Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
March 31, 2010
NOTE 1. General
The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 (the 2009 Form 10-K).
The Company owns 100% of Bank of Clarke County (the Bank) and Eagle Financial Statutory Trust II. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions between the Company and the Bank have been eliminated. The subordinated debt of Eagle Financial Statutory Trust II is reflected as a liability of the Company.
Certain amounts in the consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to current year presentations.
NOTE 2. Stock-Based Compensation Plan
During 2003, the Companys shareholders approved a stock incentive plan which allows key employees and directors to increase their personal financial interest in the Company. This plan permits the issuance of incentive stock options and non-qualified stock options and the award of stock appreciation rights, common stock, restricted stock, and phantom stock. The plan authorizes the issuance of up to 300,000 shares of common stock.
The Company periodically grants Restricted Stock to its directors and executive officers. Restricted Stock provides grantees with rights to shares of common stock upon completion of a service period or achievement of Company performance measures. During the restriction period, all shares are considered outstanding and dividends are paid to the grantee. In general, outside directors are periodically granted restricted shares which vest over a period of less than six months. Beginning during 2006, executive officers were granted restricted shares which vest over a three year service period and restricted shares which vest based on meeting performance measures over a three year period. The Company recognizes compensation expense over the restricted period. The following table presents Restricted Stock activity for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009:

NOTE 3. Earnings Per Common Share
Basic earnings per share represents income available to common shareholders divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects additional common shares that would have been outstanding if dilutive potential common shares had been issued, as well as any adjustment to income that would result from the assumed issuance. The number of potential common shares is determined using the treasury method and relates to outstanding stock options and unvested restricted stock grants.
The following table shows the weighted average number of shares used in computing earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 and the effect on the weighted average number of shares of dilutive potential common stock. Potential dilutive common stock had no effect on income available to common shareholders.

Gross unrealized losses on available for sale securities included twenty (20) and twenty-five (25) debt securities at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. The Company evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment on at least a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market concerns warrant such evaluation. The Companys mortgage-backed securities are issued by U.S. government agencies, which guarantee payments to investors regardless of the status of the underlying mortgages. Consideration is given to the length of time and the amount of an unrealized loss, the financial condition of the issuer, and the intent and ability of the Company to retain its investment in the issuer long enough to allow for an anticipated recovery in fair value. The fair value of a security reflects its liquidity as compared to similar instruments, current market rates on similar instruments, and the creditworthiness of the issuer. Absent any change in the liquidity of a security or the creditworthiness of the issuer, prices will decline as market rates rise and vice-versa. The primary cause of the unrealized losses at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009 was changes in market interest rates. Since the losses can be primarily attributed to changes in market interest rates and not expected cash flows or an issuers financial condition, the unrealized losses are deemed to be temporary. The Companys holdings of corporate securities and equity securities represent investments in larger financial institutions. The current economic crisis involving housing, liquidity and credit were the primary causes of the unrealized losses on these securities at December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2010. The Company monitors the financial condition of these issuers continuously and will record other-than-temporary impairment if the recovery of value is unlikely.
The Companys securities are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, market, currency and credit risks. Due to the level of risk associated with certain securities and the level of uncertainty related to changes in the value of securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in risks in the near term would materially affect securities reported in the financial statements. In addition, recent economic uncertainty and market events have led to unprecedented volatility in currency, commodity, credit and equity markets culminating in failures of some banking and financial services firms and government intervention to solidify others. These recent events underscore the level of investment risk associated with the current economic environment, and accordingly the level of risk in the Companys securities.
Securities having a carrying value of $44,516,000 at March 31, 2010 were pledged to secure public deposits, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, and for other purposes required by law.

NOTE 8. Pension and Postretirement Benefit Plans
The Company has a funded noncontributory defined benefit pension plan that covers substantially all of its employees. The plan provides defined benefits based on years of service and final average salary. Effective December 31, 2006, the pension plan was amended so that no further benefits will accrue under the plan and no additional employees may become participants.
The Company provides certain health care and life insurance benefits for six retired employees who have met certain eligibility requirements. All other employees retiring after reaching age 65 and having at least 15 years of service with the Company will be allowed to stay on the Companys group life and health insurance policies, but will be required to pay premiums. The Companys share of the estimated costs that will be paid after retirement is generally being accrued by charges to expense over the employees active service periods to the dates they are fully eligible for benefits, except that the Companys unfunded cost that existed at January 1, 1993 is being accrued primarily in a straight-line manner that will result in its full accrual by December 31, 2013.
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) requires the Company to recognize the funded status (i.e. the difference between the fair value of plan assets and the projected benefit obligations) of its pension and postretirement benefit plans in the consolidated balance sheet, with a corresponding adjustment to accumulated other comprehensive income, net of taxes.
The following tables provide the components of net periodic benefit cost of the pension plan and postretirement benefit plan for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009:

Note 9 to the consolidated financial statements in the 2009 Form 10-K stated that the Company did not anticipate making any contributions to its pension during 2010. The Company did not make any contributions during the first three months of 2010.
The pension financial instruments measured and reported at fair value are classified and disclosed in one of the following categories:
| Level 1 | Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. | ||
| Level 2 | Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. | ||
| Level 3 | Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. |

NOTE 9. Trust Preferred Capital Notes
In June 2007, Eagle Financial Statutory Trust II (the Trust II), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, was formed for the purpose of issuing redeemable capital securities. On June 20, 2007, Trust II issued $7,000,000 of trust preferred securities and $217,000 in common equity. The principal asset of Trust II is $7,217,000 of the Companys junior subordinated debt securities with the same maturity and interest rate structures as the capital securities. The securities have a LIBOR-indexed floating rate of interest and the interest rate at March 31, 2010 was 1.87%. The securities have a mandatory redemption date of September 1, 2037, and are subject to varying call provisions beginning September 1, 2012.
The trust preferred securities are included in Tier 1 capital for regulatory capital adequacy purposes as long as their amount does not exceed 25% of Tier 1 capital, including total trust preferred securities. The portion of the trust preferred securities not considered as Tier 1 capital, if any, may be included in Tier 2 capital. At March 31, 2010, the total amount ($7,000,000) of trust preferred securities issued by Trust II is included in the Companys Tier 1 capital.
The obligations of the Company with respect to the issuance of the capital securities constitute a full and unconditional guarantee by the Company of the Trusts obligations with respect to the capital securities.
Subject to certain exceptions and limitations, the Company may elect from time to time to defer interest payments on the junior subordinated debt securities, which would result in a deferral of distribution payments on the related capital securities.
NOTE 10. Fair Value Measurements
GAAP requires the Company to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures. The fair value of certain assets and liabilities is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants.

Fair Value Measurements defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurement and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows:
| Level 1 | Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. | ||
| Level 2 | Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. | ||
| Level 3 | Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. |
The following sections provide a description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy:
Securities Available for Sale: Where quoted prices are available in an active market, securities are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. Level 1 securities would include highly liquid government bonds, mortgage products and exchange traded equities. If quoted market prices are not available, then fair values are estimated by using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics, or discounted cash flow. Level 2 securities would include U.S. agency securities, mortgage-backed agency securities, obligations of states and political subdivisions and certain corporate, asset backed and other securities. In certain cases where there is limited activity or less transparency around inputs to the valuation, securities are classified within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy.
Interest Rate Swap: The fair value is estimated by a third party using inputs that are observable or that can be corroborated by observable market data, and therefore, are classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy.

Certain financial assets are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with GAAP. Adjustments to the fair value of these assets usually result from the application of lower of cost or market accounting or write downs of individual assets.

The following describes the valuation techniques used by the Company to measure certain financial and nonfinancial assets recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in the financial statements:
Impaired Loans: Loans are designated as impaired when, in the judgment of management based on current information and events, it is probable that all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement will not be collected. The measurement of loss associated with impaired loans can be based on either the observable market price of the loan or the fair value of the collateral. Fair value is measured based on the value of the collateral securing the loans. Collateral may be in the form of real estate or business assets including equipment, inventory, and accounts receivable. The vast majority of the collateral is real estate. Level 2 impaired loan value is determined by utilizing an income or market valuation approach based on an appraisal conducted by an independent, licensed appraiser outside of the Company using observable market data. If the collateral is a house or building in the process of construction or if an appraisal of the real estate property is over two years old, then the fair value is considered Level 3. The value of business equipment is based upon an outside appraisal if deemed significant, or the net book value on the applicable business financial statements if not considered significant using observable market data. Level 3 impaired loan values are determined using inventory and accounts receivables collateral and are based on financial statement balances or aging reports. Impaired loans allocated to the Allowance for Loan Losses are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. Any fair value adjustments are recorded in the period incurred as provision for loan losses on the Consolidated Statements of Income.
Other Real Estate Owned: Assets acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are held for sale and are initially recorded at the lesser of the fair value of the property, less selling costs or the loan balance outstanding at the date of foreclosure. Any write-downs based on the assets fair value at the date of acquisition are charged to the allowance for loan losses. After foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed by management and property held for sale is carried at the lower of the new cost basis or fair value less cost to sell. Impairment losses on property to be held and used are measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of a property exceeds its fair value. Costs of significant property improvements are capitalized, whereas costs relating to holding property are expensed. The portion of interest costs relating to development of real estate is capitalized. Valuations are periodically performed by management, and any subsequent write-downs are recorded as a charge to operations, if necessary, to reduce the carrying value of a property to the lower of its cost or fair value less cost to sell. We believe that the fair value component in its valuation follows the provisions of GAAP.
Core deposit tangible: The fair value is determined by amortizing the intangible assets obtained during the acquisition of a branch in 1996.
The following table summarizes the Companys financial and nonfinancial assets that were measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009:

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 Companys 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 non-financial instruments from its disclosure requirements. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented may not necessarily represent the underlying fair value of the Company. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of the Companys financial instruments:
Cash and short-term investments/accrued interest: The fair value was equal to the carrying amount.
Securities: The fair value, excluding restricted securities, was based on quoted market prices. The fair value of restricted securities approximated the carrying amount based on the redemption provisions of the issuers.
Loans: The fair value of variable rate loans, which reprice frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, was equal to the carrying amount. The fair value of all other loans was determined using discounted cash flow analysis. The discount rate was equal to the current interest rate on similar products.
Deposits and borrowings: The fair value of demand deposits, savings accounts, and certain money market deposits was equal to the carrying amount. The fair value of all other deposits and borrowings was determined using discounted cash flow analysis. The discount rate was equal to the current interest rate on similar products.
Off-balance-sheet financial instruments: The fair value of commitments to extend credit was estimated using the fees currently charged to enter similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the credit worthiness of the counterparties. The fair value of fixed rate loan commitments also considered the difference between current interest rates and the committed interest rates. The fair value of standby letters of credit was estimated using the fees currently charged for similar agreements or on the estimated cost to terminate or otherwise settle the obligations with the counterparties.
The carrying amount and fair value of the Companys financial instruments at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2019 were as follows:

The Company assumes interest rate risk (the risk that general interest rate levels will change) during its normal operations. As a result, the fair value of the Companys 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 in order to minimize interest rate risk. However, borrowers with fixed rate obligations are less likely to prepay their principal balance in a rising rate environment and more likely to do so in a falling rate environment. Conversely, depositors who are receiving fixed rate interest payments 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 the terms of new loans and deposits and by investing in securities with terms that mitigate the Companys overall interest rate risk.

NOTE 11. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
Interest Rate Swaps
The Company uses interest rate swaps to reduce interest rate risks and to manage interest expense. By entering into these agreements, the Company converts floating rate debt into fixed rate debt, or alternatively, converts fixed rate debt into floating rate debt. Interest differentials paid or received under the swap agreements are reflected as adjustments to interest expense. These interest rate swap agreements are derivative instruments that qualify for hedge accounting as discussed in Note 1. The notional amounts of the interest rate swaps are not exchanged and do not represent exposure to credit loss. In the event of default by a counterparty, the risk in these transactions is the cost of replacing the agreements at current market rates.
On December 4, 2008, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement related to the outstanding trust preferred capital notes. The swap agreement became effective on December 1, 2008. The notional amount of the interest rate swap was $7,000,000 and has an expiration date of December 1, 2016. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company pays interest quarterly at a fixed rate of 2.85% and receives interest quarterly at a variable rate of three month LIBOR. The variable rate resets on each interest payment date.

NOTE 12. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2009, the FASB issued new guidance relating to the accounting for transfers of financial assets. The new guidance, which was issued as SFAS No. 166, Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets, an amendment to SFAS No. 140, was adopted into Codification in December 2009 through the issuance of Accounting Standards Updated (ASU) 2009-16. The new standard provides guidance to improve the relevance, representational faithfulness, and comparability of the information that an entity provides in its financial statements about a transfer of financial assets; the effects of a transfer on its financial position, financial performance, and cash flows; and a transferors continuing involvement, if any, in transferred financial assets. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the Companys (consolidated) financial statements.
In June 2009, the FASB issued new guidance relating to variable interest entities. The new guidance, which was issued as SFAS No. 167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R), was adopted into Codification in December 2009. The objective of the guidance is to improve financial reporting by enterprises involved with variable interest entities and to provide more relevant and reliable information to users of financial statements. SFAS No. 167 is effective as of January 1, 2010. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the Companys (consolidated) financial statements.

