The nature of the securities which are temporarily impaired can be segmented into three groups. The first group consists of two Federal agency mortgage-backed securities totaling $3.8 million with a temporary loss of $8,562. The securities within this group have estimated maturity dates of 22 months and 51 months, and return principal on a monthly basis representing the repayment and prepayment of the underlying mortgages. The Corporation has the ability to hold these bonds to their maturity.


7



   

The second group consists of one corporate bond, rated A2 by Moody’s, totaling $1.0 million with a temporary loss of $25,000. This bond has a remaining maturity of approximately 29 years, but can be called at par on its five year anniversary. If not called, the bond reprices every three months at a fixed index above LIBOR. The Corporation has the ability to hold this bond to its maturity.

The final security is preferred stock with Freddie Mac totaling $487,500 with a temporary loss of $5,500. The Corporation has the ability to hold this stock.

Company-Obligated Mandatorily Redeemable Capital Securities of Subsidiary Trust

On March 26, 2002, the Company’s wholly-owned Connecticut statutory business trust privately issued $4 million face amount of the trust’s Floating Rate Capital Securities (“Capital Securities”) in a pooled capital securities offering. Simultaneously, the trust used the proceeds of that sale to purchase $4 million principal amount of the Company’s Floating Rate Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debentures due 2032 (“Subordinated Debentures”). Both the Capital Securities and the Subordinated Debentures are callable at any time after five years from the issue date. The Subordinated Debentures are an unsecured obligation of the Company and are junior in right of payment to all present and future senior indebtedness of the Company. The Capital Securities are guaranteed by the Company on a subordinated basis.

The Capital Securities are presented in the consolidated balance sheets of the Company under the caption “Company-Obligated Mandatorily Redeemable Capital Securities.” The Company records distributions payable on the Capital Securities as an Interest Expense in its consolidated statements of income. The cost of issuance of the Capital Securities was approximately $128,000. This cost is being amortized over a five year period from the issue date.

Stock-Based Compensation

At March 31, 2004, the Corporation has a stock-based compensation plan. The Corporation accounts for the plan under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations. No stock-based employee compensation cost is reflected in net income, as all options granted under the plan had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of the grant. The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share for the Corporation had the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, been applied to stock-based compensation.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

In addition to the historical information contained herein, this report contains forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are based on certain assumptions and describe future plans, strategies, and expectations of management, and are generally identifiable by use of the words “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “project,” “may,” “will” or similar expressions. Although we believe our plans, intentions and expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, we can give no assurance that these plans, intentions, or expectations will be achieved. Our ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain, and actual results could differ materially from those contemplated. Factors that could have a material adverse effect on our operations and future prospects include, but are not limited to, changes in: interest rates, general economic conditions, the legislative/regulatory climate, monetary and fiscal policies of the U.S. Government, including the policies of the U.S. Treasury and the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, the quality or composition of The Fauquier Bank’s (“TFB”) loan or investment portfolios, demand for loan products, deposit flows, competition, demand for financial services in our market area, and accounting principles, policies and guidelines. These risks and uncertainties should be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements in this report, and you should not place undue reliance on such statements, which reflect our position as of the date of this report.

GENERAL

Fauquier Bankshares, Inc. (“Bankshares”) was incorporated under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia on January 13, 1984. Bankshares is a registered bank holding company and owns all of the voting shares of TFB, a Virginia state-chartered bank that commenced operations in 1902. Bankshares engages in its business through TFB, and has no significant operations other than owning the stock of TFB. Bankshares had issued and outstanding 3,317,289 shares of common stock, par value $3.13 per share, held by approximately 377 holders of record on March 31, 2004.

TFB has seven full service branch offices located in the Virginia communities of Warrenton, Catlett, The Plains, Sudley Road-Manassas, Old Town-Manassas and New Baltimore. The executive offices of Bankshares and the main office of TFB are located at 10 Courthouse Square, Warrenton, Virginia 20186. TFB purchased a property in Bealeton, Virginia in April 2003, and has begun building its eighth full-service branch office scheduled to open during May 2004.

TFB’s general market area principally includes Fauquier County, western Prince William County, and neighboring communities and is located approximately fifty (50) miles southwest of Washington, D.C.

