PART I
| ITEM 1 | - DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS |
BACKGROUND AND CURRENT OPERATIONS
General
Peoples Financial Corporation (the “Company”) was organized as a one bank holding company in 1984. The Company is headquartered in Biloxi, Mississippi. At December 31, 2009, the Company operates in the state of Mississippi through its wholly-owned subsidiary, The Peoples Bank, Biloxi, Mississippi (the “Bank”). The Company is engaged, through this subsidiary, in the banking business. The Bank is the Company’s principal asset and primary source of revenue.
The Main Office, operations center and asset management and trust services of the Bank are located in downtown Biloxi, MS. At December 31, 2009, the Bank also had 15 branches located throughout Harrison, Hancock, Jackson and Stone Counties. The Bank has automated teller machines (“ATM”) at its Main Office, all branch locations and at numerous non-proprietary locations.
The Bank Subsidiary
The Company’s wholly-owned bank subsidiary is The Peoples Bank, which was originally chartered in 1896 in Biloxi, Mississippi. The Bank is a state chartered bank whose deposits are insured under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act. The Bank is not a member of the Federal Reserve System. The legal name of the Bank was changed to The Peoples Bank, Biloxi, Mississippi, during 1991.
Most of the Bank’s business originates from the trade area of Harrison, Hancock, Stone and Jackson Counties in Mississippi; however, some business is obtained from other counties in southern Mississippi.
Nonbank Subsidiary
In 1985, PFC Service Corp. (“PFC”) was chartered and began operations as the second wholly-owned subsidiary of Peoples Financial Corporation. The purpose of PFC was principally the leasing of automobiles and equipment. PFC is inactive at this time.
Products And Services
The Bank currently offers a variety of services to individuals and small to middle market businesses within its trade area.
The Bank’s primary lending focus is to offer business, commercial, real estate, construction, personal and installment loans, with an emphasis on commercial lending. The Bank’s exposure for out of area, land, development, construction and commercial real estate loans as well as concentrations in the hotel/motel and gaming industries are monitored by the Company. Each loan officer has board approved lending limits on the principal amount of secured and unsecured loans that can be approved for a single borrower without prior approval of the loan committee. All loans, however, must meet the credit underwriting standards and loan policies of the Bank.

Table of Contents
Deposit services include interest bearing and non-interest bearing checking accounts, savings accounts, certificates of deposit, and IRA accounts. The Bank also offers a non-deposit funds management account, which is not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). The Bank generally provides depository accounts to individuals and small and middle market businesses in its trade area at interest rates consistent with market conditions.
The Bank’s Asset Management and Trust Services Department offers personal trust, agencies and estate services, including living and testamentary trusts, executorships, guardianships, and conservatorships. Benefit accounts maintained by the Department primarily include self-directed individual retirement accounts. Escrow management, stock transfer and bond paying agency accounts are available to corporate customers.
The Bank also offers a variety of other services including safe deposit box rental, wire transfer services, night drop facilities, collection services, cash management and Internet banking. The Bank has 47 ATMs at its branch locations and other off-site, non-proprietary locations, providing bank customers access to their depository accounts. The Bank is a member of the PULSE network.
There has been no significant change in the kind of services offered by the Bank during the last three fiscal years.
Customers
The Bank has a large number of customers acquired over a period of many years and is not dependent upon a single customer or upon a few customers. The Bank also provides services to customers representing a wide variety of industries including seafood, retail, hospitality, hotel/motel, gaming and construction. While the Company has pursued external growth strategies on a limited basis, its primary focus has been on internal growth by the Bank through the establishment of new branch locations and an emphasis on strong customer relationships.
Employees
At December 31, 2009, the Bank employed 189 full-time employees and 15 part-time employees. The Company has no employees who are not employees of the bank subsidiary. Through the Bank, employees receive salaries and benefits, which include 401(k), ESOP, cafeteria plan, life, health and disability insurance. The Company considers its relationship with its employees to be good.
Competition
The Bank is in direct competition with numerous local and regional commercial banks as well as other non-bank institutions. Interest rates paid and charged on deposits and loans are the primary competitive factors within the Bank’s trade area. The Bank also competes for deposits and loans with insurance companies, finance companies, brokerage houses and credit unions. The principal competitive factors in the markets for deposits and loans are interest rates paid and charged. The

Table of Contents
Company also competes through efficiency, quality of customer service, the range of services and products it provides, the convenience of its branch and ATM locations and the accessibility of its staff. The Bank intends to continue its strategy of being a local, community bank offering traditional bank services and providing quality service in its local trade area.
