NOTE:
Caution
Concerning Forward-Looking Statements
This
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains "forward-looking statements" within
the
meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These
forward-looking statements include, among others, statements about our beliefs,
plans, objectives, goals, expectations, estimates and intentions that are
subject to significant risks and uncertainties and are subject to change
based
on various factors, many of which are beyond our control. The words "may,"
"could," "should," "would," "believe," "anticipate," "estimate," "expect,"
"intend," "plan," "target," "goal," and similar expressions are intended
to
identify forward-looking statements.
All
forward-looking statements, by their nature, are subject to risks and
uncertainties. Our actual future results may differ materially from those
set
forth in our forward-looking statements.
Our
ability to achieve our financial objectives could be adversely affected by
the
factors discussed in detail in Part I, Item 2., “Management’s Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and Part II, Item 1A.
“Risk Factors” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the following sections of

Factors” in Part I, Item 1A., as updated in our subsequent quarterly reports

NOTE
7 - STOCK-BASED
COMPENSATION
In
accordance with the Company’s adoption of SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation" ("SFAS 123"), in the first quarter of 2003, the
cost
related to stock-based associate compensation included in net income has
been
accounted for under the fair value method in all reported periods.
On
January 1, 2006, the Company adopted SFAS 123R. The Company continues to
include
the cost of its share-based compensation plans in net income under the fair
value method.
As
of
September 30, 2006, the Company had three stock-based compensation plans,
consisting of the 2005 Associate Incentive Plan ("AIP"), the 2005 Associate
Stock Purchase Plan ("ASPP"), and the 2005 Director Stock Purchase Plan
("DSPP"). Total compensation expense associated with these plans for the
nine
months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, was approximately $1.5 million
and
$1.1 million, respectively.
AIP.
The
Company's AIP allows the Company's Board of Directors to award key associates
various forms of equity-based incentive compensation. Under the AIP, the
Company
has adopted the Stock-Based Incentive Plan (the "Incentive Plan"), effective
January 1, 2006, which is a performance-based equity bonus plan for selected
members of management, including all executive officers. Under the Incentive
Plan, all participants are eligible to earn an equity award, consisting of
performance shares, in each year of the five-year period ending December
31,
2010. Annual awards are tied to the annual earnings progression necessary
to
achieve the Project 2010 goal of $50.0 million in annual net income. The
grant-date fair value of an annual compensation award is approximately $1.5
million. A total of 43,437 shares are eligible for issuance
annually.
At
the
end of each calendar year, the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of
Directos will confirm whether the performance goals have been met prior to
the
payout of any awards. Any performance shares earned under the Incentive Plan
will be issued in the calendar quarter following the calendar year in which
the
shares were earned.
In
accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123R, the Company recognized expense
of
approximately $1.1 million for the first nine months of 2006 related to the
Incentive Plan. Under a substantially similar predecessor plan, the Company
recognized expense of $581,000 for the first nine months of 2005. A total
of
875,000 shares of common stock have been reserved for issuance under the
AIP. To
date, the Company has issued 28,093 shares of common stock.
Executive
Stock Option Agreement. In
2006,
under the provisions of the AIP, the Company's Board of Directors approved
a
stock option agreement for a key executive officer (William G. Smith, Jr.
-
Chairman, President and CEO, CCBG). Similar stock option agreements were
approved in 2003-2005. These agreements grant a non-qualified stock option
award
upon achieving certain annual earnings per share conditions set by the Board,
subject to certain vesting requirements. The options granted under the
agreements have a term of ten years and vest at a rate of one-third on each
of
the first, second, and third anniversaries of the date of grant. Under the
2004
and 2003 agreements, 37,246 and 23,138 options, respectively, were issued,
none
of which have been exercised. The fair value of a 2004 option was $13.42,
and
the fair value of a 2003 option was $11.64. The exercise prices for the 2004
and
2003 options are $32.69 and $32.96, respectively. Under the 2005 agreement,
the
earnings per share conditions were not met; therefore, no economic value
was
earned by the executive. In accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123R and
SFAS
123, the Company recognized expense of approximately $146,000 and $145,000
for
the first nine months of 2006 and 2005, respectively, related to the
aforementioned agreements.

As
of
September 30, 2006, there was $173,000 of total unrecognized compensation
cost
related to the nonvested option shares granted under the agreements. That
cost
is expected to be recognized over a remaining weighted-average period of
10
months.
DSPP.
The
Company's DSPP allows the directors to purchase the Company's common stock
at a
price equal to 90% of the closing price on the date of purchase. Stock purchases
under the DSPP are limited to the amount of the directors' annual retainer
and
meeting fees. The DSPP has 93,750 shares reserved for issuance. A total of
16,733 shares have been issued since the inception of the DSPP. For the first
nine months of 2006, the Company issued 10,144 shares under the DSPP and
recognized $31,000 in expense related to this plan. For the first nine months
of
2005, the Company issued 5,418 shares and recognized $21,000 in expense related
to the DSPP.
ASPP.
Under
the
Company's ASPP, substantially all associates may purchase the Company's common
stock through payroll deductions at a price equal to 90% of the lower of
the
fair market value at the beginning or end of each six-month offering period.
Stock purchases under the ASPP are limited to 10% of an associate's eligible
compensation, up to a maximum of $25,000 (fair market value on each enrollment
date) in any plan year. Shares are issued at the beginning of the quarter
following each six-month offering period. The ASPP has 593,750 shares of
common
stock reserved for issuance. A total of 36,281 shares have been issued since
inception of the ASPP. For the first nine months of 2006, the Company issued
9,343 shares under the ASPP and recognized $67,000 in expense related to
this
plan. For the first nine months of 2005, the Company issued 8,928 shares
and
recognized $66,000 in expense related to the ASPP.
Based
on
the Black-Scholes option pricing model, the weighted average estimated fair
value of the purchase rights granted under the ASPP Plan was $6.22 for the
first
nine months of 2006. For the first nine months of 2005, the weighted average
fair value of the purchase rights granted was $6.48. In calculating
compensation, the fair value of each stock purchase right was estimated on
the
date of grant using the following weighted average assumptions:

NOTE
9 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Lending
Commitments.
The
Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risks
in the
normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These
financial instruments consist of commitments to extend credit and standby
letters of credit.
The
Company’s maximum exposure to credit loss under standby letters of credit and
commitments to extend credit is represented by the contractual amount of
those
instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in establishing
commitments and issuing letters of credit as it does for on-balance sheet
instruments. As of September 30, 2006, the amounts associated with the Company’s
off-balance sheet obligations were as follows:

Standby
Letters of Credit

|
(1) Commitments
include unfunded loans, revolving lines of credit, and other unused
commitments.
Commitments
to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer so 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.
Contingencies.
The
Company is a party to lawsuits and claims arising out of the normal course
of
business. In management's opinion, there are no known pending claims or
litigation, the outcome of which would, individually or in the aggregate,
have a
material effect on the consolidated results of operations, financial position,
or cash flows of the Company.
NOTE
10 - COMPREHENSIVE INCOME
SFAS
No.
130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," requires that certain transactions
and
other economic events that bypass the income statement be displayed as other
comprehensive income (loss). Comprehensive income totaled $9.6 million and
$24.7
million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30,
2006,
and $8.4 million and $22.3 million, respectively, for the comparable periods
in
2005. The Company’s comprehensive income consists of net income and changes in
unrealized gains (losses) on securities available-for-sale, net of income
taxes.
Changes in unrealized gains (losses), net of taxes, on securities totaled
$963,000 and $295,000, respectively, for the three and nine months ended
September, 2006, and $(195,000) and $(540,000), respectively, for the three
and
nine months ended September 30, 2005. Reclassification adjustments consist
only
of realized gains and losses on sales of investment securities and were not
material for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005.

MANAGEMENT'S
DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
|
Management’s
discussion and analysis ("MD&A") provides supplemental information, which
sets forth the major factors that have affected our financial condition and
results of operations and should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated
Financial Statements and related notes. The MD&A is divided into subsections
entitled "Business Overview," "Financial Overview," "Results of Operations,"
"Financial Condition," "Liquidity and Capital Resources," "Off-Balance Sheet
Arrangements," and "Accounting Policies." Information therein should facilitate
a better understanding of the major factors and trends that affect our earnings
performance and financial condition, and how our performance during 2006
compares with prior years. Throughout this section, Capital City Bank Group,
Inc., and its subsidiary, collectively, are referred to as "CCBG," "Company,"
"we," "us," or "our."
The
period-to-date averages used in this report are based on daily balances for
each
respective period. In certain circumstances, comparing average balances for
the
comparable quarters of consecutive years may be more meaningful than simply
analyzing year-to-date averages. Therefore, where appropriate, quarterly
averages have been presented for analysis and have been noted as such. See
Table
I for average balances and interest rates presented on a quarterly
basis.
In
this
MD&A, we present an operating efficiency ratio and an operating net
noninterest expense as a percent of average assets, both of which are not
calculated based on accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States ("GAAP"), but that we believe provide important information regarding
our
results of operations. Our calculation of the operating efficiency ratio
is
computed by dividing non-interest expense less intangible amortization and
one-time merger expenses, by the sum of tax equivalent net interest income
and
noninterest income. We calculate our operating net noninterest expense as
a
percent of average assets by subtracting noninterest expense excluding
intangible amortization and one-time merger expenses from noninterest income.
Management uses these non-GAAP measures as part of its assessment of its
performance in managing non-interest expenses. We believe that excluding
intangible amortization and one-time merger expenses in our calculations
better
reflect our periodic expenses and is more reflective of normalized operations.
Although
we believe the above-mentioned non-GAAP financial measures enhance investors’
understanding of our business and performance, these non-GAAP financial measures
should not be considered an alternative to GAAP. In addition, there are material
limitations associated with the use of these non-GAAP financial measures
such as
the risks that readers of our financial statements may disagree as to the
appropriateness of items included or excluded in these measures and that
our
measures may not be directly comparable to other companies that calculate
these
measures differently. Our management compensates for these limitations by
providing detailed reconciliations between GAAP information and the non-GAAP
financial measure as detailed below.

