The unrealized losses in the investment portfolio as of June 30, 2006 are considered temporary and are a result of general market fluctuations that occur daily. The unrealized losses are from 89 securities that are all of investment grade, backed by insurance, U.S. government agency guarantees, or the full faith and credit of local municipalities throughout the United States. Market prices change daily and are affected by conditions beyond the control of the Company. Investment decisions are made by the management group of the Company and reflect the overall liquidity and strategic asset/liability objectives of the Company. Management analyzes the securities portfolio frequently and manages the portfolio to provide an overall positive impact to the Company’s income statement and balance sheet. As management has the ability and intent to hold debt securities for the foreseeable future, no declines are deemed to be other than temporary.

| Note 7. | Recent Accounting Pronouncements |
In March 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 156, "Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets an amendment of FASB Statement 140" (Statement 156). Statement 156 amends Statement 140 with respect to separately recognized servicing assets and liabilities. Statement 156 requires an entity to recognize a servicing asset or liability each time it undertakes an obligation to service a financial asset by entering into a servicing contract and requires all servicing assets and liabilities to be initially measured at fair value, if practicable. Statement 156 also permits entities to subsequently measure servicing assets and liabilities using an amortization method or fair value measurement method. Under the amortization method, servicing assets and liabilities are amortized in proportion to and over the estimated period of servicing. Under the fair value measurement method, servicing assets are measured at fair value at each reporting date and changes in fair value are reported in net income for the period the change occurs.
Adoption of Statement 156 is required as of the beginning of fiscal years beginning subsequent to September 15, 2006. Earlier adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an entity's fiscal year, provided the entity has not yet issued financial statements, including interim financial statements.
The Company does not expect the adoption of Statement 156 at the beginning of 2007 to have a material impact.

This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes to the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements included in this quarterly report and the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
General
The financial condition and results of operations presented in the Consolidated Financial Statements, accompanying Notes to Interim Consolidated Financial Statements and management's discussion and analysis are, to a large degree, dependent upon the accounting policies of the Company. The selection and application of these accounting policies involve judgments, estimates, and uncertainties that are susceptible to change.
Presented below is a discussion of those accounting policies (Critical Accounting Policies) that management believes are the most important to the portrayal and understanding of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. The Critical Accounting Policies require management's most difficult, subjective and complex judgments about matters that are inherently uncertain. In the event that different assumptions or conditions were to prevail, and depending upon the severity of such changes, materially different financial condition or results of operations is a reasonable likelihood.
Allowance for Loan Losses
The Company monitors and maintains an allowance for loan losses to absorb an estimate of probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio. The Company maintains policies and procedures that address the systems of controls over the following areas of maintenance of the allowance: the systematic methodology used to determine the appropriate level of the allowance to provide assurance that the systems are maintained in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; the accounting policies for loan charge-offs and recoveries; the assessment and measurement of impairment in the loan portfolio; and the loan grading system.
The Company evaluates various loans individually for impairment as required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 114,Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan, and SFAS No. 118,Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan - Income Recognition and Disclosures.Loans evaluated individually for impairment include non-performing loans, such as loans on non-accrual, loans past due by 90 days or more, restructured loans and other loans selected by management. The evaluations are based upon discounted expected cash flows or collateral valuations. If the evaluation shows that a loan is individually impaired, then a specific reserve is established for the amount of impairment. If a loan evaluated individually is not impaired, then the loan is assessed for impairment under SFAS No. 5,Accounting for Contingencies, with a group of loans that have similar characteristics.
For loans without individual measures of impairment, the Company makes estimates of losses for groups of loans as required by SFAS No. 5. Loans are grouped by similar characteristics, including the type of loan, the assigned loan grade and the general collateral type. A loss rate reflecting the expected loss inherent in a group of loans is derived based upon estimates of default rates for a given loan grade, the predominant collateral type for the group and the terms of the loan. The resulting estimate of losses for groups of loans are adjusted for relevant environmental factors and other conditions of the portfolio of loans, including: borrower and industry concentrations; levels and trends in delinquencies, charge-offs and recoveries; changes in underwriting standards and risk selection; level of experience, ability and depth of lending management; and national and local economic conditions.
