MESSAGE FROM MANAGEMENT by CEO/President Jeff Smith & Chairman Jim Dailey Dear Shareholders, With business often moving at the speed of light, do we take enough time with the details? The 2002 passage of the SEC's Sarbanes-Oxley Act ordered executives and directors to take time to earnestly look at the ethical standards of the companies they represent. At OVBC there was no regrouping, no compliance rush, and no "cleaning house". Many requirements handed down by Sarbanes-Oxley were put in place more than a decade ago when Ohio Valley Banc Corp was formed. Those familiar with banking have heard the terms "truth in lending" and "truth in savings", the business world is finally catching on to what banks have always known. They are effectively establishing their own rules for "truth in business". Honesty is and has always been the foundation of our business. How can a bank, finance, or insurance company operate without honesty and trust between the customers and management? After all, our customers trust us everyday with their life savings, their most valuable possessions, and even their homes. We are extremely proud of the 268 trustworthy employees whom produced more than $5.6 million in net income and increased your earnings per share by 16%. We are encouraged by the prospects of 2003 as we make plans to introduce new products and improve facilities. We are also encouraged by your continued support; demonstrated by an impressive 98 new dividend reinvestment enrollments during 2002. At a time when many other companies' stockholders questioned their holdings, OVBC's reinvested more than $ 1 million through the Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase plan. During 2002 we not only took the time to look into the details of your company's performance and ethical standards, but regrettably, we had to take time to say goodbye to a great man. An affable leader, a keen businessman, and a loyal friend...Ohio Valley Bank lost all of these in November of 2002 with the passing of Morris Haskins. Haskins served OVB for over 60 years. During his presidency, he could most often be spotted in the lobby shaking the hands of the "most important people in the world, his customers". Morris will be greatly missed by his OVB family and community. Please take some time to enjoy this year's Annual Meeting. We hope to see you there. Sincerely, Jeffrey E. Smith President and CEO James L. Dailey Chairman of the Board OVB History On September 24, 1872, the organizational meeting of the bank was called. Rooms on Second Avenue in Gallipolis, Ohio were acquired by the organization and on the first of November, 1872, the bank was opened in those rooms. The Ohio Valley Bank had expanded its business to such a degree that it quickly outgrew these rooms. A new building was constructed in 1896 on the corner of Second Avenue and State Street in Gallipolis. At the time it was the tallest building in Gallipolis. This building was continually remodeled until the construction of the Bank's present Main Office in 1961. This modern banking facility boasted the first drive-thru windows and free customer parking in Gallia County. Ohio Valley Bank's first branch opened in 1970 with the completion of an office in Rio Grande, Ohio, adjacent to the University of Rio Grande campus. Gallia County's very first ATM was installed at the Mini Bank in 1979. The bank's first venture into banking outside the county line took place in 1991. Ohio Valley Bank acquired Civic Federal Savings Banks in Gallipolis, Jackson and Waverly, Ohio. Shortly after, the Ohio Valley Banc Corp commenced operation as a one-bank holding company, with Ohio Valley Bank Company being a wholly-owned subsidiary. A regional revolution in banking hours occurred with the opening of the OVB SuperBank in late 1996. This first SuperBank, located just inside Foodland, a downtown Gallipolis grocery, was the first to be open until eight each evening and stay open on Saturday and Sunday. Once again, Ohio Valley Bank brought a first to its community. Banking laws changed in 1997, permitting the state-chartered bank to have full service banks in West Virginia. The Bank, which already operated a loan origination office in Point Pleasant, West Virginia was already in position to make yet another mark in history. Ohio Valley Bank established the first interstate bank between Ohio and West Virginia. Ohio Valley Bank went online on June 1, 2000, with www.ovbc.com. The year of 2001 was a year of strategy and planning at the Bank. However, even the wisest, most experienced banker could not predict what was to come. The terrorist act of September 11, 2001, was felt by the entire nation. For the first time in the company's history, its directors approved a special "Freedom Dividend" to be given to shareholders. Through the "Freedom Dividend" over half a million dollars was reinvested in OVBC's shareholders. During 2002 Ohio Valley Bank's Website, www.ovbc.com, received a Standard of Excellence Award during the Web Marketing Association's 2002 WebAwards. OVBC also received a major award in 2002. Ohio Valley Banc Corp was again named as one of the Cleveland Plain Dealer 100, a listing of Ohio's top performing companies. OVBC and its subsidiaries remain strong. On September 16, just a little over a year after the 9-11 tragedy, Loan Central opened a new office in Wheelersburg, Ohio. INVESTOR INFORMATION VITAL STATISTICS > Record earnings for 10 consecutive years > Earnings per share for 2002 represented an increase of 16.3% over last year. > Approximately $696 million in assets BUSINESS PROFILE Ohio Valley Banc Corp commenced operations on October 23, 1992, as a one-bank holding company with The Ohio Valley Bank Company being the wholly-owned subsidiary.

