PART I
ITEM 1. | BUSINESS |
MVB Financial Corp., or MVB, was formed on January 1, 2004 as a bank holding company. MVB Bank, Inc., or the Bank, was formed on October 30, 1997 and chartered under the laws of the state of West Virginia. The Bank commenced operations on January 4, 1999. During the fourth quarter of 2004, MVB formed two second-tier holding companies MVB Marion, Inc. and MVB Harrison, Inc., which have since been merged to form MVB Central, Inc. to manage the banking operations of MVB, the sole bank subsidiary, in those markets. In August of 2005, MVB opened a full service office in neighboring Harrison County. During October of 2005 MVB purchased a branch office in Jefferson County, situated in West Virginias eastern panhandle. In 2006 MVB formed another second-tier holding company, MVB East, Inc. to manage the banking operations of MVB in the Jefferson and Berkeley county markets.
MVB operates five offices, two of which are located in Marion County, the main office located at 301 Virginia Avenue in Fairmont and a branch office at 2500 Fairmont Avenue inside the Shop N Save Supermarket in White Hall, WV. The remaining offices are located at 1000 Johnson Avenue in Bridgeport, Harrison County, 88 Somerset Boulevard in Charles Town, Jefferson County and 651 Foxcroft Avenue in Martinsburg, Berkeley County. At December 31, 2009, MVB had total assets of $352.8 million, total loans of $232.8 million, total deposits of $264.5 million and total stockholders equity of $27.1 million.
MVBs business activities are currently confined to a single segment which is community banking. As a community banking entity, MVB offers its customers a full range of products through various delivery channels. Such products and services include checking accounts, NOW accounts, money market and savings accounts, time certificates of deposit, commercial, installment, commercial real estate and residential real estate mortgage loans, debit cards, and safe deposit rental facilities. Services are provided through our walk-in offices, automated teller machines (ATMs), drive-in facilities, and internet and telephone banking. Additionally, MVB offers non-deposit investment products through an association with a broker-dealer.
At December 31, 2009, MVB had 73 full-time and 13 part-time employees. MVBs principal office is located at 301 Virginia Avenue, Fairmont, West Virginia 26554, and its telephone number is (304) 363-4800. MVBs Internet web site is www.mvbbanking.com.
Since the opening date of January 4, 1999, MVB has experienced significant growth in assets, loans, and deposits due to overwhelming community and customer support in the Marion and Harrison county markets, and expansion into West Virginias eastern panhandle.
During 2009, MVB continued to focus on growth in the Harrison, Berkeley and Jefferson County areas as the primary method for reaching performance goals. MVB continuously reviews key performance indicators to measure our success.
Market Area
MVBs primary market areas are the Marion, Harrison, Jefferson and Berkeley Counties of West Virginia, which includes a total of 97 banking facilities. Its extended market is in the adjacent counties.
United States Census Bureau data indicates that the Fairmont and Marion County, West Virginia populations have had somewhat different trends from 1980 to 2000. The population of Fairmont has fluctuated from 23,863 in 1980; 20,210 in 1990 and 19,097 in 2000, or a net decline of 4,766 or 20.0%. Marion County increased its population from 1980 to 1990, 55,789 to 57,249, and decreased to 56,598 in 2000. These changes resulted in a net increase of 1.45%. The Marion County population includes that of Fairmont. The result is that over the last 20 years, there has not been any significant change in population. Harrison Countys population has decreased from 69,371 in 1990 to 68,652 in 2000, while Bridgeports population has increased from 7,306 in 2000 to an estimated 7,598 in 2006, indicating that while population change in Harrison County has been
4
relatively flat, the Bridgeport area is growing. The population in Jefferson County has been on the rise in recent years, increasing from 42,190 in 2000 to 49,206 in 2005. During this period, Charles Town has seen an increase in population of 16.6%. Berkeley Countys population has grown from 75,905 in 2000 to an estimated 101,763 in 2007, making it the second-most populous county in West Virginia.
Unemployment in Marion County has improved compared to that of the State of West Virginia from November 1995 through December 2009. As of December 2009, the overall state rate was 8.6% compared to 6.6% for Marion County. During this same period of time, the Marion County Unemployment Rate has decreased from 8.9% to 6.6%, while the West Virginia rate increased from 7.5% to 8.6%. At December 31, 2009, Harrison, Jefferson and Berkeley counties showed unemployment rates of 7.5%, 6.5% and 9.6%, respectively. Marion, Harrison and Jefferson Countys rates are better than the state average, and Berkeley Countys rate is worse than the state average. The future direction of unemployment will probably be driven by what occurs economically on a national level.
MVB originates various types of loans, including commercial and commercial real estate loans, residential real estate loans, home equity lines of credit, real estate construction loans, and consumer loans (loans to individuals). In general, MVB retains most of its originated loans (exclusive of certain long-term, fixed rate residential mortgages that are sold servicing released). However, loans originated in excess of MVBs legal lending limit are participated to other banking institutions and the servicing of those loans is retained by MVB. MVB has no loans to foreign entities. MVBs lending market area is primarily concentrated in the Marion, Harrison and Jefferson Counties of West Virginia.
Commercial Loans
At December 31, 2009, MVB had outstanding approximately $152.4 million in commercial loans, including commercial, commercial real estate, financial and agricultural loans. These loans represented approximately 65.5% of the total aggregate loan portfolio as of that date.
Lending Practices. Commercial lending entails significant additional risks as compared with consumer lending (i.e., single-family residential mortgage lending, and installment lending). In addition, the payment experience on commercial loans typically depends on adequate cash flow of a business and thus may be subject, to a greater extent, to adverse conditions in the general economy or in a specific industry. Loan terms include amortization schedules commensurate with the purpose of each loan, the source of repayment and the risk involved. The primary analysis technique used in determining whether to grant a commercial loan is the review of a schedule of estimated cash flows to evaluate whether anticipated future cash flows will be adequate to service both interest and principal due. In addition, MVB reviews collateral to determine its value in relation to the loan in the event of a foreclosure.
MVB evaluates all new commercial loans, and on an annual basis mortgage loans in excess of $300,000, as well as customers that have total outstanding loans that aggregate more than $500,000. If deterioration in credit worthiness has occurred, MVB takes effective and prompt action designed to assure repayment of the loan. Upon detection of the reduced ability of a borrower to meet original cash flow obligations, the loan is considered a classified loan and reviewed for possible downgrading or placement on non-accrual status.
Consumer Loans
At December 31, 2009, MVB had outstanding consumer loans in an aggregate amount of approximately $12.9 million or approximately 5.5% of the aggregate total loan portfolio.
Lending Practices. Consumer loans generally involve more risk as to collectibility than mortgage loans because of the type and nature of the collateral and, in certain instances, the absence of collateral. As a result, consumer lending collections are dependent upon the borrowers continued financial stability, and thus are more likely to be adversely affected by employment loss, personal bankruptcy, or adverse economic
5
conditions. Credit approval for consumer loans requires demonstration of sufficiency of income to repay principal and interest due, stability of employment, a positive credit record and sufficient collateral for secured loans. It is the policy of MVB to review its consumer loan portfolio monthly and to charge off loans that do not meet its standards and to adhere strictly to all laws and regulations governing consumer lending.
Real Estate Loans
At December 31, 2009, MVB had approximately $67.5 million of residential real estate loans, home equity lines of credit, and construction mortgages outstanding, representing 29.0% of total loans outstanding.
Lending Practices. MVB generally requires that the residential real estate loan amount be no more than 80% of the purchase price or the appraised value of the real estate securing the loan, unless the borrower obtains private mortgage insurance for the percentage exceeding 80%. Occasionally, MVB may lend up to 100% of the appraised value of the real estate. The risk conditions of these loans are considered during underwriting for the purposes of establishing an interest rate compatible with the risks inherent in mortgage lending and based on the equity of the home. Loans made in this lending category are generally one to five year adjustable rate, fully amortizing to maturity mortgages. MVB also originates fixed rate real estate loans and generally sells these loans in the secondary market, servicing released. All real estate loans are secured by first mortgages with evidence of title in favor of MVB in the form of an attorneys opinion of the title or a title insurance policy. MVB also requires proof of hazard insurance with MVB named as the mortgagee and as the loss payee. Generally, full appraisals are obtained from licensed appraisers for all loans secured by real estate.
Home Equity Loans. Home equity lines of credit are generally made as second mortgages by MVB. The maximum amount of a home equity line of credit is generally limited to 80% of the appraised value of the property less the balance of the first mortgage. MVB will lend up to 100% of the appraised value of the property at higher interest rates which are considered compatible with the additional risk assumed in these types of loans. The home equity lines of credit are written with 10 year terms, but are subject to review upon request for renewal.
Construction Loans. Construction financing is generally considered to involve a higher degree of risk of loss than long-term financing on improved, occupied real estate. Risk of loss on a construction loan is dependent largely upon the accuracy of the initial estimate of the propertys value at completion of construction and the estimated cost (including interest) of construction. If the estimate of construction cost proves to be inaccurate, MVB may advance funds beyond the amount originally committed to permit completion of the project.
Competition
MVB experiences significant competition in attracting depositors and borrowers. Competition in lending activities comes principally from other commercial banks, savings associations, insurance companies, governmental agencies, credit unions, brokerage firms and pension funds. The primary factors in competing for loans are interest rate and overall lending services. Competition for deposits comes from other commercial banks, savings associations, money market funds and credit unions as well as from insurance companies and brokerage firms. The primary factors in competing for deposits are interest rates paid on deposits, account liquidity, convenience of office location, and overall financial condition. MVB believes that its community approach provides flexibility, which enables the bank to offer an array of banking products and services.
MVB primarily focuses on the Marion, Harrison, Jefferson and Berkeley County markets for its products and services. Management believes MVB has developed a niche and a level of expertise in serving this area.
6
MVB operates under a needs-based selling approach that management believes has proven successful in serving the financial needs of most customers. It is not MVBs strategy to compete solely on the basis of interest rates. Management believes that a focus on customer relationships and service will promote our customers continued use of MVBs financial products and services and will lead to enhanced revenue opportunities.
Supervision and Regulation
The following is a summary of certain statutes and regulations affecting MVB and its subsidiaries and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such statutes and regulations:
Bank Holding Company Regulation. MVB is a bank holding company under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, which restricts the activities of MVB and any acquisition by MVB of voting stock or assets of any bank, savings association or other company. MVB is also subject to the reporting requirements of, and examination and regulation by, the Federal Reserve Board. MVBs subsidiary bank, MVB Bank, Inc., is subject to restrictions imposed by the Federal Reserve Act on transactions with affiliates, including any loans or extensions of credit to MVB or its subsidiaries, investments in the stock or other securities thereof and the taking of such stock or securities as collateral for loans to any borrower; the issuance of guarantees, acceptances or letters of credit on behalf of MVB and its subsidiaries; purchases or sales of securities or other assets; and the payment of money or furnishing of services to MVB and other subsidiaries. MVB is prohibited from acquiring direct or indirect control of more than 5% of any class of voting stock or substantially all of the assets of any bank holding company without the prior approval of the Federal Reserve Board. MVB and its subsidiaries are prohibited from engaging in certain tying arrangements in connection with extensions of credit and/or the provision of other property or services to a customer by MVB or its subsidiaries.
On July 30, 2002, the Senate and the House of Representatives of the United States (Congress) enacted the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, a law that addresses, among other issues, corporate governance, auditing and accounting, executive compensation, and enhanced and timely disclosure of corporate information. The New York Stock Exchange proposed corporate governance rules that were enacted by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The changes are intended to allow stockholders to more easily and efficiently monitor the performance of companies and directors and should not significantly impact MVB.
Effective August 29, 2002, as directed by Section 302(a) of Sarbanes-Oxley, MVBs chief executive officer and chief financial officer are each required to certify that MVBs Quarterly and Annual Reports do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact. The rules have several requirements, including having these officers certify that: they are responsible for establishing, maintaining and regularly evaluating the effectiveness of MVBs internal controls; they have made certain disclosures to MVBs auditors and the audit committee of the Board of Directors about MVBs internal controls; and they have included information in MVBs Quarterly and Annual Reports about their evaluation and whether there have been significant changes in MVBs internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to the evaluation.
The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (also known as the Financial Services Modernization Act of 1999) permits bank holding companies to become financial holding companies. This allows them to affiliate with securities firms and insurance companies and to engage in other activities that are financial in nature. A bank holding company may become a financial holding company if each of its subsidiary banks is well capitalized, is well managed and has at least a satisfactory rating under the Community Reinvestment Act. No regulatory approval will be required for a financial holding company to acquire a company, other than a bank or savings association, engaged in activities that are financial in nature or incidental to activities that are financial in nature, as determined by the Federal Reserve Board.
The Financial Services Modernization Act defines financial in nature to include: securities underwriting, dealing and market making; sponsoring mutual funds and
7
investment companies; insurance underwriting and agency; merchant banking activities; and activities that the Federal Reserve Board has determined to be closely related to banking. A bank also may engage, subject to limitations on investment, in activities that are financial in nature, other than insurance underwriting, insurance company portfolio investment, real estate development and real estate investment, through a financial subsidiary of the bank, if the bank is well capitalized, well managed and has at least a satisfactory Community Reinvestment Act rating.
Banking Subsidiary Regulation. MVB Bank, Inc. was chartered as a state bank and is regulated by the West Virginia Division of Banking and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The Bank provides FDIC insurance on its deposits and is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh.
International Money Laundering Abatement and Anti-Terrorist Financing Act of 2001 (USA Patriot Act)
The International Money Laundering Abatement and Anti-Terrorist Financing Act of 2001 (the Patriot Act) was adopted in response to the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. The Patriot Act provides law enforcement with greater powers to investigate terrorism and prevent future terrorist acts. Among the broad-reaching provisions contained in the Patriot Act are several designed to deter terrorists ability to launder money in the United States and provide law enforcement with additional powers to investigate how terrorists and terrorist organizations are financed. The Patriot Act creates additional requirements for banks, which were already subject to similar regulations. The Patriot Act authorizes the Secretary of the Treasury to require financial institutions to take certain special measures when the Secretary suspects that certain transactions or accounts are related to money laundering. These special measures may be ordered when the Secretary suspects that a jurisdiction outside of the United States, a financial institution operating outside of the United States, a class of transactions involving a jurisdiction outside of the United States or certain types of accounts are of primary money laundering concern. The special measures include the following: (a) require financial institutions to keep records and report on the transactions or accounts at issue; (b) require financial institutions to obtain and retain information related to the beneficial ownership of any account opened or maintained by foreign persons; (c)require financial institutions to identify each customer who is permitted to use a payable-through or correspondent account and obtain certain information from each customer permitted to use the account; and (d) prohibit or impose conditions on the opening or maintaining of correspondent or payable-through accounts.
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
The FDIC insures the deposits of the Bank which is subject to the applicable provisions of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act. The FDIC may terminate a banks deposit insurance upon finding that the institution has engaged in unsafe or unsound practices, is in an unsafe or unsound condition to continue operations, or has violated any applicable law, regulation, rule, order or condition enacted or imposed by the banks regulatory agency.
Federal Home Loan Bank
The FHLB provides credit to its members in the form of advances. As a member of the FHLB of Pittsburgh, the Bank must maintain an investment in the capital stock of that FHLB in an amount equal to the greater of 1.0% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of its respective residential mortgage loans, home purchase contracts and similar obligations at the beginning of each year, or 5% of its advances from the FHLB.
Capital Requirements
Federal Reserve Board. The Federal Reserve Board has adopted risk-based capital guidelines for bank holding companies. The risk-based capital guidelines include both a definition of capital and a framework for calculating risk-weighted assets by assigning assets and off-balance sheet items to broad risk categories. For further discussion
8
regarding the Banks risk-based capital requirements, see Note 14 of the Notes to the Financial Statements included in Item 7 of this Form 10-K.
West Virginia Division of Banking. State banks, such as MVB Bank, Inc. are subject to similar capital requirements adopted by the West Virginia Division of Banking.
Limits on Dividends
MVBs ability to obtain funds for the payment of dividends and for other cash requirements largely depends on the amount of dividends the Bank declares. However, the Federal Reserve Board expects MVB to serve as a source of strength to the Bank. The Federal Reserve Board may require MVB to retain capital for further investment in the Bank, rather than pay dividends to its shareholders. MVB Bank, Inc. may not pay dividends to MVB if, after paying those dividends, the Bank would fail to meet the required minimum levels under the risk-based capital guidelines and the minimum leverage ratio requirements. The Bank must have the approval from the West Virginia Department of Banking if a dividend in any year would cause the total dividends for that year to exceed the sum of the current years net earnings as defined and the retained earnings for the preceding two years as defined, less required transfers to surplus. These provisions could limit MVBs ability to pay dividends on its outstanding common shares.
Federal and State Consumer Laws
MVB Bank, Inc. is subject to regulatory oversight under various consumer protection and fair lending laws. These laws govern, among other things, truth-in-lending disclosure, equal credit opportunity, fair credit reporting and community reinvestment. Failure to abide by federal laws and regulations governing community reinvestment could limit the ability of a bank to open a new branch or engage in a merger transaction. Community reinvestment regulations evaluate how well and to what extent a bank lends and invests in its designated service area, with particular emphasis on low-to-moderate income communities and borrowers in such areas.
Monetary Policy and Economic Conditions
The business of financial institutions is affected not only by general economic conditions, but also by the policies of various governmental regulatory agencies, including the Federal Reserve Board. The Federal Reserve Board regulates money and credit conditions and interest rates to influence general economic conditions primarily through open market operations in U.S. government securities, changes in the discount rate on bank borrowings and changes in the reserve requirements against depository institutions deposits. These policies and regulations significantly affect the overall growth and distribution of loans, investments and deposits, and the interest rates charged on loans, as well as the interest rates paid on deposit accounts.
The monetary policies of the Federal Reserve Board have had a significant effect on the operating results of financial institutions in the past and are expected to continue to have significant effects in the future. In view of the changing conditions in the economy and the money markets and the activities of monetary and fiscal authorities, MVB cannot predict future changes in interest rates, credit availability or deposit levels.
Effect of Environmental Regulation
MVBs primary exposure to environmental risk is through its lending activities. In cases when management believes environmental risk potentially exists, MVB mitigates its environmental risk exposures by requiring environmental site assessments at the time of loan origination to confirm collateral quality as to commercial real estate parcels posing higher than normal potential for environmental impact, as determined by reference to present and past uses of the subject property and adjacent sites. Environmental assessments are typically required prior to any foreclosure activity involving non-residential real estate collateral.
9
With regard to residential real estate lending, management reviews those loans with inherent environmental risk on an individual basis and makes decisions based on the dollar amount of the loan and the materiality of the specific credit.
MVB anticipates no material effect on anticipated capital expenditures, earnings or competitive position as a result of compliance with federal, state or local environmental protection laws or regulations.

