                              OHIO VALLEY BANC CORP
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                  (dollars in thousands, except per share data)
================================================================================

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accompanying  consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Ohio
Valley Banc Corp and its wholly owned subsidiaries The Ohio Valley Bank Company,
Loan Central,  Inc. and Ohio Valley Financial  Services Agency,  LLC.,  together
referred to as the Company. All material  intercompany accounts and transactions
have been eliminated in consolidation.

These interim  financial  statements are prepared  without audit and reflect all
adjustments of a normal  recurring  nature which,  in the opinion of Management,
are  necessary to present  fairly the  consolidated  financial  position of Ohio
Valley Banc Corp. at September 30, 2002,  and its results of operations and cash
flows  for  the  periods  presented.  The  accompanying  consolidated  financial
statements  do not purport to contain all the  necessary  financial  disclosures
required by  accounting  principles  generally  accepted in the United States of
America (US GAAP) that might  otherwise be necessary in the  circumstances.  The
Annual  Report for Ohio Valley Banc Corp for the year ended  December  31, 2001,
contains  consolidated  financial  statements  and related notes which should be
read in conjunction with the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

The accounting and reporting policies followed by the Company conform to US GAAP
and to general practices within the financial services industry. The preparation
of financial  statements in conformity with US GAAP requires  management to make
estimates  and  assumptions  that  affect  the  reported  amounts  of assets and
liabilities and disclosures of contingent  assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements.  Actual results could differ from those estimates. The
allowance for loan losses is particularly subject to change.

The  provision  for  income  taxes is based upon the  effective  income tax rate
expected to be applicable for the entire year.

For  consolidated  financial  statement  classification  and cash flow reporting
purposes,  cash and cash equivalents  include cash on hand,  noninterest-bearing
deposits  with  banks and  federal  funds  sold.  Generally,  federal  funds are
purchased and sold for one-day  periods.  The Company reports net cash flows for
customer loan  transactions,  deposit  transactions,  short-term  borrowings and
interest-bearing deposits with other financial institutions.

Earnings per share is computed based on the weighted average shares  outstanding
during the period.  Weighted  average  shares  outstanding  were  3,459,337  and
3,456,661 for the three months ending September 30, 2002 and September 30, 2001,
respectively.  Weighted average shares  outstanding were 3,459,768 and 3,467,768
for  the  nine  months  ending  September  30,  2002  and  September  30,  2001,
respectively.

The  majority of the  Company's  income is derived  from  commercial  and retail
business lending activities.  Management considers the Company to operate in one
segment, banking.

In June 2001, the Financial  Accounting  Standings Board (FASB) issued Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 141 "Business  Combinations".  SFAS
No. 141 requires all business  combinations within its scope to be accounted for
using the purchase  method,  rather than the  pooling-of-interests  method.  The
provisions of this statement apply to all business combinations  initiated after
June 30, 2001.  The adoption of this  statement  will only impact the  Company's
financial statements if it enters into a business combination.

                              OHIO VALLEY BANC CORP
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                  (dollars in thousands, except per share data)
================================================================================

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Also in June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 142,  "Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets",  which  addresses the accounting for such assets arising from prior and
future  business  combinations.  Upon the adoption of this  statement,  goodwill
arising  from  business  combinations  is no  longer  amortized,  but  rather is
assessed  regularly for  impairment,  with any such  impairment  recognized as a
reduction  to earnings in the period  identified.  Other  identified  intangible
assets,  such as core deposit intangible  assets,  continue to be amortized over
their estimated  useful lives.  The Company adopted this statement on January 1,
2002, and did not materially impact its financial statements.

On October 1, 2002, the Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board ("FASB")  issued
Statement of Financial Accounting  Standards ("SFAS") No. 147,  "Acquisitions of
Certain Financial  Institutions."  SFAS No. 147 is effective October 1, 2002 and
may be early  applied.  SFAS No. 147  supersedes  SFAS No. 72,  "Accounting  for
Certain  Acquisitions of Banking or Thrift  Institutions." SFAS No. 147 provides
guidance on the accounting for the acquisition of a financial  institution,  and
applies  to all  such  acquisitions  except  those  between  two or more  mutual
enterprises.  Under SFAS No.  147,  the excess of the fair value of  liabilities
assumed  over the fair  value  of  tangible  and  identified  intangible  assets
acquired in a financial  institution  business  combination  represents goodwill
that should be accounted for under SFAS No. 142,  "Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets." If certain criteria are met, the amount of the unidentified  intangible
asset  resulting from prior  financial  acquisitions  is to be  reclassified  to
goodwill  upon  adoption  of  this  Statement.  Financial  institutions  meeting
conditions  outlined in SFAS No. 147 are required to restate  previously  issued
financial statements. The objective of the restatement is to present the balance
sheet and income  statement as if the amount  accounted for under SFAS No. 72 as
an  unidentifiable  asset has been  reclassified  to goodwill as of the date the
Company  adopted  SFAS No. 142.  Adoption of SFAS No. 147 on October 1, 2002 did
not have a material effect on the Company's  consolidated  financial position or
results of operations. As of October 1, 2002, the Company reclassified $1,169 of
unidentifiable intangible assets to goodwill.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
         Results of Operations.

