TIB FINANCIAL CORP.

CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2004
(Unaudited)

NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION & ACCOUNTING POLICIES

TIB Financial Corp. is a financial holding company headquartered in Naples, Florida. TIB Financial Corp. owns and operates TIB Bank of the Keys, which has a total of fourteen branches in Florida that are located in Monroe, Miami-Dade, Collier and Lee counties.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements for TIB Financial Corp. (the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statement presentation. For further information and an additional description of the Company’s accounting policies, refer to the Company’s annual report for the year ended December 31, 2003.

The consolidated statements include the accounts of TIB Financial Corp. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, TIB Bank of the Keys, TIB Software and Services, Inc. (this corporation was dissolved in March 2004 – see Note 2), and Keys Insurance Agency, Inc. (whose assets were sold in August 2003 — see Note 10) and the Bank’s two subsidiaries, TIB Government Loan Specialists, Inc. (this corporation was dissolved in March 2004 – see Note 2) and TIB Investment Center Inc., collectively known as the Company. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Certain amounts previously reported on have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

As used in this document, the terms “we,” “us,” “our,” “TIB Financial,” and “Company” mean TIB Financial Corp. and its subsidiaries (unless the context indicates another meaning), and the term “Bank” means TIB Bank of the Keys and its subsidiaries (unless the context indicates another meaning).

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accounting and reporting policies of the Company are in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted within the United States of America and conform to general practices within the banking industry. Accounting and reporting policies for the allowance for loan losses are deemed critical since they involve the use of estimates and require significant management judgments. Losses on loans result from a broad range of causes from borrower specific problems, to industry issues, to the impact of the economic environment. The identification of these factors that lead to default or non-performance under a borrower loan agreement and the estimation of loss in these situations are very subjective. In addition, a dramatic change in the performance of one or a small number of borrowers can have a significant impact on the estimate of losses. Management has implemented a process that has been applied consistently to systematically consider the many variables that impact the estimation of the allowance for loan losses.

Additional information with regard to the Company’s methodology and reporting of the allowance for loan losses is included in the 2003 Annual Report and 10-K.

NOTE 2 – ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES

On May 29, 2003, TIB Software and Services, Inc. sold its remaining interest in ERAS Joint Venture for $326,667. The Company recognized a pretax gain of approximately $202,000 on the transaction. In March 2004, the Company filed Articles of Dissolution dissolving TIB Software and Services, Inc.

On August 15, 2003, the Company closed the sale of the assets of Keys Insurance Agency, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

NOTE 6 – EARNINGS PER SHARE AND COMMON STOCK

Earnings per share have been computed based on the following weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the three months and six months ended June 30:

                 
    2004
  2003
For the three months ended June 30:
               
Basic
    5,434,532       4,152,481  
Dilutive effect of options outstanding
    163,310       159,875  
 
   
 
     
 
 
Diluted
    5,597,842       4,312,356  
 
   
 
     
 
 
For the six months ended June 30:
               
Basic
    4,948,550       4,101,616  
Dilutive effect of options outstanding
    180,072       169,084  
 
   
 
     
 
 
Diluted
    5,128,622       4,270,700  
 
   
 
     
 
 

Stock options for 33,736 and 1,923 shares of common stock were not considered in computing diluted earnings per common share for the three months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 because they were anti-dilutive. Stock options for 26,909 and 967 shares of common stock were not considered in computing diluted earnings per common share for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 because they were anti-dilutive. The effect of stock options is the sole common stock equivalent for purposes of calculating diluted earnings per common share.

NOTE 7 – STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

Total stock options granted, exercised, and expired/forfeited during the six months ended June 30, 2004, were 37,500, 76,629, and 7,400, respectively. As of June 30, 2004, there were 430,976 options for shares outstanding.

Employee compensation expense under stock options is reported using the intrinsic value method. No stock-based compensation cost is reflected in net income, as all options granted had an exercise price equal to or greater than the market price of the underlying common stock at date of grant. The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if expense was measured using the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.”

On February 24, 2004, the Board of Directors approved the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan for directors and employees, which was also approved by the shareholders at their annual meeting held on May 25, 2004. The Plan allows the Company to continue to provide equity compensation to employees and directors in order to enable the Company to attract and retain qualified persons to serve as directors and employees, to enhance their equity interest in the Company, and thereby to solidify their common interest with shareholders in enhancing the value and growth of the Company. Refer to the Company’s 2004 Proxy statement for additional information regarding the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan.

