AMERICAN NATIONAL BANKSHARES INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The consolidated financial statements include the amounts and results of operations of American National Bankshares Inc. (the “Corporation”) and its wholly owned subsidiary, American National Bank and Trust Company (“the Bank”).
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the Corporation’s financial position as of June 30, 2006; the consolidated statements of income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005; the consolidated statements of changes in shareholders’ equity for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005; and the consolidated statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005. Operating results for the six month periods ended June 30, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2006. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period balances to conform to the current period presentation.
NOTE 2 - TRUST PREFERRED SECURITIES
On April 7, 2006, AMNB Statutory Trust I, a Delaware statutory trust (the “Trust”) and a newly formed, wholly owned subsidiary of the Corporation, issued $20,000,000 of preferred securities (the “Trust Preferred Securities”) in a private placement pursuant to an applicable exemption from registration. The Trust Preferred Securities mature on June 30, 2036, but may be redeemed at the Corporation’s option beginning on June 30, 2011. The Trust Preferred Securities require quarterly distributions by the Trust to the holder of the Trust Preferred Securities at a fixed rate of 6.66%. Effective June 30, 2011, the rate will reset quarterly at the three-month LIBOR rate plus 1.35%. Distributions are cumulative and will accrue from the date of original issuance, but may be deferred by the Corporation from time to time for up to twenty consecutive quarterly periods. The Corporation has guaranteed the payment of all required distributions on the Trust Preferred Securities.
The proceeds of the Trust Preferred Securities received by the Trust, along with proceeds of $619,000 received by the Trust from the issuance of common securities (the “Trust Common Securities”) by the Trust to the Corporation, were used to purchase $20,619,000 of the Corporation’s junior subordinated debt securities (the “Debt Securities”), issued pursuant to a Junior Subordinated Indenture (the “Indenture”) entered into between the Corporation and Wilmington Trust Company, as trustee (the “Trustee”). The proceeds of the Debt Securities are being used to fund the cash portion of the merger consideration to the former shareholders of Community First Financial Corporation in connection with the Corporation’s acquisition of that company, and for general corporate purposes.
The Debt Securities mature thirty years from issuance, but the Corporation may redeem them, in whole or in part, after five years. The Debt Securities bear interest at a fixed rate of 6.66%. After five years, the rate will become a variable rate that will reset quarterly at the three-month LIBOR rate plus 1.35%.
NOTE 3 - STOCK BASED COMPENSATION
In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“FAS”) No. 123R, “Share Based Payment.” FAS No. 123R requires public companies to recognize compensation expense related to stock-based compensation awards, such as stock options and restricted stock, in their income statements over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for such award. FAS No. 123R eliminates the choice to account for employee stock options under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" (“APB 25”). The Corporation adopted FAS No. 123R effective January 1, 2006 using the modified prospective method and as such, results for prior periods have not been restated.
There were no stock options granted in the first six months of 2006 and all options were fully vested at December 31, 2005. Therefore, no compensation expense was recorded in the period.
Prior to the implementation of FAS 123R, the Corporation applied APB 25 and related interpretations in accounting for stock options. Under APB No. 25, no stock based compensation expense was recorded, as all options granted had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant.
FAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” was issued in October 1995 to establish accounting and reporting standards for stock based employee compensation plans. FAS No. 123 required measurement of compensation expense provided by stock based plans using a fair value based method of accounting, and either recognition of compensation expense in the statement of income or disclosure in the notes to the financial statements. There were no stock options granted in the first six months of 2005 and all options were fully vested at December 31, 2004. Therefore, had the fair value recognition provisions of FAS No. 123 been adopted, there would have been no impact on net income.
There were no tax benefits associated with stock option activity during the first six months of 2006 or 2005. Under FAS 123R, a company may only recognize tax benefits for stock options that ordinarily will result in a tax deduction when the option is exercised (“non-statutory” options). The Corporation has no non-statutory stock options.
Stock option plan activity for the six months ended June 30, 2006 is summarized below:

Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment quarterly, and more frequently when economic or market concerns warrant such evaluation. Consideration is given to the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and the intent and ability of the Bank to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value. At June 30, 2006, the Bank held one hundred two debt securities having continuous unrealized loss positions for more than twelve months. Ratings for these debt securities were as follows: Forty-five of the federal agency bonds and mortgage-backed securities were rated AAA; forty-nine of the state and municipal bonds were rated AAA, five were rated AA, and one was rated A; and two corporate bonds were rated A. The unrealized losses are attributable to interest rate changes and not credit concerns of the issuer. The Corporation has the intent and ability to hold these securities for the time necessary to recover the amortized cost.

