1.    ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accounting and reporting policies followed by Evans Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”), a financial holding company, and its two direct, wholly-owned subsidiaries: (i) Evans National Bank (the “Bank”), and its subsidiaries, Evans National Leasing, Inc. (“ENL”) and Evans National Holding Corp. (“ENHC”); and (ii) Evans National Financial Services, Inc. (“ENFS”), and its subsidiary ENB Insurance Agency, Inc. (“ENBI”) and its subsidiaries, Frontier Claims Services, Inc. (“FCS”) and ENB Associates Inc. (“ENB”), in the preparation of the accompanying interim unaudited consolidated financial statements conform with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and with general practice within the banking industry. Except as the context otherwise requires, the Company and its direct and indirect subsidiaries are collectively referred to in this report as the “Company.”
The accompanying consolidated financial statements are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position and results of operations for the interim periods have been made. Such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.
The results of operations for the three and six month period ended June 30, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements and the Notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005.
2.    SECURITIES
Securities which the Company has the positive ability and intent to hold to maturity are stated at amortized cost. Securities which the Company has identified as available-for-sale are stated at fair value with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported net of deferred income taxes, in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), a component of stockholders equity. Available-for-sale securities are net of unrealized losses of $4.0 million, $3.3 million and $2.1 million as of June 30, 2006, March 31, 2006, and December 31, 2005, respectively. As of June 30, 2006, March 31, 2006, and December 31, 2005, the securities portfolio did not contain any other than temporary declines in fair value.
3.    ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN AND LEASE LOSSES
The allowance for loan and lease losses represents the amount charged against the Bank’s earnings to establish an allowance for probable loan and lease losses based on the Bank’s management’s evaluation of the loan and lease portfolio. Factors considered by the Bank’s management in establishing the allowance include: the collectibility of individual loans and leases, current loan and lease concentrations, charge-off history, delinquent loan and lease percentages, input from regulatory agencies and general economic conditions.
On a quarterly basis, management of the Bank meets to review and determine the adequacy of the allowance for loan and lease losses. In making this determination, the Bank’s management analyzes the ultimate collectibility of the loans and leases in its portfolio by incorporating feedback provided by the Bank’s internal loan staff, an independent internal loan review function and information provided by examinations performed by regulatory agencies.
The analysis of the allowance for loan and lease losses is composed of three components: specific credit allocation, general portfolio allocation and subjectively by determined allocation. The specific credit allocation includes a detailed review of the credit in accordance with the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 114, “Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan” and No. 118, “Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan — Income Recognition and Disclosures,” and allocation is made based on this analysis. The general portfolio allocation consists of an assigned reserve percentage based on the actual credit rating of the loan or lease.

The subjective portion of the allowance reflects management’s evaluation of various conditions, and involves a higher degree of uncertainty because this component of the allowance is not identified with specific problem credits of portfolio segments. The conditions evaluated in connection with this component include the following: industry and regional conditions; seasoning of the loan and lease portfolio and changes in the composition of and growth in the loan and lease portfolio; the strength and duration of the business cycle; existing general economic and business conditions in the lending areas; credit quality trends in nonaccruing loans and leases; historical loan and lease charge-off experience; and the results of bank regulatory examinations.
The following table sets forth information regarding the allowance for loan and lease losses for the six month periods ended June 30, 2006 and 2005.

4.    PER SHARE DATA
The common stock per share information is based upon the weighted average number of shares outstanding during each period, retroactively adjusted for stock dividends and stock splits. The Company’s potential dilutive securities included 3,093 and 2,035 dilutive shares for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2006. There were 2,947 and 3,293 dilutive shares for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2005. On February 21, 2006, the Company declared a cash dividend of $0.34 per share payable on April 3, 2006 to shareholders of record as of March 13, 2006. All June 30, 2005 share and per share amounts have been adjusted to reflect a 5% stock dividend paid in December 2005.
Potential common shares that would have the effect of increasing diluted earnings per share are considered to be anti-dilutive. In accordance with SFAS No. 128, “Earnings Per Share,” these shares were not included in calculating diluted earnings per share. As of the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2006, there were approximately 46 thousand and 59 thousand shares, respectively, that are not included in calculating diluted earnings per share because their effect was anti-dilutive. As of the three and six month periods ended June

30, 2005, there were approximately 12 thousand shares that are not included in calculating diluted earnings per share because their effect was anti-dilutive.
5.    TREASURY STOCK
During the quarter ended June 30, 2006 the Company repurchased 7,950 shares of common stock at an average cost of $22.01 per share, pursuant to the Company’s publicly announced common stock repurchase program.
6.    SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company is comprised of two primary business segments, banking and insurance agency activities. The following tables set forth information regarding these segments for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2006 and 2005.

