PART I

Item 1. Business

Community Trust Bancorp, Inc. (the "Corporation") is a bank holding company registered with the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System pursuant to Section 5(a) of the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended. The Corporation was incorporated August 12, 1980, under the laws of the Commonwealth of Kentucky for the purpose of becoming a bank holding company. At December 31, 2004, the Corporation owned all the capital stock of one commercial bank and one trust company, serving small and mid-sized communities in eastern, northeast, central, and south central Kentucky and southern West Virginia. The commercial bank is Community Trust Bank, Inc., Pikeville, Kentucky (the "Bank"). The trust company, Community Trust and Investment Company, Lexington, Kentucky (the "Trust Company"), has offices in Lexington, Pikeville, Ashland, Middlesboro, and Versailles, Kentucky. At December 31, 2004, the Corporation had total consolidated assets of $2.7 billion and total consolidated deposits of $2.1 billion, making it the largest bank holding company headquartered in the Commonwealth of Kentucky.

Effective January 1, 2003, the Bank and the Trust Company converted their charters to state charters from national associations. The Bank remained a member of the Federal Reserve System following conversion. Following its conversion, the Trust Company changed its name from Trust Company of Kentucky, National Association to Community Trust and Investment Company in order to identify more closely the Trust Company with the Bank. While the conversions resulted in some reduction in expenses, they did not result in any changes in the management or operations of the Bank or the Trust Company.

Through its subsidiaries, the Corporation engages in a wide range of commercial and personal banking and trust activities, which include accepting time and demand deposits; making secured and unsecured loans to corporations, individuals and others; providing cash management services to corporate and individual customers; issuing letters of credit; renting safe deposit boxes; and providing funds transfer services. The lending activities of the Bank include making commercial, construction, mortgage, and personal loans. Also available are lease-financing, lines of credit, revolving lines of credit, term loans, and other specialized loans including asset-based financing. The corporate subsidiaries act as trustees of personal trusts, as executors of estates, as trustees for employee benefit trusts, as registrars, transfer agents, and paying agents for bond and stock issues, as depositories for securities, and as providers of full service brokerage operations.

COMPETITION

The Corporation’s subsidiaries face substantial competition for deposit, credit, and trust relationships, as well as other sources of funding in the communities they serve. Competing providers include state banks, national banks, thrifts, trust companies, insurance companies, mortgage banking operations, credit unions, finance companies, brokerage companies, and other financial and non-financial companies which may offer products functionally equivalent to those offered by the Corporation’s subsidiaries. Many of these providers offer services within and outside the market areas served by the Corporation’s subsidiaries. The Corporation’s subsidiaries strive to offer competitively priced products along with quality customer service to build customer relationships in the communities they serve.

Since July 1989, banking legislation in Kentucky places no limits on the number of banks or bank holding companies that a bank holding company may acquire. Interstate acquisitions are allowed where reciprocity exists between the laws of Kentucky and the home state of the bank or bank holding company to be acquired. Bank holding companies continue to be limited to control of less than 15% of deposits held by banks in the states where they do business (exclusive of inter-bank and foreign deposits).

The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 (the "Gramm Act") has expanded the permissible activities of a bank holding company. The Gramm Act allows qualifying bank holding companies to elect to be treated as financial holding companies. A financial holding company may engage in activities that are financial in nature or are incidental or complementary to financial activities. The Corporation has not yet elected to be treated as a financial holding company. The Gramm Act also eliminated restrictions imposed by the Glass-Steagall Financial Services Law, adopted in the 1930s, which prevented banking, insurance, and securities firms from fully entering each other’s business. This legislation has resulted in further consolidation in the financial services industry. In addition, removal of these restrictions has increased the number of entities providing banking services and thereby created additional competition.

No material portion of the business of the Corporation is seasonal. The business of the Corporation is not dependent upon any one customer or a few customers, and the loss of any one or a few customers would not have a material adverse effect on the Corporation. See note 16 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding concentrations of credit.

The Corporation engages in no operations in foreign countries.

EMPLOYEES

As of December 31, 2004, the Corporation and its subsidiaries had 954 full-time equivalent employees. Employees are provided with a variety of employee benefits. A retirement plan, an employee stock ownership plan, group life insurance, major medical insurance, a cafeteria plan, and annual management and employee incentive compensation plans are available to eligible personnel.

SUPERVISION AND REGULATION

The Corporation, as a registered bank holding company, is restricted to those activities permissible under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended, and is subject to actions of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System thereunder. It is required to file an annual report with the Federal Reserve Board and is subject to an annual examination by the Board.

The Bank is a state-chartered bank subject to state and federal banking laws and regulations and to periodic examination by the Kentucky Office of Financial Institutions and to the restrictions, including dividend restrictions, thereunder. The Bank is also a member of the Federal Reserve System and is subject to certain restrictions imposed by and to examination and supervision under the Federal Reserve Act. The Trust Company is also regulated by the Kentucky Office of Financial Institutions and the Federal Reserve.

Deposits of the Bank are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, which subjects banks to regulation and examination under the provisions of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act.

The operations of the Corporation and its subsidiaries also are affected by other banking legislation and policies and practices of various regulatory authorities. Such legislation and policies include statutory maximum rates on some loans, reserve requirements, domestic monetary and fiscal policy, and limitations on the kinds of services that may be offered.

The Corporation’s annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K, and all amendments to those reports are available free of charge on the Corporation’s website at www.ctbi.com as soon as reasonably practicable after such materials are electronically filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Corporation’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics is also available on the Corporation’s website. Copies of the Corporation’s annual report will be made available free of charge upon written request.

The calculations of the weighted average interest rates for each maturity category are based upon yield weighted by the respective costs of the securities. The weighted average rates on state and political subdivisions are computed on a taxable equivalent basis using a 35% tax rate. For purposes of the above presentation, maturities of mortgage-backed pass through certificates and collateralized mortgage obligations are based on estimated maturities.

Excluding those holdings of the investment portfolio in U.S. Treasury securities and other agencies of the U.S. Government, there were no securities of any one issuer that exceeded 10% of the shareholders’ equity of the Corporation at December 31, 2004.

The book values of securities available-for-sale and securities held-to-maturity as of December 31, 2004 and 2003 are presented in note 3 to the consolidated financial statements.

In 2004, gross interest income that would have been recorded on nonaccrual loans had the loans been current in accordance with their original terms amounted to $1.0 million. Interest income actually received and included in net income for the period was $0.1 million, leaving $0.9 million of interest income not recognized during the period.

Discussion of the Nonaccrual Policy

The accrual of interest income on loans is discontinued when the collection of interest and principal in full is not expected. When interest accruals are discontinued, interest income accrued in the current period is reversed and interest income accrued in prior periods is charged to the allowance for loan losses. Any loans past due 90 days or more must be well secured and in the process of collection to continue accruing interest.

Potential Problem Loans

Interest accrual is discontinued when management believes, after considering economic and business conditions, collateral value, and collection efforts, that the borrower’s financial condition is such that collection of interest is doubtful. Any loan greater than 90 days past due must be well secured and in the process of collection to continue accruing interest. Management, therefore, believes to the best of their knowledge that no additional potential problem loans exist that would result in disclosure pursuant to Item III.C.2.

Foreign Outstandings

None

Loan Concentrations

The Corporation had no concentration of loans exceeding 10% of total loans at December 31, 2004. See note 16 to the consolidated financial statements for further information.

There were approximately 3,500 holders of record of the Corporation's outstanding common shares at February 28, 2005.

Dividends

The annual dividend was increased from $0.75 per share to $0.87 per share during 2004. A 10% stock dividend distributed on December 15, 2004 resulted in the restatement of the 2004 cash dividend of $0.93 per share to $0.87 per share, the 2003 cash dividend of $0.82 per share to $0.75 per share, and the 2002 cash dividend of $0.71 per share to $0.65 per share. The Corporation did not adjust its fourth quarter 2004 cash dividend with the stock dividend of December 15, 2004 electing to retain the payment at $0.24 per share. The Corporation has adopted a conservative policy of cash dividends, by maintaining an average annual cash dividend ratio of less than 45%, with periodic stock dividends. Dividends are typically paid on a quarterly basis. Future dividends are subject to the discretion of the Corporation’s Board of Directors, cash needs, general business conditions, dividends from the subsidiaries, and applicable governmental regulations and policies. For information concerning restrictions on dividends from the subsidiary bank to the Corporation, see note 18 to the consolidated financial statements included herein for the year ended December 31, 2004.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Overview

Community Trust Bancorp, Inc. reported record earnings of $31.0 million for 2004 compared to $28.9 million for 2003 and $27.6 million for 2002. Basic earnings per share for 2004 were $2.09 compared to $1.95 per share for 2003 and $1.83 per share for 2002. Basic earnings per share for the year 2004 reflects the Corporation’s sixth consecutive year of increased earnings per share. All per share data has been restated to reflect the 10% stock dividend distributed on December 15, 2004.

