Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
 

Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (which consist of normal recurring accruals) necessary, to present fairly the condensed consolidated financial position as of March 31, 2007, the results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, and the cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006. In accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information, these statements do not include certain information and footnote disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete annual financial statements. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2006 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements of Community Trust Bancorp, Inc. ("CTBI") for that period. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, and the cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2006, included in CTBI's Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Principles of Consolidation - The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CTBI and its separate and distinct, wholly owned subsidiaries Community Trust Bank, Inc. (the Bank) and Community Trust and Investment Company. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Reclassifications - Certain reclassifications considered to be immaterial have been made in the prior year consolidated financial statements to conform to current year classifications.

New Accounting Standards -

Ø  Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Interpretation No. 48 ("FIN 48"), Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - An Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109. FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. This statement also prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. The evaluation of a tax position in accordance with this statement is a two-step process. The first step is a recognition process to determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. The second step is a measurement process whereby a tax position that meets the more likely than not recognition threshold is calculated to determine the amount of benefit to recognize in the financial statements. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. CTBI adopted the provisions of FIN 48 on January 1, 2007. The cumulative effect of applying the provisions of this statement was recognized as a $0.6 million adjustment to the beginning balance of retained earnings. An additional $28 thousand increase to the FIN 48 liability was charged to current income tax expense during the quarter ended March 31, 2007. The FIN 48 liability is carried in other liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2007. Approximately $0.2 million in FIN 48 liability is relative to state nexus issues. It is anticipated that these issues can be resolved through the filing of amended state tax returns, and management expects that these amended returns will be filed within the next twelve months. CTBI is subject to taxation in the United States and various state and local jurisdictions. For federal tax purposes, CTBI’s tax years for 2003 through 2006 are subject to examination by the tax authorities. For state and local tax purposes, CTBI’s tax years for 2002 through 2006 are subject to examination by the tax authorities. CTBI currently recognizes interest and penalties accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense.

Ø  Fair Value Measurements - In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements ("SFAS 157"), which provides guidance on how to measure assets and liabilities that use fair value. SFAS 157 will apply whenever another generally accepted accounting principle standard requires (or permits) assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value but does not expand the use of fair value to any new circumstances. This statement also will require additional disclosures in both annual and quarterly reports. SFAS 157 will be effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and will be adopted by CTBI beginning in the first quarter of 2008. CTBI is currently evaluating the potential impact this statement may have on its financial position and results of operations, but does not believe the impact of the adoption will be material.
 
Ø  Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities - In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities ("SFAS 159"), which permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The objective is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities using different measurement techniques. SFAS 159 requires additional disclosures related to the fair value measurements included in the entity's financial statements. This statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after Nov. 15, 2007. Accordingly, CTBI will adopt SFAS 159 in the first quarter of 2008. CTBI is currently evaluating the potential impact this statement may have on its financial position and results of operations, but does not believe the impact of the adoption will be material.

Note 2 - Stock-Based Compensation

For the three months ended March 31, 2007, CTBI’s compensation expense related to stock option grants was $230 thousand and as of March 31, 2007, there was a total of $2.5 million of unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested stock option awards that will be recognized as expense as the awards vest over a weighted average period of 1.7 years.
 
There were 109,304 options granted during the three months ended March 31, 2007. The fair value of options granted during the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, was established at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the weighted average assumptions as follows:

Note 3 - Securities

Securities are classified into held-to-maturity and available-for-sale categories. Held-to-maturity securities are those that CTBI has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity and are reported at amortized cost. Available-for-sale securities are those that CTBI may decide to sell if needed for liquidity, asset-liability management or other reasons. Available-for-sale securities are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains or losses included as a separate component of equity, net of tax.

The amortized cost and fair value of securities at March 31, 2007 are summarized as follows:

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the appropriate application of certain accounting policies, many of which require us to make estimates and assumptions about future events and their impact on amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements and related notes. Since future events and their impact cannot be determined with certainty, the actual results will inevitably differ from our estimates. Such differences could be material to the consolidated financial statements.