accompanying notes to consolidated financial statements 5 NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Amounts are in thousands, except share and per share data NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Principles of Consolidation: The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Ohio Valley Banc Corp. (the Company) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, The Ohio Valley Bank Company (the Bank), Loan Central, a consumer finance company, Ohio Valley Financial Services Agency, LLC, an insurance company, and Ohio Valley Statutory Trusts I and II, special purpose financing entities. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Industry Segment Information: The Company is primarily engaged in the business of commercial and retail banking and trust services, with operations conducted through 22 offices located in central and southeastern Ohio as well as western West Virginia. These communities are the source of substantially all of the Company's deposit, loan and trust services. 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. Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Areas involving the use of management's estimates and assumptions that are more susceptible to change in the near term involve the allowance for loan losses, the fair value of certain securities, the fair value of financial instruments and the determination and carrying value of impaired loans. Cash and Cash Equivalents: 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. Securities: The Company classifies securities into held-to-maturity and available-for-sale categories. Held-to-maturity securities are those which the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity and are reported at amortized cost. Securities classified as available-for-sale include marketable equity securities and other securities that management intends to sell or that could be sold for liquidity, investment management or similar reasons even if there is not a present intention of such a sale. Available-for-sale securities are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains or losses included as a separate component of equity, net of tax. Other securities such as Federal Home Loan Bank stock are carried at cost. Premium amortization is deducted from, and discount accretion is added to, interest income on securities using the level yield method. Gains and losses are recognized upon the sale of specific identified securities on the completed transaction basis. Securities are written down to fair value when a decline in fair value is not temporary. Loans: Loans are reported at the principal balance outstanding, net of unearned interest, deferred loan fees and costs, and an allowance for loan losses. Interest income is reported on the interest method and includes amortization of net deferred loan fees and costs over the loan term. Interest income is not reported when full loan repayment is in doubt, typically when the loan is impaired or payments are past due over 90 days. Payments received on such loans are reported as principal reductions. Allowance for Loan Losses: Because some loans may not be repaid in full, an allowance for loan losses is recorded. Increases to the allowance are recorded by a provision for loan losses charged to expense. Estimating the risk of loss and the amount of loss on any loan is necessarily subjective. Accordingly, the allowance is maintained by management at a level considered adequate to cover losses that are probable based on past loss experience, general economic conditions, information about specific borrower situations, including their financial position and collateral value, and other factors and estimates which are subject to change over time. While management may periodically allocate portions of the allowance for specific problem situations, the entire allowance is available for any charge-offs that occur. A loan is charged off by management as a loss when deemed uncollectable, although collection efforts continue and future recoveries may occur. Loans are considered impaired if full principal or interest payments are not anticipated. Impaired loans are carried at the present value of expected cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate or at the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. A portion of the allowance for loan losses is allocated to impaired loans. Smaller-balance homogeneous loans are evaluated for impairment in total. Such loans include residential first mortgage loans secured by one-to-four family residences, residential construction loans, credit card and automobile, home equity and second mortgage loans. Commercial loans and mortgage loans secured by other properties are evaluated individually for impairment. When analysis of borrower operating results and financial condition indicates that underlying cash flows of the borrower's business are not adequate to meet its debt service requirements, the loan is evaluated for impairment. Loans are generally moved to nonaccrual status when 90 days or more past due. These loans are often also considered impaired. Impaired loans, or portions thereof, are charged off when deemed uncollectable. This typically occurs when the loan is 120 or more days past due. 6 NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Concentrations of Credit Risk: The Company, through its subsidiaries, grants residential, consumer and commercial loans to customers located primarily in the southeastern Ohio and western West Virginia areas. The following represents the composition of the loan portfolio at December 31, 2002: % of Total Loans ---------------- Real Estate loans 40.07% Commercial and industrial loans 36.73% Consumer loans 22.99% All other loans .21% ---------------- 100.00% ================ Approximately 4.16% of total loans are unsecured. The Bank, in the normal course of its operations, conducts business with correspondent financial institutions. Balances in correspondent accounts, investments in federal funds, certificates of deposit and other short-term securities are closely monitored to ensure that prudent levels of credit and liquidity risks are maintained. At December 31, 2002, the Bank's primary correspondent balances were $4,625 in Federal funds sold at National City Bank, Cleveland, Ohio and $9,412 on deposit at the Federal Reserve Bank, Cleveland, Ohio. Premises and Equipment: Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed on the declining balance and straight-line methods over the estimated useful lives of the various assets. Maintenance and repairs are expensed and major improvements are capitalized. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the course of the related lease. Other Real Estate: Real estate acquired through foreclosure or deed-in-lieu of foreclosure is included in other assets. Such real estate is carried at the lower of investment in the loan or estimated fair value of the property less estimated selling costs. Any reduction to fair value at the time of acquisition is accounted for as a loan charge-off. Any subsequent reduction in fair value is recorded as a loss on other assets. Costs incurred to carry other real estate are charged to expense. Other real estate owned totaled $440 at December 31, 2002 and $289 at December 31, 2001. Transfers of loans to other real estate were $521 in 2002 and $443 in 2001. Long-term Assets: Premises and equipment and other long-term assets are reviewed for impairment when events indicate their carrying amount may not be recoverable from future undiscounted cash flows. If impaired, the assets are recorded at discounted amounts. Repurchase Agreements: Substantially all repurchase agreement liabilities represent amounts advanced by various customers. Securities are pledged to cover these liabilities, which are not covered by federal deposit insurance. Per Share Amounts: Earnings per share is based on net income divided by the following weighted average number of shares outstanding during the periods: 3,458,300 for 2002, 3,461,856 for 2001 and 3,516,205 for 2000. The Company had no dilutive securities outstanding for any period presented. Income Taxes: Income tax expense is the sum of the current year income tax due or refundable and the change in deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities, computed using enacted tax rates. A valuation allowance, if needed, reduces deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Comprehensive Income: Comprehensive income consists of net income and other comprehensive income. Other comprehensive income includes unrealized gains and losses on securities available-for-sale which are also recognized as separate components of equity. Loss Contingencies: Loss contingencies, including claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business, are recorded as liabilities when the likelihood of loss is probable and an amount or range of loss can be reasonably estimated. Management does not believe there now are such matters that will have a material effect on the financial statements. Bank Owned Life Insurance: The Company has purchased life insurance policies on certain officers. These policies are recorded at their cash surrender value, or the amount that could be realized. ESOP: Compensation expense is based on the market price of shares as they are committed to be allocated to participant accounts. New Accounting Pronouncements: Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets and SFAS No. 147, Acquisition of Certain Financial Institutions. In accordance with these standards, the Company reclassified intangible assets associated with a certain branch acquisition to goodwill and ceased amortizing goodwill. Annual impairment testing is required for goodwill with impairment being recorded if the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value. See Note R for discussion of the impact of adopting these standards. 7 NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations. This statement addresses financial accounting and reporting for legal obligations associated with sale, abandonment, disposal, recycling or other than temporary removal from service of tangible long-lived assets. SFAS No. 143 requires an asset obligation to be recognized at fair value when it is incurred, if a reasonable estimate of its fair value can be made at the time. Otherwise, the obligation should be recorded as soon as its fair value can be reasonably estimated. This statement, which is effective for the Company on January 1, 2003, is not expected to have a material impact on the Company. Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment and Disposal of Long-Term Assets. This statement eliminates the requirement that the allocation of goodwill to long-lived assets be tested for impairment and details both a probability-weighted and "primary asset" approach to estimated cash flows in testing for impairment of a long-lived asset. Adoption of SFAS No. 144 did not have a material impact on the Company. In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities. This Statement addresses the timing of recognition of a liability for exit and disposal cost at the time a liability is incurred, rather than at a plan commitment date, as previously required. Exit or disposal costs will be measured at fair value, and the recorded liability will be subsequently adjusted for changes in estimated cash flows. This Statement is required to be effective for exit or disposal activities entered after December 31, 2002, and early adoption is encouraged. The Company does not believe this statement will have a material effect on its financial position or results of operations. Reclassifications: The consolidated financial statements for 2001 and 2000 have been reclassified to conform with the presentation for 2002. Such reclassifications had no effect on the net results of operations.

