Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Annual Report on Form 10-KSB contains and incorporates by reference statements relating to future results of M&F Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) that are considered “forward-looking” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the “Securities Act”) and Section 21B of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). The forward-looking statements are principally, but not exclusively, contained in Item 1: “Description of Business” and Item 6: “Management’s Discussion and Analysis.” These statements relate to, among other things, expectations concerning loan demand, growth and performance, simulated changes in interest rates and the adequacy of our allowance for loan losses as well as, deposit mix and related cost and investment portfolio composition and associated fully equivalent taxable yields. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied as a result of certain risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, changes in political and economic conditions, interest rate fluctuations, competitive product and pricing pressures within our markets, equity and fixed income market fluctuations, personal and corporate customers’ bankruptcies, inflation, acquisitions and integrations of acquired businesses, technological changes, changes in law and regulations, changes in fiscal, monetary, regulatory and tax policies, monetary fluctuations, success in gaining regulatory approvals when required, as well as, other risks and uncertainties reported from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Forward-looking statements and factors that may cause actual results to differ materially are also discussed within Item 6: “Management’s Discussion and Analysis.” Broadly speaking, forward-looking statements include:

• projections of the Company’s revenues, income, earnings per share, capital expenditures, dividends, capital structure or other financial items;

• descriptions of plans or objectives of the Company’s management for future operations, products or services;

• forecasts of the Company’s future economic performance; and

• descriptions of assumptions underlying or relating to any of the foregoing.

The Company may make forward-looking statements discussing management’s expectations about:

• future credit losses and nonperforming assets;

• the impact of new accounting standards;

• future short-term and long-term interest rate levels and their impact on the Company’s net interest margin, net income, liquidity and capital; and

• future capital expenditures.

Forward-looking statements discuss matters that are not historical facts. Because they discuss future events or conditions, forward-looking statements often include words such as “anticipate,” “might,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “plan,” “could,” “may,” “should,” “will,” “would”, or similar expressions. Do not unduly rely on forward-looking statements. They detail management’s expectations about the future and are not guarantees. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and management may not update them to reflect changes that occur after the date the statements are made.

PART I

ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

GENERAL

Based in Durham, North Carolina (“NC”), M&F Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) is the holding company for Mechanics and Farmers Bank (the “Bank”), a state chartered commercial bank that was organized in 1907 and began operations in 1908.

The Company, established in 1999, is a bank holding company, registered with the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Federal Reserve”) under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the “BHCA”). The Company’s sole activity currently consists of owning the Bank. The Company’s principal source of income is any dividends, which are declared and paid by the Bank on its issued and outstanding capital stock. The Company uses such income to pay dividends to shareholders and cover expenses.

The majority of the Company’s operations occur at the Bank level. Throughout this Annual Report on Form 10-KSB, results of operations will be discussed by referring to the Bank’s operations unless a specific reference is made to the Company and its operating results apart from those of the Bank.

As a NC-chartered bank, the Bank is subject to examination and regulation by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”) and the Commissioner of Banks, NC Department of Commerce (the “Commissioner”). The Bank is further subject to certain regulations of the Federal Reserve, including governing reserves required to be maintained against deposits and other matters. The business and regulation of the Company and the Bank are also subject to legislative changes from time to time. See “Supervision and Regulation” for additional discussion.

The Bank provides a broad range of financial products and services through nine offices located in the NC markets below:

Market	Number of Branches
Durham	3
Raleigh	2
Charlotte	3
Winston-Salem	1

GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF MARKET AREA

The Bank has three offices in Durham, NC, two offices in Raleigh, NC, three offices in Charlotte, NC, and one office in Winston-Salem, NC. All offices are located in metropolitan areas with employment spread primarily among service, manufacturing and governmental activities. All offices are located in areas of high competition among financial service providers. As of June 30, 2006, based on the FDIC Summary of Deposit Data accumulated and ranked within the related geographic metropolitan statistical area: (i) Durham had 20 commercial banks and savings associations, and the Bank ranked 11^th in deposit size; (ii) Raleigh had 29 commercial banks and savings associations, and the Bank ranked 17^th in deposit size; (iii) the Charlotte metropolitan area had 46 commercial banks and savings associations, and the Bank ranked 36^th in deposit size: and (iv) Winston-Salem had 19 commercial banks and savings associations, and the Bank ranked 16^th in deposit size.

LENDING ACTIVITIES

General. The Bank’s primary source of revenue is interest and fee income from its lending activities, consisting primarily of automobile, home equity, home improvement, personal, residential mortgage, commercial real estate, construction and commercial loans. The Bank also offers both personal and commercial overdraft protection in connection with its checking accounts. As of December 31, 2006, approximately 94% of the Bank’s loan portfolio was secured by real property, 5% was secured by personal property, and less than one percent was unsecured. On December 31, 2006, the largest amount the Bank had outstanding to any one borrower and its affiliates was approximately $3.0 million. In addition to interest earned on loans, the Bank receives fees in connection with loan originations, loan modifications, late payments, loan assumptions and other miscellaneous services.

M&F BANCORP, INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARY

Loan Portfolio Composition. The Bank’s consolidated gross loan portfolio, before the effects of $0.37 million in deferred origination fees (net), totaled approximately $161.9 million at December 31, 2006 representing 60.41% of the Bank’s total assets. As of December 31, 2006, approximately 62.40% of the Bank’s gross loan portfolio was composed of adjustable rate loans, and approximately 37.60% of the Bank’s gross loan portfolio was composed of fixed rate loans. As of December 31, 2006, approximately $4.0 million, or 2.47%, of the Bank’s gross loan portfolio was composed of consumer loans. On such date, approximately $4.1 million, or 2.53%, of the Bank’s gross loan portfolio was composed of commercial loans, approximately $152.6 million, or 94.3%, consisted of real estate loans and the remaining insignificant amount consisted of other loans.

Origination, Purchase and Sale of Loans. Residential mortgage loans generally are originated in conformity with purchase requirements of the Federal National Mortgage Association. Accordingly, although the Bank does not originate loans for the purpose of sale, the Bank believes such loans are saleable in the secondary market. The Bank did not purchase, nor did it sell any loans in fiscal years 2006 or 2005.

Asset Classification. Applicable regulations require each insured institution to “classify” its own assets on a regular basis. In addition, in connection with examinations of financial institutions, regulatory examiners have authority to identify problem assets and, if appropriate, classify them. Problem assets are classified as “substandard,” “doubtful” or “loss,” depending on the presence of certain characteristics as discussed below.

An asset is considered “substandard” if not adequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or the collateral pledged, if any. “Substandard” assets include those characterized by the “distinct possibility” that the insured institution will sustain “some loss” if the deficiencies are not corrected. Assets classified as “doubtful” have all of the weaknesses inherent in those classified “substandard” with the added characteristic that the weaknesses present make “collection or liquidation in full,” because of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, “highly questionable and improbable.” Assets classified “loss” are those considered “uncollectible” and of such little value that their continuance as assets without the establishment of a loss reserve is not warranted.

In 2005, the Board of Directors of the Bank approved a new credit classification system to evaluate the risks inherent in the Bank’s loan portfolio. During 2006, management undertook an evaluation of the loan portfolio based on this new classification system. The results of this evaluation have been taken into consideration in determining provisions to the allowance for loan losses during 2006. This approach did not have a material impact on the financial results or on the amount included in the allowance for loan losses during 2006.

As of December 31, 2006, the Bank had approximately $7.7 million of loans classified as “substandard,” no loans classified as “doubtful,” and no loans classified as “loss.” Total classified assets as of December 31, 2006 and 2005 were approximately $16.0 million and $16.3 million, respectively.

In connection with the filing of periodic reports with regulatory agencies, the Bank reports any assets that possess credit deficiencies or potential weaknesses deserving close attention by management. These assets may be considered “special mention” assets and do not yet warrant adverse classification. As of December 31, 2006, the Bank had approximately $8.3 million of loans in the “special mention” category, as compared to $4.3 million as of December 31, 2005.

When an insured institution classifies problem assets as either substandard or doubtful, management analyzes the loan for the purpose of determining if the loan is impaired. In making this determination, the Bank follows the guidance of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan, as amended by SFAS No. 118, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan—Income Recognition and Disclosures. As described below, the assessment of whether a loan is impaired is an integral component in determining an appropriate estimate of the valuation allowance. When an insured institution classifies problem assets as “loss,” it charges off the balance of the asset. The Bank’s determination as to the classification of its assets and the amount of its valuation allowances is subject to review by the FDIC and the Commissioner, which can order the establishment of additional loss allowances.

ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

In originating loans, the Bank recognizes that credit losses will be experienced and that the risk of loss will vary with, among other things, the type of loan being made, the creditworthiness of the borrower over the term of the loan and, in the case of a secured loan, the quality of the security for the loan as well as general economic conditions. It is management’s policy to maintain an adequate allowance for loan losses based on, among other things, the Bank’s historical loan loss experience, evaluation of economic conditions and regular review of delinquencies and loan portfolio quality.

4

M&F BANCORP, INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARY

The Bank prepares a quarterly analysis of the allowance for loan losses, with the objective of quantifying portfolio risk as a dollar amount. The determination of the allowance for loan losses is based on eight qualitative factors and one quantitative factor for each category and type of loan, along with any specific allowance for adversely classified loans within each category. Each factor is assigned a percentage weight and that total weight is applied to each loan category. Factors and associated weighting are different for each category. Qualitative factors include: levels and trends in delinquencies and nonaccrual loans; trends in volumes and terms of loans; effects of any changes in lending policies; the experience, ability and depth of management; national and local economic trends and conditions; concentrations of credit; quality of the Bank’s loan review system; and regulatory requirements. The total allowance thus changes as the percentage weight assigned to each factor is increased or decreased due to the particular circumstances, as the various types and categories of loans change as a percentage of total loans and as specific allowances are required due to increases in adversely classified loans. See Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2006 for additional information regarding the determination of the provision and allowance for loan losses.

The Bank follows the guidance of SFAS No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies and SFAS No. 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan, as amended by SFAS No. 118, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan—Income Recognition and Disclosures. SFAS No. 5 requires that losses be accrued when they are probable of occurring and estimatable. SFAS No. 114 requires that impaired loans, within its scope, be measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, except that as a practical expedient, a creditor may measure impairment based on a loan’s observable market price, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. SFAS No. 114 excludes smaller balance and homogeneous loans, which are collectively evaluated for impairment, from impairment reporting. Therefore, the Bank has designated consumer and residential mortgage loans to be excluded for this purpose. From the remaining loan portfolio, loans rated as doubtful, or worse, classified as nonaccrual, and troubled debt restructurings may be evaluated for impairment.

Loans are evaluated for nonaccrual status when principal or interest is delinquent for 90 days or more and are placed on nonaccrual status when a loan is specifically determined to be impaired. Any unpaid interest previously accrued on those loans is reversed from income. Any interest payments subsequently received are recognized as income unless, in management’s opinion, a potential for loss remains. Interest payments received on loans, where management believes a potential for loss remains, are applied as a reduction of the loan principal balance.

Management actively monitors the Bank’s asset quality, charges off loans against the allowance for loan losses when appropriate and provides specific loss reserves when necessary. Although management believes it uses the best information available to make determinations with respect to the allowance for loan losses, future adjustments may be necessary if economic or other qualitative factors differ substantially from the conditions in the assumptions used in making the initial determinations.

INVESTMENT SECURITIES

Interest income from investment securities generally provides a significant source of income to the Bank. In addition, the Bank receives interest income from interest on overnight deposits with other financial institutions.

On December 31, 2006, the Bank’s investment securities portfolio totaled approximately $53.2 million and consisted of U.S. Government agency and mortgage-backed securities, obligations of states and political subdivisions and a single equity security holding.

The Bank’s investment strategy is intended, among other things, to (i) provide and maintain liquidity, (ii) maintain a balance of high quality, diversified investments to minimize risk, (iii) maximize returns, and (iv) manage interest rate risk. In terms of priorities, safety is considered more important than liquidity or return on investment. The Bank does not engage in hedging activities.

DEPOSITS AND BORROWINGS

General. Deposits are the primary source of the Bank’s funds for lending and other investment purposes. In addition to deposits, the Bank derives funds from loan principal repayments, interest payments, investment income, interest from its Federal funds deposits, and otherwise from its operations. Loan repayments are a relatively stable source of funds while deposit inflows and outflows may be significantly influenced by general interest rates and money market conditions. Borrowings may be used on a short-term basis to compensate for reductions in the availability of funds from other sources. They may also be used on a longer-term basis for general business purposes.

