BUSINESS

 

General

 

Citizens Bancorp of Virginia, Inc. (Company) is a one-bank holding company formed on December 18, 2003 headquartered in Blackstone, Virginia. The Company is the sole shareholder of its only subsidiary, Citizens Bank and Trust Company (Bank). The Bank conducts and transacts the general business of a commercial bank as authorized by the banking laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia and the rules and regulations of the Federal Reserve System. The Bank was incorporated in 1873 under the laws of Virginia. Deposits are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. In September 1995, the Bank became a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta.

 

The Company’s primary activity is retail and commercial banking through its sole subsidiary - the Bank. Financial services include commercial and consumer demand and time deposit accounts, real estate, commercial and consumer loans, online internet banking, 24-hour ATM network, brokerage services, safe deposit boxes, wire transfer services and other miscellaneous services incidental to the operation of a commercial bank. The Bank also acts as agent for Visa. The Bank is authorized to have a trust department, but does not offer trust services. The Bank’s primary trade areas are served by its 11 banking offices located in the counties of Nottoway, Amelia, Prince Edward, Chesterfield, the City of Colonial Heights, and the Town of South Hill, Virginia and a loan production office in Midlothian, Virginia.

 

The Company’s primary revenue comes from retail banking in the form of interest income received on loans and investments. This income is partially offset by the Company’s interest expense on deposits and borrowed funds, resulting in net interest income. The Company’s earnings also come from noninterest income in the form of deposit fees, gains on the sale of loans and investments, ATM fees, Bank-owned Life Insurance, and other financial services. The Company’s combined noninterest income and net interest income are offset by the Company’s noninterest expense which includes employee compensation and benefits, occupancy, equipment and other operating expenses.

 

The Bank holds a 1.08% ownership in Bankers Investment Group, LLC, which delivers investment services to customers through the use of a dual-employee broker. The Bank also holds an 8.14% ownership interest in Bankers Title, LLC, which is a provider of title insurance. The Company has an ownership interest of 1.39% in the Community Bankers’ Bank Community Development Fund II, LLC, which is a provider of correspondent banking services exclusively to financial institutions and operates under the name of Community Bankers’ Bank. The financial position and operating results of these investments are not significant to the Company as a whole and are not considered principal activities of the Company.

 

The Company maintains an internet website at www.cbtva.com which contains information relating to the business. The Company makes available free of charge through its website its Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K as soon as possible after such forms have been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Copies of the Company’s Audit Committee Charter, Nominating Committee Charter and Code of Conduct are available upon written request to: Corporate Secretary, Citizens Bancorp of Virginia, Inc., 126 South Main Street, Blackstone, Virginia, 23824.

 

Employees

 

As of December 31, 2007, the Company employed 113 full-time equivalent employees. The Company’s success is highly dependent on its ability to attract and retain qualified employees. Competition in the industry is intense for employees; however, the Company believes it has been successful in recruiting qualified employees and believes relations with its employees are excellent.

Competition

 

The Bank competes for business with numerous other financial institutions in its various trade areas which include the counties of Nottoway, Amelia, Prince Edward, Chesterfield, the City of Colonial Heights, and the Town of South Hill, Virginia. The Bank also serves a significant number of residents in the counties of Cumberland, Lunenburg, and Mecklenburg, Virginia as well as the western part of Dinwiddie County, Virginia. The following data reflects the Bank’s market share in its primary market places at June 30, 2007, according to information obtained from the FDIC website. In Amelia County, the Bank held 23.09% of the market share, in Nottoway County, 60.80%, in Prince Edward County, 13.82%, in Chesterfield County, 0.09%, in Mecklenburg County, 0.19% and in the City of Colonial Heights, 1.08%.

 

Credit Policies/Loan Activities

 

The Bank offers a full range of short to medium term commercial and consumer loans. Commercial loans include both secured and unsecured loans for working capital (including inventory and receivables), business expansion (including acquisition of real estate and improvements) and purchase of equipment and machinery. Consumer loans may include secured and unsecured loans for financing automobiles, home improvements, education and personal investments.

 

Lending activities are subject to a variety of lending limits imposed by state law. While differing limits apply in certain circumstances based on the type of loan or the nature of the borrower (including the borrower’s relationship to the Bank), in general the Bank is subject to a loan-to-one borrower limit of an amount equal to 15% of its capital and surplus. The Bank voluntarily may choose to impose a policy limit on loans to a single borrower that is less than the legal lending limit.

 

The Bank obtains commercial and personal loans through direct solicitation of business owners and customers. Completed commercial loan applications are reviewed by loan officers. As part of the application process, information is obtained concerning the income, financial condition, employment and credit history of the applicant. If commercial real estate is involved, information is also obtained concerning cash flow after debt service. Loan quality is analyzed based on the Bank’s experience and its credit underwriting guidelines which considers appraised value, market conditions, borrower strength, collateral value, and borrower’s ability to service the debt.

 

Commercial Loans. The Bank makes commercial loans to qualified businesses in its market area. Commercial lending consists primarily of commercial and industrial loans to finance accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment. Commercial business loans generally have a higher degree of risk than residential mortgage loans, but have commensurately higher yields. Residential mortgage loans generally are made on the basis of the borrower’s ability to make repayment from his employment and other income and are secured by real estate whose value tends to be easily ascertainable. In contrast, commercial business loans typically are made on the basis of the borrower’s ability to make repayment from cash flow from its business and are secured by business assets, such as commercial real estate, accounts receivable, equipment and inventory. As a result, the availability of funds for the repayment of commercial business loans may be substantially dependent on the success of the business itself.

 

Further, the collateral for commercial business loans may depreciate over time and cannot be appraised with as much precision as residential real estate. To manage these risks, underwriting guidelines are required to secure commercial loans with both the assets of the borrowing business and other additional collateral and guarantees that may be available. In addition, certain measures of the borrower are actively monitored, including advance rate, cash flow, collateral value and other appropriate credit factors.

 

Residential Mortgage Loans. The Bank’s residential mortgage loan portfolio consists of residential first and second mortgage loans, residential construction loans and home equity lines of credit and term loans secured by first and second mortgages on the residences of borrowers for home improvements, education and other personal expenditures. Loans are made with a variety of terms, including fixed and floating or variable rates and a variety of maturities.

              Under current underwriting guidelines, residential mortgage loans generally are made on the basis of the borrower’s ability to make repayment from his/her employment and other income and are secured by real estate whose value tends to be readily ascertainable. These loans are made consistent with the Bank’s appraisal policies and real estate lending policies, which detail maximum loan-to-value ratios and maturities. Loans for owner-occupied property are generally made with a loan-to-value ratio of up to 85% for first liens. Higher loan-to-value ratios are allowed based on the borrower’s unusually strong general liquidity, net worth and cash flow. Loan-to-value ratios for home equity lines of credit generally do not exceed 90%. The Bank will originate and sell most fixed-rate, first mortgage loans to secondary market correspondent lenders. First mortgage loans are also originated for borrowers who meet the qualifications of the Virginia Housing and Development Authority programs.

 

Construction Loans. Construction lending entails significant additional risks, compared to residential mortgage lending. Construction loans often involve larger loan balances concentrated with single borrowers or groups of related borrowers. Construction loans also involve additional risks attributable to the fact that loan funds are advanced upon the security of property under construction, which is of uncertain value prior to the completion of construction. Maturities for construction loans generally range from 4 to 12 months for residential property and from 6 to 18 months for non-residential and multi-family properties. Thus, it is more difficult to evaluate accurately the total loan funds required to complete a project and related loan-to-value ratios. To minimize the risks associated with construction lending, underwriting guidelines limit loan-to-value ratios for residential property to 85% and for non-residential property and multi-family properties to 80%, in addition to its usual credit analysis of its borrowers. Loan-to-value ratios described above are sufficient to compensate for fluctuations in the real estate market in order to minimize the risk of loss.

 

Consumer Loans. The Bank’s consumer loans consist primarily of installment loans to individuals for personal, family and household purposes. The specific types of consumer loans that the Bank makes include home improvement loans, debt consolidation loans and general consumer lending. Consumer loans entail greater risk than residential mortgage loans do, particularly in the case of consumer loans that are unsecured, such as lines of credit, or secured by rapidly depreciable assets such as automobiles. In such cases, any repossessed collateral for a defaulted consumer loan may not provide an adequate source of repayment of the outstanding loan balance as a result of the greater likelihood of damage, loss or depreciation. The remaining deficiency often does not warrant further substantial collection efforts against the borrower. In addition, consumer loan collections are dependent on the borrower’s continuing financial stability, and thus are more likely to be adversely affected by job loss, divorce, illness or personal bankruptcy. Furthermore, the application of various federal and state laws, including federal and state bankruptcy and insolvency laws, may limit the amount which can be recovered on such loans. Such loans may also give rise to claims and defenses by a consumer loan borrower against an assignee of such loan such as the bank, and a borrower may be able to assert against such assignee claims and defenses that it has against the seller of the underlying collateral.

 

The Bank’s underwriting policy for consumer loans is to accept moderate risk while minimizing losses, primarily through a careful analysis of the borrower. In evaluating consumer loans, lending officers are required to review the borrower’s level and stability of income, past credit history and the impact of these factors on the ability of the borrower to repay the loan in a timely manner. In addition, an appropriate margin between the loan amount and collateral value is maintained.

 

Supervision and Regulation

 

General

 

As a bank holding company, the Company is subject to regulation under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended, and the examination and reporting requirements of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. As a state-chartered commercial bank, the Bank is subject to regulation, supervision and examination by the Virginia State Corporation Commission’s Bureau of Financial Institutions. It is also subject to regulation, supervision and examination by the Federal

Reserve Board. Other federal and state laws, including various consumer and compliance laws, govern the activities of the Bank, the investments that it makes and the aggregate amount of loans that it may grant to one borrower.

 

The following description summarizes the significant federal and state laws applicable to the Company and the Bank. To the extent that statutory or regulatory provisions are described, the description is qualified in its entirety by reference to that particular statutory or regulatory provision.

 

The Bank Holding Company Act

 

Under the Bank Holding Company Act, the Company is subject to periodic examination by the Federal Reserve and required to file periodic reports regarding its operations and any additional information that the Federal Reserve may require. Activities at the bank holding company level are limited to:

 

 

banking, managing or controlling banks;

 

furnishing services to or performing services for its subsidiaries; and

 

engaging in other activities that the Federal Reserve has determined by regulation or order to be so closely related to banking as to be a proper incident to these activities.

 

Some of the activities that the Federal Reserve Board has determined by regulation to be closely related to the business of a bank holding company include making or servicing loans and specific types of leases, performing specific data processing services and acting in some circumstances as a fiduciary or investment or financial adviser.

 

With some limited exceptions, the Bank Holding Company Act requires every bank holding company to obtain the prior approval of the Federal Reserve before:

 

 

acquiring substantially all the assets of any bank;

 

acquiring direct or indirect ownership or control of any voting shares of any bank if after such acquisition it would own or control more than 5% of the voting shares of such bank (unless it already owns or controls the majority of such shares); or

 

merging or consolidating with another bank holding company.

 

In addition, and subject to some exceptions, the Bank Holding Company Act and the Change in Bank Control Act, together with their regulations, require Federal Reserve approval prior to any person or company acquiring “control” of a bank holding company. Control is conclusively presumed to exist if an individual or company acquires 25% or more of any class of voting securities of the bank holding company. Control is reputably presumed to exist if a person acquires 10% or more, but less than 25%, of any class of voting securities and either the institution has registered securities under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or no other person owns a greater percentage of that class of voting securities immediately after the transaction. The regulations provide a procedure for challenging this rebuttable control presumption.