The increase in earnings is reflected in the Corporation's return on average assets and return on average equity for 2004. Return on average assets for 2004 was 1.22% compared to 1.16% and 1.12% in 2003 and 2002, respectively. Return on average equity for 2004 was 13.48% compared to 13.43% and 13.63% in 2003 and 2002, respectively.

The Corporation's assets increased to $2.7 billion at December 31, 2004 from the $2.5 billion at December 31, 2003. The Corporation experienced an increase of $244.2 million in earning assets during the year 2004. The investment portfolio grew $77.9 million and the loan portfolio grew $166.3 million. The growth in the investment portfolio was primarily a result of a $200 million transaction completed in August 2004, which increased our investment portfolio with funds borrowed from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati, Ohio. Loan growth has occurred in all three major loan categories, commercial, residential real estate, and consumer loans. Total deposits and repurchase agreements of $2.2 billion at December 31, 2004 experienced growth of $67.4 million from prior year-end.

As was anticipated, the investment transaction completed in August 2004 has been accretive to earnings but has resulted in a lower net interest margin and return on average assets.


Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the appropriate application of certain accounting policies, many of which require us to make estimates and assumptions about future events and their impact on amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements and related notes. Since future events and their impact cannot be determined with certainty, the actual results will inevitably differ from our estimates. Such differences could be material to the consolidated financial statements.

We believe the application of accounting policies and the estimates required therein are reasonable. These accounting policies and estimates are constantly reevaluated, and adjustments are made when facts and circumstances dictate a change. Historically, we have found our application of accounting policies to be appropriate, and actual results have not differed materially from those determined using necessary estimates.

Our accounting policies are more fully described in note 1 to the consolidated financial statements. We have identified the following critical accounting policies:

Loans - - Loans are reported at the carrying value of unpaid principal reduced by unearned interest and an allowance for loan losses. Income is recorded on the level yield basis. Interest accrual is discontinued when management believes, after considering economic and business conditions, collateral value, and collection efforts, that the borrower’s financial condition is such that collection of interest is doubtful. Any loan greater than 90 days past due must be well secured and in the process of collection to continue accruing interest. Cash payments received on nonaccrual loans generally are applied against principal, and interest income is only recorded once principal recovery is reasonably assured. Loans are not reclassified as accruing until principal and interest payments are brought current and future payments appear reasonably certain.

Allowance for Loan Losses - The adequacy of the allowance is reviewed quarterly by management using a methodology that includes several key factors. The Corporation utilizes an internal risk grading system for commercial credits, and those larger commercial credits identified through this grading system as having weaknesses are individually reviewed for the customer's ability and potential to repay their loans. The borrower’s cash flow, adequacy of collateral held for the loan, and other options available to the Corporation including legal avenues are all evaluated. Based upon this individual credit evaluation, a specific allocation to the allowance may be made for the loan.

For other commercial loans that are not individually evaluated, an allowance allocation is determined by applying an eight-quarter moving average historical loss rate for this group of loans. Consumer installment and residential mortgage loans are not individually risk graded. Allowance allocations are provided for these pools of loans based upon an eight-quarter moving average historical loss rate for each of these categories of loans.

An unallocated portion of the allowance is also determined in recognition of the inherent inability to precisely determine the loss potential in any particular loan or pool of loans. The factors considered by management in determining this amount of inherent risk include delinquency trends, current economic conditions and trends, strength of the supervision and administration of the loan portfolio, level of nonperforming loans, trend in loan losses, recovery rates associated with previously charged-off loans, concentrations within commercial credits, problem loan identification strengths and weaknesses, collateral evaluation strengths and weaknesses, and the level of financial statement exceptions. These factors are reviewed quarterly and weighted as deemed appropriate by management. The total of these weighted factors is then applied against the total loan portfolio and the allowance is adjusted accordingly.

Investments - - Management determines the classification of securities at purchase. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, the Corporation classifies securities into held-to-maturity or available-for-sale categories. Held-to-maturity securities are those which the Corporation has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity and are reported at amortized cost. Available-for-sale securities are those the Corporation may decide to sell if needed for liquidity, asset/liability management, or other reasons. Available-for-sale securities are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses included as a separate component of shareholders’ equity, net of tax. If declines in fair value are not temporary, the carrying value of the securities is written down to fair value as a realized loss.

Gains or losses on disposition of securities are computed by specific identification for all securities except for shares in mutual funds, which are computed by average cost. Interest and dividend income, adjusted by amortization of purchase premium or discount, is included in earnings.

Mortgage loans originated and intended for sale in the secondary market are carried at the lower of cost or estimated market value in the aggregate. Net unrealized losses, if any, are recognized in a valuation allowance by charges to income.

Goodwill - - The Corporation evaluates total goodwill for impairment, based upon SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets and SFAS No. 147, Acquisitions of Certain Financial Institutions, using fair value techniques including multiples of price/equity. Goodwill is evaluated for impairment on an annual basis.

Effects of Accounting Changes

Ø  
Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities - In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Interpretation No. 46 ("FIN 46"), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin 51. The primary objectives of this interpretation are to provide guidance on the identification of entities for which control is achieved through means other than through voting rights (variable interest entities) and how to determine when and which business enterprise (the primary beneficiary) should consolidate the variable interest entity. This new model for consolidation applies to an entity in which either (a) the equity investors (if any) do not have a controlling financial interest, or (b) the equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance that entity’s activities without receiving additional subordinated financial support from other parties. In addition, FIN 46 requires that the primary beneficiary, as well as all other enterprises with a significant variable interest in a variable interest entity, make additional disclosures. Certain disclosure requirements of FIN 46 were effective for financial statements issued after January 31, 2003. In December 2003, FASB issued FIN 46 (revised December 2003), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities ("FIN 46-R") to address certain FIN 46 implementation issues. The provisions of FIN 46 were applicable for variable interests in entities obtained after January 31, 2003. The adoption of the provisions applicable to special purpose entities ("SPEs") and all other variable interests obtained after January 31, 2003 did not have a material impact on the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements. Effective March 31, 2004, the Corporation adopted the provisions of FIN 46-R applicable to non-SPEs created prior to February 1, 2003. Adoption of FIN 46-R had no impact on the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements.

Ø  
Accounting for Certain Loans and Debt Securities Acquired in a Transfer - In December 2003, the Accounting Standards Executive Committee of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued Statement of Position ("SOP") 03-3, Accounting for Certain Loans and Debt Securities Acquired in a Transfer. SOP 03-3 addresses the accounting for certain acquired loans that show evidence of credit deterioration since their origination (i.e. impaired loans) and for which a loss is deemed probable of occurring. SOP 03-3 prohibits the carryover of an allowance for loan loss on certain acquired loans within its scope. SOP 03-3 is effective for loans that are acquired in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2004. The Corporation will evaluate the applicability of this SOP for all prospective loans acquired in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2004. The Corporation does not anticipate this Statement to have material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

Ø  
Application of Accounting Principles to Loan Commitments - In March 2004, the Securities and Exchange Commission staff released Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 105, Application of Accounting Principles to Loan Commitments. This SAB disallows the inclusion of expected future cash flows related to the servicing of a loan in the determination of the fair value of a loan commitment. Further, no other internally developed intangible asset should be recorded as part of the loan commitment derivative. Recognition of intangible assets would only be appropriate in a third-party transaction, such as a purchase of a loan commitment or in a business combination. The SAB is effective for all loan commitments entered into after March 31, 2004, but does not require retroactive adoption for loan commitments entered into on or before March 31, 2004. Adoption of this SAB did not have a material effect on the Corporation's consolidated financial statements.

Ø  
The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments - In March 2004, a consensus was reached on the Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") Issue 03-1, The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments. The EITF reached a consensus on an other-than-temporary impairment model for debt and equity securities accounted for under SFAS No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, and cost method investments. The basic model developed to evaluate whether an investment within the scope of Issue 03-1 is other-than-temporarily impaired involves a three-step process including determining whether an investment is impaired (fair value less than cost), evaluating whether the impairment is other-than-temporary (including the Corporation's intent and ability to hold the impaired securities until the cost is recovered) and, if other-than-temporary, requiring recognition of an impairment loss equal to the difference between the investment's cost and its fair value. The first step in the model used to determine other-than-temporary impairments shall be applied prospectively to all current and future investments in interim or annual reporting periods beginning after June 15, 2004. The second and third steps in the model have been delayed pending issuance of proposed FASB Staff Position EITF 03-1-a., Implementation Guidance for the Application of Paragraph 16 of EITF Issue No. 03-1, The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments. At December 31, 2004, the Corporation had approximately $4.0 million in gross unrealized losses, none of which is considered to be other than temporary impairment. The Corporation is evaluating the impact of this Issue.

