PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
(A) BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT
Cardinal Bankshares Corporation (“Cardinal” or the “Company”) was incorporated as a Virginia corporation on March 12, 1996 to acquire the stock of Bank of Floyd (the “Bank”). The Bank was acquired by the Company on June 30, 1996.
The Bank was organized as a state chartered bank on February 24, 1951 through the consummation of a plan of consolidation between two state chartered community banks then operating in Floyd County, Virginia.
The Bank and its wholly owned subsidiary, FBC, Inc., are incorporated and operate under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia. As a state chartered Federal Reserve member, the Bank is subject to regulation by the Virginia Bureau of Financial Institutions and the Federal Reserve. FBC, Inc.’s assets and operations consist primarily of minority interests in title insurance companies.
(B) DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS
The principal business of the Company and Bank is to provide comprehensive individual and corporate banking services through the Bank’s main office in Floyd, Virginia, and branch offices in Hillsville, Christiansburg, Roanoke, Salem, Willis and Fairlawn, Virginia. The Bank’s wholly owned subsidiary, FBC, Inc., has interests in Virginia Title Center, LLC as well as Virginia Bankers Insurance Center, LLC, both of which act as title insurance companies. FBC, Inc. also has an interest in VBA Investment Services, LLC.
(1) SERVICES
The Bank is a full service retail commercial bank offering a wide range of services, including demand and time deposits as well as installment, mortgage and other consumer lending services. The Bank makes seasonal and term commercial loans, both alone and in conjunction with other banks or governmental agencies.
(2) COMPETITIVE CONDITIONS
The bank business is highly competitive. The Company competes as a financial intermediary with other commercial banks, savings and loan associations, credit unions and money market mutual funds operating in its trade area and elsewhere. As of December 31, 2010, there were three commercial banks (one of which is the Bank) operating a total of three offices in Floyd County, Virginia. The two competing institutions are not locally owned.
Floyd County generates approximately 55% of the Bank’s total deposits. In the other parts of the Bank’s trade area (the Virginia counties of Roanoke, Montgomery, Carroll and Pulaski and the Cities of Roanoke and Salem, Virginia), there are a number of locally owned community banks, statewide banking organizations, and affiliate banks of southeast regional bank holding companies in operation.
1
(3) CUSTOMERS
Deposits are derived from a broad base of customers in its trade area. No material portion of deposits have been obtained from a single person or a few persons (including Federal, State, and local governments and agencies thereunder), the loss of which would have a materially adverse effect on the business of the Bank.
The majority of loans, commitments to extend credit, and standby letters of credit have been granted to customers in the Company’s market area. The majority of such customers are also depositors. The Company generally does not extend credit to any single borrower or group of related borrowers in excess of approximately $2.7 million. Although the Company has a reasonably diversified loan portfolio, it has a loan concentration relating to nonresidential buildings and real estate land developers. Total loans to this group amounted to approximately $33.6 million at December 31, 2010 and approximately $32.5 million at December 31, 2009. In addition, the Company has loan concentrations relating to hotels and motels. Total loans to this group amounted to approximately $14.6 million at December 31, 2010 and approximately $15.0 million at December 31, 2009.
(4) RIGHTS
No patents, trademarks, licenses, franchises or concessions held are of material significance to the Company.
(5) NEW SERVICES
The Company has expended no material dollars on research activities relating to new lines of business in the last three years.
(6) ENVIRONMENTAL LAWS
Compliance with Federal, State, or Local provisions regulating the discharge of materials into the environment has not had, nor is it expected to have in the future, a material effect upon the Company’s capital expenditures, earnings or competitive position.
(7) EMPLOYEES
The Bank had 29 officers, 38 full-time employees and 2 part-time employees as of December 31, 2010.

Based on the evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in enabling us to record, process, summarize and report in a timely manner the information required to be disclosed in reports we file under the Exchange Act.
No change in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during our fourth quarter of 2010 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in theExchange Act Rules 13a-15(f).A system of internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, the Company’s management has evaluated the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010 based on the criteria established in a report entitled“Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission”and the interpretive guidance issued by the Commission in Release No. 34-55929. Based on this evaluation, the Company’s management has evaluated and concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2010.
The Company is continuously seeking to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of its operations and of its internal controls. This results in modifications to its processes throughout the Company. However, there has been no change in its internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company’s most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.

Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Cardinal Bankshares and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2010, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
We were not engaged to examine management’s assertion about the effectiveness of Cardinal Bankshares Corporation and subsidiaries’ internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010 included in Form 10-K and, accordingly, we do not express an opinion thereon.

Note 1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Date of Management Review
Management has evaluated subsequent events through the date which the financial statements were available to be issued.
Organization
Cardinal Bankshares Corporation (the “Company”) was incorporated as a Virginia corporation on March 12, 1996 to acquire the stock of Bank of Floyd (the “Bank”). The Bank was acquired by the Company on June 30, 1996.
Bank of Floyd and its wholly-owned subsidiary, FBC, Inc., are incorporated and operate under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia. As a state chartered Federal Reserve member, the Bank is subject to regulation by the Virginia Bureau of Financial Institutions and the Federal Reserve. The Bank serves the counties of Floyd, Carroll, Montgomery, Roanoke and Pulaski, Virginia and the Cities of Roanoke, Christiansburg, Salem and Fairlawn, Virginia, through seven banking offices. FBC Inc.’s assets and operations consist primarily of annuity sales and minority interests in an insurance company and a title insurance company.
The accounting and financial reporting policies of the Company conform to generally accepted accounting principles and general practices within the financial services industry. Following is a summary of the more significant policies.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of the Company, the Bank and FBC, Inc. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
Critical Accounting Policy
Management believes the policy with respect to the methodology for the determination of the allowance for loan losses involves a high degree of complexity. Management must make difficult and subjective judgments which often require assumptions or estimates about highly uncertain matters. Changes in these judgments, assumptions or estimates could cause reported results to differ materially. This critical policy and its application are periodically reviewed with the Audit Committee and Board of Directors.
Business Segments
The Company reports its activities as a single business segment. In determining proper segment definition, the Company considers the materiality of the potential segment and components of the business about which financial information is available and regularly evaluated, relative to resource allocation and performance assessment.
Advertising Expense
The Company expenses advertising costs as they are incurred. Advertising expense for the years presented is not material to the financial statements.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions in the application of certain accounting policies that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. As a result of unanticipated events or circumstances, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cardinal Bankshares Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, continued
Use of Estimates, continued
Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses and the valuation of real estate acquired in connection with foreclosures or in satisfaction of loans. In connection with the determination of the allowances for loan and foreclosed real estate losses, management obtains independent appraisals for significant properties.
The majority of the Company’s loan portfolio consists of loans in Southwest Virginia. Accordingly, the ultimate collectibility of a substantial portion of the Company’s loan portfolio and the recovery of a substantial portion of the carrying amount of foreclosed real estate are susceptible to changes in local market conditions. The regional economy is diverse, but is influenced by the agricultural, textile and governmental segments.
While management uses available information to recognize loan and foreclosed real estate losses, future additions to the allowances may be necessary based on changes in local economic conditions. In addition, regulatory agencies, as a part of their routine examination process, periodically review the Company’s allowances for loan and foreclosed real estate losses. Such agencies may require additions to the allowances based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examinations. Because of these factors, it is reasonably possible that the allowances for loan and foreclosed real estate losses may change materially in the near term.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purpose of presentation in the consolidated statements of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents are defined as those amounts included in the balance sheet caption “cash and due from banks”.
Interest-Bearing Deposits in Banks
Interest-bearing deposits in banks mature in one year and are carried at cost.
Trading Securities
The Company does not hold securities for short-term resale and therefore does not maintain a trading securities portfolio.
Securities Held to Maturity
Bonds, notes, and debentures for which the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are reported at cost, adjusted for premiums and discounts that are recognized in interest income using the interest method over the period to maturity or to call dates.
Securities Available for Sale
Available for sale securities are reported at fair value and consist of bonds, notes, debentures, and certain equity securities not classified as held to maturity securities.
Unrealized holding gains and losses, net of tax, on available for sale securities are reported as a net amount in a separate component of stockholders’ equity. Realized gains and losses on the sale of available for sale securities are recorded on the trade date and are determined using the specific identification method. Premiums and discounts are recognized in interest income using the interest method over the period to maturity or to call dates.
Declines in the fair value of individual held to maturity and available for sale securities below cost, that are other than temporary, are reflected as write-downs of the individual securities to fair value. Related write-downs are included in earnings as realized losses.

