NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

September 30, 2011

NOTE A – BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8-03 of Rule S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results are for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2011, and are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2011. For further information refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included as Exhibit 13 to the Corporation’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.

The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

NOTE B – OTHER COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

Comprehensive income is defined as net income plus transactions and other occurrences that are the result of nonowner changes in equity. Other comprehensive income is defined as comprehensive income exclusive of net income. Unrealized gains and losses on available for sale investment securities and net accrued pension benefit liability are the components of the Corporation’s other accumulated comprehensive income.

Loans are categorized into one of nine loan grades with grades 1 through 5 representing various levels of acceptable loans, or “Pass” grades, and grades 6 through 9 representing various levels of credit deterioration.

6 — Special Mention (OAEM)

A special mention asset has potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the asset or in the institution’s credit position at some future date. Special mention assets are not adversely classified and do not expose the Bank to sufficient risk to warrant adverse classification. Loans graded a 6 may be experiencing adverse operating trends such as declining revenues or margins or an ill-proportioned balance sheet caused by increasing accounts receivable and/or inventory balances not supported by an increase in sales revenue. Other reasons supporting this classification include adverse economic or market conditions, pending litigation or any other material structural weakness.

7 — Substandard

Substandard loans are inadequately protected by current sound net worth, paying capacity of the borrower, or pledged collateral. Loans are normally graded 7 when they have unsatisfactory characteristics causing more than acceptable levels of risk. A loan graded 7 normally has one or more well-defined weakness that could jeopardize repayment of the debt. The following are examples of situations that might cause a loan to be graded 7:

 

 

Cash flow deficiencies jeopardize future loan payments.

 

 

Sale of non-collateral assets has become a primary source of loan repayment.

 

 

The relationship has deteriorated to the point that sale of collateral is now the Bank’s primary source of repayment.

 

 

The borrower is bankrupt, or for any other reason, future repayment is dependent on court action.

8 — Doubtful

Loans are graded 8 if they contain weaknesses so serious that collection or liquidation in full is questionable. An 8 classification will result in the loan being placed in non-accrual.

9 — Loss

A 9 rating is assigned to loans considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance as an active Bank asset is not warranted. This rating does not mean that the asset has no recovery or salvage value, but rather that the asset should be charged off now, even though partial or full recovery may be possible in the future.

In addition to the review of credit quality through the credit review process, we construct a comprehensive allowance analysis for the loan portfolio at least quarterly. The procedures that we use entail preparation of a loan “watch” list and assigning each loan a classification. Commercial loans with an aggregate loan balance in excess of $250,000, that meet one or more of the following conditions, require the completion of a Problem Loan Report and an impairment analysis by the responsible loan officer. The conditions are as follows:

a. Commercial loans graded OAEM, Substandard, Doubtful or Loss

b. Commercial loan in nonaccrual status

c. Commercial loans deemed impaired

d. Commercial loans past due greater than 90 days

e. Trouble debt restructures

f. Other circumstances i.e. bankruptcy, death of borrower/guarantor, etc.

The remaining loans reported on the loan “watch” list not included in one of the above categories have been assigned a classification that is intended to be representative of the degree of risk associated with that particular loan. An on-going three-year historical charge-off analysis is completed annually and the average percentage is applied.

NOTE C – LOANS AND ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES (Continued)

 

The remaining portfolio is segregated into loan pools consisting of commercial loans, commercial real estate owner occupied loans, commercial real estate non-owner occupied loans, commercial construction and land development loans, residential real estate loans, residential construction loans and consumer loans. The historical net charge-off percentage of each category is compiled. This data is then used to establish an average charge-off percentage for each category.

Also, we review concentrations of credit, classes of loans and pledged collateral to determine the existence of any deterioration. In addition, we consider volume and trends in delinquencies and nonaccrual loans, the loan portfolio composition, loan volume and maturity of the portfolio, national and local economic conditions and the experience, ability and depth of our lending management and staff.