NOTE I - OBLIGATED MANDATORILY REDEEMABLE CAPITAL SECURITIES OF SUBSIDIARY TRUST On March 26, 2002, the Company completed an issuance of $8,500 at a current variable rate of 5.0% obligated mandatorily redeemable capital securities of a subsidiary trust (Trust Preferred Securities) through a newly formed, wholly-owned subsidiary, Ohio Valley Statutory Trust II (the "Trust Issuer"). The Trust Issuer invested the total proceeds from the sale of trust preferred securities in a long-term subordinated debenture issued by the Company with a current variable rate of 5.0% and a mandatory redemption date of March 26, 2032. However, beginning March 26, 2007, the Company may, at its option, redeem all or a portion of these trust preferred securities at par value. The Company used the net proceeds from the sale of these securities to provide additional capital to the Bank to support growth. Debt issuance costs of $256 were incurred and capitalized and will amortize as a yield adjustment through expected maturity. On September 7, 2000, the Company completed the issuance of $5,000 at 10.60% trust preferred securities through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Ohio Valley Statutory Trust I (the "Trust Issuer"). The Trust Issuer invested the total proceeds from the sale of trust preferred securities in a long-term subordinated debenture issued by the Company with a fixed rate of 10.60% and a maturity date of September 7, 2030. However, beginning September 7, 2010, the Company may, at its option, redeem all or a portion of these trust preferred securities at a premium of 105.30% with the call price declining .53% per year until reaching a call price of par at year twenty through maturity. The Company used the net proceeds from the sale of these securities to help fund the Company's year-end insurance investments, help continue the Company's stock repurchases and provide additional capital to the Bank to support growth. Debt issuance costs of $166 were incurred and capitalized and will amortize as a yield adjustment through expected maturity. The trust preferred securities were unsecured at December 31, 2002. A description of the trust preferred securities currently outstanding at December 31, 2002 is presented below: Current Issuing Date of Interest Mandatory Principal Entity Issuance Rate Redemption Date Balance - ------------------- ----------------- -------- ----------------- --------- Ohio Valley March 26, 2002 5.00% March 26, 2032 $8,500 Statutory Trust II Ohio Valley September 7, 2000 10.60% September 7, 2030 $5,000 Statutory Trust I 12 NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE J - INCOME TAXES The provision for federal income taxes consists of the following components: 2002 2001 2000 ---- ---- ---- Current tax expense $2,667 $2,278 $2,012 Deferred tax (benefit) (392) (368) (292) ------ ------ ------ Total federal income taxes $2,275 $1,910 $1,720 ====== ====== ====== The sources of gross deferred tax assets and gross deferred tax liabilities at December 31: 2002 2001 ---- ---- Items giving rise to deferred tax assets: Allowance for loan losses in excess of tax reserve $2,251 $1,857 Deferred compensation 709 599 Depreciation 10 Other 76 96 Items giving rise to deferred tax liabilities: Investment accretion (63) (40) Depreciation (19) FHLB stock dividends (620) (544) Unrealized gain on securities available-for-sale (739) (537) Other (24) ------ ------ Net deferred tax asset $1,600 $1,412 ====== ====== The difference between the financial statement tax provision and amounts computed by applying the statutory federal income tax rate of 34% to income before taxes is as follows: 2002 2001 2000 ---- ---- ---- Statutory tax $2,703 $2,314 $2,081 Effect of nontaxable interest and dividends (254) (263) (278) Nondeductible interest expense 30 42 49 Income from bank owned insurance (198) (176) (139) Other items (6) (7) 7 ------ ------ ------ Total federal income taxes $2,275 $1,910 $1,720 ====== ====== ====== There were no taxes attributable to gains on sale of securities in 2002, 2001 and 2000. 13 NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE K - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES The Bank is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit, standby letters of credit and financial guarantees. The Bank's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit, and financial guarantees written, is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Bank uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for instruments recorded on the balance sheet. Following is a summary of such commitments at December 31: 2002 2001 ----- ----- Fixed rate $ 1,262 $ 2,075 Variable rate 44,730 52,578 Standby letters of credit 9,158 9,659 The interest rate on fixed rate commitments ranged from 4.875% to 17.90% at December 31, 2002. Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Bank to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Bank evaluates each customer's credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Bank upon extension of credit, is based on management's credit evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment and income-producing commercial properties. There are various contingent liabilities that are not reflected in the financial statements, including claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, after consultation with legal counsel, the ultimate disposition of these matters is not expected to have a material effect on financial condition or results of operations. The bank subsidiary of the Company is required to maintain average reserve balances with the Federal Reserve Bank or as cash in the vault. The amount of those reserve balances for the year ended December 31, 2002, was approximately $6,623. NOTE L - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS Certain directors, executive officers and companies in which they are affiliated were loan customers during 2002. A summary of activity on these borrower relationships with aggregate debt greater than $60 is as follows: Total loans at January 1, 2002 $13,137 New loans 7,672 Repayments (2,565) Other changes (16) ------- Total loans at December 31, 2002 $18,228 ======= Other changes include adjustment for loans applicable to one reporting period that are excludable from the other reporting period. In addition, certain directors, executive officers and companies in which they are affiliated were recipients of promissory notes issued by the parent company in the amount of $3,392. 