Part III

PART I

Item 1. Business

Community Trust Bancorp, Inc. (the "Corporation") is a bank holding company registered with the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System pursuant to Section 5(a) of the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended. The Corporation was incorporated August 12, 1980, under the laws of the Commonwealth of Kentucky for the purpose of becoming a bank holding company. At December 31, 2003, the Corporation owned all the capital stock of one commercial bank and one trust company, serving small and mid-sized communities in eastern, northeast, central, and south central Kentucky and southern West Virginia. The commercial bank is Community Trust Bank, Inc., Pikeville, Kentucky (the "Bank"). The trust company, Community Trust and Investment Company, Lexington, Kentucky (the "Trust Company"), has offices in Lexington, Pikeville, Ashland, Middlesboro, and Versailles, Kentucky. The Trust Company commenced business operations on January 1, 1994. At December 31, 2003, the Corporation had total consolidated assets of $2.5 billion and total consolidated deposits of $2.1 billion, making it the largest bank holding company headquartered in the Commonwealth of Kentucky.

On January 26, 2001, the Bank acquired the deposits, loans, and fixed assets of The Bank of Mt.Vernon, Inc. The offices acquired from The Bank of Mt. Vernon, Inc. are located in Mt. Vernon, Somerset, Richmond, and Berea, Kentucky. The offices acquired had deposits totaling $109.3 million and loans totaling $79 million. The purchase price paid by the Bank for the offices was a 9.5% premium on the non-brokered deposits as of the closing date plus approximately $1.6 million for fixed assets, $12.6 million for investment securities, and $1.0 million for the cash held at the acquired branches of The Bank of Mt. Vernon, Inc.

During the third quarter 2001, the Corporation acquired 75.28% of the outstanding shares of Citizens National Bank and Trust of Hazard, Kentucky ("Citizens"), independently valued at that time at $15.1 million, in lieu of a debt owed to the Corporation by a Citizens’ shareholder. On January 3, 2002, the Corporation acquired the remaining 24.72% of Citizens for $4.9 million. Citizens had total assets of $138.5 million and equity capital of $19.4 million as of December 31, 2001. On March 15, 2002, Citizens was merged into the Bank.

Effective January 1, 2003, the Bank and the Trust Company converted their charters to state charters from national associations. The Bank remained a member of the Federal Reserve System following conversion. Following its conversion, the Trust Company changed its name from Trust Company of Kentucky, National Association to Community Trust and Investment Company in order to identify more closely the Trust Company with the Bank. While the conversions resulted in some reduction in expenses, they did not result in any changes in the management or operations of the Bank or the Trust Company.

Through its subsidiaries, the Corporation engages in a wide range of commercial and personal banking and trust activities, which include accepting time and demand deposits; making secured and unsecured loans to corporations, individuals and others; providing cash management services to corporate and individual customers; issuing letters of credit; renting safe deposit boxes; and providing funds transfer services. The lending activities of the Bank include making commercial, construction, mortgage, and personal loans. Also available are lease-financing, lines of credit, revolving lines of credit, term loans, and other specialized loans including asset-based financing. The corporate subsidiaries act as trustees of personal trusts, as executors of estates, as trustees for employee benefit trusts, as registrars, transfer agents, and paying agents for bond and stock issues, as depositories for securities, and as providers of full service brokerage operations.

COMPETITION

The Corporation’s subsidiaries face substantial competition for deposit, credit, and trust relationships, as well as other sources of funding in the communities they serve. Competing providers include state banks, national banks, thrifts, trust companies, insurance companies, mortgage banking operations, credit unions, finance companies, brokerage companies, and other financial and non-financial companies which may offer products functionally equivalent to those offered by the Corporation’s subsidiaries. Many of these providers offer services within and outside the market areas served by the Corporation’s subsidiaries. The Corporation’s subsidiaries strive to offer competitively priced products along with quality customer service to build customer relationships in the communities they serve.

Since July 1989, banking legislation in Kentucky places no limits on the number of banks or bank holding companies that a bank holding company may acquire. Interstate acquisitions are allowed where reciprocity exists between the laws of Kentucky and the home state of the bank or bank holding company to be acquired. Bank holding companies continue to be limited to control of less than 15% of deposits held by banks in the states where they do business (exclusive of inter-bank and foreign deposits).

The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 (the "Gramm Act") has expanded the permissible activities of a bank holding company. The Gramm Act allows qualifying bank holding companies to elect to be treated as financial holding companies. A financial holding company may engage in activities that are financial in nature or are incidental or complementary to financial activities. The Gramm Act also eliminated restrictions imposed by the Glass-Steagall Financial Services Law, adopted in the 1930s, which prevented banking, insurance, and securities firms from fully entering each other’s business. This legislation has resulted in further consolidation in the financial services industry. In addition, removal of these restrictions has increased the number of entities providing banking services and thereby created additional competition.

No material portion of the business of the Corporation is seasonal. The business of the Corporation is not dependent upon any one customer or a few customers, and the loss of any one or a few customers would not have a material adverse effect on the Corporation. See note 16 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding concentrations of credit.

The Corporation engages in no operations in foreign countries.

EMPLOYEES

As of December 31, 2003, the Corporation and its subsidiaries had 901 full-time equivalent employees. Employees are provided with a variety of employee benefits. A retirement plan, an employee stock ownership plan, group life insurance, major medical insurance, a cafeteria plan, and annual management and employee incentive compensation plans are available to eligible personnel.

SUPERVISION AND REGULATION

The Corporation, as a registered bank holding company, is restricted to those activities permissible under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended, and is subject to actions of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System thereunder. It is required to file an annual report with the Federal Reserve Board and is subject to an annual examination by the Board.

The Bank is a state-chartered bank subject to state and federal banking laws and regulations and to periodic examination by the Kentucky Department of Financial Institutions and to the restrictions, including dividend restrictions, thereunder. The Bank is also a member of the Federal Reserve System and is subject to certain restrictions imposed by and to examination and supervision under the Federal Reserve Act. The Trust Company is also regulated by the Kentucky Department of Financial Institutions and the Federal Reserve.

Deposits of the Bank are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, which subjects banks to regulation and examination under the provisions of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act.

The operations of the Corporation and its subsidiaries also are affected by other banking legislation and policies and practices of various regulatory authorities. Such legislation and policies include statutory maximum rates on some loans, reserve requirements, domestic monetary and fiscal policy, and limitations on the kinds of services that may be offered.

The Corporation’s annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K, and all amendments to those reports are available free of charge on the Corporation’s website at www.ctbi.com as soon as reasonably practicable after such materials are electronically filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission.

In 2003, gross interest income that would have been recorded on nonaccrual loans had the loans been current in accordance with their original terms amounted to $1.0 million. Interest income actually received and included in net income for the period was $0.1 million, leaving $0.9 million of interest income not recognized during the period.

Discussion of the Nonaccrual Policy

The accrual of interest income on loans is discontinued when the collection of interest and principal in full is not expected. When interest accruals are discontinued, interest income accrued in the current period is reversed and interest income accrued in prior periods is charged through the allowance for loan losses. Any loans past due 90 days or more must be well secured and in the process of collection to continue accruing interest.

