(1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
ORGANIZATION
Greater Rome Bancshares, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated for the purpose
of becoming a bank holding company. On November 17, 1995, the Company acquired
100% of the outstanding common stock of Greater Rome Bank (the "Bank"), which
operates in the Rome/Floyd County areas.
Operations through December 31, 1995 relate primarily to expenditures for
incorporating and organizing the Company.
On February 26, 1996, the Bank opened for business to serve the Rome/Floyd
County area as a commercial bank. The Bank is chartered and regulated by the
State of Georgia Department of Banking and Finance and is insured by and subject
to regulation by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.
The Company raised $7,000,000 through a public offering of its common stock
at $10 per share and capitalized the Bank by investing $6,500,000 in its common
stock during the fourth quarter of 1995. As of the balance sheet date,
organizers owned 189,927 shares, representing 27.1% of the total
outstanding shares.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and
the Bank. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation. The financial statements of the Company through December 31,
1995 were presented as a Development Stage Corporation.
The accounting principles followed by the Company and its subsidiary, and the
method of applying these principles, conform with generally accepted accounting
principles (GAAP) and with general practices within the banking industry. In
preparing financial statements in conformity with GAAP, management is required
to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the
financial statements. Actual results could differ significantly from those
estimates. Material estimates common to the banking industry that are
particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term include, but are
not limited to, the determination of the allowance for loan losses, the
valuation of real estate acquired in connection with foreclosures or in
satisfaction of loans, and valuation allowances associated with the realization
of deferred tax assets which are based on future taxable income.
CASH FLOWS
For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash consists of amounts due from banks
that are not restricted as to their use and overnight interest-bearing deposits
with other banks.

INVESTMENT SECURITIES
The Company classifies its securities in one of three categories: trading,
available for sale, or held to maturity. Trading securities are bought and held
principally for sale in the near term. Held to maturity securities are those
securities for which the Company has the ability and intent to hold the security
until maturity. All other securities not included in trading or held to
maturity are classified as available for sale. The Company's current investment
policy prohibits trading activity.
Held to maturity securities are recorded at cost, adjusted for the amortization
or accretion of premiums or discounts. Available for sale securities are
recorded at fair value and unrealized holding gains and losses are recorded as a
separate component of stockholders' equity. Transfers of securities between
categories are recorded at fair value at the date of transfer. Unrealized
holding gains or losses associated with transfers of securities from held to
maturity to available for sale are recorded as a separate component of
stockholders' equity.
A decline in the market value of any held to maturity investment below cost that
is deemed other than temporary is charged to earnings and establishes a new cost
basis for the security.
Premiums and discounts are amortized or accreted over the life of the related
security as an adjustment to the yield. Realized gains and losses are included
in earnings and are derived using the specific identification method for
determining the cost of securities sold.
PREMISES AND EQUIPMENT
Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Major
additions and improvements are charged to the property accounts while
replacements, maintenance and repairs which do not improve or extend the life of
respective assets are expensed currently. When property is retired or otherwise
disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are remove from the
accounts and the resulting gain or loss, if any, is recognized. Depreciation
expense is computed principally on the straight-line method over the estimated
useful lives of the assets.
Depreciation expense is computed using the straight-line method over the
following estimated useful lives:
Land improvements 1 - 20 years
Building and improvements 12 - 30 years
Furniture, fixtures and equipment 3 - 12 years
ORGANIZATION COSTS
Costs incurred for the organization of the Company and the Bank (consisting
principally of legal, accounting, consulting and incorporation fees) were
capitalized and are being amortized over five years.

DEFERRED OFFERING EXPENSES
Costs incurred in connection with the stock offering, consisting of direct,
incremental costs of the offering, were deferred and subsequently offset against
the proceeds of the stock sale as a charge to additional paid-in capital.
PRE-OPENING EXPENSES
Costs incurred for salaries, overhead and other operating expenses are included
in the respective periods' operating results.
NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE
Net loss per common share is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The periods
ending June 30, 1995 are calculated assuming weighted outstanding shares for the
period were 700,000, the number of shares outstanding upon the conclusion of the
offering.