M&F BANCORP, INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARY

Deposits. In recent years, the Bank has experienced consistent deposit growth. On December 31, 2006 and 2005, the Bank’s deposits totaled approximately $223.8 million and $203.8 million, respectively. The Bank participates in a national listing service, QwickRate^®1, to offer deposits to other financial institutions and it has three brokered certificates of deposit through CDARs^®2. During 2006, approximately $16.7 million of growth was in certificates of deposits with institutional and commercial customers primarily obtained through QwickRate^® and brokered through CDARs^®. The majority of these deposits has a one-year term and reprice at market rates upon maturity.

The Bank attracts both short-term and long-term deposits from the general public by offering a variety of accounts and rates. The Bank offers savings accounts, interest-bearing and noninterest-bearing checking accounts, and fixed interest rate certificates with varying maturities. All deposit flows are greatly influenced by economic conditions, the general level of interest rates, competition and other factors. Traditionally, the Bank’s deposits have been obtained primarily from its market areas. The Bank utilizes traditional marketing methods to attract new customers and deposits, including print media advertising and direct mailings. The Bank does not advertise for deposits outside of its local market areas.

COMPETITION

The Bank faces strong competition in both attracting deposits and making loans. Its most direct competition for deposits has historically come from savings institutions, credit unions and other commercial banks located in its market areas within North Carolina, including large financial institutions, which have greater financial and marketing resources available to them. The Bank has also recently faced additional significant competition for investors’ funds from short-term money market securities and other corporate and government securities. The ability of the Bank to attract and retain deposits depends on its ability generally to provide a rate of return, liquidity and risk comparable to that offered by competing investment opportunities. As of June 30, 2006, based the FDIC Summary of Deposits Report, the Bank’s market share of the deposits in Durham, NC was approximately 1.9%, and less than one percent in each of Raleigh, Charlotte and Winston-Salem, NC.

EMPLOYEES

As of December 31, 2006, the Company and the Bank had a total of 87 employees (including two named executive officers), including 85 full-time equivalent employees.

SUPERVISION AND REGULATION

Bank holding companies and commercial banks are subject to extensive federal and state governmental regulation and supervision. The following is a brief summary of certain statutes and regulations that apply to the Company and Bank. This summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the particular statute and regulatory provisions cited below and are not intended to be an exhaustive description of the statutes or regulations applicable to the business of the Company and the Bank. Supervision, regulation and examination of the Company and the Bank by the regulatory agencies are intended primarily for the protection of depositors rather than shareholders of the Company. Statutes and regulations, which contain wide-ranging proposals for altering the structures, regulations, and competitive relationship of financial institutions are introduced regularly. The Company cannot predict whether or in what form any proposed statute or regulation will be adopted or the extent to which the business of the Company and the Bank may be affected by such statute or regulation.

The FDIC and the Commissioner completed examinations during 2005 and 2006. As a result of these examinations, the Bank agreed to, among other things, improve loan asset quality, underwriting and credit administration, increase liquidity, review all overhead costs, continually to evaluate the allowance for loan losses due to increases in the level of classified loans and more closely monitor capital ratios and requirements. Management has reported to the regulators on a quarterly basis throughout the period following the examinations, providing progress reports on each of the examiners’ recommendations.

General. There are a number of obligations and restrictions imposed on bank holding companies and their depository institution subsidiaries by law and regulatory policy that are designed to minimize potential loss to the depositors of such depository institutions and the FDIC in the event the depository institution becomes in danger of, or in, default. For example, to avoid receivership of an insured depository institution subsidiary, a bank holding company is required to guarantee the compliance of any insured depository institution subsidiary that may become “undercapitalized” with the terms of any capital restoration plan filed by such subsidiary with its appropriate federal banking agency up to the lesser of (i) an amount equal to 5% of the bank’s total assets at the time the bank became undercapitalized or (ii) the amount which is necessary (or would have been necessary) to bring the bank into compliance with all acceptable capital standards as of the time the bank fails to comply with such capital restoration plan.

The Company, as a registered bank holding company, is subject to the regulation and supervision of the Federal Reserve. Under a policy of the Federal Reserve with respect to bank holding company operations, a bank holding company is required to serve as a source of financial strength to its subsidiary depository institutions and to commit resources to support such institutions in circumstances where it might not do so absent such policy. The Federal Reserve under the BHCA also has the authority to require a bank holding company to terminate any activity or to relinquish control of a nonbank subsidiary (other than a nonbank subsidiary of a bank) upon the Federal Reserve’s determination that such activity or control constitutes a serious risk to the financial soundness and stability of any bank subsidiary of the bank holding company.

In addition, insured depository institutions under common control are required to reimburse the FDIC for any loss suffered by its deposit insurance funds as a result of the default of a commonly controlled insured depository institution or for any assistance provided by the FDIC to a commonly controlled insured depository institution in danger of default. The FDIC may decline to enforce the cross-guarantee provisions if it determines that a waiver is in the best interests of the deposit insurance funds. The FDIC’s claim for damages is superior to claims of stockholders of the insured depository institution or its holding company but is subordinate to claims of depositors, secured creditors and holders of subordinated debt (other than affiliates) of the commonly controlled insured depository institutions.

As a result of the Company’s ownership of the Bank, the Company is also registered under the bank holding company laws of NC. Accordingly, the Company is also subject to regulation and supervision by the Commissioner.

Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act was signed into law in 2002 (“Sarbanes-Oxley”) and became some of the most sweeping federal legislation addressing accounting, corporate governance and disclosure issues. The impact of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act has been wide-ranging as it applies to all public companies and imposes significant new requirements for public company governance and disclosure requirements. Some of the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act became effective immediately while other provisions have subsequently been implemented or will be implemented in the future.

In general, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act mandated important new corporate governance and financial reporting requirements intended to enhance the accuracy and transparency of public companies’ reported financial results. It established new responsibilities for corporate chief executive officers, chief financial officers and audit committees in the financial reporting process and created a new regulatory body to oversee auditors of public companies. It backed these requirements with new SEC enforcement tools, increased criminal penalties for federal mail, wire and securities fraud, and created new criminal penalties for document and record destruction in connection with federal investigations. It also increased the opportunity for more private litigation by lengthening the statute of limitations for securities fraud claims and providing new federal corporate whistleblower protection.

M&F BANCORP, INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARY

The economic and operational effects of this legislation on public companies, including the Company, have been and will continue to be significant in terms of the time, resources and costs associated with complying with its requirements. Because the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, for the most part, applies equally to larger and smaller public companies, we will be presented with additional challenges as a smaller financial institution seeking to compete with larger financial institutions in our market. In 2006, the SEC announced (with respect to certain categories of reporting companies, including the Company) a delay in requiring disclosure of (i) internal controls over financial reporting, until the first fiscal year ending on or after July 15, 2007; and (ii) independent auditor’s attestation report on management’s assessment of the company’s internal control over financial reporting, until the first fiscal year ending after December 15, 2008.

USA Patriot Act. The USA Patriot Act of 2001 was enacted in response to the terrorist attacks that occurred in New York, Pennsylvania and Washington, D.C. on September 11, 2001. The Act was intended to strengthen the ability of U.S. law enforcement and the intelligence community to work cohesively to combat terrorism on a variety of fronts. The impact of the Act on financial institutions of all kinds is significant and wide ranging. The Act contained sweeping anti-money laundering and financial transparency laws and requires various regulations, including standards for verifying customer identification at account opening, and rules to promote cooperation among financial institutions, regulators, and law enforcement entities in identifying parties that may be involved in terrorism or money laundering.

The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act. The federal Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, (the “GLB Act”) dramatically changed various federal laws governing the banking, securities and insurance industries. The GLB Act expanded opportunities for banks and bank holding companies to provide services and engage in other revenue-generating activities that previously were prohibited to them. However, this expanded authority also presents the Company with new challenges as its larger competitors are able to expand their services and products into areas that are not feasible for smaller, community oriented financial institutions. The GLB Act has had a significant economic impact on the banking industry and on competitive conditions in the financial services industry generally.

Capital Adequacy Guidelines for Holding Companies. The Federal Reserve has adopted capital adequacy guidelines for bank holding companies and banks that are members of the Federal Reserve System and have consolidated assets of $500.0 million or more. Bank holding companies subject to the Federal Reserve’s capital adequacy guidelines are required to comply with the Federal Reserve’s risk-based capital guidelines. Under these regulations, the minimum ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets is 8%. At least half of the total capital is required to be “Tier I capital,” principally consisting of common stockholders’ equity, noncumulative perpetual preferred stock, and a limited amount of cumulative perpetual preferred stock, less certain goodwill items. The remainder (“Tier II capital”) may consist of a limited amount of subordinated debt, certain hybrid capital instruments and other debt securities, perpetual preferred stock, and a limited amount of the general loan loss allowance. In addition to the risk-based capital guidelines, the Federal Reserve has adopted a minimum Tier I capital (leverage) ratio, under which a bank holding company must maintain a minimum level of Tier I capital to average total consolidated assets of at least 3% in the case of a bank holding company which has the highest regulatory examination rating and is not contemplating significant growth or expansion. All other bank holding companies are expected to maintain a Tier I capital (leverage) ratio of at least 1% to 2% above the stated minimum.

Capital Requirements for the Bank. The Bank, as a NC commercial bank, is required to maintain a surplus account equal to 50% or more of its paid-in capital stock. As a NC chartered, FDIC-insured commercial bank, which is not a member of the Federal Reserve System, the Bank is also subject to capital requirements imposed by the FDIC. Under the FDIC’s regulations, state nonmember banks that (a) receive the highest rating during the examination process and (b) are not anticipating or experiencing any significant growth, are required to maintain a minimum leverage ratio of 3% of total consolidated assets; all other banks are required to maintain a minimum ratio of 1% or 2% above the stated minimum, with a minimum leverage ratio of not less than 4%. The Bank exceeded all applicable capital requirements as of December 31, 2006.

Dividend and Repurchase Limitations. The Company must obtain Federal Reserve approval prior to repurchasing its common stock for consideration in excess of 10% of its net worth during any twelve-month period unless the Company (i) both before and after the redemption satisfies capital requirements for “well capitalized” state member banks; (ii) received a one or two rating in its last examination; and (iii) is not the subject of any unresolved supervisory issues.

Although the payment of dividends and repurchase of stock by the Company are subject to certain requirements and limitations of NC corporate law, except as set forth in the next paragraph, neither the Commissioner nor the FDIC have promulgated any regulations specifically limiting the right of the Company to pay dividends and repurchase shares. However, the ability of the Company to pay dividends or repurchase shares is entirely dependent upon the Company’s receipt of dividends from the Bank.

NC commercial banks, such as the Bank, are subject to legal limitations on the amounts of dividends they are permitted to pay. The Bank may pay dividends from undivided profits, which are determined by deducting and charging certain items against actual profits, including any contributions to surplus required by NC law. In addition, an insured depository institution, such as the Bank, is prohibited from making capital distributions, including the payment of dividends, if, after making such distribution, the institution would become “undercapitalized” (as such term is defined in the applicable law and regulations).

Deposit Insurance. The deposits of the Bank are currently insured to a maximum of $100,000 per depositor, subject to aggregation rules. The FDIC establishes rates for the payment of premiums by federally insured banks and thrifts for deposit insurance. Since 1993, insured depository institutions like the Bank have paid for deposit insurance under a risk-based premium system. Insurance of deposits may be terminated by the FDIC upon a finding that the institution has engaged in unsafe and unsound practices, is in an unsafe or unsound condition to continue operations, or has violated any applicable law, regulation, rule, order, or condition imposed by the FDIC. Due to its severe consequences, the FDIC historically uses insurance termination as an enforcement action of last resort and the termination process itself involves substantial notice, a formal adjudicative hearing and federal appellate review. In instances where deposit insurance is terminated, the financial institution is required to notify its depositors and insured funds on the date of termination that they will continue to be insured for at least six months and up to two years, at the discretion of the FDIC. After the date of termination, no new deposits accepted by the financial institution will be federally insured.

Federal Deposit Insurance Reform. On February 8, 2006, President Bush signed the Federal Deposit Insurance Reform Act of 2005 (“FDIRA”). The FDIC was required to adopt rules implementing the various provisions of FDIRA by November 5, 2006. Among other things, FDIRA changes the Federal deposit insurance system by:

• raising the coverage level for retirement accounts to $250,000;

• indexing deposit insurance coverage levels for inflation beginning in 2012;

• prohibiting undercapitalized financial institutions from accepting employee benefit plan deposits;

• merging the Bank Insurance Fund and Savings Association Insurance Fund into a new Deposit Insurance Fund (the “DIF”); and

• providing credits to financial institutions that capitalized the FDIC prior to 1996 to offset future assessment premiums.