ITEM 7. | MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS |
Forward-looking Statements:
The following discussion contains statements that refer to future expectations, contain projections of the results of operations or of financial condition, or state other information that is forward-looking. Forward-looking statements are easily identified by the use of words such as could, anticipate, estimate, believe, and similar words that refer to a future outlook. There is always a degree of uncertainty associated with forward-looking statements. MVBs management believes that the expectations reflected in such statements are based upon reasonable assumptions and on the facts and circumstances existing at the time of these disclosures. Actual results could differ significantly from those anticipated.
Many factors could cause MVBs actual results to differ materially from the results contemplated by the forward-looking statements. Some factors, which could negatively affect the results, include:
| General economic conditions, either nationally or within MVBs market, could be less favorable than expected; |
| Changes in market interest rates could affect interest margins and profitability; |
11
| Competitive pressures could be greater than anticipated; |
| Legal or accounting changes could affect MVBs results; and |
| Adverse changes could occur in the securities and investments markets. |
In Managements Discussion and Analysis we review and explain the general financial condition and the results of operations for MVB Financial Corp. and its subsidiaries. We have designed this discussion to assist you in understanding the significant changes in MVBs financial condition and results of operations. We have used accounting principles generally accepted in the United States to prepare the accompanying consolidated financial statements. We engaged S.R. Snodgrass, A.C. to audit the consolidated financial statements and their independent audit report is included herein.