 

In November 1999, Congress enacted the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (the “GLBA”), which made substantial revisions to the statutory restrictions separating banking activities from other financial activities. Under the GLBA, bank holding companies that are well-capitalized and well-managed and meet other conditions can elect to become “financial holding companies.” As financial holding companies, they and their subsidiaries are permitted to acquire or engage in previously impermissible activities such as insurance underwriting, securities underwriting and distribution, travel agency activities, insurance agency activities, merchant banking and other activities that the Federal Reserve determines to be financial in nature or complementary to these activities. Financial holding companies continue to be subject to the overall oversight and supervision of the Federal Reserve, but the GLBA applies the concept of functional regulation to the activities conducted by subsidiaries. For example, insurance activities would be subject to supervision and regulation by state insurance authorities. Although the Company has not elected to become a financial holding company in order to exercise the broader activity powers provided by the GLBA, the Company may elect to do so in the future.

Payment of Dividends

 

The Company is a legal entity separate and distinct from its banking subsidiary. The majority of the Company’s revenues are from dividends paid to the Company by its subsidiary. The Bank is subject to laws and regulations that limit the amount of dividends it can pay. In addition, both the Company and the Bank are subject to various regulatory restrictions relating to the payment of dividends, including requirements to maintain capital at or above regulatory minimums. Banking regulators have indicated that banking organizations should generally pay dividends only if the organization’s net income available to common shareholders over the past year has been sufficient to fully fund the dividends and the prospective rate of earnings retention appears consistent with the organization’s capital needs, asset quality and overall financial condition. The Company does not expect that any of these laws, regulations or policies will materially affect the ability of the Bank to pay dividends. During the year ended December 31, 2007 the Company declared $1,585,354 in dividends payable to shareholders.

 

The FDIC has the general authority to limit the dividends paid by insured banks if the payment is deemed an unsafe and unsound practice. The FDIC has indicated that paying dividends that deplete a bank’s capital base to an inadequate level would be an unsound and unsafe banking practice.

 

 

Insurance of Deposit Accounts, Assessments and Regulation by the FDIC

 

The deposits of the Bank are insured by the FDIC up to the limits set forth under applicable law. The deposits of the Bank subsidiary are subject to the deposit insurance assessments of the Deposit Insurance Fund (“DIF”) of the FDIC.

 

The FDIC has implemented a risk-based deposit insurance assessment system under which the assessment rate for an insured institution may vary according to regulatory capital levels of the institution and other factors, including supervisory evaluations. These rate schedules are subject to future adjustments by the FDIC. In addition, the FDIC has authority to impose special assessments from time to time.

 

The FDIC is authorized to prohibit any DIF-insured institution from engaging in any activity that the FDIC determines by regulation or order to pose a serious threat to the deposit insurance fund. Also, the FDIC may initiate enforcement actions against banks, after first giving the institution’s primary regulatory authority an opportunity to take such action. The FDIC may terminate the deposit insurance of any depository institution if it determines, after a hearing, that the institution has engaged or is engaging in unsafe or unsound practices, is in an unsafe or unsound condition to continue operations, or has violated any applicable law, regulation, order or any condition imposed in writing by the FDIC. It also may suspend deposit insurance temporarily during the hearing process for the permanent termination of insurance, if the institution has no tangible capital. If deposit insurance is terminated, the deposits at the institution at the time of termination, less subsequent withdrawals, shall continue to be insured for a period from six months to two years, as determined by the FDIC. The Company is not aware of any existing circumstances that could result in termination of any of the Bank’s deposit insurance.

 

 

Capital Requirements

 

The Federal Reserve Board has issued risk-based and leverage capital guidelines applicable to banking organizations that it supervises. Under the risk-based capital requirements, the Company and the Bank are each generally required to maintain a minimum ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets (including certain off-balance sheet activities, such as standby letters of credit) of 8%. At least half of the total capital must be composed of “Tier 1 Capital”, which is defined as common equity, retained earnings, qualifying perpetual preferred stock, and minority interest in common equity accounts of consolidated subsidiaries less certain intangibles. The remainder may consist of “Tier 2 Capital”, which is defined as specific subordinated debt, some hybrid capital instruments and other qualifying preferred stock, a limited amount of the loan loss allowance and pretax unrealized holding gains on certain equity securities. In addition, each of the federal banking regulatory agencies has established minimum leverage capital requirements for banking organizations. Under these requirements, banking organizations must maintain a minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to adjusted average quarterly assets equal to 3% to 5%, subject to

 

5


 

federal bank regulatory evaluation of an organization’s overall safety and soundness. In sum, the capital measures used by the federal banking regulators are:

 

 

the Total Capital ratio, which is the total of Tier 1 Capital and Tier 2 Capital;

 

the Tier 1 Capital ratio; and

 

the leverage ratio.

 

Under these regulations, a bank will be:

 

 

“well capitalized” if it has a Total Capital ratio of 10% or greater, a Tier 1 Capital ratio of 6% or greater, a leverage ratio of 5% or greater, and is not subject to any written agreement, order, capital directive, or prompt corrective action directive by a federal bank regulatory agency to meet and maintain a specific capital level for any capital measure;

 

 

“adequately capitalized” if it has a Total Capital ratio of 8% or greater, a Tier 1 Capital ratio of 4% or greater, and a leverage ratio of 4% or greater – or 3% in certain circumstances – and is not well capitalized;

 

 

“undercapitalized” if it has a Total Capital ratio of less than 8% or greater, a Tier 1 Capital ratio of less than 4% - or 3% in certain circumstances, or a leverage ratio of less than 4%;

 

 

“significantly undercapitalized” if it has a Total Capital ratio of less than 6%, a Tier 1 Capital ratio of less than 3%, or a leverage ratio of less than 3%; or

 

 

“critically undercapitalized” if its tangible equity is equal to or less than 2% of average quarterly tangible assets.

 

The risk-based capital standards of the Federal Reserve Board explicitly identify concentrations of credit risk and the risk arising from non-traditional activities, as well as an institution’s ability to manage these risks, as important factors to be taken into account by the agency in assessing an institution’s overall capital adequacy. The capital guidelines also provide that an institution’s exposure to a decline in the economic value of its capital due to changes in interest rates be considered by the agency as a factor in evaluating a banking organization’s capital adequacy.

 

The FDIC may take various corrective actions against any undercapitalized bank and any bank that fails to submit an acceptable capital restoration plan or fails to implement a plan accepted by the FDIC. These powers include, but are not limited to, requiring the institution to be recapitalized, prohibiting asset growth, restricting interest rates paid, requiring prior approval of capital distributions by any bank holding company that controls the institution, requiring divestiture by the institution of its subsidiaries or by the holding company of the institution itself, requiring new election of directors, and requiring the dismissal of directors and officers. The Bank presently maintains sufficient capital to remain in compliance with these capital requirements.

 

Other Safety and Soundness Regulations

 

There are a number of obligations and restrictions imposed on bank holding companies and their depository institution subsidiaries by federal law and regulatory policy that are designed to reduce potential loss exposure to the depositors of such depository institutions and to the FDIC insurance funds in the event that the depository institution is insolvent or is in danger of becoming insolvent. For example, under the requirements of the Federal Reserve Board with respect to bank holding company operations, a bank holding company is required to serve as a source of financial strength to its subsidiary depository institutions and to commit resources to support such institutions in circumstances where it might not do so

otherwise. In addition, the “cross-guarantee” provisions of federal law require insured depository institutions under common control to reimburse the FDIC for any loss suffered or reasonably anticipated by the FDIC as a result of the insolvency of commonly controlled insured depository institutions or for any assistance provided by the FDIC to commonly controlled insured depository institutions in danger of failure. The FDIC may decline to enforce the cross-guarantee provision if it determines that a waiver is in the best interests of the deposit insurance fund. The FDIC’s claim for reimbursement under the cross guarantee provisions is superior to claims of shareholders of the insured depository institution or its holding company but is subordinate to claims of depositors, secured creditors and nonaffiliated holders of subordinated debt of the commonly controlled insured depository institutions.

 

 

Interstate Banking and Branching

 

Current federal law authorizes interstate acquisitions of banks and bank holding companies without geographic limitation. Effective June 1, 1997, a bank headquartered in one state is authorized to merge with a bank headquartered in another state, as long as neither of the states had opted out of such interstate merger authority prior to such date. After a bank has established branches in a state through an interstate merger transaction, the bank may establish and acquire additional branches at any location in the state where a bank headquartered in that state could have established or acquired branches under applicable federal or state law.

 

 

Monetary Policy

 

The commercial banking business is affected not only by general economic conditions but also by the monetary policies of the Federal Reserve Board. The instruments of monetary policy employed by the Federal Reserve Board include open market operations in United States government securities, changes in the discount rate on member bank borrowing and changes in reserve requirements against deposits held by all federally insured banks. The Federal Reserve Board’s monetary policies have had a significant effect on the operating results of commercial banks in the past and are expected to continue to do so in the future. In view of changing conditions in the national and international economy and in the money markets, as well as the effect of actions by monetary fiscal authorities, including the Federal Reserve Board, no prediction can be made as to possible future changes in interest rates, deposit levels, loan demand or the business and earnings of the Bank.

 

 

Federal Reserve System

 

In 1980, Congress enacted legislation that imposed reserve requirements on all depository institutions that maintain transaction accounts or nonpersonal time deposits. NOW accounts, money market deposit accounts and other types of accounts that permit payments or transfers to third parties fall within the definition of transaction accounts and are subject to these reserve requirements, as are any nonpersonal time deposits at an institution.

 

These percentages are subject to adjustment by the Federal Reserve Board. Because required reserves must be maintained in the form of vault cash or in a non-interest-bearing account at, or on behalf of, a Federal Reserve Bank, the effect of the reserve requirement is to reduce the amount of the institution’s interest-earning assets.

 

 

Transactions with Affiliates

 

Transactions between banks and their affiliates are governed by Sections 23A and 23B of the Federal Reserve Act. An affiliate of a bank is any bank or entity that controls, is controlled by or is under common control with such bank. Generally, Sections 23A and 23B (i) limit the extent to which the Bank or its subsidiaries may engage in “covered transactions” with any one affiliate to an amount equal to 10% of such institution’s capital stock and surplus, and maintain an aggregate limit on all such transactions with affiliates to an amount equal to 20% of such capital stock and surplus, and (ii) require that all such transactions be on terms substantially the same, or at least as favorable, to the association or subsidiary as those provided to a non-affiliate. The term “covered transaction” includes the making of loans, purchase of assets, issuance of a guarantee and similar other types of transactions.

The Federal Reserve Act and related regulations impose specific restrictions on loans to directors, executive officers and principal shareholders of banks. Under Section 22(h) of the Federal Reserve Act, loans to a director, an executive officer or to a principal shareholder of a bank, and some affiliated entities of any of the foregoing, may not exceed, together with all other outstanding loans to such person and affiliated entities, the bank’s loan-to-one borrower limit. Loans in the aggregate to insiders and their related interests as a class may not exceed two times the bank’s unimpaired capital and unimpaired surplus until the bank’s total assets equal or exceed $100,000,000, at which time the aggregate is limited to the bank’s unimpaired capital and unimpaired surplus. Section 22(h) also prohibits loans, above amounts prescribed by the appropriate federal banking agency, to directors, executive officers and principal shareholders of a bank or bank holding company, and their respective affiliates, unless such loan is approved in advance by a majority of the board of directors of the bank with any “interested” director not participating in the voting. The FDIC has prescribed the loan amount, which includes all other outstanding loans to such person, as to which such prior board of director approval is required, as being the greater of $25,000 or 5% of capital and surplus (up to $500,000). Section 22(h) requires that loans to directors, executive officers and principal shareholders be made on terms and underwriting standards substantially the same as offered in comparable transactions to other persons.

