For further information, refer to the financial statements and related footnotes included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2005. In the opinion of management, the financial statements presented herein include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2006 and the Company's income statement for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, and the statement of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of operating results for an entire fiscal year. The balance sheet as of December 31, 2005, has been derived from the audited balance sheet as of that date. Reclassifications Certain reclassifications were made to prior periods presented to conform to the current year. These reclassifications are of a normal recurring nature. Stock-Based Compensation On January 1, 2006, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004) (SFAS No. 123R), Share-Based Payment, which addresses the accounting for stock-based payment transactions in which an enterprise receives employee services in exchange for (a) equity instruments of the enterprise or (b) liabilities that are based on the fair value of the enterprise's equity instruments or that may be settled by issuance of such equity instruments. In January 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 107, which provides supplemental implementation guidance for SFAS No. 123R. SFAS No. 123R eliminates the ability to account for stock-based compensation transactions using the intrinsic value method under Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and instead generally requires that such transactions be accounted for using a fair-value-based method. SFAS No. 123R requires the use of a valuation model to calculate the fair value of stock-based awards. The Company has elected to use the Black-Scholes Model for option valuation. This model incorporates various assumptions including volatility, expected life, and interest rates. The expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company's common stock over the most recent period commensurate with the estimated expected life of the Company's stock options adjusted for the impact of unusual fluctuations not reasonably expected to recur and other relevant factors. The expected life of an award is based on historical experience and on the terms and conditions of the stock awards granted to employees. The assumptions used for the six-month period ended June 30, 2006 are as follows: WEIGHTED AVERAGE ASSUMPTIONS FOR OPTIONS GRANTED DURING THE PERIOD ENDED: June 30, 2006 --------------- Expected Life 72 months Stock Volatility 55.58% Risk free interest rate 4.77% Dividend yield 0.00% The Company has elected the modified prospective transition method as permitted by SFAS No. 123R and accordingly prior periods have not been restated to reflect the impact of SFAS No. 123R. The modified prospective transition method requires that stock-based compensation expense be recorded for all new and unvested stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, and employee stock purchase plan shares that are ultimately expected to vest as the requisite service is rendered beginning on January 1, 2006, the first day of the Company's fiscal year 2006. Stock-based 6 SERVICE 1ST BANCORP NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND MANAGEMENT REPRESENTATION (continued) compensation expense for awards granted prior to January 1, 2006 is based on the grant date fair-value as determined under the pro forma provisions of SFAS No. 123. The Company has recorded an incremental $50,076 of stock-based compensation expense during the quarter ended June 30, 2006 and $99,298 for the six months ended June 30, 2006 as a result of the adoption of SFAS No. 123R. Prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 123R, the Company measured compensation expense for its employee stock-based compensation plans using the intrinsic value method prescribed by APB Opinion No. 25. The Company applied the disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 123 as amended by SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure as if the fair-value-based method had been applied in measuring compensation expense. Under APB Opinion No. 25, when the exercise price of the Company's employee stock options was equal to the market price of the underlying stock on the date of the grant, no compensation expense was recognized. The following table illustrates the effect on net income after taxes and net income per common share as if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123 to stock-based compensation during the six-month period ended June 30, 2005 (in thousands, except per share amounts):

7 SERVICE 1ST BANCORP NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 2 - EARNINGS PER SHARE (EPS) Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders' by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in earnings of the entity as of June 30, 2006 and 2005. Weighted average shares outstanding used in the computation of basic earnings per share were 2,386,239 and 2,385,393 in 2006 and 2005, respectively. Weighted average shares outstanding used in the computation of diluted earnings per share were 2,559,450 and 2,610,697 in 2006 and 2005, respectively. All earnings per share data have been retroactively adjusted for the three-for-two stock split declared on September 15, 2005 for shareholders of record on September 29, 2005. NOTE 3 - SECURITIES Securities are classified in three categories and accounted for as follows: debt and equity securities that the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as held-to-maturity and are measured at amortized cost; debt and equity securities bought and held principally for the purpose of selling in the near term are classified as trading securities and are measured at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses included in earnings; debt and equity securities not classified as either held-to-maturity or trading securities are deemed available-for-sale and are measured at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of applicable taxes reported in a separate component of stockholders' equity. Any gains or losses on sales of investments are computed on a specific identification basis. The tables below reflect the composition of investment securities, amortized cost, unrealized gains and losses and estimated fair values as of June 30, 2006.