Management believes, as of June 30, 2004, that the Company and the Bank met all capital requirements to which they are subject. The Company has included the trust preferred securities that were issued in September 2000 and July 2001 in Tier 1 capital.

We completed an offering of 1,150,000 shares of our common stock during the second quarter of 2004.

NOTE 9 — SEGMENT REPORTING

TIB Financial Corp. has two reportable segments in their continuing operations: community banking and merchant bankcard processing. The community banking segment’s business is to attract deposits from the public and to use such deposits to make real estate, business and consumer loans in its primary service area. The merchant bankcard processing segment processes credit card transactions for local merchants. Parent and other includes the operations of the holding company and retail investment service operations of the Bank.

The results of Keys Insurance Agency, Inc. are not included in the segment reporting as they are classified separately as discontinued operations in our consolidated financial statements (see Note 10). Total assets of Keys Insurance Agency, Inc. at June 30, 2004 and June 30, 2003 were $0 and $2.3 million respectively.

The Company’s reportable segments are strategic business units that offer different products and services. They are managed separately because each business requires different marketing strategies.

Intercompany transactions have been ignored in preparing the segment reporting amounts below.

The results of the Company’s segments are as follows (dollars in thousands):

Actual results may differ materially from the results anticipated in these forward-looking statements due to a variety of factors, including, without limitation: the effects of future economic conditions; governmental monetary and fiscal policies, as well as legislative and regulatory changes; the risks of changes in interest rates on the level and composition of deposits, loan demand, and the values of loan collateral, and interest rate risks; the effects of competition from other commercial banks, thrifts, consumer finance companies, and other financial institutions operating in the Company’s market area and elsewhere. All forward-looking statements attributable to the Company are expressly qualified in their entirety by these cautionary statements. The Company disclaims any intent or obligation to update these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

The following discussion addresses the factors that have affected the financial condition and results of operations of TIB Financial Corp. (the “Company”) as reflected in the unaudited consolidated statement of condition as of June 30, 2004, and statement of income for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2004. Operating results for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2004 are not necessarily indicative of trends or results to be expected for the year ended December 31, 2004.

THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2004 AND 2003

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Our net income of $1,257,000 for the second quarter of 2004 was a $29,000 or 2.3% decrease compared to $1,286,000 for the same period last year. Net income from continuing operations was $1,257,000 for the second quarter of 2004, compared to $1,211,000 for the second quarter of 2003, an increase of $46,000 or 3.8%. As discussed in Note 10, the Company closed the sale of the assets of its wholly owned subsidiary, Keys Insurance Agency, Inc., in the third quarter of 2003.

Basic and diluted earnings per share for continuing operations for the second quarter of 2004 were $0.23 and $0.22 respectively as compared to $0.29 and $0.28 per share in the previous year’s quarter. Basic weighted average common equivalent shares outstanding for the three months ended June 30, 2004 were 5,434,532 compared to 4,152,481 for the three

months ended June 30, 2003. This 30.9% increase in shares outstanding resulted from the exercise of stock options and the issuance of 1,150,000 shares in the second quarter of 2004 in connection with a public stock offering of our shares.

Annualized return on average assets was 0.69% and 0.83% for the second quarter of 2004 and 2003, while the annualized return on average shareholders’ equity was 8.31% and 14.29% for the same period. The decline in the return on average shareholders’ equity in the current year is primarily attributable to the stock offering in the second quarter of 2004.

NET INTEREST INCOME

Net interest income represents the amount by which interest income on interest-earning assets exceeds interest expense incurred on interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest income is the largest component of our income, and is affected by the interest rate environment, and the volume and the composition of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Our interest earning assets include loans, federal funds sold, interest bearing deposits in other banks, and investment securities. Our interest-bearing liabilities include deposits, federal funds purchased, notes payable related to Company shares repurchased, subordinated debentures, advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank, and other short term borrowings.

Net interest income increased $1,473,000, or 25.0%, to $7,361,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to the same period last year. The prime rate as published in the Wall Street Journal began 2003 at 4.25% and in June 2003 it declined to 4.00% and remained at that rate until July of 2004. Many of the Bank’s loans are indexed to this floating rate, although they also include floors. The lower level of prime rate in the second quarter of 2004 compared to the comparative period in 2003 did result in a lower average yield in the loan portfolio, however, increased loan volumes and decreased deposit rates more than compensated for this allowing for the reported increase in interest income.

