PART I

Item 1.

Business

General

Highlands Bankshares, Inc. (hereinafter referred to as “Highlands,” or the “Company”), incorporated under the laws of the State of West Virginia in 1985, is a multi bank holding company subject to the provisions of the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended. Highlands owns 100% of the outstanding stock of its subsidiary banks, The Grant County Bank and Capon Valley Bank (hereinafter referred to as the “Banks” or “Capon” and/or “Grant”), and its life insurance subsidiary, HBI Life Insurance Company (hereinafter referred to as “HBI Life”).

The Grant County Bank was chartered on August 6, 1902, and Capon Valley Bank was chartered on July 1, 1918. Both are state banks chartered under the laws of the State of West Virginia. HBI Life was chartered in April 1988 under the laws of the State of Arizona.

Services Offered by the Banks

The Banks offer all services normally offered by a full service commercial bank, including commercial and individual demand and time deposit accounts, commercial and individual loans, drive in banking services, internet banking services, and automated teller machines. No material portion of the Banks' deposits have been obtained from a single or small group of customers and the loss of the deposits of any one customer or of a small group of customers would not have a material adverse effect on the business of the Banks. Credit life and accident and health insurance are sold to customers of the subsidiary Banks through HBI Life.

Employees

As of December 31, 2009, The Grant County Bank had 69 full time equivalent employees, Capon Valley Bank had 47 full time equivalent employees and Highlands had 4 full time equivalent employees. No person is employed by HBI Life on a full time basis.

Competition

The Banks' primary trade area is generally defined as Grant, Hardy, Mineral, Randolph, Pendleton and Tucker Counties in West Virginia, the western portion of Frederick County in Virginia and portions of Western Maryland. This area includes the towns of Petersburg, Wardensville, Moorefield and Keyser and several rural towns. The Banks' secondary trade area includes portions of Hampshire County in West Virginia. The Banks primarily compete with four state chartered banks, three national banks, and three credit unions. In addition, the Banks compete with money market mutual funds and investment brokerage firms for deposits in their service area. No financial institution has been chartered in the area within the last five years although other state and nationally chartered banks have opened branches in this area within this time period. Competition for new loans and deposits in the Banks' service area is quite intense.

Regulation and Supervision

The Company, as a registered bank holding company, and its subsidiary Banks, as insured depository institutions, operate in a highly regulated environment and are regularly examined by federal and state regulators. The following description briefly discusses certain provisions of federal and state laws and regulations and the potential impact of such provisions to which the Company and subsidiary are subject. These federal and state laws and regulations are designed to reduce potential loss exposure to the depositors of such depository institutions and to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation’s insurance fund and are not intended to protect the Company’s security holders. Proposals to change the laws and regulations governing the banking industry are frequently raised in Congress, in state legislatures, and before the various bank regulatory agencies. The likelihood and timing of any changes and the impact such changes might have on the Company are impossible to determine with any certainty. A change in applicable laws or regulations, or a change in the way such laws or regulations are interpreted by regulatory agencies or courts, may have a material impact on the business, operations and earnings of the Company. To the extent that the following information describes statutory or regulatory provisions, it is qualified entirely by reference to the particular statutory or regulatory provision.

Index

As a bank holding company registered under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the “BHCA”), the Company is subject to regulation by the Federal Reserve Board. Federal banking laws require a bank holding company to serve as a source of financial strength to its subsidiary depository institutions and to commit resources to support such institutions in circumstances where it might not do so otherwise. Additionally, the Federal Reserve Board has jurisdiction under the BHCA to approve any bank or non-bank acquisition, merger or consolidation proposed by a bank holding company. The BHCA generally limits the activities of a bank holding company and its subsidiaries to that of banking, with the managing or controlling of banks as to be a proper incident thereto. The BHCA also prohibits a bank holding company, with certain exceptions, from acquiring more than 5% of the voting shares of any company and from engaging in any business other than banking or managing or controlling banks. The Federal Reserve Board has determined by regulation that certain activities are closely related to banking within the meaning of the BHCA. These activities include: operating a mortgage company, finance company, credit card company or factoring company; performing certain data processing operations; providing investment and financial advice; and acting as an insurance agent for certain types of credit-related insurance.

The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (“Gramm-Leach”) became law in November 1999. Gramm-Leach established a comprehensive framework to permit affiliations among commercial banks, investment banks, insurance companies, securities firms, and other financial service providers. Gramm-Leach permits qualifying bank holding companies to register with the Federal Reserve Board as “financial holding companies” and allows such companies to engage in a significantly broader range of financial activities than were historically permissible for bank holding companies. Although the Federal Reserve Board provides the principal regulatory supervision of financial services permitted under Gramm-Leach, the Securities and Exchange Commission and state regulators also provide substantial supervisory oversight. In addition to broadening the range of financial services a bank holding company may provide, Gramm-Leach also addressed customer privacy and information sharing issues and set forth certain customer disclosure requirements. The Company has no current plans to petition the Federal Reserve Board for consideration as a financial holding company.

The Riegle-Neal Interstate Banking and Branching Efficiency Act of 1994 (“Riegle-Neal”) permits bank holding companies to acquire banks located in any state. Riegle-Neal also allows national banks and state banks with different home states to merge across state lines and allows branch banking across state lines, unless specifically prohibited by state laws.

The International Money Laundering Abatement and Anti-Terrorist Financing Act of 2001 (“Patriot Act”) was adopted in response to the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. The Patriot Act provides law enforcement with greater powers to investigate terrorism and prevent future terrorist acts. Among the broad-reaching provisions contained in the Patriot Act are several designed to deter terrorists’ ability to launder money in the United States and provide law enforcement with additional powers to investigate how terrorists and terrorist organizations are financed. The Patriot Act creates additional requirements for banks, which were already subject to similar regulations. The Patriot Act authorizes the Secretary of Treasury to require financial institutions to take certain “special measures” when the Secretary suspects that certain transactions or accounts are related to money laundering. These special measures may be ordered when the Secretary suspects that a jurisdiction outside of the United States, a financial institution operating outside of the United States, a class of transactions involving a jurisdiction outside of the United States or certain types of accounts are of “primary money laundering concern.” The special measures include the following: (a) require financial institutions to keep records and report on transactions or accounts at issue; (b) require financial institutions to obtain and retain information related to the beneficial ownership of any account opened or maintained by foreign persons; (c) require financial institutions to identify each customer who is permitted to use the account; and (d) prohibit or impose conditions on the opening or maintaining of correspondence or payable-through accounts. Failure of a financial institution to maintain and implement adequate programs to combat money laundering and terrorist financing or to comply with all of the relevant laws or regulations could have serious legal and reputational consequences for an institution.

The operations of the insurance subsidiary are subject to the oversight and review by the State of Arizona Department of Insurance.

On July 30, 2002, the United States Congress enacted the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, a law that addresses corporate governance, auditing and accounting, executive compensation and enhanced timely disclosure of corporate information. As Sarbanes-Oxley directs, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer are each required to certify that the Company’s quarterly and annual reports do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact. Additionally, these individuals must certify the following: they are responsible for establishing, maintaining and regularly evaluating the effectiveness of the Company’s internal controls; they have made certain disclosures to the Company’s auditors and the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors about the Company’s internal controls; and they have included information in the Company’s quarterly and annual reports about their evaluation and whether there have been significant changes in the Company’s internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to the evaluations.

Capital Adequacy

Federal banking regulations set forth capital adequacy guidelines, which are used by regulatory authorities to assess the adequacy of capital in examining and supervising a bank holding company and its insured depository institutions. The capital adequacy guidelines generally require bank holding companies to maintain total capital equal to at least 8% of total risk-adjusted assets, with at least one-half of total capital consisting of core capital (i.e., Tier I capital) and the remaining amount consisting of “other” capital-eligible items (i.e., Tier II capital), such as perpetual preferred stock, certain subordinated debt, and, subject to limitations, the allowance for loan losses. Tier I capital generally includes common stockholders’ equity plus, within certain limitations, perpetual preferred stock and trust preferred securities. For purposes of computing risk-based capital ratios, bank holding companies must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items, calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Company’s and its subsidiaries’ capital accounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.

In addition to total and Tier I capital requirements, regulatory authorities also require bank holding companies and insured depository institutions to maintain a minimum leverage capital ratio of 3%. The leverage ratio is determined as the ratio of Tier I capital to total average assets, where average assets exclude goodwill, other intangibles, and other specifically excluded assets. Regulatory authorities have stated that minimum capital ratios are adequate for those institutions that are operationally and financially sound, experiencing solid earnings, have high levels of asset quality and are not experiencing significant growth. The guidelines also provide that banking organizations experiencing internal growth or making acquisitions will be expected to maintain strong capital positions substantially above the minimum supervisory levels. In those instances where these criteria are not evident, regulatory authorities expect, and may require, bank holding companies and insured depository institutions to maintain higher than minimum capital levels.

Additionally, federal banking laws require regulatory authorities to take “prompt corrective action” with respect to depository institutions that do not satisfy minimum capital requirements. The extent of these powers depends upon whether the institutions in question are “well capitalized,” “adequately capitalized,” “undercapitalized,” “significantly undercapitalized,” or “critically undercapitalized,” as such terms are defined under uniform regulations defining such capital levels issued by each of the federal banking agencies. As an example, a depository institution that is not well capitalized is generally prohibited from accepting brokered deposits and offering interest rates on deposits higher than the prevailing rate in its market. Additionally, a depository institution is generally prohibited from making any capital distribution (including payment of a dividend) or paying any management fee to its holding company, may be subject to asset growth limitations and may be required to submit capital restoration plans if the depository institution is considered undercapitalized.