Nonaccrual loans excluded from impaired loan disclosure amounted to $2,767,000 and $1,222,000 at June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively. If interest on nonaccrual loans had been accrued, such income would have approximated $195,000 and $212,000 for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Interest income recorded on nonaccrual loans was $0 and $43,000 for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively.
Loans past due 90 days and still accruing interest amounted to $226,000 at June 30, 2006 and $56,000 at December 31, 2005.
Foreclosed real estate was $435,000 at June 30, 2006 and $188,000 at December 31, 2005, and is reflected in other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The Corporation acquired loans pursuant to the acquisition of Community First. In accordance with American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“AICPA”) Statement of Position 03-3 (“SOP 03-3”), at acquisition, the Bank reviews each loan to determine whether there is evidence of deterioration of credit quality since origination and if it is probable that it will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the loan’s contractual terms. When both conditions exist, the Bank accounts for each loan individually and considers expected prepayments, and estimates the amount and timing of undiscounted expected principal, interest and other cash flows (expected at acquisition) for each loan. The Bank determines the excess of the loan’s scheduled contractual principal and contractual interest payments over all cash flows expected at acquisition as an amount that should not be accreted into interest income (nonaccretable difference). The remaining amount, representing the excess of the loan’s cash flows expected to be collected over the amount paid, is accreted into interest income over the remaining life of the loan (accretable yield).
Over the life of the loan, the Bank continues to estimate cash flows expected to be collected. The Bank evaluates at the balance sheet date whether the present value of its loans determined using the effective interest rates has decreased and if so, establishes a loan loss allowance for the loan. The Corporation’s valuation allowances for all acquired loans subject to SOP 03-3 reflect only those losses incurred after acquisition - that is, the present value of cash flows expected at acquisition that are not expected to be collected. Valuation allowances are established only subsequent to acquisition of the loans. For loans that are not accounted for as debt securities, the present value of any subsequent increase in the loan’s or pool’s actual cash flows or cash flows expected to be collected is used first to reverse any existing valuation allowance for that loan. For any remaining increases in cash flows expected to be collected, the Bank adjusts the amount of accretable yield recognized on a prospective basis over the loan’s remaining life.
Information regarding loans that were acquired in the acquisition, for which there was, at acquisition, evidence of deterioration of credit quality since origination and for which it was probable, at acquisition, that all contractually required payments would not be made, is summarized below (in thousands):

NOTE 9 - SEGMENT AND RELATED INFORMATION
In accordance with FAS No. 131, “Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information,” reportable segments include community banking and trust and investment services.
Community banking involves making loans to and generating deposits from individuals and businesses. All assets and liabilities of the Bank are allocated to community banking. Investment income from securities is also allocated to the community banking segment. Loan fee income, service charges from deposit accounts and non-deposit fees such as automatic teller machine fees and insurance commissions generate additional income for community banking.
Trust and investment services include estate planning, trust account administration, and investment management. Investment management services include purchasing equity, fixed income and mutual fund investments for customer accounts. The trust and investment services division receives fees for investment and administrative services. Fees are also received by this division for individual retirement accounts managed for the community banking segment.
Segment information for the six month periods ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 is shown in the following table. The “Other” column includes corporate items, results of insignificant operations and, as it relates to segment profit (loss), income and expense not allocated to reportable segments. Inter-segment eliminations primarily consist of the Corporation’s investment in the Bank and related equity earnings.

NOTE 10 - MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS
On April 1, 2006, the Corporation finalized the acquisition of Community First Financial Corporation (“Community First”) and acquired 100% of the voting equity interests. Community First was a bank holding company headquartered in Lynchburg, Virginia, and through its subsidiary, Community First Bank, operated four banking offices serving the city of Lynchburg and Bedford, Nelson and Amherst Counties. The reported quarterly results as of June 30, 2006 for the Corporation include the acquisition of Community First.
The Corporation entered into the merger agreement with Community First because it believed the merger to be consistent with its expansion strategy to target entry into strong markets that logically extend its existing footprint. The Lynchburg Metropolitan Statistical Area has excellent demographics in terms of growth and banking opportunity, and the region lies just north of the Corporation’s preexisting franchise. The Corporation had previously opened a full service banking office in the Lynchburg area and was considering opening additional offices in that area.
The acquisition was accounted for in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 141, “Business Combinations” and Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” and accordingly, the assets and liabilities of Community First were recorded at their respective fair market values as of April 1, 2006.
The difference between the purchase price for Community First and the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired (including core deposit intangibles) was recorded as goodwill. The aggregate purchase price was $34.6 million, and included common stock valued at $17.5 million, cash in the amount of $17.1 million, and acquisition costs to date of $503,000. Community First shareholders received 746,944 of the Corporation’s common shares.
