Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements March 31, 2005 and 2004 PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Tennessee Valley Financial Holdings, Inc. (the "Company"), a bank holding company, and its wholly-owned subsidiary, TnBank (the "Bank"). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. TnBank was incorporated on July 6, 1994 for the purpose of organizing a state-chartered commercial bank and commenced operations on May 30, 1995. TnBank provides a variety of banking services to individuals and businesses through its two offices in Oak Ridge and one office in Knoxville, Tennessee. Its primary deposit products are demand deposits and certificates of deposit, and its primary lending products are commercial business, real estate mortgage, and consumer installment loans. This report contains forward-looking statements under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that involve risks and uncertainties. When used in this discussion, the words "believes", "anticipates", "contemplates", "expects", and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. Although we believe that the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements are reasonable, any of the assumptions could be inaccurate, and therefore, we cannot assure you that the forward-looking statements set out in this report will prove to be accurate. Factors that could cause actual results to differ from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: o Economic conditions (both generally and more specifically in the markets in which we operate); o Competition for our customers from other providers of financial services; o Government legislation and regulation (which changes from time to time and over which we have no control); o Changes in interest rates;and o Material unforeseen changes in liquidity, results of operations, or financial condition of our customers. These risks are difficult to predict and many of them are beyond our control. NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The unaudited quarterly financial statements of Tennessee Valley Financial Holdings, Inc. presented herein should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2004. Financial information and the results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2005, and cash flows for the three month periods ended March 31, 2005 and 2004 are unaudited, and in the opinion of management reflect all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of such information. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the entire year. 9 NOTE 2 - ACCOUNTING POLICY CHANGES Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities In April 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 149, Amendment of Statement 133 on "Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities". This statement amends Statement 133 for decisions made as part of the Derivatives Implementation Group process and other board projects and in conjunction with other implementation issues. Management does not expect this statement to have any significant impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations. Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity In May 2003, the financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 150, "Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity". This statement established standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. Management does not expect this statement to have a significant impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations. Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities In December 2003, the FASB issued revised Interpretation No. 46 (FIN46), "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities." This Interpretation clarifies the application of ARB No. 51, "Consolidated Financial Statements," for certain entities in which equity investors do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated support from other parties. This Interpretation requires variable interest entities to be consolidated by the primary beneficiary, which represents the enterprise that will absorb the majority of the variable interest entities' expected losses if they occur, receive a majority of the variable interest entities' residual returns if they occur, or both. This Interpretation is effective for the Company in the first fiscal year or interim period ending after December 15, 2004. The Company does not presently have any related entities considered to be variable interest entities and this Standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial statements. Accounting for Certain Loans or Debt Securities Acquired in a Transfer In December 2003, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued Statement of Position 03-3, "Accounting for Certain Loans and Debt Securities Acquired in a Transfer" ("SOP 03-3"). SOP 03-3 addresses accounting for differences between contractual cash flows expected to be collected and an investor's initial investment in loans or debt securities acquired in a transfer if those differences are attributable, at least in part, to credit quality. SOP 03-3 also prohibits "carrying over" or creation of valuation allowances in the initial accounting of all loans acquired in a transfer that are within the scope of SOP 03-3. The prohibition of the valuation allowance carryover applies to the purchase of an individual loan, a pool of loans, a group of loans, and loans acquired in a purchase business combination. SOP 03-3 is effective for loans acquired in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2004. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of SOP 03-3 will have a material impact on its financial condition or results of operations. 10 Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment In March 2004, the Emerging Issues Task Force reached a consensus on Issue 03-1, "Meaning of Other Than Temporary Impairment" ("Issue 03-1"). The Task Force reached a consensus on an other-than-temporary impairment model for debt and equity securities accounted for under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities" and cost method investments, and required certain additional financial statement disclosures. The implementation of the "Other-than-Temporary Impairment" component of this consensus has been postponed. The adoption of the guidance contained in this EITF consensus did not have a material effect on the Company's financial statements. Share-Based Payment In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), "Share-Based Payment," which is a revision of SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." SFAS No. 123(R) supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and amends SFAS Statement No. 95, "Statement of Cash Flows." Generally, the approach to accounting for share-based payments in SFAS No. 123(R) is similar to the approach described in SFAS No. 123. However, SFAS No. 123(R) requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the financial statements based on their fair values, which means that pro forma disclosure is no longer an alternative to financial statement recognition. SFAS No. 123(R) is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2006. The Company is currently evaluating the provisions of SFAS No. 123(R) to determine its impact on the Company's financial statements in future periods. Exchanges of Non-Monetary Assets In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153, "Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets - - an Amendment to APB opinion No. 29." This Statement addresses the measurement of exchanges of nonmonetary assets. The Statement is effective for nonmonetary exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. Management does not believe this Statement will have a material effect on the Company's financial statements. NOTE 3 - COMMITMENTS As of March 31, 2005, the Company had outstanding commitments to advance construction funds and to originate loans in the amount of $33 million and commitments to advance existing home equity and other credit lines in the amount of $24.9 million. In addition, the Company has also conveyed $955,000 in standby letters of credit. NOTE 4 - TRUST PREFERRED SECURITIES In March 2005, TVFHI formed Tennessee Valley Statutory Trust I (TV Trust). TV Trust is a statutory business trust formed under the laws of the state of Delaware and is wholly-owned by the Company. In March 2005, the TV Trust issued preferred securities with an aggregate liquidation amount of $2.0 million ($1,000 per preferred security) to third-party investors. The Company, in turn, issued junior debentures aggregating $2.1 million to TV Trust. The junior subordinated debentures are the sole assets of TV Trust. The subordinated debt and preferred securities pay interest and dividends quarterly. The interest rate is fixed for five years at 6.75% (4.75% Swap Rate plus 2.00% spread). After five years, the rate floats at three-month LIBOR plus 2.00%. The debentures mature in 2036, at which time the preferred securities must be redeemed. The subordinated debentures and preferred securities can be redeemed, in whole or in part, at the discretion of the Company beginning in June 2010. The Company has provided a full, irrevocable, and unconditional guarantee on a subordinated basis of the obligations of the Trust under the preferred securities in the event of the occurrence of an event of default, as defined in such guarantee. The trust agreements contain provisions that enable the Company to defer making interest payments for a period of up to five years. 11 NOTE 5 - OTHER BORROWINGS The following table summarizes the Company's other borrowings as of March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively. March 31, 2005 December 31, 2004 ---------------------- ----------------------- Federal Home Loan Bank Advances $ 8,500 $ 9,700 Fed Funds Purchased - 375 Capital Lease Obligations 234 240 Other Borrowings 50 ---------------------- ----------------------- Total Other Borrowings $ 8,784 $ 10,315 ====================== ======================= NOTE 6 - STOCK OPTIONS The Company has two stock option plans that are described more fully below. The Company accounts for those plans under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations. No stock-based employee compensation cost is reflected in consolidated income, as all options granted under those plans had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions under SFAS Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, to stock-based employee compensation.

