Unaudited Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

September 30, 2007

(Dollars in thousands except for share and per share amounts)

Note 1 – Basis of Presentation & Accounting Policies

TIB Financial Corp. is a financial holding company headquartered in Naples, Florida.  TIB Financial Corp. is a multi-bank holding company which owns and operates TIB Bank and The Bank of Venice, with a total of nineteen banking offices in Florida that are located in Monroe, Miami-Dade, Collier, Lee, Highlands and Sarasota counties.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements for TIB Financial Corp. (the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statement presentation.  For further information and an additional description of the Company’s accounting policies, refer to the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.

The consolidated statements include the accounts of TIB Financial Corp. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, TIB Bank and The Bank of Venice (subsequent to its acquisition on April 30, 2007), collectively known as the Company.  All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  Certain amounts previously reported on have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

As used in this document, the terms “we,” “us,” “our,” “TIB Financial,” and “Company” mean TIB Financial Corp. and its subsidiaries (unless the context indicates another meaning) and the term “Banks” means TIB Bank and The Bank of Venice.

Critical Accounting Policies

The accounting and reporting policies of the Company are in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted within the United States of America and conform to general practices within the banking industry.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses is a valuation allowance for probable incurred credit losses, which is increased by the provision for loan losses and decreased by charge-offs less recoveries.  Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectiblity of a loan balance is confirmed.  Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance.  Management estimates the allowance balance required based on factors including past loan loss experience, the nature and volume of the portfolio, information about specific borrower situations and estimated collateral values, economic conditions, and other factors.  Allocations of the allowance may be made for specific loans, but the entire allowance is available for any loan that, in management’s judgment, should be charged off.

The allowance consists of specific and general components.  The specific component relates to loans that are individually classified as impaired or loans otherwise classified as special mention, substandard or doubtful.  The general component covers non-classified loans and is based on historical loss experience adjusted for current factors.

A loan is considered impaired when it is probable that not all principal and interest amounts will be collected according to the loan contract.  Individual commercial, commercial real estate and residential real estate loans exceeding certain size thresholds established by management are individually evaluated for impairment.  If a loan is considered to be impaired, a portion of the allowance is allocated so that the loan is reported net, at the present value of estimated future cash flows using the loan’s existing rate or at the fair value of collateral if repayment is expected solely from the collateral.  Large groups of smaller balance homogeneous loans, such as consumer and indirect auto dealer loans, are collectively evaluated for impairment, and accordingly, they are not separately identified for impairment disclosures.

Earnings Per Common Share

Basic earnings per share is net income divided by the weighted average number of common shares and vested restricted shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share includes the dilutive effect of additional potential common shares issuable under stock options and the dilutive effect of unvested restricted shares computed using the treasury stock method.

Additional information with regard to the Company’s methodology and reporting of the allowance for loan losses and earnings per common share is included in the 2006 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Acquisitions

The Company accounts for its business combinations based on the purchase method of accounting. The purchase method of accounting requires the Company to determine the fair value of the tangible net assets and identifiable intangible assets acquired. The fair values are based on available information and current economic conditions at the date of acquisition. The fair values may be obtained from independent appraisers, discounted cash flow present value techniques, management valuation models, quoted prices on national markets or quoted market prices from brokers. These fair value estimates will affect future earnings through the disposition or amortization of the underlying assets and liabilities. While management believes the sources utilized to arrive at the fair value estimates are reliable, different sources or methods could have yielded different fair value estimates. Such different fair value estimates could affect future earnings through different values being utilized for the disposition or amortization of the underlying assets and liabilities acquired.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The Company adopted the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (“FIN 48”), on January 1, 2007.  The adoption of FIN 48 had no affect on the Company’s financial statements. The Company has no material unrecognized tax benefits and does not anticipate any increase in unrecognized benefits during 2007 relative to any tax positions taken prior to January 1, 2007.  Should the accrual of any interest or penalties relative to unrecognized tax benefits be necessary, it is the Company’s policy to record such accruals in its income taxes accounts; no such accruals exist as of January 1, 2007.  The Company and its subsidiaries file a consolidated U.S. federal income tax return and a consolidated income tax return in the state of Florida.  These returns are subject to examination by taxing authorities for all years after 2003.

In September 2006, FASB issued Statement No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“FAS 157”). FAS 157 provides guidance for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities. FAS 157 will apply whenever another standard requires (or permits) assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value. FAS 157 provides guidance about the extent to which companies measure assets and liabilities at fair value, the information used to measure fair value and the effect that fair value measurements have on earnings. FAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Management has not yet completed its evaluation of the impact of FAS 157.

In September 2006, the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force finalized Issue No. 06-4, “Accounting for Deferred Compensation and Postretirement Benefit Aspects of Endorsement Split-Dollar Life Insurance Arrangements”.  This issue requires that a liability be recorded during the service period when a split-dollar life insurance agreement continues after participants’ employment or retirement.  The required accrued liability will be based on either the post-employment benefit cost for the continuing life insurance or based on the future death benefit depending on the contractual terms of the underlying agreement.  This issue is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007.  Management has not yet completed its evaluation of the impact of adoption of EITF 06-4 but does not expect it to have a material impact on the financial condition, results of operations, or liquidity of the Company.