Report on Form 10-Q.
CAUTION
CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including this MD&A section, contains
"forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements include,
among
others, statements about our beliefs, plans, objectives, goals, expectations,
estimates and intentions that are subject to significant risks and uncertainties
and are subject to change based on various factors, many of which are beyond
our
control. The words "may," "could," "should," "would," "believe," "anticipate,"
"estimate," "expect," "intend," "plan," "target," "goal," and similar
expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements.
All
forward-looking statements, by their nature, are subject to risks and
uncertainties. Our actual future results may differ materially from those
set
forth in our forward-looking statements. Please see the Introductory Note
and
Item
1A.
Risk Factors of
our
Annual Report on Form 10-K, as updated in our subsequent quarterly reports
filed
on Form 10-Q, and in our other filings made from time to time with the SEC
after
the date of this report.
However,
other factors besides those listed above, in our Quarterly Report or in our
Annual Report also could adversely affect our results, and you should not
consider any such list of factors to be a complete set of all potential risks
or
uncertainties. Any forward-looking statements made by us or on our behalf
speak
only as of the date they are made. We do not undertake to update any
forward-looking statement, except as required by applicable law.
BUSINESS
OVERVIEW
We
are a
financial holding company headquartered in Tallahassee, Florida and are the
parent of our wholly-owned subsidiary, Capital City Bank (the "Bank" or "CCB").
The Bank offers a broad array of products and services through a total of
69
full-service offices located in Florida, Georgia, and Alabama. The Bank also
has
mortgage lending offices in three additional Florida communities, and one
Georgia community. The Bank offers commercial and retail banking services,
as
well as trust and asset management, merchant services, securities brokerage
and
data processing services.
Our
profitability, like most financial institutions, is dependent to a large
extent
upon net interest income, which is the difference between the interest received
on earning assets, such as loans and securities, and the interest paid on
interest-bearing liabilities, principally deposits and borrowings. Results
of
operations are also affected by the provision for loan losses, operating
expenses such as salaries and employee benefits, occupancy and other operating
expenses including income taxes, and non-interest income such as service
charges
on deposit accounts, asset management and trust fees, mortgage banking revenues,
merchant service fees, brokerage and data processing revenues.
Our
philosophy is to grow and prosper, building long-term relationships based
on
quality service, high ethical standards, and safe and sound banking practices.
We are a super-community bank in the relationship banking business with a
locally oriented, community-based focus, which is augmented by experienced,
centralized support in select specialized areas. Our local market orientation
is
reflected in our network of banking office locations, experienced community
executives, and community advisory boards which support our focus on responding
to local banking needs. We strive to offer a broad array of sophisticated
products and to provide quality service by empowering associates to make
decisions in their local markets.
Pursuant
to our long-term strategic initiative, "Project 2010", we have continued
our
expansion, emphasizing a combination of growth in existing markets and
acquisitions. Acquisitions will continue to be focused on a three state area
including Florida, Georgia, and Alabama with a particular focus on financial
institutions, which are $100 million to $400 million in asset size and generally
located on the outskirts of major metropolitan areas. We continue to evaluate
de
novo expansion opportunities in attractive new markets in the event that
acquisition opportunities are not feasible. Other expansion opportunities
that
will be evaluated include asset management, insurance, and mortgage banking.
Recent
Acquisition.
On May
20, 2005, we completed our merger with First Alachua Banking Corporation
("FABC"), headquartered in Alachua, Florida. We issued approximately 906,000
shares of common stock and paid approximately $29.0 million in cash for a
total
purchase price of $58.0 million. FABC's wholly-owned subsidiary, First National
Bank of Alachua, had $228.3 million in assets at closing with seven offices
in
Alachua County and an eighth office in Hastings, Florida, which is in St.
Johns
County.
FINANCIAL
OVERVIEW
A
summary
overview of our financial performance for 2006 versus 2005 is provided below.
2006
Financial Performance Highlights -
Ÿ
|
Earnings
of $8.7 million, up 1.2% and $24.4 million, up 7.0% for the three
and nine
months ended September 30, 2006 as compared to the same periods
in 2005.
|
Ÿ
Diluted
earnings per share of $.47 for the third quarter of 2006 compared to $.46
for
the comparable period in 2005.
Earnings
per diluted share for the nine months ended
September 30, 2006 of $1.31 represents a 4.0% increase over the same period
in
2005.
Ÿ
|
Growth
in earnings was attributable to improvement in operating revenues
of 5.3%
and 11.8% for the three and nine month periods, respectively, driven
primarily by higher net interest income and noninterest
income.
|
Ÿ
|
Taxable
equivalent net interest income grew 4.8% and 11.3% for the three
and nine
month periods, respectively, due to an improved net interest
margin.
|
Ÿ
|
Net
interest margin percentage improved 28 basis points and 31 basis
points
for the three and nine month periods, respectively, driven by favorable
re-pricing spread and higher yield on new loan production.
|
Ÿ
|
Noninterest
income grew 7.8% and 13.7% for the three and nine month periods,
respectively, due primarily to higher deposit fees, asset management
fees,
retail brokerage fees, and card processing
fees.
|
Ÿ
|
Continued
strong credit quality as reflected by a nonperforming asset ratio
of .34%
and an annualized net charge-off ratio of .13% for the third quarter
of
2006 compared to .08% for the same period in 2005. At quarter-end
the
allowance for loan losses was .86% of outstanding loans and provided
coverage of 269% of nonperforming loans compared to .85% and 343%,
respectively, for the same period in 2005.
|
Ÿ
|
We
remain well-capitalized with a risk based capital ratio of
14.72%.

RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
Net
Income
Earnings
for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 were $8.7 million,
or
$.47 per diluted share, and $24.4 million, or $1.31 per diluted share,
respectively. This compared to $8.6 million, or $.46 per diluted share and
$22.8
million, or $1.26 per diluted share in 2005. Results include the impact of
the
acquisition of FABC in May 2005.
The
growth in earnings for the third quarter of 2006 was primarily attributable
to
an increase in operating revenues (defined as net interest income plus
noninterest income) of $2.2 million, partially offset by increases in
noninterest expense of $1.8 million and loan loss provision of $335,000.
The
increase in operating revenues is reflective of a 4.2% increase in
net
interest income and a 7.8% increase in noninterest income.
The
growth in earnings for the nine month period of $1.6 million, or 7.0% was
primarily attributable to an increase in operating revenues of $13.8 million,
or
11.8%, partially offset by an increase in noninterest expense of $11.1 million,
or 13.8%, and income taxes of $797,000, or 6.4%. The increase in operating
revenue reflects an 11.0% increase in net interest income and a 13.7% increase
in noninterest income.

