ITEM NO. 2 MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
FINANCIAL CONDITION
First Community Bank of East Tennessee (the "Bank") represents virtually all of
the assets of First Community Corporation (the "Company"). The Bank, which was
opened in April of 1993, has grown in total assets to $116 million at June 30,
2000.
Loans have increased $2.1 million or 2.2% during the first six months of 2000.
The increased loans were funded through an effort to increase core deposits
during the first two quarters of 2000.
NONPERFORMING ASSETS AND RISK ELEMENTS. Nonperforming assets consist of (1)
nonaccrual loans where the recognition of interest was discontinued, (2) loans
which have been restructured to provide for a reduction or deferral of interest
or principal because the borrower's financial condition deteriorated, and (3)
foreclosed and repossessed assets. Nonperforming assets at June 30, 2000
amounted to $74,000 or .08% of total loans, an increase from $ 40,000 or .04 %
of total loans at December 31, 1999. Diversification within the loan portfolio
is an important means of reducing inherent lending risks. At June 30, 2000, the
Bank had no concentrations of ten percent or more of total loans in any single
industry nor in any geographical area outside the immediate market area of the
Bank.
The Bank discontinues the accrual of interest on loans which become ninety days
past due (principal and/or interest), unless the loans are adequately secured
and in the process of collection. Other real estate owned is carried at fair
value, determined by an appraisal. A loan is classified as a restructured loan
when the interest rate is materially reduced or the term is extended beyond the
original maturity date because of the inability of the borrower to service the
debt under the original terms. The Bank has $ 259,000 of other real estate owned
as of June 30, 2000.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Liquidity is adequate with cash and due from banks of $3.6 million and fed funds
sold of $ 1.6 million as of June 30, 2000. In addition, loans and investment
securities repricing or maturing within one year or less exceed $ 33.6 million
at June 30, 2000. The Bank has approximately $ 6.7 million in loan commitments
that are expected to be funded within the next six months and other commitments,
primarily standby letters of credit, of approximately $103,000 at June 30, 2000.
In addition to the Federal Home Loan Bank membership, the Bank has established
federal funds lines of credit with three correspondent banks totaling $ 14.0
million to meet unexpected liquidity demands. With the exception of unfunded
loan commitments, there are no known trends or any known commitments or
uncertainties that will result in the Bank's liquidity increasing or decreasing
in a material way. In addition, the Company is not aware of any recommendations
by any regulatory authorities which would have a material effect on the
Company's liquidity, capital resources or results of operations.
Total equity capital at June 30, 2000, is $10.415 million or approximately 9.0 %
of total assets. The Bank's capital position is adequate to meet the minimum
capital requirements for all regulatory agencies. The Bank's capital ratios as
of June 30, 2000, are as follows:
Tier 1 leverage 9.00%
Tier 1 risk-based 9.82%
Total risk-based 12.94%

<PAGE> 9
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The Company had net income of $546,000 for the six months ending June 30, 2000,
compared with $609,000 for the same period last year, resulting in a decrease of
10.3 %.
Interest income and interest expense both increased from 1999 to 2000 resulting
from the increase in earning assets and as a result of increases in the prime
rate. Consequently, net interest income increased $35,000 for the three months
ending June 30,2000, or an increase of 1.4 %. Earning assets through June 30,
2000 increased $3.1 million while interest-bearing liabilities decreased $ 2.4
million compared to December 31, 1999, reflecting an increase of 2.9% and a
decrease of 2.56%, respectively.
Noninterest income for the six months ending June 30, 2000 was $554,000 compared
to $471,000 for the same period in 1999 reflecting an increase of $83,000 or
17.7%. Noninterest income consists mainly of service charges on deposit
accounts, credit life insurance commissions, and secondary mortgage processing
fees. Service charges on deposit accounts for the six months ending June 30,
2000 was $323,000 compared with $290,000 for the same period in 1999 reflecting
an increase of 11.5%.
The provision for loan losses was $72,000 during the six months ending June 30,
2000 compared with $126,000 for the same period in 1999. The allowance for loan
losses of $953,000 at June 30, 2000 (approximately 1.00% of loans) is considered
by management to be adequate to cover losses inherent in the loan portfolio.
Management evaluates the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses monthly and
makes provisions for loan losses based on this evaluation.