(Dollars in thousands except for share and per share amounts)

In September 2006, the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force finalized Issue No. 06-5, “Accounting for Purchases of Life Insurance - Determining the Amount That Could Be Realized in Accordance with FASB Technical Bulletin No. 85-4 (Accounting for Purchases of Life Insurance)”. This issue requires that a policyholder consider contractual terms of a life insurance policy in determining the amount that could be realized under the insurance contract.  It also requires that if the contract provides for a greater surrender value if all individual policies in a group are surrendered at the same time, that the surrender value be determined based on the assumption that policies will be surrendered on an individual basis.  Lastly, the issue discusses whether the cash surrender value should be discounted when the policyholder is contractually limited in its ability to surrender a policy.  This issue is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006.  The adoption of this issue on January 1, 2007, as required, did not have a material impact on the financial condition, results of operations, or liquidity of the Company.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities”. This Statement permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The objective 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. This Statement is expected to expand the use of fair value measurement, which is consistent with the Board’s long-term measurement objectives for accounting for financial instruments. This Statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. Management has not yet completed its evaluation of the impact of the adoption of this Statement.

Note 6 – Capital Adequacy

The Company (on a consolidated basis) and the Banks are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by federal and state banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements result in certain discretionary actions by regulators that could have an effect on the Company’s operations. The regulations require the Company and the Banks to meet specific capital adequacy guidelines that involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Company’s capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.

To be considered well capitalized and adequately capitalized (as defined) under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Banks must maintain minimum Tier 1 leverage, Tier 1 risk-based, and total risk-based ratios. These minimum ratios along with the actual ratios for the Company and the Banks as of September 30, 2007 and for the Company and TIB Bank as of December 31, 2006, are presented in the following table.

	Well Capitalized Requirement			Adequately Capitalized Requirement			September 30, 2007 Actual			December 31, 2006 Actual

Note 7. – Acquisition

The Company completed the acquisition of The Bank of Venice, a Florida chartered commercial bank, on April 30, 2007 in exchange for consideration consisting of 944,400 shares of the Company’s common stock valued at approximately $13,628, cash of $568 and stock options valued at $364. The total purchase price, which includes certain direct acquisition costs of $192, totaled $14,752. Under the purchase method of accounting, the assets and liabilities of The Bank of Venice were recorded at their respective estimated fair values as of April 30, 2007 and are included in the accompanying balance sheet as of September 30, 2007. Purchase accounting adjustments will be amortized or accreted into income over the estimated lives of the related assets and liabilities. The Company is currently in the process of refining its estimates of the fair values of intangible assets acquired. Currently, goodwill and other intangible assets approximate $6,744.

The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the date of acquisition:

Cash and cash equivalents	$	10,176

Item 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Forward-looking Statements

Certain of the matters discussed under the caption "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and elsewhere in this Form 10-Q may constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act and as such may involve known and unknown risk, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of TIB Financial Corp. (the "Company") to be materially different from future results described in such forward-looking statements. Actual results may differ materially from the results anticipated in these forward-looking statements due to a variety of factors, including, without limitation:  the effects of future economic conditions; governmental monetary and fiscal policies, as well as legislative and regulatory changes; the risks of changes in interest rates on the level and composition of deposits, loan demand, and the values of loan collateral, and interest rate risks; the effects of competition from other commercial banks, thrifts, consumer finance companies, and other financial institutions operating in the Company's market area and elsewhere.  All forward-looking statements attributable to the Company are expressly qualified in their entirety by these cautionary statements.  The Company disclaims any intent or obligation to update these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

The following discussion addresses the factors that have affected the financial condition and results of operations of the Company as reflected in the unaudited consolidated statement of condition as of September 30, 2007, and statement of income for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2007.  Operating results for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2007 are not necessarily indicative of trends or results to be expected for the year ended December 31, 2007.

Quarterly Summary

For the third quarter of 2007, net income was $494,000 and diluted earnings per share were $0.04 compared to $2.45 million and $0.21 in the prior year.  Our third quarter 2007 net income from continuing operations was $494,000 compared to $2.44 million in the prior year.  On a per diluted share basis, earnings from continuing operations were $0.04 for the third quarter of 2007 as compared to $0.21 for the third quarter of 2006.

Our results of operations during the third quarter of 2007 include the operations of The Bank of Venice subsequent to its acquisition on April 30, 2007. In connection with the acquisition, TIB Financial issued total consideration of approximately $14.75 million consisting of 944,400 shares of common stock, $568,000 of cash and 82,750 stock options in exchange for all of the outstanding common shares and stock options of The Bank of Venice.

The decrease in net income from continuing operations for the third quarter of 2007 over the respective prior-year period resulted primarily from an increased provision for loan losses, increased operating expenses and lower net interest income.   The net interest margin continues to be impacted by the challenging interest rate environment and highly competitive deposit pricing and a higher level of non-performing loans.  The tax equivalent net interest margin was 3.52% for the three months ended September 30, 2007 and contracted in comparison with the 3.73% net interest margin reported during the second quarter of 2007.

The Company continued its investment in growth and expansion, which, combined with increased operating costs, resulted in a 15% increase in non-interest expense for the third quarter of 2007 to $10.36 million compared to $9.00 million for the third quarter of 2006. The increase includes $663,000 of operating costs from The Bank of Venice. Compared to the previous quarter and exclusive of $401,000 of operating costs associated with The Bank of Venice, non-interest expense declined slightly.

