Notes to Financial Statements

Note 1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Business

Community Capital Bancshares, Inc. (the “Company”) is a multi-bank holding company whose principal activity is the ownership and management of its wholly-owned bank subsidiaries, Albany Bank & Trust, N.A, and AB & T National Bank, collectively referred to as “the Banks.” Albany Bank & Trust’s main office is located in Albany, Dougherty County, Georgia, with two full service branches in Albany and one full service branch in Leesburg, Georgia and a loan production office in Charleston, South Carolina. AB&T National Bank’s main office is located in Dothan, Houston County, Alabama with a full service branch located in Auburn, Alabama. The Banks provide a full range of banking services to individual and corporate customers in their primary market areas.

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. Significant intercompany transactions and accounts are eliminated in consolidation.  The Company also owns Community Capital Statutory Trust I, a Delaware statutory business trust. This non-operating subsidiary was created in 2003 for the sole purpose of issuing trust preferred securities and investing the proceeds in subordinated debt issued by the Company. During the first quarter of 2004, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation No. 46R (Revised December 2003), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities. This interpretation addresses consolidation by business entities of variable interest entities and when such entities are subject to consolidation under the provisions of this interpretation. The Company has determined that the revised provisions required deconsolidation of Community Capital Statutory Trust I. The adoption of FASB Interpretation No. 46R did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the balance sheet date and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, the valuation of foreclosed real estate and deferred taxes.

The interim financial statements included herein are unaudited but reflect all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the interim period presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations for the periods ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the results of a full year’s operations, and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual report, for the year ended December 31, 2005 as filed on Form 10-KSB.

The accounting principles followed by the Company and the methods of applying these principles conform with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) and with general practices within the banking industry.

Income Taxes

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined using the balance sheet method. Under this method, the net deferred tax asset or liability is determined based on the tax effects of the temporary differences between the book and tax basis of the various balance sheet assets and liabilities and gives current recognition to changes in the tax rates and laws.

The Company and its subsidiaries file a consolidated income tax return. Each entity provides for income taxes based on its contribution to the income taxes (benefits) of the consolidated group.
 
Stock Compensation Plans

At September 30, 2006, the Company had stock-based compensation plans, which are more fully described in Note 10 of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2005. On January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment (“SFAS 123(R)”), using the modified prospective-transition method. Under that transition method, compensation cost recognized beginning in 2006 includes: (a) the compensation cost for all share-based payments granted prior to, but not yet vested as of January 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of FASB Statement Note 123, and (b) the compensation cost for all share-based payments granted subsequent to January 1, 2006, based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123(R). Results for prior periods have not been restated.

As a result of adopting SFAS 123(R) on January 1, 2006, the Company’s income before income taxes and net income for the three months ended September 30, 2006 was $35,000 and $29,000, lower, respectively, than if it had continued to account for share-based compensation under Opinion 25. Basic and diluted earnings per share for the three months ended September 30, 2006 would have been $.19 and $.18, respectively, if the Company had not adopted SFAS 123(R), compared to reported basic and diluted earnings per share of $.18 and $.17, respectively, for the same time period in 2006. The Company’s income before income taxes and net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 was $91,000 and $78,000, lower, respectively, than if it had continued to account for share-based compensation under APB Opinion 25. Basic and diluted earnings per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 would have been $.48 and $.47, respectively, if the Company had not adopted SFAS 123(R), compared to reported basic and diluted earnings per share of $.46 and $.44, respectively, for the same time period in 2006.

Prior to the adoption of SFAS 123(R), the Company presented all tax benefits of deductions resulting from the exercise of stock options as operating cash flows in the Statement of Cash Flows. SFAS 123(R) requires the cash flows from excess tax benefits (the tax benefits resulting from tax deductions in excess of the compensation cost recognized for those options) to be classified as financing cash flows.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

This discussion is intended to assist in an understanding of the Company's financial condition and results of operations. This analysis should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes appearing in Item 1 of the September 30, 2006 Form 10-Q and Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations appearing in the Company's Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2005.

Financial Condition

As of September 30, 2006, the Company’s total assets were $325,278,000, representing an increase of $15,821,000, or 5.11%, from December 31, 2005. Earning assets consist of federal funds sold, investment securities and loans. These assets provide the majority of the Company’s earnings. The mix of earning assets is a reflection of management’s philosophy regarding earnings versus risk.
 
Federal funds sold represent an overnight investment of funds and can be converted immediately to cash. At September 30, 2006, the Company had $6,881,000 in federal funds sold. At December 31, 2005, the Company had federal funds sold of $8,671,000. The $1,790,000 decrease in federal funds sold during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 was used to fund loan growth during the period.
 
Investment securities consist of U.S. Government and Agency securities and municipal bonds. These investments are used to provide fixed maturities and as collateral for advances and large public fund deposits. From December 31, 2005 to September 30, 2006, investment securities decreased by $3,202,000. All securities are classified as available for sale, and are carried at current market values.
 
