BUSINESS
GENERAL
FNB Corp. (the "Parent Company") is a bank holding company incorporated
under the laws of the State of North Carolina in 1984. On July 2, 1985, through
an exchange of stock, the Parent Company acquired its wholly-owned bank
subsidiary, First National Bank and Trust Company (the "Bank"), a national
banking association founded in 1907. The Parent Company and the Bank are
collectively referred to as the "Corporation".
The Bank, a full-service commercial bank, currently conducts all of its
operations in Randolph, Montgomery and Chatham counties in North Carolina. Four
offices, including the main office, are located in Asheboro. Additional
community offices are located in Archdale (two offices), Biscoe, Ramseur,
Randleman, Seagrove, Siler City and Trinity. Some of the major services offered
include checking accounts, NOW accounts (including package account versions
that offer a variety of products and services), money market accounts, savings
accounts, certificates of deposit, holiday club accounts, individual retirement
accounts, debit cards, credit cards and loans, both secured and unsecured, for
business, agricultural and personal use. Certain banking services for both
individual and business customers became available over the internet in a test
environment in 1999, subsequently being offered to all customers in February
2000. The Bank also has automated teller machines and is a member of Plus, a
national teller machine network, and Star, a regional network.
On October 16, 1999, the Corporation entered into a definitive merger
agreement to acquire Carolina Fincorp, Inc. ("Carolina Fincorp"), holding
company for Richmond Savings Bank, Inc., SSB ("Richmond Savings"),
headquartered in Rockingham, North Carolina. Under the terms of the agreement,
Carolina Fincorp will be merged with a wholly-owned subsidiary of FNB Corp.
formed for the purposes of effecting the merger, immediately after which, the
subsidiary will be merged into FNB Corp. Following the merger of holding
companies, Richmond Savings will be merged with and into the Bank. The merger
will be accounted for as a pooling-of-interests transaction and is subject to
several conditions, including approval by the shareholders of FNB Corp. and
Carolina Fincorp and approval by applicable regulatory authorities. On March
21, 2000, the shareholders of both FNB Corp. and Carolina Fincorp voted to
approve the merger, leaving certain contractual conditions of the merger
agreement to be satisfied. Upon satisfaction of these conditions, the merger is
anticipated to close early in the second quarter of 2000. To effect the merger,
each share of Carolina Fincorp common stock will be converted into .79 (subject
to possible adjustment) of a share of FNB Corp. common stock. At December 31,
1999, Carolina Fincorp operated five offices through Richmond Savings and had
approximately $120,069,000 in total assets, $102,917,000 in deposits and
$16,138,000 in stockholders' equity.
On June 3, 1997, the Corporation entered into a definitive agreement to
acquire a savings bank in Siler City, North Carolina. On January 28, 1998, as
permitted by the agreement, the Board of Directors of the savings bank
exercised its right to terminate the proposed combination due to the increase
in the market value of FNB Corp. common stock above a specified level. The
Corporation incurred certain costs in connection with the proposed acquisition.
Those costs, which had been initially deferred, amounted to $305,000 and are
included in terminated merger expenses in the consolidated statement of income
for the year ended December 31, 1997.
Prior to March 26, 1999, the Bank's data processing, item capture and
statement rendering operations were outsourced under a service bureau
arrangement. Commencing in the 1998 fourth quarter, the Bank began the process
of converting these operations to an in-house basis. Conversion to the
replacement systems occurred on March 26, 1999. The total capital expenditure
outlay for hardware and software amounted to approximately $1,700,000, of which
approximately one-half was recorded in 1998 and the remainder in 1999. In
addition to capital expenditures for the new system, the Bank incurred certain
expenses in 1998, totaling approximately $302,000, related to deconversion from
the prior arrangement.
In the 1998 fourth quarter, the Bank received regulatory approval for
establishment of a new branch office in Trinity, North Carolina. Construction
of the permanent Trinity facility is expected to be complete in 2001, resulting
in a total capital outlay of approximately $1,000,000, of which approximately
one-third was recorded in 1998 related to the purchase of land. Prior to
completion of the permanent facility, a temporary mobile office, which opened
in August 1999, is being operated at this site.
YEAR 2000 READINESS
As of the date of this report, the Corporation has not experienced any
material effects related to the Year 2000 readiness problem. Although the
Corporation has not been informed of any material risks associated with the
Year 2000 problem from third parties, there can be no assurance that the
Corporation will not be impacted in the future. The Corporation will
continuously monitor its business applications and maintain contact with its
third-party vendors and key business partners to resolve any Year 2000 problems
that may arise in the future.