The following table presents unaudited pro forma results of operations for the periods ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, as though the companies had combined at the beginning of the respective periods. The pro forma financial information does not necessarily reflect the results of operations that would have occurred had the companies existed as a single entity during both periods.

The purpose of this discussion is to focus on important factors affecting the financial condition and results of operations of American National Bankshares Inc. and American National Bank and Trust Company. The discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and supplemental financial data.
This report contains forward-looking statements with respect to the financial condition, results of operations and business of the Corporation. These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties and are based on the beliefs and assumptions of management of the Corporation and on information available to management at the time these statements and disclosures were prepared. Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from those expected include the following:
· | General economic or business conditions, either nationally or in the market areas in which the Corporation does business, may be less favorable than expected, resulting in, among other things, a deterioration in credit quality, a reduced demand for credit, and a reduction in depositors’ account balances. |
· | Changes in interest rates could increase or reduce income. |
· | Competition among financial institutions may increase and competitors may have greater financial resources and develop products and technology that enable those competitors to compete more successfully than the Corporation. |
· | Businesses that the Corporation is engaged in may be adversely affected by legislative or regulatory changes, including changes in accounting standards. |
· | Adverse changes may occur in the securities markets. |
· | Deposit attrition, customer loss, or revenue loss following the acquisition of Community First Financial Corporation may be greater than expected. |
· | Estimated cost savings from the acquisition of Community First Financial Corporation may not be fully realized within the expected timeframe. |
Reclassification
In certain circumstances, reclassifications have been made to prior period information to conform to the 2006 presentation.
Critical Accounting Policies
The Corporation’s critical accounting policies are listed below. A summary of the Corporation’s significant accounting policies is set forth in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Corporation’s 2005 Annual report on Form 10-K.
The Corporation's financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The financial information contained within the statements is, to a significant extent, financial information that is based on measures of the financial effects of transactions and events that have already occurred. A variety of factors could affect the ultimate value that is obtained when earning income, recognizing an expense, recovering an asset or relieving a liability. In addition, GAAP itself may change from one previously acceptable method to another method. Although the economics of the transactions would be the same, the timing of events that would impact those transactions could change.
Allowance for Loan Losses
The allowance for loan losses is an estimate of the losses inherent in the loan portfolio at the balance sheet date. The allowance is based on two basic principles of accounting: (i) Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“FAS”) No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies, which requires that losses be accrued when they are probable of occurring and estimable and (ii) FAS No. 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan, which requires that losses on impaired loans be accrued based on the differences between the value of collateral, present value of future cash flows, or values observable in the secondary market, and the loan balance.
The Corporation’s allowance for loan losses has three basic components: the formula allowance, the specific allowance and the unallocated allowance. Each of these components is determined based upon estimates that can and do change. The formula allowance uses a historical loss view as an indicator of future losses along with various qualitative factors, including levels and trends in delinquencies, nonaccrual loans, charge-offs, and recoveries; trends in volume and terms of loans; effects of changes in underwriting standards; experience of lending staff; economic conditions; and portfolio concentrations. In the formula allowance, the historical loss rate is combined with the qualitative factors, resulting in an adjusted loss factor for each risk-grade category of loans. The adjusted loss factor is multiplied by the period-end balances for each risk-grade category. The formula allowance includes an allowance for unfunded commitments, which is calculated by multiplying an estimated loss factor by an estimated probability of funding, and then by the period-end amounts for unfunded commitments. The specific allowance uses the value of collateral, present value of future cash flows, or values observable in the secondary market to arrive at an estimate of loss for specifically identified impaired loans. The unallocated allowance includes estimated losses whose impact on the portfolio has yet to be recognized in either the formula or specific allowance. The use of these values is inherently subjective and actual losses could be greater or less than the estimates.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
The Corporation adopted FAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, effective January 1, 2002. Accordingly, goodwill is no longer subject to amortization over its estimated useful life, but is subject to at least an annual assessment for impairment by applying a fair value based test. Additionally, under FAS No. 142, acquired intangible assets (such as core deposit intangibles) are separately recognized if the benefit of the asset can be sold, transferred, licensed, rented, or exchanged, and amortized over their useful life. Branch acquisition transactions were outside the scope of SFAS 142 and, accordingly, intangible assets related to such transactions continued to amortize upon the adoption of FAS No. 142. The cost of purchased deposit relationships and other intangible assets, based on independent valuation, are being amortized over their estimated lives not to exceed fifteen years. Amortization expense charged to operations was $134,000 and $113,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, and was $173,000 and $225,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

The Management’s Discussion and Analysis may refer to the efficiency ratio, which is computed by dividing noninterest expense by the sum of net interest income on a tax equivalent basis and noninterest income (excluding gains on sales of securities or other assets). This is a non-GAAP financial measure which management believes provides investors with important information regarding the Corporation’s operational efficiency. Comparison of the Corporation’s efficiency ratio with those of other companies may not be valid because other companies may calculate the efficiency ratio differently.
