The Company accounts for this plan under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 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 grant. The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if the company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, to stock-based employee compensation.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations The purpose of this discussion is to provide information about the financial condition and results of operations of National Bankshares, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (the Company), which are not otherwise apparent from the consolidated financial statements and other information included in this report. Reference should be made to the financial statements and other information included in this report as well as the 2002 Annual Report and Form 10-K for an understanding of the following discussion and analysis. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Company's actual results could differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements. Critical Accounting Policies General The Company's financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (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 either when earning income, recognizing an expense, recovering an asset or relieving a liability. We use historical loss factors as one factor in determining the inherent loss that may be present in our loan portfolio. Actual losses could differ significantly from the historical factors that we use. 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 estimatable 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 actual events occur. The formula allowance uses a historical loss view as an indicator of future losses and, as a result, could differ from the loss incurred in the future. However, since this history is updated with the most recent loss information, the errors that might otherwise occur are mitigated. The specific allowance uses various techniques to arrive at an estimate of loss. Historical loss information, expected cash flows and fair market value of collateral are used to estimate these losses. The use of these values is inherently subjective and our actual losses could be greater or less than the estimates. The unallocated allowance captures losses that are attributable to various economic 15 events, industry or geographic sectors whose impact on the portfolio have occurred but have yet to be recognized in either the formula or specific allowance. Core deposit intangibles Effective January 1, 2002, the Corporation adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. 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, Statement 142 requires that acquired intangible assets (such as core deposit intangibles) be separately recognized if the benefit of the asset can be sold, transferred, licensed, rented, or exchanged, and amortized over its estimated useful life. Branch acquisition transactions were outside the scope of the Statement and therefore any intangible asset arising from such transactions remained subject to amortization over their estimated useful life. In October 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 147, Acquisitions of Certain Financial Institutions. The Statement amends previous interpretive guidance on the application of the purchase method of accounting to acquisitions of financial institutions, and requires the application of Statement No. 141, Business Combinations, and Statement No. 142 to branch acquisitions if such transactions meet the definition of a business combination. The provisions of the Statement do not apply to transactions between two or more mutual enterprises. In addition, the Statement amends Statement No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Assets, to include in its scope core deposit intangibles of financial institutions. Accordingly, such intangibles are subject to a recoverability test based on undiscounted cash flows, and to the impairment recognition and measurement provisions required for other long-lived assets held and used. The Company has determined that the acquisitions that generated the intangible assets and goodwill on the consolidated balance sheets in the amount of $10,912 and $11,866 at December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively, did not constitute the acquisition of a business, and therefore will continue to be amortized. Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2003 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2003 was $2,632, which represents an increase of $528 or 25.10% when compared to the same period in 2002. The annualized return on average assets for the three months ended March 31, 2003 was 1.55% and 1.34% for March 31, 2002. The annualized return on average equity was 14.31% for the period ended March 31, 2003 and 12.77% for March 31, 2002. Earnings per share for the period ended March 31, 2003 was $0.75 and $0.60 in 2002 for the same period. Net Interest Income Net interest income at the end of the first quarter of 2003 was $6,998, an increase of $670 or 10.59% over the same period in 2002. Interest income decreased $118 or 1.11%, when the periods ending March 31, 2003 and 2002 are compared. Interest expense decreased $788, or 18.47%, when the two periods are compared. The yield on earning assets was 6.92%, decreasing 60 basis points from March 31, 2002. The cost to fund earning assets for the period ending March 31, 2003 was 2.15% or a 25 basis point decrease from the same period in 2002. This resulted in an increase in the net interest margin. Substantially lower funding costs due to the low rate environment accounted for most of the improvement in net interest income. 16 Following is a table showing the year-to-date average balances for interest-earning assets, interest-bearing liabilities and the related yield and cost.