7.    CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND COMMITMENTS
The unaudited consolidated financial statements do not reflect various commitments and contingent liabilities, which arise in the normal course of business, and which involve elements of credit risk, interest rate risk and liquidity risk. These commitments and contingent liabilities consist of commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. A summary of the Bank’s commitments and contingent liabilities at June 30, 2006 and 2005 is as follows:
                 
    2006     2005  
    (in thousands)  
 
               
Commitments to extend credit
  $ 54,966     $ 65,716  
Standby letters of credit
    2,080       2,244  
 
           
Total
  $ 57,046     $ 67,960  
 
           
Commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit include some exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance of the customer. The Bank’s credit policies and procedures for credit commitments and financial guarantees are the same as those for extensions of credit that are recorded on the Company’s unaudited consolidated balance sheets. Because these instruments have fixed maturity dates, and because they may expire without being drawn upon, they do not necessarily represent cash requirements of the Bank. The Bank has not incurred any losses on its commitments during the past two years.
Certain lending commitments for construction residential mortgage loans are considered derivative instruments under the guidelines of SFAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.” The changes in the fair value of these commitments due to interest rate risk are not recorded on the consolidated balance sheets as these derivatives are not considered material.
The Company is subject to possible litigation proceedings in the normal course of business. As of June 30, 2006, there were no claims pending against the Company that management considered to be material.
8.    RECLASSIFICATIONS
Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2005 unaudited consolidated financial statements to conform with the presentation used in 2006.
9.    NET PERIODIC BENEFIT COSTS
The Bank has a defined benefit pension plan covering substantially all Company employees. The plan provides benefits that are based on the employees’ compensation and years of service. The Bank uses an actuarial method of amortizing prior service cost and unrecognized net gains or losses which result from actual experience and assumptions being different than those that are projected. The amortized method the Bank is using recognizes the prior service cost and net gains or losses over the average remaining service period of active employees.
The Bank also maintains a nonqualified supplemental executive retirement plan covering certain members of the Company’s senior management. The Bank uses an actuarial method of amortizing unrecognized net gains or losses which result from actual expense and assumptions being different than those that are projected. The amortization method the Bank uses recognizes the net gains or losses over the average remaining service period of active employees.

10.    STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share Based Payment” (“SFAS No. 123(R)”). SFAS No. 123(R) supersedes Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and amends SFAS No. 95, “Statement of Cash Flows.” Generally, the fair value approach in SFAS No. 123(R) is similar to the fair value approach described in SFAS No. 123. In 2005, the Company used the Black-Scholes-Merton formula to estimate the fair value of stock options granted to employees. The Company adopted SFAS No. 123(R), using the modified-prospective method, beginning January 1, 2006. Based on the terms of its equity compensation plans, the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R) did not require the Company to record a cumulative effect of adjustment. The Company also elected to continue to estimate the fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes-Merton formula.
In the first six months of 2006, because the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123, Stock-Based Compensation, and SFAS No. 123(R) were materially consistent under the Company’s valuation of its equity plans, the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R) did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial position or the Company’s results of operations. Further, the Company believes the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R) will not have a material impact on the Company’s future stock-based compensation expense.
Under the Company’s 1999 Employee Stock Option and Long-Term Incentive Plan, as amended (the “Option Plan”), the Company may grant options to its officers, directors and key employees for up to 289,406 shares of common stock (as adjusted for stock dividends). Under the Option Plan, the exercise price of each option is not to be less than 100% of the market price of the Company’s stock on the date of

