Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

Note A – Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation: The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the parent company Main Street Banks, Inc. (“Company”) and its direct and indirect wholly owned subsidiaries, Main Street Bank (“Bank”), Main Street Insurance Services, Inc. (“MSII”), Piedmont Settlement Services, Inc. (“Piedmont”) and MSB Payroll Solutions, LLC. All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements for the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, followed within the financial services industry for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required for complete financial statement presentation. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for interim periods have been included.

The results of operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2005, or for any other period. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2004, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Certain previously reported amounts have been reclassified to conform to current financial statement presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on net income or stockholders’ equity.

Note B - Acquisition

On January 2, 2004, MSII acquired substantially all of the assets of Banks Moneyhan Hayes Insurance Agency, Inc. (“BMIA”), an insurance agency headquartered in Conyers, Georgia. This acquisition provided MSII with an opportunity to expand its market share in Clarke and Rockdale Counties, Georgia. The transaction was accounted for as a purchase business combination and accordingly, the results of operations of BMIA are included from the acquisition date. The Company issued 271,109 shares of its common stock as consideration. The purchase price was based on the market value of the 271,109 shares issued at the closing market price of the Company’s common stock of $25.82 on December 5, 2003, the date the acquisition was announced. The Company allocated the purchase price among the BMIA assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values at the time the acquisition was consummated and the remainder of the purchase price was allocated to identifiable intangibles and goodwill. Goodwill of $4.7 million and Intangible Assets of $2.8 million were created as a result of the transaction. Intangible assets include covenants not to compete and customer lists and will be amortized over a 5 to 15 year period. The Company estimates that $212,000 of the amortization expense for these intangible assets will be deductible for tax purposes in 2005. This acquisition also includes an “earn-out” provision which is based upon future revenue and earnings goals, for a period of five years. The maximum potential for future payments the Company could be required to make under this “earn-out” provision is $1.2 million. The “earn-out” will be booked as additional Goodwill in the amounts and at the times that it is deemed to be earned. Summarized below is the allocation of assets and liabilities acquired (in thousands):


Assets acquired:
Cash and Cash equivalents	$	180
Other assets		33
Goodwill		4,717
Intangible assets		2,781

Total Assets	$	7,711

Liabilities acquired:
Other liabilities		711

Total Liabilities	$	711

As of June 30, 2005, MSII has booked an additional $0.3 million in goodwill as a result of the “earn-out” provision.

Note C – Other Accounting Matters

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No. 123 (Revised 2004) (“SFAS No. 123R”), “Share-Based Payment,” in December 2004. SFAS No. 123R is a revision of FASB Statement 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock

Issued to Employees,” and its related implementation guidance. The Statement focuses primarily on accounting for transactions in which an entity obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions. SFAS No. 123R requires a public entity to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award (with limited exceptions). That cost will be recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award. This statement was to be effective as of the beginning of the first annual reporting period that begins after June 15, 2005.

In April 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) announced that it would provide for a phased-in implementation process for SFAS No. 123R. The SEC would require that registrants adopt Statement 123R’s fair value method of accounting for share-based payments to employees no later than the beginning of the first fiscal year beginning after June 15, 2005. The Company has elected to adopt SFAS No. 123R beginning in January 2006. The adoption of this statement is expected to have a material impact on the financial condition and operating results of the Company.

In January 2003, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 46 (“FIN 46”), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities. In December 2003, the FASB revised Interpretation No. 46 (FIN 46R”). The Company determined that certain trusts created by it to issue trust preferred securities required deconsolidation due to the provisions of FIN 46R. Accordingly, as of June 30, 2004, the Company was required to deconsolidate these trusts. The deconsolidation required the Company to remove $50.0 million in trust preferred securities from its consolidated financial statements and to record junior subordinated debentures payable to these trusts of $51.5 million and record the Company’s investment in the trusts of $1.5 million in other assets. The trust preferred securities had been counted as Tier 1 capital for regulatory purposes as minority interests in consolidated subsidiaries. In July 2003, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System issued a supervisory letter instructing bank holding companies to continue to include the trust preferred securities in Tier 1 capital for regulatory capital purposes until further notice, even though the trusts that issued the trust preferred securities were not consolidated with their parent bank holding companies under FIN 46. On May 6, 2004, the Federal Reserve proposed changes to its capital adequacy rules that would continue to include limited amounts of qualified trust preferred securities as Tier 1 capital, notwithstanding the change in GAAP resulting from FIN 46 and FIN 46R.

Currently, other than the impact described above from the deconsolidation of the trust preferred securities, the adoption of FIN 46 and FIN 46R has not had a material impact on the financial condition or the operating results of the Company. Prior periods have not been restated for this change in accounting methods.

In March 2004, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 105, Application of Accounting Principles to Loan Commitments. Current accounting guidance requires the commitment to originate mortgage loans to be held for sale be recognized on the balance sheet at fair value from inception through expiration or funding. SAB 105 requires that the fair-value measurement include only differences between the guaranteed interest rate in the loan commitment and a market interest rate, excluding any expected future cash flows related to the customer relationship or loan servicing. SAB 105 was effective for commitments to originate mortgage loans to be held for sale that are entered into after June 30, 2004. Its adoption did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial position or results of the Company.