Introduction
The following discussion and analysis of the Consolidated Financial Statements of MVB is presented to provide insight into managements assessment of the financial results and operations of MVB. MVB Bank, Inc. is the sole operating subsidiary of MVB and all comments, unless otherwise noted, are related to the Bank. You should read this discussion and analysis in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and footnotes and the ratios and statistics contained elsewhere in this Form 10-K.
Application of Critical Accounting Policies
MVBs consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U. S. generally accepted accounting principles and follow general practices within the banking industry. Application of these principles requires management to make estimates, assumptions, and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements; accordingly, as this information changes, the financial statements could reflect different estimates, assumptions, and judgments. Certain policies inherently have a greater reliance on the use of estimates, assumptions and judgments and as such have a greater possibility of producing results that could be materially different than originally reported. Estimates, assumptions, and judgments are necessary when assets and liabilities are required to be recorded at fair value, when a decline in the value of an asset not carried on the financial statements at fair value warrants an impairment write-down or valuation reserve to be established, or when an asset or liability needs to be recorded contingent upon a future event. Carrying assets and liabilities at fair value inherently results in more financial statement volatility. The fair values and the information used to record valuation adjustments for certain assets and liabilities are based either on quoted market prices or are provided by other third-party sources, when available. When third-party information is not available, valuation adjustments are estimated in good faith by management primarily through the use of internal forecasting techniques.
The most significant accounting policies followed by the Bank are presented in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements. These policies, along with the disclosures presented in the other financial statement notes and in managements discussion and analysis of operations, provide information on how significant assets and liabilities are valued in the financial statements and how those values are determined. Based on the valuation techniques used and the sensitivity of financial statement amounts to the methods, assumptions, and estimates underlying those amounts, management has identified the determination of the allowance for loan losses to be the accounting area that requires the most subjective or complex judgments, and as such could be most subject to revision as new information becomes available.
The allowance for loan losses represents managements estimate of probable credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio. Determining the amount of the allowance for loan losses is considered a critical accounting estimate because it requires significant judgment and the use of estimates related to the amount and timing of losses inherent in classifications of homogeneous loans based on historical loss experience of peer banks, and consideration of current economic trends and conditions, all of which may be susceptible to significant change. Non-homogeneous loans are specifically evaluated due to the increased risks inherent in those loans. The loan portfolio also represents the largest asset type in the consolidated balance sheet. Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements describes the methodology used to determine the allowance for loan losses and a discussion of the factors driving changes in the amount of the allowance for loan losses is included in the Allowance for Loan Losses section of this financial review.
See Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements for MVBs policy regarding the other than temporary impairment of investment securities.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements and Developments
In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting
13
Standards Update (ASU) No. 2009-01, Topic 105 - Generally Accepted Accounting Principles - FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. The Codification is the single source of authoritative nongovernmental U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The Codification does not change current GAAP, but is intended to simplify user access to all authoritative GAAP by providing all the authoritative literature related to a particular topic in one place. Rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. The Company adopted this standard for the interim reporting period ending September 30, 2009
In June 2008, the FASB issued accounting guidance related to determining whether instruments granted in share-based payment transactions are participating securities, which is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those years. This guidance clarified that instruments granted in share-based payment transactions can be participating securities prior to the requisite service having been rendered. A basic principle of this guidance is that unvested share-based payment awards that contain no forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) are participating securities and are to be included in the computation of EPS pursuant to the two-class method. All prior-period EPS data presented (including interim financial statements, summaries of earnings, and selected financial data) are required to be adjusted retrospectively to conform to this guidance. This accounting guidance was subsequently codified into ASC Topic 260, Earnings Per Share. The adoption of this new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company.
In April 2009, the FASB issued new guidance impacting ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. This ASC provides additional guidance in determining fair values when there is no active market or where the price inputs being used represent distressed sales. It reaffirms the need to use judgment to ascertain if a formerly active market has become inactive and in determining fair values when markets have become inactive. The adoption of this new guidance did not have a material effect on the Companys results of operations or financial position.
In September 2006, the FASB issued an accounting standard related to fair value measurements, which was effective for the Company on January 1, 2008. This standard defined fair value, established a framework for measuring fair value, and expanded disclosure requirements about fair value measurements. On January 1, 2008, the provisions of this accounting standard became effective for the Companys financial assets and financial liabilities and on January 1, 2009 for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities. This accounting standard was subsequently codified into ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. See Note 18 for the necessary disclosures.
In August 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-05, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820) Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value. This ASU provides amendments for fair value measurements of liabilities. It provides clarification that in circumstances in which a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability is not available, a reporting entity is required to measure fair value using one or more techniques. ASU 2009-05 also clarifies that when estimating a fair value of a liability, a reporting entity is not required to include a separate input or adjustment to other inputs relating to the existence of a restriction that prevents the transfer of the liability. ASU 2009-05 is effective for the first reporting period (including interim periods) beginning after issuance or fourth quarter 2009. The adoption of this new guidance did not have a material impact on the Companys financial position or results of operations.
In April 2009, the FASB issued new guidance impacting ASC 825-10-50, Financial Instruments, which relates to fair value disclosures for any financial instruments that are not currently reflected on the balance sheet of companies at fair value. This guidance amended existing GAAP to require disclosures about fair value of financial instruments for interim reporting periods of publicly traded companies as well as in annual financial statements. This guidance is effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. The adoption of this new guidance did not have a material impact on the Companys financial position or results of operations.
In April 2009, the FASB issued new guidance impacting ASC 320-10, Investments Debt and Equity Securities, which provides additional guidance designed to create greater clarity and consistency in accounting for and presenting impairment losses on securities. This
14
guidance is effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. The adoption of this new guidance did not have a material impact on the Companys financial position or results of operations.
In June 2009, the FASB issued an accounting standard related to the accounting for transfers of financial assets, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009, and interim periods within those fiscal years. This standard enhances reporting about transfers of financial assets, including securitizations, and where companies have continuing exposure to the risks related to transferred financial assets. This standard eliminates the concept of a qualifying special-purpose entity and changes the requirements for derecognizing financial assets. This standard also requires additional disclosures about all continuing involvements with transferred financial assets including information about gains and losses resulting from transfers during the period. This accounting standard was subsequently codified into ASC Topic 860, Transfers and Servicing. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Companys results of operations or financial position
In December 2007, the FASB issued an accounting standard related to noncontrolling interests in consolidated financial statements, which is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008. This standard establishes accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. It clarifies that a noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary, which is sometimes referred to as minority interest, is an ownership interest in the consolidated entity that should be reported as equity in the consolidated financial statements. Among other requirements, this statement requires consolidated net income to be reported at amounts that include the amounts attributable to both the parent and the noncontrolling interest. It also requires disclosure, on the face of the consolidated income statement, of the amounts of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest. This accounting standard was subsequently codified into ASC 810-10, Consolidation. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Companys financial statements.
On April 1, 2009, the FASB issued new authoritative accounting guidance under ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations, which became effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2008. ASC Topic 805 applies to all transactions and other events in which one entity obtains control over one or more other businesses. ASC Topic 805 requires an acquirer, upon initially obtaining control of another entity, to recognize the assets, liabilities and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree at fair value as of the acquisition date. Contingent consideration is required to be recognized and measured at fair value on the date of acquisition rather than at a later date when the amount of that consideration may be determinable beyond a reasonable doubt. This fair value approach replaces the cost-allocation process required under previous accounting guidance whereby the cost of an acquisition was allocated to the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair value. ASC Topic 805 requires acquirers to expense acquisition-related costs as incurred rather than allocating such costs to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, as was previously the case under prior accounting guidance. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination that arise from contingencies are to be recognized at fair value if fair value can be reasonably estimated. If fair value of such an asset or liability cannot be reasonably estimated, the asset or liability would generally be recognized in accordance with ASC Topic 450, Contingencies. Under ASC Topic 805, the requirements of ASC Topic 420, Exit or Disposal Cost Obligations, would have to be met in order to accrue for a restructuring plan in purchase accounting. Pre-acquisition contingencies are to be recognized at fair value, unless it is a non-contractual contingency that is not likely to materialize, in which case, nothing should be recognized in purchase accounting and, instead, that contingency would be subject to the probable and estimable recognition criteria of ASC Topic 450, Contingencies. The adoption of this new guidance did not have a material impact on the Companys financial position or results of operations.
In June 2009, the FASB issued new authoritative accounting guidance under ASC Topic 810, Consolidation, which amends prior guidance to change how a company determines when an entity that is insufficiently capitalized or is not controlled through voting (or similar rights) should be consolidated. The determination of whether a company is required to consolidate an entity is based on, among other things, an entitys purpose and design and a companys ability to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly impact the entitys economic performance. The new authoritative accounting guidance requires additional disclosures about the reporting entitys involvement with variable-interest entities and any significant changes in risk exposure due to that involvement as well as
15
its affect on the entitys financial statements. The new authoritative accounting guidance under ASC Topic 810 will be effective January 1, 2010 and is not expected to have a significant impact on the Companys financial statements.
On December 30, 2008, the FASB issued new authoritative accounting guidance under ASC Topic 715, Compensation Retirement Benefits, which provides guidance related to an employers disclosures about plan assets of defined benefit pension or other post-retirement benefit plans. Under ASC Topic 715, disclosures should provide users of financial statements with an understanding of how investment allocation decisions are made, the factors that are pertinent to an understanding of investment policies and strategies, the major categories of plan assets, the inputs and valuation techniques used to measure the fair value of plan assets, the effect of fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs on changes in plan assets for the period and significant concentrations of risk within plan assets. This guidance is effective fiscal year ending after December 15, 2009. The new authoritative accounting guidance under ASC Topic 715 became effective for the Companys financial statements for the year-ended December 31, 2009 and the required disclosures are reported in Note 10.
The FASB issued new authoritative accounting guidance under ASC Topic 855, Subsequent Events, which establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or available to be issued. ASC Topic 855 defines (i) the period after the balance sheet date during which a reporting entitys management should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements, (ii) the circumstances under which an entity should recognize events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date in its financial statements, and (iii) the disclosures an entity should make about events or transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date. The new authoritative accounting guidance under ASC Topic 855 is effective for periods ending after June 15, 2009. The required disclosures are provided in Note 1.
Several other new accounting standards became effective during the periods presented or will be effective subsequent to December 31, 2009. None of these new standards had or is expected to have a significant impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.
Summary Financial Results
MVB earned $1.4 million in 2009 compared to $828,000 in 2008, an increase of $578,000. The earnings equated to a 2009 return on average assets of .45% and a return on average equity of 5.26%, compared to prior year results of .35% and 3.22%, respectively. Basic earnings per share were $.87 in 2009 compared to $.52 in 2008. Diluted earnings per share were $.85 in 2009 compared to $.51 in 2008. The most significant factor in the increase in 2009 profitability was a 1.1 million increase in net interest income. This increase was largely the result of deploying excess capital by investing in bank certificates of deposit funded by wholesale deposits to earn a spread of around 1%, which resulted in additional income of $699,000. The other driver of the increase in net interest income was the reduction in net interest expense of $416,000, the result of the decrease in interest rates on interest-bearing liabilities. Other income increased $402,000, mostly the result of increased volume of income from loans sold to the secondary market and title and underwriting fee income. The other major increase in net income from 2008 was the reduction in investment impairment losses of $514,000. On the expense side, FDIC insurance expense was the largest increase from 2008, with an increase of $336,000. Other expenses increased $255,000, mostly due to increased collection, dues and training expense. Loan loss provision increased $190,000 and salaries expense increased $219,000.
MVBs yield on earning assets in 2009 was 5.07% in 2009 compared to 6.33% in 2008. This decrease in yield is attributable to the following: an 88 basis point decline in the yield on loans, a 69 basis point decline in the investment portfolio yield and the $32.2 million in other bank certificates of deposit that yielded only 2.13%. Despite extensive competition, total loans increased to $232.8 million at December 31, 2009, from $203.2 million at December 31, 2008. The Banks ability to originate quality loans is supported by a minimal delinquency rate.
16
Deposits increased $91.4 million to $264.5 million at December 31, 2009, from $173.1 million at December 31, 2008, due to the following: 33.9 million in a new product targeting money from brokerage firms, $13.9 million in brokered certificates of deposits used to fund the purchase of certificates of deposits in other banks, $13.1 million in a new checking account called MVChecking, $10.5 million in certificates of deposit and IRAs, $7.5 million in other bank certificates of deposit, $6.9 million in money market deposit accounts, and $6.4 million in CDARSs deposits. MVB offers an uncomplicated product design accompanied by a simple fee structure that is attractive to customers. The overall cost of funds for the bank was 2.14% in 2009 compared to 3.13% in 2008. This cost of funds, combined with the earning asset yield, resulted in a net interest margin of 3.11% in 2009 compared to 3.58% in 2008.
The Bank maintained a high-quality, short-term investment portfolio during 2009 to provide liquidity in the balance sheet, to fund loan growth, for repurchase agreements and to provide security for state and municipal deposits.
Interest Income and Expense
Net interest income is the amount by which interest income on earning assets exceeds interest expense incurred on interest-bearing liabilities. Interest-earning assets
17
include loans, investment securities and certificates of deposit in other banks. Interest-bearing liabilities include interest-bearing deposits and borrowed funds such as sweep accounts and repurchase agreements. Net interest income remains the primary source of revenue for MVB. Net interest income is also impacted by changes in market interest rates, as well as the mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest income is also impacted favorably by increases in non-interest bearing demand deposits and equity.
Net interest margin is calculated by dividing net interest income by average interest-earning assets and serves as a measurement of the net revenue stream generated by MVBs balance sheet. As noted above, the net interest margin was 3.11% in 2009 compared to 3.58% in 2008. The net interest margin continues to face considerable pressure due to competitive pricing of loans and deposits in MVBs markets. During 2009, the Federal Reserve did not change rates. Managements estimate of the impact of future changes in market interest rates is shown in the section captioned Interest Rate Risk.
Management continues to analyze methods to deploy MVBs assets into an earning asset mix which will result in a stronger net interest margin. Loan growth continues to be strong and management anticipates that loan activity will remain strong in the near term future.
During 2009, net interest income increased by $1.1 million or 13.8% to $8.8 million in 2009 from $7.7 million in 2008. This increase is largely due to the growth in average earning assets, primarily $32.0 million in certificates of deposit with other banks and $30.3 million in loans. Average total earning assets were $282.7 million in 2009 compared to $216.3 million in 2008. Average total loans grew to $219.4 million in 2009 from $189.1 million in 2008. Primarily as a result of this growth, total interest income increased by $650,000, or 4.7%, to $14.3 million in 2009 from $13.7 million in 2008. Average interest-bearing liabilities, mainly deposits, likewise increased in 2009 by $68.7 million. Average interest-bearing deposits grew to $209.3 million in 2009 from $148.2 million in 2008. Total interest expense decreased by $416,000 or 7.0%, to $5.5 million in 2009 from $5.9 million in 2008. This decrease in interest expense was the result of a 99 basis point decrease in interest cost from 2008 to 2009.
MVBs yield on earning assets changed during 2009 as follows: The loan portfolio yield decreased by 88 basis points and MVBs investment portfolio yield decreased by 69 basis points while funding yields decreased by 99 basis points.
The cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased to 2.14% in 2009 from 3.13% in 2008. This decrease is primarily the result of reduced cost of funds as follows: Certificates of deposit costs decreased 161 basis points, Repurchase agreement costs decreased 62 basis points, FHLB borrowing costs decreased 67 basis points and MMDA costs decreased 59 basis points.

