OHIO VALLEY BANC CORP
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(dollars in thousands, except per share data)
================================================================================

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Ohio
Valley Banc Corp and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, The Ohio Valley Bank
Company, Loan Central, Inc., Ohio Valley Financial Services Agency, LLC. and
Ohio Valley Statutory Trusts I and II, together referred to as the Company. All
material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation.

These interim financial statements are prepared without audit and reflect all
adjustments of a normal recurring nature which, in the opinion of Management,
are necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position of Ohio
Valley Banc Corp. at June 30, 2003, and its results of operations and cash
flows for the periods presented. The accompanying consolidated financial
statements do not purport to contain all the necessary financial disclosures
required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America (US GAAP) that might otherwise be necessary in the circumstances. The
Annual Report for Ohio Valley Banc Corp for the year ended December 31, 2002,
contains consolidated financial statements and related notes which should be
read in conjunction with the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

The accounting and reporting policies followed by the Company conform to US
GAAP. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ
from those estimates. The allowance for loan losses is particularly subject to
change.

Income tax expense is the sum of the current year income tax due or refundable
and the change in deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and
liabilities are the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences
between the carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities, computed
using enacted tax rates. A valuation allowance, if needed, reduces deferred tax
assets to the amount expected to realized.

For consolidated financial statement classification and cash flow reporting
purposes, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, noninterest-bearing
deposits with banks and federal funds sold. Generally, federal funds are
purchased and sold for one-day periods. The Company reports net cash flows for
customer loan transactions, deposit transactions, short-term borrowings and
interest-bearing deposits with other financial institutions.

Earnings per share is computed based on the weighted average shares outstanding
during the period. Weighted average shares outstanding were 3,477,455 and
3,460,731 for the three months ending June 30, 2003 and June 30, 2002,
respectively. Weighted average shares outstanding were 3,473,290 and 3,459,987
for the six months ending June 30, 2003 and June 30, 2002, respectively.

The majority of the Company's income is derived from commercial and retail
lending activities. Management considers the Company to operate in one segment,
banking.

Loans are reported at the principal balance outstanding, net of unearned
interest, deferred loan fees and costs, and an allowance for loan losses.
Interest income on loans is reported on the interest method and includes
amortization of net deferred loan fees and costs over the loan term. Interest
income on loans is not reported when full loan repayment is in doubt, typically
when the loan is impaired or payments are past due over 90 days. Payments
received on such loans are reported as principal reductions.

================================================================================

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Management believes the process to evaluate the adequacy of the allowance for
loan losses is one of the largest and most important estimates the Company must
determine. To arrive at the total dollars necessary to maintain an allowance
level sufficient to absorb the probable losses at a specific financial statement
date, management has developed policy and procedures it believes is acceptable
to our regulators. In our assessment of the allowance, management has created
procedures to establish and then evaluate the allowance once determined. The
allowance consists of the following components: specific allocation, general
allocation and other estimated general allocation.

To arrive at the amount required for the specific allocation component, the
Company must evaluate loans that are thought to have some potential loss either
in part or whole in the future. To achieve this task, the Company has created a
quarterly report "Watchlist" which lists loans from each loan portfolio that
management deems a potential credit risk. The criteria to be placed in this
report are: past due 60 or more days, nonaccrual and loans management has
determined to be a potential problem loan. These loans are reviewed and analyzed
for potential loss by the Large Loan Review Committee (1). The committee has
established a grading system which evaluates borrowers from 1 (least risk) to 10
(greatest risk) to evaluate the credit risk for each commercial borrower. After
the committee evaluates each relationship listed in the report, a loss factor
may be assessed. These dollars are set aside for the specific allocation
component. This allocation is made up of dollars allocated to the commercial
loan portfolio (79%), to the real estate (14%) and to the consumer (7%). The
total specific allocation, this reporting period, is $1,890.

Note: Impaired loans consist of loans $100,000 or more on nonaccrual status or
non-performing in nature. These loans are individually analyzed and a specific
allocation may be assessed based on expected future credit loss. Collateral
dependent loans will be evaluated to determine a fair value of the collateral
securing the loan. Non-performing and nonaccrual loan balances have decreased
significantly from the previous quarter (39%). This reduction is primarily
attributable to $3,100 which was reclassified to other real estate owned. Any
allocation will be reflected in the specific allocation component. As of June
30, 2003, the total allocation for impaired loans is $550 which is reflected in
the specific allocation.