Note D - Earnings per Common Share

The Company accounts for earnings per share in accordance with FASB Statement No. 128, Earnings Per Share (“Statement 128”). Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is calculated by adding to the shares outstanding the additional net effect of employee stock options that could be exercised into common shares. The computation of diluted earnings per share is as follows:


	Three months ended				Six months ended

Note E – Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheets.

The contract amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of involvement the Company has in particular classes of financial instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as are used for on-balance-sheet instruments.

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.

The Company issues standby letters of credit, which are conditional commitments issued to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Those guarantees are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements and expire in decreasing amounts with terms ranging from one to four years. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. The Company holds various assets as collateral supporting those commitments for which collateral is deemed necessary.

The Company evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the borrower. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment, residential real estate, and income-producing commercial properties on those commitments for which collateral is deemed necessary.

The following represents the Company’s commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit:

Note F - Loans

Loans are stated at the principal amounts outstanding adjusted for purchase premiums / discounts, deferred net loan fees and costs, and unearned income. Interest income on loans is generally recognized over the terms of the loans based on the unpaid daily principal amount outstanding. If the collectibility of interest appears doubtful, the accrual thereof is discontinued. When accrual of interest is discontinued, all current period unpaid interest is reversed. Interest income on such loans is subsequently recognized only to the extent cash payments are received, the full recovery of principal is anticipated, or after full principal has been recovered when collection of principal is in question.

A substantial portion of the Company’s loans are secured by real estate in northeast Georgia communities, primarily in Barrow, Clarke, Cobb, DeKalb, Forsyth, Fulton, Gwinnett, Newton, Rockdale, and Walton counties. In addition, a substantial portion of real estate acquired through foreclosure consists of single-family residential properties and land located in these same markets. The ultimate collectibility of a substantial portion of the Company’s loan portfolio and the recovery of a substantial portion of the carrying amount of real estate are susceptible to changes in economic and market conditions in northeast Georgia.

The Company occasionally sells the guaranteed portion of Small Business Administration (“SBA”) loans to third parties and retains the servicing rights for these loans. The Company has limited recourse related to these sales if a loan sold by the Bank defaults within 90 days of sale. The servicing asset for the sold portion of the SBA loans is included in Loans, net of unearned income. The Company repurchased three loans totaling $170 thousand in principal amount during the quarter ended June 30, 2005 subject to the recourse provision.

The Company evaluates loans for impairment when a loan is risk rated as substandard or doubtful. The Company measures impairment based upon the present value of the loan’s expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, except where foreclosure or liquidation is probable or when the primary source of repayment is provided by real estate collateral. In these circumstances, impairment is measured based upon the estimated fair value of the collateral. In addition, in certain circumstances, impairment may be based on the loan’s observable estimated fair value. Impairment with regard to substantially all of the Company’s impaired loans has been measured based on the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral. The Company’s policy for recognizing interest income on impaired loans is consistent with its nonaccrual policy. At the time the contractual payments on a loan are deemed to be uncollectible, the Company’s policy is to record a charge-off against the Allowance for Loan Losses.

Nonperforming assets include loans classified as nonaccrual or renegotiated and foreclosed real estate. It is the policy of the Company to stop accruing interest income and place the recognition of interest on a cash basis when any commercial, industrial or commercial real estate loan is 90 days or more past due as to principal or interest and/or the ultimate collection of either is in doubt. On an exception basis the Company will continue to accrue interest on loans 90 days or more past due when collection of both principal and interest is assured by way of collateralization, guarantees or other security. Accrual of interest income on consumer loans, including residential real estate loans, is suspended when any payment of principal or interest, or both, is more than 120 days delinquent. When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, any interest previously accrued but not collected is reversed against current income unless the collateral for the loan is sufficient to cover the accrued interest or a guarantor assures payment of interest.

The following table represents the composition of the Company’s loan portfolio:

At June 30, 2005 the Company has a remaining market value adjustment on loans that were acquired in the First Colony Bancshares, Inc. acquisition of $0.4 million which is reflected in the loan amounts above. This balance is being amortized monthly.

Note G - Stock Options and Long-term Compensation Plans

The Company has elected to follow Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 “Accounting for Stock issued to Employees” (APB 25) and related interpretations in accounting for its employee stock options. Under APB 25, because the exercise price of the Company’s employee stock options equals the market price of the underlying stock on the date of grant, no compensation expense is recognized.

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”, as amended by SFAS No.148, requires pro forma disclosures of net income and earnings per share for companies not adopting its fair value accounting method for stock-based employee compensation. The pro-forma disclosure below uses the fair value method of SFAS 123 to measure compensation expense for stock-based employee compensation plans. Because the Company’s employee stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management’s opinion, the existing model does not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of its employee stock options.

For purposes of pro forma disclosures, the estimated fair value of the options granted is amortized to expense over the options’ vesting period. The Company’s pro forma information follows (in thousands except per share data):

Note H – Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Intangible assets related to capital lease rights are being amortized over the term of the related lease using the straight-line method. Core deposit intangible assets are amortized over a period of 5 to 20 years. All other intangible assets are being amortized over a 15 year period using the straight-line method.

The Company recognized amortization expense on intangible assets for the three month periods ending June 30, 2005 and 2004 of $130,764 and $121,758, respectively.

