Private Securities Litigation Reform Act Safe Harbor Statement
- --------------------------------------------------------------
The Company is making this statement in order to satisfy the "Safe Harbor"
provision contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The
statements contained in this report on Form 10-KSB that are not statements of
historical fact may include forward-looking statements that involve a number of
risks and uncertainties. Such forward-looking statements are made based on
management's expectations and beliefs concerning future events impacting the
Company and are subject to uncertainties and factors relating to the Company's
operations and economic environment, all of which are difficult to predict and
many of which are beyond the control of the Company, that could cause actual
results of the Company to differ materially from those matters expressed in or
implied by forward-looking statements. The following factors are among those
that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking
statements: changes in general economic, market and regulatory conditions, the
development of an interest rate environment that may adversely affect the
Company's interest rate spread, other income or cash flow anticipated from the
Company's operations, investment and lending activities; and changes in laws and
regulations affecting banks and bank holding companies.
Intervest Bancshares Corporation
- --------------------------------
Intervest Bancshares Corporation is a registered bank holding company (the
"Holding Company") incorporated in 1993 under the laws of the State of Delaware.
Its principal office is located at 10 Rockefeller Plaza, Suite 1015, New York,
New York 10020, and its telephone number is 212-218-2800. The Holding Company's
Class A common stock was approved for listing on the NASDAQ SmallCap Market
(Symbol: IBCA) in November 1997. Prior to then, there had been no established
trading market for the securities of the Holding Company. At December 31, 1999,
the Holding Company owned 100% of the outstanding capital stock of Intervest
Bank and Intervest National Bank. Hereafter, the Holding Company and Intervest
Bank and Intervest National Bank are referred to collectively as the "Company,"
on a consolidated basis. Intervest Bank and Intervest National Bank may be
referred to collectively as the "Banks."
At December 31, 1999, the Company had total assets of $247,829,000, deposits of
$207,168,000, convertible debentures of $6,930,000, and stockholders' equity of
$21,464,000. At December 31, 1998, the Company had total assets of $200,522,000,
deposits of $170,467,000, convertible debentures of $7,000,000 and stockholders'
equity of $19,544,000.
The Holding Company's primary business is the operation of the Banks. It does
not engage in any other substantial business activities other than a limited
amount of real estate mortgage lending. In 1998, the Holding Company also sold
convertible subordinated debentures in the aggregate principal amount of
$7,000,000 for working capital purposes.
Intervest Bank and Intervest National Bank
- ------------------------------------------
Intervest Bank is a Florida state-chartered commercial bank that provides a wide
range of banking services to small and middle-market businesses and individuals
through its banking offices located in Pinellas County, Florida. The principal
executive offices of Intervest Bank are located at 625 Court Street, Clearwater,
Florida 33756. In addition, Intervest Bank has four branches; three in
Clearwater, Florida and one in South Pasadena, Florida.
At December 31, 1999, Intervest Bank had total assets of $189,477,000, deposits
of $166,969,000, and stockholders' equity of $12,746,000, compared to total
assets of $184,460,000, deposits of $170,467,000 and stockholders' equity of
$11,104,000, at December 31, 1998.

<PAGE>
Intervest National Bank is a nationally chartered commercial bank that opened
for business on April 1, 1999. It is located at One Rockefeller Plaza in New
York City and provides full commercial banking services, including Internet
banking through its Web Site: www.intervestnatbank.com. At December 31, 1999,
Intervest National Bank had total assets of $57,562,000, deposits of $47,475,000
and stockholder's equity of $8,493,000
The Holding Company and Intervest Bank are subject to examination and regulation
by the Federal Reserve Board (the "FRB") and the Banks' deposits are insured by
the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the "FDIC") to the extent permitted
by law. Intervest Bank is also subject to the supervision of and examination by
the Florida Department of Banking and Finance, while Intervest National Bank is
subject to the supervision and regulation of the Office of the Comptroller of
the Currency (the "OCC").
The Banks conduct a personalized commercial and consumer banking business,
which consists of attracting deposits from the areas served by their banking
offices. Intervest National Bank also uses the Internet for attracting its
deposits, which can attract deposit customers from within as well as outside its
primary market area. The deposits, together with funds derived from other
sources, are used to originate a variety of real estate, commercial and consumer
loans and to purchase investment securities. The Banks' emphasize multifamily
and commercial residential real estate lending. Commercial loans include both
collateralized and uncollateralized loans for: working capital (including
inventory, receivables and business expansion); real estate acquisitions and
improvements; and purchases of equipment and machinery. Consumer loans include
collateralized and uncollateralized loans for financing automobiles, boats, home
improvements and personal investments.
As is the case with banking institutions generally, the Banks' operations are
significantly influenced by general economic conditions and by related monetary
and fiscal policies of banking regulatory agencies, including the FRB, FDIC, OCC
and Florida Department of Banking and Finance. Deposit flows and the rates paid
thereon are influenced by interest rates on competing investments and general
market rates of interest. Lending activities are affected by the demand for
financing of real estate and other types of loans, which in turn is affected by
the interest rates at which such financing may be offered and other factors
affecting local demand and availability of funds. The Banks face strong
competition in the attraction of deposits and in the origination of loans.
The revenues of the Banks are primarily derived from interest on, and fees
received in connection with, loans and from interest and dividends from
securities and other short-term investments. The principal sources of funds for
the Banks' lending activities are deposits, repayment of loans, maturities and
calls of securities and cash flow generated from operating activities. The
Banks' principal expenses are interest paid on deposits and operating and
general and administrative expenses.
Merger
- ------
In late 1999, Intervest Bancshares Corporation announced that it had agreed to
acquire Intervest Corporation of New York, a company with assets of
approximately $99,000,000, consisting of a portfolio of mortgages on improved
real property and short-term investments, primarily certificates of deposit and
U.S. government agency notes. The combined total assets of the two entities if
they had merged at December 31, 1999 would have been approximately $340,000,000.
The two entities are related in that the same persons serve on their boards and
the holders of all of the shares of Intervest Corporation of New York also own
approximately 48% of the voting shares of Intervest Bancshares Corporation. The
merger was approved by both Boards of Directors, the shareholders of both the
Company and Intervest Corporation of New York, and the Federal Reserve Bank of
Atlanta. In the merger, Intervest Corporation of New York shareholders received
an aggregate of 1,250,000 shares of the Company's Class A common stock in
exchange for all of Intervest Corporation of New York's capital stock. The
merger became effective in March 2000 and will be accounted for at historical
cost similar to the pooling-of-interests method of accounting.

Market Area
Intervest Bank's facilities are located in Pinellas County, which is its primary
market area and is the most populous county in the Tampa Bay area of Florida,
with an estimated resident population of over 800,000 people. The area has many
more seasonal residents. The Tampa Bay area is located on the West Coast of
Florida, midway up the Florida peninsula. The major cities in the area are Tampa
(Hillsborough County) and St. Petersburg and Clearwater (Pinellas County).
Intervest Bank's deposit gathering and lending markets are concentrated in the
communities surrounding its offices in Clearwater and South Pasadena, Florida.
Management believes that its offices are located in an area serving small and
mid-sized businesses and serving middle and upper income residential
communities.
Intervest National Bank's facilities are located in Rockefeller Center in New
York City and its primary deposit gathering and lending market area is the New
York City metropolitan region, and Manhattan in particular. Its deposit
gathering market also includes its Web Site on the Internet:
www.intervestnatbank.com, which attracts deposit customers from both within and
outside the Bank's primary market area. The New York City metropolitan area
economy during the last three years has shown increased growth as evidenced by
local employment growth statistics. Improvement can also be seen in the local
real estate market as reflected in increased existing home sales and real estate
values during the past few years.
The Holding Company's direct lending activities are concentrated in the New York
City metropolitan region. It also considers Connecticut, Florida, New Jersey,
Pennsylvania and Washington D.C. as its primary lending market.
Competition
The deregulation of the banking industry and the widespread enactment of state
laws that permit multi-bank holding companies, as well as an increasing level of
interstate banking, have created a highly competitive environment for commercial
banking. In one or more aspects of their business, the Banks compete with other
commercial banks, savings and loan associations, credit unions, finance
companies, mutual funds, insurance companies, brokerage and investment banking
companies, and other financial intermediaries. Most of these competitors, some
of which are affiliated with large bank holding companies, have substantially
greater resources and lending limits, and may offer services that the Banks do
not currently provide. In addition, many of the Banks' non-bank competitors are
not subject to the same extensive Federal regulations that govern bank holding
companies and Federally insured banks.
Competition among financial institutions is based upon interest rates offered on
deposit accounts, interest rates charged on loans and other credit and service
charges, the quality and scope of the services rendered, the convenience of
banking facilities and, in the case of loans to commercial borrowers, relative
lending limits. Management believes that a community bank is better positioned
to establish personalized banking relationships with both commercial customers
and individual households. The Banks' community commitment and involvement in
their primary market areas, as well as their commitment to quality and
personalized banking services are factors that contribute to each Bank's
competitiveness. Management believes a locally-based bank is often perceived by
the local business community as possessing a clearer understanding of local
commerce and their needs. Consequently, management believes that the Banks can
compete successfully in their primary market areas by making prudent lending
decisions quickly and more efficiently than their competitors, without
compromising asset quality or profitability, although no assurances can be given
that such factors will assure success. In addition, management believes a
personalized service approach enables the Banks to attract and retain core
deposits.
Asset Quality
Management seeks to maintain a high level of asset quality. The Banks seek to
maintain diversification when considering investments in securities and the
originations of loans. In originating loans, emphasis is placed on the
3
<PAGE>
borrower's ability to generate cash flow to support its debt obligations and
other cash related expenses. Lending activities are conducted pursuant to
written policies and defined lending limits. Depending on their type and size,
certain loans must be reviewed and approved by a Loan Committee comprised of
certain members of the Board of Directors prior to being originated. As part of
its loan portfolio management strategy, the Banks typically limit their loans to
a maximum of 80% of the value of the underlying real estate as determined by an
appraisal. In addition, physical inspections of properties being considered for
mortgage loans are made as part of the approval process.
Each Bank's Loan Committee concentrates its efforts and resources, as well as
their senior management and lending officers, on loan review and underwriting
procedures. Internal controls include ongoing reviews of loans made to monitor
documentation and ensure the existence and valuations of collateral. Each Bank
also has in place a review process with the objective of quickly identifying,
evaluating and initiating necessary corrective actions for any problem loans.
The goal of this loan review process is to address any classified loans as early
as possible.
Management maintains a cautious outlook in anticipating the potential effects of
uncertain economic conditions (both locally and nationally) and the possibility
of more stringent regulatory standards. Management believes that its policies
and procedures reduce the Company's exposure to the risks associated with a
downturn in real estate values. However, there can be no assurance that a
downturn in real estate values, as well as other economic factors, would not
have an adverse impact on the Company's profitability.
At December 31, 1999 and 1998, the Company did not have any nonperforming assets
or impaired loans.
Lending Activities
The Company's lending activities include real estate loans and commercial and
consumer loans. Real estate loans include primarily the origination of loans for
commercial and multifamily properties. While the Company's lending activities
include single-family residential mortgages, such lending has not been
emphasized. Commercial loans are originated for working capital funding.
Consumer loans include those for the purchase of automobiles, boats, home
improvements and investments.
At December 31, 1999, the Company's loan portfolio amounted to $149,647,000,
compared to $98,221,000 at December 31, 1998. At December 31, 1999 and 1998, the
loan portfolio consisted predominantly of real estate mortgage loans.
Real Estate Mortgage Lending
- ----------------------------
The Company offers real estate loans secured by commercial and residential real
estate. A substantial portion of the Company's loan portfolio is comprised of
loans secured by commercial and multifamily real estate, including apartment
buildings, office buildings and retail shopping centers. The properties are
located mostly in the Company's primary market areas.
Commercial and multifamily mortgage lending generally involves greater risk than
1-4 family residential lending. Such lending typically involves larger loan
balances to single borrowers and repayment of loans secured by income producing
properties is typically dependent upon the successful operation of the
underlying real estate.
The Company's underwriting procedures require mortgage title insurance, hazard
insurance and an appraisal of the property securing the loan to determine the
property's adequacy as security. Loan-to-value ratios (the ratio that the
original principal amount of the loan bears to the lower of the purchase price
or appraised value of the property securing the loan at the time of origination)
on new loans originated by the Company typically do not exceed 80%.
New mortgage loans on commercial real estate and multifamily properties are
normally originated for terms of no more than 20 years with interest rates that
are predominantly variable rate, based on the prime rate. Additionally, many
loans have an interest rate floor which resets upward along with any increase in
the loan's interest rate. This feature reduces the loan's interest rate exposure
to periods of declining interest rates.