grant and an option’s maximum term is ten years. The Company normally issues shares out of its treasury for any options exercised. The options have vesting schedules from 1 1/2 years through 9 years. At June 30, 2006, there were a total of 196,970 shares available for grant under the Option Plan.
As of December 31, 2005 there were 88,577 stock options outstanding under the Option Plan with a weighted-average exercise price of $21.32. During the three and six month period ended June 30, 2006 there were no options granted, exercised, forfeited, or expired. At June 30, 2006 there were 88,577 stock options outstanding under the Option Plan with a weighted-average exercise price of $21.32, an intrinsic value of $93 thousand, and a weighted-average remaining contractual term of 8.06 years. At June 30, 2006 there were 38,502 options exercisable at a weighted average exercise price of $21.77, an intrinsic value of $23 thousand, and a weighted-average remaining contractual term of 7.85 years.
On February 18, 2003, the Board of Directors of the Company adopted the Evans Bancorp, Inc. Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “Purchase Plan”). As of June 30, 2006, there were 84,090 shares of common stock available to issue to its full-time employees, nearly all of whom are eligible to participate. Under the terms of the Purchase Plan, employees can choose each year to have up to 15% of their annual base earnings withheld to purchase the Company’s common stock. The Company grants options on January 1 and July 1 of each year during the term of the Purchase Plan. The purchase price of the stock is 85% of the lower of its price on the grant date or the exercise date. Compensation cost is recognized for the fair value of the employees’ purchase rights, which was estimated using the Black-Scholes-Merton model.
As of June 30, 2006, there was approximately $151 thousand of total unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the Company’s equity plans. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.2 years. This expected cost does not include the impact of any future stock-based compensation awards. The compensation cost charged against income for those plans was $30 thousand and $60 thousand for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2006, respectively, and $49 thousand and $96 thousand for the same periods of 2005.
11.    RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In March 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 156, “Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets — an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140” (SFAS 156). This Statement amends SFAS 140, “Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities,” with respect to the accounting for separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities. This Statement requires all separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities to be initially measured at fair value, if practicable. It permits an entity to choose either the amortization method or the fair value measurement method for subsequent measurement for each class of separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities. This Statement will be effective for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2006. The adoption of this Statement is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
In June 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”). The interpretation clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a company’s financial statements in accordance with SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” Specifically, the pronouncement prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The interpretation also provides guidance on the related derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting for interim periods, disclosure and transition of uncertain tax positions. This interpretation will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The adoption of FIN 48 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

ITEM 2 — MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may contain certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. When used in this report, or in the documents incorporated by reference herein, the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “seek,” and similar expressions identify such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include statements regarding the Company’s business plans, prospects, growth and operating strategies, statements regarding the asset quality of the Company’s loan and investment portfolios, and estimates of the Company’s risks and future costs and benefits.
These forward-looking statements are based largely on the expectations of the Company’s management and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to general economic conditions, either nationally or in the Company’s market areas, that are worse than expected; increased competition among depository or other financial institutions; inflation and changes in the interest rate environment that reduce the Company’s margins or reduce the fair value of financial instruments; changes in laws or government regulations affecting financial institutions, including changes in regulatory fees and capital requirements; the Company’s ability to enter new markets successfully and capitalize on growth opportunities; the Company’s ability to successfully integrate acquired entities; changes in accounting pronouncements and practices, as adopted by financial institution regulatory agencies, the Financial Accounting Standards Board and the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board; changes in consumer spending, borrowing and saving habits; changes in the Company’s organization, compensation and benefit plans; and other factors discussed elsewhere in this Report on Form 10-Q, as well as in the Company’s periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Many of these factors are beyond the Company’s control and are difficult to predict.
Because of these and other uncertainties, the Company’s actual results, performance or achievements could differ materially from those contemplated, expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements contained herein. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. The Company undertakes no obligation, to publicly update or revise forward-looking information, whether as a result of new, updated information, future events or otherwise.
APPLICATION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
The Company’s Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and follow general practices within the industries in which it operates. Application of these principles requires management to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the Company’s Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes. These estimates, assumptions and judgments are based on information available as of the date of the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements. Accordingly, as this information changes, the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements could reflect different estimates, assumptions and judgments. Certain policies inherently have a greater reliance on the use of estimates, assumptions and judgments, and as such, have a greater possibility of producing results that could be materially different than originally reported. Estimates, assumptions and judgments are necessary when assets and liabilities are required to be recorded at fair value, when a decline in the value of an asset not carried on the financial statements at fair value warrants an impairment write-down or valuation reserve to be established, or when an asset or liability needs to be recorded contingent upon a future event. Carrying assets and liabilities at fair value inherently results in more financial statement volatility. The fair values and the information used to record valuation adjustments for certain assets and liabilities are based either on quoted market prices or are provided by other third-party sources, when available. When third-party information is not available, valuation adjustments are estimated in good faith by management primarily through the use of internal cash flow modeling techniques.
The most significant accounting policies followed by the Company are presented in Note 1 to the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 in its Annual Report on Form 10-K. These policies, along with the disclosures presented in the other Notes to the Company’s Audited Consolidated Financial Statements contained in its Annual Report on Form 10-K and in this financial review, provide information on how significant assets and liabilities are valued in the Company’s Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and how those values are determined.
Based on the valuation techniques used and the sensitivity of financial statement amounts to the methods, assumptions and estimates underlying those amounts, management has identified the determination of the allowance

