CAVALRY BANCORP, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Basis of Presentation

Cavalry Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company"), a Tennessee corporation, is the holding
company for Cavalry Banking (the "Bank") which is a state chartered Federal
Reserve member commercial bank. Miller & Loughry Insurance and Services, Inc.
("Miller & Loughry"), an independent insurance agency, is a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Bank.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Miller &
Loughry, the Bank and the Company. All material intercompany accounts and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been
prepared in accordance with Instructions to Form 10-Q. 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
statements. However, such information reflects all adjustments (consisting
solely of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management,
necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim periods.

The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, are
not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending
December 31, 2002. The consolidated financial statements and notes thereto
should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements
and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2001.

2. Acquisitions

On January 4, 2002, Cavalry Banking, a wholly owned subsidiary of Cavalry
Bancorp, Inc., completed the acquisition of 100% of the capital stock issued and
outstanding of Miller & Loughry Insurances and Services, Inc., for a cash
purchase price of approximately $2.0 million.

Due to the insignificant effect on the financial position and results of
operations, no pro-forma data of this acquisition is required or presented.

3. Earnings Per Share

The following schedule reconciles the numerators and denominators of the basic
and diluted earnings per share ("EPS") computations for the three and six months
ended June 30, 2002 and 2001. Diluted common shares arise from the potentially
dilutive effect of the Company's stock options outstanding.

4. Business Segments

The Company and its subsidiary provide community oriented banking services to
individuals and businesses primarily within Rutherford and Bedford counties in
Middle Tennessee.

The Company's segments are identified by the products and services offered,
principally distinguished as banking, trust, insurance, and mortgage banking
operations. The majority of loans originated for sale are sold with the
servicing rights attached.

Segment information is derived from the internal reporting system utilized by
management with accounting policies and procedures consistent with those
described in Note 1 of the 2001 Annual Report to Shareholders. Segment
performance is evaluated by the Company based on profit or loss before income
taxes. Revenue, expense, and asset levels reflect those which can be
specifically identified and those assigned based on internally developed
allocation methods. These methods have been consistently applied.

5. New Accounting Standards Pronouncements

SFAS No. 140, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and
Extinguishments of Liabilities," was issued in September 2000. This statement
replaces SFAS No. 125, and requires certain disclosures, but carries over most
of the provisions of SFAS No. 125. SFAS 140 was effective for transfers and
servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of liabilities of the Company
occurring after March 31, 2001 and did not have a material impact on the
Company's financial statements.

SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations" issued on June 29, 2001 requires business
combinations entered into after June 30, 2001 to be accounted for using the
purchase method of accounting. Specifically identifiable intangible assets
acquired, other than goodwill, will be amortized over their estimated useful
economic life. This pronouncement had no material effect on the Company's
financial statements.

SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets", issued on June 29, 2001,
addresses how intangible assets that are acquired individually or with a group
of other assets should be accounted for in financial statements upon their
acquisition. This statement also addresses how goodwill and other intangible
assets should be accounted for after they have been initially recognized in the
financial statements. This statement results in the end to systematic goodwill
and other intangible amortization and requires impairment testing on those
balances at least annually or if circumstances arise that suggest that
impairment may be an issue. SFAS No. 142 was effective for the Company
beginning on January 1, 2002 and is applicable to all goodwill and other
intangible assets regardless of when those assets were initially recognized.

SFAS No. 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations", issued in June
2001, addresses financial accounting and reporting for legal obligations
associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated
asset retirement costs. SFAS No. 143 is effective for fiscal years beginning
after June 15, 2002. This Statement is not expected to have a material impact
on the Company's financial statements.

SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets" issued in
August 2001, supercedes SFAS 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived
Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of" and the accounting and
reporting provisions of APB No. 30, "Reporting the Results of Operations -
Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary,
Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions," for the disposal of
a segment of a business. While SFAS No. 144 retains many of the fundamental
provisions of SFAS No. 121, it establishes a single accounting model for
long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale, and resolves certain implementation
issues not previously addressed by SFAS No. 121. SFAS No. 144 is effective for
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. This Statement did not have a
material impact on the Company's financial statements.

6. Deferred Compensation and Retirement Plans

The Company has entered into separate deferred compensation arrangements
with the Board of Directors and certain senior officers. The plans call for
amounts payable at retirement, death or disability as defined in the agreements.
The estimated present value of the deferred compensation will be accrued over
the remaining expected term of active employment. The Bank has purchased life
insurance policies that it intends to use to finance this liability.