The following tables summarize changes in the allowance for loan losses applicable to each category of the loan portfolio:

The Company’s loan portfolio also includes certain loans that have been modified in a Troubled Debt Restructuring (TDR), where economic concessions have been granted to borrowers who have experienced or are expected to experience financial difficulties. These concessions typically result from the Company’s collection activities and could include reductions in the interest rate, payment extensions, forgiveness of principal, forbearance or other actions. TDRs are classified as nonperforming at the time of restructure and may only be returned to performing status after considering the borrower’s sustained repayment performance for a reasonable period, generally six months.

When the Company modifies a loan, management evaluates any possible impairment based on the present value of expected future cash flows, discounted at the contractual interest rate of the original loan agreement, except when the sole remaining source of repayment for the loan is the operation or liquidation of the collateral. In these cases management uses the current fair value of the collateral, less selling costs, instead of discounted cash flows. If management determines that the value of the modified loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan, net of charge-offs, deferred loan fees or costs and unamortized premium or discount, impairment is recognized by segment or class of loan, as applicable, through an allowance estimate or a charge-off to the allowance. Segment and class status is determined by the loan’s classification at origination.

The following tables include the recorded investment and number of modifications for these loans. The Company reports the recorded investment in the loans prior to modifications and also the recorded investment in the loans after the loans were restructured. Management has also disclosed the recorded investment and number of modifications for troubled debt restructurings within the last year where concessions were made and subsequently defaulted in the current reporting period. As a result of adopting the amendments in ASU 2011-02, the Bank reassessed all restructurings that occurred since January 1, 2011 to determine whether they are considered troubled debt restructurings (TDRs) under the amended guidance. The Bank identified no TDRs for which the allowance for loan losses had previously been measured under a general allowance methodology.

The Corporation contributed $225,000 to the pension plan during both nine-month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Approximately $33,000 and $42,000 in contributions were made for postretirement benefits for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Contributions of $11,000 for postretirement benefits are expected to be made during the remainder of 2011.

On September 20, 2011, the Board of Directors voted to freeze accruals in the Company’s defined benefit pension plan and close the plan to new participants effective December 31, 2011. The freeze will result in the recognition of a curtailment gain in the fourth quarter of 2011 of approximately $537,000. Contributions of $300,000 for pension benefits are expected to be made during the fourth quarter of 2011.

NOTE E – REGULATORY CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS

Regulators of the Corporation and its subsidiary have implemented risk-based capital guidelines which require the maintenance of certain minimum capital as a percent of assets and certain off-balance sheet items adjusted for predefined credit risk factors. The regulatory minimums for Tier 1 and combined Tier 1 and Tier 2 capital ratios are 4.0% and 8.0%, respectively. Tier 1 capital includes common stockholders’ equity reduced by goodwill net of deferred taxes. Tier 2 capital includes portions of the allowance for loan losses, not to exceed Tier 1 capital. In addition to the risk-based guidelines, a minimum leverage ratio (Tier 1 capital as a percentage of average total consolidated assets) of 4% is required. The following table contains the capital ratios for the Corporation and the Bank.

NOTE F – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

In the normal course of business, the Corporation is involved in various legal suits and proceedings. In the opinion of management, based on the advice of legal counsel, these suits are without substantial merit and should not result in judgments that, in the aggregate, would have a material adverse effect on the Corporation’s financial statements.

First Century Bank, N.A., the Corporation’s wholly-owned banking subsidiary, is party to various financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk arising in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These commitments include standby letters of credit of approximately $3,821,000 at September 30, 2011 and $3,887,000 at December 31, 2010. These instruments contain various elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated statements of financial condition. Additionally, certain off-balance sheet items of approximately $38,373,000 at September 30, 2011, and $42,342,000 at December 31, 2010, were comprised primarily of unfunded loan commitments.

We held 15 available for sale securities and 3 held to maturity securities with unrealized losses at September 30, 2011. For all of these securities, because the decline in market value is attributable to changes in interest rates and not credit quality, and because the Corporation has the ability and intent to hold these investments until a recovery of fair value, which may be maturity, the Corporation does not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at September 30, 2011.

