Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(unaudited)
Note 1 - General
This report includes interim consolidated financial statements of United
Bancorporation of Alabama, Inc. (the "Corporation") and its wholly-owned
subsidiary United Bank (the "Bank"). The interim consolidated financial
statements in this report have not been audited. In the opinion of management,
all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position and the
results of operations for the interim periods have been made. All such
adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations are not
necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the full year or any
other interim periods. For further information, refer to the consolidated
financial statements and footnotes included in the Company's annual report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2000.
NOTE 2 - New Accounting Pronouncements
In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities" SFAS 133 establishes accounting and reporting standards
for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in
other contracts, and for hedging activities. It requires that an entity
recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the statement of
financial position and measure those instruments at fair value. For United Bank,
SFAS 133, as amended by SFAS No. 137 and SFAS 138, is effective January 1, 2001.
Upon adoption of SFAS 133, management reclassified securities with a book value
of $13,975,608 and a fair value of $14,011,852 from the held-to-maturity
category to available-for-sale as permitted by the standard. This resulted in an
increase to accumulated other comprehensive income of $21,746 net of
corresponding deferred tax liability of $14,498. Otherwise, the adoption of SFAS
133 has had no impact on the financial statements of the Corporation.

NOTE 4 - Operating Segments
SFAS 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information,"
establishes standards for the disclosure made by public business enterprises to
report information about operating segments in annual financial statements and
requires those enterprises to report selected information about operating
segments in interim financial reports issued to shareholders. It also
establishes standards for related disclosures about products and services,
geographic areas, and major customers. The Company operates in only one segment
- commercial banking.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
Results of Operations
The following financial review is presented to provide a comparative analysis of
the results of operations of United Bancorporation of Alabama, Inc. (the
"Corporation") and its subsidiary for the three months ended March 31, 2000 and
2001. This review should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
statements included in the Form 10-Q.
Summary
Net income after taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2001 increased
$42,800, or 9.37%, as compared to the same period in 2000.
Net Interest Income
Total interest income increased by $185,755, or 4.44%, during the first quarter
of 2001. Average interest-earning assets were $209,946,137 for the first quarter
of 2001 as compared to $202,153,766 for the same period in 2000, an increase of
$7,792,371 or 3.85%. The average rate earned in 2001 was 8.42% as compared to
8.32% in 2000, reflecting a continuing impact of the increase in rates by the
Federal Reserve Board during the latter part of 2000. The net interest margin
decreased to 4.09% for the first quarter of 2001, as compared to 4.40% for the
same period in 2000. This decrease is attributed to the fact that liabilities
have repriced faster than the earning assets. To the extent that interest
earning assets reprice (e.g., variable rate loans) the Bank expects
7
8
yields on earning assets to fall as a result of the Federal Reserve Board
lowering interest rates during the first part of 2001.
Total interest expense increased by $265,363, or 13.45%, in 2001. The increase
in interest expense is attributed primarily to the increase in the average rate
paid during the first quarter of 2001. The average rate paid during the first
quarter of 2001 was 5.20% as compared to 4.68% for the same period in 2000. This
rate increase is due to the increase of CD rates in the 3rd and 4th quarter of
2000, resulting from increase in federal fund rates and the increase competition
in certain new markets. Average interest bearing liabilities decreased to
$163,944,640 in 2001, from $169,478,373 in 2000, a decrease of $5,533,733, or
3.26%.
Noninterest Income
Total noninterest income increased to $574,382 for the first quarter of 2001, as
compared to $385,109 for the same period of 2000, an increase of $189,273, or
49.15%. This increase was caused primarily by three factors: 1) service charges
on deposits increased $78,648, or 27.30%, due to among other things an increase
in pricing on overdraft fees and 2) gains realized from the sale of investment
securities of $65,671.
Noninterest Expense
Total noninterest expense increased $44,905 or 2.41% during the first quarter of
2001 primarily due to increased salaries and benefits of $34,135. Most of the
increase can be contributed to a new branch opening which also attributed to an
increase in occupancy expense of $7,891. The Bank expects to see an increase in
occupancy expense as it continues to add new branches in 2001.
Income Taxes
Earnings before taxes for the first quarter of 2001 increased $42,800, or 9.36%,
compared to the same period of 2000. Income tax expense increased to $179,997 in
2001 from $163,037 in 2000, an increase of $16,960, or 10.40% which resulted
primarily from the increase of approximately $60,000 in earning before income
tax expense. The effective tax rate increased from 26.29% to 26.47%.
Financial Condition and Liquidity
Total assets on March 31, 2001 decreased $11,612,728 or 5.02% as compared to
December 31, 2000. This decrease was primarily caused by the loss of a public
fund deposit. The bank was not awarded a bid and approximately $23,500,000 was
withdrawn from the bank in March. This decrease was offset by liquidating
certain securities and borrowing funds
8
9
from the Federal Home Loan Bank. Management does not expect and has not incurred
any liquidity problems as a result of the loss of the public fund account.
Average total assets for the first quarter of 2001 were $226,766,841 as compared
to $216,335,842 for the same period in 2000.
Loans
Net loans increased by $1,409,084 or 1.01% at March 31, 2001, from December 31,
2000. Most of this growth in loans occurred in the Baldwin County markets and
was primarily in commercial real estate loans. The net loan to deposit ratio on
March 31, 2001 was 82.98%, as compared to 72.27% on December 31, 2000. This
increase was due to the decrease in deposits caused by the loss of public fund
account discussed above.
Allowance and Provision for Loan Losses
The allowance for loan losses represents 1.42% of gross loans at March 31, 2001,
as compared to 1.37% at year-end 2000. Loans on which the accrual of interest
had been discontinued amounted to $730,881 at March 31, 2001, as compared to
$386,213 at December 31, 2000. The majority of this increase is due to a
business loan that was classified nonaccrual during the quarter.
The provision for loan losses increased to $120,000 for the first three months
of 2001, as compared to $115,000 for the same period in 2000. Net charged-off
loans for the first quarter of 2001 were $28,747, as compared to $48,477 net
charge-offs in the first quarter of 2000.
The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level which, in management's
opinion, is appropriate to provide for estimated losses in the portfolio at the
balance sheet date. Factors considered in determining the adequacy of the
allowance include historical loan loss experience, the amount of past due loans,
loans classified from the most recent regulatory examinations and internal
reviews, general economic conditions and the current portfolio mix. The amount
charged to operating expenses is that amount necessary to maintain the allowance
for loan losses at a level indicative of the associated risk, as determined by
management, of the current portfolio.
The allowance for loan losses consists of two portions: the classified portion
and the nonclassified portion. The classified portion is based on identified
problem loans and is calculated based on an assessment of credit risk related to
those loans. Specific loss estimate amounts are included in the allowance based
on assigned classifications as follows: substandard (15%), doubtful (50%), and
loss (100%).
The nonclassified portion of the allowance is for inherent losses which probably
exist as of the evaluation date even though they may not have been identified by
the more objective processes for the classified portion of the allowance. This
is due to the risk of error and
9
10
inherent imprecision in the process. This portion of the allowance is
particularly subjective and requires judgments based upon qualitative factors
which do not lend themselves to exact mathematical calculations. Some of the
factors considered are changes in credit concentrations, loan mix, historical
loss experience, and general economic environment in the Corporation's markets.
While the total allowance is described as consisting of a classified and a
nonclassified portion, these terms are primarily used to describe a process.
Both portions are available to support inherent losses in the loan portfolio.
Management realizes that general economic trends greatly affect loan losses, and
no assurances can be made that future charges to the allowance for loan losses
will not be significant in relation to the amount provided during a particular
period, or that future evaluations of the loan portfolio based on conditions
then prevailing will not require sizable charges to income. Management does,
however, consider the allowance for loan losses to be appropriate for the
reported periods.
Non-performing Assets: The following table sets forth the Corporation's
non-performing assets at March 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000. Under the
Corporation's nonaccrual policy, a loan is placed on nonaccrual status when
collectibility of principal and interest is in doubt or when principal and
interest is 90 days or more past due.