NOTE 4 - LOANS Service 1st Bank's customers are primarily located in San Joaquin County. At June 30, 2006, approximately 66.6% of the Bank's loans are for real estate and construction loans and approximately 21.3% of the Bank's loans are for general commercial users including professional, retail, and small businesses. Consumer loans make up approximately 2.4% of the loan portfolio, leases make up 6.7% of the loan portfolio, with agriculture loans making up the remaining 3.0%.

BUSINESS ORGANIZATION Service 1st Bancorp (the "Company") is a California corporation and was incorporated on January 23, 2004 to act as a holding company for Service 1st Bank (the "Bank"). The Bank became a subsidiary of the Company effective June 26, 2004. As of June 30, 2006, the Company maintained its administrative office in Tracy, San Joaquin County and the Bank operated two full-service offices in the cities of Stockton and Tracy in San Joaquin County. The Bank has a temporary office in the City of Lodi, California while the tenant improvements are completed on the permanent office in Lodi, California. The Bank plans to open the permanent office in Lodi during August 2006. The Bank offers a full range of commercial banking services to individuals, small and medium sized businesses, municipalities and professionals in San Joaquin County and the surrounding communities. The following analysis is designed to provide a more complete understanding of the material changes and trends related to the Company's financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, and capital resources. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial statements included in Item 1 of the Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2005. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the Company's management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Note 1 to the Financial Statements describes the significant accounting policies used in the preparation of the financial statements. A critical accounting policy is defined as one that is both material to the presentation of the Company's financial statements and requires management to make difficult, subjective or complex judgments that could have a material effect on the Company's financial condition and results of operations. Management believes that the matters described below are critical accounting policies. 10 Allowance for Loan Losses The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses charged to expenses. Loans are charged against the allowance for loan losses when management believes that the collectibility of the principal is unlikely. The allowance is an amount that management believes will be adequate to absorb losses inherent in existing loans and commitments to extend credit, based on evaluations of collectibility and prior loss experience of loans and commitments to extend credit. The evaluations take into consideration such factors as changes in the nature and volume of the portfolio, overall portfolio quality, loan concentration, specific problem loans, commitments, and current economic conditions that may affect the borrowers' ability to pay. Summary of Financial Condition The Company's total consolidated assets increased 13.2% from December 31, 2005 to June 30, 2006. As of June 30, 2006, total consolidated assets were $191,696,466 compared to $169,329,270 as of December 31, 2005, and $161,367,042 at June 30, 2005. The increase in growth was primarily from an increase in loans. Total net loans at June 30, 2006 were $108,390,821 compared to $82,533,132 at December 31, 2005 and $72,686,912 at June 30, 2005. This represents an increase in net loans of 31.3% from December 31, 2005. Cash and due from banks declined 43.0% from December 31, 2005 to June 30, 2006. In the last quarter of 2005, the Company requested permission from the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco to implement a deposit reclassification program. The program allows banks to treat a portion of their demand deposit accounts as savings accounts for regulatory reporting purposes. This reclassification significantly decreases the uninvested cash that banks must reserve for demand deposit accounts. The Company was able to reduce its reserve requirement by approximately $5.1 million. Those funds were utilized to fund the Bank's loan growth. Total deposits were $160,692,021 at June 30, 2006 compared to $151,141,667 at December 31, 2005 and $145,055,427 at June 30, 2005. Noninterest-bearing DDA accounts increased from $27,388,426 at December 31, 2005 to $29,861,863 at June 30, 2006. Money market, NOW, and savings accounts decreased to $72,538,488 at June 30, 2006 from $85,127,700 at December 31, 2005. This decline was caused by depositors moving to higher interest bearing accounts. Time deposits under $100,000 increased from $13,643,135 at December 31, 2005 to $28,452,492 at June 30, 2006. Time deposits of $100,000 and over increased from $24,982,406 at December 31, 2005 to $29,839,178 at June 30, 2006. The increase in time deposits under $100,000 was primarily from the Bank's participation in the national Certificate of Deposit Account Registry (CDARS) program. Through this program, the Bank can offer $25,000,000 of FDIC insurance coverage for time deposits. When the Bank places these deposits into the CDARS network, it has the option of receiving reciprocal deposits from other banks in the network. Reciprocal deposits from the CDARS program increased from $8,266,739 at December 31, 2005 to $20,546,521 at June 30, 2006. The increase in time deposits over $100,000 was primarily from a $5,000,000 increase in time deposits from the State of California. Other borrowings at June 30, 2006 were $13,926,000 compared to $1,030,000 at December 31, 2005. The borrowings were utilized to fund the rapid growth in new loan originations. The borrowings consist of advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco and securities sold under an agreement to repurchase. Results of Operations Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2006 was $284,730 compared to $270,639 for the second quarter of 2005. Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2006 was $486,060 compared to $525,075 for June 30, 2005. Income tax for the three months ended June 30, 2006 was $40,634 compared to $103,280 in the same quarter of 2005. Income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2006 was $118,414 compared to $217,406 for the same time period in 2005. Basic earnings per share for the three months ended June 30, 2006 were $0.12 per share compared to $0.11 for the three months ended June 30, 2005. Diluted earnings per share for the three months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 were $0.11 and $0.10, respectively. Basic earnings per share for the six months ended June 30, 2006 were $0.20 per share compared to $0.22 for 2005. Diluted earnings per share for the six months ended June 30, 2006 were $0.19 compared to $0.20 for 2005. 