TFB provides a range of consumer and commercial banking services to individuals, businesses and industries. The deposits of TFB are insured up to applicable limits by the Bank Insurance Fund of the Federal Deposit Insurance Fund (the “FDIC”). The basic services offered by TFB include: demand interest bearing and non-interest bearing accounts, money market deposit accounts, NOW accounts, time deposits, safe deposit services, credit cards, cash management, direct deposits, notary services, money orders, night depository, traveler’s checks, cashier’s checks, domestic collections, savings bonds, bank drafts, automated teller services, drive-in tellers, internet banking, and banking by mail. In addition, TFB makes secured and unsecured commercial and real estate loans, issues stand-by letters of credit and grants available credit for installment, unsecured and secured personal loans, residential mortgages and home equity loans, as well as automobile and other types of consumer financing. TFB provides automated teller machine (“ATM”) cards, as a part of the Star and Plus ATM networks, thereby permitting customers to utilize the convenience of larger ATM networks.

TFB operates a Wealth Management Services (“WMS”) division that began with the granting of trust powers to TFB in 1919. The WMS division provides personalized services that include investment

11


management, trust, estate settlement, retirement, insurance, and brokerage services. TFB, through its subsidiary Fauquier Bank Services, Inc. has equity ownership interests in Bankers Insurance, LLC, a Virginia independent insurance company, and Bankers Investments Group, LLC, a full service broker/dealer. Bankers Insurance consists of a consortium of 56 Virginia community bank owners and Bankers Investments Group is owned by 29 Virginia community banks.

The revenues of TFB are primarily derived from interest on, and fees received in connection with, real estate and other loans, and from interest and dividends from investment and mortgage-backed securities, and short-term investments. The principal sources of funds for TFB’s lending activities are its deposits, repayment of loans, the sale and maturity of investment securities, and borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) of Atlanta. The principal expenses of TFB are the interest paid on deposits and operating and general administrative expenses.

As is the case with banking institutions generally, TFB’s operations are materially and significantly influenced by general economic conditions and by related monetary and fiscal policies of financial institution regulatory agencies, including the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (“Federal Reserve”). As a Virginia-chartered bank and a member of the Federal Reserve, TFB is supervised and examined by the Federal Reserve and the Virginia State Corporation Commission (“SCC”). Interest rates on competing investments and general market rates of interest influence deposit flows and costs of funds. Lending activities are affected by the demand for financing of real estate and other types of loans, which in turn is affected by the interest rates at which such financing may be offered and other factors affecting local demand and availability of funds. TFB faces strong competition in the attraction of deposits (its primary source of lendable funds) and in the origination of loans.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

GENERAL.  Bankshares’ financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). The financial information contained within our statements is, to a significant extent, based on measures of the financial effects of transactions and events that have already occurred. A variety of factors could affect the ultimate value that is obtained either when earning income, recognizing an expense, recovering an asset or relieving a liability. We use historical loss factors as one factor in determining the inherent loss that may be present in our loan portfolio. Actual losses could differ significantly from the historical factors that we use in our estimates. In addition, GAAP itself may change from one previously acceptable accounting method to another method. Although the economics of our transactions would be the same, the timing of events that would impact our transactions could change.

ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES.  The allowance for loan losses is an estimate of the losses that may be sustained in our loan portfolio. The allowance is based on two basic principles of accounting: (i) Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 5 “Accounting for Contingencies,” which requires that losses be accrued when they are probable of occurring and estimable and (ii) SFAS No. 114, “Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan,” which requires that losses be accrued based on the differences between the value of collateral, present value of future cash flows or values that are observable in the secondary market and the loan balance.

Our allowance for loan losses has three basic components: the specific allowance, the formula allowance and the unallocated allowance. Each of these components is determined based upon estimates that can and do change when the actual events occur.

The specific allowance is used to individually allocate an allowance for larger balance, non-homogeneous loans. The specific allowance uses various techniques to arrive at an estimate of loss. First, analysis of the borrower’s overall financial condition, resources and payment record, the prospects for support from financial guarantors; and the fair market value of collateral are used to estimate the probability and severity of inherent losses. Additionally, the migration of historical default rates and loss severities, internal risk ratings, industry and market conditions and trends, and other environmental factors are considered. The use

12


of these values is inherently subjective and our actual losses could be greater or less than the estimates.