Total assets increased to $1.40 billion as of September 30, 2007, representing 6% asset growth from December 31, 2006 and 11% asset growth from $1.26 billion as of September 30, 2006. Total loans increased 4% compared to $1.06 billion at December 31, 2006 and total deposits of $1.02 billion as of September 30, 2007 represent a decrease of $10.0 million from December 31, 2006.  As of September 30, 2007, the effect of the acquisition of The Bank of Venice increased total assets by $74.7 million, total loans by $56.8 million and total deposits by $53.8 million.

As of September 30, 2007, non-performing loans were $16.57 million, or 1.5% of loans.  The allowance for loan losses increased to $11.61 million, or 1.05% of total loans, reflecting the excess of our provision for loan losses over net charge-offs for the period.  Net charge-offs during the quarter represented 0.26% of average loans, comparable to 0.12% for the third quarter of last year.

15

Three Months Ended September 30, 2007 and 2006:

Results of Operations

For the third quarter of 2007, net income and income from continuing operations was $494,000 compared to $2.45 million and $2.44 million, respectively, in the previous year’s quarter.  Basic and diluted earnings per share from net income and continuing operations were $0.04 in the third quarter of 2007 and $0.21 in the third quarter of 2006.

Annualized return on average assets was 0.14% and 0.79% for the third quarter of 2007 and 2006, respectively, while the annualized return on average shareholders’ equity was 1.93% and 11.77% for the same periods.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income represents the amount by which interest income on interest-earning assets exceeds interest expense incurred on interest-bearing liabilities.  Net interest income is the largest component of our income, and is affected by the interest rate environment and the volume and the composition of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities.  Our interest-earning assets include loans, federal funds sold and securities purchased under agreements to resell, interest-bearing deposits in other banks and investment securities.  Our interest-bearing liabilities include deposits, federal funds purchased, notes payable related to Company shares repurchased, subordinated debentures, advances from the FHLB and other short term borrowings.

Net interest income was approximately $11.3 million in the three months ended September 30, 2007, a decline from the $11.9 million reported for the same period last year. Net interest income of The Bank of Venice represented approximately $668,000 of the net interest income reported.  The $1.26 million increase in interest and dividend income from the third quarter of 2007 over the third quarter of 2006 was mainly attributable to increased loan balances.  Offsetting this increase were increases in the interest cost of transaction accounts and time deposits due to increases in these balances and higher interest cost of these deposits.  Additional funding from short-term borrowings and FHLB advances increased interest expense by $751,000.

Many of the Banks’ loans are indexed to the prime rate.  The prime rate has remained level from the beginning of the third quarter of 2006 until mid-September 2007.  The average yield of the loan portfolio in the third quarter of 2007 decreased 39 basis points to 7.67% from 8.06% in the comparative period in 2006, primarily due to the increase in non-performing loans and the non-recognition of interest income on these loans. The average yield on interest-earning assets for the third quarter of 2007 was 7.33% which was a 37 basis point decrease compared to the 7.70% yield earned during the third quarter of 2006. The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased 18 basis points from 4.30% in the third quarter of 2006 to 4.48% in the comparable period in 2007. The average cost of interest-bearing deposits and all interest-bearing liabilities reflect in part the lag effect of the increase in short-term market interest rates prior to the recent wave of interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve and the change in the funding mix for the third quarter of 2007 as compared to the same quarter in 2006.  As a result of these changes, our tax equivalent net interest margin contracted 59 basis points to 3.52% from 4.11% in the third quarter of 2006. Additionally, the impact of the increase in nonaccrual loans during the quarter was a decrease in the margin of approximately 0.13%.

In the current interest rate and economic environment we believe that our interest margin may contract further and our net interest income may also decline. We are experiencing a slow down in economic activity in our markets which has resulted in a lower level of new loan originations and fundings during the first nine months of the year.  The predominant driver in the change in net interest income is and will continue to be the relative growth of our loans.  Although the timing and possible effects of future changes in interest rates could be significant, we expect any such impact to continue to be less in extent than the relative impact of growth of earning assets. Our net interest margin and net interest income are also affected by competition for deposits in our markets and the national economy as a whole. Higher levels of competition for deposits generally result in higher interest rates paid to attract and retain deposits.

16

Provision for Loan Losses

The provision for loan losses increased 256% to $2.4 million in the third quarter of 2007 compared to $670,000 in the comparable prior year period. Due to the weakening economic environment, we increased economic risk factors employed in estimating the allowance during the second quarter of 2006 and have maintained these higher factors since that period. The higher provision for loan losses in 2007 was primarily attributable to the continued contraction of residential real estate activity and the ripple effect on our local economies, an increase in our nonperforming loans and delinquencies and higher levels of net charge-offs.  Accordingly, during the third quarter of 2007, we elevated certain quantitative and qualitative factors used in estimating our allowance for loan losses. On a consolidated basis, total loans outstanding increased $18.4 million, or 2%, during the third quarter of 2007, as compared to an increase of $35.0 million, or 3%, during the third quarter of 2006.  Net Charge-offs, relating primarily to the indirect auto dealer loan portfolio in both periods, were $721,000, or 0.26% of average loans on an annualized basis, during the three months ended September 30, 2007, compared to $306,000, or 0.12% of average loans on an annualized basis, for the same period in 2006.