Potential Problem Loans

Interest accrual is discontinued when management believes, after considering economic and business conditions, collateral value, and collection efforts, that the borrower’s financial condition is such that collection of interest is doubtful. Any loan greater than 90 days past due must be well secured and in the process of collection to continue accruing interest. Management, therefore, believes to the best of their knowledge that no additional potential problem loans exist that would result in disclosure pursuant to Item III.C.2.

Foreign Outstandings

None

Loan Concentrations

The Corporation had no concentration of loans exceeding 10% of total loans at December 31, 2003. See note 16 to the consolidated financial statements for further information.

Dividends

The annual dividend was increased from $0.71 per share to $0.82 per share during 2003. A 10% stock dividend distributed on December 15, 2003 resulted in the restatement of the 2003 cash dividend of $0.88 per share to $0.82 per share, the 2002 cash dividend of $0.78 per share to $0.71 per share, and the 2001 cash dividend of $0.74 per share to $0.67 per share. The Corporation did not adjust its fourth quarter 2003 cash dividend with the stock dividend of December 15, 2003 electing to retain the payment at $0.23 per share. The Corporation has adopted a conservative policy of cash dividends, by maintaining a cash dividend ratio of less than 45%, with periodic stock dividends. Dividends are typically paid on a quarterly basis. Future dividends are subject to the discretion of the Corporation’s Board of Directors, cash needs, general business conditions, dividends from the subsidiaries, and applicable governmental regulations and policies. For information concerning restrictions on dividends from the subsidiary bank to the Corporation, see note 18 to the consolidated financial statements included herein for the year ended December 31, 2003.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Overview

Community Trust Bancorp, Inc. reported record earnings of $28.9 million for 2003 compared to $27.6 million for 2002 and $22.3 million for 2001. Basic earnings per share for 2003 were $2.14 compared to $2.01 per share for 2002 and $1.60 per share for 2001. Basic earnings per share for the year 2003 reflects the Corporation’s fifth consecutive year of increased earnings per share. All per share data has been restated to reflect the 10% stock dividend distributed on December 15, 2003.

The increase in earnings is reflected in the Corporation's return on average assets for 2003. Return on average assets for 2003 was 1.16% compared to 1.12% and 0.91% in 2002 and 2001, respectively. The growth in average shareholders’ equity of $12.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2003 resulted in a slightly lower average return on equity for 2003 of 13.43% compared to 13.63% for 2002. Return on average equity for 2001 was 11.85%.

Income tax expense for the Corporation was reduced by $350 thousand during the fourth quarter of 2003 due to the receipt of a New Markets Tax Credit. This credit was earned through the capitalization of Community Trust Community Development Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of Community Trust Bank, Inc. The Corporation was awarded a $7 million investment allocation and the resulting tax credit through competitive application to the federal government during 2002 to stimulate economic growth in low-income areas.

The Corporation's assets were $2.5 billion at December 31, 2003 and at December 31, 2002. The Corporation experienced an increase of $101.7 million in loans outstanding during 2003 as growth occurred in all three major loan categories--commercial, residential real estate, and consumer loans. Total deposits of $2.1 billion at December 31, 2003 represent a decrease of $60.1 million from December 31, 2002. Forty-five million of this decrease in deposits was the result of a corporate customer electing to move their money into repurchase agreements. Additionally, as a result of the continuing low interest rate environment for deposit accounts, the Corporation successfully moved $17.2 million in customer deposit accounts into alternative investments through its full service brokerage operations. The Corporation also elected not to renew brokered deposits, which were acquired during previous branch acquisitions, in the amount of $2.9 million. Collectively, the net decrease in deposits and repurchase agreements was $14.9 million. The Corporation’s liquidity is adequate with cash flows from its investment portfolio and wholesale funding sources considered available to fund its future loan growth.

Charter Changes

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

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

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

Our accounting policies are more fully described in note 1 to the consolidated financial statements. We have identified the following critical accounting policies:

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

Allowance for Loan Losses - The adequacy of the allowance is reviewed quarterly by management using a methodology that includes several key factors. The Corporation utilizes an internal risk grading system for commercial credits, and those larger commercial credits identified through this grading system as having weaknesses are individually reviewed for the customer's ability and potential to repay their loans. The borrower’s cash flow, adequacy of collateral held for the loan, and other options available to the Corporation including legal avenues are all evaluated. Based upon this individual credit evaluation, a specific allocation to the allowance may be made for the loan.

For other commercial loans that are not individually evaluated, an allowance allocation is determined by applying an eight-quarter moving average historical loss rate for this group of loans. Consumer installment and residential mortgage loans are not individually risk graded. Allowance allocations are provided for these pools of loans based upon an eight-quarter moving average historical loss rate for each of these categories of loans.

An unallocated portion of the allowance is also determined in recognition of the inherent inability to precisely determine the loss potential in any particular loan or pool of loans. The factors considered by management in determining this amount of inherent risk include delinquency trends, current economic conditions and trends, strength of the supervision and administration of the loan portfolio, level of nonperforming loans, trend in loan losses, recovery rates associated with previously charged-off loans, concentrations within commercial credits, problem loan identification strengths and weaknesses, collateral evaluation strengths and weaknesses, and level of financial statement exceptions. These factors are reviewed quarterly and weighted as deemed appropriate by management. The total of these weighted factors is then applied against the total loan portfolio and the allowance is adjusted accordingly.

The Corporation has not substantively changed any aspect of its overall approach in the determination of the allowance for loan losses since January 2002 when it converted to an eight quarter moving average for determining historical loss rates, using specific allocations for homogenous pools of loans, and applying the inherent risk factors discussed above against the total loan portfolio instead of against the preliminary allowance calculation as was done previously. There have been no material changes in assumptions or estimation techniques as compared to prior years that impacted the determination of the current year allowance.

Investments - Management determines the classification of securities at purchase. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, the Corporation classifies securities into held-to-maturity or available-for-sale categories. Held-to-maturity securities are those which the Corporation has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity and are reported at amortized cost. Available-for-sale securities are those the Corporation may decide to sell if needed for liquidity, asset/liability management, or other reasons. Available-for-sale securities are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses included as a separate component of shareholders’ equity, net of tax. If declines in fair value are not temporary, the carrying value of the securities is written down to fair value as a realized loss.

Gains or losses on disposition of securities are computed by specific identification for all securities except for shares in mutual funds, which are computed by average cost. Interest and dividend income, adjusted by amortization of purchase premium or discount, is included in earnings.

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

Goodwill - The Corporation evaluates total goodwill for impairment, based upon SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets and SFAS No. 147 , Acquisitions of Certain Financial Institutions, using fair value techniques including multiples of price/equity. Goodwill is evaluated for impairment on an annual basis.

Effects of Accounting Changes

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets - Effective January 1, 2002, the Corporation adopted SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. SFAS No. 142 requires that goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives no longer be amortized, but instead tested for impairment at least annually in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 142. SFAS No. 142 also requires that intangible assets with definite useful lives be amortized over their respective estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values and reviewed for impairment.