Miscellaneous
The Bank holds no patents, licenses (other than licenses required to be obtained from appropriate bank regulatory agencies), franchises or concessions.
The Bank has not engaged in any research activities relating to the development of new services or the improvement of existing services except in the normal course of its business activities. The Bank presently has no plans for any new line of business requiring the investment of a material amount of total assets.
Available Information
The Company maintains an internet website atwww.thepeoples.com. The Company’s Annual Report to Shareholders is available on the Company’s website. Also available through the website is a link to the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Information on the Company’s website is not incorporated into this Form 10-K or the Company’s other securities filings and is not part of them.
REGULATION AND SUPERVISION
Bank Holding Company
The Company is required to file certain reports with, and otherwise comply with the rules and regulations of, the SEC under federal securities laws. The common stock of the Company is listed on the NASDAQ capital market exchange, such listing subjecting the Company to compliance with the exchange’s requirements with respect to reporting and other rules and regulations.
The Company is a registered one bank holding company under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended, and is subject to extensive regulation by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. As such, the Company is required to file periodic reports and additional information required by the Federal Reserve. The Federal Reserve Board may also make examinations of the Company and its subsidiaries.
The Bank Holding Company Act requires every bank holding company to obtain the prior approval of the Federal Reserve Board 1) before it may acquire substantially all the assets of any bank or ownership or control of any voting shares of any bank if, after the acquisition, it would own or control, directly or indirectly, more than 5 percent of the voting shares of the bank, 2) before it or any of its subsidiaries other than a bank may acquire all of the assets of a bank, 3) before it may merge with any other bank holding company or 4) before it may engage in permissible non-banking activities.
3
Table of Contents
A bank holding company is generally prohibited from engaging in, or acquiring direct or indirect control of, voting shares of any company engaged in non-banking activities. One of the principal exceptions to this prohibition is for activities found by the Federal Reserve to be so closely related to banking or the managing or controlling of banks as to be a proper incident thereto. Some of the activities the Federal Reserve Board has determined by regulation to be closely related to banking are the making and servicing of loans; performing certain bookkeeping or data processing services; acting as fiduciary or investment or financial advisor; making equity or debt investments in corporations or projects designed primarily to promote community welfare; and leasing transactions if the functional equivalent of an extension of credit and mortgage banking or brokerage. The Bank Holding Company Act does not place territorial limitations on permissible bank-related activities of bank holding companies. Despite prior approval, however, the Federal Reserve has the power to order a holding company or its subsidiaries to terminate any activity or its control of any subsidiary when it has reasonable cause to believe that continuation of such activity or control of such subsidiary constitutes a serious risk to the financial safety, soundness or stability of any bank subsidiary of that holding company.
A bank holding company and its subsidiaries are also prohibited from acquiring any voting shares of or interest in, any banks located outside the state in which the operations of the bank holding company’s subsidiaries are located, unless the acquisition is specially authorized by the statute of the state in which the target is located. Mississippi has enacted legislation which authorizes interstate acquisitions of banking organizations by bank holding companies outside of Mississippi, and also interstate branching transactions, subject to certain conditions and restrictions.
The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 (the “Financial Services Modernization Act”) allows bank holding companies to engage in a wider range of financial activities. In order to engage in such activities, which, among others, include underwriting and selling insurance; providing financial, investment or economic advisory services; and underwriting, dealing in or making a market in securities, a bank holding company must elect to become a financial holding company. The Financial Services Modernization Act also authorized the establishment of financial subsidiaries in order to engage in such financial activities, with certain limitations.
The Financial Services Modernization Act also contains a number of other provisions affecting the Company’s operations. One of the most important provisions relates to the issue of privacy as federal banking regulators were authorized to adopt rules designed to protect the financial privacy of consumers. These rules implemented notice requirements and restrictions on a financial institution’s ability to disclose nonpublic personal information about consumers to non-affiliated third parties.
As of the date of this Form 10-K, the Company has not taken any action to adopt either the financial holding company or the financial subsidiary structures that were authorized by the Financial Services Modernization Act.