Provision for Loan Losses
MVBs provision for loan losses for 2009 and 2008 were approximately $785,000 and $595,000, respectively. This increase principally relates to the increase in loans outstanding.
Determining the appropriate level of the Allowance for Loan Losses (ALL) requires considerable management judgment. In exercising this judgment, management considers numerous internal and external factors including, but not limited to, portfolio growth, national and local economic conditions, trends in the markets served and guidance from the Banks primary regulators. Management seeks to maintain an ALL that is appropriate in the circumstances and that complies with applicable accounting and regulatory standards. Further discussion can be found later in this discussion under Allowance for Loan Losses.
Non-Interest Income
Fees related to deposit accounts and cash management accounts and income on loans held for sale represent the significant portion of the Banks primary non-interest income. The total of non-interest income for 2009 was $2.2 million versus $1.8 million in 2008.
The most significant increase in non-interest income from 2009 to 2008 was $205,000 in income on loans held for sale. This increase is primarily the result of the low rate environment. Other areas of significant increase in non-interest income were service charges on deposit accounts which increased by $89,000 to $770,000 and other operating income which increased by $72,000 to $339,000, largely the result of increased title insurance and underwriting income.
The Bank is constantly searching for new non-interest income opportunities that enhance income and provide customer benefits.
Non-Interest Expense
Non-interest Expense was $8.3 million in 2009 versus $7.8 million in 2008. Approximately 51% of non-interest expense for 2009 and 2008, respectively, related to personnel costs. Personnel are the lifeblood of every service organization, which is why personnel cost, is such a significant part of the expenditure mix.
On September 7, 2008 the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) placed Freddie Mac in conservatorship. Dividends to preferred shareholders like MVB were suspended, which necessitated the mark to market of the stock, which in MVBs case resulted in a pretax loss of $700,000. In the second quarter of 2009, Silverton Bank, N.A., a correspondent bank in which MVB held stock failed. This resulted in an $186,000 pretax loss to MVB.
Data processing comprised approximately 6.4% and 7.0% of total non-interest expense during 2009 and 2008, respectively. This decrease in data processing expense is mainly the result of increased efficiencies from the use of branch capture technology.
In 2009 other expense increased by 36.2% to $959,000. This was largely the result of increased collection and repossession expense of $56,000, along with increased loan related expenses of $16,000, travel and entertainment costs of $16,000 and dues, memberships and subscription costs of $61,000.
20
FDIC insurance premiums increased by 311% in 2009, to $444,000. This increase was the result of numerous bank failures during 2009 and the necessity to replenish the deposit insurance fund.
Advertising costs increased by 31.5% to $309,000 in 2009, largely due to the marketing of the new MVChecking product that produced $13.1 million in deposit growth.
21
2008 compared to 2007
Net interest income increased by $841,000 when comparing 2008 with 2007 results. This increase is largely due to growth in average earning assets, primarily loans, of $30.1 million in 2008. Average interest-bearing liabilities, mainly deposits, increased by $28.0 million in 2008. This increase was due to an increase in average interest-bearing deposits of $19.1 million.
Non-interest income is comprised of fees related to deposit accounts and cash management accounts. Non-interest income was $1.8 million in 2008 compared to $1.6 million in 2007. This increase was due primarily to increased focus on secondary market loans, along with continued increases in service charges on deposit accounts, Visa debit card income, title insurance income, investment commissions and Visa credit card income.
Non-interest expense reached $7.8 million in 2008 compared to $6.2 million in 2007. This increase was the result of the following: a $700,000 loss on impairment of FHLMC stock and salaries expense increase of $537,000 mainly relating to the opening of the Berkeley County office for an entire year.
Income Taxes
MVB incurred income tax expense of $454,000 in 2009 and $263,000 in 2008.
The effective tax rate was 24% in 2009 and 24% 2008.
Return on Assets
MVBs return on average assets was .45% in 2009, .35% in 2008 and .62% in 2007. The increased return in 2009 is a direct result of the following: $699,000 in income from certificate of deposit investments funded by brokered deposits, $416,000 decrease in interest expense, $514,000 reduction in investment impairment losses, $320,000 increase in income on loans held for sale. On the expense side, FDIC insurance increased by $336,000, other expense increased $255,000, loan loss provision increased $190,000 and salaries and benefits expense increased $219,000.
Return on Equity
MVBs return on average stockholders equity (ROE) was 5.26% in 2009, compared to 3.22% in 2008 and 5.76% in 2007. The increased return in 2009 is a direct result of the following: $699,000 in income from certificate of deposit investments funded by brokered deposits, $416,000 decrease in interest expense, $514,000 reduction in investment impairment losses, $320,000 increase in income on loans held for sale. On the expense side, FDIC insurance increased by $336,000, other expense increased $255,000, loan loss provision increased $190,000 and salaries and benefits expense increased $219,000.
Overview of the Statement of Condition
The MVB balance sheet changed significantly from 2008 to 2009. Certificates of deposit with banks increased $42.4 million. Loans increased by $29.6 million to $232.8 million at December 31, 2009. Investments increased by 17.3 million, other assets increased by $3.2 million and interest bearing balances with banks increased by $3.9 million. Finally, stockholders equity increased by $1.3 million due to 2009 earnings.
22
Cash and Cash Equivalents
MVBs cash and cash equivalents totaled $2.3 million at December 31, 2009, compared to $4.7 million at December 31, 2008.
Management believes the current balance of cash and cash equivalents adequately serves MVBs liquidity and performance needs. Total cash and cash equivalents fluctuate on a daily basis due to transactions in process and other liquidity demands. Management believes the liquidity needs of MVB are satisfied by the current balance of cash and cash equivalents, readily available access to traditional and non-traditional funding sources, and the portions of the investment and loan portfolios that mature within one year. These sources of funds should enable MVB to meet cash obligations as they come due.
Investment Securities
Investment securities totaled $43.9 million at December 31, 2009, compared to $26.6 million at December 31, 2008.
MVBs investment securities are primarily classified as available-for-sale. Management believes the available-for-sale classification provides flexibility for MVB in terms of managing the portfolio for liquidity, yield enhancement and interest rate risk management opportunities. At December 31, 2009, the amortized cost of MVBs investment securities totaled $43.6 million, resulting in unrealized gain in the investment portfolio of $244,000.
Management monitors the earnings performance and liquidity of the investment portfolio on a regular basis through Investment/Asset and Liability Committee (IALC) meetings. The IALC also monitors net interest income and manages interest rate risk for MVB. Through active balance sheet management and analysis of the investment securities portfolio, MVB maintains sufficient liquidity to satisfy depositor requirements and the various credit needs of its customers. Management believes the risk characteristics inherent in the investment portfolio are acceptable based on these parameters.
The Company evaluated its holding of Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh (FHLB) stock for impairment and deemed the stock to not be impaired due to the expected recoverability of the par value, which equals the value reflected within the Companys financial statements. The decision was based on several items ranging from the estimated true economic losses embedded within the FHLBs mortgage portfolio to the FHLBs liquidity position and credit rating. The Company utilizes the impairment framework outlined in paragraph 8(i) of SOP 01-06 and paragraphs 12.21 12.25 of the AICPA Audit Guide for Depository and Lending Institutions to evaluate FHLB stock for impairment. The following factors were evaluated to determine the ultimate recoverability of the par value of the FHLB stock holding.
a. | The significance of the decline in net assets of the FHLB as compared to the capital stock amount for the FHLB and the length of time this situation has persisted. |
The suspension of stock redemptions and dividend payments will provide the FHLB with the means to build capital. This will reduce the likelihood that any owner of FHLB stock will ultimately incur a loss in the future. In addition, the FHLBs historical ability and commitment to holding investments until maturity is projected to reduce the unrealized loss within the mortgage
23
portfolio from $13.5 billion to an estimated embedded economic loss of less than $1 billion, which will further enhance capital and the ultimate recoverability of the par value of stock.
b. | Commitments by the FHLB to make payments required by law or regulation and the level of such payments in relation to the operating performance of the FHLB. |
The Company is not aware of any significant/unusual commitments made by the FHLB that would impact future financial performance, dividend rates, or the ultimate recoverability of the stock holding at par value.
c. | The impact of legislative and regulatory changes on the institutions and, accordingly, on the customer base of the FHLB. |
The level of government support received by the FHLB ensures its ability to meet its obligations and therefore provide for the ultimate recoverability of the stock at par value. The level of government support includes access to the U.S. Government-Sponsored Enterprise Credit Facility as a liquidity backstop, which will allow the FHLB to continue serving its customer base. The FHLB has elected to early adopt FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2 which will limit possible future impairment losses incurred by the FHLB to the credit portion of the decline in value. The Company believes that the level of government support and changes to accounting guidance provide further evidence as to the recoverability of the stock holding at par value.
d. | The liquidity position of the FHLB. |
The FHLB maintains contingency liquidity in accordance with Finance Agency and Board of Director policy in addition to access to the U.S. Government-Sponsored Enterprise Credit Facility. Contingency liquidity includes: marketable assets with a maturity of one year or less, self-liquidating assets with a maturity of one year or less, collateral generally accepted in the repurchase market, and lines of credit with financial institutions receiving no less than the second highest credit rating from a nationally recognized rating organization. The level of liquidity will ensure the FHLB continues to service its customers and serves as the base for the ultimate recoverability of the stock holding at par value.
e. | Whether a decline is temporary or whether it affects the ultimate recoverability of the FHLB stock based on (a) the materiality of the carrying amount to the member institution and (b) whether an assessment of the institutions operational needs for the foreseeable future allow management to dispose of the stock. |
The Company does not deem the holding of FHLB stock to be material in terms of financial performance or liquidity position. The Company does not rely on the payment of dividends from the FHLB as a source of income, but rather the Company considers the stock
24
part of conducting business. While the FHLB is utilized as a source of funding, the Company has other avenues to obtain funding ranging from customer deposits, other financial institutions, CDARS deposits, brokered money and other wholesale sources. The Companys current liquidity plan does not contemplate any cash generated from the sale of its FHLB capital stock. During second 2009, the Company has been able to reduce its utilization of FHLB funding by $11.8 million. This ability to reduce FHLB funding reliance has highlighted the Companys ability to attract funding, while illustrating that the importance of liquidating FHLB stock is not essential to the overall liquidity position of the Company.
Loans
MVBs lending is primarily focused in Marion, Harrison, Berkeley and Jefferson County, West Virginia with a secondary focus on the adjacent counties in West Virginia. The portfolio consists principally of commercial lending, retail lending, which includes single-family residential mortgages and consumer lending. Loans totaled $232.8 million as of December 31, 2009, compared to $203.2 million at December 31, 2008.
During 2009, MVB experienced loan growth of $29.6 million, $13.5 million in Harrison County, $8.2 million in Jefferson and Berkeley counties combined and $7.9 million in Marion County. The most significant portion of the growth came in the residential real estate and commercial and non-residential real estate area. Residential real estate loans grew $15.2 million and commercial and non-residential real estate loans grew approximately $14.6 million.
At December 31, 2009, commercial loans represented the largest portion of the portfolio approximating 65.5% of the total loan portfolio. Commercial loans totaled $152.4 million at December 31, 2009, compared to $137.9 million at December 31, 2008. Management will continue to focus on the enhancement and growth of the commercial loan portfolio while maintaining appropriate underwriting standards and risk/price balance.
25
Residential real estate loans to MVBs retail customers (including home equity lines of credit) account for the second largest portion of the loan portfolio, comprising 29.0% of MVBs total loan portfolio. Residential real estate loans totaled $67.5 million at December 31, 2009, compared to $52.3 million at December 31, 2008. Included in residential real estate loans are home equity credit lines totaling $14.6 million at December 31, 2009, compared to $13.5 million at December 31, 2008. Management believes the home equity loans are competitive products with an acceptable return on investment after risk considerations. Residential real estate lending continues to represent a primary focus of MVBs lending due to the lower risk factors associated with this type of loan and the opportunity to provide service to those in the Marion, Harrison, Berkeley and Jefferson County markets.
Consumer lending continues to be a part of MVBs core lending. At December 31, 2009, consumer loan balances totaled $12.9 million compared to $13.1 million at December 31, 2008. The majority of MVBs consumer loans are in the direct lending area. Management is pleased with the performance and quality of the consumer loan portfolio, which can be attributed to the many years of experience of its consumer lenders. This is another important product necessary to serve MVBs market areas.