Note 1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, continued
Loans Receivable
Loans receivable that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or pay-off, are reported at their outstanding principal amount adjusted for charge-offs, the allowance for loan losses, deferred fees or costs on originated loans, and unamortized premiums or discounts on purchased loans.
Loan origination fees and certain direct origination costs are deferred and recognized as an adjustment of the yield of the related loan. Discounts and premiums on any purchased residential real estate loans are amortized to income using the interest method over the remaining period to contractual maturity, adjusted for anticipated prepayments. Discounts and premiums on any purchased consumer loans are recognized over the expected lives of the loans using methods that approximate the interest method.
Interest is accrued and credited to income based on the principal amount outstanding. The accrual of interest on impaired loans is discontinued when, in management’s opinion, the borrower may be unable to meet payments as they become due. When interest accrual is discontinued, all unpaid accrued interest is reversed. Interest income is subsequently recognized only to the extent cash payments are received. When facts and circumstances indicate the borrower has regained the ability to meet required payments, the loan is returned to accrual status. Past due status of the loan is determined based on contractual terms.
Allowance for Loan Losses
The allowance for loan losses is established as losses are estimated to have occurred through a provision for loan losses charged to earnings. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance.
The allowance for loan losses is evaluated on a regular basis by management and is based upon management’s periodic review of the collectibility of the loans in light of historical experience, the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying collateral and prevailing economic conditions. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available.
The allowance consists of specific, general and unallocated components. The specific component relates to loans that are classified as impaired, for which an allowance is established when the discounted cash flows (or collateral value or observable market price) of the impaired loan is lower than the carrying value of that loan. The general component covers non-impaired loans and is based on historical loss experience adjusted for qualitative factors. An unallocated component is maintained to cover uncertainties that could affect management’s estimate of probable losses. The unallocated component of the allowance reflects the margin of imprecision inherent in the underlying assumptions used in the methodologies for estimating specific and general losses in the portfolio.
A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Impairment is measured on a loan by loan basis for commercial and construction loans by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s obtainable market price, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent.

Note 1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, continued
Large groups of smaller balance homogeneous loans are collectively evaluated for impairment. Accordingly, the Company does not separately identify individual consumer and residential loans for impairment disclosures.
Premises and Equipment
Land is carried at cost. Bank premises, furniture and equipment are carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization computed principally by the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:
| | | | |
| | | Years | |
Buildings and improvements | | | 20-40 | |
Furniture and equipment | | | 5-20 | |
Foreclosed Properties
Real estate properties acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are to be sold and are initially recorded at fair value less cost to sell at the date of foreclosure. After foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed by management and the real estate is carried at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. Revenue and expenses from operations and changes in the valuation allowance are included in operations on foreclosed real estate. The historical average holding period for such properties is in excess of 23 months.
Pension Plan
A noncontributory defined benefit pension plan is provided for all employees who meet eligibility requirements. To be eligible, an employee must have been hired prior to October 1, 2008, be 21 years of age and have completed one year of service. Plan benefits are based on final average compensation and years of service. The plan is funded in compliance with the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 and the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
Transfers of Financial Assets
Transfers of financial assets are accounted for as sales, when control over the assets has been surrendered. Control over transferred assets is deemed to be surrendered when (1) the assets have been isolated from the Company, (2) the transferee obtains the right (free of conditions that constrain it from taking advantage of that right) to pledge or exchange the transferred assets, and (3) the Company does not maintain effective control over the transferred assets through an agreement to repurchase them before their maturity.
Income Taxes
Provision for income taxes is based on amounts reported in the statements of income (after exclusion of non-taxable income such as interest on state and municipal securities) and consists of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes on temporary differences in the recognition of income and expense for tax and financial statement purposes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are included in the financial statements at currently enacted income tax rates applicable to the period in which the deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be realized or settled. As changes in tax laws or rates are enacted, deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted through the provision for income taxes.
Deferred income tax liability relating to unrealized appreciation (or the deferred tax asset in the case of unrealized depreciation) on investment securities available for sale is recorded in other liabilities (assets). Such unrealized appreciation or depreciation is recorded as an adjustment to equity in the financial statements and not included in income determination until realized. Accordingly, the resulting deferred income tax liability or asset is also recorded as an adjustment to equity.