The Company’s and its subsidiaries’ regulatory capital ratios are presented in the table below:

	Actual Ratio			Actual Ratio			Regulatory

Dividends and Other Payments

The Company is a legal entity separate and distinct from its subsidiaries. Dividends and management fees from Grant County Bank and Capon Valley Bank are essentially the sole source of cash for the Company, although HBI Life will periodically pay dividends to the Company. The right of the Company, and shareholders of the Company, to participate in any distribution of the assets or earnings of Grant County Bank and Capon Valley Bank through the payment of such dividends or otherwise is necessarily subject to the prior claims of creditors of Grant County Bank and Capon Valley Bank, except to the extent that claims of the Company in its capacity as a creditor may be recognized. Moreover, there are various legal limitations applicable to the payment of dividends to the Company as well as the payment of dividends by the Company to its shareholders. Under federal law, Grant County Bank and Capon Valley Bank may not, subject to certain limited exceptions, make loans or extensions of credit to, or invest in the securities of, or take securities of the Company as collateral for loans to any borrower. Grant County Bank and Capon Valley Bank are also subject to collateral security requirements for any loans or extensions of credit permitted by such exceptions.

Grant County Bank and Capon Valley Bank are subject to various statutory restrictions on their ability to pay dividends to the Company. Specifically, the approval of the appropriate regulatory authorities is required prior to the payment of dividends by Grant County Bank and Capon Valley Bank in excess of earnings retained in the current year plus retained net profits for the preceding two years. The payment of dividends by the Company, Grant County Bank and Capon Valley Bank may also be limited by other factors, such as requirements to maintain adequate capital above regulatory guidelines. The Federal Reserve Board and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation have the authority to prohibit any bank under their jurisdiction from engaging in an unsafe and unsound practice in conducting its business. Depending upon the financial condition of Grant County Bank and Capon Valley Bank, the payment of dividends could be deemed to constitute such an unsafe or unsound practice. The Federal Reserve Board and the FDIC have indicated their view that it’s generally unsafe and unsound practice to pay dividends except out of current operating earnings. The Federal Reserve Board has stated that, as a matter of prudent banking, a bank or bank holding company should not maintain its existing rate of cash dividends on common stock unless (1) the organization’s net income available to common shareholders over the past year has been sufficient to fund fully the dividends and (2) the prospective rate or earnings retention appears consistent with the organization’s capital needs, asset quality, and overall financial condition. Moreover, the Federal Reserve Board has indicated that bank holding companies should serve as a source of managerial and financial strength to their subsidiary banks. Accordingly, the Federal Reserve Board has stated that a bank holding company should not maintain a level of cash dividends to its shareholders that places undue pressure on the capital of bank subsidiaries, or that can be funded only through additional borrowings or other arrangements that may undermine the bank holding company’s ability to serve as a source of strength.

Governmental Policies

The Federal Reserve Board regulates money and credit and interest rates in order to influence general economic conditions. These policies have a significant influence on overall growth and distribution of bank loans, investments and deposits and affect interest rates charged on loans or paid for time and savings deposits. Federal Reserve monetary policies have had a significant effect on the operating results of commercial banks in the past and are expected to continue to do so in the future.

Various other legislation, including proposals to overhaul the banking regulatory system and to limit the investments that a depository institution may make with insured funds, are from time to time introduced in Congress. The Company cannot determine the ultimate effect that such potential legislation, if enacted, would have upon its financial condition or operations.

Beginning in late 2008, the economic environment caused higher levels of bank failures, which dramatically increased FDIC resolution costs and led to a significant reduction in the Deposit Insurance Fund. As a result, the FDIC has significantly increased the initial base assessment rates paid by financial institutions for deposit insurance. The base assessment rate was increased by seven basis points (7 cents for every $100 of deposits) for the first quarter of 2009. Effective April 1, 2009, initial base assessment rates were changed to range from 12 basis points to 45 basis points across all risk categories with possible adjustments to these rates based on certain debt-related components. These increases in the base assessment rate have increased our deposit insurance costs and negatively impacted our earnings. In addition, in May 2009, the FDIC imposed a special assessment on all insured institutions due to recent bank and savings association failures. The emergency assessment amounted to five basis points on each institution's assets minus tier one (core) capital as of June 30, 2009, subject to a maximum equal to 10 basis points times the institution's assessment base. The Company’s special assessment, which was reflected in earnings for the quarter ended June 30, 2009, was approximately $179,000. The FDIC may impose additional emergency special assessments if necessary to maintain public confidence in federal deposit insurance or as a result of deterioration in the deposit insurance fund reserve ratio due to institution failures. Any additional emergency special assessment imposed by the FDIC will negatively impact our earnings.

On November 12, 2009, the FDIC adopted a final rule requiring that all institutions prepay their assessments for the fourth quarter of 2009 and all of 2010, 2011 and 2012. This pre-payment was due on December 30, 2009. However, the FDIC may exempt certain institutions from the prepayment requirement if the FDIC determines that the prepayment would adversely affect the safety and soundness of the institution.

The Company is subject to extensive regulation, supervision and examination by federal and state banking authorities. Any change in applicable regulations or laws could have a substantial impact on the Company and the Company’s operations. Additional legislation and regulations that could significantly affect the Company’s powers, authority and operations may be enacted or adopted in the future, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. New legislation proposed by Congress may give bankruptcy courts the power to reduce the increasing number of home foreclosures by giving bankruptcy judges the authority to restructure mortgages and reduce a borrower's payments. Property owners would be allowed to keep their property while working out their debts. Other similar bills placing additional temporary moratoriums on foreclosure sales or otherwise modifying foreclosure procedures to the benefit of borrowers and the detriment of lenders may be enacted by either Congress or the States of West Virginia, Pennsylvania or Maryland in the future. These laws may further restrict the Company’s collection efforts on one-to-four single-family mortgage loans. Additional legislation proposed or under consideration in Congress would give current debit and credit card holders the chance to opt out of an overdraft protection program and limit overdraft fees, which could result in additional operational costs and a reduction in the Company’s non-interest income.

Further, the Company’s regulators have significant discretion and authority to prevent or remedy unsafe or unsound practices or violations of laws by financial institutions and holding companies in the performance of their supervisory and enforcement duties. In this regard, banking regulators are considering additional regulations governing compensation, which may adversely affect the Company’s ability to attract and retain employees. On

June 17, 2009, the Obama Administration published a comprehensive regulatory reform plan that is intended to modernize and protect the integrity of the United States financial system. The President's plan contains several elements that would have a direct effect on the Company. The reform plan proposes the creation of a new federal agency, the Consumer Financial Protection Agency, which would be dedicated to protecting consumers in the financial products and services market. The creation of this agency could result in new regulatory requirements and raise the cost of regulatory compliance. In addition, legislation stemming from the reform plan could require changes in regulatory capital requirements, and compensation practices. If implemented, the foregoing regulatory reforms may have a material impact on the Company’s operations. However, because the legislation needed to implement the President's reform plan has not been introduced, and because the final legislation may differ significantly from the legislation proposed by the Administration, the Company cannot determine the specific impact of regulatory reform at this time.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results or Operations

Forward Looking Statements

Certain statements in this report may constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are statements that include projections, predictions, expectations or beliefs about future events or results or otherwise are not statements of historical fact. Such statements are often characterized by the use of qualified words (and their derivatives) such as “expect,” “believe,” “estimate,” “plan,” “project,” “anticipate” or other similar words. Although the Company believes that its expectations with respect to certain forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions within the bounds of its existing 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. Actual future results and trends may differ materially from historical results or those anticipated depending on a variety of factors, including, but not limited to the effects of or changes in: general economic conditions, the interest rate environment, legislative and regulatory requirements, competitive pressures, new products and delivery systems, inflation, changes in the stock and bond markets, technology, downturns in the trucking and timber industries, effects of mergers and/or downsizing in the poultry industry in Hardy County, and consumer spending and savings habits. Additionally, actual future results and trends may differ from historical or anticipated results to the extent: (1) any significant downturn in certain industries, particularly the trucking and timber and coal extraction industries are experienced; (2) loan demand decreases from prior periods; (3) the Company may make additional loan loss provisions due to negative credit quality trends in the future that may lead to a deterioration of asset quality; (4) the Company does not continue to experience significant recoveries of previously charged-off loans or loans resulting in foreclosure; (5) increased liquidity needs may cause an increase in funding costs; (6) the quality of the Company’s securities portfolio may deteriorate: (7) the Company is unable to control costs and expenses as anticipated; (8) the FDIC further increases or requires prepayment of FDIC assessments; and (9) future legislation including the financial reform bill in Congress limits the Company’s activities and results in higher costs. The Company does not update any forward-looking statements that may be made from time to time by or on behalf of the Company.

Introduction

The following discussion focuses on significant results of the Company’s operations and significant changes in our financial condition or results of operations for the periods indicated in the discussion. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes included in this report. Current performance does not guarantee, and may not be indicative of, similar performance in the future.

Critical Accounting Policies

The Company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). The financial statements contained within these statements are, 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. In addition, GAAP itself may change from one previously acceptable method to another method. Although the economics of these transactions would be the same, the timing of events that would impact these transactions could change.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses is an estimate of the losses that may be sustained in the loan portfolio. The allowance is based on two basic principles of accounting: (i) ASC 450, “Contingencies”, which requires that losses be accrued when they are probable of occurring and estimable and (ii) ASC 310, “Receivables”, 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.

Index

The allowance for loan losses includes two basic components: estimated credit losses on individually evaluated loans that are determined to be impaired, and estimated credit losses inherent in the remainder of the loan portfolio. Under authoritative accounting guidance, an individual loan is impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that a Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. An individually evaluated loan that is determined not to be impaired is evaluated under ASC 450 when specific characteristics of the loan indicate that it is probable there would be estimated credit losses in a group of loans with those characteristics.

Authoritative accounting guidance does not specify how an institution should identify loans that are to be evaluated for collectibility, nor does it specify how an institution should determine that a loan is impaired. Each subsidiary of the Company uses its standard loan review procedures in making those judgments so that allowance estimates are based on a comprehensive analysis of the loan portfolio. For loans that are individually evaluated and found to be impaired, the associated allowance is based upon the estimated fair value, less costs to sell, of any collateral securing the loan as compared to the existing balance of the loan as of the date of analysis.

All other loans, including individually evaluated loans determined not to be impaired under authoritative accounting guidance, are included in a group of loans that are measured under ASC 450 to provide for estimated credit losses that have been incurred on groups of loans with similar risk characteristics. The methodology for measuring estimated credit losses on groups of loans with similar risk characteristics in accordance with authoritative accounting guidance is based on each group’s historical net charge-off rate, adjusted for the effects of the qualitative or environmental factors that are likely to cause estimated credit losses as of the evaluation date to differ from the group’s historical loss experience.