Loan Concentration
At December 31, 2009, commercial loans comprised the largest component of the loan portfolio. There are very few commercial loans that are not secured by real estate. Such non-real estate secured loans generally are lines of credit secured by accounts receivable. While the loan concentration is in commercial loans, the commercial portfolio is comprised of loans to many different borrowers, in numerous different industries but primarily located in our market areas.
Allowance for Loan Losses
The allowance for loan losses is an estimate, determined on a quarterly basis, based on managements evaluation of probable known and inherent losses in the Companys loan portfolio. The allowance for loan losses is based on managements continuing review and evaluation of the loan portfolio through the review of monthly delinquency reports and the Loan Review Committee. The level of the allowance is determined by assigning specific reserves to individually identified problem credits and general reserves to all other loans. The portion of the allowance that is allocated to internally criticized and nonaccrual loans is determined by estimating the inherent loss on each credit after giving consideration to the value of underlying collateral. The general reserves are based on the composition and risk characteristics of the loan portfolio, including the nature of the loan portfolio, credit concentration trends, historic and anticipated delinquency, and loss experience, as well as other qualitative factors such as current economic trends, local market rumors and related deposit account activity if applicable.
27
The result of the evaluation of the adequacy at each period presented herein indicated that the allowance for loan losses was considered adequate to absorb losses inherent in the loan portfolio.
At December 31, 2009 and 2008 MVB had impaired loans totaling $461,000 and $1.3 million respectively. Included in these totals were non-accrual loans totaling $0 and $1.1 million respectively. A portion of the Allowance for Loan Losses was allocated to cover any loss in these loans. Loans past due more than 30 days were $2.2 million and $2.7 million, respectively, at December 31, 2009 and 2008.

