Note 1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Organization
Grayson Bankshares, Inc. (the Company) was incorporated as a Virginia
corporation on February 3, 1992 to acquire the stock of The Grayson National
Bank (the Bank). The Bank was acquired by the Company on July 1, 1992.
The Bank was organized under the laws of the United States in 1900 and currently
serves Grayson County, Virginia and surrounding areas through six banking
offices. As an FDIC insured, National Banking Association, the Bank is subject
to regulation by the Comptroller of the Currency. The Company is regulated by
the Federal Reserve.
The consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2002 and for the
periods ended September 30, 2002 and 2001 included herein, have been prepared by
the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission. In the opinion of management, the
information furnished in the interim consolidated financial statements reflects
all adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company's consolidated financial
position, results of operations, changes in stockholders' equity and cash flows
for such interim periods. Management believes that all interim period
adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. These consolidated financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited financial
statements and the notes thereto as of December 31, 2001, included in the
Company's Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2001.
The accounting and reporting policies of the Company and the Bank follow
generally accepted accounting principles and general practices within the
financial services industry.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and
the Bank, which is wholly owned. All significant, intercompany transactions and
balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Note 2. Allowance for Loan Losses
The following is an analysis of the allowance for loan losses for the nine

Grayson Bankshares, Inc. and Subsidiary
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note 4. Commitments and Contingencies
Financial Instruments with Off-Balance-Sheet Risk
The Bank is party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the
normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These
financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters
of credit. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, credit risk in excess
of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheets.
The Bank's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other
party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby
letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments.
The Bank uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional
obligations as for on-balance-sheet instruments. A summary of the Bank's
commitments at Septemer 30, 2002 and 2001 is as follows:
2002 2001
------------- --------------
Commitments to extend credit $ 6,222,286 $ 5,421,965
Standby letters of credit - -
------------- --------------
$ 6,222,286 $ 5,421,965
============= ==============
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as
there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments
generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may
require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire
without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily
represent future cash requirements. The Bank evaluates each customer's
creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if
deemed necessary by the Bank upon extension of credit, is based on management's
credit evaluation of the party. Collateral held varies, but may include accounts
receivable, inventory, property and equipment, residential real estate and
income-producing commercial properties.
Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Bank to
guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Those guarantees are
primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements. The
credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as
that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. Collateral held varies
as specified above and is required in instances which the Bank deems necessary.

Part I: Financial Information
Item 2: Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Results of Operations
Total interest income increased by $229,031 for the quarter ended September 30,
2002 compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2001, while interest expense on
deposits and other borrowings decreased by $145,516 over the same period. This
resulted in an increase in net interest income of $374,547 or 22.50%. This
increase is due primarily to the stabilization of interest rates, which enabled
the Bank to recapture some of the interest margin that was lost during the rapid
rate declines of 2001.
Other income was up $107,260 in the second quarter of 2002 compared to the
second quarter of 2001. This is a result of increases in the cash value of
bank-owned life insurance policies which were purchased in January 2002.
The provision for credit losses was $105,000 for the quarter ended September 30,
2002 and $70,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2001. An increase in the
provision was necessary based on overall loan growth as well as an increase in
the percentage of commercial credits. Management believes the provision and the
resulting allowance for loan losses are adequate.
Total other expenses increased by $232,330, or 23.41% for the quarter ended
September 30, 2002 compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2001. This is due
primarily to a cost increase of over twenty percent for employee medical
benefits and equipment costs associated with the upgrading of various computer
systems.
The significant increases in net interest income and other income resulted in an
increase in net income before taxes of $214,477, or 30.07% for the quarter ended
September 30, 2002, compared to the same quarter in 2001. Increased income
generated an increase in income tax expense, however our effective tax rate
decreased by approximately 1.69% due to increases in tax-exempt investments. Net
income increased by $168,977, or 33.14% to $678,852 for the second quarter of
2002 compared to net income of $509,875 for the same period in 2001.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2002, total interest income increased by
$382,745 compared to the nine-month period ended September 30, 2001, while
interest expense decreased by $479,684 over the same period. This resulted in an
increase in net interest income of $862,429, or 17.61%. As stated above, net
interest margins increased as interest rates began to stabilize.
Other income was up $239,458 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2002
compared to the same period in 2001. Again this was the result of increases in
the cash value of bank-owned life insurance policies.
Normal cost increases, combined with the aforementioned costs of benefits and
equipment upgrades, resulted in an overall increase in other expenses of
$464,762 for the first nine months of 2002 compared to the first nine months of
2001. Net income for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2002 increased by
$421,625, or 30.06% compared to the nine-month period ended September 30, 2001.
Financial Condition
Total assets increased by $31,514,936, or 15.64% from December 31, 2001 to
September 30, 2002. Net loans increased by $12,245,104 and investment securities
increased by $11,557,307.
Total deposits increased by $19,252,006, or 10.74% from December 31, 2001 to
September 30, 2002. In the fourth quarter of 2001, the Bank applied for, and was
granted membership in the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta. The Bank used this
membership in the first quarter of 2002 to borrow funds at a low fixed-interest
rate and in turn invest the funds in securities with similar maturities in order
to enhance earnings. FHLB advances were $10,000,000 at Septembre 30, 2002.
Shareholders' equity totaled $23,034,750 at September 30, 2002 compared to
$21,085,773 at December 31, 2001. The $1,948,977 increase was the result of
earnings for the nine months combined with a $502,980 increase in the market
value of securities that are classified as available for sale, less the payment
of dividends of $378,173.