Note 1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, continued
When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50% likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above is reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheet along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. Management is not aware of any material uncertain tax positions and no liability has been recognized at December 31, 2010. Interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits are classified as additional income taxes in the statement of income.
Basic Earnings per Share
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, after giving retroactive effect to stock splits and stock dividends.
Diluted Earnings per Share
The computation of diluted earnings per share is similar to the computation of basic earnings per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if dilutive potential common shares had been issued. The numerator is adjusted for any changes in income or loss that would result from the assumed conversion of those potential common shares. For the years presented, the Company has no potentially dilutive securities outstanding.
Comprehensive Income
Annual comprehensive income reflects the change in the Company’s equity during the year arising from transactions and events other than investments by, and distributions to, stockholders. It consists of net income plus certain other changes in assets and liabilities that are reported as separate components of stockholders’ equity rather than as income or expense.
Financial Instruments
Derivatives that are used as part of the asset/liability management process are linked to specific assets or liabilities and have high correlation between the contract and the underlying item being hedged, both at inception and throughout the hedge period. In addition, forwards and option contracts must reduce an exposure’s risk, and for hedges of anticipatory transactions, the significant terms and characteristics of the transaction must be identified and the transactions must be probable of occurring. All derivative financial instruments held or issued by the Bank are held or issued for purposes other than trading.
In the ordinary course of business the Company has entered into off-balance sheet financial instruments consisting of commitments to extend credit and commercial and standby letters of credit. Such financial instruments are recorded in the financial statements when they are funded or related fees are incurred or received.
The Company does not utilize interest-rate exchange agreements or interest-rate futures contracts.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) define fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The Company determines the fair values of its financial instruments based on the fair value hierarchy established per GAAP which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Investment securities available-for-sale, loans held for sale and servicing assets are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Certain impaired loans are carried at fair value on a non-recurring basis.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
The following is a summary of recent authoritative pronouncements that could impact the accounting, reporting and or disclosure of financial information by the Company.
In January 2010, compensation guidance was updated to reflect the SEC��s views of when escrowed share arrangements are considered to be compensatory. Historically the SEC staff has expressed the view that an escrowed share arrangement involving the release of shares to certain shareholders based on performance-related criteria is presumed to be compensatory. Facts and circumstances may indicate that the arrangement is an incentive made to facilitate a transaction on behalf of the company if the escrowed shares will be released or canceled without regard to continued employment. In such cases, the SEC staff generally believes that the arrangement should be recognized and measured according to its nature and reflected as a reduction of the proceeds allocated to the newly issued securities. The SEC staff believes that an escrowed share arrangement in which the shares are automatically forfeited if employment terminates is compensation. The guidance is effective upon issuance and had no impact on the Company’s financial statements.
In January 2010, fair value guidance was amended to require disclosures for significant amounts transferred in and out of Levels 1 and 2 and the reasons for such transfers and to require that gross amounts of purchases, sales, issuances and settlements be provided in the Level 3 reconciliation. The new disclosures are effective for the Company for the current year and have been reflected in the Fair Value footnote. Guidance related to subsequent events was amended in February 2010 to remove the requirement for an SEC filer to disclose the date through which subsequent events were evaluated. The amendments were effective upon issuance and had no significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.
Consolidation guidance was amended in February 2010 to defer guidance regarding the analysis of interests in variable interest entities issued in June 2009 for entities having attributes of investment companies or that apply investment company measurement principles. Disclosure requirements provided in the June 2009 guidance were not deferred. The amendments were effective January 1, 2010 and had no effective on the Company’s financial statements.
In March 2010, guidance related to derivatives and hedging was amended to exempt embedded credit derivative features related to the transfer of credit risk from potential bifurcation and separate accounting. Embedded features related to other types of risk and other embedded credit derivative features were not exempt from potential bifurcation and separate accounting. The amendments were effective for the Company on July 1, 2010 although early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect these amendments to have any impact on the financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements, continued
In July 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-20,Disclosures About the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Loss. This Update is intended to provide additional information to assist financial statement users in assessing an entity’s credit risk exposures and evaluating the adequacy of its allowance for credit losses. The amendments in this Update apply to all entities, both public and nonpublic. The amendments in this Update affect all entities with financing receivables, excluding short-term trade accounts receivable or receivables measured at fair value or lower of cost or fair value. For public entities, the disclosures as of the end of a reporting period are effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending on or after December 15, 2010. The disclosures about activity that occurs during a reporting period are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2010.
In April 2010, amended guidance was issued on the effect of a loan modification when the loan is part of a pool that is accounted for as a single asset. As a result of the amendments, modifications of loans that are accounted for within a pool do not result in the removal of those loans from the pool even if the modification of those loans would otherwise be considered a troubled debt restructuring. An entity will continue to be required to consider whether the pool of assets in which the loan is included is impaired if expected cash flows for the pool change. The amendment does not affect the accounting for loans that are not accounted for within pools. Loans accounted for individually continue to be subject to the troubled debt restructuring accounting provisions guidance. The guidance is effective for modifications of loans accounted for within pools occurring in the first interim or annual period ending on or after July 15, 2010. The amendment has no significant impact on the Company.
In April 2010, compensation guidance was updated to clarify that an employee share-based payment award with an exercise price denominated in the currency of a market in which a substantial portion of the entity’s equity securities trades should not be considered to contain a condition that is not a market, performance, or service condition. Therefore, an entity would not classify such an award as a liability if it otherwise qualifies as equity. The guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2010. The update has no effect on the Company.
In April 2010 income tax guidance was amended to incorporate text of SEC Staff AnnouncementAccounting for Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 and the Patient Protection and Affordable Health Care. Under this amendment, the SEC staff would not object to a registrant incorporating the effects of the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 when accounting for the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. This view is based in part on the SEC’s understanding that the two Acts, when taken together, represent the current health care reforms as passed by Congress and signed by the President. The SEC staff does not believe that it would be appropriate to analogize to this view in any other fact patterns. The amendment has no significant impact on the Company.
In September 2010 plan accounting for participant loans in defined contribution plans was amended to require participant loans to be classified as notes receivable from participants, which are to be segregated from plan investments. The participant loans are to be measured at their unpaid principal balance plus any accrued but unpaid interest. This guidance should be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented, effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2010. The update has no effect on the Company.
In December 2010 amendments were made to the impairment testing of goodwill and other intangibles. For reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts, an entity is required to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test if it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists. The guidance is effective for years beginning after December 15, 2010. The update has no effect on the Company. Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Restricted equity securities, carried at cost, consist of investments in stock of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta (“FHLB”) and The Federal Reserve of Richmond (Federal Reserve), which are upstream correspondents of the Bank. The FHLB requires financial institutions to make equity investments in the FHLB in order to borrow from it. The Bank is required to hold that stock so long as it borrows from the FHLB. The Federal Reserve requires banks to purchase stock as a condition of membership in the Federal Reserve System.
Investment securities with amortized cost of approximately $7.1 million and $8.4 million at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, were pledged as collateral on public deposits and for other purposes as required or permitted by law.

Management considers the nature of the investment, the underlying causes of the decline in market or fair value, the severity and duration of the decline and other evidence, on a security-by-security basis, in determining if the decline in fair value is other than temporary.
At December 31, 2010, the Company had one government-sponsored security with an aggregate unrealized loss of approximately $17 thousand, 21 state and municipal securities with an aggregate unrealized loss of approximately $209 thousand, 24 mortgaged-backed securities with an aggregate unrealized loss of approximately $104 thousand and six other securities with an aggregate unrealized loss of approximated $182 thousand. Management does not believe that gross unrealized losses, which totals 2.3% of the amortized costs of the related investment securities, represent an other-than-temporary impairment. The Company has both the ability and the intent to hold all of these securities for a period of time necessary to recover the amortized cost.