Non-performing assets consist of loans that are no longer accruing interest, loans that have been renegotiated to below market rates based upon financial difficulties of the borrower, and real estate acquired through foreclosure. When interest accruals are suspended, accrued interest income is reversed with current year accruals charged to earnings and prior year amounts generally charged off as a credit loss. When, in managements judgment, the borrowers ability to make periodic interest and principal payments resumes and collectability is no longer in doubt, the loan is returned to accrual status.

Funding Sources
MVB considers a number of alternatives, including but not limited to deposits, short-term borrowings, and long-term borrowings when evaluating funding sources. Traditional deposits continue to be the most significant source of funds for MVB, totaling $264.5 million, or 82.8% of MVBs funding sources at December 31, 2009. This same information at December 31, 2008 reflected $173.1 million in deposits representing 76.3% of such funding sources. Cash management accounts, which are available to large corporate customers, represented 11.2% and 9.6% of MVBs funding sources at December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh for specific purposes represented the remainder of such funding sources.
Management continues to emphasize the development of additional non-interest-bearing deposits as a core funding source for MVB. At December 31, 2009, non-interest-bearing balances totaled $23.5 million compared to $22.5 million at December 31, 2008 or 8.9% and 13.0% of total deposits respectively.
Interest-bearing deposits totaled $241.0 million at December 31, 2009, compared to $150.6 million at December 31, 2008. On a percentage basis, Certificates of Deposits compose the largest component of MVBs deposits. Average interest-bearing liabilities totaled $258.6 million during 2009 compared to $189.9 million during 2008. Average non-interest bearing liabilities totaled $24.9 million during 2009 compared to $23.2 million during 2008. Management will continue to emphasize deposit gathering in 2010 by offering outstanding customer service and competitively priced products.

Along with traditional deposits, MVB has access to both overnight repurchase agreements and Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings to fund its operations and investments. MVBs repurchase agreements totaled $35.6 million at December 31, 2009, compared to $21.9 million in 2008. Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings totaled $19.2 million at December 31, 2009, compared to $31.9 million at year-end 2008.
Capital/Stockholders Equity
During the year ended December 31, 2009, stockholders equity increased approximately $1.3 million to $27.1 million. This increase consists of MVBs net income for the year of $1.4 million. MVB paid dividends of $160,000 in 2009 and $159,000 in 2008.
At December 31, 2009, accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) totaled ($343,000), an increase in the loss of $28,000 from December 31, 2008. This principally represents net unrealized loss on available-for-sale securities, net of income taxes, and the adjustment to pension liability, net of income taxes, at December 31, 2009. Because the vast majority of all the investment securities in MVBs portfolio are classified as available-for-sale, both the investment and equity sections of MVBs balance sheet are more sensitive to the changing market values of investments than those institutions that classify more of their investment portfolio as held to maturity. Interest rate fluctuations between year-end 2009 and 2008 resulted in the change in market value of the portfolio.
MVB has also complied with the standards of capital adequacy mandated by the banking industry. Bank regulators have established risk-based capital requirements designed to measure capital adequacy. Risk-based capital ratios reflect the relative risks of various assets banks hold in their portfolios. A weight category of either 0% (lowest risk assets), 20%, 50%, or 100% (highest risk assets) is assigned to each asset on the balance sheet. Detailed information concerning MVBs risk-based capital ratios can be found in Note 14 of the Notes to the Audited Financial Statements. At December 31, 2009, MVBs risk-based capital ratios were above the minimum standards for a well-capitalized institution. MVBs risk-based capital ratio of 13.2% at December 31, 2009, is above the well-capitalized standard of 10%. MVBs Tier 1 capital ratio of 12.3% also exceeded the
30
well-capitalized minimum of 6%. The leverage ratio at December 31, 2009, was 8.6% and was also above the well-capitalized standard of 5%. Management believes MVBs capital continues to provide a strong base for profitable growth.
Liquidity and Interest Rate Sensitivity
The objective of MVBs asset/liability management function is to maintain consistent growth in net interest income within its policy guidelines. This objective is accomplished through management of MVBs balance sheet liquidity and interest rate risk exposure based on changes in economic conditions, interest rate levels, and customer preferences.
Interest Rate Risk
The most significant market risk resulting from MVBs normal course of business, extending loans and accepting deposits, is interest rate risk. Interest rate risk is the potential for economic loss due to future interest rate changes which can impact both the earnings stream as well as market values of financial assets and liabilities. MVBs Investment/ Asset/ Liability Committee (IALC) is responsible for the overall review and management of the Banks balance sheets related to the management of interest rate risk. The IALC strives to keep MVB focused on the future, anticipating and exploring alternatives, rather than simply reacting to change after the fact.
To this end, the IALC has established an interest risk management policy that sets the minimum requirements and guidelines for monitoring and controlling the level and amount of interest rate risk. The objective of the interest rate risk policy is to encourage management to adhere to sound fundamentals of banking while allowing sufficient flexibility to exercise the creativity and innovations necessary to meet the challenges of changing markets. The ultimate goal of these policies is to optimize net interest income within the constraints of prudent capital adequacy, liquidity, and safety.
The IALC relies on different methods of assessing interest rate risk including simulating net interest income, monitoring the sensitivity of the net present market value of equity or economic value of equity, and monitoring the difference or gap between maturing or rate-sensitive assets and liabilities over various time periods. The IALC places emphasis on simulation modeling as the most beneficial measurement of interest rate risk due to its dynamic measure. By employing a simulation process that measures the impact of potential changes in interest rates and balance sheet structures, and by establishing limits on changes in net income and net market value, the IALC is better able to evaluate the possible risks associated with alternative strategies.
The simulation process starts with a base case simulation which represents projections of current balance sheet growth trends. Base case simulation results are prepared under a flat interest rate forecast and what is perceived to be the most likely alternative interest rate forecast. Comparisons showing the earnings variance from the flat rate forecast illustrate the risks associated with the current balance sheet strategy. If necessary, additional balance sheet strategies are developed and simulations prepared. The results from model simulations are reviewed for indications of whether current interest rate risk strategies are accomplishing their goal and, if not, what alternative strategies should be considered. The policy calls for periodic review by the IALC of assumptions used in the modeling.
The IALC believes that it is beneficial to monitor interest rate risk for both the short-and long-term. Therefore, to effectively evaluate results from model simulations, limits on changes in net interest income and the value of the balance sheet have been established. The IALC has determined that the earnings at risk of the Bank shall not change more than 10 % from the base case for a 1% shift in interest rates, nor more than 15 % from the base case for a 2% shift in interest rates. MVB is in compliance with this policy as of December 31, 2009.

