PLUMAS BANCORP
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

1. GENERAL

Plumas Bancorp (the “Company”) was incorporated on January 17, 2002 and became the sole shareholder of Plumas Bank (the “Bank”) on June 21, 2002. The Company formed Plumas Statutory Trust I for the sole purpose of issuing trust preferred securities on September 26, 2002. The Company formed Plumas Statutory Trust II for the sole purpose of issuing trust preferred securities on September 28, 2005.

The Bank operates twelve branches in California, including branches in Alturas, Chester, Fall River Mills, Greenville, Kings Beach, Loyalton, Portola, Quincy, Susanville, Tahoe City, Truckee and Westwood. The Bank’s deposits are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) up to applicable legal limits. The Bank’s primary source of revenue is generated from providing loans to customers who are predominately small and middle market businesses and individuals residing in the surrounding areas.

2. CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and the accounts of its wholly-owned subsidiary, Plumas Bank. Plumas Statutory Trust I and Plumas Statutory Trust II are not consolidated into the Company’s consolidated financial statements and, accordingly, are accounted for under the equity method. In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position at March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005 and the results of operations and cash flows for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2006 and 2005.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim reporting on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain disclosures normally presented in the notes to the consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been omitted. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s 2005 Annual Report to Shareholders on Form 10-K. The results of operations for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 may not necessarily be indicative of future operating results. In preparing such financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the balance sheet and revenues and expenses for the periods reported. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

On August 17, 2005 the Company’s Board of Directors approved a three-for-two stock split for shareholders of record at the close of business on September 2, 2005 and effective on September 16, 2005. All share and per share data in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been retroactively restated to give effect to the stock split.

Management has determined that because all of the commercial banking products and services offered by the Company are available in each branch of the Bank, all branches are located within the same economic environment and management does not allocate resources based on the performance of different lending or transaction activities, it is appropriate to aggregate the Bank branches and report them as a single operating segment. No single customer accounts for more than 10% of the revenues of the Company or the Bank.

3. LOANS

Outstanding loans are summarized below, in thousands:

		March 31,				December 31,
		2006				2005
Commercial		$	39,187			$	42,252
Agricultural			30,572				31,018
Real estate – mortgage			112,883				110,686
Real estate – construction and land development			56,728				56,370
Consumer			83,305				81,320
			322,675				321,646
Deferred loan costs, net			1,012				766
Allowance for loan losses			(3,436	)			(3,256	)
		$	320,251			$	319,156

4. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company is party to claims and legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the amount of ultimate liability with respect to such proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition or result of operations of the Company taken as a whole.

In the normal course of business, there are various outstanding commitments to extend credit which are not reflected in the financial statements, including loan commitments of $106,597,000 and $107,500,000 and stand-by letters of credit of $1,385,000 and $1,195,000 at March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively.

Of the loan commitments outstanding at March 31, 2006, $38,119,000 are real estate construction loan commitments that are expected to fund within the next twelve months. The remaining commitments primarily relate to revolving lines of credit or other commercial loans, and many of these are expected to expire without being drawn upon. Therefore, the total commitments do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. Each loan commitment and the amount and type of collateral obtained, if any, are evaluated on an individual basis. Collateral held varies, but may include real property, bank deposits, debt or equity securities or business assets.

Stand-by letters of credit are conditional commitments written to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. These guarantees are primarily related to the purchases of inventory by commercial customers and are typically short-term in nature. Credit risk is similar to that involved in extending loan commitments to customers and accordingly, evaluation and collateral requirements similar to those for loan commitments are used. The deferred liability related to the Company’s stand-by letters of credit was not significant at March 31, 2006 or December 31, 2005.

5. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock, such as stock options, result in the issuance of common stock which shares in the earnings of the Company. The treasury stock method has been applied to determine the dilutive effect of stock options in computing diluted earnings per share.