The analysis of net interest income in this document is performed on a tax equivalent basis. Management believes the tax equivalent presentation better reflects total return, as many financial assets have specific tax advantages that modify their effective yields. A reconcilement of tax-equivalent net interest income to net interest income is provided.
New Accounting Pronouncements
In March 2006, FASB issued FAS No. 156, “Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets---an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140.” This Statement amends FASB Statement No. 140, “Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities,” with respect to the accounting for separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities. This Statement: 1. Requires an entity to recognize a servicing asset or servicing liability each time it undertakes an obligation to service a financial asset by entering into a servicing contract in any of the following situations: (a) A transfer of the servicer’s financial assets that meets the requirements for sale accounting, (b) A transfer of the servicer’s financial assets to a qualifying special-purpose entity in a guaranteed mortgage securitization in which the transferor retains all of the resulting securities and classifies them as either available-for-sale securities or trading securities in accordance with FASB Statement No. 115, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities,” and (c) An acquisition or assumption of an obligation to service a financial asset that does not relate to financial assets of the servicer or its consolidated affiliates, 2. Requires all separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities to be initially measured at fair value, if practicable, and 3. Permits an entity to choose either of the following subsequent measurement methods for each class of separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities: (a) Amortization method—Amortize servicing assets or servicing liabilities in proportion to and over the period of estimated net servicing income or net servicing loss and assess servicing assets or servicing liabilities for impairment or increased obligation based on fair value at each reporting date, (b) Fair value measurement method—Measure servicing assets or servicing liabilities at fair value at each reporting date and report changes in fair value in earnings in the period in which the changes occur, (c) At its initial adoption, permits a one-time reclassification of available-for-sale securities to trading securities by entities with recognized servicing rights, without calling into question the treatment of other available-for-sale securities under Statement 115, provided that the available-for-sale securities are identified in some manner as offsetting the entity’s exposure to changes in fair value of servicing assets or servicing liabilities that a servicer elects to subsequently measure at fair value, or (d) Requires separate presentation of servicing assets and servicing liabilities subsequently measured at fair value in the statement of financial position and additional disclosures for all separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities.
The Corporation does not anticipate this Statement will have a material effect on its financial statements.
In June 2006, FASB issued Interpretation 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109.” This Interpretation clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. This Interpretation prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. This Interpretation also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition.
The evaluation of a tax position in accordance with this Interpretation is a two-step process. The first step is recognition: The enterprise determines whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. In evaluating whether a tax position has met the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, the enterprise should presume that the position will be examined by the appropriate taxing authority that would have full knowledge of all relevant information. The second step is measurement: A tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is measured to determine the amount of benefit to recognize in the financial statements. The tax position is measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement.
Differences between tax positions taken in a tax return and amounts recognized in the financial statements will generally result in one of the following:
a. | An increase in a liability for income taxes payable or a reduction of an income tax refund receivable |
b. | A reduction in a deferred tax asset or an increase in a deferred tax liability |
c. | Both (a) and (b). |
Tax positions that previously failed to meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold should be recognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is met. Previously recognized tax positions that no longer meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold should be derecognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is no longer met.
The Corporation does not anticipate this Statement will have a material effect on its financial statements.

ANALYSIS OF OPERATING RESULTS
Net Interest Income
Net interest income, the Corporation’s largest source of revenue, is the excess of interest income over interest expense. Net interest income is influenced by a number of factors, including the volume and mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, interest rates earned on earning assets, and interest rates paid on deposits and borrowed funds. For analytical purposes, net interest income is adjusted to a taxable equivalent basis to recognize the income tax savings on tax-exempt assets, such as state and municipal securities. A tax rate of 34% was used in adjusting interest on tax-exempt assets to a fully taxable equivalent (“FTE”) basis. Net interest income divided by average earning assets is referred to as the net interest margin. The difference between the average rate earned on earning assets and the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities is referred to as the net interest spread.
In comparison to the second quarter of 2005, net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis increased $1,762,000, or 28.5%. The improvement was due largely to the impact of the Community First acquisition, which significantly increased the Company’s interest-earning assets. Average interest-earning assets increased from $597,153,000 in the second quarter of 2005 to $749,709,000 in the recently completed quarter. Second quarter 2006 interest income included a positive impact of $134,000 related to the valuation of Community First’s loans. Similarly, interest expense for the quarter was reduced by $66,000 related to the valuation of certain Community First deposits. Beginning April 1, 2006, the loan valuation is being amortized over fifty-two months and the deposit valuation over thirteen months. Excluding these purchase accounting adjustments, taxable equivalent net interest income increased $1,562,000 or 27.1%. The Company’s net interest margin, on a fully taxable equivalent basis, was 4.24% during the second quarter of 2006. Excluding the effects of the aforementioned purchase accounting adjustments for loans and deposits, the net interest margin was 4.13%, compared to 4.14% during both the same quarter of 2005 and the first quarter of 2006.
