NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Note 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation: The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) for interim financial reporting and with applicable quarterly reporting regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC). They do not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. Therefore, these consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the C&F Financial Corporation Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of C&F Financial Corporation (the Corporation) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Citizens and Farmers Bank (the Bank or C&F Bank). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In addition, C&F Financial Corporation owns C&F Financial Statutory Trust I and C&F Financial Statutory Trust II, which are unconsolidated subsidiaries. The subordinated debt owed to these trusts is reported as a liability of the Corporation.

Nature of Operations: The Corporation is a bank holding company incorporated under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia. The Corporation owns all of the stock of its subsidiary, C&F Bank, which is an independent commercial bank chartered under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia. The Bank and its subsidiaries offer a wide range of banking and related financial services to both individuals and businesses.

The Bank has five wholly-owned subsidiaries: C&F Mortgage Corporation and Subsidiaries (C&F Mortgage), C&F Finance Company (C&F Finance), C&F Title Agency, Inc., C&F Investment Services, Inc. and C&F Insurance Services, Inc., all incorporated under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia. C&F Mortgage, organized in September 1995, was formed to originate and sell residential mortgages and through its subsidiaries, Hometown Settlement Services LLC and Certified Appraisals LLC, provides ancillary mortgage loan production services, such as loan settlements, title searches and residential appraisals. C&F Finance, acquired on September 1, 2002, is a regional finance company providing automobile loans. C&F Title Agency, Inc., organized in October 1992, primarily sells title insurance to the mortgage loan customers of the Bank and C&F Mortgage. C&F Investment Services, Inc., organized in April 1995, is a full-service brokerage firm offering a comprehensive range of investment services. C&F Insurance Services, Inc., organized in July 1999, owns an equity interest in an insurance agency that sells insurance products to customers of the Bank, C&F Mortgage and other financial institutions that have an equity interest in the agency. Business segment data is presented in Note 6.

Basis of Presentation: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP 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. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, the allowance for indemnifications, impairment of loans, impairment of securities, the valuation of other real estate owned, the projected benefit obligation under the cash balance pension plan, the valuation of deferred taxes, the valuation of derivative financial instruments and goodwill impairment. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations in these financial statements, have been made. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts to conform to the current period presentation.

Share-Based Compensation: Compensation expense for the second quarter and first six months of 2010 included $94,000 ($58,000 after tax) and $194,000 ($120,000 after tax), respectively, for restricted stock granted since 2006. As of June 30, 2010, there was $993,000 of total unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested restricted stock that will be recognized over the remaining requisite service periods.

Derivative Financial Instruments: During the second quarter of 2010, the Corporation entered into a derivative financial instrument. The Corporation recognizes derivative financial instruments as either an asset or liability in the consolidated balance sheet at fair value in other assets or other liabilities. The derivative financial instrument has been designated as and qualifies as a cash flow hedge. The effective portion of the gain or loss on the cash flow hedge is reported as a component of other comprehensive income, net of deferred income taxes, and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings.

Recent Significant Accounting Pronouncements:

In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued new guidance relating to the accounting for transfers of financial assets. The new guidance, which was issued as Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (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 Update (ASU) 2009-16 (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. ASU 2009-16 was effective January 1, 2010. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material effect on the Corporation’s 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 through the issuance of ASU 2009-17 and updates ASC Topic 810: Consolidation (ASC Topic 810). 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. ASC Topic 810 was effective as of January 1, 2010. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material effect on the Corporation’s 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). 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 adoption of ASU 2010-06 did not have a material effect on the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements.

In July 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-20, Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses (ASU 2010-20)The new disclosure guidance will significantly expand the existing disclosure requirements and is intended to lead to greater transparency into a company’s exposure to credit losses from lending arrangements. The extensive new

disclosures of information as of the end of a reporting period will become effective for both interim and annual reporting periods ending after December 15, 2010. Specific items regarding activity that occurred before the issuance of the ASU, such as the allowance rollforward and modification disclosures, will be required for periods beginning after December 15, 2010. The Corporation is currently assessing the impact that ASU 2010-20 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

There are 55 debt securities with fair values totaling $17.98 million considered temporarily impaired at June 30, 2010. The primary cause of the temporary impairments in the Corporation’s investments in debt securities was fluctuations in interest rates. Because the Corporation intends to hold these investments in debt securities to maturity and it is more likely than not that the Corporation will not be required to sell these investments before a recovery of unrealized losses, the Corporation does not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2010 and no impairment has been recognized. There are three equity securities with a fair value of $148,000 considered temporarily impaired at June 30, 2010. The Corporation has the intent and ability to hold these equity securities until a recovery of the unrealized loss and therefore does not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2010.

Securities in an unrealized loss position at December 31, 2009, by duration of the period of the unrealized loss, are shown below.

The Corporation’s investment in Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) stock totaled $3.89 million at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009. FHLB stock is generally viewed as a long-term investment and as a restricted investment security, which is carried at cost, because there is no market for the stock, other than the FHLBs or member institutions. Therefore, when evaluating FHLB stock for impairment, its value is based on the ultimate recoverability of the par value rather than by recognizing temporary declines in value. Despite the FHLB’s temporary suspension of repurchases of excess capital stock beginning in 2009, the Corporation does not consider this investment to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2010 and no impairment has been recognized. FHLB stock is shown as a separate line item on the balance sheet and is not a part of the available for sale securities portfolio.

NOTE 5: Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. U.S. GAAP requires that valuation techniques maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. U.S. GAAP also establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the valuation inputs into three broad levels. Based on the underlying inputs, each fair value measurement in its entirety is reported in one of the three levels. These levels are:

 

   

Level 1—Valuation is based upon quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets. Level 1 assets and liabilities include debt and equity securities traded in an active exchange market, as well as U.S. Treasury securities.

 

   

Level 2—Valuation is based upon quoted prices for similar instruments 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 or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

 

   

Level 3—Valuation is determined using model-based techniques with significant assumptions not observable in the market.