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES

The provision for loan losses represents the charge to income necessary to adjust the allowance for loan losses to an amount that represents management’s assessment of the estimated probable credit losses inherent in our loan portfolio which have been incurred at each balance sheet date.

The provision for loan losses increased $391,000, or 151.6%, to $649,000 in the second quarter of 2004 compared to $258,000 in the comparable prior year quarter. The higher provision for loan losses in 2004 was primarily attributable to the growth in the loan portfolio and change in composition of the loan portfolio. Total loans outstanding grew $40.7 million, or 7.4%, during the second quarter of 2004, as compared to only $14.8 million, or 3.2%, during the second quarter of 2003. The largest dollar increase during the second quarter of 2004 occurred in commercial real estate loans which increased $35.8 million, or 12.2%. This compares to a $10.4 million, or 3.8% increase in commercial real estate loans during the second quarter of 2003. We have also continued to expand our indirect lending portfolio. At June 30, 2004, indirect auto dealer loans accounted for $76.8 million, or 13.0%, of our loan portfolio. This compares to an indirect lending portfolio of $39.2 million at June 30, 2003 which represented 8.3% of our total loan portfolio.

Total loans outstanding were $590.4 million at June 30, 2004, compared to $473.1 million at June 30, 2003. Net charge-offs were $190,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2004 compared to $73,000 for the same period in 2003.

Management will continue to monitor the credit quality of the lending portfolio and will recognize additional provisions in the future as necessary, in the opinion of management, to maintain the allowance for loan losses at an appropriate level.

NON-INTEREST INCOME

Non-interest income for the second quarter of 2004 was $3,331,000. This represents a $243,000 or 7.9% increase over the prior year quarter which totaled $3,088,000. The increase in non-interest income is primarily attributable to an increase of $313,000 in merchant bankcard processing income, partially offset by a $202,000 decrease from the gain on sale of investment in ERAS JV.

The $313,000 increase in merchant bankcard processing income is primarily a result of volume increases. On May 29, 2003, we sold our remaining interest in ERAS Joint Venture and recognized a pretax gain of $202,000 on this transaction.

NON-INTEREST EXPENSE

Non-interest expense for the second quarter of 2004 was $8,153,000. This represents a $1,284,000 or 18.7% increase over the prior year quarter which totaled $6,869,000. The increase in non-interest expense is attributable to salaries and employee benefits increasing $540,000, net occupancy expense increasing $109,000, and other expense increasing $635,000. The increases are primarily the result of costs associated with the growth of our business and continued expansion into the Southwest Florida market.

At June 30, 2004 the Bank had 275 full-time employees and 16 part-time employees, compared to 262 full-time employees and 14 part time employees at June 30, 2003. The increase in staff was required to manage the growth of the organization.

In general, as we continue to renovate facilities and add branches, the net occupancy expense category will grow overall. In December 2003, we leased a new operations facility in Homestead, Florida. Building rent expense on this property for the three months ended June 30, 2004 totaled $35,000.

In the category of other expense, interchange and other bankcard expense increased approximately $323,000 over the prior year amount. These expenses are primarily tied to volume, and are consistent with the increase in merchant bankcard processing income we experienced. We did, however, experience an increase in the rates charged by our card associations in April 2004 that also contributed to this increase. Also, in the second quarter of 2004, we incurred $191,000 in employee relocation costs. These costs were incurred to relocate various employees, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, in connection with the relocation of our corporate headquarters from the Florida Keys to the Southwest Florida area.

INCOME TAXES

The provision for income taxes related to continuing operations totaled $633,000, for an effective tax rate of 33.5%, for the three months ended June 30, 2004, and $638,000, for an effective tax rate of 34.5%, for the three months ended June 30, 2003.

SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2004 AND 2003

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Our net income of $2,530,000 for the first six months of 2004 was a $55,000 or 2.2% increase compared to $2,475,000 for the same period last year. Net income from continuing operations was $2,530,000 for the first six months of 2004, compared to $2,372,000 for the first six months of 2003, an increase of $158,000 or 6.7%. As discussed in Note 10, the Company closed the sale of the assets of its wholly owned subsidiary, Keys Insurance Agency, Inc. in the third quarter of 2003.