 

 

Community Reinvestment Act

 

Under the Community Reinvestment Act and related regulations, depository institutions have an affirmative obligation to assist in meeting the credit needs of their market areas, including low and moderate-income areas, consistent with safe and sound banking practice. The Community Reinvestment Act requires the adoption by each institution of a Community Reinvestment Act statement for each of its market areas describing the depository institution’s efforts to assist in its community’s credit needs. Depository institutions are periodically examined for compliance with the Community Reinvestment Act and are periodically assigned ratings in this regard. Banking regulators consider a depository institution’s Community Reinvestment Act rating when reviewing applications to establish new branches, undertake new lines of business, and/or acquire part or all of another depository institution. An unsatisfactory rating can significantly delay or even prohibit regulatory approval of a proposed transaction by a bank holding company or its depository institution subsidiaries.

 

The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act and federal bank regulators have made various changes to the Community Reinvestment Act. Among other changes, Community Reinvestment Act agreements with private parties must be disclosed and annual reports must be made to a bank’s primary federal regulator. A bank holding company will not be permitted to become a financial holding company and no new activities authorized under the GLBA may be commenced by a holding company or by a bank financial subsidiary if any of its bank subsidiaries received less than a “satisfactory” rating in its latest Community Reinvestment Act examination.

 

 

Fair Lending; Consumer Laws

 

In addition to the Community Reinvestment Act, other federal and state laws regulate various lending and consumer aspects of the banking business. Governmental agencies, including the Department of Housing and Urban Development, the Federal Trade Commission and the Department of Justice, have become concerned that prospective borrowers experience discrimination in their efforts to obtain loans from depository and other lending institutions. These agencies have brought litigation against depository institutions alleging discrimination against borrowers. Many of these suits have been settled, in some cases for material sums, short of a full trial.

 

Recently, these governmental agencies have clarified what they consider to be lending discrimination and have specified various factors that they will use to determine the existence of lending discrimination under the Equal Credit Opportunity Act and the Fair Housing Act, including evidence that a lender discriminated on a prohibited basis, evidence that a lender treated applicants differently based on prohibited factors in the absence of evidence that the treatment was the result of prejudice or a conscious intention to discriminate, and evidence that a lender applied an otherwise neutral non-discriminatory policy uniformly to all applicants, but the practice had a discriminatory effect, unless the practice could be justified as a business necessity.

Banks and other depository institutions also are subject to numerous consumer-oriented laws and regulations. These laws, which include the Truth in Lending Act, the Truth in Savings Act, the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act, the Electronic Funds Transfer Act, the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, and the Fair Housing Act, require compliance by depository institutions with various disclosure requirements and requirements regulating the availability of funds after deposit or the making of some loans to customers.

 

 

Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999

 

The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 was signed into law on November 12, 1999. The GLBA covers a broad range of issues, including a repeal of most of the restrictions on affiliations among depository institutions, securities firms and insurance companies. The following description summarizes some of its significant provisions.

 

The GLBA repeals sections 20 and 32 of the Glass-Steagall Act, thus permitting unrestricted affiliations between banks and securities firms. It also permits bank holding companies to elect to become financial holding companies. A financial holding company may engage in or acquire companies that engage in a broad range of financial services, including securities activities such as underwriting, dealing, investment, merchant banking, insurance underwriting, sales and brokerage activities. In order to become a financial holding company, the bank holding company and all of its affiliated depository institutions must be well-capitalized, well-managed and have at least a satisfactory Community Reinvestment Act rating.

 

The GLBA provides that the states continue to have the authority to regulate insurance activities, but prohibits the states in most instances from preventing or significantly interfering with the ability of a bank, directly or through an affiliate, to engage in insurance sales, solicitations or cross-marketing activities. Although the states generally must regulate bank insurance activities in a nondiscriminatory manner, the states may continue to adopt and enforce rules that specifically regulate bank insurance activities in specific areas identified under the law. Under the new law, the federal bank regulatory agencies adopted insurance consumer protection regulations that apply to sales practices, solicitations, advertising and disclosures.

 

The GLBA adopts a system of functional regulation under which the Federal Reserve Board is designated as the umbrella regulator for financial holding companies, but financial holding company affiliates are principally regulated by functional regulators such as the FDIC for state nonmember bank affiliates, the Securities and Exchange Commission for securities affiliates, and state insurance regulators for insurance affiliates. It repeals the broad exemption of banks from the definitions of “broker” and “dealer” for purposes of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. It also identifies a set of specific activities, including traditional bank trust and fiduciary activities, in which a bank may engage without being deemed a “broker,” and a set of activities in which a bank may engage without being deemed a “dealer.” Additionally, the GLBA makes conforming changes in the definitions of “broker” and “dealer” for purposes of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended.

 

The GLBA contains extensive customer privacy protection provisions. Under these provisions, a financial institution must provide to its customers, both at the inception of the customer relationship and on an annual basis, the institution’s policies and procedures regarding the handling of customers’ nonpublic personal financial information. The law provides that, except for specific limited exceptions, an institution may not provide such personal information to unaffiliated third parties unless the institution discloses to the customer that such information may be so provided and the customer is given the opportunity to opt out of such disclosure. An institution may not disclose to a non-affiliated third party, other than to a consumer reporting agency, customer account numbers or other similar account identifiers for marketing purposes. The GLBA also provides that the states may adopt customer privacy protections that are more strict than those contained in the act.

                 Bank Secrecy Act

 

The GLBA and the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) contain comprehensive customer privacy protection provisions. Under these provisions, a financial institution is required to provide to its customers, at the inception of the customer relationship and annually thereafter, the Company’s policies and procedures concerning the handling of customers’ nonpublic personal financial information. The BSA provides that, except for limited exceptions, the Company may not provide such personal information to unaffiliated third parties unless that Company discloses to its customer that such information may be so provided and the customer is given the opportunity to “opt out” of such disclosure. The Company may not disclose to a non-affiliated third party, other than to a consumer reporting agency, customer account numbers or other similar account identifiers for marketing purposes. The BSA also makes it a criminal offense to obtain or attempt to obtain customer information of a financial nature by fraudulent or deceptive means, except in limited circumstances.

 

 

Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002

 

In response to the significant decline in investor confidence in the capital market after corporate scandals and business failures, Congress enacted the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, which has developed the acronym known as SOX. The Act is intended to restore or maintain investor confidence by significantly expanding the rules for corporate governance, improving the oversight of auditors of public companies, and focusing the attention of companies and auditors on the effectiveness of internal controls. The stated objective of this Act is “to protect investors by improving the accuracy and reliability of corporate disclosures made pursuant to the securities law.”

 

Among the major areas that the Act addresses are the pre-approval by audit committees of services provided by external auditors, the rotation of audit partners of public accounting firms who are assigned to a particular engagement, the independence requirements of Audit Committee members, an oversight board which will perform quality control reviews of the audit work performed by public accounting firms, “whistleblower” provisions to encourage company employees to address concerns directly to the Audit Committee without fear of potential termination by management, and quarterly certifications of a company’s filings with the SEC must be made by the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer.

 

Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires management of public companies to design and implement a system of internal controls over financial reporting. Section 404(a) requires management to assess and report on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting. Section 404(b) requires independent auditor attestation on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting. Both of these attestation requirements are to become part of the Company’s annual financial reporting on Form 10-K. The Act required companies with a market capitalization of at least $75 million to begin filing under the Section 404 requirements for fiscal years ending on or after November 15, 2004. These companies are known as “Accelerated Filers.” The Company is a non-accelerated filer, and will be required to comply with the Section 404(a) reporting requirements for management’s attestation for the year ending December 31, 2007. The Company will be required to comply with the Section 404(b) reporting requirements for auditor attestation for the year ending December 31, 2008. The Securities and Exchange Commission has proposed a one-year extension of the Section 404(b) requirement for non-accelerated filers that would require an independent auditor attestation of the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting beginning with the year ending December 31, 2009.

 

 

Future Regulatory Uncertainty

 

Because federal regulation of financial institutions changes regularly and is the subject of constant legislative debate, the Company cannot forecast how federal regulation of financial institutions may change in the future and the potential impact to its operations. Although Congress in recent years has sought to reduce the regulatory burden on financial institutions with respect to the approval of specific transactions, the Company fully expects that the financial institution industry will remain heavily regulated in the near future and that additional laws or regulations may be adopted further regulating specific banking practices.

ITEM 1A.        RISK FACTORS

 

An investment in our common stock involves risks and you should not invest in our common stock unless you can afford to lose some or all of your investment. These risk factors may adversely affect our financial conditions and future earnings. In that event, the trading price of our common stock could decline and you could lose all or a part of your investment. You should read this section together with the other information, including our consolidated financial statements and related notes to the consolidated financial statements.

 

Our future success is dependent on our ability to compete effectively in the highly competitive banking industry.

 

The Company and the Bank face vigorous competition from other banks and other financial institutions, including savings and loan associations, savings banks, finance companies and credit unions for deposits, loans, and other financial services in our market area. Many of these banks and other financial institutions are significantly larger than we are and have greater access to capital and other resources, as well as larger lending limits and branch systems, and offer a wider array of banking services. To a limited extent, we also compete with other providers of financial services, such as money market mutual funds, brokerage firms, consumer finance companies, insurance companies and governmental organizations which may offer more favorable financing than we are able. Many of our non-bank competitors have advantages over us in providing certain services. This competition may reduce or limit our margins and our market share and may adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

 

 

We may be adversely affected by economic conditions in our market area.

 

The Company and the Bank are headquartered in the Town of Blackstone, which is part of Nottoway County, in Virginia. Our market includes the counties of Amelia, Nottoway, Prince Edward, Chesterfield, the City of Colonial Heights, and the Town of South Hill all located in the Commonwealth of Virginia. Because our lending is concentrated in this market, we will be affected by the general economic conditions in this market. Changes in the suburban and rural markets we serve may influence the growth rate of our loans and deposits, the quality of the loan portfolio and the loan and deposit pricing that we may obtain. Significant decline in general economic conditions caused by inflation, recession, unemployment or other factors beyond our control would impact these local economic conditions and the demand for banking products and services generally, which could negatively affect our financial condition and performance.

 

 

We rely heavily on our management team and the services of key personnel.

 

The Company and the Bank represent a customer-focused, relationship-driven, and community-oriented financial services organization. The Company expects our future growth to be driven in a large part by the relationships maintained with our customers by Joseph D. Borgerding, President and Chief Executive Officer, and our other executive management team, and our lending officers. Neither the Company nor the Bank has employment agreements with Mr. Borgerding, executive management or our lending officers. The unexpected loss of Mr. Borgerding or other key employees could have a material adverse effect on our business and possibly result in reduced revenues and earnings. The Bank has invested in bank-owned life insurance that covers Mr. Borgerding and certain other members of executive management and the lending officers, but not all.

 

The business strategy will require us to continue to attract, hire, motivate and retain skilled personnel to develop new customer relationships as well as new financial products and services. Many experienced banking professionals employed by our competitors are covered by agreements not to compete or solicit their existing customers if they were to leave their current employment. These agreements make the recruitment of these professionals more difficult. The market for these people is competitive, and we cannot assure you that we will be successful in attracting, hiring, motivating or retaining them.

 

 

11


 

Our need to comply with extensive and complex government regulation could have an adverse effect on our business.

 

The banking industry is subject to extensive regulation by state and federal banking authorities. Many of the banking regulations we are governed by are intended to protect depositors, the public or the insurance fund maintained by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, not shareholders. Recently enacted, proposed and future banking legislation and regulations have had, and will continue to have, or may have, a significant impact on the financial services industry. Banking regulations affect our lending practices, capital structure, investment practices, dividend policy and many other aspects of our business. These requirements may constrain our rate of growth and our earnings. The burden imposed by these federal and state regulations may place banks in general, and specifically Citizens Bancorp of Virginia and Citizens Bank & Trust Company, at a competitive disadvantage compared to less regulated competitors. In addition, the cost of compliance with regulatory requirements could adversely affect our earnings.