U.S. GAAP allows an entity the irrevocable option to elect fair value (the fair value option) for the initial and subsequent measurement for certain financial assets and liabilities on a contract-by-contract basis. The Corporation has not made any fair value option elections as of June 30, 2010.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

The Corporation is also required to measure and recognize certain other financial assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in the consolidated balance sheets. For assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis and still held on the consolidated balance sheets, the following table provides the fair value measures by level of valuation assumptions used. Fair value adjustments for other real estate owned (OREO) are recorded in other noninterest expense and fair value adjustments for loans held for investment are recorded in the provision for loan losses, in the consolidated statements of income. There were no liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis at June 30, 2010 or December 31, 2009.

The following describes the valuation techniques used by the Corporation to measure financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value as of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009.

Cash and short-term investments. The nature of these instruments and their relatively short maturities provide for the reporting of fair value equal to the historical cost.

Securities available for sale. Securities available for sale are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis.

Loans, net. The estimated fair value of the loan portfolio is based on present values using discount rates equal to the market rates currently charged on similar products.

Certain loans are accounted for under ASC Topic 310—Receivables, 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). Collateral may be in the form of real estate or business assets including equipment, inventory and accounts receivable. A significant portion of the collateral securing the Corporation’s impaired loans is real estate. The fair value of real estate collateral is determined utilizing an income or market valuation approach based on an appraisal conducted by an independent, licensed appraiser outside of the Corporation using observable market data, which in some cases may be adjusted to reflect current trends, including sales prices, expenses, absorption periods and other current relevant factors (Level 2). The value of business equipment is based upon an outside appraisal if deemed significant, or the net book value on the applicable business’s financial statements, if not considered significant, using observable market data (Level 2). At June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the Corporation’s impaired loans were valued at $7.99 million and $6.72 million, respectively.

Loans held for sale, net. Loans held for sale are required to be measured at the lower of cost or fair value. These loans currently consist of residential loans originated for sale in the secondary market. Fair value is based on the price secondary markets are currently offering for similar loans using observable market data, which is generally not materially different than cost due to the short duration between origination and sale (Level 2). As such, the Corporation records any fair value adjustments on a nonrecurring basis. No nonrecurring fair value adjustments were recorded on loans held for sale during the three or six months ended June 30, 2010.

Accrued interest receivable. The carrying amount of accrued interest receivable approximates fair value.

Deposits. The fair value of all demand deposit accounts is the amount payable at the report date. For all other deposits, the fair value is determined using the discounted cash flow method. The discount rate was equal to the rate currently offered on similar products.

Borrowings. The fair value of borrowings is determined using the discounted cash flow method. The discount rate was equal to the rate currently offered on similar products.

Derivative payable. The fair value of the derivative is determined using the discounted cash flow method.

Accrued interest payable. The carrying amount of accrued interest payable approximates fair value.

Letters of credit. The estimated fair value of letters of credit is based on estimated fees the Corporation would pay to have another entity assume its obligation under the outstanding arrangements. These fees are not considered material.

Unused portions of lines of credit. The estimated fair value of unused portions of lines of credit is based on estimated fees the Corporation would pay to have another entity assume its obligation under the outstanding arrangements. These fees are not considered material.

The Corporation assumes interest rate risk (the risk that general interest rate levels will change) as a result of its normal operations. As a result, the fair values of the Corporation’s financial instruments will change when interest rate levels change and that change may be either favorable or unfavorable to the Corporation. Management attempts to match maturities of assets and liabilities to the extent believed necessary to balance minimizing interest rate risk and increasing net interest income in current market conditions. However, borrowers with fixed rate obligations are less likely to prepay in a rising rate environment and more likely to prepay in a falling rate environment. Conversely, depositors who are receiving fixed rates are more likely to withdraw funds before maturity in a rising rate environment and less likely to do so in a falling rate environment. Management monitors interest rates, maturities and repricing dates of assets and liabilities and attempts to manage interest rate risk by adjusting terms of new loans, deposits and borrowings and by investing in securities with terms that mitigate the Corporation’s overall interest rate risk.

NOTE 6: Business Segments

The Corporation operates in a decentralized fashion in three principal business segments: Retail Banking, Mortgage Banking and Consumer Finance. Revenues from Retail Banking operations consist primarily of interest earned on loans and investment securities and service charges on deposit accounts. Mortgage Banking operating revenues consist principally of gains on sales of loans in the secondary market, loan origination fee income and interest earned on mortgage loans held for sale. Revenues from Consumer Finance consist primarily of interest earned on automobile retail installment sales contracts.

The Corporation’s other segments include an investment company that derives revenues from brokerage services, an insurance company that derives revenues from insurance services, and a title company that derives revenues from title insurance services. The results of these other segments are not significant to the Corporation as a whole and have been included in “Other.” Revenue and expenses of the Corporation’s holding company are also included in “Other,” and consist primarily of dividends received on the Corporation’s investment in equity securities and interest expense associated with the Corporation’s trust preferred capital notes.

The Retail Banking segment extends a warehouse line of credit to the Mortgage Banking segment, providing a portion of the funds needed to originate mortgage loans. The Retail Banking segment charges the Mortgage Banking segment interest at the daily FHLB advance rate plus 50 basis points. The Retail Banking segment also provides the Consumer Finance segment with a portion of the funds needed to originate loans by means of a variable rate line of credit that carries interest at one-month LIBOR plus 175 basis points and fixed rate loans that carry interest rates ranging from 5.4 percent to 8.0 percent. The Retail Banking segment acquires certain residential real estate loans from the Mortgage Banking segment at prices similar to those paid by third-party investors. These transactions are eliminated to reach consolidated totals. Certain corporate overhead costs incurred by the Retail Banking segment are not allocated to the Mortgage Banking, Consumer Finance and Other segments.

NOTE 7: Derivatives

The Corporation uses derivatives to manage exposure to interest rate risk through the use of interest rate swaps. Interest rate swaps involve the exchange of fixed and variable rate interest payments between two parties, based on a common notional principal amount and maturity date with no exchange of underlying principal amounts. The Corporation’s interest rate swap qualifies as a cash flow hedge. The Corporation’s cash flow hedge effectively modifies the Corporation’s exposure to interest rate risk by converting floating rate debt to a fixed rate debt with a maturity in 2015.

The notional amount of the cash flow hedge is $5.0 million. At June 30, 2010, the cash flow hedge had a fair value of ($149,000) and is recorded in other liabilities. The cash flow hedge was fully effective at June 30, 2010 and therefore the loss on the cash flow hedge was recognized as a component of other comprehensive income, net of deferred income taxes.