Liquidity
Maintenance of a sufficient level of liquidity is a primary objective of the IALC. Liquidity, as defined by the IALC, is the ability to meet anticipated operating cash needs, loan demand, and deposit withdrawals, without incurring a sustained negative impact on net interest income. It is MVBs policy to manage liquidity so that there is no need to make unplanned sales of assets or to borrow funds under emergency conditions.
The main source of liquidity for MVB comes through deposit growth. Liquidity is also provided from cash generated from investment maturities, principal payments from loans, and income from loans and investment securities. During the year ended December 31, 2009, cash provided by financing activities totaled $92.4 million, while outflows from investing activity totaled $94.6 million. When appropriate, MVB has the ability to take advantage of external sources of funds such as advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB), national market certificate of deposit issuance programs, the Federal Reserve discount window, brokered deposits and CDARS. These external sources often provide attractive interest rates and flexible maturity dates that enable MVB to match funding with contractual maturity dates of assets. Securities in the investment portfolio are primarily classified as available-for-sale and can be utilized as an additional source of liquidity.
Off-Balance Sheet Commitments
MVB has entered into certain agreements that represent off-balance sheet arrangements that could have a significant impact on MVBs financial statements and could have a significant impact in future periods. Specifically, MVB has entered into agreements to extend credit or provide conditional payments pursuant to standby and commercial letters of credit. Further discussion of these agreements, including the amounts outstanding at December 31, 2009, is included in Note 7 to the financial statements.
Commitments to extend credit, including loan commitments, standby letters of credit, and commercial letters of credit do not necessarily represent future cash requirements, in that these commitments often expire without being drawn upon.
32
Fourth Quarter
MVBs fourth quarter net income was $256,000 in 2009 compared to $557,000 in the fourth quarter of 2008. Fourth quarter 2008 income included a $210,000 tax benefit on the FHLMC preferred stock that became impaired during the third quarter of 2008. This equated to basic earnings per share, on a quarterly basis, of $.16 in 2009 and $.22 in 2008, adjusted for the tax benefit. Diluted earnings per share for the fourth quarter of 2009 and 2008 were $.15 and $.22, adjusted for the tax benefit, respectively. Net interest income increased during the fourth quarter and was $2.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2009 compared to $2.1 million in 2008. Non-interest income was $546,000 in the fourth quarter of 2009 compared to $417,000 in 2008. Non-interest expense increased to $2.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2009 from $1.8 million in 2008. Loan loss provision was $311,000 for the fourth quarter of 2009, an increase of $164,000 over the fourth quarter of 2008.
Future Outlook
The Banks net income in 2009 was better than in any prior year, despite the challenges of a poor economic climate which included large increases in FDIC insurance premiums, the failure of a correspondent bank which MVB held stock in and increased loan loss provisions and collection expense. MVB believes it is well positioned in some of the finest markets in the state of West Virginia. We believe with continued customer acceptance in our markets and our commitment to customer service, we will continue to capture market share with our emphasis on the highest quality products and technology.
Future plans for the Bank involve the Bank taking advantage of both technology and personal customer contact. The Bank continues to expand delivery channels to better serve both retail and business banking customers. In addition to top of the line technology, the Bank is committed to providing individual and personal banking services. MVB will continue to search for quality banking locations as well as exploring alternative delivery systems.

Note 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Operations
MVB Financial Corp., the Company, provides banking services to the domestic market with the primary market areas being the Marion, Harrison, Jefferson and Berkeley counties of West Virginia. To a large extent, the operations of the Company, such as loan portfolio management and deposit growth, are directly affected by the market area economies.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash and due from banks.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of MVB Financial Corp. Inc., and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Management Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates, such as the allowance for loan losses, are based upon known facts and circumstances. Estimates are revised by management in the period such facts and circumstances change. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Investment Securities
Debt securities that management has the ability and intent to hold to maturity are classified as held-to-maturity and carried at cost, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discounts computed by the interest method from purchase date to maturity. Other marketable securities are classified as available-for-sale and are carried at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on securities available-for-sale, net of the deferred income tax effect, are recognized as direct increases or decreases in stockholders equity. Cost of securities sold is recognized using the specific identification method.
Loans Held for Sale
Through Crescent Mortgage Company, Franklin American Mortgage and Freddie MAC, MVB Bank, Inc. has the ability to offer customers long-term fixed rate mortgage products without holding these instruments in the banks loan portfolio. After thorough review of the process the Company has concluded that no material derivative instruments exist.
Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses
Loans are stated at the amount of unpaid principal reduced by an allowance for loan losses. Loans are considered delinquent when scheduled principal or interest payments are 31 days past due. Interest income on loans is recognized on an accrual basis. The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level deemed adequate to absorb probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio. The Company consistently applies a quarterly loan review process to continually evaluate loans for changes in credit risk. This process serves as the primary means by which the Company evaluates the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, and is based upon periodic review of the collectibility of loans in light of historical experience, the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrowers ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying collateral and prevailing economic conditions. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available.
The allowance consists of specific and general components. The specific component relates to loans that are impaired. The general component covers non-classified loans and is based upon historical loss experience adjusted for qualitative factors.
A loan is considered impaired when, based upon current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and shortages generally are not classified as impaired. Generally the Company considers impaired loans to include loans classified as non-accrual loans and loans past due for longer than 90 days.
Loan Origination Fees and Costs
Accounting standards require that loan origination and commitment fees and direct loan origination costs be deferred and the net amount amortized as an adjustment of the related loans yield.
Bank Premises, Furniture and Equipment
Bank premises, furniture and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. The provision for depreciation is computed for financial reporting by the straight-line-method based on the estimated useful lives of assets, which range from 7 to 40 years on buildings and leasehold improvements and 3 to 10 years on furniture, fixtures and equipment.
38
Intangible Assets
The excess of the cost of an acquired company over the fair value of the net assets and identified intangibles acquired is recorded as goodwill. The net carrying amount of intangible assets was $941 and $956 at December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.
Other Investments
Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) stock is recorded at cost and considered to be restricted as the Company is required by the FHLB to hold this investment, and the only market for this stock is the issuing agency. FHLB stock totaled $1,911 and $1,479 at December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, and is included in other assets in the accompanying balance sheet. The Company also held $187 in Silverton Bank, N.A. stock at December 31, 2008, which during 2009 was written down to $0 due to the failure of Silveton Bank, N.A.
Income Taxes
Deferred income taxes are reported for timing differences between items of income or expense reported in the financial statements and those reported for income tax purposes. The differences relate principally to accretion of discounts on investment securities, provision for loan losses, minimum pension liability, and differences between book and tax methods of depreciation.
Stock Based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with generally accepted accounting standards. Under these standards the Company is required to record compensation expense for all awards granted after the date of adoption and for any unvested options previously granted.
Foreclosed Assets Held for Resale
Foreclosed assets held for resale acquired in satisfaction of mortgage obligations and in foreclosure proceedings are recorded at the lower of cost or fair value less estimated selling costs at the time of foreclosure, with any valuation adjustments charged to the allowance for loan losses. Any unrealized gains or losses on sale are then recorded in other non-interest expense. At December 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company held other real estate of $1,171 and $818.
Net Income Per Common Share
Diluted net income per common share includes any dilutive effects of stock options, and is computed by dividing net income by the average number of common shares outstanding during the period, adjusted for the dilutive effect of options under The Companys 2003 Stock Incentive Plan.
Comprehensive Income
Accounting principles generally require that recognized revenue, expenses, gains and losses be included in net income. Although certain changes in assets and liabilities, such as unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities and minimum pension liability, are reported as a separate component of the equity section of the balance sheet, such items, along with net income, are components of comprehensive income.
Endorsement Split-Dollar Life Insurance Arrangements
Accounting standards required that on January 1, 2008, the Company change its accounting policy and recognize a cumualtive-effect adjustment to retained earnings totaling $138 related to accounting for certain endorsement split-dollar life insurance arrangements.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts in the 2008 financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the 2009 financial statement presentation.
Subsequent Events
Management has reviewed events occurring through February 26, 2010, the date the financial statements were issued and no subsequent events transpired requiring accrual or disclosure.

The Companys investment portfolio includes securities that are in an unrealized loss position as of December 31, 2009, the details of which are included in the following table. Although these securities, if sold at December 31, 2009 would result in a pretax loss of $122, the Company has no intent to sell the applicable securities at such market values, and maintains the Company has the ability to hold these securities until all principal has been recovered. Declines in the market values of these securities can be traced to general market conditions which reflect the prospect for the economy as a whole. When determining other-than-temporary impairment on securities, the Company considers such factors as adverse conditions specifically related to a certain security or to specific conditions in an industry or geographic area, the time frame securities have been in an unrealized loss position, the Companys ability to hold the security for a period of time sufficient to allow for anticipated recovery in value, whether or not the security has been downgraded by a rating agency, and whether or not the financial condition of the security issuer has severely deteriorated. As of December 31, 2009, the Company considers all securities with unrealized loss positions to be temporarily impaired, and consequently, does not believe the Company will sustain any material realized losses as a result of the current temporary decline in market value.
The following table discloses investments in an unrealized loss position:
At December 31, 2009, total temporary impairment totaled $122.