NOTE H – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

The Corporation utilizes fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and to determine fair value disclosures. Fair value guidance establishes a framework for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities and defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) as opposed to the price that would be paid to acquire the asset or received to assume the liability (an entry price). A fair value measure should reflect the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including the assumptions about the risk inherent in a particular valuation technique, the effect of a restriction on the sale or use of an asset and the risk of nonperformance. Required disclosures include identification of balance sheet amounts measured at fair value based on inputs the Company uses to derive fair value measurements. These include:

 

   

Level 1 valuations, where the valuation is based on quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities traded in active markets (which include exchanges and over-the-counter markets with sufficient volume),

 

   

Level 2 valuations, where the valuation is based on quoted market prices for similar instruments traded in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market, and

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

September 30, 2011

 

NOTE H – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT (Continued)

 

   

Level 3 valuations, where the valuation is generated from model-based techniques that use significant assumptions not observable in the market, but observable based on Company-specific data. These unobservable assumptions reflect the Company’s own estimates for assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Valuation techniques typically include option pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques, but may also include the use of market prices of assets or liabilities that are not directly comparable to the subject asset or liability.

Investment Securities Available-for-Sale:

Investment securities available-for-sale are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value measurement is based upon quoted prices, if available. If quoted prices are not available, fair values are measured using independent pricing models or other model-based valuation techniques such as the present value of future cash flows, adjusted for the security’s credit rating, prepayment assumptions and other factors such as credit loss assumptions.

Loans:

The Corporation does not record loans at fair value on a recurring basis. However, from time to time, a loan is considered impaired and an allowance for loan losses is established. The fair value of impaired loans is estimated using one of several methods, including collateral value, recent appraisal value and /or tax assessed value, liquidation value and discounted cash flows. At September 30, 2011, substantially all of the total impaired loans were evaluated based on the fair value of the collateral. When the fair value of the collateral is based on an observable market price or a current appraised value, the Corporation records the impaired loan as nonrecurring Level 2.

Foreclosed Assets / Repossessions:

Foreclosed assets and repossessions are adjusted to fair value upon transfer of the loans to foreclosed assets and repossessions. Fair value is based upon independent market prices, appraised values of the collateral or management’s estimation of the value of the collateral. When the fair value of the collateral is based on an observable market price or a current appraised value, the Corporation records the foreclosed asset as nonrecurring Level 2.

NOTE I – RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In July 2010, the Receivables topic of the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) was amended by Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2010-20 to require expanded disclosures related to a company’s allowance for credit losses and the credit quality of its financing receivables. The amendments require the allowance disclosures to be provided on a disaggregated basis. The Company adopted ASU 2010-20 in its December 31, 2010 financial statements. Certain disclosures about Troubled Debt Restructurings (“TDRs”) required by ASU 2010-20 were deferred by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) in ASU 2011-01 issued in January 2011. In April 2011 FASB issued ASU 2011-02 to assist creditors with their determination of when a restructuring is a TDR. The determination is based on whether the restructuring constitutes a concession and whether the debtor is experiencing financial difficulties as both events must be present. Disclosures related to TDRs under ASU 2010-20 were effective for the current reporting period. As a result of adopting the amendments in ASU 2011-02, the Bank reassessed all restructurings that occurred since January 1, 2011 to determine whether they are considered troubled debt restructurings (TDRs) under the amended guidance. The Bank identified no TDRs for which the allowance for loan losses had previously been measured under a general allowance methodology.

In April 2011, the criteria used to determine effective control of transferred assets in the Transfers and Servicing topic of the ASC was amended by ASU 2011-03. The requirement for the transferor to have the ability to repurchase or redeem the financial assets on substantially the agreed terms and the collateral maintenance implementation guidance related to that criterion were removed from the assessment of effective control. The other criteria to assess effective control were not changed. The amendments are effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2012 but are not expected to have a material effect on the financial statements.