The amount of estimated impairment for individually evaluated loans and groups of loans is added together for a total estimate of loan losses. This estimate of losses is compared to the allowance for loan losses of the
11
Company as of the evaluation date and, if the estimate of losses is greater than the allowance, an additional provision to the allowance would be made. If the estimate of losses is less than the allowance, the degree to which the allowance exceeds the estimate is evaluated to determine whether the allowance falls outside a range of estimates. If the estimate of losses is below the range of reasonable estimates, the allowance would be reduced by way of a credit to the provision for loan losses. The Company recognizes the inherent imprecision in estimates of losses due to various uncertainties and variability related to the factors used, and therefore a reasonable range around the estimate of losses is derived and used to ascertain whether the allowance is too high. If different assumptions or conditions were to prevail and it is determined that the allowance is not adequate to absorb the new estimate of probable losses, an additional provision for loan losses would be made, which amount may be material to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Balance Sheet
Total assets for the Company increased to $280.1 million at June 30, 2006 compared to $273.1 million at December 31, 2005, representing an increase of $7.1 million or 2.6%. Total loans at June 30, 2006 were $203.3 million, an increase of $4.8 million from the December 31, 2005 amount of $198.4 million. Net loans as a percent of total assets were 72.6% at June 30, 2006 which is the same at December 31, 2005. Investment securities increased to $49.1 million at June 30, 2006 or 17.6% of total assets, which is an increase of $1.2 million from $47.9 million at December 31, 2005. Meanwhile, the federal funds sold increased $2.8 million from $513 thousand at December 31, 2005 to $3.3 million at June 30, 2006. The Company was successful in selling $200 thousand in OREO properties, which represented all OREO properties recorded on its books, by the end of the second quarter of 2006.
Allowance for Loan Losses
The allowance for loan losses at June 30, 2006 was $1.988 million compared to $1.954 million at December 31, 2005. The allowance for loan losses was 0.97% of total loans outstanding at June 30, 2006 compared to 0.98% of total loans outstanding at December 31, 2005, a decrease of 1 basis point. During the six months ending June 30, 2006, the Bank charged off $42 thousand in loans, recovered $42 thousand from previous write-offs, and added $34 thousand to the allowance for possible losses anticipated from the automatic overdraft program. As a result of the current level of the allowance and the asset quality of the loan portfolio, Management did not make any further addition to the allowance for loan losses during the first six months of 2006. This compares favorably to the $196 thousand provided to the allowance in the first six months of 2005.
On April 5, 2006, the Bank entered into a settlement agreement for claims the Bank held against the makers of a commercial loan, which was charged-off in the first quarter of 2005. Under the terms of the settlement, the Bank agreed to accept $365 thousand to satisfy the Bank’s claims. In consideration of the 90-day preference period associated with bankruptcy laws, Management placed these funds in escrow until the end of the preference period, or August 4, 2006. On this date, Management recognized these proceeds as a loan loss recovery and the funds will be credited to the allowance for loan losses. The impact on the allowance for loan losses will be determined by Management during the course of the third quarter and the effect reported as of September 30, 2006.
Management also believes the allowance for loan losses is adequate to cover credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio at June 30, 2006. Loans classified as loss, doubtful, substandard or special mention are adequately reserved for and are not expected to have a material impact beyond what has been reserved.
Criticized loans are defined by management as loans which may or may not be currently accruing interest and, while they are not classified as impaired loans, management has computed probable loss amounts should the
loans not perform as originally agreed. Criticized loan balances at June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005 totaled $2.9 million and $2.3 million, respectively. At June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, $442 thousand
and $195 thousand, respectively, was included in the allowance for loan losses to cover for the possible losses on these loans.
12
The Company had $1.4 million in non-accruing loans at June 30, 2006 compared to $1.6 million at June 30, 2005, a decrease of $0.2 million or 12.5%.
Deposits
Total deposits of $238.2 million at June 30, 2006 represented an increase of $4.9 million from $233.3 million at December 31, 2005. Total certificates of deposit at June 30, 2006 were $130.9 million, up $3.6 million from $127.3 million at December 31, 2005. Non-interest bearing deposits totaled $38.3 million at June 30, 2006, which is an 8.5% increase from $35.3 million at December 31, 2005. Interest-bearing deposits accounted for 83.9% of total deposits at June 30, 2006 as compared to 84.9% of total deposits at December 31, 2005. The trend of lower interest-bearing deposits as a percentage of total deposits assists the Company in managing interest costs in light of higher trending short-term interest rates.
Stockholders’ Equity
Stockholders’ equity was $33.9 million at June 30, 2006 compared to $33.4 million at December 31, 2005. The book value per common share was $13.90 at June 30, 2006 compared to $13.70 at December 31, 2005. For the first six months of 2006, the Board of Directors of the Company paid two quarterly cash dividends totaling $781 thousand, or $0.32 per share. On June 21, 2006, the Board of Directors approved a cash dividend of 16 cents per outstanding share for a total dividend payment of $390 thousand, and to be paid to shareholders on July 14, 2006. Net unrealized losses on available for sale securities increased $435 thousand from $781 thousand at December 31, 2005 to $1.2 million at June 30, 2006.