<PAGE>
Commercial Lending
- ------------------
The Banks offer a variety of commercial loan services including term loans,
lines of credit and equipment financing. Short-to-medium term commercial loans,
both collateralized and uncollateralized, are made available to businesses for
working capital needs (including those secured by inventory, receivables and
other assets), business expansion (including acquisitions of real estate and
improvements), and the purchase of equipment and machinery. The purpose of a
particular loan generally determines its structure. The Banks' commercial loans
primarily are underwritten in each Bank's primary market area on the basis of
the borrower's ability to service such debt from income. As a general practice,
the Banks take as collateral a lien on any available real estate, equipment, or
other assets. Working capital loans are primarily collateralized by short-term
assets, whereas term loans are primarily collateralized by longer-term assets.
Intervest National Bank did not originate any commercial loans in 1999.
Unlike 1-4 family residential mortgage loans, (which generally are made on the
basis of the borrower's ability to make repayment from their employment and
other income and which are collateralized by real property whose value tends to
be more readily ascertainable) commercial loans typically are underwritten on
the basis of the borrower's ability to make repayment from the cash flow of
their business and generally are collateralized by business assets, such as
accounts receivable, equipment and inventory. As a result, the availability of
funds for the repayment of commercial loans may be substantially dependent on
the success of the business itself. Further, the collateral underlying the loans
may depreciate over time, cannot be appraised with as much precision as
residential real estate, and may fluctuate in value based on the success of the
business.
Consumer Lending
- ----------------
Consumer loans offered by the Banks include those for: the purchase of
automobiles, recreation vehicles and boats; second mortgages; home improvements;
home equity lines of credit; and personal loans (both collateralized and
uncollateralized). Consumer loans typically have a short term and carry higher
interest rates than that charged on other types of loans. In addition, consumer
loans pose additional risks of collectability when compared to traditional types
of loans granted by commercial banks such as residential mortgage loans. In many
instances, the Banks are required to rely on the borrower's ability to repay the
loan from personal income sources, since the collateral may be of reduced value
at the time of collection. Intervest National Bank did not originate any
consumer loans in 1999.
Loan Solicitation and Processing
- --------------------------------
Loan originations are derived from: direct solicitation by the Company's
officers; existing customers and borrowers; advertising; walk-in customers; and
referrals from brokers. Upon receipt of a loan application from a prospective
borrower, a credit report and other verifications are obtained to substantiate
specific information relating to the applicant's employment income and credit
standing. An appraisal, where required, of any real estate intended to
collateralize the proposed loan is undertaken by an appraiser approved by the
Company. In addition, physical inspections of properties being considered for
mortgage loans are made as part of the approval process.
Investment Activities
The Banks' investment policies and strategies are reviewed and approved by their
respective Board of Directors and Investment Committees. The Banks have
historically only purchased securities that are issued directly by the U.S.
government or one of its agencies. Accordingly, the Banks' investments in
securities carry a significantly lower credit risk than their loan portfolios.
To manage interest rate risk, the Banks normally purchase securities that have
adjustable rates or securities with fixed rates that have short- to
intermediate-maturity terms. Securities held to maturity totaled $83,132,000 at
December 31, 1999, compared to $82,338,000 at December 31, 1998.
From time to time, the Banks may also maintain a securities available-for-sale
account to provide flexibility in the management of asset/liability strategies.
During 1999 and 1998, there were no securities classified as available for sale.
The Company does not engage in trading activities.
5
<PAGE>
The Company also invests in various money-market instruments, including
overnight and term Federal funds. These investments are used to invest the
Company's available funds resulting from deposit-taking operations and normal
cash flow and to help satisfy both internal liquidity needs and regulatory
liquidity requirements.
Deposit Activities
The Banks' primary sources of funds consist of: retail deposits obtained through
their branch offices and through the mail; amortization, satisfactions and
repayments of loans; the maturities and calls of securities; and cash provided
by operating activities.
Deposits are the major source of the Bank's funds for lending and other
investment purposes. The majority of deposit accounts are solicited from
individuals, small businesses and professional firms located throughout the
Banks' primary market areas through the offering of a broad variety of deposit
services. Intervest National Bank's deposit gathering market also includes its
Web Site on the Internet: www.intervestnatbank.com, which attracts deposit
customers from both within and outside its primary market area. Intervest
National Bank advertises its products and services on various Web sites such as
Bank Rate Monitor.
Deposit services include: certificates of deposit (including jumbo certificates
in denominations of $100,000 or more); individual retirement accounts (IRAs);
other time deposits; checking and other demand deposit accounts; negotiable
order of withdrawal (NOW) accounts, savings accounts and money-market accounts.
Transaction accounts and certificates of deposit accounts are tailored to the
principal market area of each Bank at rates competitive to those in each area.
In addition, the determination of rates and terms also considers the Banks'
liquidity requirements, growth goals, capital levels and Federal regulations.
Maturity terms, service fees and withdrawal penalties on deposit products are
reviewed and established by the Banks on a periodic basis. The Banks also offer
ATM services with access to local, state and national networks, wire transfers,
direct deposit of payroll and social security checks and automated drafts for
various accounts. In addition, Intervest Bank offers safe deposit boxes to its
customers, while Intervest National Bank provides internet banking services. The
Banks periodically review the scope of the banking products and services they
offer in order to determine whether to add to or modify them, consistent with
market opportunities and available resources. At December 31, 1999, deposit
liabilities totaled $207,168,000, compared to $170,467,000 at December 31, 1998.
Other Sources of Funds
From time to time, the Banks purchase Federal funds to manage liquidity needs.
At December 31, 1999, $6,955,000 of overnight Federal funds purchased were
outstanding. Intervest Bank has agreements with correspondent banks whereby it
may borrow up to $8,000,000 on an unsecured basis. There were no outstanding
borrowings under these agreements at December 31, 1999 or 1998. In June 1998,
the Holding Company sold $7,000,000 of convertible subordinated debentures for
net proceeds of approximately $6,500,000. The funds were used to fund the
initial capital of Intervest National Bank. For a further discussion of the
debentures, see page 26.
Employees
At December 31, 1999, the Company employed 36 full-time employees and 4
part-time employees. The employees are not covered by a collective bargaining
agreement and the Company believes its employee relations are good.
Federal and State Taxation
The Holding Company and the Banks file a consolidated Federal income tax return
on a calendar year basis. Consolidated returns have the effect of eliminating
intercompany distributions, including dividends, from the computation of
consolidated taxable income for the taxable year in which the distributions
occur. Banks and bank holding companies are subject to Federal and state income
taxes in the same manner as other corporations. In accordance with an income tax
sharing agreement, income tax charges or credits are, for financial reporting
purposes, allocated to the Holding Company and its subsidiaries on the basis of
their respective taxable income or taxable loss included in the consolidated
income tax return.
6
<PAGE>
Although the Banks' income tax liability is determined under provisions of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), which is applicable to
all taxpayers, Sections 581 through 597 of the Code apply specifically to
financial institutions. The two primary areas in which the treatment of
financial institutions differs from the treatment of other corporations under
the Code are in the areas of bond gains and losses and bad debt deductions. Bond
gains and losses generated from the sale or exchange of portfolio instruments
are generally treated for financial institutions as ordinary gains and losses as
opposed to capital gains and losses for other corporations, as the Code
considers bond portfolios held by banks to be inventory in a trade or business
rather than capital assets. Banks are allowed a statutory method for calculating
a reserve for bad debt deductions. Based on the asset size of the bank, a bank
is permitted to maintain a bad debt reserve calculated on an experience method,
based on chargeoffs and recoveries for the current and preceding five years, or
a "grandfathered" base year reserve, if larger.
The Holding Company files state income tax returns in New Jersey and a franchise
tax return in Delaware. The Holding Company and Intervest National Bank file
consolidated state and city income tax returns in New York. Intervest Bank files
a state income tax return in Florida. Florida taxes banks under primarily the
same provisions as other corporations. The Holding Company's activities, other
than Intervest Bank's operations, are taxable in the State of New York.
Generally, New York State and City taxable income is calculated under applicable
Code sections with some modifications required by state law.

Supervision and Regulation
Bank holding companies and banks are extensively regulated under both Federal
and state laws and regulations that are intended to protect depositors, not
stockholders. To the extent that the following information describes statutory
and regulatory provisions, it is qualified in its entirety by reference to the
particular statutory and regulatory provisions. Any change in the applicable law
or regulation may have a material effect on the business and prospects of the
Holding Company and its subsidiaries.
Bank Holding Company Regulation
- -------------------------------
As a bank holding company registered under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956
(BHCA), the Holding Company is subject to the regulation and supervision of the
FRB. The Holding Company is required to file with the FRB periodic reports and
other information regarding its business operations and those of its
subsidiaries. Under the BHCA, the Holding Company's activities and those of its
subsidiaries are limited to banking, managing or controlling banks, furnishing
services to or performing services for its subsidiaries or engaging in any other
activity which the FRB determines to be so closely related to banking or
managing or controlling banks as to be properly incident thereto.
7
<PAGE>
As a bank holding company, the Holding Company is required to obtain the prior
approval of the FRB before acquiring direct or indirect ownership or control of
more than 5% of the voting shares of a bank or bank holding company. The FRB
will not approve any acquisition, merger or consolidation that would have a
substantial anti-competitive result, unless the anti-competitive effects of the
proposed transaction are outweighed by a greater public interest in meeting the
needs and convenience of the public. The FRB also considers managerial, capital
and other financial factors in acting on acquisition or merger applications. A
bank holding company may not engage in, or acquire direct or indirect control of
more than 5% of the voting shares of any company engaged in any non-banking
activity, unless such activity has been determined by the FRB to be closely
related to banking or managing banks. The FRB has identified by regulation
various non-banking activities in which a bank holding company may engage with
notice to, or prior approval by, the FRB.
It is the policy of the FRB that bank holding companies should pay cash
dividends on common stock only out of income available over the past year and
only if prospective earnings retention is consistent with the organization's
expected future needs and financial condition. The policy provides that bank
holding companies should not maintain a level of cash dividends that undermines
the bank holding company's ability to serve as a source of strength to its
banking subsidiaries. In addition, the Federal regulatory agencies are
authorized to prohibit a banking institution or bank holding company from
engaging in an unsafe or unsound banking practice. Depending upon the
circumstances, the agencies could take the position that paying a dividend would
constitute an unsafe or unsound banking practice. Under FRB policy, a bank
holding company is expected to act as a source of financial strength to its
banking subsidiaries and to commit resources to their support. Such support may
be required at times when, absent this FRB policy, a holding company may not be
inclined to provide it. As discussed below, a bank holding company in certain
circumstances could be required to guarantee the capital plan of an
undercapitalized banking subsidiary.
The FRB monitors the capital adequacy of bank holding companies and has adopted
risk-based capital adequacy guidelines to evaluate bank holding companies on a
consolidated basis. The guidelines require a ratio of "Tier 1" or Core Capital
(generally, common stockholders' equity, perpetual noncumulative preferred stock
and minority interests in consolidated subsidiaries, less goodwill, other
disallowed intangibles and disallowed deferred tax assets, among other items) to
total risk-weighted assets of at least 4% and a ratio of total capital to
risk-weighted assets of at least 8%. At December 31, 1999, the Company's
consolidated ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets was 13.18% and its
risk-based Tier 1 capital ratio was 11.93%.
The FRB also uses a leverage ratio to evaluate the capital adequacy of bank
holding companies. The leverage ratio applicable to the Holding Company requires
a ratio of Tier 1 capital to adjusted total average assets of not less than 3%,
although most organizations are expected to maintain leverage ratios that are
100-200 basis points above this minimum ratio. The Holding Company's leverage
ratio at December 31, 1999, was 8.46%.
The Federal banking agencies' risk-based and leverage ratios are minimum
supervisory ratios generally applicable to banking organizations that meet
certain specified criteria, assuming that they have the highest regulatory
rating. Banking organizations not meeting these criteria are expected to operate
with capital positions well above the minimum ratios. The FRB guidelines also
provide that banking organizations experiencing internal growth or making
acquisitions will be expected to maintain strong capital positions substantially
above the minimum supervisory levels, without significant reliance on intangible
assets. In addition, the regulations of the FRB provide that concentration of
credit risk and certain risk arising from nontraditional activities, as well as
an institution's ability to manage these risks, are important factors to be
taken into account by regulatory agencies in assessing an organization's overall
capital adequacy.
The FRB and the other Federal banking agencies have adopted amendments to their
risk-based capital regulations to provide for the consideration of interest rate
risk in the agency's determination of a banking institution's capital adequacy.
The amendments require such institutions to effectively measure and monitor
their interest rate risk and to maintain capital adequate for that risk.

