1.) Basis of Presentation:

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S.GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring items) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2007 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2007. These interim unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our annual audited financial statements as of December 31, 2006, included in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. The accompanying consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2006, has been derived from the audited consolidated balance sheet but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements.

2.) Reclassifications:

Certain items contained in the 2006 financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the presentation for 2007. Such reclassifications had no effect on the net results of operations.

3.) Investment Securities:

Securities classified as held to maturity are those that management has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity. Securities held to maturity are stated at cost, adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts, with such amortization or accretion included in interest income.

Securities classified as available for sale are those that could be sold for liquidity, investment management, or similar reasons even though management has no present intentions to do so. Securities available for sale are carried at fair value using the specific identification method. Changes in the unrealized gains and losses on available for sale securities are recorded net of tax effect as a component of comprehensive income.

Trading securities are principally held with the intention of selling in the near term. Trading securities are carried at fair value with changes in fair value reported in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

4.) Concentration of Credit Risk and Off Balance Sheet Risk:

The Company currently does not enter into derivative financial instruments including futures, forwards, interest rate risk swaps, option contracts, or other financial instruments with similar characteristics. The Company also does not participate in any partnerships that might give rise to off-balance sheet liabilities.

The Company, through its subsidiary bank, 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, standby letters of credit, and financial guarantees. Such instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized on the balance sheet. The contract or notional amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of involvement the Company has in particular classes of financial instruments.

In the event of nonperformance by the other party, the Company’s exposure to credit loss on these financial instruments is represented by the contract or notional amount of the instrument. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for instruments recorded on the balance sheet. The amount and nature of collateral obtained, if any, is based on management’s credit evaluation.


	CONTRACT OR
	NOTIONAL AMOUNT
	June 30,		December 31,
	2007		2006
Financial instruments whose contract amount represents credit risk:
Commitments to extend credit:
Fixed rate	$	1,754	$	3,102
Variable		36,481		44,422
Standby letters of credit		2,213		1,810

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company’s subsidiary bank to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. 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. Generally these financial arrangements have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of these commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.

The Company’s subsidiary bank also offers limited overdraft protection as a non-contractual courtesy which is available to demand deposit accounts owned accounts in good standing for business, personal or household use. The Company reserves the right to discontinue this service without prior notice. The available amount of overdraft protection on depositors’ accounts not included in the table above at June 30, 2007 totaled $11,491 and $9,827 at December 31, 2006. The total average daily balance of overdrafts used in 2007 was $143 and $151 in 2006, or approximately 1.2% of the total aggregate overdraft protection available to depositors at June 30, 2007 and 1.5% at December 31, 2006.

The following shows the amounts of contractual interest income and interest income actually reflected in income on loans accounted for on a non-accrual basis and loans considered troubled debt restructuring for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006.


	June 30,		June 30,
	2007		2006
Gross interest income that would have been recorded if the loans had been current in accordance with their original terms (contractual interest income)	$	122	$	228
Interest income actually included in income on the loans		6		13

A loan is placed on a non-accrual basis whenever sufficient information is received to question the collectibility of the loan or any time legal proceedings are initiated involving a loan. When a loan is placed on non-accrual status, any interest that has been accrued and not collected on the loan is charged against earnings. Cash payments received while a loan is classified as non-accrual are recorded as a reduction to principal or reported as interest income according to management’s judgment as to collectibility of principal.

A loan is returned to accrual status when either, all of the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are, in management’s opinion, collectible, or when it otherwise becomes well secured and in the process of collection. When a loan is charged-off, any interest accrued but not collected on the loan is charged against earnings.

Impaired loans are generally included in non-accrual loans. Management does not individually evaluate certain smaller balance loans for impairment as such loans are evaluated on an aggregate basis. These loans include 1 — 4 family, consumer and home equity loans. Impaired loans were evaluated using the fair value of collateral as the measurement method. At June 30, 2007, the recorded investment in impaired loans was $1,529 while the related portion of the allowance for loan losses was $725. At December 31, 2006, there were $1,939 in loans considered impaired while the allocated portion of the allowance for loan losses for such loans was $815.

