AUBURN NATIONAL BANCORPORATION, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2005
Note 1- General
The consolidated financial statements in this report have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and have not been audited. Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods have been made. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that Auburn National Bancorporation, Inc. (the Company) may achieve for future interim periods or the entire year. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in the Companys annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004.
Note 2- Comprehensive Income
The primary component of the differences between net income and comprehensive income for the Company is unrealized gains/losses on available for sale securities and derivatives. Total comprehensive income for the three months ended June 30, 2005 was $2,825,000 compared to comprehensive loss of $6,207,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2004. Total comprehensive income for the six months ended June 30, 2005 was $2,010,000 compared to comprehensive loss of $2,182,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2004.
Note 3 Pending Accounting Pronouncements
In March 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Boards (FASB) Emerging Issues Task Force reached a consensus on EITF Issue No. 03-1, The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments. EITF 03-1 provides guidance for determining when an investment is considered impaired, whether impairment is other-than-temporary, and measurement of an impairment loss. An investment is considered impaired if the fair value of the investment is less than its cost. Generally, an impairment is considered other-than-temporary unless: (i) the investor has the ability and intent to hold an investment for a reasonable period of time sufficient for an anticipated recovery of fair value up to (or beyond) the cost of the investment; and (ii) evidence indicating that the cost of the investment is recoverable within a reasonable period of time outweighs evidence to the contrary. If impairment is determined to be other-than-temporary, then an impairment loss should be recognized equal to the difference between the investments cost and its fair value. Certain disclosure requirements of EITF 03-1 were adopted in 2003 and the Company began presenting the new disclosure requirements in its consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2003. The recognition and measurement provisions were initially effective for other-than-temporary impairment evaluations in reporting periods beginning after June 15, 2004. However, in September 2004, the effective date of these provisions was delayed until the finalization of a FASB Staff Position (FSP) to provide additional implementation guidance. Its adoption is not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated balance sheets or statement of earnings for the Company.
In December 2004, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment (SFAS No. 123R), which revised SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. This statement supercedes APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (APB 25). The revised statement addresses the accounting for share-based payment transactions with employees and other third parties, eliminates the ability to account for share-based compensation transactions using APB 25 and requires that the compensation costs relating to such transactions be recognized in the consolidated statement of income. The revised statement is effective as of the first annual period beginning after June 15, 2005. Its adoption is not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated balance sheets or statement of earnings for the Company.
On March 25, 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 (SAB 107). SAB 107 provides guidance regarding the valuation of share-based payment arrangements, the classification of compensation expense, financial measures which do not follow accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP), first-time adoption of SFAS No. 123R in an interim period, capitalization of compensation cost related to share-based payment arrangements, the accounting for income tax effects of share-based payment arrangements upon adoption of SFAS No. 123R, the modification of employee share options prior to adoption of SFAS No. 123R and disclosures in Managements Discussion and Analysis subsequent to adoption to SFAS No. 123R. This guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated balance sheets or statement of earnings for the Company.

Note 4 Loans
Throughout the periods of 2002-2005, the Company has reported its interest income on loans based on the effective interest method. In its annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004, it was incorrectly stated in the footnotes to the financial statements that the Company used the simple interest method of recording interest income on loans. The Company actually used and continues to use the effective interest method of reporting interest income, which is the appropriate method under GAAP.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis is designed to provide a better understanding of various factors related to the results of operations and financial condition of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, AuburnBank (the Bank).

Forward-looking statements include statements with respect to our beliefs, plans, objectives, goals, expectations, anticipations, assumptions, estimates, intentions, and future performance, and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, which may be beyond our control, and which may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.

| credit risks; |
| the failure of assumptions underlying the establishment of allowance for possible loan losses and other estimates; |
| the risks of mergers and acquisitions, including, without limitation, the related costs and time of integrating operations as part of these transactions and the failure to achieve expected gains, revenue growth and/or expense savings from such transactions; |
| changes in laws and regulations, including tax, banking and securities laws and regulations; |
| changes in accounting policies, rules and practices; |
| changes in technology or products may be more difficult or costly, or less effective than anticipated; |

| other factors and information described in any of our subsequent reports that we make with the SEC under the Exchange Act. |
All written or oral forward-looking statements that are made by or attributable to us are expressly qualified in their entirety by this cautionary notice.

