 million growth in certificates of deposit.
Comparison of Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended March 31, 1997
and 1998
Net Income. Net income increased $1,000 from $121,000 for the three months ended
March 31, 1997 to $122,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1998. The return
on average assets was 1.15% for the three months ended March 31, 1997 compared
to 1.06% for the three months ended March 31, 1998.
Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased $11,000 or 2.4% from $455,000
for the three months ended March 31, 1997 to $466,000 for the three months ended
March 31, 1998. The improvement in net interest income primarily reflects an
increase in interest rate spread from 3.04% for three months ending March 31,
1997 to 3.31% for the three months ended March 31, 1998.
Interest Income. Total interest income increased $19,000 from $870,000 for the
three months ended March 31, 1997 to $889,000 for the three months ended March
31, 1998. Interest on loans
10
<PAGE>
increased $17,000, or 2.3%. Interest on investments increased $8,000 as the
average portfolio increased during the March 98 quarter.
Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $8,000 from $415,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 1997 to $423,000 for the three months ended March 31,
1998. The increase for the three months ending March 31, 1998 was the result of
a $2.5 million increase in the average deposits outstanding offset by a 26 basis
point decrease in the cost of funds. The majority of this deposit growth came as
a result of an increase in certificates of deposit accounts.
Provision for Loan Losses. The Company did not record any provision for loan
losses for either of the three month periods ended March 31. Historically,
management has emphasized the Company's loss experience over other factors in
establishing provisions for loan losses. However, management has reviewed the
allowance for loan losses in relation to the Company's composition of its loan
portfolio and observations of the general economic climate and loan loss
expectations. The ratio of allowance to non-performing loans at March 31, 1998
was 57.3% and nonperforming loans to total loans was only 1.42%.
Non-Interest Income. Non-interest income continues to be an insignificant source
of income for the Company. This income was $31,000 for the three months ending
March 31, 1997 and $35,000 for the same period in 1998. The marginal increase is
the result of the continued effort to offer additional banking services to the
Bank's customers.
Non-Interest Expense. Non-interest expense increased by $19,000 from $295,000
for the three months ending March 31, 1997 to $314,000 for 1998. The increase
was the direct result of a $15,000 increase in compensation expense primarily
from normal salary increases. Net occupancy expense increased $5,000 as a result
of increased depreciation expense due to the additional branch facility. Other
non-interest expense items remained relatively stable with anticipated
inflationary increases or expected decreases such as for deposit insurance
premiums.
Comparison of Results of Operations for the Nine Months Ended March 31, 1997 and
1998
Net Income. Net income increased $40,000 or 14.8% from $271,000 for the nine
months ended March 31, 1997 to $311,000 for the nine months ended March 31,
1998. Included in operations for the nine months ending March 31, 1997 was
$193,000 for the SAIF premium assessment signed into law on September 3, 1996.
The after tax effect of this one-time special assessment was approximately
$119,000. The return on average assets was 0.79% for the nine months ended March
31, 1997 compared to 0.90 % for the nine months ended March 31, 1998.
Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased $14,000 or 1.0% from
$1,368,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 1997 to $1,382,000 for the nine
months ended March 31, 1998. The improvement in net interest income primarily
reflects an increase in the interest rate spread from 2.92% for nine months
ending March 31, 1997 to 3.31% for the nine months ending March 31, 1998 offset
by a decrease in net average interest-earning assets for the Company which were
used to fund the stock repurchase program. During the nine months ending March
31, 1998 the Company paid $2.8 million for the repurchase of 120,069 shares of
common stock.
11
<PAGE>
Interest Income. Total interest income increased $54,000 or 2.1% for the nine
months ended March 31, 1998. Interest on loans increased $72,000, or 3.3%, while
interest on investments, mortgage-backed securities and interest earning
deposits decreased in aggregate by $18,000 as the average invested balances
decreased.
Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $40,000 from $1,232,000 for the
nine months ended March 31, 1997 to $1,272,000 for the nine months ended March
31, 1998. The increase for the nine months ending March 31, 1998 was the result
of a $2.4 million increase in the average deposits outstanding offset by a 25
basis point decrease in the cost of funds.
Provision for Loan Losses. The Company did not record any provision for loan
losses for either of the nine month periods ended March 31. Historically,
management has emphasized the Company's loss experience over other factors in
establishing provisions for loan losses. However, management has reviewed the
allowance for loan losses in relation to the Company's composition of its loan
portfolio and observations of the general economic climate and loan loss
expectations.
Non-Interest Income. Non-interest income continues to be an insignificant source
of income for the Company. This income was $58,000 for the nine months ending
March 31, 1997 and $90,000 for the same period in 1998. The increase is the
result of additional service fee transactions being offered by the Bank.
Non-Interest Expense. Non-interest expense decreased by $21,000 from $982,000
for the nine months ending March 31, 1997 to $961,000 for 1998. The decrease was
the direct result of the Company recognizing $193,000 of additional deposit
insurance premiums during the nine months ending March 31, 1997 as a one time
expense. Therefore, deposit insurance premiums were $220,000 less for the nine
months ending March 31, 1998 as compared to the same period in the 1997.
Compensation expense increased by $68,000 for the nine month period in 1998
compared to 1997 as additional personnel from the new branch location were
employed during the entire nine month period of 1998 as compared to only a
portion of the same nine month period ending March 31, 1997. Other non-interest
expense such as occupancy expense, data processing and other operating expenses
reflect increases for the same reason.
Liquidity and Capital Resources. The Company's primary sources of funds are new
deposits, investment maturities and proceeds from principal and interest
payments on loans. While maturities of investments and scheduled amortization of
loans are a predictable source of funds, deposit flows and mortgage prepayments
are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and
competition. The Company's primary investing activity is loan originations. The
Company maintains liquidity levels adequate to fund loan commitments, investment
opportunities, deposit withdrawals and other financial commitments. At March 31,
1998 commitments to fund new loans were approximately $615,000 and unfunded
loans in process were approximately $570,000.
At March 31, 1998, there were no material commitments for capital expenditures.
At March 31, 1998, management had no knowledge of any trends, events or
uncertainties that will have or are reasonably likely to have material effects
on the liquidity, capital resources or
12
<PAGE>
operations of the Company. Further at March 31, 1998, management was not aware
of any current recommendations by the regulatory authorities which, if
implemented, would have such an effect.
The Bank exceeded all of its capital requirements at March 31, 1998. The Bank
had the following capital ratios at March 31, 1998:

Year 2000 Compliance. The Company has established a plan to address Year 2000
issues. Successful implementation of this plan will eliminate any extraordinary
expenses related to the Year 2000 issue. The Company has received confirmation
from its sole data processing company regarding their Year 2000 plans and
compliance. The Company has requested from its data processing company
information that would enable it to test all critical systems by mid 1998 in
order to ensure compliance by December 31, 1998. The Company has a reasonable
basis to conclude that the Year 2000 issue will not materially affect future
financial results, or cause reported financial information not to be necessarily
indicative of future operating results or future financial condition.