Effective October 1, 2009 the Bank terminated its single employer plan with the Virginia Bankers Association (VBA). In conjunction with this transaction, the Bank adopted the Pentegra Defined Benefit Plan for Financial Institutions (Pentegra), a multiemployer plan. All plan assets and liabilities were transferred from the VBA plan to the Pentegra Plan. GAAP states the determining factor for recording pension expense or a liability for employers participating in a multiemployer plan is the amount of the contribution required for the period.
The benefits are primarily based on years of service and earnings. The following is a summary of the plan’s funded status:

Employer contributions during the year ended 2010 were $380 thousand. The Pentegra Defined Benefit Plan has a plan year ending June 30, therefore, due to the Bank entering the plan on October 1, 2009, a payment of $127 thousand was made in 2010 for the plan year ending June 30, 2010 and a payment of $253 thousand for the plan year ending June 30, 2011 was made in December 2010, creating a prepaid amount of $126 thousand for the year ending December 31, 2010, which will be expensed by June 2011. The Company expects contributions for 2011 to be approximately $244 thousand.

Note 10. Deferred Compensation and Life Insurance
Deferred compensation plans have been adopted for certain members of the Board of Directors for future compensation upon retirement. Under plan provisions aggregate annual payments ranging from $2 thousand to $8 thousand are payable for ten years certain, generally beginning at age 65. The liability accrued for compensation deferred under the plan amounts to $22 thousand and $36 thousand at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
Charges to income are based on present value of future cash payments, discounted at 8%, and amounted to $2 thousand and $3 thousand for 2010 and 2009, respectively.
The Bank is owner and beneficiary of life insurance policies on these directors. Policy cash values, net of policy loans, totaled $74 thousand and $68 thousand at December 31, 2010 and 2009 respectively.
In 2002, the Bank adopted a supplemental executive retirement plan to provide benefits for a member of management. Under plan provisions, aggregate fixed payments of $45 thousand are payable for 20 years certain, beginning on the executive’s retirement date. The liability is calculated by discounting the anticipated future cash flows at 6.10%. The liability accrued for this obligation was $468 thousand at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Charges to income are based on changes in the cash value of insurance which funds the liability.
Note 11. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating its fair value disclosures for financial instruments:
Cash and due from banks, interest-bearing deposits in banks, federal funds sold: The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for these items approximate their fair values.
Securities: Fair values for securities, excluding restricted equity securities, are based on quoted market prices, where available. If quoted prices are not available, fair values are measured using independent pricing models or other model-based valuation techniques such as the present value of future cash flows, adjusted for the security’s credit rating, prepayment assumptions and other factors such as credit loss assumptions. The carrying values of restricted equity securities approximate fair values.
Loans receivable: For variable-rate loans that re-price frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying amounts. The fair values for other loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analysis, based on interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality. Loan fair value estimates include judgments regarding future expected loss experience and risk characteristics. The fair value of impaired loans is estimated using one of several methods, including the collateral value, market value of similar debt, enterprise value, liquidation value and discounted cash flows. The carrying amount of accrued interest receivable approximates its fair value.
Deposit liabilities: The fair values disclosed for demand and savings deposits are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair values for certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on certificates to a schedule of aggregated contractual maturities on such time deposits. The carrying amount of accrued interest payable approximates fair value.

GAAP provides a framework for measuring and disclosing fair value which requires disclosures about the fair value of assets and liabilities recognized in the balance sheet, whether the measurements are made on a recurring basis (for example, available for sale investment securities) or on a nonrecurring basis (for example, impaired loans).
Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. GAAP also establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.
The Company utilizes fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and to determine fair value disclosures. Securities available for sale are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Additionally, from time to time, the Company may be required to record at fair value other assets on a nonrecurring basis, such as loans held for sale, loans held for investment and certain other assets. These nonrecurring fair value adjustments typically involve application of lower of cost or market accounting or write-downs of individual assets.
Fair Value Hierarchy
The Company groups assets and liabilities at fair value in three levels, based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine the fair value. These levels are:
| | |
| Level 1 - | | Valuation is based upon quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets. |
| |
| Level 2 - | | Valuation is based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market. |
| |
| Level 3 - | | Valuation is generated from model-based techniques that use at least one significant assumption not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Valuation techniques include the use of option pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques. |

Note 11. Fair Value of Financial Instruments, continued
Following is a description of valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities recorded at fair value.
Investment Securities Available for Sale
Investment securities available for sale are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value measurement is based upon quoted prices, if available. If quoted prices are not available, fair values are measured using independent pricing models or other model-based valuation techniques such as the present value of future cash flows, adjusted for the security’s credit rating, prepayment assumptions and other factors such as credit loss assumptions. Level 1 securities include those traded on an active exchange such as the New York Stock Exchange, Treasury securities that are traded by dealers or brokers in active over-the counter markets and money market funds. Level 2 securities include mortgage backed securities issued by government sponsored entities, municipal bonds and corporate debt securities. Securities classified as Level 3 include asset-backed securities in less liquid markets.
Loans
The Company does not record loans at fair value on a recurring basis, however, from time to time, a loan is considered impaired and an allowance for loan loss is established. Loans for which it is probable that payment of interest and principle will not be made in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan are considered impaired. Once a loan is identified as individually impaired, management measures impairment. The fair value of impaired loans is estimated using one of several methods, including the collateral value, market value of similar debt, enterprise value, liquidation value and discounted cash flows. Those impaired loans not requiring a specific allowance represents loans for which the fair value of expected repayments or collateral exceed the recorded investment in such loans. Impaired loans where an allowance is established based on the fair value of collateral require classification in the fair value hierarchy. When the fair value of the collateral is based on an observerable market price or a current appraised value, the Company records the loan as nonrecurring Level 2. When an appraised value is not available or management determines the fair value of the collateral is further impaired below the appraised value and there is no observable market price, the Company records the loan as nonrecurring Level 3.
Foreclosed Assets
Foreclosed assets are adjusted to fair value upon transfer of the loans to other real estate owned. Real estate acquired in settlement of loans is recorded initially at estimated fair value of the property less estimated selling costs at the date of foreclosure. The initial recorded value may be subsequently reduced by additional allowances, which are charged to earnings if the estimated fair value of the property less estimated selling costs declines below the initial recorded value. Fair value is based upon independent market prices, appraised values of the collateral or management’s estimation of the value of the collateral. When the fair value of the collateral is based on an observable market price or a current appraised value, the Bank records the foreclosed asset as nonrecurring Level 2. When an appraised value is not available or management determines the fair value of the collateral is further impaired below the appraised value and there is no observable market price, the Bank records the foreclosed asset as nonrecurring Level 3.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 12. Income Taxes, continued
Deferred tax assets or liabilities are initially recognized for differences between the financial statement carrying amount and the tax basis of asset and liabilities which will result in future deductible or taxable amounts and operating loss and tax credit carry-forwards. A valuation allowance is then established, as applicable, to reduce the deferred tax asset to the level at which it is “more likely than not” that the tax benefits will be realized. Realization of tax benefits of deductible temporary differences and operating loss or credit carry-forwards depends on having sufficient taxable income of an appropriate character within the carry-back and carry-forward periods. Sources of taxable income that may allow for the realization of tax benefits include (1) taxable income in the current year of prior years that is available through carry-back, (2) future taxable income that will result from the reversal of existing taxable temporary differences, and (3) taxable income generated by future operations. There is no valuation allowance for deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2010 and 2009. It is management’s belief that realization of the deferred tax asset is more likely than not.
Note 13. Commitments and Contingencies
Litigation
Various legal claims also arise from time to time in the normal course of business, which, in the opinion of management, will have no material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk
The Company’s exposure to loan loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as for on-balance-sheet instruments. A summary of commitments at December 31 is as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
December 31, (In thousands) | | 2010 | | | 2009 | |
Commitments to extend credit | | $ | 9,594 | | | $ | 21,875 | |
Standby letters of credit | | | 503 | | | | 978 | |
| | | | | | | | |
| | $ | 10,097 | | | $ | 22,853 | |
| | | | | | | | |
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. 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. The Company evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis.
The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the party. Collateral held varies, but may include accounts receivable, crops, livestock, inventory, property and equipment, residential real estate and income producing commercial properties.
Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Those guarantees are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. Collateral held varies as specified above and is required in instances, which the Company deems necessary.