Post Retirement Benefits and Life Insurance Investments

The Company has invested in and owns life insurance policies on key officers. The policies are designed so that the Company recovers the interest expenses associated with carrying the policies and the officer will, at the time of retirement, receive any earnings in excess of the amounts earned by the Company. The Company recognizes as an asset the net amount that could be realized under the insurance contract as of the balance sheet date. This amount represents the cash surrender value of the policies less applicable surrender charges. The portion of the benefits, which will be received by the executives at the time of their retirement, is considered, when taken collectively, to constitute a retirement plan. Therefore the Company accounts for these policies using guidance found in ASC 715, “Compensation – Retirement Benefits” which requires that an employer’s obligation under a deferred compensation agreement be accrued over the expected service life of the employee through their normal retirement date.

Assumptions are used in estimating the present value of amounts due officers after their normal retirement date. These assumptions include the estimated income to be derived from the investments and an estimate of the Company’s cost of funds in these future periods. In addition, the discount rate used in the present value calculation will change in future years based on market conditions.

Intangible Assets

The Company carries intangible assets related to the purchase of two banks. Amounts paid to purchase these banks were allocated as intangible assets. Generally accepted accounting principles were applied to allocate the intangible components of the purchases. The excess was allocated between identifiable intangibles (core deposit intangibles) and unidentified intangibles (goodwill). Goodwill is required to be evaluated for impairment on an annual basis, and the value of the goodwill adjusted accordingly, should impairment be found. As of December 31, 2009, the Company did not identify an impairment of this intangible.

In addition to the intangible assets associated with the purchases of banks, the company also carries intangible assets relating to the purchase of naming rights to certain features of a performing arts center in Petersburg, WV.

A summary of the change in balances of intangible assets can be found in Note Twenty Two to the Financial Statements.

Overview of 2009 Results

Net income for 2009 decreased by 32.47% as compared to 2008. The Company experienced a 5.21% decrease in net interest income due to a continuing decline in net interest margin. The Company also experienced a significant increase in the provision for loan losses of 105.06% or $955,000 from 2008 to 2009 due to an increase in non-performing assets. Non-interest income decreased 6.19% primarily as a result of decreases in non-recurring income as well as a reduction in life insurance investment income. Non-interest expense increased 5.55% due largely to an increase in salary and benefits expense and increases in FDIC insurance premiums.

The table below compares selected commonly used measures of bank performance for the twelve month periods ended December 31, 2009 and 2008:

	2009			2008
Annualized return on average assets		0.84	%		1.32	%
Annualized return on average equity		8.33	%		12.38	%
Net interest margin (1)		4.50	%		4.97	%
Efficiency Ratio (2)		63.55	%		56.99	%
Earnings per share (3)	$	2.51		$	3.59

(1) On a fully taxable equivalent basis and including loan origination fees

(2) Non-interest expenses for the period indicated divided by the sum of net interest income and non-interest income for the period indicated.

(3) Per weighted average shares of common stock outstanding for the period indicated. Earnings per share for 2008 reflect share repurchase of 100,001 shares during the second and third quarters of 2008.

The change in non-interest income from 2008 to 2009 was impacted significantly by non-recurring items. The table below summarizes the impact of non-recurring items on both 2009 and 2008 non-interest income:

	Impact of non- recurring item, year ended December 31,

Total impact of non-recurring items on non-interest income	$	75		$	176	$	(101	)

Net Interest Income

2009 Compared to 2008

Net interest income, on a fully taxable equivalent basis, decreased 5.11% from 2008 to 2009 as average balances of both earning assets and interest bearing liabilities increased from year to year. The decrease in net interest income was most impacted by changes in average rates earned on assets and paid on interest bearing liabilities and by changes in the relative mix of earning assets and interest bearing liabilities.

For the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company’s average earning assets increased 4.83%; however, the percent of average loan balances, the highest earning of the Company’s earning assets, to total average earning assets remained relatively flat at 90.30% in 2009 compared to 90.04% in 2008. The benefits of the Company’s increase in earning assets were offset by an increase in average interest bearing liabilities from 2008 to 2009 of 5.98%. The average balances of time deposits and long-term debt, both comparatively more expensive interest

Index

bearing liabilities, increased 8.39% from 2008 to 2009. These changes in the relative mix of earning assets and interest bearing liabilities and the change in the average yields negatively impacted the Company’s net interest income.

Rate cuts by the Federal Reserve (“the Fed”) for the target rate for federal funds sold continue to impact yields on earning assets and average rates paid on interest bearing liabilities. The Company experienced declining rates for 2009 as compared to 2008 on all components of earning assets and on the savings and time deposit components of interest bearing liabilities.

The Company believes that its deposits will be sufficient to fund the current and expected loan demand. Should the loan demand increase beyond the Company’s current expectations, the Company may be required to fund these loans with borrowings which could result in a reduction of net interest margin. However, management believes total net interest income would not be adversely affected.

Also, balances of non-performing loans and other real estate acquired through foreclosure have increased from December 31, 2008 to December 31, 2009. Increases in balances of non-accrual loans and other real estate acquired through foreclosure often have adverse effects on net interest income. Should balances of non-accrual loans and other real estate acquired through foreclosure continue to increase, net interest margin may decrease accordingly. Further discussion relating to the Company’s loan portfolio and credit quality can be found as part of this Management’s Discussion and Analysis under the headings of “Loan Portfolio” and “Credit Quality.”

The table below illustrates the effects on net interest income of changes in average volumes of interest bearing liabilities and earning assets from 2008 to 2009 and changes in average rates on interest bearing liabilities and earning assets from 2008 to 2009 (in thousands of dollars):

Loan Portfolio

The Company is an active residential mortgage and construction lender and extends commercial loans to small and medium sized businesses within its primary service area. The Company’s commercial lending activity extends across its primary service areas of Grant, Hardy, Hampshire, Mineral, Randolph, Tucker and Pendleton counties in West Virginia and Frederick County, Virginia. Consistent with the Company’s focus on providing community-based financial services, the Company does not attempt to diversify its loan portfolio geographically by making significant amounts of loans to borrowers outside of its primary service area.

The table below summarizes the Company’s loan portfolio at December 31, 2009, 2008, 2007, 2006 and 2005 (in thousands of dollars):

Commercial loan balances include certain loans secured by commercial real estate. As of December 31, 2009 the Company maintained balances of loans secured by real estate of $274,610,000 or 81.86% of total loans compared to $261,289,000 or 80.21% of total loans at December 31, 2008. The increase in real estate secured loans of $13,321,000 during 2009 exceeds the increase in total loans of $9,729,000 during 2009.

There were no foreign loans outstanding during any of the above periods.

The following table illustrates the Company’s loan maturity distribution as of December 31, 2009 (in thousands of dollars):

Credit Quality

The principal economic risk associated with each of the categories of loans in the Company’s portfolio is the creditworthiness of its borrowers. Within each category, such risk is increased or decreased depending on prevailing economic conditions. The risk associated with the real estate mortgage loans and installment loans to individuals varies based upon employment levels, consumer confidence, fluctuations in value of residential real estate and other conditions that affect the ability of consumers to repay indebtedness. The risk associated with commercial, financial and agricultural loans varies based upon the strength and activity of the local economies of the Company’s market areas. The risks associated with real estate construction loans vary based upon the supply of and demand for the type of real estate under construction.

Index

An inherent risk in the lending of money is that the borrower will not be able to repay the loan under the terms of the original agreement. The allowance for loan losses (see subsequent section) provides for this risk and is reviewed at least quarterly for adequacy. This review also considers concentrations of loans in terms of geography, business type or level of risk. While lending is geographically diversified within the service area, the Company does have some concentration of loans in the area of agriculture (primarily poultry farming), and the timber and coal extraction industries. The Company recognizes these concentrations and considers them when structuring its loan portfolio.

Non-performing loans include non-accrual loans, loans 90 days or more past due and restructured loans. Non-accrual loans are loans on which interest accruals have been discontinued. Loans are typically placed in non-accrual status when the collection of principal or interest is 90 days past due and collection is uncertain based on the net realizable value of the collateral and/or the financial strength of the borrower. Also, the existence of any guaranties by federal or state agencies is given consideration in this decision. The policy is the same for all types of loans. Restructured loans are loans for which a borrower has been granted a concession on the interest rate or the original repayment terms because of financial difficulties. Non-performing loans do not represent or result from trends or uncertainties which management reasonably expects will materially impact future operating results, liquidity, or capital resources. Non-performing loans are listed in the table below.

The following table summarizes the Company’s non-performing loans (in thousands of dollars):

The carrying value of real estate acquired through foreclosure was $3,223,000 at December 31, 2009 and $1,359,000 at December 31, 2008. The Company's practice is to value real estate acquired through foreclosure at the lower of (i) an independent current appraisal or market analysis less anticipated costs of disposal, or (ii) the existing loan balance. The Company does not anticipate further losses from the disposal of other real estate owned.

Because of its large impact on the local economy, the Company continues to monitor the economic health of the poultry industry. The Company has direct loans to poultry growers and the industry is a large employer in the Company’s trade area. In recent periods, the Company’s loan portfolio has also begun to reflect a concentration in loans collateralized by heavy equipment, particularly in the trucking, mining and timber industries. Because of the impact of the slowing economic conditions on the housing market, the timber sector has experienced a recent downturn. However, the Company has experienced no material losses related to foreclosures of loans collateralized by assets typical to the timber harvest industry. While close monitoring of this sector is necessary, the Company expects no significant losses in the foreseeable future.

Allowance For Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses is an estimate of the losses in the current loan portfolio. The allowance is based on two principles of accounting: (i) ASC 450, “Contingencies” which requires that losses be accrued when they are probable of occurring and estimable and (ii) ASC 310, “Receivables”, which requires that loans be identified which have characteristics of impairment as individual risks, (e.g. the collateral, present value of cash flows or observable market values are less than the loan balance).