Net
Interest Income
Net
interest income represents our single largest source of earnings and is equal
to
interest income and fees generated by earning assets, less interest expense
paid
on interest bearing liabilities. Third quarter of 2006 taxable-equivalent
net
interest income increased $1.4 million, or 4.8%, over the comparable quarter
in
2005. During the first nine months of 2006, taxable-equivalent net interest
income increased $9.3 million, or 11.3%, respectively, over the first nine
months of 2005. This increase was caused by the effect of our acquisition
of
FABC, higher earning asset yields and a slight improvement in earning asset
mix,
partially offset by higher funding costs and a change in deposit mix. The
increase in yields and funding costs are a result of the higher interest
rate
environment. The combination of these factors resulted in a 28 basis point
improvement in the net interest margin as compared to the third quarter of
2005.
Table I provides a comparative analysis of our average balances and interest
rates.
For
the
three month period ended September 30, 2006, taxable-equivalent interest
income
increased $5.8 million or 15.6%, over the comparable period in 2005. During
the
first nine months of 2006, taxable-equivalent interest income improved $22.4
million, or 21.9%, respectively, over the comparable period in 2005. The
increase was attributable to a change in earning asset mix and higher yields
on
earning assets. Earning asset yields improved 106 basis points to 7.62% in
the
third quarter of 2006 from 6.56% in the third quarter of 2005 and 7.35% in
the
prior quarter, primarily attributable to the higher interest rate environment.
Relative to the third quarter, we anticipate income on earning assets will
remain down slightly for the fourth quarter resulting from a slight decline
in
the net interest margin and an anticipated lower level of earning
assets.
Interest
expense for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2006 increased
$4.4 million, or 55.9% and $13.2 million, or 63.9%, respectively, from the
comparable prior year periods. The increased expense is attributable to higher
rates paid on all interest bearing liabilities and an increase in long-term
debt
costs resulting from debt secured to fund the FABC acquisition. The average
rate
paid on interest bearing liabilities of 2.84% in the third quarter of 2006
represents an increase of 98 and 26 basis points, respectively, over the
third
quarter of 2005 and second quarter of 2006. We anticipate that our interest
expense will continue to increase in the fourth quarter due to continued
upward
pressure on our funding costs driven by the higher rate environment, shifting
deposit mix, and increased competition for deposits.
Our
interest rate spread (defined as the average federal taxable-equivalent yield
on
earning assets less the average rate paid on interest bearing liabilities)
increased from 4.60% for the first nine months of 2005 to 4.75% for the
comparable period in 2006.
Our
net
interest margin (defined as federal taxable-equivalent net interest income
divided by average earning assets) was 5.45% and 5.36%, respectively, for
the
three and nine month periods of 2006, versus 5.17% and 5.05%, respectively,
for
the comparable periods in 2005. The increase in margin reflects higher asset
yields driven by rising interest rates. The net interest margin is expected
to
decline during the fourth quarter, which is attributable to factors noted
above.
Provision
for Loan Losses
The
provision for loan losses was $711,000 and $1.5 million, respectively, for
the
three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2006, compared to $376,000
and
$1.2 million for the same periods in 2005. The increase in the provision
for
both periods was due to a higher level of required reserves.
Net
charge-offs totaled $664,000, or .13% of average loans for the third quarter
of
2006 compared to $403,000, or .08% for the third quarter of 2005. For the
nine-month period ended September 30, 2006, net charge-offs totaled $1.6
million, or .10% of average loans compared to $1.2 million, or .08% of average
loans for the comparable period in 2005. At quarter-end the allowance for
loan
losses was .86% of outstanding loans and provided coverage of 269% of
nonperforming loans.
Charge-off
activity for the respective periods is set forth below:

Noninterest
Income
Noninterest
income increased $1.0 million, or 7.8%, and $5.0 million, or 13.7%,
respectively, over the comparable three and nine month periods in 2005. The
increase in both periods was primarily due to higher deposit fees, asset
management fees, retail brokerage fees, and card processing fees. The
increase in deposit fees is due to the growth in deposit accounts reflective
of
strong deposit growth that has resulted from our “Absolutely Free" checking
products. Asset management fees increased due to growth in new business.
The
improvement in retail brokerage fees is due to an increase in the sales force,
which has increased production. Card processing fees were driven higher by
increased transaction volume for merchant services and increased bank card
activity. Noninterest
income represented 31.9% and 31.5%, respectively, of operating revenue for
the
three and nine month periods of 2006 compared to 31.2% and 31.0%, respectively,
for the same periods in 2005.

Various
significant components of noninterest income are discussed in more detail
below.
Service
Charges on Deposit Accounts.
Deposit
service charge fees increased $815,000, or 14.5%, and $3.2 million, or 21.4%,
respectively, over the comparable three and nine month periods in 2005.
The
increase reflects higher overdraft and nonsufficient funds fees due primarily
to
growth in deposit accounts attributable to an increase in free checking accounts
and improved fee collection efforts.
Asset
Management Fees.
Income
from asset management activities increased $165,000, or 15.7%, and $245,000,
or
7.7%, respectively, over the comparable three and nine month periods in 2005.
The improvement for both periods is primarily due to growth in new business
within existing and new markets. At September 30, 2006, assets under management
totaled $713.0 million, representing an increase of $32.0 million, or 4.7%
from
the comparable period in 2005.
Mortgage
Banking Revenues.
Mortgage banking revenues decreased $493,000, or 37.4%, and $668,000, or
21.5%,
respectively, from the comparable three and nine month periods in 2005. The
decrease reflects the local and national trend of a slower housing market
and a
decreased level of refinance activity.
Card
Fees.
Card
processing fees (including merchant services fees, interchange fees, and
ATM/debit card fees) increased $510,000, or 19.0%, and $1.5 million, or 19.3%,
respectively, over the comparable three and nine periods in 2005. The increase
in merchant service fees is primarily due to higher transaction volume
reflective of growth in merchant accounts. Higher interchange fees and ATM/debit
card fees reflect an increase in our active card base primarily associated
with
growth in deposit accounts.
Other.
Other
income decreased $205,000, or 13.9%, and $23,000, or 0.5%, respectively,
over
the comparable three and nine month periods in 2005 due primarily to lower
miscellaneous loan fees and miscellaneous recoveries.
Noninterest
Expense
Noninterest
expense increased $1.8 million, or 6.3%, and $11.1 million, or 13.8%,
respectively, over the comparable three and nine month periods in 2005. Higher
expense for compensation and occupancy were the primary reasons for the increase
in the third quarter. Increases in compensation, occupancy, and other expense
drove the increase for the nine month period. Management has recently taken
steps to strengthen our expense control procedures, including enhancement
of
current expense policies, creation of an expense control committee, which
will
focus on identifying cost savings strategies, and implementation of a new
software system to improve accountability for expense management across our
various divisions.