For additional information on Year 2000 matters, see "Year 2000 Status" in
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations".
COMPETITION
The commercial banking industry within the Bank's marketing area is
extremely competitive. The Bank faces direct competition in Randolph,
Montgomery and Chatham counties from approximately eighteen different financial
institutions, including commercial banks, savings institutions and credit
unions. Although none of these entities is dominant, the Bank considers itself
one of the major financial institutions in the area in terms of total assets
and deposits. Further competition is provided by banks located in adjoining
counties, as well as other types of financial institutions such as insurance
companies, finance companies, pension funds and brokerage houses and other
money funds.
SUPERVISION AND REGULATION
The Parent Company is a bank holding company within the meaning of the
Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the "BHC Act"), and is registered
as such with the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the "Federal
Reserve Board"). A bank holding company is required to file with the Federal
Reserve Board annual reports and other information regarding its business
operations and those of its subsidiaries. It is also subject to examination by
the Federal Reserve Board and is required to obtain Federal Reserve Board
approval prior to acquiring, directly or indirectly, ownership or control of
any voting shares of any bank if, after such acquisition, it would own or
control, directly or indirectly, more than five percent of the voting stock of
such bank, unless it already owns a majority of the voting stock of such bank.
Furthermore, a bank holding company, with limited exceptions, is prohibited
from acquiring direct or indirect ownership or control of more than five
percent of the voting stock of any company which is not a bank or a bank
holding company and must engage only in the business of banking or managing or
controlling banks or furnishing services to or performing services for its
subsidiary banks. One of the exceptions to this prohibition is the ownership of
shares in a company the activities of which the Federal Reserve Board has
determined to be so closely related to banking or managing or controlling banks
as to be a proper incident thereto.
The Federal Reserve Board has determined that certain activities are
closely related to banking, and that bank holding companies may apply to the
Federal Reserve Board for permission to form, retain or acquire an interest in
a company engaging or proposing to engage in these activities. The permitted
nonbanking activities include, without limitation: (1) making, acquiring or
servicing loans or other extensions of credit such as consumer finance, credit
card, mortgage, commercial finance and factoring companies would make; (2)
acting as an investment or financial advisor; (3) leasing real or personal
property or acting as agent, broker, or advisor in leasing such property if the
lease is to serve as the functional equivalent of an extension of credit to the
lessee of the property and certain other conditions are met; (4) providing
bookkeeping or data processing services under certain circumstances; (5) acting
as an insurance agent or broker with respect to insurance that is directly
related to the extension of credit with other financial services; (6) acting as
an underwriter for credit life insurance and credit accident and health
insurance directly related to extensions of credit by the holding company
system; and (7) providing securities brokerage services and related securities
credit activities.
As a national banking association, the Bank is subject to regulatory
supervision, of which regular bank examinations by the Comptroller of the
Currency are a part. The Bank is a member of the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation (the "FDIC") which currently insures the deposits of each member
bank to a maximum of $100,000 per depositor. For this protection, each bank
pays a quarterly statutory assessment and is subject to the rules and
regulations of the FDIC. The Bank is also a member of the Federal Reserve
System and is therefore subject to the applicable provisions of the Federal
Reserve Act, which imposes restrictions on loans by subsidiary banks to a
holding company and its other subsidiaries and on the use of stock or
securities as collateral security for loans by subsidiary banks to any
borrower.
The ability of the Parent Company to pay dividends depends to a large
extent upon the amount of dividends the Bank pays to the Parent Company.
Approval of the Comptroller of the Currency, or his designate, will be required
for any dividend to the Parent Company by the Bank if the total of all
dividends, including any proposed dividend, declared by the Bank in any
calendar year exceeds the total of its net profits for that year combined with
its retained net profits for the preceding two years, less any required
transfers to surplus or a fund for the retirement of any preferred stock.
EFFECT OF GOVERNMENTAL POLICIES
The operations and earnings of the Bank and, therefore, of the Parent
Company are affected by legislative changes and by the policies of various
regulatory agencies. In particular, the Bank is affected by the monetary and
fiscal policies of the Federal Reserve Board. The instruments of monetary
policy used by the Federal Reserve Board include its open market
4
operations in U.S. Government securities, changes in the discount rate on
member bank borrowings, and changes in reserve requirements on member bank
deposits. The actions of the Federal Reserve Board influence the growth of bank
loans, investments and deposits and also affect interest rates charged on loans
or paid on deposits.
EMPLOYEES
As of December 31, 1999, the Parent Company had three officers, all of
whom were also officers of the Bank. On that same date, the Bank had 148
full-time employees and 20 part-time employees. The Bank considers its
relationship with its employees to be excellent. The Bank provides employee
benefit programs, including a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan,
matching retirement/savings (401(k)) plan, group life, health and dental
insurance, paid vacations, sick leave, and health care and life insurance
benefits for retired employees.
PROPERTIES
The main offices of the Bank and the principal executive offices of the
Parent Company are located in an office building at 101 Sunset Avenue,
Asheboro, North Carolina. The premises contain approximately 36,500 square feet
of office space. The Bank also has other community offices in Asheboro (three
offices), Archdale (two offices), Biscoe, Ramseur, Randleman, Seagrove, Siler
City, and Trinity, North Carolina. Except as noted below, all premises are
owned by the Bank in fee. The Randolph Mall office in Asheboro is under a lease
expiring January 31, 2002. The Bush Hill office in Archdale is under a lease
expiring January 31, 2002, with lease renewal options for up to an additional
20-year term. The land on which the Seagrove Office is situated is under a
lease expiring June 30, 2016. At that time, the land is subject to a purchase
option at a fixed price or lease renewal options for up to an additional
30-year term.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The purpose of this discussion and analysis is to assist in the
understanding and evaluation of the financial condition, changes in financial
condition and results of operations of FNB Corp. (the "Parent Company") and its
wholly-owned subsidiary, First National Bank and Trust Company (the "Bank"),
collectively referred to as the "Corporation". This discussion should be read
in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and supplemental
financial information appearing elsewhere in this report.
OVERVIEW
The Corporation earned $4,657,000 in 1999, a 2.1% increase in net income
from 1998. Basic earnings per share increased from $1.25 in 1998 to $1.27 in
1999 and diluted earnings per share increased from $1.20 to $1.23. Total assets
were $396,067,000 at December 31, 1999, up 11.1% from year-end 1998. Loans
amounted to $265,029,000 at December 31, 1999, up 15.4% from the prior year.
Total deposits grew 5.9% to $322,767,000 in 1999.
On October 16, 1999, the Corporation entered into a definitive merger
agreement to acquire Carolina Fincorp, Inc. ("Carolina Fincorp"), holding
company for Richmond Savings Bank, Inc., SSB ("Richmond Savings"),
headquartered in Rockingham, North Carolina. Under the terms of the agreement,
Carolina Fincorp will be merged with a wholly-owned subsidiary of FNB Corp.
formed for the purposes of effecting the merger, immediately after which, the
subsidiary will be merged into FNB Corp. Following the merger of holding
companies, Richmond Savings will be merged with and into the Bank. The merger
will be accounted for as a pooling-of-interests transaction and is subject to
several conditions, including approval by the shareholders of FNB Corp. and
Carolina Fincorp and approval by applicable regulatory authorities. On March
21, 2000, the shareholders of both FNB Corp. and Carolina Fincorp voted to
approve the merger, leaving certain contractual conditions of the merger
agreement to be satisfied. Upon satisfaction of these conditions, the merger is
anticipated to close early in the second quarter of 2000. To effect the merger,
each share of Carolina Fincorp common stock will be converted into .79 (subject
to possible adjustment) of a share of FNB Corp. common stock. At December 31,
1999, Carolina Fincorp operated five offices through Richmond Savings and had
approximately $120,069,000 in total assets, $102,917,000 in deposits and
$16,138,000 in stockholders' equity.
On June 3, 1997, the Corporation entered into a definitive agreement to
acquire a savings bank in Siler City, North Carolina. On January 28, 1998, as
permitted by the agreement, the Board of Directors of the savings bank
exercised its right to terminate the proposed combination due to the increase
in the market value of FNB Corp. common stock above a specified level. The
Corporation incurred certain costs in connection with the proposed acquisition.
Those costs, which had been initially deferred, amounted to $305,000 and are
included in terminated merger expenses in the consolidated statement of income
for the year ended December 31, 1997.
The 1998 operating results were impacted by special fourth quarter charges
of $302,000 relating to a major data processing conversion. Similarly, 1997
operating results were affected by the fourth quarter recognition of $305,000
in terminated merger expenses as discussed above.
EARNINGS REVIEW
The Corporation's net income increased $95,000 in 1999, up 2.1% over 1998.
Earnings were positively impacted in 1999 by increases of $677,000 or 4.6% in
net interest income and $218,000 in noninterest income. These gains were
significantly offset, however, by an increase of $782,000 in noninterest
expense. Special noninterest expense charges, relating to a major data
processing conversion, significantly affected the 1998 fourth quarter operating
results, as noted in the "Overview", and to a lesser extent affected the 1999
operating results, especially in the first quarter.
The Corporation's net income increased $462,000 in 1998, up 11.3% over
1997. Earnings were positively impacted in 1998 by increases of $889,000 or
6.4% in net interest income and $329,000 in noninterest income and by a
$210,000 reduction in the provision for loan losses. These gains were
significantly offset, however, by an increase of $800,000 in noninterest
expense. The effect of special noninterest expense charges in both 1998 and
1997, as discussed in the "Overview", tended to offset on a comparative basis.
Return on average assets, reflecting the effect of a faster rate of growth
in average total assets than in net income, declined from 1.33% in 1998 to
1.25% in 1999. Return on average assets improved in 1998 from 1.30% in 1997.
Similarly, return on average shareholders' equity decreased to 12.99% in 1999
after increasing to 13.52% in 1998 from 13.45% in 1997.
7
NET INTEREST INCOME
Net interest income is the difference between interest income, principally
from loans and investments, and interest expense, principally on customer
deposits. Changes in net interest income result from changes in interest rates
and in the volume, or average dollar level, and mix of earning assets and
interest-bearing liabilities.
Net interest income was $15,497,000 in 1999 compared to $14,820,000 in
1998. The increase of $677,000 or 4.6% resulted primarily from a 8.6% increase
in the level of average earning assets, the effect of which was partially
offset by a decline in the net yield on earning assets, or net interest margin,
from 4.88% in 1998 to 4.70% in 1999. In 1998, there was a $889,000 or 6.4%
increase in net interest income reflecting a 9.0% increase in average earning
assets as partially offset by a decline in the net interest margin from 4.99%
in 1997. On a taxable equivalent basis, the increases in net interest income in
1999 and 1998 were $731,000 and $960,000, respectively, reflecting changes in
the relative mix of taxable and non-taxable earning assets in each year.
Table 1 sets forth for the periods indicated information with respect to
the Corporation's average balances of assets and liabilities, as well as the
total dollar amounts of interest income (taxable equivalent basis) from earning
assets and interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities, resultant rates
earned or paid, net interest income, net interest spread and net yield on
earning assets. Net interest spread refers to the difference between the
average yield on earning assets and the average rate paid on interest-bearing
liabilities. Net yield on earning assets, or net interest margin, refers to net
interest income divided by average earning assets and is influenced by the
level and relative mix of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities.

