(7) STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
In accordance with the Company's adoption of SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation" ("SFAS 123"), in the first quarter of 2003, the
cost related to stock-based associate compensation included in net income has
been accounted for under the fair value method in all reported periods.
On January 1, 2006, the Company adopted SFAS 123R. The Company continues to
include the cost of its share-based compensation plans in net income under
the fair value method.
As of June 30, 2006, the Company had three stock-based compensation plans,
consisting of the 2005 Associate Incentive Plan ("AIP"), the 2005 Associate
Stock Purchase Plan ("ASPP"), and the 2005 Director Stock Purchase Plan
("DSPP"). For 2006, the Company also has a stock option arrangement with a
key executive officer. Total compensation expense associated with these
plans for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, was approximately
$889,000 and $538,000, respectively.
2005 AIP. The Company's 2005 AIP allows the Company's Board of Directors to
award key associates various forms of equity-based incentive compensation.
Under the 2005 AIP, the Company has adopted the Stock-Based Incentive Plan
(the "Incentive Plan"), effective January 1, 2006, which is a performance-
based equity bonus plan for selected members of management, including all
executive officers. Under the Incentive Plan, all participants are eligible
to earn an equity award, consisting of performance shares, in each year of
the five-year period ending December 31, 2010. Annual awards are tied to the
annual earnings progression necessary to achieve the Project 2010 goal. The
grant-date fair value of an annual compensation award is $1.5 million.
A total of 43,437 shares are eligible for issuance annually.
10
At the end of each calendar year, the Compensation Committee will confirm
whether the performance goals have been met prior to the payout of any
awards. Any performance shares earned under the Incentive Plan will be
issued in the calendar quarter following the calendar year in which the
shares were earned.
In accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123R, the Company recognized
expense of approximately $745,000 for the first six months of 2006 related to
the Incentive Plan. Under a substantially similar predecessor plan, the
Company recognized expense of $381,000 for the first six months of 2005.
A total of 875,000 shares of common stock have been reserved for issuance
under the 2005 AIP. To date, the Company has issued 28,093 shares of common
stock.
2005 DSPP. The Company's DSPP allows the directors to purchase the Company's
common stock at a price equal to 90% of the closing price on the date of
purchase. Stock purchases under the DSPP are limited to the amount of the
directors' annual retainer and meeting fees. The DSPP has 93,750 shares
reserved for issuance. A total of 13,591 shares have been issued since the
inception of the DSPP. For the first six months of 2006, the Company issued
7,002 shares under the DSPP and recognized $24,000 in expense related to this
plan. For the first six months of 2005, the Company issued 5,123 shares and
recognized $18,000 in expense related to the DSPP.
2005 ASPP. Under the Company's ASPP, substantially all associates may
purchase the Company's common stock through payroll deductions at a price
equal to 90% of the lower of the fair market value at the beginning or end of
each six-month offering period. Stock purchases under the ASPP are limited
to 10% of an associate's eligible compensation, up to a maximum of $25,000
(fair market value on each enrollment date) in any plan year. Shares are
issued at the beginning of the quarter following each six-month offering
period. The ASPP has 593,750 shares of common stock reserved for issuance.
A total of 26,938 shares have been issued since inception of the ASPP. For
the first six months of 2006, the Company issued 9,343 shares under the ASPP
and recognized $45,000 in expense related to this plan. For the first six
months of 2005, the Company issued 8,928 shares and recognized $42,000 in
expense related to the ASPP.
Based on the Black-Scholes option pricing model, the weighted average
estimated fair value of the purchase rights granted under the ASPP Plan was
$6.22 for the first six months of 2006. For the first six months of 2005,
the weighted average fair value of the purchase rights granted was $5.64.
In calculating compensation, the fair value of each stock purchase right was
estimated on the date of grant using the following weighted average
assumptions:

Executive Stock Option Agreement. In 2006, the Company's Board of Directors
approved a stock option agreement for a key executive officer (William G.
Smith, Jr. - Chairman, President and CEO, CCBG). Similar stock option
agreements were approved in 2003-2005. These agreements grant a non-
qualified stock option award upon achieving certain annual earnings per share
conditions set by the Board, subject to certain vesting requirements. The
options granted under the agreements have a term of ten years and vest at a
rate of one-third on each of the first, second, and third anniversaries of
the date of grant. Under the 2004 and 2003 agreements, 37,246 and 23,138
options, respectively, were issued, none of which have been exercised. The
fair value of a 2004 option was $13.42, and the fair value of a 2003 option
was $11.64. The exercise prices for the 2004 and 2003 options are $32.69 and
$32.96, respectively. Under the 2005 agreement, the earnings per share
conditions were not met; therefore, no economic value was earned by the
executive. In accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123R and SFAS 123, the
Company recognized expense of approximately $95,000 and $97,000 for the first
six months of 2006 and 2005, respectively, related to the aforementioned
agreements.

(9) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Lending Commitments. The Company is a party to financial instruments with
off-balance sheet risks in the normal course of business to meet the
financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments consist of
commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit.
The Company's maximum exposure to credit loss under standby letters of credit
and commitments to extend credit is represented by the contractual amount of
those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in establishing
commitments and issuing letters of credit as it does for on-balance sheet
instruments. As of June 30, 2006, the amounts associated with the Company's
off-balance sheet obligations were as follows:
(Dollars in Millions) Amount
- ----------------------------------------------
Commitments to Extend Credit(1) $454.6
Standby Letters of Credit $ 19.1
(1) Commitments include unfunded loans, revolving lines of credit, and other
unused commitments.