14 NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE M - EMPLOYEE BENEFITS The Bank has a profit-sharing plan for the benefit of its employees and their beneficiaries. Contributions to the plan are determined by the Board of Directors. Contributions charged to expense were $149, $134 and $146 for 2002, 2001 and 2000. The Company maintains an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) covering substantially all of its employees. The Company makes discretionary contributions to the plan which are allocated to plan participants based on relative compensation. The total number of shares held by the Plan, all of which have been allocated to participant accounts were 159,595 and 154,914 at December 31, 2002 and 2001. In addition, the Bank made contributions to its ESOP Trust as follows: Years ended December 31 2002 2001 2000 ---- ---- ---- Number of shares issued 12,800 0 0 ====== ===== ===== Value of stock contributed $ 285 Cash contributed 158 $ 123 $ 293 ----- ----- ----- Total charged to expense $ 443 $ 123 $ 293 ===== ===== ===== Life insurance contracts with a cash surrender value of $12,673 have been purchased by the Company, the owner the of policies. The purpose of these contracts was to replace a current group life insurance program for executive officers and implement a supplemental retirement program. The cost of providing the benefits to the participants of the supplemental retirement program is expected to be offset by the earnings on the life insurance contracts. NOTE N - OTHER COMPREHENSIVE INCOME Other comprehensive income components and related taxes for the years ended December 31, are as follow: 2002 2001 2000 Net unrealized holding gains on ---- ---- ---- available-for-sale securities $ 600 $ 920 $ 1,565 Tax effect 204 313 532 ------- ------- ------- Other comprehensive income $ 396 $ 607 $ 1,033 ======= ======= ======= 15 NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE O - DISCLOSURES ABOUT FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value: Cash and Short-term Investments: For short-term instruments, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value. Securities: For securities, fair value equals quoted market price, if available. If a quoted market price is not available, fair value is estimated using quoted market prices for similar instruments. The fair value for FHLB stock is estimated at carrying value. Loans: The fair value of fixed rate loans is estimated by discounting future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities. The fair market value of commitments is not material at December 31, 2002 or 2001. The fair value for variable rate loans is estimated to be equal to carrying value. Deposit Liabilities: The fair value of demand deposits, savings accounts and certain money market deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of fixed-maturity certificates of deposit is estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities. Borrowings: For other borrowed funds and obligated mandatorily redeemable capital securities of subsidiary trust, rates currently available to the Bank for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities are used to estimate fair value. For securities sold under agreements to repurchase, carrying value is a reasonable estimate of fair value. Accrued Interest Receivable and Payable: For accrued interest receivable and payable, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value. In addition, other assets and liabilities that are not defined as financial instruments were not included in the disclosures below, such as premises and equipment and life insurance contracts. The estimated fair values of the Company's financial instruments at December 31, are as follows: 2002 2001 ---- ---- Carrying Fair Carrying Fair Value Value Value Value ----- ----- ----- ----- Financial assets: Cash and short-term investments $ 24,956 $ 24,956 $ 27,552 $ 27,552 Securities 84,253 85,097 70,756 71,204 FHLB stock 5,001 5,001 4,776 4,776 Loans 552,492 562,727 502,409 507,459 Accrued interest receivable 3,144 3,144 3,420 3,420 Financial liabilities: Deposits (497,404) (503,295) (455,861) (460,547) Securities sold under agreements to repurchase (33,052) (33,052) (29,274) (29,274) Other borrowed funds (95,435) (100,515) (90,856) (92,076) Obligated mandatorily redeemable capital securities of subsidiary trust (13,500) (13,746) (5,000) (5,250) Accrued interest payable (4,327) (4,327) (5,177) (5,177) Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the Company's entire holdings of a particular financial instrument. Because no market exists for a significant portion of the Company's financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgements regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments and other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgement and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates. 16 NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE P - REGULATORY MATTERS The Company and Bank are subject to regulatory capital requirements administered by federal banking agencies. Capital adequacy guidelines and prompt corrective action regulations involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities and certain off-balance-sheet items calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgements by regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors, and the regulators can lower classifications in certain cases. Failure to meet various capital requirements can initiate regulatory action that could have a direct material effect on the financial statements. The prompt corrective action regulations provide five classifications, including well capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized and critically undercapitalized, although these terms are not used to represent overall financial condition. If adequately capitalized, regulatory approval is required to accept brokered deposits. If undercapitalized, capital distributions are limited, as is asset growth and expansion, and plans for capital restoration are required.

Management is not aware of any event or circumstances subsequent to year-end that would change the Company's or Bank's capital structure. Dividends paid by the subsidiaries are the primary source of funds available to the Company for payment of dividends to shareholders and for other working capital needs. The payment of dividends by the subsidiaries to the Company is subject to restrictions by regulatory authorities. These restrictions generally limit dividends to the current and prior two years retained earnings. At December 31, 2002, approximately $8,360 of the subsidiaries' retained earnings were available for dividends under these guidelines. In addition to these restrictions, as a practical matter, dividend payments cannot reduce regulatory capital levels below minimum regulatory guidelines. These restrictions do not presently limit the Company from paying dividends at its historical level. 17 NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE Q - PARENT COMPANY ONLY CONDENSED FINANCIAL INFORMATION Below is condensed financial information of Ohio Valley Banc Corp.