Bank Regulation
- ---------------
Intervest Bank is a state-chartered banking corporation subject to the
supervision of and examination by the FRB, the Florida Department of Banking and
Finance and the FDIC. Intervest National Bank, as a national banking
association, is subject to primary supervision, examination and regulation by
the OCC, as well as the FRB and FDIC. These regulators have the power to: enjoin
"unsafe or unsound practices;" require affirmative action to correct any
conditions resulting from any violation or practice; issue an administrative
order that can be judicially enforced; direct an increase in capital; restrict
the growth of a bank; assess civil monetary penalties; and remove officers and
directors.
The operations of the Banks are subject to numerous statutes and regulations.
Such statutes and regulations relate to required reserves against deposits,
investments, loans, mergers and consolidations, issuance of securities, payment
of dividends, establishment of branches, and other aspects of the Banks'
operations. Various consumer laws and regulations also affect the operations of
the Banks, including state usury laws, laws relating to fiduciaries, consumer
credit and equal credit, and fair credit reporting.
The Banks are subject to Sections 23A and 23B of the Federal Reserve Act, which
governs certain transactions, such as loans, extensions of credit, investments
and purchases of assets between member banks and their affiliates, including
their parent holding companies. These restrictions limit the transfer of funds
to the Holding Company, as defined in the statute, in the form of loans,
extensions of credit, investment or purchases of assets ("Transfers"), and they
require that the Banks' transactions with the Holding Company be on terms no
less favorable to the Banks than comparable transaction between the Banks and
unrelated third parties. Transfers by the Banks to the Holding Company are
limited in amount to 10% of each Bank's capital and surplus, and transfers to
all affiliates are limited in the aggregate to 20% of each Bank's capital and
surplus. Furthermore, such loans and extensions of credit are also subject to
various collateral requirements. These regulations and restrictions may limit
the Holding Company's ability to obtain funds from the Banks for its cash needs,
including funds for acquisitions, and the payment of dividends, interest and
operating expenses.
The Banks are prohibited from engaging in certain tying arrangements in
connection with any extension of credit, lease or sale of property or furnishing
of services. For example, the Banks may not generally require a customer to
obtain other services from the Banks or the Holding Company, and may not require
the customer to promise not to obtain other services from a competitor as a
condition to an extension of credit. The Banks are also subject to certain
restrictions imposed by the Federal Reserve Act on extensions of credit to
executive officers, directors, principal stockholders or any related interest of
such persons. Extensions of credit (i) must be made on substantially the same
terms (including interest rates and collateral) as, and following credit
underwriting procedures that are not less stringent than those prevailing at the
time for, comparable transactions with persons not covered above and who are not
employees and (ii) must not involve more than the normal risk of repayment or
present other unfavorable features. In addition, extensions of credit to such
persons beyond limits set by FRB regulations must be approved by the Board of
Directors. The Banks are also subject to certain lending limits and restrictions
on overdrafts to such persons. A violation of these restrictions may result in
the assessment of substantial civil monetary penalties on the Banks or any
officer, director, employee, agent or other person participating in the conduct
of the affairs of the Banks or the imposition of a cease and desist order.
Applicable law provides the Federal banking agencies with broad powers to take
prompt corrective action to resolve problems of insured depository institutions.
The extent of those powers depends upon whether the institution in question is
"well capitalized," "adequately capitalized," "undercapitalized," "significantly
undercapitalized," or "critically undercapitalized." The Federal banking
agencies have issued uniform regulations defining such capital levels. Under the
regulations, a bank is considered "well capitalized" if it has (i) a total
risk-based capital ratio of 10% or greater, (ii) a Tier 1 risk-based capital
ratio of 6% or greater, (iii) a leverage ratio of 5% or greater and (iv) is not
subject to any order or written directive to meet and maintain a specific
9
<PAGE>
capital level for any capital measure. An "adequately capitalized" bank is
defined as one that has (i) a total risk-based capital ratio of 8% or greater,
(ii) a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 4% or greater, and (iii) a leverage
ratio of 4% or greater (or 3% or greater in the case of a bank with a composite
CAMELS rating of 1). A bank is considered (a) "undercapitalized " if it has (i)
a total risk-based capital ratio of less than 8%, (ii) a Tier 1 risk-based
capitalized ratio of less than 4%, or (iii) a leverage ratio of less than 4% (or
3% in the case of a bank with a composite CAMELS rating of 1); (b)
"significantly undercapitalized" if a bank has (i) a total risk-based capital
ratio of less than 6%, (ii) a Tier 1 risk-based Capital ratio of less than 3% or
(iii) a leverage ratio of less than 3%, and (c) "critically undercapitalized" if
a bank has a ratio of tangible equity to total assets equal to or less than 2%.
At December 31, 1999 and 1998, each Bank met the definition of a
well-capitalized institution.
The deposits of the Banks are insured by the FDIC through the Bank Insurance
Fund (the "BIF") to the extent provided by law. Under the FDIC's risk-based
insurance system, BIF-insured institutions are currently assessed premiums of
between zero and $0.27 per $100 of eligible deposits, depending upon the
institutions capital position and other supervisory factors. Congress has
enacted legislation that, among other things, provides for assessments against
BIF insured institutions that will be used to pay certain financing corporation
("FICO") obligations. In addition to any BIF insurance assessments, BIF-insured
banks are expected to make payments for the FICO obligations equal to an
estimated $0.024 per $100 of eligible deposits each year.
Regulations promulgated by the FDIC pursuant to the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 ("1991 Banking Law") place limitations on
the ability of certain insured depository institutions to accept, renew or
rollover deposits by offering rates of interest which are significantly higher
than the prevailing rates of interest on deposits offered by other depository
institutions having the same type of charter in such depository institutions
normal market area. Under these regulations, well-capitalized institutions may
accept, renew or rollover such deposits without restriction, while adequately
capitalized institutions may accept, renew or rollover such deposits with a
waiver from the FDIC (subject to certain restrictions on payment of rates).
Undercapitalized institutions may not accept, renew or rollover such deposits.
Under the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act of 1989
("FIRREA"), a depository institution insured by the FDIC can be held liable for
any loss incurred by, or reasonably expected to be incurred by, the FDIC in
connection with (i) the default of a commonly controlled FDIC-insured depository
institution or (ii) any assistance provided by the FDIC to a commonly controlled
FDIC-insured institution in danger of default. "Default" is defined generally as
the appointment of a conservator or receiver and "in danger of Default" is
defined generally as the existence of certain conditions indicating that a
"default" is likely to occur in the absence of regulatory assistance. The
Federal Community Reinvestment Act of 1977 ("CRA"), among other things, allows
regulators to withhold approval of an acquisition or the establishment of a
branch unless the applicant has performed satisfactorily under the CRA.
Satisfactory performance means adequately meeting the credit needs of the
communities the institution serves, including low and moderate income areas. The
applicable Federal regulators now regularly conduct CRA examinations to assess
the performance of financial institutions. Intervest Bank has received a
"satisfactory" rating in its most recent CRA examination. Intervest National
Bank will be initially examined for CRA compliance in 2000.
The Federal regulators have adopted regulations and examination procedures
promoting the safety and soundness of individual institutions by specifically
addressing, among other things: (i) internal controls; information systems and
internal audit systems; (ii) loan documentation; (iii) credit underwriting; (iv)
interest rate exposure; (v) asset growth; (vi) ratio of classified assets to
capital; (vii) minimum earnings; and (viii) compensation and benefits standards
for management officials.
The FRB, OCC and other Federal banking agencies have broad enforcement powers,
including the power to terminate deposit insurance, and impose substantial fines
and other civil and criminal penalties and appoint a conservator or receiver.
Failure to comply with applicable laws, regulations and supervisory agreements
could subject the Holding Company or its banking subsidiaries, as well as
officers, directors and other institution-affiliated parties of these
organizations, to administrative sanctions and potentially civil monetary
penalties. In addition, the Florida Department of Banking and Finance possesses
10
<PAGE>
certain enumerated enforcement powers to address violations of the Florida State
Law by state-chartered banks and to preserve safety and soundness, including, in
the most severe cases, the authority to take possession of a state bank.
Interstate Banking and Other Recent Legislation
- -----------------------------------------------
The Riegle-Neal Interstate Banking and Branching Efficiency Act of 1994, enacted
in 1994, facilitates the interstate expansion and consolidation of banking
organizations by permitting bank holding companies that are adequately
capitalized and managed to acquire banks located in states outside their home
states regardless of whether such acquisitions are authorized under the law of
the host state. The Act also permits interstate mergers of banks, with some
limitations and the establishment of new branches on an interstate basis
provided that such action is authorized by the law of the host state. The
Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act was signed by the President on November 12, 1999. This
new legislation will permit banks, securities firms and insurance companies to
affiliate under a common holding company structure. In addition to allowing new
forms of financial services combinations, this Act clarifies how financial
services conglomerates will be regulated by the different federal and state
regulators. Additional legislative and regulatory proposals have been made and
others can be expected. These include proposals designed to improve the overall
the financial stability of the United States Banking System, and to provide for
other changes in the bank regulatory structure, including proposals to reduce
regulatory burdens and baking organizations and to expand the nature of products
and services banks and bank holding companies may offer. It is not possible to
predict whether or in what form these proposals may be adopted in the future
and, if adopted, what their effect will be on the Company.
Monetary Policy and Economic Control
- ------------------------------------
The commercial banking business in which the Company engages is affected not
only by general economic conditions, but also by the monetary policies of the
FRB. Changes in the discount rate on member bank borrowing, availability of
borrowing at the "discount window," open market operations, the imposition of
changes in reserve requirements against member banks' deposits and assets of
foreign branches and the imposition of and changes in reserve requirements
against certain borrowings by banks and their affiliates are some of the
instruments of monetary policy available to the FRB. These monetary policies are
used in varying combinations to influence overall growth and distributions of
bank loans, investments and deposits, and this use may affect interest rates
charged on loans or paid on deposits. The monetary policies of the FRB have had
a significant effect on the operating results of commercial banks and are
expected to continue to do so in the future. The monetary policies of these
agencies are influenced by various factors, including inflation, unemployment,
short-term and long-term changes in the international trade balance and in the
fiscal policies of the United States Government. Future monetary policies and
the effect of such policies on the future business and earnings of the Company
cannot be predicted.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings
The Company is periodically party to or otherwise involved in legal proceedings
arising in the normal course of business, such as claims to enforce liens,
claims involving the making and servicing real property loans, and other issues
incident to the Company's business. Management does not believe that there is
any pending or threatened proceeding against the Company which, if determined
adversely, would have a material effect on the business, results of operations,
or financial position of the Company.
Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
No matter was submitted during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended
December 31, 1999, to a vote of security holders of the Company, through the
solicitation of proxies or otherwise.
PART II
Item 5. Market for Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters
Market for Securities
The Company's Class A common stock is traded over the counter and quoted on the
NASDAQ SmallCap Market under the symbol: IBCA. At December 31, 1999, there were
approximately 800 holders of record of the Company's Class A common stock, which
includes persons or entities who hold their stock in nominee form or in street
name through various brokerage firms. At December 31, 1999, there were four
holders of record of Class B common stock. There is no public-trading market for
the Class B common stock. The high and low sales prices (as obtained from
NASDAQ) for the Class A common stock by calendar quarter for 1998 and 1999 are
as follows:
1999 1998
---- ----
High Low High Low
---- --- ---- ---
First quarter $ 11.00 $ 7.63 $15.25 $11.00
Second quarter $ 19.00 $ 7.81 $16.00 $11.25
Third quarter $ 9.75 $ 7.44 $13.00 $ 8.25
Fourth quarter $ 9.00 $ 5.06 $10.00 $ 8.00
Dividends
Holders of the Holding Company's Class A common stock are entitled to receive
dividends when and if declared by the Board of Directors out of funds legally
available therefor. Dividends may also be declared or paid with respect to
shares of Class B common stock beginning January 1, 2000. The Holding Company
has not paid any cash dividends on its capital stock and there is no immediate
prospect or contemplation of the payment of dividends on its stock. The Holding
Company's ability to pay dividends is generally limited to earnings from the
prior year, although retained earnings and dividends from its subsidiaries may
also be used to pay dividends under certain circumstances. The primary source of
funds for dividends payable by the Holding Company to its shareholders is the
dividends payable to it by the Banks.
12
<PAGE>
The payment of dividends by the Banks is subject to a determination by each
Bank's Board of Directors and is dependent upon a number of factors, including
capital requirements, regulatory limitations, the particular Bank's results of
operations and financial condition, tax considerations of the Banks and the
Holding Company, the number of outstanding shares of stock, and general economic
conditions. There are various legal limitations with respect to the Banks
financing or otherwise supplying funds to the Holding Company. In particular,
under Federal banking law, the Banks may not declare a dividend that exceeds
undivided profits. In addition, the approval of the FRB, the OCC (in the case of
Intervest National Bank) and the Florida Department of Banking and Finance (in
the case of Intervest Bank), is required if the total amount of all dividends
declared in any calendar year exceeds the Bank's net profits for that year,
combined with its retained net profits for the proceeding two years. The FRB
also has the authority to limit further the payment of dividends by the Banks
under certain circumstances. In addition, Federal banking laws prohibit or
restrict each Bank from extending credit to the Holding Company under certain
circumstances. The FRB and the OCC have established certain financial and
capital requirements that affect the ability of banks to pay dividends and also
have the general authority to prohibit banks from engaging in unsafe or unsound
practices in conducting business. Depending upon the financial condition of
either Bank, the payment of cash dividends could be deemed to constitute such an
unsafe or unsound practice.
The FRB and Florida Department of Banking and Finance have publicly stated their
view that it is generally an unsafe and unsound practice to pay cash dividends
except out of current operating earnings. Under FRB policy, a bank holding
company is expected to act as a source of financial strength to its subsidiary
banks and to commit resources to support each such bank. Consistent with this
policy, the FRB has stated that, as a matter of prudent banking, a bank holding
company generally should not pay cash dividends unless the available net
earnings of the bank holding company is sufficient to fully fund the dividends,
and the prospective rate of earnings retention appears to be consistent with a
holding company's capital needs, asset quality and overall financial condition.
The ability of the Banks and the Holding Company to pay cash dividends is
currently, and in the future influenced by regulatory policies or agreements and
by capital guidelines. Accordingly, the actual amount, if any, and timing of
future dividends will depend on, among other things, future earnings, the
financial condition of the Banks and the Holding Company, the amount of cash on
hand at the Holding Company level, outstanding debt obligations and the
requirements imposed by regulatory authorities.