To meet its funding needs for the Community First acquisition, the Company issued $20,619,000 of trust preferred securities during the second quarter of 2006. These securities bear interest at a fixed rate of 6.66% for five years, after which the interest rate will vary quarterly based on changes in the ninety-day LIBOR index. The Company may repay all or a portion of the securities after five years. Interest expense associated with these securities was $320,000 during the quarter.
For the first six months of 2006, taxable equivalent net interest income was $14,200,000, up from $12,315,000 for the first half of 2005. The increase is attributable to the acquisition of Community First and to general increases in interest rates.
The following presentation is an analysis of net interest income and related yields and rates, on a taxable equivalent basis, for the second quarter and first six months of 2005 and 2006. Nonaccrual loans are included in average balances. Interest income on nonaccrual loans, if recognized, is recorded on a cash basis or when the loan returns to accrual status.

Allowance and Provision for Loan Losses
The purpose of the allowance for loan losses is to provide for losses inherent in the loan portfolio. The allowance is increased by the provision for loan losses and by recoveries of previously charged-off loans. Loan charge-offs decrease the allowance.
The Bank’s lenders are responsible for assigning risk ratings to loans using the parameters set forth in the Bank’s Credit Policy. The risk ratings are reviewed for accuracy, on a sample basis, by the Bank’s Loan Review department, which operates independently of loan production. These risk ratings are used in calculating the level of the allowance for loan losses.
The Bank’s Credit Committee has responsibility for determining the level and adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. Among other factors, the Committee on a quarterly basis considers the Bank’s historical loss experience; the size and composition of the loan portfolio; individual risk ratings; nonperforming loans; impaired loans; other problem credits; the value and adequacy of collateral and guarantors; and national and local economic conditions. The Audit and Compliance Committee and the Board of Directors review the allowance calculation quarterly.
No single statistic, formula or measurement determines the adequacy of the allowance. Management makes difficult, subjective, and complex judgements about matters that are inherently uncertain, and different amounts would be reported under different conditions or using different assumptions. For analytical purposes, management allocates a portion of the allowance to specific loan categories and specific loans (the allocated allowance). The entire allowance is used to absorb credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio, including identified and unidentified potential losses.
The allowance is supplemented to adjust for imprecision (particularly in commercial, commercial real estate and construction lending) and to provide for a range of possible outcomes inherent in estimates used for the allocated allowance. This reflects the result of management’s judgment of risks inherent in the portfolio, economic uncertainties and other subjective factors, including industry trends in the Bank’s region.
The relationships and ratios used in calculating the allowance, including the qualitative factors, may change from period to period. Furthermore, we cannot provide assurance that, in any particular period, the Bank will not have sizeable credit losses in relation to the amount reserved. Management may find it necessary to significantly adjust the allowance, considering current factors at the time, including economic conditions, industry trends and ongoing internal and external examination processes.
The Southside Virginia market, in which the Bank has a significant presence, is under economic pressure. The region’s economic base has historically been weighted toward the manufacturing sector. Increased global competition has negatively impacted the local textile industry and several manufacturers have closed plants due to competitive pressures or the relocation of some operations to foreign countries. Other important industries include farming, tobacco processing and sales, food processing, furniture manufacturing and sales, specialty glass manufacturing, and packaging tape production. Additional declines in manufacturing production and unemployment could negatively impact the ability of certain borrowers to repay loans.
The unallocated portion of the allowance reflects management’s attempt to provide that the overall allowance appropriately reflects a margin for the imprecision necessarily inherent in estimates of credit losses. The allowance is also subject to 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 banks.
The provision for loan losses increased from $240,000 in the second quarter of 2005 to $354,000 in the second quarter of 2006, and decreased from $540,000 during the first six months of 2005 to $480,000 for the first six months of 2006.
The allowance for loan losses was $8,208,000 at June 30, 2006, an increase of 34% over the $6,109,000 recorded at December 31, 2005. This increase is due largely to the allowance acquired as a result of the acquisition of Community First. The allowance acquired was $1,598,000, or 76% of the $2,099,000 increase since December 31, 2005. The remaining portion of the increase since December 31, 2005 relates to applying the Corporation's allowance for loan losses methodology to the former Communiy First loans and to other risk grade changes. The allowance represented 1.49% of loans at June 30, 2006, in comparison to 1.46% at December 31, 2005. Management believes the allowance for loan losses is adequate to absorb losses inherent in the Bank's loan portfolio at June 30, 2006. More information regarding loan quality is provided in the “Asset Quality, Credit Risk Management, and Nonperforming Assets” section.
