The debt securities are obligations of entities that are excellent credit risks. The impairment as noted is the result of interest rate market conditions and does not reflect on the ability of the issuers to repay the debt obligations.

VIRGINIA FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The preferred stock category has one issue that is showing a loss. The issuer is the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac). The impairment is the result of interest rate market conditions and there is a high probability of full recovery of investment. The fixed income nature of this investment causes significant movement in value in relation to the fixed income market. However, there is no change in the dividend stream or credit quality of the issue as a result.

VIRGINIA FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The Company utilizes overnight advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta for short term funding needs. The banking subsidiaries have available a combined $235 million line of credit with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta. Advances on the line are secured by a blanket lien on loan portfolios of Second Bank & Trust, Virginia Heartland Bank and Planters Bank & Trust Company of Virginia. The blanket lien covers the 1 to 4 family dwelling loans, home equity loans, and commercial loans. As of March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004, only 1 to 4 family loans were pledged totaling $122 million and $119 million, respectively.

The Company has a line of credit agreement with a correspondent bank for general working capital needs. The $15 million line is unsecured, calls for variable interest payments and is payable on demand.

Second Bank & Trust has an agreement with the Federal Reserve where it can borrow funds deposited by its customers. This agreement calls for variable interest and is payable on demand. U. S. Government securities and U. S. Treasury notes are pledged as collateral. The targeted threshold maximum amount available under this agreement is $7.0 million.

Securities sold under agreements to repurchase, which are classified as secured borrowings, generally mature within one to four days from the transaction date. Securities sold under agreements to repurchase are reflected at the amount of cash received in connection with the transaction.

The average balance of short-term borrowings outstanding did not exceed 30 percent of stockholders’ equity for the three months ended March 31, 2005 or the year ended December 31, 2004.

7.	Long-term Debt:

The Company has outstanding fixed-rate, long-term debt with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta of $14.10 million at March 31, 2005 that matures through 2010. At March 31, 2005, the interest rates on the fixed-rate, long-term advances ranged from 1.96% to 7.07%. One advance totaling $40 thousand at March 31, 2005 requires quarterly principal payments totaling $20 thousand plus interest. The remainder of the advances requires quarterly interest payments with principal due upon maturity. The average interest rate was 5.19% at March 31, 2005 with an average balance outstanding of $14.1 million.

The contractual maturities of long-term debt are as follows:


2005	$	4,040
2006		5,000
2010		5,000

	$	14,040

VIRGINIA FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

8.	Trust Preferred Capital Notes:

During the first quarter of 2004, VFG Limited Liability Trust, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, was formed for the purpose of issuing redeemable Capital Securities (commonly referred to as Trust Preferred Capital Notes). On March 18, 2004, $20 million of Trust Preferred Capital Notes were issued through a private transaction. The Trust issued $619 thousand in common equity to the Corporation. The securities have a LIBOR-indexed floating rate of interest which adjusts, and is payable, quarterly. The interest rate at March 31, 2005 was 5.29%. The securities may be redeemed at par beginning in June, 2009 and each quarterly anniversary of such date until the securities mature on June 17, 2034. The principal asset of the Trust is $20.6 million of the Company’s junior subordinated debt securities with like maturities and like interest rates to the Capital Securities.

The Trust Preferred Capital Notes may be included in Tier I capital for regulatory capital adequacy determination purposes up to 25% of Tier I capital after its inclusion. The portion of the Trust Preferred not considered as Tier I capital may be included in Tier II capital.

The obligations of the Company with respect to the issuance of the capital securities constitute a full and unconditional guarantee by the Company of the Trust’s obligations with respect to the capital securities.

Subject to certain exceptions and limitations, the Company may elect from time to time to defer interest payments on the junior subordinated debt securities, which would result in a deferral of distribution payments on the related capital securities.

9.	Earnings Per Share:

The following shows the weighted average number of shares used in computing earnings per share and the effect on weighted average number of shares of diluted potential common stock for the three month periods ended March 31, 2005 and 2004. Potential dilutive stock had no effect on income available to common stockholders.


	2005			2004
	Shares	Per Share Amount		Shares	Per Share Amount
Basic earnings per share	7,163,198	$	0.56	7,153,348	$	0.48

Effect of dilutive securities:
Restricted shares	18,655			17,853
Stock options	28,995			31,727

Diluted earnings per share	7,210,848	$	0.56	7,202,928	$	0.48

In 2005 and 2004, stock options representing 8,260 and 6,283 shares, respectively, were not included in the calculation of earnings per share as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

10.	Stock Compensation Plan:

At March 31, 2005, the Company has a stock-based employee compensation plan which is accounted for under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations. No stock-based 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 three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004 if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, to stock-based compensation (000’s omitted).