		For the Three Months
		Ended March 31,
		2006				2005
Earnings Per Share:
Basic earnings per share		$	0.24			$	0.19
Diluted earnings per share		$	0.23			$	0.18
Weighted Average Number of Shares Outstanding:
Basic shares			4,988,365				4,847,059
Diluted shares			5,091,231				5,124,034

There were no stock options in the three-month periods ended March 31, 2006 and March 31, 2005 considered to be antidilutive.

6. COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

Total comprehensive income for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 totaled $1,076,000 and $179,000, respectively. Comprehensive income is comprised of unrealized losses, net of taxes, on available-for-sale investment securities, which were $99,000 and $718,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively, together with net income.

At March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005, accumulated other comprehensive loss totaled $1,190,000 and $1,091,000, respectively, and is reflected, net of taxes, as a component of shareholders’ equity.

7. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

At March 31, 2006, the Company had two stock-based compensation plans, the Plumas Bank 2001 and 1991 Stock Option Plans, which are described below. Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (R), Share Based Payment (“SFAS 123 (R)”), using the modified prospective application transition method, which requires recognizing expense for options granted prior to the adoption date equal to the fair value of the unvested amounts over their remaining vesting period based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of SFAS No. 123 Accounting for Stock Based Compensation and compensation cost for all share based payments granted subsequent to January 1, 2006 based on the grant date fair values estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123 (R). There were a total of 2,500 options granted during the three-month period ending March 31, 2006 and no option grants made during the three-month period ending March 31, 2005. Results for prior periods have not been restated. Prior to January 1, 2006, the Company accounted for the Stock Option Plans under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related Interpretations and accordingly did not recognize compensation expense related to outstanding stock options.

As a result of adopting SFAS 123 (R), the Company’s income before provision for income taxes and net income for the three months ended March 31, 2006 was $43,000 and $38,000, respectively, lower than if we had continued to account for share-based compensation under APB 25. Basic and diluted earnings per share for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 would have been $.24 and $.24, respectively, without the adoption of SFAS 123 (R) compared to $.24 and $.23, respectively, as reported.

SFAS 123 (R) requires the cash flows resulting from the tax benefits resulting from tax deductions in excess of the compensation cost recognized for those options (excess tax benefits) to be classified as a cash flow from financing in the statement of cash flows. These excess tax benefits were not significant for the Company.

The following table illustrates the pro forma FAS 123 (R) adjustment on consolidated net income and earnings per share had the Company recorded compensation expense in accordance with FAS 123 (R) for the three months ended March 31, 2005, dollars in thousands except per share amounts:

Net income as reported		$	897
Deduct: Total stock-based compensation expense determined under the fair value based method for all awards, net of related tax effects			43
Pro forma net income		$	854
Basic earnings per share – as reported		$	0.19
Basic earnings per share – pro forma		$	0.18
Diluted earnings per share – as reported		$	0.18
Diluted earnings per share – pro forma		$	0.17

8. STOCK OPTION PLANS

In 2001 and 1991, the Company established Stock Option Plans for which 995,718 shares of common stock remain reserved for issuance to employees and directors and 615,281 shares are available for future grants under incentive and nonstatutory agreements as of March 31, 2006. The plans require that the option price may not be less than the fair market value of the stock at the date the option is granted, and that the stock must be paid in full at the time the option is exercised. Payment in full for the option price must be made in cash or with Company common stock previously acquired by the optionee and held by the optionee for a period of at least six months. The options expire on dates determined by the Board of Directors, but not later than ten years from the date of grant. Upon grant, options vest ratably over a three to five year period. All options outstanding at March 31, 2006 are expected to vest. A summary of the option activity during the three months ended March 31, 2006 within the Stock Options Plans follows:

		For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2006
										Weighted Average				Average
						Weighted Average				Remaining				Intrinsic
		Shares				Exercise Price				Contractual Term				Value (in thousands)
Incentive:
Options outstanding at January 1, 2006			242,845				11.05
Options granted			—				—
Options exercised			37,416				9.65
Options cancelled			—				—
Options outstanding at March 31, 2006			205,429				11.30				6.9			$	1,697
Options exercisable at March 31, 2006			102,621				9.42				5.9			$	1,697
Nonstatutory:
Options outstanding at January 1, 2006			113,131				10.59
Options granted			2,500				18.79
Options exercised			—				—
Options cancelled			—				—
Options outstanding at March 31, 2006			115,631				10.77				6.4			$	1,016
Options exercisable at March 31, 2006			70,386				9.15				5.5			$	733

There were a total of 2,500 options granted during the three-month period ending March 31, 2006 and no option grants made during the three-month period ending March 31, 2005. The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model that uses assumptions based on expected option life, expected stock volatility, risk free interest rate, and dividend yield. The Company uses historical data to estimate expected option life. Stock volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock. The risk-free rate is based on the U. S. Treasury yield curve for the periods within the contractual life of the options in effect at the time of grant. Assumptions used for the grants made in the first quarter of 2006 are as follows:

		For the Three Months Ended
		March 31, 2006				March 31, 2005
Weighted average fair value of options granted			4.60			$	N/A
Dividend yield			1.2	%			N/A
Expected volatility			16.7	%			N/A
Risk-free interest rate			4.6	%			N/A
Expected option life in years			5.0				N/A

As of March 31, 2006, there was $469,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the 1991 Plan and 2001 Plan. That cost is expected to be realized over a weighted average period of 1.95 years. The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the quarters ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 was $358,000 and $369,000 respectively. The total fair value of shares vested during the quarters ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 was $15,000 and $7,000 respectively.

9. RECENT ACCOUNTING DEVELOPMENTS

In March 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement No. 156 (SFAS 156), Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets – An Amendment of FASB Statement No. 140. SFAS 156 requires that a servicing asset or liability be recognized each time a contract to service a financial asset is entered into, requires that all separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities be initially measured at fair value, if practicable, and permits the subsequent measurement of servicing assets and servicing liabilities based on the amortization method or the fair value measurement method. SFAS 156 also permits a one-time reclassification of available-for-sale securities to trading securities provided that the available-for-sale securities are identified in some manner as offsetting the entity’s exposure to changes in the fair value of servicing assets or servicing liabilities that are subsequently measured at fair value. SFAS 156 will become effective as of the beginning of the first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006. Earlier adoption is permitted at the beginning of an entity’s fiscal year provided the entity has not yet issued financial statements, including interim financial statements, for any period of that fiscal year.

The Company will apply the requirements for recognition and initial measurement of servicing assets and servicing liabilities prospectively to all transactions entered into on or after January 1, 2007. Management has not completed its evaluation of the impact of SFAS 156 but believes that the effect on the Company’s financial position and results of operations will not be material.

10. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On April 21, 2006, the Company declared a common stock cash dividend of $0.13 per share for the second quarter of 2006. The dividend will be payable on May 15, 2006 to its shareholders of record on May 1, 2006.

PART I — FINANCIAL INFORMATION

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Certain matters discussed in this Quarterly Report are forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. Such risks and uncertainties include, among others, (1) significant increases in competitive pressures in the financial services industry; (2) changes in the interest rate environment resulting in reduced margins; (3) general economic conditions, either nationally or regionally, maybe less favorable than expected, resulting in, among other things, a deterioration in credit quality; (4) changes in regulatory environment; (5) loss of key personnel; (6) fluctuations in the real estate market; (7) changes in business conditions and inflation; (8) operational risks including data processing systems failures or fraud; and (9) changes in securities markets. Therefore, the information set forth herein should be carefully considered when evaluating the business prospects of Plumas Bancorp.