General
Management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of
operations that follows should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated
Financial Statements and Notes thereto beginning on page 34.
Intervest Bancshares Corporation's principal assets are its 100% ownership
interest in Intervest Bank and Intervest National Bank's outstanding capital
stock. Intervest Bancshares Corporation (referred to by itself as the "Holding
Company") and Intervest Bank and Intervest National Bank (referred to together
as the "Banks") are referred to collectively as the "Company" on a consolidated
basis.
Intervest National Bank is a full-service commercial bank located at One
Rockefeller Plaza, Suite 300, New York, New York, 10020. It received its
national charter from the OCC and opened for business on April 1, 1999.
Intervest Bank is a Florida state-chartered commercial bank with four banking
offices in Clearwater, Florida and one in South Pasadena, Florida.
The Holding Company's primary business is the operation of the Banks. It does
not engage in any other substantial business activities other than a limited
amount of real estate mortgage lending. As a result, the Company's consolidated
results of operations are dependent largely upon the Banks' results of
operations. Each Bank conducts a full-service commercial banking business, which
consists of attracting deposits from the general public and investing those
funds, together with other source of funds, primarily through the origination of
commercial and multifamily real estate loans, and through the purchase of
security investments. Intervest National Bank also provides Internet banking
services through its Web Site: www.intervestnatbank.com.
The Company's profitability depends primarily on net interest income, which is
the difference between interest income generated from its interest-earning
assets less the interest expense incurred on its interest-bearing liabilities.
Net interest income is dependent upon the interest-rate spread, which is the
difference between the average yield earned on interest-earning assets and the
average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities. When interest-earning assets
approximate or exceed interest-bearing liabilities, any positive interest rate
spread will generate net interest income. The interest rate spread is impacted
by interest rates, deposit flows and loan demand. Additionally, the Company's
profitability is affected by such factors as the level of its noninterest income
and expenses, the provision for loan loss reserves, and the Company's effective
income tax rate. Noninterest income consists primarily of loan and other banking
fees. Noninterest expense consists of compensation and benefits, occupancy and
equipment related expenses, data processing expenses, advertising expense,
deposit insurance premiums and other operating expenses. The Company's
profitability is also significantly affected by general economic and competitive
conditions, changes in market interest rates, government policies and actions of
regulatory authorities.
In late 1999, Intervest Bancshares Corporation announced that it had agreed to
acquire Intervest Corporation of New York, a company with assets of
approximately $99,000,000, consisting of a portfolio of mortgages on improved
real property and short-term investments, primarily certificates of deposit and
U.S. government agency notes. The combined total assets of the two entities if
they had merged at December 31, 1999 would have been approximately $340,000,000.
The two entities are related in that the same persons serve on their boards and
the holders of all of the shares of Intervest Corporation of New York also own
approximately 48% of the voting shares of Intervest Bancshares Corporation. The
merger was approved by both Boards of Directors, the shareholders of both the
Company and Intervest Corporation of New York, and the Federal Reserve Bank of
Atlanta. In the merger, Intervest Corporation of New York shareholders received
an aggregate of 1,250,000 shares of the Company's Class A common stock in
exchange for all of Intervest Corporation of New York's capital stock. The
merger became effective in March 2000 and will be accounted for at historical
cost similar to the pooling-of-interests method of accounting.

Consolidated earnings for the year ended December 31, 1999 were $1,195,000, or
$0.43 per diluted share, compared to $1,435,000, or $0.46 per diluted share for
1998. The decline in earnings was due to the opening of Intervest National Bank.
The new bank recorded a net loss from operations of $507,000, which included
$444,000 allocated to its initial provision for loan loss reserves as well as a
one-time net charge of $128,000 related to the required adoption, on January 1,
1999, of the AICPA's Statement of Position (SOP) 98-5, "Reporting on the Costs
of Start-Up Activities." The aforementioned items were almost entirely offset by
continued earnings growth from Intervest Bank, whose net earnings rose to
$1,642,000 in 1999, from $1,149,000 in 1998. The Holding Company had net
earnings of $60,000 in 1999, compared to $286,000 in 1998. The decrease was
attributable to the funding of Intervest National Bank's initial capital.
Net Interest and Dividend Income
- --------------------------------
Net interest and dividend income increased to $5,580,000 in 1999, from
$4,637,000 in 1998. The increase was due to growth in the Company's
interest-earning assets and a slight improvement in the net interest rate spread
from 2.20% in 1998, to 2.25% in 1999. Average interest-earning assets grew by
$35,902,000, reflecting the opening of Intervest National Bank.
The Company's net interest margin was 2.73% in 1999, compared to 2.75% in 1998.
The slight decline in the margin was due to a decrease in the ratio of the
Company's average earning-assets to average interest-bearing liabilities from
1.11 in 1998 to 1.10 in 1999, offset almost entirely by a 5 basis point
improvement in the net interest rate spread.
The Company's yield on earning assets declined by 31 basis points primarily due
to the following factors: the very competitive lending environment during 1999
which resulted in originations of new loans at lower rates as well as
prepayments of higher-yielding loans; calls of higher-yielding U.S government
agency securities with the resulting proceeds being invested in securities with
lower rates; and lower rates earned on short-term investments.
The Company's cost of funds declined by 36 basis points due to lower average
rates paid on deposit accounts as well as a change in the mix of deposits.
Lower-cost deposits held in checking, savings and money-market accounts
increased in 1999, while the level of higher-cost time deposits declined. The
decline in the cost of deposits was offset to some degree by the higher-cost
funds obtained through the sale of convertible subordinated debentures by the
Holding Company in June 1998.
The table that follows sets forth information on the Company's average assets,
liabilities and stockholders' equity; yields earned on interest-earning assets;
and rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities for 1999 and 1998. The yields and
rates shown are based on a computation of income/expense for each year divided
by average interest-earning assets/interest-bearing liabilities during each
year. Certain yields and rates shown are adjusted for related fee income or
expense. Average balances are derived from daily balances. Net interest margin
is computed by dividing net interest and dividend income by the average of total
interest-earning assets during each year.

Provision for Loan Loss Reserves
- --------------------------------
The provision for loan loss reserves is based on management's ongoing assessment
of the adequacy of the allowance for loan loss reserves, which takes into
consideration a number of factors, including the level of outstanding loans. The
provision amounted to $830,000 in 1999, compared to $479,000 in 1998. The 1999
provision included $444,000 recorded by Intervest National Bank as its initial
provision for loan loss reserves in conjunction with approximately $42,000,000
of new loan originations. See the section "Comparison of Financial Condition at
December 31, 1999 and December 31, 1998," for additional discussion of the
allowance for loan loss reserves. At December 31, 1999 and 1998, the Company did
not have any nonaccrual or impaired loans.
Noninterest Income
- ------------------
Total noninterest income increased to $456,000 in 1999, from $349,000 in 1998.
The increase was due to higher loan fee income from mortgage lending activities.
Such fees include loan prepayment fees, fees earned on expired commitments, and
loan service, inspection and maintenance charges.
Noninterest Expenses
- --------------------
Noninterest expenses increased to $3,165,000 in 1999, from $2,133,000 in 1998.
The increase was almost entirely due to the opening of Intervest National Bank
on April 1, 1999, which increased compensation expense (due to additional staff)
and occupancy and equipment expenses (due to the leasing of new office space and
fixed asset depreciation).
Provision for Income Taxes
- --------------------------
The provision for income taxes decreased to $718,000 in 1999, from $939,000 in
1998, due to lower pre-tax earnings. The Company's effective tax rate (inclusive
of state and local taxes) amounted to 35.3% in 1999, compared to 39.6% in 1998.
The decline in the rate was due to increased tax benefits from Intervest
National Bank's taxable loss in 1999. The new bank has a higher effective tax
rate resulting from New York State and City taxes. The Company files a
consolidated Federal income tax return, while the Holding Company and Intervest
National Bank file consolidated New York State and City income tax returns.
Intervest Bank files a state income tax return in Florida.
Cumulative Effect of Change in Accounting Principle
- ---------------------------------------------------
The cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle represents the
required adoption, on January 1, 1999, of the AICPA's Statement of Position
(SOP) 98-5, "Reporting on the Costs of Start-Up Activities," which applies to
all companies except as provided for therein. The SOP requires that all start-up
costs (except for those that are capitalizable under other generally accepted
accounting principles) be expensed as incurred for financial statement purposes
effective January 1, 1999. Previously, a portion of start-up costs were
generally capitalized and amortized over a period of time. The adoption of this
statement resulted in the immediate expensing on January 1, 1999 of $193,000 in
start-up costs incurred through December 31, 1998 in connection with organizing
Intervest National Bank. A deferred tax benefit of $65,000 was recorded in
conjunction with this charge.
Comparison of Results of Operations for the Years Ended December 31, 1998 and
1997.
General
- -------
Net earnings for the year ended December 31, 1998 were $1,435,000, compared to
$844,000 for the year ended December 31, 1997. On a diluted per share basis, net
earnings was $0.46 for 1998, compared to $0.41 for 1997. The increase in net
earnings was primarily due to a $1,184,000 increase in net interest and dividend
income and a $213,000 increase in noninterest income. These increases were
partially offset by a higher income tax provision of $452,000, a $227,000
increase in noninterest expenses and an increase in the provision for loan loss
reserves of $127,000.