 

In addition, because federal regulation of financial institutions changes regularly and is the subject of constant legislative debate, we cannot forecast how federal regulation of financial institutions may change in the future nor the impact those changes may have on our operations. Although Congress in recent years has sought to reduce the regulatory burden on financial institutions with respect to the approval of specific transactions, we fully expect that the financial institution industry will remain heavily regulated in the near future and that additional laws or regulations may be adopted further regulating specific banking practices.

 

The cost of being a public company is proportionately higher for small companies like us due to the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

 

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the related rules and regulations promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission have increased the scope, complexity, and cost of corporate governance, reporting and disclosure practices. These regulations are applicable to the Company. We expect to experience increasing compliance costs, including costs related to internal controls and the requirement that our auditors attest to and report on the effectiveness of our internal controls as a result of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The regulations are applicable to us for the year ending December 31, 2007 with respect to management’s attestation to the effectiveness of internal controls as it relates to financial reporting. Under current regulations, our auditor’s will be required to attest to the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting for the year ending December 31, 2008. The Securities and Exchange Commission has proposed a one-year extension of the Section 404(b) requirement for non-accelerated filers that would require an independent auditor attestation of the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting beginning with the year ending December 31, 2009.

 

 

Our operations depend upon third party vendors that perform services for us.

 

The Bank outsources many of its operating and banking functions, including key computer systems software, network transmission services and the interchange and transmission services for the ATM network. As such, the Company’s and the Bank’s success and the ability to expand our operations depend on the services provided by these third parties. Disputes with these third parties can adversely affect the operations. The Bank may not be able to engage appropriate vendors, in a timely manner, to replace any vendors that are unable to perform with new vendors capable of servicing our needs.

 

Our profitability depends on our ability to manage our balance sheet to minimize the effects of interest rate fluctuation on our net interest margin.

 

Our results of operations depend on the stability of our net interest margin, which is the difference in the yield we earn on our earning assets and our cost of funds, both of which are influenced by interest rate fluctuations. Interest rates, because they are influenced by, among other things, expectations about

 

12


 

future events, including the level of economic activity, federal monetary and fiscal policy and geo-political stability, are not predictable or controllable. In addition, the interest rates we can earn on our loan and investment portfolios and the interest rates we pay on our deposits are heavily influenced by competitive factors. Community banks are often at a competitive disadvantage in managing their cost of funds compared to the large regional, super-regional or national banks that have access to the national and international capital markets. These factors influence our ability to maintain a stable net interest margin. We seek to maintain a neutral position in terms of the volume of assets and liabilities that mature or re-price during any period so that we may reasonably predict our net interest margin; however, interest rate fluctuations, loan prepayments, loan production and deposit flows are constantly changing and influence our ability to maintain this neutral position. The greater the amount of maturities or re-pricing that occurs in any given period to either the earning assets or to the interest-bearing deposit liabilities will result in a greater sensitivity to fluctuating interest rates. Customer preferences for certain loan types, fixed-rate versus adjustable-rate, and preferences towards deposit products that may or may not be interest bearing, and savings versus time deposits all contribute to potentially impacting the interest margin; either favorably or unfavorably. Although management is unable to control these preferences, there are processes that assist in monitoring and planning for such changes in customer preferences. At December 31, 2007, the Company’s balance sheet was positioned to be liability-sensitive for the next 12 months, which means decreases in interest rates should have a net favorable effect on the interest margin. In the longer term, the balance sheet becomes more asset sensitive and increases in interest rates, in the longer term, will have a favorable impact on the interest rate margin. However, changes in interest rates that are contrary to these expectations, could negatively impact the interest margin and ultimately earnings.

 

Any additional credit losses or deterioration in credit quality could negatively impact our financial results.

 

Management seeks to maintain a loan portfolio that is well diversified in terms of risk and credit quality. As of December 31, 2007, the portfolio consisted of the following loan categories: residential (1-to-4 family) loans 45.8%, commercial real estate and construction loans 34.1%, commercial loans 11.2%, and consumer loans 8.9%. Our lending focus has generally favored real estate-secured loans over unsecured loans, as a means of mitigating possible losses due to credit losses. A major change in the real estate market, such as deterioration in the value of collateral, or in the local or national economy, could adversely affect our customers’ ability to repay these loans, which in turn could impact us. Risk of loan defaults and foreclosures are unavoidable in the banking industry, and we try to limit our exposure to this risk by monitoring our extensions of credit carefully. We cannot fully eliminate credit risk, and as a result credit losses may occur in the future.

1 A special, one-time cash dividend of $0.05 per share was paid in addition to the regular $0.16 per share for the fourth quarter of 2006.

 

As of March 21, 2008, the Company had approximately 851 shareholders of record of Common Stock.

 

Dividend Policy

 

The Company historically has paid cash dividends on a quarterly basis. The final determination of the timing, amount and payment of dividends on the Common Stock is at the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors and will depend upon the earnings of the Company and its subsidiary, principally the Bank, the financial condition of the Company and other factors, including general economic conditions and applicable governmental regulations and policies as discussed in Item 1., “Business – Supervision and Regulation,” above.

 

The Company is organized under the Virginia Stock Corporation Act, which prohibits the payment of a dividend if, after giving it effect, the corporation would not be able to pay its debts as they become due in the usual course of business or if the corporation’s total assets would be less than the sum of its total liabilities plus the amount that would be needed, if the corporation were to be dissolved, to satisfy the preferential rights upon dissolution of any preferred shareholders.

 

The Company is a legal entity separate and distinct from its subsidiary. Its ability to distribute cash dividends will depend primarily on the ability of the Bank to pay dividends to it, and the Bank is subject to laws and regulations that limit the amount of dividends that it can pay. As a state member bank, the Bank is subject to certain restrictions imposed by the reserve and capital requirements of federal and Virginia banking statutes and regulations. Under Virginia law, a bank may not declare a dividend in excess of its undivided profits. Additionally, the Bank may not declare a dividend if the total amount of all dividends, including the proposed dividend, declared by it in any calendar year exceeds the total of its retained net income of that year to date, combined with its retained net income of the two preceding years, unless the dividend is approved by the Federal Reserve.

 

15


 

              The Federal Reserve and the state of Virginia have the general authority to limit the dividends paid by insured banks if the payment is deemed an unsafe and unsound practice. Both the state of Virginia and the Federal Reserve have indicated that paying dividends that deplete a bank’s capital base to an inadequate level would be an unsound and unsafe banking practice. Under the Federal Reserve’s regulations, the Bank may not declare or pay any dividend in excess of its net income for the current year plus any retained net income from the prior two calendar years. The Bank may also not declare or pay a dividend without the approval of its board and two-thirds of its shareholders if the dividend would exceed its undivided profits, as reported to the Federal Reserve.

 

In addition, the Company is subject to certain regulatory requirements to maintain capital at or above regulatory minimums. These regulatory requirements regarding capital affect its dividend policies. The Federal Reserve has indicated that a bank holding company should generally pay dividends only if its net income available to common shareholders over the past year has been sufficient to fully fund the dividends, and the prospective rate of earnings retention appears consistent with the organization’s capital needs, asset quality and overall financial condition.

 

Stock Repurchases

 

The Board of Directors of the Company did approve a Stock Repurchase Plan at its regular meeting on July 18, 2007. The Repurchase Plan is structured under the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Rule 10b5-1. The Company appointed FTN Midwest Securities Corp. of Nashville, Tennessee to oversee the acquisition of the Company’s stock. The Plan went into effect on September 1, 2007, for an initial three month term ending November 30, 2007. The Repurchase Plan was extended for additional three month terms by the Board of Directors at its regularly scheduled meetings on November 28, 2007 and February 21, 2008. The Plan calls for the repurchase of up to 20,000 shares of stock for each three month term.

ITEM 7.    MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND

                RESULTS OF OPERATION

 

General

 

Management’s discussion and analysis is intended to assist the reader in evaluating and understanding the consolidated results of operations and financial condition of the Company and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. The following discussion provides information about the major components of the results of operations and financial condition, liquidity, and capital resources of the Company.

 

The Company conducts the general business of a commercial bank, offering traditional lending and deposit products to business and individuals. Revenue is generated primarily from interest income received on loans, investments combined with fee income and other miscellaneous sources. This income is primarily offset by interest paid on deposits and borrowed funds, provision for loan losses and other noninterest expenses such as salaries and employee benefits, occupancy expense and other miscellaneous expenses.

 

Forward Looking Statements

 

The Company makes forward looking statements in this annual report that are subject to risks and uncertainties. These forward looking statements include statements regarding profitability, liquidity, allowance for loan losses, interest rate sensitivity, market risk, growth strategy, and financial and other goals. The words “believes,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “projects,” “contemplates,” “anticipates,” “forecasts,” “intends,” or other similar words or terms are intended to identify forward looking statements.

 

These forward looking statements are subject to significant uncertainties because they are based upon or are affected by factors including:

 

 

the ability to successfully manage growth or to implement growth strategies if the Company is unable to identify attractive markets, locations or opportunities to expand in the future;

 

maintaining capital levels adequate to support growth;

 

maintaining cost controls and asset qualities as new branches are opened or acquired;

 

reliance on an experienced management team, including ability to attract and retain key personnel;

 

the successful management of interest rate risk; including changes in interest rates and interest rate policies;

 

changes in general economic and business conditions in our market area;

 

risks inherent in making loans such as repayment risks and fluctuating collateral values;

 

competition with other banks and financial institutions, and companies outside of the banking industry, including those companies that have substantially greater access to capital and other resources;

 

demand, development and acceptance of new products and services;

 

the ability to rely on third party vendors that perform critical services for the Company;

 

problems with technology utilized by the Company;

 

changing trends in customer profiles and behavior; and

 

changes in banking and other laws and regulations.

 

Because of these uncertainties, actual future results may be materially different from the results indicated by these forward looking statements. In addition, past results of operations do not necessarily indicate future results.

Critical Accounting Policies

 

The financial condition and results of operations presented in the Consolidated Financial Statements, accompanying Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements and management's discussion and analysis are, to a large degree, dependent upon the accounting policies of the Company. The selection and application of these accounting policies involve judgments, estimates, and uncertainties that are susceptible to change.

 

Presented below is a discussion of those accounting policies that management believes are the most important (Critical Accounting Policies) to the portrayal and understanding of the Company's financial condition and results of operations. These Critical Accounting Policies require management's most difficult, subjective and complex judgments about matters that are inherently uncertain. In the event that different assumptions or conditions were to prevail, and depending upon the severity of such changes, the possibility of materially different financial condition or results of operations is a reasonable likelihood. See also Note 1 of the Notes to Financial Statements for a summary of significant accounting policies.

 

 

Allowance for Loan Losses

 

The Company monitors and maintains an allowance for loan losses to absorb an estimate of probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio. The Company maintains policies and procedures that address the systems of controls over the following areas of maintenance of the allowance: the systematic methodology used to determine the appropriate level of the allowance to provide assurance they are maintained in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; the accounting policies for loan charge-offs and recoveries; the assessment and measurement of impairment in the loan portfolio; and the loan grading system.

 

The Company evaluates various loans individually for impairment as required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan, and SFAS No. 118, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan - Income Recognition and Disclosures. Loans evaluated individually for impairment include non-performing loans, such as loans on non-accrual, adversely classified loans, loans past due by 90 days or more, restructured loans and other loans selected by management. The evaluations are based upon discounted expected cash flows or collateral valuation concerns. If the evaluation shows that a loan is individually impaired, then a specific reserve is established for the amount of impairment. If a loan evaluated individually is not impaired, then the loan is assessed for impairment under SFAS No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies, with a group of loans that have similar characteristics.