Management continuously monitors and actively manages the credit quality of the loan portfolio and will continue to recognize the provision required to maintain the allowance for loan losses at an appropriate level. Due to primarily slower residential real estate sales and development activity in our markets and the ripple effect on our local economies, our customers are exhibiting increasing difficulty in timely payment of their loan obligations. We believe that this trend will continue in the near term. Consequently, we anticipate higher levels of delinquent and nonperforming loans, which may require higher provisions for loan losses, higher charge-offs and higher collection related expenses in future periods.

Non-interest Income

Non-interest income for the third quarter of 2007 was $2.14 million.  This represented a 32% increase over the comparable prior year quarter which totaled $1.63 million.  The increase was primarily attributable to a $702,000 gain recognized during the third quarter from the disposition of an office building previously used in our operations. Non-interest income of The Bank of Venice represented approximately $26,000 of the increased service charges and mortgage origination fees.

Non-interest Expense

Non-interest expense for the third quarter of 2007 was $10.36 million.  This represented a 15% increase over the prior year period which totaled $9.0 million. This increase included approximately $663,000, resulting from the operations of The Bank of Venice. The overall increase reflected increased operating costs along with our continued investments in people, systems and facilities which provide the platform for future asset, deposit and revenue growth. The markets we operate in are highly competitive in all regards and our continued success requires continual investment in quality personnel, facilities, technology and infrastructure to provide competitive products and services.

The $637,000 increase in salary and employee benefits costs in the third quarter of 2007 relative to the third quarter of 2006 resulted primarily from the following three major factors. First, annual salary increases to retain and provide incentives for employees account for approximately $76,000 of the increase. Increased insurance, benefits and payroll related costs led to an additional $87,000 increase. Our lower level of loan originations during the period resulted in $138,000 of lower salary and benefit cost deferrals. Additionally, the operations of The Bank of Venice represent approximately $352,000 of the increase in this caption for the third quarter of 2007.

The $496,000 increase in occupancy expense resulted from several categories of expense. The most significant were: 1) approximately $50,000 in additional building depreciation due primarily to the occupancy of our new high profile Naples Boulevard branch and office space location in Naples Florida, 2) increased property insurance costs of approximately $105,000 due to higher insurance premiums and increased levels of coverage; 3) increased communications costs along with additional equipment depreciation costs of $98,000; 4) and increased net facility rent expense of $53,000. Finally, the operations of The Bank of Venice added approximately $128,000 of occupancy related costs to the operations of the consolidated entity for the quarter.

The $231,000 increase in other expense resulted primarily from $183,000 of operating expenses resulting from the acquisition of The Bank of Venice. Otherwise, increased FDIC and State assessments of approximately $112,000 due to higher deposit insurance premiums were partially offset by declines in other operating expense categories.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2007 and 2006:

Results of Operations

For the first nine months of 2007, net income and income from continuing operations was $4.08 million compared to $7.31 million and $7.13 million respectively in the comparable prior year period.  Basic and diluted earnings per share were $0.33 in the first nine months of 2007.  In the first nine months of 2006 basic and diluted earnings per share from net income were $0.63 and $0.62, respectively, while basic and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations were $0.61 and $0.60, respectively.

Annualized return on average assets was 0.40% for the first nine months of 2007 compared to 0.80% annualized return on average assets from continuing operations for the first nine months of 2006, while the annualized return on average shareholders’ equity was 5.72% and 11.87% for the same periods.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income was approximately $34.7 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2007, a 2% decrease from $35.3 reported for the same period last year. Net interest income of The Bank of Venice, subsequent to its acquisition on April 30, 2007, represented approximately $1.06 million of the net interest income reported.  The $8.9 million increase in interest and dividend income from the first nine months of 2007 over the comparable period of 2006 was mainly attributable to increased loans.  Offsetting this increase were increases in the interest cost of transaction accounts of $2.9 million and time deposits of $2.5 million. Additional funding from short-term borrowings and FHLB advances also increased interest expense by $3.2 million.

Many of the Banks’ loans are indexed to the prime rate.  The higher level of the prime rate in the first nine months of 2007 compared to the comparative period in 2006 had a marginally positive impact on the yield of the loan portfolio due to higher rates earned on variable rate loans and new loan production, however, this was offset by the nonrecognition of interest income on the increased level of non-performing loans which had a negative impact of approximately 0.04% on the net interest margin for the period. The average yield on interest-earning assets for the first nine months of 2007 was 7.46% which was a decrease of 4 basis points compared to the 7.50% yield earned during the first nine months of 2006. The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased 57 basis points from 3.92% in the first nine months of 2006 to 4.49% in the comparable period in 2007. The average cost of interest-bearing deposits and all interest-bearing liabilities reflect in part the increase in short-term interest rates and the change in the funding mix for the first nine months of 2007 as compared to the same period in 2006.  As a result of these changes, our tax equivalent net interest margin contracted 62 basis points to 3.66% from 4.28% in the first nine months of 2006.

During the first nine months of 2007, our net interest margin was reduced in part by the higher level of short-term investment in federal funds sold. During the period, we also closely managed the repricing of maturing certificates of deposit to contain the increase in cost of these deposits. The effect was a net reduction of certificates of deposit of $43.4 million. We generated growth of $33.4 million of lower cost demand, money market and savings accounts during the nine months providing a more favorable mix of deposits. In addition, $50 million of floating rate (LIBOR based) FHLB advances that matured in the first quarter were refunded through $50 million of new, fixed rate FHLB advances with a term structure of three years. We were able to reduce the interest cost of maturing FHLB advances that were renewed during the period from approximately 5.39% to 4.65% due to the inverted yield curve (longer-term interest rates are lower than shorter-term floating interest rates) and the callable feature of these borrowings.

