Summary of Significant Accounting Principles
A summary of significant accounting policies and the audited financial
statements for 2002 are included in Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 2002.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Community
Bankshares, Inc. (CBI), the parent company, and Orangeburg National Bank, Sumter
National Bank, Florence National Bank, Community Resource Mortgage Inc., and the
Bank of Ridgeway, its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany
items have been eliminated in the consolidated statements.
Management Opinion
The interim financial statements in this report are unaudited. In the
opinion of management, all the adjustments necessary to present a fair statement
of the results for the interim period have been made. Such adjustments are of a
normal and recurring nature.
The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily
indicative of the results to be expected for an entire year. These interim
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual financial
statements and notes thereto contained in the 2002 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Changes in Comprehensive Income Components
The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," effective for
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. This Statement establishes
standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components
in a full set of general-purpose financial statements. Disclosure as required by
the Statement is as follows:

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
Forward Looking Statements
Statements included in Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations which are not historical in nature
are intended to be, and are hereby identified as `forward looking statements'
for purposes of the safe harbor provided by Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The words "estimate," "project," "intend,",
"expect," "believe," "anticipate," "plan," and similar expressions identify
forward-looking statements. The Corporation (CBI) cautions readers that forward
looking statements, including without limitation, those relating to the CBI's
future business prospects, ability to successfully integrate recent
acquisitions, revenues, adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, working
capital, liquidity, capital needs, interest costs, and income, are subject to
certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ
materially from those indicated in the forward looking statements, due to
several important factors herein identified, among others, and other risks and
factors identified from time to time in the CBI's reports filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission.
Critical Accounting Policies
CBI has adopted various accounting policies, which govern the
application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America in the preparation of the CBI's financial statements. The significant
accounting policies of CBI are described in detail in the notes to CBI's audited
consolidated financial statements included in CBI's Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Certain accounting policies involve significant judgments and estimates
by management, which have a material impact on the carrying value of certain
assets and liabilities. Management considers such accounting policies to be
critical accounting policies. The judgments and estimates used by management are
based on historical experience and other factors, which are believed to be
reasonable under the circumstances. Because of the nature of the judgments and
assumptions made by management, actual results could differ from these judgments
and estimates, which could have a material impact on the carrying values of
assets and liabilities and the results of operations of CBI.
CBI is a holding company for community banks and a mortgage company
and, as a financial institution, believes the allowance for loan losses is a
critical accounting policy that requires the most significant judgments and
estimates used in preparation of its consolidated financial statements. Refer to
the sections "Allowance for Loan Losses" and "Provision for Loan Losses" in the
Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2002 for a detailed description of CBI's
estimation process and methodology related to the allowance for loan losses.

Earnings Performance, March 31, 2003 compared to March 31, 2002
The first quarter of 2003 was influenced by three major factors:
interest rates held stable at historically low levels, higher demand for
mortgage loans generated by continuing low interest rates, and the July 2002
acquisition of the Bank of Ridgeway. The prime lending rate for the first
quarter 2003 was 4.25%, compared to 4.75% for the same quarter in 2002. Low
interest rates put continuing pressure on the Banks' net interest margin,
nevertheless the Banks' margin improved to 3.77% from 3.71%. Most of this
increase was associated with the acquisition of the Bank of Ridgeway in July
with its relatively large dollar volume of relatively low cost deposits. Low
rates were also responsible for the unprecedented volume of mortgage loan
originations and refinances done by Community Resource Mortgage, Inc., and its
income was up over 82%, favorably impacting CBI's (CBI) noninterest income.
Three months of operation in 2003 for the Bank of Ridgeway also had a
significant impact on CBI's income statement. The substantial dollar and
percentage changes that are discussed throughout this document are due in large
measure to these factors.
CBI's net income was $1,581,000 or $.37 per basic share in 2003
compared to $1,125,000 or $.34 per basic share in 2002, an increase of $456,000
or 40.5%. Diluted earnings were $.36 per share, up from $.33.
This increase in net income resulted from the operations of the
subsidiaries, which are detailed in the following chart (dollars in thousands):

