EBANK.COM, INC. REPORTS FIRST QUARTER EARNINGS

ATLANTA, GA, April 23, 2003 - ebank Financial Services, Inc. (OTC BB: EBDC), the parent company of ebank, today announced net income for the first quarter of 2003 of $313,951, including net income of $195,102 or $.11 per common share available to common shareholders after taking into account $118,849 in cumulative dividends on its Series A preferred stock. Net income for the first quarter included $445,972 of income generated by the bank’s Maryland loan production office, which was closed on November 30, 2002, and also included $35,925 of income generated by ebank’s other operations, offset by loan loss provision expense of $103,000 and other administrative expenses (principally professional fees) of $64,946 incurred at the parent company. All loans generated by the Maryland operation were sold to investors during the first quarter of 2003 and we will not realize any additional income from this operation.

Commenting on the quarter’s results, James L. Box, President and CEO, stated, “Overall, we are pleased with the progress that we continue to make toward our goal of achieving profitable operations for the company. We will continue to operate as a community bank in our local market, offering traditional banking products while emphasizing superior customer service. This is a conservative, but proven business model, and we believe it will be highly effective for us in the growing Atlanta market. While we were advised to close the Maryland loan production office by the OTS, our primary regulator, that operation is an example of the business opportunities we will continue to seek out for expansion of the company’s business when we believe that they will enhance the company’s overall performance and value.”