Index

Each of the Company's banking subsidiaries, Capon Valley Bank and The Grant County Bank, determines the adequacy of its allowance for loan losses independently. Although the loan portfolios of the two Banks are similar to each other, some differences exist which result in divergent risk patterns and different charge-off rates amongst the functional areas of the Banks’ portfolios. Each Bank pays particular attention to individual loan performance, collateral values, borrower financial condition and economic conditions. The determination of an adequate allowance at each Bank is done in a three-step process. The first step is to identify impaired loans. Impaired loans are problem loans above a certain threshold, which have estimated losses, calculated based on the fair value of the collateral with which the loan is secured.

A summary of the loans which the Company has identified as impaired follows (in thousands of dollars):

December 31, 2009
			Identified
Loan Type	Balance		Impairment
Consumer mortgage	$	2,124	$	335
Commercial		276		66
Commercial mortgage		689		87
Installment		336		174
	$	3,425	$	662

The second step is to identify loans above a certain threshold, which are problem loans due to the borrowers' payment history or deteriorating financial condition. Losses in this category are determined based on historical loss rates adjusted for current economic conditions. The final step is to calculate a loss for the remainder of the portfolio using historical loss information for each type of loan classification which are also adjusted for current economic conditions. The determination of specific allowances and weighting is somewhat subjective and actual losses may be greater or less than the amount of the allowance. However, the Company believes that the allowance represents a fair assessment of the losses that exist in the current loan portfolio.

The required level of the allowance for loan losses is computed quarterly and the allowance adjusted prior to the issuance of the quarterly financial statements. All loan losses charged to the allowance are approved by the boards of directors of each Bank at their regular meetings. In addition, the Company’s audit committee periodically reviews the allowance methodology for consistency and reasonableness. Also, both banks have outsourced independent loan review performed at least annually the results of which are reviewed by both bank boards and the Company’s audit committee with changes factored into the allowance calculations. Independent outsourced loan review considers the adequacy of loan underwriting, asset quality, the accuracy of the banks’ loan risk ratings and the appropriateness of specific reserves as well as the overall reasonableness of the allowance for loan losses. The allowance is reviewed for adequacy after considering historical loss rates, current economic conditions (both locally and nationally) and any known credit problems that have not been considered under the above formula.

The Company has analyzed the potential risk of loss on the Company's loan portfolio given the loan balances and the value of the underlying collateral and has recognized losses where appropriate. Non-performing loans are closely monitored on an ongoing basis as part of the Company's loan review process.

During 2009, the Company’s experienced level of net charge-offs, as compared to gross loan balances, was significantly greater than that experienced in 2008. As a result of the impact of increased net charge-offs, an increase in specific reserves as well as continued increases in loan balances, the Company’s provision for loan losses during 2009 was $955,000 greater than in 2008. The Company’s ratio of allowance for loan losses to gross loans increased from 1.13% at December 31, 2008 to 1.20% at December 31, 2009. At December 31, 2009, the ratio of the allowance for loan losses to non-performing loans was 60.97% compared to 66.40% at December 31, 2008. No loss is expected for loans classified as troubled-debt restructurings in the table above. When considering the removal of restructured loans from the non-performing assets, the coverage ratio increases to 84.49% at Decmeber 31, 2009 from 76.11% at December 31, 2008. These loans are performing in accordance with their restructured terms and were not on non-accrual at December 31, 2009.

Index

As certain loans identified as impaired are paid current, collateral values increase or loans are removed from watch lists for other reasons, and as other loans become identified as impaired, the allocation of the allowance among the loan types may change. The allocation also changes because delinquency levels within each of the respective portfolios change. The Company feels that the allowance is a fair representation of the losses present in the portfolio given historical loss trends, economic conditions and any known credit problems as of any quarter's end. The Company believes that the allowance is to be taken as a whole, and allocation between loan types is an estimation of potential losses within each type given information known at the time.

The above figures act as the beginning for the allocation of overall allowances. Additional changes have been made in the allocation of the allowance to address unknowns and contingent items. The unallocated portion is not computed using a specific formula and is the Company’s best estimate of what should be allocated for contingencies in the current portfolio.

Non-Interest Income

2009 Compared to 2008

Non-interest income decreased 6.19%, or $167,000 from 2009 to 2008.

Of this decrease, a large portion related to the recording of non-recurring income items in 2009 as compared to 2008. Further discussions of non-recurring income, net of non-recurring losses, for 2009 as compared to 2008, is found in the overview section above. In addition, the increases in non-recurring income items, slight decreases in service charges on deposit accounts and life insurance investment income comprise the largest portion of the decrease in non-interest income.

Service charges on deposit accounts decreased 1.60% from 2008 to 2009 as customers became more fee conscious of costs related to non-sufficient funds charges. During the latter part of 2007, The Grant County Bank implemented what is commonly referred to as a “courtesy overdraft” program which led to increases in service charges on deposit accounts in 2008 and 2007. This income has now stabilized and is not expected to increase at the rate previously experienced.

Earnings on life insurance investment income decreased $48,000 from 2008 to 2009. This income is tied to the Company’s investments in life insurance contracts as explained in Note Twenty of the consolidated financial statements.

Net insurance earnings and commissions decreased $59,000 from 2008 to 2009. Insurance earnings for the Company consist of commissions earned by the subsidiary banks on life and accident and health insurance sold in relation to the extension of credit and insurance revenues, net of benefits paid, expense allowances and policy and claim reserves earned by the life insurance subsidiary. As the Company’s balances of installment loans and the new volume of installment loans, which are primary markets for credit life and accident and health insurance, have decreased over the past several years, gross revenues from insurance earnings have decreased. In relation to this decrease, required policy reserves have also declined. The table below illustrates the components of insurance commissions and income for 2008 and 2009 (in thousands of dollars).

Non-interest Expense

2009 compared to 2008

Non-interest expense increased 5.55% in 2009 as compared to 2008.

Changes in salary and benefits expense

The following table compares the components of salary and benefits expense for the twelve month periods ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 (in thousands of dollars):

Salary and Benefits Expense
	2009		2008		Increase (Decrease)

Post retirement plans		803		866		(63	)
Total	$	6,574	$	6,288	$	286

The table below illustrates the change in salary expense between 2009 compared to salary expense for 2008 occurring because of increases in average pay per employee and increases in the average number of full time employees (in thousands of dollars):

	Amount
Changes due to increase in average cost per full time equivalent employee	$	443
Changes due to decrease in the average full time equivalent employees for the periods		(198	)
Total increase in salary expense	$	245

Increases in average cost per full-time employee are primarily due to merit pay increases in non-executive compensation as well as an increase in benefit expense.

Changes in data processing expense

Data processing expense decreased 19.24%. The Company has moved toward increased electronic transfer of information between branch locations, converted to a different outsourced system and centralized data processing locations. Data processing costs have been significantly reduced for 2009 as compared to 2008 as a result of a $10,000 data processing monthly credit from the vendor that expired at the end of November 2009. Excluding this credit data processing expense decreased 6.18% from 2008 to 2009.

Changes in occupancy and equipment expense

The following table illustrates the components of occupancy and equipment expense for the twelve month periods ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 (in thousands of dollars):

Total occupancy and equipment expense	$	1,385	$	1,418	$	(33	)

Changes in miscellaneous non-interest expense

Directors fees increased by 13.20% during 2009 due primarily to an increase in the overall rate paid per meeting attended. Legal and professional fees decreased slightly by $8,000 or 1.72% from 2008 to 2009. The table below illustrates components of other non interest expense for 2009 and 2008 (in thousands of dollars). The primary driver of the increase in miscellaneous non-interest expense is related to the $499,000 or 648.05% increase in FDIC premiums for 2009 compared to 2008. Significant other non-interest expense are in the following table:

Securities Portfolio

The Company's securities portfolio serves several purposes. Portions of the portfolio are used to secure certain public deposits. The remaining portfolio is held as investments or used to assist the Company in liquidity and asset liability management. Total securities, including restricted securities, represented 7.14% of total assets and 70.30% of total shareholders’ equity at December 31, 2009.

The securities portfolio typically will consist of three components: securities held to maturity, securities available for sale and restricted securities. Securities are classified as held to maturity when the Company has the intent and the ability at the time of purchase to hold the securities to maturity. Held to maturity securities are carried at cost, adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. Securities to be held for indefinite periods of time are classified as available for sale and accounted for at market value. Securities available for sale include securities that may be sold in response to changes in market interest rates, changes in the security's prepayment risk, increases in loan demand, general liquidity needs and other similar factors. Restricted securities are those investments purchased as a requirement of membership in certain governmental lending institutions and cannot be transferred without the issuer’s permission. The Company's purchases of securities have generally been limited to securities of high credit quality with short to medium term maturities.

The Company identifies at the time of acquisition those securities that are available for sale. These securities are valued at their market value with any difference in market value and amortized cost shown as an adjustment in stockholders' equity. Changes within the year in market values are reflected as changes in other comprehensive income, net of the deferred tax effect. As of December 31, 2009, the fair value of the securities available for sale exceed their cost basis by $513,000 ($323,000 after tax effect of $190,000).

The table below summarizes the carrying value of the Company’s securities at December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007 (in thousands of dollars):

	Available for Sale Carrying Value December 31,

Yields on tax exempt securities are stated at actual yields.

Any changes in market values of securities deemed by management to be attributable to reasons other than changes in market rates of interest would be recorded through results of operations. It is the Company’s determination that all securities held at December 31, 2009 which have fair values less than the amortized cost, have these gross unrealized losses related to increases in the current interest rates for similar issues of securities, and that no material impairment for any securities in the portfolio exists because of downgrades of the securities or as a result of a change in the financial condition of any of the issuers. A summary of the length of time of unrealized losses for all securities held at December 31, 2009 can be found in the footnotes to the consolidated financial statements. The Company reviews all securities with unrealized losses, and all securities in the portfolio on a regular basis to determine whether the potential for other than temporary impairment exists. One of the criteria for making this determination is the rating given to each bond by the major ratings agencies Moodys and Standard & Poors.

A summary of the Company’s securities portfolio at December 31, 2009, based on the ratings of the securities in the portfolio given by these ratings agencies is shown below (in thousands of dollars):

Deposits

The Company's primary source of funds is local deposits. The Company's deposit base is comprised of demand deposits, savings and money market accounts and other time deposits. The majority of the Company's deposits are provided by individuals and businesses located within the communities served.