Elsewhere in this report is a table comparing the average balances,
yields, and rates for the interest rate sensitive segments of CBI's balance
sheets for the quarters ended March 31, 2003 and 2002. A discussion of that
table and the above table follows.
Interest Income
Total average interest earning assets for 2003 increased $104,149,000
or 34.3% over 2002. The RW acquisition accounted for about $77 million or 75% of
the increase. The acquisition also accounted for the majority of the increases
in the volumes of specific earning assets. The acquisition provided almost the
entire increase in the tax exempt security portfolio. Thus, although the average
yield on interest earning assets declined, interest income rose.
Interest Expense
Total average interest bearing liabilities for 2003 also increased
$83,083,000 or 32.1% over 2002. RW contributed $64 million or 77% of the
increase. The acquisition also accounted for the majority of the increases in
the volumes of specific interest bearing liabilities. Even though the volumes
increased, rates declined enough to produce a slight decrease in increase
expense.
Net interest income
Net interest income is the amount by which interest and fees on
interest earning assets exceeds the interest paid on interest bearing deposits
and other interest bearing funds. For 2003 net interest income was up
significantly over 2002, as noted above mostly as a result of the RW
acquisition.
CBI's net interest margin was 3.77% for 2003 compared to 3.71% for
2002. Most of the improvement was attributable to the RW acquisition, as RW had
a large amount of relatively low cost deposits, but a portion of the improvement
was also due to aggressive interest rate management by the other banks.
12
Provision of loan losses
The increase in the provision for loan losses was due to the RW
acquisition after the first quarter of 2002 and the establishment of a loan loss
reserve by CRM, also after the first quarter of 2002.
Non-Interest Income
Non-interest income for 2003 increased $868,000 over 2002. Most of the
increase was due to mortgage banking income which increased $555,000, the vast
majority of which was generated by CRM. Approximately $200,000 of the increase
was provided by service charges and other income from RW.
Non-Interest Expense
Approximately $683,000 or 50% of the $1,157,000 increase in
non-interest expense was accounted for by the RW acquisition. The remaining
increase was due to volume increases at CRM, which has a commission based
compensation system, and normal increases at the other banks.
Income Taxes
Although income tax expense for 2003 increased $191,000 or 30.2% over
2002, the average tax rate for 2003 was 34.2% while in 2002 it was 36%. The
decline in the average tax rate is related to the acquisition of the Ridgeway
bank's substantial tax exempt investment portfolio.
Profitability
One of the best ways to review earnings is through the ROA (return on
average assets) and the ROE (return on average equity). Based on operating
results for the quarters ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, the following table is
presented.

The decline in ROE is related to the increase in shareholders' equity resulting
from the RW acquisition in July 2002.

CHANGES IN FINANCIAL POSITION
Investment portfolio
The investment portfolio is comprised of available for sale securities.
CBI and its four banks usually purchase short-term issues (ten years or less) of
U. S Treasury and U. S. Government agency securities for investment purposes. At
March 31, 2003 the available for sale portfolio totaled $46,380,000 compared to
$53,066,000 at December 31, 2002, a decrease of 12.6% or $6,686,000. The decline
in the investment portfolio is related primarily to calls prior to maturity and
the lack of attractive investment options in the bond market. The proceeds of
these calls and maturities have generally been reinvested in federal funds. The
following chart summarizes the investment portfolios at March 31, 2003 and
December 31, 2002.

Loan portfolio
The loan portfolio is primarily consumer, and small and medium size
business oriented. At March 31, 2003 the loan portfolio was $313,711,000
compared to $306,484,000 at December 31, 2002, a 2.4% or $7,227,000 increase.
This increase was attributable to normal growth of the banks. The following
chart summarizes the loan portfolio at March 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002.