Net income increased $80,000 (2.6%) to $3,114,000 for the six month period ended June 30, 2005 compared to $3,034,000 for the same period of 2004. Basic and diluted net earnings per share increased $0.03 (3.8%) to $0.81 during the six months ended June 30, 2005 from $0.78 for the six months ended June 30, 2004. The increase in the Companys net income during the six month period ended June 30, 2005 compared to the same period of 2004, was primarily due to an increase in net interest income and non interest income. This was partially offset by an increase in noninterest expense. The net yield on total interest-earning assets increased to 2.80% for the six months ended June 30, 2005 from 2.71% for the six months ended June 30, 2004. The increase in the net yield on interest-earning assets is due to a shift to higher yielding interest-earning assets and a decrease in the average volume of interest-bearing deposits. See the CONSOLIDATED AVERAGE BALANCES, INTEREST INCOME/EXPENSE AND YIELDS/RATES table.
Total assets of $602,638,000 at June 30, 2005 represented an increase of $11,477,000 (1.9%) over total assets of $591,161,000, at December 31, 2004. This increase resulted primarily from an increase of $20,265,000 in loans. The primary sources of loans were an increase in total deposits of $17,580,000, a decrease in cash and cash equivalents of $5,213,000 and a decrease in investment securities available for sale of $3,980,000 during the first six months of 2005.
Critical Accounting Policies
The accounting and financial policies of the Company conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and to general practices within the banking industry. The allowance for loan losses is an accounting policy applied by the Company which is deemed critical. Critical accounting policies are defined as policies which are important to the portrayal of the Companys financial condition and results of operations, and that require managements most difficult, subjective or complex judgements. These estimates and judgments involve significant uncertainties, and are susceptible to change. If different conditions exist or occur, and depending upon the magnitude of the changes, then our actual financial condition and financial results could differ significantly. See ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES AND RISK ELEMENTS.
For a more detailed discussion on these critical accounting policies, see CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES on page 18 of the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004.
Financial Condition
Investment Securities and Federal Funds Sold
Investment securities held to maturity were $728,000 and $809,000 at June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively. This decrease of $81,000 (10.0%) was primarily the result of scheduled paydowns and calls of principal amounts. These funds were reinvested in investment securities available for sale.

Investment securities available for sale decreased $3,980,000 (1.4%) to $277,410,000 at June 30, 2005 from $281,390,000 at December 31, 2004. This decrease is a result of $19,751,000 in scheduled paydowns, maturities and issuer calls of principal amounts. In addition, $10,976,000 of U.S. agency securities, $17,975,000 of mortgage backed securities and $2,949,000 of state and political subdivision securities were sold in the first six months of 2005. This was offset by purchases of $12,992,000 in U.S. agency securities, $29,806,000 in mortgage backed securities, $6,275,000 in state and political subdivision securities and $1,012,000 in corporate securities.
Federal funds sold decreased to $1,613,000 at June 30, 2005 from $17,394,000 at December 31, 2004. This reflects normal activity in the Banks funds management efforts.
Loans
Total loans of $271,394,000 at June 30, 2005 reflected an increase of $20,265,000 (8.1%) compared to the total loans of $251,129,000, at December 31, 2004. The Bank primarily experienced growth in commercial and residential real estate mortgage loans and in residential real estate construction loans during the six months ended June 30, 2005. Three loan categories represented the majority of the loan portfolio with commercial real estate mortgage loans consisting of 52.38%, residential real estate mortgage loans consisting of 20.29% and commercial, financial and agricultural loans consisting of 17.64%, of the Banks total loans at June 30, 2005. The net yield on loans was 6.44% for the six months ended June 30, 2005 compared to 5.98% for the six months ended June 30, 2004 primarily due to an increase in interest rates. See the CONSOLIDATED AVERAGE BALANCES, INTEREST INCOME/EXPENSE AND YIELDS/RATES table.
Allowance for Loan Losses and Risk Elements
The allowance for loan losses reflects managements assessment and estimates of the risks associated with extending credit and its evaluation of the quality of the loan portfolio. Management reviews the components of the loan portfolio in order to estimate the appropriate provision required to maintain the allowance at a level believed adequate in relation to losses inherent in the loan portfolio. In assessing the allowance, management reviews the size, quality and risk of loans in the portfolio. Management also considers such factors as the Banks loan loss experience, the amount of past due and nonperforming loans, specific known risks, the status, amounts, and values of nonperforming assets (including loans), underlying collateral values securing loans, current and anticipated economic conditions, and other factors, including developments anticipated by management with respect to various credits which management believes affects the allowance for loan losses.
The Companys policy generally is to place a loan on nonaccrual status when it is contractually past due 90 days or more in payment of principal or interest. A loan may be placed on nonaccrual status at an earlier date when concerns exist as to the ultimate collectability of principal or interest. At the time a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, interest previously accrued but not collected is reversed and charged against current earnings. Loans that are contractually past due 90 days or more, but are well secured and in the process of collection, are generally not placed on nonaccrual status.
The table below summarizes the changes in the allowance for loan losses for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004 and the year ended December 31, 2004.