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer so 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.
Contingencies. The Company is a party to lawsuits and claims arising out of
the normal course of business. In management's opinion, there are no known
pending claims or litigation, the outcome of which would, individually or in
the aggregate, have a material effect on the consolidated results of
operations, financial position, or cash flows of the Company.
(10) COMPREHENSIVE INCOME
SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," requires that certain
transactions and other economic events that bypass the income statement be
displayed as other comprehensive income (loss). Comprehensive income totaled
$7.7 million and $15.1 million, respectively, for the three and six months
ended June 30, 2006, and $8.3 million and $13.9 million, respectively, for
the comparable periods in 2005. The Company's comprehensive income consists
of net income and changes in unrealized gains (losses) on securities
available-for-sale, net of income taxes. Changes in unrealized gains
(losses), net of taxes, on securities totaled $(576,000) and $(668,000),
respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, and $452,000
and $(345,000), respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30,
2005. Reclassification adjustments consist only of realized gains and losses
on sales of investment securities and were not material for the six months
ended June 30, 2006 and 2005.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Management's discussion and analysis ("MD&A") provides supplemental
information, which sets forth the major factors that have affected our
financial condition and results of operations and should be read in
conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes.
The MD&A is divided into subsections entitled "Business Overview," "Financial
Overview," "Results of Operations," "Financial Condition," "Liquidity and
Capital Resources," "Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements," and "Accounting
Policies." Information therein should facilitate a better understanding of
the major factors and trends that affect our earnings performance and
financial condition, and how our performance during 2006 compares with prior
years. Throughout this section, Capital City Bank Group, Inc., and its
subsidiary, collectively, are referred to as "CCBG," "Company," "we," "us,"
or "our."
The period-to-date averages used in this report are based on daily balances
for each respective period. In certain circumstances, comparing average
balances for the comparable quarters of consecutive years may be more
meaningful than simply analyzing year-to-date averages. Therefore, where
appropriate, quarterly averages have been presented for analysis and have
been noted as such. See Table I for average balances and interest rates
presented on a quarterly basis.
In this MD&A, we present an operating efficiency ratio and an operating net
noninterest expense as a percent of average assets, both of which are not
calculated based on accounting principles generally accepted in the United
State ("GAAP"), but that we believe provide important information
regarding our results of operations. Our calculation of the operating
efficiency ratio is computed by dividing non-interest expense less intangible
amortization and one-time merger expenses, by the sum of tax equivalent net
interest income and noninterest income. We calculate our operating net
noninterest expense as a percent of average assets by subtracting noninterest
expense excluding intangible amortization and one-time merger expenses from
noninterest income. We believe that excluding intangible amortization and
one-time merger expenses in our calculations better reflect our periodic
expenses and is more reflective of normalized operations.
Although we believe the above-mentioned non-GAAP financial measures enhance
investors' understanding of our business and performance, these non-GAAP
financial measures should not be considered an alternative to GAAP.
We provide reconciliations for all non-GAAP financial measures below:

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the condensed
consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in this
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
CAUTION CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including this MD&A section, contains
"forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements include,
among others, statements about our beliefs, plans, objectives, goals,
expectations, estimates and intentions that are subject to significant risks
and uncertainties and are subject to change based on various factors, many of
which are beyond our control. The words "may," "could," "should," "would,"
"believe," "anticipate," "estimate," "expect," "intend," "plan," "target,"
"goal," and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking
statements.

uncertainties. Our actual future results may differ materially from those
set forth in our forward-looking statements. Please see the Introductory
Note and Item 1A. Risk Factors of our Annual Report on Form 10-K, which
should be read in conjunction with this Quarterly Report (as updated by
Item 1A, "Risk Factors," in Part II of this Quarterly Report), and in our
other filings made from time to time with the SEC after the date of this
report. Our ability to achieve our financial objectives could be adversely
affected by the factors discussed in detail in Item 1A, "Risk Factors," in
our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as well as:
* our ability to integrate the business and operations of companies and
banks that we have acquired, and those we may acquire in the future;
* strength of the United States economy in general and the strength of
the local economies in which we conduct operations;
* effects of harsh weather conditions, including hurricanes;
* inflation, interest rate, market and monetary fluctuations;
* effect of changes in the stock market and other capital markets;
* legislative or regulatory changes;
* willingness of customers to accept third-party products and services
for our products and services and vice versa;
* changes in the securities and real estate markets;
* increased competition and its effect on pricing;
* technological changes;
* changes in monetary and fiscal policies of the U.S. government;
* changes in consumer spending and savings habits;
* growth and profitability of our noninterest income;
* changes in accounting principles, policies, practices or guidelines;
* other risks described from time to time in filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission; and
* our ability to manage the risks involved in the foregoing.
16
However, other factors besides those listed above, in our Quarterly Report or
in our Annual Report also could adversely affect our results, and you should
not consider any such list of factors to be a complete set of all potential
risks or uncertainties. Any forward-looking statements made by us or on our
behalf speak only as of the date they are made. We do not undertake to
update any forward-looking statement, except as required by applicable law.
BUSINESS OVERVIEW
We are a financial holding company headquartered in Tallahassee, Florida and
are the parent of our wholly-owned subsidiary, Capital City Bank (the "Bank"
or "CCB"). The Bank offers a broad array of products and services through a
total of 69 full-service offices located in Florida, Georgia, and Alabama.
The Bank also has mortgage lending offices in three additional Florida
communities, and one Georgia community. The Bank offers commercial and
retail banking services, as well as trust and asset management, merchant
services, brokerage and data processing services.