 

For loans without individual measures of impairment, the Company makes estimates of losses for groups of loans as required by SFAS No. 5. Loans are grouped by similar characteristics, including the type of loan, the assigned loan grade and the general collateral type. A loss rate reflecting the expected loss inherent in a group of loans is derived from historical loss data experienced by the Bank for a given loan grade, the predominant collateral type for the group and the terms of the loan. The resulting estimate of losses for groups of loans are further adjusted for relevant environmental factors and other conditions of the loan portfolio, including: borrower and industry concentrations; levels and trends in delinquencies, charge-offs and recoveries; changes in underwriting standards and risk selection; level of experience, ability and depth of lending management; and national and local economic conditions.

 

The amount of estimated impairment for individually evaluated loans and groups of loans is added together for a total estimate of potential loan losses. This estimate of losses is compared to the allowance for loan losses of the Bank as of the evaluation date and, if the estimate of losses is greater than the allowance, an additional provision to the allowance would be made. If the estimate of losses is less than the allowance, the degree to which the allowance exceeds the estimate is evaluated to determine whether the allowance falls outside a range of estimates. If the estimate of losses is below the range of reasonable estimates, the allowance would be reduced by way of a credit to the provision for loan losses.

 

 

20


 

The Bank recognizes the inherent imprecision in estimates of losses due to various uncertainties and variability related to the factors used, and therefore a reasonable range around the estimate of losses is derived and used to ascertain whether the allowance is too high. If different assumptions or conditions were to prevail and it is determined that the allowance is not adequate to absorb the new estimate of probable losses, an additional provision for loan losses would be made, which amount may be material to the Financial Statements. As of December 31, 2007, management believes that the Allowance for Loan Losses is appropriate for the expected loss in the loan portfolio as of that date.

 

Executive Overview

 

The Company reported net income of $3,395,234 in 2007, an increase of .84% or $28,376 from 2006 net income of $3,366,858. Net income on a basic and diluted per share basis was reported as $1.39 and $1.38 in 2007 and 2006, respectively. Net income for 2007 represents a historical record for the Company. Earnings for 2007 and 2006 each included one-time recoveries of previously charged-off loans resulting in a recovery of the provision for loan losses totaling $157,400, and $208,637, respectively, net of income taxes. Core earnings exclusive of the recoveries were $3,237,834, or $1.33 per share and $3,158,221, or $1.29 per share, respectively. Core earnings of the Company showed improvement in 2007 as compared to 2006 despite the challenging banking environment. In November 2007, the Bank opened a Loan Production Office in Midlothian, Virginia with the expectation of developing new commercial banking relationships in this high growth area of Chesterfield County.

Summary

 

Total assets increased $9.0 million during 2007 from $280.9 million in 2006 to $289.9 million, or a 3.2% increase. Loans increased $11.2 million during 2007 from 198.2 million in 2006 to $209.4 million, or a 5.7% increase. Average earning assets for 2007 increased by $6.0 million as compared to the annual average for 2006. This increase was the result of average loan balances increasing $3.1 million, federal funds sold increasing $2.4 million and investment securities increasing $493 thousand over the prior year.

Total deposits were $243.0 million at December 31, 2007, an increase of $3.7 million or 1.5% compared to $239.3 million at the end of 2006. On average, deposit account balances were $242.0 million for 2007 as compared to $236.5 million for 2006; or an increase of $5.5 million. The deposit categories that saw the highest average balance increase over 2006 included time deposits that were up $4.7 million, savings deposits up $2.0 million and non-interest bearing deposits up $232 thousand. Interest-bearing demand deposit accounts decreased by $1.4 million from the previous year. Other borrowings consisted of overnight, commercial repurchase agreements known as the Investment Sweeps product, of which the deposits are not insured by FDIC but the Bank provides US Government or Federal Agency securities sufficient to cover average account balances. During 2007 the Investment Sweeps product balances averaged $6.0 million; or an increase of $801 thousand over the balance for 2006 of $5.2 million.

 

Stockholders' equity increased by $2.3 million during 2007, predominantly due to earnings, net of $1.6 million in cash dividends paid, and adjustments to accumulated other comprehensive income. Book value per share increased 6.8% or $0.97 to $15.33 at December 31, 2007, from $14.36 at December 31, 2006.

 

The Company’s return on average assets (ROAA) for 2007 was 1.19% compared to 1.21% in 2006 while the return on average equity (ROAE) was 9.38% for 2007 compared to 9.72% in 2006. The Company experienced growth in its core earnings in 2007 as net interest income increased $119 thousand or 1.12% and non-interest income increased $100 thousand or 4.34% as compared to 2006. These increases in income were partially offset by an increase in noninterest expense of 0.73% or $63 thousand. This means that the Company realized an increase in pre-tax income of 1.67%. The Company’s improved core earnings are primarily the result of its strategies to improve the net interest margin by improving earning asset yields, and focus on increasing low-cost deposits as a percentage of total deposit balances and, to a lesser degree, a slightly improved interest rate environment in 2007 versus 2006. Another contributor to a higher net income before provision for income taxes for 2007 was a one-time recovery from a previously charged-off loan. This recovery resulted in a net reversal of loan loss provision for the year of $238.5 thousand, pre-tax or $157 thousand, net of taxes. In 2006, a similar one-time recovery of a previously charged-off loan resulted in a net provision recovery of $316.1 thousand, pre-tax or $209 thousand, net of taxes. Exclusive of the one-time provision recoveries for each year, net income for 2007 improved by $80 thousand or 2.5%, as compared to 2006.

Net Interest Income

 

Net interest income, the amount by which interest income on interest earning assets exceeds interest expense on interest bearing liabilities, is the most significant component of the Company’s earnings. Net interest income is the function of several factors consisting of changes in the volume and composition (mix) of interest earning assets, funding sources, and market interest rates. While management’s policies influence these factors, external forces such as customer needs and demands, competition and economic and monetary policies of the Federal Reserve Board are also contributing forces.

 

The following two tables provide information needed to understand the impact on net interest income as it relates not only to changes in mix but also the impact from the combination of changes in rate and volume. As illustrated in the tables below, net interest income increased $119,000 in 2007 which was the result of a higher volume of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities than the average balances of each category for 2006. Rates for earning assets grew 35 basis points in 2007 as compared to 2006, however, interest-bearing liabilities increased by 49 basis points from 2006 or 14 basis points greater than earning assets.

 

The increase in volume on interest earning assets is primarily the result of executing of the Company’s strategic plan aimed at profitable growth of the Bank, with the focus of managing the net interest margin and high asset quality. The increase in interest bearing liability costs is primarily the result of higher short-term interest rates. The Company’s efforts are still to focus on growing low-cost deposits, provided these efforts are consistent with our goal of managing the overall interest margin.

Noninterest Income

 

The Company’s noninterest income increased 4.3% to $2.4 million in 2007, compared to $2.3 million in 2006, which is an increase of $100 thousand. When non-interest income is viewed exclusive of net gains on other real estate owned and investment securities gains, the result for 2007 is $2.391 million as compared to $2.189 million, an increase of $202 thousand or 9.2% as compared to 2006. With the exception of net gains, growth in noninterest income for 2007 is attributable to further growth in ATM transactions and increases in other fee services particularly in non-deposit investment services. The Company’s strategic plan remains focused on expanding the level of services where fees can be charged and that serve to deepen the Bank’s customer relationships, in its existing markets.

Noninterest Expense

 

The Company’s noninterest expense increased 0.7% to $8.7 million in 2007 from $8.6 million in 2006. The year ended December 31, 2007 reflected a full twelve months of operations for the South Hill, Virginia banking office; with operating and facilities expenses, including its five full-time staff included in this year’s figures. In the third quarter of 2007, the Bank hired a commercial lender to staff the new Loan Production Office located in Midlothian, Virginia and this location opened in November 2007. Personnel costs in 2007 were higher due to full-year staffing of the South Hill office, cost-of-living and merit salary increases over 2006 ($138 thousand), higher costs of providing health insurance ($38 thousand) and matching 401-K contributions ($3 thousand). Included in personnel costs is the expense of security personnel at the Colonial Heights, Virginia banking office. For 2007 this additional cost was $55 thousand. Offsetting some of the personnel costs for 2007 as compared to 2006 was the deferral of costs associated with the accounting for loan origination costs under FAS 91 ($23 thousand) and lower pension expense ($23 thousand).

 

Total occupancy expense for 2007 was $554 thousand, which is the same amount for 2006. Building depreciation and utility costs were higher in 2007 as compared to 2006. Depreciation expense for 2007 was $217 thousand, an increase of $36 thousand over 2006, due mainly to the addition of the South Hill banking office. Utility costs, exclusive of phone services, totaled $95 thousand for 2007 or $21 thousand greater than 2006. The full-year utility cost of the South Hill banking office along with the higher electric usage due to warmer-than-normal temperatures resulted in the higher cost over 2006. Repairs and maintenance costs were $155 thousand for 2007, which is a decrease of $51 thousand from the $206 thousand incurred in 2006.

 

Total equipment expense for 2007 totaled $689 thousand or a decrease of $67 thousand from 2006. The reduction in cost was due to the elimination of rented postage meters ($17 thousand), the elimination or reduction of service maintenance agreements ($39 thousand), and the decrease need to purchase small equipment item in 2007 as compared to 2006 ($16 thousand). Equipment depreciation was higher by $6 thousand in 2007 from 2006 and much of this was related to the South Hill banking office.

 

25


 

              Total other expenses for 2007 were $2.4 million, a decrease of 2.1% or $52 thousand from 2006 when the cost was $2.5 million. The overall decrease in other expense is the culmination of several steps taken by management to control operating costs. These initiatives included renegotiating existing contracts with vendors for more favorable pricing conditions or moving towards the use of new technology in operational areas that will, in the long term yield cost savings. The Bank renegotiated the local and long distance phone service at the end of 2006 and despite the addition of the South Hill banking office, telephone costs for 2007 were $93 thousand as compared to $109 thousand for 2006; a savings of $16 thousand. The strong asset quality of the loan portfolio is indicated by the fact that collection, foreclosure and OREO expenses for 2007 were $17 thousand, a decrease of $44 thousand from $61 thousand for 2006. Losses from fraudulent ATM transactions or checks were also down in 2007, totaling $14 thousand as compared to $28 thousand for 2006. In the first quarter of 2007, the Bank changed its internet banking provider, the new agreement is anticipated to provide cost savings and a more reliable internet banking platform. Internet banking expenses for 2007 were $118 thousand, which is an increase of $14 thousand as compared to 2006; all of this year-to-year increase was related to costs incurred as a result of one-time conversion costs. At the end of 2007, the Bank was in the process of renegotiating the software contract for its core loan and deposit system software, and its network communications contract. Both sets of contracts are due to expire in 2008 and management moved to start renewal negotiations with the expectation of negotiating pricing concessions and to take advantage of technology enhancements with regards to network communications. These contracts affect data processing and ATM expenses. The expense for 2007 totaled $477 thousand as compared to $362 thousand for 2006; an increase of $115 thousand. Over 52% of this expense is related to ATM-related costs that are primarily volume driven costs, based upon the numbers and types of ATM and check card transactions that are processed. Costs for 2007 also included the full-year effect of the higher VISA network pass-through fees.

Provision for Income Taxes

 

Income before income taxes includes both taxable income and tax-exempt income, including interest on municipal securities and bank-owned life insurance. The effective income tax rate, based on income before taxes is, therefore, lower than the statutory Federal income tax rate of 34%. Financial institutions in the Commonwealth of Virginia are not subject to a state income tax, rather, a franchise tax is assessed and paid. The cost of the franchise tax is recorded as part of the Other Expense category discussed above. The effective income tax rate increased to 28.7% in 2007 from 28.1% in 2006 and from 25.5% in 2005. Income taxes for 2007 increased to $1,367,000 from $1,317,000 in 2006 and $1,060,000 in 2005 as a result of higher pre-tax net earnings and a decline in tax-exempt investments and loans as a percentage of total assets.

