UWHARRIE CAPITAL CORP AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Note 1 – Basis of Presentation

The financial statements and accompanying notes are presented on a consolidated basis including Uwharrie Capital Corp (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries, Bank of Stanly (“Stanly”), Anson Bank & Trust Co. (“Anson”), Cabarrus Bank & Trust Company (“Cabarrus”), Strategic Investment Advisors, Inc. (“SIA”), and Uwharrie Mortgage Inc. Stanly consolidates its subsidiaries, the Strategic Alliance Corporation, BOS Agency, Inc. and Gateway Mortgage, Inc., each of which is wholly-owned by Stanly.

The information contained in the consolidated financial statements is unaudited. In the opinion of management, the consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and material adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of results of interim periods, all of which are of a normal recurring nature, have been made. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for an entire year. Management is not aware of economic events, outside influences or changes in concentrations of business that would require additional clarification or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements.

The organization and business of the Company, accounting policies followed by the Company and other information are contained in the notes to consolidated financial statements filed as part of the Company’s 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K. This Quarterly report should be read in conjunction with such Annual Report.

Note 2 – Comprehensive Income

Accounting principles generally require that recognized revenue, expenses, gains and losses be included in net income. Although certain changes in assets and liabilities, such as unrealized gains and losses on available for sale securities, are reported as a separate component of the equity section of the balance sheet, such items, along with net income, are components of comprehensive income.

Note 3 – Per Share Data

Basic and diluted net income per common share is computed based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during each period after retroactively adjusting for stock dividends. Diluted net income per common share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the net income of the Company. For the three months ended March 31, 2010, the Company’s 213,190 stock options outstanding did not have a dilutive effect on per share results because the exercise prices exceeded the average share values for each period.

Basic and diluted net income per common share have been computed based upon net income available to common shareholders as presented in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding or assumed to be outstanding. The computation of basic and dilutive earnings per share is summarized below:

At March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009 the Company owned Federal Reserve stock reported at cost of $778,850 and included in other assets. Also at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the Company owned Federal Home Loan Bank Stock (FHLB) of $3.2 million. The investments in Federal Reserve stock and FHLB stock are required investments related to the Company’s membership and borrowings with these banks. These investments are carried at cost since there is no ready market and historically redemption has been made at par value. The Company estimated that the fair value approximated cost and that these investments were not impaired at March 31, 2010.

Results from sales of securities available for sale for the three month period ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009 are as follows:

The Company routinely conducts reviews to identify and evaluate each investment security to determine whether OTTI has occurred using several economic models. To determine if the unrealized loss is other-than-temporary, the Company project total estimated defaults of the underlying troubled and non performing assets (mortgages) and multiplies that calculated amount by an estimate of realizable value upon sale in the marketplace (severity) in order to determine the projected collateral loss. The Company also evaluates the current credit enhancement underlying the bond to determine the impact on cash flows. If the Company determines that a given position will be subject to a write-down, loss or decline in yield, the Company records the expected credit loss as a charge to earnings. In addition, the Company estimates the expected loss by taking into account observed performance of the underlying securities, industry studies, market forecasts, as well as its view of the economic outlook affecting bond collateral.

Note 6 – Commitments and Contingencies

The subsidiary banks are party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of their customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit, lines of credit and standby letters of credit. These instruments involve elements of credit risk in excess of amounts recognized in the accompanying financial statements.

The banks’ risk of loss with the unfunded loans and lines of credit or standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of these instruments. The banks use the same credit policies in making commitments under such instruments as they do for on-balance sheet instruments. The amount of collateral obtained, if any, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the borrower. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. Credit card commitments are unsecured. At March 31, 2010, outstanding financial instruments whose contract amounts represent credit risk were approximately:

Note 7 – Fair Value Disclosures

Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 does not require any new fair value measurements, but clarifies and standardizes some divergent practices that have emerged since prior guidance was issued. ASC 820 creates a three-level hierarchy under which individual fair value estimates are to be ranked based on the relative reliability of the inputs used in the valuation.

ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which those assets or liabilities are sold and considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing those assets or liabilities. Fair values determined using Level 1 inputs rely on active and observable markets to price identical assets or liabilities. In situations where identical assets and liabilities are not traded in active markets, fair values may be determined based on Level 2 inputs, which exist when observable data exists for similar assets and liabilities. Fair values for assets and liabilities for which identical or similar assets and liabilities are not actively traded in observable markets are based on Level 3 inputs, which are considered to be unobservable.

Among the Company’s assets and liabilities, investment securities available for sale are reported at their fair values on a recurring basis. Certain other assets are adjusted to their fair value on a nonrecurring basis, including loans held for sale, which are carried at the lower of cost or market; loan servicing rights, where fair value is determined using similar assets with similar characteristics, when available, or based upon discounted cash flows using market-based assumptions; foreclosed real estate, which is carried at lower of cost or fair market value and goodwill, which is periodically tested for impairment. Deposits, short-term borrowings and long-term obligations are not reported at fair value.

Prices for US Treasury and government agency securities are readily available in the active markets in which those securities are traded, and the resulting fair values are shown in the ‘Level 1 input’ column. Prices for mortgage-backed securities and for state, county and municipal securities are obtained for similar securities, and the resulting fair values are shown in the ‘Level 2 input’ column. Prices for all other non-marketable investments are determined based on various assumptions that are not observable. The fair values for these investment securities are shown in the ‘Level 3 input’ column. Non-marketable investment securities, which are carried at their purchase price, include those that may only be redeemed by the issuer. The changes in securities between level 1 and level 2 were related to the purchase and sale of several securities.

The Company does not record loans at fair value on a recurring basis. However, from time to time, a loan is considered impaired and an allowance for loan losses is established. Loans for which it is probable that payment of interest and principal will not be made in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement are considered impaired. Once a loan is identified as individually impaired, management measures impairment in accordance with ASC 310, Receivables, Loan and Debt Securities. The fair value of impaired loans is estimated using one of several methods, including collateral value, market value of similar debt, enterprise value, liquidation value and discounted cash flows. Those impaired loans not requiring an allowance represent loans for which the fair value of the expected repayments or collateral exceed the recorded investments in such loans. At March 31, 2010, substantially all of the total impaired loans were evaluated based on the fair value of the collateral. When the fair value of the collateral is based on an observable market price or a current appraised value, the Company records the impaired loan as nonrecurring Level 2. When an appraised value is not available or

Table of Contents

management determines the fair value of the collateral is further impaired below the appraised value and there is no observable market price, the Company records the impaired loan as nonrecurring Level 3.

Foreclosed assets are adjusted to fair value upon transfer of the loans to other real estate owned. Real estate acquired in settlement of loans is recorded initially at estimated fair value of the property less estimated selling costs at the date of foreclosure. The initial recorded value may be subsequently reduced by additional allowances, which are charged to earnings if the estimated fair value of the property less estimated selling costs declines below the initial recorded value. Fair value is based upon independent market prices, appraised values of the collateral or management’s estimation of the value of the collateral. When the fair value of the collateral is based on an observable market price or a current appraised value, the Company records the foreclosed asset as nonrecurring Level 2. When an appraised value is not available or management determines the fair value of the collateral is further impaired below the appraised value and there is no observable market price, the Company records the foreclosed asset as nonrecurring Level 3.

The Company may be required, from time to time, to measure certain assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. These include assets that are measured at the lower of cost or market that were recognized at fair value below cost at the end of the period.

Note 8 – Fair Values of Financial Instruments and Interest Rate Risk

ASC 825, “Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments,” requires disclosure of the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities, including those that are not measured and reported at fair value on a recurring basis or non-recurring basis.

The fair value estimates presented at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, are based on relevant market information and information about the financial instruments. Fair value estimates are intended to represent the price an asset could be sold at or the price a liability could be settled for. However, given there is no active market or observable market transactions for many of the Company’s financial instruments, the Company has made estimates of many of these fair values which are subjective in nature, involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimated values. The estimated fair values disclosed in the following table do not represent market values of all assets and liabilities of the Company and should not be interpreted to represent the underlying value of the Company. The following table reflects a comparison of carrying amounts and the estimated fair value of the financial instruments as of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009:

The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents and accrued interest approximate their fair values due to the short period of time until their expected realization. Securities available for sale are carried at fair value based on quoted market prices. The carrying amount of bank-owned life insurance is the current cash surrender value. It is not practicable to determine fair value of Federal Home Loan Bank and Federal Reserve Bank stock due to restrictions placed on its transferability and it is presented at its carrying value.

