Integrity Financial Corporation
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
In management’s opinion, the financial information, which is unaudited, reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the financial information as of June 30, 2005 and for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Integrity Financial Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries: Catawba Valley Bank, First Gaston Bank of North Carolina, Integrity Securities, Inc., and Community Mortgage Corporation, collectively referred to as the “Company”. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. Operating results for the six month period ended June 30, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2005.
The organization and business of the Company, accounting policies followed by the Company and other information are contained in the notes to the consolidated financial statements filed as part of the Company’s 2004 annual report on Form 10-K as amended. This quarterly report should be read in conjunction with such annual report.
NOTE B - NET INCOME PER SHARE
Basic and diluted net income per common share is computed based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during each period after retroactively adjusting for stock dividends. Diluted net income per common share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if stock options or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the net income of the Company.
Basic and diluted net income per common share has been computed based upon net income as presented in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding or assumed to be outstanding as summarized below:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Three months ended June 30,
| | Six months ended June 30,
|
| | 2005
| | 2004
| | 2005
| | 2004
|
Weighted average number of common shares used in computing basic net income per share | | 5,216,147 | | 5,070,459 | | 5,183,846 | | 5,060,134 |
| | | | |
Effect of dilutive stock options | | 162,286 | | 121,650 | | 157,059 | | 145,504 |
| |
| |
| |
| |
|
Weighted average number of common shares and dilutive potential common shares used in computing diluted net income per share | | 5,378,433 | | 5,192,109 | | 5,340,905 | | 5,205,638 |
| |
| |
| |
| |
|
There were no antidilutive options outstanding during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2005. However, there were 11,997 antidilutive options outstanding during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2004.

On July 20, 2005, the Board of Directors of the Company declared a 10% stock dividend, payable on August 22, 2005 for shareholders of record on August 8, 2005.
NOTE C - COMPREHENSIVE INCOME
For the three months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, total comprehensive income (loss), consisting of net income and unrealized gains and losses on available for sale securities, net of taxes, was $1,735,437 and ($724,997), respectively.
For the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, total comprehensive income, consisting of net income and unrealized gains and losses on available for sale securities, net of taxes, was $2,764,106 and $723,616 respectively.
NOTE D - STOCK COMPENSATION PLANS
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123,Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, encourages all entities to adopt a fair value based method of accounting for employee stock compensation plans, whereby compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award and is recognized over the service period, which is usually the vesting period. However, it also allows an entity to continue to measure compensation cost for those plans using the intrinsic value based method of accounting prescribed by Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25,Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,whereby compensation cost is the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the stock at the grant date (or other measurement date) over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. Stock options issued under the Company’s stock option plans have no intrinsic value at the grant date and, under APB Opinion No. 25, no compensation cost is recognized for them. The Company has elected to continue with the accounting methodology in APB Opinion No. 25. Presented below are the pro forma disclosures of net income and earnings per share and other disclosures as if the fair value based method of accounting had been applied.

NOTE H - RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In April 2005, the US Securities and Exchange Commission adopted an amendment to Regulation S-X that delayed the effective date of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004)Share-Based Payment to the first fiscal period of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. The Company intends to adopt the provisions of SFAS No. 123(R) in the first quarter of 2006. If we had included the cost of employee stock option compensation in our consolidated financial statements, our net income for the quarters ended June 30, 2005 and 2004 would have decreased by approximately $59,558 and $15,642, respectively. Accordingly, the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R) is expected not to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
NOTE I – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Subsequent to June 30, one of our foreclosed properties became damaged from heavy rains brought on by the remnants of Hurricane Cindy on July 7, 2005. Due to a drainage problem, a large sink hole opened on the property which also caused damage to the building. This property is currently recorded at $900,000 on First Gaston’s balance sheet in other real estate owned. Management has obtained estimates to fix the property and to prevent any further damage to surrounding property that range from $1.2 million to $2.4 million. Some or all of this expense may be recovered through insurance and/or outstanding law suits where we have been assigned the settlement. Management is still in the process of gathering information in order to determine the financial impact.
The Company, through one of its subsidiary banks, had an option to purchase a piece of property in Corneilus, North Carolina. This property was being purchased for future branch expansion. During July 2005, the Company decided to pass on this option. There is approximately $26,000 of non-refundable capitalized expenses included in fixed assets related to this property which will be written off in the third quarter.
NOTE J – LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
The nature of the business of Integrity’s banking and other subsidiaries ordinarily results in a certain amount of litigation. The subsidiaries of Integrity are involved in various legal proceedings, all of which are considered incidental to the normal conduct of business. Management believes that the liabilities, if any, arising from these proceedings will not have a materially adverse effect on the consolidated financial position or consolidated results of operations of Integrity Financial Corporation.

