EXPLANATORY NOTE
This Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-Q/A (this “Amendment”) amends our quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2008 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on
August 14, 2008 (the “Original Filing”). The Company has concluded, following a review of its loan portfolio where it determined that additional allowances for loan losses should be established, that the Original filing should no
longer be relied upon and should be restated. Accordingly, the Company has made appropriate revisions in Items 1, 2 and 4T of Part I to reflect this development. The Company has also amended Item 4 of Part II to reflect certain votes that were
cast in person at the Company’s 2008 Annual Meeting and not reported in the Original Filing.
This Amendment No. 1 amends and restates only the
information described above, and such amendments and restatements only reflect the changes described above. Except for the foregoing amended and restated information, this Amendment continues to describe conditions as of the date of the Original
Filing, and the disclosures contained herein have not been updated to reflect events, results or developments that have occurred after the Original Filing, or to modify or update those disclosures affected by subsequent events. Among other things,
forward-looking statements made in the Original Filing have not been revised to reflect events, results or developments that have occurred or facts that have become known to the Company after the date of the Original Filing (other than the
restatement), and such forward-looking statements should be read in their historical context. This Amendment should be read in conjunction with the Company’s filings made with the SEC subsequent to the Original Filing.

PIEDMONT COMMUNITY BANK GROUP, INC.
AND SUBSIDIARY
Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements
(unaudited)
Piedmont Community
Bank Group, Inc. (the “Company”) is a one-bank holding company with respect to its wholly-owned subsidiary bank, Piedmont Community Bank (the “Bank”). The Company was organized on April 26, 2006 and consummated the
acquisition of all of the outstanding common stock of the Bank in exchange for 1,358,968 shares of $5 par value common stock on February 7, 2007. In accounting for the transaction, the $5 par value common stock of the Bank became no par value
common stock of the holding company. The formation and reorganization was approved by the stockholders during the fourth quarter of 2006.
The Bank is a commercial bank headquartered in Gray, Jones County, Georgia. The Bank provides a full range of banking services in its primary market areas of Jones, Bibb, Monroe, Houston, Greene, Baldwin, Putnam and the surrounding
counties.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company are unaudited. Certain information and footnote disclosures
normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial
statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2007.
All
significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The financial information included herein reflects all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments), which are, in the opinion of management,
necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position and results of operations for the interim period ended June 30, 2008.
The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and income and expense amounts. Actual results could differ from
those estimates. The results of operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

Stock Compensation Plan
|
At June 30,
2008, the Company had a stock-based employee/director compensation plan which is more fully described in Note 1 of the consolidated financial statements in the Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2007. A total of
383,502 shares have been reserved under the Plan. As of June 30, 2008, the Company had 380,705 options outstanding.
The Company
recorded stock based compensation expense of $138,492 and $138,491 for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Income tax benefits recognized for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 was $13,960 and 13,960,
respectively.
At June 30, 2008, there was approximately $179,000 of unrecognized compensation cost related to stock-based payments,
which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 0.48 years.
No options have been granted or exercised in 2008. As of
June 30, 2008, 289,623 options were exercisable with a weighted-average exercise price of $11.67 per share.

Earnings Per Common Share
|
SFAS
No. 128,
Earnings Per Share
, establishes standards for computing and presenting basic and diluted earnings per share. In this regard, the Company is required to report earnings per common share with and without the dilutive effects of
potential common stock issuances from instruments such as options, convertible securities and warrants on the face of the statements of income. Earnings per common share are based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during
the period while the effects of potential common shares outstanding during the
-7-
period are included in diluted earnings per share. Additionally, the Company must reconcile the amounts used in the computation of both basic earnings per
share and diluted earnings per share.
Presented below is a summary of the components used to calculate basic and diluted earnings per
common share.