The Federal Reserve has adopted capital adequacy guidelines for use in its examination and regulation of bank holding companies. The regulatory capital of a bank holding company under applicable federal capital adequacy guidelines is particularly important in the Federal Reserve’s evaluation of a holding company and any applications by the bank holding company to the Federal Reserve. A financial institution’s failure to meet minimum regulatory capital standards can lead to other penalties, including termination of deposit insurance or appointment of a conservator or receiver for the financial institution. Risk-based capital ratios are the primary measure of regulatory capital presently applicable to bank holding companies. Risk-based capital guidelines are designed to make regulatory capital requirements more sensitive to differences in risk profiles among banks and bank holding companies, to account for off-balance sheet exposure and to minimize disincentives for holding liquid assets.
The Federal Reserve rates bank holding companies by a component and composite 1 — 5 rating system. This system is designed to help identify institutions which require special attention. Financial institutions are assigned ratings in the areas of capital adequacy, asset quality, management capability, the quality and level of earnings, the adequacy of liquidity and sensitivity to interest rate fluctuations based on the evaluation of the financial condition and operations.
The Company is a legal entity separate and distinct from the Bank. There are various restrictions that limit the ability of the Bank to finance, pay dividends or otherwise supply funds to the Company. In addition, the Bank is subject to certain restrictions on any extension of credit to the bank holding company or any of its subsidiaries, on investments in the stock or other securities thereof and on the taking of such stock or securities as collateral for loans to any borrower. Further, a bank holding company and its subsidiaries are prohibited from engaging in certain tie-in arrangements in connection with extensions of credit, leases or sale of property or furnishing of services.
Bank Subsidiary
The Bank is subject to the regulation of and examination by the Mississippi Department of Banking and Consumer Finance (“Department of Banking”) and the FDIC. Areas subject to regulation include required reserves, investments, loans, mergers, branching, issuance of securities, payment of dividends, capital adequacy, management practices and other areas of banking operations. These regulatory authorities examine such areas as loan and investment quality, management practices, procedures and practices and other aspects of operations. In addition to these regular examinations, the Bank must furnish periodic reports to its regulatory authorities containing a full and accurate statement of affairs. The Bank is subject to deposit insurance assessments by the FDIC and assessments by the Department of Banking to provide operating funds for that agency.
The Bank is a member of the FDIC, and its deposits are insured by law by the Bank Insurance Fund (“BIF”). On December 19, 1991, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 (“FDICIA”) was enacted. The Federal Deposit Insurance Act, as amended by Section 302 of FDICIA, calls for risk-related deposit insurance assessment rates. This risk classification of an institution will determine its deposit insurance premium. Assignment to one of the three capital groups, coupled with assignment to one of three supervisory sub-groups, determines which of the nine risk classifications is appropriate for an institution.
In general, FDICIA subjects bank and bank holding companies to significantly increased regulation and supervision. FDICIA increased the borrowing authority of the FDIC in order to recapitalize the
5
Table of Contents
BIF, and the future borrowings are to be repaid by increased assessments on FDIC member banks. Other significant provisions of FDICIA require a new regulatory emphasis linking supervision to bank capital levels. Also, federal banking regulators are required to take prompt corrective regulatory action with respect to depository institutions that fall below specified capital levels and to draft non-capital regulatory measures to assure bank safety.
FDICIA further requires regulators to perform annual on-site bank examinations, places limits on real estate lending and tightens audit requirements. The new legislation eliminated the “too big to fail” doctrine, which protects uninsured deposits of large banks, and restricts the ability of undercapitalized banks to obtain extended loans from the Federal Reserve Board discount window. FDICIA also imposed new disclosure requirements relating to fees charged and interest paid on checking and deposit accounts. Most of the significant changes brought about by FDICIA required new regulations.
In addition to regulating capital, the FDIC has broad authority to prevent the development or continuance of unsafe or unsound banking practices. Pursuant to this authority, the FDIC has adopted regulations that restrict preferential loans and loan amounts to “affiliates” and “insiders” of banks, require banks to keep information on loans to major stockholders and executive officers and bar certain director and officer interlocks between financial institutions. The FDIC is also authorized to approve mergers, consolidations and assumption of deposit liability transactions between insured banks and between insured banks and uninsured banks or institutions to prevent capital or surplus diminution in such transactions where the resulting, continuing or assumed bank is an insured nonmember state bank.
Although the Bank is not a member of the Federal Reserve System, it is subject to Federal Reserve regulations that require the Bank to maintain reserves against transaction accounts, primarily checking accounts. Because reserves generally must be maintained in cash or in non-interest bearing accounts, the effect of the reserve requirement is to increase the cost of funds for the Bank.