When the Company uses in this Quarterly Report the words “anticipate”, “estimate”, “expect”, “project”, “intend”, “commit”, “believe” and similar expressions, the Company intends to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements are not guarantees of performance and are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions, including those described in this Quarterly Report. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those anticipated, estimated, expected, projected, intended, committed or believed. The future results and stockholder values of the Company may differ materially from those expressed in these forward-looking statements. Many of the factors that will determine these results and values are beyond the Company’s ability to control or predict. For those statements, the Company claims the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

On January 1, 2006, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (R), Share Based Payment (“SFAS 123(R)”) using the modified prospective transition method. Prior to adoption of this statement, the Company accounted for its share-based employee compensation plans under the recognition and measurement provisions of APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. See Note 7 and 8 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information related to implementation of SFAS 123(R). There have been no other changes to the Company’s critical accounting policies from those disclosed in the Company’s 2005 Annual Report to Shareholders’ on Form 10-K.

This discussion should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, including the notes thereto, appearing elsewhere in this report.

OVERVIEW

The Company’s net income increased $278 thousand, or 31%, to $1,175,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2006 from $897,000 for the same period in 2005. The primary contributor to the increase in net income for the first three months of 2006 was a $1.3 million increase in interest income. The positive effects on net income of the interest income growth were offset by a $625 thousand increase in interest expense, an increase in salaries and benefits of $134 thousand and an increase in the provision for income taxes of $270 thousand.

Total assets at March 31, 2006 were $471 million, a slight decrease of $1.7 million from the $473 million at December 31, 2005. The change in the mix in assets resulted from the scheduled maturity during the first quarter of 2006 of several investment securities, which in total declined $8.3 million, or 8%, to $89.5 million at March 31, 2006 from $97.8 million at December 31, 2005. The decline in investment securities was largely offset by growth in the Federal funds sold balances, which increased $6.3 million, or 86%, to $13.6 million at March 31, 2006 from $7.3 million at December 31, 2005. Loans also increased slightly; up $1.1 million to $320 million at March 31, 2006 from 319 million for the same period in 2005. Deposits declined $2.9 million, or less than 1%, to $424 million at March 31, 2006 from $427 million at December 31, 2005.

The annualized return on average assets was 1.02% for the three months ended March 31, 2006 up from 0.86% for the same period in 2005. The annualized return on average equity was 14.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2006 up from 12.7% for the same period in 2005.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2006

Net interest income before provision for loan losses. Net interest income, on a nontax-equivalent basis, was $5.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006, an increase of $654 thousand, or 14%, from $4.7 million for the same period in 2005. The increase in net interest income was primarily attributed to volume and rate increases in the Company’s average loan balances partially offset by increases in the rates paid on time deposits and interest bearing checking account balances.

Interest income increased $1.3 million, or 23%, to $6.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006 primarily as a result of the volume and rate increases in loan balances. The Company’s average loan balances were $321 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006, up $47 million, or 17%, from the $274 million for the same period in 2005. The average rate earned on the company’s loan balances increased 47 basis points to 7.58% during the first three months of 2006 versus 7.11% during the first three months of 2005.

Interest expense increased $625 thousand, or 68%, to $1,548,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2006, up from $923,000 for the same period in 2005. The increase in interest expense was primarily attributed to rate increases on time deposits and interest bearing checking account balances and the increase in the level of and rates paid on the junior subordinated debentures. For the three months ended March 31,

2006 compared to the same period in 2005, the Company’s average rate paid on time deposits increased 99 basis points to 3.26% from 2.27%. The average balance of the junior subordinated debentures increased $4.1 million to $10.3 million and the average rate paid increased 130 basis points from 5.90% to 7.20%. The average rate paid on interest bearing checking account balances increased 133 basis points to 1.47% for the first three months of 2006 versus 0.14% for the first three months of 2005 primarily as a result of the introduction of Money Fund Plu$ in September 2005.

Money Fund Plu$ is a high interest bearing checking account designed to pay rates comparable to those available on a typical brokerage account. Since its introduction, there has been significant growth in the total Money Fund Plu$ balances with $28.5 million of average balances during the first quarter of 2006 and balances as of March 31, 2006 of $34.2 million.