Fair Value Measurement
|
The Company adopted
the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 157 on January 1, 2008. In February 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued a FASB Staff Position (FSP) which permits delayed application of the
provisions of SFAS 157 to nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a nonrecurring basis to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. Since the Company
has elected to delay application of the provisions of SFAS 157 to nonfinancial
-8-
assets and liabilities in scope of this FSP, the information disclosed below does not consider the impact that SFAS 157 would have on such nonfinancial
assets and liabilities. The major categories of assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value for which the provisions of SFAS 157 have not been applied include nonfinancial long-lived assets measured at fair value for an
impairment assessment under SFAS 144.
SFAS 157 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to
transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. SFAS 157 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which
requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
|
|
|
|
|
Level 1
|
|
Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
|
|
|
|
|
Level 2
|
|
Directly or indirectly observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets: quoted prices for identical or similar assets or
liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (for example, interest rates and yield curves observable at commonly quoted intervals, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss
severities, credit risks, and default rates); or inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
|
|
|
|
|
Level 3
|
|
Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 assets and liabilities would include
financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.
|
A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the
lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis
are summarized below:

The valuation techniques used to measure fair value for the items in the table above are as
follows:
|
|
•
|
|
Securities available for sale – The fair value of securities available for sale equals quoted market prices, if available. If quoted market prices are not
available, fair value is determined using quoted market prices for similar securities. Level 1 securities include those traded on an active exchange, such as the New York Stock Exchange. Level 2 securities include mortgage-backed securities, other
pass-through securities and collateralized mortgage obligations of government sponsored entities (GSE’s) and private issuers and obligations of states and political subdivision.
|
Certain other assets are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. These adjustments to fair value usually result from application of lower of cost
or fair value accounting or write-downs of individual assets due to impairment. For assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis for the six months ended June 30, 2008 that were still held in the balance sheet at quarter end, the
following table provides the level of valuation assumptions used to determine each adjustment and the carrying value of the related individual assets at quarter end.

The valuation techniques used to measure fair value for the items in the table above are as follows:
|
|
•
|
|
Loans – Nonrecurring fair value adjustments to loans reflect full or partial write-downs that are based on the loan’s observable market price or current
appraised value of the collateral in accordance with SFAS 114,
Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan
. Since the market for impaired loans is not active, loans subjected to nonrecurring fair value adjustments based on the
loan’s observable market price are generally classified as Level 2. Loans subjected to nonrecurring fair value adjustments based on the current appraised value of the collateral may be classified as Level 2 or Level 3 depending on the type of
asset and the inputs to the valuation. When appraisals are used to determine impairment and these appraisals are based on a market approach incorporating a dollar-per-square-foot multiple, the related loans are classified as Level 2. If the
appraisals require significant adjustments to market-based valuation inputs or apply an income approach based on unobservable cash flows to measure fair value, the related loans subjected to nonrecurring fair value adjustments are typically
classified as Level 3 due to the fact that Level 3 inputs are significant to the fair value measurement.
|
|
|
•
|
|
Other real estate owned – these assets are reported at the lower of the loan carrying amount at foreclosure or fair value written down by estimated cost to
sale. Fair value is based on third party appraisals considering the assumptions in the valuation and are considered Level 2 or Level 3 inputs.

February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, which permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The objective
of SFAS No. 159 is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge
accounting provisions. SFAS No. 159 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years after November 15, 2007. This standard did not have an impact on the financial condition or results of operation of the Company.
As of August 1, 2008
the Company began selling up to 300,000 shares of its common stock for $10.00 per share. Initially, we are offering the shares to our existing shareholders, who for 30 days will have the opportunity to purchase a pro rata number of shares in this
offering based on their existing percentage ownership. Thereafter, we will offer any remaining shares to the general public. This offering will terminate November 29, 2008, or when all of the shares of common stock are sold, whichever occurs
first. At our discretion, we may extend the offering to a subsequent date that we determine at the time of the extension, but in no event beyond December 31, 2008.