Loans in the amount of $15,615 as of June 30, 2007, and $13,765 as of December 31, 2006 were not included in any of the above categories and were not currently considered impaired, but which can be considered to be potential problem loans.

Any loans classified for regulatory purposes as loss, doubtful, substandard, or special mention that have not been disclosed above do not (i) represent or result from trends or uncertainties which management reasonably expects will materially impact future operating results, liquidity, or capital resources, or (ii) represent material credits about which management is aware of any information which causes management to have serious doubts as to the ability of such borrowers to comply with the loan repayment terms.

The following is an analysis of the allowance for loan losses for the periods ended June 30, 2007 and June 30, 2006:

Balance at end of period	$	2,041		$	2,180		$	2,041		$	2,180

Ratio of annualized net charge-offs to average loans outstanding		0.08	%		0.18	%		0.16	%		0.12	%

Charge-offs in 2007 include an impaired loan in the amount of $98 for which a specific loss reserve had previously been established.

For each of the periods presented above, the provision for loan losses charged to operations is based on management’s judgment after taking into consideration all known factors connected with the collectibility of the existing portfolio. Management evaluates the portfolio in light of economic conditions, changes in the nature and volume of the portfolio, industry standards and other relevant factors. Specific factors considered by management in determining the amounts charged to operations include previous loan loss experience; the status of past due interest and principal payments; the quality of financial information supplied by customers; the cash flow coverage and trends evidenced by financial information supplied by customers; the nature and estimated value of any collateral supporting specific loan credits; risk classifications determined by the Company’s loan review systems or as the result of the regulatory examination process; and general economic conditions in the lending area of the Company’s bank subsidiary. Key risk factors and assumptions are systematically updated to reflect actual experience and changing circumstances.

The Company maintains an allowance for losses on unfunded commercial lending commitments to provide for the risk of loss inherent in these arrangements. The allowance is computed using a methodology similar to that used to determine the allowance for loan losses. This allowance is reported as a liability on the balance sheet within accrued expenses and other liabilities, while the corresponding provision for these losses is recorded as a component of other expense.

Certain asset-specific loans are evaluated individually for impairment, based on management’s best estimate of discounted cash repayments and the anticipated proceeds from liquidating collateral. The actual timing and amount of repayments and the ultimate realizable value of the collateral may differ from management’s estimates.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

(Dollars in thousands, except for per share and share amounts)

The expected loss for certain other commercial credits utilizes internal risk ratings. These loss estimates are sensitive to changes in the customer’s risk profile, the realizable value of collateral, other risk factors and the related loss experience of other credits of similar risk. Consumer credits generally employ statistical loss factors, adjusted for other risk indicators, applied to pools of similar loans stratified by asset type. These loss estimates are sensitive to changes in delinquency status and shifts in the aggregate risk profile.

5.) Legal Proceedings:

The Bank is involved in legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the outcomes from these matters, either individually or in the aggregate, are not expected to have any material effect on the Company.

6.) Earnings Per Share and Capital Transactions:

The following table sets forth the computation of basic earnings per common share and diluted earnings per common share. Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the applicable period.


	THREE MONTHS ENDED				SIX MONTHS ENDED
	June 30,				June 30,
	2007		2006		2007		2006

Net Income	$	1,057	$	1,076	$	2,159	$	2,251
Weighted average common shares outstanding*		4,492,808		4,471,365		4,502,042		4,464,805

Basic earnings per share*	$	0.24	$	0.24	$	0.48	$	0.50
Diluted earnings per share*	$	0.24	$	0.24	$	0.48	$	0.50
Dividends declared per share*	$	0.22	$	0.22	$	0.44	$	0.43


*		Average shares outstanding and the resulting per share amounts have been restated to give retroactive effect to the 2% stock dividend of January 1, 2007

7.) Stock Repurchase Program

On February 27, 2007, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a Stock Repurchase Program which permitted the Company to repurchase up to 100,000 shares of its outstanding common shares in the over-the-counter market or in privately negotiated transactions in accordance with applicable regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Based on the value of the Company’s stock on February 27, 2007, the commitment to repurchase the stock over the program was approximately $1,715. The repurchase program will terminate upon the earlier to occur of the purchase of 100,000 shares or February 28, 2009. Repurchased shares are designated as treasury shares, available for general corporate purposes, including possible use in connection with the Company’s dividend reinvestment program, employee benefit plans, acquisitions or other distributions. Under the program the Company repurchased 85,214 shares. The Company also reissued 26,521 shares to existing shareholders through its dividend reinvestment program during 2007.