The plan terminates in ten years, or sooner at the board's discretion. The board of directors also has discretion concerning which eligible persons shall be granted options, the term of each granted option, and the number of shares for which each option shall be granted. Options must be exercised within ten years from the date they are granted and must include a price per share of at least 85% to 110% of the fair value of the stock on the date the options were granted. The board has reserved 19,457 shares of common stock for issuance during the term of the plan. The board of directors has awarded a total of 15,600 options under this plan. In 2002, the board of directors approved an additional stock option plan to provide key employees with additional incentive to contribute to our best interests. The plan terminates in ten years. The board of directors also has discretion concerning which eligible persons shall be granted options, the term of each granted option, and the number of shares for which each option shall be granted. Options must be exercised within ten years from the date they are granted and must include a price per share of at least 100% of the fair value of our common stock on the date the option is granted. The board of directors has reserved the lesser of 20% of the diluted shares outstanding (107,014 shares at December 31, 2004) or 213,612 shares of common stock for issuance during the term of the plan. On March 15, 2005, the Board of TVFHI granted 44,000 of the outstanding options of this plan to certain employees. The exercisable date for these options is effective beginning December 31, 2005. The fair value of each option granted during the three-months ended March 31, 2005 is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions. 2005 ----------- Dividend Yield 1.35% Expected Life 7 years Expected Volatility 14% Risk-Free Interest Rate 5.2% 13 A summary of the status of the Company's stock option plans is presented below: Three Months Ended Three Months Ended March 31, March 31, 2005 2004 ----------------------------------- ------------------------------- Shares Weighted Average Shares Weighted Average Exercise Price Exercise Price ---------------- ------------------ ------------- ----------------- Outstanding at Beginning of Period 15,500 $ 16.22 14,500 $ 16.00 Granted 44,000 26.00 0 Exercised 0 0 Forfeited 0 0 ---------------- ------------- Outstanding at End of Period 59,500 $ 23.45 14,500 $ 16.00 ================ ================== ============= ================= Options Exercisable at Period-End 15,500 $ 16.22 14,500 $ 16.00 Weighted Average Fair Value of Options Granted During the Period 26.00 N/A Information pertaining to options outstanding at March 31, 2005 is as follows: Weighted Average Weighted Weighted Number Remaining Average Number Average Range of Exercise Prices Outstanding Contractual Life Exercise Price Exercisable Exercise Price - ------------------------------------ ---------------- ------------------ ---------------- ----------------- --------------- $16.00 - $26.00 59,500 6.9 years $23.45 15,500 16.22 14 ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTH PERIODS ENDING MARCH 31, 2005 AND 2004 GENERAL We are a Tennessee bank holding company which acquired the Bank through a share exchange in May 2002. We are a registered bank holding company under the Federal Reserve Act. Our only activity is owning the Bank which commenced operations on May 30, 1995. For the three months ending March 31, 2005 we earned net income of $224,000 or $0.42 per share as compared to $251,000 or $0.47 per share for the corresponding period in 2004. The decrease in net income for the first quarter of 2005 was primarily due to increased cost of funds and increased non-interest expense. Overall rising interest rates impacted net interest expense in the first quarter of 2005. Additionally, increasing salary expense and occupancy expense associated with growth strategies further affected expenses. Increases in interest income from loan activity partially offset these increased expenditures. The table below represents certain key financial ratios for the first quarter of 2005 and 2004, respectively. For the three months ending March 31, 2005 2004 ------------------- ------------------- Return on Average Assets 0.68% 0.92% Return on Average Equity 9.60% 11.74% Earnings per share - basic $0.42 $ 0.47 NET INTEREST INCOME Net interest income was $1.3 million for the first quarter of 2005, an increase of approximately 13% or $153,000 over the same period in 2004. The increase in net interest income was due primarily to an increase in the volume of earnings assets and rising interest rate environment. The net interest margin declined to 4/25% as of March 31, 2005 compared to 4.54% for March 31, 2004. While slight improvement is noted in the yield on earning assets, a more pronounced increase in overall rates on interest bearing liabilities attributed to this decline. Average loans increased approximately $15.3 million to $104.5 million at March 31, 2005, as compared to $89.2 million at March 31, 2004. Average loans were approximately 84% of total earning assets at March 31, 2005 and 86% at March 31, 2004. The yield on total earning assets increased 3 basis points for the first quarter of 2005 as compared to the first quarter of 2004. The recent continued increase in overall interest rates has enhanced yields on the loan portfolio. However, the yield on investments has been negatively impacted by rising rates. Yields on federal funds sold, the rates on which can change overnight, increased 154 basis points from March 31, 2003 to March 31. 2004. Total interest expense was approximately $653,000 for the first quarter of 2005, an almost 44% increase as compared to the same period in 2004. The increase is primarily related to an increase in the average volume of interest bearing liabilities from $91.8million for the first quarter of 2004 to $11.4 million for the same period in 2005. The average rate on interest-bearing deposits was 2.20% for the first quarter of 2005, 43 basis points higher than the average rate on deposits during the first quarter of 2004. This increase is a direct result of the current rising interest rate environment. The average cost of borrowed funds was 3.77% for the first quarter of 2005 compared to 3.62% the same period 2004. The overall rate on interest-bearing liabilities was 2.35% for the first quarter of 2005 and 1.98% for the same period in 2004. 