Introduction
Through our bank subsidiary we perform banking services
customary for full service banks of similar size and character. We offer personal and business checking accounts, interest-bearing checking accounts, savings accounts and various types of certificates of deposit. We also offer commercial loans,
installment and other consumer loans, home equity loans, home equity lines of credit, construction loans and mortgage loans. In addition, we provide such services as official bank checks and traveler’s checks, direct deposit and United States
Savings Bonds. We provide other customary banking services including ATM services, safe deposit facilities, money transfers, and individual retirement accounts.
Overview
Our loan and deposit growth has continued into the second quarter of 2008. Our continued growth, however, may be tempered somewhat
if the economic slowdown that has affected certain larger metropolitan areas spreads further to our markets. So far, the real estate markets in the communities that we serve have shown only moderate signs of weakness. Real estate prices in our
market areas have declined only marginally, although sales volumes and new housing starts have slowed more significantly. In our own portfolio we have experienced an increase in other real estate owned, which consists of foreclosed properties, from
approximately $242,000 at December 31, 2007 to approximately $5.0 million at June 30, 2008. The majority of this net increase is attributable to two lending relationships. The number and amount of our delinquent loans greater than 30 days
dropped from 17 with an aggregate balance of approximately $2.8 million at December 31, 2007 to 8 with an aggregate balance of approximately $1.6 million at June 30, 2008. The decline, however, was caused by the fact that we foreclosed on
eight properties during the first quarter and ten properties during the second quarter, which explains the increase in other real estate. The increase in other real estate is partially attributable to the significant slowdown in residential real
estate sales. With the significant slowing of home and land sales, the prices of homes have declined and our customers who develop and sell residential real estate cannot service their loans because they are not generating revenue. Foreclosed
properties that secured construction loans represented 29% of other real estate at June 30, 2008. We also had one commercial real estate participation in other real estate which represented 52% of other real estate.
In addition to the trend of weakening real estate markets, we have been directly impacted by the interest rate reductions initiated by the Federal Reserve in response to
the broad market conditions. Because our loans generally reprice more quickly than our deposits, the declining interest rate environment has significantly compressed our net interest margin. In
-11-
fact, our net interest income for the first six months of 2008, which was approximately $2.3 million, was down $356,000 from the first six months of 2007
despite the fact that our average loans during the period increased from $134 million to $188 million. After deducting higher other expenses that are attributable to our growth, we experienced a net loss of $975,000 for the first six months of 2008
as compared to net income of approximately $291,000 for the first six months of 2007.
Critical Accounting Policies
We have adopted various accounting policies which govern the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America in the preparation of
our consolidated financial statements. Our significant accounting policies are described in the footnotes to the consolidated financial statements at December 31, 2007 as filed in our annual report on Form 10-KSB.
Certain accounting policies involve significant judgments and assumptions by us which have a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities. We
consider these accounting policies to be critical accounting policies. The judgments and assumptions we use are based on historical experience and other factors, which we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Because of the nature of the
judgments and assumptions we make, actual results could differ from these judgments and estimates which could have a material impact on our carrying values of assets and liabilities and our results of operations.
We believe the allowance for loan losses is a critical accounting policy that requires the most significant judgments and estimates used in preparation of our
consolidated financial statements. Refer to the portion of this discussion that addresses asset quality for a description of our processes and methodology for determining our allowance for loan losses.
Asset Quality
A major key to long-term earnings growth is the
maintenance of a high-quality loan portfolio. Our directive in this regard is carried out through our policies and procedures for extending credit to our customers. The goal of these policies and procedures is to provide a sound basis for new credit
extensions and an early recognition of problem assets to allow the most flexibility in their timely disposition. Additions to the allowance for loan losses are made periodically to maintain the allowance at an appropriate level based upon
management’s analysis of potential risk in the loan portfolio.
Our management assesses the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses quarterly. This
assessment includes procedures to estimate the allowance and test the adequacy and appropriateness of the resulting balance. The allowance for loan loss consists of two components: (1) a specific amount representative of identified credit
exposures that are readily predictable by the current performance of the borrower and underlying collateral; and (2) a general amount based upon historical data that is then adjusted for various stress factors representative of various economic
factors and characteristics of the loan portfolio.
The allowance for loan losses increased by $1,083,000 and $1,178,000 for the second quarter and the
first six months of 2008 as compared to an increase of $181,000 and $318,000 for the first quarter and the first six months of 2007. Provisions for loan losses of $1,892,500 for the six month period ended June 30, 2008 were made primarily due
to loan growth, increased charge-offs and our assessment of inherent risk in the loan portfolio. These provisions were offset by $715,000 which was charged-off to the reserve for adjustments to collateral values at foreclosure and for reversal of
prior year interest on loans placed in non-accrual status. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans was 1.55% and 1.04% at June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, respectively. Based upon our evaluation of the loan
portfolio, we believe the allowance for loan losses to be adequate to absorb losses on existing loans that may become uncollectible.
The allowance for
loan losses is established and adjusted through a provision for loan losses charged to expense. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the collectability of the principal is unlikely. Subsequent recoveries are
credited to the allowance.
The allowance is an amount that management believes will be adequate to absorb estimated losses relating to specifically
identified loans, as well as probable credit losses inherent in the balance of the loan portfolio, based on an evaluation of the collectability of existing loans and prior loss experience. This evaluation also takes into consideration such factors
as changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, overall portfolio quality, review of specific problem loans, concentration and current economic conditions that may affect the borrower’s ability to pay. This evaluation does not
include the effects of expected losses on specific loans or groups of loans that are related to future events or expected changes in economic conditions. While management uses the best information available to make its evaluation, future adjustments
to the allowance may be necessary if there are significant changes in economic conditions. In addition, regulatory agencies, as
-12-
an integral part of their examination process, periodically review our allowance for loan losses, and may require us to make additions to the allowance based
on their judgment about information available to them at the time of their examinations.
The allowance consists of specific, general and unallocated
components. The specific component relates to loans that are identified as impaired. The general component covers non-impaired loans and is based on historical loss experience adjusted for qualitative factors. An unallocated component is maintained
to cover uncertainties that could affect management’s estimate of probable losses. The unallocated component of the allowance reflects the margin of imprecision inherent in the underlying assumptions used in the methodologies for estimating
specific and general losses in the portfolio.