8.) Subordinated Debt

On June 12, 2007, the Board of Directors for the Cortland Bancorp authorized the Company to form a statutory trust for the purposes of issuing $5 million in floating rate trust preferred securities. The purpose of the statutory trust is to sell the trust preferred securities to investors and use the proceeds to purchase a subordinated note from the Bancorp. This would become the trust’s sole asset, and cash flows from the note would largely mirror the dividends payable on the trust preferred security. On July 31, 2007, to take advantage of favorable pricing conditions, the above events occurred and the transaction closed. The Company will use the proceeds to support general business purposes, including the repurchase of the Company’s common stock.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

(Dollars in thousands)

Financial Review

The following is management’s discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations of Cortland Bancorp (the “Company”). The discussion should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes included elsewhere in this report.

Note Regarding Forward-looking Statements

The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a “safe harbor” for forward-looking statements. In addition to historical information, certain information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and other material filed or to be filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (as well as information included in oral statements or other written statements made or to be made by the Company) may contain herein, the forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. The words “believes,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “projects,” “contemplates,” “anticipates,” “forecasts,” “intends,” or similar terminology identify forward-looking statements. These statements reflect management’s beliefs and assumptions, and are based on information currently available to management. Economic circumstances, the Company’s operations and actual results could differ significantly from those discussed in any forward-looking statements. Some of the factors that could cause or contribute to such differences are changes in the economy and interest rates either nationally or in the Company’s market area; changes in customer preferences and consumer behavior; increased competitive pressures or changes in either the nature or composition of competitors; changes in the legal and regulatory environment; changes in factors influencing liquidity such as expectations regarding the rate of inflation or deflation, currency exchange rates, and other factors influencing market volatility; unforeseen risks associated with other global economic, political and financial factors. While actual results may differ significantly from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements, the Company undertakes no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statement for any reason, even if new information becomes available.

Certain Non GAAP Measures

Certain financial information has been determined by methods other than Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). Specifically, certain financial measures are based on core earnings rather than net income. Core earnings exclude income, expense, gains and losses that either are not reflective of ongoing operations or that are not expected to reoccur with any regularity or reoccur with a high degree of uncertainty and volatility. Such information may be useful to both investors and management, and can aid them in understanding the Company’s current performance trends and financial condition. Core earnings are a supplemental tool for analysis and not a substitute for GAAP net income. Reconciliation from GAAP net income to the non GAAP measure of core earnings is shown as part of management’s discussion and analysis of quarterly and year-to-date financial results of operations.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and follow general practices within the industries in which it operates. The most significant accounting policies followed by the Company are presented in “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the 2006 annual report on Form 10-K. Application of these principles requires management to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Some of these policies and related methodologies are more critical than others. There has been no material change in critical accounting estimates since those presented in the 2006 annual report on Form 10-K.

The Company has identified its policy on the allowance for loan losses as being critical because it requires management to make particularly difficult, subjective and/or complex judgments about matters that are inherently uncertain, and because of the likelihood that materially different amounts would be reported under different conditions or by using different assumptions. In determining the appropriate amount to reserve for potential credit losses, the Company’s banking subsidiary also considers unfunded commitments, such as loan commitments, letter of credit and unused lines of credit.

Liquidity

The central role of the Company’s liquidity management is to (1) ensure sufficient liquid funds to meet the normal transaction requirements of its customers, (2) take advantage of market opportunities requiring flexibility and speed, and (3) provide a cushion against unforeseen liquidity needs.

Principal sources of liquidity for the Company include assets considered relatively liquid, such as interest-bearing deposits in other banks, federal funds sold, cash and due from banks, as well as cash flows from maturities and repayments of loans, investment securities and mortgage-backed securities.

Along with its liquid assets, the Company has other sources of liquidity available to it, which help to ensure that adequate funds are available as needed. These other sources include, but are not limited to, the ability to obtain deposits through the adjustment of interest rates, the purchasing of federal funds, borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati and access to the Federal Reserve Discount Window.

Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $1,714 from June 30, 2006 and by $5,783 from levels measured at year-end. The decrease is mainly attributable to a decrease in federal funds sold. Operating activities provided cash of $752 and $1,919 during the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Key differences stem mainly from: 1) a decrease in net income of $92 compared to June 30, 2006; 2) loans held for sale increased by $809 at June 30, 2007 as compared to an increase of $171 at June 30, 2006; 3) gains on the sale of investments was $32 at June 30, 2007 where there was $18 at June 30, 2006; 4) amortization on securities was $172 in 2007 compared to $263 in 2006; 5) provision for loan loss was $130 at June 30, 2006 compared to none at June 30, 2007; and 6) an asset for FHLMC payments receivable of $467 was recorded at June 30, 2007, an increase of $195 from December 31, 2006, while the balance at June 30, 2006 was $187. an increase of $3. Refer to the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for a summary of the sources and uses of cash for June 30, 2007 and 2006, and the following table which details the cash flows from operating activities.

Capital Resources

The capital management function is a continuous process which consists of providing capital for both the current financial position and the anticipated future growth of the Company. Central to this process is internal equity generation, particularly through earnings retention. Internal capital generation is measured as the annualized rate of return on equity, exclusive of any appreciation or depreciation relating to available for sale securities, multiplied by the percentage of earnings retained. Internally generated capital retained by the Company measured 0.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 1.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2006. Overall capital (a figure which reflects earnings, dividends paid, common stock issued, treasury shares purchased, treasury shares reissued and the net change in the estimated fair value of available for sale securities) decreased at an annual rate of 5.3%. Capital ratios remained well in excess of regulatory minimums.

Risk-based standards for measuring capital adequacy require banks and bank holding companies to maintain capital based on “risk-adjusted” assets. Categories of assets with potentially higher credit risk require more capital than assets with lower risk. In addition, banks and bank holding companies are required to maintain capital to support, on a risk-adjusted basis, certain off-balance sheet activities such as standby letters of credit and interest rate swaps.

These standards also classify capital into two tiers, referred to as Tier 1 and Tier 2. The Company’s Tier 1 capital consists of common shareholders’ equity (excluding any gain or loss on available for sale debt securities) less intangible assets and the net unrealized loss on equity securities with readily determinable fair values. Tier 2 capital is the allowance for loan and lease losses reduced for certain regulatory limitations.

Risk based capital standards require a minimum ratio of 8% of qualifying total capital to risk-adjusted total assets with at least 4% constituting Tier 1 capital. Capital qualifying as Tier 2 capital is limited to 100% of Tier 1 capital. All banks and bank holding companies are also required to maintain a minimum leverage capital ratio (Tier 1 capital to total average assets) in the range of 3% to 4%, subject to regulatory guidelines.

The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 (FDICIA) required banking regulatory agencies to revise risk-based capital standards to ensure that they adequately account for the following additional risks: interest rate, concentration of credit, and non traditional activities. Accordingly, regulators will subjectively consider an institution’s exposure to declines in the economic value of its capital due to changes in interest rates in evaluating capital adequacy. The table below illustrates the Company’s risk weighted capital ratios at June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006.

The increase in interest income was the product of a 6.0% year-over-year increase in average earning assets and a 21 basis point increase in interest rates earned, while the increase in interest expense was a product of a 7.1% increase in interest-bearing liabilities and a 48 basis point increase in rates paid. The net result was a 0.3% increase in net interest income on a fully tax equivalent basis and a 20 basis point decrease in the Company’s net interest margin ratio.

Interest and dividend income on securities registered an increase of $194 or 3.2%, during the six months ended June 30, 2007 when compared to 2006. On a fully tax equivalent basis, income on investment securities increased by $134 or 2.1%. The average invested balances decreased by $2,619 from the levels of a year ago. The decrease in the average balance of investment securities was accompanied by an 18 basis point increase in the tax equivalent yield of the portfolio.

Interest and fees on loans increased by $943 or 14.0%, while on a fully tax equivalent basis, income on loans increased by $931 or 13.7%, for the six months of 2007 compared to 2006. A $20,075 increase in the average balance of the loan portfolio, or 10.5%, was accompanied by a 19 basis point increase in the portfolio’s tax equivalent yield.