Various
significant components of noninterest expense are discussed in more detail
below.
Compensation.
Salaries and associate benefits expense increased $1.2 million, or 8.8%,
and
$6.1 million, or 15.4% over the comparable three and nine month periods in
2005.
For the first nine months of the year, we experienced increases in associate
salaries of $4.4 million, payroll tax expense of $252,000, associate insurance
expense of $350,000, pension plan expense of $250,000, and stock-based
compensation of $788,000. The increase in associate salaries and payroll
tax
expense reflects the addition of FABC associates, annual merit/market based
raises for associates, and lower realized loan cost. Realized loan cost reflects
the impact of SFAS No. 91 "Accounting for Nonrefundable Fees and Costs
Associated with Acquiring Loans", which requires deferral and amortization
of
loan costs that are accounted for as a credit offset to salary expense. The
decrease in the number of loans originated for the first nine months of the
year
reduced the amount of this offset as compared to the first nine months of
2005.
The increase in expense for insurance and pension benefits is reflective
of an
increase in eligible participants. The higher pension expense is also due
to a
lower discount rate used for the 2006 expense projection. Higher stock based
compensation reflects an increase in plan participants and higher target
awards
due to the adoption of our new Incentive Plan.
Occupancy.
Occupancy
expense (including premises and equipment) increased $441,000, or 10.0%,
and
$1.9 million, or 15.0%, respectively over the comparable three and nine month
periods in 2005. For the quarter, we realized increases in depreciation of
$157,000, utilities of $101,000, and maintenance agreements (FF&E) of
$73,000. The increase in depreciation is primarily due to the addition of
one
new office in late 2005, and two replacement offices and office renovations
that
were completed in 2006. Utility expense increased primarily due to a mid-year
rate hike. Higher expense for maintenance agreements (FF&E) was primarly due
to an increase in core processing system and networking costs. For the first
nine months of the year, we experienced increases in depreciation of $927,000,
maintenance and repairs (building and FF&E) of $310,000, utilities of
$275,000, maintenance agreements (FF&E) of $371,000, and building insurance
of $105,000 from the comparable period in 2005. The increase in depreciation
is
related to the addition of FABC offices and the aforementioned office
additions/renovations. An increase in general maintenance service expense
associated with new and existing banking offices, core processing/networking
systems and ATM’s drove the increase in maintenance and repairs. Utility expense
increased due to the aforementioned mid-year rate hike and the addition of
FABC
offices. The increase in expense for maintenance agreements (FF&E) is
primarily due to an increase in core processing and networking costs partially
attributable to enhancement of the company’s back-up and recovery capabilities.
The addition of new/replacement and banking office renovations and an insurance
premium increase drove the increase in building insurance.
Other.
Other
noninterest expense increased $141,000, or 1.4%, and $3.1 million, or 11.0%,
respectively over the three and nine month periods in 2005. For the first
nine
months of the year, the increase was primarily attributable to higher expense
for the following categories: 1) advertising - $209,000, 2) travel and
entertainment - $334,000, 3) intangible amortization - $679,000, 4) interchange
fees - $514,000, and 5) miscellaneous - $1.3 million. The increase in
advertising expense is due to an increase in promotional expenses associated
with the addition of new banking offices in late 2005 and an expansion in
our
line of free checking products. The higher expense for travel and entertainment
is linked primarily to an increase in associate training and company events
during the year. The increase in intangible amortization reflects new core
deposit amortization from the FABC acquisition. The increase in interchange
fees
is due to increased merchant card transaction volume. Miscellaneous expense
grew
due to increases in other losses, ATM/debit card production, associate hiring
expense, and associate training expense.
Operating
net noninterest expense (noninterest income minus noninterest expense, excluding
intangible amortization and one-time merger expenses) as a percent of average
assets was 2.36% for the first nine months of 2006 compared to 2.18% for
the
same period in 2005. Our operating efficiency ratio (noninterest expense,
excluding intangible amortization and one-time merger expenses, expressed
as a
percent of the sum of taxable-equivalent net interest income plus noninterest
income) was 65.90% for the first nine months of 2006 compared to 64.64% for
the
same period in 2005 due to expense growth as discussed above.
Income
Taxes
There
was
no material variance in the tax provision between the third quarter of 2006
and
2005. The
provision for income taxes increased $797,000, or 6.4% during the first nine
months of 2006, reflecting higher taxable income. Our effective tax rate
for the
three and nine-months ended September 30, 2006 was 34.41% and 35.15% compared
to
34.74% and 35.39% for the same periods in 2005.
FINANCIAL
CONDITION
Average
assets decreased $47.4 million, or 1.82%, to $2.560 billion for the
quarter-ended September 30, 2006 from $2.608 billion in the fourth quarter
of
2005. Average earning assets of $2.241 billion decreased $37.9 million, or
1.66%, from the fourth quarter of 2005. A decrease in average loans of $37.7
million and a $6.7 million decrease in average short term investments was
partially offset by a $6.5 million increase in investment securities. These
variances are discussed in more detail below.
Funds
Sold
We
ended
the third quarter with approximately $9.8 million in average net overnight
funds
sold, compared to $5.7 million net overnight funds purchased in the fourth
quarter of 2005. The improvement reflects the increase in non-maturity deposits
that is discussed in further detail below (Deposits).
Growth
in non-maturity deposits and an overall reduction in the loan portfolio during
the first nine months of the year has reduced the Bank’s position in overnight
funds purchased.
Investment
Securities
Our
investment portfolio is a significant component of our operations and, as
such,
it functions as a key element of liquidity and asset/liability management.
As of
September 30, 2006, the average investment portfolio increased $6.5 million,
or