11 The decline in income before income taxes for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2006 was primarily from the staffing for the new Lodi branch scheduled to open in mid-August 2006. The Bank hired staff and has been conducting an extensive training program in preparation for the opening of the branch. The Bank has also incurred a $21,882 monthly increase in rental expense for Lodi. Another factor contributing to the decline in income before taxes was the adoption of SFAS No. 123R. The Company had stock based compensation expense of $50,076 for the second quarter of 2006 and $99,298 of expense for the six months ended June 30, 2006. There was no expense reflected on the income statement for this compensation in 2005. Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin Net interest income, the primary component of the net earnings of a financial institution, refers to the difference between the interest earned on loans and investments and the interest paid on deposits and borrowings. Please see the tables of average balance sheet and net interest income below. The following table sets forth average balance sheet information, interest income and expense, average yields and rates, and net interest income and margin for the three months ending June 30, 2006 and 2005.

1. Average loan balances include average deferred loan fees of $291,373 and $270,100 for the six months ending June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. 2. Interest on loans includes fees of $110,432 and $90,860 for the six months ending June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. 3. Net interest margin is computed by dividing net interest income by total average earning assets. All average balances have been computed using daily balances. 13 Net interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2006 was $1,734,469 compared to $1,342,661 for 2005. Net interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2006 was $3,410,195 compared to $2,611,832 for 2005. Average interest-earning assets for the three months ended June 30, 2006 were $174,519,224 compared to $140,200,263 during the same three months of 2005. The yield earned on average interest-earning assets during the second quarter of 2006 was 6.92% compared to 5.70% during the second quarter of 2005. The average rate paid on interest bearing-liabilities increased from 2.35% for the second quarter of 2005 to 3.67% during the second quarter of 2006. Average interest-earning assets for the six months ended June 30, 2006 was $167,321,825 compared to $138,326,394 during the same six months of 2005. The yield earned on average interest-earning assets during the six months ended June 30, 2006 was 6.83% compared to 5.61% during the same period of 2005. The average rate paid on interest bearing liabilities increased to 3.40% for the six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to 2.26% during the same period for 2005. The increase in rates earned on loans, investments, and paid on deposits was a result of the Federal Reserve Bank raising interest rates seventeen times from July 1, 2004 through June 29, 2006. Allowance and Provision for Loan Losses The Company assesses and manages credit risk on an ongoing basis through stringent credit review and approval policies, extensive internal monitoring, and established formal lending policies. Additionally, the Bank contracts with an outside source to periodically review the existing loan portfolio. Management believes its ability to identify and assess risk and return characteristics of the Company's loan portfolio is critical for profitability and growth. Management strives to continue the historically low level of credit losses by continuing its emphasis on credit quality in the loan approval process, active credit administration, and regular monitoring. Management has implemented a loan review and grading system that functions to continually assess the credit risk inherent in the loan portfolio. In extending credit and commitments to borrowers, the Bank generally requires collateral and/or guarantees as security. The repayment of such loans is expected to come from cash flows or from proceeds from the sale of selected assets of the borrowers. The Bank's requirement for collateral and/or guarantees is determined on a case-by-case basis in connection with management's evaluation of the creditworthiness of the borrower. Collateral held varies, but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment, income-producing properties, residences, and other real property. Construction loans and other real estate secured loans comprise 66.6% of total loans outstanding at June 30, 2006. Although management believes such loans have no more than the normal risk of collectibility, a substantial decline in the economy in general, or a decline in real estate values in the Company's primary operating market areas in particular, could have an adverse impact on the collectibility of such loans. In addition, such an occurrence could result in an increase in loan losses and an increase in the provision for loan losses, which could adversely affect the Company's future prospects, results of operations, overall profitability, and the market price of the Company's common stock. The provision for loan losses for the three months ended June 30, 2006 was $95,000 compared to $80,000 during the same quarter of 2005. The provision for loan losses for the six months ended June 30, 2006 was $140,000, as well as during the same period of 2005. At June 30, 2006, the allowance for loan losses was $1,269,050 compared to $1,123,494 at December 31, 2005. The ratio of allowance for loan losses to gross loans was 1.15% at June 30, 2006 compared to 1.34% at December 31, 2005. The allowance for loan losses is adjusted by charges to income and decreased by charge-offs (net of recoveries). Management's periodic evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance is based on past loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower's ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral, and current economic conditions. Additional provisions will be added as new loans are placed on the books in an amount adequate to support the risks inherent in the portfolio. 14 The following table summarizes the changes in the allowances for loan losses arising from loans charged-off, recoveries on loans previously charged-off, and additions to the allowance which have been charged to operating expenses and certain ratios relating to the allowance for loan losses.
