AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION The consolidated financial statements (the "Corporation") include the amounts and results of operations of American National Bankshares Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, American National Bank and Trust Company ("the Bank") and the Bank's two subsidiaries, ANB Mortgage Corp. and ANB Services Corp. 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 September 30, 2004; the consolidated statements of income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003; the consolidated statements of changes in shareholders' equity for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003; and the consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003. Operating results for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2004 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2004. 2. STOCK BASED COMPENSATION As of September 30, 2004 the Corporation had a stock-based compensation plan. The Corporation accounts for the plan under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations. No stock-based employee compensation cost is reflected in net income, as all options granted under the plan had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of the grant. The following illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2004 and 2003 had the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, been adopted.

SEGMENT AND RELATED INFORMATION In accordance with SFAS 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 fixed income investments is another major source of income. Loan fee income, service charges from deposit accounts and non-deposit fees such as automatic teller machine fees and insurance 12 commissions generate additional income for community banking. The assets and liabilities and operating results of the Bank's two subsidiaries, ANB Mortgage Corp. and ANB Services Corp., are included in the community banking segment. ANB Mortgage Corp. performs secondary mortgage banking and ANB Services Corp. performs retail investment and insurance sales. Trust and investment services provided to customers include estate planning, trust account management and 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. Unaudited segment information for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2004 and 2003 is shown in the following table (in thousands). The "Other" column includes corporate related 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. 13 Three Months Ended September 30, 2004 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Trust and Community Investment Intersegment Banking Services Other Eliminations Total --------- ---------- ------ ------------ -------- Interest income $ 7,409 $ - $ 11 $ (11) $ 7,409 Interest expense 1,783 - 11 (11) 1,783 Non-interest income - external customers 837 737 162 - 1,736 Non-interest income - internal customers - 12 - (12) - Operating income before income taxes 2,876 394 (9) - 3,261 Depreciation and amortization 349 5 2 - 356 Total assets 622,422 - 2,677 (1,660) 623,439 Capital expenditures 194 - - - 194 Three Months Ended September 30, 2003 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Trust and Community Investment Intersegment Banking Services Other Eliminations Total --------- ---------- ------ ------------ -------- Interest income $ 7,844 $ - $ 25 $ (25) $ 7,844 Interest expense 2,276 - 25 (25) 2,276 Non-interest income - external customers 898 625 277 - 1,800 Non-interest income - internal customers - 12 - (12) - Operating income before income taxes 2,969 335 92 - 3,396 Depreciation and amortization 395 6 2 - 403 Total assets 643,387 - 2,087 (1,438) 644,036 Capital expenditures 86 - - - 86 Nine Months Ended September 30, 2004 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Trust and Community Investment Intersegment Banking Services Other Eliminations Total --------- ---------- ------ ------------ -------- Interest income $ 22,400 $ - $ 41 $ (41) $ 22,400 Interest expense 5,612 - 41 (41) 5,612 Non-interest income - external customers 2,793 2,208 633 - 5,634 Non-interest income - internal customers - 36 - (36) - Operating income before income taxes 8,870 1,205 26 - 10,101 Depreciation and amortization 1,050 16 5 - 1,071 Total assets 622,422 - ,677 (1,660) 623,439 Capital expenditures 702 29 - - 731 Nine Months Ended September 30, 2003 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Trust and Community Investment Intersegment Banking Services Other Eliminations Total --------- ---------- ------ ------------ -------- Interest income $ 24,481 $ - $ 49 $ (49) $ 24,481 Interest expense 7,253 - 49 (49) 7,253 Non-interest income - external customers 2,341 1,878 658 - 4,877 Non-interest income - internal customers - 36 - (36) - Operating income before income taxes 8,862 949 136 - 9,947 Depreciation and amortization 1,187 18 5 - 1,210 Total assets 643,387 - 2,087 (1,438) 644,036 Capital expenditures 428 3 - - 431 14 ITEM 2. AMERICAN NATIONAL BANKSHARES INC. AND SUBSIDIARY MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS 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 "Bank"). The consolidated entity is referred to as the "Corporation." 