INTRODUCTION

The following discussion focuses on the consolidated financial condition of Ohio
Valley Banc Corp at September 30, 2002,  compared to December 31, 2001,  and the
consolidated  results of operations for the quarterly and  year-to-date  periods
ending September 30, 2002,  compared to the same periods in 2001. The purpose of
this  discussion is to provide the reader a more thorough  understanding  of the
consolidated financial statements. This discussion should be read in conjunction
with the interim consolidated financial statements and the footnotes included in
this Form 10-Q.

The  Registrant is not aware of any trends,  events or  uncertainties  that will
have or are  reasonably  likely  to have a  material  effect  on the  liquidity,
capital resources or operations except as discussed herein. Also, the Registrant
is not aware of any current  recommendations  by  regulatory  authorities  which
would have such effect if implemented.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

The  consolidated  total assets of Ohio Valley Banc Corp.  increased  $60,181 or
9.5% during the first nine months to reach  $695,180 at September 30, 2002.  The
factor  contributing  most to this growth in assets was loans which grew $51,906
or 10.2%.  This strong  growth in loans was funded  primarily by deposits  which
increased  $50,773 or 11.1% and the Company's  newest trust  preferred  security
issuance in the first quarter which totaled $8,500. A significant portion of the
deposit growth occurred in NOW accounts and time deposits.

During the first nine months of 2002,  loan growth was led by  commercial  loans
expanding  $30,203 or 17.4%.  This growth  came  mostly  from loan  originations
within the primary market areas of Gallia,  Jackson,  Pike and Franklin counties
in  Ohio  which  accounted  for  65%  of  the  total   increase.   In  addition,
approximately  22% of commercial  loan  originations  came from the growing West
Virginia market areas. For the same period,  consumer loans increased $18,326 or
16.9%.  Approximately  83% of this  increase  occurred  within  indirect  loans,
particularly  automobiles,  where  management  has been more  aggressive  in its
pricing of these  products.  Furthermore,  real estate  mortgages grew $3,551 or
1.6%,  with the largest  portion of growth  occurring  within the West  Virginia
market areas of Mason and Cabell county.

During the first nine months of 2002,  management  has  continued  to  emphasize
improving asset quality through  analysis of its loan portfolio in both the bank
and finance company operations.  This emphasis has prompted a $1,239 increase in
net charge offs consisting primarily of installment and commercial nonperforming
loans.  However,  the  Company's  nonperforming  loans  increased  to  $9,216 at
September  30, 2002  compared to $7,036 at September 30, 2001 and $6,310 at year
end 2001.  This  increase  in  nonperforming  loans  was the  result of a single
commercial  line  which  is  in  process  of  collection.  The  commercial  line
represented .79% of total loans, increasing the Company's nonperforming loans as
a percentage to total loans figure to 1.64% for the quarter ending September 30,
2002  compared to 1.42% at  September  30, 2001 and 1.24% at year end 2001.  The
allowance for loan losses was 1.25% of total loans at September 30, 2002,  which
included a specific  allocation of $450 for the commercial line mentioned above.

                                       11


The 1.25%  allowance for loan losses for September 30, 2002 compares to 1.21% at
September  30, 2001 and 1.23% at year end 2001.  Management  has  increased  the
ratio of  allowance to total loans based on an increase in  nonperforming  loans
and the  continued  uncertainty  of economic  conditions.  While  management  is
comfortable  that the allowance  for loan losses is adequate to absorb  probable
losses in the loan  portfolio,  management is prepared to increase the allowance
should economic conditions dictate.