for loan and lease losses and valuation of goodwill to be the accounting areas that require the most subjective or complex judgments, and as such, could be most subject to revision as new information becomes available.
Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses
The allowance for loan and lease losses represents management’s estimate of probable losses in the Bank’s loan and lease portfolio. Determining the amount of the allowance for loan and lease losses is considered a critical accounting estimate because it requires significant judgment on the part of management and the use of estimates related to the amount and timing of expected future cash flows on impaired loans and leases, estimated losses on pools of homogeneous loans and leases based on historical loss experience and consideration of current economic trends and conditions, all of which may be susceptible to significant change. The loan and lease portfolio also represents the largest asset type on the Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets. Note 1 to the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 in its Annual Report on Form 10-K describes the methodology used to determine the allowance for loan and lease losses.
Goodwill
The amount of goodwill reflected in the Company’s Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements is required to be tested by management for impairment on at least an annual basis. The test for impairment of goodwill on the identified reporting unit is considered a critical accounting estimate because it requires judgment on the part of management and the use of estimates related to the growth assumptions and market multiples used in the valuation model.
ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

     For the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2006, gross interest income that would have been reported on non-accruing loans and leases had they been current, was $20 thousand and $54 thousand, respectively. For the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2005, gross interest income that would have been reported on non-accruing loans and leases had they been current, was $36 thousand and $67 thousand, respectively.

Investing Activities
     Total securities declined to $148.1 million at June 30, 2006, reflecting a $5.4 million or 3.5% decrease from March 31, 2006, and an $11.9 million or 7.4% decrease from December 31, 2005. The decline in the securities portfolio was due in part to available funds being used for increased lending. The Company monitors extension and prepayment risk in the portfolio to limit potential exposures. Management believes the average expected life of the portfolio is 3.7 years as of June 30, 2006, as compared to 3.6 years as of March 31, 2006 and 3.5 years as of December 31, 2005. Available-for-sale securities with a total fair value of $137.6 million at June 30, 2006 were pledged as collateral to secure public deposits and for other purposes required or permitted by law.
Funding Activities
     Total deposits at June 30, 2006 were $343.0 million, reflecting a $25.2 million or 6.9% decrease from March 31, 2006. The decrease in deposits from March 31, 2006 was primarily attributable to a decrease in time deposits of $30.9 million or 18.2%. Due to higher short-term rates, the Bank has elected to utilize, when favorable, short-term borrowings in place of higher cost time deposit funding. Short-term borrowing from other correspondent banks and the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York was $32.2 million at June 30, 2006 as compared to no short-term borrowings at March 31, 2006 and $37.1 million at December 31, 2005. Additionally, Muni-vest balances decreased $3.6 million or 9.4% from March 31, 2006 as municipalities generally draw from these funds deposited in

the first fiscal quarter of the year throughout the remainder of the year to pay for their expenditures. These decreases were partially offset by increases of $5.0 million or 8.0% in demand deposits and $4.2 million or 4.9% in savings deposits, respectively, from March 31, 2006. Total deposits increased $6.2 million or 1.8% increase from December 31, 2005. The increase in deposits from December 31, 2005 was primarily attributable to an increase in muni-vest deposits of $7.2 million or 26.0%, which was the result of municipal tax collections in the first fiscal quarter of 2006. Additionally, savings deposits increased $3.2 million or 3.7% from December 31, 2005, while demand deposits decreased $3.0 million or 4.2% from December 31, 2005

Net Income
     Net income was $1.1 million or $0.39 per basic and diluted share for the three months ended June 30, 2006, as compared to $1.2 million or $0.44 per basic and diluted share for the same period in 2005. Net income represented a return on average assets of 0.92% and 1.02% for the three month periods ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

