OLD POINT FINANCIAL CORPORATION ANNOUNCES

THIRD QUARTER 2005 EARNINGS

October 18, 2005, Hampton, VA Old Point Financial Corporation (Nasdaq “OPOF”) announced today that its assets rose to $728.2 million, a 5% increase over September 30, 2004 assets of $692 million. Net loans increased by 10% to $466.2 million. Net income for the quarter was $1.7 million and $5.6 million for the nine months ending September 30 2005, as compared with third quarter 2004 net income of $2.1 million and $6.5 million for the first nine months of 2004. Basic earnings per share were $.43 for the quarter and $1.40 year-to-date. Diluted earnings per share for the same periods were $.42 and $1.38, respectively.

“We are building for the future,” said Robert F. Shuford, Chairman President and CEO of Old Point Financial Corporation. “We have increased staff by twenty people since last year. The additional positions are to staff and support three new branches that either are already open, or will open within the next few months. In fact, our investment has already begun to pay off – net loans grew by $33 million during the third quarter. “ The Independence office in the Town Center area of Virginia Beach is now open. The office, the eighteenth location for Old Point National Bank, also is home to a commercial lending staff. The nineteenth office, in the Eagle Harbor section of Isle of Wight County, should open in early 2006. Eagle Harbor will be the third new office to open within a twelve month period.

Net interest income has declined due to a significant increase in the cost of deposits and other funding sources. While short term interest rates have risen dramatically in the past twelve months, longer term rates have remained fairly stable. This compression of the yield curve has put pressure on the net interest margin.

Other factors affecting earnings are a significant increase in salaries and employee expenses and an increase in Marketing expenses associated with a front-end loaded consumer deposit strategy. In addition, as a publicly traded company on NASDAQ, Old Point Financial Corporation is subject to the requirements of the Sarbanes Oxley Act (SOX), which requires companies to ensure compliance with stringent internal control procedures. Old Point has committed significant resources to comply with Sarbanes Oxley.

Return on Average Assets (ROA) for year-to-date 2005 is 1.08%, and Return on Average Equity (ROE) is 10.69%.

Old Point Financial Corporation, ("OPOF" - Nasdaq SmallCap Market) is the parent company of Old Point National Bank, a locally owned and managed community bank serving Hampton Roads with a 18-branch network extending from Chesapeake through James City County, and Old Point Trust & Financial Services, N.A., a Hampton Roads wealth management services provider.