(1) Interest income and yields related to certain investment securities and
loans exempt from both federal and state income tax or from state income
tax alone are stated on a fully taxable equivalent basis, assuming a 34%
federal tax rate and applicable state tax rate, reduced by the
nondeductible portion of interest expense.
(2) Nonaccrual loans are included in the average loan balance. Loan fees and
the incremental direct costs associated with making loans are deferred and
subsequently recognized over the life of the loan as an adjustment of
interest income.
Changes in the net interest margin and net interest spread tend to
correlate with movements in the prime rate of interest. There are variations,
however, in the degree and timing of rate changes, compared to prime, for the
different types of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities.
The average prime rate of interest has been relatively stable in recent
years, amounting to 7.99%, 8.37% and 8.44% in 1999, 1998 and 1997,
respectively. This general stability has tended to apply to the interest rates
both earned and paid by the Bank. During the last three months of 1998,
however, a significant change occurred in the level of the prime rate when the
Federal Reserve took action on the level of interest rates in response to the
downturn of the economies of certain Asian
9
and Latin American countries and the effects or potential effects of those
downturns on the U.S. economy. In rapid succession, three 25 basis point cuts
were recorded in the prime rate, lowering it from 8.50% to 7.75%. This decrease
in the prime rate has tended to negatively impact the Corporation's net
interest margin and net interest spread. Due to subsequent concern about
inflationary pressures that appeared to be building in the U. S. economy, the
Federal Reserve elected to raise the level of interest rates in the third and
fourth quarters of 1999, resulting in three 25 basis point increases in the
prime rate that raised it from 7.75% to 8.50%, thereby effectively reversing
the rate reductions that occurred in 1998.
In 1999, the net interest spread declined by 11 basis points from 4.13% in
1998 to 4.02% in 1999, reflecting a decrease in the average total yield on
earning assets that was only partially offset by a decrease in the average rate
paid on interest-bearing liabilities, or cost of funds. The yield on earning
assets decreased by 39 basis points from 8.46% in 1998 to 8.07% in 1999, while
the cost of funds decreased by 28 basis points in moving from 4.33% to 4.05%.
In 1998, the 9 basis points decrease in net interest spread resulted from a 10
basis points decrease in the yield on earning assets as partially offset by a 1
basis point decrease in the cost of funds.
The 1999 and 1998 changes in net interest income on a taxable equivalent
basis, as measured by volume and rate variances, are analyzed in Table 2.
Volume refers to the average dollar level of earning assets and
interest-bearing liabilities.

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES
This provision is the charge against earnings to provide an allowance or
reserve for probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio. The amount of each
year's charge is affected by several considerations including management's
evaluation of various risk factors in determining the adequacy of the allowance
(see "Asset Quality"), actual loan loss experience and loan portfolio growth.
In 1999, earnings were negatively impacted by a $15,000 increase in the
provision. In 1998, there was a positive impact from a $210,000 provision
decrease.
10
The allowance for loan losses, as a percentage of loans outstanding,
amounted to 1.04% at December 31, 1999 and 1.10% at December 31, 1998. The
reduction in the allowance percentage reflected changes in the loan portfolio
mix. As discussed in "Loans", the 1-4 family residential mortgage loan
portfolio, which requires a relatively lower level of reserve for loan losses,
significantly increased in 1999. Further, a riskier loan segment, retail
installment loan contracts purchased from automobile and equipment dealers, has
been discontinued.
NONINTEREST INCOME
Noninterest income increased $218,000 or 6.8% in 1999 and $329,000 or
11.4% in 1998, reflecting in part the general increase in the volume of
business. The increase in service charges on deposit accounts in 1999 was
primarily due to the selected increases in service charges that became
effective in the 1999 first quarter. The 1998 increase in service charges on
deposit accounts resulted partially from the implementation for a full year of
the service charge increases that became effective in the 1997 second quarter.
Further, there was increased revenue in 1998 from a NOW account version that
provides a package of products and services for a stated monthly fee as a
result of increases in the number of such accounts and in the stated monthly
fee, the new fee having become effective in the 1997 fourth quarter.
The increase in annuity and brokerage commissions in 1999 related to a
general increase in both sales of annuity products and the volume of brokerage
services, while the opposite was true in 1998 when such commissions declined.
The level of other service charges, commissions and fees was higher in 1999 due
largely to a significantly greater annual commission adjustment in 1999 on
sales of credit life insurance, such adjustment being paid in the first quarter
of each year and based on prior year claims. Other income was lower in 1999 due
mainly to a reduction in gains on loan sales, but the comparison to 1998 was
also impacted by the $39,000 recovery in 1998 of a portion of certain expenses,
initially recorded in the 1997 fourth quarter, related to a terminated merger
agreement with another financial institution (see "Overview"). Other income was
higher in 1998 due largely to increases in gains on loan sales and in fees for
trust services and to the $39,000 recovery of a portion of the terminated
merger expenses.
NONINTEREST EXPENSE
Noninterest expense was $782,000 or 7.1% higher in 1999 due largely to
increased personnel expense, the effect of a major data processing conversion
and the continuing effects of inflation. The level of noninterest expense was
further affected by the opening of a new branch office in August 1999 (see
"Business Development Matters"). Personnel expense was impacted by increased
staffing requirements, especially as related to the data processing conversion,
and by normal salary adjustments. Net occupancy expense was affected by
increased maintenance charges. Furniture and equipment expense increased
largely as a result of the data processing conversion, especially for
depreciation charges. Advertising and marketing expense, included in "other
expense", increased significantly in 1998 above the level of prior years due
primarily to new programs undertaken that included an advertising campaign
based on customer testimonials and a major marketing plan centered around the
"YES YOU CAN, YES WE CAN(R)" program. Significant advertising and marketing
expenditures continued in 1999 for the new marketing plan resulting in a
$13,000 expense increase over 1998.
The major data processing conversion from a service bureau arrangement to
an in-house basis, completed on March 26, 1999 and discussed in "Business
Development Matters", significantly affected operating results for the 1999
first quarter. The cost of data processing services in the 1999 first quarter
was impacted by the higher rate charged by the service bureau on a
month-to-month basis, subsequent to the termination of the prior long-term
agreement in late 1998. Also, personnel expense was negatively affected by the
staffing and training requirements that were preliminary to the implementation
of the new system.
Subsequent to the 1999 first quarter, the total cost related to data
processing operations on an in-house basis compares favorably to the cost that
was being experienced under the service bureau arrangement prior to the start
of the conversion process in the 1998 fourth quarter. Noninterest expense
components are being significantly affected, however, as there is a major
decrease in the direct cost of data processing services, but increases in the
levels of personnel expense and furniture and equipment expense.
Noninterest expense was $800,000 or 7.8% higher in 1998 due in part to
charges of $302,000 relating to the major data processing conversion discussed
above. The remaining net increase of $498,000 was due largely to increased
personnel expense, new advertising and marketing programs and the continuing
effects of inflation. Personnel expense was impacted by increased staffing
requirements and normal salary adjustments. Advertising and marketing expense,
included in "other expense", increased $223,000 due primarily to new programs
discussed above.
11
INCOME TAXES
The effective income tax rate, impacted by a series of scheduled annual
reductions in the state income tax rate, amounted to 29.9% in 1999, 30.3% in
1998 and 30.7% in 1997.
LIQUIDITY
Liquidity refers to the continuing ability of the Bank to meet deposit
withdrawals, fund loan and capital expenditure commitments, maintain reserve
requirements, pay operating expenses and provide funds to the Parent Company
for payment of dividends, debt service and other operational requirements.
Liquidity is immediately available from five major sources: (a) cash on hand
and on deposit at other banks, (b) the outstanding balance of federal funds
sold, (c) lines for the purchase of federal funds from other banks, (d) the
$47,500,000 line of credit established at the Federal Home Loan Bank, less
existing advances against that line, and (e) the available-for-sale securities
portfolio. Further, while available-for-sale securities are intended to be a
source of immediate liquidity, the entire investment securities portfolio is
managed to provide both income and a ready source of liquidity. All debt
securities are of investment grade quality and, if the need arises, can be
promptly liquidated on the open market or pledged as collateral for short-term
borrowing.
Consistent with its approach to liquidity, the Bank as a matter of policy
does not solicit or accept brokered deposits for funding asset growth. Instead,
loans and other assets are based primarily on a core of local deposits and the
Bank's capital position. To date, the steady increase in deposits, retail
repurchase agreements and capital, supplemented by Federal Home Loan Bank
advances, has been adequate to fund loan demand in the Bank's market area,
while maintaining the desired level of immediate liquidity and a substantial
investment securities portfolio available for both immediate and secondary
liquidity purposes.
ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENT AND INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY
One of the primary objectives of asset/liability management is to maximize
net interest margin while minimizing the earnings risk associated with changes
in interest rates. One method used to manage interest rate sensitivity is to
measure, over various time periods, the interest rate sensitivity positions, or
gaps; however, this method addresses only the magnitude of timing differences
and does not address earnings or market value. Therefore, management uses an
earnings simulation model to prepare, on a regular basis, earnings projections
based on a range of interest rate scenarios in order to more accurately measure
interest rate risk.
The Bank's balance sheet was liability-sensitive at December 31, 1999. A
liability-sensitive position means that in gap measurement periods of one year
or less there are more liabilities than assets subject to immediate repricing
as market rates change. Because immediately rate sensitive interest-bearing
liabilities exceed rate sensitive assets, the earnings position could improve
in a declining rate environment and could deteriorate in a rising rate
environment, depending on the correlation of rate changes in these two
categories. Included in interest-bearing liabilities subject to rate changes
within 90 days is a portion of the NOW, savings and money market deposits.
These types of deposits historically have not repriced coincidentally with or
in the same proportion as general market indicators.
Table 3 presents information about the periods in which the
interest-sensitive assets and liabilities at December 31, 1999 will either
mature or be subject to repricing in accordance with market rates, and the
resulting interest-sensitivity gaps. This table shows the sensitivity of the
balance sheet at one point in time and is not necessarily indicative of what
the sensitivity will be on other dates. As a simplifying assumption concerning
repricing behavior, 50% of the NOW, savings and money market deposits are
assumed to reprice immediately and 50% are assumed to reprice beyond one year.