In October 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2009-15 (ASU 2009-15), Accounting for Own-Share Lending Arrangements in Contemplation of Convertible Debt Issuance or Other Financing. ASU 2009-15 amends Subtopic 470-20 to expand accounting and reporting guidance for own-share lending arrangements issued in contemplation of convertible debt issuance. ASU 2009-15 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2009 and interim periods within those fiscal years for arrangements outstanding as of the beginning of those fiscal years. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the Companys (consolidated) financial statements.
In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-04, Accounting for Various Topics Technical Corrections to SEC Paragraphs. ASU 2010-04 makes technical corrections to existing SEC guidance including the following topics: accounting for subsequent investments, termination of an interest rate swap, issuance of financial statements - subsequent events, use of residential method to value acquired assets other than goodwill, adjustments in assets and liabilities for holding gains and losses, and selections of discount rate used for measuring defined benefit obligation. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the Companys (consolidated) financial statements.
In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-05, Compensation Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Escrowed Share Arrangements and the Presumption of Compensation. ASU 2010-05 updates existing guidance to address the SEC staffs views on overcoming the presumption that for certain shareholders escrowed share arrangements represent compensation. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2010-05 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-06, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements. ASU 2010-06 amends Subtopic 820-10 to clarify existing disclosures, require new disclosures, and includes conforming amendments to guidance on employers disclosures about postretirement benefit plan assets. ASU 2010-06 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010 and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the Companys (consolidated) financial statements.
In February 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-08, Technical Corrections to Various Topics. ASU 2010-08 clarifies guidance on embedded derivatives and hedging. ASU 2010-08 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2009. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the Companys (consolidated) financial statements.
In February 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-09, Subsequent Events (Topic 855): Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements. ASU 2010-09 addresses both the interaction of the requirements of Topic 855 with the SECs reporting requirements and the intended breadth of the reissuance disclosures provisions related to subsequent events. An entity that is an SEC filer is not required to disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. ASU 2010-09 is effective immediately. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the Companys (consolidated) financial statements.
NOTE 13. Subsequent Events
The Company has evaluated events and transactions subsequent to March 31, 2010 through the date these financial statements were issued. Based on definitions and requirements of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles for Subsequent Events, the Company has not identified any events that require disclosure in the financial statements.