The loan portfolio is the largest earning asset and is the primary source of earnings for the Company. At September 30, 2006, net loans were $240,691,000. The loan portfolio increased $12,783,000, or 5.61%, over the year-end amount. At September 30, 2006, the allowance for loan losses was $3,613,000 or 1.48% of total loans. Management believes this is an adequate but not excessive amount based upon the composition of the current loan portfolio and current economic conditions. The relationship of the allowance to total loans will vary over time based upon management’s evaluation of the loan portfolio. Management evaluates the adequacy of the allowance on a monthly basis and adjusts it accordingly by a monthly charge to earnings using the provision for loan losses. During the first three quarters of 2006, the provision for potential loan losses was $937,000 as compared to the 2005 amount of $800,000. The reserve was based upon management’s estimate to provide for potential loan losses on the new loans during the quarter.
 
Non-earning assets consist of premises and equipment and other assets. Premises and equipment increased during the year as a result of the construction costs for the Charleston loan production office and the construction of the new Auburn, Alabama office building. Other assets consist primarily of bank-owned life insurance, other real estate owned, and accrued interest receivable. Bank-owned life insurance and other real estate owned increased $185,000 and $21,000, respectively, over the year-end amount. Accrued interest receivable increased $173,000 over the previous year-end amount as a result of a larger loan portfolio upon which to accrue interest.
 
The Company funds its assets primarily through deposits from customers. Additionally, it borrows funds from other sources to provide longer term fixed rate funding for its assets. The Company must pay interest on the majority of these funds and attempts to price these funds competitively in the market place but at a level that it can safely re-invest the funds profitably. At September 30, 2006, total deposits were $264,192,000 as compared to the year-end amount of $245,569,000. This is an increase of $18,623,000 or 7.58%. The increased deposits were used to fund loan growth and reduce other borrowings during the quarter.

The Company’s ratios are well above the required regulatory minimums under capital adequacy guidelines and provide a sufficient basis to support future growth of the Company. The subsidiary banks remain above the required regulatory capital minimums and the parent company has the ability to support the subsidiary banks’ capital levels should the need arise.
 
Results of operations
 
For the quarter end compared to prior year quarter end
 
Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2006 was $570,000 as compared to the net loss of $205,000 for the same period in 2005.

Total interest income increased $2,047,000 for the three months ended September 30 2006 or 51.06% compared to the same period in 2005. This was the result of increased interest income on loans, primarily the result of the larger loan portfolio in the current year combined with a higher overall rate environment.

Interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2006 was $3,080,000, which is an increase of $1,349,000 or 77.93% over the same period in 2005. This increase is indicative of the larger deposit base in the current year to fund the loan growth and the generally higher level of interest rates as compared to 2005.

Net interest income after the provision for loan losses was $2,852,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2006, as compared to the 2005 amount of $1,908,000. This is an increase of $944,000 or 49.48% which is the combined result of the increased level of earning assets, offset by the increase in cost of funds during the current year.
 
12

 
Other noninterest income increased $47,000 to $753,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2006 as compared to the same period in 2005. Other operating income increased $161,000 to $192,000 due to management fee income of $132,000 during the period. This increase was offset by a $59,000 loss on sale of investments and a $90,000 loss on sale of foreclosed properties. Service charges on deposit accounts increased $26,000 or 9.39% due to the larger number of deposit accounts and slightly higher pricing for deposit services. Mortgage origination fees increased $33,000 to $290,000 when compared to the same period in 2005. This increase is the result of the Charleston loan production office.

Non-interest expense decreased $211,000 to $2,750,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2006 as compared to the same period in 2005. This is a decrease of 7.13%, which is attributable to a $763,000 loss on an equity fund investment that was recognized during the third quarter of 2005. There were areas of increased expense that offset the aforementioned loss. Salaries and employee benefits amounted to $1,456,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2006 as compared to the 2005 amount of $1,110,000. This increase of $346,000, or 31.17%, was primarily due to staffing for the Charleston loan production office, which includes the increased commissions paid to mortgage originators as a result of increased mortgage originations.

Legal and professional increased $51,000, or 60.71%, for the three months ended September 30, 2006 from the same period in 2005. The increase is primarily due to the legal costs associated with the responses to the Formal Agreements that the Banks have entered into with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (“OCC”). Administrative expenses increased $50,000 as compared to the third quarter 2005. The major area of increase was consulting fees associated with requirements of the Formal Agreements with the OCC.

Diluted earnings per share for the three months ended September 30, 2006 were $0.18 and increased $0.25, or 357.14%, as compared to the third quarter of the previous year.
 
For the year to date comparison to prior year

Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 was $1,342,000 as compared to $286,000 for the same period in 2005.

Total interest income increased $7,256,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2006, or 71.24%, from the same period in the previous year. This was the result of increased interest income on loans, which increased $7,056,000, and federal funds sold income, which increased $105,000 over the same period in 2005. The increase in interest income was primarily the result of the larger loan portfolio in the current year combined with a higher overall rate environment.

Interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 was $8,662,000, which is an increase of $4,738,000 over the same period in 2005. This increase is indicative of the larger deposit base in the current year and the generally higher level of interest rates as compared to 2005.