Loans

 

The Bank uses the funds generated from deposits, short-term FHLB advances, combined with investment portfolio liquidity to support its lending activities and it competes aggressively for loans in its market areas. Loan originations for 2007 totaled $73.6 million or a 14% decrease over the $85.5 million originated in 2006. Despite the double-digit decrease in loan origination activity, total loans at December 31, 2007 totaled $211.3 million or an increase of $11.1 million from the $200.2 million at December 31, 2006. (The Bank does not make loans outside of the United States.)

 

Loans are made predominantly to residents and businesses located in the Company’s trade area. Approximately 80% of the loan portfolio on December 31, 2007 was composed of real estate secured loans.

Asset Quality

 

The Allowance for Loan Losses is maintained at a level that management believes is adequate after considering portfolio and economic conditions, delinquency trends, past loan loss experience, the volume of loans, as well as other factors deserving recognition. After considering these factors, the Allowance for Loan Losses was set at $1.950 million at year end 2007. This is an increase of $15 thousand from December 31, 2006 and $4 thousand lower than December 31, 2005. A settlement agreement reached between the Bank and the guarantors of a consumer loan charged off in 1988 was primary in the recovery of previously charged loan loss provision totaling $238 thousand. The Bank experienced a similar recovery of loan loss provision totaling $316 thousand for 2006, which was the result of a settlement agreement with guarantors of a commercial loan. On December 31, 2007, the Allowance was 0.92% of total loans down from 0.97% one year earlier. Despite the increase of $157 thousand in non-accrual and impaired loans at December 31, 2007 as compared to December 31, 2006, specific reserves established for impaired loans decreased during this period. The decrease in specific reserves is the result of several factors related to individual loans. Several credits with large reserve allocations improved due to one or more of the following factors: loan payoff, improved payment performance, or significant curtailment of the outstanding principal balance. As a result of these improvements in asset quality, the Allowance for Loan Losses at December 31, 2007 was 0.92% of total loans, a decrease of 5 basis points from 0.97% at December 31, 2006.

 

The following table shows the allocation of the allowance for loan losses at the dates indicated. The allocation of portions of the allowance to specific categories of loans is not intended to be indicative of future losses, and does not restrict the use of the allowance to absorb losses in any category of loans.

Loan portfolio risks are monitored by management. A credit review of outstanding loans and loan collateral is performed by management in order to identify potential losses. Non-accrual and impaired loans were $2,099,000 and $1,942,000 at December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively. It is the Company’s policy to put loans on a non-accrual basis once they are past due 90 days or more unless they are well secured and in the process of collection.

 

At year end 2007, management was monitoring loans considered to be impaired (under Statement 114) totaling $1,501,000, of which $581,000 are on a non-accrual status. They are followed closely, and management at present believes the allowance for loan losses is adequate to cover anticipated losses that may be attributable to these loans. Various forms of collateral are held as security on the loans.

Other Real Estate Owned (OREO) balances represent the lower of cost or appraised value less cost to sell of real estate acquired through foreclosure by the Bank. The Bank regularly evaluates the carrying value of such assets and adjusts the balances as required. The Bank actively markets such properties to reduce potential losses and expenses related to carrying these assets. As of December 31, 2007, the Bank did not have any OREO properties.

 

Loan Charge-offs and Recoveries Summary

 

In 2007, recoveries exceeded charge-offs by $253,000, compared to $297,000 in 2006, as illustrated in the table below. The following table further summarizes the Company’s loan loss experience for the preceding five years:

On December 10, 2007, the Bank entered into a settlement agreement with guarantors of a consumer loan that was charged off in November 1989. The agreement called for a cash settlement of $320,000. After recognizing this settlement as a recovery, management determined that the Allowance for Loan Losses was excessive based upon the normal calculations performed to determine the adequacy of the Allowance. The amount determined to be in excess was $238 thousand and it was reversed from the Allowance by crediting the Provision for Loan Losses.

Mortgage backed securities in the amount of $13,464,000 are included in the above table based on expected weighted average maturities.

 

At December 31, 2007 and 2006, investment securities with a book value of $18,435,000 and $11,675,000, respectively, were pledged to collateralize public deposits and for other purposes.

 

All investment in debt securities are classified as available for sale and are carried at fair value adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. By carrying the investment portfolio as available for sale, management has the opportunity to react to changing liquidity needs and market conditions.

Deposits

 

Total average deposits increased $5.5 million or 2.3% in 2007. During 2007, average noninterest demand deposit balances increased $232 thousand for an average of $36.4 million during 2007 as compared to an average balance of $36.2 million for 2006. Management places an emphasis on increasing lower cost deposit account balances as a means of controlling the impact of higher short-term rates on the interest margin. Average interest-bearing deposit accounts and savings accounts increased $0.5 million for an average balance of $70.3 million for 2007 as compared to an average balance of $69.8 million for 2006; or an increase of 0.7%. Average time deposits for 2007 were $135.2 million, or an average balance increase of $4.7 million as compared to the average balance for 2006 of $130.5 million.

Financial Instruments with Off Balance Sheet Risk

 

The Company is a party to credit related 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, standby letters of credit and commercial letters of credit. Such commitments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheets.

 

The Company’s exposure to credit loss is represented by the contractual amount of these commitments. The Company follows the same credit policies in making commitments as it does for

 

32


 

on-balance-sheet instruments. At December 31, 2007 and 2006, the following financial instruments were outstanding whose contract amounts represent credit risk:

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. The commitments for equity lines of credit may expire without being drawn upon. Therefore, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The amount of collateral obtained, if it is deemed necessary by the Company, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the customer.

 

Unfunded commitments under commercial lines-of-credit, revolving credit lines and overdraft protection agreements are commitments for possible future extensions of credit to existing customers. These lines-of-credit may be secured or unsecured with varied maturities based upon product type, collateral, and credit worthiness of the borrower.

 

Standby letters-of-credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Those letters-of-credit are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements. Essentially all letters of credit issued have expiration dates within one year. The credit risk involved in issuing letters-of-credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. The Bank generally holds collateral supporting those commitments if deemed necessary.

 

Liquidity

 

Liquidity assesses the Company’s ability to meet financial obligations consisting of lending commitments, deposit outflows, operational expenses and contingencies that arise during the normal course of business. Liquidity is also defined as the Company’s ability to meet the borrowing and deposit withdrawal requirements of the customers of the Company in addition to meeting current and planned expenditures. The Company’s liquidity is derived primarily from its deposit base and equity capital and is provided through the Company’s cash, balances in correspondent banks, federal funds sold, investments maturing or repaying within one year and securities available for sale. The Company’s growth has continued to be funded primarily through these sources.

 

As of December 31, 2007, approximately $86.3 million or 41% of the loan portfolio will mature or re-price within one year. Maturities and principal repayments from the investment securities portfolio that are expected within one year are approximately $19.4 million, or 40% of the investment portfolio. Expected liquidity of approximately $105.7 million from the loan and investment portfolios, within the next year, is scheduled to provide a steady flow of funds to meet deposit withdrawals or loan demand. Additionally, a cash reserve is maintained, usually in the form of overnight investments in federal funds. During 2007, the Company was a seller of Federal funds in daily average amounts of $2.1 million.

 

Other sources of liquidity available to the Company include its capacity to borrow additional funds when necessary. Federal funds lines of credit are maintained with four correspondent banks however the Company did not have any amount outstanding as of December 31, 2007. As of December 31, 2007, the Company has the following lines of credit available:

 

 

Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta

$32,890,000

Community Bankers Bank

11,400,000

SunTrust

8,000,000

Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond

3,259,000

Total Federal Funds Lines

$55,549,000

 

33


 

 

As a result of the Company’s management of liquid assets and the ability to generate liquidity through liability funding, management believes the Company maintains overall liquidity sufficient to satisfy its depositors’ requirements and meet its clients’ credit needs.

 

Capital Resources

 

The Company’s principal source of capital is generated through retained earnings. In 2007, $1,810,000, or 53%, of earnings were retained and added to the capital of the Company.

 

Capital growth has historically benefited from a conservative dividend policy. In 2007 the dividend payout represented 47% of net income. The Company’s current Dividend Policy limits annual dividend payouts to no more than 60% of the net earnings for the trailing four calendar quarters. The ratio of average equity to average assets was 12.63% in 2007, compared to 12.45% in 2006. Stockholders’ equity was $37,331,000 on December 31, 2007.

 

The Company’s Tier I Leverage ratio was 12.9%. The Tier I risk-based capital ratio for the Company was 19.0% on December 31, 2007 while the Tier II or total risk-based capital ratio was 19.9%. Both Tier I and total risk-based capital ratios at December 31, 2007 exceeded regulatory risk-based capital requirements by substantial margins and the Company continues to be well capitalized.

 

Cash dividends totaling $1,585,000 were declared in 2007 which represents a payout ratio of 47% compared to a payout ratio of 50% in 2006. It is anticipated that internally generated funds will cover any capital improvements in 2008. The Company believes its liquidity and capital resources are more than adequate to meet its cash requirements for the foreseeable future.

 

The Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase plan to begin on September 1, 2007. The plan is intended to provide additional liquidity in the trading of the Company’s stock and to provide the Company with opportunities to reduce the number of shares outstanding. (Additional information on the stock repurchase plan is discussed in Part II, Item 5, earlier in this report.)

Capital Expenditures

 

Capital expenditures were $419 thousand in 2007 compared to $1.5 million in 2006. The capital expenditures in 2007 were focused on planned building repairs and improvements such as handicap accessibility and a new roof for the Main Office facility, the planned renovation of two banking offices, the replacement of outdated security surveillance systems with digital systems, and the planned enhancement

 

34


 

of certain computer workstations. The capital expenditures in 2006 were primarily due to the acquisition and renovation of the Bank’s eleventh banking office in South Hill, Virginia, as well as, remodeling costs for the banking office located at 1575 South Main Street in Blackstone, Virginia and acquisition costs for improvements and expansion of the Bank’s information technology infrastructure.

 

Capital expenditures are projected to be approximately $653 thousand in 2008, which includes the installation of a remote ATM, continued handicap accessibility at the Main Office and in certain banking offices, the implementation of branch capture technology, and complete the installation of the digital security surveillance systems in the remaining banking offices.

 

Inflation

 

In financial institutions virtually all of the assets and liabilities of the Company are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates have a greater impact on a bank’s performance than the effects of general levels of inflation since interest rate movement is not necessarily affected by inflation.

 

ITEM 7A.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

Market risk is the potential risk to earnings and/or to the economic value of equity due to changes in interest rates and other market conditions as they relate to the financial industry. The Company’s market risk exposure is primarily its exposure to interest rate risk (IRR). The measuring, monitoring and management of IRR is the responsibility of the Asset Liability Management Committee (the ALCO). The Board of Directors of the Company has delegated responsibility for asset liability management to the ALCO whose main objectives are to manage IRR while optimizing earnings through net interest income and management of the balance sheet. The Company uses a simulation model on a quarterly basis to measure IRR. This model utilizes the Company’s financial data and various management assumptions and projections as they relate to growth, interest rates, noninterest income and noninterest expenses in order to forecast the interest sensitivity of the Company and its potential impact on net interest income, earnings and equity. The model projects a “most likely” forecast which is then “shocked” with various interest rate increases and decreases in order to project the short term effects on net interest income and net income. The model also projects the effects on the economic value of equity (EVE) of the Company using the same interest rate increases and decreases. The EVE sensitivity measure is a measure of the long-term risk of the bank.