The Corporation evaluated total goodwill for impairment upon adoption of SFAS No. 142 and SFAS No. 147, Acquisitions of Certain Financial Institutions, concluding that there is no impairment as determined by evaluating goodwill using fair value techniques including multiples of price/equity. Goodwill is evaluated for impairment on an annual basis.

Upon adoption, the Corporation ceased amortizing goodwill of approximately $59.5 million arising from previous purchase transactions. This reduced amortization expense on an annual basis by $3.1 million and increased after-tax earnings on an annual basis by $2.3 million. Goodwill continues to be evaluated for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 142. The following table shows on a pro forma basis the results for the twelve months ended December 31, 2001 had SFAS No. 142 been implemented on January 1, 2001. Amortization of core deposit intangible for the twelve months ended December 31, 2003 and 2002 was $580 thousand annually. Anticipated amortization for the next five years is $580 thousand annually.

Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation—Transition and Disclosure - In December 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation--Transition and Disclosure. This statement amends SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, this statement amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123 to require disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements regarding the method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results. SFAS No. 148 is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2002. Adoption of SFAS No. 148 did not have a material impact on the Corporation's consolidated financial statements. As permitted by SFAS No. 148, the Corporation will continue to apply the provisions of Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, for all employee stock option grants and has elected to disclose pro forma net income and earnings per share amounts as if the fair-value based method had been applied in measuring compensation costs.

Had compensation cost for the Corporation’s stock options granted in 2003, 2002, and 2001 been determined under the fair value approach described in SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, the Corporation’s net income and earnings per share would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts indicated below:

The fair value of the options presented above was estimated at the date of the grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions for 2003, 2002, and 2001, respectively: risk-free interest rates of 2.69%, 3.68%, and 4.95%, dividend yields of 3.29%, 3.58%, and 4.86%, volatility factors of the expected market price of the Corporation’s common stock of 0.593, 0.290, and 0.300, and a weighted average expected option life of 4.0, 5.0, and 5.0.

Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities - In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46 (FIN 46), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities. FIN 46 clarifies the application of Accounting Research Bulletin (“ARB”) No. 51, Consolidated Financial Statements, for certain entities in which equity investors do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated support from other parties. FIN 46 requires variable interest entities to be consolidated by the primary beneficiary which represents the enterprise that will absorb the majority of the variable interest entities’ expected losses if they occur, receive a majority of the variable interest entities' residual returns if they occur, or both. Qualifying special purpose entities are exempt from the consolidation requirements of FIN 46. FIN 46 is effective immediately for variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003 and for variable interest entities in which an enterprise obtains an interest after that date. FIN 46 is effective in the first fiscal year or interim period beginning after June 15, 2003 for variable interest entities in which an enterprise holds a variable interest that was acquired before February 1, 2003, with earlier adoption permitted. The Corporation adopted the provisions of FIN 46 on July 1, 2003. The adoption of FIN 46 had no material impact on the Corporation's consolidated financial statements.

Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149, Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. This Statement amends and clarifies financial accounting and reporting for derivative instruments, including certain embedded derivatives, and for hedging activities under SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. This Statement amends SFAS No. 133 to reflect the decisions made as part of the Derivatives Implementation Group (DIG) and in other FASB projects or deliberations. SFAS No. 149 is effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003, and for hedging relationships designated after June 30, 2003. SFAS No. 149 was adopted by the Corporation on July 1, 2003. The Corporation has not entered into any contracts or hedging relationships; therefore, adoption of SFAS No. 149 had no effect on the Corporation's consolidated financial statements.

Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity - In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity. This Statement establishes standards for how an entity classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. This Statement requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability. Many of those instruments were previously classified as equity or in some cases presented between the liabilities section and the equity section of the statement of financial position. This Statement is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. The Corporation adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 150 on June 1, 2003. The adoption of SFAS No. 150 had no material effect on the Corporation's consolidated financial statements.

Results of Operations

2003 Compared to 2002

Net income for 2003 was $28.9 million compared to $27.6 million for 2002. The increase in net income was primarily driven by a 30.2% increase in noninterest income. See the Noninterest Income section below for additional information. Basic earnings per share for 2003 were $2.14 compared to $2.01 per share for 2002. The average shares outstanding in 2003 and 2002 were 13.5 million and 13.7 million, respectively.

Net interest income for 2003 was $84.6 million compared to $89.3 million in 2002. Noninterest income was $36.4 million compared to $27.9 million in 2002 and noninterest expense was $70.7 million compared to $67.3 million in 2002.

Return on average assets was 1.16% for 2003 compared to 1.12% in 2002, and return on average equity was 13.43% compared to 13.63% in 2002.

Net Interest Income:

The Corporation's net interest margin o f 3.76% was a 26 basis point or 7.2% decrease from the 4.02% for the year ended December 31, 2002. However, the net interest margin has shown improvement as seen by the 31 basis point increase quarter-over-quarter from 3.62% for the quarter ended September 30, 2003 to 3.93% for the quarter ended December 31, 2003. The Corporation experienced growth in all three loan categories during the last seven months of 2003. Assuming the current loan growth and the reallocation of earning assets from the investment portfolio to the higher yielding loan portfolio continue, management expects continuing improvement in its net interest margin. For further information, see the table titled "Consolidated Average Balance Sheets and Taxable Equivalent Income/Expense and Yields/Rates" in the Selected Statistical Information.

Average earning assets were $2.3 billion at December 31, 2003 and at December 31, 2002. Average interest bearing liabilities were $1.9 billion at December 31, 2003 and at December 31, 2002. Average interest bearing liabilities as a percentage of average earning assets were 83.7% at December 31, 2003 compared to 85.3% in 2002.

The taxable equivalent yield on average earning assets was 5.68% for 2003 compared to 6.54% in 2002. The cost of average interest bearing liabilities was 2.29% for 2003 compared to 2.96% for 2002. The yield on interest bearing assets has been impacted by the change in the earning asset mix between the loan portfolio and the investment portfolio as well as by the change in market rates. Average loans accounted for 73.2% of average earning assets in 2002 while average loans accounted for 72.3% of average earning assets in 2003. Average loans accounted for 67.3% of total average assets for the year ended December 31, 2002 compared to 66.5% for the year ended December 31, 2003. Total loans as a percentage of total assets as of December 31, 2003 and 2002 were 70.2% and 65.7%, respectively.

As presented in the interest rate sensitivity table in the Liquidity and Market Risk section that is included later in the Management Discussion and Analysis, the Corporation’s gap position on December 31, 2003 was relatively flat as the Corporation had sold securities during the year and reinvested in securities with shorter maturities to offset the shortened term of its liabilities. During 2003, the Corporation sold floating rate securities, U.S. treasuries, and 15-year mortgage-backed securities and reinvested in agencies, municipals, and mortgage-backed securities with a slightly longer duration, but with a favorable increase in the portfolio’s taxable equivalent yield. This extension of duration on the asset side of the balance sheet was the primary factor in the Corporation’s estimated earnings sensitivity in a 200 basis point increased rate environment declining from 4.38% at December 31, 2002 to 1.46% at December 31, 2003. For additional information, please refer to the Liquidity and Market Risk section below.