NOTE 9: Subsequent Events

The Corporation evaluates subsequent events that have occurred after the balance sheet date 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) nonrecognized, 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 the evaluation, the Corporation did not identify any recognized or nonrecognized subsequent events that would have required adjustment to or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements.

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

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This report contains statements concerning the Corporation’s expectations, plans, objectives, future financial performance and other statements that are not historical facts. These statements may constitute “forward-looking statements” as defined by federal securities laws. These statements may address issues that involve estimates and assumptions made by management and risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements in this report include, without limitation, statements regarding asset quality, adequacy of reserves for loan losses and indemnification losses, expected future indemnification obligations and the economic and employment environment. Actual results could differ materially from historical results or those anticipated by any forward-looking statements. Factors that could have a material adverse effect on the operations and future prospects of the Corporation include, but are not limited to, changes in:

 

   

interest rates

 

   

general business conditions, as well as conditions within the financial markets

 

   

general economic conditions, including unemployment levels

 

   

the legislative/regulatory climate, including the effect of restrictions imposed on us as a participant in the Capital Purchase Program

 

   

monetary and fiscal policies of the U.S. Government, including policies of the Treasury and the Federal Reserve Board

 

   

the quality or composition of the loan portfolios and the value of the collateral securing those loans

 

   

the value of securities held in the Corporation’s investment portfolios

 

   

the level of net charge-offs on loans and the adequacy of our allowance for loan losses

 

   

the level of indemnification losses related to mortgage loans sold

 

   

demand for loan products

 

   

deposit flows

 

   

the strength of the Corporation’s counterparties

 

   

competition from both banks and non-banks

 

   

demand for financial services in the Corporation’s market area

 

   

technology

 

   

reliance on third parties for key services

 

   

the commercial and residential real estate markets

 

   

demand in the secondary residential mortgage loan markets

 

   

the Corporation’s expansion and technology initiatives

 

   

accounting principles, policies and guidelines

These risks are exacerbated by the turbulence experienced during 2008, 2009 and continuing so far into 2010 in significant portions of the global and United States financial markets, which if it continues or worsens, could further impact the Corporation’s performance, both directly by affecting the Corporation’s revenues and the value of its assets and liabilities, and indirectly by affecting the Corporation’s counterparties and the economy generally. While there are signs of improvement, the capital and credit markets have experienced extended volatility and disruption during the past two years, and unemployment has risen to, and currently remains at, high levels. There can be no assurance that these unprecedented developments will not continue to materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations, as well as our ability to raise capital for liquidity and business purposes.

Although the Corporation had, and continues to have, diverse sources of liquidity and its capital ratios exceeded, and continue to exceed, the minimum levels required for well-capitalized status, the Corporation issued and sold its Series A Preferred Stock and Warrant for a $20.0 million investment from Treasury under the Capital Purchase Program on January 9, 2009. The Bank is participating in the FDIC Transaction Account Guarantee Program, under which all noninterest-bearing transaction accounts (as defined within the program) are fully guaranteed by the FDIC for the entire amount in the account through December 31, 2010.

Our ability to engage in routine funding transactions could be adversely affected by the actions and commercial soundness of other financial institutions. Financial services institutions are interrelated as a result of trading, clearing, counterparty or other relationships, and we routinely execute transactions with counterparties in the financial industry, including brokers and dealers, commercial banks, and other institutions. As a result, defaults by, or even rumors or questions about, one or more financial services institutions, or the

 

17


Table of Contents

financial services industry generally, could create another market-wide liquidity crisis similar to that experienced in late 2008 and early 2009 and could lead to losses or defaults by us or by other institutions. There is no assurance that any such losses would not materially adversely affect the Corporation’s results of operations.

Further, there can be no assurance that the actions taken by the federal government and regulatory agencies will stabilize the United States financial system or alleviate the industry or economic factors that may adversely affect the Corporation’s business and financial performance. It also is not clear what effects the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (the Dodd-Frank Act), the regulations promulgated thereunder or other future regulatory reforms may have on financial markets, the financial services industry and depositary institutions, and consequently on the Corporation’s business and financial performance.

These risks and uncertainties should be considered in evaluating the forward-looking statements contained herein. We caution readers not to place undue reliance on those statements, which speak only as of the date of this report.

The following discussion supplements and provides information about the major components of the results of operations, financial condition, liquidity, and capital resources of the Corporation. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The preparation of financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions. Those accounting policies with the greatest uncertainty and that require our most difficult, subjective or complex judgments affecting the application of these policies, and the likelihood that materially different amounts would be reported under different conditions, or using different assumptions, are described below.

Allowance for Loan Losses: We establish the allowance for loan losses through charges to earnings in the form of a provision for loan losses. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when we believe that the collection of the principal is unlikely. Subsequent recoveries of losses previously charged against the allowance are credited to the allowance. The allowance represents an amount that, in our judgment, will be adequate to absorb any losses on existing loans that may become uncollectible. Our judgment in determining the level of the allowance is based on evaluations of the collectibility of loans while taking into consideration such factors as trends in delinquencies and charge-offs, changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, current economic conditions that may affect a borrower’s ability to repay and the value of collateral, overall portfolio quality and review of specific potential losses. This evaluation is inherently subjective because it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available.

Allowance for Indemnifications: The allowance for indemnifications is established through charges to earnings in the form of a provision for indemnifications, which is included in other noninterest expenses. A loss is charged against the allowance for indemnifications under certain conditions when a purchaser of a loan (an investor) sold by C&F Mortgage incurs a loss due to borrower misrepresentation, fraud, early default, or underwriting errors. The allowance represents an amount that, in management’s judgment, will be adequate to absorb any losses arising from indemnification requests. Management’s judgment in determining the level of the allowance is based on the volume of loans sold, current economic conditions and information provided and indemnification requests made by investors. This evaluation is inherently subjective, as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available.

Impairment of Loans: We consider a loan impaired when it is probable that the Corporation will be unable to collect all interest and principal payments as scheduled in the loan agreement. We do not consider a loan impaired during a period of delay in payment if we expect the ultimate collection of all amounts due. We generally measure impairment on a loan-by-loan basis for commercial, construction and residential loans in excess of $500,000 by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s obtainable market price, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. Large groups of smaller balance homogeneous loans are collectively evaluated for impairment. We maintain a valuation allowance based on the estimated fair value of the collateral relative to the recorded investment in the impaired loan, as well as other relevant factors.