For the six months ended June 30, ------------------------------- 2006 2005 ------------- ------------- Outstanding Loans: Average for the Period $ 96,099,130 $ 70,047,384 End of the Period 109,951,059 74,064,200 Allowance For Loan Losses: Balance at Beginning of Year 1,123,494 963,000 Actual Charge-Offs: Commercial -- -- Consumer -- -- Real Estate -- -- ------------- ------------- Total Charge-Offs -- -- ------------- ------------- Less Recoveries: Commercial -- -- Consumer 5,556 -- Real Estate -- -- ------------- ------------- Total Recoveries 5,556 -- ------------- ------------- Net Loans Charged-Off 5,556 -- Provision for Loan Losses 140,000 140,000 ------------- ------------- Balance at End of Period $ 1,269,050 $ 1,103,000 ============= ============= Ratios: Net Loans Charged-Off (Recoveries) to Average Loans (.01)% 0% Allowance for Loan Losses to Total Loans 1.15% 1.49% Net Loans Charged-Off (Recoveries) to Beginning Allowance for Loan Losses (.49)% 0% Net Loans Charged-Off (Recoveries) to Provision for Loan Losses (3.97)% 0% Allowance for Loan Losses to Nonperforming Loans 2,957.81% 1,500.48%
Nonaccrual Loans, Loans Past Due 90 Days and OREO Management generally places loans on nonaccrual status when they become 90 days past due, unless the loan is well secured and in the process of collection. Loans are charged off when, in the opinion of management, collection appears unlikely. There were nonaccrual loans of $42,905 at June 30, 2006, $73,510 at June 30, 2005, and $54,020 at December 31, 2005. At June 30, 2006, there were loans totaling $42,905 that were considered impaired or troubled debt restructurings compared to $73,510 at June 30, 2005 and $309,256 at December 31, 2005. These loans were delinquent and placed on nonaccrual, but management believes that the loans will be collected in full. The loans were placed on nonaccrual to defer future income recognition until the delinquent payments have been received. There were no loan concentrations in excess of 10% of total loans not otherwise disclosed as a category of loans as of June 30, 2006 or December 31, 2005. Management is not aware of any potential problem loans, which were accruing and current at June 30, 2006 or December 31, 2005, where serious doubt exists as to the ability of the borrower to comply with the present repayment terms. There was no other real estate owned at June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005. 15 Other Income Other income for the three months ended June 30, 2006 was $137,153 compared to $154,584 for the same period during 2005. Other income for the six months ended June 30, 2006 was $272,763 compared to $353,119 for the same period during 2005. The Bank offers loans on single family homes through a third party lender. The Bank receives fees for the packaging of the loans provided to the third party lender. The loans are funded by and become assets of the third party lender. The fees on such loans for the three months ended June 30, 2005 were $12,795 and for the six months ended June 30, 2005 were $24,434. There was no income from this activity for 2006 due to a decline in refinancing of such loans. The Bank originates loans through various government guarantee programs. The guaranteed portion of these loans can be sold in the secondary market. Gains on loans sold in the secondary market and the servicing of these loans for the three months ended June 30, 2006 were $32,685 compared to $35,285 during the same period in 2005. Gains on loans sold in the secondary market and the servicing of these loans for the six months ended June 30, 2006 were $59,071 compared to $126,687 during the same period in 2005. The gains on the guaranteed portion of loans sold for the six months ended June 30, 2006 were $12,733 compared to a gain of $67,226 in 2005. Other Expense Salaries and employee benefits for the three months ended June 30, 2006 were $829,696 compared to $607,838 for the three months ended June 30, 2005. Salaries and employee benefits for the six months ended June 30, 2006 were $1,643,251 compared to $1,213,291 for the six months ended June 30, 2005. The increase in salaries and employee benefits during 2006 was a result of an increase in the number of employees in preparation for opening a new Lodi, California office in mid-August, 2006. Beginning in 2006, the Company is required to record expense