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income rose 15.8% from $1,958,000 in the second quarter of 2005 to $2,267,000 in the second quarter of 2006. The increase is primarily the result of higher trust and investment services fees, increased mortgage banking income, and the effect of the Community First acquisition. Noninterest income for the first half of 2006 was $4,168,000, up $143,000 or 3.6% over the first half of 2005. During the first quarter of 2005, the Corporation received $320,000 of nonrecurring income from the sale of its membership in a debit card processor.
Fees from the management of trusts, estates, and asset management accounts totaled $885,000 in the second quarter of 2006, up 15.4% from $767,000 for the same period in 2005. For the first six months of 2006, these fees increased $153,000 or 10.3% over the comparable 2005 period. These increases were due primarily to new account activity and fee structure changes.
Service charges on deposit accounts were $737,000, up from $632,000 for the second quarter in 2005, and increased 9.8% or $117,000 in the first six months of 2006 over the first half of 2005, due primarily to the acquisition of Community First.
Other fees and commissions were up $19,000 from the second quarter of 2005 to 2006, and increased $77,000, or 14.7% from $524,000 in the first six months of 2005 to $601,000 in the first half of 2006. The growth in this category was largely due to increased retail brokerage sales.
Mortgage banking income represents fees from originating, selling and brokering residential mortgage loans. Mortgage banking income was $203,000 for the second three months of 2006, an increase of 23.0% over the second quarter of 2005, due primarily to increased activity. Increased mortgage lending activity also led to a $71,000 increase in mortgage banking income for the first six months of 2006 compared with the first six months of 2005.
Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expense increased $1,136,000 from the second quarter of 2005 to 2006, and $1,528,000 from the first half of 2005 to 2006, due in large part to the impact of the Community First acquisition, the Company’s initial expansion into the Lynchburg, Virginia market in 2005, and an increase in pension and other employee benefit expense. All personnel and other costs associated with operating the four Community First banking offices are included in the recently completed quarter. Approximate nonrecurring merger expenses incurred during the quarter were $118,000 and consisted primarily of consulting fees and severance payments to former Community First employees. Amortization expense during the second quarter of 2006 related to the Community First core deposit intangible asset was $94,000. Beginning April 1, 2006, this asset is being amortized over ninety-nine months.
For the first half of 2006, noninterest expense was $9,739,000, up 18.6% from $8,211,000 during the first half of 2005. Approximate nonrecurring merger expenses during the first six months of 2006 were $172,000.
Income Tax Provision
The effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2006 was 29.7% compared to 28.9% for the same period of 2005. For the first six months of 2006 and 2005, the effective tax rates were 29.6% and 28.8%, respectively. The effective tax rate is lower than the statutory rate primarily due to the effect of the Bank’s ownership of tax-exempt state and municipal securities.
FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY, AND CAPITAL
Securities
Average investment securities increased $10,816,000, or 6.3% during the second quarter of 2006, as compared to the same period in 2005, due largely to the addition of securities from the Community First acquisition. Average investment securities increased $1,210,000 or 0.7% during the first six months of 2006 from the same period in 2005.
Loans
Average loans were $550,706,000 during the second quarter of 2006, compared with $420,612,000 in the second quarter of 2005. For the first half of 2006, average loans increased 15.9% over 2005. The increase in loans is primarily the result of the Community First acquisition.
Asset Quality, Credit Risk Management, and Nonperforming Assets
Management identifies specific credit risks through its periodic analysis of the loan portfolio and monitors general risks arising from economic trends, market values, and other external factors. The Bank maintains an allowance for loan losses, which is available to absorb losses inherent in the loan portfolio. The adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is determined on a quarterly basis. Various factors as defined in the section "Allowance and Provision for Loan Losses" are considered in determining the adequacy of the allowance.
The Bank uses certain practices to manage its credit risk. These practices include (a) appropriate lending limits for loan officers, (b) a loan approval process, (c) careful underwriting of loan requests, including analysis of borrowers, collateral, and market risks, (d) regular monitoring of the portfolio, (e) review of loans by a Loan Review department which operates independently of loan production, (f) regular meetings of a Credit Committee to discuss portfolio and policy changes, and (g) regular meetings of an Asset Quality Committee which reviews the status of individual loans.
Nonperforming loans include loans on which interest is no longer accrued, accruing loans that are contractually past due 90 days or more as to principal and interest payments, and loans classified as troubled debt restructurings. Nonperforming assets include nonperforming loans and foreclosed real estate. Nonperforming loans represented .82% of total loans at June 30, 2006, down from 1.02% at December 31, 2005.