Ø  
Stock-Based Employee Compensation - The Corporation currently maintains two incentive stock option plans covering key employees; however, only one plan is active. The 1998 Stock Option Plan ("1998 Plan") was approved by the Board of Directors and the Shareholders in 1998. The 1998 Plan had 1,046,831 shares authorized, 432,770 of which were available at December 31, 2004 for future grants. All options granted have a maximum term of ten years. Options granted as management retention options vest after five years, all other options vest ratably over four years. The Corporation has elected to follow Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees and related interpretations in accounting for its employee stock options. Under APB Opinion No. 25, because the exercise price of all employee stock options equals the market price of the underlying stock on the date of the grant, no compensation expense is recognized.

Had compensation cost for the Corporation’s stock options granted in 2004, 2003, and 2002 been determined under the fair value approach described in SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, the Corporation’s net income and earnings per share would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts indicated below:

       The fair value of the options presented above was estimated at the date of the grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions for 2004, 2003, and 2002, respectively: risk-free interest rates of 3.70%, 2.69%, and 3.68%, dividend yields of 3.02%, 3.29%, and 3.58%, volatility factors of the expected market price of the Corporation’s common stock of 0.756, 0.593, and 0.290, and a weighted average expected option life of 6.8, 4.0, and 5.0.

In December 2004, FASB issued SFAS No. 123R, Share-Based Payment. SFAS No. 123R is a revision of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25. Among other items, SFAS No. 123R eliminates the use of APB Opinion No. 25 and the intrinsic value method of accounting and requires companies to recognize the cost of employee services received in exchange for awards of equity instruments, based on the grant date fair value of those awards, in the financial statements. The effective date of SFAS No. 123R is the first reporting period beginning after June 15, 2005, which is the third quarter 2005 for calendar year companies, although early adoption is allowed. SFAS No. 123R permits companies to adopt its requirements using either a "modified prospective" method, or a "modified retrospective" method. Under the "modified prospective" method, the compensation cost is recognized in the financial statements beginning with the effective date, based on the requirements of SFAS No. 123R for all share-based payments granted after that date, and based on the requirements of SFAS No. 123 for all unvested awards granted prior to the effective date of SFAS No. 123R. Under the "modified retrospective" method, the requirements are the same as under the "modified prospective" method, but this method also permits entities to restate financial statements of previous periods based on pro forma disclosures made in accordance with SFAS No. 123. The Corporation currently utilizes a standard option pricing model (i.e., Black-Scholes) to measure the fair value of stock options granted to employees. While SFAS No. 123R permits entities to continue to use such a model, the standard also permits the use of a "lattice" model. The Corporation has not yet determined which model it will use to measure the fair value of employee stock options upon the adoption of SFAS No. 123R. SFAS No. 123R also requires that the benefits associated with the tax deductions in excess of recognized compensation cost be reported as a financing cash flow, rather than as an operating cash flow as required under current literature. This requirement will reduce net operating cash flows and increase net financing cash flows in periods after the effective date. These future amounts cannot be estimated, because they depend on, among other things, when employees exercise stock options. However, the amount of operating cash flows recognized in prior periods for such excess tax deductions, as shown in the Corporation's Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, were $0.3 million, $0.2 million, and $0.1 million, respectively, for 2004, 2003, and 2002. The Corporation currently expects to adopt SFAS No. 123R effective July 1, 2005; however, the Corporation has not yet determined which of the aforementioned adoption methods it will use. Subject to a complete review of the requirements of SFAS No. 123R, based on stock options granted to employees through December 31, 2004 and stock options that were granted in January 2005, the Corporation expects that the adoption of SFAS No. 123R on July 1, 2005 will reduce both third quarter 2005 and fourth quarter 2005 net earnings by approximately $0.1 million ($0.01 per share, diluted) each. See note 12 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information.

Results of Operations

2004 Compared to 2003

Net income for 2004 was $31.0 million compared to $28.9 million for 2003. The increase in net income was primarily driven by a 10.2% increase in net interest income, as interest income increased 1.5% and interest expense decreased 15.3%. See the Net Interest Income section below for further information. Basic earnings per share for 2004 were $2.09 compared to $1.95 per share for 2003. The average shares outstanding in 2004 and 2003 were 14.8 million.

Net interest income for 2004 was $93.2 million compared to $84.6 million in 2003. Noninterest income was $33.9 million compared to $36.4 million in 2003 and noninterest expense was $74.6 million compared to $70.7 million in 2003. See the Noninterest Income and Noninterest Expense sections below for further information.

Return on average assets was 1.22% for 2004 compared to 1.16% in 2003, and return on average equity for 2004 was 13.48% compared to 13.43% in 2003.

Net Interest Income:

The Corporation's net interest margin of 4.05% was a 29 basis point increase from the 3.76% for the year ended December 31, 2003. Management expects that, as interest rates continue to rise, the Corporation will benefit in the short term as its variable rate commercial loan portfolio reprices at a more rapid pace than its liabilities but that, by the end of a twelve-month cycle, the margin will be slightly compressed as the repricing of liabilities occurs. For further information, see the table titled "Consolidated Average Balance Sheets and Taxable Equivalent Income/Expense and Yields/Rates" in the Selected Statistical Information.

Average earning assets were $2.3 billion at December 31, 2004 and at December 31, 2003. Average interest bearing liabilities were $1.9 billion at December 31, 2004 and at December 31, 2003. Average interest bearing liabilities as a percentage of average earning assets were 82.0% at December 31, 2004 compared to 83.7% in 2003.

The taxable equivalent yield on average earning assets was 5.65% for 2004 compared to 5.68% in 2003. The cost of average interest bearing liabilities was 1.94% for 2004 compared to 2.29% for 2003. The yield on interest bearing assets has been impacted by the change in the earning asset mix between the loan portfolio and the investment portfolio as well as by the change in market rates. Average loans accounted for 72.3% of average earning assets in 2003 while average loans accounted for 77.7% of average earning assets in 2004. Average loans accounted for 66.5% of total average assets for the year ended December 31, 2003 compared to 71.4% for the year ended December 31, 2004. Total loans as a percentage of total assets as of December 31, 2004 and 2003 were 70.2%.

Provision for Loan Losses and Allowance for Loan Losses:

The provision for loan losses that was added to the allowance was $8.6 million as of December 31, 2004 compared to $9.3 million for 2003. This provision represents a charge against current earnings in order to maintain the allowance at an appropriate level determined using the accounting estimates described in the Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates section. Loan losses, net of recoveries, as a percentage of average loans outstanding were 0.35% in 2004 compared to 0.48% in 2003 as net loan losses were $6.3 million for 2004 compared to $8.0 million for 2003.

Our reserve for losses on loans as a percentage of total loans outstanding remained flat at 1.42% as of December 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003.

Nonperforming loans at December 31, 2004 of $20.1 million, or 1.1% of total loans, increased from the $16.9 million, or 1.0% of total loans, at December 31, 2003. The Corporation's continued focus on liquidation of foreclosed properties has resulted in the decrease of foreclosed properties to $4.8 million on December 31, 2004 from the $6.6 million reported at December 31, 2003. Foreclosed properties consist primarily of 1-4 family residential real estate. Nonperforming assets at December 31, 2004 were $24.9 million compared to $23.5 million at December 31, 2003.

Noninterest Income:

Noninterest income for the year ended December 31, 2004 decreased 6.7% from prior year. The following table displays the year-to-date activity in the various significant noninterest income accounts.

Noninterest Expense:

Noninterest expense for the year ended December 31, 2004 of $74.6 million was a 5.5% increase from the $70.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. The increase in noninterest expense from prior year was primarily attributable to increased personnel expense due to the filling of budgeted key positions and the accrual of a performance-based incentive in the amount of $2.3 million. No incentive accrual was booked in 2003. The Corporation’s performance incentive plan requires a performance incentive payment to eligible employees if the Corporation reaches goals established by the Board of Directors. These goals were not met in 2003; however, they were met for the year 2004.

The efficiency ratio for the year ended December 31, 2004 improved almost 100 basis points to 58.25% from the 59.17% for the year ended December 31, 2003. The deposit to FTE (full-time equivalent) ratio decreased to $2.2 million at December 31, 2004 from $2.3 million at December 31, 2003.