Investment Securities
The investment securities available for sale increased by $8,291,473 or 21.67%
in the first quarter of 2001, from December 31, 2000. This increase is
attributed to purchases and the adoption of SFAS 133 and the reclassification of
all held to maturity securities to available for sale. Total securities
decreased due to the sale of securities to help offset the loss of the public
fund account discussed above.
Premises and Equipment
Premises and equipment increased $349,000 during the first quarter of 2001 due
to the opening of a new branch and the purchasing of new computer equipment to
begin the process of performing computer processing of daily operating activity
in house.
Deposits
Total deposits decreased $21,617,488, or 11.82%, at March 31, 2001, from
December 31, 2000. Non-interest bearing deposits increased $694,016 or 2.3% at
quarter end from the year-end total. Interest bearing deposits decreased
$22,311,504, or 13.81%, at March 31, 2001, from December 31, 2000. The decreases
in deposits were the result of the loss of the public fund account mentioned
above. Average total deposits for the first quarter of 2001 were $184,177,956,
as compared to $177,040,079 for the same period in 2000.
Other Borrowed Funds
As mentioned above, the Bank borrowed an additional $8,000,000 in Federal Home
Loan Bank advances at various terms with a weighted average interest rate of
5.09%.
Capital Adequacy
The Corporation relies primarily on internally generated capital growth to
maintain capital adequacy. Total stockholders' equity on March 31, 2001, was
$21,170,829, an increase of $1,066,356, or 5.30%, from $20,104,473 at year-end
2000.
Primary capital to total assets at March 31, 2001, was 9.63%, as compared to
8.68% at year-end 2000. Total capital and allowances for loan losses to total
assets at March 31, 2001 were 10.55%, as compared to 9.52% at December 31, 2000.
This increase in capital ratio is due to the shrinkage of the assets of the bank
from the loss of the public fund account. The Corporation had risk based capital
of $22,579,000, or 14.58%, at March 31, 2001, as compared to $21,992,000, or
14.62%, at year end 2000. The minimum total capital requirement is 8.00%. Based
on management's projections, internally generated capital should be sufficient
to satisfy capital requirements in the foreseeable future for existing
operations, but the growth into new markets may require the Bank to access
external funding sources.