Provision for Loan Losses

While on a consolidated basis, total loans outstanding increased during the first nine months of 2007, this increase was primarily due to the acquisition of The Bank of Venice. The acquisition added $56.8 million of loans to the September 30, 2007 balance sheet and required no additional provision for loan losses during the period.

The provision for loan losses increased 58% to $3.5 million in the first nine months of 2007 compared to $2.2 million in the comparable prior year period. The higher provision for loan losses in 2007 was primarily attributable to the continued contraction of residential real estate activity and the ripple effect on our local economies as well as the increase in our nonperforming loans, delinquencies and charge-offs. Loan growth of $155.4 million was the primary driver of the provision for loan losses during the 2006 period. Additionally, due to the weakening economic environment, we increased economic risk factors employed in estimating the allowance during the second quarter of 2006 and have maintained these higher factors since that period. We elevated certain quantitative and qualitative factors used in estimating our allowance for loan losses during the third quarter of 2007. Net charge-offs, relating primarily to the indirect auto dealer loan portfolio, were $2.1 million, or 0.26% of average loans on an annualized basis, during the nine months ended September 30, 2007, compared to $962,000, or 0.13% of average loans on an annualized basis, for the same period in 2006.

20

Non-interest Income

Non-interest income for the first nine months of 2007 was $5.6 million.  This represents a 22% increase over the comparable prior year period which totaled $4.6 million.  The increase was primarily attributable to a gain of approximately $254,000 recognized from the disposition of land and a gain of approximately $702,000 recognized from the disposition of an office building coupled with increases in service charges on deposit accounts. Non-interest income of The Bank of Venice represented approximately $52,000 of the increased service charges and mortgage origination fees.

Non-interest Expense

Non-interest expense for the first nine months of 2007 was $30.5 million.  This represented a 16% increase over the prior year period which totaled $26.3 million. This increase includes approximately $1.1 million, resulting from the operations of The Bank of Venice subsequent to the April 30, 2007 acquisition date as discussed in greater detail above. The overall increase reflected increased operating costs along with our continued investments in people, systems and facilities which provide the platform for future asset, deposit and revenue growth.

The $1.98 million increase in salary and employee benefits costs in the first nine months of 2007 relative to the first nine months of 2006 resulted primarily from $627,000 of annual salary increases to retain and provide incentives for employees and additional benefits and payroll related costs of approximately $272,000. Deferred salary and benefit loan origination costs were $415,000 lower due to lower levels of loan originations during the period.  Additionally, the operations of The Bank of Venice represent approximately $579,000 of the increase in this caption subsequent to the acquisition.

The $1.40 million increase in occupancy expense resulted from several categories of expense. The most significant were: 1) increased property insurance costs of approximately $345,000 due to higher insurance premiums and increased levels of coverage; 2) increased communications costs along with additional equipment depreciation costs of $293,000; 3) increased net facility rent expense of $197,000; and 4) approximately $133,000 in additional building depreciation due primarily to the occupancy of our new high profile Naples Boulevard branch and office space location in Naples Florida.  Finally, the operations of The Bank of Venice added approximately $198,000 of occupancy related costs to the operations of the consolidated entity for the period from acquisition to the end of the third quarter.

The $815,000 increase in other expense resulted from four significant categories of expense. These categories were as follows: increased professional fees of approximately $172,000; increased outsourced computer services expense of $154,000; increased FDIC and State assessments of $150,000 due to higher deposit insurance premiums; and increased marketing and community relations expenses of $122,000. The operations of The Bank of Venice subsequent to acquisition represented approximately $285,000 of the total increase in other expense.

Balance Sheet

Total assets at September 30, 2007 were $1.40 billion, up 6% from total assets of $1.32 billion at December 31, 2006.  Total loans outstanding increased $40.1 million, or 4%, to $1.10 billion for the first nine months of 2007 from year end 2006 reflecting the $56.8 million increase in loans from the acquisition of The Bank of Venice partially offset by the impact of the pay-off of several large loans at TIB Bank.  Also, in the same period, investment securities increased $31.6 million. As the overall Company continues to experience growth, securities are purchased to maintain appropriate levels of liquid assets on the balance sheet.

At September 30, 2007 advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank were $150.0 million, a $25.0 million increase. The acquisition of The Bank of Venice resulted in $5.0 million of the total increase. Short-term borrowings increased due to higher balances of repurchase agreements with deposit customers, reflecting our business development efforts to attract new business customers.

Shareholders’ equity totaled $100.7 million at September 30, 2007, increasing $14.8 million from December 31, 2006. This increase is primarily due to 944,400 shares of common stock and 82,750 stock options issued in connection with the acquisition of The Bank of Venice with a fair value of approximately $14.0 million. Book value per share increased to $7.84 at September 30, 2007 from $7.33 at December 31, 2006.  The Company declared a quarterly dividend of $0.06 per share in the first, second and third quarters of 2007 and $0.05875 per share in the first, second and third quarters of 2006.

