 W. Lazares, the Bank's Chairman and Co-Chief Executive Officer, stated, "We are pleased to report another solid quarter at Capital Crossing Bank." Mr. Lazares further stated, "A significant portion of the Bank's earnings arises from the recognition of "transactional" income. In the first quarter of 2006, the Bank recognized $7.8 million of transactional income, including $5.3 million of accelerated interest income associated with loan and lease payoffs, $1.3 million on gain on sales of loans and $1.2 million in net gain on sales of other real estate owned Real Estate Owned

Property owned by a lender - usually a bank - after an unsuccessful sale at a foreclosure auction. This is common because most of the properties up for sale at these auctions are worth less than the total amount owed to the bank: the minimum bid in most
 and property in possession. By contrast, in the first quarter of 2005, the Bank recognized $9.8 million of transactional income, including $6.3 million of accelerated interest income associated with loan and lease payoffs and $3.5 million in net gain on sales of other real estate owned and property in possession. Since the level of transactional income, including loan and lease payoffs, is unpredictable from quarter to quarter, the Bank's earnings may fluctuate significantly in the future."

Richard Wayne Dr. Richard Wayne (April 4, 1804 – June 27, 1858) served as mayor of Savannah, Georgia for four terms: 1844 - 1845, 1848 - 1851, 1852 - 1853 and 1857 - 1858. He died while in office.[1]

Wayne was the first mayor of Savannah elected by its citizens.
, the Bank's President and Co-Chief Executive Officer, explained that, "The volume of our loan acquisitions can also be unpredictable from quarter-to-quarter. For example, in the first quarter of 2006, we purchased loans with outstanding principal balances of $34.8 million for a purchase price of $29.4 million, compared to the same period in 2005, when we purchased loans with outstanding principal balances of $50.9 million for a purchase price of $44.4 million."

It has automobile and aircraft industries and other varied manufactures.  continued, "During the course of our review of available loan portfolios, we will, in some cases, decline to bid on a portfolio after analyzing the results of our due diligence Research; analysis; your homework. This term has caught on in all industries, because it sounds so "wired." Who would want to do analysis or research when they can do due diligence.

 by other purchasers. We simply cannot predict how often we will successfully acquire a loan portfolio."

Mr. Wayne further stated, "Our total non-performing assets increased $4.3 million from $42.5 million at December December: see month.  31, 2005 to $46.7 million at March 31, 2006. While a substantial majority of the loan and leases we have acquired in recent years have been performing, we have also acquired appropriately priced non-performing loans A non-performing loan is a loan that is in default or close to being in default. Many loans become non-performing after being in default for 3 months, but this can depend on the contract terms.  and leases. At March 31, 2006, we held loans and leases with net investment balances of $11.8 million which were acquired as non-performing, compared to $14.1 million at December 31, 2005. Additionally, the balance of other real estate owned increased from $14.0 million at December 31, 2005 to $17.3 million at March 31, 2006. The primary source of other real estate owned is purchased loans that are or become non-performing. In the past, our pricing strategy and the level of discount we obtain on such loans and leases has enabled us to, over time, realize significant levels of transactional income from these assets."

During the first quarter of 2006, the Bank's leasing subsidiary, Dolphin dolphin, fish

 Capital Corp., originated leases with an aggregate investment balance of $19.2 million, compared to the same period in 2005 when it originated leases with an aggregate investment balance of $14.5 million. Dolphin Capital Corp.'s net income was $409,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 compared to $870,000 for the same period in 2005.

Since December 31, 2005, the Bank's book value per share has increased $0.32 from $14.52 to $14.84 at March 31, 2006. Additionally, the return on stockholders' equity Stockholders' Equity
