LCNB Corp. 2008 Annual Report

CEO’s and President's Letter to Shareholders (page 1 and 2 of Annual Report):

The theme of this year’s annual report is “Strong – Local – Secure”. Through the years these principles have been the cornerstone of your Bank. And, during these turbulent times, these principles have more meaning than ever. Sometimes, amid turmoil, opportunities become available and LCNB has fared better than many of our fellow financial institutions. Our conservative philosophy concerning traditional banking has served us well. We are in a position to not only survive but to prosper in these difficult times.

We have the capital, liquidity, earnings asset quality, and growth to out-perform our industry in both the short and long run.

Since the bank was established in 1877, this country has experienced many good and bad economic cycles and LCNB has been a trusted source of financial strength for the communities we serve. The year 2008 was no exception. LCNB has always felt that part of its mission is to protect the money its depositors entrust to it. That means making responsible lending and investment decisions. LCNB’s lending area is in the communities that it has offices and where its employees live. We know our customers and we know the local economies.

We cannot control our stock price in these emotional times or anytime, but we can control our performance. In the long run, we believe good performance will enhance shareholder value. With that thought in mind, we are pleased to present to you our performance results for 2008.

The year 2008 was a growth year for LCNB. Total assets grew by 7.56% from $604 million to $650 million. Contributing to that growth was a 7.78% increase in deposits from $535.9 million to $577.6 million. LCNB’s financial strength contributed to that deposit growth with the depositors’ flight to quality. Growth in the loan portfolio was more difficult. Consumer confidence declined and the desire to borrow declined as well. In spite of this, the loan portfolio grew 1.56% in 2008, and commercial loans grew by $16.5 million or 8.39%.

Net income for 2008 was $6.6 million representing a 1.03% return on average assets and an 11.35% return on average shareholders’ equity. Earnings per share were $.99 in 2008 compared to $.94 in 2007. Total shareholders’ equity on December 31, 2008 was $58.1 million. Our capital remains strong and it is our position to maintain the FDIC “well capitalized” designation.

The total dividend paid in 2008 was $.64 per share compared to $.62 in 2007. Under current tax laws, we feel that maintaining a strong dividend is in the best interest of our shareholders.

One of the greatest assets of LCNB is the people who work here. LCNB has a strong and experienced management team guiding excellent employees. Throughout 2008, the LCNB employees fielded countless questions that ranged from “What is the financial strength of the bank?”, “How does FDIC insurance work for me?”, “Should I take my money out of the bank?” to “What is going to happen next?” Declining confidence in the financial markets and daily negative headlines led customers to the bank to ask many questions. The LCNB employees spoke with confidence to our customers and reassured them that LCNB was still safe, sound and secure.

During 2008, we had to make one of the most difficult decisions of our collective careers. That decision was to accept the U.S. Treasury’s Capital Purchase Program offer of 13.4 million dollars in exchange for preferred shares of stock and a warrant to purchase common shares. The risks on both sides of that decision were many, including reputation risk. At the point of decision, we chose to participate and take the additional capital. We received that capital January 9, 2009, so the results of that transaction are not reflected in our 2008 numbers. We do believe that this subsequent event deserves discussion in this letter due to the magnitude of that decision. The bottom line is we believe taking the capital injection is in the best interest of our shareholders. Our risk-based capital ratio increased almost 3% to give us enhanced capital strength during a time when capital is king and other capital sources are not available or are more expensive.

The four primary benefits of accepting the capital are:

As a way to increase our lending and help the communities and customers we serve meet today’s challenges.

As an insurance policy against a total meltdown of our economy.

As a source of strength when opportunities are presented to us.

As a recognition of LCNB’s financial strength, because these funds were granted only to financially secure banks.

During 2008, we added a second Montgomery County branch office with the opening of our new Centerville office. This brings us to 25 offices serving six counties in Southwestern Ohio.

We also made the decision to relocate our South Lebanon office. South Lebanon was our first branch office which opened in 1962. This new location will better serve our existing customers and will also be attractive to a wider area and larger customer base.

2008 was a very good year in terms of improving our operational efficiencies. The primary example was the full implementation of our Check 21 project, improving the time it takes to receive our money in the check clearing process. We have always given our customers next-day availability on their deposits. The traditional paper collection process did not allow us that luxury. It would historically take us several days to receive our funds. With Check 21, we collect electronically with check images, not the paper. This greatly improves the time it takes to collect our funds. We also employed this image technology to allow our customers to deposit check images instead of paper. This new product, called R.E.D., has been well received, especially by customers not conveniently located near one of our 25 offices. This image technology also saved significant dollars in the cost of couriers, courier vehicles, and fuel cost.

Using the latest technology continues to be one of our strengths. This allows us to provide several delivery channel options to our customers so they may bank how they want and when they want, 24/7.

Your Board of Directors, officers, and employees understand that financial market concerns are still present and that the downturn in our economy is severe and unlikely to improve in the near term. Yet, we enter 2009 with high expectations for continued growth and prosperity. The challenges are many but so are the opportunities. We are positioned with financial strength, a great market area, the right products, delivery channels, technology, and most important of all, the people to move successfully into the future.

Additional statistical data and information on our financial performance for 2008 are available in the LCNB Corp. Annual Report on Form 10-K. This report is filed annually with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We have enclosed the Form 10-K with the initial mailing of this report to shareholders and it is available upon request or from the shareholders information section of our website, www.LCNB.com.

The Annual Meeting for LCNB Corp. will be Tuesday, April 28, 2009, at 10:00am at our Main office located at 2 North Broadway in Lebanon, Ohio. Proxy material is included with this initial mailing. Please review, sign and return the proxy in the envelope provided. We would be pleased to have you attend our annual meeting in person. Thank you for your continued support.