<PAGE>
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION.
On September 30, 1995, the Company concluded its offering by selling 700,000
shares of common stock at $10.00 per share. This provided the Company with
$6,937,117 in capital after deducting deferred offering expenses of $62,883.
Operations through December 31, 1995 related primarily to organizing the Company
and pre-opening expenditures to prepare for opening the Bank. On February 26,
1996, the Bank opened for business to serve the Rome/Floyd County area as a
commercial bank.
As of June 30, 1996, the Bank had concluded four full months of operations.
Total deposits had grown to $8,536,855 and total loans had grown to $6,170,285.
The Company had total assets of $15,149,621.
During the Bank's initial months of operations, management expects deposit
growth to continue to exceed loan growth. The interest rates being paid on
interest bearing deposits and the service charge rates for deposit services are
comparable to local market rates. Management is making a concerted effort to
develop quality loan business in the local market and to manage the deposit
growth consistent with expected loan demand. At quarter end the Bank's loan to
deposit ratio (a measure of earnings efficiency) was 72%, and the weighted
average yield on loans was 9.89%. Management's current target for the loan to
deposit ratio is 77%.
The deposit mix at June 30, 1996 was as follows: $1,745,399 (20% of total
deposits) in non-interest bearing demand deposits; $1,289,506 (15% of total
deposits) in interest checking accounts; $2,077,726 (25% of total deposits) in
money market and savings accounts; and $3,426,079 (40% of total deposits) in
time deposits. The weighted average cost of funds was 3.35%. As the Bank
continues to grow, management expects the deposit mix to become more heavily
weighted towards the higher costing time deposits, thus increasing the average
cost of funds and reducing the Bank's net interest margin.
While the Bank continues to build its loan portfolio, excess funds are invested
in short to intermediate term government and agency securities. At June 30,
1996, investment securities held to maturity were $4,247,901 with a market value
of $4,099,354 and securities available for sale were $495,684. The weighted
average yield on the securities portfolio was 6.29% and the weighted average
life was 4.25 years. Interest bearing deposits (federal funds sold) with other
banks were $2,880,000 with a weighted average yield of 5.04%. The current
investment portfolio strategy is primarily to provide liquidity for funding
loans and initial operating expenditures and secondarily for earnings
enhancement. Accordingly, no investment securities have final maturities
greater than five years and all are pledgeable to raise funding through secured
borrowing or repurchase agreements.
Premises and equipment (net of depreciation) were $775,526 and consisted
primarily of land and land improvement costs related to the site work for the
new bank building and progress payments to the architect for the building plans
and specifications. On April 1, 1996 the Bank entered into a contract to
construct the new bank building for a price of $1,119,000. Construction of the
new building began in April. It will provide approximately 9,000 square feet of
office space from which the Bank will conduct all banking business. An
estimated additional $280,000 will be spent on furniture, fixtures, security
equipment and data processing equipment in 1996. The new facility is expected
to be completed in October 1996. All of this investment will be funded
internally by the Bank's own working capital. No borrowings for these capital
improvements are anticipated.
The Company had an accumulated deficit of $371,054 as of June 30, 1996. During
the first six months of 1996, the Company incurred a net loss of $206,708
compared to a net loss of $86,808 in the first half of 1995. The first half of
9
<PAGE>
1996 reflected four full months of banking operations with 14 full-time
employees and leased trailer facilities on the bank site, whereas the first half
of 1995 reflected the costs associated with early stage development of the
Company when it had no earning assets and only two employees.
Net interest income for the first half of 1996 was $258,354 ($157,337 in the
second quarter) compared to net interest expense of $7,992 ($4,375 in the second
quarter) for the same period in 1995. The Company had no earning assets in the
first half of 1995. In the first half of 1995, its working capital came from
lines of credit guaranteed by the Company's organizers. The 1995 interest
expense was in connection with those lines. All working capital lines of credit
were paid off in November 1995. The Company had interest expense on interest
bearing deposits of $56,282, in the first half of 1996, $50,391 of which was
expensed in the second quarter. Total interest income in the first half of 1996
was $314,635 ($207,728 in the second quarter). Interest income on loans
including fees were $99,918 in the first half of 1996, $92,846 of which was
earned in the second quarter. Most of the loan interest income and deposit
interest expense in the first half of 1996 occurred in the second quarter
because the Bank did not open until February 26, 1996 and could not make loans
or take deposits until then.
The provision for loan losses for the six months ended June 30, 1996 was $30,407
($25,326 in the second quarter). Since the Bank's loan portfolio is only four
months old, the Bank has no historical data about loan losses on its portfolio
on which to base projections for future losses. Current loan quality analysis
does not indicate potential loan losses. Until more substantial evidence about
potential loan losses is developed, management believes the Bank should
establish an allowance for loan losses that will approximate 1.5% to 2.0% of
total loans. At June 30, 1996, the allowance for loan losses was $30,407, which
represented .5% of total loans. Management expects the allowance for loan
losses to reach the 1.5% level in the next 12 to 18 months.
Non-interest income for the six months ended June 30, 1996 was $9,209 ($8,978 in
the second quarter). This consists of service charges on deposit accounts,
miscellaneous service fees, the Bank's portion of credit life insurance premiums
and mortgage fees.
Non-interest expense for the first half of 1996 was $443,864 ($263,255 in the
second quarter) compared to $78,816 ($49,940 in the second quarter) for the same
period in 1995. Salaries and benefits increased substantially when the Bank
commenced operations in February 1996 with 14 employees compared to only 2
employees in the first half of 1995. Occupancy costs are up in 1996 with
operations occurring in two mobile office units (approximately 2,600 square
feet) while the permanent bank building is under construction. In 1995, one
mobile office unit (approximately 600 square feet) was used for organizational
efforts. Other operating expenses for the first six months increased from
$39,966 in 1995 to $140,065 in 1996 and include many expenses that were not
necessary in 1995, such as data processing services, business development,
professional fees, postage, supplies and communications costs.
The Company does not expect to make a profit in its first two to three years of
operations, while it establishes its position in the local market and builds its
banking services infrastructure. Management continues to believe that the local
market presents good opportunities for business development to support a growing
and profitable community bank. Despite the anticipated losses in the first few
years of operations, the Company expects earnings from loans and investments
and other banking services as well as steady deposit growth to provide
sufficient liquidity for both the short and long term. The Bank intends to
manage its loan growth such that deposit flows will provide funding for all
loans as well as cash reserves for working capital and short to intermediate
term, liquid investments. In the early years, the investment practices of the
10
<PAGE>
Company will limit investments to highly liquid overnight investments in
correspondent banks and short to intermediate term U.S. Treasury and government
agency securities. For the foreseeable future, the Bank will consider its
investment portfolio primarily as a source for liquidity and secondarily as a
source for earnings.