Impairment of Securities: Impairment of securities occurs when the fair value of a security is less than its amortized cost. For debt securities, impairment is considered other-than-temporary and recognized in its entirety in net income if either (i) we intend to sell the security or (ii) it is more-likely-than-not that we will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If, however, we do not intend to sell the security and it is not more-likely-than-not that we will be required to sell the security before recovery, we must determine what portion of the impairment is attributable to a credit loss, which occurs when the amortized cost basis of the security exceeds the present value of the cash flows expected to be collected from the security. If there is no credit loss, there is no other-than-temporary impairment. If there is a credit loss, other-than-temporary impairment exists, and the credit loss must be recognized in net income and the remaining portion of impairment must be recognized in other comprehensive income. For equity securities, impairment is considered to be other-than-temporary based on our ability and intent to hold the investment until a recovery

of fair value. Other-than-temporary impairment of an equity security results in a write-down that must be included in net income. We regularly review each investment security for other-than-temporary impairment based on criteria that includes the extent to which cost exceeds market price, the duration of that market decline, the financial health of and specific prospects for the issuer, our best estimate of the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from debt securities, our intention with regard to holding the security to maturity and the likelihood that we would be required to sell the security before recovery.

Other Real Estate Owned: Assets acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are held for sale and are recorded at the estimated fair value less costs to sell at the date of foreclosure. Subsequent to foreclosure, management periodically performs valuations of the foreclosed assets based on updated appraisals, general market conditions, recent sales of like properties, length of time the properties have been held, and our ability and intention with regard to continued ownership of the properties. The Corporation may incur additional write-downs of foreclosed assets to fair value less costs to sell if valuations indicate a further other-than-temporary deterioration in market conditions. Revenues and expenses from operations and changes in the property valuations are included in other noninterest expenses.

Goodwill: Goodwill is no longer subject to amortization over its estimated useful life, but is subject to at least an annual assessment for impairment by applying a fair value based test. In assessing the recoverability of the Corporation’s goodwill, all of which was recognized in connection with the Bank’s acquisition of C&F Finance in September 2002, we must make assumptions in order to determine the fair value of the respective assets. Major assumptions used in determining impairment are increases in future income, sales multiples in determining terminal value and the discount rate applied to future cash flows. As part of the impairment test, we perform a sensitivity analysis by increasing the discount rate, lowering sales multiples and reducing increases in future income. We completed the annual test for impairment during the fourth quarter of 2009 and determined there was no impairment to be recognized in 2009. If the underlying estimates and related assumptions change in the future, we may be required to record impairment charges.

Retirement Plan: The Bank maintains a non-contributory, cash balance pension plan for eligible full-time employees as specified by the plan. Plan assets, which consist primarily of marketable equity securities and corporate and government fixed income securities, are valued using market quotations. The Bank’s actuary determines plan obligations and annual pension expense using a number of key assumptions. Key assumptions may include the discount rate, the interest crediting rate, the estimated future return on plan assets and the anticipated rate of future salary increases. Changes in these assumptions in the future, if any, or in the method under which benefits are calculated may impact pension assets, liabilities or noninterest expense.

Derivative Financial Instruments: During the second quarter of 2010, the Corporation entered into a derivative financial instrument. The Corporation recognizes derivative financial instruments as either an asset or liability in the consolidated balance sheet at fair value in other assets or other liabilities. The derivative financial instrument has been designated as and qualifies as a cash flow hedge. The effective portion of the gain or loss on the cash flow hedge is reported as a component of other comprehensive income, net of deferred income taxes, and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings.

Accounting for Income Taxes: Determining the Corporation’s effective tax rate requires judgment. In the ordinary course of business, there are transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax outcomes are uncertain. In addition, the Corporation’s tax returns are subject to audit by various tax authorities. Although we believe that the estimates are reasonable, no assurance can be given that the final tax outcome will not be materially different than that which is reflected in the income tax provision and accrual.

OVERVIEW

Our primary financial goals are to maximize the Corporation’s earnings and to deploy capital in profitable growth initiatives that will enhance long-term shareholder value. We track three primary financial performance measures in order to assess the level of success in achieving these goals: (i) return on average assets (ROA), (ii) return on average common equity (ROE), and (iii) growth in earnings. In addition to these financial performance measures, we track the performance of the Corporation’s three principal business activities: retail banking, mortgage banking, and consumer finance. We also actively manage our capital through growth and dividends.

Financial Performance Measures

Net income for the Corporation was $1.4 million for the second quarter ended June 30, 2010, compared with $1.8 million for the second quarter of 2009. Net income for the Corporation was $3.1 million for the first six months of 2010, compared with $3.3 million for the first six months of 2009. Net income available to common shareholders was $1.1 million, or $0.36 per common share assuming dilution for the second quarter of 2010, compared with $1.5 million, or $0.48 per common share assuming dilution for the second quarter of 2009. Net income available to common shareholders was $2.6 million, or $0.83 per common share assuming dilution for the first half of 2010, compared to $2.7 million, or $0.89 per common share assuming dilution for the first half of 2009. The difference between reported net income and net income available to common shareholders is a result of the Series A Preferred

Stock dividends and amortization of the Warrant related to the Corporation’s participation in the Capital Purchase Program. The financial results for the second quarter and first six months of 2010 were affected by higher provisions for indemnification losses and lower loan production in the Mortgage Banking segment, continued loan growth and lower net charge-offs in the Consumer Finance segment and higher net interest margin, higher provisions for loan and foreclosed properties losses, and general operating expenses associated with problem assets in the Retail Banking segment.

The Corporation’s ROE and ROA were 6.51 percent and 0.51 percent, respectively, on an annualized basis, for the second quarter of 2010, compared to 8.82 percent and 0.66 percent for the second quarter of 2009. For the first six months of 2010, on an annualized basis, the Corporation’s ROE and ROA were 7.39 percent and 0.59 percent, respectively, compared to 8.25 percent and 0.61 percent, respectively for the first six months of 2009. The decrease in these ratios during 2010 was primarily due to lower earnings available to common shareholders as the Corporation’s results continued to be affected by the challenging economic environment.

Principal Business Activities. An overview of the financial results for each of the Corporation’s principal segments is presented below. A more detailed discussion is included in “Results of Operations.”