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 and Bank. These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties and are based on the beliefs and assumptions of management of the Corporation and Bank and on information available at the time these statements and disclosures were prepared. Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from those expected include the following: o General economic conditions may deteriorate and negatively impact the ability of borrowers to repay loans and depositors to maintain account balances. o Plant closings or layoffs in the Bank's primary market area could occur, which might negatively impact the ability of borrowers to repay loans and depositors to maintain account balances. o Changes in interest rates could increase or reduce income. o Competition among financial institutions may increase. o The businesses that the Corporation and Bank are engaged in may be adversely affected by legislative or regulatory changes, including changes in accounting standards. o New products developed or new methods of delivering products could result in a reduction in business and income for the Corporation and Bank. o Adverse changes may occur in the securities market. 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 2003 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 our 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 our transactions would be the same, the timing of events that would impact our transactions could change. Allowance for Loan Losses The allowance for loan losses is an estimate of the losses that may be sustained in our loan portfolio. The allowance is based on two basic principles of accounting: (i) SFAS 5, Accounting for Contingencies, which requires that losses be accrued when they are probable of occurring and estimable and (ii) SFAS 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan, which requires that losses be accrued based on the differences between the value of collateral, present value of future cash flows, or values that are observable in the secondary market, and the loan balance. Our 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 when the 15 actual events occur. The formula allowance uses a historical loss view as an indicator of future losses along with various economic factors and, as a result, could differ from the loss incurred in the future. The specific allowance uses various techniques to arrive at an estimate of loss for specifically identified loans. Historical loss information, expected cash flows and fair market value of collateral are used to estimate these losses. The unallocated allowance captures losses whose impact on the portfolio have occurred but have yet to be recognized in either the formula or specific allowance. The use of these values is inherently subjective and our actual losses could be greater or less than the estimates. Stock Based Compensation The Corporation accounts for its stock compensation plan under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related Interpretations. No stock-based compensation cost is reflected in net income, as all options granted under the plan had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. Non-GAAP Presentations The management's discussion and analysis refers to the efficiency ratio, which is computed by dividing non-interest expense by the sum of net interest income on a tax equivalent basis and non-interest income. This is a non-GAAP financial measure which we believe provides investors with important information regarding our operational efficiency. Comparison of our efficiency ratio with those of other companies may not be possible because other companies may calculate the efficiency ratio differently. The Corporation, in referring to its net income, is referring to income under accounting principals generally accepted in the United States of America, or "GAAP". 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 On March 9, 2004, the SEC Staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 105, "Application of Accounting Principles to Loan Commitments" ("SAB 105"). SAB 105 clarifies existing accounting practices relating to the valuation of issued loan commitments, including interest rate lock commitments ("IRLC"), subject to SFAS No. 149 and Derivative Implementation Group Issue C13, "Scope Exceptions: When a Loan Commitment is included in the Scope of Statement 133." Furthermore, SAB 105 disallows the inclusion of the values of a servicing component and other internally developed intangible assets in the initial and subsequent IRLC valuation. The provisions of SAB 105 were effective for loan commitments entered into after March 31, 2004. The Corporation has adopted the provisions of SAB 105. Since the provisions of SAB 105 affect only the timing of the recognition of mortgage banking income, management does not anticipate that this guidance will have a material adverse effect on either the Corporation's consolidated financial position or consolidated results of operations. Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. (EITF) 03-1 "The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments" was issued and is effective March 31, 2004. The EITF 03-1 provides guidance for determining the meaning of "other-than-temporarily impaired" and its application to certain debt and equity securities within the scope of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115 "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities" ("SFAS No. 115") and investments accounted for under the cost method. The guidance requires that investments which have declined in value due to credit concerns or solely due to changes in interest rates must be recorded as other-than-temporarily impaired unless the Corporation can assert and demonstrate its intention to hold the security for a period of time sufficient to allow for a recovery of fair value up to or beyond the cost of the investment which might mean maturity. This issue also requires disclosures assessing the ability and intent to hold investments in instances in which an investor determines that an investment with a fair value less than cost is not other-than-temporarily impaired. 16 On September 30, 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board decided to delay the effective date for the measurement and recognition guidance contained in Issue 03-1. This delay does not suspend the requirement to recognize other-than-temporary impairments as required by existing authoritative literature. The disclosure guidance in Issue 03-1 was not delayed and is included in Note 3 of the consolidated financial statements. EITF No. 03-16, "Accounting for Investments in Limited Liability Companies was ratified by the Board and is effective for reporting periods beginning after June 15, 2004." APB Opinion No. 18, "The Equity Method of Accounting Investments in Common Stock," prescribes the accounting for investments in common stock of corporations that are not consolidated. AICPA Accounting Interpretation 2, "Investments in Partnerships Ventures," of Opinion 18, indicates that "many of the provisions of the Opinion would be appropriate in accounting" for partnerships. In EITF Abstracts, Topic No. D-46, "Accounting for Limited Partnership Investments," the SEC staff clarified its view that investments of more than 3 to 5 percent are considered to be more than minor and, therefore, should be accounted for using the equity method. Limited liability companies (LLCs) have characteristics of both corporations and partnerships, but are dissimilar from both in certain respects. Due to those similarities and differences, diversity in practice exists with respect to accounting for non-controlling investments in LLCs. The consensus reached was that an LLC should be viewed as similar to a corporation or similar to a partnership for purposes of determining whether a non-controlling investment should be accounted for using the cost method or the equity method of accounting. This had no material impact on the Corporation. Internet Access to Corporate Documents The Corporation provides access to its SEC filings through the corporate Web site at WWW.AMNB.COM. After accessing the Web site, the filings are available upon selecting the Investor Relations icon. Reports available include the annual report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K, and all amendments to those reports as soon as reasonably practicable after the reports are electronically filed with or furnished to the SEC.

On a basic and diluted per share basis, net earnings totaled $1.29 and $1.28, respectively, for the first nine months of 2004. This compared favorably to the basic and diluted earnings per share of $1.23 and $1.22, respectively, recorded for the first nine months of 2003. Both increases were due to an improvement in non-interest income which more than offset a decline in net interest income, combined with a lower number of shares outstanding due to stock repurchases under the Corporation's stock repurchase program. Return on average assets was 1.52% for both the first nine months of 2004 and 2003. Annualized return on average shareholders' equity was 13.42% and 13.39% for the first nine months of 2004 and 2003, respectively. Net income for the third quarter of 2004 was $2,339,000, a decrease of 2.7% over the $2,405,000 earned during the same period of 2003. The earnings decline is attributable to a $64,000, or 3.6%, decrease in non-interest income. Non-interest income for the same quarter in 2003 included $43,000 in net securities gains and $203,000 in mortgage banking fees which were earned during a time of significant refinance activity by homeowners. Mortgage banking fee income was $116,000 during the recently completed quarter. On a basic and diluted per share basis, net earnings totaled $0.42 for the third quarter of 2004, unchanged from the third quarter of 2003. Return on average total assets was 1.50% for the third quarter of 2004 compared to 1.52% for the same period in 2003. Return on average shareholders' equity was 13.11% and 13.78% for the third quarter of 2004 and 2003, respectively. NET INTEREST INCOME Net interest income, the Corporation's largest source of revenue, on a fully taxable equivalent ("FTE") basis was $16,788,000 for the nine month period ending September 30, 2004 compared to $17,228,000 for the same