Basic and diluted earnings per share for the first six months of 2004 were $0.51 and $0.49 respectively as compared to $0.60 and $0.58 per share in the previous year’s period. Basic weighted average common equivalent shares outstanding for the six months ended June 30, 2004 were 4,948,550 compared to 4,101,616. This 20.6% increase in shares outstanding resulted from the issuance of an additional 1,150,000 shares in the second quarter of 2004 in connection with a public offering of our common stock that raised $23.2 million in new capital, the issuance of 280,653 shares in June 2003 in connection with a private placement of our stock that raised $4.3 million in new capital, and the exercise of stock options.

Annualized return on average assets was 0.72% and 0.82% for the first six months of 2004 and 2003, while the annualized return on average shareholders’ equity was 9.84% and 14.10% for the same period. The decline in the return on average shareholders’ equity in the current year is primarily attributable to the stock offering in the second quarter of 2004.

NET INTEREST INCOME

Net interest income represents the amount by which interest income on interest-earning assets exceeds interest expense incurred on interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest income is the largest component of our income, and is affected by the interest rate environment, and the volume and the composition of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Our interest earning assets include loans, federal funds sold, interest bearing deposits in other banks, and investment securities. Our interest-bearing liabilities include deposits, federal funds purchased, notes payable related to Company shares repurchased, subordinated debentures, advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank, and other short term borrowings.

Net interest income increased $2,468,000, or 21.1%, to $14,189,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2004 as compared to the same period last year. The prime rate as published in the Wall Street Journal began 2003 at 4.25% and in June 2003 it declined to 4.00% and remained at that rate until July of 2004. Many of the Bank’s loans are indexed to this floating rate, although they also include floors. The lower level of prime rate in the first six months of 2004 compared to the comparative period in 2003 did result in a lower average yield in the loan portfolio, however, increased loan volumes and decreased deposit rates more than compensated for this allowing for the reported increase in interest income.

The effect of the low interest rates is to contract our net interest margin in two ways. First, a low prime rate directly affects yields on loans tied to that index and even loans not indexed to prime are priced reflective of overall low asset yields. Second, deposit liabilities can only be priced down so far before the interest rate is too low to attract the volume of required funding. The net effect of this rate environment is a larger reduction in asset yields, generally, than the corresponding reduction in liability costs.

We were able to mitigate the effects of the interest rate environment for the following reasons. First, even though we are at low relative levels of interest rates, net interest margins have stabilized and we were able to decrease liability costs to a similar extent that asset yields contracted. Second, we have expanded a practice of requiring an interest rate floor on many new commercial loans. This proved effective in slowing the average decline in loan yields. Finally, we continue to change our mix of assets to slightly increase the percentage of higher yielding loans.

In April 2002, the Bank began a program to acquire indirect automobile loans. We predominantly buy loans from auto dealers in southwest Florida which are for the purchase of new or late model used cars. We serve customers over a broad range of creditworthiness and the required terms and rates are reflective of those risk profiles. As of June 30, 2004 we had $76.8 million of indirect auto dealer loans outstanding, compared to $39.2 million at June 30, 2003. Coupled with the appropriate safeguards, we believe this product continues to offer us an opportunity to increase asset yields while not sacrificing our primary objective of maintaining strong asset quality.

The average yield on interest-earning assets for the first six months of 2004 was 6.01% which was a decrease of 24 basis points compared to the 6.25% yield earned during the first six months of 2003. The average cost of interest-bearing deposits declined 32 basis points from 2.02% during the first six months of 2003 to 1.70% for the comparable period in 2004, and the rate of all interest-bearing liabilities decreased 35 basis points, from 2.27% in 2003 to 1.92% in 2004. The Company’s net interest margin increased to 4.50% in the first six months of 2004 compared to 4.39% in the first six months of 2003. We anticipate interest rates slowly trending up over the next twelve months. If this occurs or if rates remain stable, net interest margin should expand only slightly due principally to strong new loan production. However, due to the cash generated from our recent stock offering in April 2004, there will be some near term compression in net interest margin until these funds are invested. Our margin is derived from the rate difference between our average yields on our current mix of assets in excess of our average cost of liabilities. By the end of 2004, we anticipate the funds raised in our recent stock offering will be invested in a similar mix of assets as currently exists on our balance sheet.

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES

The provision for loan losses represents the charge to income necessary to adjust the allowance for loan losses to an amount that represents management’s assessment of the estimated probable credit losses inherent in our loan portfolio which have been incurred at each balance sheet date.