We believe the application of accounting policies and the estimates required therein are reasonable. These accounting policies and estimates are constantly reevaluated, and adjustments are made when facts and circumstances dictate a change. Historically, we have found our application of accounting policies to be appropriate, and actual results have not differed materially from those determined using necessary estimates.

Our accounting policies are more fully described in the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2006, included in CTBI's Annual Report on Form 10-K. We have identified the following critical accounting policies:

Loans - Loans with the ability and the intent to be held until maturity and/or payoff are reported at the carrying value of unpaid principal reduced by unearned interest and an allowance for loan and lease losses. Income is recorded on the level yield basis. Interest accrual is discontinued when management believes, after considering economic and business conditions, collateral value, and collection efforts, that the borrower’s financial condition is such that collection of interest is doubtful. Any loan greater than 90 days past due must be well secured and in the process of collection to continue accruing interest. Cash payments received on nonaccrual loans generally are applied against principal, and interest income is only recorded once principal recovery is reasonably assured. Loans are not reclassified as accruing until principal and interest payments are brought current and future payments appear reasonably certain.

Loan origination and commitment fees and certain direct loan origination costs are deferred and the net amount amortized over the estimated life of the related loans, leases, or commitments as a yield adjustment.

Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses - We maintain an allowance for loan and lease losses ("ALLL") at a level that is appropriate to cover estimated credit losses on individually evaluated loans determined to be impaired, as well as estimated credit losses inherent in the remainder of the loan and lease portfolio. Since arriving at an appropriate ALLL involves a high degree of management judgment, we use an ongoing quarterly analysis to develop a range of estimated losses. In accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, we use our best estimate within the range of potential credit loss to determine the appropriate ALLL. Credit losses are charged and recoveries are credited to the ALLL.

We utilize an internal risk grading system for commercial credits. Those larger commercial credits that exhibit probable or observed credit weaknesses are subject to individual review. The borrower’s cash flow, adequacy of collateral coverage, and other options available to CTBI, including legal remedies, are evaluated. The review of individual loans includes those loans that are impaired as provided in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan. We evaluate the collectibility of both principal and interest when assessing the need for loss provision. Historical loss rates are applied to other commercial loans not subject to specific allocations. The loss rates are determined from a migration analysis which computes the net charge off experience on loans according to their internal risk grade.

Homogenous loans, such as consumer installment, residential mortgages, and home equity lines are not individually risk graded. The associated ALLL for these loans is measured under SFAS No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies. The ALLL allocation for these pools of loans is established based on the average, maximum, minimum, and median loss ratios over the previous eight quarters.

Historical loss rates for commercial and retail loans are adjusted for significant factors that, in management’s judgment, reflect the impact of any current conditions on loss recognition. Factors that we consider include delinquency trends, current economic conditions and trends, strength of supervision and administration of the loan portfolio, levels of underperforming loans, level of recoveries to prior year's charge offs, trend in loan losses, industry concentrations and their relative strengths, amount of unsecured loans and underwriting exceptions. These factors are reviewed quarterly and a weighted range developed with a "most likely" scenario determined. The total of these weighted factors is then applied against the total portfolio and the ALLL is adjusted accordingly.

Loans Held for Sale - Mortgage loans originated and intended for sale in the secondary market are carried at the lower of cost or estimated market value in the aggregate. Net unrealized losses, if any, are recognized in a valuation allowance by charges to income.

Premises and Equipment - Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Capital leases are included in premises and equipment at the capitalized amount less accumulated amortization. Premises and equipment are evaluated for impairment on a quarterly basis.

Depreciation and amortization are computed primarily using the straight-line method. Estimated useful lives range up to 40 years for buildings, 2 to 10 years for furniture, fixtures, and equipment, and up to the lease term for leasehold improvements. Capitalized leased assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the lives of the respective leases.

Goodwill and Core Deposit Intangible - We evaluate total goodwill and core deposit intangible for impairment, based upon SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets and SFAS No. 147, Acquisitions of Certain Financial Institutions, using fair value techniques including multiples of price/equity. Goodwill and core deposit intangible are evaluated for impairment on an annual basis or as other events may warrant.