As a result of the changes noted above, the net interest margin for the three months ended March 31, 2006 increased 12 basis points, or 2%, to 5.14%, up from 5.02% for the same period in 2005.

The following table presents for the three-month periods indicated the distribution of consolidated average assets, liabilities and shareholders’ equity. It also presents the amounts of interest income from interest-earning assets and the resultant annualized yields expressed in both dollars and annualized yield percentages, as well as the amounts of interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities and the resultant cost expressed in both dollars and annualized rate percentages.

Provision for loan losses. The Company recorded $300,000 in provision for loan losses for both three month periods ended March 31, 2006 and 2005. Management assesses its loan quality monthly to maintain an adequate allowance for loan losses. Based on information currently available, management believes that the allowance for loan losses is adequate to absorb probably losses in the portfolio. However, no assurance can be given that the Company may not sustain charge-offs which are in excess of the allowance in any given period. The Company’s loan portfolio composition and non-performing assets are further discussed under the financial condition section below.

Non-interest income. During the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, total non-interest income remained stable at $1.1 million. Although there were increases to several components of non-interest income there were also offsetting declines to other components that resulted in an overall minor increase to non-interest income of $3 thousand. Positive changes included service charges, dividends on Federal Home Loan Bank stock holdings, official check fees as well as not incurring any losses on the sale of other vehicles owned and investment security sales. Non-interest income components that declined offsetting these increases included tax refunds, investment services income and loan servicing fees.

Service charges on deposit accounts increased $31 thousand over the same three-month period last year. This increase relates primarily to increased customer usage of deposit account overdrafts privileges and the collection of fees resulting from those overdrafts.

In the first quarter of 2005, the Company recorded $58 thousand of tax refunds related to previous year’s overpayments. These tax refunds are not expected to reoccur. As a result, in 2006, changes to total non-interest income were negatively impacted by these tax refunds.

The following table describes the components of non-interest income for the three-month periods ending March 31, 2006 and 2005, in thousands:

		For the Three
		Months
		Ended March 31

Non-interest expenses. During the three months ended March 31, 2006, total non-interest expense increased $109 thousand, or 3%, to $4.3 million, up from $4.2 million for the comparable period in 2005. The increase in non-interest expense was primarily the result of increases in salaries and employee benefits and business development expenses somewhat offset by declines in outside service fees and courier costs.

Salaries and other employee benefits increased $134 thousand, or 6%, over the same three-month period last year. Salaries, payroll taxes and other employee benefits increased as a result of staffing additions related to branch administration and the establishment of a customer call and resource center as well as general salary merit increases. On January 1, 2006, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (R), Share Based Payment (“SFAS 123 (R)”), using the modified prospective application transition method. As a result of adopting SFAS 123 (R), the Company recorded $31,000 of employee share based compensation expense and $12,000 of director share based compensation expense during the first quarter of 2006. As of March 31, 2006, there was $335,000 of total unrecognized employee compensation costs and $134,000 of total unrecognized director compensation cost related to non-vested share-based compensation arrangements. These costs are expected to be realized over a weighted average period of 1.95 years. Higher salary and employee benefit costs were reduced to some extent by the deferral of additional salary costs related to increased loan origination activities and reduced workers’ compensation costs.

Business development expense increased $33 thousand, or 33%, from the first quarter of 2005 to the first quarter of 2006. Business development increases were primarily the result of increased training and education expenses.

Outside service fees decreased $33 thousand, or 43%, over the same three-month period last year. Components of outside service costs that decreased include data processing fees, correspondent bank charges and automated teller machine costs.