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating the fair value of financial instruments:

 

   

Loans – The fair value of loans is estimated based on discounted expected cash flows using the current interest rates at which similar loans would be made. Loans held for sale, which represent current mortgage production forward sales not yet delivered, are valued based on current market prices. The fair value of loans does not consider the lack of liquidity and uncertainty in the market that would effect the valuation.

 

   

Deposits – The fair value of checking, savings and money market deposits is deemed equal to the amount payable on demand. The fair value of certificates of deposit is estimated based on discounted cash flow analyses using offered market rates. The fair value of deposits does not consider any customer related intangibles.

 

   

Borrowings – The fair value disclosed for short-term borrowings, which are composed of overnight borrowings and debt due within one year approximate the carrying value for such debt. The estimated fair value for long-term borrowings are estimated based on discounted cash flow analyses using offered market rates.

At March 31, 2010, the subsidiary banks had outstanding standby letters of credit and commitments to extend credit. These off-balance sheet financial instruments are generally exercisable at the market rate prevailing at the date the underlying transaction will be completed; therefore, they were deemed to have no current fair value. See Note 6.

Note 9 – Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-16, an update to ASC 860-10, “Transfers and Servicing,” and ASU 2009-17, an update to ASC 810-10, “Consolidation.” These updates are effective for the first interim reporting period of 2010. The update to ASC 860-10 amends the guidance to eliminate the concept of a QSPE and changes some of the requirements for derecognizing financial assets. The amendments to ASC 810-10: (a) eliminate the exemption for existing QSPEs from U.S. GAAP, (b) shift the determination of which enterprise should consolidate a VIE to a current control approach, such that an entity that has both the power to make decisions and right to receive benefits or absorb losses that could potentially be significant to the VIE will consolidate a VIE, and (c) change when it is necessary to reassess who should consolidate a VIE.

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-06, an update to ASC 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements.” This update adds a new requirement to disclose transfers in and out of level 1 and level 2, along with the reasons for the transfers, and requires a gross presentation of purchases and sales of level 3 activities. Additionally, the update clarifies that entities provide fair value measurement disclosures for each class of assets and liabilities and that entities provide enhanced disclosures around level 2 valuation techniques and inputs. The Company adopted the disclosure requirements for level 1 and level 2 transfers and the expanded fair value measurement and valuation disclosures effective January 1, 2010. The disclosure requirements for level 3 activities are effective for the Company on January 1, 2011. The adoption of the disclosure requirements for level 1 and level 2 transfers and the expanded qualitative disclosures, had no impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and EPS. The Company does not expect the adoption of the level 3 disclosure requirements to have an impact on its financial position, results of operations, and EPS.

In February 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-09, an update to ASC 855-10, “Subsequent Events.” This update amends the guidance to remove the requirement for SEC filers to disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. SEC filers must continue to evaluate subsequent events through the date the financial statements are issued. The amendment was effective and has been adopted by the Company upon issuance.

From time to time the FASB issues exposure drafts of proposed statements of financial accounting standards. Such exposure drafts are subject to comment from the public, to revisions by the FASB and to final issuance by the FASB as statements of financial accounting standards. Management considers the effect of the proposed statements on the consolidated financial statements of the Company and monitors the status of changes to and proposed effective dates of exposure drafts.

Item 2 - Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may contain certain forward-looking statements consisting of estimates with respect to the financial condition, results of operations and business of the Company that are subject to various factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from these estimates. These factors include, but are not limited to, general economic conditions, changes in interest rates, deposit flows, loan demand, real estate values, and competition; changes in accounting principles, policies, or guidelines; changes in legislation or regulation; and other economic, competitive, governmental, regulatory, and technological factors affecting the Company’s operations, pricing, products and services. Any use of “we” or “our” in the following discussion refers to the Company.