The allowance for loan losses was $3,768,000 at June 30, 2005 compared to $3,456,000 at December 31, 2004. Management believes that the current level of allowance for loan losses (1.39% of total outstanding loans at June 30, 2005) is adequate to absorb anticipated losses identified in the portfolio at June 30, 2005. No assurance can be given, however, that adverse economic circumstances or other events, including additional loan review or examination findings or changes in borrowers financial conditions, will not result in increased losses in the Banks loan portfolio or in additional provision to the allowance for loan losses.
During the first six months of 2005, the Bank made $300,000 in provisions to the allowance for loan losses based on managements assessment of the credit quality of the loan portfolio. For the six months ended June 30, 2005, the Bank had charge-offs of $201,000 and recoveries of $213,000.
Nonperforming assets, comprised of nonaccrual loans, other nonperforming assets, and accruing loans 90 days or more past due, were $640,000 at June 30, 2005, a decrease of 21.6% from the $816,000 of non-performing assets at December 31, 2004. This decrease is mainly due to a decrease in nonaccrual loans and other real estate owned. If nonaccrual loans had performed in accordance with their original contractual terms, interest income would have increased by approximately $23,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2005.

Potential problem loans consist of those loans where management has serious doubt as to the borrowers ability to comply with the contractual loan repayment terms. At June 30, 2005, 67 loans totaling $5,689,000, or 2.1% of total loans outstanding, net of unearned income, were considered potential problem loans compared to 69 loans totaling $3,260,000, or 1.3% of total loans outstanding, net of unearned income, at December 31, 2004. At June 30, 2005, the amount of impaired loans was $357,000, which included two loans to two borrowers with a total valuation allowance of approximately $43,000. In comparison, at December 31, 2004, the Company had approximately $677,000 of impaired loans, which included three loans to three borrowers with a total valuation allowance of approximately $177,000.
Deposits
Total deposits increased $17,580,000 (4.1%) to $446,919,000 at June 30, 2005, compared to $429,339,000 at December 31, 2004. Noninterest-bearing deposits increased $5,612,000 (8.6%) during the first six months of 2005, while total interest-bearing deposits increased $11,968,000 (3.3%) to $375,943,000 at June 30, 2005 from $363,975,000 at December 31, 2004. The increase in noninterest-bearing deposits is due primarily to an increase in regular demand deposit accounts. During the first six months of 2005, the Bank primarily experienced an increase in certificates of deposit over $100,000 of $5,477,000 (5.8%), money market accounts of $3,832,000 (4.0%) and NOW accounts of $2,566,000 (4.0%). The Company considers the shifts in the deposit mix to be within the normal course of business and in line with the Banks funding strategy. The average rate paid on interest-bearing deposits was 2.54% for the six months ended June 30, 2005 compared to 2.17% for the same period of 2004 due to an increase in interest rates. See the CONSOLIDATED AVERAGE BALANCES, INTEREST INCOME/EXPENSE AND YIELDS/RATES table.