Item 3. Market Risk Disclosures
Market risk is the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and rates.
The Bank's market risk arises principally from interest rate risk inherent in
its lending, deposit and borrowing activities. Management actively monitors and
manages its interest rate risk exposure. Although the Bank manages other risk,
such as credit quality and liquidity risk, in the normal course of business,
management considers interest rate risk to be its most significant market risk.
Interest rate risk could potentially have the largest material effect on the
Bank's financial condition and results of operations. Other types of market
risks, such as foreign currency exchange rate risk, generally do not arise in
the Bank's normal course of business activities to any significant extent.
The Bank's profitability is affected by fluctuations in interest rates.
Management's goal is to maintain a reasonable balance between exposure to
interest rate fluctuations and earnings. A sudden and substantial increase in
interest rates may adversely impact the Bank's earnings to the extent that the
interest rates on interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities do
not change at the same speed, to the same extent or on the same basis.
The Bank's Asset Liability Management Committee ("ALCO") monitors and considers
methods of managing the rate and sensitivity repricing characteristics of the
balance sheet components consistent with maintaining acceptable levels of
changes in the net portfolio value ("NPV") and net interest income. NPV
represents the market values of portfolio equity and is equal to the market
value of assets minus the market value of liabilities, with adjustments made for
off- balance sheet items over a range of assumed changes in market interest
rates. A primary purpose of the Bank's ALCO is to manage interest rate risk to
effectively invest the Bank's capital and to preserve the value created by its
core business operations. As such, certain management monitoring processes are
designed to minimize the impact of sudden and sustained changes in interest
rates on NPV and net interest income.
The Bank's exposure to interest rate risk is reviewed on a quarterly basis by
the Board of Directors and the ALCO. Interest rate risk exposure is measured
using interest rate sensitivity analysis to determine the Bank's change in NPV
in the event of hypothetical changes in interest rates. Further, interest rate
sensitivity gap analysis is used to determine the repricing characteristics of
the Bank's assets and liabilities. The ALCO is charged with the responsibility
to maintain the level of sensitivity of the Bank's net interest margin within
Board approved limits.
Interest rate sensitivity analysis is used to measure the Bank's interest rate
risk by computing estimated changes in NPV of its cash flows from assets,
liabilities, and off-balance sheet items in the event of a range of assumed
changes in market interest rates. This analysis assesses the risk of loss in
market risk sensitive instruments in the event of a sudden and sustained 100 -
300 basis points increase or decrease in the market interest rates. The Bank
uses the Sendero Model Level II, which takes the current rate structure of the
portfolio and shocks for each rate level and calculates the new market value
equity at each level. The Bank's Board of Directors has adopted an interest rate
risk policy, which establishes maximum allowable decreases in net interest
margin in the event of a sudden and sustained increase or decrease in market
interest

rates. The following table presents the Bank's projected change in NPV for the
various rate shock levels as of March 31, 2001. All market risk sensitive
instruments presented in this table are held to maturity or available for sale.
The Bank has no trading securities.

The preceding table indicates that at March 31, 2001, in the event of a sudden
and sustained increase in prevailing market interest rates, the Bank's NPV would
be expected to decrease, and that in the event of a sudden decrease in
prevailing market interest rates, the Bank's NPV would be expected to increase.
The recent growth in loans and loss of the public fund account have caused the
Corporation to become more liability sensitive over the period of a year, but
the net interest margin remains stable in all interest rate environments tested.
Computation of prospective effects of hypothetical interest rate changes
included in these forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks,
uncertainties, and assumptions including relative levels of market interest
rates, loan prepayments and deposit decay rates, and should not be relied upon
as indicative of actual results. Further, the computations do not contemplate
any actions the Bank could undertake in response to changes in interest rates.