period of 2003, a decline of 2.6% or $440,000. The interest rate spread decreased to 3.55% from 3.67%, while the net interest margin decreased to 3.86% from 4.05% for the first nine months of 2004 compared to the same period of 2003. Net interest income declined due primarily to a reduction in the rates earned on loans and pay-downs on participation loans (portions of loans purchased from other banks). The loan pay-downs impacted the mix of earning assets; during the first nine months of 2003, loans accounted for 71% of earning assets, compared with 66% during the first nine months of 2004. Since loans are generally the Corporation's highest-yielding assets, this change in mix negatively impacted interest income. Quality loan growth remains the Corporation's number one priority. Average year-to-date interest-earning assets increased 2.7% or $16,134,000 while average interest-bearing liabilities grew 0.8%, or $3,647,000 between September 30, 2003 and September 30, 2004. During this time, low cost non-interest bearing demand deposit growth and increases in shareholders' equity funded the difference between earning asset growth and interest-bearing liabilities growth. The funding mix continued to shift to lower cost transaction accounts including savings accounts, interest-bearing demand deposits, non-interest bearing demand deposits, and retail repurchase agreements. This reflects the Corporation's strategy to grow low cost deposits by focusing on customer relationships. The Federal Reserve raised short-term interest rates three times between June 30, 2004 and September 21, 2004, for a total increase of .75%. This increased the interest income the Corporation earned in overnight funds, investment securities, and loans during the third quarter of 2004; as a result, the interest rate spread and the net interest margin improved to 3.63% and 3.94%, respectively. Net interest income for the third quarter of 2004 was $5,626,000, up 1.0% over the same quarter last year. The following tables (in thousands, except rates) demonstrate changes in net interest income and the related yields for the three and nine month periods of 2004 compared to similar prior year periods. Net interest income is on a taxable equivalent basis. Nonaccrual loans are included in average balances. 18 Net Interest Income and Rate / Volume Analysis For the Three Months Ended September 30, 2004 and 2003 Interest Average Balance Income/Expense Yield/Rate ------------------------- ------------------------ --------------------- 2004 2003 2004 2003 2004 2003 ---------- ---------- ---------- --------- -------- -------- Loans: Commercial $ 82,058 $ 116,289 $ 1,147 $ 1,659 5.59% 5.71% Real Estate 296,007 283,789 4,063 4,044 5.49 5.70 Consumer 16,904 26,068 388 592 9.18 9.08 ---------- ---------- ---------- --------- ------ ------ Total loans 394,969 426,146 5,598 6,295 5.67 5.91 ---------- ---------- ---------- --------- ------ ------ Securities: Federal agencies 99,313 71,808 798 560 3.21 3.12 Mortgage-backed 24,794 28,431 273 225 4.40 3.17 State and municipal 52,358 43,986 761 687 5.81 6.25 Other 20,103 21,665 227 295 4.52 5.45 ---------- ---------- ---------- --------- ------ ------ Total securities 196,568 165,890 2,059 1,767 4.19 4.26 ---------- ---------- ---------- --------- ------ ------ Deposits in other banks 6,751 13,636 24 33 1.42 .97 ---------- ---------- ---------- --------- ------ ------ Total interest-earning assets 598,288 605,672 7,681 8,095 5.14 5.35 ---------- --------- ------ ------ Other non-earning assets 24,033 26,168 ---------- ---------- Total assets $ 622,321 $ 631,840 ========== ========== Interest-bearing deposits: Demand $ 71,908 $ 63,856 66 45 .37 .28 Money market 49,638 47,618 91 110 .73 .92 Savings 83,879 82,118 108 150 .52 .73 Time 199,701 233,310 1,149 1,613 2.30 2.77 ---------- ---------- ---------- --------- ------ ------ Total interest-bearing deposits 405,126 426,902 1,414 1,918 1.40 1.80 Repurchase agreements 45,108 42,024 126 113 1.12 1.08 Other borrowings 20,530 21,152 243 245 4.73 4.63 ---------- ---------- ---------- --------- ------ ------ Total interest-bearing liabilities 470,764 490,078 1,783 2,276 1.51 1.86 ---------- --------- ------ ------ Demand deposits 77,043 69,565 Other liabilities 3,137 2,399 Shareholders' equity 71,377 69,798 ---------- ---------- Total liabilities and shareholders' equity $ 622,321 $ 631,840 ========== ========== Interest rate spread 3.63% 3.49% ====== ====== Net interest margin 3.94% 3.84% ====== ====== Reconcilement to GAAP -