Provision for Loan Losses and Allowance for Loan Losses:

The provision for loan losses that was added to the allowance was $9.3 million as of December 31, 2003 compared to $10.1 million for 2002. This provision represents a charge against current earnings in order to maintain the allowance at an appropriate level determined using the accounting estimates described above. Loan losses, net of recoveries, as a percentage of average loans outstanding were 0.48% in 2003 compared to 0.63% in 2002 as net loan losses were $8.0 million for 2003 compared to $10.5 million for 2002.

Our reserve for losses on loans as a percentage of total loans outstanding remained flat at 1.42% as of December 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002.

Asset quality improved for the Corporation with nonperforming loans decreasing to $16.9 million, a 25.7% decrease from the $22.7 million at December 31, 2002. Nonperforming assets also improved by 8.0% for the year 2003, reflecting management’s continuing focus on improving asset quality.

Foreclosed properties on December 31, 2003 were $6.6 million, an increase from the $2.8 million at December 31, 2002. During the fourth quarter of 2003, the Corporation was successful in obtaining title to $3.1 million in real estate collateral from a problem credit that has been in foreclosure proceedings for approximately two years. The property was recorded at cost which was lower than market value. Foreclosed properties consist primarily of 1-4 family residential real estate.

Noninterest Income:

Noninterest income for the year ended December 31, 2003 of $36.4 million was a 30.2% increase from the $27.9 million earned during 2002. Increased deposit service charge income due to the Overdraft Honor Program implemented in September 2002 and a 20% increase in the overdraft fee effective June 2003, gains on sales of securities, gains on sales of loans due to increased refinancing activity, and other noninterest income contributed to the increase in noninterest income year-over-year. Service charges on deposit accounts increased $3.6 million from December 31, 2002 to December 31, 2003, securities gains increased $1.5 million, gains on sales of loans increased $1.3 million, and other noninterest income increased $2.1 million. As residential mortgage refinancing slowed, the Corporation had a decrease in gains on sales of loans during the fourth quarter of 2003.

While the increase in residential real estate loan refinancing activity, due to the low interest rate environment, resulted in higher noninterest income from the gains on sales of loans, noninterest income was negatively impacted by charges to our valuation reserve for capitalized mortgage servicing rights of $1.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2003 compared to $1.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2002. The impact to earnings per share for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002 was $0.06 per share and $0.05 per share, respectively. With the slow down in residential mortgage refinancing referenced above, the Corporation expects any impairment charge in 2004 to be less than prior years.

Noninterest Expense:

Noninterest expense increased 5.0% from $67.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2002 to $70.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. The increase in noninterest expense for the year was primarily attributable to increases in legal and professional fees, operating losses, and other noninterest expense. Legal and professional fees increased $1.0 million from December 31, 2002 to December 31, 2003, primarily due to fees incurred as a result of implementing the Overdraft Honor Program, operating losses increased $0.8 million, and other noninterest expense increased $1.6 million, including $0.8 million in nonrecurring charges to miscellaneous expense. Salaries and employee benefits remained relatively flat to prior year at $34.6 million; however, this line item included $1.8 million in charges in 2002 relative to the Corporation’s performance incentive plan. This plan requires a performance incentive payment to eligible employees if the Corporation reaches goals established by the Board of Directors. These goals were not met in 2003; however, if they are met in 2004, it is anticipated the cost will be approximately $2 million.

Our efficiency ratio was 59.2% at year-end 2003 compared to 57.3% at year-end 2002. The deposit to FTE (full-time equivalent) ratio decreased to $2.3 million at December 31, 2003 from $2.4 million at December 31, 2002.

2002 Compared to 2001

Net income for 2002 was $27.6 million compared to $22.3 million for 2001. Basic earnings per share for 2002 were $2.01 compared to $1.60 per share for 2001. The average shares outstanding in 2002 and 2001 were 13.7 million and 13.9 million, respectively.

Net interest income for 2002 was $89.3 million compared to $83.1 million in 2001. Noninterest income was $27.9 million compared to $23.8 million in 2001 and noninterest expense was $67.3 million compared to $64.9 million in 2001.

Return on average assets was 1.12% for 2002 compared to 0.91% in 2001, and return on average equity was 13.63% compared to 11.85% in 2001.

Net Interest Income:

The Corporation's net interest margin o f 4.02% was a 25 basis point or 6.6% increase from the 3.77% for the year ended December 31, 2001. While the net interest margin increased over prior year, it began to decline in the fourth quarter 2002. For further information, see the table titled "Consolidated Average Balance Sheets and Taxable Equivalent Income/Expense and Yields/Rates" in the Selected Statistical Information.

Average earning assets remained relatively flat at $2.3 billion from December 31, 2001 to December 31, 2002. Average interest bearing liabilities decreased slightly by 1.2% from $2.0 billion at December 31, 2001 to $1.9 billion at December 31, 2002. Average interest bearing liabilities as a percentage of average earning assets were 85.3% at December 31, 2002 compared to 86.7% in 2001.

The taxable equivalent yield on average earning assets was 6.54% for 2002 compared to 7.93% in 2001. The cost of average interest bearing liabilities was 2.96% for 2002 compared to 4.79% for 2001. The yield on interest bearing assets was impacted by the change in the earning asset mix as well as by the change in market rates in 2002. Loans accounted for 77.5% of average earning assets in 2001 while loans accounted for 73.2% of average earning assets in 2002. Loans accounted for 71.5% of total average assets for the year ended December 31, 2001 compared to 67.3% for the year ended December 31, 2002.

During 2001, as liabilities matured, our depositors elected to shorten the term of their deposits and consequently by December 31, 2001 our consolidated balance sheet had become negatively gapped over a twelve-month period. During 2002, the Corporation sold securities and reinvested in securities with shorter maturities to offset the shortened term of its liabilities. Consequently, at December 31, 2002 the Corporation's gap position was relatively flat.

Provision for Loan Losses and Allowance for Loan Losses:

The provision for loan losses that was added to the allowance was $10.1 million as of December 31, 2002 compared to $9.2 million for 2001. This provision represented a charge against current earnings in order to maintain the allowance at an appropriate level. Loan losses, net of recoveries, as a percentage of average loans outstanding were 0.63% in 2002 compared to 0.65% in 2001 as net loan losses were $10.5 million for 2002 compared to $11.4 million for 2001.

Our reserve for losses on loans as a percentage of total loans outstanding increased from the 1.38% of December 31, 2001 to 1.42% at December 31, 2002. The increase in reserve for losses on loans from prior year was reflective of weak economic conditions.

Nonperforming loans decreased 32.4% from prior year. Nonperforming loans on December 31, 2002 were $22.7 million compared to $33.7 million at December 31, 2001. The significant decline in nonperforming loans was attributable to the payout of one commercial problem loan totaling $3.7 million and the Corporation’s continuing focus on asset quality during a weak period in the economy.