Amortization of core deposit intangible is estimated at approximately $0.6 million annually for the next four years and approximately $0.3 million in year five.

  Income Taxes - Income tax expense is based on the taxes due on the consolidated tax return plus deferred taxes based on the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates.

Earnings Per Share ("EPS") - Basic EPS is calculated by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.

Diluted EPS adjusts the number of weighted average shares of common stock outstanding by the dilutive effect of stock options as prescribed in SFAS No. 123R.

Segments - Management analyzes the operation of CTBI assuming one operating segment, community banking services. CTBI, through its operating subsidiaries, offers a wide range of consumer and commercial community banking services. These services include: (i) residential and commercial real estate loans; (ii) checking accounts; (iii) regular and term savings accounts and savings certificates; (iv) full service securities brokerage services; (v) consumer loans; (vi) debit cards; (vii) annuity and life insurance products; (viii) Individual Retirement Accounts and Keogh plans; (ix) commercial loans; (x) trust services; and (xi) commercial demand deposit accounts.

Bank Owned Life Insurance - CTBI's bank owned life insurance policies are carried at their cash surrender value. We recognize tax-free income from the periodic increases in cash surrender value of these policies and from death benefits.

Statement of Income Review

CTBI reported earnings for the quarter ended March 31, 2007 of $8.0 million or $0.53 per basic share compared to $9.5 million or $0.63 per share earned during the quarter ended December 31, 2006 and $9.8 million or $0.65 per share earned during the first quarter of 2006.

First Quarter Highlights

v  
CTBI had previously announced that it would elect the early adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 159. Upon review of emerging guidance, CTBI has determined that it is inappropriate for us to early adopt SFAS No. 159. Accordingly, CTBI will not early adopt the standard.

v  
As previously announced, CTBI has refunded its trust preferred securities and has incurred a pre-tax charge from unamortized debt issuance costs of approximately $1.9 million in the first quarter of 2007.

v  
CTBI's basic earnings per share for the first quarter 2007 decreased 15.9% from prior quarter and 18.5% from prior year first quarter. In addition to the impact to earnings discussed above, CTBI has also experienced continuing pressure on its net interest margin as time deposits have continued repricing in the current stable rate environment. Period over period earnings comparisons also reflect normal changes in our loan loss provision as reserve adequacy is reviewed on a quarterly basis.

v  
As anticipated by management, CTBI's net interest margin decreased 11 basis points from prior quarter and 20 basis points from prior year first quarter as CTBI continues operating within the inverted yield curve environment.

v  
CTBI’s average earning assets for the quarter ended March 31, 2007 increased 1.7% over the quarter ended December 31, 2006 and 3.2% from the quarter ended March 31, 2006.

v  
CTBI's investment portfolio increased an annualized 10.6% from prior quarter but decreased 9.1% from March 31, 2006.

v  
CTBI's loan portfolio grew at an annualized rate of 0.8% during the quarter and 3.3% from March 31, 2006.

v  
Nonperforming loans as a percentage of total loans at March 31, 2007 were 0.83% of total loans, an increase of $3.7 over prior quarter and a $2.0 million increase from same period prior year. The increase in nonperforming loans is primarily in smaller commercial loans with collateral. These loans are reviewed for impairment and specific reserves are established when appropriate.

v  
CTBI's efficiency ratio for the quarter was 64.68% compared to 57.43% and 58.21% for prior quarter and prior year first quarter, respectively.

CTBI had basic weighted average shares outstanding of 15.2 million and 15.0 million, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006. The following table sets forth on an annualized basis the return on average assets and return on average shareholders’ equity for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006:

Net Interest Income

As interest rates have stabilized, our net interest margin has continued to compress as expected. Our net interest margin for the first quarter 2007 was 3.84% compared to 3.95% for the fourth quarter 2006 and 4.04% for the first quarter 2006.

Net interest income decreased 3.2% from prior quarter and 1.8% from prior year. Average earning assets increased to $2.8 billion from $2.7 billion for the quarters ended December 31, 2006 and March 31, 2006, respectively. Average earning assets as a percentage of total assets of 92.7% have remained relatively stable compared to prior quarter and prior year first quarter of 92.4% and 92.3% respectively.