Our profitability, like most financial institutions, is dependent to a large
extent upon net interest income, which is the difference between the interest
received on earning assets, such as loans and securities, and the interest
paid on interest-bearing liabilities, principally deposits and borrowings.
Results of operations are also affected by the provision for loan losses,
operating expenses such as salaries and employee benefits, occupancy and
other operating expenses including income taxes, and non-interest income such
as service charges on deposit accounts, asset management and trust fees,
mortgage banking revenues, merchant service fees, brokerage and data
processing revenues.
Our philosophy is to grow and prosper, building long-term relationships based
on quality service, high ethical standards, and safe and sound banking
practices. We are a super-community bank in the relationship banking
business with a locally oriented, community-based focus, which is augmented
by experienced, centralized support in select specialized areas. Our local
market orientation is reflected in our network of banking office locations,
experienced community executives, and community advisory boards which support
our focus on responding to local banking needs. We strive to offer a broad
array of sophisticated products and to provide quality service by empowering
associates to make decisions in their local markets.
Pursuant to our long-term strategic initiative, "Project 2010", we have
continued our expansion, emphasizing a combination of growth in existing
markets and acquisitions. Acquisitions will continue to be focused on a
three state area including Florida, Georgia, and Alabama with a particular
focus on financial institutions, which are $100 million to $400 million in
asset size and generally located on the outskirts of major metropolitan
areas. We continue to evaluate de novo expansion opportunities in attractive
new markets in the event that acquisition opportunities are not feasible.
Other expansion opportunities that will be evaluated include asset
management, insurance, and mortgage banking.
Recent Acquisition. On May 20, 2005, we completed our merger with First
Alachua Banking Corporation ("FABC"), headquartered in Alachua, Florida. We
issued approximately 906,000 shares of common stock and paid approximately
$29.0 million in cash for a total purchase price of $58.0 million. FABC's
wholly-owned subsidiary, First National Bank of Alachua, had $228.3 million
in assets at closing with seven offices in Alachua County and an eighth
office in Hastings, Florida, which is in St. Johns County.

FINANCIAL OVERVIEW
A summary overview of our financial performance for 2006 versus 2005 is
provided below.
2006 Financial Performance Highlights -
* Earnings of $8.3 million, up 5.7% and $15.7 million, up 10.5% for the
three and six months ended June 30, 2006 as compared to the same
periods in 2005.
* Diluted earnings per share of $.44 for the second quarter of 2006
consistent with the same period in 2005. Earnings per diluted share
for the six months ended June 30, 2006 of $.84 represents a 5.0%
increase over the same period in 2005.
* Growth in earnings was attributable to improvement in operating
revenues of 12.8% and 15.5% for the three and six month periods,
respectively, driven primarily by higher net interest income and
noninterest income.
* Taxable equivalent net interest income grew 11.7% and 15.0% for the
three and six month periods, respectively, due to earning asset growth
and an improved net interest margin.
* Net interest margin percentage improved 31 basis points and 32 basis
points for the three and six month periods, respectively, driven by
favorable repricing spread and higher yield on new loan production.
* Noninterest income grew 16.3% and 17.1% for the three and six month
periods, respectively, due primarily to higher deposit service charge
fees and card processing fees.
* Continued strong credit quality as reflected by a nonperforming asset
ratio of .28% and an annualized net charge-off ratio of .03% for the
second quarter of 2006 compared to .08% for the same period in 2005.
At quarter-end the allowance for loan losses was .84% of outstanding
loans and provided coverage of 326% of nonperforming loans compared to
.85% and 289%, respectively, for the same period in 2005.
* Credit quality remains strong and a key driver in bank performance and
growth. Nonperforming assets totaled $5.8 million, or .28% of total
loans and other real estate at quarter-end compared to .30% and .28%,
respectively, for the second quarter of 2005 and first quarter of 2006.
* Average deposits grew 6.0% and 8.1% for the three and six month
periods, respectively, due to our May 2005 acquisition and strong
growth in balances related to "Absolutely Free" deposit products, and
our Cash Power money market product.
* We remain well-capitalized with a risk based capital ratio of 13.92%.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net Income
Earnings for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 were $8.3 million,
or $.44 per diluted share, and $15.7 million, or $.84 per diluted share,
respectively. This compared to $7.9 million, or $.44 per diluted share and
$14.2 million, or $.80 per diluted share in 2005. Results include the impact
of the acquisition of FABC in May 2005.
Growth in earnings for the second quarter of 2006 was primarily attributable
to an increase in operating revenue (defined as net interest income plus
noninterest income) of $5.0 million, or 12.8%, and a decrease in our loan
loss provision of $267,000, or 68.8%, partially offset by an increase in
noninterest expense of $4.5 million, or 16.8%, and income taxes of $373,000,
or 8.7%. The increase in operating revenue
18
reflects an 11.3% increase in net interest income and a 16.3% increase in
noninterest income.
Growth in earnings for the six month period of $1.5 million, or 10.5% was
primarily attributable to an increase in operating revenue (defined as net
interest income plus noninterest income) of $11.6 million, or 15.5%,
partially offset by an increase in noninterest expense of $9.3 million, or
17.9%, and income taxes of $808,000, or 10.3%. The increase in operating
revenue reflects an 14.8% increase in net interest income and a 17.1%
increase in noninterest income.

