(the Registrant), was incorporated under the laws of the State of Ohio on January 8, 1992. The Registrant is registered under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (BHC Act). A substantial portion of the Registrant's revenue is derived from cash dividends paid by The Ohio Valley Bank Company, the Registrant's wholly-owned subsidiary (the Bank). The principal executive offices of the Registrant are located at 420 Third Avenue, Gallipolis, Ohio 45631. The Bank was organized on September 24, 1872, under the laws governing private banking in Ohio. The Bank was incorporated in accordance with the general corporation laws governing savings and loan associations of the State of Ohio on January 8, 1901. The Articles of Incorporation of the Bank were amended on January 25, 1935, for the purpose of authorizing the Bank to transact a commercial savings bank and safe deposit business and again on January 26, 1950, for the purpose of adding special plan banking. The Bank was approved for trust powers in 1980 with trust services first being offered in 1981. The Bank's deposits are insured up to applicable limits by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). The Registrant's wholly-owned subsidiary, Loan Central, Inc. (Loan Central), was formed on February 1, 1996. Loan Central was incorporated under the Ohio laws governing finance companies. The Registrant's wholly-owned subsidiary, The Jackson Savings Bank (Jackson), was acquired in a business combination accounted for using the pooling of interest method on December 15, 1998. Jackson was incorporated under the laws of the State of Ohio on January 1, 1899. Jackson's deposits are insured up to applicable limits by the FDIC. The Bank is engaged in commercial and retail banking. Loan Central is engaged in consumer finance. Jackson is engaged primarily in the business of accepting deposits and issuing first mortgage and consumer loans. Reference is hereby made to Item 1 (E), "Statistical Disclosure" and Item 8 of this Form 10-K for financial information pertaining to the Registrant's business through its subsidiaries. Description of Ohio Valley Banc Corp.'s Business The Registrant's business is incident to its 100% ownership of the outstanding stock of the Bank, Loan Central and Jackson. The Bank is a full-service financial institution offering a blend of commercial, retail and agricultural banking services. Loans of all types and checking, savings and time deposits are offered, along with such services as safe deposit boxes, issuance of travelers' checks and administration of trusts. Loan Central, a consumer finance company, offers smaller balance consumer loans to individuals with nonconforming or nontraditional credit history. Jackson, a state-chartered savings bank, principally offers first mortgage loans used to finance the purchase, construction or improvement of residential or other real property. In addition to originating loans, the Bank and Jackson invest in U.S. Government and agency obligations, interest-bearing deposits in other financial institutions and other investments permitted by applicable law. Page 3 PART I (continued) Revenues from loans accounted for 82.38% in 1999, 80.50% in 1998 and 80.62% in 1997 of total consolidated revenues. Revenues from interest and dividends on securities accounted for 10.36%, 12.23% and 13.79% of total consolidated revenues in 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The Bank presently has sixteen offices, all of which offer automatic teller machines. Seven of these offices also offer drive-up services. The Bank accounted for substantially all of the Registrant's consolidated assets at December 31, 1999. The banking business is highly competitive. The market area for the Bank and Jackson is concentrated primarily in the Gallia, Jackson, Pike and Franklin Counties of Ohio as well as the Mason, Kanawha and Cabell Counties of West Virginia. Some additional business originates from the surrounding Ohio counties of Meigs, Vinton, Scioto and Ross. Competition for deposits and loans comes primarily from local banks and savings associations, although some competition is also experienced from local credit unions, insurance companies and mutual funds. In addition, larger regional institutions, with substantially greater resources, are becoming increasingly visible. With the formation of Loan Central, the Registrant is better able to compete in Gallia, Jackson and Pike County by serving a consumer base which may not meet the Bank's credit standards. Loan Central also operates in Lawrence County which is outside the Bank's primary market area. In addition, the acquisition of Jackson has expanded the Registrant's market share in Jackson County by enhancing bank activities. The principal methods of competition are the rates of interest charged for loans, the rates of interest paid for deposits, the fees charged for services and the availability and quality of services. The business of the Registrant and its subsidiaries is not seasonal, nor is it dependent upon a single or small group of customers. The Bank and Jackson deal with a wide cross-section of businesses and corporations which are located primarily in southeastern Ohio. Few loans are made to borrowers outside this area. Lending decisions are made in accordance with written loan policies designed to maintain loan quality. The Bank originates commercial loans, commercial leases, residential real estate loans, home equity lines of credit, installment loans and credit card loans. The Bank believes that there is no significant concentration of loans to borrowers engaged in the same or similar industries and does not have any loans to foreign entities. Commercial lending entails significant risks as compared with consumer lending - - i.e., single-family residential mortgage