Capital Resources and Liquidity
The Companys consolidated stockholders equity was $45,202,000 at June 30, 2005, compared to $44,504,000 at December 31, 2004. This represents an increase of $698,000 (1.6%) during the first six months of 2005 primarily due to net earnings. Net earnings for the first six months of 2005 were $3,114,000 compared to $3,034,000 for the same period of 2004. In addition, the Companys accumulated other comprehensive loss was $1,465,000 at June 30, 2005 compared to an accumulated other comprehensive loss of $361,000 at December 31, 2004. The increase in the accumulated other comprehensive loss is due to a decrease in the fair value of investment securities available for sale. During the first six months of 2005, cash dividends of $1,114,000 or $0.29 per share, were declared on Common Stock.

The Companys Tier I leverage ratio was 9.04%, Tier I risk-based capital ratio was 15.75% and Total risk-based capital ratio was 16.85% at June 30, 2005. These ratios exceed the minimum regulatory capital percentages of 4.0% for Tier I leverage ratio, 4.0% for Tier I risk-based capital ratio and 8.0% for Total risk-based capital ratio. Based on current regulatory standards, the Company believes it is well capitalized.
The primary source of liquidity during the first six months of 2005 was deposit growth. The Company used these funds primarily to fund loan growth. Under the advance program with Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta (FHLB-Atlanta), the Bank had outstanding advances totaling approximately $98,214,000 at June 30, 2005, under total FHLB-Atlanta facilities of 30% of the Banks total assets or $180,275,000 as of June 30, 2005.
Net cash provided by operating activities of $2,369,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2005 consisted primarily of net earnings. Net cash used in investing activities of $18,787,000 principally resulted from investment securities purchases of $50,085,000 and an increase in loans of $20,253,000. This is offset by proceeds from maturities, calls and paydowns of investment securities available for sale and held to maturity of $19,831,000 and proceeds from sales of investment securities available for sale of $31,900,000. The $11,205,000 in net cash provided by financing activities resulted primarily from an increase of $5,612,000 in interest-bearing deposits and an increase of $11,968,000 in non-interest bearing deposits. In addition, securities sold under agreements to repurchase decreased by $5,054,000 and the Company paid cash dividends of $1,114,000.
Note Payable to Trust
The Company wholly owns a Delaware statutory trust, Auburn National Bancorporation Capital Trust I. This unconsolidated subsidiary issued approximately $7 million in trust preferred securities, guaranteed by the Company on a subordinated basis. The Company obtained these proceeds through a note payable to the trust (junior subordinated debentures). As of June 30, 2005, $7,217,000 of the note payable to trust was classified as Tier 1 Capital for regulatory purposes. For regulatory purposes, the trust preferred securities represent a minority investment in a consolidated subsidiary, which is currently included in Tier 1 Capital so long as it does not exceed 25% of total Tier 1 capital. According to FASB Interpretation No.46 (FIN 46) and Revised Amendment to FIN 46 (FIN 46R), however, the trust subsidiary must be deconsolidated for accounting purposes. As a result of this accounting pronouncement, the Federal Reserve Board on March 1, 2005 announced changes to its capital adequacy rules, including the capital treatment of trust preferred securities. The Federal Reserves new rules, which took effect in early April 2005, permit the Company to continue to treat its outstanding trust preferred securities as Tier 1 Capital for the first 25 years of the 30 year term of the related junior subordinated notes. During the last five years preceding maturity, the amount included as capital will decline 20% per year. We believe that the Federal Reserves final rule with respect to the capital treatment of trust preferred securities will not adversely affect our regulatory capital and that the Company and the Banks capital ratios will remain at an adequate level to allow the Company and the Bank to continue to be well capitalized under applicable banking regulations.