MANAGEMENT’S ANNUAL REPORT
ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
The Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Company. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the Company’s financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Management has made a comprehensive review, evaluation and assessment of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004. In making its assessment of internal control over financial reporting, management used the criteria issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) inInternal Control—Integrated Framework.In accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, Management makes the following assertions:
• | | Management has implemented a process to monitor and assess both the design and operating effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. |
• | | Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. |
A material weakness is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. As of December 31, 2004, the Company did not maintain effective internal
F-8
control over the valuation of the allowance for loan losses and the related provision. This control deficiency resulted in material adjustments to the Company’s allowance for loan losses as of September 30, 2004 and December 31, 2004 in November 2004 and February 2005, respectively. Additionally, this control deficiency results in a more than remote likelihood that a material misstatement to the annual or interim Consolidated Financial Statements will not be prevented or detected. Accordingly, management has determined that this condition constitutes a material weakness. Because of this material weakness, we have concluded that the Company did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004 based on the criteria in theInternal Control – Integrated Framework.
Management’s assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s Internal Control over Financial Reporting as of December 31, 2004 has been audited by Dixon Hughes PLLC, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report (which expressed an unqualified opinion on management’s assessment and an adverse opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004).
CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
Management of the Company evaluated, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the fourth quarter of 2004. In connection with such evaluation, the Company has determined that there have been changes in internal control over financial reporting during the fourth quarter that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. As discussed in Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting, in the fourth quarter of 2004, the Company identified a material weakness in internal controls over financial reporting relating to the Company’s process of establishing the allowance for loan losses and the related provision that existed during 2004.
As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company has not fully remediated the material weakness in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting relating to the allowance for loan losses, however, the Company has taken the following remedial actions:
| • | | Strengthened the Loan Committee of the Board of Directors and the Officer Loan Committee by: |
| • | | Setting a schedule of regular meetings on at least a monthly basis; |
| • | | Implementing a process whereby all matters addressed in the Officer Loan Committee are reviewed by the Loan Committee of the Board of Directors; |
| • | | Expanding the types of reports and information provided to the Loan Committee of the Board of Directors; and |
| • | | Employing additional personnel to perform credit review and special asset oversight. |
| • | | Begun a process of designing expanded loan administration and credit review functions in order to match the level of review to the size and complexity of the Company’s lending function; |
| • | | Completed internal audits of loan and credit administration during the first four months of 2005 |
| • | | Revised and strengthened policies regarding the risk grading of loans; and |
| • | | Begun the process of hiring one or more Commercial Risk Officers with credit administration oversight responsibility at the holding company level in order to support the Company’s subsidiary banks and the Company’s centralize credit administration function. |
Other than the changes identified above, there have been no changes to the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred since the beginning of the Company’s fourth quarter of 2004 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
Integrity Financial Corporation
We have audited management’s assessment, included in the accompanying Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting, that Integrity Financial Corporation (the “Company”) did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004, because of the effect of a material weakness in the Company’s valuation of the allowance for loan losses and related provision, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Frameworkissued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on management’s assessment and an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, evaluating management’s assessment, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinions.
A company’s 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. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
A material weakness is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. The following material weakness has been identified and included in management’s assessment. As of December 31, 2004, the Company did not maintain effective internal control over the valuation of the allowance for loan losses and the related provision. This control deficiency resulted in material adjustments to the Company’s allowance for loan losses as of September 30, 2004 and December 31, 2004 in November 2004 and February 2005, respectively. Additionally, this control deficiency results in a more than remote likelihood that a material misstatement to the annual or interim consolidated financial statement will not be prevented or detected. Accordingly, management has
F-10
determined that this condition constitutes a material weakness. This material weakness was considered in determining the nature, timing, and extent of audit tests applied in our audit of the December 31, 2004 Consolidated Financial Statements, and our opinion regarding the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting does not affect our opinion on those consolidated financial statements.
In our opinion, management’s assessment that Integrity Financial Corporation did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004, is fairly stated, in all material respects, based on criteria established inInternal Control—Integrated Frameworkissued by the COSO. Also, in our opinion, because of the effect of the material weakness described above on the achievement of the objectives of the control criteria, the Company has not maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004, based on criteria established inInternal Control—Integrated Frameworkissued by the COSO.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets of Integrity Financial Corporation as of December 31, 2004 and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period then ended, and our report dated March 11, 2005, expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors
Integrity Financial Corporation and Subsidiaries
Hickory, North Carolina
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Integrity Financial Corporation and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2004 and 2003, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2004. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the 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 audits provide 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 Integrity Financial Corporation and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2004 and 2003, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2004 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