2003 Compared to 2002

Net income for 2003 was $28.9 million compared to $27.6 million for 2002. The increase in net income was primarily driven by a 30.2% increase in noninterest income. See the Noninterest Income section below for additional information. Basic earnings per share for 2003 were $1.95 compared to $1.83 per share for 2002. The average shares outstanding in 2003 and 2002 were 14.8 million and 15.1 million, respectively.

Net interest income for 2003 was $84.6 million compared to $89.3 million in 2002. Noninterest income was $36.4 million compared to $27.9 million in 2002 and noninterest expense was $70.7 million compared to $67.3 million in 2002.

Return on average assets was 1.16% for 2003 compared to 1.12% in 2002, and return on average equity was 13.43% compared to 13.63% in 2002.

Net Interest Income:

The Corporation's net interest margin of 3.76% was a 26 basis point or 7.2% decrease from the 4.02% for the year ended December 31, 2002. However, the net interest margin had shown improvement as seen by the 31 basis point increase quarter-over-quarter from 3.62% for the quarter ended September 30, 2003 to 3.93% for the quarter ended December 31, 2003. The Corporation experienced growth in all three loan categories during the last seven months of 2003.

Average earning assets were $2.3 billion at December 31, 2003 and at December 31, 2002. Average interest bearing liabilities were $1.9 billion at December 31, 2003 and at December 31, 2002. Average interest bearing liabilities as a percentage of average earning assets were 83.7% at December 31, 2003 compared to 85.3% in 2002.

The taxable equivalent yield on average earning assets was 5.68% for 2003 compared to 6.54% in 2002. The cost of average interest bearing liabilities was 2.29% for 2003 compared to 2.96% for 2002. The yield on interest bearing assets had been impacted by the change in the earning asset mix between the loan portfolio and the investment portfolio as well as by the change in market rates. Average loans accounted for 73.2% of average earning assets in 2002 while average loans accounted for 72.3% of average earning assets in 2003. Average loans accounted for 67.3% of total average assets for the year ended December 31, 2002 compared to 66.5% for the year ended December 31, 2003. Total loans as a percentage of total assets as of December 31, 2003 and 2002 were 70.2% and 65.7%, respectively.

As was presented in the interest rate sensitivity table in the Liquidity and Market Risk section that was included in the Management Discussion and Analysis of the Corporation's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003, the Corporation’s gap position on December 31, 2003 was relatively flat as the Corporation had sold securities during the year and reinvested in securities with shorter maturities to offset the shortened term of its liabilities. During 2003, the Corporation sold floating rate securities, U.S. treasuries, and 15-year mortgage-backed securities and reinvested in agencies, municipals, and mortgage-backed securities with a slightly longer duration, but with a favorable increase in the portfolio’s taxable equivalent yield. This extension of duration on the asset side of the balance sheet was the primary factor in the Corporation’s estimated earnings sensitivity in a 200 basis point increased rate environment declining from 4.38% at December 31, 2002 to 1.46% at December 31, 2003.
 
Provision for Loan Losses and Allowance for Loan Losses:

The provision for loan losses that was added to the allowance was $9.3 million as of December 31, 2003 compared to $10.1 million for 2002. This provision represented a charge against current earnings in order to maintain the allowance at an appropriate level determined using the accounting estimates described above. Loan losses, net of recoveries, as a percentage of average loans outstanding were 0.48% in 2003 compared to 0.63% in 2002 as net loan losses were $8.0 million for 2003 compared to $10.5 million for 2002.

Our reserve for losses on loans as a percentage of total loans outstanding remained flat at 1.42% as of December 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002.

Asset quality improved for the Corporation with nonperforming loans decreasing to $16.9 million, a 25.7% decrease from the $22.7 million at December 31, 2002. Nonperforming assets also improved by 8.0% for the year 2003, reflecting management’s continued focus on improving asset quality.

Foreclosed properties on December 31, 2003 were $6.6 million, an increase from the $2.8 million at December 31, 2002. During the fourth quarter of 2003, the Corporation was successful in obtaining title to $3.1 million in real estate collateral from a problem credit that has been in foreclosure proceedings for approximately two years. The property was recorded at cost which was lower than market value. Foreclosed properties consisted primarily of 1-4 family residential real estate.

Noninterest Income:

Noninterest income for the year ended December 31, 2003 of $36.4 million was a 30.2% increase from the $27.9 million earned during 2002. Increased deposit service charge income due to the Overdraft Honor Program implemented in September 2002 and a 20% increase in the overdraft fee effective June 2003, gains on sales of securities, gains on sales of loans due to increased refinancing activity, and other noninterest income contributed to the increase in noninterest income year-over-year. Service charges on deposit accounts increased $3.6 million from December 31, 2002 to December 31, 2003, securities gains increased $1.5 million, gains on sales of loans increased $1.3 million, and other noninterest income increased $2.1 million. As residential mortgage refinancing slowed, the Corporation had a decrease in gains on sales of loans during the fourth quarter of 2003.

While the increase in residential real estate loan refinancing activity, due to the low interest rate environment, resulted in higher noninterest income from the gains on sales of loans, noninterest income was negatively impacted by charges to our valuation reserve for capitalized mortgage servicing rights of $1.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2003 compared to $1.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2002. The impact to earnings per share for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002 was $0.06 per share and $0.05 per share, respectively.

Noninterest Expense:

Noninterest expense increased 5.0% from $67.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2002 to $70.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. The increase in noninterest expense for the year was primarily attributable to increases in legal and professional fees, operating losses, and other noninterest expense. Legal and professional fees increased $1.0 million from December 31, 2002 to December 31, 2003, primarily due to fees incurred as a result of implementing the Overdraft Honor Program, operating losses increased $0.8 million, and other noninterest expense increased $1.6 million, including $0.8 million in nonrecurring charges to miscellaneous expense. Salaries and employee benefits remained relatively flat to prior year at $34.6 million; however, this line item included $1.8 million in charges in 2002 relative to the Corporation’s performance incentive plan. This plan requires a performance incentive payment to eligible employees if the Corporation reaches goals established by the Board of Directors. These goals were not met in 2003; however, if they were met in 2004, it was anticipated the cost would be approximately $2 million.

Our efficiency ratio was 59.2% at year-end 2003 compared to 57.3% at year-end 2002. The deposit to FTE (full-time equivalent) ratio decreased to $2.3 million at December 31, 2003 from $2.4 million at December 31, 2002.

Liquidity and Market Risk

The objective of the Corporation’s Asset/Liability management function is to maintain consistent growth in net interest income within the Corporation’s policy limits. This objective is accomplished through management of the Corporation’s consolidated balance sheet composition, liquidity, and interest rate risk exposures arising from changing economic conditions, interest rates, and customer preferences. The goal of liquidity management is to provide adequate funds to meet changes in loan and lease demand or unexpected deposit withdrawals. This is accomplished by maintaining liquid assets in the form of cash and cash equivalents and investment securities, maintaining sufficient unused borrowing capacity, and growth in core deposits. As of December 31, 2004, the Corporation had approximately $129 million in cash and cash equivalents and approximately $482 million in securities valued at estimated fair value designated as available-for-sale and available to meet liquidity needs on a continuing basis. Additional asset-driven liquidity is provided by the remainder of the securities portfolio and the repayment of loans. In addition to core deposit funding, the Corporation also accesses a variety of other short-term and long-term funding sources. The Corporation also relies on Federal Home Loan Bank advances for both liquidity and management of its asset/liability position. Federal Home Loan Bank advances were $162.4 million at December 31, 2004 compared to $3.2 million at December 31, 2003. The increase in Federal Home Loan Bank advances was a result of a transaction completed in August 2004, which increased our investment portfolio with funds borrowed from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Cincinnati, Ohio, as discussed earlier in the Management Discussion and Analysis. As of December 31, 2004, the Corporation had a $188.9 million available borrowing position with the Federal Home Loan Bank. The Corporation generally relies upon net inflows of cash from financing activities, supplemented by net inflows of cash from operating activities, to provide cash for its investing activities. As is typical of many financial institutions, significant financing activities include deposit gathering, use of short-term borrowing facilities such as repurchase agreements and federal funds purchased, and issuance of long-term debt. At December 31, 2004, the Corporation had a $12 million revolving line of credit, all of which is currently available to meet any future cash needs. The Corporation’s primary investing activities include purchases of securities and loan originations. Management does not rely on any one source of liquidity and manages availability in response to changing consolidated balance sheet needs.