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company 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. Such instruments involve elements of credit risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements.
12
Table of Contents
The Companys exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to these financial instruments is represented by the contractual amount of these instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments.
The financial instruments with contract amounts which represent credit risk as of June 30, 2005 are as follows:
Commitments to extend credit |
$ | 53,704,000 | |
Standby letters of credit |
5,006,000 |
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.
Standby letters of credit are commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Those guarantees are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements. Most guarantees expire within one year. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. The Company holds various assets as collateral supporting those commitments for which collateral is deemed necessary.
Interest Rate Sensitivity Management
At June 30, 2005, interest sensitive assets that reprice or mature within the next 12 months were $223,447,000 compared to interest sensitive liabilities that reprice or mature within the same time frame totaling $252,549,000. The cumulative GAP position (the difference between interest sensitive assets and interest sensitive liabilities) of a negative $29,102,000 resulted in a GAP ratio (calculated as interest sensitive assets divided by interest sensitive liabilities) of 0.88%. This compares to a twelve month cumulative GAP position at December 31, 2004, of a negative $75,281,000 and a GAP ratio of 0.74%. A negative GAP position indicates that the Company has more interest-bearing liabilities than interest-earning assets that reprice within the GAP period, and that net interest income may be adversely affected in a rising rate environment as rates earned on interest-earning assets rise more slowly than rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities. A positive GAP position indicates that the Company has more interest-earning assets than interest-bearing liabilities that reprice within the GAP period. The Banks Asset/Liability Management Committee (ALCO) is charged with the responsibility of managing, to the degree prudently possible, the Companys exposure to interest rate risk, while attempting to provide earnings enhancement opportunities. The Banks ALCO Committee realizes that GAP is limited in scope since it does not capture all the options or repricing opportunities in the balance sheet. Therefore, the ALCO Committee places its emphasis on Income at Risk and Economic Value of Equity measurements. Based on ALCOs alternative interest rate scenarios used by the Company in modeling for asset/liability planning purposes, the GAP position at June 30, 2005 and various assumptions and estimates, the Companys asset/liability model predicts that the changes in the Companys net interest income would be less than 10.0% when rates are gradually increased or decreased 200 basis points over 12 months. Economic Value of Equity would not change more than the target 25% if rates were shocked up and down 2%. Such estimates and predictions are forecasts which may or may not be realized. From June 30, 2004 through August 9, 2005, the Federal Reserve has made 10 increases of 25 basis points each in the discount rate and has indicated that further interest rate increases may be expected. See ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