ITEM 2.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following is management’s discussion and analysis of certain significant factors which have affected the Company’s financial position at June 30, 2005 as compared to December 31, 2004 and operating results for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2005 as compared to the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004. These comments should be read in conjunction with the Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes appearing elsewhere herein.

Overview

The Company’s total assets increased $44.9 million or 1.93% since December 2004. Federal funds sold decreased $35.5 million primarily due to an increase in loan demand. Loans increased 3.81% or $64.7 million since December 2004, while the investment portfolio decreased $11.5 million. Total deposits decreased by 1.89% or $32.4 million due primarily to the maturity of brokered and national deposits.

Return on average equity for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 was 8.17% and 9.90% on average equity of $284.4 million and $282.5 million, respectively. This compares to 13.75% and 14.11% on average equity of $215.1 million and $212.5 million for the same period in 2004. Return on average assets for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 was 0.99% and 1.19%. This compares to 1.41% and 1.47% for the same period in 2004.

Summary

During the first six months of 2005 there have been several events that occurred that had an impact on the financial performance of the Company:

Elevated charge-offs in a problem loan portfolio - The Company performed a comprehensive review of a problem loan portfolio originated by a former lending officer. This problem portfolio was first identified and announced in November 2004. With the assistance of a nationally recognized auditing and consulting firm, the Company conducted a review and has identified $4.0 million in charge-offs in the problem portfolio that were charged-off in the first and second quarter of 2005.

Write-off of assets - The Company combined the operations of its loan settlement services subsidiary, Piedmont Settlement Services, including the staff and systems, into the Bank to aid in the centralization of consumer loan document preparation and to improve corporate efficiency. The associated assets in this subsidiary were written off in the second quarter. The Company recognized a loss of $0.4 million during the second quarter of 2005.

The Company’s first quarter results were also impacted by a $0.5 million loss for the replacement of a banking center in Conyers, Georgia. This center was demolished to provide for the opening of a newly constructed full-service banking center.

Additional income tax expenses – Based upon an analysis of its income tax position, the Company’s income tax expense includes an additional income tax provision of $0.6 million in the second quarter. The Company expects its effective tax rate to be approximately 31% for the remainder of 2005.

Sale of 504 SBA loans—Income from SBA lending was higher than normal due to the sale of $10.2 million in loans from the SBA 504 program. Loans originated under this program are initially retained by the Company and are periodically sold in bulk after certain seasoning requirements. The Company recognized a net gain on this sale of $0.5 million.

High Performance Checking campaign - The Company’s free consumer checking program, High Performance Checking, was launched in late March 2005 and is enhancing growth in checking balances and fee income. During 2005, the Company continued to emphasize low cost core deposits through its High Performance Checking program.

Increased professional services expense – The Company has incurred $0.4 million in additional professional services expense related to accounting and consultant services. These services were necessary to complete the review of the problem loan portfolio, income tax review, and to remediate material weaknesses identified during the Company’s assessment of compliance with the requirements of internal control reporting and Sarbanes-Oxley Section 404.

Purchase of additional BOLI – During the first quarter of 2005 the Company purchased $15.0 million in additional Bank Owned Life Insurance. It is estimated that this transaction will generate an additional $0.6 million in revenue in 2005 that will be used to fund employee benefit programs.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2005 and 2004

Interest Income

Interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2005 was $35.5 million, an increase of $7.0 million, or 24.56% compared to $28.5 million for the same period in 2004. Interest on federal funds sold decreased due to the Company’s decision to use the funds to support loan growth. Average earning assets for the three month period increased $0.2 billion, or 10.53% to $2.1 billion as of June 30, 2005 compared to $1.9 billion as of June 30, 2004. Yield on earning assets increased 66 basis points to 6.80% from 6.14% between the quarters ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, as a result of rising interest rates and asset pricing discipline.

Interest Expense

Interest expense on deposits and other borrowings for the three months ended June 30, 2005 was $12.5 million, representing a $4.2 million, or 50.60% increase from June 30, 2004. While average interest bearing liabilities increased $0.2 billion, or 10.53% to $2.1 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2005 compared to $1.9 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2004, the rate on average interest bearing liabilities increased 65 basis points to 2.42% for the second quarter of 2005 from 1.77% for the second quarter of 2004. The increase is due to rising interest rates, competition in the Atlanta market for deposits, the increased cost of wholesale funding through brokered certificates of deposits, Federal Home Loan Bank advances and federal funds purchased.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2005 increased $2.8 million, or 13.86% to $23.0 million compared to $20.2 million for the same period ending June 30, 2004. The increase was mainly attributable to growth in balances, improved asset pricing, and wider spreads on core deposit funding. The Company’s net interest margin increased to 4.42% for the three months ended June 30, 2005 compared to 4.41% for the three months ended June 30, 2004.

Provision for Loan Losses

The provision for loan losses was $4.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2005 as compared to $1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004. The increase was due to identification of additional impairment of a former loan officer’s portfolio and was also impacted by new loan growth. The Credit Committee continues to monitor asset indicators to determine the adequacy of the loan loss reserve. These factors include changes in the size and character of the loan portfolio, changes in nonperforming and past due loans, historical loan loss experience, the existing risk of individual loans, concentrations of loans to specific borrowers or industries and current economic conditions. Management believes that the allowance for loan losses was adequate at June 30, 2005.