21

Investment Securities

Investment securities available-for-sale increased by $31.7 million to $162.9 million at September 30, 2007. The increase was primarily the result of purchases of U.S. Government agency securities and agency guaranteed mortgage backed securities. On a quarterly basis, the investment securities portfolio is reviewed for other-than-temporary impairment. All individual securities that have been in a continuous unrealized loss position at September 30, 2007 had investment grade ratings upon purchase. Net unrealized losses on available for sale investment securities were $4.9 million at September 30, 2007, compared with net unrealized losses of $722,000 at December 31, 2006. Such unrealized losses represent the difference between the estimated fair value and amortized cost of the investment securities.

During the third quarter, as a result of turmoil in global financial markets and changes in liquidity and the pricing of risk, the fair value of collateralized debt obligations, with an amortized cost of $15.0 million, declined by approximately $4.1 million, resulting in a gross unrealized loss of $4.3 million on these securities. The estimated fair market value of these securities is based upon an estimate provided by an unaffiliated brokerage firm. In determining their estimate, they utilized interest rate risk spreads to certain benchmark rates implied in transactions of similar types of investments as there have been no recent transactions in identical securities. Accordingly, the amount actually received in an arms-length sale of these securities could be greater or less than the estimated fair value.

As of September 30, 2007, the underlying assets in the four collateralized debt obligations are comprised primarily of trust preferred securities and other corporate debt obligations of banks, insurance companies, REITs and real estate companies. Our securities are floating rate securities which were rated A or better by an independent and nationally recognized rating agency at the time of our purchase. During the third quarter of 2007, three issuers in one security and a single issuer in each of two other securities defaulted. Accordingly the ratings of these securities were downgraded to BBB, BBB+ and A-, respectively. The rating on the fourth security did not change.  We own positions in each security which are collateralized in excess of 100% including the effect of the defaulted issuers. We performed a detailed analysis of each of the collateralized debt obligations utilizing current loss expectations for the underlying collateral. Based on our analysis we do not currently estimate any loss or delay in the receipt of contractual principal and interest for these securities. Accordingly, we concluded that the impairment of such securities was largely attributable to a general lack of liquidity resulting from a widening of risk spreads and premiums required by market participants and the collateralized debt obligations were not other than temporarily impaired as of September 30, 2007. Nevertheless, changes in market conditions and the financial condition of the issuers of the underlying debt obligations could impact the future market values of these collateralized debt obligations, which may lead to different conclusions at later dates.

(Dollars in thousands)
Amortized Cost of Collateralized Debt Obligation		Rating at Purchase	Current Rating	Estimated Fair Value as of September 30, 2007
$	6,000	A	BBB	$	3,600
	5,000	Aa2	Aa2		4,700
	2,000	A	BBB+		1,200
	1,996	A	A-		1,240

The Company also had unrealized losses of $366,000 on a marketable equity security having a cost basis of $3.0 million at September 30, 2007. As of that date, the Company believed the impairment to be temporary and due to credit concerns relating to weakness in the national real estate market.

As of September 30, 2007, the Company has the ability and intent to hold each of its impaired securities to recovery, which may be until maturity in the case of the collateralized debt obligations. The Company intends to closely monitor the performance of the collateralized debt obligations, the equity security and other securities to assess if changes in their underlying credit performance or other events cause the cost basis of these securities to become other than temporarily impaired. As of September 30, 2007, all other unrealized losses are considered to be temporary in nature due to market interest rate fluctuations and accordingly, no impairment adjustment has been recorded.

Loan Portfolio Composition

The two most significant components of our loan portfolio are classified in the notes to the accompanying unaudited financial statements as commercial real estate and construction and vacant land. Our goal of maintaining high standards of credit quality include a strategy of diversification of loan type and purpose within these categories. The following charts illustrate the composition of these portfolios as of September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006.

Non-performing Assets

Non-performing assets include nonaccrual loans, accruing loans contractually past due 90 days or more, repossessed personal property, and other real estate.  Loans are placed on nonaccrual status when management has concerns relating to the ability to collect the loan principal and interest and generally when such loans are 90 days or more past due.  A loan is considered impaired when it is probable that not all principal and interest amounts will be collected according to the loan contract.

 Non-performing assets are as follows:

(a) Non-performing loans include the $1.6 million loan discussed below that is guaranteed for both principal and interest by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). In December 2006, the Bank stopped accruing interest on this loan pursuant to a ruling made by the USDA. Nonaccrual loans are as follows:

	September 30, 2007				December 31, 2006

			$	16,565			$	4,233

(b) In 1998, the Bank made a $10.0 million loan to construct a lumber mill in northern Florida. Of this amount, $6.4 million had been sold by the Bank to other lenders. The loan was 80% guaranteed as to principal and interest by the USDA. In addition to business real estate and equipment, the loan was collateralized by the business owner’s interest in a trust. Under provisions of the trust agreement, beneficiaries cannot receive trust assets until November 2010.

24

The portion of this loan guaranteed by the USDA and held by us was approximately $1.6 million at September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006. The loan was accruing interest until December 2006 when the Bank ceased the accrual of interest pursuant to a ruling made by the USDA. Accrued interest on the guaranteed portion of this loan totals approximately $941,000 at September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006.

In pursuing the collection of the loan, the Bank has incurred various expenditures. The Bank capitalized the liquidation costs and portion of the protective advances which it expects will be fully reimbursed by the USDA. The non-guaranteed principal and interest ($2.0 million at September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006) and the reimbursable capitalized liquidation costs and protective advance costs totaling approximately $951,000 and $899,000 at September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively, are included as “other assets” in the financial statements.