INTEGRITY FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2004 and 2003
NOTE A - ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS
On June 30, 1999, Integrity Financial Corporation (formerly United Community Bancorp) (the Company) was formed as a holding company, and on October 16, 2001 the Company elected to become a financial holding company. The Company is headquartered in Hickory, North Carolina. The Company through mergers and acquisitions now owns two state chartered banks and four wholly owned subsidiaries offering a full range of banking and investment activities.
Catawba Valley Bank was incorporated on October 3, 1995 and began banking operations on November 1, 1995. On December 31, 2002, the Company acquired Community Bancshares, Inc. located in Wilkesboro, North Carolina the holding company for Northwestern National Bank. While Northwestern was merged into Catawba Valley Bank, those branches are doing business as “Northwestern Bank, A division of Catawba Valley Bank”. Catawba Valley Bank currently operates four locations in Catawba County, three locations in Wilkes County, two locations in Iredell County and one location each in Alexander, Ashe and Watauga Counties. Catawba Valley Bank is engaged in commercial and retail banking operating under the banking laws of North Carolina and the rules and regulations of FDIC and the North Carolina Commissioner of Banks.
On December 31, 2001, First Gaston Bank of North Carolina became a wholly owned subsidiary of Integrity Financial Corporation. First Gaston Bank was incorporated on March 16, 1995 and began banking operations on July 11, 1995. First Gaston Bank currently serves Gaston County, North Carolina, and surrounding areas through its five banking offices and is engaged in commercial and retail banking, operating under the banking laws of North Carolina and the rules and regulations of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and the North Carolina Commissioner of Banks.
Integrity Securities, Inc. (formally Valley Financial Services, Inc.) is a wholly owned subsidiary of Integrity Financial Corporation whose principal business activity is that of an agent for various insurance products and non-bank investment products and services. In August of 2003, Integrity Securities opened a full service brokerage office.
Community Mortgage is a wholly owned subsidiary of Integrity Financial Corporation, resulting from the aforementioned acquisition of Community Bancshares, Inc.
The Company formed Catawba Valley Capital Trust I (“Trust I”) and Catawba Valley Capital Trust II (“Trust II”) during 2002 in order to facilitate the issuance of trust preferred securities. The Trusts are statutory business trusts formed under the laws of the state of Delaware, of which all common securities are owned by the Company. Adoption of FASB Interpretation No. (FIN) 46,Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities results in the deconsolidation of the trust preferred subsidiaries, Trust I and Trust II. Upon deconsolidation, the junior subordinated debentures issued by the Company to the trusts were included in long-term debt and the Company’s equity interests in the trusts were included in other assets. The deconsolidation of the trusts did not materially impact net income.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2004 and 2003
NOTE A - ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS (Continued)
The trust preferred securities presently qualify as Tier 1 regulatory capital and are reported in Federal Reserve regulatory reports as a minority interest in a consolidated subsidiary. The junior subordinated debentures do not qualify as Tier 1 regulatory capital. On March 1, 2005, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve issued the final rule that would retain the inclusion of trust preferred securities in Tier 1 capital of bank holding companies, but with stricter quantitative limits and clearer qualitative standards. Under the new rule, after a three-year transition period, the aggregate amount of trust preferred securities and certain other capital elements would be limited to 25 percent of tier 1 capital elements, net of goodwill less any associated deferred tax liability. The amount of trust preferred securities and certain other elements in excess of the limit could be included in tier 2 capital, subject to restrictions. The Company believes that it would still exceed the regulatory required minimums for capital adequacy purposes.
NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Integrity Financial Corporation, Catawba Valley Bank, First Gaston Bank, Integrity Securities, Inc., and Community Mortgage Corporation, collectively referred to as the “Company.” All significant intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash and amounts due from banks, federal funds sold and interest-earning deposits in banks.
Federal regulations require institutions to set aside specified amounts of cash as reserves against transaction and time deposits. As of December 31, 2004, the daily average gross reserve requirement was $5,717,000.

NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Investment Securities
Investment securities 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. Available-for-sale securities are reported at fair value and consist of bonds and notes not classified as trading securities nor as held-to-maturity securities. Unrealized holding gains and losses on available-for-sale securities are reported as a net amount in other comprehensive income. Gains and losses on the sale of available-for-sale securities are determined using the specific-identification method. Premiums and discounts are recognized in interest income using the interest method over the period to maturity.
Declines in the fair value of individual held-to-maturity and available-for-sale securities below their cost that are other than temporary would result in write-downs of the individual securities to their fair value. Such write-downs would be included in earnings as realized losses.
Loans
Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or pay-off generally are reported at their outstanding unpaid principal balances adjusted for charge-offs, the allowance for loan losses, and any deferred fees or costs on originated loans. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance. Loan origination and other fees, net of certain direct origination costs, are deferred and recognized as an adjustment of the related loan yield using the straight line method.
The accrual of interest on real estate and commercial loans is discontinued at the time the loan is 90 days delinquent unless the credit is well-secured and in process of collection. Credit card loans and other personal loans are typically charged off no later than 180 days past due. In all cases, loans are placed on nonaccrual or charged-off at an earlier date if collection of principal or interest is considered doubtful.
All interest accrued but not collected for loans that are placed on nonaccrual or charged off is reversed against interest income. The interest on these loans is accounted for on the cash-basis or cost-recovery method until qualifying for return to accrual. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.
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. The provision for loan losses is based upon management’s best estimate of the amount needed to maintain the allowance for loan losses at an adequate level. 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.

INTEGRITY FINANCIAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2004 and 2003
NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Allowance for Loan Losses (Continued)
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 the current status of the portfolio, 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. Management segments the loan portfolio by loan type in considering each of the aforementioned factors and their impact upon the level of the allowance for loan losses.
This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available. Therefore, while management uses the best information available to make evaluations, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary if conditions differ substantially from the assumptions used in making the evaluations. In addition, regulatory examiners may require the Company to recognize changes to the allowance for loan losses based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination.
Impaired Loans
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.
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.
Foreclosed Real Estate
Real estate acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure is held for sale and is initially recorded at fair value at the date of foreclosure, establishing a new cost basis. Subsequent to 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 other expense.

NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Bank Premises and Equipment
Bank premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The estimated lives for buildings are 40 years and the estimated lives for equipment and fixtures range from 3 to 20 years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the terms of the respective leases or the estimated useful lives of the improvements, whichever is shorter. Repairs and maintenance costs are charged to operations as incurred, and additions and improvements to premises and equipment are capitalized. Upon sale or retirement, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gains or losses are reflected in current operations.
Factored Accounts Receivable
The Factored Accounts Receivable Program is used by the Company to provide commercial customers with operating cash. The Company will pay between 80 and 90 percent of an invoice in cash to the customer for invoices that the customer has billed out. The customer submits the invoices to a third party processor. The Company is notified of the amount of the invoice and an interest free loan will be set up for the percentage of cash paid out. The remainder of the invoice will be split between the customer’s operating account, a reserve account and the Company’s fees charged for this program. These fees are recognized on the consolidated statements of operations in the line item “Factoring operations.” The payment of the invoice will come directly to the Company and will be applied to the loan balance. Once a month, the Company will transfer money from the reserve account to the customer’s operating account. If an invoice becomes 120 day past due, the reserve account is charged for the invoice and the loan amount is reduced.
Goodwill
Goodwill arose from the 2002 purchase of a banking branch in Dallas, North Carolina and a financial institution headquartered in Wilkesboro, North Carolina. Pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 142,Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, goodwill acquired will not be amortized but will be subject to an annual impairment test. Goodwill recorded by the Company in conjunction with the business combination amounted to $16,769,678 for purchase of the financial institution. An adjustment was made to increase goodwill by $220,316 during 2003 as the Company completed its determination of the fair value of the net assets acquired in the aforementioned business combination. The remainder of the goodwill recorded by the Company at December 31, 2004 and 2003 of $468,111 resulted from the purchase of the banking branch.