Note 13. Commitments and Contingencies, continued
Concentrations of Credit Risk
The majority of the Company’s loans, commitments to extend credit, and standby letters of credit have been granted to customers in the Company’s market area. The majority of such customers are depositors of the Bank. Investments in state and municipal securities involve governmental entities within and outside the Company’s market area. The concentrations of credit by type of loan are set forth in the Loans Receivable note. The distribution of commitments to extend credit approximates the distribution of loans outstanding. Standby letters of credit are granted primarily to commercial borrowers. The Company, as a matter of policy, does not extend credit to any single borrower or group of related borrowers in excess of approximately $2.7 million.
Although the Company has a reasonably diversified loan portfolio, a substantial portion of its debtors’ ability to honor their contracts is dependent upon economic conditions in and around Floyd, Carroll, Montgomery, Roanoke and Pulaski Counties and the Cities of Roanoke, Salem and Fairlawn, Virginia. A significant amount of the real estate loans set forth in the Loans Receivable note are secured by commercial real estate. The Company has a loan concentration relating to nonresidential buildings and real estate land developers. Total loans to this group amounted to approximately $33.6 million at December 31, 2010 and approximately $32.5 million at December 31, 2009. In addition, the Company has loan concentrations relating to hotels and motels. Total loans to this group amounted to approximately $14.6 million at December 31, 2010 and approximately $15.0 million at December 31, 2009.
The Company has cash and cash equivalents on deposit with financial institutions which exceed federally insured limits.
Note 14. Regulatory Matters
Dividends
The Company’s dividend payments are made from dividends received from the Bank. The Bank, as a Virginia banking corporation, may pay dividends only out of its retained earnings. However, regulatory authorities may limit payment of dividends by any bank when it is determined that such a limitation is in the public interest and is necessary to ensure financial soundness of the Bank.
Intercompany Transactions
The Bank’s legal lending limit on loans to the Company are governed by Federal Reserve Act 23A, and differ from legal lending limits on loans to external customers. Generally, a bank may lend up to 10% of its capital and surplus to its Parent, if the loan is secured. If collateral is in the form of stocks, bonds, debentures or similar obligations, it must have a market value when the loan is made of at least 20% more than the amount of the loan, and if obligations of a state or political subdivision or agency thereof, it must have a market value of at least 10% more than the amount of the loan. If such loans are secured by obligations of the United States or agencies thereof, or by notes, drafts, bills of exchange or bankers’ acceptances eligible for rediscount or purchase by a Federal Reserve Bank, requirements for collateral in excess of the loan amount do not apply. Under this definition, the legal lending limit for the Bank on loans to the Company was approximately $2.2 million at December 31, 2010. There were no intercompany loans at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Note 14. Regulatory Matters, continued
Capital Requirements
The Company (on a consolidated basis) and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s and Bank’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of their assets, liabilities and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. Prompt corrective action provisions are not applicable to bank holding companies.
Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the following table) of total and Tier 1 capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined) and of Tier 1 capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined). Management believes, as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, that the Company and the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.
As of December 31, 2010, the most recent notification from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized, an institution must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the following tables. There are no conditions or events since the notification that management believes have changed the Bank’s category.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis
Overview
Management’s Discussion and Analysis is provided to assist in the understanding and evaluation of Cardinal Bankshares Corporation’s financial condition and its results of operations. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements. Certain previously reported amounts have been reclassified to conform to current presentations.
Cardinal Bankshares Corporation, the parent company of Bank of Floyd, currently operates seven offices in Floyd, Montgomery, Roanoke, Carroll and Pulaski Counties of Virginia. The main office is in Floyd with a limited service office in Willis. The Roanoke office is in the Cave Spring area of Roanoke County. The West Salem office is located on West Main Street in Salem, Virginia. The Hillsville office is located in Carroll County on Route 52 in Hillsville, Virginia. Montgomery County is served by the branch in Christiansburg, Virginia. The Pulaski County office is located in the Fairlawn community.
The individual market conditions of each county vary from rural to urban with Floyd County being the most rural and Roanoke the most urban. Each has its own growth pattern which varies in intensity. Bank of Floyd and bank personnel work with local, state and federal government leaders in an effort to attract business and industry to Floyd County.
Cardinal Bankshares reported net income for the year 2010 of $969 thousand, significantly higher than the $551 thousand reported in 2009. The primary factors contributing to the increase in net income were the reduction in interest expense paid on deposits of $642 thousand versus 2009, as the bank continued to lower rates paid on deposits throughout the year, and a decrease of $565 thousand in the amount added to the Allowance for Loan Losses versus 2009. Net income per diluted share was $.63, $.27 higher than the $.36 reported for the prior year.
Net interest income, on a taxable equivalent basis, was $6.8 million, higher by $300 thousand from $6.5 million in 2009. This increase was driven primarily by the reduction in interest expense paid on deposit due to the bank lowering interest rates throughout the year in response to market conditions. Noninterest income increased $29 thousand due to increased service charges and fees coupled with increased gains on sales of securities. Noninterest expense increased $431 thousand to $5.5 million compared to $5.1 million in 2009. This increase is attributable to a reversal of pension liability in the amount of $667 thousand due to a change in accounting for the pension plan, which was a one-time adjustment taken in 2009.
Earning assets averaged $231.4 million, compared to $217.4 million in 2009, due primarily to increased deposits in banks and investments in securities as a result of increased deposits.
Interest-bearing liabilities averaged $184.0 million, compared to $172.2 million in 2009 driven by increases of $7.8 million in Savings deposits and $10.7 million in large denomination deposits. The increase in interest-bearing liabilities reflects the shift of funds from higher risk investments to an environment of less risk and greater stability.
Stockholders’ equity increased 6.6% to an average of $31.7 million in 2010 from $29.7 million in 2009. The return on average assets and average equity increased to .40% and 3.06%, respectively for 2010 compared to .24% and 1.85%, respectively, for 2009. Book value per share was $20.76 at December 31, 2010, compared to $20.00 at year-end 2009, representing an increase of 4.4%.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis
Net Interest Income
Net interest income, the primary source of the Company’s earnings, is the amount by which interest and fee income generated by earning assets exceeds the interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities. Earning assets are comprised of loans, securities, federal funds sold and interest-bearing deposits in other banks. Interest-bearing liabilities consist of deposits, federal funds purchased and securities sold under agreements to repurchase. The volume and the general level of interest rates among earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities effect net interest income. Table 1 shows the average balance sheets for each of the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008. In addition, the amounts of interest earned on earning assets, with related yields, and the interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities, together with rates, are shown. Loans placed on a nonaccrual status are included in the balances and were included in the computation of yields, upon which they had an immaterial effect. Interest on earning assets is on a taxable equivalent basis, which is computed using the federal corporate income tax rate of 34% for all three years.
Net interest income, on a taxable equivalent basis, was $6.8 million, an increase of 4.3%, or $278 thousand from the $6.5 million in 2009. The net interest margin was 2.92% for 2010, down 7 basis points from the 2.99% reported in 2009.
As illustrated in Table 2, the effect of decreased rates affecting the Company’s total interest earning assets is evident in the $364 thousand decrease in interest income due primarily to rate.
During 2010, average interest bearing liabilities expense decreased by $642 thousand due to decreased rates paid on deposits.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis
Provision for Loan Losses
The allowance for loan losses represents the amount available for credit losses inherent in the Company’s loan portfolio. Loan losses and recoveries are charged or credited directly to the allowance. Management determines the provision for loan losses required to maintain an allowance adequate to provide for any potential losses. The factors considered in making this decision are the collectibility of past due loans, the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, estimated value of underlying collateral and general economic trends. In 2010, the provision for loan losses was $661 thousand, a decrease of $565 thousand from the $1.2 million recorded in 2009. Based upon management’s periodic reviews of the loan portfolio using the previously mentioned factors, the current year increase in the provision for loan losses was felt appropriate. Management believes the provision recorded in 2010 maintains the allowance at a level adequate to cover potential losses. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans was 2.06% at year-end. This level is greater than the 1.57% ratio averaged at year-end 2010 by the Company’s peer group, commercial banks with assets ranging between $100 million and $300 million. Loan charge-offs exceeded loan recoveries by $258 thousand for 2010, compared to loan charge-offs net of recoveries of $215 thousand for 2009. Management does not anticipate any material changes in the delinquency rates or charge-offs and recoveries in connection with its normal lending activities.
Additional information regarding the Company’s allowance for loan losses is contained in Tables 13 and 14, and in the discussion concerning Analysis of the Allowance for Loan Losses.
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income consists of revenues generated from a number of different financial services and activities. Service charges on deposit accounts including charges for insufficient funds items and fees charged for nondeposit services make up a significant portion of noninterest income. Noninterest income also includes fees charged for services such as safe deposit box rentals, letters of credit, and gains realized on the sale of securities. Noninterest income totaled $683 thousand in 2010, an increase of $29 thousand over the $654 thousand recorded in 2009. The primary increase in noninterest income were derived from increased service charges on deposit accounts, other service charges and fess and net realized gains on sales of securities. The primary sources of noninterest income for the past three years are summarized in Table 3.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis
Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expense was $5.5 million for 2010, an increase of $431 thousand from the $5.1 million recorded in 2009. Salaries and employee benefits accounted for the increase due to a change in accounting method for the pension plan creating a reversal of pension liability resulting in a decrease of $667 thousand in 2009. Occupancy and equipment increased $39 thousand, legal and professional decreased $99 thousand as a result of the final disposition of the Welch case, bank franchise tax increased $15 thousand, data processing service increased $55 thousand due to upgrades and maintenance in computer hardware and software, FDIC insurance premiums decreased $98 thousand due to the expensing of 4 quarters in 2010 versus expensing 5 quarters in 2009 in order to bring FDIC expense current, foreclosed assets, net increased $50 thousand as the result of the loss on sale of OREO (other real estate owned) and other operating expenses increased $10 thousand.
Table 4 provides a further breakdown of noninterest expense for the past three years.