The Corporation’s stock repurchase program began in December 1998 with the authorization to acquire up to 500,000 shares and was increased by an additional 1,000,000 shares in July 2000. The Corporation issued a press release on May 13, 2003 announcing its intention to repurchase up to 1,000,000 additional shares. The Corporation’s stock repurchase program continues to be accretive to shareholder value. During the year 2004, the Corporation acquired 55,000 shares of the Corporation’s stock. As of December 31, 2004, a total of 1,921,481 shares have been repurchased through this program. The following table shows Board allocations and repurchases made through the stock repurchase program for the years 1998 through 2004:

Management considers interest rate risk one of the Corporation’s most significant market risks. Interest rate risk is the exposure to adverse changes in net interest income due to changes in interest rates. Consistency of the Corporation’s net interest revenue is largely dependent upon the effective management of interest rate risk. The Corporation employs a variety of measurement techniques to identify and manage its interest rate risk including the use of an earnings simulation model to analyze net interest income sensitivity to changing interest rates. The model is based on actual cash flows and repricing characteristics for on and off-balance sheet instruments and incorporates market-based assumptions regarding the effect of changing interest rates on the prepayment rates of certain assets and liabilities. Assumptions based on the historical behavior of deposit rates and balances in relation to changes in interest rates are also incorporated into the model. These assumptions are inherently uncertain, and as a result, the model cannot precisely measure net interest income or precisely predict the impact of fluctuations in interest rates on net interest income. Actual results will differ from simulated results due to timing, magnitude, and frequency of interest rate changes as well as changes in market conditions and management strategies.

The Corporation’s Asset/Liability Management Committee (ALCO), which includes executive and senior management representatives and reports to the Board of Directors, monitors and manages interest rate risk within Board-approved policy limits. The Corporation’s current exposure to interest rate risks is determined by measuring the anticipated change in net interest income over a twelve-month period assuming a 200 basis point increase or decrease in rates, spread evenly over the twelve-month period. The following table shows the Corporation’s estimated earnings sensitivity profile as of December 31, 2004:

Change in Interest Rates
(basis points)
Percentage Change in Net Interest Income
(12 Months)
+200
5.26%
-200
(5.42)%

The following table shows the Corporation’s estimated earnings sensitivity profile as of December 31, 2003:

Change in Interest Rates
(basis points)
Percentage Change in Net Interest Income
(12 Months)
+200
1.46%
-200
(2.18)%

The simulation model used a 200 basis point increase in the yield curve spread evenly over a twelve-month period. The measurement at December 31, 2004 estimates that net interest income for the Corporation would increase by 5.26% over one year. A 200 basis point immediate and sustained decrease in interest rates would decrease net interest income by 5.42% over one year. In order to reduce the exposure to interest rate fluctuations and to manage liquidity, the Corporation has developed sale procedures for several types of interest-sensitive assets. Virtually all long-term, fixed rate single family residential mortgage loans underwritten according to Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation guidelines are sold for cash upon origination. Periodically, additional assets such as commercial loans are also sold. In 2004 and 2003, $68.6 million and $195.8 million, respectively, was realized on the sale of fixed rate residential mortgages. Management focuses its efforts on consistent net interest revenue and net interest margin growth through each of the retail and wholesale business lines. The Corporation does not currently engage in trading activities.
 
Capital Resources

The Corporation continues to grow its shareholders’ equity while also providing an average annual dividend yield during 2004 of 2.69% to shareholders. Shareholders’ equity of $236.2 million on December 31, 2004 is a 6.7% increase from the $221.4 million on December 31, 2003. The primary source of capital growth for the Corporation is retained earnings. Cash dividends were $0.87 per share for 2004 and $0.75 per share for 2003. The Corporation retained 58.4% of its earnings in 2004 compared to 61.7% in 2003.

Regulatory guidelines require bank holding companies, commercial banks, and savings banks to maintain certain minimum capital ratios and define companies as "well-capitalized" that sufficiently exceed the minimum ratios. The banking regulators may alter minimum capital requirements as a result of revising their internal policies and their ratings of individual institutions. To be "well-capitalized" banks and bank holding companies must maintain a Tier 1 leverage ratio of no less than 5.0%, a Tier 1 risk based ratio of no less than 6.0%, and a total risk based ratio of no less than 10.0%. The Corporation’s ratios as of December 31, 2004 were 8.78%, 11.82%, and 13.07%, respectively. Community Trust Bancorp, Inc. and it subsidiaries met the criteria for "well-capitalized" at December 31, 2004. See note 18 to the consolidated financial statements for further information.

Upon the early adoption of FIN 46 effective July 1, 2003, the Corporation deconsolidated CTBI Preferred Capital Trust and CTBI Preferred Capital Trust II, resulting in a recharacterization of the underlying consolidated debt obligations from the previous trust preferred securities obligations to junior subordinated debenture obligations. Under the current Federal Reserve Board’s regulatory framework, the junior subordinated debenture obligations both qualify as total capital for regulatory capital purposes. The Federal Reserve Board is currently evaluating whether these capital securities should continue to qualify as Tier 1 capital as a result of deconsolidating the related trust preferred securities in accordance with generally accepted accounting principals. If the Federal Reserve Board disallows the capital securities as Tier 1 regulatory capital, the effect of such a change could have a material impact on the Corporation’s regulatory ratios.

As of December 31, 2004, management is not aware of any current recommendations by banking regulatory authorities which, if they were to be implemented, would have, or are reasonably likely to have, a material adverse impact on the Corporation’s liquidity, capital resources, or operations.

Impact of Inflation, Changing Prices, and Local Economic Conditions

The majority of the Corporation’s assets and liabilities are monetary in nature. Therefore, the Corporation differs greatly from most commercial and industrial companies that have significant investments in non-monetary assets, such as fixed assets and inventories. However, inflation does have an important impact on the growth of assets in the banking industry and on the resulting need to increase equity capital at higher than normal rates in order to maintain an appropriate equity to assets ratio. Inflation also affects other expenses, which tend to rise during periods of general inflation.

Management believes the most significant impact on financial and operating results is the Corporation’s ability to react to changes in interest rates. Management seeks to maintain an essentially balanced position between interest sensitive assets and liabilities in order to protect against the effects of wide interest rate fluctuations.

Our success is dependent on the general economic conditions of the communities we serve. Unlike larger banks that are more geographically diversified, we provide financial and banking services primarily to eastern, northeast, central, and south central Kentucky and southern West Virginia. The economic conditions in these areas have a significant impact on loan demand, the ability of borrowers to repay loans, and the value of the collateral securing loans. A significant decline in general economic conditions will affect these local economic conditions and will negatively affect the financial results of our banking operations. Factors influencing general conditions include inflation, recession, unemployment, and other factors beyond our control.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation - The consolidated financial statements include Community Trust Bancorp, Inc. (the "Corporation") and its subsidiaries, including its principal subsidiary, Community Trust Bank, Inc. (the "Bank"). Intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management must make certain estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the amounts reported for assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, as well as affecting the disclosures provided. Future results could differ from the current estimates. Such estimates include, but are not limited to, the allowance for loan losses, fair value of securities and mortgage servicing rights, and goodwill (the excess of cost over net assets acquired).

Nature of Operations - Substantially all assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses are related to banking operations, including lending, investing of funds, obtaining of deposits, trust operations, full service brokerage operations, and other financing. All of the Corporation’s business offices and the majority of its business are located in eastern, northeast, central, and south central Kentucky and southern West Virginia.

Cash and Cash Equivalents - Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, amounts due from banks, interest bearing deposits in other financial institutions, and federal funds sold. Generally, federal funds are sold for one-day periods.

Investments - Management determines the classification of securities at purchase. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, the Corporation classifies securities into held-to-maturity or available-for-sale categories. Held-to-maturity securities are those which the Corporation has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity and are reported at amortized cost. Available-for-sale securities are those the Corporation may decide to sell if needed for liquidity, asset/liability management, or other reasons. Available-for-sale securities are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses included as a separate component of shareholders’ equity, net of tax. If declines in fair value are not temporary, the carrying value of the securities is written down to fair value as a realized loss.

Gains or losses on disposition of securities are computed by specific identification for all securities except for shares in mutual funds, which are computed by average cost. Interest and dividend income, adjusted by amortization of purchase premium or discount, is included in earnings.

Loans - Loans are reported at the carrying value of unpaid principal reduced by unearned interest and an allowance for loan losses. Income is recorded on the level yield basis. Interest accrual is discontinued when management believes, after considering economic and business conditions, collateral value, and collection efforts, that the borrower’s financial condition is such that collection of interest is doubtful. Any loan greater than 90 days past due must be well secured and in the process of collection to continue accruing interest. Cash payments received on nonaccrual loans generally are applied against principal, and interest income is only recorded once principal recovery is reasonably assured. Loans are not reclassified as accruing until principal and interest payments are brought current and future payments appear reasonably certain.