Total balances of deposits increased 10.62% from December 31, 2008 to December 31, 2009.

Debt Instruments

Long-Term Borrowings

The Company borrows funds from the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) to reduce market rate risks or to provide operating liquidity. The Company typically will initiate these borrowings in response to a specific need for managing market risks or for a specific liquidity need and will attempt to match features of these borrowings to best suit the specific need. Therefore, the borrowings on the Company’s balance sheet as of December 31, 2009 and throughout the twelve month period ended December 31, 2009 have varying features of amortization or single payment with periodic, regular interest payment and also have interest rates which vary based on the terms and on the features of the specific borrowing. More information regarding the Company’s FHLB advances can be found in Note Thirteen of the consolidated financial statements.

Short-Term Borrowings

As it becomes necessary for short-term liquidity needs and when beneficial for assisting in managing profitability the Company will periodically utilize either the FHLB or other available credit facilities for overnight or other short term borrowings. The use of short-term debt instruments is not a frequently utilized borrowing mechanism of the Company; however, during the third and fourth quarters of 2008, circumstances prescribed use of these borrowing facilities. At December 31, 2009, the Company had no balance in overnight and other short-term borrowings.

Capital Resources

The assessment of capital adequacy depends on a number of factors such as asset quality, liquidity, earnings performance and changing competitive conditions and economic forces. The Company seeks to maintain a strong capital base to support growth and expansion activities, to provide stability to current operations, and to promote public confidence.

The Company's capital position continues to exceed regulatory minimums. The primary indicators relied on by the Federal Reserve Board and other bank regulators in measuring strength of capital position are the Tier 1 Capital, Total Capital and Leverage ratios. Tier 1 Capital consists of common stockholders' equity adjusted for unrealized gains and losses on securities. Total Capital consists of Tier 1 Capital and a portion of the allowance for loan losses. Risk-based capital ratios are calculated with reference to risk-weighted assets, which consist of both on and off-balance sheet risks.

The capital management function is an ongoing process. The Company looks first and foremost to maintain capital levels adequate to satisfy regulatory requirements through earnings retention. The maintenance of capital adequacy is weighed against the management of capital for satisfactory return on equity, typically via use of dividends and/or share repurchases. During 2009, the Company’s capital position increased by $2,023,000 versus a decrease of $1,194,000 during 2008 when the Company purchased treasury stock of $3,372,000. The return on average equity was 8.33% in 2009 compared to 12.38% for 2008. Total cash dividends declared represent 46.19% of net income for 2009

Index

compared to 30.12% for 2008. Book value per share was $30.98 at December 31, 2009 compared to $29.47 at December 31, 2008.

Liquidity

Operating liquidity is the ability to meet present and future financial obligations. Short-term liquidity is provided primarily through cash balances, deposits with other financial institutions, federal funds sold, non-pledged securities and loans maturing within one year. Additional sources of liquidity available to the Company include, but are not limited to, loan repayments, the ability to obtain deposits through the adjustment of interest rates and the purchasing of federal funds. To further meet its liquidity needs, the Company also maintains lines of credit with correspondent financial institutions, the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond, and the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh.

Historically, the Company’s primary need for additional levels of operational liquidity has been to fund increases in loan balances. The Company has normally funded increases in loans by increasing deposits and balances of borrowed funds and decreases in secondary liquidity sources such as balances of federal funds sold and balances of securities. The Company maintains credit facilities which are typically sufficient to adequately fulfill any short-term liquidity needs, and management of deposit balances and long term borrowings are utilized for longer term liquidity management. Increases in liquidity requirements may cause the Company to offer above market rates on deposit products to attract new depositors, which would impact the Company’s net interest income.

The Company’s operating funds, funds with which to pay shareholder dividends and funds for the exploration of new business ventures have been supplied primarily through dividends paid by the Company’s two subsidiary Banks, Capon Valley Bank and The Grant County Bank. The various regulatory authorities impose restrictions on dividends paid by a state bank. A state bank cannot pay dividends without the consent of the relevant banking authorities in excess of the total net profits of the current year and the combined retained profits of the previous two years. As of December 31, 2009, the subsidiary Banks could pay dividends to the Company of approximately $4,973,000 without permission of the regulatory authorities.

Effects of Inflation

Inflation primarily affects industries having high levels of property, plant and equipment or inventories. Although the Company is not significantly affected in these areas, inflation does have an impact on the growth of assets. As assets grow rapidly, it becomes necessary to increase equity capital at proportionate levels to maintain the appropriate equity to asset ratios. Traditionally, the Company's earnings and high capital retention levels have enabled the Company to meet these needs.

The Company's reported earnings results have been minimally affected by inflation. The different types of income and expense are affected in various ways. Interest rates are affected by inflation, but the timing and magnitude of the changes may not coincide with changes in the consumer price index. The Company actively monitors interest rate sensitivity in order to minimize the effects of inflationary trends on interest rates. Other areas of non-interest expenses may be more directly affected by inflation.

NOTE ONE: SUMMARY OF OPERATIONS

Highlands Bankshares, Inc. (the "Company") is a bank holding company and operates under a charter issued by the State of West Virginia. The Company owns all of the outstanding stock of The Grant County Bank ("Grant") and Capon Valley Bank ("Capon"), which operate under charters issued by the State of West Virginia. The Company also owns all of the outstanding stock of HBI Life Insurance Company, Inc. ("HBI Life"), which operates under a charter issued by the State of Arizona. State chartered banks are subject to regulation by the West Virginia Division of Banking, The Federal Reserve Bank and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, while the insurance company is regulated by the Arizona Department of Insurance. The Banks provide services to customers located mainly in Grant, Hardy, Hampshire, Mineral, Pendleton, Randolph and Tucker counties of West Virginia, including the towns of Petersburg, Keyser, Moorefield, Davis and Wardensville through ten locations and in the county of Frederick in Virginia through a single location. The insurance company sells life and accident coverage exclusively through the Company's subsidiary Banks.

NOTE TWO: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accounting and reporting policies of Highlands Bankshares, Inc. and its subsidiaries conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and to accepted practice within the banking industry.

(a)	Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of The Grant County Bank, Capon Valley Bank and HBI Life Insurance Company. During 2005, the Company purchased all of the outstanding shares of The National Bank of Davis (“Davis”) and these operations are included subsequent to the purchase. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

(b)	Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

In preparing the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the balance sheet and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. A material estimate that is particularly susceptible to significant changes in the near term is the determination of the allowance for loan losses, which is sensitive to changes in local economic conditions.

(c)	Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and non-interest bearing funds at correspondent institutions.

(d)	Foreclosed Real Estate

The components of foreclosed real estate are adjusted to the fair value of the property at the time of acquisition, less estimated costs of disposal. The current year provision for a valuation allowance has been recorded as an expense to current operations.

(e)

Loans

Loans are carried on the balance sheet net of unearned interest and allowance for loan losses. Interest income on loans is determined using the effective interest method based on the daily amount of principal outstanding except where serious doubt exists as to collectability of the loan, in which case the accrual of income is discontinued. Loans are placed on non-accrual status or charged off if collection of principal or interest becomes doubtful. The interest on these loans is accounted for on a cash-basis or cost-recovery method until qualifying for return to accrual status. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and the loan is performing as agreed.

Index

(f)	Securities

Securities that the Company has both the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity (at time of purchase) are classified as held to maturity securities. All other securities are classified as available for sale. Securities held to maturity are carried at historical cost and adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts, using the effective interest method. Securities available for sale are carried at fair value with any valuation adjustments reported, net of deferred taxes, as other accumulated comprehensive income.

Restricted investments consist of investments in the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh, the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond and West Virginia Bankers’ Title Insurance Company. Such investments are required as members of these institutions and these investments cannot be sold without a change in the members' borrowing or service levels. Because there is no readily determinable market value for these investments, restricted investments are carried at cost on the Company’s balance sheet.

Interest and dividends on securities and amortization of premiums and discounts on securities are reported as interest income using the effective interest method. Gains (losses) realized on sales and calls of securities are determined using the specific identification method.

(g)	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 allowance for loan losses is evaluated on a regular basis by management and is based upon management’s periodic review of the collectability of the loans in light of historical experience, the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying collateral and prevailing economic conditions. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available.

The allowance for loan losses includes two basic components: estimated credit losses on individually evaluated loans that are determined to be impaired (allocated component) and estimated credit losses inherent in the remainder of the loan portfolio (general component). For those loans that are classified as impaired, an allowance is established when the discounted cash flows (or collateral value or observable market price) of the impaired loan is lower than the carrying value of that loan. The general component covers nonclassifed loans and is based on historical charge-off experience and expected loss given default derived from each subsidiary banks internal risk rating process. Other adjustments may be made to the allowance for pools of loans after an assessment of internal or external influences on credit quality that are not fully reflected in the historical loss or risk rating data.

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 payment 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 borrower’s prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed.

Index

All other loans, including individually evaluated loans determined not to be impaired, are included in a group of loans that are measured under the general component of the allowance for loan losses to provide for estimated credit losses that have been incurred on groups of loans with similar risk characteristics. The methodology for measuring estimated credit losses on groups of loans with similar risk characteristics is based on each group’s historical net charge-off rate, adjusted for the effects of the qualitative or environmental factors that are likely to cause estimated credit losses as of the evaluation date to differ from the group’s historical loss experience.

(h)	Per Share Calculations

Earnings per share are based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding.

(i)	Bank Premises and Equipment

Land is carried at cost. Bank premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Assets acquired in the acquisition of Davis have been recorded at their fair value. Depreciation is charged to income over the estimated useful lives of the assets using a combination of the straight line and accelerated methods. The costs of maintenance, repairs, renewals, and improvements to buildings, equipment and furniture and fixtures are charged to operations as incurred. Gains and losses on routine dispositions are reflected in other income or expense.

(j)	Comprehensive Income

Accounting principles generally require that recognized revenue, expenses, gains and losses be included in net income. Certain changes in assets and liabilities, such as unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities and accrued pension liabilities, are reported along with net income as the components of comprehensive income.