Total deposit  growth during the first nine months of 2002 was primarily in time
deposits which increased  $33,489 or 12.6%.  This growth was partially driven by
increases in the Company's brokered certificates of deposit which totaled $7,186
through the first nine months of 2002.  To accompany  time deposit  growth,  the
Company also had strong growth in savings and  interest-bearing  demand deposits
which increased $17,581 or 13.3%. This growth, primarily in the Company's public
fund NOW and Gold Club  accounts,  is  related  to the  changing  interest  rate
environment  which has  influenced  customers  to  maintain  their funds in more
short-term,  highly liquid products such as the Bank's NOW transaction  account.
In addition,  non-interest  bearing  demand  deposits  have declined $297 or .5%
during the same period. Management has utilized the total deposit growth to help
fund the  growth in loans and to reduce  securities  sold  under  agreements  to
repurchase.

Other  borrowed  funds are  primarily  advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank,
which are used to fund loan growth or short-term liquidity needs. Other borrowed
funds are up slightly by $443 or .5% from December 31, 2001,  as management  has
shifted its focus back to funding  loan growth  through its  traditional  retail
sources  of funds in  certificates  of  deposit  since the cost of these  retail
sources  has  declined  significantly.  The  decrease  in other  borrowed  funds
occurred primarily in overnight borrowings. Additionally,  securities sold under
agreements to repurchase are down $3,111 from December 31, 2001. Furthermore, on
March 26,  2002,  the Company  completed an $8,500  issuance of trust  preferred
securities.  The proceeds  from this issuance were used to enhance the Company's
risk-based  capital  adequacy levels as well as support the growth of additional
earning assets, particularly the strong growth in loans.

Total shareholders'  equity at September 30, 2002 of $49,149 was up by $2,849 as
compared to the balance of $46,300 on December  31, 2001.  Contributing  most to
this increase was  year-to-date  income of $4,014 plus proceeds of $568 from the
issuance  of common  stock  through  the  dividend  reinvestment  plan less cash
dividends paid of $1,729, or $.50 per share  year-to-date.  While cash dividends
represented  43.1% of  year-to-date  income,  dividends net of proceeds from the
dividend reinvestment plan represented 28.9% of year-to-date income.  Management
has  continued to utilize the  Company's  stock  repurchase  program to meet the
demand for DRIP shares as well as other corporate  purposes.  Year-to-date stock
repurchases totaled $402;  year-to-date dividend reinvestment plan contributions
totaled $846.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Ohio Valley  Banc Corp's net income was $1,410 for the third  quarter and $4,014
for the first nine months of 2002, up by 15.6% and 15.3%  compared to $1,220 and
$3,482 for the same periods in 2001. Comparing  year-to-date  September 30, 2002
to September 30, 2001,  return on assets  increased from .80% to .81% and return
on equity increased from 10.35% to 11.33%.  Third quarter earnings per share was
$.41 per share, up 17.1% over last year's $.35 per share.  During the first nine
months of 2002,

                                       12


earnings  per share was $1.16 per  share,  up 16.0% from last  year's  $1.00 per
share. The primary contributor to the gain in net income was strong net interest
income growth which exceeded the third quarter and  year-to-date of last year by
$745 and $2,859.

The third quarter and year-to-date increases to net interest income of 12.2% and
16.8% were  primarily due to the declines in total  interest  expense of $785 or
12.9% and $2,793 or 15.1% versus  relatively no change in total interest  income
due to strong loan growth.  Earning assets,  driven by loans,  increased $58,362
from  December  31, 2001 and  represented  93.9% of total  assets as compared to
93.6% at year end 2001. The declines in interest  expense were largely  impacted
by a 125 basis  point  decline in the Bank's  average  funding  costs due to the
current  interest  rate  environment.  As a result,  the  Company's net interest
margin  improved to 4.36% for the first nine months of 2002 from 4.28% the prior
year. For additional  discussion on the Company's  rate  sensitivity  assets and
liabilities,  please see Item 3,  Quantitative and Qualitative  Disclosure About
Market Risk on page 15.