FDIRA also authorizes the FDIC to revise the current risk-based assessment system, subject to notice and comment and caps the amount of the DIF at 1.50% of domestic deposits. The FDIC must issue cash dividends, awarded on a historical basis, for the amount of the DIF over the 1.50% ratio. Additionally, if the DIF exceeds 1.35% of domestic deposits at year-end, the FDIC must issue cash dividends, awarded on a historical basis, for half of the amount of the excess.

Federal Home Loan Bank System. The Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) system provides a central credit facility for member institutions. In December 2004, the FHLB of Atlanta implemented a new capital plan. As a member of the FHLB of Atlanta and under the new capital plan, the Bank is required to own capital stock in the FHLB of Atlanta in an amount at least equal to 0.20% (or 20 basis points) of the Bank’s total assets at the end of each calendar year, plus 4.5% of its outstanding advances (borrowings) from the FHLB of Atlanta under the new activity-based stock ownership requirement. On December 31, 2006, the Bank was in compliance with this requirement.

Community Reinvestment. Under the Community Reinvestment Act (“CRA”), as implemented by regulations of the FDIC, an insured institution has a continuing and affirmative obligation consistent with its safe and sound operation to help meet the credit needs of its entire community, including low and moderate-income neighborhoods. The CRA does not establish specific lending requirements or programs for financial institutions, nor does it limit an institution’s discretion to develop, consistent with the CRA, the types of products and services that it believes are best suited to its particular community. The CRA requires the federal banking regulators, in connection with their examinations of insured institutions, to assess the institutions’ records of meeting the credit needs of their communities, using the ratings of “outstanding”, “satisfactory”, “needs to improve”, or “substantial noncompliance”, and to take that record into account in its evaluation of certain applications by those institutions. All institutions are required to make public disclosure of their CRA performance ratings. The Bank received an “outstanding” rating in its last CRA examination, which was conducted during October 2003.

Prompt Corrective Action. The FDIC has broad powers to take corrective action to resolve the problems of insured depository institutions. The extent of these powers will depend upon whether the institution in question is “well capitalized”, “adequately capitalized”, “undercapitalized”, “significantly undercapitalized”, or “critically undercapitalized”. Under the regulations, an institution is considered “well capitalized” if it has (i) a total risk-based capital ratio of 10% or greater, (ii) a Tier I risk-based capital ratio of 6% or greater, (iii) a leverage ratio of 5% or greater and (iv) is not subject to any order or written directive to meet and maintain a specific capital level for any capital measure. An “adequately capitalized” institution is defined as one that has (i) a total risk-based capital ratio of 8% or greater, (ii) a Tier I risk-based capital ratio of 4% or greater and (iii) a leverage ratio of 4% or greater (or 3% or greater in the case of an institution with the highest examination rating). An institution is considered “undercapitalized” if it has (i) a total risk-based capital ratio of less than 8%, (ii) a Tier I risk-based capital ratio of less than 4% or (iii) a leverage ratio of less than 4% (or

3% in the case of an institution with the highest examination rating. An institution is considered “significantly undercapitalized” if the institution has (i) a total risk-based capital ratio of less than 6%, (ii) a Tier I risk-based capital ratio of less than 3% or (iii) a leverage ratio of less than 3%, and is considered “critically undercapitalized” if the institution has a ratio of tangible equity to total assets equal to or less than 2%. As of December 31, 2006, the Company and the Bank were classified as “well capitalized”.

Changes in Control. The BHCA prohibits the Company from acquiring direct or indirect control of more than 5% of the outstanding voting stock or substantially all of the assets of any bank or savings bank or merging or consolidating with another bank holding company or savings bank holding company without prior approval of the Federal Reserve. Similarly, Federal Reserve approval (or, in certain cases, non-disapproval) must be obtained prior to any person acquiring control of the Company. Control is conclusively presumed to exist if, among other things, a person acquires more than 25% of any class of voting stock of the Company or controls in any manner the election of a majority of the directors of the Company. Control is presumed to exist if a person acquires more than 10% of any class of voting stock and the stock is registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act or the acquiror will be the largest shareholder after the acquisition.

Federal Securities Law. The Company has registered its common stock with the SEC pursuant to Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act. As a result of that registration, the proxy and tender offer rules, insider trading reporting requirements, annual and periodic reporting and other requirements of the Exchange Act are applicable to the Company.

Restrictions on Transactions with Affiliates. The Bank is subject to the provisions of Sections 23A and 23B of the Federal Reserve Act and Regulation W thereunder. Section 23A places limits on the amount of:

• a bank’s loans or extensions of credit to, or investment in, its affiliates;

• assets a bank may purchase from affiliates, except for real and personal property exempted by the Federal Reserve Board;

• the amount of loans or extensions of credit by a bank to third parties which are collateralized by the securities or obligations of the bank’s affiliates; and

• a bank’s guarantee, acceptance or letter of credit issued on behalf of one of its affiliates.

The total amount of the above transactions is limited in amount, as to any one affiliate, to 10% of a bank’s capital and surplus and, as to all affiliates combined, to 20% of a bank’s capital and surplus. In addition to the limitation on the amount of these transactions, each of the above transactions must also meet specified collateral requirements. The Bank also must comply with other provisions designed to avoid the taking of low-quality assets from an affiliate.

The Bank also is subject to the provisions of Section 23B of the Federal Reserve Act which, among other things, prohibits a bank from engaging in the above transactions with its affiliates unless the transactions are on terms substantially the same, or at least as favorable to the bank or its subsidiaries, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with nonaffiliated companies.

Under Section 22(h), loans to directors, executive officers and shareholders who own more than 10% of a depository institution (18% in the case of institutions located in an area with less than 30,000 in population), and certain affiliated entities of any of the foregoing, may not exceed, together with all other outstanding loans to such person and affiliated entities, the institution’s loans-to-one-borrower limit (as discussed below). Section 22(h) also prohibits loans above amounts prescribed by the appropriate federal banking agency to directors, executive officers and shareholders who own more than 10% of an institution, and their respective affiliates, unless such loans are approved in advance by a majority of the board of directors of the institution. Any “interested” director may not participate in the voting. The FDIC has prescribed the loan amount (which includes all other outstanding loans to such person), as to which such prior board of director approval is required, as being the greater of $25,000 or 5% of capital and surplus (up to $500,000). Further, pursuant to Section 22(h), the Federal Reserve requires that loans to directors, executive officers, and principal shareholders be made on terms substantially the same as offered in comparable transactions with non-executive employees of the Bank. The FDIC has imposed additional limits on the amount a bank can loan to an executive officer.

Other. Additional regulations require annual examinations of all insured depository institutions by the appropriate federal banking agency, with some exceptions for small, well-capitalized institutions and state chartered institutions examined by state regulators. Additional regulations also establish operational and managerial, asset quality, earnings and stock valuation standards for insured depository institutions, as well as compensation standards.

The Bank is subject to examination by the FDIC and the Commissioner. In addition, the Bank is subject to various other state and federal laws and regulations, including state usury laws, laws relating to fiduciaries, consumer credit and equal credit, fair credit reporting laws and laws relating to branch banking. The Bank, as an insured North Carolina commercial bank, is prohibited from engaging as a principal in activities that are not permitted for national banks, unless (i) the FDIC determines that the activity would pose no significant risk to the appropriate deposit insurance fund and (ii) the Bank is, and continues to be, in compliance with all applicable capital standards.

ITEM 6. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

INTRODUCTION

Management’s Discussion and Analysis (the “MD&A”) is provided to assist readers in their analysis of the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements and supplemental financial information. The MD&A should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes included elsewhere herein. See “Item 1 – Description of Business”, above, which section is incorporated herein by reference. Because the Company’s primary asset is the Bank, the discussion that follows focuses on the Bank’s business and operations.

EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW

Review of 2006

Earnings increased by $1.0 million, or 131.3%, in 2006 from 2005, which was the result of increased net interest income, lower provisions for loans losses and a reduction in Noninterest Expense. During 2006, the Bank benefited from the rising interest rate environment with respect to overnight cash deposits, loans and investment securities, which in aggregate exceeded the negative impact on deposits. As of December 31, 2006, the ratio of the Bank’s rate sensitive assets to rate sensitive liabilities was 103.11% within one year, meaning the Bank was in a relatively neutral gap position. In a neutral gap position, assets and liabilities repricing is the same in either a rising or falling interest rate environment. In addition to the increase in net interest income, in response to remediation of certain loan quality issues discussed below, the Bank recorded a credit for loan losses of $0.05 million in 2006, compared to a provision of $0.66 million in 2005. Nonperforming assets decreased $4.4 million or 75.9% when comparing December 31, 2006 with December 31, 2005. This decrease in nonperforming assets primarily related to the Bank placing two large loan relationships back on accrual status.

The FDIC and the Commissioner completed examinations during 2005 and 2006. As a result of these examinations, the Bank agreed to, among other things, improve loan asset quality, underwriting and credit administration, increase liquidity, review all overhead costs, continue to evaluate the allowance for loan losses due to increases in the level of classified loans and more closely monitor capital ratios and requirements. Management has reported on a quarterly basis to the regulators throughout the period following the examinations, providing progress reports on each of the examiners’ recommendations.

In the opinion of management, the Company achieved some significant milestones and financial goals during 2006, most notably:

• Asset growth to approximately $268.0 million, a record level,

• In response to low loan production, increasing our investment portfolio to $53.2 million,

• Entering into a strategic depository relationship agreement with a money center bank in the aggregate amount of $15.0 million during the fourth quarter

The following factors significantly affected 2006 earnings and financial position:

• Net interest income increased approximately $0.5 million, due to the increase in the average yield of interest-earning assets exceeding the impact of the increase in the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities, as exhibited later in the “Average Balances and Interest Income Analysis”.

• In response to a significant improvement in overall asset quality of the loan portfolio, exemplified by nonperforming assets reducing from $5.8 million in 2005 to $1.4 million in 2006, resulting in the provision for loan losses decreasing by $0.7 million from 2006 to 2005.

• Total noninterest income moderated during 2006 by approximately $0.4 million, largely related to the maturation of the Bank’s bounce protection program, which was introduced in May 2005.

• Salaries and employee benefits decreased by approximately $1.0 million. The primary factor was the additional pension cost recognized during 2005 associated with the nonqualified Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (the “SERP”) of $0.6 million related to special termination benefits and curtailment losses.

Outlook for 2007

During the second half 2006, under the leadership of its new chairman, the Federal Open Market Committee maintained a stable rate environment, with the target Federal Funds rate cresting at 5.25%. Based on a recent economists’ forecast survey published by Bloomberg (dated March 7, 2007), the consensus forecast is for rates to remain stable during the first three quarters of 2007, dropping by 25 basis points during the fourth quarter of 2007. As of December 31, 2006, the Bank was in a relatively neutral gap position of 103.11% (defined as rate sensitive assets divided by rate sensitive liabilities, as exhibited later in the “Interest Rate Sensitivity (Gap Analysis)”).

M&F BANCORP, INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARY

The Bank shall endeavor to grow its loan portfolio, using both deposit growth and alternative borrowing sources to fund such loan growth. During the second half of 2006, the Bank recruited and hired four experienced loan officers, including two city executives.

Although 2007 may continue to bring a mixed economic environment, the Company remains optimistic about its ability to perform under varying economic conditions. In the near term, the Company will undertake conversion of its underlying core information and ancillary systems, scheduled to occur during the second quarter of 2007. This core system migration will allow the Bank to better serve existing customers, provide a basis for expanding the current suite of products and services as well as provide management with more accurate and timely information upon which to assess and make critical decisions. Over the longer term, the Company plans to continue to diversify and broaden its market, customer and economic base, when favorable conditions and resources allow, as we seek to generate stable and sustainable earnings for our shareholders.

As management looks forward, there are several key challenges that the Company will face, namely:

• Technology changes, including the core information and ancillary systems migration, scheduled for the second quarter of 2007,

• Asset quality, continuing the marked improvement experienced in 2006,

• Interest rate volatility, managing associated risk through a more focused and effective asset liability management process,

• Improving operating efficiency, improving people, process and systems,

• Relationship banking, linking loan and core deposit growth.