11.	Employee Benefit Plan:

The Company has a noncontributory pension plan which conforms to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). The amount of benefits payable under the plan is determined by an employee’s period of credited service. The amount of normal retirement benefit will be determined based on a Pension Equity Credit formula. The employee receives credits based on their age and years of service. The plan provides for early retirement for participants with five years of service and the attainment of age 55. The benefits are payable in single or joint/survivor annuities as well as a lump sum payment upon retirement or separation of service. The components of net periodic benefit cost are as follows:

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

The following discussion provides management’s analysis of the consolidated financial results of operations, financial condition, liquidity and capital resources of Virginia Financial Group, Inc. (VFG) and its affiliates. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and footnotes appearing elsewhere in this report.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

In addition to historical information, Management’s Discussion and Analysis contains forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ materially from historical results, or those anticipated. When we use words such as “believes”, “expects”, “anticipates” or similar expressions, we are making forward-looking statements. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which reflect management’s analysis only as of the date thereof. VFG wishes to caution the reader that factors, such as those listed below, in some cases have affected and could affect VFG’s actual results, causing actual results to differ materially from those in any forward looking statement. These factors include:

•

expected cost savings from VFG’s acquisitions and dispositions,

•

competitive pressure in the banking industry or in VFG’s markets may increase significantly,

•

changes in the interest rate environment may reduce margins,

•

general economic conditions, either nationally or regionally, may be less favorable than expected, resulting in, among other things, credit quality deterioration,

•

changes may occur in banking legislation and regulation, or VFG may not be released from its supervisory agreement with the Federal Reserve related to Bank Secrecy Compliance within anticipated timeframes,

•

changes may occur in general business conditions, and

•

changes may occur in the securities markets.

Critical Accounting Policies

General

The Company’s 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, financial information that is 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 addition, GAAP itself may change from one previously acceptable 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.

VIRGINIA FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses is established as losses are estimated to have occurred through a provision for loan losses charged to earnings. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance.

The Company’s affiliate Banks conduct an analysis of the loan portfolio on a regular basis. This analysis is used in assessing the sufficiency of the allowance for loan losses and in the determination of the necessary provision for loan losses. The review process generally begins with lenders identifying problem loans to be reviewed on an individual basis for impairment. When a loan has been identified as impaired, a specific reserve may be established based on management’s calculation of the loss embedded in the individual loan. In addition to impairment testing, the Banks have an eight point grading system for each non-homogeneous loan in the portfolio. Loans meeting the criteria for impairment are segregated for analysis from performing loans within the portfolio. Loans are then grouped by loan type and, in the case of commercial loans, by risk rating. Each loan type is assigned an allowance factor based on historical loss experience, economic conditions, and overall portfolio quality including delinquency rates. The total of specific reserves required for impaired classified loans and the calculated reserves by loan category are then compared to the recorded allowance for loan losses. This is the methodology used to determine the sufficiency of the allowance for loan losses and the amount of the provision for loan losses. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available.

A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Impairment is measured on a loan-by-loan basis for commercial and construction loans by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s obtainable market price, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent.

Larger groups of smaller balance homogeneous loans are collectively evaluated for impairment. Accordingly, the Company does not separately identify individual consumer and residential loans for impairment disclosures, unless such loans are subject to a restructuring agreement.

VIRGINIA FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Goodwill

The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (“SFAS 142”), effective January 1, 2002. Accordingly, goodwill is no longer subject to amortization over its estimated useful life, but is subject to at least an annual assessment for impairment by applying a fair value based test. Additionally, under SFAS 142, acquired intangible assets (such as core deposit intangibles) are separately recognized if the benefit of the asset can be sold, transferred, licensed, rented, or exchanged, and amortized over their useful life. Branch acquisition transactions were outside the scope of SFAS 142 and, accordingly, intangible assets related to such transactions continued to amortize upon the adoption of SFAS 142. The cost of purchased deposit relationships and other intangible assets, based on independent valuation, are being amortized over their estimated lives not to exceed fifteen years. Amortization expense charged to operations was $168 thousand and $173 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This report refers to the efficiency ratio, which is computed by dividing non-interest expense by the sum of net interest income on a tax equivalent basis and non-interest income. This is a non-GAAP financial measure that we believe provides investors with important information regarding our operational efficiency. Such information is not in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and should not be construed as such. Management believes such financial information is meaningful to the reader in understanding operating performance, but cautions that such information not be viewed as a substitute for GAAP. VFG, in referring to its net income, is referring to income under generally accepted accounting principles, or “GAAP”.