NOTE I – RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS (Continued)

 

ASU 2011-04 was issued in May 2011 to amend the Fair Value Measurement topic of the ASC by clarifying the application of existing fair value measurement and disclosure requirements and by changing particular principles or requirements for measuring fair value or for disclosing information about fair value measurements. The amendments will be effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2012 but are not expected to have a material effect on the financial statements.

The Comprehensive Income topic of the ASC was amended in June 2011. The amendment eliminates the option to present other comprehensive income as a part of the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity. The amendment requires consecutive presentation of the statement of net income and other comprehensive income and requires an entity to present reclassification adjustments from other comprehensive income to net income on the face of the financial statements. The amendments will be applicable to the Company on January 1, 2012 and will be applied retrospectively.

Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

ITEM 2.    MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION  
   AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS  
   September 30, 2011  

This narrative will assist you, the reader, in your analysis of the accompanying consolidated financial statements and supplemental financial information. You should read it in conjunction with the unaudited consolidated financial statements and the notes presented elsewhere in this report. We are not aware of any market or institutional trends, events or uncertainties that will have or are reasonably likely to have a material effect on the liquidity, capital resources or operations of the Company, except as discussed herein. We are also not aware of any current recommendations by regulatory authorities, which would have such a material effect if implemented.

Forward-looking Statements

This report may contain certain forward-looking statements, including certain plans, expectations, goals and projections, which are inherently subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those contained in or implied by such statements for a variety of factors including but not limited to: changes in economic conditions which may affect our primary market area; rapid movements in interest rates; competitive pressures on product pricing and services; success and timing of business strategies; success and timing of loan workout strategies; the nature and extent of governmental actions and reforms; continuing consolidation of the financial services industry; rapidly changing technology; and evolving financial industry standards.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our accounting policies are an integral part to understanding the results reported. Our accounting and reporting policies are in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and they conform to general practices within the financial services industry. The most complex accounting policies require our best judgment to ascertain the valuation of assets, liabilities, commitments and contingencies. A variety of factors could affect the ultimate value obtained by the use of assumptions that involve significant uncertainty at the time of estimation. In some instances, we use a discount factor to determine the present value of assets and liabilities. A change in the discount factor could increase or decrease the values of those assets and liabilities, resulting in either a beneficial or an adverse impact on our financial results. The following is a brief description of our current accounting policies involving significant management valuation judgments and estimates.

Allowance for Loan Losses

We maintain, through the provision expense, an allowance for loan losses that we believe to be adequate to absorb probable credit losses inherent in the portfolio. The procedures that we use entail preparation of a loan watch list and assigning each loan a classification. For those individually significant loans where it is determined that it is not probable that the borrower will make all payments in accordance with the original loan agreement, we perform an impairment analysis. The measurement of impaired loans is based on either the fair value of the underlying collateral, the present value of the future cash flows discounted at the historical effective interest rate stipulated in the loan agreement, or the estimated market value of the loan.

Other classified loans are categorized and allocated appropriate reserves. We also reserve for other loans more than 90 days past due that were not considered in the aforementioned procedures. We segregate the remaining portfolio into consumer, commercial and residential real estate loans, and apply the historical net charge off percentage of each category to the current amount outstanding in those categories. Additionally, as part of this analysis we include such factors as concentrations of credit, collateral deficient loans, volume and trends in delinquencies, loan portfolio composition, loan volume and maturity of the portfolio, national and local economic conditions and the experience, ability and depth of lending management and staff.

Greater detail regarding the determination of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is provided later in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, as well as in Note C of Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements.

Pensions

We have a defined benefit pension plan covering substantially all employees with at least six months of service who are at least 20 1/2 years of age. Pension expense is determined by an actuarial valuation based on assumptions that are evaluated annually as of December 31, the measurement date for pension obligations. The most significant assumptions are the long-term expected rate of return on plan assets, the discount rate used to determine the present value of the pension obligations, and the weighted-average rate of expected increase in future compensation levels. On September 20, 2011, the Board of Directors voted to freeze accruals in the Company’s defined benefit pension plan and close the plan to new participants effective December 31, 2011.