The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. Accordingly, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded based on their estimated fair market values at the date of acquisition. Goodwill related to the acquisition at December 31, 2002 and 2001 was $1,267. Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted new accounting guidance changing accounting for goodwill. In accordance with this guidance, goodwill is not amortized, but is reviewed for impairment.

Years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001 INFORMATION AS TO STOCK PRICES AND DIVIDENDS: The market for the common stock of the Company is not highly active and trading has historically been limited. On February 9, 1996, the Company's common stock was established on NASDAQ securities market under the symbol "OVBC". Prior to this date a limited market was created in the first quarter of 1992 through the Ohio Company. The following table shows bid and ask quotations for the Company's common stock during 2002 and 2001. The range of market price is compiled from data provided by the broker based on limited trading. The quotations are inter-dealer prices, without retail markup, markdown, or commission, and may not represent actual transactions. 2002 Low Bid High Bid Low Ask High Ask - ---- ------- -------- ------- -------- First Quarter $23.65 $24.00 $23.75 $24.65 Second Quarter 23.60 24.25 23.72 24.50 Third Quarter 21.35 23.60 22.19 24.45 Fourth Quarter 19.75 21.10 20.50 21.40 2001 Low Bid High Bid Low Ask High Ask - ---- ------- -------- ------- -------- First Quarter $24.50 $25.25 $24.75 $25.75 Second Quarter 24.50 25.75 24.88 26.95 Third Quarter 24.50 25.05 24.95 26.00 Fourth Quarter 21.40 25.75 23.50 26.00 Dividends per share 2002 2001 - ------------------- ---- ---- First Quarter $.16 $.15 Second Quarter .17 .16 Third Quarter .17 .16 Fourth Quarter Normal dividend .17 .16 Special dividend .16 Shown above is a table which reflects the dividends paid per share on the Company's common stock. This disclosure is based on the weighted average number of shares for each year and does not indicate the amount paid on the actual shares outstanding at the end of each quarter. As of December 31, 2002 the number of holders of common stock was 1,877 an increase from 1,855 shareholders at December 31, 2001. On December 11, 2001, the Company's Board of Directors declared a special cash dividend of $.16 per share on the outstanding shares of Ohio Valley Banc Corp stock payable on December 31, 2001 to shareholders of record on December 21, 2001. The special dividend was approved in large part to help increase shareholder return and serve as a reinvestment back in the community. 23 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS The purpose of this discussion is to provide an analysis of the Company's financial condition and results of operations which is not otherwise apparent from the audited consolidated financial statements included in this report. The accompanying consolidated financial information has been prepared by management in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (US GAAP) and is consistent with that reported in the consolidated statements. Reference should be made to those statements and the selected financial data presented elsewhere in this report for an understanding of the following tables and related discussion. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS: SUMMARY Ohio Valley Banc Corp generated earnings of $5,675 for 2002 an increase of 15.9% from 2001. Net income was up 11.3% in 2001. Net income per share of $1.64 for 2002 represented continued growth from $1.41 in 2001 and $1.25 in 2000. Asset growth for 2002 was $61,357 or 9.7% which resulted in total assets at year-end of $696,356. The Company's return on assets (ROA) increased to .85% for 2002 compared to .83% in 2001 and .81% in 2000. Return on equity (ROE) was 11.85% for 2002 compared to 10.80% in 2001 and 10.29% in 2000. The average of the bid and ask price for the Company's stock was $20.61 at December 31, 2002 compared to $24.20 at year-end 2001 and $25.375 at year-end 2000. NET INTEREST INCOME The most significant portion of the Company's revenue, net interest income, results from properly managing the spread between interest income on earning assets and interest expense on the liabilities used to fund those assets. Net interest income is affected by changes in both the average volume and mix of the balance sheet and the level of interest rates for financial instruments. Changes in net interest income are measured by net interest margin and net interest spread. Net interest margin is expressed as net interest income divided by average interest-earning assets. Net interest spread is the difference between the average yield earned on interest-earning assets and the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities. Both of these are reported on a taxable equivalent basis. Net interest margin is greater than net interest spread due to the interest earned on interest-earning assets funded from noninterest bearing funding sources, primarily demand deposits and shareholders' equity. Following is a discussion of changes in interest-earning assets, interest-bearing liabilities and the associated impact on interest income and interest expense for the three years ending December 31, 2002. Tables I and II have been prepared to summarize the significant changes outlined in this analysis. Net interest income on a fully tax equivalent basis (FTE) increased $3,604 in 2002, an increase of 15.22% compared to the $23,680 earned in 2001. Net interest income (FTE) increased $2,193 in 2001, an increase of 10.21% compared to the $21,487 earned in 2000. Both increases were primarily attributable to an increase in interest-earning assets as well as a decrease in funding costs resulting in a higher net interest margin. For 2002, average earning assets grew by 13.7% as compared to growth of 8.4% in 2001. Driving the growth in earning assets was the growth in average loan balances. Average total loans expanded $64,150 or 13.5% from 2001 and represented 85.6% of earning assets. This compares to average loan growth of 9.7% for 2001 and loans representing 85.7% of earning assets. Management focuses on generating loan growth as this portion of earning assets provides the greatest return to the Company. Although loans comprise a larger percentage of earning assets, management is comfortable with the current level of loans based on collateral values, the balance of the allowance for loan losses and the Company's well-capitalized status. Average securities declined from 14.5% of earning assets for 2000 to 11.8% in 2002. Management maintains securities at a dollar level adequate enough to provide ample liquidity and cover pledging requirements. Average interest-bearing liabilities increased 14.1% between 2001 and 2002 and increased 8.7% between 2000 and 2001. While interest-bearing liabilities consists mostly of time deposits, this composition has continued to decline from 57.5 % of interest-bearing liabilities in 2000 to 51.8% in 2002. A large portion of deposits has shifted to other borrowed funds and NOW accounts which have grown to comprise 36.4% of interest-bearing liabilities in 2002 from 29.0% in 2000. Other borrowings and NOW accounts have been a cost-effective funding source for the Company's increase in earning assets in 2002 with the average cost of both being 3.74% compared to the time deposit average cost of 4.32%. NOW account