(k)	Bank Owned Life Insurance Contracts

The Company has invested in and owns life insurance policies on certain officers. The policies are designed so that the Company recovers the interest expenses associated with carrying the policies and the officer will, at the time of retirement, receive any earnings in excess of the amounts earned by the Company. The Company recognizes as an asset the net amount that could be realized under the insurance contract as of the balance sheet date. This amount represents the cash surrender value of the policies less applicable surrender charges. The portion of the benefits which will be received by the executives at the time of their retirement is considered, when taken collectively, to constitute a retirement plan. Authoritative accounting guidance requires that an employers' obligation under a deferred compensation agreement be accrued over the expected service life of the employee through their normal retirement date. Assumptions are used in estimating the present value of amounts due officers after their normal retirement date. These assumptions include the estimated income to be derived from the investments and an estimate of the Company’s cost of funds in these future periods. In addition, the discount rate used in the present value calculation will change in future years based on market conditions.

(l)	Advertising

Advertising costs are expensed as they are incurred. Advertising expense for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 was $159,000 and $ 189,000, respectively.

(m)	Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

In accordance with authoritative accounting guidance, goodwill is not amortized over an estimated useful life, but rather will be tested at least annually for impairment. Core deposit and other intangible assets include premiums paid for acquisitions of core deposits (core deposit intangibles) and other identifiable intangible assets. Intangible assets other than goodwill, which are determined to have finite lives, are amortized based upon the estimated economic benefits received.

Core deposit and other intangible assets include premiums paid for acquisitions of core deposits (core deposit intangibles) and other identifiable intangible assets related to business acquisitions. In addition to the intangible

Index

assets associated with the purchase of banking organizations, the Company also carries intangible assets related to the purchase of certain naming rights to a performing arts center in Petersburg, WV.

Intangible assets other than goodwill, which are determined to have finite lives, are amortized based upon the estimated economic benefits received, which is ten years for the core deposit intangibles.

(n)	Income Taxes

Amounts provided for income tax expense are based on income reported for financial statement purposes rather than amounts currently payable under federal and state tax laws. Deferred taxes, which arise principally from differences between the period in which certain income and expenses are recognized for financial accounting purposes and the period in which they affect taxable income, are included in the amounts provided for income taxes.

When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely to be realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above would be reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheet along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination.

Interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits would be classified as additional income taxes in the statement of income.

At December 31, 2009 there was no liability for unrecognized tax benefits.

(o)	Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period balances to conform with the current year’s presentation format.

(p)	Recent Accounting Standards

Adoption of New Accounting Standards

In June 2009, FASB issued new accounting guidance related to U.S. GAAP (FASB ASC 105, Generally Accepted Accounting Principles). This guidance establishes FASB ASC as the source of authoritative U.S. GAAP recognized by FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities. Rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative U.S. GAAP for SEC registrants. FASB ASC supersedes all existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. All other nongrandfathered, non-SEC accounting literature not included in FASB ASC has become nonauthoritative. FASB will no longer issue new standards in the form of Statements, FASB Staff Positions or Emerging Issues Task Force Abstracts. Instead, it will issue Accounting Standards Updates (ASUs), which will serve to update FASB ASC, provide background information about the guidance and provide the basis for conclusions on the changes to FASB ASC. FASB ASC is not intended to change U.S. GAAP or any requirements of the SEC.

The Company adopted new guidance impacting Financial Accounting Standards Board Topic 805: Business Combinations (Topic 805) on January 1, 2009. This guidance requires the acquiring entity in a business combination to recognize the full fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the transaction (whether a full or partial acquisition); establishes the acquisition-date fair value as the measurement objective for all assets acquired and liabilities assumed; requires expensing of most transaction and restructuring costs; and requires the acquirer to disclose to investors and other users all of the information needed to evaluate and

Index

understand the nature and financial effect of the business combination. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In April 2009, the FASB issued new guidance impacting Topic 805. This guidance addresses application issues raised by preparers, auditors, and members of the legal profession on initial recognition and measurement, subsequent measurement and accounting, and disclosure of assets and liabilities arising from contingencies in a business combination. This guidance was effective for business combinations entered into on or after January 1, 2009. This guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In December 2008, the FASB issued new guidance impacting FASB Topic 715-20: Compensation Retirement Benefits – Defined Benefit Plans – General. The objectives of this guidance are to provide users of the financial statements with more detailed information related to the major categories of plan assets, the inputs and valuation techniques used to measure the fair value of plan assets and the effect of fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) on changes in plan assets for the period, as well as how investment allocation decisions are made, including the factors that are pertinent to an understanding of investment policies and strategies. The disclosures about plan assets required by this guidance are included in Note 15 of the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In April 2009, the FASB issued new guidance impacting FASB Topic 820: Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820). This interpretation provides additional guidance for estimating fair value when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased. This also includes guidance on identifying circumstances that indicate a transaction is not orderly and requires additional disclosures of valuation inputs and techniques in interim periods and defines the major security types that are required to be disclosed. This guidance was effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009, and should be applied prospectively. The adoption of the standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In April 2009, the FASB issued new guidance impacting FASB Topic 320-10: Investments – Debt and Equity Securities. This guidance amends GAAP for debt securities to make the guidance more operational and to improve the presentation and disclosure of other-than-temporary impairments on debt and equity securities in the financial statements. This guidance was effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009, with earlier adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. The Company did not have any cumulative effect adjustment related to the adoption of this guidance.

In May 2009, the FASB issued new guidance impacting FASB Topic 855: Subsequent Events. This update provides guidance on management’s assessment of subsequent events that occur after the balance sheet date through the date that the financial statements are issued. This guidance is generally consistent with current accounting practice. In addition, it requires certain additional disclosures. This guidance was effective for periods ending after June 15, 2009 and had no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In August 2009, the FASB issued new guidance impacting Topic 820. This guidance is intended to reduce ambiguity in financial reporting when measuring the fair value of liabilities. This guidance was effective for the first reporting period (including interim periods) after issuance and had no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In September 2009, the FASB issued new guidance impacting Topic 820. This creates a practical expedient to measure the fair value of an alternative investment that does not have a readily determinable fair value. This guidance also requires certain additional disclosures. This guidance is effective for interim and annual periods ending after December 15, 2009. Adoption of the standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements

In October 2009, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Release No. 33-99072, Internal Control over Financial Reporting in Exchange Act Periodic Reports of Non-Accelerated Filers. Release No. 33-99072 delays the requirement for non-accelerated filers to include an attestation report of their independent auditor on internal control over financial reporting with their annual report until the fiscal year ending on or after June 15, 2010.

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-02, Consolidation (Topic 810): Accounting and reporting for Decreases in Ownership of a Subsidiary – a Scope Clarification. ASU 2010-02 amends Subtopic 810-10 to address implementation issues related to changes in ownership provisions including clarifying the scope of the

Index

decrease in ownership and additional disclosures. ASU 2010-02 is effective beginning in the period that an entity adopts Statement 160. If an entity has previously adopted Statement 160, ASU 2010-02 is effective beginning in the first interim or annual reporting period ending on or after December 15, 2009 and should be applied retrospectively to the first period Statement 160 was adopted. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2010-02 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Accounting Standards Not Yet Effective

In June 2009, the FASB issued new guidance relating to the accounting for transfers of financial assets. The new guidance, which was issued as SFAS No. 166, Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets, an amendment to SFAS No. 140, was adopted into Codification in December 2009 through the issuance of Accounting Standards Updated (ASU) 2009-16. The new standard provides guidance to improve the relevance, representational faithfulness, and comparability of the information that an entity provides in its financial statements about a transfer of financial assets; the effects of a transfer on its financial position, financial performance, and cash flows; and a transferor’s continuing involvement, if any, in transferred financial assets. The Company will adopt the new guidance in 2010 and is evaluating the impact it will have, if any, on its consolidated financial statements.

In June 2009, the FASB issued new guidance relating to the variable interest entities. The new guidance, which was issued as SFAS No. 167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R), was adopted into Codification in December 2009. The objective of the guidance is to improve financial reporting by enterprises involved with variable interest entities and to provide more relevant and reliable information to users of financial statements. SFAS No. 167 is effective as of January 1, 2010. The Company does not expect the adoption of the new guidance to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-15, Accounting for Own-Share Lending Arrangements in Contemplation of Convertible Debt Issuance or Other Financing. ASU 2009-15 amends Subtopic 470-20 to expand accounting and reporting guidance for own-share lending arrangements issued in contemplation of convertible debt issuance. ASU 2009-15 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2009 and interim periods within those fiscal years for arrangements outstanding as of the beginning of those fiscal years. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2009-15 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-04, Accounting for Various Topics – Technical Corrections to SEC Paragraphs. ASU 2010-04 makes technical corrections to existing SEC guidance including the following topics: accounting for subsequent investments, termination of an interest rate swap, issuance of financial statements - subsequent events, use of residential method to value acquired assets other than goodwill, adjustments in assets and liabilities for holding gains and losses, and selections of discount rate used for measuring defined benefit obligation. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2010-04 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-05, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Escrowed Share Arrangements and the Presumption of Compensation. ASU 2010-05 updates existing guidance to address the SEC staff’s views on overcoming the presumption that for certain shareholders escrowed share arrangements represent compensation. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2010-05 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-06, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements. ASU 2010-06 amends Subtopic 820-10 to clarify existing disclosures, require new disclosures, and includes conforming amendments to guidance on employers’ disclosures about postretirement benefit plan assets. ASU 2010-06 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010 and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2010-06 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-08, Technical Corrections to Various Topics. ASU 2010-08 clarifies guidance on embedded derivatives and hedging. ASU 2010-08 is effective for interim and annual

Index

periods beginning after December 15, 2009. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2010-08 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

No other recent accounting pronouncements had a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, and it is believed that none will have a material impact on the Company’s operations in future years.

It is management’s determination that all securities held at December 31, 2009, which have fair values less than the amortized cost, have gross unrealized losses related to increases in the current interest rates for similar issues of securities, and that no material impairment for any securities in the portfolio exists because of downgrades of the securities or as a result of a change in the financial condition of any of the issuers.