Results of Operations for Three Months ended September 30, 2011

Net income for the third quarter of 2011 was $533,000, representing an increase of approximately 15.9%, from the comparable 2010 level of $460,000. This increase was primarily the result of the recognition of securities gains and higher noninterest income, offsetting additional provisions for loan losses and lower net interest income. Net interest income, the most significant component of net income, was $3,365,000 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2011, a decrease of $143,000, or 4.1%, as compared to $3,508,000 for the third quarter of 2010. This decrease was primarily the result of reduced interest income in excess of the reductions seen in interest expense due to lower loan demand, higher levels of nonperforming assets and the impact of an extended lower interest rate environment on the short term nature of the Company’s balance sheet. Net interest margins for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 were 3.20% and 3.30%, respectively.

Interest income for the three-month period ended September 30, 2011 decreased $338,000, or 7.9%, to $3,961,000, from $4,299,000 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2010. Interest income reflected a weighted-average yield on earning assets of 4.06% for the three-month period ended September 30, 2011, compared to 4.40% for the same three-month period in 2010. Average interest-earning assets were $390,260,000 and $391,029,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Interest expense decreased $195,000, or 24.7%, to $596,000 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2011, from $791,000 for the same period in 2010. This reflected an average cost of funds of 0.75% and 0.97%, respectively, for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010. Average interest-bearing liabilities were $319,177,000 and $325,980,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

The provision for loan losses was $1,160,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2011. This was a 43.9% increase when compared to the provision of $806,000 for the same period in 2010. Net charge-offs were $3,730,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2011, compared to $131,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2010.

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

September 30, 2011

 

The primary increase in the provision was the result of the final disposition of real estate collateral associated with one commercial loan relationship totaling approximately $3,300,000. The credit became collateral dependent during the second quarter of 2011, when the borrower was unable to keep payments current. Upon the auction sale of the remaining real estate collateral by the borrower in the last week of August 2011, it was determined that the remaining note balance should be charged off and any subsequent collections be treated as recovery. The charge-off was offset by a reduction of specific reserves of approximately $2,800,000 assigned to this credit.

Noninterest income, exclusive of securities gains and losses, was $1,368,000 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2011 and represented an increase of $35,000, or 2.6%, compared to $1,333,000 for the same period in 2010. An increase in fiduciary fees of $53,000, or 14.7%, was the primary contributor to higher noninterest income for the quarter.

During the third quarter of 2011, investment gains of $549,000 were recognized. Investment gains of $547,000 were recognized from the sale of approximately $17,000,000 in mortgage-backed and other government agency securities. Management believed the pricing for these securities was being artificially inflated by current Federal Reserve monetary policy and decided to capture a portion of those gains while they were available. Gains of $2,000 were recognized on the sale of one municipal issue of $340,000 in the held to maturity portfolio which was downgraded by Standard and Poors during the quarter below investment grade.

Noninterest expense of $3,350,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 decreased $67,000, or 2.0%, from $3,417,000 for the same period in 2010. Personnel expense decreased $55,000, or 3.4%, due to ongoing efforts to reduce staffing levels through this economic downturn.

During the third quarter of 2011, two actions were undertaken to reduce future noninterest expense. On August 24, 2011, First Century Bank, N.A., the Company’s banking subsidiary, filed an application with the West Virginia Division of Banking to convert from a national charter to a state chartered bank. It is expected the resulting reduction in regulatory assessments will be approximately $80,000 per year. Additionally, on September 20, 2011, the Board of Directors voted to freeze accruals in the Company’s defined benefit pension plan and close the plan to new participants effective December 31, 2011. The freeze will result in the recognition of a curtailment gain in the fourth quarter of 2011 of approximately $537,000. It is also expected to reduce future expense recognition by approximately $400,000 per year beginning in 2012.