Retail Banking: During the second quarter of 2010, the Bank recorded net income of $48,000 compared to a net loss of $447,000 in the second quarter of 2009. During the first six months of 2010, the Bank recorded a net loss of $313,000 compared to a net loss of $308,000 in the first six months of 2009. The results for 2010 included the effects of (1) higher margins attributable to improvements in both interest income, as a result of the establishment of interest rate floors on new loans and loans at renewal, and interest expense, as a result of lower rates paid on deposits, (2) a higher provision for loan losses due to continued weakness in the economy and increases in nonaccrual loans, (3) a higher provision for losses on foreclosed properties and general operating expenses associated with problem assets as property values continued to be depressed and (4) higher personnel costs, including health care costs, due to slight increases in staffing levels.

The Bank’s nonperforming assets were $20.3 million at June 30, 2010, compared to $17.2 million at December 31, 2009. Nonperforming assets at June 30, 2010 included $7.8 million in nonaccrual loans and $12.5 million in foreclosed properties. Nonaccrual loans primarily consisted of six relationships totaling $6.3 million of loans secured by residential properties and commercial loans secured by non-residential properties. Specific reserves of $1.1 million have been established for these loans. Management believes it has provided adequate loan loss reserves for these loans based on the estimated fair values of the collateral. Foreclosed properties at June 30, 2010 primarily consisted of residential properties associated with seven commercial relationships and non-residential properties associated with two commercial relationships. These properties have been written down to their estimated fair values less selling costs.

The Bank’s credit management team directed significant effort throughout 2009 and throughout the first six months of 2010 to real estate loan workouts and restructurings and, when necessary, foreclosures. After thoroughly evaluating the credit quality of the Bank’s loan portfolio and the carrying values of real estate acquired through foreclosure, we have charged off loans, written down foreclosed properties and increased reserves as we considered necessary.

Mortgage Banking: During the second quarter of 2010, C&F Mortgage Corporation recognized a net loss of $938,000 compared to net income of $1.2 million for the quarter ending June 30, 2009, and recognized a net loss of $780,000 for the first six months of 2010 compared to net income of $2.0 million for the first six months of 2009. The net loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 primarily resulted from an increase in the provision for indemnification losses to $2.7 million and $3.2 million, respectively from $474,000 and $1.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, respectively. Foreclosures and payment defaults have continued to remain elevated in the marketplace, resulting in increased demands for loan repurchases and indemnification requests. An indemnification obligation arises when a purchaser of a loan (an investor) sold by the Mortgage Banking segment incurs a loss due to demonstrated borrower misrepresentation, fraud, early default or underwriting errors. The increase in the provision for indemnification losses for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 was due to increased indemnifications throughout 2010 and an agreement reached with one of our investors that resolves all known and unknown indemnification obligations for loans sold to this investor prior to 2010, with the agreement being responsible for the majority of the increase. With this agreement in place, we expect a reduction in future indemnification obligations as the majority of our current indemnification issues were with loans sold to this investor.

In addition, loan origination volumes were considerably lower during 2010, declining to $208.9 million for the second quarter of 2010 from $333.4 million for 2009 and declining to $343.4 million for the first six months of 2010 from $652.3 million in 2009. For the second quarter of 2010, the amount of loan originations for refinancings and home purchases were $37.6 million and $171.3 million, respectively, compared to $171.4 million and $162.0 million, respectively, for the second quarter of 2009. For the first six months of 2010, the amount of loan originations for refinancings and home purchases were $71.2 million and $272.2 million, respectively, compared to $391.4 million and $260.9 million, respectively, for the first six months of 2009. The decrease in originations is a result of the challenging economic conditions, the expiration of the homebuyer tax credits and employee turnover. The increase in the provision for indemnification losses and decline in revenue from gains on sales of loans was partially offset by (1) a $1.1 million decrease for the second quarter of 2010 and a $2.6 million decrease for the six months ended June 30, 2010 in commission-based and

profitability-based personnel costs and (2) a $200,000 decrease for the second quarter of 2010 and a $500,000 decrease for the six months ended June 30, 2010 in the provision for loan losses resulting from a decrease in loans held for investment, decreases in production and lower net charge-offs.

Consumer Finance: Second quarter net income for C&F Finance Company was $2.4 million in 2010, compared to $1.1 million in 2009. Net income for the first six months of 2010 was $4.5 million, compared to $1.8 million for the first six months of 2009. The Consumer Finance segment continues to benefit from loan growth, lower net charge-offs and the low interest rate environment. Loan production has been higher at our existing consumer finance offices, including new markets entered over the past 18 months, resulting in an increase in average loans of 14.4 percent and 13.3 percent for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010. The low interest rate environment has decreased borrowing costs as part of the funding costs for the segment is through a variable-rate line of credit indexed to LIBOR. Lower net charge-offs are a result of prudent underwriting guidelines, enhanced collection efforts and higher proceeds received when repossessed vehicles are sold as a result of stronger demand for used vehicles. Lower delinquencies and lower net charge-offs contributed to a $950,000 decrease for the second quarter of 2010 and a $2.0 million decrease for the first six months of 2010 in the provision for loan losses. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of loans remained approximately the same, 7.90 percent at June 30, 2010 compared to 7.89 percent at December 31, 2009. Management believes that the current allowance for loan losses is adequate to absorb probable losses in the loan portfolio.

Other and Eliminations: The net loss for the second quarter 2010 for this combined segment was $123,000, compared to a net loss of $55,000 for the second quarter of 2009. The net loss for the first six months of 2010 was $250,000, compared to a net loss of $228,000 for the first six months of 2009. Revenue and expense of this combined segment include the results of operations of our investment, insurance and title subsidiaries, dividends received on the Corporation’s investment in equity securities, interest expense associated with the Corporation’s trust preferred capital notes and other general corporate expenses. The increase in the net loss resulted primarily from lower earnings at the title company.

Capital Management. Total shareholders’ equity increased $1.7 million to $90.6 million at June 30, 2010, compared to $88.9 million at December 31, 2009. Earnings during the first six months of 2010 gave rise to this growth.