The provision for loan losses increased $430,000 or 73.1% to $1,018,000 in the first six months of 2004 compared to $588,000 in the comparable prior year period. The higher provision for loan losses in 2004 was primarily attributable to the growth in the loan portfolio and change in composition of the loan portfolio. Total loans outstanding grew $51.8 million, or 9.6%, during the first six months of 2004, as compared to only $31.4 million, or 7.1%, during the first six months of 2003. The largest dollar increase during the first six months of 2004 occurred in commercial real estate loans which increased $32.3 million, or 10.9%. This compares to a $18.2 million, or 6.9%, increase in commercial real estate loans during the first six months of 2003. We have also continued to expand our indirect lending portfolio. At June 30, 2004, indirect auto dealer loans accounted for $76.8 million, or 13.0%, of our loan portfolio. This compares to an indirect lending portfolio of $39.2 million at June 30, 2003 which represented 8.3% of our total loan portfolio.

Total loans outstanding were $590.4 million at June 30, 2004, compared to $473.1 million at June 30, 2003. Net charge-offs were $428,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2004 compared to $306,000 for the same period in 2003. Management will continue to monitor the credit quality of the lending portfolio and will recognize additional provisions in the future as necessary, in the opinion of management, to maintain the allowance for loan losses at an appropriate level.

NON-INTEREST INCOME

Non-interest income for the first six months of 2004 was $6,604,000. This represents a $438,000 or 7.1% increase over the prior year period which totaled $6,166,000. The increase in non-interest income is primarily attributable to an increase of

17


Table of Contents

$695,000 in merchant bankcard processing income, partially offset by a decrease of $168,000 in fees on mortgage loans sold, and a $202,000 decrease from the gain on sale of investment in ERAS JV.

The increase in merchant bankcard processing income is primarily a result of volume increases. Fees on mortgage loans sold result from the immediate sale of various residential mortgages (primarily fixed rate loans) in the secondary market. The lower fees earned in the first six months of 2004 compared to the year ago period are attributable to reduced refinancing activity, lower new sales activity, and thinner margins. On May 29, 2003, we sold our remaining interest in ERAS Joint Venture and recognized a pretax gain of $202,000 on this transaction.

NON-INTEREST EXPENSE

Non-interest expense for the first six months of 2004 was $15,947,000. This represents a $2,295,000 or 16.8% increase over the prior year period which totaled $13,652,000. The increase in non-interest expense is attributable to salaries and employee benefits increasing $815,000, net occupancy expense increasing $204,000, and other expense increasing $1,276,000. The increases are primarily the result of costs associated with the growth of our business and continued expansion into the Southwest Florida market.

At June 30, 2004 the Bank had 275 full-time employees and 16 part-time employees, compared to 262 full-time employees and 14 part time employees at June 30, 2003. The increase in staff was required to manage growth of the organization.

In the category of other expense, interchange and other bankcard expensed increased approximately $613,000 over the prior year amount. These expenses are primarily tied to volume, and are consistent with the increase in merchant bankcard processing income we experienced. We did, however, experience an increase in the rates charged by our card associations in April 2004 that also contributed to this increase. Also, in the first six months of 2004, we incurred $196,000 in employee relocation costs. These costs were incurred to relocate various employees, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, in connection with the relocation of our corporate headquarters from the Florida Keys to the Southwest Florida area.

INCOME TAXES

The change in income tax expense is primarily attributable to the growth in income before income taxes. The provision for income taxes related to continuing operations totaled $1,298,000, for an effective tax rate of 33.9%, for the six months ended June 30, 2004, and $1,275,000, for an effective tax rate of 35.0%, for the six months ended June 30, 2003.

BALANCE SHEET

Total assets at June 30, 2004 were $760,520,000, up 13.6% from total assets of $669,298,000 at December 31, 2003. Asset growth was primarily funded by an increase in deposits of $70,581,000, or 12.7%. Loans net of deferred loan costs increased $52.0 million, or 9.6%, to $592.5 million for the first six months of 2004 from year end 2003. The largest dollar increase came in the commercial real estate loan category which increased $32.3 million, or 10.9%. We have also continued to expand our indirect dealer auto loan program. At June 30, 2004, indirect auto loans accounted for $76.8 million, or 13.0%, of our loan portfolio as compared to $59.4 million, or 11.0%, at December 31, 2003. Also, in the same period, investment securities increased $29.1 million as a result of purchases of securities from funds generated from the stock offering in the second quarter of 2004.