15 Three Months Ended (In thousands) Three Months Ended (In thousands) March 31, 2005 March 31, 2004 Average Balance Interest Yield/Rate Average Balance Interest Yield/Rate Loans(1) (2) $ 104,500 $ 1,789 6.85% $ 89,224 $ 1,460 6.55% Investment securities(3) (5) 14,736 142 3.85% 14,165 168 4.74% Federal funds sold 4,738 29 2.45% 136 0 0.91% ---------------- -------------- ---------- ------------------ --------------- ----------- Total earning assets 123,974 1,960 6.32% 103,525 1,628 6.29% -------------- --------------- Other assets 7,595 5,813 ---------------- ------------------ Total Assets 131,569 109,338 ================ ================== Interest-bearing deposits 101,267 558 2.20% 81,668 362 1.77% Securities sold under agreements to repurchase and other borrowings 10,091 95 3.77% 10,155 92 3.62% ---------------- -------------- ---------- ------------------ --------------- ----------- Total Interest Bearing Liabilities 111,358 653 2.35% 91,823 454 1.98% Non-Interest Bearing Deposits 10,167 8,202 Other liabilities 717 763 ---------------- ------------------ Total Liabilities 122,232 100,788 ---------------- ------------------ Total Stockholders' Equity 9,337 8,550 ---------------- Total Liabilities and Stockholders' Equity 131,569 109,338 ================ ================== Net interest income $ 1,307 $ 1,174 ============== =============== Net interest spread 3.97% 4.31% Net interest margin(4) 4.22% 4.54% The Company's profitability is dependent to a large extent upon net interest income, which is the difference between its interest income on interest-earning assets and interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities. Within the past 12 months, interest rates have begun to increase in steady increments applied by the Federal Reserve Bank. The Company will be affected by changes in levels of interest rates and other economic factors beyond its control, particularly to the extent that such factors affect the overall volume of its lending and deposit activities. A sudden increase in interest rates could have an adverse impact on the Company's net income through a narrower interest margin and reduced lending volume. While the overall lending volume has not been particularly affected by rising rates, the net interest margin, as previously noted, has been impacted. The Company's Asset/Liability Committee ("ALCO" committee) follows the Asset/Liability Management Policy approved by the board of directors. The ALCO committee meets at least quarterly or more often as considered necessary to discuss asset/liability management issues and make recommendations to the board of directors regarding prudent asset/liability management policies and procedures. Some of the issues the ALCO committee considers include: local and national economic forecasts; interest rate forecasts and spreads; mismatches between the maturities of the Company's assets (loans, and investments) and liabilities (deposits); anticipated loan demands; and the liquidity position of the Company. 16 The matching of assets and liabilities may be analyzed by examining the extent to which such assets and liabilities are "interest rate sensitive" and by monitoring an institution's interest rate sensitivity "gap." An asset or liability is said to be interest rate sensitive within a specific time period if it will mature or reprice within that time period. The interest rate sensitivity gap is defined as the difference between the amount of interest-earning assets maturing or repricing within a specific time period and the amount of interest-bearing liabilities maturing or repricing within that time period. A gap is considered positive when the amount of interest rate sensitive assets exceeds the amount of interest rate sensitive liabilities. A gap is considered negative when the amount of interest rate sensitive liabilities exceeds the amount of interest rate sensitive assets. During a period of rising interest rates, a negative gap would tend to adversely affect net interest income while a positive gap would tend to result in an increase in net interest income. During a period of falling interest rates, a negative gap would tend to result in an increase in net interest income while a positive gap would tend to adversely affect net interest income. As of March 31, 2005, the Company has a negative gap for the next twelve month period. PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES Provision for loan losses was $42,000 for the first quarter of 2005, compared to $21,000 for the first quarter of 2004. The balance of the allowance for loan losses at March 31, 2005 was $1.24 million (1.17% of gross loans) compared to $1.29 million (1.23% of gross loans) at December 31, 2004. Net charge-offs for the first quarter of 2005 were $72,000 compared to $19,000 for the first quarter of 2004. As a percentage of average loans, the annualized rate of net charge-offs was 0.28% for the first quarter of 2005 compared to a 0.08% ratio for the same period 2004. Analysis of the Allowance for Loan Losses For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2005 2004 ----------------- ------------------ Average Loans Outstanding 104,500 89,224 ================= ================== Allowance at beginning of period 1,271 1,283 Charge-offs: Commercial, financial and agricultural Real Estate - construction Real Estate - mortgage 57 Installment - consumer Other 19 24 ----------------- ------------------ Total charge-offs 76 24 ----------------- ------------------ Recoveries: Commercial, financial and agricultural Real Estate - construction Real Estate - mortgage 3 3 Installment - consumer 1 2 Other ----------------- ------------------ Total recoveries 4 5 Net charge-offs 72 19 ----------------- ------------------ Provision for loan losses 42 21 ----------------- ------------------ Balance at end of period $ 1,241 $ 1,285 ================= ================== Ratio of net charge-offs during the period to average loans outstanding during the period 0.07% 0.02% 17 As of March 31, 2005, management's review of the allowance for loan losses concluded that the balance was adequate to provide for potential losses based upon an evaluation of risk in the loan portfolio. Despite our credit standards, internal controls, and continuous loan review process, the inherent risk in the lending process results in periodic charge-offs. Through the provision for loan losses, we maintain a reserve for loan losses that management believes is adequate to absorb losses within the loan portfolio. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination procedures, periodically review our reserve for loan losses, and based on their judgment may require the us to recognize additions to the reserve for loan losses. Management completes a formal analysis of the reserve for loan losses adequacy on a monthly basis. A portion of this analysis is maintained as an unallocated reserve to recognize the imprecision in estimating the allowance for loan losses. Management strives on an ongoing basis to identify potential problems in its loan portfolio, resulting in more specific analysis of reserve amounts for specific loans and less amounts for unallocated reserve amounts. NON-INTEREST INCOME Total non-interest income was approximately $186,000 for the first quarter of 2005 compared to $173,000 for the same period in 2004. This slight increase is attributed to an increase in fees on sale of mortgage loans countered by a decrease in service charges on deposit account. NON-INTEREST EXPENSE Non-interest expense totaled approximately $1.1 million for the first quarter of 2005 as compared to $924,000 during the first three quarter of 2004. Non-interest expense (annualized) as a percent of total average assets was 3.37% for the first quarter of 2005 compared to 3.38% for the first quarter of 2004. The increase in non-interest expense during the first quarter of 2005 as compared to the same period in 2004 can be primarily attributed to increases in salaries and employee benefits, net occupancy expense, and other expenses associated with growth strategies. INCOME TAXES The Company recognizes income taxes under the asset and liability method established in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are established for the temporary differences between the accounting basis and the tax basis of our assets and liabilities at enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when the amounts related to such temporary differences are realized or settled. Our deferred tax assets are reviewed quarterly and adjustments to such assets are recognized as deferred income tax expense or benefit based on management's judgment relating to the realizability of such assets. We recognized income tax expense of $123,000 and $131,000 for the first quarter of 2005 and 2004, respectively. Income tax expense was $151,000 for the third quarter of 2004 as compared to $170,000 for the third quarter of 2003. The effective income tax rate for the Company was 35.4% for the first quarter of 2005 and 34.3% for the first quarter of 2004. BALANCE SHEET ANALYSIS - COMPARISON OF SEPTEMBER 30, 2004 TO DECEMBER 31, 2003 Assets totaled $139.6 million at March 31, 2005 as compared to $125.3 million at December 31, 2004, an increase of 11.3%. The primary category of asset growth was $10.1 million in Federal Funds sold with an additional $2.5 million increase in loans. The increase in Federal Funds sold was the direct result of obtaining an additional $13.5 million in deposits in the first quarter of 2005. 18 INVESTMENT SECURITIES Investment securities were approximately $16.2 million, or 12% of total assets, at March 31, 2005, an increase of $864,000 from December 31, 2004. We purchased $3.5 million in investment securities during the first quarter of 2005, while maturities, calls, sales and principal pay-downs provided cash of $2.5 million. The investment portfolio is comprised of U.S. Government and federal agency obligations and mortgage-backed securities issued by the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (FHLMC), the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB), the Federal Farm Credit Bank (FFCB), the Government National Mortgage Association (GNMA) and the Federal National Mortgage Association (FNMA). We also invest in tax-free, bank-qualified state, county and municipal bonds, and investment grade corporate debt securities. Mortgage-backed issues comprised 27.1% of the portfolio at March 31, 2005 and 27.3% at December 31, 2004. At March 31, 2005 and December 31, 20043, 100% of our portfolio was classified as available for sale and is reflected on the balance sheet at fair value with net unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported as a separate component of stockholders' equity, net of applicable deferred income taxes. The unrealized loss on investment securities available for sale was $59,000 at March 31, 2005, compared to an unrealized gain of $75,000 as of December 31, 2004, primarily a result of changes in the bond market. The fair value of securities