On a per share basis, net income increased to $0.28 per share for the three-month period ended September 30, 2011, compared to $0.24 per share for the same period in 2010. Earnings for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010, reflect an annualized return on average assets (ROAA) of 0.51% and 0.43%, respectively. Also, these earnings reflect an annualized return on average equity (ROAE) of 5.18% and 4.53% for the three-month periods ending September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Dividends of $0.15 per share were paid during the third quarters of 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Results of Operations for Nine Months ended September 30, 2011

Net income was $1,402,000 for the nine-month period ending September 30, 2011. This represents a 12.2% decrease from the $1,597,000 earned during the same period in 2010. Net interest income, amounted to $10,116,000 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011, a decrease of $448,000, or 4.2%, as compared to $10,564,000 for the first nine months of 2010. Net interest margins for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 were 3.19% and 3.34%, respectively.

Interest income for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011 decreased $1,126,000, or 8.6%, to $12,008,000, from $13,134,000 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2010. Interest income reflected a weighted-average yield on earning assets of 4.09% for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011, compared to 4.52% for the same nine-month period in 2010. Average interest-earning assets were $391,909,000 and $387,318,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Interest expense decreased $678,000, or 26.4%, to $1,892,000 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011, from $2,570,000 for the same period in 2010. This reflected an average cost of funds of 0.79% and 1.05%, respectively, for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010. Average interest-bearing liabilities were $320,398,000 and $326,255,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

The provision for loan losses was $2,494,000 for the nine-months ended September 30, 2011. This was an increase of $951,000, or 61.6%, compared to the provision of $1,543,000 for the same period in 2010. As a result of the significant charge-offs in the third quarter previously mentioned, net charge-offs were $4,064,000 for the first nine months of 2011, compared to $293,000 for the same period in 2010.

Noninterest income, net of securities gains, was $4,245,000 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011 and represented an increase of $462,000, or 12.2%, compared to $3,783,000 for the same period in 2010. Again, improvement was experienced in most components of noninterest income, with the primary increase being in fiduciary fees which were up $351,000, or 33.5%. Securities gains were $549,000 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011, compared to $47,000 for the same period in 2010.

Noninterest expense of $10,501,000 for the nine-months ended September 30, 2011 represented a decrease of $37,000 from $10,538,000 for the same period in 2010. Increased costs associated with loan collections offset reductions in personnel expense.

On a per share basis, net income decreased to $0.74 per share for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011, compared to $0.84 per share for the same period in 2010. Earnings through September 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010, reflect an annualized return on average assets (ROAA) of 0.44% and 0.51%, respectively. Also, these earnings reflect an annualized return on average equity (ROAE) of 4.59% and 5.30% for the nine-month periods ending September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Dividends paid through the first nine months of 2011 were $0.30 per share, compared to $0.45 per share for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2010. In accordance with the dividend policy change announced in May of 2011, a third quarter dividend of $0.15 per share was declared on October 18, 2011, to be paid on or about November 18, 2011.

Financial Condition and Asset Quality

Total assets at September 30, 2011 were $416,349,000 as compared to $407,989,000 at December 31, 2010, or an increase of $8,360,000, or 2.1%. The loan portfolio decreased $5,772,000, or 2.2%, during this period to $254,485,000 at September 30, 2011, from $260,257,000 at December 31, 2010, reflecting minimal loan demand during the period. The investment portfolio decreased approximately $10,878,000, or 11.1%, during this same period. The reduction in loans and investments resulted in increased liquidity held in cash equivalents.

Total deposits increased by $3,005,000 to $355,346,000 at September 30, 2011 from $352,341,000 at December 31, 2010. Noninterest-bearing deposits increased by $10,395,000, or 22.1%, reflecting normal fluctuations with some larger commercial customers. Interest-bearing deposits decreased $7,390,000 during this same period, reflecting efforts to contain interest expense.

We evaluate the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses on a quarterly basis in order to maintain the allowance at a level that is sufficient to absorb probable credit losses. This evaluation is based on a review of our historical loss experience, known and inherent risks in the loan portfolio, including adverse circumstances that may affect the ability of the borrower to repay interest and/or principal, the estimated value of collateral, and an analysis of the levels and trends of delinquencies, charge-offs and the risk ratings of the various loan categories. Such factors as the level and trend of interest rates and the condition of national and local economies are also considered.

