Bank of Georgia (LSE: BGEO, GSE: GEB), a leading Georgian universal bank,
announced today nine months consolidated results (IFRS, Unaudited, Reviewed),
reporting year to date Net Income of GEL 17.3 million (US$ 10.0 million), up 96%
year on year.

The Bank reported Net Interest Income before impairment of interest earning
assets of GEL 41.3 million (US$ 23.8 million), a 53% growth year on year, and
Net Fees and Commission Income of GEL 15.9 million (US$ 9.2 million) a 68%
increase year on year as at 30 September 2006. The Bank's Other Non-Interest
Income grew by 94% year on year to GEL 15.0 million (US$ 8.7 million), while
Other Non-Interest Expenses reached GEL 39.6 million (US$ 22.8 million), up by
49% year on year, for the nine months ended 30 September 2006.

The Bank's total assets were GEL 856.7 million (US$ 493.6 million), representing
an 86% growth year to date, which was largely driven by the increase in the loan
book to GEL 560.4 million (US$ 322.9 million), an 88% growth year to date. Total
equity(5 )reached GEL 137.1 million (US$ 79.0 million).

'I am delighted that the bank's profitable growth in the third quarter of 2006
continued following the strong results for the first half of 2006. The
highlights of the quarter were the Bank's success in attracting US$ 55 million
in aggregate in the form of non-deposit debt funding from Merrill Lynch, Thames
River Capital and HBK Investments and an aggregate of GEL 23.5 million (US$ 13.6
million) in equity funding raised through two capital increases in July and
September 2006. The Bank's client deposits grew to GEL 468.0 million (US$ 269.7
million), a 73% increase year to date. The debt and equity funding raised will
continue to support the rapid growth of the Bank's net loan book, which by 30
September 2006 grew by 88 % year to date, and compares to the 52% increase in
the total net loan portfolio of the Georgian banking system over the same
period. I am particularly pleased that we have been able to grow our market
share since the end of 2005,' commented Lado Gurgenidze, Chairman of the
Supervisory Board.

(1) Compared to the same period last year; growth calculations based on GEL
values

(2) Revenue includes net interest income before impairment of interest earning
assets, net fees & commissions income and other non-interest income

(3) Adjusted to reflect the number of shares outstanding following the bank's
offering of 7,440,207 new shares in the form of GDRs in late November and early
December 2006. The number of shares outstanding is the sum of the weighted
average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the nine months ended 30
September 2006 and 7,440,207 new shares in the form of GDRs issued in late
November and early December 2006. Such number of shares is 22,884,810 (excluding
the unawarded shares subscribed for by the bank's Executive Equity Compensation
Plan) as compared with the total of 25,180,620 number of shares outstanding as
of December 5, 2006

(4) Nine months average annualized

(5) Total equity is expected to have increased significantly as a result of the
offering of new shares in the form of GDRs that took place in late November and
early December 2006