Net loan charge-offs for the quarter of $0.9 million, or 0.17% of average loans annualized, was a decrease of 45.3% from prior quarter and 33.5% from prior year first quarter. Reflective of the improvement in net charge-offs, our reserve for losses on loans as a percentage of total loans outstanding at March 31, 2007 decreased to 1.25% from the 1.27% at December 31, 2006 and the 1.34% at March 31, 2006.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income for the quarter was a decrease of 0.9% from the quarter ended December 31, 2006, but an increase of 9.8% from prior year first quarter. The increases in loan related fees and trust revenue from prior quarter were offset by decreases in deposit service charges and nonrecurring revenue items.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense increased 9.7% over prior quarter and 12.0% over prior year first quarter as a result of the charge from unamortized debt issuance costs with the redemption of trust preferred securities.

Balance Sheet Review

CTBI’s total assets grew $129 million or 4.3% from prior quarter and prior year first quarter. The growth in assets included $59.5 million in temporary funds related to a timing difference with the refinance of our trust preferred capital securities. Loans outstanding at March 31, 2007 were $2.2 billion reflecting a $4.0 million, annualized 0.8%, increase during the quarter. Deposits, including repurchase agreements, increased $58.7 million, an annualized 9.5%, during the quarter. The growth in deposits after funding of loans resulted in an increase in our investment portfolio of $12.9 million during the quarter, and federal funds sold increased $130.4 million, including the $59.5 million discussed above.

Shareholders’ equity of $287.8 million on March 31, 2007 was an annualized increase of 7.8% from the $282.4 million on December 31, 2006 and a 10.8% increase from the $259.8 million on March 31, 2006.
 
Loans

During the first quarter of 2007, loan growth occurred in commercial and consumer loans; however, residential real estate loans declined from prior year-end. At March 31, 2007, the commercial loan portfolio increased $4.8 million from prior year-end, and the consumer portfolio increased $2.5 million. Residential real estate loans decreased $3.3 million from December 31, 2006.

Nonperforming loans at March 31, 2007 were $17.9 million compared to $14.2 million at December 31, 2006 and $16.0 million at March 31, 2006. The increase in nonperforming loans was primarily smaller commercial loans with collateral that are individually reviewed with specific reserves established when appropriate.

Foreclosed properties at March 31, 2007 of $3.5 million are a $1.0 million decrease from the $4.5 million on December 31, 2006 and a $1.5 million decrease from the $5.0 million on March 31, 2006.

.Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan and lease losses balance is maintained by management at a level considered adequate to cover anticipated probable losses based on past loss experience, general economic conditions, information about specific borrower situations including their financial position and collateral values, and other factors and estimates which are subject to change over time. This analysis is completed quarterly and forms the basis for allocation of the loan loss reserve and what charges to the provision may be required. For further discussion of the allowance for loan losses, see the Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates section presented earlier in Item 2.

Securities

CTBI uses its securities held-to-maturity for production of income and to manage cash flow needs through expected maturities. CTBI uses its securities available-for-sale for income and balance sheet liquidity management. Securities available-for-sale reported at fair value increased from $425.9 million as of December 31, 2006 to $440.6 million at March 31, 2007; the excess of cost over market decreased from $5.0 million to $4.1 million. Securities held-to-maturity decreased from $40.5 million to $38.7 million during the same period. Total securities as a percentage of total assets were 15.7% as of December 31, 2006 and 15.5% as of March 31, 2007.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

CTBI’s liquidity objectives are to ensure that funds are available for the subsidiary bank to meet deposit withdrawals and credit demands without unduly penalizing profitability. Additionally, CTBI's objectives ensure that funding is available for CTBI to meet ongoing cash needs while maximizing profitability. CTBI continues to identify ways to provide for liquidity on both a current and long-term basis. The subsidiary bank relies mainly on core deposits, certificates of deposits of $100,000 or more, repayment of principal and interest on loans and securities and federal funds sold and purchased to create long-term liquidity. The subsidiary bank also has available the sale of securities under repurchase agreements, securities available-for-sale, and Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") borrowings as secondary sources of liquidity.