The above loan portfolio table does not include loans held for sale.
Loans held for sale are loans originated by CBI's banks or mortgage company for
sale to others which are held pending completion of the sale. The vast majority
of such loans are originated by CRM and are one-to-four family residential
mortgage loans. At March 31, 2003 loans held for sale totaled $23,191,000
compared to $24,664,000 at December 31, 2002, a 6% or $1,473,000 decrease. The
amount of loans held for sale is subject to significant fluctuation depending on
current market conditions.
Past Due and Non-Performing Assets
CBI closely monitors past due loans and loans that are in non-accrual
status and other real estate owned. Below is a summary of past due and
non-performing assets at March 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002.
Mar. 31, 2003 Dec. 31, 2002
------------- -------------
(Dollar amounts in thousands)
Past due 90 days + and still accruing loans ............................................ $2,514 $1,740
Non-accrual loans ...................................................................... $ 822 $ 796
Impaired loans (included in nonaccrual) ................................................ $ 822 $ 796
Other real estate owned ................................................................ $ 350 $ 219
Most of the amount of accruing loans greater than 90 days past due
amount at March 31, 2003 is attributable to two unrelated loans, one in the
approximate amount of $1.3 million and the other in the approximate amount of
$.5 million. The larger loan involves principals who are having a legal dispute
with each other. Management believes that the bank's collateral position is
sufficient so that no loss is expected. The smaller loan is related to a loan
participation which management expects to be paid out in May. Management does
not expect any material loss in relation to either of these credits.
Management considers the past due and non-accrual amounts at March 31,
2003 to be reasonable in relation to the size of the portfolio and manageable in
the normal course of business.
CBI had no restructured loans during any of the above listed periods.
Allowance for Loan Losses
The allowance for loan losses is increased by the provision for loan
losses, which is a direct charge to expense. Losses on specific loans are
charged against the allowance in the period in which management determines that
such loans become uncollectible. Recoveries of previously charged-off loans are
credited to the allowance.
Management reviews its allowance for loan losses in three broad
categories: commercial, real estate and loans to individuals. The combination of
a relatively short operating history and relatively high asset quality precludes
management from establishing a meaningful specific loan loss percentage for the
15
computation of the allowance for each category. Instead management assigns an
estimated percentage factor to each in the computation of the overall allowance.
These estimates are not, however, intended to restrict CBI's ability to respond
to losses. CBI charges losses from any segment of the portfolio to the
allowance, regardless of the allocation. In general terms, the real estate
portfolio is subject to the least risk, followed by the commercial loan
portfolio, followed by the loans to individuals portfolio. The banks' internal
and external loan review programs from time to time identify loans that are
subject to specific weaknesses and such loans are reviewed for a specific loan
loss allowance.
Based on the current levels of non-performing and other problem loans,
management believes that loan charge-offs in 2003 will be less than the 2002
levels as such loans progress through the collection, foreclosure, and
repossession process. Management believes that the allowance for loan losses, as
of March 31, 2003, is sufficient to absorb the inherent losses that remain in
the loan portfolio. Management will continue to closely monitor the levels of
non-performing and potential problem loans and address the weaknesses in these
credits to enhance the amount of ultimate collection or recovery of these
assets. Management considers the levels and trends in non-performing and past
due loans in determining how the provision for loan losses is adjusted.
The aggregate allowance for loan losses of the banks and the mortgage
company and the aggregate activity with respect to the allowance are summarized
in the following table.
(Dollar amounts in thousands) Mar. 31, 2003 Dec. 31, 2002 Mar. 31, 2002
------------- ------------- -------------
Allowance at beginning of period ........................... $ 3,572 $ 3,274 $ 2,830
Provision expense .......................................... 264 1,033 169
Net charge offs ............................................ (69) (734) (38)