Allowance for Loan Losses - The adequacy of the allowance is reviewed quarterly by management using a methodology that includes several key factors. The Corporation utilizes an internal risk grading system for commercial credits, and those larger commercial credits identified through this grading system as having weaknesses are individually reviewed for the customer's ability and potential to repay their loans. The borrower’s cash flow, adequacy of collateral held for the loan, and other options available to the Corporation including legal avenues are all evaluated. Based upon this individual credit evaluation, a specific allocation to the allowance may be made for the loan.

For other commercial loans that are not individually evaluated, an allowance allocation is determined by applying an eight-quarter moving average historical loss rate for this group of loans. Consumer installment and residential mortgage loans are not individually risk graded. Allowance allocations are provided for these pools of loans based upon an eight-quarter moving average historical loss rate for each of these categories of loans.

An unallocated portion of the allowance is also determined in recognition of the inherent inability to precisely determine the loss potential in any particular loan or pool of loans. The factors considered by management in determining this amount of inherent risk include delinquency trends, current economic conditions and trends, strength of the supervision and administration of the loan portfolio, level of nonperforming loans, trend in loan losses, recovery rates associated with previously charged-off loans, concentrations within commercial credits, problem loan identification strengths and weaknesses, collateral evaluation strengths and weaknesses, and the level of financial statement exceptions. These factors are reviewed quarterly and weighted as deemed appropriate by management. The total of these weighted factors is then applied against the total loan portfolio and the allowance is adjusted accordingly.

Mortgage loans originated and intended for sale in the secondary market are carried at the lower of cost or estimated market value in the aggregate. Net unrealized losses, if any, are recognized in a valuation allowance by charges to income.

Premises and Equipment - Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Capital leases are included in premises and equipment at the capitalized amount less accumulated amortization.

Depreciation and amortization are computed primarily using the straight-line method. Estimated useful lives range up to 40 years for buildings, 2 to 10 years for furniture, fixtures, and equipment, and up to the lease term for leasehold improvements. Capitalized leased assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the lives of the respective leases.
 
Other Real Estate - Real estate acquired by foreclosure is carried at the lower of the investment in the property or its fair value. Other real estate owned by the Corporation included in other assets at December 31, 2004 and 2003 was $4.8 million and $7.0 million, respectively.

Goodwill - The Corporation evaluates total goodwill for impairment, based upon SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets and SFAS No. 147, Acquisitions of Certain Financial Institutions, using fair value techniques including multiples of price/equity. Goodwill is evaluated for impairment on an annual basis.

Loan Servicing Rights - Servicing assets are recognized as separate assets when rights are acquired through purchase or through sale of financial assets with servicing retained. Capitalized servicing rights are amortized against noninterest income in proportion to, and over the period of, the estimated future life of the underlying financial assets. Servicing assets are evaluated for impairment based upon the fair value of the rights as compared to amortized cost. Fair value is determined using prices for similar assets with like characteristics. Servicing rights are assessed for impairment quarterly, based on fair value, with temporary impairment recognized through a valuation allowance and permanent impairment recognized through a write-off of the servicing asset and related valuation reserve. A subsequent increase in the fair value of servicing rights that were previously determined to be temporarily impaired is recorded as a reduction in the capitalized servicing rights valuation reserve.
 
       Income Taxes - Income tax expense is based on the taxes due on the consolidated tax return plus deferred taxes based on the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates.

Earnings Per Share ("EPS") - Basic EPS is calculated by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.

Diluted EPS adjusts the number of weighted average shares of common stock outstanding under the treasury stock method, which includes the dilutive effect of stock options.

Basic and diluted EPS have been restated for 2002 and 2003 to reflect the 10 percent common stock dividend paid on December 15, 2004.

Effects of Accounting Changes - -

Ø  Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities - In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Interpretation No. 46 ("FIN 46"), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin 51. The primary objectives of this interpretation are to provide guidance on the identification of entities for which control is achieved through means other than through voting rights (variable interest entities) and how to determine when and which business enterprise (the primary beneficiary) should consolidate the variable interest entity. This new model for consolidation applies to an entity in which either (a) the equity investors (if any) do not have a controlling financial interest, or (b) the equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance that entity’s activities without receiving additional subordinated financial support from other parties. In addition, FIN 46 requires that the primary beneficiary, as well as all other enterprises with a significant variable interest in a variable interest entity, make additional disclosures. Certain disclosure requirements of FIN 46 were effective for financial statements issued after January 31, 2003. In December 2003, FASB issued FIN 46 (revised December 2003), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities ("FIN 46-R") to address certain FIN 46 implementation issues. The provisions of FIN 46 were applicable for variable interests in entities obtained after January 31, 2003. The adoption of the provisions applicable to special purpose entities ("SPEs") and all other variable interests obtained after January 31, 2003 did not have a material impact on the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements. Effective March 31, 2004, the Corporation adopted the provisions of FIN 46-R applicable to non-SPEs created prior to February 1, 2003. Adoption of FIN 46-R had no impact on the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements.

Ø  Accounting for Certain Loans and Debt Securities Acquired in a Transfer - In December 2003, the Accounting Standards Executive Committee of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued Statement of Position ("SOP") 03-3, Accounting for Certain Loans and Debt Securities Acquired in a Transfer. SOP 03-3 addresses the accounting for certain acquired loans that show evidence of credit deterioration since their origination (i.e. impaired loans) and for which a loss is deemed probable of occurring. SOP 03-3 prohibits the carryover of an allowance for loan loss on certain acquired loans within its scope. SOP 03-3 is effective for loans that are acquired in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2004. The Corporation will evaluate the applicability of this SOP for all prospective loans acquired in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2004. The Corporation does not anticipate this Statement to have material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

Ø  Application of Accounting Principles to Loan Commitments - In March 2004, the Securities and Exchange Commission staff released Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 105, Application of Accounting Principles to Loan Commitments. This SAB disallows the inclusion of expected future cash flows related to the servicing of a loan in the determination of the fair value of a loan commitment. Further, no other internally developed intangible asset should be recorded as part of the loan commitment derivative. Recognition of intangible assets would only be appropriate in a third-party transaction, such as a purchase of a loan commitment or in a business combination. The SAB is effective for all loan commitments entered into after March 31, 2004, but does not require retroactive adoption for loan commitments entered into on or before March 31, 2004. Adoption of this SAB did not have a material effect on the Corporation's consolidated financial statements.

Ø  The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments - In March 2004, a consensus was reached on the Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") Issue 03-1, The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments. The EITF reached a consensus on an other-than-temporary impairment model for debt and equity securities accounted for under SFAS No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, and cost method investments. The basic model developed to evaluate whether an investment within the scope of Issue 03-1 is other-than-temporarily impaired involves a three-step process including determining whether an investment is impaired (fair value less than cost), evaluating whether the impairment is other-than-temporary (including the Corporation's intent and ability to hold the impaired securities until the cost is recovered) and, if other-than-temporary, requiring recognition of an impairment loss equal to the difference between the investment's cost and its fair value. The first step in the model used to determine other-than-temporary impairments shall be applied prospectively to all current and future investments in interim or annual reporting periods beginning after June 15, 2004. The second and third steps in the model have been delayed pending issuance of proposed FASB Staff Position EITF 03-1-a., Implementation Guidance for the Application of Paragraph 16 of EITF Issue No. 03-1, The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments. At December 31, 2004, the Corporation had approximately $4.0 million in gross unrealized losses, none of which is considered to be other than temporary impairment. The Corporation is evaluating the impact of this Issue.

Ø  Stock-Based Employee Compensation - The Corporation currently maintains two incentive stock option plans covering key employees; however, only one plan is active. The 1998 Stock Option Plan ("1998 Plan") was approved by the Board of Directors and the Shareholders in 1998. The 1998 Plan had 1,046,831 shares authorized, 432,770 of which were available at December 31, 2004 for future grants. All options granted have a maximum term of ten years. Options granted as management retention options vest after five years, all other options vest ratably over four years. The Corporation has elected to follow Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees and related interpretations in accounting for its employee stock options. Under APB Opinion No. 25, because the exercise price of all employee stock options equals the market price of the underlying stock on the date of the grant, no compensation expense is recognized.

Had compensation cost for the Corporation’s stock options granted in 2004, 2003, and 2002 been determined under the fair value approach described in SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, the Corporation’s net income and earnings per share would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts indicated below:

The fair value of the options presented above was estimated at the date of the grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions for 2004, 2003, and 2002, respectively: risk-free interest rates of 3.70%, 2.69%, and 3.68%, dividend yields of 3.02%, 3.29%, and 3.58%, volatility factors of the expected market price of the Corporation’s common stock of 0.76, 0.59, and 0.29, and a weighted average expected option life of 6.8, 4.0, and 5.0.