3.6%, from the fourth quarter of 2005. We will continue to evaluate the need
to
purchase securities for the investment portfolio for the remainder of 2006,
taking into consideration the Bank’s overall liquidity position and pledging
requirements.
Securities
classified as available-for-sale are recorded at fair value and unrealized
gains
and losses associated with these securities are recorded, net of tax, as
a
separate component of shareowners’ equity. At September 30, 2006 and December
31, 2005, shareowners’ equity included a net unrealized loss of $1.0 million and
$1.2 million, respectively.
Loans
Average
loans for the third quarter decreased $37.7 million, or 1.83%, from the fourth
quarter, due to an overall slowdown in loan activity and higher than expected
principal pay-downs and pay-offs.
Our
nonperforming loans were $6.4 million at September 30, 2006 compared to $5.3
million at December 31, 2005. As a percent of nonperforming loans, the allowance
for loan losses represented 269% at September 30, 2006 and 331% at December
31,
2005. Nonperforming loans include nonaccruing and restructured loans. The
increase in nonperforming loans during the quarter reflects the addition
of
several small balance commercial loans that had previously been identified
as
potential problem loans. Other real estate, which includes property acquired
either through foreclosure or by receiving a deed in lieu of foreclosure,
was
$0.4 million at September 30, 2006 versus $0.3 million at December 31, 2005.
The
ratio of nonperforming assets as a percent of loans plus other real estate
was
.34% at September 30, 2006, compared to .27% at December 31, 2005.
We
strive
to maintain an allowance for loan losses at a level sufficient to provide
for
the estimated credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio as of the balance
sheet date. Credit losses arise from borrowers’ inability or unwillingness to
repay, and from other risks inherent in the lending process, including
collateral risk, operations risk, concentration risk and economic risk. All
related risks of lending are considered when assessing the adequacy of the
loan
loss reserve. The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision
charged to expense. Loans are charged against the allowance when management
believes collection of the principal is unlikely. The allowance for loan
losses
is based on management's judgment of overall loan quality. This is a significant
estimate based on a detailed analysis of the loan portfolio. The balance
can and
will change based on changes in the assessment of the portfolio's overall
credit
quality.
We
evaluate the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses on a quarterly
basis.
The
allowance for loan losses at September 30, 2006 was $17.3 million, compared
to
$17.4 million at December 31, 2005. At September 30, 2006 the allowance
represented 0.86% of total loans compared to 0.84% at December 31, 2005.
While
there can be no assurance that we will not sustain loan losses in a particular
period that are substantial in relation to the size of the allowance, our
assessment of the loan portfolio does not indicate a likelihood of this
occurrence. It is management’s opinion that the allowance at September 30, 2006
is adequate to absorb losses inherent in the loan portfolio at
quarter-end.
Deposits
Average
deposits for the third quarter of 2006 decreased $.5 million, or .02%, from
the
fourth quarter of 2005. The reduction reflects a decline in savings accounts
($17.0 million), certificates of deposit ($35.6 million), and DDA accounts
($49.1 million) partially offset by increases in NOW account ($27.5 million)
and
money market account ($73.7 million) balances.
The
ratio
of average noninterest bearing deposits to total deposits was 24.4% for the
third quarter of 2006, compared to 27.9% for the fourth quarter of 2005.
For the
same period, the ratio of average interest bearing liabilities to average
earning assets was 75.6% and 73.1%, respectively.
LIQUIDITY
AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Liquidity
General.
Liquidity for a banking institution is the availability of funds to meet
increased loan demand, excessive deposit withdrawals, and the payment of
other
contractual cash obligations. Management monitors our financial position
in an
effort to ensure we have ready access to sufficient liquid funds to meet
normal
transaction requirements and take advantage of investment opportunities and
cover unforeseen liquidity demands. In addition to core deposit growth, sources
of funds available to meet liquidity demands include cash received through
ordinary business activities (i.e., collection of interest and fees), federal
funds sold, loan and investment maturities, our bank lines of credit, approved
lines for the purchase of federal funds by CCB and Federal Home Loan Bank
("FHLB") advances.
Average
liquidity (defined as funds sold and interest bearing deposits with other
banks)
for the third quarter of 2006 was $25.5 million compared to $32.3 million
in the
fourth quarter of 2005. The decrease is primarily reflective of the pay-off
of
two large FHLB advances during the third quarter. Liquidity levels are
anticipated to decline slightly during the fourth quarter.
Borrowings.
We have
the ability to draw on a $25.0 million revolving credit note, due on October
15,
2007. Interest is payable quarterly at LIBOR plus an applicable margin on
advances. The revolving credit note is unsecured. The existing loan agreement
contains certain financial covenants that we must maintain. At September
30,
2006, we were in compliance with all of the terms of the agreement and had
$25.0
million available under the credit facility.
For
the
first nine months of the year, the Bank made FHLB advance payments totaling
approximately $45.7 million and obtained one new FHLB advance for $3.2 million.
We
issued
a $32.0 million junior subordinated deferrable interest note in May 2005
to a
wholly owned Delaware statutory trust, Capital City Bank Group Capital Trust
II
("CCBG Capital Trust II"). Interest payments are due quarterly at a fixed
rate
of 6.07% for the first five years, then adjust annually thereafter based
on the
three month LIBOR plus a margin of 1.80%. The note matures on June 15, 2035.
The
proceeds of the borrowing were used to fund the cash portion of the FABC
purchase price.
Contractual
Cash Obligations.
We
maintain certain contractual arrangements to make future cash payments. The
table below details those future cash payment obligations as of September
30,
2006. Payments for borrowings do not include interest. Payments related to
leases are based on actual payments specified in the underlying
contracts.

