Part I. Financial Information
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations

The following discussion contains certain forward-looking statements
within the meaning of and made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of
the Private Litigation Securities Reform Act of 1995.

The following discussion of the financial condition and results of
operations of the Registrant (the Company) should be read in conjunction
with the Company's financial statements and related notes and other statistical
information included elsewhere herein.

General

Calvin B. Taylor Bankshares, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated as a
Maryland corporation on October 31, 1995. The Company owns all of the
stock of Calvin B. Taylor Banking Company (the "Bank"), a commercial bank
that was established in 1890 and incorporated under the laws of the State
of Maryland on December 17, 1907. The Bank operates nine branches in
Worcester County, Maryland and one branch in Ocean View, Delaware. The
Bank's administrative office is located in Berlin, Maryland. The Bank is
engaged in a general commercial and retail banking business serving individuals,
businesses, and governmental units in Worcester County, Maryland, Ocean View,
Delaware, and neighboring counties. The Company currently engages in no
business other than owning and managing the Bank.

Critical Accounting Policies

The Company's financial condition and results of operations are
sensitive to accounting measurements and estimates of inherently uncertain
matters. When applying accounting policies in areas that are subjective in
nature, management uses its best judgment to arrive at the carrying value of
certain assets. One of the most critical accounting policies applied is
related to the valuation of the loan portfolio. Management estimates the
appropriate allowance for loan losses, including the timing of loan charge-offs.

The allowance for loan losses represents a reserve for potential losses
in the loan portfolio. It is one of the most difficult and subjective
judgments. The adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is evaluated
periodically based on a review of the loan portfolio, with a particular
emphasis on non-accruing, past due, and other loans that management believes
require attention. The determination of the reserve level relies on
management's judgment about factors affecting loan quality, current trends
in delinquencies and charge-offs, and anticipated changes in the composition
and size of the portfolio. Management also considers external factors such
as changes in the interest rate environment, the view of the Bank's regulators,
economic conditions in the Bank's service area and beyond, and legislation
that affects the banking industry.

Financial Condition

Total assets of the Company increased $25.7 million from December 31, 2003
to September 30, 2004. Combined deposits and customer repurchase agreements
increased $22.0 million during the same period. During the first quarter of
the year, the Bank typically experiences a decline in deposits since business
customers are using their deposits to meet cash flow needs. Generally, this
situation reverses late in the second quarter of the year as the Bank
receives deposits from seasonal business customers, summer residents and
tourists. During the first nine months of 2003, this traditional pattern did
not apply. Management believes that adverse conditions in the stock markets
contributed to unusually large increases in deposits in the first three
quarters of last year. After nearly three years of unusually large deposit
increases, the Bank appears to be returning to a more historically typical
model in 2004.

During the first nine months of 2004, the Bank's gross loan portfolio
decreased $4.0 million. Management believes that steep competition in a
historically low interest rate market is responsible for much of this decline.


Historically, the Company has low loan charge-offs. Based on a review
of the consolidated loan portfolio, the Company determined that an allowance
of 1.36% of gross loans was adequate as of September 30, 2004. At December
31, 2003, the allowance was 1.33% of gross loans. At September 30, 2004,
there was one non-accruing loan with an outstanding principal balance of
$866. Loans delinquent ninety days or more, and still accruing interest,
totaled $302,568 or .19% of the portfolio.

Liquidity

The Company's major sources of liquidity are loan repayments, maturities
of short-term investments including federal funds sold, and increases in
core deposits. Throughout the first quarter of the year, when the Bank
typically experiences a decline in deposits, federal funds sold and investment
securities are primary sources of liquidity. During the second quarter of
the year, additional sources of liquidity become more readily available as
business borrowers start repaying loans, and the Bank receives seasonal
deposits. Throughout the second and third quarters the Bank maintains a
high liquidity level. Funds from seasonal deposits are generally invested
in short-term U.S. Treasury Bills and overnight federal funds. Average
liquid assets (cash and amounts due from banks, interest bearing deposits
in other banks, federal funds sold, and investment securities) compared to
average deposits were 69.85% for the third quarter of 2004 compared to 67.47%
for the third quarter of 2003. This increase in liquidity is primarily due
to growth in deposits, which has not been accompanied by a corresponding
increase in demand for loans.