Other Operating Results
     Net interest income for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2006 was $3.6 million and $7.2 million, respectively, flat with and an increase of $0.3 million over the same periods in 2005. This is primarily a result of significant growth in the Bank’s loan and lease portfolio along with higher yields on loans and leases, offset by increased interest expense on time deposits and short-term borrowings.
     The net interest margin for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2006 was 3.43% and 3.46%, respectively, as compared to 3.45% and 3.41% for the same periods in 2005. The return on interest earning assets increased 74 basis points in the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2006 mainly due to higher rates on loans and a greater concentration of higher-yielding leases. Interest free funds also contributed 47 basis points and 46 basis points in the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2006, respectively, due to an increase in average demand deposits, compared to a 33 basis point and 31 basis point contribution in the same periods of 2005. This strong growth of loans and leases and demand deposits was offset by an increase in the Bank’s cost of interest-bearing liabilities, which increased to 3.24% and 3.07% in the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2006, respectively, from 2.34% and 2.23% in the same periods of 2005. The rise in short-term interest rates on federal funds purchased and time deposits, as a result of the Federal Reserve Bank Open Market Committee’s policy decisions, were the primary drivers of this increase in cost of funds.
     The provision for loan and lease losses for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2006 increased to $228 thousand and $510 thousand, respectively, from $188 thousand and $339 thousand for the same periods in 2005. The increase was a result of continued consumer and commercial loan growth, particularly the Bank’s expanding direct financing lease portfolio, through Evans National Leasing, which tends to have a higher credit risk than consumer loans and commercial loans collateralized by real estate.
     Non-interest income was $2.5 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2006, which is comparable to the $2.5 million in the same period of 2005. Non-interest income was $5.7 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2006, an increase of $0.2 million or 2.9% from the same period of 2005. Fee income on the expanding loan and lease portfolio, including a $45 thousand commercial prepayment penalty, along with increased ATM and interchange fee revenue from an increased ATM network contributed to non-interest income in the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2006. This was offset by a $0.1 million decrease in life insurance proceeds which were received in the second quarter of 2005, but not 2006. In the six month period ended June 30, 2006, increased insurance fee revenue of $0.1 million was primarily the result of increased profit sharing revenue at ENBI in the first quarter of 2006. This increase was offset by a $0.1 million decline in gains on sales of securities from the six month period ended June 30, 2005 to 2006.
     Non interest expense was $4.5 million for three month period ended June 30, 2006, an increase of $0.2 million or 4.2% from the same period in 2005. Non interest expense was $9.0 million for six month period ended June 30, 2006, an increase of $0.2 million or 2.1% from the same period in 2005. Salary and employee benefit expense for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2006 increased $0.2 million and $0.3 million, respectively, from the same periods in 2005, due to Company growth, including a new director of internal audit, and merit pay increases awarded in early 2006. Advertising and public relations expense for the three month period ended June 30, 2006 increased $0.1 million from the same period in 2005 for expenses related to the Bank’s redesigned retail deposit product suite. Professional services expense for the six month period ended June 30, 2006 declined $0.2 million from the same period in 2005 mainly due to expenses for certain revenue enhancement projects in the same period of 2005. Other expense for the six month period ended June 30, 2006 increased $0.1 million from the same period in 2005, mainly due to Company growth.
     Income tax expense totaled $336 thousand and $952 thousand for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2006, respectively, compared to $437 and $929 thousand for the same periods in 2005. The effective tax rate for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2006 was 23.9% and 27.8%, respectively, compared to 27.1% and 27.6% for the same periods in 2005. The decrease in effective tax rate in 2006 is primarily due to the higher composition of tax advantaged banking division income in the second quarter of 2006.
CAPITAL
     The Bank has consistently maintained regulatory capital ratios at, or above, federal “well capitalized” standards. Equity as a percentage of assets was 8.0% at June 30, 2006 and 7.9% at both March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005. Book value per common share was $13.65 at June 30, 2006, compared to $13.41 at March 31, 2006 and $13.51 at December 31, 2005. Total stockholders’ equity was $37.2 million at June 30, 2006, up from $36.5 million at March 31, 2006 and $36.9 million at December 31, 2005. The increase is primarily attributable to net income of $1.1 million and $2.5 million in the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2006, offset by $0.9