Net Interest Income
Net interest income represents the Company's single largest source of
earnings and is equal to interest income and fees generated by earning
assets, less interest expense paid on interest bearing liabilities. Second
quarter of 2006 taxable-equivalent net interest income increased $3.2
million, or 11.7%, over the comparable quarter in 2005. During the first
half of 2006, taxable-equivalent net interest income increased $7.8 million,
or 15.0%, respectively, over the first half of 2005. This increase was
caused by the effect of our acquisition of FABC, higher earning asset yields
and a slight improvement in earning asset mix, partially offset by higher
funding costs and a change in deposit mix. The increase in yields and funding
costs are a result of the higher interest rate environment. The combination
of these factors resulted in a 31 basis point improvement in the net interest
margin as compared to the second quarter of 2005. Table I provides a
comparative analysis of our average balances and interest rates.
For the three month period ended June 30, 2006, taxable-equivalent interest
income increased $7.6 million or 22.2%, over the comparable period in 2005.
During the first half of 2006, taxable-equivalent interest income improved
$16.6 million, or 25.5%, respectively, over the comparable period in 2005.
The increase was attributable to a change in earning asset mix and higher
yields on earning assets. Earning asset yields improved 103 basis points to
7.35% in the second quarter of 2006 from 6.32% in the second quarter of 2005
and 7.08% from the prior quarter, primarily attributable to the higher
interest rate environment. We anticipate that our income on earning assets
will expand during the third quarter due to the higher rate environment.
19
Interest expense for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2006
increased $4.4 million, or 64.7% and $8.8 million, or 68.9%, respectively,
from the comparable prior year periods. The unfavorable variance is
attributable to higher rates paid on all interest bearing liabilities and an
increase in long-term debt costs resulting from debt secured to fund the FABC
acquisition. The average rate paid on interest bearing liabilities of 2.58%
in the second quarter of 2006 represents an increase of 89 and 19 basis
points, respectively, over the second quarter of 2005 and first quarter of
2006. We anticipate that our interest expense will continue to increase in
the third quarter as a result of the higher rate environment and increased
competition for deposits.
Our interest rate spread (defined as the average fully taxable-equivalent
yield on earning assets less the average rate paid on interest bearing
liabilities) increased from 4.56% in the first half of 2005 to 4.72% in the
comparable period of 2006, reflecting the higher yield on earning assets.
Our net yield on earning assets (defined as fully taxable-equivalent net
interest income divided by average earning assets) was 5.38% and 5.31%,
respectively, for the three and six month periods of 2006, versus 5.07% and
4.99%, respectively, for the comparable periods in 2005. The increase in
margin reflects higher asset yields driven by rising interest rates. Net
interest income is expected to expand slightly during the third quarter,
which is attributable to anticipated higher net yield on earning assets and
other factors noted above.
Provision for Loan Losses
The provision for loan losses was $121,000 and $788,000, respectively, for
the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2006, compared to $388,000 and
$798,000 for the same periods in 2005. The decrease in the provision for
both of the aforementioned periods was due to a lower level of required
reserves reflective of improved credit quality.
Net charge-offs totaled $136,000, or .03% of average loans for the second
quarter of 2006 compared to $362,000, or .08% for the second quarter of 2005.
For the six-month period ended June 30, 2006, net charge-offs totaled
$934,000, or .09% of average loans compared to $769,000, or .08% of average
loans for the comparable period in 2005. At quarter-end the allowance for
loan losses was .84% of outstanding loans and provided coverage of 326% of
nonperforming loans.
Charge-off activity for the respective periods is set forth below:

Noninterest Income
Noninterest income increased $2.0 million, or 16.3%, and $3.9 million, or
17.1%, respectively, over the comparable three and six month periods in 2005,
primarily due to higher deposit service charge fees, retail brokerage fees,
and card processing fees. Noninterest income represented 31.7% and 31.3% of
operating revenue for the three and six month periods of 2006 compared to
30.7% and 30.9% for the same periods in 2005. The increase is due to the
aforementioned strong growth in noninterest income.

Various significant components of noninterest income are discussed in more
detail below.
Service Charges on Deposit Accounts. Deposit service charge fees increased
$1.1 million, or 21.1%, and $2.4 million, or 25.5%, respectively, over the
comparable three and six month periods in 2005. The increase reflects higher
overdraft and nonsufficient funds fees due primarily to growth in deposit
accounts attributable to an increase in free checking accounts and improved
fee collection efforts.
21
Asset Management Fees. Income from asset management activities increased
$142,000, or 14.0%, and $80,000, or 3.8%, respectively, over the comparable
three and six month periods in 2005. The improvement for both periods is
primarily due to growth in new business within existing and new markets. At
June 30, 2006, assets under management totaled $685.0 million, representing
an increase of $34.0 million, or 5.2% from the comparable period in 2005.
Mortgage Banking Revenues. Mortgage banking revenues decreased $133,000, or
12.8%, and $175,000, or 9.7%, respectively, from the comparable three and six
month periods in 2005. The decrease reflects the local and national trend of
a slower housing market and a decreased level of refinance activity.
Card Fees. Card processing fees (including merchant services fees,
interchange fees, and ATM/debit card fees) increased $606,000, or 23.3%, and
$1.0 million, or 19.5%, respectively, over the comparable three and six
periods in 2005. The increase in merchant service fees is primarily due to
higher transaction volume reflective of growth in merchant accounts. Higher
interchange fees and ATM/debit card fees reflect an increase in deposit
accounts.
Other. Other income increased $286,000, or 12.1%, and $638,000, or 13.9%,
respectively, over the comparable three and six month periods in 2005 due
primarily to increases in retail brokerage fees, asset based lending fees,
data processing fees, and a one-time gain on the sale of a real estate parcel
in the amount of $109,000.
Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expense increased $4.5 million, or 16.8%, and $9.3 million, or
17.9%, respectively, over the comparable three and six month periods in 2005.
The table below reflects the major components of noninterest expense.

Various significant components of noninterest expense are discussed in more
detail below.
Compensation. Salaries and associate benefits expense increased $2.0
million, or 15.3%, and $4.9 million, or 19.0% over the comparable three and
six month periods in 2005. For the first half of the year, we experienced
increases in associate salaries of $3.3 million, payroll tax expense of
$196,000, associate insurance expense of $365,000, pension plan expense of
$382,000, and stock-based compensation of $507,000. The increase in
associate salaries and payroll tax expense reflects the addition of FABC
associates, annual merit/market based raises for associates, and lower
realized loan cost. Realized loan cost reflects the impact of SFAS No. 91
"Accounting for Nonrefundable Fees and Costs Associated with Acquiring
Loans", which requires deferral and amortization of loan costs that are
accounted for as a credit offset to salary expense. The decrease in loan
production for the first half of the year reduced the amount of this offset
as compared to the first half of 2005. The increase in expense for insurance
and pension benefits is reflective of an increase in eligible participants.
The higher pension expense is also due to a lower discount rate used for the
2006 expense projection. Higher stock based compensation reflects an
increase in plan participants and higher target awards due to the adoption of
our new Stock-Based Incentive Plan.
Occupancy. Occupancy expense (including premises and equipment) increased
$792,000, or 18.7%, and $1.5 million, or 17.7%, respectively over the
comparable three and six month periods in 2005. For the first half of the
year, we experienced increases in depreciation of $770,000, maintenance and
repairs (building and FF&E) of $190,000, utilities of $174,000, maintenance
agreements (FF&E) of $298,000, and building insurance of $66,000 from the
comparable period in 2005, all of which reflect the increase in the number of
banking offices from our May 2005 acquisition and new banking office openings
during the later part of 2005.
Other. Other noninterest expense increased $1.7 million, or 18.1%, and $2.9
million, or 16.5%, respectively over the three and six month periods in 2005.
For the first half of the year, the increase was primarily attributable to
higher expense for the following categories: 1) legal fees - $150,000, 2)
advertising - $304,000, 3) travel and entertainment - $267,000, 4) printing
and supplies - $160,000, 5) telephone expense - $132,000, 6) intangible
amortization - $574,000, 7) interchange fees - $350,000, and 8) miscellaneous
- - $859,000. Legal expenses have increased due to a general increase in legal
services tied to corporate activities. The increase in advertising expense
is due to an increase in promotional expenses associated with the addition of
new banking offices in late 2005 and an expansion in our line of free
checking products. The higher expense for travel and entertainment is linked
primarily to associate related events that took place during the first half
of the year. The increase in printing and supplies expense was
driven by an increase in the number of banking offices requiring printed
brochures for bank products and services, and supplies. Telephone expense
increased also due to an increase in banking offices. The increase in
intangible amortization reflects new core deposit amortization from the FABC
acquisition. The increase in interchange fees is due to increased merchant
card transaction volume. Miscellaneous expense grew due to increases in
other losses, ATM/debit card production, associate hiring expense, and
seminars/education expense.
Operating net noninterest expense (noninterest income minus noninterest
expense, excluding intangible amortization and one-time merger expenses) as a
percent of average assets was 2.40% for the first half of 2006 compared to
2.20% in 2005. Our operating efficiency ratio (noninterest expense,
excluding intangible amortization and one-time merger expenses, expressed as
a percent of the sum of taxable-equivalent net interest income plus
noninterest income) was 66.70% for the first half of 2006 compared to 65.23%
for the same period in 2005 due to expense growth as discussed above.
Income Taxes
Relative to the prior year periods, the provision for income taxes increased
$373,000, or 8.7%, during the second quarter and $808,000, or 10.3%, during
the first six months
23
of 2006, reflecting higher taxable income. Our effective tax rate for the
first half of 2006 was 35.55% compared to 35.59% for the same period in 2005.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
Asset and liability balances include the integration of FABC in May 2005.
Average assets decreased $4.5 million, or .17%, to $2.603 billion for the
quarter-ended June 30, 2006 from $2.608 billion in the fourth quarter of
2005. Average earning assets of $2.279 billion decreased $193,000, or .01%,
from the fourth quarter of 2005. A decrease in average loans of $22.1
million was partially offset by a $5.4 million increase in investment
securities and a $16.5 million increase in average short term investments.
These variances are discussed in more detail below.
Funds Sold
We ended the second quarter with approximately $35.7 million in average net
overnight funds sold, compared to $5.7 million net overnight funds purchased
in the fourth quarter of 2005. The improvement reflects the increase in
deposits that is discussed in further detail below (Deposits). Growth in
deposits during the first part of the year has reduced the bank's position in
overnight funds purchased.
Investment Securities
Our investment portfolio is a significant component of our operations and, as
such, it functions as a key element of liquidity and asset/liability
management. As of June 30, 2006, the average investment portfolio increased
$5.4 million, or 2.9%, from the fourth quarter of 2005. We will continue to
evaluate the need to purchase securities for the investment portfolio
throughout 2006, taking into consideration liquidity needed to fund loan
growth and to meet pledging requirements.
Securities classified as available-for-sale are recorded at fair value and
unrealized gains and losses associated with these securities are recorded,
net of tax, as a separate component of shareowners' equity. At June 30, 2006
and December 31, 2005, shareowners' equity included a net unrealized loss of
$1.9 million and $1.2 million, respectively.