<PAGE>
Net Interest and Dividend Income
- --------------------------------
The Company's net interest and dividend income increased to $4,637,000 in 1998,
from $3,453,000 in 1997. The increase was due to growth in the Company's
interest-earning assets, partially offset by a decline in the net interest
margin from 2.92% in 1997 to 2.75% in 1998.
The decline in the margin was a function of a lower interest rate spread caused
by a decline in the yield on the Company's earning assets and an increase in its
cost of funds. The yield on earning assets declined by 22 basis points largely
due to a decline in the yield on the loan portfolio as well as an increase in
securities and short-term investments. Securities and short-term investments
have a lower yield than the Company's loan portfolio. The Company's cost of
funds increased by 4 basis points due to higher-cost funds obtained through sale
of the Debentures, partially offset by a slight decline in the average cost for
deposit accounts. The effect of the decrease in the interest rate spread
described above was partially offset by an increase of $7,007,000 in net average
interest-earning assets. This increase was largely due to the investment of the
proceeds from the issuance of common stock as well as the reinvestment of
earnings generated from operations. The table that follows, for the years end
December 31, 1998 and 1997, sets forth the same information that is described
above the table on page 17.

- --------------------------------
The provision for loan loss reserves is based on management's ongoing assessment
of the adequacy of the allowance for loan loss reserves, which takes into
consideration a number of factors, including the level of outstanding loans. The
provision amounted to $479,000 in 1998, compared to $352,000 in 1997. The
increase reflected primarily a higher level of loan originations. See the
section "Comparison of Financial Condition at December 31, 1999 and December 31,
1998," for additional discussion of the allowance for loan loss reserves. At
December 31, 1998 and 1997, the Company did not have any nonaccrual or impaired
loans.
Noninterest Income
- ------------------
Total noninterest income increased to $349,000 in 1998, from $136,000 in 1997.
The increase primarily reflected an increase in service charge fee income as
well as a higher level of loan prepayment fees.
Noninterest Expenses
- --------------------
Noninterest expenses increased to $2,133,000 in 1998, from $1,906,000 in 1997.
The increase was largely due to higher salaries and employee benefits, as well
as an increase in professional fees and services, resulting primarily from the
Company's growth, need for additional staff and normal merit increases.
Provision for Income Taxes
- --------------------------
The provision for income taxes increased to $939,000 in 1998, from $487,000 in
1997, largely due to higher pre-tax earnings. The Company's effective tax rate
(inclusive of state and local taxes) amounted to 39.6% in 1998, compared to
36.6% in 1997. The higher rate for 1998 reflects an increase in the earnings of
the Holding Company, which has a higher state income tax rate than Intervest
Bank.
Financial Condition
Comparison of Financial Condition at December 31, 1999 and December 31, 1998.
Overview
- --------
Total assets increased to $247,829,000 at December 31, 1999, from $200,522,000
at December 31, 1998. Total liabilities increased to $226,365,000 at December
31, 1999, from $180,978,000 at December 31, 1998. The increases were due to the
opening of Intervest National Bank, which resulted in new loan originations and
deposit liabilities. Stockholders' equity grew to $21,464,000 at year-end 1999,
from $19,544,000 at December 31, 1998, reflecting an increase in retained
earnings and the exercise of common stock warrants.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
- -------------------------
Cash and cash equivalents decreased due to the deployment of funds into loans
and security investments.
Securities
- ----------
The Company invests in securities after satisfying its liquidity objectives and
lending commitments. The Company has historically only purchased securities that
are issued by the U.S. government or one of its agencies. Accordingly, the
Company's investments in securities carry lower yields, but also have a
significantly lower credit risk than its loan portfolio. To manage interest rate
risk, the Company normally purchases securities that have adjustable rates or
securities with fixed rates that have short- to intermediate-maturity terms.
Securities for which the Company has the intent and ability to hold to maturity
are classified as held to maturity and carried at amortized cost. Securities
held to maturity totaled $83,132,000 at December 31, 1999, compared to
$82,338,000 at December 31, 1998. The estimated fair value of the
held-to-maturity portfolio was $79,882,000 at December 31, 1999, compared to
$82,173,000 at December 31, 1998. The decline in estimated fair value is
reflective of the higher interest rate environment in the latter part of 1999.
At December 31, 1999, the securities portfolio consisted of fixed-rate debt
obligations of the Federal Home Loan Bank, Federal Farm Credit Bank and Federal
National Mortgage Association. The securities have terms that allow the issuer
the right to call or prepay its obligation without prepayment penalty.
From time to time, the Banks may also maintain a securities available-for-sale
account to provide flexibility in the management of asset/liability strategies.
During 1999 and 1998, there were no securities classified as available for sale.
The Company does not engage in trading activities.
The investment in the capital stock of the Federal Reserve Bank, which pays a
dividend, is required in order for the Banks to be members of the Federal
Reserve Banking System. The amount of the investment, which fluctuates based on
certain criteria, was $508,000 at December 31, 1999, compared to $233,000 at
December 31, 1998. The increase reflected the opening of Intervest National Bank
on April 1, 1999.
21
<PAGE>
Loans Receivable
- ----------------
Loans receivable, before the allowance for loan loss reserves, increased to
$149,647,000 at December 31, 1999, from $97,736,000 at December 31, 1998, due to
new originations of commercial real estate and multifamily loans, partially
offset by principal repayments and sales of loans. In the first quarter of 1999,
four multifamily real estate loans, with an aggregate principal balance of
$5,604,000, held by the Holding Company were sold in order to increase its
liquidity for funding Intervest National Bank's initial capital on April 1,
1999. The loans were sold to Intervest Corporation of New York, a related party,
at the outstanding principal balance plus accrued interest.
At December 31, 1999, the loan portfolio consisted of $92,748,000 of fixed-rate
loans and $57,815,000 of adjustable-rate loans. New mortgage loans on commercial
real estate and multifamily properties are normally originated for terms of no
more than 20 years with interest rates that are predominantly variable rate,
based on the prime rate. Additionally, many loans have an interest rate floor
which resets upward along with any increase in the loan's interest rate. This
feature reduces the loan's interest rate exposure to periods of declining
interest rates.
Commercial real estate and multifamily real estate properties collateralize
almost all of the loans in the Company's loan portfolio. As of December 31,
1999, 97% of the loan portfolio was concentrated in loans collateralized by such
properties, compared to 94% at December 31, 1998. Loan concentrations are
defined as amounts loaned to a number of borrowers engaged in similar
activities, which would cause them to be similarly impacted by economic or other
conditions.
Credit risk, which represents the possibility of the Company not recovering
amounts due from its borrowers, is significantly related to local economic
conditions as well as the Company's underwriting standards. Economic conditions
affect the income levels of borrowers and the market value of the underlying
collateral. In addition, although commercial real estate and multifamily loans
typically bear higher interest rates than 1-4 family residential loans, they
entail certain risks not normally found in 1-4 family residential mortgage
lending. Commercial real estate and multifamily loans usually involve larger
loans to single borrowers. In addition, satisfactory payment experience on loans
secured by income-producing properties (such as office buildings, shopping
centers and rental and cooperative apartment buildings) is largely dependent on
high levels of occupancy. Thus, these loans are more subject to adverse
conditions in the real estate market and economy or specific conditions at or in
the vicinity of the property's location.
The following table sets forth information concerning the Company's loan
portfolio by type of loan:

Nonaccrual Loans
- ----------------
During 1999 and 1998, the Company did not have any loans on a nonaccrual status.
The Company's policy is to discontinue the accrual of interest income and
classify a loan as nonaccrual when principal or interest is past due 90 days or
more and the loan is not adequately collateralized and in the process of
collection, or when in the opinion of the Company's management, principal or
interest is not likely to be paid in accordance with the terms of the loan.
Allowance for Loan Loss Reserves
- --------------------------------
The allowance for loan loss reserves is established through a provision for loan
loss reserves charged to operations. Loans are charged against the allowance for
loan loss reserves when management believes that the collectability of the
principal is unlikely. Subsequent recoveries are added to the allowance. The
adequacy of the allowance is evaluated monthly or more frequently when necessary
with consideration given to: the nature and volume of the loan portfolio;
overall portfolio quality; loan concentrations; specific problem loans and
commitments and estimates of fair value thereof; historical chargeoffs and
recoveries; adverse situations which may affect the borrowers' ability to repay;
and management's perception of the current and anticipated economic conditions
in the Company's lending areas. Although management believes it uses the best
information available to make determinations with respect to the allowance for
loan loss reserves, future adjustments may be necessary if economic conditions,
or other factors, differ from those assumed in the determination of the level of
the allowance.
In addition, SFAS No. 114, as amended by SFAS No. 118, specifies the manner in
which the portion of the allowance for loan loss reserves related to impaired
loans is computed. A loan is normally deemed impaired when, based upon current
information and events, it is probable the Company will be unable to collect
both full principal and interest due according to the contractual terms of the
loan agreement. Impairment for larger balance loans such as commercial real
estate and multifamily loans are measured based on: the present value of
expected future cash flows, discounted at the loan's effective interest rate; or
the observable market price of the loan; or the estimated fair value of the
23
<PAGE>
loan's collateral, if payment of the principal and interest is dependent upon
the collateral. When the fair value of the property is less than the recorded
investment in the loan, this deficiency is recognized as a valuation allowance
within the overall allowance for loan loss reserves and a charge through the
provision for loan loss reserves. The Company normally charges off any portion
of the recorded investment in the loan that exceeds the fair value of the
collateral. The net carrying amount of an impaired loan does not at any time
exceed the recorded investment in the loan.
The Company considers a variety of factors in determining whether a loan is
impaired, including (i) any notice from the borrower that the borrower will be
unable to repay all principal and interest amounts contractually due under the
loan agreement, (ii) any delinquency in the principal and/or interest payments
other than minimum delays or shortfalls in payments, and (iii) other information
known by management that would indicate the full repayment of principal and
interest is not probable. In evaluating loans for impairment, management
generally considers delinquencies of 60 days or less to be minimum delays, and
accordingly does not consider such delinquent loans to be impaired in the
absence of other indications. Impaired loans normally consist of loans on
nonaccrual status.
Management evaluates all commercial real estate, residential mortgage loans and
commercial loans for impairment on a loan-by-loan basis. For smaller balance
homogeneous loans, such as consumer loans, evaluations for impairment is done on
an aggregate basis. The Company utilizes its own historical charge-off
experience as well as the charge off experience of its peer group and industry
statistics to evaluate the adequacy of the allowance for loan loss reserves for
consumer loans. Lastly, the Company's regulators, as an integral part of their
examination process, periodically review the allowance for loan loss reserves.
Accordingly, the Company may be required to take certain chargeoffs and/or
recognize additions to the allowance based on the regulators' judgment
concerning information available to them during their examination.
At December 31, 1999, the Company's allowance for loan loss reserves amounted to
$2,493,000, compared to $1,662,000 at year-end 1998. The increase reflected the
growth in the loan portfolio. During 1999 and 1998, the Company did not have any
loans on a nonaccrual status or classified as impaired. At December 31, 1999 and
1998, the allowance for loan loss reserves was predominately allocated to
commercial real estate and multifamily loans.
The following table sets forth certain information with respect to the Company's
allowance for loan loss reserves:

</TABLE>
All other assets increased due to purchases of fixed assets, primarily by
Intervest National Bank, and an increase in the Company's deferred tax asset.
The tax asset relates primarily to the unrealized tax benefit on the Company's
allowance for loan loss reserves and organizational start-up costs. These
charges have been expensed for financial statement purposes, but are not all
currently deductible for income tax purposes. The ultimate realization of the
deferred tax asset is dependent upon the generation of sufficient taxable income
by the Company during the periods in which these temporary differences become
deductible for tax purposes. Management believes that it is more likely than not
that the Company's deferred tax asset will be realized and accordingly, a
valuation allowance for deferred tax assets was not maintained at any time
during 1999 and 1998.
Deposits
- --------
Deposit liabilities increased to $207,168,000 at December 31, 1999, from
$170,467,000 at December 31, 1998. The increase was attributable to the opening
of Intervest National Bank on April 1, 1999, whose deposit accounts grew to
approximately $47,000,000 at year-end 1999. At December 31, 1999, time deposit
accounts totaled $122,794,000 and demand deposits and savings and checking
accounts aggregated $84,374,000. The same categories of deposit accounts totaled
$99,033,000 and $71,434,000, respectively, at December 31, 1998. Certificates of
deposit accounts represented 59% of total deposits at December 31, 1999,
compared to 58% at year-end 1998.
The Company believes it does not have a concentration of deposits from any one
source. Management believes that a large portion of the Company's depositors are
residents in its primary market areas, although there has been growth in
deposits from outside the primary areas resulting from Intervest National Bank's
deposit-gathering activities through its Web Site on the Internet:
www.intervestnatbank.com. The Company does not accept brokered deposits.