 

As of December 31, 2007, the Company’s earnings sensitivity analysis indicates that the Company remains asset sensitive for the first quarter of 2008 and the balance sheet becomes liability sensitive for the remainder of 2008. The ALCO adopted an interest rate forecast that called for a gradually declining short-term interest rates starting between the first and second quarters of 2008. Therefore, being asset sensitive in a steady rate environment would not impact net interest income and the balance sheet becomes liability sensitive at a time when rates are anticipated to decline. Being liability sensitive in a declining rate environment will have a positive impact on net interest income as rates decline. The Company’s asset/liability model analysis, as of December 31, 2007, indicates that the Company within the next 12 months will be asset sensitive for the first quarter and then become liability sensitive for at least the remainder of 2008. The Company’s balance sheet becomes asset sensitive after 12 months and up to 5 years.

 

Since the earnings model uses numerous assumptions regarding the effect of changes in interest rates, on the timing and extent of re-pricing characteristics, future cash flows and customer behavior, the model cannot precisely estimate net interest income and the effect on net income from sudden changes in interest rates. Actual results will differ from simulated results due to the timing, magnitude and frequency of interest rate changes and changes in market conditions and management strategies, among other factors. The model simulation results presented below are based upon the instaneous increase or decrease (shock) of current interest rates. This method meets regulatory requirements. The Company’s management does recognize that rate shocks represent the most severe of interest rate change scenarios, and has viewed past modeling results using a “rate ramping” methodology that illustrates the effect of interest rate changes over a period of 12 months, rather than overnight. The model utilizes

 

35


 

current market interest rates to measure against the Company’s portfolio rates for earning assets, deposits and other interest sensitive liabilities in order to compute the economic value of equity.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Company.

 

Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records which accurately and fairly reflect, in reasonable detail, the transactions of the Company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit the preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are made in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

 

Any system of internal control, no matter how well designed, will have inherent limitations, such as the possibility of unintentional human error or intentional circumvention of overriding control. Therefore, any system of internal control can provide only a reasonable assurance as to the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting. Further, because of changes in conditions, internal control effectiveness may vary over time.

 

The Company’s management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007. This assessment was based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this assessment, management has concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2007.

 

Based on current requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Company’s system of internal control over financial reporting is not required to be audited by an independent registered public accounting firm until the year ending December 31, 2008.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders

Citizens Bancorp of Virginia, Inc. and Subsidiary

Blackstone, VA

 

We have audited the consolidated balance sheets of Citizens Bancorp of Virginia, Inc. and Subsidiary as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in stockholder’s equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2007. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the 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 evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Citizens Bancorp of Virginia, Inc. and Subsidiary as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2007 in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

 

We were not engaged to examine management's assertion about the effectiveness of Citizens Bancorp of Virginia and Subsidiary's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007 included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting and, accordingly, we do not express an opinion thereon.

CITIZENS BANCORP OF VIRGINIA, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

 

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

 

 

 

Note 1.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Citizens Bancorp of Virginia, Inc. (the “Company”) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Citizens Bank and Trust Company (the “Bank”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Business

 

The Company conducts the general business of a commercial bank. The Company is chartered under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia and is a member of the Federal Reserve System. The Company’s primary trade areas are in the Virginia counties of Nottoway, Amelia, Prince Edward, Chesterfield, Colonial Heights and Mecklenburg. The Company offers traditional lending and deposit products to businesses and individuals.

 

Use of Estimates

 

In preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the balance sheet and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses.

 

The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies used in the preparation of the financial statements.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

For purposes of the statements of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash and balances due from banks, interest-bearing deposits in banks and federal funds sold, all of which mature within ninety days.

 

Securities

 

Debt securities that management has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as “held to maturity” and recorded at amortized cost. Securities not classified as held to maturity, including equity securities with readily determinable fair values, are classified as “available for sale” and recorded at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported in other comprehensive income.

 

Purchase premiums and discounts are recognized in interest income using the interest method over the terms of the securities. Declines in the fair value of held to maturity and available for sale securities below their cost that are deemed to be other than temporary are reflected in earnings as realized losses. In estimating other than temporary impairment losses, management considers (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and (3) the intent and ability of the Company to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value. Gains and losses on the sale of securities are recorded on the trade date and are determined using the specific identification method.

CITIZENS BANCORP OF VIRGINIA, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

 

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

 

Restricted Securities

 

The Company is required to maintain an investment in the capital stock of certain correspondent banks. No ready market exists for this stock, and it has no quoted market value. The Company’s investment in these stocks is recorded at cost.

 

Loans Held for Sale

 

Loans originated and intended for sale in the secondary market are carried at the lower of aggregate cost or fair value. Mortgage loans held for sale are sold with the mortgage servicing rights released by the Company.

 

The Company enters into commitments to originate certain mortgage loans whereby the interest rate on the loans is determined prior to funding (rate lock commitments). Rate lock commitments on mortgage loans that are intended to be sold are considered to be derivatives. The period of time between issuance of a loan commitment and closing and the sale of the loan generally ranges from thirty to ninety days. The Company protects itself from changes in interest rates through the use of best efforts forward delivery commitments, whereby the Company commits to sell a loan at the time the borrower commits to an interest rate with the intent that the buyer has assumed interest rate risk on the loan. As a result, the Company is not exposed to losses nor will it realize significant gains related to its rate lock commitments due to changes in interest rates. The correlation between the rate lock commitments and the best efforts contracts is very high due to their similarity. Because of this high correlation, no gain or loss occurs on the rate lock commitments.

 

Loans

 

The Company grants mortgage, commercial and consumer loans to customers. A substantial portion of the loan portfolio is represented by mortgage loans in the Virginia counties of Nottoway, Amelia, Prince Edward, Chesterfield, the City of Colonial Heights and Mecklenburg county. The ability of the Company’s debtors to honor their contracts is dependent upon the real estate and general economic conditions in this area.

 

Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or pay-off generally are reported at their outstanding unpaid principal balances adjusted for charge-offs, the allowance for loan losses, and any deferred fees or costs on originated loans. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance. Loan origination fees, net of certain direct origination costs, are deferred and recognized as an adjustment of the related loan yield using the interest method.

 

The accrual of interest on mortgage and commercial loans is discontinued at the time the loan is 90 days delinquent unless the credit is well-secured and in process of collection. Other personal loans are typically charged off no later than 180 days past due. In all cases, loans are placed on nonaccrual or charged off at an earlier date if collection of principal or interest is considered doubtful.

 

All interest accrued but not collected for loans that are placed in a nonaccrual or charged off status are reversed against interest income in the period when the loan’s status changes to nonaccrual or the loan is charged off. The interest on these loans is accounted for on the cash-basis or cost-recovery method, until qualifying for return to accrual. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.

Allowance for Loan Losses

 

The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses charged to expense. Loans are charged against the allowance for loan losses when management believes that collectibility of the principal is unlikely. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance.

 

The allowance is an amount that management believes will be adequate to absorb estimated losses relating to specifically identified loans, as well as probable credit losses inherent in the balance of the loan portfolio, based on an evaluation of the collectibility of existing loans and prior loss experience. This evaluation also takes into consideration such factors as changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, overall portfolio quality, review of specific problem loans, and current economic conditions that may affect the borrower’s ability to pay. This evaluation does not include the effects of expected losses on specific loans or groups of loans that are related to future events or expected changes in economic conditions. While management uses the best information available to make its evaluation, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary if there are significant changes in economic conditions. In addition, regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Company’s allowance for loan losses, and may require the Company to make additions to the allowance based on their judgment about information available to them at the time of their examinations.

 

The allowance consists of specific, general and unallocated components. The specific component relates to loans that are classified as either doubtful, substandard or special mention. For such loans that are also classified as impaired, an allowance is established when the discounted cash flows (or collateral value or observable market price) of the impaired loan is lower than the carrying value of that loan. The general component covers non-classified loans and is based on historical loss experience adjusted for qualitative factors. An unallocated component is maintained to cover uncertainties that could affect management’s estimate of probable losses. The unallocated component of the allowance reflects the margin of imprecision inherent in the underlying assumptions used in the methodologies for estimating specific and general losses in the portfolio.

 

A loan is impaired when it is probable, based on current information and events, that the Company will be unable to collect all contractual principal and interest payments due in accordance with the terms of the loan agreement. Impaired loans are measured on an individual basis for commercial and construction loans based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate or, as a practical expedient, at the loan’s observable market price or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. The amount of impairment, if any, and any subsequent changes are included in the allowance for loan losses.

 

Large groups of smaller balance homogenous loans are collectively evaluated for impairment. Accordingly, the Company does not separately identify individual consumer and residential loans for impairment disclosures.

 

Premises and Equipment

 

Land is carried at cost. Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense is computed by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Estimated useful lives of the assets range from 3 to 39 years. Major improvements are capitalized while maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.

Foreclosed Assets

 

Assets acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are held for sale and are initially recorded at the lower of carrying value or fair value less cost to sell at the date of foreclosure, thereby establishing a new cost basis. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed by management and the assets are carried at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. Revenue and expenses from operations and changes in the valuation allowance are included in net expenses from foreclosed assets. The Company had no foreclosed assets at December 31, 2007 and $85,000 in foreclosed assets at December 31, 2006.

 

Income Taxes

 

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined using the balance sheet method. Under this method, the net deferred tax asset or liability is determined based on the tax effects of the temporary differences between the book and tax bases of the various balance sheet assets and liabilities and gives current recognition to changes in tax rates and laws.

 

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

 

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

 

Defined Benefit Pension Plan

 

The Company provides a noncontributory pension plan covering substantially all of the Company’s employees who are eligible as to age and length of service. The Company funds pension costs in accordance with the funding provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act.

 

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income

 

Accounting principles generally require that recognized revenue, expenses, gains and losses be included in net income. However certain changes in assets and liabilities, such as unrealized gains and losses on available for sale securities and pension liability adjustments are reported as a separate component in the equity section of the balance sheet, as components of accumulated other comprehensive income. At December 31, 2006, the Company implemented FASB No. 158, requiring the recognition of the under-funded status of a company’s defined benefit pension plan as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income, net of income taxes.

 

Earnings Per Share

 

Earnings per share are calculated based on the weighted-average number of common shares and common stock equivalents outstanding. The Company has no dilutive or potentially dilutive common stock

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (SFAS 157). SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 does not require any new fair value measurements, but rather, provides enhanced guidance to other pronouncements that require or permit assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value. This Statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those years. The FASB has approved a one-year deferral for the implementation of the Statement for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a nonrecurring basis. The Company does not expect the implementation of SFAS 157 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 158, “Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans – an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132(R)” (SFAS 158). This Statement requires that employers measure plan assets and obligations as of the balance sheet date. This requirement is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2008. The other provisions of SFAS 158 were implemented by the Company as of December 31, 2006. The Company does not expect the implementation of the measurement date provisions of SFAS 158 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities” (SFAS 159). This Statement permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The objective of this Statement is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. The fair value option established by this Statement permits all entities to choose to measure eligible items at fair value at specified election dates. A business entity shall report unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. The fair value option may be applied instrument by instrument and is irrevocable. SFAS 159 is effective as of the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007, with early adoption available in certain circumstances. The Company does not expect the implementation of SFAS 159 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141(R), “Business Combinations” (SFAS 141(R)). The Standard will significantly change the financial accounting and reporting of business combination transactions. SFAS 141(R) establishes principles for how an acquirer recognizes and measures the identifiable assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree; recognizes and measures the goodwill acquired in the business combination or a gain from a bargain purchase; and determines what information to disclose to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. SFAS 141(R) is effective for acquisition dates on or after

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

 

the beginning of an entity’s first year that begins after December 15, 2008. The Company does not expect the implementation of SFAS 141(R) to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements an Amendment of ARB No. 51” (SFAS 160). The Standard will significantly change the financial accounting and reporting of noncontrolling (or minority) interests in consolidated financial statements. SFAS 160 is effective as of the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after December 15, 2008, with early adoption prohibited. The Company does not expect the implementation of SFAS 160 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In September 2006, the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) issued EITF 06-4, “Accounting for Deferred Compensation and Postretirement Benefit Aspects of Endorsement Split-Dollar Life Insurance Arrangements.” This consensus concludes that for a split-dollar life insurance arrangement within the scope of this Issue, an employer should recognize a liability for future benefits in accordance with SFAS 106 (if, in substance, a postretirement benefit plan exists) or APB Opinion No. 12 (if the arrangement is, in substance, an individual deferred compensation contract) based on the substantive agreement with the employee. The consensus is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007, with early application permitted. The Company does not expect the implementation of EITF 06-4 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In November 2006, the EITF issued “Accounting for Collateral Assignment Split-Dollar Life Insurance Arrangements” (EITF 06-10). In this Issue, a consensus was reached that an employer should recognize a liability for the postretirement benefit related to a collateral assignment split-dollar life insurance arrangement in accordance with either SFAS 106 or APB Opinion No. 12, as appropriate, if the employer has agreed to maintain a life insurance policy during the employee's retirement or provide the employee with a death benefit based on the substantive agreement with the employee. A consensus also was reached that an employer should recognize and measure an asset based on the nature and substance of the collateral assignment split-dollar life insurance arrangement. The consensuses are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early application permitted. The Company is evaluating the effect that EITF 06-10 will have on its consolidated financial statements when implemented.