fluctuates with the movement of interest rates. The recent rising interest rate environment has directly influenced these changes within the bond portfolio. Generally, during periods of decreasing interest rates, the fair values increase whereas the opposite may hold true when interest rates rise. LOANS During the first quarter of 2005, loans increased $2.5 million to $103.7 million at March 31, 2005. Loans by Type March 31, 2005 December 31, 2004 ----------------------- ---------------------------- Commercial, financial and agricultural $ 30,541 $ 29,197 Real estate - construction 24,618 23,552 Real estate - mortgage 38,157 38,320 Installment loans to individuals 11,730 11,566 ----------------------- ---------------------------- Loans, gross $ 105,046 $ 102,635 Less: Allowance for loan losses (1,241) (1,271) Unearned loan fees (123) (137) ----------------------- ---------------------------- $ 103,682 $ 101,227 ======================= ============================ Included in the above may be loans which have been classified as impaired, pursuant to the adoption of SFAS No. 114. 19 Non-Performing Assets March 31, 2005 December 31, 2004 ---------------------- ----------------------- Non-accrual loans(1) $ 101 $ 546 Loans past due greater than 90 days and still accruing interest - - Restructured loans(2) 276 257 Other real estate owned 310 335 ---------------------- ----------------------- Total Non-Performing Assets $ 685 $ 1,138 ====================== ======================= (1) Included in non-accrual loans are $101,000 and $564,000 of loans considered impaired as of March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively. (2) Included in restructured loans are $189,000 as of March 31, 2005 also considered impaired. A loan is generally placed on non-accrual status and ceases accruing interest when loan payment performance is deemed unsatisfactory. All loans past due 90 days, however, are placed on non-accrual status, unless the loan is both well collateralized and in the process of collection. Cash payments received while a loan is classified as non-accrual are recorded as a reduction of principal as long as doubt exists as to collection. Other real estate owned totaled $310,000 at March 31, 2005, representing a decrease of $25,000 from December 31, 2004. We have four relationships that are considered restructured as defined by accounting standards. The classification as restructured was brought on by changes in the terms of the loans precipitated by deterioration in the borrowers' financial condition. DEPOSITS Deposits grew approximately $13.5 million to $118.3 million at March 31, 2005 from $104.8 million at December 31, 2004. This increase was a result of the attraction of certificates of deposit through a local marketing campaign. Core deposits, which include regular savings, money market, NOW and demand deposits, were $56.0 million, or 47.4% of total deposits, at March 31, 2005. Core deposits were 57.8% of total deposits at December 31, 2004. Time deposits totaled $62.2 million at March 31, 2005, an increase of approximately $17.7 million from $44.5 million at December 31, 2004. The significant increase in time deposits, as previously mentioned, was due to an en flux of time deposits in order to obtain additional funding sources for growth strategies. The decrease in core deposits was partly attributed to a shift of funds from non interest bearing accounts to time deposit accounts in the first quarter. 20 Deposit Balances By Type March 31, 2005 December 31, 2004 -------------------- ------------------ Demand Deposits: Non-interest bearing demand accounts $ 9,742 $ 11,958 NOW and money market accounts 43,053 44,966 Savings accounts 3,243 3,374 -------------------- ------------------ Total demand deposits 56,038 60,298 -------------------- ------------------ Term Deposits: Less than $100,000 39,998 29,879 $100,000 or more 22,215 14,622 -------------------- ------------------ Total Term Deposits 62,213 44,501 -------------------- ------------------ Total Deposits $ 118,251 $ 104,799 ==================== ================== CAPITAL During the first quarter of 2005, stockholders' equity increased $140,000 to $9.4 million. Stockholders' equity of $9.4 million was due primarily to net income of $224,000, offset by a decline in accumulated other comprehensive income of $84,000. 21 Regulatory Capital TnBank (Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of Tennessee Valley Financial Holdings, Inc.)

At March 31, 2005, we held $16.2 million in available-for-sale securities. Deposits increased approximately $13.5 million during the first quarter of 2005. We had $3.0 million of available federal funds lines and approximately $7.6 million in available borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank as of March 31, 2005. We can also enter into repurchase agreement transactions should the need for additional liquidity arise. At March 31, 2005, the Company had $365,000 in repurchase agreement balances outstanding. At March 31, 2005, the Company had capital of $9.4 million, or 6.7% of total assets as compared to $9.3 million, or 7.2% at December 31, 2004. Tennessee chartered banks that are insured by the FDIC are subject to minimum capital maintenance requirements. Regulatory guidelines define the minimum amount of qualifying capital an institution must maintain as a percentage of risk-weighted assets and average total assets. Item 3. Controls and Procedures. (a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and its principal accounting officer have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-14(c)) as of March 31, 2005.