In December 2004, FASB issued SFAS No. 123R, Share-Based Payment. SFAS No. 123R is a revision of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25. Among other items, SFAS No. 123R eliminates the use of APB Opinion No. 25 and the intrinsic value method of accounting and requires companies to recognize the cost of employee services received in exchange for awards of equity instruments, based on the grant date fair value of those awards, in the financial statements. The effective date of SFAS No. 123R is the first reporting period beginning after June 15, 2005, which is the third quarter 2005 for calendar year companies, although early adoption is allowed. SFAS No. 123R permits companies to adopt its requirements using either a "modified prospective" method, or a "modified retrospective" method. Under the "modified prospective" method, the compensation cost is recognized in the financial statements beginning with the effective date, based on the requirements of SFAS No. 123R for all share-based payments granted after that date, and based on the requirements of SFAS No. 123 for all unvested awards granted prior to the effective date of SFAS No. 123R. Under the "modified retrospective" method, the requirements are the same as under the "modified prospective" method, but this method also permits entities to restate financial statements of previous periods based on pro forma disclosures made in accordance with SFAS No. 123. The Corporation currently utilizes a standard option pricing model (i.e., Black-Scholes) to measure the fair value of stock options granted to employees. While SFAS No. 123R permits entities to continue to use such a model, the standard also permits the use of a "lattice" model. The Corporation has not yet determined which model it will use to measure the fair value of employee stock options upon the adoption of SFAS No. 123R. SFAS No. 123R also requires that the benefits associated with the tax deductions in excess of recognized compensation cost be reported as a financing cash flow, rather than as an operating cash flow as required under current literature. This requirement will reduce net operating cash flows and increase net financing cash flows in periods after the effective date. These future amounts cannot be estimated, because they depend on, among other things, when employees exercise stock options. However, the amount of operating cash flows recognized in prior periods for such excess tax deductions, as shown in the Corporation's Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, were $0.3 million, $0.2 million, and $0.1 million, respectively, for 2004, 2003, and 2002. The Corporation currently expects to adopt SFAS No. 123R effective July 1, 2005; however, the Corporation has not yet determined which of the aforementioned adoption methods it will use. Subject to a complete review of the requirements of SFAS No. 123R, based on stock options granted to employees through December 31, 2004 and stock options that were granted in January 2005, the Corporation expects that the adoption of SFAS No. 123R on July 1, 2005 will reduce both third quarter 2005 and fourth quarter 2005 net earnings by approximately $0.1 million ($0.01 per share, diluted) each. See note 12 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information.

Reclassification - Certain reclassifications have been made in the prior year consolidated financial statements to conform to current year classifications.

2. Cash and Due from Banks

Included in cash and due from banks are noninterest bearing deposits that are required to be held at the Federal Reserve or maintained in vault cash in accordance with regulatory reserve requirements. The balance requirements were $36.8 million and $31.8 million at December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Cash paid during the years ended 2004, 2003, and 2002 for interest was $36.4 million, $45.4 million, and $59.8 million, respectively. Cash paid during the same periods for income taxes was $11.5 million, $9.3 million and $11.0 million, respectively.

Not included in the loan balances above are loans held for sale in the amount of $0.3 at December 31, 2003.

The amount of loans on a non-accruing income status was $13.8 million and $9.7 million at December 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively. Additional interest which would have been recorded during 2004, 2003, and 2002 if such loans had been accruing interest was approximately $0.9 million, $0.9 million, and $2.1 million, respectively.

    At December 31, 2004, 2003, and 2002, the recorded investment in impaired loans was $9.6 million, $6.5 million, and $14.5 million, respectively. Included in these amounts at December 31, 2004, 2003, and 2002, respectively, are $7.0 million, $3.0 million, and $6.0 million of impaired loans for which specific reserves for loan losses are carried in the amounts of $3.1 million, $1.1 million, and $1.4 million. The average investment in impaired loans for 2004, 2003, and 2002 was $9.7 million, $6.6 million, and $15.0 million, respectively, while interest income of $0.1 million, $0.1 million, and $0.2 million was recognized on cash payments of $0.4 million, $0.4 million, and $0.5 million.

5. Related Party Transactions

In the ordinary course of business, the Corporation’s banking subsidiary has made loans at prevailing interest rates and terms to directors and executive officers of the Corporation or its subsidiaries, including their associates (as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission). Management believes such loans were made on substantially the same terms, including interest rate and collateral, as those prevailing at the same time for comparable transactions with other persons. The aggregate amount of these loans at January 1, 2004 was $32.0 million. During 2004, activity with respect to these loans included new loans of $2.7 million, repayment of $3.4 million, and a net increase of $0.4 million resulting from the change in status of executive officers and directors. As a result of these activities, the aggregate balance of these loans was $31.7 million at December 31, 2004.

At December 31, 2004, 2003, and 2002, loans serviced for the benefit of others, not included in the detail above, totaled $377 million, $383 million, and $331 million, respectively.

The Corporation reports income taxes on the liability method, which places primary emphasis on the valuation of current and deferred tax assets and liabilities. The amount of income tax expense recognized for a period is the amount of income taxes currently payable or refundable, plus or minus the change in aggregate deferred tax assets and liabilities. The method focuses first on the consolidated balance sheet, and the amount of income tax expense is determined by changes in the components of the consolidated balance sheet.

12. Employee Benefits

The Corporation has a KSOP plan covering substantially all employees. Half of the first 8% of wages contributed by an employee is matched and goes into the savings and retirement portion of the plan. Employees may contribute additional non-matched amounts up to maximum limits provided by IRS regulations, and the Corporation may at its discretion, contribute an additional percentage of covered employees’ gross wages.

The Corporation currently contributes 4% of covered employees’ gross wages to the employee stock ownership plan (ESOP) portion of the plan. The ESOP uses the contribution to acquire shares of the Corporation’s common stock. The KSOP plan owned 1,123,807 shares of Corporation stock at December 31, 2004. Substantially all shares owned by the KSOP were allocated to employees’ accounts at December 31, 2004. The market price of the shares at the date of allocation is essentially the same as the market price at the date of purchase.

The total retirement plan expense, including KSOP expense, for 2004, 2003, and 2002 was $1.8 million, $1.6 million and $1.6 million, respectively.

The Corporation currently maintains two incentive stock option plans covering key employees; however, only one plan is active. The 1998 Stock Option Plan ("1998 Plan") was approved by the Board of Directors and the Shareholders in 1998. The 1998 Plan had 1,046,831 shares authorized, 432,770 of which were available at December 31, 2004 for future grants. All options granted have a maximum term of ten years. Options granted as management retention options vest after five years, all other options vest ratably over four years.

The Corporation has elected to follow APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees and related interpretations in accounting for its employee stock options. Under APB Opinion No. 25, because the exercise price of all employee stock options equals the market price of the underlying stock on the date of the grant, no compensation expense is recognized.

The Corporation’s stock option activity for the 1998 Plan for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003, and 2002 is summarized as follows:

14. Fair Market 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 Cash Equivalents - The carrying amount approximates fair value.

Securities - - Fair values are based on quoted market prices or dealer quotes.

Loans and Loans Held for Sale - The fair value of fixed rate loans and variable rate mortgage loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities. For other variable rate loans, the carrying amount approximates fair value.

FHLB Stock - The carrying value of Federal Home Loan Bank stock approximates fair value based on the redemption provisions of the Federal Home Loan Bank.

Deposits - - The fair value of deposits is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.

Short-term Borrowings - The carrying amount approximates fair value.

Advances from Federal Home Loan Bank - The fair value of these fixed-maturity advances is estimated by discounting future cash flows using rates currently offered for advances of similar remaining maturities.

Long-term Debt - The fair value is estimated by discounting future cash flows using current rates.

Other Financial Instruments - The estimated fair value for other financial instruments and off-balance sheet loan commitments approximates cost at December 31, 2004 and 2003. Off-balance sheet loan commitments at December 31, 2004 and 2003 were $366.1 million and $299.7 million, respectively.

Commitments to Extend Credit - The fair value of commitments to extend credit is based upon the difference between the interest rate at which the Corporation is committed to make the loans and the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities, adjusted for the estimated volume of loan commitments actually expected to close. The fair value of such commitments is not material.

15. Off-Balance Sheet Transactions and Guarantees

The Bank is a party to transactions with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include standby letters of credit and commitments to extend credit in the form of unused lines of credit. The Bank uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments.