The second component (general allowance) consists of the total loan portfolio
balances minus loan balances already reviewed (specific allocation). A quarterly
large loan report, is prepared to provide management a "snapshot" of information
on larger-balance loans, which includes: loan grades, collateral values, etc.
This tool allows management to monitor this group of borrowers. Therefore, only
small balance commercial loans and homogeneous loans (consumer and real estate
loans) have not been specifically reviewed to determine minor delinquencies,
current collateral values and present credit risk. The Company will

================================================================================
(1) Large Loan Review Committee consists of the President and Senior Management
with lending capacity. The function of the committee is to review and analyze
large borrowers for credit risk, scrutinize the Watchlist and evaluate the
adequacy of the Allowance for Loan Losses and other credit risk related issues.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

use a loss risk factor (2) to calculate the dollars necessary to absorb losses
for this component. The total general allowance, this reporting period, is
$4,494.

The final component used to complete our allocation calculation is economic risk
for unallocated allowance. Even though the Company evaluates certain loans for
potential loss and uses a loss risk factor on the remaining loan portfolio,
other factors may affect the allowance at any given time. Therefore, there are
five additional areas that management believes can have an impact on collecting
all principal and interest due. These areas are: 1) delinquency trends, 2)
economic risk, 3) non-performing loans; 4) recovery vs charge off and 5)
personnel changes. Each of these areas is given a percentage factor, from a low
of 10% to a high of 30%, determined by the importance of the impact it may have
on the allowance. After evaluating each area, an overall factor of 16% was
determined for this reporting period. To calculate the impact of other economic
conditions on the allowance, the total general allowance is multiplied by this
factor. These dollars are then added to the other two components to provide for
economic conditions in our assessment area (3). The total dollars allocated for
this component is $743.

The adequacy of the allowance may be determined by certain specific and
nonspecific allocations; however, the total allocation is available for any
credit losses that may impact the loan portfolios by unforeseen circumstances.
The Company has determined the estimated adequate allowance as of June 30, 2003
to be approximately $7,341.

In May, 2003, the FASB issued Statement No. 150, "Accounting for Certain
Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity". This
Statement establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures
certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and
equity. It requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is
within its scope as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances). This
Statement is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after
May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim
period beginning after June 15, 2003, except for mandatorily redeemable
financial instruments of nonpublic entities. The adoption of this statement did
not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.


================================================================================
(2) Loss Risk Factor - The Company has implemented a new method to calculate the
allowance necessary to absorb current losses. The new risk factor will reflect
an actual 12 months performance evaluation of credit losses per loan portfolio.
The new factor is achieved by taking the average charge off, per loan portfolio,
for the last 12 consecutive months and dividing it by the average loan balance
for each loan portfolio over the same time period. We believe that by using a 12
months "rolling" average loss risk factor, the estimated allowance will more
accurately reflect current losses.

(3) The Company's assessment area takes in ten counties in two states, Ohio and
West Virginia. Each assessment area has its individual economic conditions;
however, the Company has chosen to average the risk factors for compiling the
economic risk factor.

(dollars in thousands, except per share data)

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations.

INTRODUCTION

The following discussion focuses on the consolidated financial condition of Ohio
Valley Banc Corp at June 30, 2003, compared to December 31, 2002, and the
consolidated results of operations for the quarterly and year-to-date periods
ending June 30, 2003, compared to the same period in 2002. The purpose of this
discussion is to provide the reader a more thorough understanding of the
consolidated financial statements. This discussion should be read in conjunction
with the interim consolidated financial statements and the footnotes included in
this Form 10-Q.

The Registrant is not aware of any trends, events or uncertainties that will
have or are reasonably likely to have a material effect on the liquidity,
capital resources or operations except as discussed herein. Also, the Registrant
is not aware of any current recommendations by regulatory authorities which
would have such effect if implemented.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

The consolidated total assets of Ohio Valley Banc Corp. have increased $2,290 or
..3% during the first half of 2003 to finish at $698,646. The increase in assets
was primarily due to an increase in the Company's cash and cash equivalents,
primarily in federal funds sold which are up $4,975 from year-end 2002. This
increase in cash and cash equivalents was a result of decreases in loans of
$4,492 and investment securities of $290. The Company's total deposits increased
$13,401 which were offset by a decrease in securities sold under agreements to
repurchase ("repurchase agreements") of $7,717 and other borrowed funds of
$6,344.