The formula allowance is used for estimating the loss on pools of smaller-balance, homogeneous loans; including 1-4 family mortgage loans, installment loans, other consumer loans, and outstanding loan commitments. Also, the formula allowance is used for the remaining pool of larger balance, non-homogeneous loans which were not allocated a specific allowance upon their review. The formula allowance begins with estimates of probable losses inherent in the homogeneous portfolio based upon various statistical analyses. These include analysis of historical and peer group delinquency and credit loss experience, together with analyses that reflect current trends and conditions. We also consider trends and changes in the volume and term of loans, changes in the credit process and/or lending policies and procedures, and an evaluation of overall credit quality. The formula allowance uses a historical loss view as an indicator of future losses. As a result, even though this history is regularly updated with the most recent loss information, it could differ from the loss incurred in the future.

The unallocated allowance captures losses that are attributable to various economic events, industry or geographic sectors whose impact on the portfolio have occurred but have yet to be recognized in either the formula or specific allowances. In addition, an unallocated reserve is maintained to recognize the imprecision in estimating and measuring inherent losses on individual loans or pools of loans.

EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW

This discussion is intended to focus on certain financial information regarding Bankshares and TFB and may not contain all the information that is important to the reader. The purpose of this discussion is to provide the reader with a more thorough understanding of our financial statements. As such, this discussion should be read carefully in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes contained elsewhere in this report.

Through merger and consolidation of other local banks, TFB has become the primary independent community bank in its immediate market area. It continually seeks to be the principal financial service provider for its market area by providing the right mix of high quality customer service, efficient technological support, value-added products, and a strong commitment to the community.

Net income of $1.07 million for the quarter ending March 31, 2004 was a 2% decrease from the March 2003 quarter net income of $1.09 million. The net income results for the first quarter of 2004 were fundamentally in-line with management’s internal projections. Bankshares and TFB experienced growth across all primary operating businesses, with growth in commercial and retail lending, deposit accounts and core deposits, and assets under WMS management. During the first quarter of 2003, TFB modified its loan pricing strategies and expanded its loan product offerings in an effort to increase lending activity without sacrificing the existing credit quality standards. The result of this was a 37% increase in net loan outstandings from March 31, 2003 to March 31, 2004. Deposits increased 21% from March 31, 2003 to March 31, 2004, with TFB gaining in-market customers who grew dissatisfied with the service and pricing resulting from the consolidation of other local community banks into larger, out-of-market financial institutions. WMS assets under management grew by $61 million to $220 million, or 39%, from March 31, 2003 to March 31, 2004, with WMS revenue increasing from $219,000 to $325,000 or 48% for the same respective quarters, as management focused more people, marketing, and other resources toward WMS business.

Management continues the expansion of its branch network into southern Fauquier County with a new branch scheduled to open in Bealeton, Virginia during May of 2004. Additionally, TFB looks to add to its branch network in western Prince William County, as well as Fauquier County. TFB is looking toward these new retail markets for growth in deposits and WMS income. Management also seeks to increase the level of its fee income from deposits and WMS through the increase of its market share within its current marketplace.

COMPARISION OF OPERATING RESULTS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2004 AND MARCH 31, 2003

NET INCOME.  Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2004 was $1.07 million or $0.30 per

13


diluted share compared with $1.09 million or $0.32 per diluted share for the three months ended March 31, 2003. The $21,000 or 1.9% decrease in net income for the quarter was fundamentally in-line with management expectations with the exception of the $33,000 decline in service charges on deposit accounts. Please refer to the section entitled “Total Other Income” below for more explanation of this variation from expectations.

NET INTEREST INCOME.  Net interest income increased $515,000 or 14.4% to $4.08 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004 compared with $3.57 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003. The increase in net interest income resulted from increased interest and fee income on loans as a result of the increase in volume of loans outstanding. The net interest margin, computed on a tax equivalent basis, for the March 2004 quarter was 4.55% compared with 4.96% for the same quarter one year earlier. The decrease in the net interest margin can be attributed primarily to the continuation of the declining interest rate environment, and the corresponding reduction in the average rate on earning assets, which declined on a tax equivalent basis to 5.67% for the quarter ended March 31, 2004, from 6.36% for the quarter ended March 31, 2003.