Other interest income increased by $232 from the same period a year ago. The average balance of federal funds sold and other money market funds increased by $8,492 or 350.0%. The yield increased by 78 basis points during the first six months of 2007 compared to 2006.

Average interest-bearing demand deposits and money market accounts decreased by $2,092, while savings decreased by $4,850. The average rate paid on these products increased by 10 basis points in the aggregate. The average balance on time deposit products increased by $24,450, as the average rate paid increased by 62 basis points, from 4.1% to 4.7%.

Compared to last year, average borrowings and federal funds purchased increased by $7,002, while the average rate paid on borrowings increased by 5 basis points.

Net interest income after provision for loan losses benefited from improving asset quality negating the need for any additional provision for loan loss, and contributed an additional $130 compared to a year ago.

Analysis of Other Income, Other Expense and Federal Income Tax

Other income from all sources increased by $135 from the same period a year ago. Gains on 1-4 residential mortgage loans sold in the secondary mortgage market decreased by $13 from the same period a year ago. Gains on securities called and net gains on the sale of available for sale investment securities increased by $14 from year ago levels. Fees for other customer services increased by $48 due in part to a $22 increase in service charge income on deposits. Earnings on bank owned life insurance increased by $64, reflecting increases in the investment yields associated with these policies. Loss on the sale of Other Real Estate Owned (OREO) was $1 at June 30, 2007, a decrease of $27 from the loss of $28 recorded at June 30, 2006. Other sources of non-recurring non-interest income decreased by $5 from the same period a year ago. This latter income category is subject to fluctuation due to the non-recurring nature of the items.

Loan charge-offs during the first six months were $216 in 2007 compared to $161 in 2006, while the recovery of previously charged-off loans amounted to $46 in 2007 compared to $43 in 2006. The increase in charge-offs in 2007 includes an impaired loan in the amount of $98 for which a specific loss reserve had previously been established. Non-accrual loans at June 30, 2007 represented 1.3% of the loan portfolio compared to 2.0% at June 30, 2006.

Total other expenses in the first six months were $6,269 in 2007 compared to $6,018 in 2006, an increase of $251 or 4.2%. Full time equivalent employment averaged 166 during the first six months of 2007 compared to 159 at June 30, 2006. Salaries and benefits increased by $263 or 7.8%, from the similar period a year ago. This increase is a combination of regular staff salary and benefit increases and an increase in full-time equivalent employment.

For the first six months of 2007, state and local taxes increased by $15. Occupancy and equipment expense increased by $20 or 2.2%. Office supplies increased by $11. Bank exam and audit expense decreased by $54, due to differences in the timing of expenditures. All other expense categories decreased by 0.4%, or $4 as a group. This expense category is subject to fluctuation due to non-recurring items.

Income before income tax expense amounted to $2,690 for the first six months of 2007 compared to $2,582 for the similar period of 2006. The effective tax rate for the first six months was 19.7% in 2007 compared to 12.8% in 2006, resulting in income tax expense of $531 and $331, respectively. The difference in the effective tax rate primarily reflects a one-time adjustment to tax expense of $145 due to a change in tax accrual estimate made in the first quarter of 2006. The effective tax rate before the $145 adjustment was 18.4% at June 30, 2006. The provision for income taxes differs from the amount of income tax determined applying the applicable U.S. statutory federal income tax rate to pre-tax income as a result of the following differences:

Analysis of Assets and Liabilities

Total cash and cash equivalents decreased by $5,783 from year-end, and $1,714 from the twelve month period ending June 30, 2006. This decrease is due mainly to federal funds sold, which decreased by $3,950 from year-end and $75 from June 30, 2006.

Investment securities increased by $7,168 from year-end levels and by $6,906 from the same quarter a year ago. The purchases primarily represented discounted callable U.S. Government agencies that contain a lock-out period prior to the first call date and also mortgage-backed securities. The investment portfolio represented 64.6% of each deposit dollar, down from 65.5% a year ago.