Potential problem loans are defined as loans about which we have serious doubts as to the ability of the borrower
to comply with the present loan repayment terms and which may cause the loan to be placed on nonaccrual status, to become past due more than ninety days, or to be restructured.
It is our policy to discontinue the accrual of interest income when, in the opinion of management, collection of interest becomes doubtful. The collection of interest becomes doubtful when there is a significant
deterioration in the financial condition of the borrower and full repayment of principal and interest is not expected unless the loan is both well-secured and in the process of collection.
Loans classified for regulatory purposes as loss, doubtful, substandard, or special mention that have not been included in the table above do not represent or result
from trends or uncertainties that management expects will materially impact future operating results, liquidity, or capital resources. These classified loans do not represent material credits about which we are aware of any information that causes
us to have serious doubts as to the ability of such borrowers to comply with the loan repayment terms.

As a result of the changes in our real estate markets since last year, we incurred net charge-off of $715,000 during the
six month period ended June 30, 2008. The increase in charge-off in 2008 resulted from the substantial increase in our level of nonperforming assets.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity management involves the matching of the cash flow requirements of customers, who may be either
depositors desiring to withdraw funds or borrowers needing assurance that sufficient funds will be available to meet their credit needs, and our ability to meet those needs. We strive to maintain an adequate liquidity position by managing the
balances and maturities of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities so that the balance we have in short-term investments at any given time will adequately cover any reasonably anticipated immediate need for funds. Additionally, we
maintain relationships with correspondent banks, which could provide us funds on short notice, if needed.
Our liquidity and capital resources are
monitored daily by management and on a periodic basis by state and federal regulatory authorities. As determined under guidelines established by these regulatory authorities, our liquidity ratio at June 30, 2008 was considered satisfactory. At
that date, our short-term investments and available Federal Funding were adequate to cover any reasonably anticipated immediate need for funds. At June 30, 2008, we had unused available Federal Fund lines of $10,421,400 and unused Federal Home
Loan Bank borrowing capacity of approximately $417,000.
As of June 30, 2008 we had a decreased liquidity position compared to year end 2007 as total
federal funds sold amounted to $3 million, representing 1.30% of total assets as compared to $6 million or 2.87% as of December 31, 2007. Investment securities available-for-sale amounted to $10.2 million and interest-bearing deposits in banks
amounted to $3.3 million, representing 4.31% and 1.41% of total assets, respectively. These securities provide a secondary source of liquidity since they can be converted into cash in a timely manner.
Our ability to maintain and expand our deposit base and borrowing capabilities is a source of liquidity. For the six months ended June 30, 2008, total deposits
increased from $180.4 million at December 31, 2007 to $197.2 million at June 30, 2008. Of this total, however, approximately $120.4 million, or 61%, represent time deposits that are scheduled to mature within one year. Furthermore, we
intend to continue to rely heavily on short-term time deposits as a primary source of funding for the foreseeable future. If we are unable to offer a competitive rate as these deposits mature, we could lose a substantial amount of deposits within a
short period of time, which would strain our liquidity. While we consider this scenario to be unlikely, our net interest income and profitability would be negatively affected if we have to increase rates to maintain deposits.
Management is committed to maintaining capital at a level sufficient to protect depositors, provide for reasonable growth, and fully comply with all regulatory
requirements. Our capital ratios have declined over the last couple of years largely because of our rapid growth and more recently because of losses that we have sustained. We recently commenced an offering for the sale of up to $3 million in common
stock pursuant to a registration statement that was declared effective by the SEC on July 25, 2008. We expect that our capital ratios will improve as proceeds from this offering are collected and will then decline as these proceeds are invested
in loans or used to expand our branch network. If we are successful in implementing our expansion program, we expect our profitability to eventually increase, which would improve our capital position. The table below illustrates our bank’s
regulatory capital ratios at June 30, 2008.