Net Income
Net income increased $36,000 (2.4%) to $1,535,000 for the three month period ended June 30, 2005, compared to $1,499,000 for the same period of 2004. Basic and diluted net earnings per share were $0.40 and $0.39 for the second quarters of 2005 and 2004, respectively. Net income increased $80,000 (2.6%) to $3,114,000 for the six month period ended June 30, 2005 compared to $3,034,000 for the same period of 2004. During the six month period ended June 30, 2005 compared to the same period of 2004, the Company experienced an increase in net interest income and noninterest income. This was offset by an increase in noninterest expense.

Table of Contents
Net Interest Income
Net interest income was $3,632,000 for the second quarter of 2005, a decrease of $15,000 (0.4%) from $3,647,000 for the same period of 2004. Net interest income increased $34,000 (0.5%) to $7,313,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2005, compared to $7,279,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2004. Throughout the periods of 2002-2005, the Company has reported its interest income on loans based on the effective interest method. In its annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004, it was incorrectly stated in the footnotes to the financial statements that the Company used the simple interest method of recording interest income on loans. The Company actually used and continues to use the effective interest method of reporting interest income, which is the appropriate method under GAAP. The increase in net interest income for the six month period ending June 30, 2005 resulted primarily from an increase in net yield on interest-earning assets. Although the average volume of interest-earning assets remained fairly stable, the Company invested in higher yielding loans from lower yielding investments securities compared to June 30, 2004. Also, the average volume of interest-bearing deposits at June 30, 2005 decreased from the same period of 2004. Through the second quarter of 2005, the Companys GAP position was more liability sensitive to changes in interest rates. The Company continues to regularly review and manage its asset/liability position in an effort to manage the negative effects of changing rates. See the CONSOLIDATED AVERAGE BALANCES, INTEREST INCOME/EXPENSE AND YIELDS/RATES table.
Interest and Dividend Income
Interest income is a function of the volume of interest earning assets and their related yields. Interest and dividend income was $7,330,000 and $6,690,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. This represents an increase of $640,000 (9.6%) for the second quarter of 2005 compared to 2004. For the six months ended June 30, 2005, interest and dividend income was $14,369,000, an increase of $909,000 (6.8%) compared to $13,460,000 for the same period of 2004. This change for the first six months of 2005 resulted as the Companys yield on interest-earning assets increased 43 basis points while the average volume of interest-earning assets outstanding decreased slightly by $3,250,000 (0.6%) over the same period of 2004. See the CONSOLIDATED AVERAGE BALANCES, INTEREST INCOME/EXPENSE AND YIELDS/RATES table.
Loans are the main component of the Banks earning assets. Interest and fees on loans were $4,422,000 and $3,838,000 for the second quarters of 2005 and 2004, respectively. This reflects an increase of $584,000 (15.2%) during the three months ended June 30, 2005 over the same period of 2004. For the six month period ended June 30, 2005, interest and fees on loans increased $869,000 (11.3%) to $8,564,000 from $7,695,000 for the same period of 2004. The average volume of loans increased $9,566,000 (3.7%) for the six months ended June 30, 2005 compared to the same period for 2004, while the Companys yield on loans also increased by 46 basis points resulting in the increase in interest and fees on loans for the six months ended June 30, 2005 compared to the same period for 2004.
For the three month period ended June 30, 2005, interest income on investment securities decreased $2,000 (0.1%) to $2,833,000 from $2,835,000 for the same period of 2004. Interest income on investment securities for the six month period ended June 30, 2005, decreased $48,000 (0.8%) to $5,673,000 from $5,721,000 for the same period of 2004. The Companys average volume of investment securities decreased by $13,164,000 (4.5%) for the first six months of 2005, compared to the same period of 2004, while the net yield on these average balances increased by 28 basis points. See the CONSOLIDATED AVERAGE BALANCES, INTEREST INCOME/EXPENSE AND YIELDS/RATES table.
Interest Expense
Total interest expense increased $654,000 (21.5%) to $3,697,000 for the second quarter of 2005 compared to $3,043,000 for the same period of 2004. Total interest expense increased $874,000 (14.1%) to $7,055,000 from $6,181,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. This change was due to an increase of 42 basis points in the rates paid on those liabilities during the first six months of 2005 compared to the same period of 2004 offset by a 1.6% decrease in the Companys average interest-bearing liabilities. See the CONSOLIDATED AVERAGE BALANCES, INTEREST INCOME/EXPENSE AND YIELDS/RATES table.
Interest on deposits, the primary component of total interest expense, increased $487,000 (24.2%) to $2,497,000 for the second quarter of 2005 compared to $2,010,000 for the same period of 2004. Interest on deposits were $4,676,000 and $4,115,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. The increase for the six month period ended June 30, 2005 is due to a 37 basis point increase in the rate paid on interest-bearing deposits partially offset by a 2.8% decrease in the average volume.