Due to the nature of the markets served by the subsidiary bank, management believes that the majority of its certificates of deposit of $100,000 or more and its repurchase agreements are no more volatile than its core deposits. During periods of interest rate volatility, these deposit balances have remained stable as a percentage of total deposits. In addition, an arrangement has been made with a correspondent bank for the purchase of federal funds on an unsecured basis, up to $20 million, if necessary, to meet CTBI’s liquidity needs.

CTBI owns securities with an estimated fair value of $440.6 million that are designated as available-for-sale and available to meet liquidity needs on a continuing basis. CTBI also has available Federal Home Loan Bank advances for both liquidity and management of its asset/liability position. FHLB advances decreased slightly from $81.2 million at December 31, 2006 to $81.1 million at March 31, 2007. FHLB borrowing capacity at March 31, 2007 was $368.3 million. Long-term debt increased to $120.8 million from December 31, 2006 to March 31, 2007 related to a timing difference with the refinance of our trust preferred capital securities. At March 31, 2007, federal funds sold was $192.5 million compared to $62.1 million at December 31, 2006; $59.5 million of this increase was also related to the timing difference with the refinance of our trust preferred securities. Additionally, management projects cash flows from CTBI's investment portfolio to generate additional liquidity over the next 90 days.

CTBI generally relies upon net inflows of cash from financing activities, supplemented by net inflows of cash from operating activities, to provide cash for its investing activities. As is typical of many financial institutions, significant financing activities include deposit gathering, use of short-term borrowing facilities such as federal funds purchased and securities sold under repurchase agreements, and issuance of long-term debt. CTBI’s primary investing activities include purchases of securities and loan originations.

The investment portfolio continues to consist of high-quality short-term issues. The majority of the investment portfolio is in U.S. government and government sponsored agency issuances. The average life of the portfolio is 2.58 years. Available-for-sale ("AFS") securities comprise 92% of the total investment portfolio. At the end of the first quarter, the AFS portfolio was 153% of equity capital.  At March 31, 2007, eighty-three percent of the pledge eligible portfolio was pledged.

CTBI's stock repurchase program began in December 1998 with the authorization to acquire up to 500,000 shares and was increased by an additional 1,000,000 shares in July 2000 and in May 2005. During the first three months of 2007, CTBI acquired no shares of CTBI's stock. As of March 31, 2007, a total of 1.9 million shares have been repurchased through this program, leaving 0.6 million shares available for repurchase.

In conjunction with maintaining a satisfactory level of liquidity, management monitors the degree of interest rate risk assumed on the consolidated balance sheet. CTBI monitors its interest rate risk by use of the static gap model and dynamic gap model at the one-year interval. CTBI uses the Sendero system to monitor its interest rate risk. The static gap model monitors the difference in interest rate sensitive assets and interest rate sensitive liabilities as a percentage of total assets that mature within the specified time frame. The dynamic gap model goes further in that it assumes that interest rate sensitive assets and liabilities will be reinvested. CTBI desires an interest sensitivity gap of not more than fifteen percent of total assets at the one-year interval.

CTBI’s principal source of funds used to pay dividends to shareholders and service long-term debt is the dividends it receives from the subsidiary bank. Various federal statutory provisions, in addition to regulatory policies and directives, limit the amount of dividends that subsidiary banks can pay without prior regulatory approval. These restrictions have had no major impact on CTBI’s dividend policy or its ability to service long-term debt, nor is it anticipated that they would have any major impact in the foreseeable future. During the remainder of 2007, approximately $54.0 million plus any remaining 2007 net profits can be paid by CTBI’s banking subsidiary without prior regulatory approval.

The primary source of capital for CTBI is retained earnings. CTBI paid cash dividends of $0.27 per share during the first three months of 2007. Basic earnings per share for the same period was $0.53. CTBI retained 49.1% of earnings for the first three months of 2007.