Loans net of the allowance for losses increased by $17,768 during the twelve month period from June 30, 2006 to June 30, 2007, and increased by $10,627 from year-end. Gross loans as a percentage of earning assets stood at 47.3% as of June 30, 2007 and 45.7% at June 30, 2006. The loan to deposit ratio at the end of the first six months of 2007 was 58.0% and 57.7% for the same period a year ago. The increase in loans has primarily resulted from a marketing campaign designed to increase market share for commercial and small business loans secured by real estate. At June 30, 2007 the loan loss allowance of $2,041 represented approximately 0.9% of outstanding loans, and at June 30, 2006, the loan loss allowance of $2,211 represented approximately 1.1% of outstanding loans.

Premises and equipment increased by $495 from year-end and $1,139 from June 30, 2006. This is mainly due to construction of a 2,500 square foot banking facility. The banking office replaced an existing leased bank location in the village of Windham. The newly constructed office opened in May of 2007.

Other assets increased by $1,378 or 8.3% from year-end and $985 or 5.8% from June 30, 2006. This increase is due partly to a $280 increase in FHLMC payments receivable, from June 2006 and $195 from year end. Also included in other assets is bank owned life insurance with a cash surrender value of $12,049 at June 30, 2007, $11,814 at December 31, 2006 and $11,468 at June 30, 2006.

Non interest-bearing deposits decreased by $3,724 from year-end and $1,839 from twelve months ago. Interest-bearing deposits increased by $19,715 from year-end and $30,618 from June 30, 2006. The increase is due primarily to an increase in certificates of deposit in the amount of $100 or more, which increased by $29,635 from June 30, 2006. There are no brokered deposits among the Company’s deposit totals.

Borrowings, mainly from the Federal Home Loan Bank, decreased by $827 from year-end and $4,270 from June 30, 2006. Other liabilities remained relatively stable ranging from $2,955 at June 30 2006 to $3,326 at December 31, 2006 and $3,380 at June 30, 2007.

The yield on earning assets increased by 13 basis points while second quarter average earning assets increased by 7.6%, or $32,863, when compared to a year ago. The result was an increase in tax equivalent interest income of $719. Included in the $719 is $47 in back interest realized in the second quarter of 2007 for a loan previously placed on non-accrual status. The rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities increased by 48 basis points from the same quarter a year ago, while second quarter average interest-bearing liabilities increased by $32,014 when compared to a year ago, resulting in an increase in total interest expense of $712.

The Company’s provision for loan losses during the quarter ended June 30 2006 was $64. Improving asset quality negated the need for any additional provision for loan loss in the second quarter of 2007.

Other income increased by $33 from a year ago. Fees for customer service increased by $9. Non-taxable income on bank owned life insurance policies increased by $22 reflecting increases in the investment yields associated with these policies. The net gain on loans sold during the quarter amounted to $27, compared to $42 a year ago. Loss on the sale of other real estate decreased from $28 in 2006 to $1 in 2007.

Total other non-interest expenses in the second quarter were $3,206 in 2007 compared to $3,049 in 2006, an increase of $157 or 5.1%. Salaries and benefits constituted a $121 increase, or 7.2%. Bank exam and audit fees decreased by $23 or 18.4% mainly due to the timing of expenses associated with the implementation of the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Other expenses increased by $59 or 4.8%.

Income before income tax during the second quarter amounted to $1,315 in 2007 compared to $1,329 in 2006. Income tax expense for the second quarter of 2007 was $258 compared to $253 in 2006. Second quarter net income was $1,057 in 2007 compared to $1,076 in 2006, representing a decrease of $19, or 1.8%.

Earnings per share for the second quarter, adjusted for the 2% stock dividend paid January 1, 2007, were $0.24 both in 2007 and 2006.

Core earnings (earnings before gains on loans sold, investment securities sold or called and certain other non-recurring items) decreased by 2.7% in the second quarter of 2007 compared to 2006. Core earnings for the second quarter of 2007 were $1,028 compared to last year’s $1,057. Core earnings per share were $0.23 in 2007 and $0.24 in 2006.