Non-interest Income

Non-interest income was $7.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2005; an increase of $0.5 million, or 6.76% compared to $7.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004. The major component of the increase was income from the sale of SBA loans. The income from the sale of SBA loans increased $1.1 million, or 275.00% to $1.5 million from $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Gains on the sale of securities declined by $0.5 million during the three months ending June 30, 2005 compared to the same period in 2004.

Non-interest Expense

Non-interest expense increased $1.4 million or 8.70% to $17.5 million from $16.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Salaries were $8.6 million, an increase of $0.9 million, or 11.69% from the three months ended June 30, 2004. The Company’s full-time equivalent employees declined by 45 to 508 as of June 30, 2005 from 553 as of June 30, 2004. The Company’s efficiency ratio was 56.26% for the three months ended June 30, 2005 compared to 58.38% for the three months ended June 30, 2004.

Income Taxes

The amount of income tax expense is influenced by the amount of taxable income, the amount of tax-exempt income, and the amount of nondeductible expenses. For the three months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, the provision for taxes was $3.6 million and $2.8 million, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2005 was 38.18% compared to 27.50% for the same period in 2004. This effective rate increase is due to changes in the level of tax-advantaged loans and investments and is impacted by federal and state tax planning strategies.

Results of Operations for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2005 and 2004

Interest Income

Interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2005 was $68.4 million, an increase of $12.2 million, or 21.71% compared to $56.2 million for the same period in 2004. Interest on federal funds sold decreased due to the Company’s decision to use the funds to support loan growth. Average earning assets for the six month period ending June 30, 2005 increased $0.2 billion, or 10.53% to $2.1 billion compared to $1.9 billion for the six month period ending June 30, 2004. Yield on average earning assets increased 41 basis points to 6.62% from 6.21% between the six month periods ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, as a result of rising interest rates and asset pricing discipline.

Interest Expense

Interest expense on deposits and other borrowings for the six months ended June 30, 2005 was $23.8 million, a $7.8 million, or 48.75% increase from June 30, 2004. While average interest bearing liabilities increased $0.2 billion, or 10.53% to $2.1 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2005 compared to $1.9 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2004, the cost of average interest bearing liabilities increased 57 basis points to 2.34% from 1.77%. The increase is due to rising interest rates, competition in the Atlanta market for deposits, and the increased cost of wholesale funding through brokered certificates of deposits, Federal Home Loan Bank advances and federal funds purchased.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2005 increased $4.5 million, or 11.22% to $44.6 million, compared to $40.1 million for the same period ending June 30, 2004. The increase was mainly attributable to growth in balances, improved asset pricing and wider spreads on core deposit funding. The Company’s net interest margin decreased to 4.32% for the six months ended June 30, 2005 compared to 4.50% as of June 30, 2004.

The provision for loan losses was $6.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005 compared to $2.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004. The increase was due to identification of additional impairment of a former loan officer’s portfolio and was also impacted by new loan growth. The Credit Committee continues to monitor asset indicators to determine the adequacy of the loan loss reserve. These factors include changes in the size and character of the loan portfolio, changes in nonperforming and past due loans, historical loan loss experience, the existing risk of individual loans, concentrations of loans to specific borrowers or industries and current economic conditions. Management believes that the allowance for loan losses was adequate at June 30, 2005.

Non-interest Income

Non-interest income was $16.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005; an increase of $0.7 million, or 4.58% compared to $15.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004. The major components of the increase were insurance agency income and income from the sale of SBA loans. Insurance agency income increased $0.4 million, or 7.84% to $5.5 million from $5.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. The income from the sale of SBA loans increased $1.5 million, or 166.67% to $2.4 million from $0.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Gains on the sale of securities declined by $0.6 million during the six months ending June 30, 2005 compared to the same period in 2004.

Non-interest Expense

Non-interest expense increased $1.4 million or 4.42% to $33.1 million from $31.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Salaries were $16.5 million, an increase of $0.8 million, or 5.10% from the six months ended June 30, 2004. The Company’s efficiency ratio was 54.41% for the six months ended June 30, 2005 compared to 57.24% for the six months ended June 30, 2004.

Income Taxes

The amount of income tax expense is influenced by the amount of taxable income, the amount of tax-exempt income, and the amount of nondeductible expenses. For the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, the provision for taxes was $7.2 million and $5.8 million, respectively. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2005 was 34.07% compared to 28.01% for the same period in 2004. This effective rate increase is due to changes in the level of tax-advantaged loans and investments and is impacted by federal and state tax planning strategies.

Capital

Capital management consists of providing equity to support both current and anticipated future operations. The Company is subject to capital adequacy requirements imposed by the Federal Reserve Board and the Georgia Department of Banking and Finance (“Georgia Department”) and the Bank is subject to capital adequacy requirements imposed by the FDIC and the Georgia Department.

The Federal Reserve Board, the FDIC, and the Georgia Department have adopted risk-based capital requirements for assessing bank holding company and bank capital adequacy. These standards define and establish minimum capital requirements in relation to assets and off-balance sheet exposure, adjusted for credit risk. The risk-based capital standards currently in effect are designed to make regulatory capital requirements more sensitive to differences in risk profiles among bank holding companies and banks, and to account for off-balance sheet exposure.