APPLICATION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

We have established various accounting policies, which govern the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America in preparation of our consolidated financial statements. Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Certain accounting policies require us to make significant estimates and assumptions, which have a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities, and consider these critical accounting policies. The estimates and assumptions we use are based on historical experience and other factors, which we believe to be appropriate and reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ significantly from these estimates and assumptions, which could have a material impact on the carrying value of assets and liabilities at the balance sheet dates and our results of operations for the reporting periods.

We believe the following are critical accounting policies that require management’s judgment in making significant estimates and assumptions that are particularly susceptible to significant change.

Provisions and Allowances for Loan Losses – The allowance for possible loan losses is established as losses are estimated to have occurred through a provision for loan losses charged to earnings. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance.

The allowance for loan losses is evaluated on a regular basis by management and is based upon management’s periodic review of the collectibility of the loans in light of historical experience, the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, any adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, estimated value of underlying associated collateral and prevailing economic conditions. This evaluation is inherently subjective, as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available.

A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Bank will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Impairment is measured on a loan-by-loan basis for commercial and construction loans by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s obtainable market price, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent, or a combination of the above methods.

15

M&F BANCORP, INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARY

A reserve, recorded as a specific reserve in the allowance for loans losses, is established to record the difference between the stated loan amount and the present value or market value of the impaired loan. Impaired loans may be valued on a loan-by-loan basis (e.g., loans with risk characteristics unique to an individual borrower) or on an aggregate basis (e.g., loans with similar risk characteristics). The Bank’s policy for recognition of interest income on impaired loans is the same as its interest income recognition policy for non-impaired loans. The Bank discontinues the accrual of interest when the collectibility of such interest becomes doubtful. Recovery of the carrying value of loans is dependent to some extent on future economic, operating and other conditions that may be beyond the Bank’s control. For the homogeneous pools of loans that have not been specifically identified, estimates of losses are largely based on charge-off trends, expected default rates, general economic conditions and overall portfolio quality. This evaluation is inherently subjective, as it requires material estimates and unanticipated future adverse changes in such conditions could result in material adjustments to the allowance for loan losses that could adversely impact earnings in future periods.

Investment Securities – Securities not classified as either held to maturity securities or trading securities, and equity securities not classified as trading securities, are classified as “available for sale securities” and reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported within Other Comprehensive Income and as a separate component of Consolidated Shareholders’ Equity. The fair values of these securities are based on quoted market prices, dealer quotes and prices obtained from independent pricing services. Available for sale and held to maturity securities are reviewed quarterly for possible other-than-temporary impairment. The review is inherently subjective as it requires material estimates and judgments, including an analysis of the facts and circumstances of each individual investment such as the length of time the fair value has been below cost, the expectation for the security’s performance, and credit worthiness. Held to maturity and available for sale securities with fair value below their costs that represent other-than temporary impairments result in write-downs of the individual securities to their fair value. The related write-downs are included in consolidated earnings as realized losses. Bank policy prohibits trading within the portion of the bond portfolio classified as “securities to be held to maturity”. Additionally, certain of the bonds in the “available for sale” portfolio have maturities of five years or greater and, therefore these securities are subject to greater market volatility than similar securities with maturities of two years or less.

Defined Benefit Plans – As discussed in Note 9, the Company maintains a noncontributory defined benefit cash balance pension plan (the “Plan”) covering all employees who qualify under length of service and other requirements, the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“SERP”) and postretirement benefits for two former executives (the “Postretirement Plan”). The SERP, which is unfunded, provides certain individuals’ pension benefits, outside the Plan, based on average earnings, years of service and age at retirement. The Postretirement Plan provides for the payment of medical premiums for two individuals set at a maximum amount for the remainder of their lives.

We are required to make a significant number of assumptions in order to estimate the liabilities and costs related to the Plan, SERP and Postretirement Plan benefit obligations to employees and former employees under these arrangements. The assumptions that have the most impact on pension costs are the discount rate, the expected return on plan assets and the rate of compensation increases. These assumptions are evaluated relative to current market factors such as inflation, interest rates and fiscal and monetary policies. Changes in these assumptions can have a material impact on pension obligations and pension expense.

In determining the discount rate assumption, we utilize current market information and liability information provided by our external actuaries, including a discounted cash flows analysis of our pension and postretirement obligations. In particular, the basis for our discount rate selection was the yield on indices of highly rated fixed income debt securities with durations comparable to that of our plan liabilities. The Moody’s Aa Corporate Bond Index is consistently used as the basis for the discount rate with this measure confirmed by the yield on other broad bond indices. Additionally in 2006, we supplemented our discount rate decision with a yield curve analysis. The yield curve was applied to the expected future retirement plan payments to adjust the discount rate to reflect the cash flow characteristics of the plans. The yield curve was developed by the plans’ actuaries and is a hypothetical double A yield curve represented by a series of annualized discount rates reflecting bond issues having a rating of Aa or better by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or a rating of AA or better by Standard & Poor’s.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

2006 COMPARED TO 2005

Interest and fees on loans increased $0.36 million or 3.02% during 2006, which was primarily the result of higher interest rates. The yield on the loan portfolio was 7.55% for 2006 compared to 7.26% for 2005. Interest and dividends on investments increased $0.89 million, a 101.49% increase from 2005. The increase was primarily the result of higher average balances of $36.6 million in 2006, compared to $27.0 million in 2005 and higher yields on both taxable and non-taxable securities. Interest on deposits increased $1.3 million in 2006 from $0.69 million, which represents a 94.20% increase from 2005 resulting from higher interest rates and average balances outstanding. The Bank invested the majority of the deposit growth in primarily nontaxable interest-bearing deposits and investment securities. This investment decision was made in an effort to manage short-term liquidity and to be accretive to earnings in light of modest loan production. This investment strategy was the primary reason that the overall yield on earning assets increased from 6.30% in 2005 to 6.78% in 2006.

This growth in average earning assets was funded primarily through increased time deposits, as the Bank was aggressive in pursuing certificates through an internet rate service and through brokered deposits. Average time deposits increased by approximately $13.1 million when comparing 2006 to 2005. In addition to the higher average time deposit balances, the repricing of the rate paid on time deposits to higher rates also contributed to the increase in interest expense. The average rate paid on time deposits increased from 2.86% for 2005 to 4.28% for 2006. Interest on borrowed funds was stable at $0.81 million in each of 2006 and 2005.

The Bank’s overall interest rate spread decreased in 2006 to 3.68% from 3.93% in 2005 as a result of investing earning assets in interest bearing deposits with other banks, which carry relatively low interest rates and the Bank’s interest bearing liabilities repricing faster than interest earning assets.

During 2006, the Bank recorded a credit provision for loan losses of $0.05 million compared to a provision in 2005 of $0.66 million, a decrease of $0.7 million, resulting from management’s evaluation of the classified loans. In addition to evaluating the status of specific loans, management considered other factors such as the national and local economy. Total nonperforming assets decreased to $1.4 million as December 31, 2006 as compared with $5.8 million at December 31, 2005. In addition to the overall decrease in total nonperforming assets, the nonaccrual loan classification decreased from $4.7 million to $0.4 million. This decrease in total nonperforming assets and nonaccrual loans was the result of marked improvement in certain loan relationships. As a result, management has decreased the allowance for loan losses to $2.5 million as of December 31, 2006. This represents a 14.38% decrease when compared with the allowance for loan losses as of December 31, 2005.

Total noninterest income decreased $0.4 million in 2006 primarily as a result of the bounce protection program maturing, and the reduction in realized gains on the sale of Investment Securities of $0.4 million.

Total salaries and employee benefits decreased approximately $0.97 million during 2006. The Company and the Bank had a total of 87 employees, including 85 full-time equivalent employees at December 31, 2006 compared to 84 employees at December 31, 2005. In 2006, salaries and employee benefits decreased by approximately $0.42 million due to the reduction in staff of seven full time positions occurring in 2005, the cost savings of which were fully realized for the first time in 2006. The 2006 reduction in salaries and benefits was partly mitigated by a $0.01 million increase in contract labor, which is included within Other Noninterest Expense. In addition, whereas in 2005 we recognized $0.57 million in pension cost recorded in the nonqualified SERP, no such costs were recognized in 2006. Occupancy expense increased $0.09 million or 8.22% from the level in 2005 associated with higher insurance, security and repairs and maintenance costs. Miscellaneous other expenses increased $0.39 million in 2006, primarily associated with advertising and contract labor costs. This category is comprised of numerous operating expense accounts.

Income tax expense during 2006 was $0.43 million representing an effective income tax rate of 19.25%; as compared with $0.18 million and 19.25% in 2005, respectively. During 2006, the Company reversed an existing valuation reserve against recorded deferred tax assets in the amount of $0.134 million, of which a $0.010 million income tax benefit was recognized within Other Comprehensive Income and a $0.124 million income tax benefit was recognized within the results from operations. The Company continues to utilize its strategy to purchase and hold investment securities, which are tax-exempt, to manage its fully equivalent taxable yield and effective income tax rate.

2005 COMPARED TO 2004

Interest and fees on loans increased $0.4 million or 3.43% during 2005, which was primarily the result of higher interest rates. The yield on the loan portfolio was 7.26% for 2005 compared to 7.12% for 2004. Interest and dividends on investments in 2005 of $0.90 million, remained consistent with that of 2004, a 1.57% decrease from 2004. The decrease was primarily the result of lower average balances of $27.0 million in 2005 compared to $27.4 million in 2004 and lower yields on non-taxable securities. Interest on deposits increased to $3.4 million in 2005 from $2.6 million, which represented a 33.64% increase from 2004 resulting from higher interest rates and average balances outstanding. The Bank invested the majority of the deposit growth in interest bearing deposits. This investment decision was made in an effort to manage short-term liquidity and to provide funding for expected loan growth. This investment strategy was the primary reason that the overall yield on earning assets declined from 6.35% in 2004 from 6.30% in 2005.

The growth in average earning assets was funded primarily through increased time deposits, as the Bank was aggressive in pursuing certificates through an internet rate service. Average time deposits increased by approximately $12.9 million when comparing 2005 to 2004. In addition to the higher average time deposit balances, the repricing of the rate paid on time deposits to higher rates also contributed to the increase in interest expense. The average rate paid on time deposits increased from 2.23% for 2004 to 2.86% for 2005. Interest on borrowed funds increased to $0.8 million from $0.6 million, a 30.26% increase due to the average borrowing of $17.2 million for 2005 as compared with $12.9 million for 2004.

The Bank’s overall interest rate spread decreased in 2005 to 3.93% from 4.40% in 2004 as a result of investing earning assets in interest bearing deposits with other banks, which carry relatively low interest rates and the Bank’s interest bearing liabilities repricing faster than interest earning assets.

Provisions for loan losses increased $0.19 million from the prior year’s amount of $0.47 million to $0.66 million, an increase of 40.86%. The increase was the result of management’s evaluation of the classified loans. In addition to evaluating the status of specific loans, management considered other factors such as the national and local economy. Total nonperforming assets increased to $5.8 million as of December 31, 2005 as compared with $4.1 million as of December 31, 2004. In addition to the overall increase in total nonperforming assets, the non-accrual loan classification increased from $1.6 million to $4.7 million. This increase in total nonperforming assets and non-accrual loans was the result of continued deterioration in certain loan relationships. As a result, management increased the allowance for loan losses to $2.9 million as of December 31, 2005. This represented a 16.28% increase when compared with the allowance for loan losses as of December 31, 2004.

Total noninterest income increased $0.23 million in 2005 primarily as a result of the introduction of a bounce protection program in May 2005 and the realized gain on the sale of equity securities in the approximate amount of $0.36 million. The increases were partially offset by a $.04 million grant received in 2004.

Total salaries and employee benefits increased approximately $0.25 million during 2005. The Company and the Bank had a total of 84 employees, including 81 full-time equivalent employees as of December 31, 2005 compared to 96 employees as of December 31, 2004. Salaries and employee benefits decreased by approximately $0.03 million due to the reduction in staff of seven full-time positions since December 31, 2004. Offsetting this impact was the pension cost recorded in the nonqualified SERP of $0.57 million related to special termination benefits and curtailment losses recognized in 2005. Occupancy expense increased $0.2 million or 23.17% from the level in 2004. Miscellaneous other expenses increased $0.4 million in 2005. This category is comprised of numerous operating expense accounts. Increases in audit expense and consulting expense on a year-to-year basis were primarily responsible for the net of which represents a net increase in the other expense category.