During the first six months of 2003, total loans were down $4,492 or .8%
impacted by real estate mortgages which declined by $12,633 or 5.6%. The Bank's
emphasis on selling a large portion of its new real estate loan originations to
the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation ("Freddie Mac") continues to be the
primary contributor in 2003 to the decline in new real estate loan volume.
Secondary market sales of these real estate loan originations, which have fixed
rates with fifteen and thirty year terms, have helped minimize the Bank's
exposure to interest rate risk. As a result, the Bank has realized a 20% decline
in its fifteen and thirty year fixed rate real estate loans. Partially
offsetting this decrease in real estate mortgages was an increase in the
Company's commercial loans of $7,972 or 3.9%. This growth came mostly from loan
originations within the primary market areas of Gallia, Jackson, Pike and
Franklin counties in Ohio which accounted for 68% of the total increase. In
addition, approximately 26% of commercial loan originations came from the
growing West Virginia market areas. Furthermore, consumer loans increased by
$750 or .6%.

During the first six months of 2003, investment securities declined $290 or .3%
led by a decline in U.S. government agency securities of $17,173 or 25.7% offset
partially by an increase in mortgage-backed securities of $16,252. The Company's
demand for U.S. government agency securities has primarily been to satisfy
pledging requirements for repurchase agreements. In the first half of 2003, the
Bank's repurchase agreements declined 23%, lowering the need to secure these
balances with agency security investments. The increase in mortgage-backed
securities is anticipated to enhance the Company's investment portfolio with a

================================================================================

11


higher rate of return and a more rapid repayment of principal as compared to
U.S. government agency securities.

During the first six months of 2003, the Company experienced a $901 increase in
net charge offs from the same time period last year consisting primarily of
commercial nonperforming loans. Nonperforming loans decreased to $5,911 at June
30, 2003 compared to $8,060 at December 31, 2002 which lowered the Company's
nonperforming loans to total loans ratio to 1.08% compared to 1.44% for the same
time periods. However, nonperforming assets to total assets increased to 1.36%
at June 30, 2003 from 1.21% at December 31, 2002. This shift in nonperforming
loans and nonperforming assets was in relation to two commercial loans totaling
over $3 million moving from nonaccrual status to other real estate owned, which
is classified within other assets on the Company's balance sheet. This
contributed to the Company's increase in other assets, which were up $3,538 over
year-end 2002. The allowance for loan losses was 1.32% of total loans at June
30, 2003 compared to 1.26% at December 31, 2002. Management has increased the
ratio of allowance to total loans largely due to the recent 12-month average
growth in nonperforming loans that is included in the Company's adequacy of the
allowance for loan losses evaluation. Based on this quarterly evaluation,
management feels that the allowance for loan losses continues to be adequate to
absorb probable losses in the loan portfolio.

Total deposit growth during the first six months of 2003 was primarily in
savings and interest-bearing demand deposits which increased $7,830 or 5.3%.
Contributing to this increase was a $4,200 increase in NOW accounts,
particularly the Company's new Shareholder Gold product, which offers a NOW
account and many banking benefits to Company shareholders. Additionally,
statement savings deposits were up 14.3% over year-end 2002. Also contributing
to total deposit growth was non-interest bearing demand deposits which increased
$4,064 or 6.9%, impacted mostly by the Company's pay-it-safe, official checking
and e-checking products. Furthermore, interest-bearing time deposits increased
$1,507 or .5%. This growth was partially driven by increases in the Company's
brokered CD issues which totaled $2,033 during the first six months of 2003.
Management continues to utilize these deposit sources to supplement deposit
growth when necessary to lengthen maturities while protecting against the
possibility of rising interest rates.

Other borrowed funds are primarily advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank,
which are used to fund loan growth or short-term liquidity needs. Other borrowed
funds are down $6,344 from December 31, 2002. The need to fund interest-earning
asset growth, particularly loans, has declined in the first half of 2003
contributing to this 6.6% decrease in other borrowings. Additionally, repurchase
agreements are down $7,717 or 23.3% from December 31, 2002. This decline was
mostly related to the normal fluctuations of a single account during the first
quarter of 2003.