Item 2: Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Regulatory guidelines relating to capital adequacy provide minimum risk-based
ratios at the Bank level which assess capital adequacy while encompassing all
credit risks, including those related to off-balance sheet activities. The Bank
(a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company) exceeds all regulatory capital
guidelines and is considered to be well capitalized.
Forward-Looking Statements
Certain information contained in this discussion may include "forward-looking
statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
These forward-looking statements are generally identified by phrases such as
"the Company expects," "the Company believes" or words of similar import. Such
forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks including, but not
limited to, changes in general economic and business conditions, interest rate
fluctuations, competition within and from outside the banking industry, new
products and services in the banking industry, risk inherent in making loans
such as repayment risks and fluctuating collateral values, problems with
technology utilized by the Company, changing trends in customer profiles and
changes in laws and regulations applicable to the Company. Although the Company
believes that its expectations with respect to the forward-looking statements
are based upon reliable assumptions within the bounds of its knowledge of its
business and operations, there can be no assurance that actual results,
performance or achievements of the Company will not differ materially from any
future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such
forward-looking statements.

Item 3: Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The principal goals of the Bank's asset and liability management strategy are
the maintenance of adequate liquidity and the management of interest rate risk.
Liquidity is the ability to convert assets to cash to fund depositors'
withdrawals or borrowers' loans without significant loss. Interest rate risk
management balances the effects of interest rate changes on assets that earn
interest or liabilities on which interest is paid, to protect the Bank from wide
fluctuations in its net interest income which could result from interest rate
changes.
Management must ensure that adequate funds are available at all times to meet
the needs of its customers. On the asset side of the balance sheet, maturing
investments, loan payments, maturing loans, federal funds sold, and unpledged
investment securities are principal sources of liquidity. On the liability side
of the balance sheet, liquidity sources include core deposits, the ability to
increase large denomination certificates, federal fund lines from correspondent
banks, borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank and the Federal Reserve Bank,
as well as the ability to generate funds through the issuance of long-term debt
and equity.
Interest rate risk is the effect that changes in interest rates would have on
interest income and interest expense as interest-sensitive assets and
interest-sensitive liabilities either reprice or mature. Management attempts to
maintain the portfolios of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing
liabilities with maturities or repricing opportunities at levels that will
afford protection from erosion of net interest margin, to the extent practical,
from changes in interest rates.
The Bank uses a number of tools to manage its interest rate risk, including
simulating net interest income under various scenarios, monitoring the present
value change in equity under the same scenarios, and monitoring the difference
or gap between rate sensitive assets and rate sensitive liabilities over various
time periods.
The earnings simulation model forecasts annual net income under a variety of
scenarios that incorporate changes in the absolute level of interest rates,
changes in the shape of the yield curve and changes in interest rate
relationships. Management evaluates the effect on net interest income from
gradual changes in the Prime Rate of up to 300 basis points up or down over a
12-month period. The current model indicates that an increase in rates of 300
basis points over the next twelve months would result in a decrease in net
interest income of $621,000, or 8.64%, while a similar decrease in rates would
result in an increase in net interest income of $568,000, or 7.91%. The model
also incorporates Management's forecasts for balance sheet growth, noninterest
income and noninterest expense. The interest rate scenarios are used for
analytical purposes and do not represent Management's view of future market
movements. Rather, these are intended to provide a measure of the degree of
volatility interest rate movements may apply to the earnings of the Company.
Modeling the sensitivity of earnings to interest rate risk is highly dependent
on numerous assumptions embedded in the simulation model. While the earnings
sensitivity analysis incorporates Management's best estimate of interest rate
and balance sheet dynamics under various market rate movements, the actual
behavior and resulting earnings impact likely will differ from that projected.