MARKET RISK
Market risk reflects the risk of economic loss resulting from adverse
changes in market price and interest rates. This risk of loss can be reflected
in diminished current market values and/or reduced potential net interest
income in future periods.
The Bank's market risk arises primarily from interest rate risk inherent
in its lending and deposit-taking activities. The structure of the Bank's loan
and deposit portfolios is such that a significant decline in interest rates may
adversely impact net market values and net interest income. The Bank does not
maintain a trading account nor is the Bank subject to currency exchange risk or
commodity price risk. Interest rate risk is monitored as part of the Bank's
asset/liability management function, which is discussed in "Asset/Liability
Management and Interest Rate Sensitivity" above.

(1) The average interest rate related to debt securities is stated on a fully

interest expense.
(2) Debt securities are reported on the basis of amortized cost.
(3) Nonaccrual loans are included in the balance of loans. The allowance for

CAPITAL ADEQUACY
Under guidelines established by the Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve System, capital adequacy is currently measured for regulatory purposes
by certain risk-based capital ratios, supplemented by a leverage capital ratio.
The risk-based capital ratios are determined by expressing allowable capital
amounts, defined in terms of Tier 1, Tier 2 and Tier 3, as a percentage of
risk-weighted assets, which are computed by measuring the relative credit risk
of both the asset categories on the balance sheet and various off-balance sheet
exposures. Tier 1 capital consists primarily of common shareholders' equity and
qualifying perpetual preferred stock, net of goodwill and other disallowed
intangible assets. Tier 2 capital, which is limited to the total of Tier 1
capital, includes allowable amounts of subordinated debt, mandatory convertible
debt, preferred stock and the allowance for loan losses. Tier 3 capital,
applicable only to financial institutions subject to certain market risk
capital guidelines, is capital allocated to support the market risk related to
a financial institution's ongoing trading activities. At December 31, 1999, FNB
Corp. and the Bank were not subject to the market risk capital guidelines and,
accordingly, had no Tier 3 capital allocation. Total capital, for risk-based
purposes, consists of the sum of Tier 1, Tier 2 and Tier 3 capital. Under
current requirements, the minimum total capital ratio is 8.00% and the minimum
Tier 1 capital ratio is 4.00%. At December 31, 1999, FNB Corp. and the Bank had
total capital ratios of 15.05% and 14.48%, respectively, and Tier 1 capital
ratios of 14.03% and 13.46%.
14
The leverage capital ratio, which serves as a minimum capital standard,
considers Tier 1 capital only and is expressed as a percentage of average total
assets for the most recent quarter, after reduction of those assets for
goodwill and other disallowed intangible assets at the measurement date. As
currently required, the minimum leverage capital ratio is 4.00%. At December
31, 1999, FNB Corp. and the Bank had leverage capital ratios of 9.66% and
9.27%, respectively.
The Bank is also required to comply with prompt corrective action
provisions established by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement
Act. To be categorized as well-capitalized, the Bank must have a minimum ratio
for total capital of 10.00%, for Tier 1 capital of 6.00% and for leverage
capital of 5.00%. As noted above, the Bank met all of those ratio requirements
at December 31, 1999 and, accordingly, is well-capitalized under the regulatory
framework for prompt corrective action.
BALANCE SHEET REVIEW
Asset growth was higher in 1999 than in 1998. Total assets increased
$39,444,000 or 11.1% in 1999 compared to $30,968,000 or 9.5% in 1998. Deposits
grew $18,077,000 or 5.9% and $24,142,000 or 8.6%, respectively, in the same
periods. Retail repurchase agreements declined $817,000 in 1999 but increased
in 1998 to fund $4,047,000 of the asset growth in that year. A portion of the
1999 asset growth was funded by initial advances totaling $15,000,000 from the
Federal Home Loan Bank. The average asset growth rates were 8.6% in 1999 and
8.8% in 1998. The corresponding average deposit growth rates were 5.0% and
7.2%.