lending, installment lending and credit card loans. In addition, the payment experience on commercial loans is typically dependent on adequate cash flows in order to evaluate whether anticipated future cash flows will be adequate to service both interest and principal due. Thus, commercial loans may be subject, to a greater extent, to adverse conditions in the economy generally or adverse conditions in a specific industry. The Registrant's subsidiaries make installment credit available to customers and prospective customers in their primary market area of southeastern Ohio. Credit approval for consumer loans requires demonstration of sufficiency of income to repay principal and interest due, stability of employment, a positive credit record and sufficient collateral for secured loans. It is the policy of the subsidiaries to adhere strictly to all laws and regulations governing consumer lending. A qualified compliance officer is responsible for monitoring the performance of their respective consumer portfolio and updating loan personnel. The Registrant's subsidiaries make credit life insurance and health and accident insurance available to all qualified buyers thus reducing their risk of loss when a borrower's income is terminated or interrupted. The Registrant's subsidiaries Page 4 PART I (continued) review their respective consumer loan portfolios monthly to charge off loans which do not meet that subsidiary's standards. Credit card accounts are administered in accordance with the same standards as applied to other consumer loans. Consumer loans generally involve more risk as to collectibility than mortgage loans because of the type and nature of collateral and, in certain instances, the absence of collateral. As a result, consumer lending collections are dependent upon the borrower's continued financial stability and thus are more likely to be adversely affected by job loss, divorce or personal bankruptcy and by adverse economic conditions. The market area for real estate lending by the Bank is also located in southeastern Ohio. The Bank generally requires that the loan amount with respect to residential real estate loans be no more than 89% of the purchase price or the appraisal value of the real estate securing the loan, unless private mortgage insurance is obtained by the borrower for the percentage exceeding 89%. These loans generally range from one year adjustable to thirty year fixed rate mortgages. The Bank is currently not originating mortgages for the secondary market. Real estate loans are secured by first mortgages with evidence of title in favor of the Bank in the form of an attorney's opinion of title or a title insurance policy. The Bank also requires proof of hazard insurance with the Bank named as the mortgagee and as loss payee. Home equity lines of credit are generally made as second mortgages by the Bank. The home equity lines of credit are written with ten year terms but are reviewed annually. A variable interest rate is generally charged on the home equity lines of credit. The Bank expanded its operations in December 1996 by introducing a supermarket branch in the Bank's existing market area of Gallia County to further enhance the Bank's customer service through extended hours and convenience. In January 1997, another branch was opened in Columbus, Ohio (Franklin County) which represented a new market area for the Bank. The Bank also converted its loan origination office in Point Pleasant, West Virginia to a full-service branch providing greater access to its current and future customers. The Bank continued this growth in 1998 by opening three additional SuperBank branches, two of which are located within Wal-Mart stores in Gallipolis, Ohio and Cross Lanes, West Virginia (Kanawha County), and the third branch located within a supermarket in Pomeroy, Ohio (Meigs County). In December 1998, the Registrant acquired Jackson, conducting business with one office in Jackson, Ohio, to further enhance banking activities in Jackson County. The expansion into newer market areas continued in 1999 with the acquisition of two Huntington National Bank (HNB) branches in Milton and Barboursville, West Virginia (Cabell County), with the Milton office offering a traditional-style service and the Barboursville office representing a SuperBank facility. The Bank continued its growth by adding two additional SuperBanks in South Charleston, West Virginia (Kanawha County) and South Point, Ohio (Lawrence County). To expand on Loan Central's success, a fourth office located in Waverly, Ohio (Pike County) opened for business in early 1999. To further strengthen its presence in the growing I-64 corridor of western West Virginia, the Bank's eighth SuperBank facility in Huntington (Cabell County) is expected to commence operations in the second quarter of 2000. Supervision and Regulation The following is a summary of certain statutes and regulations affecting the Registrant, Bank and Jackson. The summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to such statutes and regulations. Page 5 PART I (continued) The Registrant is a bank holding company under the BHC Act, which restricts the activities of the Registrant and the acquisition by the Registrant of voting shares or assets of any bank, savings association or other company. The Registrant is also subject to the reporting requirements of, and examination and regulation by, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the "Federal Reserve Board"). Subsidiary banks of a bank holding company are subject to certain restrictions imposed by the Federal Reserve Act on transactions with affiliates, including any loans or extensions of credit to the bank holding company or any of its subsidiaries, investments in the stock or other securities thereof and the taking of such stock securities as collateral