During the first quarter of 2008, the holding company obtained a $5,000,000 revolving line of credit from Nexity
Bank for the purpose of capital injection into the Bank as needed. Through June 30, 2008, we have borrowed approximately $3,412,000 on the line. Therefore, we have additional borrowing capacity on the line of approximately $1,588,000.

Off-Balance Sheet Risk
We are a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of our customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of
credit. Such commitments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheets.
Our exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. We use
the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as we do for on-balance sheet instruments. A summary of our commitments is as follows:

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any
condition established in the contract. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed
necessary by us upon extension of credit, is based on our credit evaluation of the customer.
Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued
by us to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Those letters of credit are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as
that involved in extending loans to customers. Collateral is required in instances which we deem necessary.
Financial Condition
Our total assets grew by 10.81% for the first six months of 2008. Deposit growth of $16.8 million and additional FHLB borrowings of $1.8 million were used to fund net
loan growth of almost $15.5 million. Loan demand continues to be relatively strong in our primary market areas of Jones, Baldwin, Bibb, Monroe, Houston, Greene and Putnam counties. Our loan to deposit ratio has remained the same at December 31,
2007 and June 30, 2008 at 98.7%. Shareholders’ equity has decreased by approximately $1,011,000 due to net losses of $975,000, decrease in unrealized gains on investment securities of $174,000 net of recognition of stock based employee
compensation cost of $138,000.
Results of Operations For The Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2008 and 2007
Interest Income and Interest Expense
Our profitability is determined
by our ability to effectively manage interest income and expense, to minimize loan and security losses, to generate noninterest income, and to control operating expenses. Because interest rates are determined by market forces and economic
conditions beyond our control, our ability to generate net interest income depends upon our ability to obtain an adequate net interest spread between the rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities and the rate earned on interest-earning assets. Our
net interest margin was 2.22% for the six months ended June 30, 2008, compared to 3.49% for the same period in 2007, a decrease of 127 basis points. The decrease was primarily caused by the interest rate reductions initiated by the Federal
Reserve over the past twelve months and the fact that our loans generally reprice more quickly than our deposits. Our average rate earned on interest-earning assets decreased to 6.38% for the first six months of 2008 as compared to 8.22% for the
first six months of 2007, a decrease of 184 basis points. Our average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities decreased to 4.31% for the first six months of 2008 as compared to 5.21% for the first six months of 2007, a decrease of only 90 basis
points. Despite average loan growth of $54 million from June 30, 2007 to June 30, 2008, net interest income decreased slightly. We continue to experience growth in loans and deposits while maintaining our competitive pricing.
The following tables set forth the amount of our interest income and interest expense for each category of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities
and the average interest rate for total interest-earning assets and total interest-bearing liabilities, net interest spread and net yield on average interest-earning assets.