(1) Yields are stated on a fully taxable equivalent basis, assuming a 34%
federal income tax rate and applicable state income tax rate, reduced by
the nondeductible portion of interest expense.
Additions to the investment securities portfolio depend to a large extent
on the availability of investable funds that are not otherwise needed to
satisfy loan demand. Because the growth in total assets exceeded that for loans
in 1999, the level of investment securities was increased $1,061,000 or 1.0%.
In 1998, when the growth in total assets far exceeded that for loans, there was
a $17,890,000 or 20.6% increase in the level of investment securities.
Investable funds not otherwise utilized are temporarily invested on an
overnight basis as federal funds sold, the level of which is affected by such
considerations as near-term loan demand and liquidity needs. Based on funds
requirements, the Bank was a net purchaser of funds at December 31, 1999.
16
LOANS
The Corporation's primary source of revenue and largest component of
earning assets is the loan portfolio. Loans experienced growth of $35,307,000
or 15.4% in 1999 and $12,271,000 or 5.6% in 1998. Average loans increased
$16,578,000 or 7.4% and $19,845,000 or 9.7%, respectively. The ratio of average
loans to average deposits increased from 76.4% in 1998 to 78.1% in 1999. The
ratio of loans to deposits at December 31, 1999 was 82.1%.
Table 6 sets forth the major categories of loans for each of the last five
years. The maturity distribution and interest sensitivity of selected loan
categories at December 31, 1999 are presented in Table 7.

The commercial and agricultural loan portfolio experienced a very strong
gain during 1999, and the 1-4 family mortgage loan portfolio grew
significantly. Lease financing contracts, a new loan product in 1999, has
further added to the balance of the total loan portfolio. Loan growth and the
composition of the loan portfolio, however, have been affected by management's
decision in March 1996 to discontinue the purchase of retail installment loan
contracts from automobile and equipment dealers (see "Business Development
Matters"). The outstanding balance of these loan contracts, which are primarily
included in consumer loans, experienced net decreases in 1999 and 1998 of
$2,782,000 and $5,929,000, respectively. Consequently, total consumer loans
declined significantly during those periods.
ASSET QUALITY
Management considers the Bank's asset quality to be of primary importance.
A formal loan review function, independent of loan origination, is used to
identify and monitor problem loans. As part of the loan review function, a
third party assessment group is employed to review the underwriting
documentation and risk grading analysis. In determining the allowance for loan
losses and any resulting provision to be charged against earnings, particular
emphasis is placed on the results of the loan review process. Consideration is
also given to historical loan loss experience, the value and adequacy of
collateral, and economic conditions in the Bank's market area. For loans
determined to be impaired, the allowance is based on discounted cash flows
using the loan's initial effective interest rate or 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 that
may be susceptible to significant change. The unallocated
17
portion of the allowance for loan losses represents management's estimate of
the appropriate level of reserve to provide for probable losses inherent in the
loan portfolio. Considerations in determining the unallocated portion of the
allowance for loan losses include general economic and lending trends and other
factors.
Management's policy in regard to past due loans is conservative and
normally requires a prompt charge-off to the allowance for loan losses
following timely collection efforts and a thorough review. Further efforts are
then pursued through various means available. Loans carried in a nonaccrual
status are generally collateralized and the possibility of future losses is
considered in the determination of the allowance for loan losses.
At December 31, 1999, the Bank had impaired loans with three borrowers
which totaled $1,420,000 and were also on nonaccrual status. The related
allowance for loan losses on these loans amounted to $289,000. The payment of
principal and interest on impaired loans with one borrower is guaranteed up to
a specified percentage by an agency of the U. S. Government. Based on the
balances outstanding at December 31, 1999, the guaranteed portion of impaired
loans amounted to $792,000.
Table 8 presents an analysis of the changes in the allowance for loan
losses and of the level of nonperforming assets for each of the last five
years. Information about management's allocation of the allowance for loan
losses by loan category is presented in Table 9.