Other Intangible Assets
Other intangible assets were acquired in conjunction with the 2002 purchase of a banking branch in Dallas, North Carolina and of a financial institution headquartered in Wilkesboro, North Carolina. Subject to the provisions of SFAS No. 142Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (SFAS No. 142), such other intangible assets, which consist entirely of deposit base premiums acquired through branch and business acquisitions, are amortized over the approximate estimated lives of the related acquired deposit relationships. In accordance with the Company’s estimate of the approximate lives of the acquired deposit relationships, an 8 and 9 year straight-line amortization schedule has been established for the other intangible assets related to the branch and financial institution acquisitions, respectively. The Company will continue to evaluate amortization periods and such amortization periods could be revised downwards (but not upwards) in the future if circumstances warrant. The initial deposit premiums associated with the purchase of the branch and financial institution were $99,924 and $2,699,188, respectively. Amortization of these other intangible assets amounted to $319,177 for the years ended December 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003. The estimated amortization expense for these deposit premium intangible assets for each of the years in the five year period ending December 31, 2008 is expected to be $313,985, $312,015, $310,367, and $308,694, respectively. The Company had no other intangible assets at December 31, 2004.
Stock in Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta
As a requirement for membership, the Company’s subsidiary banks invest in stock of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta. This investment is carried at cost. Due to the redemption provisions of the FHLB, the Company estimated that fair value equals cost and that this investment was not impaired at December 31, 2004.
Income Taxes
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that the tax benefits will not be realized.
Stock Compensation Plans
SFAS No. 123,Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, encourages all entities to adopt a fair value based method of accounting for employee stock compensation plans, whereby compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award and is recognized over the service period, which is usually the vesting period. However, it also allows an entity to continue to measure compensation cost for those plans using the intrinsic value based method of accounting prescribed by Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25,Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,whereby compensation cost is the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the stock at the grant date (or other measurement date) over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. Stock options issued under the Company’s stock option plans have no intrinsic value at the grant date and, under APB Opinion No. 25, no compensation cost is recognized for them. The Company has elected to continue with the accounting methodology in APB Opinion No. 25 and, as a result, has provided pro forma disclosures of net income and earnings per share and other disclosures as if the fair value based method of accounting had been applied.

Per Share Data
Basic and diluted net income per common share is computed based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during each period after retroactively adjusting for the 10% stock dividend paid in 2003. Diluted net income per common share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if outstanding stock options were exercised.
Basic and diluted net income per common share have been computed based upon net income as presented in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding or assumed to be outstanding as summarized below:
| | | | | | |
| | 2004
| | 2003
| | 2002

For the year ended December 31, 2004, there were 11,997 options that were antidilutive since the exercise price was less than the average market price for the year. For years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, there were no options that were antidilutive.

NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Comprehensive Income
Accounting principles generally require that recognized revenue, expenses, gains and losses be included in net income. Although certain changes in assets and liabilities, such as unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities, are reported as a separate component of the equity section of the balance sheet, such items, along with net income, are components of comprehensive income. The Company’s only component of other comprehensive income relates to unrealized gains and losses on securities available for sale.
The components of other comprehensive income and related tax effects are as follows:

New Accounting Standards
On March 9, 2004, the SEC Staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 105,Application of Accounting Principles to Loan Commitments(“SAB 105”). SAB 105 clarifies existing accounting practices relating to the valuation of issued loan commitments, including interest rate lock commitments (“IRLC”), subject to SFAS No. 149 and Derivative Implementation Group Issue C13,Scope Exceptions: When a Loan Commitment is included in the Scope of Statement 133. Furthermore, SAB 105 disallows the inclusion of the values of a servicing component and other internally developed intangible assets in the initial and subsequent IRLC valuation. The provisions of SAB 105 were effective for loan commitments entered into after March 31, 2004. The adoption of SAB 105 did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements
In March 2004, the Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) released EITF Issue 03-01,The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and its Application to Certain Investments.The Issue provides guidance for determining whether an investment is other-than-temporarily impaired and requires certain disclosures with respect to these investments. The recognition and measurement guidance for other-than-temporary impairment has been delayed by the issuance of FASB Staff Position EITF 03-1-1 on September 30, 2004. The adoption of Issue 03-1 did not result in any other-than-temporary impairment.