Income tax expense during 2005 was $0.18 million, representing an effective income tax rate of 19.25%, as compared with $0.60 million and 34.58% in 2004, respectively. During 2005, the Company began to utilize a strategy of purchasing and holding investment securities, which are tax-exempt, as a tool to manage its fully equivalent taxable yield and effective income tax rate.

Income on non-accrual loans is included in the volume and rate variance analysis table only to the extent that it represents interest payments received.

LIQUIDITY, INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY AND MARKET RISKS

(INCLUDING QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISKS)

Liquidity reflects the Bank’s ability to meet its funding needs, which includes the extension of credit, meeting deposit withdrawals, and generally to sustain operations. In addition to its level of liquid assets, many other factors affect a bank’s ability to meet liquidity needs, including access to additional funding sources, total capital position and general market conditions.

Because a large portion of bank deposits are payable upon demand, banks must protect themselves against liquidity risk through the maintenance of adequate funds which are liquid, or can readily be converted into liquid assets. The Bank provides for liquidity by two methods: core deposits and borrowings from the FHLB. Total deposits were approximately $223.8 million at December 31, 2006. These figures compare with $203.8 million as of December 31, 2005. The Bank had advances outstanding of $17.6 million at the FHLB as of December 31, 2006 and 2005. The Bank has the availability of an additional $11.9 million from the FHLB. The Bank currently does not have a line of credit established at the Federal Reserve.

There were no residential mortgage loans sold in either 2006 or 2005. As of December 31, 2006, the Bank had approximately $24.2 million in outstanding unfunded loan commitments.

M&F BANCORP, INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARY

On December 31, 2006, the Bank’s liquidity ratio was 20.23%, compared to 24.18% on December 31, 2005, which is greater than the Bank’s target of 20.00%. The liquidity ratio is defined as the sum of net cash, overnight funds, and marketable securities divided by the sum of net deposits and short-term borrowings. Management believes the core deposit activity and available borrowings from the FHLB will be adequate to meet the short-term and long-term liquidity needs of the Bank.

During periods of rising interest rates, the Bank’s rate sensitive assets cannot be repriced as quickly as its rate sensitive liabilities. Thus, during such periods, the Bank’s net interest income will generally decrease. In periods of declining interest rates, the opposite effect would be expected to occur.

Total deposits, which include core deposits, were approximately $223.8 million at December 31, 2006 as compared to $203.8 million at the end of 2005, an increase of $20.0 million or 9.81%. Core deposits totaled $143.3 million and $138.4 million at December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The Bank considers savings accounts, demand deposits, and time deposits of less than $100,000 core deposits. The Bank continued its marketing effort to increase this stable source of funds. Increased efforts to extend the maturities of our deposit structure had minimal impact during 2006. Approximately 47.02% of interest-bearing deposits can be repriced in one year or less. This maturity structure contributes to an increased interest rate risk for the Bank.

LOANS

Total loans outstanding as of December 31, 2006 were $161.9 million, a decrease of 3.97% from the $168.6 million as of December 31, 2005. Competition for loan originations remained strong in our markets in 2006, with many institutions targeting the Bank’s traditional markets because of their desire to improve their community reinvestment ratings. The stability in total loans outstanding was primarily due to continued marketing to small businesses, churches and loan participations with other banks.

The Bank maintains an adequately diversified mix of loans. As of December 31, 2006, approximately $152.6 million, or 94.28% of the loan portfolio, was comprised of real estate loans, a modest decrease from 94.47% in the same category at the end of 2005. Real estate loans include mortgages for construction, land development, and permanent financing of nonfarm, nonresidential properties and permanent financing of residential properties.

The Bank makes real estate-secured mortgage loans to a variety of industries, with loans to churches accounting for approximately 50.20% of the commercial loan portfolio and no other particular industry group or related industries accounting for a significant portion of the commercial loan portfolio. Loans to churches made up 43.48% of the Bank’s total loans outstanding at December 31, 2006. Commercial loans and installment loans to individuals represented 2.56% and 2.48%, respectively, of the loan portfolio as of December 31, 2006. The Bank has no foreign loans.

Loans to the Company’s and the Bank’s directors, officers and other related parties totaled approximately $3.1 million as of December 31, 2006 compared to approximately $3.9 million as of December 31, 2005. Amounts available to borrow on existing lines of credit were $2.1 million and $2.2 million as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. New loans to such parties totaled approximately $0.02 million exclusive of advances on existing lines of credit while payments totaled approximately $0.85 million during 2006 exclusive of payments on existing lines of credit.

As of December 31, 2006, the Bank had outstanding unfunded loan commitments of approximately $24.2 million, compared to $29.6 million at the end of 2005. This decrease in outstanding loan commitments coincides with the reduced loan activity on a year-to-year basis.

The following table details the Bank’s nonperforming loans and other nonperforming assets:

A loan is placed on non-accrual status when, in management’s judgment, the collection of interest income becomes doubtful. Interest on loans that are classified as non-accrual is recognized when received. Interest receivable that has been accrued and is subsequently determined to have doubtful collectibility is charged to the appropriate interest income account. Past due loans are loans whose principal or interest is past due 90 days or more. In some cases, where borrowers are experiencing financial difficulties, loans may be restructured to provide terms significantly different from the original terms. As of December 31, 2006 and 2005, total non-accrual, past due, and foreclosed loans were approximately 0.86% and 3.44%, respectively, of the total loans outstanding on such dates. Total non-accrual and restructured loans decreased significantly in 2006 to $1.4 million. As of December 31, 2005, the Bank had non-accrual loans of $4.7 million in aggregate. Interest earned but not recognized on these loans was $0.11 million. During the first quarter of 2006, two significant loans of $2.8 million in aggregate were returned to accrual status. As of December 31, 2006, non-accrual loans were $0.4 million in aggregate, and related interest earned but not recognized was $0.02 million.

Management continues to work towards reducing the level of delinquencies through enhanced collection efforts and adherence to sound loan-underwriting procedures. Management regularly reviews the loan portfolio, including these loans, for collectibility and, as explained below, provides an allowance for loan losses. However, due to the uncertainties regarding trends in consumer credit and credit worthiness, it is possible that the future impact of charge-offs in any of our loan categories may exceed such allowance.

Charge-offs totaled $0.46 million in 2006, or $0.37 million net of recoveries, and $0.32 million or $0.25 million net of recoveries in 2005.

The Bank’s investment in impaired loans for the past five years ended December 31 is as follows:

LOAN PORTFOLIO

The Bank makes real estate mortgage, commercial and industrial, and consumer loans. The real estate mortgage loans are generally secured by the property, and have a maximum loan to value ratio of 80% and a term of one to five years. The commercial and industrial loans consist of secured and unsecured loans. The unsecured commercial loans are made based on the financial strength of the borrower and usually require personal guarantees from the principals of the business. The collateral for the secured commercial loans may be equipment, accounts receivable, marketable securities or deposits in the Bank. These loans typically have a maximum loan to value ratio ranging from 50% to 100%, depending on the type of underlying collateral, and a term of one to five years. The consumer loan category consists of secured and unsecured loans. The unsecured consumer loans are made based on the financial strength of the individual borrower. The collateral for secured consumer loans may be marketable securities, automobiles, recreational vehicles or deposits in the Bank. The usual term for these loans is three to five years.

As of December 31, 2006, the real estate loan portfolio (i.e., construction and mortgage) constituted 94.26% of the total loan portfolio. Included within the various categories of the real estate loan portfolio are church loans in aggregate of $70.4 million as of December 31, 2006, representing 43.48% of total loans outstanding. While this exceeds the 10% threshold for determining a concentration of credit risk within an industry, we do not consider this to be a concentration with adverse risk characteristics given the diversity of borrowers within the church loan portfolio and other sources of repayment. An industry for this purpose is defined as a group of counterparties that are engaged in similar activities and have similar economic characteristics that would cause their ability to meet contractual obligations to be similarly affected by changes in economic or other conditions. Additionally, the loan portfolio does not include concentrations of credit risk in loan products that permit the deferral of principal payments or payments that are smaller than normal interest accruals (negative amortization); loans with high loan-to-values ratios; and loans, such as option adjustable-rate mortgages, that may expose the borrower to future increases in repayments that are in excess of increases that would result solely from increases in market interest rates.

The Bank had no interest-only home equity lines of credit as of either December 31, 2006 and 2005.

PROVISIONS AND ALLOWANCES FOR LOAN LOSSES

Management considers the allowance for probable loan losses adequate to cover loan losses on the loans outstanding as of each reporting period. It must be emphasized, however, that the determination of the allowance using the Bank’s procedures and methods rests upon various assumptions such as delinquency ratios, adversely classified loans, five year average charge-off history, loan growth, the current ratio of outstanding loans to the allowance for loan losses and future factors affecting loans. No assurance can be given that the Bank will not, in any particular period, sustain loan losses that are sizable in relation to the amount reserved or that subsequent evaluations of the loan portfolio, in light of conditions and factors then prevailing, will not require significant changes in the allowance for possible loan losses or future charges to earnings.

The allowance for loan losses is created by direct charges to operations. Losses on loans are charged against the allowance for loan losses in the accounting period in which they are determined by management to be uncollectible. Recoveries during the period are credited to the allowance for loan losses.

26

M&F BANCORP, INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARY

Impaired loans are measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate or, as a practical matter, at the loan’s observable market value or fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. Loans measured by fair value of the underlying collateral are commercial loans; others consist of homogenous small balance loans and are measured collectively. The Bank classifies a loan as impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Bank will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the respective loan agreement. As of December 31, 2006 and 2005, the recorded investment in loans that are considered impaired, totaled approximately $4.0 million and $3.6 million, respectively. The related allowance for loan losses for these loans was $1.3 million and $0.5 million as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Impaired loans of $3.7 million and $3.5 million for 2006 and 2005 were collateralized with real estate.

Management realizes that general economic trends greatly affect loan losses, and no assurances can be made that further charges to the loan loss allowance may not be significant in relation to the amount provided during a particular period or that further evaluation of the loan portfolio based on conditions then prevailing may not require sizable additions to the allowance, thus necessitating similarly sizable charges to operations. The allowance for loan losses was 1.57%, 1.77% and 1.51% of net loans outstanding as of December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively, which was consistent with both management’s desire for strong reserves and the credit quality ratings of the loan portfolio. The allowance for loan losses was lower as of December 31, 2006 because the Bank remediated two significant loan relationships during 2006. The decrease in the loan loss provision resulted from the review of the corresponding decrease in the level of nonperforming and impaired loans, and the evaluation of the current risks in the loan portfolio. The ratio of net charge-offs during the year to average loans outstanding during the period was 0.23%, 0.15% and 0.14% as of December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively. These ratios reflect management’s conservative lending and effective efforts to recover credit losses.

INVESTMENT SECURITIES

The investment portfolio is managed to provide a balance between liquidity and attractive yields. An increasing amount of emphasis is being placed on managing the interest rate risk of the Bank. Therefore, future investment activity will be influenced by the asset liability mix and maturity requirements of the Bank. In addition, the Bank strategically utilizes tax-exempt investment securities to merge to a targeted annual effective rate. The investment portfolio is categorized as “available for sale” and “held to maturity”. The “available for sale” portion of the portfolio can be used to meet the liquidity needs of the Bank, while the “held to maturity” portion is intended primarily for investment purposes. On December 31, 2006 and 2005, $53.2 million or 100.00% and $30.6 million or 99.38%, respectively, of the Bank’s investment portfolio was classified as “available for sale”.

Bank policy prohibits trading within the bond portfolio classified as “securities held to maturity”. Additionally, more of the bonds in the “available for sale” portfolio have maturities of five years or greater and, therefore, these securities are subject to greater market volatility than similar securities with maturities of two years or less. The following table provides information regarding the composition of the Bank’s investment securities portfolio at the end of each of the past three years.

RISK FACTORS

Interest Rate Risk. The income of the Bank is highly dependent on “interest rate differentials” and the resulting net interest margins (i.e., the difference between the interest rates earned on the Bank’s interest-earning assets such as loans and securities, and the interest rates paid on the Bank’s interest-bearing liabilities such as deposits and borrowings). These rates are highly sensitive to many factors, which are beyond the Bank’s control, including general economic conditions, inflation, recession and the policies of various governmental and regulatory agencies, in particular, the Federal Reserve Bank. The Bank is generally adversely affected by rising interest rates. In addition, changes in monetary policy, including changes in interest rates, influence the origination of loans, the purchase of investments and the generation of deposits and affect the rates received on loans and securities and paid on deposits, which could have a material adverse effect on the Bank’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

Technological Advances Impact Bank’s Business. The banking industry is undergoing technological changes and frequent introductions of new technology-driven products and services. In addition to improving customer services, the effective use of technology increases efficiency and enables financial institutions to reduce cost. The Bank’s future success will depend, in part, on the Bank’s ability to address the needs of its customers by using technology to provide products and services that will satisfy customer demands for convenience as well as to create additional efficiencies in its operations. Many competitors have substantially greater resources to invest in technological improvements, and this creates a challenge for the Bank.