Noninterest Income:

Noninterest income for the year ended December 31, 2002 of $27.9 million was a 17.5% increase from the $23.8 million earned during the same period in 2001. The increase in noninterest income for the year ended December 31, 2002 is primarily the result of increased deposit service charge revenue due to the implementation of our Overdraft Honor program, increased gains on sales of residential real estate loans due to increased refinancing activity, and increased gains on sales of securities. While the increase in residential real estate loan refinancing activity, due to the low interest rate environment, resulted in higher noninterest income from the gains on sales of loans, noninterest income was negatively impacted by the establishment of a valuation reserve of $1.1 million for the year to capitalized mortgage loan servicing rights.

Noninterest Expense:

Noninterest expense increased 3.7% from $64.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2001 to $67.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2002. The increase in noninterest expense for the year was primarily attributable to an increase in personnel expense due to the filling of budgeted key positions within the Corporation, an increase in salaries due to base salary costs associated with the acquisition of our Hazard Market, incentives earned by employees under our performance incentive program, and annual merit increases.

Our efficiency ratio of 57.3% at year-end 2002 improved to 60.1% at year-end 2001. The deposit to FTE (full-time equivalent) ratio remained flat at $2.4 million from December 31, 2001 to December 31, 2002. Salaries and employee benefits in 2002 were $34.6 million compared to $31.1 million in 2001. Occupancy expense was $5.6 million in 2002 compared to $5.3 million in 2001. Equipment expense remained flat at $3.6 million. Data processing costs were $3.9 million in 2002 compared to $4.0 million in 2001, and stationery, printing, and office supplies were $1.5 million compared to $1.4 million in 2001. Taxes other than payroll, property, and income, which consists mainly of franchise taxes on the equity and deposits of the Corporation, were $2.9 million compared to $2.2 million in 2001. FDIC insurance expense was $375 thousand compared to $395 thousand in 2001. Other categories of noninterest expense were $14.9 million in 2002 compared to $17.0 million in 2001.

Liquidity and Market Risk

The objective of the Corporation’s Asset/Liability management function is to maintain consistent growth in net interest income within the Corporation’s policy limits. This objective is accomplished through management of the Corporation’s consolidated balance sheet composition, liquidity, and interest rate risk exposures arising from changing economic conditions, interest rates, and customer preferences. The goal of liquidity management is to provide adequate funds to meet changes in loan and lease demand or unexpected deposit withdrawals. This is accomplished by maintaining liquid assets in the form of investment securities, maintaining sufficient unused borrowing capacity, and growth in core deposits. As of December 31, 2003, the Corporation had approximately $422 million in securities valued at estimated fair value designated as available-for-sale and available to meet liquidity needs on a continuing basis. Additional asset-driven liquidity is provided by the remainder of the securities portfolio and the repayment of loans. These sources, in addition to the Corporation’s 9% average equity capital base, provide a stable funding base. In addition to core deposit funding, the Corporation also accesses a variety of other short-term and long-term funding sources. The Corporation also relies on Federal Home Loan Bank advances for both liquidity and management of its asset/liability position. Federal Home Loan Bank advances were $3.2 million at December 31, 2003 compared to $5.6 million at December 31, 2002. As of December 31, 2003, the Corporation had a $290.4 million available borrowing position with the Federal Home Loan Bank. The Corporation generally relies upon net inflows of cash from financing activities, supplemented by net inflows of cash from operating activities, to provide cash for its investing activities. As is typical of many financial institutions, significant financing activities include deposit gathering, use of short-term borrowing facilities such as federal funds purchased and securities sold under repurchase agreements, and issuance of long-term debt. At December 31, 2003, the Corporation had a $12 million revolving line of credit, all of which is currently available to meet any future cash needs. The Corporation’s primary investing activities include purchases of securities and loan originations. Management does not rely on any one source of liquidity and manages availability in response to changing consolidated balance sheet needs.

During 2003, the Corporation continued its stock repurchase program which continues to be accretive to shareholder value. This program began in December 1998 with the authorization to acquire up to 500,000 shares and was increased by an additional 1,000,000 shares in July 2000. The Corporation issued a press release on May 13, 2003 announcing its intention to repurchase up to an additional 1,000,000 shares. The following table shows repurchases made through the stock repurchase program for the years 1999 through 2003:

Management considers interest rate risk the Corporation’s most significant market risk. Interest rate risk is the exposure to adverse changes in net interest income due to changes in interest rates. Consistency of the Corporation’s net interest revenue is largely dependent upon the effective management of interest rate risk. The Corporation employs a variety of measurement techniques to identify and manage its interest rate risk including the use of an earnings simulation model to analyze net interest income sensitivity to changing interest rates. The model is based on actual cash flows and repricing characteristics for on and off-balance sheet instruments and incorporates market-based assumptions regarding the effect of changing interest rates on the prepayment rates of certain assets and liabilities. Assumptions based on the historical behavior of deposit rates and balances in relation to changes in interest rates are also incorporated into the model. These assumptions are inherently uncertain, and as a result, the model cannot precisely measure net interest income or precisely predict the impact of fluctuations in interest rates on net interest income. Actual results will differ from simulated results due to timing, magnitude, and frequency of interest rate changes as well as changes in market conditions and management strategies.

The Corporation’s Asset/Liability Management Committee (ALCO), which includes executive and senior management representatives and reports to the Board of Directors, monitors and manages interest rate risk within Board-approved policy limits. The Corporation’s current exposure to interest rate risks is determined by measuring the anticipated change in net interest income over a twelve-month period assuming a 200 basis point increase or decrease in rates, spread evenly over the twelve-month period. The following table shows the Corporation’s estimated earnings sensitivity profile as of December 31, 2003:

(7.42)%

The simulation model used a 200 basis point increase in the yield curve spread evenly over a twelve-month period. The measurement at December 31, 2003 estimates that net interest income for the Corporation would increase by 1.46% over one year. A 200 basis point immediate and sustained decrease in interest rates would decrease net interest income by 2.18% over one year. In order to reduce the exposure to interest rate fluctuations and to manage liquidity, the Corporation has developed sale procedures for several types of interest-sensitive assets. All long-term, fixed rate single family residential mortgage loans underwritten according to Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation guidelines are sold for cash upon origination. Periodically, additional assets such as commercial loans are also sold. In 2003 and 2002, $195.8 million and $162.9 million, respectively, was realized on the sale of fixed rate residential mortgages. Management focuses its efforts on consistent net interest revenue and net interest margin growth through each of the retail and wholesale business lines. The Corporation does not currently engage in trading activities.

Capital Resources

The Corporation continues to grow its shareholders’ equity while also providing an average annual dividend yield during 2003 of 3.05% to shareholders. Shareholders’ equity of $221.4 million on December 31, 2003 is a 5.7% increase from the $209.4 million on December 31, 2002. The primary source of capital growth for the Corporation is retained earnings. Cash dividends were $0.82 per share for 2003 and $0.71 per share for 2002. The Corporation retained 61.7% of its earnings in 2003 compared to 64.7% in 2002.