million in dividends in the six month period ended June 30, 2006 and an increase in unrealized losses in the investment portfolio of $0.5 million and $1.2 million in the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2006.
LIQUIDITY
     The Bank utilizes cash flows from the investment portfolio and federal funds sold balances to manage the liquidity requirements related to loan demand and deposit fluctuations. The Bank also has many borrowing options. As a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) the Bank is able to borrow funds at competitive rates. Advances of up to $45.0 million can be drawn on the FHLB via an Overnight Line of Credit Agreement between the Bank and the FHLB. An amount equal to 25% of the Bank’s total assets could be borrowed through the advance programs under certain qualifying circumstances. The Bank also has the ability to purchase up to $14.0 million in federal funds from its correspondent banks. By placing sufficient collateral in safekeeping at the Federal Reserve Bank, the Bank could also borrow at the discount window. Additionally, the Company has access to capital markets as a funding source.
     Cash flows from the Bank’s investment portfolio are laddered, so that securities mature at regular intervals, to provide funds from principal and interest payments at various times as liquidity needs may arise. Contractual maturities are also laddered, with consideration as to the volatility of market prices, so that securities are available-for-sale from time-to-time without the need to incur significant losses. At June 30, 2006, approximately 8.3% of the Bank’s securities had contractual maturity dates of one year or less and approximately 32.6% had maturity dates of five years or less. Available assets of $149.1 million, less public and purchased funds of $195.3 million, resulted in a long-term liquidity ratio of 76% at June 30, 2006, versus 85% at March 31, 2005 and 90% at December 31, 2005.
     The Company’s liquidity needs can also be met by more aggressively pursuing municipal deposits, which are normally awarded on the basis of competitive bidding. The Company believes that the Bank maintains a sufficient level of U.S. government and government agency securities and New York State municipal bonds that can be pledged as collateral for these deposits.
ITEM 3 — QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
     Additional information responsive to this Item is contained in the Liquidity section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, which information is incorporated herein by reference.
     Market risk is the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and/or interest rates of the Bank’s financial instruments. The primary market risk the Company is exposed to is interest rate risk. The core banking activities of lending and deposit-taking expose the Bank to interest rate risk, which occurs when assets and liabilities reprice at different times and by different amounts as interest rates change. As a result, net interest income earned by the Bank is subject to the effects of changing interest rates. The Bank measures interest rate risk by calculating the variability of net interest income in the future periods under various interest rate scenarios using projected balances for interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Management’s philosophy toward interest rate risk management is to limit the variability of net interest income to changes in net interest rates. The balances of financial instruments used in the projections are based on expected growth from forecasted business opportunities, anticipated prepayments of loans, and investment securities and expected maturities of investment securities, loans and deposits. Management supplements the modeling technique described above with analysis of market values of the Bank’s financial instruments and changes to such market values given changes in the interest rates.
     The Bank’s Asset Liability Committee, which includes members of senior management, monitors the Bank’s interest rate sensitivity with the aid of a computer model that considers the impact of ongoing lending and deposit taking activities, as well as interrelationships in the magnitude and timing of the repricing of financial instruments, including the effect of changing interest rates on expected prepayments and maturities. When deemed prudent, management has taken actions, and intends to do so in the future, to mitigate exposure to interest rate risk through the use of on- or off-balance sheet financial instruments. Possible actions include, but are not limited to, changing the pricing of loan and deposit products, and modifying the composition of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, and other financial instruments used for interest rate risk management purposes.

     The following table demonstrates the possible impact of changes in interest rates on the Bank’s net interest income over a 12 month period of time:
SENSITIVITY OF NET INTEREST INCOME
TO CHANGES IN INTEREST RATES
         
    Calculated (decrease) increase
in projected annual net interest income
(in thousands)
 
    June 30, 2006   December 31, 2005
Changes in interest rates

  (808)   (777)

  (401)   (386)
 
       
-100 basis points
  373    337 
-200 basis points
  606    542 
     Many assumptions were utilized by management to calculate the impact that changes in the interest rates may have on the Bank’s net interest income. The more significant assumptions related to the rate of prepayments of mortgage-related assets, loan and deposit volumes and pricing, and deposit maturities. The Bank assumed immediate changes in rates including 200 basis point rate changes. In the event that the 200 basis point rate changes cannot be achieved, the applicable rate changes are limited to lesser amounts such that interest rates cannot be less than zero. These assumptions are inherently uncertain and, as a result, the Bank cannot precisely predict the impact of changes in interest rates on net interest income. Actual results may differ significantly due to the timing, magnitude, and frequency of interest rate changes in market conditions and interest rate differentials (spreads) between maturity/repricing categories, as well as any actions such as those previously described, which management may take to counter such changes. In light of the uncertainties and assumptions associated with the process, the amounts presented in the table and changes in such amounts are not considered significant to the Bank’s projected net interest income.
ITEM 4 — CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
     The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on that evaluation, the Company’s principal executive and principal financial officers concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2006 (the end of the period covered by this Report) have been designed and are functioning effectively to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in its reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.
CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
     No changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting were identified in the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2006 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