Provision and Allowance for Loan Losses The adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is based on management's judgement and analysis of current and historical loss experience, risk characteristics of the loan portfolio, concentrations of credit and asset quality, as well as other internal and external factors such as general economic conditions. An internal credit review department performs pre-credit analyses of large credits and also conducts credit review activities that provide management with an early warning of asset quality deterioration. Changing trends in the loan mix are also evaluated in determining the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. The ratio of the allowance for loan losses to loans net of unearned income was 1.31% at March 31, 2003. This compares to 1.12% at March 31, 2002. The provision for the first three months of 2003 was $440, down $206 over the same period the prior year. While management continues to believe that overall credit quality remains satisfactory, the level of exposure to loss has increased, particularly in the loans to individuals category. In addition, much of the growth recently experienced has been in the commercial loan category. While the number of possible defaults would only constitute a small number of loans, the sizable dollar amount of the individual credits tends to increase the possibility of greater loss. Noninterest Income Noninterest income is an important source of the Company's income. This category is comprised of service charges on deposit accounts, other service charges and fees, credit card fees, trust income and other income. Net securities gains and losses are also included in this category. Noninterest income for the period ending March 31, 2003 and 2002 was $1,369. 17 Service charges on deposit accounts decreased $9 or 1.7%, a slight decrease when compared to the same period in 2002. Other service charges and fees increased $20 when March 31, 2003 and March 31, 2002 are compared. The majority of this increase came from credit life insurance commissions. Credit card fees increased $41, or 13.4%. This increase was the result of an increased volume of merchant and interchange fees. Trust income increased by 8.4% in 2003, when compared to the first three months of 2002. Trust income is dependent on market conditions as well as the types of accounts being handled at any given point in time. The level of estate business, for example, cannot be predicted with any degree of precision. Realized securities losses were $(9) for the first quarter of 2003. The net losses were primarily associated with the adjustment of the Company's investment in certain limited liability corporations. Noninterest Expense Noninterest expense for the period ended March 31, 2003 was $4,567, an increase of $178 or 4.1%. Salaries and employee benefits increased by $178 or 8.0% when the periods ended March 31, 2003 and 2002 are compared. Rising pension costs and normal salary adjustments accounted for the majority of the increase. Occupancy expenses increased $37 when the first quarters of 2003 and 2002 are compared. Equipment maintenance costs accounted for most of the increase. Data processing costs decreased $32 or 11.3%. A decrease in depreciation of $23 and a decline of $6 in data processing supplies accounted for a majority of the difference. Credit card processing increased $30 or 11.7% due to volume. As previously noted credit card income was also up for the year because of volume. Intangibles expense for the first quarters of 2003 and 2002 was $238. There were no impairment write downs during the first quarter. Other operating costs increased a nominal $43 or 4.8% when the periods March 31, 2003 and 2002 are compared. Balance Sheet Total assets at March 31, 2003 were $699,742, an increase of $14,807 or 2.2% from period end assets at December 31, 2002. This increase was primarily due to deposit growth, which was $12,502 or 2.1%. Securities Securities available for sale increased by 2.8%, while securities held to maturity increased 5.1%. (Refer to the table previously presented for portfolio composition.) Funds for these increases came primarily from deposit growth. Loans Loans net of unearned income grew by $736 or 0.18% from December 31, 2002. Since December 31, 2002, construction loans increased by $4,872 or 21.9%, 18 with real estate mortgage loans decreasing $1,298 or 1.58%. The commercial loan category grew by $1,203 or .57% due to demand. Loans to individuals declined by $4,215 or 4.4%. It is not known to what extent loans to individuals will ultimately decline or when growth in this area will resume, given the general economic conditions. Deposits Total deposits increased $12,502 or 2.1% when March 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002 are compared. Noninterest-bearing demand deposits increased $5,049 or 6.8% when March 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002 are compared. During the same period interest-bearing demand deposits increased by .6%, while savings deposits were up 3.1%. Time deposits rose by $4,939 or 1.5%. Daily Averages Daily averages for the major categories are as follows: (000's) March 31, 2003 December 31,2002 ------------------- --------------------- Loans, net $400,899 $404,717 Securities available for sale 120,678 96,877 Securities held to maturity 102,480 94,616 Total assets 687,922 655,783 Total deposits 610,397 583,298 Stockholders' equity 74,614 69,895 Liquidity Liquidity is the ability to provide sufficient cash levels to meet financial commitments and to fund loan demand and deposit withdrawals. Cash from operating activities was $2,912. The primary sources were net income and net sales of real estate loans held for sale. Cash used in investing activities was $13,542. As can be seen from the cash flow statement, the principal use of cash was for securities. Financing activities during the period produced $11,932 in cash, mainly due to an increase in deposits. Management is not aware of any commitments that will result in, or are likely to result in, a material and adverse decrease in liquidity. Capital Resources Total stockholders' equity increased by $2,625 from December 31, 2002 to March 31, 2003. Of that change, $(7) was due to the change in accumulated comprehensive income. Net income of $2,632 accounted for the remainder of the increase. The Company's risk based capital ratios at March 31, 2003 are as follows. Total capital 13.17% Tier I 13.06% Leverage ratio 9.39% The Company's banking affiliates continue to meet the regulatory criteria for well capitalized. 19 Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk Derivatives The Company is not a party to derivative financial instruments with off-balance sheet risks such as futures, forwards, swaps and options. The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risks such as commitments to extend credit, standby letters of credit, and recourse obligations in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. Management does not plan any future involvement in high risk derivative products. The Company has investments in collateralized mortgage obligations, structured notes and other similar instruments that are included in securities available for sale and securities held to maturity. The fair value of these investments at March 31, 2003 approximated $3,864. Amortized cost for these securities approximated $3,730. Interest Rate Sensitivity The Company considers interest rate risk to be a significant market risk and systems in place to measure the exposure of net interest income to adverse movement in interest rates. Interest rate shock analyses provides management with an indication of potential economic loss due to future rate changes. There have not been any changes, which would significantly alter the results disclosed as of December 31, 2002. Item 4.