Table of Contents
Interest expense on other borrowings, was $1,184,000 and $1,027,000 for the second quarters of 2005 and 2004, respectively. This represents an increase of $157,000 or 15.3%. For the six months ended June 30, 2005, interest expense on borrowed funds increased $298,000 (14.5%) to $2,347,000 from $2,049,000 for the same period of 2004. This increase for the six month period ended June 30, 2005 is mainly due to a 43 basis point increase in the rate paid on other borrowed funds.
Provision for Loan Losses
The provision for loan losses is based on managements assessments and estimates of the risks associated with extending credit and its evaluation of the quality of the loan portfolio. The provision for loan losses was $300,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004. Despite loan growth, the provision for loan losses has remained consistent for the six month period ended June 30, 2005 compared to the same period of 2004 due to improved performance in the loan portfolio compared to the same period last year. See ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSS AND RISK ELEMENTS.
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income increased $183,000 (12.6%) to $1,635,000 for the second quarter of 2005 from $1,452,000 for the same period of 2004. Noninterest income was $3,372,000 and $3,036,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. This increase is mainly due to an increase in other noninterest income.
Other noninterest income increased $189,000 (17.8%) to $1,252,000 for the second quarter of 2005 from $1,063,000 for the same period of 2004. Other noninterest income was $2,618,000 and $2,288,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. This represents an increase of $330,000 (14.4%) for the six month period ended June 30, 2005 compared to the same period of 2004. This increase was mainly due to an increase in MasterCard/VISA discounts and fees for the six months ended June 30, 2005 resulting from an increase in transaction volume and fees in addition to gains on the sale of mortgage loans over amounts reported in the six months ended June 30, 2004.
Noninterest Expense
Total noninterest expense was $3,061,000 and $2,896,000 for the second quarters of 2005 and 2004, respectively, representing an increase of $165,000 or 5.7%. For the six months ended June 30, 2005, total noninterest expense increased $382,000 (6.5%) to $6,271,000 from $5,889,000 for the same period of 2004. This increase was mainly due to an increase in salaries and employee benefits and other noninterest expense.
For the second quarter of 2005, salaries and employee benefits increased $35,000 (2.8%) to $1,307,000 from $1,272,000 for the second quarter of 2004. For the six months ended June 30, 2005, salaries and employee benefits increased $136,000 (5.3%) to $2,723,000 from $2,587,000 for the same period of 2004. This increase was mainly due to new hires, merit raises and cost of benefits associated with these increases.
For the second quarter of 2005, other noninterest expense increased $168,000 (12.8%) to $1,478,000 from $1,310,000 for the second quarter of 2004. Other noninterest expense was $2,991,000 and $2,682,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. This increase is mainly due increases in the MasterCard/VISA processing fees resulting from increases in transaction volume and fees.
Income Taxes
Income tax expense was $522,000 and $553,000 for the second quarters of 2005 and 2004, respectively representing a decrease of $31,000 (5.6%). For the six months ended June 30, 2005, income tax expense decreased $91,000 (8.3%) to $1,001,000 from $1,092,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2004. These levels represent an effective tax rate on pre-tax earnings of 24.3% and 26.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. The decrease in effective tax rate is mainly due to additional purchases of tax-exempt securities.

Effects of Inflation and Changing Prices
Virtually all of the assets and liabilities of the Company are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates have a more significant effect on the Companys performance than the effects of general levels of inflation. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or with the same magnitude as the price of goods and services because such prices are affected by inflation. In the current interest rate environment, liquidity and the maturity structure of the Companys assets and liabilities are critical to the maintenance of desired performance levels.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The Companys interest rate risk has become more liability-sensitive during the second quarter of 2005. Also, the Companys long term market risk has remained relatively constant during the second quarter of 2005. The Company models economic value of equity as a measure of market risk. As of December 2004, economic value of equity would increase 7.66% if rates decrease 200 basis points and decrease 24.48% if rates increase 200 basis points. As of June 2005, if rates decrease 200 basis points, economic value of equity would increase 2.50% and, if rates increase 200 basis points, economic value of equity would decrease 23.58%.
The Company became more liability-sensitive for a 12 month forecast. The Companys projected assets for the next 12 months have decreased in volatility to a greater extent than projected liabilities. This is primarily due to investment security prepayments slowing as interest rates rise and reduced volume in federal funds sold. Federal fund sold, while variable, also provide the lowest investment security yields The change in volatility of loans in a rising rate scenario was largely offset by improved volatility of liabilities. The Company measures its exposure to interest risk by modeling a 200 (+ and -) basis point ramp in interest rates. Given these conditions, the Companys modeling projects that net interest income could decrease by 2.43% given a ramp up in interest rates of 200 basis points. For a ramp down in interest rates of 200 basis points, the modeling projects the Companys net interest income could decrease by 0.53%. In December, the exposure in a ramp down scenario was (7.83%) and the ramp up exposure was 0.62%. The Company anticipates that interest rates will continue to rise and is preparing accordingly. The Company continues to work toward becoming asset-sensitive. As the Company does not consider this change in market sensitivity to be significant, the market rate table, as shown in the Companys Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004, has not been updated in this filing.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
As of June 30, 2005, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of the Companys management, including the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Director of Financial Operations (DFO), of the effectiveness of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, the Companys management, including the CEO and DFO, concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures were effective, in all material respects, to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the Companys reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and regulations, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Companys management, including the CEO and DFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.
During the period covered by this report, there has not been any change in the Companys internal controls over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal controls over financial reporting.