New Accounting Standards (Continued)
In December 2003, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) issued Statement of Position (SOP) 03-3,Accounting for Loans or Certain Debt Securities Acquired in a Transfer. The SOP addresses accounting for differences between contractual cash flows and cash flows expected to be collected from an investor’s initial investment in loans or debt securities acquired in a transfer if those differences relate to a deterioration of credit quality. The SOP also prohibits companies from “carrying over” or creating a valuation allowance in the initial accounting for loans acquired that meet the scope criteria of the SOP. The SOP is effective for loans acquired in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2004. The adoption of this SOP is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123(R),Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (SFAS No. 123(R)). SFAS No. 123(R) establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services. This Statement focuses primarily on accounting for transactions in which an entity obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions. SFAS No. 123(R) requires that the fair value of such equity instruments be recognized as an expense in the historical financial statements as services are performed. Prior to SFAS No. 123(R), only certain pro forma disclosures of fair value were required. The provisions of this Statement are effective for the first interim reporting period that begins after June 15, 2005. Accordingly, we will adopt SFAS No. 123(R) commencing with the quarter ending September 30, 2005. If we had included the cost of employee stock option compensation in our consolidated financial statements, our net income for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002 would have decreased by approximately $47,027, $44,186, and $24,832, respectively. Accordingly, the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R) is expected not to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
Segment Reporting
SFAS No. 131,Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information, requires management to report selected financial and descriptive information about reportable operating segments. It also establishes standards for related disclosures about products and services, geographic areas, and major customers. Generally, disclosures are required for segments internally identified to evaluate performance and resource allocation. In all material respects, the Company’s operations are entirely within the commercial banking segment, and the consolidated financial statements presented herein reflect the results of that segment. Also, the Company has no foreign operations or customers.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts in the 2003 and 2002 financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the 2004 presentation. The reclassifications had no effect on net income or stockholders’ equity as previously reported.

The amortized cost and fair value of mortgage-backed securities by contractual maturities are not reported because the actual maturities may be, and often are, significantly different from contractual maturities.
For the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, proceeds from sales of investment securities available for sale amounted to $28,430,414 and $4,405,345, respectively. Gross realized gains in 2004 and 2003 from these sales amounted to $272,321 and $80,371, respectively. Gross realized losses in 2004 and 2003 from these sales amounted to $132,636 and $3,852, respectively.
The following tables show investments’ gross unrealized losses and fair value, aggregated by investment category and length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position, at December 31, 2004 and 2003. The unrealized losses relate primarily to debt securities that have incurred fair value reductions due to higher market interest rates since the securities were purchased. The unrealized losses are not likely to reverse unless and until market interest rates decline to the levels that existed when the securities were purchased. Since none of the unrealized losses relate to the marketability of the securities or the issuer’s ability to honor redemption obligations, none of the securities are deemed to be other than temporarily impaired.

The aggregate cost of the Company’s cost method investments totaled $1,139,159 at December 31, 2004. Investments with an aggregate cost of $654,166 were not evaluated for impairment because (a) the Company did not estimate the fair value of those investments in accordance with paragraphs 14 and 15 of Statement 107 and (b) the Company did not identify an events or changes in circumstances that may have had a significant adverse effect on the fair value of those investments. Of the remaining cost method investments, which consists of Bankers Bank stock and FHLMC Preferred Stock, the Company estimated that the fair value equaled or exceeded the cost of these investments (that is, the investments were not impaired).