Income Taxes
Income tax expense is based on amounts reported in the statements of income, after adjustments for non-taxable income and non-deductible expenses, and consists of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes on temporary differences in the recognition of income and expense for tax and financial statement purposes. The deferred tax assets and liabilities represent the future Federal income tax return consequences of those differences, which will either be taxable or deductible when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled.
Income tax expense, substantially all Federal, was $(15) thousand in 2010, $(265) thousand in 2009 and $250 thousand in 2008 representing (15.7%), (92.7%) and 13.8% of income before income taxes, respectively. Cardinal Bankshares’ deferred income tax benefits and liabilities result primarily from temporary differences in provisions for credit losses, valuation reserves, depreciation, deferred compensation, deferred income, pension expense and investment security discount accretion.
Net deferred income tax benefits of approximately $1.6 million and $1.5 million at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, are included in other assets.

Loans
Average total loans were $150.2 million for 2010, an increase of $3.1 million, or 2.1% from 2009. At December 31, 2010, the actual balance of loans secured by real estate represented the most significant portion of the loan portfolio at 89.8%. Total loans secured by 1-4 family residential properties represented 20.1% of total loans at the end of 2010, while nonfarm/nonresidential properties made up 57.1% of total loans. .
Loan growth will continue to be a point of focus at Cardinal for 2011. The long-range strategic objective for meeting the Company’s loan growth aspirations will be achieved through continued hiring of additional loan officers, community involvement, expansion of the Company’s market footprint, broadening of the present array of loan products offered to include conforming fixed-rate mortgage loans, home equity lines of credit and SBA loans, and management’s strengthened efforts in offering small business financing and competively-priced products. Prudent business practices and stringent internal guidelines will continue to be followed in making lending decisions in order to balance the emphasis on loan growth with the desire to minimize exposure to loan losses.
Bank of Floyd makes both consumer and commercial loans to all neighborhoods within its market area, including the low-income and moderate-income areas. The Company’s market area is generally defined as the areas within the Virginia Counties of Floyd, Roanoke, Montgomery, Carroll and Pulaski and the Cities of Roanoke, Salem, Christiansburg and Fairlawn, Virginia. The Bank places emphasis on consumer based installment loans and commercial loans to small and medium sized businesses. Below market pricing, competition from unregulated organizations and a weak economy have also been a factor when generating new loans. The amounts of loans outstanding by type at year-end 2010 and 2009, and the maturity distribution of variable and fixed rate loans as of year-end 2010 are presented below in Table 6 and Table 7, respectively.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis
Loans, continued
During 2010 gross loans decreased $1.1 million, with Real estate construction and development accounting for the greatest decrease. Real estate construction and development decreased due to a continued weak economy coupled with excess capacity creating a soft demand for existing construction and development projects.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis
Investment Securities
The investment securities portfolio is managed to optimize the yield on excess funds while providing liquidity for unexpected deposit decreases or increased loan generation and diversification in the overall asset management of the Company. At December 31, 2010, the Company had $42.6 million in securities available for sale, compared to $36.7 million at year-end 2009. The average yield on taxable investment securities decreased from 4.53% in 2009 to 3.32% in 2010 as a result of lower yielding securities and decreasing market rates of interest.
Management of the investment portfolio has always been conservative with virtually all investments taking the form of purchases of U.S. Treasury, Government Sponsored Enterprises, Mortgage Backed Securities and issuances of State and local bond issues. All securities are high quality and high grade. Management views the investment portfolio as a source of income, and generally purchases securities with the intent of retaining them until maturity. However, adjustments in the portfolio are necessary from time to time to provide a source of liquidity to meet funding requirements for loan demand, deposit fluctuations and to manage interest rate risk. Accordingly, to meet such objectives, management may sell certain securities prior to their scheduled maturity. Table 8 presents the investment portfolio at the end of 2010 by major types of investments and maturity ranges. Actual maturities may differ from scheduled maturities in mortgage backed securities because the mortgages underlying the securities may be called or repaid prior to the scheduled maturity date. Maturities on all other securities are based on the earlier of the contractual maturity or the call date, if any.
At December 31, 2010, the market value of the investment portfolio was $57.4 million, representing a $333 thousand unrealized gain above amortized cost.
At December 31, 2009, the market value of the investment portfolio was $52.8 million, representing a $236 thousand unrealized loss below amortized cost. This compared to a market value of $45.5 million and a $638 thousand unrealized loss below amortized cost a year earlier.