Allowance at end of period ................................. $ 3,767 $ 3,573 $ 2,961
======= ======= =======
Allowance / outstanding loans .............................. 1.20% 1.17% 1.23%
Intangible assets
CBI has adopted FASB No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, as
of January 1, 2002. As of March 31, 2003 intangible assets totaled $7,835,000,
compared to $7,896,000 at December 31, 2002, a decrease of $61,000. The decrease
represented amortization of the core deposit intangible acquired in conjunction
with the RW acquisition.
Deposits
Deposits at March 31, 2003 were $9,608,000, or 2.9%, higher than at
December 31, 2002. This increase was the result of normal business growth for
the banks.
Time deposits greater than $100,000 at March 31, 2003 were $155,000 or
..23% greater than December 31, 2002, essentially unchanged.
Liquidity
Liquidity is the ability to meet current and future obligations through
liquidation or maturity of existing assets or the acquisition of additional
liabilities. Adequate liquidity is necessary to meet the requirements of
16
customers for loans and deposit withdrawals in a timely and economical manner.
The most manageable sources of liquidity are composed of liabilities, with the
primary focus of liquidity management being the ability to attract deposits
within the Banks' service areas. Core deposits (total deposits less certificates
of deposit of $100,000 or more) provide a relatively stable funding base.
Certificates of deposit of $100,000 or more are generally more sensitive to
changes in rates, so they must be monitored carefully. Asset liquidity is
provided by several sources, including amounts due from banks, federal funds
sold, and investments available-for-sale.
As of March 31, 2003 the loan to deposit ratio was 90.5% compared to
90.9% at December 31, 2002 and 89.9% at March 31, 2002. The RW acquisition in
July 2002 did provide a significant amount of additional liquidity to the
company as a whole, and the additional liquidity has been used in meeting the
overall demand for loans since the acquisition.
In the opinion of management, CBI's current and projected liquidity
position is adequate.
Capital resources
As summarized in the table below, CBI maintains a strong capital
position.
Minimum required
for capital
Mar. 31, 2003 Dec. 31, 2002 adequacy
------------- ------------- --------
Tier 1 capital to average total assets ............................... 8.56% 8.29% 4.00%
Tier 1 capital to risk weighted assets ............................... 11.59% 11.56% 4.00%
Total capital to risk weighted assets ................................ 12.74% 12.70% 8.00%
In the opinion of management, the Company's current and projected
capital positions are adequate. In each case the ratios exceed by a substantial
margin the regulatory requirement for being considered well capitalized.
Dividends
CBI declared and paid a quarterly cash dividend of nine cents per share
during the first quarter of 2003. The total cost of this dividend was $387,000.
Commitments
On March 31, 2003 the Board of CBI approved a project to introduce
imaging technology into the company. This technology will enable the banks to
provide imaged statements to customers and it will also provide for imaging of
documents. The estimated cost of the project is $700,000.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Market risk is the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices
and rates. CBI's market risk arises principally from interest rate risk inherent
in its lending, deposit and borrowing activities. Management actively monitors
17
and manages its interest rate risk exposure. Although CBI manages other risks,
such as credit quality and liquidity risk in the normal course of business,
management considers interest rate risk to be its most significant market risk
and this risk could potentially have the largest material effect on CBI's
financial condition and results of operations. Other types of market risks such
as foreign currency exchange risk and commodity price risk do not arise in the
normal course of community banking activities.
CBI's Asset/Liability Committee uses a simulation model to assist in
achieving consistent growth in net interest income while managing interest rate
risk. According to the model as of March 31, 2003 CBI is positioned so that net
interest income would increase $418,000 and net income would increase $278,000
in the next twelve months if interest rates rose 200 basis points. Conversely,
net interest income would decline $418,000 and net income would decline $278,000
in the next twelve months if interest rates declined 200 basis points. In the
current interest rate environment, it is unlikely that there will be any large
rate decreases in the immediate future. Computation of prospective effects of
hypothetical interest rate changes are based on numerous assumptions, including
relative levels of market interest rates and loan prepayment, and should not be
relied upon as indicative of actual results. Further, the computations do not
contemplate any actions CBI and its customers could undertake in response to
changes in interest rates.
As of March 31, 2003 there was no significant change from the interest
rate sensitivity analysis for the various changes in interest rates calculated
as of December 31, 2002. The foregoing disclosures related to the market risk of
CBI should be read in connection with Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Position and Results of Operations included in the 2002 Annual Report
on Form 10-K.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
