         The following table shows the weighted average number of shares used in
computing  earnings per share and the effect on the weighted  average  number of
shares of potential  dilutive common stock.  Potential dilutive common stock has
no effect on income available to common shareholders.  The anti-dilutive effects
of options  covering  69,825  shares of common  stock were not  included  in the
calculation  for September 30, 2000.  There were no  anti-dilutive  effects from
options at September 30, 2001.

Note 6.      Derivative Financial Instruments

         Interest rate swap agreements:

         During May 2000,  the Company  entered  into two  agreements  to assume
         variable  market-indexed  interest  payments in exchange for fixed-rate
         interest payments  (interest rate swaps). The notional principal amount
         of interest  rate swaps  outstanding  was  $8,525,000  at September 30,
         2001. The original term to maturity was 24 months. The weighted-average
         fixed  payment rate was 7.0% at September 30, 2001.  Variable  interest
         payments  received are based on  three-month  LIBOR.  At September  30,
         2001,  the weighted  average rate of variable  market-indexed  interest
         payment  obligations  to the  Company  was  3.23%.  The effect of these
         agreements  was to transform  fixed rate  liabilities  to variable rate
         liabilities.  The net income from these agreements was $153,727 for the
         nine month period ended September 30, 2001,  which is charged to income
         as it accrues.

         The Company's  current credit exposure on swaps is limited to the value
         of  interest  rate swaps that have  become  assets to the  Company.  At
         September  30, 2001,  the fair value of interest rate swaps in an asset
         position was $280,120.


Note 7.      Recent Accounting Pronouncements

         In July 2001,  the  Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board  Issued two
statements - Statement 141, Business  Combinations,  and Statement 142, Goodwill
and Other Intangible  Assets,  which will potentially  impact the accounting for
goodwill and other  intangible  assets.  Statement  141  eliminates  the pooling
method of accounting  for business  combinations  and requires  that  intangible
assets that meet certain  criteria be reported  separately  from  goodwill.  The
Statement also requires negative goodwill arising from a business combination to
be recorded as an extraordinary gain.  Statement 142 eliminates the amortization
of goodwill and other  intangibles  that are  determined  to have an  indefinite
life. The Statement requires, at a minimum, annual impairment tests for goodwill
and other intangible assets that are determined to have an indefinite life.

         Upon  adoption  of these  Statements,  an  organization  is required to
re-evaluate  goodwill  and other  intangible  assets  that arose  from  business
combinations  entered into before July 1, 2001. If the recorded other intangible
assets do not meet the criteria for  recognition,  they should be  classified as
goodwill. Similarly, if there are other intangible assets that meet criteria for
recognition  but were not  separately  recorded  from  goodwill,  they should be
reclassified from goodwill.  An organization also must reassess the useful lives
of intangible assets and adjust the remaining  amortization periods accordingly.
Any negative goodwill must be written-off.

         The standards  generally are required to be  implemented by the Company
in its 2002 financial statements.  The adoption of these standards will not have
a material impact on the financial statements.

Note 8.      Subsequent Event

         On October 19, 2001,  the Board of  Directors  approved the issuance of
$10 million in trust  preferred debt through  participation  by the Company in a
trust  preferred  pool.  Under the terms of the pool,  the trust  preferred debt
would  mature in 30 years and be  non-callable  for the first five years.  After
five years,  the trust  preferred  debt would be callable at each interest reset
date.  The stated  interest  rate,  which  would reset  semi-annually,  would be
variable and tied to six month LIBOR plus approximately 3.75%. Interest payments
on the trust  preferred  debt may be  deferred  for the first  five  years.  The
Company expects to issue the trust preferred debt in late November 2001.

Item 2.      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
             CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Financial Summary

         Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 increased 21.1%
to $3.9 million or $2.18 per diluted share compared to $3.2 million or $1.83 per
diluted share for the first nine months of 2000.  Annualized  returns on average
assets and equity for the nine  months  ended  September  30, 2001 were 1.7% and
17.5%, respectively, compared to 1.7% and 18.2% for the same period in 2000.

         Total assets for Independent Community Bankshares, Inc. (the "Company")
increased to $332.0  million at September 30, 2001 compared to $289.5 million at
December 31, 2000,  representing  an increase of $42.5  million or 14.7%.  Total
loans at September  30, 2001 were $193.0  million,  an increase of $17.2 million
from the December 31, 2000 balance of $175.8 million.  The Company is located in
one of the fastest growing counties and metropolitan areas in the United States.
In  addition,  the  Company  has  increased  its  customer  base as a result  of
increased advertising and consolidation in the banking industry within its local
market.  These  factors have  contributed  to the solid loan and deposit  growth
experienced  over  the  past  year.  The  declining  interest  rate  environment
continued to provide a strong market for mortgage refinancings and, as a result,
loans held for sale  increased  $8.7 million to $10.8  million at September  30,
2001. The investment portfolio increased 20.1% to $97.9 million at September 30,
2001 compared to $81.6 million at December 31, 2000.  Deposits  increased  $33.3
million to $257.9  million at September 30, 2001 from $224.6 million at December
31, 2000.  Growth in the  transactional  accounts and time deposits  account for
$8.8 million and $13.8 million,  respectively,  of the increase during the first
nine  months of 2001.  Securities  sold  under  agreements  to  repurchase  with
commercial  checking accounts  decreased $557,000 from $14.3 million at December
31, 2000 to $13.8 million at September 30, 2001.