Florida law requires a bank to liquidate or charge off repossessed real property within five years, and repossessed personal property within six months. Since the property had not been liquidated during this period, the Bank charged-off the non guaranteed principal and interest totaling $2.0 million at June 30, 2003, for regulatory purposes. Since we believe this amount is ultimately realizable, we did not write off this amount for financial statement purposes under generally accepted accounting principles.

(c) This ratio is computed by dividing annualized net charge offs for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and net charge offs for the twelve months ended December 31, 2006, by the average balance of loans outstanding for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and by the average balance of loans outstanding for the year ended December 31, 2006, respectively.

The allowance for loan losses is a valuation allowance for probable incurred credit losses in the loan portfolio and amounted to approximately $11.6 million and $9.6 million at September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively.  Our process for assessing the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses and the resultant need, if any, for periodic provisions to the allowance charged to income, includes both individual loan analyses and loan pool analyses.  Individual loan analyses are periodically performed on loan relationships of a significant size, or when otherwise deemed necessary, and primarily encompass commercial real estate and other commercial loans.  The result is that commercial real estate loans and commercial loans are classified into the following risk categories: Pass, Special Mention, and Substandard or Loss.  The allowance consists of specific and general components. When appropriate, a specific reserve will be established for individual loans.  The specific component relates to loans that are individually classified as impaired or loans otherwise classified as substandard or worse. Otherwise, we allocate an allowance for each risk category.  The allocations are based on factors including historical loss rate, perceived economic conditions (local, national and global), perceived strength of our management, recent trends in loan loss history, and concentrations of credit.

A loan is considered impaired when it is probable that not all principal and interest amounts will be collected according to the loan contract. Individual commercial and commercial real estate loans exceeding certain size thresholds established by management are individually evaluated for impairment. If a loan is considered to be impaired, a portion of the allowance is allocated so that the loan is reported net, at the present value of estimated future cash flows using the loan’s existing rate or at the fair value of collateral if repayment is expected solely from the collateral. Impaired loans are as follows:

	September 30, 2007		December 31, 2006
Loans with no allocated allowance for loan losses	$	122	$	519
Loans with allocated allowance for loan losses		2,403		142
Total	$	2,525	$	661
Amount of the allowance for loan losses allocated	$	714	$	45

Home equity loans, indirect auto dealer loans, residential loans and consumer loans generally are not analyzed individually and or separately identified for impairment disclosures.  These loans are grouped into pools and assigned risk categories based on their current payment status and management’s assessment of risk inherent in the various types of loans.  As above, when appropriate, a specific reserve will be established for individual loans.  Otherwise, we allocate an allowance for each loan classification.  The allocations are based on the same factors mentioned above.

25

Based on an analysis performed by management at September 30, 2007, the allowance for loan losses is considered to be adequate to cover estimated loan losses in the portfolio as of that date. However, management’s judgment is based upon our recent historical loss experience, the level of nonperforming and delinquent loans, information known today and a number of assumptions about future events, which are believed to be reasonable, but which may or may not prove valid.  Thus, there can be no assurance that charge-offs in future periods will not exceed the allowance for loan losses or that significant additional increases in the allowance for loan losses will not be required. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review our allowance for loan losses. Such agencies may require us to recognize additions to the allowance based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination.

Management continuously monitors and actively manages the credit quality of the loan portfolio and will continue to recognize the provision required to maintain the allowance for loan losses at an appropriate level. Due to primarily slower residential real estate sales and development activity in our markets, our customers are exhibiting increasing difficulty in timely payment of their loan obligations. We believe that this trend will continue in the near term. Consequently, we anticipate higher levels of delinquent and nonperforming loans, which may require higher provisions for loan losses, higher charge-offs and higher collection related expenses in future periods.

Capital and Liquidity

The Company's policy is to maintain capital in excess of the levels required to be Well Capitalized for regulatory purposes.  As of September 30, 2007, the ratio of Total Capital to Risk Weighted Assets was 12.0%.  The increase from the 11.8% reported as of December 31, 2006 is related to the impact on capital from the acquisition of The Bank of Venice, partially offset by the pay-off during the first quarter of 2007 of $4.0 million of subordinated debt which had been included in Tier 2 Capital.

In August, the Board authorized the repurchase of up to 400,000 shares of the Company's outstanding common stock. No shares were purchased during the third quarter.

The goal of liquidity management is to ensure the availability of an adequate level of funds to meet the loan demand and deposit withdrawal needs of the Company’s customers.  We manage the levels, types and maturities of earning assets in relation to the sources available to fund current and future needs to ensure that adequate funding will be available at all times.

In addition to maintaining a stable core deposit base, we maintain adequate liquidity primarily through the use of investment securities and unused borrowing capacity.  The Banks have invested in Federal Home Loan Bank stock for the purpose of establishing credit lines with the Federal Home Loan Bank.  The credit availability to the Banks is based on a percentage of the Banks’ total assets as reported in their most recent quarterly financial information submitted to the regulators subject to the pledging of sufficient collateral.  At September 30, 2007, there were $150.0 million in advances outstanding in addition to $25.0 million in letters of credit used in lieu of pledging securities to the State of Florida to collateralize governmental deposits.  As of September 30, 2007 collateral availability under our agreements with the Federal Home Loan Bank provides for total borrowings of up to approximately $183.8 million.