The earnings of commercial banks and bank holding companies are affected not only by general economic conditions but also by the policies of various governmental regulatory authorities, including the Federal Reserve Board. In particular, the Federal Reserve Board regulates money and credit conditions, and interest rates, primarily through open market operations in U. S. Government securities, varying the discount rate of member and nonmember bank borrowing, setting reserve requirements against bank deposits and regulating interest rates payable by banks on certain deposits. These policies influence to a varying extent the overall growth and distribution of bank loans, investments, deposits and the interest rates charged on loans. The monetary policies of the Federal Reserve Board have had a significant effect on the operating results of commercial banks in the past and are expected to continue to do so in the future.
The most recent legislation to potentially impact the Bank is the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act, which was passed in 2008. Information concerning this legislation on page 5 of the 2009 Annual Report to Shareholders in incorporated herein by reference.
Information relating to Regulatory Matters is disclosed on page 6 of the 2009 Annual Report to Shareholders and is incorporated herein by reference.

Summary
The foregoing is a brief summary of certain statutes, rules and regulations affecting the Company and the Bank. It is not intended to be an exhaustive discussion of all the statutes and regulations having an impact on the operations of the Company or the Bank. Additional legislation may be enacted at the federal or state level which may alter the structure, regulation and competitive relationships of financial institutions. It cannot be predicted whether and, in what form, any of these proposals will be adopted or the extent to which the business of the Company or the Bank may be affected thereby.

SUPPLEMENTAL STATISTICAL INFORMATION
Schedules I-A through VII present certain statistical information regarding the Company. This information is not audited and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements found at pages 8 — 28 of the 2009 Annual Report to Shareholders.
Distribution of Assets, Liabilities and Shareholders’ Equity and Interest Rates and Differentials
Net Interest Income, the difference between Interest Income and Interest Expense, is the most significant component of the Company’s earnings. For interest analytical purposes, Management adjusts Net Interest Income to a “taxable equivalent” basis using a 34% Federal Income Tax rate of 34% in 2009 and 2008 and 35% in 2007 on tax-exempt items (primarily interest on municipal securities).
Another significant statistic in the analysis of Net Interest Income is the effective interest differential, also called the net yield on earning assets. The net yield is the difference between the rate of interest earned on earning assets and the effective rate paid for all funds, non-interest bearing as well as interest bearing. Since a portion of the Bank’s deposits do not bear interest, such as demand deposits, the rate paid for all funds is lower than the rate on interest bearing liabilities alone.
Recognizing the importance of interest differential to total earnings, Management places great emphasis on managing interest rate spreads. Although interest differential is affected by national, regional and area economic conditions, including the level of credit demand and interest rates, there are significant opportunities to influence interest differential through appropriate loan and investment policies which are designed to maximize the differential while maintaining sufficient liquidity and availability of incremental funds for purposes of meeting existing commitments and investment in lending and investment opportunities that may arise.
The information included in Schedule I-F presents the change in interest income and interest expense along with the reason(s) for these changes. The change attributable to volume is computed as the change in volume times the old rate. The change attributable to rate is computed as the change in rate times the old volume. The change in rate/volume is computed as the change in rate times the change in volume.

Credit Risk Management and Loan Loss Experience
In the normal course of business, the Bank assumes risks in extending credit. The Bank manages these risks through its lending policies, credit underwriting analysis, appraisal requirements, concentration and exposure limits, loan review procedures and the diversification of its loan portfolio. Although it is not possible to predict loan losses with complete accuracy, Management constantly reviews the characteristics of the loan portfolio to determine its overall risk profile and quality.
In the normal course of business, the Bank assumes risks in extending credit. The Bank manages these risks through its lending policies, credit underwriting analysis, appraisal requirements, concentration and exposure limits, loan review procedures and the diversification of its loan portfolio. Although it is not possible to predict loan losses with complete accuracy, Management constantly reviews the characteristics of the loan portfolio to determine its overall risk profile and quality.
Constant attention to the quality of the loan portfolio is achieved by the loan review process. Throughout this ongoing process, Management is advised of the condition of individual loans and of the quality profile of the entire loan portfolio. Any loan or portion thereof which is classified “loss” by regulatory examiners or which is determined by Management to be uncollectible because of such factors as the borrower’s failure to pay interest or principal, the borrower’s financial condition, economic conditions in the borrower’s industry or the inadequacy of underlying collateral, is charged-off.
