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


This Report contains statements which constitute forward-looking statements
within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These statements appear in a number of places
in this Report and include all statements regarding the intent, belief or
current expectations of the Company, its directors, or its officers with respect
to, among other things: (i) the Company's financing plans; (ii) trends affecting
the Company's financial condition or results of operations; (iii) the Company's
growth strategy and operating strategy; and (iv) the declaration and payment of
dividends. Investors are cautioned that any such forward-looking statements are
not guarantees of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties, and
that actual results may differ materially from those projected in the
forward-looking statements as a result of various factors discussed herein and
those factors discussed in detail in the Company's filings with the Securities
and Exchange Commission.

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. (Company) was incorporated as a Maryland
corporation on October 31, 1995. The Company owns all of the stock of Calvin B.
Taylor Banking Company (Bank), a commercial bank that was established in 1890
and incorporated under the laws of the State of Maryland on December 17, 1907.
This bank operates nine banking offices in Worcester County, Maryland and one
banking office 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

While total assets of the Company increased $6.4 million from December 31,
2004 to March 31, 2005, average total assets of the Company decreased $18.5
million from 4th quarter 2004 to 1st quarter 2005. Average deposits decreased
$17.8 million from 4th quarter 2004 to 1st quarter 2005. Historically, during
the first quarter of the year, the Bank 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. This seasonal influx peaks in the third quarter and begins to fall
off in the last quarter of each year.

During the first quarter of 2005, the Bank's gross loan portfolio has
increased $10.1 million. Funding for these loans was provided primarily by a
reduction in the Bank's investment portfolio. As loans earn at a higher rate
than investments, this shift has a positive impact on earnings.

Historically, the Company has low loan charge-offs. Based on a review of
the consolidated loan portfolio, the Company determined that an allowance
of 1.26% of gross loans was adequate as of March 31, 2005. At December 31,
2004,the allowance was 1.33% of gross loans. At March 31, 2005, loans
delinquent ninety days or more totaled $685,316 or .39% of the portfolio.
There were no non-accruing loans as of March 31, 2005 or December 31, 2004.


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
65.11% for the first quarter of 2005, compared to 64.27% for the first quarter
of 2004.


Results of Operations

Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2005, was $1,500,459 or
$.47 per share, compared to $1,342,784 or $.42 per share for the first quarter
of 2004. This represents an increase of $157,675.

Net interest income increased $239,552 in the first three months of 2005
compared to the first three months of 2004. This increase is attributable to
the rise of market rates that began in mid-2004. The Company's overnight
investment in federal funds sold has repriced with the market, while short-term
debt securities are repricing more slowly. The Company's Management has
implemented gradual increases to deposit rates. 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 two 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.

Page 9


No provision for loan losses was charged to expense during the first
quarters of 2005 or 2004. Net loan charge-offs (recoveries) were ($14,626)
during the first quarter of 2005 versus ($583) during the first quarter of 2004.

Other noninterest revenues exceeds last year by $10,277 primarily due to
increase usage of VISA debit cards.

Other noninterest expense variances include a decrease in salaries and
employee benefits of $27,955. Management has implemented a strategy to reduce
the number of year-round staff and employ more seasonal employees in the
summer when the local resorts bring increased activity to branches. The Bank
employed 93 full time equivalent employees as of March 31, 2005. The Bank hires
seasonal employees during the summer. The Company has no employees other than
those hired by the Bank.

Income taxes are $92,000 higher than last year, on a pre-tax income
increase of $249,675. This is consistent with the Company's effective tax rate
of approximately 35.5%.


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, also 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 loans 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 $1,418,102 from December 31, 2004 to
March 31, 2005. 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 $179,064 used to purchase and retire 4,974 shares of
common stock. Stock repurchases were at a price of $36.00 dollars per share.

Page 10


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 4%, 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 March 31, 2005 and
2004 were 40.25% and 40.68%, 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 March 31, 2005, the Company's interest rate sensitivity, as measured by
gap analysis, showed the Company was asset-sensitive with a one-year cumulative
gap of 7.94%, 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.

Page 11


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.

establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as defined
in Exchange Act Rules 13a-14 and 15d-14) for the registrant and we have:
a) designed such disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that

committee of the registrant's board of directors (or persons performing the

in internal controls; and
b) any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or
other employees who have a significant role in the registrant's
internal controls; and
6. The registrant's other certifying officers and I have indicated in the

controls or in other factors that could significantly affect internal
controls subsequent to the date of our most recent evaluation, including any