Net interest income after the provision for loan losses was $7,843,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2006, as compared to the 2005 amount of $5,462,000. This is an increase of $2,381,000, or 43.59%. This increase is the combined result of the increased level of earning assets, offset by the increase in cost of funds during the current year. The largest area of growth during the past year is the Charleston loan production office, which has generated over $51,000,000 in loans since its opening in June 2005. These loans are primarily funded with short term high cost certificates of deposit. The other major source of loan growth has been through the Company’s subsidiary bank in Alabama. This franchise contributed $16,000,000 in loan growth over the past twelve months, which is funded primarily through its core deposits.

Other noninterest income increased $634,000 to $2,160,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 as compared to the same period in 2005. Service charges on deposit accounts increased $210,000 or 28.07% due to the larger number of deposit accounts and slightly higher pricing for deposit services. Mortgage origination fees increased $379,000 to $720,000 during the period. This increase is the result of the additional fees generated by the Charleston loan production office.

Non-interest expense increased $1,364,000 to $8,018,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 as compared to the same period in 2005. This is an increase of 20.50%. The largest area of increase was in the salary and employee benefits category. Salaries and benefits amounted to $4,175,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 as compared to the 2005 amount of $2,860,000. This increase of $1,315,000 or 45.98% was primarily due to the cost of staffing for the Charleston loan production office of $352,000, which includes the increased commissions paid to mortgage originators as a result of increased mortgage originations, and $130,000 for a severance payment to the Company’s former president.

Equipment and occupancy expenses increased $117,000 or 13.42% for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 from the same period in 2005. The increase is due to the additional office locations in Charleston and Auburn, Alabama. Legal and professional expense increased $100,000 or 34.01% for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 from the same period in 2005. This increase was a result of the costs associated with the response to the Formal Agreements with the OCC and other increases in professional fees. Administrative expenses increased $362,000 to $833,000 in the current year. The majority of this increase is the result of increased consulting expenses in connection with the Formal Agreements.

Diluted earnings per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 were $0.44 and increased $0.35 or 388.89% as compared to the first nine months of the previous year.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Our financial statements do not reflect various commitments and contingent liabilities that arise in the normal course of business. These off-balance sheet financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Such financial instruments are included in the financial statements when funds are distributed or when the instruments become payable. Our exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to a financial instrument for commitments to extend credit, and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. We use the same credit policies in making commitments as we do for on-balance sheet instruments. Although these amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements, a summary of our commitments as of September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005 are as follows:

 
 
September-06
 
December-05

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Liquidity is an important factor in our financial condition and affects our ability to meet the borrowing needs and deposit withdrawal requirements of our customers. Assets, consisting primarily of loans and investment securities, are funded by customer deposits, borrowed funds, and retained earnings. Maturities in the investment and loan portfolios also provide a steady flow of funds for reinvestment. In addition, our liquidity continues to be enhanced by a relatively stable core deposit base and the availability of additional funding sources. Management monitors its future liquidity needs based upon quarterly projections of loan and deposit growth. Management feels that it has sufficient capital and liquidity resources to support its future growth.

REGULATORY MATTERS

On July 27, 2006, each of the Banks entered into a written Formal Agreement with the OCC. The Formal Agreements were described in the Form 8-K filed on August 2, 2006 and in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2006. Compliance with the requirements of the Formal Agreements has led to a decrease in the Company’s total assets in order to reach specified capital levels. Any future increases in assets will be dependent upon the Banks’ ability to generate the additional capital necessary to support the growth.

Forward-Looking Statements

This document contains statements that constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Sections 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Sections 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The words “believe”, “estimate”, “expect”, “intend”, “anticipate” and similar expressions and variations thereof identify certain of such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the dates that they were made. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. Users are cautioned that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties that the actual results may differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors. For a discussion of the factors, risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from estimates and projections contained in these forward-looking statements, please read the “Risk Factors” section of our report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2005. Users are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.

ITEM 3.

Market risk is a risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market prices and rates. The Company's market risk is composed primarily of interest rate risk created by its lending and deposit taking activities. The primary purpose of managing interest rate risk is to reduce the effects of interest rate volatility on our financial condition and results of operations. Management addresses this risk through an active asset/liability management process and through management of maturities and repricing of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The Company's market risk and strategies for market risk management are more fully described in its 2005 annual report of Form 10-KSB. There have been no changes in the assumptions used in monitoring interest rate risk as of September 30, 2006. Through September 30, 2006, management has not utilized derivatives as a part of this process.
 
ITEM 4.

As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have evaluated the effectiveness of our "disclosure controls and procedures" ("Disclosure Controls"). Disclosure Controls, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), are procedures that are designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act, such as this Quarterly Report, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. Disclosure Controls are also designed with the objective of ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 
15

 
Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, does not expect that our Disclosure Controls will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

Based upon their controls evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that our Disclosure Controls are effective at a reasonable assurance level.
 
There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during our first nine months of the fiscal year that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