balances were influenced by the growth in the Company's public fund deposits and Gold Club product. The net interest margin increased .06% to 4.34% in 2002 from 4.28% in 2001. This is compared to a .07% increase in the net interest margin in 2001. Contributing to the increase in net interest margin in 2002 was the increase in the net interest spread of .22%. The decrease in yield on earning assets of 1.01% was completely offset by the larger decrease in funding costs of 1.23%. Contributing to the decline in yield on earning assets was a decrease in the return on average loans of .97% from 2001. Total interest expense declined 14.1% due to the costs of time deposits decreasing 1.61%, the cost of NOW accounts decreasing 1.10% and the cost of borrowings decreasing .43%, impacted by the low rate environment in 2002. The cost of borrowings could have decreased even further, but management chose to lengthen the maturity of its funding liabilities during 2002's low rate environment. The impact of interest free funds on the net interest margin decreased from .61% in 2001 to .45% in 2002. The .16% decrease in the contribution of interest free funding sources combined with the .22% increase in the net interest spread yielded the .06% increase in the net interest margin. The 2001 increase in net interest margin of .07% was due to a .13% increase in net interest spread with lower asset yields of .27% being completely offset by lower funding costs of .40%. The increase in net interest spread was partially offset by a .06% decrease in interest free funding sources. NONINTEREST INCOME AND EXPENSE Total noninterest income increased $505 in 2002, a 9.8% gain over 2001. Total noninterest income increased 32.9% in 2001. Contributing to the growth in noninterest income was the increase in service charge income on deposit accounts which was up $115 in 2002 and $987 in 2001. Continued growth in transaction account balances led to the overall increase in 2002. The large increase in 2001 was anticipated from the implementation of new products and services in the fourth quarter of 2000 that generated additional service charge income in 2001 and did not have the same impact in 2002. Income earned on life insurance contracts from the Company's supplemental retirement program was up $88 in 2002 and $114 in 2001. Other operating income increased $309 over 2001 due to the gains on sale of mortgage loans as well as other fee income from debit and credit card transactions, commissions earned from loan insurance sales and loan service fees. Additionally, other operating income in 2001 increased $165 over 2000 driven by the Company's minority investments in insurance subsidiaries ProFinance Holdings Corporation and BSG Title Services Agency, LLC. Total noninterest expense increased $1,004 or 5.5% in 2002 and $1,193 or 7.0% in 2001. The most significant expense in this category is salary and employee benefits which increased $826 or 8.4% from 2001 to 2002. Contributing most to this increase were annual merit increases, rising benefit costs and increases to incentive compensation plans in relation to the successful growth in earnings experienced in 2002. The Company's full-time equivalent employee base remained steady with 252 employees at year-end 2002 as compared to 249 at year-end 2001. Salaries and employee benefits expense also increased $515 or 5.5% from 2000 to 2001 largely due to the increase in full-time equivalent employees as well as annual merit increases and rising benefit costs. Growth in additional offices and fixed assets has been relatively stable throughout 2002 with the addition of only one new finance company office in the third quarter. This has provided for a net decrease in occupancy and furniture and equipment expense, which were collectively down $39 or 1.6% in 2002 versus a decline of $194 in 2001. Corporation franchise tax decreased $192 from 2001 to 2002 largely due to a tax assessment charged to expense in 2001 that was related to the exclusion of intercompany indebtedness for taxable net worth. The assessment was challenged and the Company was successful in having the charge reversed in 2002. Other noninterest expense was up $421 in 2002 and $654 in 2001. The increase in 2002 was largely driven by a one time charge off of fraudulent checks totaling $484 in the second quarter. Management was successful in recovering over $100 by year-end 2002 and is continuing to seek recoveries of this charge off. Other noninterest expense increases in 2001 were related to new computer software depreciation, general increases in overhead expenses related to continuing growth and inflationary increases. The Company's efficiency ratio improved over last year as a result of the growth in revenue sources (net interest income and noninterest income) outpacing the growth in noninterest expense. The efficiency ratio for 2002 improved to 58.1% from 62.5% in 2001. FINANCIAL CONDITION: SECURITIES Management's goal in structuring the portfolio is to maintain a prudent level of liquidity while providing an acceptable rate of return without sacrificing asset quality. Maturing securities have historically provided sufficient liquidity such that management has not sold a debt security in several years. The balance of total securities increased 18.2% over 2001 with the ratio of securities to total assets increasing to 12.8% at December 31, 2002 compared to 11.9% at December 31, 2001. The Company's demand for securities was mostly in Government agency bonds which increased $13,782 largely due to pledging requirements that were necessary for public fund deposits. Government agency bonds comprise 75% of total securities and as a result, the portfolio's exposure to credit risk is minimal. The yield on reinvestment opportunities for securities has continued to decline in 2002. The weighted average FTE yield on debt securities at year-end 2002 was 4.69% as compared to 5.60% at year-end 2001. Table III provides a summary of the portfolio by category and remaining contractual maturity. Issues classified as equity securities have no stated maturity date and are not included in Table III. LOANS In 2002, total loans increased $50,901 or 10.0% to reach $559,561. The largest contributor was commercial loans which experienced growth of $32,354 or 18.7%. The commercial loan area originated over $96,000 in loans for 2002. Approximately 66% of these loans were originated in Gallia, Jackson, Pike and Franklin counties and 22% were originated from the West Virginia markets. The Company's commercial loan growth was impacted by the low interest rate environment experienced during 2002 as well as the success experienced in the Company's newer markets such as West Virginia contributing to a higher volume of business opportunities. Contributions to the loan portfolio were also made from the Company's consumer loan portfolio which expanded by $20,225 representing an 18.7% gain. The largest portion of consumer loans were originated through indirect lending, primarily from area automobile dealers, and are subject to the same underwriting as the Company's regular loans. As with commercial loans, auto indirect loan opportunities were impacted by the low interest rate environment evident in 2002 which allowed for more aggressive pricing on these loan types. At December 31, 2002, indirect loan balances represented nearly half of total consumer loans. In 2002, real estate loans declined $2,000 as compared to the loan growth of $16,488 experienced in 2001. The Company