Armored car and courier costs decreased $27 thousand, or 29%, from the first quarter of 2005 to the first quarter of 2006. Courier savings were realized as a result of the Bank’s implementation of “Check 21”. Check 21 is a federal law promoting the transmission of checks electronically between institutions rather than physically transporting the items.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Loan portfolio composition. The Company continues to manage the mix of its loan portfolio consistent with its identity as a community bank serving the financing needs of all sectors of Northeastern California. Although the Company offers a broad array of financing options, it continues to concentrate its focus on small- to medium-sized commercial businesses. These commercial loans are diversified as to the industries and types of businesses, thus limiting material exposure from any one industry concentration. The Company offers both fixed and floating rate loans and obtains collateral in the form of real property, business assets and deposit accounts, but looks to business and personal cash flows as its primary source of repayment. As of March 31, 2006, real estate mortgage and consumer loan balances as a percentage of total loans increased to 35.0% and 25.8%, respectively from 34.4% and 25.3%, respectively at December 31, 2005. Also during the first three months of 2006, real estate construction and land development loan balances as a percentage of total loans increased slightly to 17.6% from 17.5% at December 31, 2005. The increased percentages in real estate mortgage, construction and land development and consumer loan balances were offset with declines in the relative percentage of agricultural and commercial loan balances which were 9.5% and 12.1%, respectively at March 31, 2006, down from 9.7% and 13.1%, respectively at December 31, 2005.

Nonperforming assets. Nonperforming loans at March 31, 2006 were $1,240,000, a decrease of $421 thousand, or 25%, over the $1,661,000 balance at December 31, 2005. Nonperforming assets (which is comprised of nonperforming loans plus foreclosed real estate and vehicle holdings) at March 31, 2006 were $1,285,000, a decrease of $416 thousand, or 24%, over the $1,701,000 balance at December 31, 2005.

The decrease in both nonperforming loans and assets at March 31, 2006 from December 31, 2005 relates primarily to payments received on a significant nonperforming commercial loan during the first quarter of 2006. During the first quarter of 2006 this nonperforming loan’s outstanding balance was reduced by $387 thousand to $25 thousand at March 31, 2006 from the $412 thousand outstanding at December 31, 2005. Management does not expect to incur significant losses related to the final disposition of this nonperforming loan.

As a result of the above, nonperforming loans as a percentage of total loans decreased to 0.39% at March 31, 2006 down from 0.52% at December 31, 2005. In addition, nonperforming assets as a percentage of total assets also decreased to 0.27% at March 31, 2006 down from 0.36% at December 31, 2005.

Analysis of allowance for loan losses. Net charge-offs during the three months ended March 31, 2006 totaled $120 thousand, or 0.04% of total loans, compared to $98 thousand, or 0.03% of total loans, for the comparable period in 2005. Net charge-offs during the first three months of 2006 were comprised of $175 thousand of charge-offs offset by $55 thousand in recoveries, compared to $132 thousand of charge-offs offset by $34 thousand in recoveries for the same period in 2005. The allowance for loan losses was 1.06% of total loans as of March 31, 2006 up from 1.01% as of December 31, 2005. Based on an evaluation of the credit quality of the loan portfolio and delinquency trends and charge-offs, management believes the allowance for loan losses to be adequate. However, no prediction of the ultimate level of loans charged off in future years can be made with any certainty.

The following table provides certain information for the three-month period indicated with respect to the Company’s allowance for loan losses as well as charge-off and recovery activity, in thousands:

Investment securities. Investment securities decreased $8 million to $90 million at March 31, 2006, down from $98 million at December 31, 2005. The Company’s investment in both U.S. Treasury securities and

corporate bonds as a percentage of the total investment portfolio was 9% at March 31, 2006, down slightly from December 31, 2005, when both stood at 10%. The Company’s investment in obligations of U.S. agencies remained relatively unchanged at 66% of the investment portfolio at both March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005. Tax-exempt municipal obligation bonds increased to 16% of the investment portfolio at March 31, 2006, up from 14% at December 31, 2005. The decrease in the overall investment portfolio resulted from maturities, calls and pay downs that were used to provide funding for loan growth and liquidity through increases in the levels of Federal funds sold and additional unrealized losses on available for sale securities.