related to employee and director stock-based compensation. The portion of the expense for the three months ended June 30, 2006 related to employee stock options was $30,666 and the comparable expense for the six months ended June 30, 2006 was $60,478. There was no expense recorded on the income statement for stock-based compensation for 2005. There were 40 employees at June 30, 2006 compared to 33 at June 30, 2005. Occupancy and equipment expense for the three months ended June 30, 2006 was $208,607 compared to $128,122 for the same period of 2005. Occupancy and equipment expense was $417,645 for the six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to $250,575 for the same period during 2005. The increase in expense is related to rent in the amount of $21,882 per month for the Company's new office in Lodi, California, a new administrative office in Tracy, California, and an annual cpi increase in the lease expense for the other branch offices. Data processing and other professional fees increased from $93,507 for the three months ended June 30, 2005 to $152,085 for the three months ended June 30, 2006. Data processing and other professional fees for the six months ended June 30, 2006 was $320,637 compared to $202,314 for the same period during 2005. The primary increase in professional fees is for management recruitment fees paid to locate new employees. Loan department expense for the three months ended June 30, 2006 was $20,439 compared to $25,862 for the same period of 2005. Loan department expense for the six months ended June 30, 2006 was $124,525 compared to $43,111 for the same period of 2005. The primary increase in loan department expense for the six months ended June 30, 2006 was the amortization expense for loan servicing assets. When the Company sells a government guaranteed loan it establishes a loan servicing asset, which is the anticipated servicing over the estimated remaining term of the loans sold. If these loans payoff early the remaining unamortized servicing asset is written off. During the first quarter of 2006, two large SBA loans paid off early. The remainder of the other operating expenses increased due to the growth of the company. Income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2006 was $40,634 compared to $103,280 for the same period in 2005. Income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2006 was $118,414 compared to $217,406 for the same period in 2005. To reduce the Company's tax expense, the Company has increased the amount of municipal securities in its portfolio. These investments have substantially reduced federal income tax expense. At June 30, 2006, the Company owned $14,238,347 of municipal securities compared to $2,368,897 at June 30, 2005. During 2006, the Company began funding leases. Some of these leases allow the Company to recognize accelerated depreciation expense for tax purposes further reducing the Company's tax liability. Capital Resources Total shareholders' equity at June 30, 2006 was $15,779,404 compared to $15,574,101 at December 31, 2005. The increase was primarily from the net income for the six months ended June 30, 2006 of $486,060. Due to rising interest rates there was an increase in accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax of $380,055. The Company and the Bank are subject to regulations issued by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and the FDIC, which require maintenance of a certain level of capital. Under the regulations, capital 16 requirements are based upon the composition of an institution's asset base and the risk factors assigned to those assets. The guidelines characterize an institution's capital as being "Tier 1" capital (defined to be principally shareholders' equity less intangible assets) and "Tier 2" capital (defined to be principally the allowance for loan losses, limited to one and one-fourth percent of gross risk weighted assets). The guidelines require the Company and the Bank to maintain a risk-based capital target ratio of 8%, one-half or more of which should be in the form of Tier 1 capital. The following table shows the Company's and the Bank's actual capital amounts and ratios at June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, as well as the minimum capital ratios for capital adequacy under the regulatory framework (dollar amounts are in thousands).
