NEWS RELEASE

For Immediate Release Thursday, January 17, 2008

Blue Valley Ban Corp. Reports Annual and Fourth Quarter 2007 Earnings

Overland Park, Kansas, January 18, 2008 – Blue Valley Ban Corp. (OTCBB: BVBC) (“the Company”) today announced net income of $4.5 million or fully-diluted earnings per share of $1.84 per share for the year ended December 31, 2007, compared to net income of $6.9 million or $2.88 per share for the same period in 2006. Net income for the fourth quarter of 2007 was $678,000, or fully-diluted earnings per share of $0.28, compared to $2.1 million, or $0.87 per share for the same period in 2006.

“2007 has been a challenging year for the Company due to the interest rate environment and the industry wide decline in the real estate market. This has resulted in a decrease in the Company’s net interest income and an increase in provision for loan losses as compared to the prior year. However, our average earning assets increased during 2007 primarily due to internal loan growth and the acquisition of Unison Bancorp, and its subsidiary, Western National Bank. We look for continued growth in 2008 and an increase in our net interest income. We feel that in 2008 mortgage origination will stabilize and reflect improvement in the 2^nd half of the year. We expect 2008 to be a year of opportunities for the Company as we look to expand our loan and deposit portfolios, and improve our overall financial performance.” said Robert D. Regnier, Chairman and CEO of Blue Valley Ban Corp.

During December 2007, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a $0.36 per share cash dividend on the Company’s common stock. The dividend will be paid on January 31, 2008 to shareholders of record as of December 31, 2007.

Operating Results

For the twelve-month period ending December 31, 2007, net interest income decreased 4.43% to $26.6 million compared to $27.9 million for the same period in the prior year, primarily due to lower net interest margin resulting from a higher costs on average interest bearing liabilities. Provision for Loan Losses increased to $2.8 million compared to $1.3 million for the same period in the prior year. The increase is primarily attributed to the internal growth within the loan portfolio and a modest decline in the credit quality of the real estate and construction portfolio. Noninterest income decreased 18.93% to $7.2 million during this period from $8.9 million in the prior year. The principal factor driving the decrease in non-interest income was a decrease in Loans Held for Sale Fee Income resulting from lower mortgage origination volume due to the industry wide decline in the housing market. Noninterest expense of $24.2 million remained relatively flat compared to $24.4 million in the prior year period.

For the fourth quarter of 2007, net interest income decreased 10.48% to $6.4 million compared to $7.2 million for the same period in the prior year, primarily due to lower net interest margin resulting from a lower yield on average earning assets and higher costs on average interest bearing liabilities. Provision for Loan Losses increased to $1.9 million compared to $50,000 for the same period in the prior year. The increase is primarily attributed to the internal growth within the loan portfolio and a modest decline in the credit quality of the real estate and construction portfolio. Noninterest income decreased to $1.6 million during this period from $2.3 million in the prior year, a decrease of 30.26% due primarily to a decrease in Loans Held for Sale Fee Income resulting from lower mortgage origination volume due to an industry wide decline in the housing market. Noninterest expense decreased 10.17% to $5.5 million compared to $6.1 million in the prior year period. This decrease in noninterest expense relates primarily to lower compensation costs due to the restructuring of the mortgage division during 2007.

Total assets, loans and deposits at December 31, 2007 were $736.2 million, $596.6 million and $536.4 million, respectively, compared to $692.2 million, $528.5 million and $535.9 million one year earlier, respectively, increases of 6.36%, 12.89% and 0.09%, respectively.