Average interest-earning assets grew 23.3% to $362.2 million for the first quarter of 2004 compared with $293.8 million for the first quarter of 2003. Total interest income increased $516,000 or 11.2% to $5.11 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004, compared with $4.59 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003, as a result of the growth in interest-earning assets. Investment securities income decreased $234,000 or 38.4%. Investment securities averaged $50.8 million for the first quarter of 2004 compared with $71.0 million for the same quarter one year earlier. The yield on investment securities was 3.07% on a tax-equivalent basis for the first quarter of 2004, compared with 3.50% for the first quarter of 2003. Interest and fees on loans increased $189,000 or 4.5% to $4.39 million for the March 2004 quarter compared with the same quarter one year earlier. Average loans outstanding totaled $304.2 million and earned 6.23% on a tax-equivalent basis for the quarter ended March 31, 2004, compared with $221.6 million and 7.31%, respectively, for the quarter ended March 31, 2003.

Total interest expense increased $1,000 or 0.1% to $1,022,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2004 from $1,021,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2003. Average interest-bearing liabilities grew 22.8% to $291.4 million for the first quarter of 2004 compared with $237.4 million for the first quarter of 2003, while the average cost on interest-bearing liabilities decreased to 1.40% from 1.74% for the same respective time periods. The decrease in total interest expense and the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities was due to the continuation of the declining interest rate environment. Average certificates of deposit balances for the third quarter of 2003 were $77.6 million at an average cost of 2.47%, compared with $72.2 million at an average cost of 2.88% for the same quarter one year earlier. Interest-bearing NOW account deposits averaged $65.2 million at an average cost of 0.13% for the March 2004 quarter, compared with $47.2 million at an average cost of 0.25% for the March 2003 quarter. Interest-bearing money market deposits averaged $67.7 million at an average cost of 0.82% for the quarter ended March 31, 2004, compared with $58.0 million at an average cost of 1.33% for the same quarter one year earlier. Savings account deposits averaged $40.3 million at an average cost of 0.37% for the March 2004 quarter, compared with $39.5 million at an average cost of 0.61% for the March 2003 quarter. Average FHLB of Atlanta advances were $26.2 million at an average cost of 3.19% for the first quarter of 2004, and $15.0 million at an average cost of 4.64% one year earlier.

Net interest income is the largest component of net income, and equals the difference between income generated on interest-earning assets and interest expense incurred on interest-bearing liabilities. Future trends regarding net interest income are dependent on the absolute level of market interest rates, the shape of the yield curve, the amount of lost income from non-performing assets, the amount of prepaying loans, the mix and amount of various deposit types, and many other factors, as well as the overall volume of interest-earning assets. These factors are individually difficult to predict, and when taken together, the uncertainty of future trends compounds. Based on management’s current projections, net interest income may increase in 2004 and beyond as average interest-earning assets increase, but this may be offset in part or in whole by a possible contraction in TFB’s net interest margin resulting from competitive market conditions. Additionally, TFB’s balance sheet is positioned for a stable or rising interest rate environment. This means that net interest is projected to increase if market interest rates rise, and to decrease if market

14


interest rates fall. The specific nature of TFB’s variability in net interest income due to changes in interest rates, also known as interest rate risk, is to a large degree the result of TFB’s deposit base structure. During the first quarter of 2004, demand deposits, NOW, and savings deposits averaged 22%, 20%, and 13% of total average deposits, respectively, while the more interest-rate sensitive time certificates of deposit averaged 24% of total average deposits.

The following table sets forth information relating to Bankshares’ average balance sheet and reflects the average yield on assets and the average annualized cost of liabilities for the three month periods ended March 31, 2004 and 2003. Such yields and costs are derived by annualizing the income or expense for the periods presented, and dividing the product of the annualizaton by the respective average daily balances of assets and liabilities for the periods presented.

Income and rates on non-taxable assets are computed on a tax equivalent basis using a federal tax rate of 34%.

The monitoring and management of net interest income is the responsibility of TFB’s Asset and Liability Management Committee (“ALCO”). ALCO meets no less than once a month, and is comprised of TFB’s senior management.