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

Private Securities Litigation Reform Act Safe Harbor Statement

This Quarterly Report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of
the federal securities laws. These statements are not historical facts, rather
statements based on the Company's current expectations regarding its business
strategies and their intended results and its future performance.
Forward-looking statements are preceded by terms such as "expects," "believes,"
"anticipates," "intends," and similar expressions.

Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance. Numerous
risks and uncertainties could cause the Company's actual results, performance,
and achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied by
the forward-looking statements. Factors that may cause or contribute to these
differences include, without limitation, general economic conditions, including
changes in market interest rates and changes in monetary and fiscal policies of
the federal government; legislative and regulatory changes; and other factors
disclosed periodically in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.

Because of the risks and uncertainties inherent in forward-looking statements,
readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on them, whether included in
this report or made elsewhere from time to time by the Company or on its behalf.
The Company assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements.

Comparison of Financial Condition at June 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001

Total assets were $419.5 million at June 30, 2002, compared to $432.9 million at
December 31, 2001, a decrease of $13.4 million or 3.10%. This decline was
primarily a result of a decline in total deposits. As a result of the decline
in deposits, cash and cash equivalents decreased from $69.3 million at December
31, 2001, to $54.0 million at June 30, 2002. Investment securities
available-for-sale decreased from $41.8 million at December 31, 2001, to $33.5
million at June 30, 2002 as a result of maturing securities being used to fund
increases in office properties and equipment. Loans receivable net increased
$11.7 million from $280.2 million at December 31, 2001, to $291.9 million at
June 30, 2002. Office properties and equipment increased from $15.6 million at
December 31, 2001 to $17.8 million at June 30, 2002. This increase was a result
of the purchase of land for a future branch location, completion of the first
floor of the Financial Services Building, and purchase of computers and banking
equipment. The first floor of the Financial Services Building now houses Miller
and Loughry, the Investment Management and Trust Department and Cavalry
Investment services. In the first quarter of 2002, the Company completed the
purchase of Miller & Loughry, an independent insurance agency, for $2.0
million. The increase in goodwill was a result of the purchase of Miller &
Loughry.

Deposit accounts decreased $14.6 million from $381.0 million at December 31,
2001, to $366.4 million at June 30, 2002. Certificates of deposit increased
$4.1 million from $145.6 million at December 31, 2001 to $149.7 million at June
30, 2002. Savings deposits increased $2.0 million from $13.9 million at
December 31, 2001 to $15.9 million at June 30, 2002. Money market accounts
decreased $1.4 million from $91.6 million at December 31, 2001 to $90.2 million
at June 30, 2002. NOW accounts declined $18.9 million from $81.6 million at
December 31, 2001 to $62.7 million at June 30, 2002. Transaction accounts
decreased $500,000 from $48.3 million at December 31, 2001 to $47.8 million at
June 30, 2002. Management feels that these declines are temporary, and will
continue to market deposit relationships.

Stockholders' equity increased by $500,000 from $48.8 million at December 31,
2001, to $49.3 million at June 30, 2002. This increase was a result of net
income of $2.2 million and the release of $526,000 in ESOP shares. These
increases were partially offset by dividends of $610,000, the repurchase and
retirement of $1.5 million in Company common stock, and a decrease in unrealized
gains on available-for-sale securities of $71,000, net of taxes.

Non-performing assets were $394,000 at December 31, 2001 and $982,000 at June
30, 2002.

June 30, 2001.

Net Income. Net income was $1.2 million for the three months ended June 30,
2002 compared to $953,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2001. Return on
average assets increased from 0.97% for the three months ended June 30, 2001, to

2002. Earnings per share increased from $0.15 per diluted share for the three
months ended June 30, 2001, to $0.17 per diluted share for the same period in
2002. This increase was primarily a result of higher net interest income, a
lower provision for loan losses and higher non-interest income. These increases
were partially offset by higher non-interest expenses.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased $396,000 from $3.7 million
for the three months ended June 30, 2001, to $4.1 million for the same period in
2002. Interest rate spread increased from 3.48% for the three months ended June
30, 2001, to 4.25% for the same period in 2002. Net interest margin increased

decreased from $6.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001, to $5.3
million for the same period in 2002. Average loans outstanding increased from
$282.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001, to $289.7 million for
the same period in 2002. The average yield decreased from 8.78% for the three
months ended June 30, 2001, to 7.34% for the same period in 2002, as a result of
declining interest rates. Income on all other investments consisting of
mortgage backed securities, other investments, Federal Home Loan Bank and
Federal Reserve Bank stock, bank deposits and federal funds decreased from $1.0
million for the three months ended June 30, 2001, to $581,000 for the same
period in 2002. Average investments decreased from $77.0 million for the three
months ended June 30, 2001, to $74.3 million for the same period in 2002. The

3.13% for the same period in 2002.