At December 31, the Bank had the following off-balance sheet financial instruments, whose approximate contract amounts represent additional credit risk to the Corporation:

Standby letters of credit
$
39,313
$
30,654
Commitments to extend credit
 
326,784
 
269,095

Standby letters of credit represent conditional commitments to guarantee the performance of a third party. The credit risk involved is essentially the same as the risk involved in making loans. At December 31, 2004, the Corporation maintained a credit loss reserve of approximately $0.02 million relating to these financial standby letters of credit. The reserve coverage calculation was determined using essentially the same methodology used for the allowance for loan losses. Approximately 83% of the total standby letters of credit are secured, with $26.3 million of the total $39.3 million secured by cash. Collateral for the remaining secured standby letters of credit varies but is comprised primarily of accounts receivable, inventory, property, equipment, and income-producing properties.

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. The Bank evaluates each customer’s credit-worthiness on a case-by-case basis. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. A portion of the commitments is to extend credit at fixed rates. Fixed rate loan commitments at December 31, 2004 of $19.4 million had interest rates and terms ranging predominantly from 7.00% to 8.99% and 6 months to 1 year, respectively. These credit commitments were based on prevailing rates, terms, and conditions applicable to other loans being made at December 31, 2004.

16. Concentrations of Credit Risk

The Corporation’s banking subsidiary grants commercial, residential, and consumer loans to customers primarily located in eastern, northeast, central, and south central Kentucky and southern West Virginia. The Bank is continuing to increase all components of its portfolio mix in a manner to reduce risk from changes in economic conditions. Concentrations of credit, as defined for regulatory purposes, are reviewed quarterly by management to ensure that internally established limits based on Tier 1 Capital plus the allowance for loan losses are not exceeded. At December 31, 2004 and 2003, the Corporation’s concentration of hotel/motel industry credits were 41% and 37% of Tier 1 Capital plus the allowance for loan losses, respectively. Coal mining and related support industries credits at December 31, 2004 and 2003 based on established limits were 37% and 44% of Tier 1 Capital plus the allowance for loan losses, respectively. Agricultural credits at December 31, 2004 and 2003 were 35% and 40% of Tier 1 Capital plus the allowance for loan losses, respectively. These exposures were in the tobacco, beef cattle, dairy, and equine subsectors of this industry. Apartment and rental housing credits at December 31, 2004 and 2003 were 26% and 27%, respectively. These percentages are within the Corporation’s internally established limits regarding concentrations of credit.

17. Commitments and Contingencies

The Corporation and its subsidiaries, and from time to time, its officers are named defendants in legal actions arising from ordinary business activities. Management, after consultation with legal counsel, believes these actions are without merit or that the ultimate liability, if any, will not materially affect the Corporation’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

18. Regulatory Matters

The Corporation’s principal source of funds is dividends received from the subsidiary bank. Regulations limit the amount of dividends that may be paid by the Corporation’s banking subsidiary without prior approval. During 2005, approximately $30.1 million plus any 2005 net profits can be paid by the Corporation’s banking subsidiary without prior regulatory approval.

The Federal Reserve Bank adopted quantitative measures which assign risk weightings to assets and off-balance-sheet items and also define and set minimum regulatory capital requirements (risk-based capital ratios). All banks are required to have a minimum Tier 1 (core capital) leverage ratio of 4% of adjusted quarterly average assets, Tier 1 capital of at least 4% of risk-weighted assets, and total capital of at least 8% of risk-weighted assets. Tier 1 capital consists principally of shareholders’ equity including capital-qualifying subordinated debt but excluding unrealized gains and losses on securities available-for-sale, less goodwill and certain other intangibles. Total capital consists of Tier 1 capital plus certain debt instruments and the reserve for credit losses, subject to limitation. Failure to meet certain capital requirements can initiate certain actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the consolidated financial statements of the Corporation. The regulations also define well-capitalized levels of Tier 1 leverage, Tier 1, and total capital as 5%, 6%, and 10%, respectively. The Corporation had Tier 1 leverage, Tier 1, and total capital ratios above the well-capitalized levels at December 31, 2004 and 2003. Management believes, as of December 31, 2004, the Corporation meets all capital adequacy requirements for which it is subject to be defined as well-capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action.

Under the current Federal Reserve Board’s regulatory framework, certain capital securities offered by wholly owned unconsolidated trust preferred entities of the Corporation are included as Tier 1 regulatory capital. On March 1, 2005, the Federal Reserve Board adopted a final rule that allows the continued limited inclusion of trust preferred securities in the Tier 1 capital of bank holding companies ("BHCs"). Under the final rule, trust preferred securities and other restricted core capital elements will be subject to stricter quantitative limits. The Board's final rule limits restricted core capital elements to 25 percent of all core capital elements, net of goodwill less any associated deferred tax liability. Internationally active BHCs, defined as those with consolidated assets greater than $250 billion or on-balance-sheet foreign exposure greater than $10 billion, will be subject to a 15 percent limit, but they may include qualifying mandatory convertible preferred securities up to the generally applicable 25 percent limit. Amounts of restricted core capital elements in excess of these limits generally may be included in Tier 2 capital. The final rule provides a five-year transition period, ending March 31, 2009, for application of the quantitative limits. The requirement for trust preferred securities to include a call option has been eliminated, and standards for the junior subordinated debt underlying trust preferred securities eligible for tier 1 capital treatment have been clarified. The final rule addresses supervisory concerns, competitive equity considerations, and the accounting for trust preferred securities. The final rule also strengthens the definition of regulatory capital by incorporating longstanding Board policies regarding the acceptable terms of capital instruments included in banking organizations' Tier 1 or Tier 2 capital. It is not anticipated that the final rule will have a material impact on the Corporation's regulatory ratios.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders
Community Trust Bancorp, Inc.
Pikeville, Kentucky

We have audited the accompanying statements of financial condition of Community Trust Bancorp, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Corporation") as of December 31, 2004 and 2003, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2004.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Corporation’s management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Community Trust Bancorp, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2004 and 2003, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2004, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004, based on the criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated March 11, 2005 expressed an unqualified opinion on management’s assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting and an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders
Community Trust Bancorp, Inc.
Pikeville, Kentucky

We have audited management’s assessment, included in the accompanying Management Report on Internal Control, that Community Trust Bancorp, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Corporation") maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004, based on the criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.  Because management’s assessment and our audit were conducted to meet the reporting requirements of Section 112 of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act (FDICIA), management’s assessment and our audit of the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting included controls over the preparation of the schedules equivalent to the basic financial statements in accordance with the instructions for the Consolidated Financial Statements for Bank Holding Companies (Form FR Y-9C).  The Corporation’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on management’s assessment and an opinion on the effectiveness of the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.  Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, evaluating management’s assessment, testing, and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances.  We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinions.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the company’s principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the company’s board of directors, management, and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.  A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of the inherent limitations of internal control over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.  Also, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, management’s assessment that the Corporation maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004, is fairly stated, in all material respects, based on the criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.  Also, in our opinion, the Corporation maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004, based on the criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

We have not examined and, accordingly, we do not express an opinion or any other form of assurance on management's statement referring to compliance with laws and regulations.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2004 of the Corporation and our report dated March 11, 2005 expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements With Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure

None

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures

The Corporation's management is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective disclosure controls and procedures, as defined under Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. As of December 31, 2004, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Controller, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Corporation's disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, management concluded that disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2004 were effective in ensuring material information required to be disclosed in this annual report on Form 10-K was recorded, processed, summarized, and reported on a timely basis. Additionally, there were no changes in the Corporation's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended December 31, 2004 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Corporation's internal control over financial reporting.

Management's responsibilities related to establishing and maintaining effective disclosure controls and procedures include maintaining effective internal controls over financial reporting that are designed to produce reliable financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. As disclosed in the Management Report on Internal Control which follows, management assessed the Corporation's system of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004, in relation to criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting as described in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this assessment, management believes that, as of December 31, 2004, its system of internal control over financial reporting met those criteria and is effective.

There have been no significant changes in the Corporation's internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to December 31, 2004.
 


MANAGEMENT REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL

We, as management of Community Trust Bancorp, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the "Corporation"), are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the company’s principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the company’s board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:

·  
Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company;

·  
Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and

·  
Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Management has evaluated the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004 based on the control criteria established in a report entitled Internal Control—Integrated Framework, issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on such evaluation, we have concluded that the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting is effective as of December 31, 2004.

The registered independent public accounting firm of Deloitte & Touche LLP, as auditors of the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements, has issued an attestation report on management’s assessment of the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting.