During the first six months of 2004, we reduced our advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank by $6.5 million. Total advances outstanding were $38.5 million at June 30, 2004 as compared to $45.0 million at December 31, 2003.

Shareholders’ equity totaled $65.2 million at June 30, 2004, increasing $23.9 million from December 31, 2003. Book value per share increased to $11.52 at June 30, 2004 from $9.31 at December 31, 2003. The Company declared a quarterly dividend of $0.1125 per share in both the first and second quarter of 2004 and $0.11 per share in both the first quarter and second quarter of 2003.

On April 15, 2004, we closed the sale of 1,000,000 shares of our common stock at a price of $22.00 per share before commissions and expenses. The shares were sold on a firm commitment basis through Advest, Inc. Advest, Inc. also purchased an additional 150,000 shares from the Company on May 6, 2004, at $22.00 per share before commissions and expenses. The net proceeds of the offering totaling $23.2 million provides capital to support continued loan and deposit growth throughout our South Florida markets.

NON-PERFORMING ASSETS

Non-performing assets include nonaccrual loans, accruing loans contractually past due 90 days or more, repossessed personal property, and other real estate. Loans are placed on nonaccrual status when management has concerns relating to the ability to

collect the loan principal and interest and generally when such loans are 90 days or more past due. A loan is considered impaired when it is probable that not all principal and interest amounts will be collected according to the loan contract.

Non-performing assets were as follows:

    464.5 %     1,336.33 %

(a) Non-performing loans exclude the $1.6 million loan discussed below that is guaranteed for both principal and interest by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA).

(b) Nonaccrual loans increased $860,000 from December 31, 2003 to June 30, 2004. Of the increase, $591,000 is attributable to the addition of one loan to nonaccrual status during the second quarter of 2004. In July 2004, this loan was satisfactorily paid off.

(c) The Bank made a $10,000,000 loan to construct a lumber mill in northern Florida. Of this amount, $6,400,000 had been sold by the Bank to other lenders. The loan was partially guaranteed as to principal and interest by the USDA. In addition to business real estate and equipment, the loan was collateralized by the business owner’s interest in a trust. Under provisions of the trust agreement, beneficiaries cannot receive trust assets until November 2010.

During 2001, upon completion of foreclosure on the underlying collateral, the non-guaranteed portion of this loan and interest accrued through the foreclosure date was reclassified into other real estate ($550,000) and other assets (approximately $1,886,000) based on the fair value of the underlying-collateral. The portion of this loan guaranteed by the USDA was approximately $1.6 million at June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, and is accruing interest. Accrued interest on this loan totals approximately $632,000 and $590,000 at June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively.

The Bank is pursuing a sale of the property and equipment and has incurred various expenditures. The Bank capitalized the liquidation costs and a portion of the protective advances which it expects will be fully reimbursed by the USDA. Other real estate recorded on the Bank’s books totaled $192,000 and $193,000 at June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively. The non-guaranteed principal and interest ($1,961,000 at June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003) and the reimbursable capitalized liquidation costs and protective advance costs totaling approximately $570,000 and $511,000 at June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively, are included as “other assets” in the financial statements.

The Bank sold certain pieces of equipment associated with the lumber mill property. Proceeds from the sales were used to reduce the other real estate amount and liquidation cost amounts recorded on the Bank’s books. In 2003, the Bank wrote down the carrying amount of the other real estate by $262,000 based upon anticipated proceeds from the sale of the property and remaining equipment.

Florida law requires a bank to liquidate or charge off repossessed real property within five years, and repossessed personal property within six months. The Bank was awarded title to the real property on June 12, 2001, and an adjudicated interest in the owner’s trust proceeds. The time constraints imposed by Florida law required that the personal property be disposed of or charged off by December 2001. The Bank applied to the State of Florida for an extension to carry the personal property on the Bank’s books and was granted an extension to carry the personal property on its books until June 11, 2003. Since the property had not been liquidated as of such date, the Bank charged-off the non guaranteed principal and interest totaling $1,961,000 at June 30, 2003, for regulatory purposes. Since we believe this amount is ultimately realizable, we did not write off this amount for financial statement purposes under generally accepted accounting principles.

The allowance for loan losses amounted to $5,806,000 and $5,216,000 at June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively.