The Bank's Credit Committee has responsibility for determining the level of the allowance for loan losses, subject to the review of the Board of Directors. Among other factors, the Committee on a quarterly basis considers the Corporation's historical loss experience, the size and composition of the loan portfolio, the value and adequacy of collateral and guarantors, non-performing credits including impaired loans, the Bank's loan "Watch" list, and national and local economic conditions. The provision for loan losses was $725,000 for the first nine months of 2004 versus $665,000 for the same period in 2003. Charged-off loans, net of recoveries of previously charged-off loans, were $418,000 for the first nine months of 2004 versus $220,000 for the same period in 2003. The annualized ratio of net charge-offs to average loans was .24% in 2004 and .07% in 2003. The allowance for loan losses was $5,599,000 at September 30, 2004 and $5,292,000 at December 31, 2003. The ratio of the allowance to loans was 1.42% at September 30, 2004 versus 1.30% at December 31, 2003. The allowance for loan losses increased due primarily to an increase in nonperforming loans as described in the Asset Quality section of this analysis. Management believes that the allowance for loan losses is adequate to absorb any inherent losses on existing loans in the Corporation's loan portfolio at September 30, 2004. More information regarding loan quality is provided in the Asset Quality section. NON-INTEREST INCOME Non-interest income for the first nine months of 2004 was $5,634,000, an increase of 15.5% from the $4,877,000 earned in the same period of 2003. The increase was due primarily to improvements in trust and investment services income and service charges on deposit accounts. Less significant increases included higher gains on the sales and calls of securities and on the disposition of real estate. Trust and investment services income of $2,208,000 during the first nine months of 2004 was up 17.6% compared to the same period in 2003 due to new trust business, improvements in the market value of the assets under management, and increased management fees. The Bank's trust division manages accounts whose market values approximated $349,000,000 at September 30, 2004, up from $320,000,000 at September 30, 2003. Service charges on deposit accounts grew 16.5% or $254,000 from the first nine months of 2003 to 2004. The majority of the increase came from a new consumer overdraft management product. Non-interest income declined $64,000, or 3.6%, from the third quarter of 2003 to 2004. The year-earlier quarter included $43,000 in net securities gains and $203,000 in mortgage banking fees which were earned during a time of significant refinance activity by homeowners. Mortgage banking fee income was $116,000 during the recently completed quarter. Changes in interest rates directly impact the volume of refinance activity and, in turn, the amount of mortgage banking fee income earned. NON-INTEREST EXPENSE Non-interest expense continues to be well contained. For the first nine months of 2004, non-interest expense was $11,596,000, a 0.9% increase from the $11,493,000 reported for the same period last year. Salary expense increased 4.5% to $5,469,000 while pension and other employee benefits decreased 10.1% to $1,261,000. The salary increase is due to general pay raises. Benefits expense declined due to a reduction in employee health care costs because of lower claims experience and reduced pension funding. Non-interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2004 was $3,846,000, an increase of 1.2% from the $3,802,000 reported for the same period of 2003. Salary expense accounted for the majority of the increase; this expense 21 was up 5.5% due to general pay raises and the hiring of new employees, including two employees in our Greensboro loan production office and two employees in our Martinsville trust office. Core deposit intangible amortization of $337,000 for the first nine months of 2004 and 2003 represents the amortization of the premium paid for deposits acquired at the Gretna office in 1995 and Yanceyville office in 1996. These are being amortized on a ten year straight-line basis. The efficiency ratio, a productivity measure used to determine how well non-interest expense is managed, was 50.45% and 50.19% for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively. A lower efficiency ratio generally indicates better expense efficiency. The Corporation's efficiency ratio is better than that of its peer group. INCOME TAX PROVISION The income tax provision for the first nine months of 2004 was $2,868,000, a decrease of $32,000 from the $2,900,000 reported a year earlier. The effective tax rate for the first nine months of 2004 was 28.4% compared to 29.2% for the same period of 2003. FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES GENERAL Loans declined $11,535,000, or 2.8% from December 31, 2003 to September 30, 2004 due primarily to strong competition in our market, pay-downs of participation loans, and more stringent underwriting requirements. Demand deposits increased $12,832,000 or 9.2% while money market deposits declined $8,112,000, or 13.7%. One large money market customer maintained a balance of $12,735,000 on December 31, 2003 and closed their account in May 2004 due to the sale of their business. Excluding this one account, money market deposits would have increased $4,623,000. Time deposits declined $22,009,000 due in large part to high rates of interest for certificates of deposit offered by competitors. During the first half of 2004, the Bank chose not to be aggressive in its certificate of deposit pricing, instead focusing on growth in low cost deposits. The Bank will continue to focus on growing low cost deposits through its business development efforts aimed at expanding