Premises and equipment. Premises and equipment increased $1.6 million, or 14%, to $13 million at March 31, 2006, from $11.4 million at December 31, 2005. This increase primarily relates to a $1.2 million purchase of land and a building in Quincy, California to be utilized as a future administrative office location and costs of $296 thousand for a new branch office currently under construction in Truckee, California and leasehold improvements of $186 thousand on a new limited service branch located in Bieber, California. As of March 31, 2006 land and construction costs for the Truckee branch have amounted to $2.1 million. Construction will continue on this new branch through the summer of 2006 with its completion date anticipated during the third quarter of 2006. The increases in premises noted above were somewhat offset by ongoing depreciation on existing premises and equipment.

Deposits. Total deposits were $424 million as of March 31, 2006, a slight decrease of $2.9 million, or 0.7%, from the December 31, 2005 balance of $427 million. The primary decline was in time deposits which decreased $5.9 million or 6%. The Company continues to manage the mix of its deposits consistent with its identity as a community bank serving the financial needs of its customers. Interest bearing checking deposits increased to 18% of total deposits at March 31, 2006, up from 16% of total deposits at December 31, 2005. Money market and savings deposits remained relatively unchanged at 30% of total deposits at both March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005. Non-interest bearing demand deposits decreased slightly to 30% at March 31, 2006 down from 31% at December 31, 2005. Time deposits decreased to 22% of total deposits as of March 31, 2006 down from 23% as of December 31, 2005. The growth in Interest bearing checking deposits relates to the new Money Fund Plu$ checking account introduced in September 2005. This account is intended to pay rates comparable to those available on a typical brokerage account. Since its introduction, there has been significant growth in the total Money Fund Plu$ balances with an increase of $12.9 million in the first quarter of 2006 and balances at March 31, 2006 of $34.2 million.

CAPITAL RESOURCES

Shareholders’ equity as of March 31, 2006 increased $1.2 million, or 4%, to $32.3 million up from $31.1 million as of December 31, 2005. This increase was the result of earnings during the first quarter of 2006 of $1.2 million. Other changes affecting total shareholders’ equity to a lesser extent during the first quarter of 2006 included exercise of stock options, stock based compensation and increase in accumulated other comprehensive losses.

The Company and the Bank are subject to certain regulatory capital requirements administered by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). Failure to meet these minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary, actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Bank’s assets, liabilities and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Company’s and the Bank’s capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of total and Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets and of Tier 1 capital to average assets. Each of these components is defined in the regulations. Management believes that the Company met all its capital adequacy requirements and that the Bank met the requirements to be considered well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action as of March 31, 2006.

The following table presents the Company’s and the Bank’s capital ratios as of March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005, in thousands:

LIQUIDITY

The Company manages its liquidity to provide the ability to generate funds to support asset growth, meet deposit withdrawals (both anticipated and unanticipated), fund customers’ borrowing needs, satisfy maturity of short-term borrowings and maintain reserve requirements. The Company’s liquidity needs are managed using assets or liabilities, or both. On the asset side the Company maintains cash and due from banks along with an investment portfolio containing U.S. government securities and agency securities that are classified as available-for-sale. On the liability side, liquidity needs are managed by charging competitive offering rates on deposit products and the use of established lines of credit from correspondent financial institutions and the Federal Home Loan Bank.

The Company has unsecured short-term borrowing agreements with two of its correspondent banks in the amounts of $10 million and $5 million. In addition, the Company can borrow up to $73 million from the Federal Home Loan Bank secured by commercial and residential mortgage loans. During the first quarter of 2006, the Company did not borrow from the Federal Home Loan Bank or its correspondent banks.

Customer deposits are the Company’s primary source of funds. Those funds are held in various types of accounts with varying maturities. The Company does not accept brokered deposits. During the first quarter of 2006, deposits decreased $2.9 million, or 0.7%, from the December 31, 2005 balance of $427 million. The Company has historically experienced a seasonal trend in regards to deposits; whereas the majority of the Company’s annual deposit growth has historically occurred in the late spring, summer and fall months.