NOTE FOUR: RESTRICTED INVESTMENTS

Restricted investments consist of investments in the Federal Home Loan Bank, the Federal Reserve Bank and West Virginia Bankers’ Title Insurance Company. Investments are carried at face value and the level of investment is dictated by the level of participation with each institution. Amounts are restricted as to transferability. Investments in the Federal Home Loan Bank act as a collateral against the outstanding borrowings from that institution.

NOTE NINE: RESTRICTIONS ON DIVIDENDS OF SUBSIDIARY BANKS

The principal source of funds of the Company is dividends paid by its subsidiary Banks. The various regulatory authorities impose restrictions on dividends paid by a state bank. A state bank cannot pay dividends (without the consent of state banking authorities) in excess of the total net profits (net income less dividends paid) of the current year to date and the combined retained profits of the previous two years. As of December 31, 2009, the Banks could pay dividends to the Company of approximately $4,973,000 without permission of the regulatory authorities.

NOTE TEN: DEPOSITS

At December 31, 2009, the scheduled maturities of time deposits were as follows (in thousands of dollars):

Year	Amount Maturing
2010	$	137,548
2011		58,643
2012		15,998
2013		7,057
2014		5,100
2015		100
Total	$	224,446

Interest expense on time deposits of $100,000 and over aggregated $2,404,000 and $2,678,000 for 2009 and 2008, respectively.

The aggregate amount of demand deposit overdrafts reclassified as loan balances were $290,000 and $175,000 at December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

NOTE ELEVEN: CONCENTRATIONS

The Banks grant commercial, residential real estate and consumer loans to customers located primarily in the eastern portion of the State of West Virginia. Although the Banks have a diversified loan portfolio, a substantial portion of the debtors' ability to honor their contracts is dependent upon the agribusiness, mining, trucking and logging sectors. Collateral required by the Banks is determined on an individual basis depending on the purpose of the loan and the financial condition of the borrower. The ultimate collectibility of the loan portfolios is susceptible to changes in local economic conditions. Of the $335,482,000 and $325,754,000 loans held by the Company at December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, $274,610,000 and $261,289,000 are secured by real estate.

The Company’s subsidiaries had cash deposited in and federal funds sold to other commercial banks totaling $10,886,000 and $764,000 at December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Deposits with other correspondent banks are generally unsecured and have limited insurance under current banking insurance regulations, which management considers to be a normal business risk.

Index

NOTE TWELVE: TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES

During the year, officers and directors (and companies controlled by them) of the Company and subsidiary Banks were customers of and had transactions with the subsidiary Banks in the normal course of business. These transactions were made on substantially the same terms as those prevailing for other customers and did not involve any abnormal risk. The table below summarizes changes to balances of loans and to unused commitments to related parties during the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 (in thousands of dollars):

	2009			2008
Loans to related parties, beginning of year	$	8,384		$	5,236
New loans		809			3,989
Repayments		(881	)		(841	)
Loans to related parties, end of year	$	8,312		$	8,384

At December 31, 2009, deposits of related parties including directors, executive officers, and their related interests of the Company and subsidiaries approximated $8,138,000, and at December 31, 2008, deposits of related parties including directors, executive officers, and their related interests of the Company and subsidiaries approximated $7,474,000.

NOTE THIRTEEN: DEBT INSTRUMENTS

The Company has borrowed money from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh (FHLB). This debt consists of both borrowings with terms of maturities of six months or greater and also certain debts with maturities of thirty days or less.

The borrowings with long term maturities may have either single payment maturities or amortize. The various borrowings mature from 2010 to 2020. The interest rates on the various borrowings at December 31, 2009 range from 3.94% to 5.96%. The weighted average interest rate on the borrowings at December 31, 2009 was 4.61%. Repayments of long-term debt are due monthly, quarterly or in a single payment at maturity. The maturities of long-term debt as of December 31, 2009 are as follows (in thousands of dollars):

Year	Balance
2010	$	1,473
2011		1,255
2012		5,695
2013		289
2014		622
Thereafter		1,532
Total	$	10,866

In addition to utilization of the FHLB for borrowings of long term debt, the Company also can utilize the FHLB for overnight and other short term borrowings; however, at December 31, 2009, the Company had no balances in overnight and other short term borrowings. The Company has total borrowing capacity from the FHLB of $151,757,000. The Banks have pledged mortgage loans as collateral on the FHLB borrowings in the approximate amount of $151,914,000 at December 31, 2009.

The subsidiary Banks also have short term borrowing capacity from each of their respective correspondent banks. As of December 31, 2009 the Company has total borrowing capacity from its correspondent banks of $13,200,000. The interest rates on these lines are variable and are subject to change daily based on current market conditions.

Index

NOTE FOURTEEN: INCOME TAX EXPENSE

The Company files an income tax return in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and an income tax return in the State of West Virginia. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state or local income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2006.

Included in the balance sheet at December 31, 2009 are tax positions related to loan charge offs for which the ultimate deductibility is highly certain but for which there is uncertainty about the timing of such deductibility. Because of the impact of deferred tax accounting, other than interest and penalties, the disallowance of the shorter deductibility period would not affect the annual effective tax rate but would accelerate the payment of cash to the taxing authority to an earlier period.

The components of income tax expense for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 are summarized in the table on the following page (in thousands of dollars):

	2009		2008

NOTE FIFTEEN: EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

In addition to an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP), which provides stock ownership to all employees of the Company, the Company’s two subsidiary Banks, The Grant County Bank (Grant) and Capon Valley Bank (Capon) have separate retirement and profit sharing plans which cover substantially all full time employees at each Bank. A summary of the employee benefits provided by each Bank is provided below. The Company’s ESOP plan provides stock ownership to all employees of the Company. The Plan provides total vesting upon the attainment of seven years of service. Contributions to the plan are made at the discretion of the board of directors and are allocated based on the compensation of each employee relative to total compensation paid by the Company. All shares held by the Plan are considered outstanding in the computation of earnings per share. Shares of Company stock, when distributed, will have restrictions on transferability. Certain executives of both Grant and Capon have post retirement benefits related to the Banks’ investment in life insurance policies (see Note Twenty). Expenses related to all retirement benefit plans charged to operations totaled $803,000 in 2009 and $866,000 in 2008.

Index

Capon Valley Bank

Capon has a defined contribution pension plan with 401(k) features that is funded with discretionary contributions. Capon matches on a limited basis the contributions of the employees. Investment of employee balances is done through the direction of each employee. Employer contributions are vested over a six-year period.

The Grant County Bank

Grant is a member of the West Virginia Bankers’ Association Retirement Plan (the “Plan”). This Plan is a defined benefit plan with benefits under the Plan based on compensation and years of service with full vesting after seven years of service. Prior to 2002, the Plan’s assets were in excess of the projected benefit obligations and thus Grant was not required to make contributions to the Plan. Since 2004, Grant has been required to make contributions; however no contribution is expected in 2010. At December 31, 2009, Grant has recognized liabilities of $1,278,000 relating to unfunded pension liabilities. As a result of the Plan’s inability to meet expected returns in recent years, a portion of this liability is reflected as a decrease in other comprehensive income of $1,338,000 (net of $786,000 tax benefit).

The following table provides a reconciliation of the changes in the Plan’s obligations and fair value of assets as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 using a measurement date of December 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008 respectively (in thousands of dollars):

The weighted average assumption used in the measurement of Grant’s benefit obligation and net periodic pension expense is as follows:

	2009			2008
Discount rate		6.25	%		6.25	%
Expected return on plan assets		8.00	%		8.00	%
Rate of compensation increase		3.00	%		3.00	%

The plan sponsor estimates the expected long-term rate of return on assets in consultation with their advisors and the plan actuary. This rate is intended to reflect the average rate of earnings expected to be earned on the funds invested or to be invested to provide plan benefits. Historical performance is reviewed, especially with respect to real rate of return (net of inflation) for the major asset classes held or anticipated to be held by the trust. Undue weight is not given to recent experience, which may not continue over the measurement period, with higher significance placed on current forecasts of future long-term economic conditions.

The following table provides the pension plan’s asset allocation as of December 31, 2009 and 2008:

	2009			2008
Equity Securities		63	%		64	%
Debt Securities		32	%		30	%
Other		5	%		6	%

Index

The trust fund is sufficiently diversified to maintain a reasonable level of risk without imprudently sacrificing return. The targeted asset allocation and allowable range of allocation is set forth in the table below:

	Target Allocation			Allowable Allocation Range
Equity Securities		70	%		40%-80	%
Debt Securities		25	%		20%-40	%
Other		5	%		3%-10	%

The Investment Manager selects investment fund managers with demonstrated experience and expertise, and funds with demonstrated historical performance, for the implementation of the Plan’s investment strategy. The Investment Manager will consider both actively and passively managed investment strategies and will allocate funds across the asset classes to develop an efficient investment structure.

The Grant County Bank also maintains a profit sharing plan covering substantially all employees to which contributions are made at the discretion of the board of directors. Portions of employer contributions to this plan are, at individual employees’ discretion, available to employees as immediate cash payment while portions are allocated for deferred payment to the employee. The portions of the plan contribution by the employer which are allocated for deferred payment to the employee are vested over a five year period.

Fair Value

The fair value of the Company’s pension plan assets at December 31, 2009, by asset category is as follows:

NOTE SIXTEEN: COMMITMENTS AND GUARANTEES

The Banks make commitments to extend credit in the normal course of business and issue standby letters of credit to meet the financing needs of their customers. The amount of the commitments represents the Banks' exposure to credit loss that is not included in the balance sheet.

The Banks use the same credit policies in making commitments and issuing letters of credit as used for the loans reflected in the balance sheet. 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 Banks evaluate each customer's creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Banks upon the extension of credit, is based on management's credit evaluation of the borrower. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment.

Index

As of December 31, 2009 and 2008, the Banks had outstanding the following commitments (in thousands of dollars):

	2009		2008
Commitments to extend credit	$	16,289	$	24,204

NOTE EIGHTEEN: ADJUSTMENT TO RETAINED EARNINGS FOR CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLE

In 2006, the FASB issued pronouncements that require companies which own life insurance policies insuring employees and for which the employees receive a portion of the death benefits of the policies (commonly referred to as “split dollar” policies) and for which these death benefits to the employee continue post retirement record a liability for the present value of the cost of these post retirement death benefits. These pronouncements became effective for the Company on January 1, 2008.