Comparison of Financial Condition at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009.

During the three months ended March 31, 2010, the Company’s total assets increased $8.5 million, from $477.8 million to $486.3 million. During the same period, loans held for investment also increased $8.8 million to $362.5 million.

Cash and cash equivalents decreased $545,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2010. Cash and due from banks decreased $1.4 million, while interest-earning deposits with banks increased $879,000.

Investment securities increased $1.0 million to $77.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010. At December 31, 2009 the Company owned $7.5 million in private label CMOs. With the continued erosion in the underlying collateral, management made the decision to sell the entire private label CMO portfolio during the first quarter of 2010 resulting in a realized loss of $107,000. This loss was offset in part by a realized gain on a called state and political subdivision security of $9,000. On March 31, 2010, the Company had net unrealized gains of $1.9 million. During the period, the Company purchased $13.1 million in new securities.

Loans held for investment increased from $353.7 million to $362.5 million. The Company experienced positive growth trends in all areas of its loan portfolio. Real estate construction experienced the largest growth increasing 9.7% or $4.4 million. Loans held for sale decreased 44.5% or $1.2 million during the period. The allowance for loan losses was $5.4 million at March 31, 2010, which represents 1.49% of the loan portfolio.

Other changes in our consolidated assets are related to premises and equipment, interest receivable, Federal Home Loan Bank stock, bank owned life insurance, other real estate owned, prepaid assets and other assets. Premises and equipment, interest receivable, bank owned life insurance and other real estate owned increased $239,000, $9,000, $48,000 and $475,000, respectively. Prepaid assets declined $11,000. Federal Home Loan Bank stock increased $20,000 because member institutions are required to increase their ownership as they increase their utilization of FHLB borrowings.

Customer deposits, our primary funding source, experienced a $3.5 million increase during the three months ended March 31, 2010, increasing from $376.8 million to $380.3 million. Demand noninterest bearing checking increased $1.3 million, while interest checking and money market accounts increased $1.4 million for the period. Savings deposits grew $1.2 million. Time deposits over $100,000 experienced positive growth of $3.3 million attributed to an increase in public funds. Other time deposits declined $3.7 million during the first quarter of 2010. Of this amount, approximately $1.0 million moved from time deposits to interest checking and money market accounts during the period.

Table of Contents

Total borrowings increased $4.9 million for the period which consist of both short-term and long-term borrowed funds primarily from the Federal Home Loan Bank. At March 31, 2010, $40.0 million of the total borrowings of $58.5 million were comprised of Federal Home Loan Bank advances.

Other liabilities decreased from $3.1 million at December 31, 2009 to $2.6 million at March 31, 2010, a decrease of 499,000.

At March 31, 2010, total shareholders’ equity was $44.6 million, an increase of $587,000 from December 31, 2009. Net income for the period was $539,000. Unrealized gains on investment securities, net of tax improved $164,000. These increases were offset as the Company also recorded $136,000 in dividends on the series A and B preferred stock for the three months period. At March 31, 2010, the Company and its subsidiary banks exceeded all applicable regulatory capital requirements.

Comparison of Results of Operations For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2010 and 2009.

Net Income and Net Income Available to Common Shareholders

Uwharrie Capital Corp reported net income of $539,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2010, as compared to $905,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2009, a decrease of $366,000. Net income available to common shareholders was $378,000 or $0.05 per common share at March 31, 2010, compared at $743,000 or $0.10 per common share at March 31, 2009. Net income available to common shareholders is net income less any dividends on preferred stock related to the $10.0 million of capital received from the United States Department of the Treasury under the Capital Purchase Program in December 2008.

Net Interest Income

As with most financial institutions, the primary component of earnings for our banks, is net interest income. Net interest income is the difference between interest income, principally from loan and investment securities portfolios, and interest expense, principally on customer deposits and borrowings. Changes in net interest income result from changes in volume, spread and margin. For this purpose, volume refers to the average dollar level of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, spread refers to the difference between the average yield on interest-earning assets and the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities, and margin refers to net interest income divided by average interest-earning assets. Margin is influenced by the level and relative mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, as well as by levels of noninterest-bearing liabilities and capital.