Regulatory guidelines require bank holding companies, commercial banks, and savings banks to maintain certain minimum ratios and define companies as "well-capitalized" that sufficiently exceed the minimum ratios. The banking regulators may alter minimum capital requirements as a result of revising their internal policies and their ratings of individual institutions. To be "well-capitalized" banks and bank holding companies must maintain a Tier 1 leverage ratio of no less than 5.0%, a Tier 1 risk based ratio of no less than 6.0%, and a total risk based ratio of no less than 10.0%. The Corporation’s ratios as of December 31, 2003 were 8.73%, 11.35%, and 12.60%, respectively. Community Trust Bancorp, Inc. and it subsidiaries met the criteria for "well-capitalized" at December 31, 2003. See note 18 to the consolidated financial statements for further information.

On February 1, 2002, the Corporation issued an additional $25 million of junior subordinated debentures to CTBI Preferred Capital Trust II (CPCTII), a wholly owned subsidiary grantor trust. CPCTII subsequently issued trust preferred securities bearing interest at an annual rate of 8.25%, having a redemption date of March 31, 2007, and maturing on March 31, 2032. Proceeds of $8 million from this offering were used to pay off a revolving line of credit; $12.4 million was used for payment of the redemption of senior notes on February 25, 2002.

Upon the early adoption of FIN 46 effective July 1, 2003, the Corporation deconsolidated CPCTII, as well as CTBI Preferred Capital Trust, resulting in a recharacterization of the underlying consolidated debt obligations from the previous trust preferred securities obligations to junior subordinated debenture obligations. Under the current Federal Reserve Board’s regulatory framework, the junior subordinated debenture obligations both qualify as total capital for regulatory capital purposes. The Federal Reserve Board is currently evaluating whether these capital securities should continue to qualify as Tier 1 capital as a result of deconsolidating the related trust preferred securities in accordance with generally accepted accounting principals. If the Federal Reserve Board disallows the capital securities as Tier 1 regulatory capital, the effect of such a change could have a material impact on the Corporation’s regulatory ratios.

As of December 31, 2003, management is not aware of any current recommendations by banking regulatory authorities which, if they were to be implemented, would have, or are reasonably likely to have, a material adverse impact on the Corporation’s liquidity, capital resources, or operations.

Impact of Inflation, Changing Prices and Local Economic Conditions

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

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

Our success is dependent on the general economic conditions of the communities we serve. We provide financial and banking services primarily to eastern, northeast, central, and south central Kentucky and southern West Virginia. The economic conditions in these areas have a significant impact on loan demand, the ability of borrowers to repay loans, and the value of the collateral securing loans. A significant decline in general economic conditions will affect these local economic conditions and will negatively affect the financial results of our banking operations. Factors influencing general conditions include inflation, recession, unemployment, and other factors beyond our control. While the economies of a majority of the markets the Corporation serves are dependent to a significant extent on the coal and coal-related industries, the Corporation has determined that it has successfully diversified its loan portfolio to the extent that a significant decline in the coal or coal-related industries would not have a material impact on its banking operations. For additional information regarding concentrations of credit see note 16 to the consolidated financial statements.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation – The consolidated financial statements include Community Trust Bancorp, Inc. (the "Corporation") and its subsidiaries, including its principal subsidiary, Community Trust Bank, Inc. (the "Bank"). Intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management must make certain estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the amounts reported for assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, as well as affecting the disclosures provided. Future results could differ from the current estimates. Such estimates include, but are not limited to, the allowance for loan losses, fair value of securities and mortgage servicing rights, and goodwill (the excess of cost over net assets acquired).

Nature of Operations – Substantially all assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses are related to banking operations, including lending, investing of funds, obtaining of deposits, trust operations, full service brokerage operations, and other financing. All of the Corporation’s business offices and the majority of its business are located in eastern, northeast, central, and south central Kentucky and southern West Virginia.

Cash and Cash Equivalents – Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, amounts due from banks, interest bearing deposits in other financial institutions, and federal funds sold. Generally, federal funds are sold for one-day periods.

Investments – Management determines the classification of securities at purchase. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, the Corporation classifies securities into held-to-maturity or available-for-sale categories. Held-to-maturity securities are those which the Corporation has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity and are reported at amortized cost. Available-for-sale securities are those the Corporation may decide to sell if needed for liquidity, asset/liability management, or other reasons. Available-for-sale securities are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses included as a separate component of shareholders’ equity, net of tax. If declines in fair value are not temporary, the carrying value of the securities is written down to fair value as a realized loss.

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

Allowance for Loan Losses – The adequacy of the allowance is reviewed quarterly by management using a methodology that includes several key factors. The Corporation utilizes an internal risk grading system for commercial credits, and those larger commercial credits identified through this grading system as having weaknesses are individually reviewed for the customer's ability and potential to repay their loans. The borrower’s cash flow, adequacy of collateral held for the loan, and other options available to the Corporation including legal avenues are all evaluated. Based upon this individual credit evaluation, a specific allocation to the allowance may be made for the loan.

Premises and Equipment – Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Capital leases are included in premises and equipment at the capitalized amount less accumulated amortization.

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

Other Real Estate – Real estate acquired by foreclosure is carried at the lower of the investment in the property or its fair value. Other real estate owned by the Corporation included in other assets at December 31, 2003 and 2002 was $7.0 million and $3.4 million, respectively.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets – Effective January 1, 2002, the Corporation adopted SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. SFAS No. 142 requires that goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives no longer be amortized, but instead tested for impairment at least annually in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 142. SFAS No. 142 also requires that intangible assets with definite useful lives be amortized over their respective estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values and reviewed for impairment.

Upon adoption, the Corporation ceased amortizing goodwill of approximately $59.5 million arising from previous purchase transactions. This reduced amortization expense on an annual basis by $3.1 million and increased earnings on an annual basis by $2.3 million. Goodwill continues to be evaluated for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 142. The following table shows on a pro forma basis the results for the twelve months ended December 31, 2001 had SFAS No. 142 been implemented on January 1, 2001. Amortization of core deposit intangible for the twelve months ended December 31, 2003 and 2002 was $580 thousand annually. Anticipated amortization for the next five years is $580 thousand annually.

Loan Servicing Rights – Servicing assets are recognized as separate assets when rights are acquired through purchase or through sale of financial assets with servicing retained. Capitalized servicing rights are amortized against noninterest income in proportion to, and over the period of, the estimated future life of the underlying financial assets. Servicing assets are evaluated for impairment based upon the fair value of the rights as compared to amortized cost. Fair value is determined using prices for similar assets with like characteristics. Impairment is recorded to a capitalized servicing rights valuation reserve and recognized through earnings to the extent that fair value is less than the capitalized amount.

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

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

Diluted EPS adjusts the number of weighted average shares of common stock outstanding under the treasury stock method, which includes the dilutive effect of stock options.

Basic and diluted EPS have been restated for 2001 and 2002 to reflect the 10 percent common stock dividend paid on December 15, 2003.