The following is a reconciliation between core earnings and earnings under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAPP earnings):

Regulatory Matters

On March 13, 2000, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System approved the Company’s application to become a financial holding company. As a financial holding company, the Company may engage in activities that are financial in nature or incidental to a financial activity, as authorized by the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 (The Financial Services Reform Act). Under the Financial Services Reform Act, the Company may continue to claim the benefits of financial holding company status as long as each depository institution that it controls remains well capitalized and well managed.

The Company is required to provide notice to the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System when it becomes aware that any depository institution controlled by the Company ceases to be well capitalized or well managed. Furthermore, current regulation specifies that prior to initiating or engaging in any new activities that are authorized for financial holding companies, the Company’s insured depository institutions must be rated “satisfactory” or better under the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA). The Company’s bank subsidiary is rated “satisfactory” for CRA purposes, and remains well capitalized and well managed in Management’s opinion.

New Accounting Standards

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements.” SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The provisions of this standard apply to other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company believes that the adoption of SFAS No. 157 will not have a material impact on the financial statements.

In September 2006, the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) reached a final consensus on Issue 06-4, “Accounting for Deferred Compensation and Postretirement Benefit Aspects of Endorsement Split-Dollar Life Insurance Arrangements”. The consensus stipulates that an agreement by an employer to share a portion of the proceeds of a life insurance policy with an employee during the postretirement period is a postretirement benefit arrangement required to be accounted for under SFAS No. 106 (postretirement benefit plans) or APB No. 12 (deferred compensation plan). The consensus concludes that the purchase of a split-dollar life insurance policy does not constitute a settlement; therefore, a liability should be recognized for future benefits. Issue 06-4 is effective for years beginning after December 15, 2007. Management is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of Issue 06-4.

In September 2006, the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) ratified the consensus on Issue 06-5, “Accounting for Purchases of Life Insurance-Determining the Amount that Could be Realized in Accordance with FASB Technical Bulletin No. 85-4.” The consensus stipulates that the policy owner should consider the cash surrender value as well as any additional amounts included in the contractual terms of the policy in determining the amount recognized as an asset pursuant to FASB Technical Bulletin No. 85-4. The consensus in this Issue is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption of Issue 06-5.

In October 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 158, “Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans.” SFAS No. 158 requires an employer to recognize the funded status of each of its defined pension and postretirement benefit plans in the balance sheet, to recognize changes in the funded status in the year in which changes occur through comprehensive income, and to measure the funded status as of the balance sheet date. The requirement to recognize the funded status of benefit plans and the disclosure requirements are effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2006. The requirement to measure the funded status as of the date of the balance sheet is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2008. The Company has determined that its adoption of SFAS No. 158 will not have a material impact on its earnings, cash flows and financial position.

(Dollars in thousands)

In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities” (“SFAS 159”). SFAS 159 would allow the Company an irrevocable election to measure certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses on the elected items recognized in earnings at each reporting period. The fair value option may only be elected at the time of initial recognition of a financial asset or financial liability or upon the occurrence of certain specified events. The election is applied on an instrument by instrument basis, with a few exceptions, and is applied only to entire instruments and not to portions of instruments. SFAS 159 also provides expanded disclosure requirements regarding the effects of electing the fair value option on the financial statements. SFAS 159 is effective prospectively for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company is currently evaluating this Statement and has not yet determined the financial assets and liabilities, if any, for which the fair value option would be elected or the potential impact on the consolidated financial statements, if such election were made.

Available Information

The Company files an annual report on Form 10K, quarterly reports on Form 10Q, current reports on Form 8K and amendments to those reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) pursuant to Section 13 (a) or (15) d of the Exchange Act. The Company’s Internet address is www.cortland-banks.com. The Company makes available through this address, free of charge, the reports filed, as soon as reasonably practicable after such material is electronically filed, or otherwise furnished to the SEC.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

(Dollars in thousands)

Management considers interest rate risk to be the Company’s principal source of market risk. Interest rate risk is measured as the impact of interest rate changes on the Company’s net interest income. Components of interest rate risk comprise re-pricing risk, basis risk and yield curve risk. Re-pricing risk arises due to timing differences in the re-pricing of assets and liabilities as interest rate changes occur. Basis risk occurs when re-pricing assets and liabilities reference different key rates. Yield curve risk arises when a shift occurs in the relationship among key rates across the maturity spectrum.