Results of Operations

Virginia Financial Group, Inc.’s consolidated net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 amounted to $4.0 million or $.56 per diluted share, compared to earnings of $3.5 million or $.48 per diluted share for the quarter ended March 31, 2004. Net income increased 16.2% and diluted earnings per share increased 16.7% compared to first quarter 2004 results. The Company’s earnings for the first quarter produced an annualized return on average assets (ROA) of 1.13% and return on average equity (ROE) of 12.74%, compared to prior year ratios of 0.99% and 11.51%, respectively.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income increased $694 thousand or 5.6% to $13.2 million for the first quarter of 2005. This improvement can be attributed to an expanding net interest margin, and continuing growth in average earning assets. The net interest margin for the first quarter of 2005 was 4.15%, compared to 4.09% for the first quarter of 2004. The increase is largely due to the increase in short term rates and the resulting impact on loan yields which are indexed to the prime rate.

The following tables provide information on average earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004 as well as amounts and rates of tax equivalent interest earned and interest paid. The tax equivalent adjustment, utilizing a federal statutory rate of 35%, amounted to $407 thousand and $462 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and March 31, 2004, respectively.

Noninterest Income

Total noninterest income was $3.7 million for the first quarter of 2005, an increase of 6.9% compared to $3.5 million for the first quarter of 2004. Included in the 2005 results is a net gain of $408 thousand in connection with the sale of two branches located in Tazewell County. Retail banking fees increased $116 thousand or 7.5% to $1.7 million, compared to $1.5 million in the first quarter of 2004. VFG experienced lower revenues from mortgage operations, with mortgage banking fees amounting to $475 thousand, a decrease of $170 thousand or 26.4%, as compared to $645 thousand for the first quarter of 2004. While revenues were down, closings and mortgage pipelines showed solid growth. Mortgage loans available for sale increased to $9.7 million, an increase of $4.0 million or 70% from December 31, 2004. In addition, the pipeline of mortgage loans in process increased $37.1 million or 52.4% from December 31, 2004. Trust and brokerage revenues were down $69 thousand or 7.1% compared to the first quarter of 2004, with brokerage and estate related fees showing declines for the quarter.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense for the first quarter of 2005 amounted to $10.5 million, an increase of $99 thousand or 1.0% compared to $10.4 million for the same period in 2004. Compensation and benefits increased $187 thousand or 3.2%, but was partially offset by a decrease in professional fees of $71 thousand or 35.3%. Included in noninterest expense for the first quarter of 2005 were $120 thousand in non-recurring expenses associated with compensation benefits and conversion costs associated with Virginia Commonwealth Trust Company. VFG’s efficiency ratio was 60.8% for the quarter, compared to 63.5% for the same quarter in 2004.

Income Taxes

Income tax expense for the first quarter of 2005 amounted to $1.8 million resulting in an effective tax rate of 30.8% compared to $1.4 million, or 28.5%, for the first quarter of 2004. The increase in the effective tax rate for the quarter is a result of a decrease in earnings from tax-exempt assets as a percentage of total income. The rate of loan growth has resulted in a decrease in the securities component of the Company’s balance sheet, resulting in less municipal security holdings and related tax exempt interest.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Asset Quality

The Company’s provision for loan losses for the first quarter was $546 thousand, a decrease of $135 thousand or 19.8% from the same period in 2004, consistent with a slightly decreased rate of growth and general improvement in asset quality during the period. Non-performing assets and net charge-offs were at improved levels, with non-performing assets as a percentage of total assets of .15% at March 31, 2005 compared to .28% at December 31, 2004. Net charge-offs for the first quarter were $71 thousand, compared to net charge-offs of $141 thousand for the same period in 2004. Net charge-offs as a percentage of average loans were .01% for the first quarter, compared to .01% for the quarter ended March 31, 2004. At March 31, 2005, the allowance for loan losses as a percentage of non-performing assets was 556.21%. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans amounted to 1.12%, up slightly from 1.10% at December 31, 2004, and consistent with changes in asset risk ratings and growth in the commercial real estate component of the portfolio during the period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Capital Resources

The management of capital in a regulated financial services industry must properly balance return on equity to stockholders while maintaining sufficient capital levels and related risk-based capital ratios to satisfy regulatory

VIRGINIA FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

requirements. Additionally, capital management must also consider acquisition opportunities that may exist, and the resulting accounting treatment. The Company’s capital management strategies have been developed to provide attractive rates of returns to stockholders, while maintaining its “well-capitalized” position at each of the banking subsidiaries.