Provisions are charged to operating expense based upon historical loss experience, and additional amounts are provided when, in the opinion of Management, such provisions are not adequate based upon the current factors affecting loan collectibility.
The allocation of the allowance for loan losses by loan category is based on the factors mentioned in the preceding paragraphs. Accordingly, since all of these factors are subject to change, the allocation is not necessarily indicative of the breakdown of future losses.
Further information concerning the provision for loan losses and the allowance for loan losses is presented in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis” at pages 1 — 7 of the 2009 Annual Report to Shareholders and “Note A — Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” at pages 13 - 16 of the 2009 Annual Report to Shareholders and are incorporated herein by reference.

ITEM 1a — RISK FACTORS
An investment in the Company’s stock involves a number of risks. Investors should carefully consider the following risks as well as the other information in this Annual Report on Form 10-K and the documents incorporated by reference before making an investment decision. The realization of any of the risks described below could have a material adverse affect on the Company and the price of its common stock.
RISKS RELATING TO THE COMPANY’S BUSINESS
Greater than expected loan losses may adversely affect the Company’s earnings.
The Company’s investment and loan portfolio subject the Company to credit risk. Credit losses are always inherent in the banking business but the current economic downturn presents even more exposure to loss. The Company makes various assumptions and judgments about the collectibility of its loan portfolio and provides an allowance for estimated loan losses based on a number of factors. The Company believes that its current allowance for loan losses is adequate. However, if the Company’s assumptions or judgments prove to be incorrect, the allowance for loan losses may not be sufficient to cover actual loan losses. In the event that our loan customers do not repay their loans according to the terms of the loans, and the collateral securing the repayment of these loans is insufficient to cover any remaining loan balances, the Company could experience significant loan losses or increase the provision for loan losses or both, which could have a material adverse effect on its operating results. The actual amount of future provisions for loan losses cannot be determined at this time and may vary from the amounts of past provisions.
The Company has a high concentration of loans secured by real estate, and a greater downturn in the real estate market could materially and adversely affect earnings.
A significant portion of the Company’s loan portfolio is dependent on real estate. At December 31, 2009, approximately 85% of the Company’s loans had real estate as a primary or secondary component of collateral. The collateral in each case provides an alternate source of repayment if the borrower defaults and may deteriorate in value during the time the credit is extended. A continued deterioration in the economy affecting the value of real estate generally or in the Company’s trade area specifically could significantly impair the value of the collateral and the ability to sell the collateral upon foreclosure. Furthermore, it is likely that the Company would be required to increase the provision for loan losses. If the Company were required to liquidate the collateral securing a loan to satisfy the debit during a period of reduced real estate value or to increase the allowance for
26
Table of Contents
loan losses, the Company’s profitability and financial condition could be adversely impacted.
The Company has a high concentration of exposure to a number of industries.
The Company has concentrations of loan exposure to the hotel/motel and gaming industries. At December 31, 2009, these exposures were $47,714,000 and $69,938,000 or 10% and 15%, respectively, of the total loan portfolio. The recent downturn in the economy has negatively impacted tourism, which is one of the major factors for success in these industries. Given the size of these relationships, a significant loss in either of these portfolios could materially and adversely affect the Company’s earnings.
The current economic downturn or a natural disaster, especially one affecting the Company’s trade area, could adversely affect the Company.
The Company’s primary trade area includes four of the six counties in south Mississippi. With the exception of a number of credits that are considered out of area, the Company’s credit exposure is generally limited to the Mississippi Gulf Coast. As a result, the Company is at risk from continuing adverse business developments in its trade area, including declining real estate value, increasing loan delinquencies, personal and business bankruptcies and unemployment rates. The Company is also at risk to weather-related disasters including hurricanes, floods and tornadoes. If the Mississippi Gulf Coast economy experiences a natural disaster or worsening economic conditions, our operating results could be negatively impacted.
Current economic factors could negatively impact the Company’s liquidity.
In addition to funds provided by its banking activities such as deposits, loan payments and proceeds from the maturity of investment securities, the Company’s liquidity needs have traditionally been met through the purchase of federal funds, often on an unsecured basis, and advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”). The recent disruption in the financial markets has negatively impacted the availability of these unsecured funds. As a result, the Company has increased its borrowing lines with the FHLB and secured approval to participate in the Federal Reserve Bank’s Discount Window Primary Credit Program.