The allowance for loan losses is a valuation allowance for probable incurred credit losses in the loan portfolio. Our process for assessing the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses and the resultant need, if any, for periodic provisions to the allowance charged to income, includes both individual loan analyses and loan pool analyses. Individual loan analyses are periodically performed on loan relationships of a significant size, or when otherwise deemed necessary, and primarily encompass commercial real estate and other commercial loans. The result is that commercial real estate loans and commercial loans are divided into the following risk categories: Pass, Special Mention, and Substandard or worse. When appropriate a specific reserve will be established for individual loans. Otherwise, we allocate an allowance for each risk category. The allocations are based on factors including historical loss rate, perceived economic conditions (local, national and global), perceived strength of our management, recent trends in loan loss history, and concentrations of credit.

Home equity loans, indirect auto dealer loans, residential loans and consumer loans generally are not analyzed individually. These loans are grouped into pools and assigned risk categories based on their current payment status and management’s assessment of risk inherent in the various types of loans. As above, when appropriate, a specific reserve will be established for individual loans. Otherwise, we allocate an allowance for each loan classification. The allocations are based on the same factors mentioned above.

Based on an analysis performed by management at June 30, 2004, the allowance for loan losses is considered to be adequate to cover estimated loan losses in the portfolio as of that date. However, management’s judgment is based upon a number of assumptions about future events, which are believed to be reasonable, but which may or may not prove valid. Thus, there can be no assurance that charge-offs in future periods will not exceed the allowance for loan losses or that significant additional increases in the allowance for loan losses will not be required. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review our allowance for loan losses. Such agencies may require us to recognize additions to the allowance based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination.

LIQUIDITY

The goal of liquidity management is to ensure the availability of an adequate level of funds to meet the loan demand and deposit withdrawal needs of the Company’s customers. We manage the levels, types and maturities of earning assets in relation to the sources available to fund current and future needs to ensure that adequate funding will be available at all times.

In addition to maintaining a stable core deposit base, we maintain adequate liquidity primarily through the use of investment securities and unused borrowing capacity. The Bank has invested in Federal Home Loan Bank stock for the purpose of establishing credit lines with the Federal Home Loan Bank. The credit availability to the Bank is equal to 20 percent of the Bank’s total assets as reported on the most recent quarterly financial information submitted to the regulators subject to the pledging of sufficient collateral. At June 30, 2004, there were $38.5 million in advances outstanding in addition to a $15 million letter of credit used in lieu of pledging securities to the State of Florida. In July 2004, new agreements were executed with the FHLB and a blanket floating lien pledge of the Bank’s residential 1-4 family mortgage and commercial real estate secured loans was done to bring the collateral availability up to approximately $138.8 million.

The Bank has an unsecured overnight federal funds purchased accommodation up to a maximum of $12.0 million from its principal correspondent bank.

In the second quarter of 2004, we completed the sale of 1,150,000 shares of our common stock at a price of $22.00 per share before commissions and expenses. The net proceeds provided additional liquidity along with additional capital to the Company. The net proceeds of the offering will be used to provide capital to support continued loan and deposit growth throughout our South Florida markets.

ASSET AND LIABILITY MANAGEMENT

Closely related to liquidity management is the management of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The Company manages its rate sensitivity position to avoid wide swings in net interest margins and to minimize risk due to changes in interest rates.

We are cumulatively liability sensitive through the one year time period, and asset sensitive in the over one year timeframes above. Certain liabilities such as NOW and passbook savings accounts, while technically subject to immediate repricing in response to changing market rates, historically do not reprice as quickly nor to the extent as other interest sensitive accounts. Accordingly, if market interest rates should decrease, it is anticipated that the net interest margin would decrease. Because of non-interest bearing liabilities, total interest-earning assets are substantially greater than the total interest-bearing liabilities and therefore it is anticipated that over time the effects on net interest income from changes in asset yield will be greater than the change in expense from liability cost. Therefore, if rates increase it is anticipated that the net interest margin would over time increase and this is particularly true over longer time horizons since the Company has more total assets subject to rate changes than total liabilities that are rate sensitive. However, over the next several months, the liquidity generated from our recent stock offering will cause some compression in net interest margin until these funds are fully invested, irrespective of changes in market interest rates.

Even in the near term, we believe the $123 million one year cumulative negative sensitivity gap may exaggerate the probable effects on earnings in a rising rate environment for two reasons. First, the liabilities subject to repricing are predominately not indexed to any specific market rate and therefore offer the Company the opportunity to delay or diminish any rate repricings. Further, in this current rate environment, the Bank has been originating loans with interest rate floors. The effect of this has been to decrease the volatility of net interest margin and decrease asset sensitivity due to the fact that these loans behave similar to fixed rate loans in periods over a significant range of interest rate changes.