New Accounting Pronouncements –

Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation—Transition and Disclosure - In December 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation--Transition and Disclosure. This statement amends SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, this statement amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123 to require disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements regarding the method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results. SFAS No. 148 is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2002. Adoption of SFAS No. 148 did not have a material impact on the Corporation's consolidated financial statements. As permitted by SFAS No. 148, the Corporation will continue to apply the provisions of Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, for all employee stock option grants and has elected to disclose pro forma net income and earnings per share amounts as if the fair-value based method had been applied in measuring compensation costs.

Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities - In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46 (FIN 46), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities. FIN 46 clarifies the application of Accounting Research Bulletin (“ARB”) No. 51, Consolidated Financial Statements, for certain entities in which equity investors do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated support from other parties. FIN 46 requires variable interest entities to be consolidated by the primary beneficiary which represents the enterprise that will absorb the majority of the variable interest entities’ expected losses if they occur, receive a majority of the variable interest entities' residual returns if they occur, or both. Qualifying special purpose entities are exempt from the consolidation requirements of FIN 46. FIN 46 is effective immediately for variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003 and for variable interest entities in which an enterprise obtains an interest after that date. FIN 46 is effective in the first fiscal year or interim period beginning after June 15, 2003 for variable interest entities in which an enterprise holds a variable interest that was acquired before February 1, 2003, with earlier adoption permitted. The Corporation adopted the provisions of FIN 46 on July 1, 2003. The adoption of FIN 46 had no material impact on the Corporation's consolidated financial statements.

Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149, Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. This Statement amends and clarifies financial accounting and reporting for derivative instruments, including certain embedded derivatives, and for hedging activities under SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. This Statement amends SFAS No. 133 to reflect the decisions made as part of the Derivatives Implementation Group (DIG) and in other FASB projects or deliberations. SFAS No. 149 is effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003, and for hedging relationships designated after June 30, 2003. SFAS No. 149 was adopted by the Corporation on July 1, 2003. The Corporation has not entered into any contracts or hedging relationships; therefore, adoption of SFAS No. 149 had no effect on the Corporation's consolidated financial statements.

Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity - In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity. This Statement establishes standards for how an entity classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. This Statement requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability. Many of those instruments were previously classified as equity or in some cases presented between the liabilities section and the equity section of the statement of financial position. This Statement is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. The Corporation adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 150 on June 1, 2003. The adoption of SFAS No. 150 had no material effect on the Corporation's consolidated financial statements.

Reclassification – Certain reclassifications have been made in the prior year consolidated financial statements to conform to current year classifications.

2. Cash and Due from Banks

Included in cash and due from banks are noninterest bearing deposits that are required to be held at the Federal Reserve or maintained in vault cash in accordance with regulatory reserve requirements. The balance requirements were $31.8 million and $28.1 million at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Cash paid during the years ended 2003, 2002, and 2001 for interest was $45.4 million, $59.8 million, and $97.1 million, respectively. Cash paid during the same periods for income taxes was $9.3 million, $11.0 million and $9.4 million, respectively.

5. Related Party Transactions

In the ordinary course of business, the Corporation’s banking subsidiary has made loans at prevailing interest rates and terms to directors and executive officers of the Corporation or its subsidiaries, including their associates (as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission). Management believes such loans were made on substantially the same terms, including interest rate and collateral, as those prevailing at the same time for comparable transactions with other persons. The aggregate amount of these loans at January 1, 2003 was $31.2 million. During 2003, activity with respect to these loans included new loans of $3.2 million and repayment of $2.4 million. As a result of these activities, the aggregate balance of these loans was $32.0 million at December 31, 2003.

At December 31, 2003, 2002, and 2001, loans serviced for the benefit of others, not included in the detail above, totaled $383 million, $331 million, and $274 million, respectively.

(in thousands) December 31	2003		2002

Subsidiaries:
Federal funds purchased	$	7,785	$	17,080
Securities sold under agreements to repurchase		96,506		51,351

The Bank intends to exercise the purchase option that becomes available in September 2004 for $921 thousand.		1,002		0

	$	105,293	$	68,431

On April 29, 2003, the Corporation entered into a revolving note agreement for a line of credit in the amount of $12 million, all of which is currently available to meet any future cash needs. The agreement will mature on April 28, 2004.

All federal funds purchased and the majority of securities sold under agreements to repurchase mature and reprice daily. The average rates paid for federal funds purchased and repurchase agreements on December 31, 2003 were 0.78% and 1.29%, respectively.

The maximum balance for federal funds purchased and repurchase agreements at any month-end during 2003 occurred at November 30, 2003, with a month-end balance of $112.7 million.

Long-term debt is categorized as follows:

(in thousands) December 31	2003		2002

Parent:
Junior subordinated debentures, 9.00%, due 3/31/27	$	34,500	$	34,500
Junior subordinated debentures, 8.25%, due 3/31/32		25,000		25,000
Subsidiaries:
Capital lease obligations		0		1,102
Other		0		2

	$	59,500	$	60,604

The 9.00% junior subordinated debentures due March 31, 2027 were issued by the Corporation to CTBI Preferred Capital Trust (CPCT). The 8.25% junior subordinated debentures due March 31, 2032 were issued by the Corporation to CTBI Preferred Capital Trust II (CPCTII). The Corporation has fully and unconditionally guaranteed all of CPCT’s and CPCTII’s obligations under trust preferred securities issued by CPCT and CPCTII.

Upon the early adoption of FIN 46 effective July 1, 2003, the Corporation deconsolidated both CPCT and CPCTII resulting in a recharacterization of the underlying consolidated debt obligations from the previous trust preferred securities obligations to junior subordinated debenture obligations. Under the current Federal Reserve Board’s regulatory framework, both the junior subordinated debenture obligations qualify as total capital for regulatory capital purposes. The Federal Reserve Board is currently evaluating whether these capital securities should continue to qualify as Tier 1 capital as a result of deconsolidating the related trust preferred securities in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. If the Federal Reserve Board disallows the capital securities as Tier 1 regulatory capital, the effect of such a change could have a material impact on the Corporation’s regulatory ratios.

11. Federal Income Taxes

The Corporation reports income taxes on the liability method, which places primary emphasis on the valuation of current and deferred tax assets and liabilities. The amount of income tax expense recognized for a period is the amount of income taxes currently payable or refundable, plus or minus the change in aggregate deferred tax assets and liabilities. The method focuses first on the consolidated balance sheet, and the amount of income tax expense is determined by changes in the components of the consolidated balance sheet.

12. Employee Benefits

The Corporation has a KSOP plan covering substantially all employees. Half of the first 8% of wages contributed by an employee is matched and goes into the savings and retirement portion of the plan. Employees may contribute additional non-matched amounts up to maximum limits provided by IRS regulations, and the Corporation may at its discretion, contribute an additional percentage of covered employees’ gross wages.

The Corporation currently contributes 4% of covered employees’ gross wages to the employee stock ownership plan (ESOP) portion of the plan. The ESOP uses the contribution to acquire shares of the Corporation’s common stock. The KSOP plan owned 1,000,706 shares of Corporation stock at December 31, 2003. Substantially all shares owned by the KSOP were allocated to employees’ accounts at December 31, 2003. The market price of the shares at the date of allocation is essentially the same as the market price at the date of purchase.