for loans or extensions of credit to any borrower; the issuance of guarantees, acceptances or letters of credit on behalf of the bank holding company and its subsidiaries; purchases or sales of securities or other assets; and the payment of money or furnishing of services to the bank holding company and other subsidiaries. Bank holding companies are prohibited from acquiring direct or indirect control of more than 5% of any class of voting stock or substantially all of the assets of any bank holding company without the prior approval of the Federal Reserve Board. A bank holding company and its subsidiaries are prohibited from engaging in certain tying arrangements in connection with extensions of credit and/or the provision of other property or services to a customer by the bank holding company or its subsidiaries. In November of 1999, the Gramm-Leach-Bliley, or Financial Services Modernization Act was enacted, amending the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, modernizing the laws governing the financial services industry. This Act contains a variety of provisions of benefit to the banking industry, including language which greatly expands the powers of banks and bank holding companies by authorizing a bank holding company to affiliate with any financial company and cross-sell an affiliate's products, thus allowing such a company to offer its customers any financial product or service. The Act expands the number of permissible activities to include a wide variety of financial activities; any activity in the future not already included in the list that the Federal Reserve and the Treasury Department consider financial in nature or incidental to financial activities; and any activity that the Federal Reserve determines complementary to a financial activity and which does not pose a substantial safety and soundness risk. In addition, the Act fully closes the unitary thrift loophole which permits commercial companies to own and operate thrifts, reforms the Federal Home Loan Bank System to significantly increase community banks' access to loan funding and protects banks from discriminatory state insurance regulation. The Act also includes new provisions in the privacy area, restricting the ability of financial institutions to share nonpublic personal customer information with third parties. As Ohio state-chartered banks, the Bank and Jackson are supervised and regulated by the Ohio Division of Financial Institutions. The deposits of these banks are insured up to applicable limits by the FDIC and are subject to the applicable provisions of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act. In addition, the holding company of any insured financial institution that submits a capital plan under the federal banking agencies' regulations on prompt corrective action guarantees a portion of the institution's capital shortfall, as discussed below. Various requirements and restrictions under the laws of the United States and the State of Ohio affect the operations of the Bank including requirements to maintain reserves against deposits, restrictions on the nature and amount of loans which may be made and the interest that may be charged thereon, restrictions relating to investments and other activities, limitations on credit exposure to correspondent banks, limitations on activities based on capital and surplus, Page 6 PART I (continued) limitations on payment of dividends, and limitations on branching. Since June 1997, pursuant to federal legislation, the Bank and Jackson have been authorized to branch across state lines, unless the law of the other state specifically prohibits the interstate branching authority granted by federal law. The Federal Reserve Board has adopted risk-based capital guidelines for bank holding companies and for state member banks. The risk-based capital guidelines include both a definition of capital and a framework for calculating weighted risk assets by assigning assets and off-balance sheet items to broad risk categories. The minimum ratio of capital to risk weighted assets (including certain off-balance sheet items, such as standby letters of credit) is 8%. At least 4.0 percentage points is to be comprised of common stockholders' equity (including retained earnings but excluding treasury stock), noncumulative perpetual preferred stock, a limited amount of cumulative perpetual preferred stock, and minority interests in equity accounts of consolidated subsidiaries, less goodwill and certain other intangible assets ("Tier 1 capital"). The remainder ("Tier 2 Capital") may consist, among other things, of mandatory convertible debt securities, a limited amount of subordinated debt, other preferred stock and a limited amount of allowance for loan and lease losses. The Federal Reserve Board also imposes a minimum leverage ratio (Tier 1 capital to total assets) of 3% for bank holding companies and state member banks that meet certain specified conditions, including no operational, financial or supervisory deficiencies, and including having the highest regulatory rating. The minimum leverage ratio is 100-200 basis points higher for other bank holding companies and state member banks based on their particular circumstances and risk profiles and those experiencing or anticipating significant growth. State non-member banks, such as the Bank and Jackson, are subject to similar capital requirements adopted by the FDIC. The Registrant, Bank and Jackson currently satisfy all capital requirements. Failure to meet applicable capital guidelines could subject a banking institution to a variety of enforcement remedies available to federal and state regulatory authorities, including the termination of deposit insurance by the FDIC. The federal banking regulators have established regulations governing prompt corrective action