Federal Funds Purchased
- -----------------------
From time to time, the Banks purchase Federal funds to manage liquidity needs.
At December 31, 1999, $6,955,000 of Federal funds purchased were outstanding.
Convertible Debentures
- ----------------------
In June 1998, the Holding Company sold $7,000,000 of Convertible Subordinated
Debentures (the "Debentures") in a public offering. The proceeds from the sale,
net of underwriting discounts, commissions and other fees, amounted to
approximately $6,500,000. The Debentures are due July 1, 2008 and are
convertible at the option of the holders at any time prior to April 1, 2008,
unless previously redeemed by the Holding Company, into shares of Class A common
stock of the Holding Company at various conversion prices. The Holding Company
also has the option at any time to call all or any part of the Debentures for
payment and redeem the same at any time prior to maturity thereof. During 1999,
Debentures in the aggregate principal amount of $70,000 plus accrued interest
were converted into shares of Class A common stock at the election of the
Debenture holders.
Interest on the Debentures accrues and compounds each calendar quarter at 8% and
is payable at the maturity whether by acceleration, redemption or otherwise. Any
debenture holder may, on or before July 1 of each year commencing July 1, 2003,
elect to be paid all accrued interest and to thereafter receive payments of
interest quarterly. For a further discussion of conversion prices and redemption
premiums, see note 7 to the consolidated financial statements.

All other 617 384
------------------------------------------- -------------- ---------------
$5,312 $3,511

</TABLE>
All other liabilities increased primarily due to: an increase in accrued
interest payable on the Debentures (see page 26 for additional discussion); an
increase in official checks outstanding; and an increase in mortgage escrow
funds payable.
Mortgage escrow funds payable represent advance payments made by borrowers for
property taxes and insurance that are remitted by the Company to third parties.
The increase reflects the timing of payments to taxing authorities as well as
the growth in the loan portfolio.
Stockholders' Equity
- --------------------
Stockholders' equity increased due to net earnings of $1,195,000 and the
issuance of 102,364 shares of common stock, which resulted, net of issuance
costs, in a $699,000 aggregate increase in stockholders' equity. The shares were
issued as follows: 7,554 shares of Class A common stock upon the conversion of
convertible debentures; 89,300 shares of Class A common stock upon the exercise
of Class A warrants, 510 shares of Class A common stock in exchange for the
shares of minority shareholders of Intervest Bank, and 5,000 shares of Class B
common stock upon the exercise of Class B stock warrants.

Asset and Liability Management
The Company's primary objective in managing interest-rate risk is to minimize
the adverse impact of changes in interest rates on the Company's net interest
income and capital, while adjusting the Company's asset/liability structure to
maximize the net yield on that structure. The Company relies primarily on its
asset-liability strategy to control interest rate risk. This strategy is
overseen in part through the direction of the Asset and Liability Committee
("ALCO") of the Board of Directors of each Bank, which establishes policies and
monitors results to control interest rate sensitivity.
ALCO examines the extent to which assets and liabilities are "interest-rate
sensitive" and monitors the interest-rate sensitivity "gap." An asset or
liability is normally considered to be interest-rate sensitive if it will
reprice or mature within one year or less. The interest-rate sensitivity gap is
the difference between interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities
scheduled to mature or reprice within a one year time period. A gap is
considered positive when the amount of interest rate-sensitive assets exceeds
the amount of interest rate-sensitive liabilities. Conversely, a gap is
considered negative when the opposite is true.
During a period of rising interest rates, a negative gap would tend to adversely
affect net interest income, while a positive gap would tend to result in an
increase in net interest income. During a period of falling interest rates, a
negative gap would tend to result in an increase in net interest income, while a
positive gap would tend to adversely affect net interest income. If the
repricing of the Company's assets and liabilities were equally flexible and
moved concurrently, the impact of any increase or decrease in interest rates on
net interest income would be minimal.
A simple interest rate "gap" analysis by itself may not be an accurate indicator
of how net interest income will be affected by changes in interest rates due to
the following reasons. Income associated with interest-earning assets and costs
associated with interest-bearing liabilities may not be affected uniformly by
changes in interest rates. In addition, the magnitude and duration of changes in
interest rates may have a significant impact on net interest income. For
example, although certain assets and liabilities may have similar maturities or
periods of repricing, they may react in different degrees to changes in market
interest rates. Interest rates on certain types of assets and liabilities
fluctuate in advance of changes in general market interest rates, while interest
rates on other types may lag behind changes in market rates. In addition,
certain assets, such as adjustable-rate mortgage loans, may have features
generally referred to as "interest rate caps," which limit changes in interest
rates on a short-term basis and over the life of the asset. In the event of a
change in interest rates, asset prepayment and early deposit withdrawal levels
also could deviate significantly from those assumed in calculating the
interest-rate gap. The ability of many borrowers to service their debts also may
decrease in the event of an interest-rate increase, and the behavior of
depositors may be different than those assumed in the gap analysis.
For purposes of creating the gap analysis on page 29, deposits with no stated
maturities are treated as readily accessible accounts. Given this assumption,
the Company's negative one-year interest rate sensitivity gap was 29.7% at
December 31, 1999 and 36.7% at December 31, 1998. However, if those deposits
were treated differently in the gap analysis, then the interest-rate sensitivity
gap would be lower. The behavior of core depositors may not necessarily result
in the immediate withdrawal of funds in the event deposit rates offered by the
Company did not change as quickly and uniformly as changes in general market
rates. For example, if only 25% of deposits with no stated maturity were assumed
to be readily accessible, the Company's negative one-year gap would have been
5.5% at year-end 1999, compared to 11.1% at year-end 1998.
The Company has a "floor," or minimum rate, on many of its floating-rate loans.
The floor for each specific loan is determined in relation to the prevailing
market rates on the date of origination and most adjust upwards in the event of
increases in the loan's interest rate.
28
<PAGE>
Notwithstanding the aforementioned, there can be no assurances that a sudden and
substantial increase in interest rates may not adversely impact the Company's
earnings, to the extent that the interest rates borne by assets and liabilities
do not change at the same speed, to the same extent, or on the same basis.
The following table summarizes information relating to the Company's
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities as of December 31,
1999, that are scheduled to mature or reprice within the periods shown.

Assumptions used in preparing the table above:
<FN>
(1) Adjustable-rate loans are included in the period in which their
interest rates are next scheduled to adjust rather than in the period
in which the loans mature. Fixed-rate loans are scheduled, including
repayments, according to their contractual maturities; (2) securities
are scheduled according to their contractual maturity dates, which does
not take into consideration the effects of possible prepayments that
may result from the issuer's right to call a security before its
contractual maturity date; (3) money market, NOW and savings deposits
are regarded as ready accessible withdrawable accounts; and
certificates of deposit are scheduled through their maturity dates.

</TABLE>
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company manages its liquidity position on a daily basis to assure that funds
are available to meet operations, loan and investment funding commitments,
deposit withdrawals and the repayment of borrowed funds. The Company's primary
sources of funds consist of: retail deposits obtained through the Bank branch
offices and through the mail; amortization, satisfactions and repayments of
loans; the maturities and calls of securities; and cash provided by operating
activities. For additional information concerning the cash flows from the
Company's operating, investing and financing activities, see the consolidated
statements of cash flows included in the financial statements.
At December 31, 1999, the Company's total commitment to lend aggregated
$27,921,000. Based on its cash flow projections, the Company believes that it
can fund all of its outstanding lending commitments from the aforementioned
sources of funds.

Intervest Bank has agreements with correspondent banks whereby it may borrow up
to $8,000,000 on an unsecured basis. There were no outstanding borrowings under
these agreements at December 31, 1999 or 1998.
The Banks are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by
the Federal banking agencies. The FDIC Improvement Act of 1991, among other
matters, established five capital categories ranging from well capitalized to
critically undercapitalized. Such classifications are used by the FDIC and other
bank regulatory agencies to determine various matters, including prompt
corrective action and each institution's FDIC deposit insurance premium
assessments. The capital categories involve quantitative measures of a bank's
assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under
regulatory accounting practices. The Banks' capital amounts and classifications
are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components,
risk weightings, and other factors. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements
can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by
the regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the
Company's consolidated financial statements.
The Banks are required to maintain, for regulatory compliance and reporting
purposes, regulatory defined minimum leverage and Tier 1 and total risk-based
capital ratio levels of at least 4%, 4% and 8%, respectively. At December 31,
1999, management believes that the Banks met their capital adequacy
requirements. The Banks are well-capitalized institutions as defined in the
regulations, which require minimum Tier 1 leverage and Tier 1 and total
risk-based ratios of 5%, 6% and 10%, respectively. Management believes that
there are no current conditions or events outstanding which would change the
Banks' designations as well-capitalized institutions.
Information regarding the Banks' regulatory capital and related ratios is
summarized below:

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Refer to note 1 to the notes to the consolidated financial statements for a
discussion of this topic as well as page 18 for a discussion of the new
accounting principle related to start-up costs.
Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices
The financial statements and related financial data concerning the Company
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. The primary
impact of inflation on the operations of the Company is reflected in increased
operating costs. Unlike most industrial companies, virtually all of the assets
and liabilities of a financial institution are monetary in nature. As a result,
changes in interest rates have a more significant impact on the performance of a
financial institution than do the effects of changes in the general rate of
inflation and changes in prices. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the
same direction or in the same magnitude as the prices of goods and services.

Market Risk
Market risk is the risk of loss that can occur from adverse changes in market
prices and rates. The Company's market risk arises primarily from interest rate
risk inherent in its lending and deposit gathering activities. To that end,
management actively monitors and manages its interest rate risk exposure. The
measurement of market risk associated with financial instruments is meaningful
only when all related and offsetting on-and off-balance sheet transactions are
aggregated, and the resulting net positions are identified. Disclosures about
the fair value of financial instruments as of December 31, 1999 and 1998, which
reflect changes in market prices and rates, can be found in Note 19 of the notes
to consolidated financial statements.
The Company's primary objective in managing interest-rate risk is to minimize
the adverse impact of changes in interest rates on the Company's net interest
income and capital, while adjusting the Company's asset/liability structure to
maximize the net yield on that structure. The Company relies primarily on its
asset-liability strategy to control interest rate risk. This strategy is
overseen in part through the direction of the Asset and Liability Committees of
the Board of Directors of each Bank, which establishes policies and monitors
results to control interest rate sensitivity. For a further discussion, of asset
and liability management, see page 28.
Year 2000 Issue
The Year 2000 issue is the result of computer programs that were written using
two digits rather than four digits to define the applicable year. As a result,
such programs may recognize a date using "00" as the year 1900 instead of the
year 2000, which could result in system failures or miscalculations. Prior to
January 1, 2000, the Company had completed all upgrades necessary to ensure that
its operating and financial systems were Year 2000 compliant. The Company has
not determined what effect, if any, the Year 2000 issue has had on its customers
and vendors. To date, the Company has not experienced any problems as a result
of the Year 2000 issue. Expenses incurred by the Company related to the Year
2000 issue have not been material.

Independent Auditors' Report
Board of Directors and Stockholders
Intervest Bancshares Corporation
New York, New York:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of
Intervest Bancshares Corporation and Subsidiaries (the "Company") at
December 31, 1999 and 1998 and the related consolidated statements of
earnings, changes in stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the years
then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well
as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe
that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above
fairly present, in all material respects, the financial position of the
Company at December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the results of its
operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles.
As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the
Company changed its method of accounting for organizational and
preopening costs. Effective January 1, 1999, the Company adopted AICPA
Statement of Position 98-5 "Reporting on the Costs of Start-Up
Activities."

1. Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Description of Business
Intervest Bancshares Corporation (the "Holding Company") was
incorporated on February 5, 1993 and is headquartered in New York City.
At December 31, 1999, the Holding Company owns 100% of the outstanding
common and preferred stock of Intervest Bank and 100% of the oustanding
common stock of Intervest National Bank. Hereafter, the Holding
Company, Intervest Bank and Intervest National Bank are referred to
collectively as the "Company," on a consolidated basis. The Holding
Company's primary business is the ownership of Intervest Bank and
Intervest National Bank (the "Banks.")
Intervest National Bank is a full-service commercial bank located at
One Rockefeller Plaza, Suite 300, New York, New York, 10020. It
received its national charter from the Office of the Comptroller of the
Currency and opened for business on April 1, 1999. Intervest Bank is a
Florida state-chartered commercial bank with four banking offices in
Clearwater, Florida and one in South Pasadena, Florida. Each Bank
conducts a full-service commercial banking business, which consists of
attracting deposits from the general public and investing those funds,
together with other source of funds, primarily through the origination
of commercial and multifamily real estate loans, and through the
purchase of security investments. Intervest National Bank also provides
Internet banking services at its Web Site www.intervestnatbank.com.
Principles of Consolidation, Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Holding Company and the Banks. All significant intercompany balances
and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain
reclassifications have been made to prior year amounts to conform to
the current year's presentation. The accounting and reporting policies
of the Company conform to generally accepted accounting principles and
to general practices within the banking industry.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is
required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent
liabilities, as of the date of the financial statements and revenues
and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ
from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly
susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the
determination of the allowance for loan loss reserves.
Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the statements of cash flows, cash equivalents include
Federal funds sold and short-term investments. Federal funds are
generally sold for one-day periods and short-term investments have
maturities of three months or less.
Securities
Securities for which the Company has the ability and intent to hold
until maturity are classified as securities held to maturity and are
carried at cost, adjusted for accretion of any discounts and
amortization of premiums, which are recognized into interest income
using the interest method over the period to maturity. Securities that
are held for indefinite periods of time which management intends to use
as part of its asset/liability management strategy, or that may be sold
in response to changes in interest rates or other factors, are
classified as available for sale and are carried at fair value.
Unrealized gains and losses, net of related income taxes, are reported
as a separate component of comprehensive income. Realized gains and
losses from sales are determined using the specific identification
method.

1. Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,
Continued
Loans Receivable
Loans that the Company has the intent and ability to hold for the
foreseeable future or until maturity or satisfaction are carried at
their outstanding principal net of chargeoffs, the allowance for loan
loss reserves, unamortized discounts and deferred loan origination fees
or costs. Loan origination and commitment fees, net of certain costs,
are deferred and amortized to interest income as an adjustment to the
yield of the related loans over the contractual life of the loans using
the interest method. When a loan is paid off or sold, or if a
commitment expires unexercised, any unamortized net deferred amount is
credited or charged to earnings as appropriate.
Loans are placed on nonaccrual status when principal or interest
becomes 90 days or more past due. Accrued interest receivable
previously recognized is reversed when a loan is placed on nonaccrual
status. Amortization of net deferred fee income is discontinued for
loans placed on nonaccrual status. Interest payments received on loans
in nonaccrual status are recognized as income on a cash basis unless
future collections of principal are doubtful, in which case the
payments received are applied as a reduction of principal. Loans remain
on nonaccrual status until principal and interest payments are current.
Allowance for Loan Loss Reserves
The allowance for loan loss reserves is netted against loans receivable
and is increased by provisions charged to operations and decreased by
chargeoffs (net of recoveries). The adequacy of the allowance is
evaluated monthly with consideration given to: the nature and volume of
the loan portfolio; overall portfolio quality; loan concentrations;
specific problem loans and commitments and estimates of fair value
thereof; historical chargeoffs and recoveries; adverse situations which
may affect the borrowers' ability to repay; and management's perception
of the current and anticipated economic conditions in the Company's
lending areas. In addition, SFAS No. 114 specifies the manner in which
the portion of the allowance for loan loss reserves is computed related
to certain loans that are impaired. A loan is normally deemed impaired
when, based upon current information and events, it is probable the
Company will be unable to collect both principal and interest due
according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Impaired
loans normally consist of loans on nonaccrual status. Interest income
on impaired loans is recognized on a cash basis. Impairment for
commercial real estate and residential loans is measured based on: the
present value of expected future cash flows, discounted at the loan's
effective interest rate; or the observable market price of the loan; or
the estimated fair value of the loan's collateral, if payment of the
principal and interest is dependent upon the collateral.
When the fair value of the property is less than the recorded
investment in the loan, this deficiency is recognized as a valuation
allowance within the overall allowance for loan loss reserves and a
charge through the provision for loan losses. The Company normally
charges off any portion of the recorded investment in the loan that
exceeds the fair value of the collateral. The net carrying amount of an
impaired loan does not at any time exceed the recorded investment in
the loan.
Lastly, the Company's regulators, as an integral part of their
examination process, periodically review the allowance for loan loss
reserves. Accordingly, the Company may be required to take certain
chargeoffs and/or recognize additions to the allowance based on the
regulators' judgment concerning information available to them during
their examination.

Premises and Equipment
Land is carried at cost. Buildings, leasehold improvements and
furniture, fixtures and equipment are carried at cost, less accumulated
depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is computed using the
straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset.
Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method
over the terms of the related leases, or the useful life of the asset,
whichever is shorter. Maintenance, repairs and minor improvements are
charged to operating expense as incurred, while major improvements are
capitalized.
Stock Based Compensation
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation," establishes a "fair value" based method of
accounting for stock-based compensation plans and encourages all
entities to adopt that method of accounting for all their stock-based
compensation plans. However it also allows an entity to continue to
measure compensation cost for those plans using the intrinsic
value-based method of accounting prescribed by Accounting Principles
Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees." The
Company has elected to follow APB No. 25 and related interpretations in
accounting for its stock-based compensation, which is in the form of
stock warrants. Statement 123 requires pro forma disclosures of net
earnings and earnings per share determined as if the Company accounted
for its stock warrants under the fair value method.
Advertising Costs
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred.
Income Taxes
Under SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," deferred tax assets
and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax
consequences attributable to temporary differences between the
financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities
and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are
measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in
the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be
recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities
of a change in tax law or rates is recognized in income in the period
that includes the enactment date of change. A valuation allowance is
recorded if it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the
deferred tax assets will not be realized based on a review of available
evidence.
Earnings Per Share (EPS)
Basic EPS is calculated by dividing net earnings by the
weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted
EPS is calculated by dividing adjusted net earnings by the
weighted-average number of shares of common stock and dilutive
potential common stock shares that may be outstanding in the future.
Potential common stock shares consist of outstanding dilutive common
stock warrants (which are computed using the "treasury stock method")
and convertible debentures (computed using the "if converted method").
Diluted EPS considers the potential dilution that could occur if the
Company's outstanding stock warrants and convertible debentures were
converted into common stock that then shared in the Company's earnings
(as adjusted for interest expense that would no longer occur if the
debentures were converted).

1. Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,

Foreclosed Real Estate
Real estate properties acquired through, or in lieu of, loan
foreclosure are to be sold. Upon foreclosure of the property, the
related loan is transferred from the loan portfolio to foreclosed real
estate at the lower of the loan's carrying value at the date of
transfer, or estimated fair value of the property less estimated
selling costs. Such amount becomes the new cost basis of the property.
Adjustments made to the carrying value at the time of transfer are
charged to the allowance for loan loss reserves. After foreclosure,
management periodically performs market valuations and the real estate
is carried at the lower of cost or estimated fair value less estimated
selling costs. Revenue and expenses from operations and changes in the
valuation allowance of the property are included in the consolidated
statement of earnings.
Off-Balance Sheet Financial Instruments
In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into off-balance
sheet financial instruments consisting of commitments to extend credit,
unused lines of credit and standby letters of credit. Such financial
instruments are recorded in the consolidated financial statements when
they are funded or related fees are incurred or received.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Accounting for Start-Up Costs. On January 1, 1999, the Company adopted
as required the AICPA's Statement of Position (SOP) 98-5, "Reporting
on the Costs of Start-Up Activities." The SOP requires that all
start-up costs (except for those that are capitalizable under other
generally accepted accounting principles) be expensed as incurred for
financial statement purposes effective January 1, 1999. Previously, a
portion of start-up costs were generally capitalized and amortized
over a period of time. The adoption of this statement resulted in a
net charge of $128,000 on January 1, 1999. The charge represents the
expensing, net of a tax benefit, of cumulative start-up costs that had
been incurred through December 31, 1998 in connection with organizing
Intervest National Bank.
Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. In June
1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133 "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS No. 133
establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative
instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other
contracts and for hedging activities. In June 1999, the FASB issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 137 "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - Deferral of the
Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 133." SFAS No. 137 delays SFAS No.
133' s effective date to all fiscal quarters of all fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 2000.
Since the Company does not currently use derivative financial
instruments, the standard will not have any impact on the Company's
financial statements when adopted.
Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for
Internal Use. On January 1, 1999 the Company adopted the AICPA's SOP
98-1, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or
Obtained for Internal Use." The SOP, among other things, provides
guidance as to when and what types of costs should be capitalized as it
relates to internal-use software. The adoption of this statement did
not have any impact on the Company's financial statements.

Credit risk, which represents the possibility of the Company not
recovering amounts due from its borrowers, is significantly related to
local economic conditions as well as the Company's underwriting
standards. Economic conditions affect the income levels of borrowers
and the market value of the underlying collateral. In addition,
although commercial real estate and multifamily loans typically bear
higher interest rates than 1-4 family residential loans, they entail
certain risks not normally found in 1-4 family residential mortgage
lending. Commercial real estate and multifamily loans usually involve
larger loans to single borrowers. In addition, satisfactory payment
experience on loans secured by income-producing properties (such as
office buildings, shopping centers and rental and cooperative apartment
buildings) is largely dependent on high levels of occupancy. Thus,
these loans are more subject to adverse conditions in the real estate
market and economy or specific conditions at or in the vicinity of the
property's location.

7. Convertible Debentures
In June 1998, the Holding Company sold Convertible Subordinated
Debentures (the "Debentures") in the aggregate principal amount of
$7,000,000 in a public offering. The proceeds from the sale, net of
underwriting discounts and other fees, amounted to approximately
$6,500,000. The Debentures are due July 1, 2008 and are convertible at
the option of the holders at any time prior to April 1, 2008, unless
previously redeemed by the Holding Company, into shares of Class A
common stock of the Holding Company at the following current conversion
prices per share: $10.00 in 1999; $12.50 in 2000; $14.00 in 2001;
$15.00 in 2002; $16.00 in 2003; $18.00 in 2004; $21.00 in 2005; $24.00
in 2006; $27.00 in 2007 and $30.00 from January 1, 2008 through April
1, 2008. The Holding Company has the right to establish conversion
prices that are less than those set forth above for such periods as it
may determine. On January 13, 1999, the conversion prices were adjusted
downward from those set at the original offering date to the prices
shown above.
The Holding Company also has the option at any time to call all or any
part of the Debentures for payment and redeem the same at any time
prior to maturity thereof. The redemption price for the Debentures is
the face amount plus a 1% premium if redemption occurs before July 1,
2000, or the face amount if the date of redemption is on or after July
1, 2000.
Interest on the Debentures will accrue and compound each calendar
quarter at 8%. All accrued interest is payable at the maturity of the
Debentures whether by acceleration, redemption or otherwise. Any
Debenture holder may, on or before July 1 of each year commencing July
1, 2003, elect to be paid all accrued interest and to thereafter
receive payments of interest quarterly.
During 1999, Debentures in the aggregate principal amount of $70,000,
plus accrued interest, were converted into shares of Class A common
stock at the election of the Debenture holders. The conversion price
was $10 per share, which resulted in 7,554 shares of Class A common
stock being issued in connection with the conversions.
8. Other Borrowed Funds
From time to time, the Banks purchase Federal funds to manage
liquidity needs. At December 31, 1999, $6,955,000 of overnight Federal
funds were outstanding. These funds had an interest rate of 5.18%.
Intervest Bank also has agreements with correspondent banks whereby it
may borrow up to $8,000,000 on an unsecured basis. There were no
outstanding borrowings under these agreements at December 31, 1999 or
1998.
9. Stockholders' Equity
The Holding Company's Board of Directors is authorized to issue up to
300,000 shares of preferred stock of the Holding Company without
stockholder approval. The powers, preferences and rights, and the
qualifications, limitations, and restrictions thereof on any series of
preferred stock issued is determined by the Board of Directors. At
December 31, 1999 and 1998, there was no preferred stock issued and
outstanding.
Class A and B common stock have equal voting rights as to all matters,
except that, so long as at least 50,000 shares of Class B common stock
remain issued and outstanding, the holders of the outstanding shares of
Class B common stock are entitled to vote for the election of
two-thirds of the Board of Directors (rounded up to the nearest whole
number), and the holders of the outstanding shares of Class A common
stock are entitled to vote for the remaining Directors of the Holding
Company. The shares of Class B common stock are convertible, on a
share-for-share basis, into Class A common stock at any time after
January 1, 2000.