Split-Dollar Life Insurance
During 2003 and 2002, the Company entered into Life Insurance Endorsement Method Split Dollar Agreements with certain officers. Under these agreements, upon death of the officer, the Company first recovers the cash surrender value of the contract and then shares the remaining death benefits from insurance contracts, which are written with different carriers, with the designated beneficiaries of the officers. The death benefit to the officers’ beneficiaries is a multiple of base salary at the time of the agreements. The Company, as owner of the policies, retains an interest in the life insurance proceeds and a 100% interest in the cash surrender value of the policies.
Defined Contribution Plan
Both Catawba Valley Bank and First Gaston Bank sponsor a contributory profit-sharing plan which provide for participation by substantially all employees. Participants may make voluntary contributions resulting in salary deferrals in accordance with Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. The plans provide for employee contributions up to 15% of the participant’s annual salary and an employer contribution of up to 100% matching of the first 6% of pre-tax salary contributed by each participant. The Banks may make additional discretionary profit sharing contributions to the plan on behalf of all participants. Amounts deferred above the first 6% of salary are not matched by the Banks. Expenses related to these plans for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002 were $335,080, $266,888 and $174,076 respectively.
Stock Option Plans
The Company has an incentive stock option plan (the “Employee Plan”) which is intended to attract and induce continued employment of key employees and to provide them an opportunity to acquire a proprietary interest in the Company and to align their long-term interests with that of the stockholders. Non-employee directors do not participate in the Employee Plan. The exercise price of each share of common stock covered by an option is equal to the fair market value per share of the Company’s common stock on the date the option is granted. These qualified options have a vesting schedule which provides that 20% of the options granted will vest on the first annual anniversary of the date of the grant and 20% will vest on each subsequent annual anniversary date, so that the options will be completely vested at the end of five years after the date of grant. Options under the Employee Plan expire ten years after the grant date.
The Company also has a nonqualified stock option plan for directors (the “Director Plan”) which is intended to attract capable individuals to serve on the Boards of Directors of the Company and its bank subsidiaries. Employee directors do not participate in the Director Plan. The exercise price of each share of common stock covered by an option is equal to the fair market value per share of the Company’s common stock on the date the option is granted. Options under the Director Plan fully vest at the date of grant and expire ten years after the grant date.

NOTE J - JUNIOR SUBORDINATED DEFERRABLE INTEREST DEBENTURES
In 2004, the Company adopted FIN 46R, with no restatement of prior periods, resulting in the deconsolidation of Catawba Valley Capital Trust I and Catawba Valley Capital Trust II (the “Trusts”), which were created for the sole purpose of issuing trust preferred securities. The implementation of FIN 46R resulted in the Company’s $310,000 investment in the common equity of the Trusts being included in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as other assets with a corresponding increase in long term debt. The Company is now recording greater interest expense and income received from the Trusts with no effect on net income. The income and interest expense received from and paid to the Trusts, respectively, is being included in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income as other non-interest income and expense. The increases to other non-interest income and expense for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively, would not have been material had FIN 46R been implemented on January 1, 2002.
The Company has Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debentures (the “Junior Subordinated Debentures”) outstanding. The Junior Subordinated Debentures were issued from funds invested from the sale of trust preferred securities by Catawba Valley Capital Trust I and Catawba Valley Capital Trust II, both of which are wholly owned by the Company.
On December 20, 2002, Catawba Valley Capital Trust I (“Trust I”) and Catawba Valley Capital Trust II (“Trust II”) each issued $5 million of preferred securities. The preferred securities issued by Trust I pay cumulative cash distributions quarterly at a rate equal to the three-month LIBOR plus 335 basis points. The preferred securities issued by Trust II pay cumulative cash distributions quarterly at a rate of 6.85%. The dividends paid to holders of the preferred securities, which are recorded as interest expense, are tax deductible for income tax purposes. The preferred securities are redeemable on December 20, 2007. Redemption is mandatory at December 30, 2032.

The proceeds of the preferred securities were invested by Trust I and Trust II in junior subordinated debentures of the Company due December 30, 2032. The Company fully and unconditionally guarantees the preferred securities through the combined operation of the debentures and other related documents. The Company’s obligations under these guarantees are unsecured and subordinate to senior and subordinated indebtedness of the Company.

NOTE K - OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISK
The Company’s wholly owned bank subsidiaries are parties to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheet. The contract or notional amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of involvement the Banks have in particular classes of financial instruments. The Banks use the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as they do for on-balance sheet instruments.
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of conditions established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since some of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Banks evaluate each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained if deemed necessary by the Banks upon extension of credit is based on management’s credit evaluation of the borrower. Collateral obtained varies but may include real estate, stocks, bonds, and certificates of deposit.
A summary of the contract amount of the Banks’ exposure to off-balance sheet risk as of December 31, 2004 is as follows:
Financial instruments whose contract amounts represent credit risk (dollars in thousands):
| | | |
Undisbursed lines of credit | | $ | 115,010 |
Standby letters of credit | | | 950 |
Commitments to purchase or build | | | 900 |

NOTE M - REGULATORY RESTRICTIONS
The Company (on a consolidated basis) and the Banks are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s and Banks’ financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and the Banks 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.