Net interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2010 was $4.6 million as compared with $4.3 million during the quarter ending March 31, 2009, resulting in an increase of $280,000, or 6.5%. During the quarter ending March 31, 2010 our growth in the volume of interest-earning assets outpaced the growth in interest-bearing liabilities by $58,000. The average yield on our interest–earning assets decreased 36 basis points to 5.70%, while the average rate we paid for our interest-bearing liabilities decreased 67 basis points. The Company’s assets that are interest rate sensitive adjust at the time the Federal Reserve adjusts interest rates, while interest-bearing time deposits adjust at the time of maturity. The aforementioned decreases resulted in an increase of 32 basis points in our interest rate spread, from 3.81% in 2009 to 4.13% in 2010. Our net interest margin was 4.31% and 4.10% for the comparable periods in 2010 and 2009 respectively.

Provision and Allowance for Loan Losses

The provision for loan losses was $213,000 for the three months ending March 31, 2010 compared to $372,000 for the same period in 2009. There were net loan charge-offs of $88,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 as compared with net loan charge-offs of $160,000 during the same period of 2009. Refer to the Asset Quality discussion on page 22 for further information.

Noninterest Income

The Company generates most of its revenue from net interest income; however, like all financial institutions, diversification of our earnings base is of major importance in our long term success. Total noninterest income decreased $726,000 for the three month period ending March 31, 2010 as compared to the same period in 2009. Income from mortgage loan sales decreased $1.1 million from $1.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2009 to $346,000 for the same period in 2010. The decline in interest rates late in 2008 and during first quarter of 2009 lead to a wave of mortgage refinancing, as customers were able to refinance again at a lower rate. The volume of refinanced loans was much lower in the first quarter of 2010. Service charges on deposit accounts produced earnings of $566,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2010. Other service fees and commissions experienced a 45.6% increase for the comparable three month period. This is due in part to a reduction in the write-down of servicing assets due to the refinanced mortgage loans. Income generated from brokerage commissions and asset management fees increased $56,000. The Company realized losses on the sale of investments in the amount of $98,000 in the first quarter of 2010, as compared to $40,000 for the same period in 2009. The investment the Company had in Silverton Bank stock that was a nonmarketable security was written off as of March 31, 2009.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense for the quarter ended March 31, 2010 was $5.2 million compared to $4.9 million for the same period of 2009, an increase of $293,000. Salaries and employee benefits, the largest component of noninterest expense, decreased $45,000 to $2.9 million for the quarter ending March 31, 2010. Net occupancy expense and equipment expense had a combined increase of $22,000. Professional fees and services increased $170,000, primarily related to an increase in legal fees, attributed to loan collections, FDIC assessment costs increased $106,000 due to an increase in the assessment rate charged by FDIC to all FDIC-insured financial institutions. Other noninterest expense increased $9,000 for the comparable three month periods. The table below reflects the composition of other noninterest expense.

Income Tax Expense

The Company had income tax expense of $241,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 resulting in an effective tax rate of 30.9% compared to income tax expense of $455,000 and an effective rate of 33.5% in the 2009 period. Income taxes computed at the statutory rate are reduced primarily by the eligible amount of interest earned on state and municipal securities, tax free municipal loans and income earned on bank owned life insurance. The decrease in the effective tax rate resulted primarily from the increase in the level of such tax free income as a percentage of income before income taxes in the current year quarter compared to the 2009 quarter.

Asset Quality

The Company’s allowance for loan losses is established through charges to earnings in the form of a provision for loan losses. The allowance is increased by provisions charged to operations and by recoveries of amounts previously charged off, and reduced by loans charged off. Management evaluates the adequacy of the allowance quarterly. In evaluating the adequacy of the allowance, management considers the following: the growth, composition and industry diversification of the portfolio; historical loan loss experience; current delinquency levels; adverse situations that may affect a borrower’s ability to repay; estimated value of any underlying collateral; prevailing economic conditions and other relevant factors. The Company’s credit administration function, through a review process, validates the accuracy of the initial risk grade assessment. In addition, as a given loan’s credit quality improves or deteriorates, the credit administration department has the responsibility to change the borrower’s risk grade accordingly. For loans determined to be impaired, the allowance is based either on discounted cash flows using the loan’s initial effective interest rate or on the fair value of the collateral for certain collateral dependent loans. This evaluation is inherently subjective, as it requires material estimates, including the amounts and timing of future cash flows expected to be received on impaired loans, which may be susceptible to significant change. In addition,

 

-22-


Table of Contents

regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the allowance for loan losses and may require additions for estimated losses based upon judgments different from those of management.