Loans
Average loans for the second quarter decreased $22.1 million, or 1.07%, from
the fourth quarter, due to higher than expected loan activity (principal pay-
downs and pay-offs). We expect the loan pipeline to remain stable and loans
outstanding to remain flat for the second half of the year.
Our nonperforming loans were $5.3 million at June 30, 2006 and December 31,
2005. As a percent of nonperforming loans, the allowance for loan losses
represented 326% at June 30, 2006 and 331% at December 31, 2005.
Nonperforming loans include nonaccruing and restructured loans. Other real
estate, which includes property acquired either through foreclosure or by
receiving a deed in lieu of foreclosure, was $0.5 million at June 30, 2006
versus $0.3 million at December 31, 2005. The ratio of nonperforming assets
as a percent of loans plus other real estate was .28% at June 30, 2006,
compared to .27% at December 31, 2005.
We maintain an allowance for loan losses at a level sufficient to provide for
the estimated credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio as of the balance
sheet date. Credit losses arise from borrowers' inability or unwillingness
to repay, and from other risks inherent in the lending process, including
collateral risk, operations risk, concentration risk and economic risk. All
related risks of lending are considered when assessing the adequacy of the
loan loss reserve. The allowance for loan losses is established through a
provision charged to expense. Loans are charged against the allowance when
management believes collection of the principal is unlikely. The allowance
for loan losses is based on management's judgment of overall loan quality.
This is a significant estimate based on a detailed analysis of the loan
portfolio. The
24
balance can and will change based on changes in the assessment of the
portfolio's overall credit quality. We evaluate the adequacy of the
allowance for loan losses on a quarterly basis.
The allowance for loan losses at June 30, 2006 was $17.3 million, compared to
$17.4 million at December 31, 2005. At June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005,
the allowance represented 0.84% of total loans. While there can be no
assurance that we will not sustain loan losses in a particular period that
are substantial in relation to the size of the allowance, our assessment of
the loan portfolio does not indicate a likelihood of this occurrence. It is
management's opinion that the allowance at June 30, 2006 is adequate to
absorb losses inherent in the loan portfolio at quarter-end.
Deposits
Average deposits for the second quarter of 2006 increased $23.7 million, or
1.17%, from the fourth quarter of 2005 due to continued strong increases in
NOW ($26.3 million) and money market ($55.8 million) account balances. The
increases reflect new free checking deposits and an increase in Cash Power
money market balances.
The ratio of average noninterest bearing deposits to total deposits was 25.5%
for the second quarter of 2006, compared to 26.8% for the fourth quarter of
2005. For the same period, the ratio of average interest bearing liabilities
to average earning assets was 75.3% and 75.8%, respectively.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Liquidity
General. Liquidity for a banking institution is the availability of funds to
meet increased loan demand, excessive deposit withdrawals, and the payment of
other contractual cash obligations. Management monitors our financial
position in an effort to ensure we have ready access to sufficient liquid
funds to meet normal transaction requirements and take advantage of
investment opportunities and cover unforeseen liquidity demands. In addition
to core deposit growth, sources of funds available to meet liquidity demands
include cash received through ordinary business activities (i.e., collection
of interest and fees), federal funds sold, loan and investment maturities,
our bank lines of credit, approved lines for the purchase of federal funds by
CCB and Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") advances.
Average liquidity (defined as funds sold and interest bearing deposits with
other banks) for the second quarter of 2006 was approximately $48.8 million,
an increase of $16.5 million from the fourth quarter of 2005. The increase
is primarily reflective of deposit growth. Liquidity levels should fluctuate
during the third quarter consistent with planned loan growth.
Borrowings. We have the ability to draw on a $25.0 million revolving credit
note, due on October 15, 2007. Interest is payable quarterly at LIBOR plus
an applicable margin on advances. The revolving credit note is unsecured.
The existing loan agreement contains certain financial covenants that we must
maintain. At June 30, 2006, we were in compliance with all of the terms of
the agreement and had $25.0 million available under the credit facility.
For the first half of the year, the Bank made FHLB advance payments totaling
approximately $6.4 million and obtained one new FHLB advance for $3.2
million.
We issued a $32.0 million junior subordinated deferrable interest note in May
2005 to a wholly owned Delaware statutory trust, Capital City Bank Group
Capital Trust II ("CCBG Capital Trust II"). Interest payments are due
quarterly at a fixed rate of 6.07% for the first five years, then adjust
annually thereafter based on the three month LIBOR plus a margin of 1.80%.
The note matures on June 15, 2035. The proceeds of the borrowing were used
to fund the cash portion of the FABC purchase price.
25
Contractual Cash Obligations. We maintain certain contractual arrangements
to make future cash payments. The table below details those future cash
payment obligations as of June 30, 2006. Payments for borrowings do not
include interest. Payments related to leases are based on actual payments
specified in the underlying contracts.

Capital
Equity capital was $311.7 million as of June 30, 2006 compared to $305.8
million as of December 31, 2005. Management continues to monitor our capital
position in relation to our level of assets with the objective of maintaining
a strong capital position. The leverage ratio was 10.35% at June 30, 2006
compared to 10.27% at December 31, 2005. Further, the risk-adjusted capital
ratio of 13.92% at June 30, 2006 exceeds the 8.0% minimum requirement under
the risk-based regulatory guidelines. As allowed by the Federal Reserve
Board capital guidelines the trust preferred securities issued by Capital
City Bank Group Capital Trust I and CCBG Capital Trust II are included as
Tier 1 capital in our capital calculations.