The Banks have unsecured overnight federal funds purchased accommodations up to a maximum of $30.0 million from their correspondent banks.

We continue to monitor our liquidity position as part of our asset-liability management. We believe that we have adequate funding sources through brokered deposits, unused borrowing capacity from the FHLB, loan principal repayment and potential asset maturities and sales to meet our foreseeable liquidity requirements.

26

Asset and Liability Management

Closely related to liquidity management is the management of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities.  The Company manages its rate sensitivity position to manage net interest margins and to minimize risk due to changes in interest rates.

Our interest rate sensitivity position at September 30, 2007 is presented in the table below:

We are cumulatively liability sensitive through the one-year time period, and asset sensitive in the over one year timeframes above.  Certain liabilities such as non-indexed NOW and savings accounts, while technically subject to immediate re-pricing in response to changing market rates, historically do not re-price as quickly or to the extent as other interest-sensitive accounts.  Because of this, if market interest rates should decrease, it is anticipated that our net interest margin would decrease.  Also, as approximately 15% of our deposit funding is comprised of non-interest-bearing liabilities, total interest-earning assets are substantially greater than the total interest-bearing liabilities and therefore it is anticipated that, over time, the effects on net interest income from changes in asset yield will be greater than the change in expense from liability cost.  In the next three months, we anticipate short-term interest rates will remain stable and we expect that our net interest margin may decline. This expectation is due to the effects of competitive pressure on loan production at higher interest rates combined with increased depositor rate sensitivity. Due to the Federal Reserve’s recent monetary policy where short-term interest rates are decreasing we anticipate that our net interest margin contraction would be slower because we have positioned the Company by increasing our liability sensitivity through variable rate borrowings and shorter term certificates of deposit. We expect this will be largely offset by the effect of having more total assets subject to rate changes than total liabilities that are rate sensitive in a short term period.

Even in the near term, we believe the $431.6 million one year cumulative negative sensitivity gap may exaggerate the probable effects on earnings in a rising rate environment for two primary reasons. First, the liabilities subject to re-pricing are predominately not indexed to any specific market rate and therefore offer us the opportunity to delay or diminish any rate re-pricings.  Further, the assets subject to re-pricing are expected to reflect fully any changes in market rates, primarily the prime rate.

Interest-earning assets and time deposits are presented based on their contractual terms.  It is anticipated that run off in any deposit category will be approximately offset by new deposit generation. It is our policy to maintain our cumulative one year gap ratio in the -30% to 0% range.  At September 30, 2007, the Company is outside this range with a one year cumulative sensitivity ratio of –33.1%. Anticipating the end of the cycle of Federal Reserve interest rate hikes, we have intentionally increased the liability sensitivity of the balance sheet through variable rate funding when possible. The effectiveness of this tactic will depend on the timing and extent of the current round of interest rate decreases.

Commitments

The Banks are party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of their customers.  These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit.  These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheets.

The Banks’ exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to financial instruments for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual notional amount of these instruments.  The Banks use the same credit policies in making commitments to extend credit and generally use the same credit policies for letters of credit as they do for on-balance sheet instruments.

Commitments to extend credit are legally binding agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract.  Since some of these commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amount does not necessarily represent future cash requirements.  Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require the payment of a fee. At September 30, 2007, total unfunded loan commitments were approximately $176.9 million.

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Banks to assure the performance or financial obligations of a customer to a third party.  The credit risk involved in issuing standby letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers.  The Banks generally hold collateral and/or obtain personal guarantees supporting these commitments.  Since most of the letters of credit are expected to expire without being drawn upon, they do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. At September 30, 2007, commitments under standby letters of credit aggregated approximately $3.1 million.

The Company believes the likelihood of the unfunded loan commitments and unfunded letters of credit either needing to be totally funded or funded at the same time is low.  However, should significant funding requirements occur, we have available borrowing capacity from various sources as discussed in the “Capital and Liquidity” section above.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We believe interest rate risk is the most significant market risk impacting us. Each of our subsidiary banks monitors and manages its interest rate risk using interest rate sensitivity “gap” analysis and simulation modeling to measure the impact of market interest rate changes on net interest income. See our 2006 annual report on Form 10-K for disclosure of the quantitative and qualitative information regarding the interest rate risk inherent in interest rate risk sensitive instruments as of December 31, 2006. There have been no changes in the significant assumptions used in monitoring interest rate risk as of September 30, 2007. The impact of other types of market risk, such as foreign currency exchange risk and equity price risk, is deemed immaterial. We do not maintain a portfolio of trading securities and do not intend to engage in such activities in the immediate future.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the Corporation’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report.

(b) Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no significant changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the nine month period ended September 30, 2007 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1a. Risk Factors

Uncertainty and volatility in financial markets may affect the market values of financial assets

Substantially all of our assets are financial assets. We own investment securities whose values fluctuate with changes in the financial markets. Additionally, certain changes in the direction and level of interest rates, the monetary policy of the Federal Reserve, developments in global financial markets, changes in liquidity and the pricing of risk and the individual creditworthiness of the underlying debt issuers among other factors also affect the market values of financial assets. As a result, the market values of our financial assets will fluctuate and it is possible that these changes in value may result in losses.

Other than as discussed above, there has not been any material change in the risk factor disclosure from that contained in the Company's 2006 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.