         Shareholders'  equity was $30.8  million at September  30,  2001.  This
amount  represents  an increase of 12.8% from the  December  31, 2000 balance of
$27.3 million.  The book value per common share was $17.55 at September 30, 2001
and $15.68 at December 31, 2000.

Net Interest Income

         Net interest  income is the  Company's  primary  source of earnings and
represents the difference between interest and fees earned on earning assets and
the interest  expense paid on deposits and other interest  bearing  liabilities.
Net  interest  income  totaled  $10.1  million for the first nine months of 2001
compared to $9.0  million for the same period in 2000.  The  increase is largely
due to growth in the average  earning assets.  Average earning assets  increased
$45.6  million from $237.0  million at September  30, 2000 to $282.7  million at
September  30,  2001.  During the latter  half of 2000,  the funding mix for the
growth in the earning  assets  changed to more reliance on borrowed money rather
than low cost  deposits  causing a decrease  in the  margin.  The effect of this
change in the funding mix was largely  recognized in the latter half of 2000 and
deposit  growth has largely  funded asset growth during the first nine months of
2001.

Noninterest Income

         Noninterest income consisting of fees from deposit accounts,  fiduciary
activities and mortgage  banking  increased  43.5% to $3.8 million for the first
nine  months  of 2001  compared  to $2.7  million  for the same  period in 2000.
Current  market  conditions  have  spurred a  refinance  boom that has  provided
significant  volume increases in mortgage fees on loans held for sale as well as
enabled the Company to  recognize  gains in its  investment  portfolio.  Service
charges  on deposit  accounts  for the first nine  months



                                       11
<PAGE>

of 2001 totaled  $1.1 million  compared to $886,000 for the same period in 2000,
an  increase  of  20.0%.  The  Company  realized  $312,000  in net  gains on the
investment  portfolio for the nine months ended September 30, 2001.  Commissions
and fees from fiduciary activities were $976,000 for the nine month period ended
September 30, 2001 compared to $1.2 million for the same period in 2000. Fees on
loans held for sale  increased  $553,000 or 116.4% to $1.0  million at September
30, 2001 from the September 30, 2000 balance of $475,000. Other operating income
increased  $314,000 to $451,000  for the nine months  ended  September  30, 2001
compared  to  $137,000  for the same  period  in 2000.  Additional  staff in the
non-deposit  investment  sales area has  contributed  to the  increase  in other
operating income.

Noninterest Expense

         Total noninterest expense includes  employee-related  costs,  occupancy
and equipment  expense and other overhead.  Total  noninterest  expense was $8.5
million for the first nine months of 2001  compared to $7.0 million for the same
period in 2000.  This is a 20.6%  increase from the nine months ended  September
30, 2000 to the nine months ended September 30, 2001. Salary and benefit expense
increased  27.1% from $4.1 million for the nine months ended  September 30, 2000
to $5.2 million for the nine months ended  September  30, 2001.  The Company has
increased its staffing in both the business  development and operations areas to
support the  significant  asset  growth.  Commissions  paid to employees for fee
related  business,  such as  mortgage  originations  and  investment  sales have
increased by $405,000 to $535,000 as a result in the  increase in sales  volume.
Net occupancy  expense of premises  decreased  $2,000 from $874,000 for the nine
months ended  September 30, 2000 to $872,000 for the nine months ended September
30, 2001.

Allowance for Loan Losses

         The  allowance  for loan losses at September  30, 2001 was $2.0 million
compared to $1.7 million at September  30, 2000.  The  provision for loan losses
decreased $100,000 from the September 30, 2000,  $325,000 balance to $225,000 at
September  30,  2001.  The  allowance  for loan  losses was 1.04% of total loans
outstanding  at both September 30, 2001 and September 30, 2000. At September 30,
2001, net loan recoveries  were $1,000.  There were no loans past due 90 days or
more at September  30,  2001.  Non-performing  loans  decreased to .05% of total
loans  outstanding at September 30, 2001 compared to .11% at September 30, 2000.
Management  believes the  allowance  for loan losses is adequate to cover credit
losses inherent in the loan portfolio at September 30, 2001. Loans classified as
loss,  doubtful,  substandard or special mention are adequately reserved for and
are not expected to have a material impact beyond what has been reserved.

Capital Resources

         Shareholders'  equity at September  30, 2001 and September 30, 2000 was
$30.8 million and $25.2 million,  respectively.  Total common shares outstanding
at September 30, 2001 were 1,752,258.

         At September 30, 2001 the Company's tier 1 and total risk-based capital
ratios  were  12.3%  and  13.1%,  respectively,  compared  to 12.7% and 13.6% at
December 31, 2000.  The Company's  leverage ratio was 9.3% at September 30, 2001
compared to 9.7% at December 31, 2000. The Company's capital structure places it
above the regulatory  guidelines,  which affords the Company the  opportunity to
take  advantage  of  business  opportunities  while  ensuring  that  it has  the
resources to protect against risk inherent in its business.