Under guidelines issued by banking regulators, CTBI and its subsidiary bank are required to maintain a minimum Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 4% and a minimum total risk-based ratio of 8%. In order to be considered “well-capitalized” CTBI must maintain ratios of 6% and 10%, respectively. Risk-based capital ratios weight the relative risk factors of all assets and consider the risk associated with off-balance sheet items. CTBI must also maintain a minimum Tier 1 leverage ratio of 4%. The well-capitalized ratio for Tier 1 leverage is 5%. CTBI’s Tier 1 leverage, Tier 1 risk-based, and total risk-based ratios were 9.62%, 12.11%, and 13.28%, respectively, as of March 31, 2007, all exceeding the threshold for meeting the definition of well-capitalized.

As of March 31, 2007, management is not aware of any current recommendations by banking regulatory authorities which, if they were to be implemented, would have, or would be reasonably likely to have, a material adverse impact on CTBI’s liquidity, capital resources, or operations.

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices

The majority of CTBI’s assets and liabilities are monetary in nature. Therefore, CTBI differs greatly from most commercial and industrial companies that have significant investment in nonmonetary assets, such as fixed assets and inventories. However, inflation does have an important impact on the growth of assets in the banking industry and on the resulting need to increase equity capital at higher than normal rates in order to maintain an appropriate equity to assets ratio. Inflation also affects other expenses, which tend to rise during periods of general inflation.

Management believes one of the most significant impacts on financial and operating results is CTBI’s ability to react to changes in interest rates. Management seeks to maintain an essentially balanced position between interest rate sensitive assets and liabilities in order to protect against the effects of wide interest rate fluctuations.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
 
Certain of the statements contained herein that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act. CTBI’s actual results may differ materially from those included in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words or phrases such as "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "intend," "estimate," "may increase," "may fluctuate," and similar expressions or future or conditional verbs such as "will," "should," "would," and "could." These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties including, but not limited to, economic conditions, portfolio growth, the credit performance of the portfolios, including bankruptcies, and seasonal factors; changes in general economic conditions including the performance of financial markets, prevailing inflation and interest rates, realized gains from sales of investments, gains from asset sales, and losses on commercial lending activities; results of various investment activities; the effects of competitors’ pricing policies, changes in laws and regulations, competition, and demographic changes on target market populations’ savings and financial planning needs; industry changes in information technology systems on which we are highly dependent; failure of acquisitions to produce revenue enhancements or cost savings at levels or within the time frames originally anticipated or unforeseen integration difficulties; the adoption by CTBI of a Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC) policy that provides guidance on the reporting of delinquent consumer loans and the timing of associated credit charge-offs for financial institution subsidiaries; and the resolution of legal proceedings and related matters. In addition, the banking industry in general is subject to various monetary and fiscal policies and regulations, which include those determined by the Federal Reserve Board, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, and state regulators, whose policies and regulations could affect CTBI’s results. These statements are representative only on the date hereof, and CTBI undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements made.


Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Interest rate risk management focuses on maintaining consistent growth in net interest income within Board-approved policy limits. CTBI uses an earnings simulation model to analyze net interest income sensitivity to movements in interest rates. Given a 200 basis point increase to the yield curve used in the simulation model, it is estimated net interest income for CTBI would increase by 5.43 percent over one year and by 4.12 percent over two years. A 200 basis point decrease in the yield curve would decrease net interest income by an estimated 5.32 percent over one year and by 2.85 percent over two years. For further discussion of CTBI's market risk, see the Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations--Liquidity and Market Risk included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.


Item 4. Controls and Procedures
 
CTBI's management is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective disclosure controls and procedures, as defined under Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. As of March 31, 2007, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Executive Vice President/Treasurer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of CTBI's disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, management concluded that disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2007 were effective in ensuring material information required to be disclosed in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q was recorded, processed, summarized, and reported on a timely basis. Additionally, there were no changes in CTBI's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2007 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, CTBI's internal control over financial reporting.

Management's responsibilities related to establishing and maintaining effective disclosure controls and procedures include maintaining effective internal controls over financial reporting that are designed to produce reliable financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. There have been no significant changes in CTBI's internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to March 31, 2007.