10. Asset and Dividend Restrictions
The Banks are required under Federal Reserve Board regulations to
maintain reserves, generally consisting of cash or noninterest-earning
accounts, against its transaction accounts. At December 31, 1999 and
1998, balances maintained as reserves were not material.
As a member of the Federal Reserve Banking system, the Banks must
maintain an investment in the capital stock of the Federal Reserve
Bank. At December 31, 1999 and 1998, such investment, which earns a
dividend, aggregated to $508,000 and $233,000, respectively. At
December 31, 1999, U.S. government agency securities with a carrying
value of $5,500,000 were pledged against Federal Funds Purchased. See
note 8 "Other Borrowed Funds."
The payment of dividends by the Holding Company and by the Banks to the
Holding Company is subject to various regulatory restrictions. These
restrictions take into consideration various factors such as whether
there are sufficient net earnings, as defined, liquidity, asset
quality, capital adequacy and economic conditions. Additionally, no
dividends may be declared or paid with respect to shares of Class B
common stock until January 1, 2000, after which time the holders of
Class A common stock and Class B common stock will share ratably in any
dividend. The Holding Company has never paid a common dividend to its
shareholders and currently has no intentions of paying a common
dividend.
11. Profit Sharing Plans
The Banks sponsor tax-qualified, profit sharing plans in accordance
with the provisions of Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code.
Each plan is available to each Bank's employees who elect to
participate after meeting certain length-of-service requirements. The
Banks' contributions to the profit sharing plans are discretionary and
are determined annually. Total expense related to the contributions to
the plans included in the consolidated financial statements aggregated
$25,000 and $22,000 for 1999 and 1998, respectively.
12. Related Party Transactions
Intervest Bank has made loans to certain of its directors and their

(1) At December 31, 1999, 14,200 of these warrants were immediately
exercisable. An additional 7,100 warrants vest and become exercisable
on each April 27th of 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003 and the remaining 7,400 on
April 27, 2004. The warrants, which expire on January 31, 2008, become
fully vested earlier upon certain conditions.
</FN>
</TABLE>
The Company uses the intrinsic value-based method prescribed under APB
Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," in
accounting for its stock warrants. Under this method, compensation
expense related to stock warrants is the excess, if any, of the market
price of the stock as of the grant date over the exercise price of the
warrant. The exercise price of the Class B warrants granted in 1998 was
below the market price of the common shares at the date of grant.
Therefore, in accordance with APB Opinion No. 25, approximately $26,000
and $43,000 was included in salaries and employee benefits expense for
1999 and 1998, respectively, in connection with these warrants. No
compensation expense was recorded related to the remaining stock
warrants granted in 1998 because their exercise prices were the same as
the market price of the common shares at the date of grant.

Had compensation expense been determined based on the estimated fair
value of the warrants at the grant date in accordance with SFAS No.
123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," the Company's net
earnings and earnings per share would have been reduced to the pro
forma amounts as follows:
<TABLE>

--------------------------------------------------------------- --------------- -------------------
<FN>
(1) Pro forma net earnings for 1998 does not reflect the full
impact of calculating compensation expense related to Class B
stock warrants granted in 1998, since the total expense
calculated under SFAS No.123 is apportioned over the vesting
period of those warrants.
</FN>
</TABLE>
The per share weighted-average estimated fair value of 172,000 stock
warrants granted to employees and directors in 1998 was $3.63 on the
date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The
following weighted-average assumptions were used: no expected
dividends; expected life of 2.9 years, expected price volatility of 25%
and a 5.5% risk-free interest rate. For 1999, a fair value calculation
for the 1000 warrants issued was not performed because the impact was
not significant. The assumptions used are subjective in nature, involve
uncertainties and cannot be determined with precision.
14. Income Taxes
The Holding Company and its subsidiaries file a consolidated federal
income tax return on a calendar year basis. The Holding Company also
files consolidated income tax returns with Intervest National Bank in
New York State and New York City. In addition, the Holding Company also
files a state income tax return in New Jersey and a franchise tax
return in Delaware. Intervest Bank files a state income tax return in
Florida. At December 31, 1999 and 1998, the Company had a net deferred
tax asset of $912,000 and $579,000, respectively. The asset relates to
the unrealized benefit for: net temporary differences between the
financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities
and their respective tax bases that will result in future tax
deductions. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets,
management considers whether it is more likely than not that some
portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The
ultimate realization of such assets is dependent upon the generation of
sufficient taxable income during the periods in which those temporary
differences become deductible. Management believes that it is more
likely than not that the Company's deferred tax asset will be realized
and accordingly, a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets was not
maintained at any time during 1999 and 1998.
The total tax expense (benefit) is as follows:

price of $10.00 and $14.00, respectively, were not included in the
computation of diluted EPS for 1999 because their exercise price was
greater than the average market price of the common stock during 1999.
In addition, the Debentures were also excluded from the diluted
computation for 1999 because they were not dilutive. A total of 122,000
common stock warrants with an exercise price of $10.00 were not
included in the computation of diluted EPS for 1998 because their
exercise price was greater than the average market price of the common
stock during 1998.
16. Contingencies
The Company is periodically party to or otherwise involved in legal
proceedings arising in the normal course of business, such as claims to
enforce liens, claims involving the making and servicing real property
loans, and other issues incident to the Company's business. Management
does not believe that there is any pending or threatened proceeding
against the Company which, if determined adversely, would have a
material effect on the business, results of operations, or financial
position of the Company.
17. Regulatory Matters
The Holding Company and the Banks are subject to regulation,
examination and supervision by the Federal Reserve Bank. The Banks are
also subject to regulation, examination and supervision Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation. In addition, Intervest Bank is subject to the
regulation, examination and supervision of the Florida Department of
Banking and Finance, while the Office of the Comptroller of the
Currency regulates Intervest National Bank.

17. Regulatory Matters, Continued
The Company (on a consolidated basis) and the Banks are subject to
various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal
banking agencies. Failure to meet capital requirements can initiate
certain mandatory and possibly discretionary actions by the regulators
that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the
Company's and the Banks' financial statements. Under capital adequacy
guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action,
the Company and the Banks must meet specific capital guidelines that
involve quantitative measures of their assets, liabilities and certain
off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting
practices. These capital amounts are also subject to qualitative
judgement by the regulators about components, risk weighting and other
factors. Prompt corrective action provisions are not applicable to bank
holding companies.
Quantitative measures established by the regulations to ensure capital
adequacy require the Company and the Banks to maintain minimum amounts
and ratios of total and Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets and of
Tier 1 capital to average assets, as defined by the regulations.
Management believes, as of December 31, 1999 and 1998, that the
Company, Intervest Bank and Intervest National Bank (as of December 31,
1999 only) met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are
subject.
As of December 31, 1999, the most recent notification from the
regulators categorized the Banks as well-capitalized institutions under
regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, which requires
minimum Tier 1 leverage and Tier 1 and total risk-based capital ratios
of 5%, 6% and 10%, respectively. Management believes that there are no
current conditions or events outstanding that would change the
designations from well capitalized.
The tables below present information regarding the Company's
(consolidated) and the Banks' capital adequacy.

18. Off-Balance Sheet Financial Instruments
The Company is party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet
risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of
its customers. These financial instruments are in the form of
commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit, and may
involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk
in excess of the amounts recognized in the consolidated balance sheets.
The contract amounts of these instruments reflect the extent of
involvement the Company has in these financial instruments. The
Company's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the
other party to the off-balance sheet financial instruments is
represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Company
uses the same credit policies in making commitments as it does for
on-balance sheet instruments.
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend funds to a customer
as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the
contract. Such commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or
other termination clauses and may require payment of fees. Since some
of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the
total commitment amount does not necessarily represent future cash
requirements. The Company evaluates each customer's credit worthiness
on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed
necessary by the Company upon extension of credit, is based on
management's credit evaluation of the counterparty. Standby letters of
credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee
the performance of a customer to a third party. The credit risk
involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that
involved in extending loans to customers.

19. Estimated Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time based on
available information about each financial instrument. Where available,
quoted market prices are used. However, a significant portion of the
Company's financial instruments, such as commercial real estate and
multifamily loans, do not have an active marketplace in which they can
be readily sold or purchased to determine fair value. Consequently,
fair value estimates for such instruments are based on assumptions made
by management that include the financial instrument's credit risk
characteristics and future estimated cash flows and prevailing interest
rates. As a result, these fair value estimates are subjective in
nature, involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and
therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Accordingly, changes in
any of management's assumptions could cause the fair value estimates to
deviate substantially. The fair value estimates also do not reflect any
additional premium or discount that could result from offering for
sale, at one time, the Company's entire holdings of a particular
financial instrument, nor estimated transaction costs. Further, the tax
ramifications related to the realization of unrealized gains and losses
can have a significant effect on and have not been considered in the
fair value estimates. Finally, fair value estimates do not attempt to
estimate the value of anticipated future business, the Company's
customer relationships, branch network, and the value of assets and
liabilities that are not considered financial instruments, such as core
deposit intangibles and premises and equipment.
The carrying and estimated fair values of the Company's financial
instruments are summarized as follows:

19. Estimated Fair Value of Financial Instruments, Continued
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair
value of each class of financial instruments:
Securities. The estimated fair value of securities held to maturity are
based on quoted market prices. The carrying value of the Federal
Reserve Bank stock approximated fair value since these securities do
not present credit concerns and are redeemable at cost.
Loans Receivable. The estimated fair value of variable rate loans that
reprice frequently and have no significant change in credit risk since
origination approximates their carrying values. For fixed-rate loans
(one-to-four family residential, commercial real estate and commercial
loans), estimated fair value is based on a discounted cash flow
analysis, using interest rates currently being offered for loans with
similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality.
Management can make no assurance that its perception and quantification
of credit risk would be viewed in the same manner as that of a
potential investor. Therefore, changes in any of management's
assumptions could cause the fair value estimates of loans to deviate
substantially.
Deposits. The estimated fair value of deposits with no stated maturity,
such as savings, money market, checking and noninterest-bearing demand
deposit accounts approximates carrying value. The estimated fair value
of certificates of deposit are based on the discounted value of their
contractual cash flows. The discount rate used in the present value
computation was estimated by comparison to current interest rates
offered by the Banks for certificates of deposit with similar remaining
maturities.
Convertible Debentures. The estimated fair value of the convertible
debentures and related accrued interest is based on a discounted cash
flow analysis. The discount rate used in the present value computation
was estimated by comparison to what management believes to be the
Holding Company's incremental borrowing rate for a similar arrangement.
All Other Financial Assets and Liabilities. The carrying value of cash
and due from banks, Federal funds sold and purchased, short-term
investments and accrued interest receivable and payable approximated
fair value since these instruments are payable on demand or have
short-term maturities.
Off-Balance Sheet Instruments. The carrying amounts of commitments to
lend approximated estimated fair value.

Intervest Bancshares Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
For the Years Ended December 31, 1999 and 1998
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
22. Year 2000 Issue
The Year 2000 issue is the result of computer programs that were
written using two digits rather than four digits to define the
applicable year. As a result, such programs may recognize a date using
"00" as the year 1900 instead of the year 2000, which could result in
system failures or miscalculations. Prior to January 1, 2000, the
Company had completed all upgrades necessary to ensure that its
operating and financial systems were Year 2000 compliant. The Company
has not determined what effect, if any, the Year 2000 issue has had on
its customers and vendors. To date, the Company has not experienced any
problems as a result of the Year 2000 issue. Expenses incurred by the
Company related to the Year 2000 issue have not been material.
23. Merger
In late 1999, Intervest Bancshares Corporation announced that it had
agreed to acquire Intervest Corporation of New York, a company with
assets of approximately $99,000,000, consisting of a portfolio of
mortgages on improved real property and short-term investments,
primarily certificates of deposit and U.S. government agency notes. The
combined total assets of the two entities if they had merged at
December 31, 1999 would have been approximately $340,000,000.
The two entities are related in that the same persons serve on their
boards and the holders of all of the shares of Intervest Corporation of
New York also own approximately 48% of the voting shares of Intervest
Bancshares Corporation. The merger was approved by both Boards of
Directors, the shareholders of both the Company and Intervest
Corporation of New York, and the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta. In
the merger, Intervest Corporation of New York shareholders received an
aggregate of 1,250,000 shares of the Company's Class A common stock in
exchange for all of Intervest Corporation of New York's capital stock.
The merger became effective in March 2000 and will be accounted for at
historical cost similar to the pooling-of-interests method of
accounting.
