ITEM 1-BUSINESS
CNB Corporation (the Company) was incorporated in June, 1985 as a business
corporation under the Michigan Business Corporation Act, pursuant to the
authorization and direction of the Board of Directors of the Citizens National
Bank of Cheboygan (the Bank).
The Company is a bank holding company registered with the Board of Governors of
the Federal Reserve System (the Federal Reserve Board) under the Bank Holding
Company Act with the Bank as its wholly-owned subsidiary. The Bank was acquired
by the Company effective December 31, 1985. The Company has corporate power to
engage in such activities as permitted to business corporations under the
Michigan Business Corporation Act, subject to the limitations of the Bank
Holding Company Act and regulations of the Federal Reserve Board. In general,
the Bank Holding Company Act and regulations restrict the Company with respect
to its own activities and activities of any subsidiaries to the business of
banking or such other activities which are closely related to the business of
banking.
During 2001, the Company, through its subsidiary, the Bank, formed the CNB
Mortgage Corporation. Residential mortgages were transferred to the new
subsidiary in October, 2001. The change had no impact on our customers who
continue to have their loans serviced locally by our Bank.
2
The Bank offers a full range of banking services to individuals, partnerships,
corporations, and other entities. Banking services include checking, NOW
accounts, savings, time deposit accounts, money market deposit accounts, safe
deposit facilities and money transfers.
The Bank's lending function provides a full range of loan products. These
include real estate mortgages, secured and unsecured commercial and consumer
loans, lines of credit, home equity loans and construction financing. The Bank
also participates in specialty loan programs through the Michigan State Housing
Development Authority, Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, Mortgage Guaranty
Insurance Corporation, Farm Service Agency and Small Business Administration.
Through correspondent relationships, the Bank also makes available credit cards
and student loans.
The Bank's loan portfolio consists of over 49% residential real estate mortgages
on both primary and secondary homes. The residential borrower base is very
diverse and loan to value ratios are generally 80% or less. Commercial loans
accounts for approximately 45% of total loans. Commercial real estate lending, a
part of commercial loans, has grown to represent 37% of total loans. These loans
are generally for owner occupied properties with loan to value ratios of 80% or
less. Personal guarantees are required on most commercial loans. Unsecured
lending is very limited.
The Bank makes first and second mortgage loans to its customers for the purchase
of residential and commercial properties. Historically, the Bank has sold its
long term fixed rate residential mortgage loans qualifying for the secondary
market to the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (FHLMC). The mortgage loan
portfolio serviced by the Bank for the FHLMC totaled approximately $73 million
at December 31, 2006.
Banking services are delivered through seven full-service banking offices and
two drive-in branches plus eleven automated teller machines in Cheboygan, Emmet
and Presque Isle Counties, Michigan. The business base of the counties is
primarily tourism with light manufacturing. The Bank maintains correspondent
bank relationships with several larger banks, which involve check clearing
operations, transfer of funds, loan participations, and the purchase and sale of
federal funds and other similar services.
We opened our new branch facility just south of Alanson in Littlefield Township
in January 2007. This is our first expansion location since the Indian River
branch opened in 1981. The new Alanson branch includes a full lobby service,
easily accessible drive-thru lanes and a drive up ATM.
Under various agency relationships, the Bank provides trust and discount
brokerage services and mutual fund, annuity and life insurance products to its
customers.
In its primary market, which includes Cheboygan County and parts of Emmet,
Mackinac and Presque Isle Counties, the Bank is one of three principal banking
institutions. One is a member of a multi-bank holding company with substantially
more assets than the Company, while the other is an independent community bank.
There are also two credit unions, one savings and loan association and a
brokerage firm.
As of December 31, 2006, the Bank employed 75 full-time and 12 part-time
employees. This compares to 74 full-time and 14 part-time employees as of
December 31, 2005. Neither the Company nor CNB Mortgage Corporation has any
full-time employees. Their operation and business are carried out by officers
and employees of the Bank who are not compensated by the Company.
Disclosure relating to the Distribution of Assets, Liabilities and
Stockholders' Equity; Interest rates and Interest differential is presented on
pages 43-44 of Registrant's 2006 Annual Report which is incorporated herein by

The amount of the unallocated allowance decreased significantly from $896,000 in
2004 to $130,000 in 2005. This was primarily due to a revision of the allowance
for loan losses methodology during 2005. During 2005 management enhanced their
assessment of inherent risks in the loan portfolio which resulted in increased
allowance allocations in the commercial real estate and commercial loan
categories during 2005. Management feels the new methodology better allocates
the allowance into the appropriate loan categories.