The Bank Competes with Much Larger Banks for Some of the Same Business. The banking and financial services business in our market area continues to be competitive and becomes more competitive as additional branches are constructed. The Bank competes for loans, deposits and customers with various bank and non-bank financial services providers, some of which are much larger in terms of their total assets and capitalization, have greater access to capital markets and offer a broader range of financial services.

Government Regulation and Legislation. The Company and the Bank are subject to extensive state and federal regulation, supervision and legislation, which govern almost all aspects of the operations of the Company and the Bank. The business of the Bank is particularly susceptible to being affected by the enactment of federal and state legislation, which may have the effect of increasing or decreasing the cost of doing business, modifying permissible activities or enhancing the competitive position of other financial institutions. Such laws are subject to change from time to time and are primarily intended for the protection of consumers, depositors and the deposit insurance funds and not for the protection of shareholders of the Company. The Company cannot predict what effect any presently contemplated or future changes in the laws or regulations or their interpretations would have on the business and prospects of the Company, but it could be material and adverse. See “Item 1. Description of Business -Supervision and Regulation.”

Allowance for Loan Losses not Sufficient to Absorb Actual Loan Losses. If the allowance for loan losses is not sufficient to cover actual loan losses, the earnings could decrease. The Bank frequently evaluates the adequacy of the allowance of loan losses to cover loan losses by reviewing the collectibility of the loans in light of historical experience, the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, value of any underlying collateral, and prevailing economic conditions. In addition, bank regulatory agencies periodically review our allowance for loan losses and based on their judgments may require that additions be made to the allowance for loan losses. These evaluations may result in significant additions to the allowance for loan losses, which could impact net earnings.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of M&F Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiary (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2006, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of M&F Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiary as of December 31, 2006, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of Operations—M&F Bancorp (the “Company”), Inc. is the bank holding company for Mechanics and Farmers Bank (the “Bank”), a state chartered commercial bank incorporated in North Carolina (“NC”) in 1907, which began operations in 1908. The Bank has nine offices in NC: three in Durham, two in Raleigh, three in Charlotte and one in Winston-Salem. The Company, headquartered in Durham, operates in a single business segment and offers a wide variety of consumer and commercial banking services and products almost exclusively in NC.

Basis of Presentation—The consolidated financial statements include the accounts and transactions of M&F Bancorp, Inc. and Mechanics and Farmers Bank, its wholly owned subsidiary. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company reclassified interest income from interest and dividends on investment securities, - taxable to interest and dividends on investment securities, - tax-exempt in order to conform with the current year presentation of those securities. Such reclassifications had no impact on net income or shareholder’s equity. The Company believes that this change on presentation more appropriately classifies this interest income under industry practice and generally accepted accounting principles.

Segment Reporting—SFAS No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information, requires that an enterprise report selected information about operating segments in its financial reports issued to its shareholders. Based on an analysis performed by the Company, management has determined that the Company only has one operating segment, which is commercial banking. The chief operating decision-maker uses consolidated results to make operating and strategic decisions, and therefore, are not required to disclose any additional segment information.

Cash and Cash Equivalents—Substantially all of the cash and cash equivalents are comprised of highly liquid short-term investments that are carried at cost, which approximates market value. Cash equivalents include demand and time deposits (with original maturities of 90 days or less) at other financial institutions totaling $34.9 million and $28.7 million at December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

The Federal Reserve Bank (“Federal Reserve”) and banking laws in NC require certain banks to maintain average balances in relation to specific percentages of their customers’ deposits as a reserve. As of December 31, 2006 and 2005, average required balances for the Bank were $1.9 million and $2.1 million, respectively.

Investment Securities—Debt securities that the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as “held to maturity securities” and reported at amortized cost. Debt and equity securities that are bought and held principally for the purpose of selling in the near term are classified as “trading securities” and reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses included in consolidated earnings. Debt securities not classified as either held to maturity securities or trading securities, and equity securities not classified as trading securities, are classified as “available for sale securities” and reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from consolidated earnings and reported as a separate component of consolidated shareholders’ equity and as an item of other comprehensive income. Gains and losses on held for investment securities are recognized at the time of sale based upon the specific identification method. Declines in the fair value of individual held to maturity and available for sale securities below their costs that are other than temporary result in write-downs of the individual securities to their respective fair value. The related write-downs are included in consolidated earnings as realized losses. Premiums and discounts are recognized in interest income using the interest method over the period to maturity. Transfers of securities between classifications are accounted for at fair value. No securities have been classified as trading securities as of December 31, 2006 and 2005. During 2006 and 2005, there have been no transfers between classifications.

Other Invested Assets—Other invested assets includes investments in FHLB Stock and non-marketable equity securities, which are carried at historical cost, as adjusted for any other than temporary impairment loss.

Loans—Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future, or until maturity or pay-off generally are reported at their outstanding unpaid principal balances adjusted for charge-offs and any deferred fees or costs on originated loans.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Bank will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Impairment is measured on a loan-by-loan basis by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s obtainable market price, the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent, or a combination of the above methods.

Allowances for Loan Losses—The allowance for loan losses is established as losses are estimated to have occurred through a provision for loan losses charged to the results of operations. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance.

The allowance for loan losses is evaluated on a regular basis by management and is based upon management’s periodic review of the collectibility of the loans in light of historical experience, the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying collateral, and prevailing economic conditions at each balance sheet date. This evaluation is inherently subjective, as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available. Unanticipated future adverse changes in the items discussed above could result in material adjustments to the allowance for loan losses.

Bank Premises and Equipment, Net—Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. For financial reporting purposes, depreciation and amortization are computed by the straight-line method and are charged to operations over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from 15 to 30 years for premises and three to 30 years for furniture and equipment. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the terms of the respective leases or the useful lives of the improvements, whichever is shorter. Rights under capital leases are amortized over the minimum committed term pursuant to the lease on a straight-line basis. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations in the year incurred. Gains and losses on dispositions are included in the results of operations. The Bank reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of such assets may not be recoverable. If the sum of the expected cash flows attributable to an asset is less than the stated amount of the asset, an impairment loss is recognized in the current period and charged to operations.

Cash Surrender Value of Life Insurance—The Company and the Bank maintain life insurance on certain officers and directors with the Company and the Bank as owner and beneficiary. The related cash surrender value of the policies at December 31, 2006 and 2005 was $4.8 million and $5.1 million, respectively. During 2006 and 2005, the cash surrender value of these policies, as reflected in Other Noninterest Income within the Consolidated Statements of Income, increased by $0.18 million. During 2006, two of the bank owned life insurance policies matured, resulting in a gain of $0.20 million. The Bank has reflected aggregate death benefits receivable of $0.47 million in Other Assets within Consolidated Balance Sheets. In addition, certain key person life insurance policies were surrendered during 2006.

Other Real Estate Owned—Assets acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are held for sale and are initially recorded at fair value less cost to sell at the date of foreclosure, establishing a new cost basis. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are performed by management and the assets are carried at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less estimated costs to sell.

Other real estate owned and acquired through foreclosure totaling $0.95 million and $0.54 million as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively, is stated at the lower of cost or fair value less estimated costs to sell and is recorded in Other Assets within the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Loan losses arising from the acquisition of such properties are charged against the allowance for loan losses. There is no allowance for loss on foreclosed real estate as of December 31, 2006 and 2005. In addition, no amounts were provided for losses on foreclosed real estate during 2006, 2005 and 2004. Revenue and expenses incurred in connection with operating the properties, subsequent write-downs and gains or losses upon sale are included in other non-interest income and expense.

Accounting for Guarantees—In the ordinary course of business, the Bank has written certain irrevocable stand-by letters of credit, which guarantee payment to a named beneficiary of a specified financial obligation (the “Guarantees”). The Bank accounts for these Guarantees in accordance with FASB Interpretation No. 45, Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others. The Company believes that the fair value of these guarantees as of December 31, 2006 and 2005 is de minimus based on cash collateral, the right of offset with existing cash deposits and/or the probability of a triggering event requiring payment by the Bank.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Stock Dividend—In November 2004, the Board of Directors approved a 100% stock dividend, each shareholder of record at the close of business on December 20, 2004 was entitled to receive one additional share of stock for each share of stock owned on the record date (“the stock dividend”). The payment date was January 10, 2005. The stock dividend increased the number of common shares outstanding to 1,685,646 as of December 31, 2004 from 842,823. In addition, outstanding stock options as of January 11, 2005 increased to 110,400 from 55,200 at a grant price of $7.84 (i.e., options and per share grant price have been adjusted for the effects of the stock dividends). All share and per share amounts have been adjusted to reflect this stock dividend.

Earnings Per Share—Earnings per share are calculated on the basis of the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the purpose of computing the basic and the weighted average number of shares outstanding of common stock plus dilutive common stock equivalents, such as stock options, for the purpose of computing diluted earnings per share. The stock dividend increased the number of common shares outstanding to 1,685,646 as of December 31, 2004. In addition, outstanding stock options as of December 31, 2004 increased to 110,400 from 55,200 at a grant price of $7.84. The effect of the stock dividend has been retroactively applied for purposes of calculating earnings per share for 2004.

Loan Interest Income Recognition—Accrual of interest on loans is based generally on the daily amount of principal outstanding. Loans are considered past due when either principal or interest payments are delinquent by 30 or more days. It is the Bank’s policy to discontinue the accrual of interest on loans based on the payment status and evaluation of the related collateral and the financial strength of the borrower. The accrual of interest income is normally discontinued when a loan becomes 90 days past due as to principal or interest. Management may elect to continue the accrual of interest when the loan is well secured and in process of collection. When interest accruals are discontinued, interest accrued and not collected in the current year is reversed and interest accrued and not collected from prior years is charged to the appropriate interest income account. Interest income realized on impaired loans is recognized upon receipt if the impaired loan is on a non-accrual basis. Accrual of interest on non-accrual loans may be resumed if the loan is brought current and following a period of substantial performance, including four months of regular principal and interest payments. Accrual of interest on impaired loans is generally continued unless the loan becomes delinquent 90 days or more. Cash receipts are credited first to interest unless the loan has been converted to non-accrual, in which case, the receipts are applied to principal.

Loan Fee Income—Loan origination and underwriting fees are recorded as a reduction of direct costs associated with loan processing, including salaries, review of legal documents, obtainment of appraisals, and other direct costs. Net loan costs have not been deferred and amortized as the Company considers such amounts not significant. Loan commitment fees are deferred and amortized over the related commitment period. Deferred loan fees were $0.4 million as of December 31, 2006 and $0.5 million as of December 31, 2005, respectively.

Advertising Cost—Adverting costs are expensed as incurred.

Operating Leases—Income and expense associated with operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the minimum term of each respective lease (see Note 10).

Stock-Based Compensation— The Company maintains an Employee Stock Option Plan, which is described more fully in Note 8, and provides for grants of incentive stock options. This plan has been presented to and approved by the Bank’s shareholders. The Company is the successor issuer to the Bank. Through December 31, 2005, the Company accounted for this plan under the recognition and measurement principles of Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations. Accordingly, no stock-based employee compensation cost has been recognized, as all options granted under this plan had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

No stock options were granted in 2006, 2005 or 2004. As of December 31, 2004, all outstanding stock options were fully vested and, accordingly, net income and earnings per share would have been affected only for 2004 if compensation cost for the stock-based compensation plan had been determined based on the grant date fair values of awards (the method described in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation). Such effects would have been as follows:

dollars in thousands, except per share amounts	2004
Net income as reported	$	1,139
Deduct : Total stock-based employee compensation expense determined under fair value based method for all awards, net of related tax effects		(17	)
Pro forma net income	$	1,122
Net income per share as reported:
Basic	$	0.68
Diluted	$	0.66
Pro forma net income per share:
Basic	$	0.67
Diluted	$	0.65

The Company estimated an option value at $1.10 on the date of grant in order to compute its estimation of compensation expense during 2004 associated with the fair value method using the Black-Scholes Model. The following assumptions were used:

Risk-free rate	5.50	%
Average expected term (years)	5 years
Expected volatility	18.22	%
Expected dividend yield	4.76	%

In December 2004, SFAS No. 123 (R), Share-Based Payment, which is a revision of Statement No. 123, was issued. As of January 1, 2006, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment. Any stock-based employee compensation for future grants will be determined and recorded at that time using the Black-Scholes or another appropriate option-pricing model with the following assumptions: option price, dividend yield, expected volatility, risk free interest rate and the expected life.