customer relationships. ASSET QUALITY Non-performing loans include those 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. Non-performing assets are comprised of non-performing loans and foreclosed real estate. Loans in a non-accrual status at September 30, 2004 were $4,307,000 compared with $3,262,000 at December 31, 2003, and $2,612,000 on September 30, 2003. The increase from the year ago period is related to two commercial loan relationships. Both loan relationships are secured by a combination of business assets and real estate and both borrowers are making monthly payments. There were no loans classified as troubled debt restructurings on September 30, 2004, December 31, 2003 or September 30, 2003. The following table summarizes non-performing assets: September 30 December 31 September 30 2004 2003 2003 ------------ ----------- ------------ 90 days past due $ - $ 53 $ 362 Non-accrual 4,307 3,262 2,612 Foreclosed real estate 231 303 146 -------- -------- -------- Non-performing assets $ 4,538 $ 3,618 $ 3,120 ======== ======== ======== 22 Total non-performing loans as a percentage of total loans were 1.09% at September 30, 2004, 0.81% at December 31, 2003, and 0.71% at September 30, 2003. This increase directly correlates with the increase in the allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans. The gross amount of interest income that would have been recorded on non-accrual loans as of September 30, 2004, if all such loans had been accruing interest at the original contractual rate, was $86,000 for the nine month period ending September 30, 2004. An additional $37,000 of interest payments actually received on one non-accrual loan was recorded as interest income during the nine months ended September 30, 2004. No other interest payments on non-accrual loans were recorded as interest income during that reporting period. The Bank has a commercial real estate loan in the amount of $3,004,000 from a textile manufacturer who filed for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code on March 31, 2004. In conjunction with the filing, the borrower has secured debtor-in-possession financing from its primary lender. Under the current court order, the borrower is to make monthly interest payments to the Bank from the date of the filing, and such payments are current. The loan is secured by a first deed of trust on a commercial property recently appraised for an amount exceeding the loan balance. LIQUIDITY Management monitors and plans the Corporation's liquidity position for future periods. Liquidity is provided generally from loan payments, increases in customer deposits, lines of credit from two correspondent banks and one federal agency bank, and a structured maturity schedule of investments. Additionally, all securities classified as available for sale are eligible to satisfy liquidity needs. Management believes these factors provide sufficient and timely liquidity for the foreseeable future. Management also takes into account any liquidity needs generated by off-balance sheet transactions such as commitments to extend credit, commitments to purchase securities and standby letters of credit. The Corporation's net liquid assets, which includes cash and due from banks and unpledged debt securities, less the Bank's reserve requirement, to net liabilities ratio was 22.6% at September 30, 2004 and 21.9% at December 31, 2003. Both of these ratios reflect adequate liquidity for the respective periods. The Bank has a line of credit equal to 30% of assets with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta (FHLB) that equaled approximately $186,850,000 with $167,425,000 available at September 30, 2004. Should the Bank ever desire to increase its line of credit beyond the current 30% limit, the FHLB would allow borrowings of up to 40% of total assets once the Bank meets specific eligibility requirements. The Bank also has federal funds lines of credit facilities established with two other banks in the amounts of $12,000,000 and $5,000,000, and has access to the Federal Reserve Bank's discount window. Borrowings outstanding under the FHLB line of credit were $19,425,000 at September 30, 2004 and $21,000,000 at December 31, 2003. The Bank utilizes various borrowing plans to satisfy short term and long term funding needs. As of September 30, 2004, no short term borrowing was outstanding. The Bank had seven fixed rate term borrowing contracts outstanding with the following final maturities: Amount Expiration Date ----------- --------------- $ 2,000,000 July 2005 2,000,000 July 2006 1,000,000 July 2007 3,000,000 June 2008 5,000,000 August 2008 5,000,000 April 2009 1,425,000 March 2014 ----------- $19,425,000 =========== 23 OFF-BALANCE SHEET TRANSACTIONS The Corporation enters into certain financial transactions in the ordinary course of performing traditional banking services that result in off-balance sheet transactions. The off-balance sheet transactions as of September 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003 were commitments to extent credit and standby letters of credit only. Commitments to extend credit, which amounted to $139,787,000 at September 30, 2004 and $124,905,000 at December 31, 2003, represent legally binding agreements to lend to customers 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 liquidity requirements. Commitments to extend credit include the unfunded portion of customers' lines of credit. As of September 30, 2004 there was one commitment to purchase securities in the amount of $271,000. At December 31, 2003, there were no commitments outstanding to purchase securities. 