To be well-capitalized For capital adequacy under prompt corrective Actual purposes action provisions ---------------------- ----------------------- ----------------------- Amount Ratio Amount Ratio Amount Ratio ---------- --------- ---------- --------- ---------- --------- As of June 30, 2006: Company: Total capital (to risk weighted assets) $18,139 12.4% $11,615 8.0% N/A N/A Tier 1 capital (to risk weighted assets) $16,870 11.6% $ 5,807 4.0% N/A N/A Tier 1 capital (to average assets) $16,870 8.5% $ 7,933 4.0% N/A N/A Bank: Total capital (to risk weighted assets) $17,377 12.0% $11,615 8.0% $14,519 10.0% Tier 1 capital (to risk weighted assets) $16,046 11.1% $ 5,807 4.0% $ 8,711 6.0% Tier 1 capital (to average assets) $16,046 8.8% $ 7,302 4.0% $ 9,128 5.0% As of December 31, 2005: Company: Total capital (to risk weighted assets) $17,404 15.1% $ 9,224 8.0% N/A N/A Tier 1capital (to risk weighted assets) $16,281 14.1% $ 4,612 4.0% N/A N/A Tier 1 capital (to average assets) $16,281 9.8% $ 6,683 4.0% N/A N/A Bank: Total capital (to risk weighted assets) $16,304 14.1% $ 9,224 8.0% $11,530 10.0% Tier 1capital (to risk weighted assets) $15,181 13.2% $ 4,612 4.0% $ 6,918 6.0% Tier 1 capital (to average assets) $15,181 9.1% $ 6,644 4.0% $ 8,304 5.0%
The Bank meets the "well capitalized" capital ratio measures at both June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005. 17 Liquidity The objective of liquidity management is to ensure continuous availability of funds to meet the demands of depositors, investors, and borrowers. Liquidity is primarily derived from cash, Federal Funds, and other liquid investments. The Bank has also established borrowing lines from correspondent banks and the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco totaling $42,200,000. Management is not aware of any future capital expenditures or other significant demands on commitments that would severely impair liquidity. Inflation The impact of inflation on a financial institution differs significantly from that exerted on manufacturing or other commercial concerns, primarily because its assets and liabilities are largely monetary. In general, inflation primarily affects the Company and the Bank indirectly through its effect on market rates of interest, and thus the ability of the Bank to attract loan customers. Inflation affects the growth of total assets by increasing the level of loan demand, and potentially adversely affects the Company's and the Bank's capital adequacy because loan growth in inflationary periods can increase at rates higher than the rate that capital grows through retention of earnings, which the Company may generate in the future. In addition to its effects on interest rates, inflation directly affects the Company by increasing operating expenses. The effects of inflation were not material to the Company's results of operations during the periods ending June 30, 2006 and 2005. Off-Balance Sheet Items As of June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, commitments to extend credit and letters of credit were the only financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk. The Company has not entered into any contracts for financial derivative instruments such as futures, swaps, options or similar instruments. Loan commitments and letters of credit were $38,294,000 and $34,897,000 at June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively. As a percentage of gross loans these off-balance sheet items represent 34.8% and 41.6%, respectively. Certain financial institutions have elected to use special purpose vehicles ("SPV") to dispose of problem assets. A SPV is typically a subsidiary company with an asset and liability structure and legal status that makes its obligations secure even if the parent corporation goes bankrupt. Under certain circumstances, these financial institutions may exclude the problem assets from their reported impaired and non-performing assets. The Company doesn't use those vehicles or any other structures to dispose of problem assets. Effects of Terrorism The terrorist actions on September 11, 2001 and thereafter and the conflict with Iraq have had significant adverse effects upon the United States economy. Whether the terrorist activities in the future and the actions of the United States and its allies in combating terrorism on a worldwide basis will adversely impact the Company and the extent of such impact is uncertain. Such economic deterioration could adversely affect the Company's future results of operations by, among other matters, reducing the demand for loans and other products and services offered by the Bank, increasing nonperforming loans and the amounts reserved for loan losses, and causing a decline in the Company's stock price.

Other Matters The Company filed its report on Form 8-K dated July 7, 2006 to announce the organization of Charter Service Group, Inc. as a new wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Charter will provide consulting services primarily related to the formation of start-up (de novo) banks. It is anticipated that such consulting services will include consultation with prospective organizers of de novo banks related to regulatory approval, capitalization and infrastructure requirements, among other matters. 18 Item 3. Controls and Procedures (a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures An evaluation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and other members of the Company's senior management as of the end of the Company's fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2006. The Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as currently in effect are effective in ensuring that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i) accumulated and communicated to the Company's management (including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer) to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure, and (ii) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission's rules and forms. (b) Internal Control Over Financial Reporting An evaluation of any changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)), that occurred during the Company's fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2006, was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and other members of the Company's senior management. The Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that no change identified in connection with such evaluation has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