The guideline for a minimum ratio of capital to total risk-weighted assets (including certain off- balance-sheet activities, such as standby letters of credit) is 8%. At least half of the total capital must consist of Tier 1 Capital, which includes common equity, retained earnings and a limited amount of qualifying preferred stock and qualifying trust preferred securities, less goodwill. The remainder may consist of non-qualifying preferred stock, qualifying subordinated, perpetual, and/or mandatory convertible debt, term subordinated debt and intermediate term preferred stock and up to 45% of the pretax unrealized holding gains on available-for-sale equity securities with readily determinable market values that are prudently valued, and a limited amount of any loan loss allowance (“Tier 2 Capital” and, together with Tier 1 Capital, “Total Capital”).

In addition, the federal agencies have established minimum leverage ratio guidelines for bank holding companies and state banks, which provide for a minimum leverage ratio of Tier 1 Capital to adjusted average quarterly assets (“leverage ratio”) equal to 3%, plus an additional cushion of 1.0% to 2.0%, if the institution has less than the highest regulatory rating. The guidelines also provide that institutions experiencing internal growth or making acquisitions will be expected to maintain strong capital positions substantially above the minimum supervisory levels without significant reliance on intangible assets. Higher capital may be required in individual cases, depending upon a bank holding company’s risk profile. All bank holding companies and banks are expected to hold capital commensurate with the level and nature of their risks, including the volume and severity of their problem loans. Lastly, the Federal Reserve’s guidelines indicate that the Federal Reserve will continue to consider a “Tangible Tier 1 Leverage Ratio” (deducting all intangibles) in evaluating proposals for expansion or new activity.

The capital measures used by the federal banking regulators are the Total Capital ratio, the Tier 1 Capital ratio, and the leverage ratio. Under the regulations, a bank holding company or a bank will be well capitalized if it has a Total Capital ratio of 10% or greater, a Tier 1 Capital ratio of 6% or greater, a leverage ratio of 5% or greater, and is not subject to any written agreement, order, capital directive, or prompt corrective action directive by a federal bank regulatory agency to meet and maintain a specific capital level for any capital measure.

The Georgia Department has adopted generally the same definitions for capital adequacy as the Federal Reserve and the FDIC. Under Georgia Department policies, Georgia state banks must maintain not less than 4.5% Tier 1 capital, and generally most institutions will require at least 5.5% Tier 1 capital. Additional capital may be required based on the Georgia Department’s consideration of the quality, type and diversification of assets, current and historical earnings, provisions for liquidity with particular emphasis on asset/liability mismatches and sensitivity to market risks in the asset portfolios, the quality of management, and the existence of other activities that may expose the institution to risk, including the degree of leverage and risk undertaken by any parent company or affiliates. Further, the Georgia Department’s policies generally require that Georgia bank holding companies maintain a Tier 1 capital ratio of 4.0%, although higher ratios are required for holding companies experiencing or anticipating higher growth, and for those companies with significant financial or operational weaknesses, or higher risk profiles.

The Federal Reserve, the FDIC and the Georgia Department have not advised the Company or the Bank of any specific minimum capital ratios applicable to them.

At June 30, 2005, the Company and the Bank were well capitalized for regulatory purposes. The following table provides a comparison of the Company’s and the Bank’s leverage and risk-weighted capital ratios as of June 30, 2005 to the minimum and well-capitalized regulatory standards:


	Company		Bank		Minimum Required		Well Capitalized
Leverage ratio	10.60	%	10.05	%	4.00	%	5.00	%
Risk based capital ratios:
Tier 1 risk based capital	12.36	%	11.85	%	4.00	%*	6.00	%
Total risk-based capital	13.61	%	13.06	%	8.00	%	10.00	%

*	4.5% to 5.5% for Georgia Department purposes

Non-Performing Assets

Nonperforming assets include loans classified as non-accrual or renegotiated and foreclosed real estate. It is the general policy of the Company to stop accruing interest income and place the recognition of interest on a cash basis when any commercial, industrial or commercial real estate loan is 90 days or more past due as to principal or interest and/or the ultimate collection of either is in doubt, unless collection of both principal and interest is assured by way of collateralization, guarantees or other security. Accrual of interest income on consumer loans, including residential real estate loans, is suspended when any payment of principal or interest, or both, is more than 120 days delinquent. When a loan is placed on non-accrual status, any interest previously accrued but not collected is reversed against current income unless the collateral for the loan is sufficient to cover the accrued interest or a guarantor assures payment of interest.

The Company has several procedures in place to assist management in maintaining the overall quality of its loan portfolio. The Company has established written guidelines contained in its Lending Policy for the collection of past due loan accounts. These guidelines explain in detail the Company’s policy on the collection of loans over 30, 60, and 90 days delinquent. Generally, loans over 90 days delinquent are placed in a non-accrual status.

However, if the loan is deemed to be in process of collection, it may be maintained on an accrual basis. The Company’s management conducts continuous training and communicates regularly with loan officers to make them aware of its lending policy and the collection policy contained therein. The Company’s management has also staffed its collection department with properly trained staff to assist lenders with collection efforts and to maintain records and develop reports on delinquent borrowers. Management is not aware of any loans that meet the definition of a troubled debt restructuring as of June 30, 2005. The Company records real estate acquired through foreclosure at the lesser of the outstanding loan balance or the fair value at the time of foreclosure, less estimated costs to sell.