The Company’s available-for-sale securities portfolio, cash and due from banks and short-term borrowings from correspondent banks and the Federal Home Loan Bank serve as the primary sources of liquidity, providing adequate funding for loans during periods of high loan demand. During periods of decreased

lending activity, proceeds from the maturity or sale of investment securities, loan payments, and new deposits are invested in short-term earning assets, such as Federal funds sold and investment securities, to serve as a source of funding for future loan growth. Management believes that the Company’s available sources of funds, including short-term borrowings, will provide adequate liquidity for its operations in the foreseeable future.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market risk is the risk of loss in a financial instrument arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices such as interest rates, commodity prices and equity prices. As a financial institution, the Company’s market risk arises primarily from interest rate risk exposure. Fluctuation in interest rates will ultimately impact both the level of income and expense recorded on a large portion of the Company’s assets and liabilities, and the market value of all interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities, dependent upon the stated or estimated maturity date. Since virtually all of the Company’s interest earning assets and all of the Company’s interest bearing liabilities, with the exception of the junior subordinated debentures, are located at the Bank level, virtually all of the Company’s interest rate risk exposure lies at the Bank level. As a result, all significant interest rate risk management procedures are performed at the Bank level. Based upon the nature of its operations, the Bank is not subject to foreign currency exchange or commodity price risk. The Bank’s real estate loan portfolio, concentrated primarily within northeastern California, is subject to risks associated with the local economies.

The fundamental objective of the Bank’s management of its assets and liabilities is to maximize the economic value of the Company while maintaining adequate liquidity and an exposure to interest rate risk deemed by management to be acceptable. Management believes an acceptable degree of exposure to interest rate risk results from the management of assets and liabilities through maturities, pricing and mix to attempt to neutralize the potential impact of changes in market interest rates. The Bank’s profitability is dependent to a large extent upon its net interest income which is the difference between its interest income on interest-earning assets, such as loans and securities, and its interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities, such as deposits and borrowings. The Bank, like other financial institutions, is subject to interest rate risk to the degree that its interest-earning assets reprice differently than its interest-bearing liabilities. The Bank manages its mix of assets and liabilities with the goals of limiting its exposure to interest rate risk, ensuring adequate liquidity, and coordinating its sources and uses of funds.

The Bank seeks to control its interest rate risk exposure in a manner that will allow for adequate levels of earnings and capital over a range of possible interest rate environments. The Bank has adopted formal policies and practices to monitor and manage interest rate risk exposure. As part of this effort, the Bank measures interest rate risk utilizing an internal asset liability management system and employs independent third party reviews to confirm the reasonableness of the assumptions used to measure and report the Bank’s interest rate risk, enabling management to make any adjustments necessary.

Interest rate risk is managed by the Bank’s Asset Liability Committee (“ALCO”), which is comprised of members of senior management. The ALCO monitors interest rate risk by analyzing the potential impact on the net interest income from potential changes in interest rates and considers the impact of alternative strategies or changes in balance sheet structure. The ALCO manages the Bank’s balance sheet in part to maintain the potential impact on net interest income within acceptable ranges despite changes in interest rates. The Bank’s exposure to interest rate risk is reviewed on at least a quarterly basis by ALCO.

In management’s opinion there has not been a material change in the Company’s market risk or interest rate risk profile for the three months ended March 31, 2006 compared to December 31, 2005 as discussed in the Company’s 2005 annual report on Form 10-K.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, based on their evaluation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the Company’s fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2006 (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a—15(e), have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are adequate and effective for purposes of Rule 13a—15(e) in timely alerting them to material information relating to the Company required to be included in the Company’s filings with the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

There were no significant changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting or in other factors that could significantly affect internal controls that occurred during the Company’s fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2006.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