Results of Operations

Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2004, was $1,447,964
or $.45 per share, compared to $1,429,125 or $.44 per share for the third
quarter of 2003. This represents an increase of $18,839 or 1.32% from the prior
year. Year to date net income decreased $69,829 or $.02 per share to $4,161,841
or $1.29 per share in 2004 from $4,231,670 or $1.31 per share in 2003. The year
to date decrease in net income is comprised of a $128,686 decrease in net
interest income, a $148,578 increase in non-interest revenues, a $204,721
increase in non-interest expense, and a $115,000 decrease in income tax expense.

Net interest income decreased $128,686 in the first nine months of 2004
compared to the first nine months of 2003, largely attributable to the fall
of market rates throughout 2001 through 2003. Although deposit rates
dropped to their current level in July 2003, the Bank's loan and investment
portfolios have continued to reprice downward. Management expects to see a
gradual upward repricing of earnings assets and liabilities as the upward
market rate trend begun earlier this year continues. The first earning
asset to reflect this trend is the overnight investment in federal funds
sold.

The Company's net interest income is one of the most important factors
in evaluating its financial performance. Management uses interest sensitivity
analysis to determine the effect of rate changes. Net interest income is
projected over a one-year period to determine the effect of an increase or
decrease in the prime rate of 100 basis points. If prime were to decrease
one hundred basis points, and all assets and liabilities maturing within
that period were fully adjusted for the rate change, the Company would
experience a decrease of less than five percent in net interest income.
The sensitivity analysis does not consider the likelihood of these rate
changes nor whether management's reaction to this rate change would be to
reprice its loans or deposits.

No provision for loan losses was made in the first three quarters of
2004 or 2003. Net loans charged-off / (recovered) were $2,393 during the
first nine months of 2004, versus ($4,385) during the same period in 2003.

Non-interest revenue, including service charges on deposit accounts,
increased $51,987 from third quarter 2003 to third quarter 2004. For the
year to date, non-interest revenue has increased $148,578 from 2003 to 2004.
Revenue increases are primarily due to deposit services charges assessed
against a larger deposit base and fee increases placed in effect in May 2004.
Additionally, the Bank purchased Bank Owned Life Insurance policies at a
cost of $4.0 million in August 2003. The year to date tax-exempt increase
in cash surrender value of $121,327 on these policies is included in
miscellaneous non-interest revenue.

Employee benefit costs for nine months ended September 30, 2004 versus
the same period in 2003, are $79,883 higher including an $86,962 increase
in group insurance costs. Salaries were slightly lower in the third quarter
of 2004 versus 2003, and are up only slightly year to date. Throughout the
year, the Bank has made an effort to streamline the employee roster,
increasing production per employee. Lower salaries in the current quarter
result from a decreased number of full time equivalent employees along
with reduced overtime stemming from increased efficiency. The Bank, which
hires seasonal employees during the summer, employed 90 full time equivalent
employees as of September 30, 2004, versus 97 full time equivalent employees
at September 30, 2003. The Company has no employees other than those hired
by the bank.

The Company's occupancy expense increased $44,696 for nine months
ended September 30, 2004 from the same period in 2003. Notable factors
in this increase are increased depreciation and real estate taxes related
to the newly constructed operations wing added to the Berlin, Maryland
office in August 2003.

Third quarter income taxes are $28,000 less than last year, on a
pre-tax income decrease of $9,161. Year-to-date income taxes are $115,000
less than last year, on a pre-tax income decrease of $184,829. Of the
$115,000 decrease, approximately $46,850 is due to the tax-exempt income
from bank owned life insurance. The balance relates to the overall
decrease in earnings.

Plans of Operation

The Bank offers a full range of deposit services including checking,
NOW, Money Market, and savings accounts, and time deposits including
certificates of deposit. The transaction accounts and time certificates are
tailored to the Bank's principal market areas at rates competitive to those
offered in the area. In addition, the Bank offers certain retirement account
services, such as Individual Retirements Accounts ("IRAs"). All deposits are
insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the "FDIC") up to the
maximum amount allowed by law (generally, $100,000 per depositor subject to
aggregation rules). The Bank solicits these accounts from individuals,
businesses, associations and organizations, and governmental authorities.