DEPOSITS
The level and mix of deposits is affected by various factors, including
general economic conditions, the particular circumstances of local markets and
the specific deposit strategies employed. In general, broad interest rate
declines tend to encourage customers to consider alternative investments such
as mutual funds and tax-deferred annuity products, while interest rate
increases tend to have the opposite effect.
The Bank's level and mix of deposits has been specifically affected by the
following factors. The growth in money market accounts of $5,247,000 in 1999
and $6,211,000 in 1998 was due to a high-yield product that has had steady
growth since its introduction in the 1996 fourth quarter. Time deposits of
$100,000 or more accounted for $11,952,000 of total time deposit growth of
$17,089,000 in 1999 and for $7,757,000 of total time deposit growth of
$11,195,000 in 1998. Further, the level of time deposits obtained from
governmental units fluctuates, amounting to $38,529,000, $25,905,000 and
$24,431,000 at December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT MATTERS
As discussed in the "Overview" and Note 18 to Consolidated Financial
Statements, the Corporation has entered into a definitive merger agreement to
acquire Carolina Fincorp, headquartered in Rockingham, North Carolina. Under
the terms of the agreement, Carolina Fincorp will be merged with a wholly-owned
subsidiary of FNB Corp. formed for the purposes of effecting the merger. The
merger is anticipated to close early in the second quarter of 2000.
In 1997, the Corporation entered into a definitive agreement to acquire a
savings bank in Siler City, North Carolina. On January 28, 1998, as permitted
by the agreement, the Board of Directors of the savings bank exercised its
right to terminate the proposed combination due to the increase in the market
value of FNB Corp. common stock above a specified level.
Prior to March 26, 1999, the Bank's data processing, item capture and
statement rendering operations were outsourced under a service bureau
arrangement. Commencing in the 1998 fourth quarter, the Bank began the process
of converting these operations to an in-house basis. Conversion to the
replacement systems occurred on March 26, 1999. The total capital expenditure
outlay for hardware and software amounted to approximately $1,700,000, of which
approximately one-half was recorded in 1998 and the remainder in 1999. In
addition to capital expenditures for the new system, the Bank incurred certain
expenses in 1998, totaling approximately $302,000, related to deconversion from
the prior arrangement.
In the 1998 fourth quarter, the Bank received regulatory approval for
establishment of a new branch office in Trinity, North Carolina. Construction
of the permanent Trinity facility is expected to be complete in 2001, resulting
in a total capital outlay of approximately $1,000,000, of which approximately
one-third was recorded in 1998 related to the purchase of land. Prior to
completion of the permanent facility, a temporary mobile office, which opened
in August 1999, is being operated at this site.
20
Management decided in March 1996 that the Bank would discontinue the
purchase of retail installment loan contracts from automobile and equipment
dealers, due largely to the declining yields being experienced in this loan
program. Contracts of this nature included in loans at December 31, 1999, 1998
and 1997 amounted to $963,000, $3,745,000 and $9,674,000, respectively. While
there will be no purchases of new contracts, current plans call for the
collection of outstanding loans based on their contractual terms. The funds
previously invested in this loan program are being redeployed, as loan payments
occur, to other loan programs or to the investment securities portfolio.
YEAR 2000 STATUS
As of the date of this report, the Corporation has not experienced any
material effects related to the Year 2000 readiness problem. Although the
Corporation has not been informed of any material risks associated with the
Year 2000 problem from third parties, there can be no assurance that the
Corporation will not be impacted in the future. The Corporation will
continuously monitor its business applications and maintain contact with its
third-party vendors and key business partners to resolve any Year 2000 problems
that may arise in the future.
The Corporation's cost of Year 2000 compliance was substantially less than
the original estimate of approximately $200,000. Actual Year 2000 project
expenditures totaled $116,000. Of this total, capital expenditures amounted to
$69,000 and were all recorded in 1998. Project expenses amounted to $47,000 on
a cumulative basis and $32,000 for the year ended December 31, 1999.
ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT MATTERS
In September 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities". SFAS No. 133 establishes
accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including
certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, (collectively
referred to as derivatives) and for hedging activities. It requires that an
entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the
statement of financial position and measure those instruments at fair value. If
certain conditions are met, a derivative may be specifically designated as (a)
a hedge of the exposure to changes in the fair value of a recognized asset or
liability or an unrecognized firm commitment, (b) a hedge of the exposure to
variable cash flows of a forecasted transaction, or (c) a hedge of the foreign
currency exposure of a net investment in a foreign operation. The accounting
for changes in the fair value of a derivative (that is, gains and losses)
depends on the intended use of the derivative and the resulting designation. An
entity that elects to apply hedge accounting is required to establish at the
inception of the hedge the method it will use for assessing the effectiveness
of the hedging derivative and the measurement approach for determining the
ineffective aspect of the hedge. Those methods must be consistent with the
entity's approach to managing risk. SFAS No. 133, as amended by SFAS No. 137,
is effective for all fiscal quarters of all fiscal years beginning after June
15, 2000. At this time, the Corporation has not determined what effect, if any,
that adoption of SFAS No. 133 will have on the consolidated financial
statements.
In October 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 134, "Accounting for
Mortgage-Backed Securities Retained after the Securitization of Mortgage Loans
Held for Sale by a Mortgage Banking Enterprise", which requires that after the
securitization of mortgage loans held for sale, an entity engaged in mortgage
banking activities classify the resulting mortgage-backed securities or other
retained interests based on its ability and intent to sell or hold those
investments. SFAS No. 134 is effective for the first fiscal quarter beginning
after December 31, 1998, with earlier application permitted. As the Corporation
does not have any mortgage-backed securities or other retained interests
resulting from the securitization of mortgage loans held for sale, adoption of
SFAS No. 134 did not have an effect on the consolidated financial statements.
EFFECTS OF INFLATION
The operations of the Bank and therefore of the Corporation are subject to
the effects of inflation through interest rate fluctuations and changes in the
general price level of noninterest operating expenses. Such costs as salaries,
fringe benefits and utilities have tended to increase at a rate comparable to
or even greater than the general rate of inflation. Broadly speaking, all
operating expenses have risen to higher levels as inflationary pressures have
increased. Management has responded to this situation by evaluating and
adjusting fees charged for specific services and by emphasizing operating
efficiencies.
The level of interest rates is also considered to be influenced by
inflation, rising whenever inflationary expectations and the actual level of
inflation increase and declining whenever the inflationary outlook appears to
be improving. Management constantly monitors this situation, attempting to
adjust both rates received on earning assets and rates paid on interest-bearing
liabilities in order to maintain the desired net yield on earning assets.
21
CAUTIONARY STATEMENT FOR PURPOSE OF THE "SAFE HARBOR" PROVISIONS OF THE PRIVATE
SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995
The statements contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K that are not
historical facts are forward-looking statements (as such term is defined in the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995), which can be identified by
the use of forward-looking terminology such as "believes", "expects", "plans",
"projects", "goals", "estimates", "may", "could", "should", or "anticipates" or
the negative thereof or other variations thereon of comparable terminology, or
by discussions of strategy that involve risks and uncertainties. In addition,
from time to time, the Corporation or its representatives have made or may make
forward-looking statements, orally or in writing. Such forward-looking
statements may be included in, but are not limited to, various filings made by
the Corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or press releases
or oral statements made by or with the approval of an authorized executive
officer of the Corporation. Forward-looking statements are based on
management's current views and assumptions and involve risks and uncertainties
that could significantly affect expected results. The Corporation wishes to
caution the reader that factors, such as those listed below, in some cases have
affected and could affect the Corporation's actual results, causing actual
results to differ materially from those in any forward-looking statement. These
factors include: (i) expected cost savings from the proposed merger with
Carolina Fincorp may not materialize, (ii) the Corporation may experience
greater than expected deposit attrition, customer loss, or revenue loss
following completion of the proposed merger, (iii) competitive pressure in the
banking industry or in the Corporation's markets may increase significantly,
(iv) changes in the interest rate environment may reduce margins, (v) general
economic conditions, either nationally or regionally, may be less favorable
than expected, resulting in, among other things, credit quality deterioration,
(vi) changes may occur in banking legislation and in the environment, (vii)
changes may occur in general business conditions and inflation and (viii)
changes may occur in the securities markets.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
FNB CORP.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of FNB Corp.
and subsidiary as of December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the related consolidated
statements of income, shareholders' equity and comprehensive income and cash
flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 1999.
These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the
Corporation's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of FNB Corp.
and subsidiary as of December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period
ended December 31, 1999, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