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES. The provision for loan losses was $154,000 and $75,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The respective amounts of the provision for loan losses were determined based upon management’s continual evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, which encompasses the overall risk characteristics of the loan portfolio, trends in TFB’s delinquent and non-performing loans, estimated values of collateral, and the impact of economic conditions

16


on borrowers. There can be no assurances, however, that future losses will not exceed estimated amounts, or that additional provisions for loan losses will not be required in future periods. The increased level in the loan loss provision was necessitated by applying the formula allowance methodology to the overall increase in TFB’s loan portfolio outstandings. Total loan outstandings, net increased $83.4 million from March 31, 2003 to March 31, 2004. Please refer to the section entitled “Critical Accounting Policies: Allowance for Loan Losses” above for an explanation of the formula allowance methodology.

TOTAL OTHER INCOME.  Total other income increased by $125,000 or 11.0% from $1.13 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003 to $1.26 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004. This increase stemmed primarily from the $106,000 or 48.4% increase in revenues within TFB’s Wealth Management Services division, and the $61,000 increase in other service charges, commissions, and fees, which primarily reflects a full quarter’s income generated from the February 28, 2003 purchase of bank-owned life insurance (“BOLI”).

Service charges on deposit accounts decreased $33,000, or 5.3% to $599,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2004, compared with $632,000 for the same quarter one year earlier. Management had expected deposits on service charges to increase essentially in proportion to the growth in transaction account deposits. The variation from expectations was primarily due to the increase in the average retail customer’s transaction deposit balances, which in turn lowered the number of occurrences for honoring customer overdrafts and generating associated fees. Whether this is a temporary variation or a more structural change in customer behavior remains to be determined.

Management seeks to increase the level of its future fee income from wealth management services through the increase of its market share within its marketplace. Wealth management fees are not projected to continue to grow at a 48% pace as it did in the first quarter of 2004 compared to the same quarter one year earlier, but are projected to stabilize during the remainder of 2004 and show more moderate growth over the longer term. Income from BOLI will be less in 2004 than 2003 due to the effect of the decline in market interest rates over the last two years on the crediting rate on the insurance. Management is not projecting any gains on the sale of securities at this time.

TOTAL OTHER EXPENSES.  Total other expenses increased 19.3% or $596,000 to $3.68 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004, compared with $3.08 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003, which was in-line with management’s internal projections. Salary and benefit expenses increased $301,000, or 19% from the March 2003 quarter to the March 2004 quarter. The primary causes of the growth in salary and benefit expense were the first quarter 2003 to first quarter 2004 increase of full-time equivalent employees from 120 to 132, as well as increases in the defined-benefit pension plan and medical insurance expense, and customary annual salary increases. Occupancy and furniture and equipment expenses also increased over the same period by $3,000 or 1.5%, and $8,000 or 2.6%, respectively. Other operating expenses increased $284,000 or 28.5%. The growth in other operating expenses primarily reflects increases in director compensation, loan fees, non-loan charge-offs, and outsourced data processing fees.

TFB expects salary and benefits to continue to be its largest other expense. As such, the most important factor with regard to potential changes in other expenses is the expansion of staff. The cost of any additional staff expansion, however, would be expected to be offset by the increased revenue generated by the additional services that the new staff would enable TFB to perform. During the remainder of 2004, TFB projects to expand its personnel base primarily to staff its new branch in Bealeton, Virginia. Similarly, occupancy, equipment, marketing, and other expenses will increase in response to this new branch opening.

COMPARISON OF MARCH 31, 2004 AND DECEMBER 31, 2003 FINANCIAL CONDITION

Assets totaled $404.9 million at March 31, 2004, an increase of 7.0% or $26.4 million from $378.5 million at December 31, 2003. Balance sheet categories reflecting significant changes include loans, federal funds sold and federal funds purchased, securities, other assets, and deposits. Each of these categories is discussed below.

17


LOANS.  Net loans were $309.1 million at March 31, 2004, which is an increase of $13.8 million or 4.7% from $295.3 million at December 31, 2003. The growth in total loans is primarily attributable to an increase in mortgage loans collateralized by commercial real estate of $9.0 million, an increase in commercial and industrial loans of $3.4 million, and an increase in mortgage loans collateralized by 1-to-4 family residential real estate of $2.9 million. TFB’s loans are made primarily to customers located within TFB’s primary market area. During 2003, and continuing into 2004, TFB modified its loan pricing strategies and expanded its loan product offerings in an effort to increase lending activity without sacrificing the existing credit quality standards. This was the primary reason for the increase in loans outstanding. Management will continue the same pricing strategies for the remainder of 2004, but does not project to originate the same level of 1-4 family residential real estate loans as in 2003, primarily due to competitive pressures and market interest rates.