Interest-earning assets and other time deposits are presented based on their contractual terms. It is anticipated that run off in any deposit category will be approximately offset by new deposit generation. Since we have experienced steady growth in deposits, no net run off in any deposit category is assumed in the interest rate sensitivity table. It is our policy to maintain our cumulative one year gap ratio in the –20% to +10% range. At June 30, 2004, we were within this range with a one year cumulative sensitivity ratio of -17.9%.

COMMITMENTS

The Bank is a 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 include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheets.

21


Table of Contents

The Bank’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to financial instruments for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual notional amount of these instruments. The Bank uses the same credit policies in making commitments to extend credit and generally uses the same credit policies for letters of credit as it does for on-balance sheet instruments.

Commitments to extend credit are legally binding agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Since some of these commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amount does not necessarily represent future cash requirements. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require the payment of a fee. At June 30, 2004, total unfunded loan commitments were approximately $74.7 million.

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Bank to assure the performance or financial obligations of a customer to a third party. The credit risk involved in issuing standby letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers. The Bank generally holds collateral and/or obtains personal guarantees supporting these commitments. Since most of the letters of credit are expected to expire without being drawn upon, they do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. At June 30, 2004, commitments under standby letters of credit aggregated approximately $2.2 million.

The Company believes the likelihood of the unfunded loan commitments and unfunded letters of credit either needing to be totally funded or funded at the same time is low. However, should significant funding requirements occur, we have available borrowing capacity from various sources as discussed in the “Liquidity” section above.

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market risk is the risk that a financial institution’s earnings and capital, or its ability to meet its business objectives, will be adversely affected by movements in market rates or prices such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates, equity rates, equity prices, credit spreads and/or commodity prices. The Company has assessed its market risk as predominately interest rate risk.

The following interest rate sensitivity analysis information as of June 30, 2004 was developed using simulation analysis of the Company’s sensitivity to changes in net interest income under varying assumptions for changes in market interest rates. Specifically, the model derives expected interest income and interest expense resulting from an immediate and parallel shift in the yield curve in the amounts shown.

These rate changes are matched with known repricing intervals and assumptions for new growth net of expected prepayments. The assumptions are based primarily on experience in the Company’s market under varying rate environments. The imbedded options that the Company’s loan customers possess to refinance are considered for purposes of this analysis and cause the larger decreases in income in a declining rate scenario versus the income increases in the same size rising rate scenario.

This analysis intentionally exaggerates interest sensitivity. For the sake of simplicity and comparability, an immediate change in rates is assumed. However, any significant change in actual market rates would probably be phased in over an extended period of time. This phase in would reduce the net interest income effects for any absolute change in rates. Also, the Company has been originating adjustable rate commercial loans with interest rate floors that are currently at rates higher than the index and margin on the loans would indicate. An example would be a loan at Prime plus 1% but with a 7.0% floor. The Company currently has in excess of $224 million of these types of loans where the loan rates are at the floors. The effects of this are twofold. First, this has benefited our margins currently since we have assets earning yields higher than would be the case absent the floor rates. Second, in a declining rate environment and in a limited rising rate environment those “adjustable” rate loans act like fixed rate loans. This limits the Company’s loss of interest income when rates decline but does constrain income gains in a rising rate market. As rates increase beyond 200 basis points from their current level the effect on net interest income turns around and begins to expand positively due to an increasing percentage of loans going past their floors. Also, the passage of time moderates the negative near term impact of rising rates as new loans are by definition originated at the current, now higher, rate levels. In general, having this significant amount of loans at their floors reduces the Company’s overall rate sensitivity.

The Company attempts to retain interest rate neutrality by generating mostly adjustable rate loans and managing the securities, wholesale funding, and Fed Funds positions to offset the repricing characteristics of the deposit liabilities.

Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

The Company maintains controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Based upon their evaluation of those controls and procedures performed as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were adequate. No significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in the design or operation of internal controls which could adversely affect the Company’s ability to record, process, summarize, and report financial data have been identified.

No fraud that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in the Company’s internal controls has been discovered.

Changes in internal controls

The Company made no significant changes in its internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of the evaluation of those controls by the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer; including any corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting will prevent all errors and all improper conduct. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the controls system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of improper conduct, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake.