 

In February 2007, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS 158-1, “Conforming Amendments to the Illustrations in FASB Statements No. 87, No. 88 and No. 106 and to the Related Staff Implementation Guides.” This FSP provides conforming amendments to the illustrations in SFAS 87, 88, and 106 and to related staff implementation guides as a result of the issuance of SFAS 158. The conforming amendments made by this FSP are effective as of the effective dates of SFAS 158. The unaffected guidance that this FSP codifies into SFAS 87, 88, and 106 does not contain new requirements and therefore does not require a separate effective date or transition method. The Company does not expect the implementation of FSP No. FAS 158-1 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In November 2007, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 109, “Written Loan Commitments Recorded at Fair Value Through Earnings” (SAB 109). SAB 109 expresses the current view of the staff that the expected net future cash flows related to the associated servicing of the loan should be included in the measurement of all written loan commitments that are accounted for at fair value through earnings. SEC registrants are expected to apply the views in Question 1 of SAB 109 on a prospective basis to derivative loan commitments issued or modified in fiscal quarters beginning after December 15, 2007. The Company does not expect the implementation of SAB 109 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

The unrealized losses in the investment portfolio as of December 31, 2007 are considered temporary and are a result of general market fluctuations that occur daily. The unrealized losses are from 48 securities that are all of investment grade, backed by insurance, U.S. government agency guarantees, or the full faith and credit of local municipalities throughout the United States. Market prices change daily and are affected by conditions beyond the control of the Company. Investment decisions are made by the management group of the Company and reflect the overall liquidity and strategic asset/liability objectives of the Company. Management analyzes the securities portfolio frequently and manages the portfolio to provide an overall positive impact to the Company’s income statement and balance sheet. As management has the ability and intent to hold debt securities for the foreseeable future, no declines are deemed to be other than temporary.

 

Securities having carrying values of $18,434,955 and $11,674,871 at December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, were pledged to secure public deposits and for other purposes required by law.

Employee Benefit Plans

 

The Company offers a number of benefit plans to its employees. Among them are a 401(k) plan and a defined benefit plan, which are described below:

 

401(k) Plan

 

The Company offers a 401(k) plan for the benefit of all employees who have attained the age of 18 and completed three months of continuous service. The plan allows participating employees to contribute amounts up to the limits set by the Internal Revenue Service and permits the Company to make discretionary contributions to the plan in such amounts as the Board of Directors may determine to be appropriate. The Company presently makes matching contributions equal to 50% of the first six percent of an employee’s compensation contributed to the plan. Contributions made to the plan by the Company for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006, and 2005, were $70,028, $66,875, and $60,810, respectively.

 

Defined Benefit Pension Plan

 

The Company has a defined benefit pension plan covering all employees who meet eligibility requirements. To be eligible, an employee must be 20.5 years of age and have completed six months of eligibility service. The plan provides benefits based on the participant’s years of service and five year average final compensation. At a minimum, our funding policy is to make annual contributions as permitted or required by regulations. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2007, the Company made cash contributions totaling $224,155. The bank made a one-time additional cash contribution of $250,000 to the plan in 2006. Contributions for the twelve months ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 were $489,819 and $259,714, respectively.

Long-Term Rate of Return

 

The plan sponsor selects the expected long-term rate-of-return-on-assets assumption in consultation with its investment advisors and actuary. This rate is intended to reflect the average rate of earnings expected to be earned on the funds invested or to be invested to provide plan benefits. Historical performance is reviewed, especially with respect to real rates of return (net of inflation), for the major asset classes held or anticipated to be held by the trust and for the trust itself. Undue weight is not

given to recent experience that may not continue over the measurement period with higher significance placed on current forecasts of future long-term economic conditions.

 

Because assets are held in a qualified trust, anticipated returns are not reduced for taxes. Further, solely for this purpose, the plan is assumed to continue in force and not terminate during the period during which assets are invested. However, consideration is given to the potential impact of current and future investment policy, cash flow into and out of the trust, and expenses (both investment and non-investment) are typically paid from plan assets (to the extent such expenses are not explicitly estimated within periodic cost).

 

Asset Allocation

 

The pension plan’s weighted-average asset allocations at September 30, 2007 and 2006, by asset category are as follows:

Total

100%

 

 

The trust fund is sufficiently diversified to maintain a reasonable level of risk without imprudently sacrificing return with a targeted asset allocation of 50% fixed income and 50% equities. The investment manager selects investment fund managers with demonstrated experience and expertise and funds with demonstrated historical performance for the implementation of the plan’s investment strategy. The investment manager will consider both actively and passively managed investment strategies and will allocate funds across the asset classes to develop an efficient investment structure.

 

It is the responsibility of the trustee to administer the investments of the trust within reasonable costs, being careful to avoid sacrificing quality. These costs include, but are not limited to, management and custodial fees, consulting fees, transaction costs and other administrative costs chargeable to the trust.

 

The Company expects to contribute $250,000 to its pension plan in 2008.

Off-Balance Sheet Activities

 

The Company is a party to credit related 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, standby letters of credit and commercial letters of credit. Such commitments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheets.

 

The Company’s exposure to credit loss is represented by the contractual amount of these commitments. The Company follows the same credit policies in making commitments as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments.

 

At December 31, 2007 and 2006, the following financial instruments were outstanding whose contract amounts represent credit risk:

Commitments to extend credit

$ 30,917

 

$ 39,240

Standby letters of credit

1,539

 

977

 

 

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. The commitments for equity lines of credit may expire without being drawn upon. Therefore, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The amount of collateral obtained, if it is deemed necessary by the Company, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the customer.

 

Unfunded commitments under commercial lines of credit, revolving credit lines and overdraft protection agreements are commitments for possible future extensions of credit to existing customers. These lines of credit are uncollateralized and usually do not contain a specified maturity date and may not be drawn upon to the total extent to which the Company is committed.

 

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Those letters of credit are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements. Essentially all letters of credit issued have expiration dates within one year. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. The Bank generally holds collateral supporting those commitments if deemed necessary.

 

 

Note 13.

Restrictions on Cash and Due From Banks

 

The Federal Reserve Bank requires banks to maintain cash reserves against certain categories of deposit liabilities. At December 31, 2007, the aggregate amount of daily average required reserves was approximately $193,000. The Bank is also required to maintain certain required reserve balances with a correspondent bank.

Note 14.

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

The Company has a diversified loan portfolio consisting of commercial, real estate and consumer (installment) loans. Substantially all of the Company’s customers are residents or operate business ventures in its market area consisting of Nottoway, Amelia, Prince Edward, Chesterfield and adjacent counties. Therefore, a substantial portion of its debtors’ ability to honor their contracts and the Company’s ability to realize the value of any underlying collateral, if needed, is influenced by the economic conditions in this market area.

 

The Company maintains a portion of its cash balances with several financial institutions located in its market area. Accounts at each institution are secured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $100,000. Uninsured balances were approximately $6,392,910 at December 31, 2007.

 

Note 15.

Restriction on Dividends

 

The Bank is subject to certain restrictions on the amount of dividends it may pay without prior regulatory approval. The Bank normally restricts dividends to a lesser amount. At December 31, 2007, retained earnings of approximately $5,664,489 were available for the payment of dividends without prior regulatory approval.

 

 

Note 16.

Minimum Regulatory Capital Requirements

 

The Company (on a consolidated basis) and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary, actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s and the Bank’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. Prompt corrective action provisions are not applicable to bank holding companies.

 

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below) of total and Tier 1 capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined), and of Tier 1 capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined). Management believes, that as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, the Company and the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.

 

As of December 31, 2007, the most recent notification from the Federal Reserve Bank categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized, an institution must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based, and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the table. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the Bank’s category.

Note 17.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Interest Rate Risk

 

The fair value of a financial instrument is the current amount that would be exchanged between willing parties, other than in a forced liquidation. Fair value is best determined based upon quoted market prices. However, in many instances, there are no quoted market prices for the Company’s various financial instruments. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques. Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. Accordingly, the fair value estimates may not be realized in an immediate settlement of the instrument. SFAS No. 107 excludes certain financial instruments and all nonfinancial instruments from its disclosure requirements. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented may not necessarily represent the underlying fair value of the Company.

 

The Company in estimating fair value disclosures for financial instruments used the following methods and assumptions:

 

Cash and cash equivalents: The carrying amounts of cash and short-term instruments approximate fair values.

 

Securities: Fair values for investment securities are based on quoted market prices, where available. If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on quoted market prices of comparable instruments.

 

Restricted securities: The carrying value of restricted stock approximates fair value based on the redemption provisions of the respective entity.

 

Loans: For variable-rate loans that reprice frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying values. Fair values for certain mortgage loans (e.g., one-to-four family residential) and other consumer loans are based on quoted market prices of similar loans sold in conjunction with securitization transactions, adjusted for differences in loan characteristics. Fair values for other loans (e.g., commercial real estate and investment property mortgage loans, commercial and industrial loans) are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality.

 

Deposits: The fair values disclosed for demand deposits (e.g., interest and non-interest checking, passbook savings, and certain types of money market accounts) are, by definition, equal to the amounts payable on demand at the reporting date (i.e., their carrying amounts). The carrying amounts of variable-rate, fixed-term money market accounts and certificates of deposit approximate their fair values at the reporting date. Fair values for fixed-rate certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on certificates to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on time deposits.

 

Short term borrowings: The carrying amounts of federal funds purchased and other short term borrowings maturing within 90 days approximate their fair values.

 

Accrued interest: The carrying amounts of accrued interest approximate fair value.

 

Off-balance-sheet instruments: Fair values for off-balance-sheet, credit-related financial instruments are based on fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the counterparties’ credit standing. At December 31, 2007 and 2006, the fair value of loan commitments and standby letters of credit was deemed to be immaterial.

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

 

 

Note 18.

Condensed Parent Company Financial Statements

 

The following parent company accounting policies should be read in conjunction with the related condensed balance sheets, statements of income, and statements of cash flows.

 

The investment in subsidiary is accounted for using the equity method of accounting. The parent company and its subsidiary file a consolidated federal income tax return. The subsidiary’s individual tax provision and liability are stated as if it filed a separate return and any benefits or detriments of filing the consolidated tax return are absorbed by the parent company.

 

The parent company’s principal asset is its investment in its wholly-owned subsidiary. Dividends from the subsidiary are the primary source of funds for the parent company. The payment of dividends by the subsidiary is restricted by various statutory limitations. Banking regulations also prohibit extensions of credit by the Bank to the parent company unless appropriately secured by assets.