Management uses a risk-grading program to facilitate the evaluation of probable inherent loan losses and the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. In this program, risk grades are initially assigned by loan officers and reviewed and monitored by credit administration. The Company strives to maintain its loan portfolio in accordance with conservative loan underwriting policies that result in loans specifically tailored to the needs of its market area. Every effort is made to identify and minimize the credit risks associated with such lending strategies. The Company has no foreign loans and does not engage in significant lease financing or highly leveraged transactions. The Company follows a loan review program designed to evaluate the credit risk in the loan portfolio. This process includes the maintenance of an internally classified watch list that is designed to help management assess the overall quality of the loan portfolio and the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. In establishing the appropriate classification for specific assets, management considers, among other factors, the estimated value of the underlying collateral, the borrower’s ability to repay, the borrower’s payment history and the current delinquent status. As a result of this process, certain loans are categorized as substandard, doubtful or loss and reserves are allocated based on management’s judgment and historical experience.

The allowance for loan losses represents management’s best estimate of an appropriate amount to provide for inherent risk in the loan portfolio in the normal course of business. While management believes that it uses the best information available to establish the allowance for loan losses, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary and results of operations could be adversely affected if circumstances differ from the assumptions used in making the determinations. Furthermore, while management believes it has established the allowance for loan losses in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, there can be no assurance that regulators, in reviewing the Company’s portfolio, will not require an adjustment to the allowance for loan losses. In addition, because future events affecting borrowers and collateral cannot be predicted with certainty, there can be no assurance that the existing allowance for loan losses is adequate or that increases will not be necessary, should the quality of any loans deteriorate as a result of the factors discussed herein. Any material increase in the allowance for loan losses may adversely affect the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

The provision for loan losses was $213,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 as compared to $372,000 for the same period in 2009. During the first three months of 2010 the levels of our impaired loans, which includes all loans in nonaccrual status and other loans deemed by management to be impaired, were $33.9 million compared to $24.1 million at December 31, 2009, an increase of $9.8 million. The increase in the level of impaired loans resulted from five customer relationships totaling $9.3 million that are included in impaired loans. These relationships are deemed impaired from a cashflow standpoint, however, they are more than adequately collateralized. At this time the collateral appears to be the primary source for the repayment. Total nonaccrual loans, which are a component of impaired loans, decreased from $8.2 million at December 31, 2009 to $5.6 million at March 31, 2010. The Company had net loan charge-offs in the first quarter of 2010 of $88,000 compared to net loan charge-offs of $160,000 for the same period in 2009.

The allowance expressed as a percentage of gross loans held for investment was 1.49% at both December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2010. The allowance, as a percentage of total impaired loans, increased from 49.5% at December 31, 2009 to 55.9% at March 31, 2010, while the portion of the allowance specifically allocable to impaired loans decreased from 10.8% at December 31, 2009 to 8.9% at March 31, 2010. Nonperforming loans, which consist solely of nonaccrual loans, to total loans increased from 1.59% at December 31, 2009, to 2.25% at

March 31, 2010. During the quarter the Company had an increase in other real estate owned of $475,000. Even in these difficult economic times, management believes the current level of allowance for loan losses to be adequate at this time.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The objective of the Company’s liquidity management policy is to ensure the availability of sufficient cash flows to meet all financial commitments and to capitalize on any opportunities for expansion. Liquidity management addresses the ability to meet deposit withdrawals on demand or at contractual maturity, to repay borrowings as they mature and to fund new loans and investments as opportunities arise.