INTEREST-BEARING DEPOSITS IN OTHER BANKS.  Interest-bearing deposits in other banks totaled $8.9 million at March 31, 2004 compared with $142,000 at December 31, 2003. The increase was a temporary deposit in the FHLB of Atlanta in anticipation of an April 9, 2004 payoff of a FHLB advance borrowing.

FEDERAL FUNDS SOLD and FEDERAL FUNDS PURCHASED.  Federal funds sold were $6.0 million at March 31, 2004, compared to federal funds purchased of $2.0 million at December 31, 2003.

SECURITIES.  Investment securities decreased $4.4 million from December 31, 2003 to March 31, 2004. The decrease was primarily the result of redeploying the proceeds from the prepayment of mortgage-backed securities into loans. At March 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003, all investment securities were available for sale. The valuation allowance for the available for sale portfolio had an unrealized gain, net of tax, of $288,000 at March 31, 2004 compared with an unrealized gain, net of tax, of $13,000 at December 31, 2003.

DEPOSITS.  At March 31, 2004, total deposits were $340.1 million, reflecting an increase of $18.9 million or 5.9% from $321.1 million at December 31, 2003. The growth was attributable to growth in noninterest-bearing deposits, which increased $12.8 million, and growth in interest-bearing deposits, which increased $6.1 million. Several factors may have contributed to the increase in deposits. One factor was TFB gaining in-market customers who grew dissatisfied with the service and pricing resulting from the consolidation of other local community banks into larger, out-of-market financial institutions. Another factor may have been the increase in tax refunds flowing into bank deposits. A third factor may have been gaining deposits from new loan customers. TFB projects to increase its deposits in 2004 and beyond through the expansion of its branch network, as well as by offering value added demand deposit products, and selective rate premiums on its interest-bearing deposits.

ASSET QUALITY

Non-performing assets, in most cases, consist of loans that are 90 days or more past due and for which the accrual of interest has been discontinued. Management evaluates all loans that are 90 days or more past due, as well as loans that have suffered financial distress, to determine if they should be placed on non-accrual status. Factors considered by management include the estimated value of collateral, if any, and other resources of the borrower that may be available to satisfy the delinquency.

TFB continues to have strong credit quality as evidenced by non-performing assets totaling $1,034,000 or 0.33% of total loans at March 31, 2004, as compared with $967,000, or 0.33% of total loans at December 31, 2003, and $908,000, or 0.40% of total loans at March 31, 2003. The provision for loan losses was $154,000 for the first quarter of 2004 compared with $75,000 for the first quarter of 2003. The 105% increase in the provision for loan losses from 2003 to 2004 was largely in response to the growth in new loan originations during the last 12 months, and, to a lesser extent, the continued uncertainty existing in the economic and geopolitical environment.

18


Loans that are 90 days past due and accruing interest totaled $1.1 million, $840,000 and $445,000 at March 31, 2004, December 31, 2003, and March 31, 2003, respectively. Of the five loans totaling $1.1 million that were 90 days past due and still accruing at March 31, 2004, two loans totaling $961,000 were paid off in total during April 2004. No loss is anticipated on the remaining three loans based on the value of the underlying collateral and other factors.

There are no loans, other than those disclosed above as either non-performing or impaired, where known information about the borrower has caused management to have serious doubts about the borrower’s ability to repay the loan. There are also no other interest-bearing assets that would be subject to disclosure as either non-performing or impaired if such interest-bearing assets were loans. To management’s knowledge, no concentration of loans to borrowers engaged in similar activities exceeds 10% of total loans.

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS

As of March 31, 2004, there have been no material changes outside the ordinary course of business to the contractual obligations disclosed in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis” in Bankshares’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

As of March 31, 2004, there have been no material changes to the off-balance sheet arrangements disclosed in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis” in Bankshares’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003.