The total retirement plan expense, including KSOP expense, for 2003, 2002, and 2001 was $1.6 million, $1.6 million and $1.4 million, respectively.

The Corporation currently maintains two incentive stock option plans covering key employees; however, only one plan is active. The 1998 Stock Option Plan ("1998 Plan") was approved by the Board of Directors and the Shareholders in 1998. The 1998 Plan had 951,665 shares authorized, 405,380 of which were available at December 31, 2003 for future grants. All options granted have a maximum term of ten years. Options granted as management retention options vest after five years, all other options vest ratably over four years.

The Corporation has elected to follow Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees ("APB 25") and related interpretations in accounting for its employee stock options. Under APB 25, because the exercise price of all employee stock options equals the market price of the underlying stock on the date of the grant, no compensation expense is recognized.

The Corporation’s stock option activity for the 1998 Plan for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002, and 2001 is summarized as follows:

14. Fair Market Value of Financial Instruments

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value:

Cash and Cash Equivalents - The carrying amount approximates fair value.

Securities - Fair values are based on quoted market prices or dealer quotes.

Loans and Loans Held for Sale - The fair value of fixed rate loans and variable rate mortgage loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities. For other variable rate loans, the carrying amount approximates fair value.

FHLB Stock - The carrying value of Federal Home Loan Bank stock approximates fair value based on the redemption provisions of the Federal Home Loan Bank.

Deposits - The fair value of deposits is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.

Short-term Borrowings - The carrying amount approximates fair value.

Advances from Federal Home Loan Bank - The fair value of these fixed-maturity advances is estimated by discounting future cash flows using rates currently offered for advances of similar remaining maturities.

Long-term Debt - The fair value is estimated by discounting future cash flows using current rates.

Other Financial Instruments - The estimated fair value for other financial instruments and off-balance sheet loan commitments approximates cost at December 31, 2003 and 2002. Off-balance sheet loan commitments at December 31, 2003 and 2002 were $299.7 million and $281.3 million, respectively.

Commitments to Extend Credit - The fair value of commitments to extend credit is based upon the difference between the interest rate at which the Corporation is committed to make the loans and the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities, adjusted for the estimated volume of loan commitments actually expected to close. The fair value of such commitments is not material.

15. Off-Balance Sheet Transactions and Guarantees

The Bank is a party to transactions with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include standby letters of credit and commitments to extend credit in the form of unused lines of credit. The Bank uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments.

At December 31, the Bank had the following financial instruments, whose approximate contract amounts represent credit risk:

(in thousands)	2003		2002

Standby letters of credit	$	30,654	$	22,763
Commitments to extend credit		269,095		258,515

Standby letters of credit represent conditional commitments to guarantee the performance of a third party. The credit risk involved is essentially the same as the risk involved in making loans. At December 31, 2003, the Corporation maintained a credit loss reserve of approximately $0.02 million relating to these financial standby letters of credit. The reserve coverage calculation was determined using essentially the same methodology used for the allowance for loan losses. Approximately 84% of the total standby letters of credit are secured, with $20.9 million of the total $30.7 million secured by cash. Collateral for the remaining secured standby letters of credit varies but is comprised primarily of accounts receivable, inventory, property, equipment, and income-producing properties.

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. The Bank evaluates each customer’s credit-worthiness on a case-by-case basis. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. A portion of the commitments is to extend credit at fixed rates. Fixed rate loan commitments at December 31, 2003 of $23.5 million had interest rates and terms ranging predominantly from 4.75% to 8.13% and 6 months to 1 year, respectively. These credit commitments were based on prevailing rates, terms, and conditions applicable to other loans being made at December 31, 2003.

16. Concentrations of Credit Risk

The Corporation’s banking subsidiary grants commercial, residential, and consumer loans to customers primarily located in eastern, northeast, central, and south central Kentucky and southern West Virginia. The Bank is continuing to increase all components of its portfolio mix in a manner to reduce risk from changes in economic conditions. Concentrations of credit, as defined for regulatory purposes, are reviewed quarterly by management to ensure that internally established limits based on Tier 1 Capital plus the allowance for loan losses are not exceeded. At December 31, 2003 and 2002, the Corporation’s concentration of coal mining and related support industries credits based on established limits was 44% and 42% of Tier 1 Capital plus the allowance for loan losses, respectively. Agricultural credits at December 31, 2003 and 2002 were 40% and 41% of Tier 1 Capital plus the allowance for loan losses, respectively. These exposures were in the tobacco, beef cattle, dairy, and equine subsectors of this industry. Hotel/motel industry credits at December 31, 2003 and 2002 were 37% and 32%, respectively. Apartment and rental housing credits at December 31, 2003 and 2002 were 27% and 25%, respectively. These percentages are within the Corporation’s internally established limits regarding concentrations of credit.

17. Commitments and Contingencies

18. Regulatory Matters

The Corporation’s principal source of funds is dividends received from the subsidiary bank. Regulations limit the amount of dividends that may be paid by the Corporation’s banking subsidiary without prior approval. During 2004, approximately $27.5 million plus any 2004 net profits can be paid by the Corporation’s banking subsidiary without prior regulatory approval.

The Federal Reserve Bank adopted quantitative measures which assign risk weightings to assets and off-balance-sheet items and also define and set minimum regulatory capital requirements (risk-based capital ratios). All banks are required to have a minimum Tier 1 (core capital) leverage ratio of at least 4% of adjusted quarterly average assets, Tier 1 capital of at least 4% of risk-weighted assets, and total capital of at least 8% of risk-weighted assets. Tier 1 capital consists principally of shareholders’ equity including capital-qualifying subordinated debt but excluding unrealized gains and losses on securities available-for-sale, less goodwill and certain other intangibles. Total capital consists of Tier 1 capital plus certain debt instruments and the reserve for credit losses, subject to limitation. Failure to meet certain capital requirements can initiate certain actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the consolidated financial statements of the Corporation. The regulations also define well-capitalized levels of Tier 1 leverage, Tier 1, and total capital as 5%, 6%, and 10%, respectively. The Corporation had Tier 1 leverage, Tier 1, and total capital ratios above the well-capitalized levels at December 31, 2003 and 2002. Management believes, as of December 31, 2003, the Corporation meets all capital adequacy requirements for which it is subject to be defined as well-capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action.

Under the current Federal Reserve Board’s regulatory framework, certain capital securities offered by wholly-owned unconsolidated trust preferred entities of the Corporation are included as Tier 1 regulatory capital. The Federal Reserve Board is currently evaluating whether these capital securities should continue to qualify as Tier 1 capital as a result of deconsolidating the related trust preferred securities in accordance with generally accepted accounting principals. If the Federal Reserve Board disallows the capital securities as Tier 1 regulatory capital, the effect of such a change could have a material impact on the Corporation’s regulatory ratios.

Report of Independent Auditors

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders

Community Trust Bancorp, Inc.

Pikeville, Kentucky

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Community Trust Bancorp, Inc. and subsidiaries (“the Corporation”) as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2003. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Corporation’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. 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, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Community Trust Bancorp, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2003, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Corporation adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” effective January 1, 2002.