began selling loans to the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac) in the fourth quarter of 2002 which contributed to the overall decline in real estate mortgage loan originations. The Company emphasizes the selling of 15 to 30 year real estate loans at fixed rates which will assist management in minimizing its exposure to interest rate risk. While the Company has generally originated real estate loans for its own portfolio, the emphasis on selling long-term fixed rate real estate loans on the secondary market will continue in 2003. Tables V, VI, and VII have been provided to enhance the understanding of the loan portfolio and the allowance for potential loan losses. Management evaluates the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses quarterly based on several factors including, but not limited to, general economic conditions, loan portfolio composition, prior loan loss experience, and management's estimate of probable losses. Actual losses on loans are reflected as reductions in the reserve and are referred to as charge-offs. The amount of the provision for loan losses charged to operating expenses is the amount necessary, in management's opinion, to maintain the allowance for loan losses at an adequate level. The allowance required is primarily a function of the relative quality of the loans in the loan portfolio, the mix of loans in the portfolio and the rate of growth of outstanding loans. The ratio of net charge-offs to average total loans at December 31, 2002 was .86% up over .56% at December 31, 2001 due mostly to the $2,015 increase in net charge-offs within the consumer (particularly automobile indirect) and commercial loan portfolios. This increase in net charge-offs was a result of stronger emphasis being placed on improving the asset quality within the Company's loan portfolio. Nonperforming loans, which include nonaccrual loans and accruing loans past due 90 days or more, are returned to performing status when the loan is brought current and has performed in accordance with contractual terms. Nonperforming loans were approximately $8,060 at December 31, 2002 compared to $6,310 at the end of 2001. The increase in nonperforming loans was the result of a single commercial line which is in the process of collection and represented .70 percent of total loans which increased nonperforming loans as a percentage of total loans to 1.44% for the year ending December 31, 2002 as compared to 1.24% at year-end 2001. For 2002, provision expense was up by $1,967 compared to the provision expense for 2001. This increase in provision expense was largely associated with the increases in net charge-offs as a percent of average total loans as well as the growth in commercial loans which generally require a higher allocation of the allowance for loan losses based on the risks associated with this loan type. At December 31, 2002, the allowance for loan losses totaled $7,069, or 1.26% of total loans, up $818 from December 31, 2001 when the allowance was 1.23% of total loans. Management increased the allowance as a percent of total loans in 2002 due to an increase in nonperforming loans and a general decline in economic conditions. Management feels that the allowance is adequate to absorb probable and incurred losses in the portfolio based on collateral values as well as a high relative volume of real estate mortgages. While management is comfortable that the allowance for loan losses is adequate to absorb future losses inherent in the loan portfolio, management is prepared to increase the allowance should economic conditions dictate. DEPOSITS Interest-earning assets are funded primarily by core deposits. The accompanying table IV shows the composition of total deposits as of December 31, 2002. Total deposits grew $41,543 or 9.1% to reach $497,404 by year-end 2002. Leading the growth in deposits were time deposits which increased $22,625 or 8.5% over 2001. Generating $18,088 of this growth was certificates of deposit gathered through national markets as well as brokered certificates of deposit. These deposits sources were utilized to supplement deposit growth due to their competitive cost and longer maturities compared to traditional retail sources. With historical low interest rates, management lengthened maturities to protect against rising interest rates. Interest-bearing demand deposits increased by $13,633 or 14.9% over 2001. Driving this growth were increases in public fund NOW accounts which were up $9,913 over 2001 and the Company's Gold Club product, offering customers a NOW account with other banking benefits, which increased $1,699 over 2001. Furthermore, non-interest bearing demand deposits increased $2,262 or 4.0% during 2002. With the previous expansion into new markets, management expects continued growth in deposits in 2003. FUNDS BORROWED During 2002, the Company utilized borrowed funds as one of its funding sources as these balances grew to $95,435 at December 31, 2002 compared to $90,856 at December 31, 2001. Other funds borrowed consist primarily of Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) advances, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, and promissory notes. FHLB advances are subject to collateral agreements and are secured by qualifying first mortgage loans and FHLB stock. Management utilized FHLB advances to primarily fund long-term assets. Similar to the certificates of deposit strategy, management utilized FHLB advances to extend the average term of its funding sources and help protect against rising interest rates. At December 31, 2002, the balance of FHLB advances totaled $84,590 compared to $81,564 at December 31, 2001. Management will continue to evaluate borrowings from the FHLB as an alternative funding source in 2003. Promissory notes are primarily associated with funding loans at Loan Central and most were issued with terms of one year or less. CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company maintains a capital level that exceeds regulatory requirements as a margin of safety for its depositors and shareholders. Shareholders' equity totaled $50,375 at December 31, 2002, compared to $46,300 at December 31, 2001, which represents growth of 8.8%. All of the capital ratios exceeded the regulatory minimum guidelines as identified in Note P "Regulatory Matters". Cash dividends paid of $2,315 for 2002 represents a 15.3% decrease over the cash dividends paid during 2001. The decrease in cash dividends paid is due to the special "freedom" dividend paid in the fourth quarter of 2001 at $.16 per share which increased the number of dividend distributions to five compared to four dividend distributions in 2002. Management deemed the special dividend prudent to increase shareholder return and make an additional contribution back to shareholders in light of the tragic events that impacted the economy in 2001. Excluding the special dividend of 2001, cash dividends paid for 2002 would have increased $133 or 6.1% over 2001 largely due to an increase in the dividend rate paid per share. The Company maintains a dividend reinvestment and stock purchase plan. The plan allows shareholders to purchase additional shares of company stock. A benefit of the plan is to permit the shareholders to reinvest cash dividends as well as make supplemental purchases without the usual payment of brokerage commissions. During 2002, shareholders invested $1,100 through the dividend reinvestment and stock purchase plan. These proceeds resulted in the