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. At September 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, the Bank had $3,096,000 and $3,477,000, respectively, in outstanding standby letters of credit. CAPITAL RESOURCES During the third quarter of 2004, the Corporation declared and paid a quarterly cash dividend of $.20 per share. The dividend totaled $1,117,000 and represented a 47.8% payout of third quarter 2004 net income. During the first nine months of 2004, the Corporation declared and paid quarterly cash dividends of $.59 per share in aggregate. The dividend totaled $3,308,000 and represented a 45.7% payout of 2004 net income. On August 17, 2004, the Corporation's board of directors approved the extension of its stock repurchase plan, to include the repurchase of up to 250,000 shares of the Corporation's common stock between August 18, 2004 and August 16, 2005. The stock may be purchased in the open market and/or in privately negotiated transactions as management and the board of directors determine to be in the best interest of the Corporation. The number of shares repurchased during the current year was 32,200 in the first quarter, 43,368 in the second quarter, and 79,400 shares in the third quarter. 619,434 shares have been repurchased since August 16, 2000. Federal regulatory risk-based capital ratio guidelines require percentages to be applied to various assets including off-balance-sheet assets in relation to their perceived risk. Tier I capital includes shareholders' equity and Tier II capital includes certain components of nonpermanent preferred stock and subordinated debt. The Corporation had no preferred stock or subordinated debt outstanding. Banks and bank holding companies must have a Tier I capital ratio of at least 4% and a total ratio, including Tier I and Tier II capital, of at least 8%. As of September 30, 2004 the Corporation had a ratio of 15.88% for Tier I and a ratio of 17.13% for total capital. At December 31, 2003 these ratios were 14.85% and 15.99%, respectively. 24 ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK The effective management of market risk is essential to achieving the Corporation's objectives. Market risk reflects the risk of economic loss resulting from adverse changes in market prices and interest rates. This risk of loss can be reflected in diminished current market values and/or reduced potential net interest income in future periods. 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 Asset/Liability Investment Committee ("ALCO") is primarily responsible for establishing asset and liability strategies and for monitoring and controlling liquidity and interest rate risk. ALCO uses computer simulation analysis to measure the sensitivity of earnings and market value of equity to changes in interest rates. The projected changes in net interest income and market value of portfolio equity ("MVE") to changes in interest rates are calculated and monitored by ALCO as indicators of interest rate risk. The projected changes in net interest income and MVE to changes in interest rates at September 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003 were within compliance of established policy guidelines. These projected changes are based on numerous assumptions of growth and changes in the mix of assets or liabilities. Net interest income for the next twelve months is projected to increase when interest rates are higher than current rates and decrease when interest rates are lower than current rates. There have been no material changes in the Corporation's interest sensitivity position since December 31, 2003. Refer to the December 31, 2003 Annual Report on Form 10-K. ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES We maintain a system of internal controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance as to the reliability of our published financial statements and other disclosures included in this report. Within the 90 days prior to the date of this report, the Corporation carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Corporation's management, including the Corporation's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-14. Based upon that evaluation, the Corporation's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Corporation's disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information relating to the Corporation (including its consolidated subsidiaries) required to be included in periodic SEC filings. There have been no significant changes in the Corporation's internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to the date the Corporation carried out its evaluation. 25 PART II OTHER INFORMATION Item: 1. Legal Proceedings 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. 2.