Capital
Equity
capital was $319.0 million as of September 30, 2006 compared to $305.8 million
as of December 31, 2005. Management continues to monitor our capital position
in
relation to our level of assets with the objective of maintaining a strong
capital position. The leverage ratio was 11.26% at September 30, 2006 compared
to 10.27% at December 31, 2005. Further, the risk-adjusted capital ratio
of
14.72% at September 30, 2006 exceeds the 8.0% minimum requirement under the
risk-based regulatory guidelines. As allowed by the Federal Reserve Board
capital guidelines the trust preferred securities issued by Capital City
Bank
Group Capital Trust I and CCBG Capital Trust II are included as Tier 1 capital
in our capital calculations.
Adequate
capital and financial strength is paramount to the stability of CCBG and
the
Bank. Cash dividends declared and paid should not place unnecessary strain
on
our capital levels. Although a consistent dividend payment is believed to
be
favorably viewed by the financial markets and shareowners, the Board of
Directors will declare dividends only if we are considered to have adequate
capital. Future capital requirements and corporate plans are considered when
the
Board considers a dividend payment. Dividends declared and paid during the
third
quarter of 2006 totaled $.1625 per share compared to $.1520 per share for
the
third quarter of 2005, an increase of 6.9%. The dividend payout ratios for
the
third quarter ended 2006 and 2005 were 34.9% and 33.3%,
respectively.
State
and
federal regulations as well as our long-term debt agreements place certain
restrictions on the payment of dividends by both CCBG and the Bank. At September
30, 2006, these regulations and covenants did not impair CCBG or the Bank's
ability to declare and pay dividends or to meet other existing obligations
in
the normal course of business.
During
the first nine months of 2006, shareowners’ equity increased $13.3 million, or
5.8%, on an annualized basis. Growth in equity during the first nine months
of
the year was positively impacted by net income of $24.4 million, a decrease
in
the net unrealized loss on available-for-sale securities of $0.3 million,
the
issuance of common stock of $1.6 million and, and stock-based compensation
accretion of $0.9 million. Equity was reduced by dividends paid during the
first
nine months of the year by $9.1 million, or $.4875 per share and the repurchase
of common stock of $4.8 million. At September 30, 2006, our common stock
had a
book value of $17.18 per diluted share compared to $16.39 at December 31,
2005.
Our
Board
of Directors has authorized the repurchase of up to 1,171,875 shares of our
outstanding common stock. The purchases are made in the open market or in
privately negotiated transactions. To date, we have repurchased a total of
864,760 shares at an average purchase price of $18.28 per share. We repurchased
148,876 shares of our common stock in the second quarter of 2006 at an average
purchase price of $32.41 per share.
OFF-BALANCE
SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
We
do not
currently engage in the use of derivative instruments to hedge interest rate
risks. However, we are a party to financial instruments with off-balance
sheet
risks in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of our
clients.
At
September 30, 2006, we had $443.3 million in commitments to extend credit
and
$17.8 million in standby letters of credit. Commitments to extend credit
are
agreements to lend to a client so 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 conditional commitments issued by us to guarantee
the performance of a client to a third party. We use the same credit policies
in
establishing commitments and issuing letters of credit as we do for on-balance
sheet instruments.
If
commitments arising from these financial instruments continue to require
funding
at historical levels, management does not anticipate that such funding will
adversely impact its ability to meet on-going obligations. In the event these
commitments require funding in excess of historical levels, management believes
current liquidity, available lines of credit from the FHLB, investment security
maturities and our revolving credit facility provide a sufficient source
of
funds to meet these commitments.
ACCOUNTING
POLICIES
Critical
Accounting Policies
The
consolidated financial statements and accompanying Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America, which require us to make
various estimates and assumptions (see Note 1 in the Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements). We believe that, of our significant accounting policies,
the following may involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity.
Allowance
for Loan Losses.
The
allowance for loan losses is established through a charge to the provision
for
loan losses. Provisions are made to reserve for estimated losses in loan
balances. The allowance for loan losses is a significant estimate and is
evaluated quarterly by us for adequacy. The use of different estimates or
assumptions could produce a different required allowance, and thereby a larger
or smaller provision recognized as expense in any given reporting period.
A
further discussion of the allowance for loan losses can be found in the section
entitled "Allowance for Loan Losses" and Note 1 in the Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements in our 2005 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Intangible
Assets.
Intangible assets consist primarily of goodwill, core deposit assets, and
other
identifiable intangibles that were recognized in connection with various
acquisitions. Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of acquired businesses
over the fair market value of their identifiable net assets. We perform an
impairment review on an annual basis to determine if there has been impairment
of our goodwill. We have determined that no impairment existed at December
31,
2005. Impairment testing requires management to make significant judgments
and
estimates relating to the fair value of its identified reporting units.
Significant changes to these estimates may have a material impact on our
reported results.
Core
deposit assets represent the premium we paid for core deposits. Core deposit
intangibles are amortized on the straight-line method over various periods
ranging from 5-10 years. Generally, core deposits refer to nonpublic,
non-maturing deposits including noninterest-bearing deposits, NOW, money
market
and savings. We make certain estimates relating to the useful life of these
assets, and rate of run-off based on the nature of the specific assets and
the
client bases acquired. If there is a reason to believe there has been a
permanent loss in value, management will assess these assets for impairment.
Any
changes in the original estimates may materially affect reported
earnings.
Pension
Assumptions. We
have a
defined benefit pension plan for the benefit of substantially all of our
associates. Our funding policy with respect to the pension plan is to contribute
amounts to the plan sufficient to meet minimum funding requirements as set
by
law. Pension expense, reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Income
in
noninterest expense as "Salaries and Associate Benefits," is determined by
an
external actuarial valuation based on assumptions that are evaluated annually
as
of December 31, the measurement date for the pension obligation. The
Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition reflect an accrued pension
benefit cost due to funding levels and unrecognized actuarial amounts. The
most
significant assumptions used in calculating the pension obligation are the
weighted-average discount rate used to determine the present value of the
pension obligation, the weighted-average expected long-term rate of return
on
plan assets, and the assumed rate of annual compensation increases. These
assumptions are re-evaluated annually with the external actuaries, taking
into
consideration both current market conditions and anticipated long-term market
conditions.
The
weighted-average discount rate is determined by matching anticipated Retirement
Plan cash flows for a 30-year period to long-term corporate Aa-rated bonds
and
solving for the underlying rate of return, which investing in such securities
would generate. This methodology is applied consistently from year-to-year.
We
anticipate using a 5.75% discount rate for 2006.
The
weighted-average expected long-term rate of return on plan assets is determined
based on the current and anticipated future mix of assets in the plan. The
assets currently consist of equity securities, U.S. Government and Government
agency debt securities, and other securities (typically temporary liquid
funds
awaiting investment). We anticipate using a rate of return on plan assets
of
8.0% for 2006.
The
assumed rate of annual compensation increases of 5.50% for 2006 is based
on
expected trends in salaries and the employee base. This assumption is not
expected to change materially in 2006.
Information
on components of our net periodic benefit cost is provided in Note 8 of the
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included herein and Note 12 of
the
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2005 Annual Report on Form
10-K.
Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards
SFAS
No. 155, "Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments."
SFAS 155 amends SFAS 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and
Hedging Activities" and SFAS 140, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing
of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities." SFAS 155 (i)
permits fair value re-measurement for any hybrid financial instrument that
contains an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation,
(ii)
clarifies which interest-only strips and principal-only strips are not subject
to the requirements of SFAS 133, (iii) establishes a requirement to
evaluate interests in securitized financial assets to identify interests
that
are freestanding derivatives or that are hybrid financial instruments that
contain an embedded derivative requiring bifurcation, (iv) clarifies that
concentrations of credit risk in the form of subordination are not embedded
derivatives, and (v) amends SFAS 140 to eliminate the prohibition on a
qualifying special purpose entity from holding a derivative financial instrument
that pertains to a beneficial interest other than another derivative financial
instrument. SFAS 155 is effective for us on January 1, 2007, and is not
expected to have a significant impact on our financial statements.
SFAS No. 157,
"Fair Value Measurements." SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a
framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles,
and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 is
effective for us on January 1, 2008 and is not expected to have a
significant impact on the our financial statements.
SFAS No. 158,
"Employers' Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement
Plans, an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88 106, and 132(R)."
SFAS 158 requires an employer to recognize the over-funded or under-funded
status of defined benefit postretirement plans as an asset or a liability
in its
statement of financial position. The funded status is measured as the difference
between plan assets at fair value and the benefit obligation (the projected
benefit obligation for pension plans or the accumulated benefit obligation
for
other postretirement benefit plans). An employer is also required to measure
the
funded status of a plan as of the date of its year-end statement of financial
position with changes in the funded status recognized through comprehensive
income. SFAS 158 also requires certain disclosures regarding the effects on
net periodic benefit cost for the next fiscal year that arise from delayed
recognition of gains or losses, prior service costs or credits, and the
transition asset or obligation. We will be required to recognize the funded
status of our defined benefit pension plan in our financial statements for
the
year ended December 31, 2006. The requirement to measure plan assets and
benefit obligations as of the date of the year-end statement of financial
position is effective for our financial statements beginning with the year
ended
after December 31, 2008. We are currently evaluating the potential impact
of SFAS 158 on our consolidated financial statements.
Financial
Accounting Standards Board Interpretations
In
July
2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation 48, "Accounting for Income Tax
Uncertainties" ("FIN 48"). FIN 48 defines the threshold for recognizing the
benefits of tax return positions in the financial statements as
"more-likely-than-not" to be sustained by the taxing authority. The recently
issued literature also provides guidance on the derecognition, measurement
and
classification of income tax uncertainties, along with any related interest
and
penalties. FIN 48 also includes guidance concerning accounting for income
tax
uncertainties in interim periods and increases the level of disclosures
associated with any recorded income tax uncertainties. FIN 48 is effective
for
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The differences between the
amounts recognized in the statements of financial position prior to the adoption
of FIN 48 and the amounts reported after adoption will be accounted for as
a
cumulative-effect adjustment recorded to the beginning balance of retained
earnings. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of FIN 48 on our
consolidated financial statements.
SEC
Staff Accounting Bulletins
Staff
Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 108, "Considering the Effects of a Prior Year
Misstatements When Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial
Statements." SAB 108 addresses how the effects of prior year uncorrected
errors must be considered in quantifying misstatements in the current year
financial statements. The effects of prior year uncorrected errors include
the
potential accumulation of improper amounts that may result in a material
misstatement on the balance sheet or the reversal of prior period errors
in the
current period that result in a material misstatement of the current period
income statement amounts. Adjustments to current or prior period financial
statements would be required in the event that after application of various
approaches for assessing materiality of a misstatement in current period
financial statements and consideration of all relevant quantitative and
qualitative factors, a misstatement is determined to be material. SAB 108
is applicable to all financial statements issued by us after November 15,
2006. We
are
currently evaluating the potential impact of SAB 108 on our consolidated
financial statements.