Net Income
The Company reported net income for the six months ended June 30, 2006 of $1.7 million or $0.68 per basic and diluted share compared to $1.4 million or $0.57 per basic and diluted share for the first six months of 2005, an increase of 19.4%.
For the three months ended June 30, 2006, the Company reported net income of $884 thousand as compared to $685 thousand for the same period in 2005, an increase of 29.0%. Income per basic and diluted share was $0.36 for the three months ended June 30, 2006, as compared to $0.28 per basic and diluted share for the same period in 2005.
The Company had annualized returns on average assets of 1.21% and an annualized return on average equity of 9.85% for the six months ended June 30, 2006, as compared to returns on average assets and average equity of 1.02% and 8.54%, respectively, for the same period in 2005.
The increase in net income for the six months ended June 30, 2006 as compared to the same period for 2005 is attributable to several factors, including an increase of 5.8% in net interest income, and a decrease of $252 thousand in loan loss provision. The average loan balances for the first six months of 2006 increased 3.9% over the first six months of 2005 and the loan yield increased 63 basis points from the comparable period in 2005. The average investment securities balance for the first half of 2006 remained relatively unchanged from the same period in 2005 at $46.6 million for 2006 and $46.8 million for 2005; however, the yield earned for the period in 2006 was 4.12% as compared to 3.87% for 2005, or an increase of 25 basis points from the year-earlier period. The yield on earning assets for the first six months of 2006 was 6.28%, an increase of 65 basis points from the 5.63% yield reported in the first six months of 2005. The net interest margin increased by 21 basis points to 4.27% for the first six months of 2006 as compared to a margin of 4.06% for the same period in 2005. A significant component of the Company’s increase in the net interest margin has been the ability to attract and retain low cost core deposits, especially non-interest bearing demand deposit accounts. Interest bearing deposit accounts and short-term borrowings were also affected by higher short term interest rate increases with the time deposit accounts increasing 71 basis points and short-term borrowings increasing 131 basis points over the first six months of 2005. Average time deposit balances were stable for the first half of 2006 at $129.4 million as compared to $129.1 million for the prior year period, while short-term borrowings increased nearly three-fold
13
from an average of $1.3 million during the first half of 2005 to an average of $5.2 million for the first half of 2006. Offsetting these rate increases was a 5.3% increase in average non-interest bearing deposit balances during the first six months of 2006 versus the year-earlier period.
Continued higher short term interest rates, and competition for deposits, and the ability to continue growing non-interest bearing demand deposits will continue to put pressure on the cost of funds, which may not be offset by further increases in interest rates on earning assets. As a result of such potential margin compression, the Company’s earnings could be adversely impacted.
The Company did provide $34 thousand for possible loan losses for the first six months in 2006 as compared to $196 thousand for the same period in 2005. The addition to the allowance for the first half of 2006 is largely the result of possible losses from the automatic overdraft protection program.
Net Interest Income
Net interest income is the Company’s primary source of earnings and represents the difference between interest and fees earned on loans, investments and other earning assets and the interest expense paid on deposits and other interest bearing liabilities. The cost of funds represents interest expense on deposits and other borrowings. Non-interest bearing deposits and capital are other components representing funding sources. Changes in the volume and mix of earning assets and funding sources, along with the changes in yields earned and rates paid, determine changes in net interest income.
Net interest income totaled $5.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to $5.1 million for the same period in 2005. For the three months ended June 30, 2006, net interest income was $2.8 million as compared to $2.5 million for the same period in 2005, a 9.6% increase.
The results for the first six months of 2006 reflect the effects of ongoing increases in short-term interest rates. The yield on earning assets and for interest-bearing liabilities for the first six months of 2006 was 6.28% and 2.49%, respectively, which is an increase of 65 basis points and 59 basis points, respectively, for the same period in 2005. Management is pleased with the steady increase in non-interest bearing deposit balances during the first six months of 2006, and it is working diligently to control the impact of higher short-term rates on retaining and attracting certificates of deposits.
The table on the following page labeled “Average Balances, Interest Yields and Rates, and Net Interest Margin” presents the average balances and rates of the various categories of the Company’s assets and liabilities. Included in the table is a measurement of interest rate spread and margin. Interest rate spread is the difference (expressed as a percentage) between the interest rate earned on earning assets less the interest expense on the interest bearing liabilities. While net interest spread provides a quick comparison of earnings rates versus the cost of funds, management believes that margin provides a better measurement of performance. Margin includes the effect of non-interest bearing sources in its calculation and is net interest income expressed as a percentage of average earning assets.