The review of the loan portfolio revealed no undue concentrations of credit,
however, the portfolio continues to be concentrated in residential real estate
mortgages and highly dependent upon the tourist industry for the source of
repayment. Because the reliance on tourism is both primary, (i.e. loans to
motels, hotels, and restaurants, etc.) and secondary (i.e. loans to employees of
tourist related businesses), it is difficult to assess a specific dollar amount
of inherent loss potential. Likewise, the residential real estate market has
been stable or increasing, so inherent loss potential in this concentration is
also difficult to reasonably assess. Therefore, the tourism industry and
residential real estate mortgage concentrations are considered in establishing
the allowance for loan loss.

Various ratios required by this section and other ratios commonly used in
analyzing bank holding company financial statements are included in page 1 of
Registrant's 2006 Annual Report, which is incorporated herein by reference.
SUPERVISION AND REGULATION
As a bank holding company within the meaning of the Bank Holding Company Act,
the Company is required to file quarterly and annual reports of its operations
and such additional information as the Federal Reserve Board may require and is
subject, along with its subsidiary, to examination by the Federal Reserve Board.
The Federal Reserve Board is the primary regulator of the Company.
The Bank Holding Company Act requires every bank holding company to obtain prior
approval of the Federal Reserve Board before it may merge with or consolidate
into another bank holding company, acquire substantially all the assets of any
bank, or acquire ownership or control of any voting shares of any bank if after
such acquisition it would own or control, directly or indirectly, more than 5%
of the voting shares of such bank holding company or bank. The Bank Holding
Company Act also prohibits a bank holding company, with certain exceptions, from
acquiring direct or indirect ownership or control of more than 5% of the voting
shares of any company which is not a bank and from engaging in any business
other than that of banking, managing and controlling banks or furnishing
services to banks and their subsidiaries. However, holding companies may engage
in, and may own shares of companies engaged in, certain businesses found by the
Federal Reserve Board to be so closely related to banking or the management or
control of banks as to be a proper incident thereto.
Under current regulations of the Federal Reserve Board, a holding company and
its nonbank subsidiaries are permitted, among other activities, to engage,
subject to certain specified limitations, in such banking related business as
consumer finance, equipment leasing, computer service bureau and software
operations, data processing, discount securities brokerage, mortgage banking and
brokerage, sale and leaseback, and other forms of real estate banking. The Bank
Holding Company Act does not place territorial restrictions on the activities of
nonbank subsidiaries of bank holding companies.
8
In addition, Federal legislation prohibits acquisition of "control" of a bank or
bank holding company without prior notice to certain federal bank regulators.
"Control" in certain cases may include the acquisition of as little as 10% of
the outstanding shares of capital stock.
The Company's cash revenues are derived primarily from dividends paid by the
Bank. Without prior approval, a national bank may not declare a dividend if the
total amount of all dividends declared by the bank in any calendar year exceeds
the total bank's retained net income for the current year and retained net
income for the preceding two years. Under federal law, the Bank cannot pay a
dividend if, after paying the dividend, the Bank will be "undercapitalized."
The Bank is a national banking association and as such is subject to the
regulations of, and supervision and regular examination by, the Office of the
Comptroller of the Currency ("OCC"). Deposit accounts of the bank are insured by
the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC"). Requirements and
restrictions under the laws of the State of Michigan and Title 12 of the United
States Code include the requirements that banks maintain reserves against
deposits, restrictions on the nature and amount of loans which may be made by a
bank, and the interest that may be charged thereon, restrictions on the payment
of interest on certain deposits, and restrictions relating to investments and
other activities of a bank. The Federal Reserve Board has established guidelines
for risk based capital by bank holding companies. These guidelines establish a
risk adjusted ratio relating capital to risk-weighted assets and off-balance
sheet exposures. These capital guidelines primarily define the components of
capital, categorize assets into different risk classes, and include certain
off-balance sheet items in the calculation of capital requirements.