QUANTITATIVE
AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET
RISK
|
Overview
Market
risk management arises from changes in interest rates, exchange rates, commodity
prices, and equity prices. We have risk management policies to monitor and
limit
exposure to market risk and do not participate in activities that give rise
to
significant market risk involving exchange rates, commodity prices, or equity
prices. In asset and liability management activities, policies are in place
that
are designed to minimize structural interest rate risk.
Interest
Rate Risk Management
The
normal course of business activity exposes us to interest rate risk.
Fluctuations in interest rates may result in changes in the fair market value
of
our financial instruments, cash flows and net interest income. We seek to
avoid
fluctuations in our net interest margin and to maximize net interest income
within acceptable levels of risk through periods of changing interest rates.
Accordingly, our interest rate sensitivity and liquidity are monitored on
an
ongoing basis by our Asset and Liability Committee ("ALCO"), which oversees
market risk management and establishes risk measures, limits and policy
guidelines for managing the amount of interest rate risk and its effects
on net
interest income and capital. A variety of measures are used to provide for
a
comprehensive view of the magnitude of interest rate risk, the distribution
of
risk, the level of risk over time and the exposure to changes in certain
interest rate relationships.
ALCO
continuously monitors and manages the balance between interest rate-sensitive
assets and liabilities. ALCO's objective is to manage the impact of fluctuating
market rates on net interest income within acceptable levels. In order to
meet
this objective, management may adjust the rates charged/paid on loans/deposits
or may shorten/lengthen the duration of assets or liabilities within the
parameters set by ALCO.
Our
financial assets and liabilities are classified as other-than-trading. An
analysis of the other-than-trading financial components, including the fair
values, are presented in Table II. This table presents our consolidated interest
rate sensitivity position as of September 30, 2006 based upon certain
assumptions as set forth in the Notes to the Table. The objective of interest
rate sensitivity analysis is to measure the impact on our net interest income
due to fluctuations in interest rates. The asset and liability values presented
in Table II may not necessarily be indicative of our interest rate sensitivity
over an extended period of time.
We
expect
rising rates to have a favorable impact on the net interest margin, subject
to
the magnitude and timeframe over which the rate changes occur. However, as
general interest rates rise or fall, other factors such as current market
conditions and competition may impact how we respond to changing rates and
thus
impact the magnitude of change in net interest income. Non-maturity deposits
offer management greater discretion as to the direction, timing, and magnitude
of interest rate changes and can have a material impact on our interest rate
sensitivity. In addition, the relative level of interest rates as compared
to
the current yields/rates of existing assets/liabilities can impact both the
direction and magnitude of the change in net interest margin as rates rise
and
fall from one period to the next.
Inflation
The
impact of inflation on the banking industry differs significantly from that
of
other industries in which a large portion of total resources are invested
in
fixed assets such as property, plant and equipment.
Assets
and liabilities of financial institutions are virtually all monetary in nature,
and therefore are primarily impacted by interest rates rather than changing
prices. While the general level of inflation underlies most interest rates,
interest rates react more to changes in the expected rate of inflation and
to
changes in monetary and fiscal policy. Net interest income and the interest
rate
spread are good measures of our ability to react to changing interest rates
and
are discussed in further detail in the section entitled "Results of
Operations."

CONTROLS
AND PROCEDURES
|
Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As
of
September 30, 2006, the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q, our
management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer,
evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as
defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Based
upon
that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer
each
concluded that as of September 30, 2006, the end of the period covered by
this
Form 10-Q, we maintained effective disclosure controls and
procedures.
Changes
in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our
management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer,
has reviewed our internal control. There have been no significant changes
in our
internal control during our most recently completed fiscal quarter, nor
subsequent to the date of their evaluation, that could significantly affect
our
internal control over financial reporting.
PART
II.
|
OTHER