Interest and fees on loans include $105,000 and $148,000 of loan fee income for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Interest income recognized on
nonaccrual loans during 2008 and 2007 was insignificant.
|
Provisions for Loan Losses
Our provision for loan losses was $1,618,000 for the second quarter of 2008 as compared to $181,000 for the same period in 2007. Our allowance for loan losses increased
$1,178,000 from $1,849,000 as of December 31, 2007 to $3,027,000 as of June 30, 2008. The increase is due to the provisions of $1,892,500 recorded in the first six months of 2008 as a result of the increase in loan volume, increased net
charged-offs, and increases in problem loans as compared to December 31, 2007.
Noninterest Income
Non-interest income consists of service charges on deposit accounts, mortgage origination income, cash surrender value of life insurance and other miscellaneous income.
We have a mortgage origination department that generates fee income from the origination and processing of conventional residential mortgages. These loans are funded by investors in the secondary market and therefore are never recorded on our books.
We record fee income on an accrual basis in the month in which the income is earned.
Noninterest income increased by approximately $64,000 and $207,000
for the second quarter and the first six months of 2008 as compared to the corresponding periods in 2007. Increases in gains on foreclosure of $100,000, bank owned life insurance income of $85,000 and gains on sale of securities of $64,000 account
for the first six months of 2008’s increase in noninterest income, offset by a decrease of $53,000 in mortgage origination income. The drop in mortgage origination income reflected an industry wide decline in mortgage origination activity.
Service charges on deposit accounts increased from $52,000 during the first half of 2007 to $81,000 during the first half of 2008. This increase is attributable to our overall growth in deposits and branch expansion.
Noninterest Expenses
Noninterest expenses increased by approximately
$143,000 or 14.32% for the three months ended June 30, 2008 compared to the same period in 2007. The increase is due largely to an increase in salaries and employee benefits expense of $45,000 associated with additions to staff due to our
growth and the opening of our Bass Road, Forsyth Road and Lake Oconee locations and normal increases in salaries and benefits. Net equipment and occupancy expenses and other operating expense increased $2,000 and $96,000, respectively,
comparing the second quarter of 2008 to the second quarter of 2007, primarily due to our opening of new branches. Noninterest expenses increased $370,000 or 19.11% for the six months ended June 30, 2008 compared to the same period in 2007.
The increase consists of increases in salaries and employee benefits expense of $194,000, net occupancy and equipments expenses of $16,000 and other operating expenses of $160,000. The salary and
-16-
employee benefit increases were due to an increase in the number of full time equivalent employees which increased from 36 at June 30, 2007 to 44 at
June 30, 2008, in addition to normal increases in salaries and benefits. The increased in other operating expenses were primarily attributable to growth and expenses related to the opening of our new branches.
Income Taxes
We have recorded income tax benefits of $588,000 and
$591,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008. This represents 36.9% and 37.8% of net loss before income tax benefits for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008. The decrease in our effective tax rate as compared to the
same periods in 2007 is primarily due to the nontaxable income related to bank owned life insurance and our net losses incurred for the periods. The comparable effective tax rates for the corresponding periods in 2007 were 37.6% and 44.7%, which
included an adjustment of $32,945 related to the prior year.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and
Procedures
As of June 30, 2008, the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A, and considering the subsequent restatement,
an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13(a)-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
“Exchange Act”
))
was performed under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer. Based on that evaluation and the identification of the material weaknesses in the
Company’s internal control over financial reporting as described below under
“Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting,”
the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the
Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective in timely alerting them to material information relating to the Company required to be included in the Company’s Exchange Act filings.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
The Company
reports the identification of material weaknesses in certain lending policies and risk management functions including weaknesses in the systems and processes that are used to identify, administer and classify problem credits. These weaknesses,
coupled with rapid growth and the recent slowdown in real estate acquisition, development, and construction activity, where our loan portfolio is heavily concentrated, resulted in increased problem credits and substantial increases to the allowance
for loan losses. The Company has taken the following steps to improve its systems:
|
•
|
|
The Company has revised our loan policy to incorporate revisions in loan classification criteria to be reflective of additional risk during the current economic
conditions and to more closely align our definitions with regulatory guidance.
|
|
•
|
|
The Company has revised its general loan loss reserve methodology to reflect the increased risk related to the number of loans now classified as substandard
according to the newly applied criteria, as well as the heavy concentration in construction and acquisition and development loans.
|
|
•
|
|
The Company is actively pursuing alternatives to dispose of nonperforming and impaired assets, reduce large loan concentrations, and otherwise strengthen borrowing
relationships.
|
These actions commenced during the latter part of the third quarter of 2008. We anticipate additional ongoing
improvements to occur in the fourth quarter and beyond that will continue to strengthen our internal controls related to the weaknesses identified above.
Except as discussed above, there were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2008, including the subsequent restatement, that have materially affected,
or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
The design of any system of controls and
procedures is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events. There can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.