Liquidity
Liquidity is the measure of the Bank's ability to generate sufficient funds to meet customer demands for loans and the withdrawal of deposit balances. Liquidity sources include cash and amounts due from banks, interest-bearing deposits in other banks, loan repayments, increases in deposits, lines of credit from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta (“FHLB”) and two correspondent banks, and maturities and sales of securities. Management believes that these sources provide sufficient and timely liquidity.
Management monitors and plans the Bank’s liquidity position for future periods. Liquidity strategies are implemented and monitored by ALCO. The Committee uses a simulation and budget model to manage the future liquidity needs of the Bank.
The Bank’s net liquid assets, which includes cash and due from banks and unpledged securities available-for-sale, less the Bank’s reserve requirement, to liabilities ratio was 15.9% at June 30, 2006 and 18.6% at December 31, 2005. Both of these ratios reflect adequate liquidity for the respective periods.
The Bank has a line of credit with the FHLB equal to 30% of the Bank’s assets. This amounted to a line of credit in the amount of $242,770,000 at June 30, 2006. Borrowings under the line were $17,163,000 at June 30, 2006. Under the terms of its collateral agreement with the FHLB, the Bank provides a blanket lien covering all of its residential first mortgage loans, and home equity lines of credit. In addition, the Bank pledges as collateral its capital stock in and deposits with the FHLB.
The Bank had fixed-rate term borrowing contracts with the FHLB as of June 30, 2006, with the following final maturities (in thousands):
Amount | Expiration Date | |||
$2,000 | July 2006 | |||
1,000 | July 2007 | |||
3,000 | June 2008 | |||
5,000 | August 2008 | |||
5,000 | April 2009 | |||
1,163 | March 2014 | |||
$17,163 |
The Bank also has federal funds lines of credit established with two other banks in the amounts of $15,000,000 and $5,000,000, and has access to the Federal Reserve Bank’s discount window. There were no amounts outstanding under these facilities at June 30, 2006.
Deposits
Average deposits were $638,020,000 during the recently completed quarter, up from $480,625,000 during the comparable quarter of 2005. Comparing the first six months of 2006 with the first six months of 2005, average deposits increased $96,483,000. The increase in deposits was primarily the result of the Community First acquisition.
Off-Balance Sheet Transactions
The Bank enters into certain financial transactions in the ordinary course of performing traditional banking services that result in off-balance sheet transactions. Off-balance sheet transactions were as follows (in thousands):
Off-Balance Sheet Transactions | June 30 2006 | December 31 2005 | |||||
Commitments to extend credit | $ | 161,486 | $ | 116,898 | |||
Standby letters of credit | 3,275 | 2,625 | |||||
Commitments to purchase securities | - | - | |||||
Mortgage loan rate-lock commitments | 4,281 | 1,716 |
Commitments to extend credit to customers represent legally binding agreements with fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being funded, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future funding requirements. Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Bank guaranteeing the performance of a customer to a third party. Those guarantees are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements. The increase in commitments to extend credit from December 31, 2005 to June 30, 2006 relates primarily to the acquisition of Community First.
Contractual Obligations
The most significant change in the Corporation’s contractual obligations since December 31, 2005 is represented by the issuance of $20,619,000 of debt securities as described in Note 2. The proceeds of the debt securities are being used to fund the cash portion of the merger consideration to the former shareholders of Community First Financial Corporation in connection with the Corporation’s acquisition of that company, and for general corporate purposes.
Capital
In the second quarter of 2006, the Corporation declared and paid a quarterly cash dividend of $.22 per share.
On August 16, 2005, the Corporation’s board of directors approved the extension of its stock repurchase plan, begun in 2000, to include the repurchase of up to 200,000 shares of the Corporation’s common stock between August 17, 2005 and August 15, 2006. The stock may be purchased in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions as management determines to be in the best interest of the Corporation. Since December 31, 2005, 31,200 shares were repurchased.
One measure of a financial institution’s capital strength is the ratio of shareholder’s equity to assets. Shareholders’ equity was 11.33% of assets at June 30, 2006 and 11.56% at June 30, 2005. In addition to this measurement, banking regulators have defined minimum regulatory capital ratios for financial institutions. These ratios take into account risk factors identified by those regulatory authorities associated with the assets and off-balance sheet activities of financial institutions. The guidelines require percentages, or “risk weights,” be applied to those assets and off-balance-sheet assets in relation to their perceived risk. Under the guidelines, capital strength is measured in two tiers. Tier I capital consists primarily of shareholder's equity, while Tier II capital consists of qualifying allowance for loan losses. “Total” capital is the total of Tier I and Tier II capital. Another indicator of capital adequacy is the leverage ratio, which is computed by dividing Tier I capital by average quarterly assets less intangible assets.