The Company is subject to industry competition which may have an impact on its success.
The profitability of the Company depends on its ability to compete successfully. The Company operates in a highly competitive financial services environment. Certain competitors are larger and may have more resources than the Company. The Company faces competition in its trade area from other commercial banks, savings and loan associations, credit unions, internet banks, finance companies, insurance companies, brokerage and investment banking firms and other financial intermediaries. Some of these non-bank competitors are not subject to the same extensive regulations that govern the Company or the Bank and may have greater flexibility in competing for business. Increased competition could require the Company to increase the rates paid on deposits or lower the rates offered on loans, which could adversely affect and also limit future growth and earnings prospects.
The Company’s profitability is vulnerable to interest rate fluctuations.
The Company’s profitability is dependent to a large extent on net interest income, which is the
27
Table of Contents
difference between interest income on interest-earning assets, such as loans and investment securities, and interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities, such as deposits and borrowings. The Company is asset sensitive to market interest rates, as its assets reprice more quickly to changes in interest rates than do its liabilities. Interest rates dropped by the unprecedented amount of 400 basis points during 2008 as the Federal Reserve, through its Federal Open Market Committee, attempted to stabilize the financial markets, reduce the effects of the recession and stimulate the economy. These actions taken by the Federal Reserve continued to impact the Company’s earnings in 2009. On February 18, 2010, the Federal Reserve increased the discount rate 25 basis points; however, there was no effect on the fed funds or prime interest rates. Discount or fed funds rate changes that occur in 2010 may affect the Company’s earnings in the current year and/or in the future.
Changes in the policies of monetary authorities and other government action could adversely affect the Company’s profitability.
Many factors affect the demand for loans and the ability to attract deposits, including changes in government economic and monetary policies, particularly by the Federal Reserve, modifications to tax, banking and credit laws and regulations, national, state and local economic growth rates and employment rates. The Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 (“EESA”) was enacted in 2008 to address the asset quality, capital and liquidity issues facing certain financial institutions and to improve the general availability of credit for consumers and businesses. In addition, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (“ARRA”) was passed in 2009 in an effort to save and create jobs, stimulate the national economy and promote long-term growth and stability. There can be no assurance that EESA or ARRA will achieve their intended purposes. Furthermore, their failure could result in continuing or worsening economic and market conditions, and this could adversely affect our operations.
The Company is subject to regulation by various federal and state entities.
The Company is subject to the regulations of the SEC, the Federal Reserve Board, the FDIC and the Department of Banking. New regulations issued by these agencies may adversely affect the Company’s ability to carry on its business activities. The Company is also subject to various other federal and state laws and certain changes in these laws and regulations may adversely affect the Company’s operations. Noncompliance with certain of these regulations may impact the Company’s business plans.
The Company is also subject to the accounting rules and regulations of the SEC and the Financial Accounting Standards Board. Changes in accounting rules could adversely affect the reported financial statements or results of operations of the Company and may also require additional effort or cost to implement.
The Company is subject to the requirements under The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 with respect to the assessment of internal controls over financial reporting.
The Company’s management is required to report on, and the independent auditors to attest to, the effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting for each fiscal year end. The rules governing the standards that must be met for management to assess internal controls are complex and require significant documentation and testing. In connection with this effort, the Company has and will continue to incur increased expenses and diversion of Management’s time and other internal
28
Table of Contents
resources. In connection with the attestation process by the Company’s independent auditors, Management may encounter problems or delays in completing the implementation for any requested improvements and receiving a favorable attestation. If the Company cannot make the required report, or if the Company’s external auditors are unable to provide an unqualified attestation, investor confidence in the Company’s common stock could be adversely affected.
The Company is subject to anti-terrorism and money laundering legislation.
The Company is subject to the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism (the “USA PATRIOT Act”), the Bank Secrecy Act, and rules and regulations of the Office of Foreign Assets Control (the “OFAC”). These statutes and related rules and regulations impose requirements and limitations on specified financial transactions and account relationships, intended to guard against money laundering and terrorism financing. Noncompliance with these rules and regulations may adversely affect the Company’s operations and may impact the Company’s business plans.
The Company relies heavily on technology and computer systems, and advances and changes in technology could significantly affect business.
The Company’s ability to compete depends on the ability to continue to adapt to changes in technology on a timely and cost-effective basis to meet customers’ demands. In addition, the Company’s operations are susceptible to negative effects from computer system failures, communication and energy disruption and unethical individuals with technological ability to cause disruptions or failures of data processing systems.