We have continued to manage our capital through asset growth and dividends on common shares outstanding. The capital and liquidity positions of the Corporation remain strong. The Corporation continues to participate in the federal government’s Capital Purchase Program (CPP), which was seen as an opportunity to inexpensively increase capital and to insure against unforeseen events given the turmoil in the financial markets. Even though capital has continued to increase, and to exceed regulatory capital standards for being well-capitalized, the Corporation has not yet repurchased these securities. It is our belief that the Corporation should keep the funds in place until the financial markets and economy have stabilized.

Another means by which we manage our capital is through dividends. The Corporation’s board of directors continued its policy of paying dividends in 2010. The dividend payout ratio for the second quarter of 2010 was 69.4 percent based on net income available to common shareholders. The board of directors continues to evaluate our dividend payout in light of changes in economic conditions, our capital levels and our expected future levels of earnings. However, in connection with the Corporation’s participation in the CPP there are limitations on the Corporation’s ability to pay quarterly cash dividends in excess of $0.31 per share or to repurchase its common stock prior to the earlier of January 9, 2012 or the date on which Treasury no longer holds any of the Series A Preferred Stock.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following table presents the average balance sheets, the amounts of interest earned on earning assets, with related yields, and interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities, with related rates, for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009. Loans include loans held for sale. Loans placed on a nonaccrual status are included in the balances and are included in the computation of yields, but had no material effect. Interest on tax-exempt loans and securities is presented on a taxable-equivalent basis (which converts the income on loans and investments for which no income taxes are paid to the equivalent yield as if income taxes were paid using the federal corporate income tax rate of 35 percent).

Interest income and expense are affected by fluctuations in interest rates, by changes in the volume of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, and by the interaction of rate and volume factors. The following table presents the direct causes of the period-to-period changes in the components of net interest income on a taxable-equivalent basis. We calculated the rate and volume variances using a formula prescribed by the SEC. Rate/volume variances, the third element in the calculation, are not shown separately in the table, but are allocated to the rate and volume variances in proportion to the relationship of the absolute dollar amounts of the change in each. Loans include both nonaccrual loans and loans held for sale.

Net interest income, on a taxable-equivalent basis, for the second quarter of 2010 was $14.6 million, compared to $12.7 million for the second quarter of 2009. Net interest income, on a taxable-equivalent basis, for the first half of 2010 was $28.4 million, compared

to $24.5 million for the first half of 2009. The higher net interest income resulted from a 101 basis point increase in net interest margin offset in part by a 1.0 percent decline in average earning assets for the second quarter of 2010 compared to the second quarter of 2009 and a 105 basis point increase in net interest margin offset in part by a 1.1 percent decline in average earning assets for the six months ended June 30, 2010 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2009. The increase for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 in net interest margin was principally a result of an increase in the yield on loans and a decrease in the rates paid on time and savings deposits offset by an increase in the rates paid on borrowings. The increase in the yield on loans was primarily a result of the changing mix of loans resulting from a decrease in lower yielding average loans at the Retail Banking and Mortgage Banking segments and an increase in the higher yielding loans at the Consumer Finance segment. In addition, an increase in the yields on loans at the Retail Banking segment resulted from the repricing of loans and implementation of interest rate floors on loans at renewal. The decrease in rates paid on time and savings deposits was primarily a result of the repricing of higher rate certificates of deposit as they matured. The increase in rates paid on borrowings was a result of the change in the mix of borrowings resulting from a decrease in average lower cost short-term borrowings.

Average loans includes both loans held for investment and loans held for sale. Loans held for investment decreased $3.5 million and $7.4 million during the second quarter and the first six months of 2010, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2009. The Retail Banking segment’s average loans held for investment portfolio decreased $28.4 million during the second quarter of 2010 and $29.3 million in the first six months of 2010, compared to the same periods in 2009, primarily as the economic recession reduced loan demand and resulted in an increase in loans charged-off or foreclosed upon. Despite the reduction in average loans, the Retail Banking segment was able to increase its yield for the second quarter of 2010 and first six months of 2010, compared to 2009, through increases in interest rates and the implementation of interest rate floors on new or renewing adjustable rate loans in the latter half of 2009 and first half of 2010. The Consumer Finance segment’s average loans held for investment portfolio increased $25.5 million during the second quarter of 2010 compared to the second quarter of 2009 and increased $23.1 million for the first six months of 2010 compared to the first six months of 2009 as result of overall growth at existing and new locations. The Consumer Finance segment’s loans are typically higher yielding than other loans in our portfolio. Average loans held for sale at the Mortgage Banking segment decreased $20.3 million during the second quarter of 2010 compared to the second quarter of 2009 and decreased $30.4 million for the first half of 2010 compared to the first half of 2009 as loan origination volume declined since 2009. The yield on the Mortgage Banking segment’s loans has increased however as interest rates on average have risen since 2009. The overall yield on loans increased 99 basis points to 9.38 percent and 113 basis points to 9.36 percent for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2009, as a result of the shift in the mix of the portfolio from lower yielding loans held in our Retail Banking and Mortgage Banking segments to higher yielding loans in our Consumer Finance segment.

Average securities available for sale increased $11.4 million during the second quarter of 2010, and $13.3 million in the first half of 2010, compared to the same periods in 2009. The increase in securities available for sale occurred predominantly in the Retail Banking segment’s municipal bond portfolio. This resulted from a strategy to increase the Bank’s securities portfolio as a percentage of total assets. The lower yields in the second quarter and first half of 2010, in relation to the same periods in 2009, resulted from the current interest rate environment in which securities purchases were made at yields less than the yields on those securities being called, matured or sold.

Average interest-bearing deposits in other banks increased $4.1 million during the second quarter of 2010 and $15.0 million in the first half of 2010, compared to the same periods in 2009. The increase resulted from reduced loan demand, coupled with deposit growth.

Average interest-bearing time and savings deposits increased $23.0 million during the second quarter of 2010 and $29.9 million in the first half of 2010, compared to the same periods in 2009. The mix in interest-bearing time and savings deposits has been shifting from shorter-term, lower yielding money market deposits to longer-term, higher yielding certificates of deposits. In addition, growth in time deposits occurred in deposits of municipalities in our market areas and of retail depositors who are maintaining flexibility in their investing options while seeking more stable returns on their investments. The average cost of deposits declined 58 basis points during the second quarter of 2010 and 63 basis points in the first half of 2010 in relation to the same periods in 2009. The second quarter and first half of 2010 has benefited from the lower rates on time deposits that matured and repriced throughout 2009 and into 2010.