The effective management of interest rate risk seeks to limit the adverse impact of interest rate changes on the Company’s net interest margin, providing the Company with the best opportunity for maintaining consistent earnings growth. Toward this end, Management uses computer simulation to model the Company’s financial performance under varying interest rate scenarios. These scenarios may reflect changes in the level of interest rates, changes in the shape of the yield curve, and changes in interest rate relationships.

The simulation model allows Management to test and evaluate alternative responses to a changing interest rate environment. Typically when confronted with a heightened risk of rising interest rates, the Company will evaluate strategies that shorten investment and loan re-pricing intervals and maturities, emphasize the acquisition of floating rate over fixed rate assets, and lengthen the maturities of liability funding sources. When the risk of falling rates is perceived, Management will typically consider strategies that shorten the maturities of funding sources, lengthen the re-pricing intervals and maturities of investments and loans, and emphasize the acquisition of fixed rate assets over floating rate assets.

The most significant assumptions used in the simulation relate to the cash flows and re-pricing characteristics of the Company’s balance sheet. Re-pricing and runoff rate assumptions are based on a detailed interface with actual customer information and investment data stored on the subsidiary bank’s information systems. Consensus prepayment speeds derived from an independent third party source are used to adjust the runoff cash flows for the impact of the specific interest rate environments under consideration. Simulated results are benchmarked against historical results. Actual results may differ from simulated results not only due to the timing, magnitude and frequency of interest rate changes, but also due to changes in general economic conditions, changes in customer preferences and behavior, and changes in strategies by both existing and potential competitors.

The table on the following page shows the Company’s current estimate of interest rate sensitivity based on the composition of the balance sheet at June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006. For purposes of this analysis, short term interest rates as measured by the federal funds rate and the prime lending rate are assumed to increase (decrease) gradually over the subsequent twelve months reaching a level 300 basis points higher (lower) than the rates in effect at June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006 for the respective simulations. Under both the rising rate scenario and the falling rate scenario, the yield curve is assumed to exhibit a parallel shift.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

(CONTINUED)

Over the past twelve months, the Federal Reserve has made no changes in the overnight federal funds rate. At June 30, 2007, the difference between the yield on the ten-year Treasury and the three-month Treasury was a positive 21 basis points compared to a negative 31 basis points at December 31, 2006. With longer-term rates exceeding short-term rates the yield curve is now generally positive, although some degree of inversion remains at the front-end of the yield curve.

The base case against which interest rate sensitivity is measured assumes no change in short-term rates. The base case also assumes no growth in assets and liabilities and no change in asset or liability mix. Under these simulated conditions the base case projects net interest income of $15,236 for the twelve month period ending June 30, 2008.


	Simulated Net Interest Income (NII) Scenarios
	Fully Taxable Equivalent Basis
	For the Twelve Months Ending
	Net Interest Income				$ Change in NII					% Change in NII
Changes in	June 30,		Dec. 31,		June 30,			Dec. 31,		June 30,			Dec. 31,
Interest Rates	2008		2007		2008			2007		2008			2007

Graduated increase of +300 basis points	$	15,040		15,357	$	(196	)	$	3		(1.3	)%		0.0	%
Short term rates unchanged		15,236		15,354
Graduated decrease of -300 basis points		15,368		15,391		132			37		0.9	%		0.3	%

The level of interest rate risk indicated is within limits that Management considers acceptable. However, given that interest rate movements can be sudden and unanticipated, and are increasingly influenced by global events and circumstances beyond the purview of the Federal Reserve, no assurance can be made that interest rate movements will not impact key assumptions and parameters in a manner not presently embodied by the model.

It is Management’s opinion that hedging instruments currently available are not a cost effective means of controlling interest rate risk for the Company. Accordingly, the Company does not currently use financial derivatives, such as interest rate options, floors or other similar instruments.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. With the supervision and participation of management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)) has been evaluated as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that such disclosure controls and procedures are, to the best of their knowledge, effective as of the end of the period covered by this report to ensure that material information relating to the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries is made known to them, particularly during the period for which our periodic reports, including this report, are being prepared.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that there have been no significant changes during the period covered by this report in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-13 and 15d-15 of the Exchange Act) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, internal control over financial reporting.