Adequate capital and financial strength is paramount to the stability of CCBG
and the Bank. Cash dividends declared and paid should not place unnecessary
strain on our capital levels. Although a consistent dividend payment is
believed to be favorably viewed by the financial markets and shareowners, the
Board of Directors will declare dividends only if we are considered to have
adequate capital. Future capital requirements and corporate plans are
considered when the Board considers a dividend payment. Dividends declared
and paid during the second quarter of 2006 totaled $.1625 per share compared
to $.1520 per share for the second quarter of 2005, an increase of 6.9%. The
dividend payout ratios for the second quarter ended 2006 and 2005 were 36.8%
and 34.5%, respectively.
State and federal regulations as well as our long-term debt agreements place
certain restrictions on the payment of dividends by both CCBG and the Bank.
At June 30, 2006, these regulations and covenants did not impair CCBG or the
Bank's ability to declare and pay dividends or to meet other existing
obligations in the normal course of business.
During the first six months of 2006, shareowners' equity increased $6.0
million, or 3.9%, on an annualized basis. Growth in equity during the first
six months of the year was positively impacted by net income of $15.7
million, the issuance of common stock of $0.9 million and, stock-based
compensation accretion of $0.9 million. Equity was reduced by dividends paid
during the first six months of the year by $6.1 million, or $.3250 per share,
an increase in the net unrealized loss on available-for-sale securities of
$0.7 million, and the repurchase of common stock of $4.8 million. At June
30, 2006, our common stock had a book value of $16.81 per diluted share
compared to $16.39 at December 31, 2005.
Our Board of Directors has authorized the repurchase of up to 1,171,875
shares of our outstanding common stock. The purchases are made in the open
market or in privately negotiated transactions. To date, we have repurchased
a total of 864,760 shares at an average purchase price of $18.28 per share.
We repurchased 148,876 shares of our common stock in the second quarter of
2006 at an average purchase price of $32.41 per share.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
We do not currently engage in the use of derivative instruments to hedge
interest rate risks. However, we are a party to financial instruments with
off-balance sheet risks in the normal course of business to meet the
financing needs of our clients.
At June 30, 2006, we had $454.6 million in commitments to extend credit and
$19.1 million in standby letters of credit. Commitments to extend credit are
agreements to lend to a client so 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. Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments
issued by us to guarantee the performance of a client to a third party. We
use the same credit policies in establishing commitments and issuing letters
of credit as we do for on-balance sheet instruments.
If commitments arising from these financial instruments continue to require
funding at historical levels, management does not anticipate that such
funding will adversely impact its ability to meet on-going obligations. In
the event these commitments require funding in excess of historical levels,
management believes current liquidity, available lines of credit from the
FHLB, investment security maturities and our revolving credit facility
provide a sufficient source of funds to meet these commitments.
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Critical Accounting Policies
The consolidated financial statements and accompanying Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America, which require us to make
various estimates and assumptions (see Note 1 in the Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements). We believe that, of our significant accounting
policies, the following may involve a higher degree of judgment and
complexity.
Allowance for Loan Losses. The allowance for loan losses is established
through a charge to the provision for loan losses. Provisions are made to
reserve for estimated losses in loan balances. The allowance for loan losses
is a significant estimate and is evaluated quarterly by us for adequacy. The
use of different estimates or assumptions could produce a different required
allowance, and thereby a larger or smaller provision recognized as expense in
any given reporting period. A further discussion of the allowance for loan
losses can be found in the section entitled "Allowance for Loan Losses" and
Note 1 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2005 Annual
Report on Form 10-K.
Intangible Assets. Intangible assets consist primarily of goodwill, core
deposit assets, and other identifiable intangibles that were recognized in
connection with various acquisitions. Goodwill represents the excess of the
cost of acquired businesses over the fair market value of their identifiable
net assets. We perform an impairment review on an annual basis to determine
if there has been impairment of our goodwill. We have determined that no
impairment existed at December 31, 2005. Impairment testing requires
management to make significant judgments and estimates relating to the fair
value of its identified reporting units. Significant changes to these
estimates may have a material impact on our reported results.
Core deposit assets represent the premium we paid for core deposits. Core
deposit intangibles are amortized on the straight-line method over various
periods ranging from 5-10 years. Generally, core deposits refer to
nonpublic, non-maturing deposits including noninterest-bearing deposits, NOW,
money market and savings. We make certain estimates relating to the useful
life of these assets, and rate of run-off based on the nature of the specific
assets and the client bases acquired. If there is a reason to
27
believe there has been a permanent loss in value, management will assess
these assets for impairment. Any changes in the original estimates may
materially affect reported earnings.
Pension Assumptions. We have a defined benefit pension plan for the benefit
of substantially all of our associates. Our funding policy with respect to
the pension plan is to contribute amounts to the plan sufficient to meet
minimum funding requirements as set by law. Pension expense, reflected in
the Consolidated Statements of Income in noninterest expense as "Salaries and
Associate Benefits," is determined by an external actuarial valuation based
on assumptions that are evaluated annually as of December 31, the measurement
date for the pension obligation. The Consolidated Statements of Financial
Condition reflect an accrued pension benefit cost due to funding levels and
unrecognized actuarial amounts. The most significant assumptions used in
calculating the pension obligation are the weighted-average discount rate
used to determine the present value of the pension obligation, the weighted-
average expected long-term rate of return on plan assets, and the assumed
rate of annual compensation increases. These assumptions are re-evaluated
annually with the external actuaries, taking into consideration both current
market conditions and anticipated long-term market conditions.
The weighted-average discount rate is determined by matching anticipated
Retirement Plan cash flows for a 30-year period to long-term corporate Aa-
rated bonds and solving for the underlying rate of return, which investing in
such securities would generate. This methodology is applied consistently
from year-to-year. We anticipate using a 5.75% discount rate for 2006.