The  increases in net  interest  income for the third  quarter and  year-to-date
periods of 2002 were partially offset by increases to provision  expense of $449
and $1,330 for the same periods as compared to 2001.  The increases to provision
expense were in large part from the  significant  increases  in net  charge-offs
recognized for the same periods which,  as discussed  earlier,  are necessary to
assist management in enhancing asset quality and lowering credit risk associated
with the Company's loan  portfolio.  The increases in net interest  income after
provision for the third quarter and year-to-date  periods of 2002 were partially
offset by  increases in net  noninterest  expense of $21 or .6% and $755 or 7.5%
for the same periods as compared to 2001.  Total  noninterest  income  increased
$152 or 11.9% for the third  quarter  and $368 or 9.8% for the first nine months
in 2002 as compared to the same periods in 2001.  Contributing most to this gain
were earnings from bank owned life  insurance  contracts,  service charge income
due to growth  in  transaction  account  volume  and loan  service  fees.  Total
noninterest  expense  increased  $173 or 3.8% and  $1,123  or 8.1% for the third
quarter and  year-to-date  periods of 2002 as  compared  to the same  periods in
2001.  Contributing  most to this third quarter and  year-to-date  increase were
salaries and employee benefits, the Company's largest noninterest expense, which
increased $262 or 10.6% and $628 or 8.5%. These increases were related to annual
merit increases on employee  evaluations,  incentive-based  compensation and the
rising cost of medical insurance. Further impacting the year-to-date results was
the second  quarter  charge off of  fraudulent  checks with the  impact,  net of
recoveries,  being $389 on other noninterest  expense.  Management  continues to
actively seek recoveries  related to this charge off. The remaining  noninterest
expense categories have increased minimally from 2001.

Cash  dividends  paid of $1,729 for the first nine months of 2002  represents  a
6.0% increase over the cash  dividends  paid during the same period in 2001. The
increase in cash  dividends  paid is largely due to the increase in the dividend
rate  paid  per  share.  At  September  30,  2002,   approximately  73%  of  the
shareholders  were  enrolled in the dividend  reinvestment  plan. As part of the
Company's  stock  repurchase  program,   management  has  continued  to  utilize
reinvested dividends and voluntary cash to purchase shares on the open market to
be redistributed through the dividend reinvestment plan.

LIQUIDITY

Liquidity  relates to the Bank's  ability  to meet the cash  demands  and credit
needs of its customers and is provided by the ability to readily  convert assets
to cash and raise funds in the market  place.  Total cash and cash  equivalents,
interest-bearing  deposits  with  banks,  held-to-maturity  securities  maturing
within one year and securities  available-for-sale  of $98,539 represented 14.2%
of total assets at September 30, 2002.  In addition,  the Federal Home Loan Bank
in  Cincinnati  offers  advances to the Bank which  further  enhances the Bank's
ability to meet liquidity demands.  At September 30, 2002, the Bank could borrow
an  additional  $47  million  from the  Federal  Home  Loan  Bank.  The  Company
experienced  an  increase  of $5,604 in cash and cash  equivalents  for the nine
months ended  September 30, 2002.  See the condensed  consolidated  statement of
cash flows on page 4 for further cash flow information.

CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

The Company  maintains a diversified  credit  portfolio,  with real estate loans
comprising the most  significant  portion.  Credit risk is primarily  subject to
loans made to businesses  and  individuals in central and  southeastern  Ohio as
well as western West  Virginia.  Management  believes this risk to be general in
nature,  as there are no  material  concentrations  of loans to any  industry or
consumer  group.  To the  extent  possible,  the  Company  diversifies  its loan
portfolio to limit credit risk by avoiding industry concentrations.

                              MATURITY ANALYSIS

================================================================================

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk (continued)

Based on the rate  sensitivity  analysis,  the Company is  liability  sensitive,
which would benefit the Company in a declining  rate  environment.  Based on low
interest  rates,  management  has taken steps to guard against  rising  interest
rates.  Management has been offering fixed rate mortgage loans to be sold on the
secondary market. Historically,  the Company originated all mortgage loans to be
held in its own  portfolio.  Furthermore,  management  has  extended the average
maturity of its funding sources by offering longer term  certificates of deposit
and borrowing  wholesale funds for longer time periods.  The result of the above
strategies that were implemented starting last year is less exposure to interest
rate risk.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Within the 90-day period prior to the filing date of this report,  an evaluation
was carried out under the supervision and with the  participation of Ohio Valley
Banc Corp.'s management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Treasurer, of
the  effectiveness  of our  disclosure  controls and  procedures  (as defined in
Exchange Act Rules 13a-14(c) and 15d-14(c) under the Securities  Exchange Act of
1934). Based on their evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Treasurer have
concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are, to the best
of  their  knowledge,  effective  to  ensure  that  information  required  to be
disclosed by Ohio Valley Banc Corp.  in reports  that it files or submits  under
the Exchange Acts is recorded,  processed,  summarized  and reported  within the
time periods  specified in Securities and Exchange  Commission  rules and forms.
Subsequent  to the date of their  evaluation,  our Chief  Executive  Officer and
Treasurer have  concluded that there were no significant  changes in Ohio Valley
Banc Corp.'s  internal  controls or in other  factors  that could  significantly
affect its internal  controls,  including any corrective  actions with regard to
significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.