The Company usually disposes of real estate acquired through foreclosure within one year; however, if it is unable to dispose of the foreclosed property, the property’s value is assessed annually and written down to its fair value less costs to sell.

In the first six months of 2005, non-performing assets increased by $1.2 million to $15.6 million. The increase was attributable to loans made by a former loan officer of Main Street Bank and several smaller relationships that are generally well-secured by real estate in accordance with bank policy. The collateral securing these loans is currently being sold or is in the process of foreclosure.

The following table presents information regarding non-performing assets at the dates indicated:


	June 30, 2005			December 31, 2004			June 30, 2004

Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses

At June 30, 2005, loans, net of unearned income, were $1.764 billion, an increase of $0.065 billion or 3.83% over net loans at December 31, 2004 of $1.699 billion. The growth in the loan portfolio was attributable to a consistent focus on quality loan production and strong loan markets in the state. Residential mortgage and commercial real estate loans increased $19.1 million or 1.68% from December 31, 2004 while real estate construction loans increased $45.4 million or 11.30% over the same period. The Company continues to monitor the composition of the loan portfolio to evaluate the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses in light of changes in the economic environment on the loan portfolio.

The Company primarily focuses on the following loan categories: (1) commercial and industrial, (2) real estate construction, (3) residential mortgage, (4) commercial real estate, and (5) consumer loans. The Company’s management has strategically located its branches in high growth markets and has taken advantage of a surge in residential and industrial growth in metropolitan Atlanta.

The allowance for loan losses is a reserve established through charges to earnings in the form of a provision for loan losses. The provision for loan losses is based on management’s evaluation of the size and composition of the loan portfolio, the level of non-performing and past due loans, historical trends of charged-off loans and recoveries, prevailing economic conditions and other factors management deems appropriate. The Company’s management has established an allowance for loan losses which it believes is adequate for the risk of loss inherent in the loan portfolio. Based on a credit evaluation of the loan portfolio, management presents a quarterly review of the allowance for loan losses to the Company’s Board of Directors. The review that management has developed primarily focuses on risk by evaluating the level of loans in certain risk categories. These categories have also been established by management and take the form of loan grades. These loan grades closely mirror regulatory classification guidelines and include pass loan categories 1 through 4 and special mention, substandard, doubtful, and loss categories of 5 through 8, respectively. By grading the loan portfolio in this manner the Company’s management is able to effectively evaluate the portfolio by risk, which management believes is the most effective way to analyze the loan portfolio and thus analyze the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. Management also reviews charge-offs and recoveries on a monthly basis to identify trends.

The Company’s risk management processes include a loan review program to evaluate the credit risk in the loan portfolio and ensure credit grade accuracy. The credit review department is independent of the loan function and reports to the Executive Vice President of Risk Management. Through the loan review process, the Company maintains a classified loan watch list which, along with the delinquency report of loans, serves as a tool to assist management in assessing the overall quality of the loan portfolio and the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. Loans classified as “substandard” are those loans with clear and defined weaknesses such as a highly leveraged position, unfavorable financial ratios, uncertain financial ratios, uncertain repayment sources, deterioration in underlying collateral values, or poor financial condition which may jeopardize recoverability of the debt. Loans classified as “doubtful” are those loans that have characteristics similar to substandard loans but have an increased risk of loss, or at least a portion of the loan may require being charged-off. Loans classified as “loss” are those loans that are in the process of being charged-off.

The allowance for loan losses is established by risk group as follows:

•

Large classified loans, nonaccrual loans and loans considered impaired are evaluated individually with specific reserves allocated based on management’s review.

•

The remainder of the portfolio is allocated a portion of the allowance based on past loss experience and the economic conditions for the particular loan category. Allocation weights are assigned based on the Company’s historical loan loss experience in each loan category, although a higher allocation weight may be used if current conditions indicate that loan losses may exceed historical experience.

When determining the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, management considers changes in the size and character of the loan portfolio, changes in nonperforming and past due loans, historical loan loss experience, the existing risk of individual loans, concentrations of loans to specific borrowers or industries and current economic conditions. Management does not believe these factors have significantly changed over the periods presented. Historically, we believe our estimates of the level of allowance for loan losses required have been appropriate and our expectation is that the primary factors considered in the provision calculation will continue to be consistent with prior trends.

For the six month period ending June 30, 2005, net charge-offs totaled $6.2 million or 0.71% (annualized) of average loans outstanding for the period, net of unearned income, compared to $0.90 million or 0.12 % (annualized) in net charge-offs for the same period in 2004. The provision for loan losses for the six months ended June 30, 2005 was $6.3 million compared to $2.9 million for the same period in 2004. The allowance for loan losses totaled $25.2 million or 1.43% of total loans, net of unearned income at June 30, 2005, compared to $25.2 million or 1.48% of total loans at December 31, 2004. In its loan loss reserve analysis, the Company establishes specific reserves for its large criticized loan relationships. During the first six months of 2005, the Company took charge-offs against several loans that had large specific reserves established in the fourth quarter of 2004. These charge-offs were concentrated in a problem loan portfolio extended by a loan officer who is no longer employed by the Company. The Company’s percentage of loans in a criticized status has otherwise been stable and is consistent with prior years. Economic conditions in the Company’s market area continue to be favorable. Based on these factors and the elimination of large specific reserves through loan charge-offs, the Company’s allowance for loan losses as a percentage of loans declined.