FNB CORP. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
NATURE OF OPERATIONS/CONSOLIDATION
FNB Corp. is a one-bank holding company whose wholly-owned subsidiary is
the First National Bank and Trust Company (the "Bank"). The Bank is an
independent community bank that offers a complete line of financial services,
including deposit, loan, investment and trust services, to individual and
business customers primarily in the region of North Carolina that includes
Randolph, Montgomery and Chatham counties.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of FNB Corp.
and the Bank (collectively the "Corporation"). All significant intercompany
balances and transactions have been eliminated. The Corporation adopted
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131, "Disclosures about
Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information", in 1998 without any impact
on the consolidated financial statements as the chief operating decision maker
reviews the results of operations of the Corporation and its subsidiary as a
single enterprise.
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles 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 consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include
cash on hand, amounts due from banks, and federal funds sold. Generally,
federal funds are purchased and sold for one-day periods.
INVESTMENT SECURITIES
Investment securities are categorized and accounted for as follows:
o Held-to-maturity securities -- Debt securities that the Corporation has
the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are reported at
amortized cost.
o Trading securities -- Debt and equity securities bought and held
principally for the purpose of being sold in the near future are
reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses included in
earnings.
o Available-for-sale securities -- Debt and equity securities not
classified as either held-to-maturity securities or trading securities
are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of
related tax effect, included as an item of other comprehensive income
and reported as a separate component of shareholders' equity.
The Corporation intends to hold its securities classified as
available-for-sale securities for an indefinite period of time but may sell
them prior to maturity. All other securities, which the Corporation has the
positive intent and ability to hold to maturity, are classified as
held-to-maturity securities.
Interest income on debt securities is adjusted using the level yield
method for the amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. The
adjusted cost of the specific security is used to compute gains or losses on
the disposition of securities.
LOANS
Interest income on loans is generally calculated by using the constant
yield method based on the daily outstanding balance. The recognition of
interest income is discontinued when, in management's opinion, the collection
of all or a portion of interest becomes doubtful.
Loan fees and the incremental direct costs associated with making loans
are deferred and subsequently recognized over the life of the loan as an
adjustment of interest income. Residential mortgage loans held for sale are
valued at the lower of cost or market as determined by outstanding commitments
from investors or current investor yield requirements, calculated on the
aggregate loan basis.
29
FNB CORP. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
NOTE 1 -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES -- (Continued)
ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES
The allowance for loan losses represents an amount considered adequate to
absorb loan losses inherent in the portfolio. Management's evaluation of the
adequacy of the allowance is based on a review of individual loans, historical
loan loss experience, the value and adequacy of collateral, and economic
conditions in the Bank's market area. For loans determined to be impaired, the
allowance is based on discounted cash flows using the loan's initial effective
interest rate or the fair value of the collateral for certain collateral
dependent loans. Losses are charged and recoveries are credited to the
allowance for loan losses. 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 that may be susceptible to
significant change.
In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their
examination process, periodically review the Bank's allowance for loan losses.
Such agencies may require the Bank to recognize changes to the allowance based
on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their
examination.
PREMISES AND EQUIPMENT
Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation
and amortization. Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis over the
estimated useful lives of the assets as follows: buildings and improvements, 10
to 50 years and furniture and equipment, 3 to 10 years. Leasehold improvements
are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the estimated life
of the improvement or the term of the lease.
INTANGIBLE ASSETS
Deposit base premiums, arising from deposit and branch purchase
acquisitions, amounted to $24,000 and $43,000 at December 31, 1999 and 1998,
respectively, and are included in other assets. The premium amounts are
amortized on an accelerated basis over ten-year periods.
INCOME TAXES
Income tax expense includes both a current provision based on the amounts
computed for income tax return purposes and a deferred provision that results
from application of the asset and liability method of accounting for deferred
taxes. Under the asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and
liabilities are established for the temporary differences between the financial
reporting basis and the tax basis of the Corporation's assets and liabilities
at enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when such amounts are realized or
settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax
rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
EARNINGS PER SHARE (EPS)
As required for entities with complex capital structures, a dual
presentation of basic and diluted EPS is included on the face of the income
statement, and a reconciliation is provided in a footnote of the numerator and
denominator of the basic EPS computation to the numerator and denominator of
the diluted EPS computation.
COMPREHENSIVE INCOME
Effective January 1, 1998, the Corporation adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income". SFAS No.
130 establishes standards for reporting and displaying comprehensive income and
its components (revenues, expenses, gains and losses) in a full set of
general-purpose financial statements. Comprehensive income is defined as the
change in equity of an enterprise during a period from transactions and other
events and circumstances from nonowner sources and, accordingly, includes both
net income and amounts referred to as other comprehensive income. SFAS No. 130
requires that an enterprise (a) classify items of other comprehensive income by
their nature in a financial statement and (b) display the accumulated balance
of other comprehensive income separately from retained earnings and surplus in
the equity section of a statement of financial position. In accordance with the
provisions of SFAS No. 130, comparative consolidated financial statements
presented for earlier periods have been reclassified to reflect the provisions
of the statement.
30
FNB CORP. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
NOTE 1 -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES -- (Continued)
EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
The Corporation has a defined benefit pension plan covering substantially
all full-time employees. Pension costs, which are actuarially determined using
the projected unit credit method, are charged to current operations. Annual
funding contributions are made up to the maximum amounts allowable for Federal
income tax purposes.
Medical and life insurance benefits are provided by the Corporation on a
postretirement basis under defined benefit plans covering substantially all
full-time employees. Postretirement benefit costs, which are actuarially
determined using the attribution method and recorded on an unfunded basis, are
charged to current operations and credited to a liability account on the
consolidated balance sheet.
The Corporation adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
132, "Employers' Disclosures about Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits,
an Amendment of Statements No. 87, 88, and 106", during 1998. SFAS No. 132
standardizes the disclosure requirements for pensions and other postretirement
benefits, requires additional information on changes in the benefit obligations
and fair values of plan assets and eliminates certain disclosures previously
required. The methods of measurement and recognition for such plans remain
unchanged. Disclosures for earlier periods provided for comparative purposes
have been restated to reflect the provisions of SFAS No. 132.
STOCK OPTIONS
The Corporation accounts for awards under employee stock-based
compensation plans in accordance with APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock
Issued to Employees" and, acordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized
for such awards in the consolidated financial statements. As required by
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation", the Corporation discloses in a footnote the pro
forma effect on net income and earnings per share that would result from the
use of the fair value based method to measure compensation costs related to
awards granted after December 15, 1994.
DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Corporation may use off-balance sheet derivative contracts for
interest rate risk management purposes. The existing contracts, all of which
expired in 1999, were accounted for on the accrual basis and the net interest
differential, including premiums paid, if any, were recognized as an adjustment
to interest income or expense of the related asset or liability. The
Corporation does not utilize derivative financial instruments for trading
purposes.
RESTATEMENTS
Share and per share information in the consolidated financial statements
and related notes thereto have been restated, where appropriate, to reflect the
two-for-one common stock split effected in the form of a 100% stock dividend
paid to shareholders on March 18, 1998.

Total loans ...................... $265,029 $229,722
======== ========
Loans as presented are reduced by net deferred loan fees of $553,000 and
$443,000 at December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. Nonaccrual loans amounted
to $1,451,000 at December 31, 1999 and $731,000 at December 31, 1998. Interest
income that would have been recorded on nonaccrual loans for the years ended
December 31, 1999 and 1998, had they performed in accordance with their
original terms, amounted to approximately $144,000 and $59,000, respectively.
Interest income on all such loans included in the the results of operations
amounted to approximately $90,000 in 1999 and $30,000 in 1998. For the year
ended December 31, 1997, lost and recorded interest income on nonaccrual loans
was not material.
At December 31, 1999, the Bank had impaired loans with three borrowers
which totaled $1,420,000 and were also on nonaccrual status. The related
allowance for loan losses on these loans amounted to $289,000. The payment of
principal and interest on impaired loans with one borrower is guaranteed up to
a specified percentage by an agency of the U. S. Government. Based on the
balances outstanding at December 31, 1999, the guaranteed portion of impaired
loans amounted to $792,000. At December 31, 1998, the Bank had impaired loans
with one borrower which totaled $467,000 and were also on nonaccrual status.
The related allowance for loan losses on these loans amounted to $200,000. The
average carrying value of impaired loans was $1,508,000 in 1999 and $467,000 in
1998. Interest income on impaired loans amounted to approximately $87,000 in
1999 and was not material in 1998.
Loans with outstanding balances of $213,000 in 1999 were transferred from
loans to other real estate acquired through foreclosure. Such loans transferred
in 1998 and 1997 were not material. Other real estate acquired through loan
foreclosures amounted to $115,000 at December 31, 1999 and are included in
"other assets" on the consolidated balance sheet. There was no balance of other
real estate acquired through loan foreclosures at December 31, 1998.
Loans are primarily made in the region of North Carolina that includes
Randolph, Montgomery and Chatham counties. The real estate loan portfolio can
be affected by the condition of the local real estate markets. Included in
consumer loans at December 31, 1999 and 1998 are $963,000 and $3,745,000,
respectively, of retail installment loan contracts purchased primarily from
automobile dealers. In March 1996, the Bank discontinued the purchase of retail
installment loan contracts from automobile and equipment dealers.
Loans have been made by the Bank to directors and executive officers of
the Corporation and to the associates of such persons, as defined by the
Securities and Exchange Commission. Such loans were made in the ordinary course
of business on substantially the same terms, including rate and collateral, as
those prevailing at the time in comparable transactions with other borrowers
and do not involve more than normal risk of collectibility. A summary of the
activity during 1999 with respect to related party loans is as follows (in