CAPITAL RESOURCES

Total shareholders’ equity was $29.2 million at March 31, 2004 compared to $28.5 million at December 31, 2003, an increase of $693,000, or 2.4%. During the three months ended March 31, 2004, shareholders’ equity was increased by $275,000 due to the change in the accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). This represents the change in the market value of TFB’s available-for-sale securities portfolio from December 31, 2003 to March 31, 2004. The change in market value was the result of the sale of securities from the portfolio, purchases of securities added to the portfolio, changes in market interest rates, and other factors. In addition, TFB’s shareholders’ equity was reduced $265,000 due to the repurchase of 11,400 shares of Bankshares’ common stock during the March 2004 quarter.

Banking regulations have established minimum capital requirements for financial institutions, including risk-based capital ratios and leveraged ratios. Under these guidelines, the $4.0 million of capital securities issued by Bankshares’ subsidiary trust are treated as Tier 1 capital for purposes of the Federal Reserve’s capital guidelines for bank holding companies, as long as the capital securities and all other cumulative preferred securities of Bankshares together do not exceed 25% of Tier 1 capital. Bankshares and TFB exceed all applicable minimum regulatory capital ratios. The following table sets forth the regulatory capital ratio calculation for Bankshares:

LIQUIDITY

The primary sources of funds are deposits, repayment of loans, maturities of investments, funds provided from operations and advances from the FHLB of Atlanta. While scheduled repayments of loans and maturities of investment securities are predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and loan repayments are greatly influenced by the general level of interest rates, economic conditions and competition. TFB uses its sources of funds to fund existing and future loan commitments, to fund maturing certificates of deposit and demand deposit withdrawals, to invest in other interest-earning assets, to maintain liquidity, and to meet operating expenses. Management monitors projected liquidity needs and determines the desirable funding level based in part on TFB’s commitments to make loans and management’s assessment of TFB’s ability to generate funds.

Cash and amounts due from depository institutions, interest-bearing deposits in other banks, and federal funds sold totaled $28.7 million at March 31, 2004 compared with $12.0 million at December 31, 2003. These assets provide the primary source of liquidity for TFB. In addition, management has designated the entire investment portfolio as available of sale, of which approximately $36.3 million is unpledged and readily salable. Futhermore, TFB has an available line of credit with the FHLB of Atlanta with a borrowing limit of approximately $113.5 million at March 31, 2004 to provide additional sources of liquidity, as well as available federal funds purchased lines of credit with various commercial banks totaling approximately $38.4 million. At December 31, 2003, $29.0 million of the FHLB of Atlanta line of credit was in use.

Management is not aware of any market or institutional trends, events or uncertainties that are expected to have a material effect on the liquidity, capital resources or operations of Bankshares or TFB. Nor is management aware of any current recommendations by regulatory authorities that would have a material effect on liquidity, capital resources or operations. TFB’s internal sources of such liquidity are deposits, loan and investment repayments, and securities available for sale. TFB’s primary external source of liquidity is advances from the FHLB of Atlanta.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

ITEM 4.   CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

As a result of the enactment of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, issuers such as Bankshares that file periodic reports under the Exchange Act of 1934 are required to include in those reports certain information concerning the issuer’s controls and procedures for complying with the disclosure requirements of the federal securities laws. These disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act, is communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive officer or officers and principal financial officer or officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

We have established disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that material information related to Bankshares is made known to our principal executive officer and principal financial officer on a regular basis, in particular during the periods in which our quarterly and annual reports are being prepared. These disclosure controls and procedures consist principally of communications between and among the chief executive officer and the chief financial officer, and the other executive officers of Bankshares and its subsidiaries to identify any new transactions, events, trends, contingencies or other matters that may be material to Bankshares’ operations. The chief executive officer and chief financial officer evaluated the effectiveness of these disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report and, based on their evaluation, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were operating effectively.

Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that Bankshares’ disclosure controls and procedures will detect or uncover every situation involving the failure of persons within the organization to disclose material information otherwise required to be set forth in Bankshares’ periodic reports.

Bankshares’ management is also responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal controls over financial reporting and control of Bankshares’ assets to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. There were no changes in Bankshares’ internal control over financial reporting or control of assets during the quarter ended March 31, 2004 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, Bankshares’ internal control over financial reporting or control of assets.