In March 2007 the Company completed the private placement of $4 million Floating Rate, Trust Preferred Securities through its MVB Financial Statutory Trust I subsidiary (the Trust). The Company established the Trust for the sole purpose of issuing the Trust Preferred Securities pursuant to an Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust. The proceeds from the sale of the Trust Preferred Securities will be loaned to the Company under subordinated Debentures (the Debentures) issued to the Trust pursuant to an Indenture. The Debentures are the only asset of the Trust. The Trust Preferred Securities have been issued to a pooling vehicle that will use the distributions on the Trust Preferred Securities to securitize note obligations. The securities issued by the Trust are includable for regulatory purposes as a component of the Companys Tier I capital.
43
The Trust Preferred Securities and the Debentures mature in 30 years and are redeemable by the Company after five years. Interest payments are due in March, June, September and December and are adjusted at the interest due dates at a rate of 1.62% over the three month LIBOR Rate. The Company reflects borrowed funds in the amount of $4.1 million as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 and interest expense of $109 and $203 for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008.
Borrowings from the FHLB are secured by stock in the FHLB of Pittsburgh, qualifying first mortgage loans, mortgage-backed securities and certain investment securities.
The bank had borrowed $1,000 at the Federal Reserve discount window for 90 days beginning December 2008, maturing March 2009 at a rate of 1.25%
A summary of maturities of these borrowings over the next five years is as follows:

NOTE 7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
Financial Instruments with Off-Balance-Sheet Risk
The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the statements of financial condition.
The Companys exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instruments for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments.
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customers credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount and type of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit, varies and is based on managements credit evaluation of the customer.
Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Standby letters of credit generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers. The Companys policy for obtaining collateral, and the nature of such collateral, is essentially the same as that involved in making commitments to extend credit.
Total contractual amounts of the commitments as of December 31 were as follows:

2009 | 2008 | ||||
Available on lines of credit |
$ | 30,814 | $ | 44,165 | ||

$ | 32,985 | $ | 46,542 | |||
Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company grants a majority of its commercial, financial, agricultural, real estate and installment loans to customers throughout the Marion, Harrison, Jefferson and Berkeley County areas of West Virginia and adjacent counties. Collateral for loans is primarily residential and commercial real estate, personal property, and business equipment. The Company evaluates the credit worthiness of each of its customers on a case-by-case basis, and the amount of collateral it obtains is based upon managements credit evaluation.
44
Litigation
The subsidiary bank is involved in various legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management and counsel, the outcome of these matters will not have a significant adverse effect on the consolidated financial statements.
NOTE 8. INCOME TAXES
Accounting standards require that the Company use an asset and liability approach that requires the recognition of deferred income tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax basis of other assets and liabilities.
The amount reflected as income taxes represents federal and state income taxes on financial statement income. Certain items of income and expense, primarily the provision for possible loan losses, allowance for losses on foreclosed assets held for resale, depreciation, and accretion of discounts on investment securities are reported in different accounting periods for income tax purposes.
The provisions for income taxes for the years ended December 31, were as follows:

NOTE 10. PENSION PLAN
The Company participates in a trusteed pension plan known as the Allegheny Group Retirement Plan covering virtually all full-time employees. Benefits are based on years of service and the employees compensation. The Companys funding policy is to fund normal costs of the plan as accrued. Contributions are intended to provide not only for benefits attributed to service to date, but also for those benefits expected to be earned in the future. The Company participated in the pension plan beginning January 1, 1999. The Company has recognized estimated pension expense of $291 and $301 for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008.
Information pertaining to the activity in the Companys defined benefit plan, using the latest available actuarial valuations with a measurement date of December 31, 2009 and 2008 is as follows:

Plan Assets
The pension plans overall investment strategy is to achieve a mix of approximately 75 percent of investments for long-term growth and 25 percent for near-term benefit payments with a wide diversification of asset types, fund strategies, and fund managers. The target allocations for plan assets are 75 percent equity securities, 20 percent corporate bonds and US Treasury securities, and 5 percent to all other types of investments. Equity securities primarily include investments in large-cap and mid-cap companies primarily located in the United States. Fixed income securities include corporate bonds of companies from diversified industries, mortgage-backed securities, and U.S. Treasuries. Other types of investments include investments in hedge funds and private equity funds that follow several different strategies.

The methods described above may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, while the Plan believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date.

NOTE 14. REGULATORY CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS
The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary, actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Companys financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Banks assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Banks capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.
49
Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of Total and Tier I capital to risk-weighted assets, and of Tier I capital to average assets, as defined. As of December 31, 2009 and 2008, the Bank meets all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject.
The most recent notification from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized, the Bank must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier I risk-based, and Tier I leverage ratios as set forth in the table below. Both the Companys and the Banks actual capital amounts and ratios are presented in the table below.

NOTE 17. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The following summarizes the methods and significant assumptions used by the Company in estimating its fair value disclosures for financial instruments.
Securities: Estimated fair values of securities are based on quoted market prices, where available. If quoted market prices are not available, estimated fair values are based on quoted market prices of comparable securities.
Loans: The estimated fair values for loans are computed based on scheduled future cash flows of principal and interest, discounted at interest rates currently offered for loans with similar terms of borrowers of similar credit quality. No prepayments of principal are assumed.
Accrued interest receivable and payable: The carrying values of accrued interest receivable and payable approximate their estimated fair values.
Repurchase agreements: The fair values of repurchase agreements approximate their estimated fair values.
Deposits: The estimated fair values of demand deposits (i.e., non interest bearing checking, NOW and money market), savings accounts and other variable rate deposits approximate their carrying values. Fair values of fixed maturity deposits are estimated using a discounted cash flow methodology at rates currently offered for deposits with similar remaining maturities. Any intangible value of long-term relationships with depositors is not considered in estimating the fair values disclosed.
Off-balance sheet instruments: The fair values of commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit are estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of agreements and the present credit standing of the counterparties. The amounts of fees currently charged on commitments and standby letters of credit are deemed insignificant, and therefore, the estimated fair values and carrying values are not shown.
The carrying values and estimated fair values of the Companys financial instruments are summarized as follows:

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information about the financial instrument. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the Companys entire holdings of a particular financial instrument. Because no market exists for a significant portion of the Companys financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments and other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates. Fair value estimates are based on existing on-and-off balance sheet financial instruments without attempting to estimate the value of anticipated future business and the value of assets and liabilities that are not considered financial instruments.
NOTE 18. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Effective January 1, 2008 accounting standards required that the Company adopt fair value measurement for financial assets and financial liabilities. This enhanced guidance for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities applies whenever other standards require or permit assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value. This guidance does not expand the use of fair value in any new circumstances.
Accounting standards establish a hierarchal disclosure framework associated with the level of pricing observability utilized in measuring assets and liabilities at fair value. The three broad levels defined by these standards are as follows:
Level I: Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reported date.
Level II: Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date. The nature of these assets and liabilities include items for which quoted prices are available but traded less frequently, and items that are fair valued using other financial instruments, the parameters of which can be directly observed.
Level III: Assets and liabilities that have little to no pricing observability as of the reported date. These items do not have two-way markets and are measured using managements best estimate of fair value, where the inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation.
52
The following table presents the assets and liabilities reported on the consolidated statements of financial condition at their fair value as of December 31, 2009 by level within the fair value hierarchy. As required by accounting standards, financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
MVB Financial Corp.
Fairmont, West Virginia
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of MVB Financial Corp. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in stockholders equity, and cash flows for the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of MVB Financial Corp. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the consolidated results of its operations and cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted new authoritative accounting guidance related to endorsement split-dollar life insurance arrangements.
We were not engaged to examine managements assertion about the effectiveness of MVB Financial Corp.s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009, which is included in Form 10-K and, accordingly, we do not express an opinion thereon.

ITEM 9. | CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE |
No response required
ITEM 9A. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES |
The Company, under the supervision and with the participation of the Companys management, including the Companys President and Chief Executive Officer, along with the Companys Chief Financial Officer (the Principal Financial Officer), has evaluated the effectiveness as of December 31, 2009, of the design and operation of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act). Based upon that evaluation, the Companys President and Chief Executive Officer, along with the Companys Principal Accounting Officer concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2009.
There have been no material changes in the Companys internal control over financial reporting during the fourth quarter of 2009 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control over financial reporting.
56
ITEM 9A(T). | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES |
Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. The Companys internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
A material weakness is a significant deficiency (as defined in Public Company Accounting Oversight Board Auditing Standard No. 2), or a combination of significant deficiencies, that results in there being more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by management or employees in the normal course of performing their assigned functions.
Management assessed the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009. Managements assessment did not identify any material weaknesses in the Companys internal control over financial reporting.
In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Because there were no material weaknesses discovered, management believes that, as of December 31, 2009, the Companys internal control over financial reporting was effective.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Companys registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Managements report was not subjected to attestation by the Companys registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only managements report in this annual report.

See Principal Holders of Voting Securities on page 11 of MVBs definitive Proxy Statement relating to MVBs Annual Meeting of Shareholders for 2010 which section is expressly incorporated by reference.
ITEM 13. | CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE |
MVB and the Bank have, and expect to continue to have, banking and other transactions in the ordinary course of business with its directors and officers and their affiliates, including members of their families or corporations, partnerships or other organizations in which officers or directors have a controlling interest, on substantially the same terms (including documentation, price, interest rates and collateral, repayment and amortization schedules and default provisions) as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with unrelated parties. All of these transactions were made on substantially the same terms (including interest rates, collateral and repayment terms on loans) as comparable transactions with non-affiliated persons. MVBs management believes that these transactions did not involve more than the normal business risk of collection or include any unfavorable features.
Total loans outstanding from the Bank at December 31, 2009 to MVB and Bank officers and directors as a group and members of their immediate families and companies in which they had an ownership interest of 10% or more was $15.0 million or 55.4% of total equity capital and 6.5% of total loans. These loans do not involve more than the normal risk of collectibility or present other unfavorable features.