to resolve capital deficient banks. Under these regulations, institutions which become undercapitalized become subject to mandatory regulatory scrutiny and limitations, which increase as capital continues to decrease. Such institutions are also required to file capital plans with their primary federal regulator, and their holding companies must guarantee the capital shortfall up to 5% of the assets of the capital deficient institution at the time it becomes undercapitalized. The ability of a bank holding company to obtain funds for the payment of dividends and for other cash requirements is largely dependent on the amount of dividends which may be declared by its subsidiary banks and other subsidiaries. However, the Federal Reserve Board expects the Registrant to serve as a source of strength to these banks, which may require them to retain capital for further investments in these banks, rather than for dividends for shareholders of the Registrant. These banks may not pay dividends to the Registrant if, after paying such dividends, they would fail to meet the required minimum levels under the risk-based capital guidelines and the minimum leverage ratio requirements. These banks must have the approval of their regulatory authorities if a dividend in any year would cause the total dividends for that year to exceed the sum of their current year's net profits and retained net profits for the preceding two Page 7 PART I (continued) years, less required transfers to surplus. Payment of dividends by these banks may be restricted at any time at the discretion of their regulatory authorities, if they deem such dividends to constitute an unsafe and/or unsound banking practice or if necessary to maintain adequate capital for these banks. These provisions could have the effect of limiting the Registrant's ability to pay dividends on its outstanding common shares. Deposit Insurance Assessments and Recent Litigation The FDIC is authorized to establish separate annual assessment rates for deposit insurance for members of the Bank Insurance Fund ("BIF") and the Savings Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF"). The Bank and Jackson are members of the BIF. The FDIC may increase assessment rates for either fund if necessary to restore the fund's ratio of reserves to insured deposits to its target level within a reasonable time and may decrease such rates if such target level has been met. The FDIC has established a risk-based assessment system for both BIF and SAIF members. Under this system, assessments vary based on the risk the institution poses to its deposit insurance fund. The risk level is determined based on the institution's capital level and the FDIC's level of supervisory concern about the institution. Because BIF became fully funded, BIF assessments for healthy commercial banks were reduced to $0 per year during 1999. Federal legislation, which became effective September 30, 1996, provides, among other things, for the costs of prior thrift failures to be shared by both the SAIF and the BIF. As a result of such cost sharing, BIF assessments for healthy banks during 2000 will be $0.021 per $100 in deposits. Based upon their level of deposits at December 31, 1999, the projected BIF assessments for the Bank and Jackson would be $82,698 and $3,232, respectively for 2000. Monetary Policy and Economic Conditions The business of commercial banks is affected not only by general economic conditions, but also by the policies of various governmental regulatory authorities, including the Federal Reserve Board. The Federal Reserve Board regulates the money and credit conditions and interest rates in order to influence general economic conditions primarily through open market operations in U.S. Government securities, changes in the discount rate on bank borrowings and changes in reserve requirements against bank deposits. These policies and regulations significantly influence the amount of bank loans and deposits and the interest rates charged and paid thereon, and thus have an effect on earnings. 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 have significant effects in the future. In view of the changing conditions in the economy and the money market and the activities of monetary and fiscal authorities, no definitive predictions can be made as to future changes in interest rates, credit availability or deposit levels. Other Information Management anticipates no material effect upon the capital expenditures, earnings and competitive position of the Registrant or its subsidiaries by reason of any laws regulating or protecting the environment. The Registrant believes that the nature of the operations of the subsidiaries has little, if any, environmental impact. The Registrant, therefore, anticipates no material capital expenditures for environmental control facilities in its current fiscal year or for Page 8 PART I (continued) the foreseeable future. The subsidiaries may be required to make capital expenditures related to properties which they may acquire through foreclosure proceedings in the future; however, the amount of such capital expenditures, if any, is not currently determinable. Neither the Registrant nor its subsidiaries have any material patents, trademarks, licenses, franchises or concessions. No material amounts have been spent on research activities and no employees are engaged full-time in research activities. As of December 31, 1999, the Registrant and its subsidiaries employed 254 persons full-time and 25 persons part-time. Management considers its relationship with its employees to be good. Financial Information About Foreign and Domestic Operations and Export Sales The Registrant's subsidiaries do not have any offices located in a foreign country and they have no foreign assets, liabilities, or related income and expense.