Interest expense decreased from $3.5 million for the three months ended June 30,
2001, to $1.8 million for the same period in 2002. Average interest-bearing
deposits increased from $307.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001,
to $319.0 million for the same period in 2002. This increase was a result of
continuing efforts to increase market share of deposits. The average cost of
deposits decreased from 4.52% for the three months ended June 30, 2001, to 2.23%
for the same period in 2002. Average borrowings decreased from $1.0 million at
an average cost of 1.95% for the three months ended June 30, 2001 to $976,000 at
an average cost of 2.05% for the same period in 2002. The total cost of funds
decreased from 4.51% for the three months ended June 30, 2001, to 2.23% for the
same period in 2002. Average interest-bearing liabilities increased from $308.6
million for the three months ended June 30, 2001, to $320.0 million for the same
period in 2002.

Provision for Loan Losses. Provision for loan losses are charges to earnings to
bring the total allowance for loan losses to a level considered by management as
adequate to provide for estimated loan losses based on management's evaluation
of the collectibility of the loan portfolio, including the nature of the
portfolio, credit concentrations, trends in historical loss experience, specific
impaired loans and economic conditions. Management also considers the level of
problem assets, giving greater weight to the level of classified assets than to
the level of nonperforming assets because classified assets include not only
nonperforming assets but also performing assets that otherwise exhibit, in
management's judgment, potential credit weaknesses.

The provision for loan losses decreased from $63,000 for the three months ended
June 30, 2001 to $54,000 for the same period in 2002. Management deemed the
allowance for loan losses adequate at June 30, 2002.

Non-interest Income. Non-interest income increased from $2.1 million for the
three months ended June 30, 2001, to $2.7 million for the same period in 2002.
In the mortgage banking segment, net gain on sale of loans decreased from
$609,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2001, to $581,000 for the same
period in 2002. The lower gain in 2002 was a result of decreased production.
Loan servicing fees decreased slightly from $62,000 for the three months ended
June 30, 2001, to $55,000 for the same period in 2002. In the banking segment,
deposit fees and other operating incomes decreased from $1.0 million for the
three months ended June 30, 2001, to $921,000 for the same period in 2002. This
decline was a result of the implementation of a new checking account program
with a third party vendor. These fees began in the third quarter of 2001 and
extend through the third quarter of 2003 with a reduction of the fee percentages
in the third quarter of 2002. In the trust segment, trust fees increased from
$292,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2001, to $296,000 for the same
period in 2002. The acquisition of Miller & Loughry contributed commissions and
related income during the three months June 30, 2002.

Non-interest Expense. Non-interest expense increased from $4.1 million for the
three months ended June 30, 2001, to $4.9 million for the same period in 2002.
Salaries and employee benefits increased from $2.5 million for the three months
ended June 30, 2001 to $3.0 million for the same period in 2002. This increase
was a result of the purchase of Miller & Loughry, increased commissions, and
costs of medical insurance. The increase in occupancy expense was primarily a
result of the opening of the new operations building and increases in the cost
of utilities. The increases in other expenses were primarily due to increased
loan and deposit activity.

Income taxes. The provision for income taxes was $676,000 for the three months
ended June 30, 2002, compared to $717,000 for the same period in 2001.

compared to $1.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001. Return on

1.09% for the same period in 2002. Return on average equity also increased from
8.59% for the six months ended June 30, 2001, to 9.29% for the same period in
2002. Earnings per share increased from $0.30 per diluted share for the six
months ended June 30, 2001, to $0.34 per diluted share for the same period in
2002. This increase was primarily a result of higher net interest income, a
lower provision for loan losses and higher non-interest income. These increases
were partially offset by higher non-interest expenses.

for the six months ended June 30, 2001, to $8.1 million for the same period in

same period in 2002. The average yield decreased from 9.03% for the six months
ended June 30, 2001, to 7.35% for the same period in 2002, as a result of

mortgage backed securities, other investments, Federal Home Loan Bank and
Federal Reserve Bank stock, bank deposits and federal funds decreased from $2.0
million for the six months ended June 30, 2001, to $1.3 million for the same
period in 2002. Average investments increased from $72.4 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2001, to $78.5 million for the same period in 2002. The

same period in 2002. Average interest-bearing liabilities increased from $305.5
million for the six months ended June 30, 2001, to $309.5 million for the same
period in 2002.

