Item 8.01. Other Events

On December 13, 2007, Cardinal Bankshares Corporation furnished a Form 8-K announcing the Company’s semi-annual dividend. The text of that 8-K and the press release issued on December 13, 2007 contained an inadvertent typographical error to the effect that the amount of the semi-annual dividend was $.30 per share.