RISKS RELATING TO AN INVESTMENT IN THE COMPANY’S COMMON STOCK
Securities issued by the Company are not FDIC insured.
The Company’s common stock is not a savings or deposit account or other obligation of the Bank and is not insured by the FDIC, the Bank Insurance Fund or any other government agency or instrumentality, or any private insurer and is subject to investment risk, including the possible loss of principal.
The Company’s common stock is not a savings or deposit account or other obligation of the Bank and is not insured by the FDIC, the Bank Insurance Fund or any other government agency or instrumentality, or any private insurer and is subject to investment risk, including the possible loss of principal.
The directors of the Company and executive management own a significant number of shares of stock, allowing further control over business and corporate affairs.
The Company’s directors and executive officers beneficially own approximately 20% of the outstanding common stock of Peoples Financial Corporation. As a result, in addition to their day-to-day management roles, they will be able to exercise significant influence on the Company’s business as shareholders, including influence over election of the Board and the authorization of other corporate actions requiring shareholder approval.

Provisions of the Company’s articles of incorporation and bylaws, Mississippi law and state and federal banking regulations could delay or prevent a takeover by a third party.
Certain provisions of the Company’s articles of incorporation and bylaws and of state and federal law may make it more difficult for someone to acquire control of the Company. Under federal law,
29
Table of Contents
subject to certain exemptions, a person, entity or group must notify the federal banking agencies before acquiring 10% or more of the outstanding voting stock of a bank holding company, including the Company’s shares. Banking agencies review the acquisition to determine if it will result in a change of control. The banking agencies have 60 days to act on the notice, and take in to account several factors, including the resources of the acquirer and the antitrust effects of the acquisition. There are also Mississippi statutory provisions and provisions in the Company’s articles of incorporation and bylaws that may be used to delay or block a takeover attempt. As a result, these statutory provisions and provisions in the Company’s articles and bylaws could result in the Company being less attractive to a potential acquirer.
The Company’s future ability to pay dividends is subject to restrictions.
Since the Company is a holding company with no significant assets other than the Bank, the Company has no material source of funds other than dividends received from the Bank. Therefore, the ability to pay dividends to the shareholders will depend on the Bank’s ability to pay dividends to the Company. Moreover, banks and bank holding companies are both subject to certain federal and state regulatory restrictions on cash dividends. Currently, the Federal Reserve Bank and the FDIC must approve the declaration and payment of dividends by the Company and the Bank, respectively.

ITEM 5 — MARKET FOR THE REGISTRANT’S COMMON STOCK AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS
At December 31, 2009, there were 563 holders of the common stock of the Company. No shares of the Company’s stock were repurchased during the fourth quarter of 2009. The information provided on page 32 of the 2009 Annual Report is incorporated herein by reference.
The graph on the following page compares the Company’s annual percentage change in cumulative total shareholder return on common shares over the last five years with the cumulative total return of a broad equity market index of companies, the NASDAQ Market Index, and peer groups consisting of the Hemscott Industry Group 413 — Regional Southeast Banks (“Hemscott”) and the Morningstar Industry Group, Regional — Southeast Banks (“Morningstar”). The Company has used Hemscott as its peer group in prior years but beginning in the current year will use Morningstar. The Hemscott and Morningstar groups include most of the same financial institutions. Both peer groups are presented below for comparison purposes.
This presentation assumes that $100 was invested in shares of the relevant issuers on January 1, 2005, and that dividends received were immediately invested in additional shares. The graph plots the value of the initial $100 investment at one year intervals. For purposes of constructing this data, the returns of each component issuer have been weighted according to that issuer’s market capitalization.

Management’s Report on Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
33
Table of Contents
The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13(a) — 15 (f) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. In meeting its responsibility, management relies on its accounting and other related control systems. The internal control systems are designed to ensure that transactions are properly authorized and recorded in the Company’s financial records and to safeguard the Company’s assets from material loss or misappropriation.
Management of the Company, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, assessed the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009, using the criteria set forth inInternal Control — Integrated Frameworkissued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Our assessment included a review of the documentation of controls, evaluations of the design of the internal control system and tests of operating effectiveness of the internal controls. Based on the assessment, management has concluded that the Company had effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009. Our independent registered public accountants have issued an audit report on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Their report is on page 29 of the 2009 Annual Report.