The Company’s primary sources of internally generated funds are principal and interest payments on loans, cash flows generated from operations and cash flow generated by investments. Growth in deposits is typically the primary source of funds for loan growth. The Company and its subsidiary banks have multiple funding sources in addition to deposits that can be used to increase liquidity and provide additional financial flexibility. These sources are the subsidiary banks’ established federal funds lines with correspondent banks aggregating $18.8 million at March 31, 2010, with available credit of $18.8 million, established borrowing relationships with the Federal Home Loan Bank, with available credit of $34.5 million, access to borrowings from the Federal Reserve Bank discount window, with available credit of $18.6 million and the issuance of commercial paper. The Company has also secured long-term debt from other sources. Total debt from these sources aggregated $58.5 million at March 31, 2010, compared to $53.6 million at December 31, 2009.

Banks and bank holding companies, as regulated institutions, must meet required levels of capital. The Federal Reserve, the primary federal regulator of the Company and its subsidiary

banks, has adopted minimum capital regulations or guidelines that categorize components and the level of risk associated with various types of assets.

Regulatory guidelines require a minimum of total capital to risk-adjusted assets ratio of 8 percent and a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 4 percent. Banks, which meet or exceed a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 6 percent, a total risked-based capital ratio of 10 percent and a leverage ratio of 5 percent are considered “well capitalized” by regulatory standards. Financial institutions are expected to maintain a level of capital commensurate with the risk profile assigned to their assets in accordance with those guidelines.

The Company and its subsidiary banks have each maintained capital levels exceeding minimum levels for “well capitalized” banks and bank holding companies. The Company expects to continue to exceed minimum capital requirements without altering current operations or strategy. The Company completed a private placement of subordinated debt during 2008 that qualifies as regulatory capital. This subordinated debt has a seven year maturity. The first two years the entire amount is included in regulatory capital and then is reduced by 20 percent a year until its maturity. At March 31, 2010, the Company had $7.4 million in subordinated debt and $10.0 million in preferred stock issued to the United States Department of the Treasury.

Accounting and Regulatory Matters

Management is not aware of any known trends, events, uncertainties or current recommendations by regulatory authorities that will have or that are reasonably likely to have a material effect on the Company’s liquidity, capital resources, or other operations.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

The Company’s primary market risk is interest rate risk. Interest rate risk is the result of differing maturities or repricing intervals of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and the fact that rates on these financial instruments do not change uniformly. These conditions may impact the earnings generated by the Company’s interest earning assets or the cost of its interest-bearing liabilities, thus directly impacting the Company’s overall earnings. The Company’s management actively monitors and manages interest rate risk. One way this is accomplished is through the development of and adherence to the Company’s asset/liability policy. This policy sets forth management’s strategy for matching the risk characteristics of the Company’s interest-earning assets and liabilities so as to mitigate the effect of changes in the rate environment. In management’s opinion, the Company’s market risk profile has not changed significantly since December 31, 2009.

Item 4T. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

At the end of the period covered by this report, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Securities Exchange Act (“Exchange Act”) Rule 13a-15.

Based upon that evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that in their opinion, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective (1) to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports filed or submitted by it under the Exchange Act was recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and

forms, and (2) to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in such reports is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Management of the Company has evaluated, with the participation of the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a -15(f) and 15d – 15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the first quarter of 2010. In connection with such evaluation, the Company has determined that there were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. The Company reviews its disclosure controls and procedures, which may include its internal control over financial reporting, on an ongoing basis, and may from time to time make changes aimed at enhancing their effectiveness and to ensuring that the Company’s systems evolve with its business.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

Trades of the Company’s stock occur in the Over-the-Counter marketplace from time to time. The Company also has in place a Stock Repurchase Plan that provides liquidity to its shareholders in the event a willing buyer is not available to purchase shares that are offered for sale. The Company is under no obligation to purchase shares offered; however, it will accommodate such offers as its Stock Repurchase Plan allows. This plan was initially adopted in 1995 and is approved annually by resolution of the Board of Directors or the Executive Committee of the Board.

Pursuant to the terms of the United States Department of the Treasury’s investment in the Company’s preferred stock under the Capital Purchase Program (“CPP”), the Company must obtain the prior consent of the United States Department of the Treasury to repurchase its common stock under the Stock Purchase Plan or otherwise or to pay a cash dividend.