issuance of 28,285 new shares and the acquisition of 19,692 existing shares through open market purchases for a total of 47,977 shares. At December 31, 2002, approximately 76% of the shareholders were enrolled in the dividend reinvestment plan. Members' reinvestment of dividends and supplemental purchases in 2002 represented 48% of year-to-date dividends paid. In addition, as part of the Company's stock repurchase program in 2002, management purchased 27,125 shares in the open market. The current stock repurchase program limits the number of shares to be repurchased to 175,000 shares. At December 31, 2002, the Company could repurchase an additional 18,000 shares under the existing share repurchase program which is scheduled to expire on February 10, 2003. LIQUIDITY AND INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY The Company's goal for interest rate sensitivity management is to maintain a balance between steady net interest income growth and the risks associated with interest rate fluctuations. Interest rate risk ("IRR") is the exposure of the Company's financial condition to adverse movements in interest rates. Accepting this risk can be an important source of profitability, but excessive levels of IRR can threaten the Company's earnings and capital. It is management's policy not to position the balance sheet so as to expose the Company to levels of interest rate risk which could significantly impair earnings performance or endanger capital. The Company's asset and liability committee monitors the rate sensitivity of the balance sheet weekly through parameters established by the Board of Directors. The committee uses interest rate sensitivity modeling analysis prepared quarterly to monitor the relationship between the maturity and repricing of its interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Interest rate sensitivity gap is defined as the difference between the amount of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities maturing or repricing within a specified time period. A gap position is considered positive when the amount of interest sensitive assets exceeds the amount of interest sensitive liabilities, and is considered negative when the amount of interest sensitive liabilities exceeds the amount of interest sensitive assets. Generally, during a period of rising interest rates, a negative gap would adversely affect net interest income, while a positive gap would result in an increase in net interest income. Conversely, during a period of falling interest rates, a negative gap would result in an increase in net interest income, while a positive gap would negatively affect net interest income. This analysis assumes that interest rate changes for interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities are of the same magnitude and velocity, whereas actual interest rate changes generally differ in magnitude and velocity. Based on the interest rate sensitivity model, the Company was liability sensitive in the short term and asset sensitive for periods over five years. The Company's exposure to interest rate risk is primarily managed through the selection of the type and repricing characteristics of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Management can influence the Company's gap position by offering fixed or variable rate products, by changing the terms of new loans, investments and time deposits, or by selling existing assets or repaying certain liabilities. The Company's ability to manage its gap position can be challenged by customer preferences which may not meet the Company's goals. The FHLB assists in funding interest-earning assets by providing advances with similar repricing characteristics as many of the loans offered by the Company. Table VIII provides information about the Company's interest-bearing financial instruments. The table presents information strictly by expected maturity date without regard for repricing dates for variable rate products. Noninterest-bearing checking deposits assume an annual decay rate of 13% and savings and interest-bearing checking accounts assume an annual decay rate of 14% based on the Company's historical experience. A fundamental difference between the table and the interest rate sensitivity model previously discussed is that the table presents financial intruments based on the date of expected cash flows while the model only focuses on repricing characteristics of financial instruments. Liquidity management should focus on matching the cash inflows and outflows within the Company's natural market for loans and deposits. This goal is accomplished by maintaining sufficient asset liquidity along with stable core deposits. The primary sources of liquidity are interest-bearing balances with banks, federal funds sold and the maturity and repayment of investments and loans as well as cash flows provided from operations. The Company has classified $75,264 in securities as available for sale at December 31, 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 December 31, 2002, the Bank could borrow an additional $44,000 from the Federal Home Loan Bank. The Bank also has the ability to purchase federal funds from several of its correspondent banks. See the consolidated statement of cash flows for further cash flow information. Management does not rely on any single source of liquidity and monitors the level of liquidity based on many factors affecting the Company's financial condition. INFLATION Consolidated financial data included herein has been prepared in accordance with US GAAP. Presently, US GAAP requires the Company to measure financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars with the exception of securities available for sale, which are carried at fair value. Changes in the relative value of money due to inflation or deflation are generally not considered. In management's opinion, changes in interest rates affect the financial institution to a far greater degree than changes in the inflation rate. While interest rates are greatly influenced by changes in the inflation rate, they do not change at the same rate or in the same magnitude as the inflation rate. Rather, interest rate volatility is based on changes in the expected rate of inflation, as well as monetary and fiscal policies. A financial institution's ability to be relatively unaffected by changes in interest rates is a good indicator of its capability to perform in today's volatile economic environment. The Company seeks to insulate itself from interest rate volatility by ensuring that rate sensitive assets and rate sensitive liabilities respond to changes in interest rates in a similar time frame and to a similar degree.

In 2002, management adopted a new method of identifying impaired loans and accordingly, has adjusted the 2001 impaired loan balances to reflect this method. Management did not adjust impaired loan balances prior to 2001.During 2002, the Company recognized $160 of interest income on impaired loans. Individual loans not included above that management feels have loss potential total approximately $500. The Company has no assets which are considered to be troubled debt restructings. Management formally considers placing a loan on nonaccrual status when collection of principal or interest has become doubtful.Furthermore, a loan should not be returned to the accrual status unless either all delinquent principal or interest has been brought current or the loan becomes well secured and is in the process of collection.