Total shareholders' equity at June 30, 2003 of $52,451 was up by $2,076 as
compared to the balance of $50,375 on December 31, 2002. Contributing most to
this increase was year-to-date income of $3,032 plus proceeds of $387 from the
issuance of common stock through the dividend reinvestment plan less cash
dividends paid of $1,214, or $.18 per share year-to-date. While cash dividends
represented 40.0% of year-to-date income, dividends net of proceeds from the
dividend reinvestment plan represented 27.3% of year-to-date income.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Ohio Valley Banc Corp's net income was $1,573 for the second quarter and $3,032
for the first six months of 2003, up by 16.3% and 16.4% compared to $1,353 and
$2,605 for the same periods in 2002. Comparing year-to-date June 30, 2003 to
June 30, 2002, return on assets increased from .81% to .89% and return on equity
increased from 11.20% to 11.95%. Second quarter earnings per share was $.45 per
share, up 15.4% over last year's $.39 per share. During the first six months of
2003, earnings per share was $.87 per share, up 16.0% from last year's $.75 per
share. The double-digit growth in net income for the quarter and year-to-date
periods in 2003 was driven by an increase in net interest income combined with a
decline in operating expenses.

The second quarter and year-to-date increases to net interest income of 4.3% and
6.3% were primarily due to the declines in total interest expense of $679 or
13.1% and $1,219 or 11.7% which completely offset the declines in interest
income for the same time periods. Although average earning assets have increased
by $43,200 compared to the first half of 2002, the yield on interest earning
assets has declined by 59 basis points which resulted in the overall decrease to
interest income. However, the Company benefited from a decline in interest
expense which was largely impacted by a 63 basis point decrease in its average
funding costs. The benefits of a low interest rate environment have helped to
minimize the drop in net interest margin for the second quarter of 2003 which
finished at 4.36% as compared to 4.42% for the same time period in 2002, and the
drop in net interest margin for the first half of 2003 which was 4.36% as
compared to 4.40% for the same period in 2002. For additional discussion on the
Company's rate sensitive assets and liabilities, please see Item 3, Quantitative
and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk on page 16.

The increase in net interest income for the second quarter and year-to-date
periods of 2003 were negatively impacted by increases to provision expense of
$433 and $678 for the same periods as compared to 2002. These increases to
provision expense were in large part from the increase in the Company's
nonperforming assets which contributed to a 62% increase in net charge-offs
realized in the first half of 2003 compared to the same period in 2002. The
increase in net charge-offs reduces the amount of nonperforming loans in the
portfolio. This decline in nonperforming loans, along with sound underwriting
policies, have improved the asset quality within the Company's loan portfolio.

Net interest income after provision for the second quarter and year-to-date
periods of 2003 were positively impacted by decreases in net noninterest expense
of $485 or 12.1% and $500 or 6.7% for the same periods as compared to 2002.
Total noninterest income increased $114 or 8.1% for the second quarter and $280
or 10.4% for the first six months in 2003 as compared to the same periods in
2002. Driving this growth was the Bank's secondary market sales of new real
estate loan originations which generated an additional $143 and $331 in
noninterest revenue for the second quarter and year-to-date periods of 2003.
Additional growth in noninterest revenue related to overdraft fees, service
charge income and loan service fees was completely offset by a decrease in loan
insurance commission revenue due to state mandated reductions in insurance
premiums and less opportunities to sell insurance relative to the decrease in
the real estate loan portfolio as well as the minimal growth in the consumer
loan portfolio.

Total noninterest expense decreased $371 or 6.9% and $220 or 2.2% for the second
quarter and year-to-date periods of 2003 as compared to the same periods in
2002. Salaries and employee benefits, the Company's largest noninterest expense,

================================================================================

(continued)

13


grew $185 or 6.9% and $363 or 6.9% for the second quarter and year-to-date
periods of 2003 as compared to the same periods in 2002. This increase was
related to the rising cost of medical insurance and annual merit increases.
Completely offsetting the rise in salaries and employee benefits was the one
time net charge-off of fraudulent check kiting activity during the second
quarter of 2002 with the impact net of recoveries being $454. The remaining
noninterest expense categories were collectively down from 2002.