The following table presents an analysis of the allowance for loan losses for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2005 and 2004:

Interest Rate Sensitivity and Liquidity

Asset Liability Management

The Company’s primary market risk exposures are credit (as discussed previously), interest rate risk and liquidity risk. The Company operates under an Asset Liability and Risk Management policy created by the Asset and Liability Committee (“ALCO”) and approved by the Board of Directors. The policy outlines limits on interest rate risk in terms of changes in net interest income and changes in the economic values of assets and liabilities over certain changes in interest rate environments. These measurements are made through a simulation model which projects the impact of changes in interest rates on assets and liabilities. The policy also outlines responsibility for monitoring interest rate risk, and the process for the approval, implementation and monitoring of interest rate risk strategies to achieve the Company’s interest rate risk objectives.

The ALCO is comprised of senior officers. The ALCO makes all tactical and strategic decisions with respect to the sources and uses of funds that may affect net interest income. The ALCO’s decisions are based upon policies established by the Board of Directors, which are designed to meet three goals: manage interest rate risk, improve net interest income and maintain adequate liquidity.

The ALCO has developed a program of action which includes, among other things, the following: (i) selling substantially all conforming, long-term, fixed rate mortgage originations, (ii) originating and retaining for the portfolio shorter term, higher yielding loan products which meet the Company’s underwriting criteria; and (iii) actively managing the Company’s interest rate risk exposure.

Interest Rate Risk

The normal course of business activity exposes the Company to interest rate risk. Interest rate risk is managed within an overall asset and liability framework for the Company. The principal objectives of asset and liability management are to guide the sensitivity of net interest income to potential changes in interest rates and enhance profitability in ways that promise sufficient reward for recognized and controlled risk. Funding positions are kept within predetermined limits designed to ensure that risk-taking is not excessive and that liquidity is properly managed. The Company employs sensitivity analysis in the form of a net interest income simulation to help characterize the potential volatility of net interest income to changes in interest rates. In addition, fluctuations in interest rates usually result in changes in the fair market value of the Company’s financial instruments and cash flows. The Company’s interest rate risk position is managed by ALCO.

The Company uses a simulation modeling process to measure interest rate risk and evaluate potential strategies. The Company’s net interest income simulation includes all financial assets and liabilities. This simulation measures both the mismatch risk and basis risk in the Company’s assets and liabilities. The simulation also captures the option characteristics of products, such as caps and floors on floating rate loans, the right to pre-pay mortgage loans without penalty and the ability of customers to withdraw deposits on demand. These options are modeled through the use of primarily historical customer behavior and statistical analysis. Other interest rate-related risks such as prepayment, basis and option risk are also considered. Simulation results quantify interest rate risk under various interest rate scenarios. Management then develops and implements appropriate strategies. The Board of Directors regularly review the overall rate risk position and asset and liability management strategies.

In fiscal 2005, the Company will continue to face mismatch risk and basis risk and may be confronted with several risk scenarios. If interest rates rise, net interest income may actually increase if deposit rates lag increases in market rates. The Company could, however, experience significant pressure on net interest income if there is a substantial increase in deposit rates relative to market rates. A declining interest rate environment might result in a decrease in loan rates, while deposit rates remain relatively stable, which could also create significant risk to net interest income. ALCO’s subcommittee, the pricing committee, meets weekly to establish interest rates on loans and deposits.

The Company uses three standard scenarios – rates unchanged, rising rates, and declining rates – in analyzing interest rate sensitivity. The rising and declining rate scenarios cover a 100 basis point upward and downward rate shock. The following table illustrates the expected effect a given interest rate shift would have on the fair market value of the Balance Sheet and the annualized projected net interest income of the Company as of June 30, 2005:


Change in Interest Rates	Increase /(Decrease) in FMV of Balance Sheet	Increase /(Decrease) in Net Interest Income
+ 100 basis points	3.90	6.84
- 100 basis points	-5.20	-6.90

These simulated computations should not be relied upon as indicative of actual future results. Further, the computations do not contemplate certain actions that management may undertake in response to future changes in interest rates.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (“SFAS 133”) and Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 149, Amendment of Statement 133 on Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (“SFAS 149”), as amended and interpreted, establish accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities. As required by SFAS 133, the Company records all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. Fair value is estimated based on published bid prices or bid quotations for interest rate swaps and floors received from securities dealers. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative and the resulting designation. Derivatives used to hedge the exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset, liability, or firm commitment attributable to a particular risk, such as interest rate risk, are considered fair value hedges. Derivatives used to hedge the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow hedges.

For derivatives designated as fair value hedges, changes in the fair value of the derivative and the hedged item related to the hedged risk are recognized in earnings. For derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is initially reported in other comprehensive income (outside of earnings) and subsequently reclassified to earnings when the hedged transaction affects earnings, and the ineffective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognized directly in earnings. The Company assesses the effectiveness of each hedging relationship by comparing the changes in fair value or cash flows of the derivative hedging instrument with the changes in fair value or cash flows of the designated hedged item or transaction. For derivatives not designated as hedges, changes in fair value are recognized in earnings.