The Company, through the Bank, offers a full range of short- to medium-
term commercial and personal loans. Commercial loans include both secured and
unsecured loans for working capital (including inventory and receivables),
business expansion (including acquisition of real estate and improvements),
and purchase of equipment and machinery. Consumer loans include secured and
unsecured loans for financing automobiles, home improvements, education, and
personal investments. The Company originates commercial and residential
mortgage loans and real estate construction and acquisition loans. These
lending activities are subject to a variety of lending limits imposed by
state and federal law. The Bank may not make any loans to any director
or executive officer (except for commercial loans to directors who are not
officers or employees) unless the Board of Directors of the Bank approves
the loans. The Board of Directors must review any such loan every six months.

Other bank services include cash management services, 24-hour ATM's,
debit cards, safe deposit boxes, travelers' checks, direct deposit of
payroll and social security, and automatic drafts. The Bank offers bank-
by-phone and Internet banking services, including electronic bill-payment,
to both commercial and retail customers.

Capital Resources and Adequacy

Total stockholders' equity increased $3,695,119 from December 31, 2003
to September 30, 2004. This increase is attributable to the comprehensive
income recorded during the period, as detailed in Note 2 of the Notes to
Financial Statements, reduced by $590,688 used to purchase and retire 16,408
shares of common stock. Stock repurchases were at a price of $36.00 dollars
per share.

Under the capital guidelines of the Federal Reserve Board and the
FDIC, the Company and Bank are currently required to maintain a minimum
risk-based total capital ratio of 8%, with at least 4% being Tier 1
capital. Tier 1 capital consists of stockholders' equity less
accumulated other comprehensive income. In addition, the Company and the
Bank must maintain a minimum Tier 1 leverage ratio (Tier 1 capital to
total assets) of at least 3%, but this minimum ratio is increased by 100
to 200 basis points for other than the highest-rated institutions.

Tier one risk-based capital ratios of the Company as of September 30,
2004 and 2003 were 41.77% and 36.75%, respectively. Both are substantially
in excess of regulatory minimum requirements.

Website Access to SEC Reports

The Bank maintains an Internet website at www.taylorbank.com. The
Company's periodic SEC reports, including annual reports on Form 10-K,
quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, and current reports on Form 8-K, are
accessible through this website. Access to these filings is free of
charge. The reports are available as soon as practicable after they are
filed electronically with the SEC.




Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The Company's principal market risk exposure relates to interest rates on
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Unlike most
industrial companies, the assets and liabilities of financial institutions
such as the Company and the Bank are primarily monetary in nature. Therefore,
interest rates have a more significant effect on the Company's performance than
do the effects of changes in the general rate of inflation and change in prices.
In addition, interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or
in the same magnitude as the prices of goods and services. As discussed
previously, management monitors and seeks to manage the relationships
between interest sensitive assets and liabilities in order to protect
against wide interest rate fluctuations, including those resulting from
inflation.

At September 30, 2004, the Company's interest rate sensitivity, as
measured by gap analysis, showed the Company was asset-sensitive with a
one-year cumulative gap of 14.34%, as a percentage of interest-earning
assets. Generally asset-sensitivity indicates that assets reprice more
quickly than liabilities and in a rising rate environment net interest
income typically increases. Conversely, if interest rates decrease, net
interest income would decline. The Bank has classified its demand
mortgage and commercial loans as immediately repriceable. Unlike loans
tied to prime, these rates do not necessarily change as prime changes
since the decision to call the loans and change the rates rests with
management.


Item 4. Controls and procedures

Within the ninety days prior to the date of this report, the
Company's management performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of the
design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures
and its internal controls and procedures for financial reporting.
Disclosure Controls are procedures that are designed to ensure that
information required to be disclosed in the Company's publicly filed
reports is reported in a timely manner. As part of these controls,
Management reviews information gathered through systems developed for
that purpose to determine the nature of required disclosure.

Internal controls are procedures designed to provide management with
reasonable assurance that assets are safeguarded, and that transactions
are properly authorized, executed, and recorded to permit the preparation
of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles. Because of inherent limitations in any internal controls,
errors or irregularities may occur and not be detected. The projection
of an evaluation of controls to future periods is subject to the risk
that procedures may become inadequate due to changes in conditions
including the degree of compliance with procedures.

The Chief Executive Officer and the Treasurer of the Company have
concluded, based on the evaluation of disclosure controls and internal
controls that the financial information and disclosures included in
periodic SEC filings and the Company's financial statements are fairly
presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

Changes in Internal Controls

There were no significant changes in the company's internal controls
or in other factors that could significantly affect internal controls,
including corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies and
material weaknesses.