CAPITAL RESOURCES

All of the capital ratio's exceeded the regulatory minimum guidelines as
identified in the following table:

Company Ratios Regulatory
June 30, 2003 December 31, 2002 Minimum
------------- ----------------- ----------

Tier 1 risk-based capital 10.9% 11.0% 4.00%
Total risk-based capital ratio 12.1% 12.2% 8.00%
Leverage ratio 9.1% 9.2% 4.00%

Cash dividends paid of $1,214 for the first six months of 2003 represents a 6.3%
increase over the cash dividends paid during the same period in 2002. The
increase in cash dividends paid is largely due to the increase in retained
earnings which allowed the Company to increase the dividend rate paid per share.
At June 30, 2003, approximately 76% of the shareholders were enrolled in the
dividend reinvestment plan. As part of the Company's stock repurchase program,
management will continue to utilize reinvested dividends and voluntary cash to
make open market purchases of shares, when available, to be redistributed
through the dividend reinvestment plan.

LIQUIDITY

Liquidity relates to the Bank's ability to meet the cash demands and credit
needs of its customers and is provided by the ability to readily convert assets
to cash and raise funds in the market place. Total cash and cash equivalents,
interest-bearing deposits with banks, held-to-maturity securities maturing
within one year and securities available-for-sale of $104,786 represented 15.0%
of total assets at June 30, 2003. In addition, the Federal Home Loan Bank in
Cincinnati offers advances to the Bank which further enhances the Bank's ability
to meet liquidity demands. At June 30, 2003, the Bank could borrow an additional
$40 million from the Federal Home Loan Bank. The Company experienced an increase
of $3,231 in cash and cash equivalents for the six months ended June 30, 2003.
See the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows on page 4 for further
cash flow information.

CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

The Company maintains a diversified credit portfolio, with real estate loans
comprising the most significant portion. Credit risk is primarily subject to
loans made to businesses and individuals in central and southeastern Ohio as
well as western West Virginia. Management believes this risk to be general in
nature, as there are no material concentrations of loans to any industry or
consumer group. To the extent possible, the Company diversifies its loan
portfolio to limit credit risk by avoiding industry and, when possible,
geographic concentrations.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk.

The Company's goal for interest rate sensitivity management is to maintain a
balance between steady net interest income growth and the risks associated with
interest rate fluctuations. Interest rate risk ("IRR") is the exposure of the
Company's financial condition to adverse movements in interest rates. Accepting
this risk can be an important source of profitability, but excessive levels of
IRR can threaten the Company's earnings and capital.

The Company evaluates IRR through the use of an earnings simulation model to
analyze net interest income sensitivity to changing interest rates. The modeling
process starts with a base case simulation, which assumes a flat interest rate
scenario. The base case scenario is compared to rising and falling interest rate
scenarios assuming a parallel shift in all interest rates. Comparisons of net
interest income and net incom fluctuations from the flat rate scenario
illustrate the risks associated with the projected balance sheet structure.

The Company's ALCO monitors and manages IRR within Board approved policy limits.
The current IRR policy limits anticipated changes in net interest income over a
12 month horizon to plus or minus 10% of the base net interest income assuming a
parallel rate shock of up 100, 200 and 300 basis points and down 100 basis
points. Based on the current interest rate environment, management did not test
interest rates down 200 and 300 basis points.

The following table presents the Company's estimated net interest income
sensitivity:

June 30, 2003 December 31, 2002
Change in Interest Rates Percentage Change in Percentage Change in
in Basis Points Net Interest Income Net Interest Income
- ------------------------ -------------------- --------------------
+300 (.72%) (1.75%)
+200 (.92%) (1.52%)
+100 (.95%) (.92%)
-100 2.98% 2.56%

The Company is well within the policy guidelines established by the Board. The
Company's balance sheet is considered liability sensitive which contributes to
the increase in net interest income in the declining rate scenario and to the
decrease in net interest income in the rising rate scenarios. In a declining
rate environment, the Company further benefits from the interest rate floors on
variable rate commercial and real estate loans. Due to historically low interest
rates, management has been moving closer to being asset sensitive by
implementing various strategies. Management has been targeting variable rate
commercial and residential real estate loans while selling long-term, fixed-rate
residential mortgages upon origination. Furthermore, management has secured
longer-term funding by pricing the Company's certificates of deposits to attract
longer maturities and by extending the maturity structure of wholesale funds
such as Federal Home Loan Bank advances. As compared to December 31, 2002, the
Company has reduced its exposure to net interest income fluctuations due to
interest rate changes.