Non-interest Income
Non-interest income increased 10.9% to $1.109 million for the first half of 2006 compared to $1.000 million for the same period in 2005. The Company recognized a $77 thousand gain on the sale of two OREO properties during the first half of 2006. During the same period in 2005, the Company had recognized a loss of $2 thousand in OREO sales. As of June 30, 2006, the Company did not hold any OREO properties. Below is a representation of the changes to the significant components:
(In thousands) | Six months ended | |
Non-interest Income | June 30, 2006 | June 30, 2005 | % Change |
Service charges on deposit accounts | $ 634 | $ 638 | (0.6)% |
Net gain on sales of loans | 45 | 33 | 36.4% |
Net gain (loss) on sale of other real estate owned | 77 | (2) | 3,950% |
Income from bank owned life insurance | 127 | 127 | 0.0% |
Other (including ATM fees, etc.) | 226 | 204 | 10.8% |
Total non-interest income | $ 1,109 | $ 1,000 | 10.9% |
| • | Service charges on deposit accounts decreased 0.6% or $4 thousand primarily as the result of lower overdraft fees, due in part to daily maximum limits being placed for the automatic overdraft program, and consumers moving from fee-generating products to free checking products. |
| • | Other operating income increased $22 thousand primarily due to an increase in ATM fees and other service fees charged. |
Non-interest Expense
Non-interest expense includes employee-related costs, occupancy and equipment expense and other overhead costs. Non-interest expense for the first half of 2006 increased $98 thousand to $4.1 million as compared to $4.0 million for the first six months of 2005, or an increase of 2.4%. Management has been working, over the last 18 months, to establish stricter controls over non-interest expenses, and these efforts are being realized by the moderate increases in non-interest expenses over the previous year. The following table outlines the changes in significant components:
(In thousands) | Six months ended | |
Non-interest Expense | June30, 2006 | June 30, 2005 | % Change |
Salaries and employee benefits | $ 2,360 | $ 2,248 | 4.9% |
Net occupancy expense | 264 | 217 | 21.6% |
Equipment expense | 372 | 407 | (8.6)% |
Other operating expense | 1,140 | 1,166 | (2.2)% |
Total non-interest expense | $ 4,136 | $ 4,038 | 2.4% |
| • | Salaries and employee benefits increased $112 thousand as a result of increased salary expense attributed to additional staffing for branch expansion, cost of living increases and benefit expense increases from higher plan premiums, employer-match costs for the 401-K Plan and the employee incentive program. |
| • | Net occupancy expense increased $47 thousand primarily a result of depreciation expense related to the Colonial Heights branch, increases in building repairs and maintenance and real estate taxes. |
| • | Equipment expense decreased $35 thousand primarily as a result of lower depreciation expenses, due to equipment becoming fully depreciated. |

Liquidity
Liquidity represents an institution’s ability to meet present and future obligations through either the sale or maturity of existing assets or the acquisition of additional funds through liability management. The Company maintains its liquidity position through cash on hand, correspondent bank balances and investment in federal funds sold, by maintaining its investment portfolio in available for sale status and through the availability of borrowing lines at the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta, the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond and at its correspondent banks. The Company monitors its liquidity position on a regular basis and continuously adjusts its assets to maintain adequate liquidity levels. The Company has established satisfactory liquidity targets, monitors its liquidity position daily, and reports its liquidity ratios to the Board of Directors on a monthly basis. We consider our sources of liquidity to be sufficient to meet our estimated needs.
Capital Resources
Stockholders’ equity at June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005 was $33.9 million and $33.5 million, respectively. Total number of common shares outstanding at June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005 was 2,440,750.
At June 30, 2006, the Company’s Tier 1 and total risk-based capital ratios were 18.4% and 19.5%, respectively, compared to 18.8% and 19.8% at December 31, 2005. The Company’s leverage ratio was 12.6% at June 30, 2006 compared to 12.3% at December 31, 2005. The Bank’s capital structure places it well above the regulatory guidelines, which affords the Company the opportunity to take advantage of business opportunities while ensuring that it has the resources to protect against risk inherent in its business.

| Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk |
In order to more closely measure interest sensitivity, the Company uses earnings simulation models on a quarterly basis. These models utilize the Company’s financial data and various management assumptions as to growth and earnings to forecast a base level of net interest income and earnings over a one-year period. This base level of earnings is then shocked assuming a sudden increase or decrease in interest rates.
There have been no changes that would significantly alter the disclosure previously reported as of December 31, 2005. For more information, see the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005.
| Item 4. | Controls and Procedures |
Disclosure controls and procedures are our controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the Company evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. Based on that evaluation, the Company has concluded that these controls and procedures are effective. In addition, there was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended June 30, 2006 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