Provision for Loan Losses. Provision for loan losses are charges to earnings to
bring the total allowance for loan losses to a level considered by management as
adequate to provide for estimated loan losses based on management's evaluation
of the collectibility of the loan portfolio, including the nature of the
portfolio, credit concentrations, trends in historical loss experience, specific
impaired loans and economic conditions. Management also considers the level of
problem assets, giving greater weight to the level of classified assets than to

loan and deposit activity.

Income taxes. The provision for income taxes was $1.5 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2002, compared to $1.4 million for the same period in

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company's primary sources of funds are customer deposits, proceeds from loan
principal and interest payments, sale of loans, maturing securities and Federal
Home Loan Bank (FHLB) of Cincinnati advances. While maturities and scheduled
amortization of loans are a predictable source of funds, deposit flows and
mortgage prepayments are influenced greatly by general interest rates, other
economic conditions, and competition. The Company and the Bank generally
maintain sufficient cash and short-term investments to meet short-term liquidity
needs. At June 30, 2002, cash and cash equivalents totaled $54.0 million or
12.88% of total assets, and investment securities available-for-sale totaled
$33.5 million. At June 30, 2002, the Bank also maintained, but did not draw
upon, a line of credit with the FHLB of Cincinnati in the amount of $10.0
million.

As of June 30, 2002, the Bank's regulatory capital was in excess of all
applicable regulatory requirements. At June 30, 2002, under the regulations of
the Federal Reserve Board, the Bank's actual leverage, Tier 1 risk-based, and
risked-based capital ratios were 9.01%, 12.20% and 13.43%, respectively,
compared to requirements of 3.0%, 4.0% and 8.0%, respectively.

At June 30, 2002, the Bank had loan commitments of approximately $35.3 million.
In addition, at June 30, 2002, the unused portion of lines of credit extended by
the Bank was approximately $9.6 million for consumer loans and $20.8 million for
commercial loans. Standby letters of credit and financial guarantees are
conditional commitments issued by the Bank to guarantee the performance of a
customer to a third party. Those guarantees are primarily issued to support
public and private borrowing arrangements, including commercial paper, bond
financing, and similar transactions. Most guarantees extend from one to two
years. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the
same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. At June 30,
2002, the Bank had $6.4 million of letters of credit outstanding.

11


Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices

The consolidated financial statements of the Company and notes thereto,
presented elsewhere herein, have been prepared in accordance with U.S.GAAP,
which require the measurement of financial condition and operating results in
terms of historical dollars without considering the change in relative
purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. The impact of inflation is
reflected in the increased cost of the Company's operations. Unlike most
industrial companies, nearly all the assets and liabilities of the Company are
financial. As a result, interest rates have a greater impact on the Company's
performance than do the effects of general levels of inflation. Interest rates
do not necessarily move in the same direction or to the same extent as the
prices of goods and services.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

As a financial institution, the Company's primary component of market risk is
interest rate risk. Ultimately, fluctuations in interest rates will impact
liquidity, the level of income and expense recorded on most of the Company's
assets and liabilities, and the market value of interest-earning assets and
interest-bearing liabilities. The company is not subject to foreign exchange or
commodity price risk. The Company does not own any trading assets.

Interest rate risk is managed by management in accordance with policies approved
by the Bank's Board of Directors. Management formulates strategies based on
appropriate levels of interest rate risk. In determining the appropriate level
of interest rate risk, management considers the impact on earnings and capital
of the current outlook on interest rates, potential changes in interest rates,
regional economy, liquidity, business strategies and other factors. Management
meets regularly to review, among other things, the sensitivity of assets and
liabilities to interest rate changes, the book and market value of assets and
liabilities, unrealized gains and losses, purchase and sales activities,
commitments to originate loans and the maturities of investments. Management
uses an analysis of relationships between interest-earning assets and
interest-bearing liabilities to manage interest rate risk.

12


The following table presents the Company's repricing gap at June 30, 2002. The
table indicates that at June 30, 2002 the Company was liability sensitive up to
six months and had a negative cumulative GAP for the time periods up to and
including one to three year time horizon This would indicate a decline in
earnings in a rising rate environment. However, management does not consider
NOW accounts and savings accounts rate sensitive and if those amounts are
excluded from the six-month time frame, the Company would be slightly liability
sensitive.