These pronouncements provided an option for affected companies to record the resulting liability as a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings at the beginning of the period in which recorded or to record through retrospective application to prior periods. The Company opted to record the liability as a cumulative effect adjustment to prior period retained earnings and as such recorded a liability and corresponding reduction of prior period retained earnings of $348,000. There is no corresponding deferred tax consequence relating to this liability. The recording of the cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings is reflected in the December 31, 2008 balance of retained earnings and is shown as an adjustment to retained earnings in the Consolidated Statements of Stockholders’ Equity.

NOTE NINETEEN: FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company uses fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures. In accordance with the authoritative accounting guidance regarding fair value measurements and disclosures, the fair value of a financial instrument is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value is best determined based on quoted market prices. However, in the event there are no quoted market prices are available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques. Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future

Index

cash flows. Accordingly, the fair value estimates may not be realized in an immediate settlement of the instrument.

The recent fair value guidance provides a consistent definition of fair value, which focuses on exit price in an orderly transaction (that is, not a forced liquidation or distressed sale) between market participants as the measurement date under current market conditions. If there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability, a change in valuation technique or the use of multiple valuation techniques may be appropriate. In such instances, determining the price at which willing market participants would transact at the measurement date under current market conditions depends on the facts and circumstances and requires the use of significant judgment. The fair value is a reasonable amount within the range that is most representative of fair value under current market conditions.

In accordance with this guidance, the Company groups its financial assets and liabilities generally measured at fair value in three levels, based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value. The three levels are defined as follow:

Level One: Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level Two: Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

Level Three: Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value on the Company’s balance sheet, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy:

Securities

Where quoted prices are available in an active market, securities are classified within level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. Level 1 securities would include highly liquid government bonds, mortgage products and exchange traded equities. If quoted market prices are not available, then fair values are estimated by using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics, or discounted cash flow. Level 2 securities would include U.S. agency securities, mortgage-backed agency securities, obligations of states and political subdivisions and certain corporate, asset backed and other securities. In certain cases where there is limited activity or less transparency around inputs to the valuation, securities are classified within level 3 of the valuation hierarchy. Currently, all of the Company’s securities are considered to be Level 2 securities.

Impaired Loans

The fair value measurement guidance applies to loans measured for impairment using the practical expedients permitted by authoritative accounting guidance, including impaired loans measured at an observable market price (if available), or at the fair value of the loan’s collateral (if the loan is collateral dependent). Fair value of the loan’s collateral, when the loan is dependent on collateral, is determined by appraisals or independent valuation which is then adjusted for the cost related to liquidation of the collateral. At December 31, 2009, the Company had identified $2,763,000 in impaired loans net of allowance for impairments (see Note Five).

Other Real Estate Owned

Certain assets such as other real estate owned (OREO) are measured at fair value. Real estate acquired through foreclosure are recorded at an estimated fair value less cost to sell. At or near the time of foreclosure, a real estate appraisal is obtained on the properties. The real estate is then valued at the lesser of the appraised value or the loan balance, including interest receivable, at the time of foreclosure less an estimate of costs to sell the property. Appraised values are typically determined utilizing an income or market valuation approach based on an appraisal conducted by an independent, licensed appraiser (Level 2). If the acquired property is a house or building in the process of construction or if an appraisal of the real estate property is over two years old, the fair value is considered Level 3. The estimate of costs to sell the property is based on historical transactions of similar holdings.

Index

The Company, at December 31, 2009, had no liabilities subject to fair value reporting requirements. The tables below summarizes assets at December 31, 2009 and 2008 measured at fair value on a recurring basis (in thousands of dollars):

The information above discusses financial instruments carried on the Company’s balance sheet at fair value. Other financial instruments on the Company’s balance sheet, while not carried at fair value, do have market values which may differ from the carrying value. The following information shows the carrying values and estimated fair values of financial instruments and discusses the methods and assumptions used in determining these fair values.

The fair value of the Company's assets and liabilities is influenced heavily by market conditions. Fair value applies to both assets and liabilities, either on or off the balance sheet. Fair value is defined as the amount at which a financial instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale.

The methods and assumptions detailed below were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value are discussed following:

Cash, Due from Banks and Money Market Investments

The carrying amount of cash, due from bank balances, interest bearing deposits and federal funds sold is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Index

Securities

Fair values of securities are based on quoted market prices or dealer quotes. If a quoted market price is not available, fair value is estimated using quoted market prices for similar securities.

Restricted Investments

The carrying amount of restricted investments is a reasonable estimate of fair value, and considers the limited marketability of such securities.

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, taking into consideration the credit risk in various loan categories.

Deposits

The fair value of demand, interest checking, regular savings and money market deposits is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of fixed maturity certificates of deposit is estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.

Long-Term Debt Instruments

The fair value of fixed rate loans is estimated using the rates currently offered by the Federal Home Loan Bank for indebtedness with similar maturities.

Short-Term Debt Instruments

The fair value of short-term variable rate debt is deemed to be equal to the carrying value.

Interest Payable and Receivable

The carrying value of amounts of interest receivable and payable is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Life Insurance

The carrying amount of life insurance contracts is assumed to be a reasonable fair value. Life insurance contracts are carried on the balance sheet at their redemption value as of December 31, 2009 and 2008. This redemption value is based on existing market conditions and therefore represents the fair value of the contract.

Off-Balance-Sheet Items

The carrying amount and estimated fair value of off-balance-sheet items were not material at December 31, 2009 or 2008.

The carrying amount and estimated fair values of financial instruments as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 are shown in the table below (in thousands of dollars):

	2009				2008
	Carrying Amount		Estimated Fair Value		Carrying Amount		Estimated Fair Value

NOTE TWENTY: INVESTMENTS IN LIFE INSURANCE CONTRACTS

Investments in insurance contracts consist of single premium insurance contracts, which have the purpose of providing a rate of return to the Company and of providing life insurance and retirement benefits to certain executives.

During the third quarter of 2008, the Company received payment in settlement relating to one of these policies. This payment related to the death of an insured and resulted in a one-time, non-recurring gain of $30,000.

A summary of the changes to the balance of investments in insurance contracts for the twelve month periods ended December 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008 are shown in the table below (in thousands of dollars):

	2009			2008
Balance, beginning of period	$	6,499		$	6,300
Increases in value of policies		256			252
Settlement payout		(0	)		(53	)
Balance, end of period	$	6,755		$	6,499

NOTE TWENTY ONE: REGULATORY MATTERS

The Company is 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's financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Company's assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Company's capital amounts and classification 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 to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below) of total and Tier I capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined), and of Tier I capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined). The Company meets all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject and as of the most recent examination, the Company was classified as well capitalized.

To be categorized as well capitalized the Company must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier I risk-based, and Tier I leverage ratios as set forth in the table. There are no conditions or events that management believes have changed the Company's category from a well-capitalized status.

Capital ratios and amounts are applicable both at the individual Bank level and on a consolidated basis. At December 31, 2009 both subsidiary Banks had capital levels in excess of minimum requirements.

In addition, HBI Life Insurance Company is subject to certain capital requirements and dividend restrictions. At present, HBI Life is well within any capital limitations and no conditions or events have occurred to change this capital status, nor does management expect any such occurrence in the foreseeable future.

NOTE TWENTY TWO: INTANGIBLE ASSETS

The Company’s balance sheet contains several components of intangible assets. At December 31, 2009, the total balance of intangible assets was comprised of Goodwill and Core Deposit Intangible Assets acquired as a result of the acquisition of other banks and also an intangible asset related to the purchased naming rights for a performing arts center located within the Company’s primary business area.

Index

During the fourth quarter of 2007, The Grant County Bank entered into an agreement to contribute $250,000 toward the erection of a performing arts center located within the Company’s primary business area. In return, the bank was granted naming rights for this performing arts center. During the second quarter of 2008, the performing arts center reached an agreement with another party for the same rights but at better terms and cancelled the contractual agreement with The Grant County Bank. The $250,000 paid to the performing arts center was subsequently returned during the third quarter of 2008. After the cancellation of the original contract, the performing arts center and The Grant County Bank reached another agreement whereby a contribution of $75,000 was made in return for naming rights to only a portion of the same arts center.

A summary of the changes in balances of intangible assets for the twelve month periods ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 are shown below (in thousands of dollars):

	2009			2008
Balance beginning of period	$	2,749		$	3,106

2012		178
2013		165
2014		165

Total	$	1,020

NOTE TWENTY THREE: SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Company evaluates subsequent events that have occurred after the balance sheet, but before the financial statements are issued. There are two types of subsequent events: (1) recognized, or those that provide additional evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the balance sheet, including the estimates inherent in the process of preparing financial statements, and (2) non-recognized, or those that provide evidence about conditions that did not exist at the date of the balance sheet but arose after that date.

Based on management’s evaluation through March 29, 2010, the date these financial statements were issued, the Company did not identify any recognized or non-recognized subsequent events that would have required adjustment or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of

Highlands Bankshares, Inc.

Petersburg, West Virginia

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Highlands Bankshares, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders' equity and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2009. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company'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 the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements, 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 Highlands Bankshares, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2009 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

As discussed in Note Eighteen to the consolidated financial statements, the Company changed its method of accounting for split-dollar post-retirement benefits in 2008 as required by the provisions of EITF 06-04.

Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Interim Principal Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2009. Based on this evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Interim Principal Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information relating to the Company required to be included in the Company’s periodic SEC filings.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Highlands Bankshares, Inc. is responsible for the preparation, integrity, and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements included in this annual report. The consolidated financial statements and notes included in this annual report have been prepared in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles and necessarily include some amounts that are based on management’s best estimates and judgments.

The management of Highland’s Bankshares, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements or may not prevent the possibility that a control can be circumvented or overridden Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Based on the assessment using those criteria, management concluded that the internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2009.

This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in the Annual Report.

Changes in Internal Controls

During the period reported upon, there were no significant changes in internal controls of the Company pertaining to its financial reporting and control of its assets or in other factors that materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect such control.