Deposits
Cardinal Bankshares relies on deposits generated in its market area to provide the majority of funds needed to support lending activities and for investments in liquid assets. More specifically, core deposits (total deposits less certificates of deposits in denominations of $100,000 or more) are the primary funding source. The Company’s balance sheet growth is largely determined by the availability of deposits in the markets it serves, the cost of attracting the deposits, and the prospects of profitably utilizing the available deposits by increasing the loan or investment portfolios. The sustained low interest rate environment, coupled with an ever weakening economy and historic losses being posted by large banks have resulted in depositors shifting their emphasis from rate shopping to banks which offer soundness and security. Increased customer awareness of interest rates has added to the importance of effective interest rate management. Accordingly, management must continuously monitor market pricing and internal interest rate spreads to continue the Company’s growth and improve profitability. Cardinal Bankshares’ interest rate management goals include structuring rates in a manner that can promote both deposit and asset growth while increasing overall profitability of the Company.
Average total deposits for the year ended December 31, 2010 increased $13.4 million to $212.8 million compared to 2009. As shown in Table 9, the Company’s average interest-bearing deposits as a percent of total average deposits increased to 86.4% in 2010, compared to 86.3% in 2009. Average noninterest-bearing demand deposits decreased to $28.8 million in 2010 from $27.2 million in 2009. Average deposits for the past three years are summarized in Table 9 below.

Capital Adequacy
The Company’s capital serves to support asset growth and provide protection against loss to depositors and creditors. Cardinal Bankshares strives to maintain an optimum level of capital, commensurate with its risk profile, on which an attractive return to stockholders can be realized over both the near and long term, while serving depositors’, creditors’ and regulatory needs.
Common stock, capital surplus and retained earnings net of dividends represent the stockholders’ investment in the Company and are a key source of capital. Total stockholders’ equity was $31.9 million at December 31, 2010, an increase of $1.2 million or 3.8% compared with $30.7 million for the same period in 2009. The increase consists of net income for the year of $969 thousand plus accumulated other comprehensive gain of $456 thousand less dividends paid of $246 thousand.
The FDIC has adopted capital guidelines to supplement the existing definitions of capital for regulatory purposes and to establish minimum capital standards. Specifically, the guidelines categorize assets and off-balance sheet items into four risk-weighted categories. The minimum ratio of qualifying total capital to risk-weighted assets is 8.0% of which at least 4.0% must be Tier 1 capital, composed of common equity, retained earnings and a limited amount of perpetual preferred stock, less certain goodwill items. Cardinal Bankshares had a ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets of 20.85% at December 31, 2010 and a ratio of Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of 19.59%. Both of these ratios well exceed the capital requirements adopted by the federal regulatory agencies and continue to be equal to or above most of our peer group.
In addition, a minimum leverage ratio of Tier I capital to average total assets for the previous quarter is required by federal bank regulators, ranging from 3% to 5%, subject to the regulator’s evaluation of the Company’s overall safety and soundness. As of December 31, 2010, Cardinal Bankshares had a ratio of year-end Tier I capital to average total assets, as defined, of 12.99%.
Table 11 below sets forth summary information with respect to the capital ratios for Cardinal and the Bank at December 31, 2010 and 2009. All capital ratio levels indicate that Cardinal Bankshares and Bank of Floyd are well capitalized.

Nonperforming and Problem Assets
Certain credit risks are inherent in making loans, particularly commercial and consumer loans. Management prudently assesses these risks and strives to manage them effectively. The Bank seeks to use shorter-term loans and, although a portion of the loans may be made based upon the value of collateral, it relies primarily on the cash flow of the borrower as the source of repayment rather than the value of the collateral.
The Bank also manages its repayment risks by adhering to internal credit policies and procedures. These policies and procedures include officer and customer limits, periodic loan documentation review and follow-up on exceptions to credit policies.
Nonperforming assets, as shown in Table 12 below, increased to $8.0 million at December 31, 2010 from $5.9 million at December 31, 2009. At year-end 2010, loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing had decreased to zero from $382 thousand a year earlier. Foreclosed assets increased to $509 in 2010 from $261 thousand for 2009. Foreclosed assets at the end of 2010 consisted of a mixture of commercial property and residential property listed with an agent to be sold or in the process of being listed. Management does not intend to retain the property.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis
Analysis of the Allowance for Loan Losses
The allowance for loan losses represents the amount available for credit losses inherent in the Company’s loan portfolio. The Company performs periodic systematic reviews of its portfolio to identify these inherent losses, and to assess the overall probability of collection of the portfolio. These reviews result in the identification and quantification of loss factors, which are used in determining the amount of the allowance for loan losses. In addition, the Company also evaluates the prevailing economic and business conditions affecting individual borrowers, changes in the size and characteristics of the loan portfolio and other pertinent factors. The allowance is also subject to annual review by external auditors and regulatory examinations and determinations as to adequacy, which may take into account such factors as the methodology used to calculate the allowance, and the size of the allowance in comparison to peer companies identified by regulatory agencies. The most recent regulatory reviews were completed in March 2009 and July 2010.
In addition, management took into account not only the current state of the economy, but information from various sources, which not only expected the current economic downturn to persist, but also expected continued significant losses in commercial real estate. Geographic location was taken into account regarding the depth of economic decline, valuation for certain loans and corresponding collateral. Management also collected additional financial data from certain customers to ascertain current financial strength and cash flow Finally, management maintained the historical overall conservative approach of the Company in calculating additions to the allowance for loan losses.
The Company is committed to the early recognition of problem loans and to a conservative allowance. The Company believes the current allowance is adequate to cover inherent losses in the loan portfolio. However, the allowance may be increased or decreased in the future based upon management’s assessment of the factors outlined above. The allowance for loan losses was $3.1 million at December 31, 2010 and $2.7 million at December 31, 2009. The allowance as a percentage of period end loans was 2.06% at year-end 2010 and 1.78% at year-end 2009.
The provision for loan losses for the year ended December 31, 2010 was $661 thousand, a decrease of $565 thousand from the previous year. The loan loss reserve for 2010 increased a total of $403 thousand due to write-offs incurred of $266 thousand less expense to provision of $661 thousand and recoveries of $8 thousand. Based upon management’s periodic reviews of the loan portfolio using the previously mentioned factors, the current year decrease in the provision was considered appropriate. Management believes the provision recorded in 2010 maintains the allowance at a level adequate to cover potential losses.