The guidelines require that total capital (Tier I plus Tier II) of 8% be held against total risk-adjusted assets, at least half of which (4%) must be Tier I capital. At June 30, 2006, the Corporation's Tier I and total capital ratios were 15.06% and 16.33%, respectively. At December 31, 2005, these ratios were 16.25% and 17.57%, respectively. The ratios for both periods were in excess of the regulatory requirements. The Corporation's leverage ratios were 11.20% and 11.94% at June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively. The leverage ratio has a regulatory minimum of 3%, with most institutions required to maintain a ratio one to two percent above the 3% minimum depending upon risk profiles and other factors.
As mandated by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Act of 1991 ("FDICIA"), the following five capital categories are identified for insured depository institutions: "well capitalized," "adequately capitalized," "undercapitalized," "significantly undercapitalized," and "critically undercapitalized". FDICIA requires the federal banking regulators to take prompt corrective action with respect to insured depository institutions that do not meet minimum capital requirements. Under the regulations, well capitalized institutions must have Tier I risk-based capital ratios of at least 6%, total risk-based capital ratios of at least 10%, and leverage ratios of at least 5% and not be subject to capital directive orders. Management believes, as of June 30, 2006, that the Corporation and the Bank met the requirements to be considered “well capitalized.”
Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices
The majority of assets and liabilities of a financial institution are monetary in nature and therefore differ greatly from most commercial and industrial companies that have significant investments in fixed assets or inventories. The most significant effect of inflation is on other expenses that tend to rise during periods of inflation. Changes in interest rates have a greater impact on a financial institution’s profitability than do the effects of higher costs for goods and services. Through its balance sheet management practices, the Bank has the ability to react to those changes and measure and monitor its interest rate and liquidity risk.
ITEM 3.
Market Risk Management
Effectively managing market risk is essential to achieving the Bank’s financial objectives. Market risk reflects the risk of economic loss resulting from adverse changes in interest rates and market prices. The Corporation is not subject to currency exchange risk or commodity price risk.
As a financial institution, interest rate risk and its impact on net interest income is the primary market risk exposure. The magnitude of the change in earnings resulting from interest rate changes is impacted by the time remaining to maturity on fixed-rate obligations, the contractual ability to adjust rates prior to maturity, competition, and the general level of interest rates.
The Asset/Liability Investment Committee (“ALCO”) is primarily responsible for establishing asset and liability strategies and for monitoring and controlling liquidity and interest rate risk within established policy guidelines. ALCO is also responsible for evaluating the competitive rate environment and reviewing investment securities transactions.
The Bank uses simulation analysis to measure the sensitivity of projected earnings to changes in interest rates. Simulation takes into account current balance sheet volumes and the scheduled maturities and payments of assets and liabilities. It incorporates numerous assumptions including growth, changes in the mix of assets and liabilities, prepayments, and average rates earned and paid. Based on this information, the model projects net interest income under multiple interest rate scenarios.
Management cannot predict future interest rates or their exact effect on net interest income. Computations of future effects of hypothetical interest rate changes are based on numerous assumptions and should not be relied upon as indicative of actual results. Certain limitations are inherent in such computations. Assets and liabilities may react differently than projected to changes in market interest rates. The interest rates on certain types of assets and liabilities may fluctuate in advance of changes in market interest rates, while rates on other types of assets and liabilities may lag behind changes in market interest rates. Also, the methodology uses estimates of various rates of withdrawal for money market deposits, savings, and checking accounts, which may vary significantly from actual experience.
The Bank is also subject to prepayment risk, particularly in falling interest rate environments or in environments where the slope of the yield curve is relatively flat or negative. Such changes in the interest rate environment can cause substantial changes in the amount of prepayments of loans and mortgage-backed securities, which may in turn affect the Bank’s interest rate sensitivity position. Additionally, credit risk may increase if an interest rate increase adversely affects the ability of borrowers to service their debt.
There have been no material changes to market risk as disclosed in the Corporation’s 2005 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Refer to those disclosures for further information.
ITEM 4.
The Corporation's management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the Corporation's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") as of June 30, 2006. Based on this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Corporation's disclosure controls and procedures are effective. There were no significant changes in the Corporation's internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2006 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Corporation's internal control over financial reporting.
PART II
OTHER INFORMATION
Item:
The nature of the business of the Corporation’s banking subsidiary ordinarily results in a certain amount of litigation. The subsidiary of the Corporation is involved in various legal proceedings, all of which are considered incidental to the normal conduct of business. Management believes that the liabilities arising from these proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position or consolidated results of operations of the Corporation.