Interest rate swaps are currently utilized by the Company to hedge the interest rate risk associated with pools of loans that bear interest based upon the prime rate. The interest rate swaps synthetically convert the floating interest rate payments received on pools of assets bearing interest based upon the prime rates to fixed interest receipts. The Company assesses hedge effectiveness and measures hedge ineffectiveness on a quarterly basis for each hedging relationship. The Company performs its effectiveness testing by comparing the present value of the cumulative change in the variable interest payments on each swap to the present value of the cumulative change in the overall variable receipts on the underlying loans since the inception of the hedge. Hedge ineffectiveness is recognized to the extent that the cumulative change on the swap exceeds the cumulative change on the hedged variable interest receipts on the loans. If the ratio of the cumulative changes in the variable interest payments on a swap to the cumulative changes in the variable receipts on the underlying loans is outside of the range of 80% to 125%, the Company considers the hedging relationship to no longer be highly effective and would dedesignate the interest rate swap from its hedging relationship. Subsequent changes in the value of the derivative would be remeasured directly through earnings.

The Company’s objective in using derivatives is to add stability to interest income and/or interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements or other identified risks. To accomplish this objective, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps as part of its cash flow hedging strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of fixed-rate amounts in exchange for variable-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying principal amount.

Market risk is the adverse effect that a change in interest rates or the implied volatility of interest rates have on the value of a financial instrument. The Company manages the market risk associated with interest rate contracts by establishing and monitoring limits as to the types and degree of risk that may be undertaken.

The Company’s derivatives activities are monitored by its ALCO as part of its risk-management oversight of the Company’s treasury functions. The Company’s ALCO is responsible for approving various hedging strategies that are developed through its analysis of data from financial simulation models and other internal and industry sources. The resulting hedging strategies are then incorporated into the Company’s overall interest rate risk management and trading strategies.

The following chart illustrates the Bank’s derivative positions as of June 30, 2005. Market values have been determined by published bid prices or bid quotations for interest rate swaps received from securities dealers. Amounts are in thousands.

Liquidity

Liquidity involves the Company’s ability to raise funds to support asset growth or reduce assets to meet deposit withdrawals and other payment obligations, to maintain reserve requirements and otherwise to operate on an ongoing basis. During the past three years, the Company’s liquidity needs have primarily been met by growth in deposits, advances from Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”), purchases of federal funds, and capital from retained earnings and acquisitions. The FHLB allows member banks to borrow against their eligible collateral to satisfy their liquidity requirements. As of June 30, 2005, the Company had $18.2 million available on its FHLB line based on current eligible collateral. Federal funds purchased and other short-term borrowings are additional sources of liquidity and, basically, represent the Company’s incremental borrowing capacity. These sources of liquidity are short-term in nature and are used as necessary to fund asset growth and meet short-term liquidity needs. As of June 30, 2005, the Company had $39.6 million in federal funds purchased and $87.5 million in FHLB overnight borrowings. The Company’s cash and federal funds sold and cash flows from amortizing investment and loan portfolios have generally created an adequate liquidity position. Executive management reviews liquidity monthly. This review is from a regulatory as well as static and a forecasted standpoint.

Market and public confidence in the financial strength of the Company and financial institutions in general will determine the Company’s access to supplementary sources of liquidity. The Company’s capital levels and asset quality determine levels at which the Company can access supplementary funding sources.

The Company relies primarily on customer deposits, securities sold under repurchase agreements and shareholders’ equity to fund interest-earning assets. The FHLB is also a major source of liquidity for the Bank. The FHLB allows member banks to borrow against their eligible collateral to satisfy their liquidity requirements.

Management believes the Company has sufficient liquidity to meet all reasonable borrower, depositor, and creditor needs in the present economic environment. The Company has not received any recommendations from regulatory authorities that would materially affect liquidity, capital resources or operations.

Maintaining a steady funding base is achieved by diversifying funding sources, competitively pricing deposit products, and extending the contractual maturity of liabilities. This reduces the Company’s exposure to roll over risk on deposits and limits reliance on volatile short-term purchased funds.

Short-term funding needs arise from funding of loan commitments and requests for new loans and from declines in deposits or other funding sources. The Company’s strategy is to fund assets to the maximum extent possible with core deposits that provide a sizable source of relatively stable and low-cost funds. Core deposits include all deposits, except time deposits of $100,000 and over.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Additional information required by Item 305 of Regulation S-K is set forth under Item 2 of this report.

ITEM 4.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the quarterly period covered by this Form 10-Q and have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures continue to be ineffective as of that date in ensuring that information required to be disclosed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q was recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time period required by the SEC’s rules and forms.

During the first six months of 2005 the Company has made the following changes to internal controls over financial reporting to address the previously disclosed material weakness related to staffing levels and expertise:

•

Hired David W. Brooks, II to serve as Chief Financial Officer

•

Provided internal training for income taxes and hired an independent third party to provide additional tax expertise for the Company

•

Provided internal training and guidance for reconciliations and utilized an independent third party to provide additional expertise for improving the reconciliation process

•

Established additional procedures and controls to ensure that the integrity of the financial review process was maintained while staffing levels and expertise were being remediated

•

Utilized a third party vendor for asset/liability modeling

•

Increased staff in our SBA lending division to allow for additional segregation of duties and responsibilities

There were no other changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that may have materially affected, or that are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