The Company has allocated the allowance for loan losses based on estimates of the allowance needed for each component of the loan portfolio. The allocation of the allowance as shown in Table 14 below should not be interpreted as an indication that loan losses in future years will occur in the same proportions or that the allocation indicates future loan loss trends. The specific reserve on impaired loans for 2010 is $1.4 million and that specific reserve is set aside for the impaired loans. Furthermore, the portion allocated to each loan category is not the total amount available for future losses that might occur within such categories since the remaining allowance is a general allowance applicable to the entire portfolio.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis
Liquidity and Interest Rate Sensitivity
The principal goals of the Company’s asset and liability management strategy are the maintenance of adequate liquidity and the management of interest rate risk. Liquidity is the ability to convert assets to cash to fund depositors’ withdrawals or borrowers’ loans without significant loss. Interest rate risk management seeks to balance the effects of interest rate changes on assets that earn interest or liabilities on which interest is paid, to protect the Company from wide fluctuations in its net interest income.
Management must insure that adequate funds are available at all times to meet the needs of its customers. On the asset side of the balance sheet, maturing investments, loan payments, maturing loans, federal funds sold, and unpledged investment securities are principal sources of liquidity. On the liability side of the balance sheet, liquidity sources include core deposits, the ability to increase large denomination certificates, federal funds lines from correspondent banks, borrowings from the Federal Reserve Bank and the Federal Home Loan Bank, as well as the ability to generate funds through the issuance of long-term debt and equity.
The liquidity ratio, the level of liquid assets divided by total deposits plus short-term liabilities, is considered to be adequate by management.

Interest rate risk is the effect that changes in interest rates would have on interest income and interest expense as interest-sensitive assets and interest-sensitive liabilities either reprice or mature. Management attempts to maintain the portfolios of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities with maturities or repricing opportunities at levels that will afford protection from erosion of net interest margin, to the extent practical, from changes in interest rates. Table 15 above shows the sensitivity of the Company’s balance sheet on December 31, 2010. This table reflects the sensitivity of the balance sheet as of that specific date and is not necessarily indicative of the position on other dates. At December 31, 2010, the Company appeared to be liability-sensitive with interest-bearing liabilities exceeding earning assets, subject to changes in interest rates, for the 1-3, 4-12, and 13-60 months column. The Company in an asset-sensitive position for the Over 60 months periods.
Matching sensitive positions alone does not ensure that Cardinal has no interest rate risk. The repricing characteristics of assets are different from the repricing characteristics of funding sources. Thus, net interest income can be impacted by changes in interest rates even if the repricing opportunities of assets and liabilities are perfectly matched.
Earnings and Balance Sheet Analysis
2009 Compared to 2008 – Net interest income, on a taxable equivalent basis, was $6.5 million, lower by $529 thousand from $7.0 million in 2008. This decrease was driven decreased rates paid on the Company’s interest earning assets. Noninterest income decreased by 14.5% to $654 thousand for 2009 compared to $765 thousand for 2008 due to a decrease in income on bank owned life insurance (BOLI) due to the assets in the plan generating a significantly reduced return as a result of the declining economy and a decrease of $77 thousand in Other income due to decreased dividend income from the FBC subsidiary. Noninterest expense decreased by $255 thousand or 4.8% to $5.1 million compared to $5.3 million in 2008 due to a change in accounting method for the pension plan which resulted in a one-time income effect of $667 thousand.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis
Earning assets averaged $217.4 million, compared to $202.1 million in 2008, due to increases in Federal funds sold of $15.7 million and loans of $11.4 million. Average securities decreased $1.8 million in 2009, due largely to early calls in an effort by security issuers to take advantage of declining interest rates.
Interest-bearing liabilities averaged $172.2 million, compared to $155.6 million in 2008 driven by increases of $5.7 million in Savings deposits, $5.4 million in Time deposits and $5.3 million in Large denomination deposits. The increase in interest-bearing liabilities reflects the shift of funds from higher risk investments to an environment of less risk and greater stability.
Stockholders’ equity decreased 1.4% to an average of $29.7 million in 2009 from $30.1 million in 2008. The return on average assets and average equity decreased to .24% and 1.85%, respectively for 2009 compared to .72% and 5.17%, respectively, for 2008.

A Warning About Forward-Looking Statements
This annual report contains forward-looking statements. The Company may also make written forward-looking statements in periodic reports to the Securities and Exchange Commission, proxy statements, offering circulars and prospectuses, press releases and other written materials and oral statements made by Cardinal Bankshares’ officers, directors or employees to third parties. Statements that are not historical facts, including statements about the Company’s beliefs and expectations, are forward-looking statements. These statements are based on beliefs and assumptions of the Company’s management, and on information currently available to such management. Forward-looking statements include statements preceded by, followed by or that include the words “believes,” “expects,” “estimates,” “anticipates,” “plans,” or similar expressions. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update publicly any of them in light of new information or future events.
Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties. Management cautions the readers that a number of important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement. Such factors include, but are not limited to, the following: competitive pressures among depository and other financial institutions may increase significantly; changes in the interest rate environment may reduce margins; general economic or business conditions may lead to a deterioration in credit quality or a reduced demand for credit; legislative or regulatory changes, including changes in accounting standards, may adversely affect the business in which Cardinal Bankshares is engaged; changes may occur in the securities markets; and competitors of the Company may have greater financial resources and develop products that enable such competitors to compete more successfully than Cardinal Bankshares.
Other factors that may cause actual results to differ from the forward-looking statements include the following: the timely development of competitive new products and services by the Company and the acceptance of such products and services by customers; changes in consumer spending and savings habits; the effects of competitors’ pricing policies; the Company’s success in managing the costs associated with the expansion of existing distribution channels and developing new ones, and in realizing increased revenues from such distribution channels, including cross-selling initiatives; and mergers and acquisitions and their integration into the Company and management’s ability to manage these other risks.
Management of Cardinal Bankshares believes these forward-looking statements are reasonable; however undue reliance should not be placed on such forward-looking statements, which are based on current expectations.