Average borrowings decreased $27.0 million during the second quarter of 2010 and $35.4 million in the first half of 2010, compared to the same periods in 2009. This decrease was attributable to reduced funding needs as average loans outstanding declined and average deposits increased as noted above. The average cost of borrowings increased 32 basis points during the second quarter of 2010 and 31 basis points in the first half of 2010, in relation to the same periods in 2009, as a result of a change in the composition of borrowings, which resulted from the pay down of lower-cost short-term variable-rate borrowings due to increased liquidity provided by lower loan demand and deposit growth.

The decreases primarily resulted from (1) decreased gains on sales of loans and ancillary fees associated with lower loan originations in the Mortgage Banking segment and (2) a one-time fee received in 2009, recorded in other income, in connection with a change in the debit card processor in the Retail Banking segment. These decreases were offset by increases in other service charges primarily due to higher bank card interchange fees and increases in other income primarily due to changes in the fair market value of deferred compensation plan assets in the Retail Banking segment.

Total noninterest expense increased $901,000, or 5.9 percent, to $16.2 million during the second quarter of 2010 and $7,000 to $29.8 million in the first half of 2010, compared to the same periods in 2009. Other expenses at the Mortgage Banking segment include a $2.7 million and $3.2 million provision for indemnification losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively, compared to $474,000 and $1.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, respectively. The increase in the provision for indemnification losses was due to increased indemnifications throughout 2010 and an agreement reached with one of the Mortgage Banking segment’s investors that resolves all known and unknown indemnification obligations for loans sold to this investor prior to 2010, with the agreement being responsible for the majority of the increase. With this agreement in place, we expect a reduction in future indemnification obligations as the majority of our current indemnification issues were with loans sold to this investor. The Mortgage Banking segment reported lower salaries and employee benefits expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 compared to 2009 as a result of a decline in loan originations and profitability. Salaries and employee benefits expenses in the Retail Banking segment increased for the three and six months of 2010 compared to 2009 as a result of increased staffing levels and health care costs. Other expenses in the Retail Banking segment include increases in costs associated with foreclosed properties for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, offset by the 2009 FDIC special assessment and higher bank card processing expenses in 2009. An increase in salaries and employee benefits expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 at the Consumer Finance segment was a result of staff additions to support loan growth.

Income Taxes

Income tax expense for the second quarter of 2010 totaled $315,000, resulting in an effective tax rate of 18.2 percent, compared to $640,000, or 26.8 percent, for the second quarter of 2009. Income tax expense for the first half of 2010 totaled $891,000, resulting in

 

27


Table of Contents

an effective tax rate of 22.1 percent, compared to $1.0 million, or 24.2 percent, for the first half of 2009. The decrease in the effective tax rate during 2010 was a result of lower earnings at C&F Mortgage which is not exempt from state income taxes and higher earnings on the Bank’s municipal bond portfolio, which generates tax-exempt interest income.

ASSET QUALITY

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses represents an amount that, in our judgment, will be adequate to absorb any losses on existing loans that may become uncollectible. The provision for loan losses increases the allowance, and loans charged off, net of recoveries, reduce the allowance. The following tables summarize the allowance activity for the periods indicated:

The allowance for loan losses at the combined Retail Banking and Mortgage Banking segments decreased $218,000 since December 31, 2009. The change in the balance of the allowance for loan losses in the combined segments resulted from higher net charge-offs and lower overall loan balances offset by increases in nonaccrual loans. The allowance for loan losses to total loans remained relatively flat at 2.05 percent at June 30, 2010 compared to 2.03 percent at December 31, 2009. Net charge-offs for these combined segments for the first half of 2010 included write downs of collateral-dependent commercial relationships based on an impairment analysis, which indicated that their respective carrying values exceeded the fair market value of the underlying real estate collateral. The provision for loan losses at these combined segments decreased $150,000 to $1.5 million for the second quarter of 2010 compared to 2009 while remaining flat at $2.6 million for the first half of both 2010 and 2009.

Nonperforming assets at the Retail Banking segment increased to $20.3 million at June 30, 2010 from $17.2 million at December 31, 2009. Nonperforming assets at June 30, 2010 included $7.8 million in nonaccrual loans and $12.5 million in foreclosed properties. Nonaccrual loans primarily consisted of six relationships totaling $6.3 million of loans secured by residential properties and commercial loans secured by non-residential properties. Specific reserves of $1.1 million have been established for these loans. Management believes it has provided adequate loan loss reserves for these loans based on the collateral and estimated fair values. Foreclosed properties at June 30, 2010 primarily consisted of residential properties associated with seven commercial relationships and non-residential properties associated with two commercial relationships. These properties have been written down to their estimated fair values less cost to sell. Nonaccrual loans and foreclosed properties of the Mortgage Banking segment totaled zero and $509,000, respectively, at June 30, 2010, and resulted primarily from loans that were repurchased from investors because of documentation issues. Accruing loans past due for 90 days or more at the combined Retail and Mortgage Banking segments decreased $262,000 to $189,000 at June 30, 2010. We believe that the current level of the allowance for loan losses is adequate to absorb any losses on existing loans that may become uncollectible. Depending on the effects of future economic conditions, or changes in our loan portfolio, a higher provision for loan losses may become necessary.

Table of Contents

The Consumer Finance segment’s allowance for loan losses increased $1.3 million to $16.3 million since December 31, 2009. The increase in the allowance for loan losses was driven by an increase in the Consumer Finance segment’s loans outstanding. The Consumer Finance segment’s provision for loan losses decreased $950,000 and $2.0 million in the second quarter of 2010 and first six months of 2010, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2009. The decrease in the provision for loan losses was primarily attributable to lower delinquencies and net charge-offs in both the second quarter and first half of 2010. The decreases in delinquencies and net charge-offs are a result of prudent underwriting practices, enhanced collection efforts and a stronger used vehicle market which resulted in higher resale values for repossessed vehicles.