NOTE 14 -- CAPITAL ADEQUACY REQUIREMENTS
Certain regulatory requirements restrict the lending of funds by the Bank
to FNB Corp. and the amount of dividends which can be paid to FNB Corp. In
2000, the maximum amount of dividends the Bank can pay to FNB Corp., without
the approval of the Comptroller of the Currency, is $5,253,000 plus an
additional amount equal to the retained net income in 2000 up to the date of
any dividend declaration.
The Bank is required to maintain average reserve balances with the Federal
Reserve Bank based on a percentage of deposits. For the reserve maintenance
period in effect at December 31, 1999, the average daily reserve requirement
was $4,407,000.
40
FNB CORP. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
NOTE 14 -- CAPITAL ADEQUACY REQUIREMENTS -- (Continued)
FNB Corp. and the Bank are required to comply with capital adequacy
standards established by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.
In addition, the Bank is required to comply with prompt corrective action
provisions established by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement
Act. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt
corrective action, there are minimum ratios of capital to risk-weighted assets.
The capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative
judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other
factors. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain
mandatory and possibly discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken,
could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.
Regulatory capital amounts and ratios are set forth in the table below.
The risk-based capital ratios are determined by expressing allowable capital
amounts, defined in terms of Tier 1, Tier 2 and Tier 3, as a percentage of
risk-weighted assets, which are computed by measuring the relative credit risk
of both the asset categories on the balance sheet and various off-balance sheet
exposures. Tier 1 capital consists primarily of common shareholders' equity and
qualifying perpetual preferred stock, net of goodwill and other disallowed
intangible assets. Tier 2 capital, which is limited to the total of Tier 1
capital, includes allowable amounts of subordinated debt, mandatory convertible
debt, preferred stock and the allowance for loan losses. Tier 3 capital,
applicable only to financial institutions subject to certain market risk
capital guidelines, is capital allocated to support the market risk related to
a financial institution's ongoing trading activities. At December 31, 1999, FNB
Corp. and the Bank were not subject to the market risk capital guidelines and,
accordingly, had no Tier 3 capital allocation. Total capital, for risk-based
purposes, consists of the sum of Tier 1, Tier 2 and Tier 3 capital.
The Bank is well-capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt
corrective action. To be categorized as well-capitalized, the Bank must meet
minimum total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set
forth in the table below. There are no events or conditions since the
notification that management believes have changed the Bank's category.

NOTE 15 -- SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY
EARNINGS PER SHARE (EPS)
Basic net income per share, or basic EPS, is computed by dividing net
income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the
period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if the
Corporation's dilutive stock options were exercised. The numerator of the basic
EPS computation is the same as the numerator of the diluted EPS computation for
all periods presented. A reconciliation of the denominators of the basic and
diluted EPS computations is as follows:

STOCK OPTIONS
The Corporation adopted a stock compensation plan in 1993 that allows for
the granting of incentive and nonqualified stock options to key employees and
directors. Under terms of the plan, options are granted at prices equal to the
fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant. Options become
exercisable after one year in equal, cumulative installments over a five-year
period. No option shall expire later than ten years from the date of grant. A
maximum of 720,000 shares of common stock has been reserved for issuance under
the stock compensation plan. At December 31, 1999, there were 225,750 shares
available under the plan for the granting of additional options.
The Corporation applies APB Opinion No. 25 in accounting for the stock
compensation plan and, accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized
for stock option grants in the consolidated financial statements. As required
by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123, disclosures are
presented below for the effect on net income and net income per share that
would result from the use of the fair value based method to measure
compensation costs related to stock option grants in 1995 and subsequent years.
The effect on pro forma net income for 1999, 1998 and 1997 for options granted
prior to 1995 has not been determined. Consequently, the effects of applying
SFAS No. 123 pro forma disclosures during the initial phase-in period may not
be representative of the effects on reported net income in future years.

NOTE 16 -- COMMITMENTS
In the normal course of business, various commitments are outstanding that
are not reflected in the consolidated financial statements. At December 31,
1999, a summary of significant commitments is as follows:
Commitments to extend credit ........ $64,966,000
Standby letters of credit ........... 382,000
In management's opinion, these commitments will be funded from normal
operations with not more than the normal risk of loss.
NOTE 17 -- FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value
for each class of financial instruments.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS. For cash on hand, amounts due from banks, and
federal funds sold, the carrying value is considered to be a reasonable
estimate of fair value.
INVESTMENT SECURITIES. The fair value of investment securities is based on
quoted market price, if available. If a quoted market price is not available,
fair value is estimated using quoted market prices for similar securities.
43
FNB CORP. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
NOTE 17 -- FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS -- (Continued)
LOANS. The fair value of loans is estimated by discounting the future cash
flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers
with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities.
DEPOSITS. The fair value of noninterest-bearing demand deposits and NOW,
savings and money market deposits is the amount payable on demand at the
reporting date. The fair value of time deposits is estimated using the rates
currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.
BORROWED FUNDS. The carrying value of retail repurchase agreements and
federal funds purchased is considered to be a reasonable estimate of fair
value. The fair value of Federal Home Loan Bank advances is estimated using the
rates currently offered for advances of similar remaining maturities.
COMMITMENTS. The fair value of commitments to extend credit is considered
to approximate carrying value, since the large majority of these commitments
would result in loans that have variable rates and/or relatively short terms to
maturity. For other commitments, generally of a short-term nature, the carrying
value is considered to be a reasonable estimate of fair value. The various
commitment items are disclosed in Note 16.
The estimated fair values of financial instruments are as follows:

Federal funds purchased ................. 7,735 7,735 1,545 1,545
The fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time based on
relevant market and other information about the financial instruments. These
estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from
offering for sale at one time the Corporation's entire holdings of a particular
financial instrument nor are potential taxes and other expenses that would be
considered in an actual sale considered. Because no market exists for a
significant portion of the Corporation's financial instruments, fair value
estimates are based on judgments regarding future expected loss experience,
current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial
instruments, and such other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature
and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore
cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly
affect the estimates. In addition, the tax ramifications related to the
realization of the unrealized gains and losses can have a significant effect on
fair value estimates and have not been considered in the estimates.
NOTE 18 -- ACQUISITION MATTERS
On October 16, 1999, the Corporation entered into a definitive merger
agreement to acquire Carolina Fincorp, Inc. ("Carolina Fincorp"), holding
company for Richmond Savings Bank, Inc., SSB ("Richmond Savings"),
headquartered in Rockingham, North Carolina. Under the terms of the agreement,
Carolina Fincorp will be merged with a wholly-owned subsidiary of FNB Corp.
formed for the purposes of effecting the merger, immediately after which, the
subsidiary will be merged into FNB Corp. Following the merger of holding
companies, Richmond Savings will be merged with and into the Bank. The merger
will be accounted for as a pooling-of-interests transaction and is subject to
several conditions, including approval by
44
FNB CORP. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
NOTE 18 -- ACQUISITION MATTERS -- (Continued)
the shareholders of FNB Corp. and Carolina Fincorp and approval by applicable
regulatory authorities. On March 21, 2000, the shareholders of both FNB Corp.
and Carolina Fincorp voted to approve the merger, leaving certain contractual
conditions of the merger agreement to be satisfied. Upon satisfaction of these
conditions, the merger is anticipated to close early in the second quarter of
2000. To effect the merger, each share of Carolina Fincorp common stock will be
converted into .79 (subject to possible adjustment) of a share of FNB Corp.
common stock. At December 31, 1999, Carolina Fincorp operated five offices
through Richmond Savings and had approximately $120,069,000 in total assets,
$102,917,000 in deposits and $16,138,000 in stockholders' equity.
On June 3, 1997, the Corporation entered into a definitive agreement to
acquire a savings bank in Siler City, North Carolina. Under terms of the
agreement, the savings bank shareholders were to receive $15.50 per share,
either in FNB Corp. common stock or in cash or a combination thereof, subject
to the limitation that FNB Corp. common stock issued in the merger would be not
more than 60% and not less than 50% of the total consideration. On January 28,
1998, as permitted by the agreement, the Board of Directors of the savings bank
exercised its right to terminate the proposed combination due to the increase
in the market value of FNB Corp. common stock above a specified level. The
Corporation incurred certain costs in connection with the proposed acquisition.
Those costs, which had been initially deferred, amounted to $305,000 and are
included in terminated merger expenses in the consolidated statement of income
for the year ended December 31, 1997.