The weighted-average expected long-term rate of return on plan assets is
determined based on the current and anticipated future mix of assets in the
plan. The assets currently consist of equity securities, U.S. Government and
Government agency debt securities, and other securities (typically temporary
liquid funds awaiting investment). We anticipate using a rate of return on
plan assets of 8.0% for 2006.
The assumed rate of annual compensation increases of 5.50% for 2006 is based
on expected trends in salaries and the employee base. This assumption is not
expected to change materially in 2006.
Information on components of our net periodic benefit cost is provided in
Note 8 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included herein and
Note 12 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2005 Annual
Report on Form 10-K.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
SFAS No. 155, "Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments."
SFAS 155 amends SFAS 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities" and SFAS 140, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of
Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities." SFAS 155 (i) permits
fair value re-measurement for any hybrid financial instrument that contains
an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation, (ii)
clarifies which interest-only strips and principal-only strips are not
subject to the requirements of SFAS 133, (iii) establishes a requirement to
evaluate interests in securitized financial assets to identify interests that
are freestanding derivatives or that are hybrid financial instruments that
contain an embedded derivative requiring bifurcation, (iv) clarifies that
concentrations of credit risk in the form of subordination are not embedded
derivatives, and (v) amends SFAS 140 to eliminate the prohibition on a
qualifying special purpose entity from holding a derivative financial
instrument that pertains to a beneficial interest other than another
derivative financial instrument. SFAS 155 is effective for us on January 1,
2007, and is not expected to have a significant impact on our financial
statements.
28
In July 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation 48, "Accounting for Income
Tax Uncertainties" ("FIN 48"). FIN 48 defines the threshold for recognizing
the benefits of tax return positions in the financial statements as "more-
likely-than-not" to be sustained by the taxing authority. The recently
issued literature also provides guidance on the derecognition, measurement
and classification of income tax uncertainties, along with any related
interest and penalties. FIN 48 also includes guidance concerning accounting
for income tax uncertainties in interim periods and increases the level of
disclosures associated with any recorded income tax uncertainties. FIN 48 is
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The
differences between the amounts recognized in the statements of financial
position prior to the adoption of FIN 48 and the amounts reported after
adoption will be accounted for as a cumulative-effect adjustment recorded to
the beginning balance of retained earnings. We are currently evaluating the
potential impact of FIN 48 on our consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Overview
Market risk management arises from changes in interest rates, exchange rates,
commodity prices, and equity prices. We have risk management policies to
monitor and limit exposure to market risk and do not participate in
activities that give rise to significant market risk involving exchange
rates, commodity prices, or equity prices. In asset and liability management
activities, policies are in place that are designed to minimize structural
interest rate risk.
Interest Rate Risk Management
The normal course of business activity exposes us to interest rate risk.
Fluctuations in interest rates may result in changes in the fair market value
of our financial instruments, cash flows and net interest income. We seek to
avoid fluctuations in our net interest margin and to maximize net interest
income within acceptable levels of risk through periods of changing interest
rates. Accordingly, our interest rate sensitivity and liquidity are
monitored on an ongoing basis by our Asset and Liability Committee ("ALCO"),
which oversees market risk management and establishes risk measures, limits
and policy guidelines for managing the amount of interest rate risk and its
effects on net interest income and capital. A variety of measures are used
to provide for a comprehensive view of the magnitude of interest rate risk,
the distribution of risk, the level of risk over time and the exposure to
changes in certain interest rate relationships.
ALCO continuously monitors and manages the balance between interest rate-
sensitive assets and liabilities. ALCO's objective is to manage the impact
of fluctuating market rates on net interest income within acceptable levels.
In order to meet this objective, management may adjust the rates charged/paid
on loans/deposits or may shorten/lengthen the duration of assets or
liabilities within the parameters set by ALCO.
Our financial assets and liabilities are classified as other-than-trading.
An analysis of the other-than-trading financial components, including the
fair values, are presented in Table II. This table presents our consolidated
interest rate sensitivity position as of June 30, 2006 based upon certain
assumptions as set forth in the Notes to the Table. The objective of
interest rate sensitivity analysis is to measure the impact on our net
interest income due to fluctuations in interest rates. The asset and
liability values presented in Table II may not necessarily be indicative of
our interest rate sensitivity over an extended period of time.
We expect rising rates to have a favorable impact on the net interest margin,
subject to the magnitude and timeframe over which the rate changes occur.
However, as general interest rates rise or fall, other factors such as
current market conditions and competition may impact how we respond to
changing rates and thus impact the magnitude of change in net interest
income. Non-maturity deposits offer management greater discretion as to the
direction, timing, and magnitude of interest rate changes and can have a
material impact on our interest rate sensitivity. In addition, the relative
level of interest rates as compared to the current yields/rates of existing
assets/liabilities can impact both the direction and magnitude of the change
in net interest margin as rates rise and fall from one period to the next.
31
Inflation
The impact of inflation on the banking industry differs significantly from
that of other industries in which a large portion of total resources are
invested in fixed assets such as property, plant and equipment.
Assets and liabilities of financial institutions are virtually all monetary
in nature, and therefore are primarily impacted by interest rates rather than
changing prices. While the general level of inflation underlies most
interest rates, interest rates react more to changes in the expected rate of
inflation and to changes in monetary and fiscal policy. Net interest income
and the interest rate spread are good measures of our ability to react to
changing interest rates and are discussed in further detail in the section
entitled "Results of Operations."