C&F Finance’s loan portfolio can be immediately adversely affected by the ongoing effects of the economic recession. We believe that the current level of the allowance for loan losses at C&F Finance is adequate to absorb any losses on existing loans that may become uncollectible. However, if unemployment stays elevated or increases in the future and if consumer demand for automobiles falls and results in declining values of automobiles securing outstanding loans, a higher provision for loan losses may become necessary.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

At June 30, 2010, the Corporation had total assets of $904.1 million compared to $888.4 million at December 31, 2009. The increase was principally a result of increases in loans held for sale and slight growth in the securities available for sale portfolio, offset by a decrease in interest-bearing deposits in other banks.

Loan Portfolio

The following table sets forth the composition of the Corporation’s loans held for investment in dollar amounts and as a percentage of the Corporation’s total gross loans held for investment at the dates indicated.

Includes loans secured by real estate for builder lines, acquisition and development and commercial development, as well as commercial loans secured by personal property.

Loans held for investment have remained flat compared to December 31, 2009. Increases in the consumer finance category was a result of increased demand for automobile loans, which was offset by decreases in commercial, financial and agricultural loans as a result of foreclosures, charge-offs and reduced demand due to the continued challenging economic environment.

Investment Securities

The investment portfolio plays a primary role in the management of the Corporation’s interest rate sensitivity. In addition, the portfolio serves as a source of liquidity and is used as needed to meet collateral requirements. The investment portfolio consists of securities available for sale, which may be sold in response to changes in market interest rates, changes in prepayment risk, increased loan demand, general liquidity needs and other similar factors. These securities are carried at estimated fair value.

Deposits

The Corporation’s predominant source of funds is depository accounts, which are comprised of demand deposits, savings and money market accounts, and time deposits. The Corporation’s deposits are principally provided by individuals and businesses located within the communities served.

Deposits totaled $614.6 million at June 30, 2010, compared to $606.6 million at December 31, 2009. The Corporation had no brokered certificates of deposit outstanding at June 30, 2010 or December 31, 2009. The mix in deposits has been shifting from shorter-term, lower yielding money market deposits to longer-term, higher yielding certificates of deposits. The increase in total deposits occurred in deposits of commercial depositors and retail depositors who are maintaining flexibility in their investing options while seeking more stable returns on their investments.

Borrowings

Borrowings totaled $177.1 million at June 30, 2010, compared to $170.8 million at December 31, 2009. The growth in borrowings is primarily due to growth in loans held for sale.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of June 30, 2010, there have been no material changes to the off-balance sheet arrangements disclosed in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis” in the Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Contractual Obligations

As of June 30, 2010, there have been no material changes outside the ordinary course of business to the contractual obligations disclosed in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis” in the Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Liquidity

Liquid assets, which include cash and due from banks, interest-bearing deposits in other banks and nonpledged securities available for sale, at June 30, 2010 totaled $55.0 million, compared to $67.7 million at December 31, 2009. The Corporation’s funding sources, including the capacity, amount outstanding and amount available at June 30, 2010 are presented in Table 10.

(1)

The Corporation amended the revolving line of credit agreement effective July 1, 2010. Among other changes, the amendment extended the maturity date from July 31, 2012 to July 31, 2014 and increased the rate of interest from LIBOR plus a range of 175 basis points to 180 basis points to LIBOR plus a range of 200 basis points to 225 basis points, depending upon the average balance outstanding on the line.

We have no reason to believe these arrangements will not be renewed at maturity. Additional loans and securities are available that can be pledged as collateral for future borrowings from the Federal Reserve Bank above the current lendable collateral value.

As a result of the Corporation’s management of liquid assets and the ability to generate liquidity through liability funding, management believes that the Corporation maintains overall liquidity sufficient to satisfy its operational requirements and contractual obligations.

Effects of Inflation

The effect of changing prices on financial institutions is typically different from other industries as the Corporation’s assets and liabilities are monetary in nature. Interest rates are significantly impacted by inflation, but neither the timing nor the magnitude of the changes is directly related to price level indices. The effects of inflation on interest rates, loan demand and deposits are reflected in the consolidated financial statements.

 

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

There have been no significant changes from the quantitative and qualitative disclosures made in the Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Corporation’s management, including the Corporation’s Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Corporation’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Corporation’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2010 to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Corporation in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Corporation’s management, including the Corporation’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that the Corporation’s disclosure controls and procedures will detect or uncover every situation involving the failure of persons within the Corporation or its subsidiary to disclose material information required to be set forth in the Corporation’s periodic reports.

Management of the Corporation is also responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). There were no changes in the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting during the Corporation’s second quarter ended June 30, 2010 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

 

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

The Dodd-Frank Act could increase our regulatory compliance burden and associated costs, place restrictions on certain products and services, and limit our future capital raising strategies.

A wide range of regulatory initiatives directed at the financial services industry have been proposed in recent months. One of those initiatives, the Dodd-Frank Act, was signed into law on July 21, 2010. The Dodd-Frank Act represents a sweeping overhaul of the financial services industry within the United States and mandates significant changes in the financial regulatory landscape that will impact all financial institutions, including the Corporation. The Dodd-Frank Act will likely increase our regulatory compliance burden and may have a material adverse effect on us, by increasing the costs associated with our regulatory examinations and compliance measures. However, it is too early to fully assess the impact of the Dodd-Frank Act and subsequent regulatory rulemaking processes on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

Among the Dodd-Frank Act’s significant regulatory changes, the act creates a new financial consumer protection agency that could impose new regulations on us and include its examiners in our routine regulatory examinations conducted by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, which could increase our regulatory compliance burden and costs and restrict the financial products and services we can offer to our customers. The act increases regulatory supervision and examination of bank holding companies and their banking and non-banking subsidiaries, which could increase our regulatory compliance burden and costs and restrict our ability to generate revenues from non-banking operations. The act imposes more stringent capital requirements on bank holding companies, which could limit our future capital strategies. The act also increases regulation of derivatives and hedging transactions, which could limit our ability to enter into, or increase the costs associated with, interest rate hedging transactions.

Other than the additional risk factor mentioned above, there have been no material changes in the risk factors faced by the Corporation from those disclosed under Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in the Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

 

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

There have been no purchases of the Corporation’s Common Stock during 2010.

In connection with the Corporation’s sale to the Treasury of its Series A Preferred Stock and Warrant under the Capital Purchase Program, there are limitations on the Corporation’s ability to purchase Common Stock prior to the earlier of January 9, 2012 or the date on which Treasury no longer holds any of the Series A Preferred Stock. Prior to such time, the Corporation generally may not purchase any Common Stock without the consent of the Treasury.