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

For instance, we have evaluated our residential mortgage loan portfolio in light of recent national trends in delinquency and foreclosure. We have not engaged in any of the subprime mortgage practices, and believe that our potential for credit deterioration in our residential mortgage portfolio is not as significant as other institutions may experience. Additionally, with the potential for higher interest rates and the variable rate nature of many of our commercial loans, we monitor the impact these changes could have on the ability of our customers to adjust to higher repayment requirements.

Nonperforming assets, including nonaccrual loans, loans past-due over 90 days, restructured loans and other real estate owned, were $18,349,000 at September 30, 2011, and $20,057,000 at December 31, 2010. As a percentage of total assets, nonperforming assets decreased from 4.9% at December 31, 2010 to 4.4% at September 30, 2011. With the reduction in specific reserves previously mentioned, the allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans decreased from 2.26% at December 31, 2010, to 1.69% at September 30, 2011. Estimates may change at some point in the future.

Impaired credits consist primarily of loans collateralized by commercial real estate where the borrower has experienced financial difficulties as a result of the downturn in the local and national economies. There is no other concentration by locale or industry that is common among these loans. The largest impaired loan is approximately $4,948,000, and is secured by a mixed use real estate development project in Richmond, Virginia. Both the development project and the guarantor have sought protection in bankruptcy and we are pursuing all collection efforts through this process. Due to the receipt of a new appraisal, indicating significant deterioration in market value, specific reserves of $400,000 were assigned to this credit during the third quarter of 2011.

For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011 there were no significant additions to impaired loans. Our collection efforts include foreclosure sales, often resulting in the borrower seeking protection in bankruptcy. Other borrowers make efforts to liquidate other assets to avoid foreclosure on primary collateral. Our success in maximizing collateral value will, in large part, depend on the absorption rate of commercial real estate property.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. These commitments include standby letters of credit of approximately $3,821,000 at September 30, 2011 and $3,887,000 at December 31, 2010. These instruments contain various elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated statements of financial condition. Additionally, certain off-balance sheet items of approximately $38,373,000 at September 30, 2011, and $42,342,000 at December 31, 2010, were comprised primarily of unfunded loan commitments. The methodology used to determine an estimate for the reserve for unfunded lending commitments is inherently similar to the methodology used in calculating the allowance for loan losses adjusted for factors specific to binding commitments, including the probability of funding and exposure at the time of funding. The reserve for unfunded lending commitments is included in other liabilities with increases or decreases included in noninterest expense. Estimates may change at some point in the future.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity management involves the ability to meet the cash flow requirements of depositors wanting to withdraw funds or borrowers needing assurance that sufficient funds will be available to meet their credit needs. Liquidity can best be demonstrated by an analysis of cash flows. The primary source of cash flows is from operating activities. Operating activities provided $4,506,000 of liquidity for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011, compared to $4,693,000 for the same nine months in 2010. The principal elements of these operating flows are net income, increased for significant non-cash expenses for the provision for loan losses and depreciation and amortization. A secondary source of liquidity comes from investing activities, principally the maturities of investment securities. Maturities and calls of investment securities decreased to $52,337,000 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011, compared to $65,297,000 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2010. Cash and cash equivalents continue to increase due to weak loan demand. As of September 30, 2011, we had approximately $7,927,000 of investment securities that mature within 36 months. Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because borrowers may have the right to call or prepay obligations. Also, mortgage backed securities provide monthly cash flow that differs from the final maturity of the individual security.

Additional sources of liquidity are available through the Federal Reserve System and through membership in the Federal Home Loan Bank system. As of September 30, 2011, we had a maximum secured borrowing capacity exceeding $60,000,000 through the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh. These funds can be made available with various maturities and interest rate structures. Borrowings are collateralized by a blanket lien by the Federal Home Loan Bank on its members’ qualifying assets. At September 30, 2011, we owned $1,020,000 of FHLB stock, and had no borrowings outstanding through the FHLB. As of September 30, 2011, there were no outstanding balances on our federal funds purchased lines of $8,700,000 with correspondent banks which are available for short-term liquidity needs.