An analysis of the Bank's regulatory capital requirements at December 31, 2006
is presented on page 30 of the Registrant's 2006 Annual Report in Note 14
Regulatory Capital to the Company's consolidated financial statements, which is
incorporated herein by reference.
ITEM 1A-RISK FACTORS
In addition to the other information in this Annual Report on Form 10-K,
shareholders or prospective investors should carefully consider the following
risk factors:
WE FACE INTENSE COMPETITION IN ALL PHASES OF OUR BUSINESS FROM OTHER BANKS AND
FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS.
We face substantial competition in all phases of our operations from a variety
of different competitors. Our future growth and success will depend on our
ability to compete effectively in this highly competitive environment. We
compete for deposits, loans and other financial services with numerous
Michigan-based and out-of-state banks, thrifts, credit unions and other
financial institutions as well as other entities which provide financial
services. Some of these competitors are not subject to the same regulatory
restrictions, have advantages of scale due to their size, or have cost
advantages due to their tax status.
INTEREST RATES AND OTHER CONDITIONS IMPACT OUR RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
Our profitability is in part a function of the spread between the interest rates
earned on loans and investments and the interest rates paid on deposits. Like
most banking institutions, our net interest spread and margin will be affected
by general economic conditions and other factors, including fiscal and monetary
policies of the federal government, that influences market interest rates and
our ability to respond to changes in such rates. At any given time, our assets
and liabilities (deposits) will be such that they are affected differently by a
given change in interest rates. Although we believe our current level of
interest rate sensitivity is reasonable and effectively managed, significant
fluctuations in interest rates, changes in the U.S. Treasury yield curve and
other similar factors may have an adverse effect our business, financial
condition and results of operations
9
OUR LOCAL ECONOMY MAY AFFECT OUR FUTURE GROWTH POSSIBILITIES.
Our current market area is principally located in Northern Michigan. Our future
growth opportunities depend on the growth and stability of our regional economy
and our ability to expand our market area and market share. A downturn in our
local economy may limit funds available for deposit and may negatively affect
our borrowers' ability to repay their loans on a timely basis, both of which
could have an impact on our profitability.
WE MUST EFFECTIVELY MANAGE OUR CREDIT RISK.
These are risks inherent in making any loan, including risks inherent in dealing
with individual borrowers, risk of nonpayment, risks resulting from
uncertainties as to the future value of collateral and risks resulting from
changes in economic and industry conditions. We attempt to minimize our credit
risk through prudent loan application approval procedures. We have a formal
lending policy that is approved by the Board of Directors of the Bank. However
prudent these procedures may be they do not eliminate credit risk.
OUR CREDIT LOSSES COULD INCREASE AND OUR ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES MAY NOT BE
ADEQUATE TO COVER ACTUAL LOAN LOSSES.
The risk of nonpayment of loans is inherent in all lending activities and
nonpayment, if it occurs, may have a material adverse affect on our earnings and
overall financial condition as well as the value of our common stock. We make
various assumptions and judgments about the collectibility of our loan portfolio
and provide an allowance for potential losses based on a number of factors. If
our assumptions were wrong, our allowance for loan losses may not be sufficient
to cover our losses, thereby having an adverse affect on our operating results,
and may cause us to increase the allowance in the future. The actual amount of
future provisions for loan losses cannot now be determined and may exceed the
amounts of past provisions. Additionally, federal banking regulators, as an
integral part of their supervisory function, periodically review our allowance
for credit losses. These regulatory agencies may require us to increase our
provision for credit losses or to recognize further loan charge-offs based upon
their judgments, which may be different from ours. Any increase in the allowance
for credit losses could have a negative effect on our net income, financial
condition and results of operations.
THE COMPANY CONTINUES TO BE SUBJECT TO INCREASED REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS IMPOSED
BY THE SARBANES-OXLEY ACT OF 2002, INCLUDING A REQUIREMENT THAT MANAGEMENT
ATTEST TO THE COMPANY'S INTERNAL CONTROLS OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING, WHICH
ATTESTATION WILL BE REVIEWED BY THE COMPANY'S EXTERNAL AUDITORS. THESE
REQUIREMENTS REPRESENT INCREASED COSTS TO THE COMPANY OVER PAST PERIODS.