The primary source of additional capital to the Company is earnings retention, which represents net income less dividends declared. During the first quarter ended March 31, 2005, the Company retained $2.6 million, or 64.3% of its net income. Stockholders’ equity increased by $1.9 million, reflecting the earnings retention and a decrease of $778 thousand in accumulated comprehensive income net of tax, which relates primarily to a universal decline in bond market valuations, resulting in a decrease in unrealized gains on securities available-for-sale during the period.

The Company and its banking subsidiaries are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company and the subsidiary banks’ financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and its banking subsidiaries must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of their assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and reclassifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and its banking subsidiaries to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of total and Tier 1 capital to average assets. Management believes, as of March 31, 2005 that the Company and the subsidiary banks met all minimum capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject and are categorized as “well capitalized.” There are no conditions or events that management believes have changed the subsidiary banks’ well capitalized position.

The following table includes information with respect to the Company’s risk-based capital as of March 31, 2005 (000 omitted):


Tier 1 capital	$	129,126
Tier 2 capital		12,301
Total risk-based capital		141,427
Total risk-weighted assets		1,145,253
Average adjusted total assets		1,425,786

Liquidity

Liquidity is identified as the ability to generate or acquire sufficient amounts of cash when needed and at a reasonable cost to accommodate withdrawals, payments of debt, and increased loan demand. These events may

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

occur daily or other short-term intervals in the normal operation of the business. Experience helps management predict time cycles in the amount of cash required. In assessing liquidity, management gives consideration to relevant factors including stability of deposits, quality of assets, economy of market served, concentrations of business and industry, competition, and the Company’s overall financial condition. The Company’s primary source of liquidity is cash, securities in our available for sale portfolio and a $15 million line of credit with a correspondent bank. In addition, the Banks have substantial lines of credit from their correspondent banks and access to the Federal Reserve discount window and Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta to support liquidity as conditions dictate.

The liquidity of the parent Company also represents an important aspect of liquidity management. The parent Company’s cash outflows consist of overhead associated with corporate expenses, executive management, finance, marketing, human resources, audit, compliance and loan review functions. It also includes outflows associated with dividends to shareholders. The main sources of funding for the parent company are the management fees and dividends it receives from its banking and trust subsidiaries, a working line of credit with a correspondent bank, and availability of the trust preferred security market as deemed necessary. The Company’s capital base provides the resource and ability to support the assets of the Company and provide capital for future expansion.

In the judgment of management, the Company maintains the ability to generate sufficient amounts of cash to cover normal requirements and any additional funds as needs may arise.

Off Balance Sheet Items

There have been no material changes to the off balance sheet items disclosed in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis” in VFG’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004.

Contractual Obligations

There have been no material changes outside the ordinary course of business to the contractual obligations disclosed in VFG’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004.

Effects of Inflation

The effect of changing prices on financial institutions is typically different from other industries as the Company’s assets and liabilities are monetary in nature. Interest rates and thus the Company’s asset liability management is impacted by changes in inflation, but there is not a direct correlation between the two measures. Management monitors the impact of inflation on the financial markets.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

On December 16, 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 123R (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment,” (FAS 123R) that addresses the accounting for share-based payment transactions in which a company receives employee services in exchange for either equity instruments of the Company or liabilities that are based on the fair value of the Company’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of such equity instruments. FAS 123R eliminates the ability to account for share-based compensation transactions using the intrinsic method and requires that such transactions be accounted for using a fair-value-based method and recognized as expense in the consolidated statement of income. The effective date of FAS 123R (as amended by the SEC) is for annual periods beginning after June 15, 2005. The provisions of FAS 123R do not have an impact on the Company’s results of operations at the present time.

In March 2005, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 (SAB 107). SAB 107 expresses the views of the SEC staff regarding the interaction of FAS 123R and certain SEC rules and regulations and provides the SEC staff’s view regarding the valuation of share-based payment arrangements for public companies. SAB 107 does not impact the Company’s results of operations at the present time.

PART I – FINANCIAL INFORMATION

ITEM 3 – QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

There have been no significant changes to the quantitative and qualitative market risk disclosures in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004.

ITEM 4 – CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

We are required to include in our periodic reports information regarding our 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 us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act, is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

We have established disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that material information related to the Company 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. Our principal executive officer and principal 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 are operating effectively.

Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that our 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 our period reports.

Our management is also responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal controls over financial reporting and control of our 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 our internal control over financial reporting or control of assets during the quarter ended March 31, 2005 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting or control of assets.