Income Taxes—Provisions for income taxes are based on amounts reported in the consolidated statements of income (after exclusion of non-taxable income such as interest on state and municipal securities) and include changes in deferred income taxes. Deferred taxes are computed using the asset and liability approach. The tax effects of differences between the tax and financial accounting basis of assets and liabilities are reflected in the balance sheet at the tax rates expected to be in effect when the differences reverse.

The Company makes judgments regarding the reliability of its deferred tax assets. In accordance with SFAS 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, the carrying value of the net deferred tax assets is based on the belief that it is more likely than not that the Company will generate sufficient future taxable income to realize these deferred tax assets after consideration of all available evidence. The Company regularly reviews its deferred tax assets for recoverability considering historical profitability, projected future taxable income, and the expected timing of the reversals of existing temporary differences and tax planning strategies.

Valuation allowances have been established for deferred tax assets, which the Company believes do not meet the “more likely than not” criteria established by SFAS 109. If the Company is subsequently able to utilize all or a portion of the deferred tax assets for which a valuation allowance has been established, as was the case in 2006, then the Company may be required to recognize these deferred tax assets through the reduction of the valuation allowance which would result in a material benefit to its results of operations in the period in which the benefit is determined, excluding the recognition of the portion of the valuation allowance which relates to net deferred tax assets acquired in a business combination, were created as a result of share-based payments or are associated with components of Other Comprehensive Income (“OCI”). The recognition of the portion of the valuation allowance related to net deferred tax assets associated with components of other comprehensive income is recognized within OCI.

Comprehensive Income—Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that recognized revenue, expenses, gains and losses be included in net income. Although certain changes in assets and liabilities, such as unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities and adjustments relating to defined benefit plans are reported as separate components of the equity section of the balance sheet, such items, along with net income, are components of comprehensive income.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Use of Estimates—The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses and pension liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

During 2006, the Company did have two significant changes in estimate. First, in connection with the scheduled information system conversion during 2007 (see Note 16), the Bank accelerated the amortization of certain prepaid expenses and depreciation of certain equipment to coincide with the scheduled conversion date, resulting in additional expenses recognized during 2006 of $0.094 million.

Also during 2006, the Company determined that a portion of the existing valuation allowance associated with its deferred tax assets was no longer necessary based on the “more likely than not” threshold. Accordingly, $0.134 million of existing valuation allowance was reversed of which $0.123 million has been included within the provision for income taxes (see Note 7).

Significant Group Concentrations—Most of the Bank’s activities are with customers located within the NC region of the country. The Bank does have significant concentrations with respect to loans and deposits with several customers as outlined in Notes 3 and 12.

Financial Instruments—In the ordinary course of business, the Bank has entered into off-balance sheet financial instruments, consisting of commitments to extend credit and commercial letters of credit. Such financial instruments are recorded in the financial statements when they are funded or related fees are incurred or received.

New Accounting Pronouncements—On May 30, 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Correction, which changes the requirements for the accounting and reporting of a change in principle. SFAS No. 154 applies to all voluntary changes in accounting principle as well as to changes required by an accounting pronouncement that does not include specific transition provisions. SFAS No. 154 requires that changes in accounting principles be retroactively applied as of the beginning of the first period presented as if that principle had always been used. Each period presented is adjusted to reflect the period-specific effects of applying the change. SFAS No. 154 is effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. The adoption of SFAS No. 154 had no effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

In February 2006, the Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) released Issue 06-4, Accounting for Deferred Compensation and Postretirement Benefit Aspects of Endorsement Split-Dollar Life Insurance Arrangements (“EITF 06-4”). EITF 06-4 discussed the diversity in practice regarding the accounting for a postretirement benefit associated with an endorsement split-dollar insurance arrangement, specifically whether a company should record a liability for the obligation associated with the postretirement benefit that is being provided either in the form of a substantive agreement to maintain a life insurance policy during the employee’s retirement or to provide a future death benefit (collectively, the “Postretirement Benefits”). On September 7, 2006, the EITF affirmed a consensus that a liability should be recorded for any committed Postretirement Benefits in accordance with existing guidance pursuant to SFAS 106, “Employers’ Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions” or Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 12, “Omnibus Opinion – 1967 (Deferred Compensation Contracts), and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007. The Company will continue to monitor this issue and will evaluate the impact, if any, on its consolidated financial position and consolidated results of operations. The Bank is a party to certain split-dollar arrangements with three current or former executives.

In February 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 155, “Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments”, an amendment of SFAS No. 133 and SFAS No. 140. This statement permits fair value re-measurement for any hybrid financial instrument that contains an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation. It establishes a requirement to evaluate interests in securitized financial assets to identify interests that are freestanding derivatives or that are hybrid financial instruments that contain an embedded derivative requiring bifurcation. In addition, SFAS 155 clarifies which interest-only strips and principal-only strips are not subject to the requirements of Statement 133. It also clarifies that concentrations of credit risk in the form of subordination are not embedded derivatives. SFAS 155 amends Statement 140 to eliminate the prohibition on a qualifying special purpose entity from holding a derivative financial instrument that pertains to a beneficial interest other than another derivative financial instrument. This Statement is effective for all financial instruments acquired or issued after the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006. The Company and the Bank do not presently have any derivative instruments and believes this new accounting standard will have no impact on its consolidated financial condition or consolidated results of operation.

In March 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 156, “Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets”. This Statement amends SFAS No. 140, “Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities”, and requires that all separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities be initially measured at fair value, if practicable, and permits the entities to elect either fair value measurement with changes in fair value reflected in earnings or the amortization and impairment requirements of SFAS No. 140 for subsequent measurement. The subsequent measurement of separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities at fair value eliminates the necessity for entities that manage the risks inherent in servicing assets and servicing liabilities with derivatives to qualify for hedge accounting treatment and eliminates the characterization of declines in fair value as impairments or direct write-downs. This Statement is effective as of the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006. The Company does not believe this new accounting standard will have a material impact on its consolidated financial condition or consolidated results of operations.

In June 2006, the EITF released Issue 06-5, Accounting for Purchased of Life Insurance – Determining the Amount that could be Realized in Accordance with FASB Technical Bulletin 85-4, Accounting for Purchases of Life Insurance. EITF 06-5 discussed the diversity in practice regarding consideration of any additional amounts (other than cash surrender value) included in the contractual terms of the policy in determining the amount that could be realized under the insurance contract. On September 7, 2006, the EITF confirmed a consensus that a policyholder should determine the amount that could be realized under an insurance contract assuming the surrender on a policy-by-policy basis. Amounts that are recoverable by the policyholder at the discretion of the insurance company should be excluded from the amount that could be realized. Amounts recoverable by the policyholder in periods beyond one year from the surrender of the policy should be discounted utilizing an appropriate rate of interest. EITF 06-5 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company will continue to monitor this issue and will evaluate the impact on its consolidated financial position and consolidated results of operations.

In June 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 clarifies when tax benefits should be recorded in financial statements, requires certain disclosures of uncertain tax matters and indicates how any tax reserves should be classified in a balance sheet. FIN 48 is effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2007. The Company has identified two tax positions, with an aggregate tax-effected value of $0.270 million, taken within its 2004 and 2005 returns for which it has filed a change in method election with the Internal Revenue Service, (the “Election”). Based on an external consultation, management believes the probability to be highly certain that the Election will be approved during (and will be effective in) 2007. Accordingly, management does not currently believe that the adoption of FIN 48 will have a material impact on its consolidated financial position or consolidated results of operations.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. This statement provides a single definition of fair value, a framework for measuring fair value, and expanded disclosures concerning fair value. Previously, different definitions of fair value were contained in various accounting pronouncements creating inconsistencies in measurement and disclosures. SFAS No. 157 applies under those previously issued pronouncements that prescribe fair value as the relevant measure of value, except SFAS No. 123(R) and related interpretations and pronouncements that require or permit measurement similar to fair value but are not intended to measure fair value. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company is evaluating the impact of this new standard, but currently believes that adoption will not have a material impact on its financial position or consolidated results of operations.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 158, “Employer’s Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans” (an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132R). SFAS 158 requires an employer to recognize in its statement of financial position an asset for a plan’s over funded status or a liability for a plan’s under funded status, measure a plan’s assets and its obligations that determine its funded status as of the end of the employer’s fiscal year (with limited exceptions), and recognize changes in the funded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan in the year in which the changes occur. Those changes are reported in comprehensive income and as a separate component of shareholders’ equity. The Company sponsors two defined benefit plans, each of which was impacted by the adoption of SFAS 158 as more fully described in Note 9. SFAS 158 was effective for the Company in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006.

In September 2006, the SEC’s Office of the Chief Accountant and Divisions of Corporation Finance and Investment Management released SAB No. 108, Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements (“SAB No. 108”), that provides interpretive guidance on how the effects of the carryover or reversal of prior year misstatements should be considered in quantifying a current year misstatement. The SEC staff believes that registrants should quantify errors using both a balance sheet and an income statement approach and evaluate whether either approach results in quantifying a misstatement that, when all relevant quantitative and qualitative factors are considered, is material. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years ending after November 15, 2006. The Company has adopted SAB No. 108 and has found there to be no material impact on its consolidated financial position or consolidated results of operations.

During 2006, the SEC significantly revised and expanded the disclosure requirements relating to executive and director compensation, related party transactions, director independence and other corporate governance matters. The new rules affect the compensation and corporate governance disclosure that is included in proxy statements, annual reports and registration statements, and modify the current (Form 8-K) reporting requirements relating to executive and director compensation arrangements. The new disclosure rules will apply to proxy and registration statements filed on or after December 15, 2006.

As of December 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005, the fair value of securities with gross unrealized losses by length of time that the individual securities have been in an unrealized loss position is as follows:

All securities owned as of December 31, 2006 are investment grade. The unrealized losses are attributable to changes in market interest rates. The Bank believes that all of the unrealized losses are temporary in nature. As of December 31, 2006, the Bank held certain investment positions with unrealized losses that, in the aggregate, were not material to the Company’s consolidated financial position or consolidated statements of income. These investments were in U.S. government sponsored agencies, State and county municipals and mortgage-backed securities. The cash flows are guaranteed by the issuing agency and/or third-party insurers and, therefore, it is expected that the securities would not be settled at a price less than principal balance at maturity. In analyzing an issuer’s financial condition, management considers whether the securities are issued by the federal government or its agencies, whether downgrades by bond rating agencies have occurred, and industry analysts’ reports. As management has the ability to hold debt securities until maturity, or for the foreseeable future if classified as available for sale, no declines are deemed to be other than temporary.

In connection with certain borrowing activities and deposit relationships with local governments, as of December 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005, the Company has pledged cash and cash equivalents and certain investment securities as collateral as required by law, as follows:

dollars in thousands	December 31, 2006		December 31, 2005
Cash and cash equivalents	$	490	$	—
Investment securities, at fair value		23,079		28,592
Total	$	23,569	$	28,592

As of December 31, 2006 and 2005, the Bank had commitments outstanding to purchase $1.5 million and none, respectively, in “when issued” securities. These securities are not recorded in the balance sheet until the settlement dates.

Total loans, net of deferred fees	$	161,514	$	168,149
Nonperforming assets as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, are as follows:
Non-accrual loans		405		4,678
Loans 90 days or more past due and still accruing interest		39		559
Foreclosed properties, included in Other Assets		951		544
Total nonperforming assets	$	1,395	$	5,781

There were no restructured loans at December 31, 2006 and 2005. If interest income on non-accrual loans had been accrued, such income would have been $0.02 million, $0.11 million and $0.07 million in 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively. These amounts are not included in income.

During 2006 and 2005, the Bank had no loan sales. In 2004, the Bank sold residential real estate mortgage loans of $3.3 million, resulting in realized gains of $0.1 million. Realized gains on the sale of mortgage loans are included in Other Income within the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income.

The Bank’s retail, commercial and real estate loans in North Carolina create a significant geographic concentration. As of December 31, 2006 and 2005, church loans represent a concentration of 50.20% and 49.02%, respectively, of real estate mortgage loans.