NOTE M - REGULATORY RESTRICTIONS (Continued)
The Banks, as North Carolina banking corporations, may pay cash dividends only out of undivided profits as determined pursuant to North Carolina General Statutes. However, regulatory authorities may limit payment of dividends by any bank when it is determined that such limitation is in the public interest and is necessary to ensure a bank’s financial soundness.
Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and its bank subsidiaries 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, 2004 and 2003, that the Company and the Banks met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.
As of December 31, 2004, the most recent notification from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation categorized both Catawba Valley Bank and First Gaston 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. Since the most recent notification from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, management has determined that Catawba Valley Bank is adequately capitalized, but is no longer well capitalized. There are no conditions or events since the most recent notification from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation that management believes have changed First Gaston Bank’s capital category. The Company’s and the Bank’s actual capital amounts and ratios as of December 31, 2004 and 2003 are also presented in the table.

NOTE N - DISCLOSURES ABOUT FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Financial instruments include cash and due from banks, interest-earning deposits with banks, federal funds sold, investment securities, loans, factored accounts receivable, stock in the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta, deposit accounts and borrowings, which consist of Federal Home Loan Bank advances, securities sold under agreement to repurchase, federal funds purchased, and trust preferred securities. Fair value estimates are made at a specific moment in time, based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the Company’s entire holdings of a particular financial instrument. Because no active market readily exists for a portion of the Company’s financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments, and other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and, therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value:
Cash and Due from Banks, Interest-Earning Deposits With Banks, and Federal Funds Sold
The carrying amounts for cash and due from banks, interest-earning deposits with banks, and federal funds sold approximate fair value because of the short maturities of those instruments.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2004 and 2003
NOTE N - DISCLOSURES ABOUT FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Continued)
Investment Securities
Fair value for investment securities equals quoted market price if such information is available. If a quoted market price is not available, fair value is estimated using quoted market prices for similar securities.
Loans
For certain homogenous categories of loans, such as residential mortgages, fair value is estimated using the quoted market prices for securities backed by similar loans, adjusted for differences in loan characteristics. The fair value of other types of loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities.
Factored Accounts Receivable
The fair values for factored accounts receivable are estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis using yield rates computed on transactions with similar arrangements.
Stock in Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta
The fair value FHLB stock approximates carrying value, based on the redemption provisions of the Federal Home Loan Bank.
Bank Owned Life Insurance
The investment in bank owned life insurance represents the cash value of the policies at December 31, 2004 and 2003. The rates are adjusted annually thereby minimizing market fluctuations.
Deposits
The fair value of non-interest bearing demand, money market, NOW and savings deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of time deposits is estimated based on discounting expected cash flows using the rates currently offered for instruments of similar remaining maturities.
Borrowings
The fair values are based on discounting expected cash flows at the interest rate for debt with the same or similar remaining maturities and collateral requirements.
Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk
With regard to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk discussed in Note K, it is not practicable to estimate the fair value of future financing commitments.

NOTE P - ACQUISITION OF COMMUNITY BANCSHARES, INC.
On December 31, 2002, the Company acquired Community Bancshares, Inc. (“Community”) in Wilkesboro, North Carolina, the holding company for Northwestern National Bank (“Northwestern”) and Community Mortgage Corporation (“Community Mortgage”). The Company’s board of directors believed that the merger was in the best interests of Integrity (formally United Community) and its shareholders because it presented an important opportunity for the Company to increase shareholder value through growth by acquiring a profitable, well-managed financial institution in a market that is a logical expansion for Integrity’s subsidiary bank, Catawba Valley Bank. Northwestern was originally charted in 1992, and its market area consists of the communities in the counties of Wilkes, Watauga, Alexander, and Ashe. Northwestern is primarily engaged in the business of obtaining deposits and providing commercial, consumer and real estate loans. Community Mortgage is engaged in mortgage related activities.
Each Community share of common stock was exchanged for 1.2575 shares of Integrity Financial Corporation common stock or $21.00, or in a combination of 70% Integrity common stock and 30% cash. The Company acquired one hundred percent of Community’s common shares. As a result of the acquisition, the Company issued 1,465,454 shares of its common stock valued at $16.70. The total purchase price of $36.2 million consisted of $10.7 million in cash, $24.5 million in common stock, and $1.0 million in vested options issued in exchange for outstanding options of Community. The transaction was accounted for under the purchase method and was intended to qualify as a tax-free reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code.
The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed at December 31, 2002 (dollars in thousands):