The Company is required to comply with various corporate governance and
financial reporting requirements under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 as well as
new rules and regulations adopted by the Commission and the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board. In particular, unless extended, the Company will be
required to include management and auditor reports on the effectiveness of
internal controls over financial reporting as part of its annual report on Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007, pursuant to Section 404 of the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The Company expects to continue to spend significant amounts
of time and money on compliance with these rules.
WE CONTINUALLY ENCOUNTER TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGE, AND WE MAY HAVE FEWER RESOURCES
THAN OUR COMPETITORS TO CONTINUE TO INVEST IN TECHNOLOGICAL IMPROVEMENTS.
The banking industry is undergoing rapid technological changes with frequent
introductions of new technology-driven products and services. In additional to
better serving customers, the effective use of technology increases efficiency
and enables financial institutions to reduce costs. Our future success will
depend, in part, on our ability to address the needs of our customers by using
technology to provide products and services that will satisfy customer demands
for convenience as well as to create additional efficiencies in our operations.
Many of our competitors have substantially greater resources
10
to invest in technological improvements. There can be no assurance that we will
be able to effectively implement new technology-driven products and services or
be successful in marketing such products and services to our customers.
WE OPERATE IN A HIGHLY REGULATED ENVIRONMENT, AND CHANGES IN LAWS AND
REGULATIONS TO WHICH WE ARE SUBJECT MAY ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS.
We operate in a highly regulated environment and are subject to supervision and
regulation by a number of governmental regulatory agencies, including the Board
of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation, Securities and Exchange Commission, and the Comptroller of the
Currency. Regulations adopted by these agencies govern a comprehensive range of
matters relating to our permissible activities for us to engage in, maintenance
of adequate capital levels, matters of internal control over financial reporting
and other aspects of our operations. The regulators possess broad authority to
prevent or remedy unsafe or unsound practices or violations of law or
regulation. The laws and regulations applicable to the Company could change at
any time and we cannot predict the effects of these changes on our business and
profitability. Increased regulation could increase our cost of compliance and
adversely affect profitability. For example, new legislation or regulation may
limit the manner in which we may conduct our business, including our ability to
offer new products, attract deposits, make loans and achieve satisfactory
spreads.
THERE IS A LIMITED TRADING MARKET FOR OUR COMMON SHARES, AND THUS YOUR ABILITY
TO SELL OR PURCHASE OUR COMMON SHARES MAY BE LIMITED.
Your ability to sell our common shares or purchase additional common shares
largely depends upon the existence or an active market for our common shares.
Although our common shares are quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, they are not
listed on any securities exchange and the volume of trading has been
historically limited. As a result, you may not be able to sell or purchase our
common shares at the volume, time and price that you desire. In addition, a fair
valuation of the purchases or sales price of our common shares also depends upon
an active trading market, and thus the price you receive for a thinly traded
stock, such as our common shares, may not reflect its true value.
WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO PAY DIVIDENDS IN THE FUTURE IN ACCORDANCE WITH PAST
PRACTICE.
We pay a quarterly dividend to shareholders. However, we are dependent primarily
upon the Bank for our earnings and funds to pay dividends on our common stock.
The payment of dividends also is subject to legal and regulatory restrictions.
Any payment of dividends in the future will depend, in large part, on the Bank's
earnings, capital requirements, financial condition and other factors considered
by our Board of Directors.
ITEM 1B-UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS

under the symbol "CNBZ". All trades are handled on a direct basis between buyer
and seller. The Bank acts as the Company's transfer agent. The principal market
for the Company's stock consists of existing shareholders, family members of
existing shareholders and individuals in the service area.
The information detailing the range of high and low selling prices of known
transactions for the Company's common stock and cash dividends declared for each
full quarterly period within the two most recent fiscal years can be found under
the caption "Financial Highlights" on page 1 of the Company's Annual Report to
Shareholders for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006, which is hereby
incorporated by reference.
The information which indicates the amount of common stock that is subject to
outstanding options or warrants to purchase, or securities convertible into,
common equity of the registrant can be found in Note 8 on page 24 of the
Company's Annual Report to Shareholders for the fiscal year ended December 31,

restricts the payment of cash dividends based on the following criteria: (1) the
Company's net income from operations over the past year must be sufficient to
fully fund the dividend and (2) the prospective rate of earnings retention must
be consistent with the Company's capital needs, asset quality and overall
financial condition.