The Bank has, and expects to have in the future, banking transactions in the ordinary course of business with several of its (and the Company’s) directors, officers and their associates on the same terms, including interest rate and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with others in the normal course of business. Those transactions do not involve more than the normal risk of collectibility nor do they present any unfavorable features. The aggregate amount of loans outstanding to such related parties as of December 31, 2006 and 2005 were approximately $3.1 million and $3.9 million, respectively. Amounts available to borrow on existing lines of credit were $2.1 million and $2.2 million as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. New loans to such parties totaled approximately $0.02 million exclusive of advances on existing lines of credit while payments totaled approximately $0.85 million during 2006, exclusive of payments on existing lines of credit.

5. BANK PREMISES AND EQUIPMENT, NET

The Bank owned a parcel of land that was purchased with the intent of constructing a branch banking facility. This parcel was classified as land and grouped with premises and equipment in 2004. During 2005, the Bank reclassified this parcel of land to assets held for sale at a carrying value of $0.6 million. This land was sold during 2006, resulting in a realized gain of $0.02 million, which is included in Other Noninterest Income within the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income.

Total deferred tax liabilities		(661	)		(659	)
Net deferred tax assets	$	1,143		$	1,004

During 2006, the Company determined that the existing valuation allowance associated with its deferred tax assets, other than related to the state net economic loss carryover, was no longer necessary based on the “more likely than not” threshold. Accordingly, $0.13 million of existing valuation allowance was reversed, of which $0.12 million has been included within the 2006 provision for income taxes and $0.01 million has been included in Other Comprehensive Loss. Net deferred tax assets are included in Other Assets within the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

8. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

Stock Option Plan—The Company has a stock option plan, approved in 1999 (the “Option Plan”), under which the Company may grant options to selected officers of the Company and the Bank for up to 171,000 shares of common stock. Under the plan, the exercise price of each option equals the market price of the Company’s stock on the date of grant, and an option’s maximum term is 10 years. Options vest over 5 years based on years of service and become 100% vested at either age 55, with 30 years of service, or at age 65.

9. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

The Bank sponsors a noncontributory defined benefit cash balance pension plan (the “Plan”), covering all employees who qualify under length of service and other requirements. Under the Plan, retirement benefits are based on years of service and average earnings. The Bank’s funding policy is to contribute amounts to the Plan sufficient to meet the minimum funding requirements set forth in the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, plus such additional amounts as the Bank may determine to be appropriate. Contributions totaled $0.71 million, $0.23 million and $0.11 million for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively. As the Plan is fully funded as of December 31, 2006, the Bank does not expect to provide any funding to the Plan in 2007, nor will there be a minimum contribution in 2007. The measurement date for the Plan is December 31 and prior service costs and benefits are amortized on a straight-line basis over the average remaining service period of active participants.

An unrestricted lump sum distribution of retirement benefits was inadvertently paid out of the Plan to a former highly compensated employee (“HCE”) during the quarter ended June 30, 2005. The lump sum payment to the former HCE should have been made as a restricted lump sum payment under the terms of the Plan. Several alternative methods were available to correct this error. The Company evaluated these alternatives, as well as the associated liability to the benefit plan, and the Company took corrective action by pledging specific government securities to the Plan. This action occurred prior to the filing of the 2005 Annual Report on Form 10-KSB. The only cost related to this action is the cost of maintaining a security escrow account. The financial impact of this corrective action does not have a material effect on the consolidated financial condition of the Company.

The market-related value of Plan assets is equal to the fair value.

The Plan’s assets are invested in a diversified portfolio of equities and fixed income securities. Several money managers are each responsible for investing a portion of Plan assets according to their respective areas of specialty. The specific investment strategy adopted by the Plan is called the Long Term Growth of Capital strategy, which attempts to achieve long-term growth of capital with little concern for current income. The target range of allocation percentages for each major category of plan assets is as follows: U.S. equities (66%) Non-U.S. Equities (7%) and Fixed Income (27%).

The Plan’s weighted average asset allocations as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, by asset category, are as follows:

	Plan Assets As of December 31,
Asset Category	2006		2005
Equity securities	65.0	%	69.6	%

Real estate	1.30	%	1.7	%
All other assets	13.7	%	4.0	%
Total	100.0	%	100.0	%

The expected long-term rates of return on Plan assets were determined by considering long-term historical returns for the Plan and long-term projected returns based on the Plan’s target asset allocations.

Participation in the SERP is at the discretion of the Bank’s Board of Directors. The Bank has purchased bank owned life insurance (“BOLI”) in the aggregate amount of approximately $13.0 million face value and $4.8 million cash value as of December 31, 2006, covering all the participants in the SERP. Contributions totaled $0.14 million, $0.07 million and $.03 million for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively. The Bank has the ability and the intent to keep this life insurance in force indefinitely. The insurance proceeds may be used, at the Bank’s sole discretion, to fund the benefits payable under the SERP.

The accrued liability and accumulated benefit obligations for the SERP of $2.085 million and $2.116 million as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively, is included in Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities within the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Bank expects contributions to be approximately $0.154 million for the year ending December 31, 2007.

In 2005, the Bank recorded special termination benefits of $0.89 million related to a benefit improvement for a retiring executive. In 2005, the Bank also recorded an expense of $0.06 million related to the termination of an executive and the announced early retirement of another executive.

401(k) Plan—The Bank sponsors a 401(k) plan. Participation in the 401(k) plan is voluntary and employees become eligible after completing 90 days of service and attaining age 21. Employees may elect to contribute up to 12% of their compensation to the 401(k) plan. The Bank matches 100% of employee contributions up to 6% of each employee’s compensation. The Bank’s contributions to the 401(k) plan were $0.13 million, $0.12 million and for $0.18 million for 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

Deferred Compensation Plan—The Bank sponsors a nonqualified deferred compensation plan. The plan, which is unfunded, provides for certain management employees to defer compensation in order to provide retirement and death benefits on behalf of such employees. The plan allows certain management employees to receive the balance of the 6% Bank match on the 401(k) plan that would otherwise be forfeited to comply with the Internal Revenue Code. At December 31, 2006 and 2005, the amount of the deferred compensation plan liability was $0.5 million and $0.6 million, respectively.

Postretirement Benefits—The Bank provides certain postretirement benefits to select executive officers. As of December 31, 2006 and 2005, the amount of the liability for these benefits was approximately $0.16 million.

10. LEASES

The Bank leases premises and equipment under various operating lease agreements that provide for the payment of property taxes, insurance and maintenance costs. Generally, operating leases provide for one or more renewal options on the same basis as current rental terms. Certain leases require increased rentals under cost-of-living escalation clauses. The following are future minimum lease payments as required under the agreements:

13. RECONCILIATIONS OF BASIC AND DILUTED EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) are computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Basic EPS excludes the dilutive effect that could occur if any securities or the contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into or resulted in the issuance of common stock. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income by the sum of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period plus the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potentially dilutive common shares had been issued. No stock options were antidilutive in 2006, 2005, and 2004. The following table displays the EPS reconciliation for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005, and 2004.

14. REGULATION AND REGULATORY RESTRICTIONS

The primary source of funds for the payment of dividends by the Company is dividends received from the Bank. The Bank, as a NC, state charted banking corporation, may pay dividends only out of undivided profits as determined pursuant to North Carolina General Statutes Section 53-87. Additionally, dividends paid by the Bank to the Company may be limited due to maintaining capital requirements imposed by banking regulators. Management does not expect any of these restrictions to materially limit its ability to pay dividends comparable to those paid in the past. As of December 31, 2006, the Bank had undivided profits, as defined, of $15.7 million.

The Company and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and the possibility of additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company and the Bank’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of their assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors. Prompt corrective action provisions are not applicable to bank holding companies.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below) of total and Tier 1 capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined), and Tier 1 capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined). Management believes, as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, that the Company and the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.

As of December 31, 2006, the most recent notification received from the FDIC categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized, the Bank must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the table. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the Bank’s category.

As a result of this examination, the Bank agreed to, among other things, improve loan asset quality, underwriting and credit administration, increase liquidity, review all overhead costs, continue to evaluate the allowance for loan losses due to increases in the level of classified loans and more closely monitor capital ratios and requirements.

16. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Bank is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit, standby letters of credit and financial guarantees. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk beyond the amount recognized on the consolidated balance sheets. The contractual amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of involvement the Bank has in particular classes of financial instruments.

The Bank’s exposure to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit and financial guarantees written is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Bank uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments.

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is not a violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Bank evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Bank, upon extension of credit is based on management’s credit evaluation of the counter parties. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment, and income-producing commercial properties.

Standby letters of credit and financial guarantees written are conditional commitments issued by the Bank to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. To the extent deemed necessary, collateral of varying types and amounts is held to secure customer performance under certain of those letters of credit outstanding.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, Continued

Financial instruments whose contract amounts represent credit risk as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively, are commitments to extend credit (including availability of lines of credit) — $24.2 million and $29.6 million, and standby letters of credit and financial guarantees written — $3.3 million and $3.6 million. Loan commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. The Bank evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral deemed necessary by the Bank is based on management’s credit evaluation and underwriting guidelines for the particular loan. Commitments outstanding at December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively, are summarized in the following table:

dollars in thousands	2006				2005
	Amount		Rate		Amount		Rate
Real estate-construction (fixed)	$	1,520	5.93%-8.75		$	1,844	5.00%-8.50	%
Real estate-construction (variable)		4,172	7.32 %-10.25	%		11,446	6.25%-16.00	%

Consumers (variable)		683	8.25-10.75	%		442	5.50%-18.00	%
Total	$	24,186			$	29,638

During the period September 29, 2006 through November 1, 2006, the Bank has entered into a series of separate, but related, agreements associated with its decision to undertake a complete core processing systems and peripheral applications migration. The Board of Directors of the Bank has approved management’s recommendation to migrate its core system and peripheral applications on August 22, 2006. These agreements represent commitments for items of a capital and/or capitalizable expenditure nature or may represent operating expenses, beginning in 2006 and extending into the future. To date, the aggregate level of future commitments that have been executed by management is approximately $1.809 million.

As of December 31, 2006, an environmental issue at one of the Bank’s owned branches is being evaluated. The Company has accrued $0.015 million in connection with this matter. The ultimate level of remediation, if any, has yet to be determined. Accordingly, the outcome is presently uncertain.

17. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

During January 2007, the President and Chief Executive Officer resigned. In connection with this resignation, the Company, the Bank and the former executive entered into a separation agreement (the “Separation Agreement”). Pursuant to the Separation Agreement, up to $0.17 million will be paid to the former executive during 2007. The Company and the Bank entered into a consulting arrangement with a former executive and director of the Bank, whereby he served as its interim president and chief executive officer. Total compensation under this arrangement was $0.032 million. On January 12, 2007, the Company and the Bank entered into an employment agreement in connection with Ms. Kim D. Saunders’ appointment as president and chief executive officer of the Company and Bank (the “Employment Agreement”). The term of the Employment Agreement is for three years, with base annual compensation of $0.23 million, in addition to certain incentives.

18. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Fair value information about financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the consolidated balance sheets, for which it is practical to estimate the value, is based upon the characteristics of the instruments and relevant market information. Financial instruments include cash, evidence of ownership in an entity or contracts that convey or impose on an entity the contractual right or obligation to either receive or deliver cash for another financial instrument. Fair value is the amount at which a financial instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced sale or liquidation, and is best evidenced by a quoted market price if one exists. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Bank could realize in a current market exchange.

The book values of cash and due from banks, interest-bearing deposits, accrued interest receivable, accrued interest payable and other liabilities are considered equal to fair values as a result of the short-term nature of these items. The fair values of marketable securities is based on quoted market prices, dealer quotes and priced obtained from independent pricing services. The fair value of loans, time deposits, and other borrowings is estimated based on present values using applicable risk-adjusted spreads to the U.S. Treasury curve to approximate current entry-value interest rates applicable to each category of such financial instruments.

69

M&F BANCORP, INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARY

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, Continued

No adjustment was made to the entry-value interest rates for changes in credit of loans for which there are no known credit concerns. Management segregates loans in appropriate risk categories. Management believes that the risk factor embedded in the entry-value interest rates, along with the general reserves applicable to the loan portfolio for which there are no known credit concerns, results in a fair valuation of such loans on an entry-value basis.

Demand deposits are shown at face value.

As of December 31, 2006 and 2005, the carrying amounts and associated estimated fair value of select assets and liabilities of the Company are as follows:

dollars in thousands	December 31, 2006				December 31, 2005