Item 2. | Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations |
The purpose of this discussion is to focus on the important factors affecting the Companys financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and capital resources. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the Companys Consolidated Financial Statements and the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements presented in Part I, Item 1, Financial Statements, of this Form 10-Q and Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, of the 2009 Form 10-K.
GENERAL
Eagle Financial Services, Inc. is a bank holding company which owns 100% of the stock of Bank of Clarke County (the Bank), collectively (the Company). Accordingly, the results of operations for the Company are dependent upon the operations of the Bank. The Bank conducts commercial banking business which consists of attracting deposits from the general public and investing those funds in commercial, consumer and real estate loans and corporate, municipal and U.S. government agency securities. The Banks deposits are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation to the extent permitted by law. At March 31, 2010, the Company had total assets of $549,592,000, net loans of $398,134,000, total deposits of $414,559,000 and shareholders equity of $53,054,000. The Companys net income was $1,578,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2010.
MANAGEMENTS STRATEGY
The Company strives to be an outstanding financial institution in its market by building solid sustainable relationships with: (1) its customers, by providing highly personalized customer service, a network of conveniently placed branches and ATMs, a competitive variety of products/services and courteous, professional employees, (2) its employees, by providing generous benefits, a positive work environment, advancement opportunities and incentives to exceed expectations, (3) its communities, by participating in local concerns, providing monetary support, supporting employee volunteerism and providing employment opportunities, and (4) its shareholders, by providing sound profits and returns, sustainable growth, regular dividends and committing to its local, independent status.
OPERATING STRATEGY
The Bank is a locally owned and managed financial institution. This allows the Bank to be flexible and responsive in the products and services it offers. The Bank grows primarily by lending funds to local residents and businesses at a competitive price that reflects the inherent risk of lending. The Bank attempts to fund these loans through deposits gathered from local residents and businesses. The Bank prices its deposits by comparing alternative sources of funds and selecting the lowest cost available. When deposits are not adequate to fund asset growth, the Bank relies on borrowings, both short and long term. The Banks primary source of borrowed funds is the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta which offers numerous terms and rate structures to the Bank.
As interest rates change, the Bank attempts to maintain its net interest margin. This is accomplished by changing the price, terms, and mix of its financial assets and liabilities. The Bank also earns fees on services provided through its trust department, sales of investments through Eagle Investment Services, mortgage originations and deposit operations. The Bank also incurs noninterest expenses such as compensating employees, maintaining and acquiring fixed assets, and purchasing goods and services necessary to support its daily operations.
The Bank has a marketing department which seeks to develop new business. This is accomplished through an ongoing calling program whereby account officers visit with existing and potential customers to discuss the products and services offered. The Bank also utilizes traditional advertising such as television commercials, radio ads, newspaper ads, and billboards.
LENDING POLICIES
Administration and supervision over the lending process is provided by the Banks Credit Administration Department. The principal risk associated with the Banks loan portfolio is the creditworthiness of its borrowers. In an effort to manage this risk, the Banks policy gives loan amount approval limits to individual loan officers based on their position and level of experience. Credit risk is increased or decreased, depending on the type of loan and prevailing economic conditions. In consideration of the different types of loans in the portfolio, the risk associated with real estate mortgage loans, commercial loans and consumer loans varies based on employment levels, consumer confidence, fluctuations in the value of real estate and other conditions that affect the ability of borrowers to repay debt.
The Company has written policies and procedures to help manage credit risk. The Company utilizes a loan review process that includes formulation of portfolio management strategy, guidelines for underwriting standards and risk assessment, procedures for ongoing identification and management of credit deterioration, and regular portfolio reviews to establish loss exposure and to ascertain compliance with the Companys policies.
17
The Bank uses a Directors Loan Committee and lending limits approved by the Directors Loan Committee to approve loan requests. The loan officers are categorized based on the amount of secured and unsecured lending authority they possess. The highest authority (Category I) is comprised of the Banks Chief Executive Officer and the Senior Loan Officer. There are six additional categories (Categories II, III, IV, V, VI, and VII) with different amounts of secured and unsecured authority. Two officers in Category I may combine their authority to approve a loan request of up to $2,000,000 secured or $1,000,000 unsecured. An officer in Category II, III, IV, V, VI, or VII may combine his or her authority with one officer in a higher category to approve a loan request. Any loan request which exceeds the combined authority of the categories must be presented to the Directors Loan Committee. The Directors Loan Committee, which currently consists of four directors (three directors constitute a quorum, of whom any two may act), approves loan requests which exceed the combined authority of two loan officers as described above. The minimum amount which requires Director Loan Committee approval, which is derived by combining the authorities of a Category I and Category VII officer, is $1,025,000 secured and $505,000 unsecured. The Directors Loan Committee also reviews and approves changes to the Banks Loan Policy as presented by management.
The following sections discuss the major loan categories within the total loan portfolio:
One-to-Four-Family Residential Real Estate Lending
Residential lending activity may be generated by the Banks loan officer solicitations, referrals by real estate professionals, and existing or new bank customers. Loan applications are taken by a Bank loan officer. As part of the application process, information is gathered concerning income, employment and credit history of the applicant. The valuation of residential collateral is provided by independent fee appraisers who have been approved by the Banks Directors Loan Committee. In connection with residential real estate loans, the Bank requires title insurance, hazard insurance and, if applicable, flood insurance. In addition to traditional residential mortgage loans secured by a first or junior lien on the property, the Bank offers home equity lines of credit.
Commercial Real Estate Lending
Commercial real estate loans are secured by various types of commercial real estate in the Banks market area, including multi-family residential buildings, commercial buildings and offices, small shopping centers and churches. Commercial real estate loan originations are obtained through broker referrals, direct solicitation of developers and continued business from customers. In its underwriting of commercial real estate, the Banks loan to original appraised value ratio is generally 80% or less. Commercial real estate lending entails significant additional risk as compared with residential mortgage lending. Commercial real estate loans typically involve larger loan balances concentrated with single borrowers or groups of related borrowers. Additionally, the repayment of loans secured by income producing properties is typically dependent on the successful operation of a business or a real estate project and thus may be subject, to a greater extent, to adverse conditions in the real estate market or the economy, in general. The Banks commercial real estate loan underwriting criteria require an examination of debt service coverage ratios, the borrowers creditworthiness, prior credit history and reputation, and the Bank typically requires personal guarantees or endorsements of the borrowers principal owners.
Construction and Land Development Lending
The Bank makes local construction loans, primarily residential, and land acquisition and development loans. The construction loans are secured by residential houses under construction and the underlying land for which the loan was obtained. The average life of most construction loans is less than one year and the Bank offers both fixed and variable rate interest structures. The interest rate structure offered to customers depends on the total amount of these loans outstanding and the impact of the interest rate structure on the Banks overall interest rate risk. There are two characteristics of construction lending which impact its overall risk as compared to residential mortgage lending. First, there is more concentration risk due to the extension of a large loan balance through several lines of credit to a single developer or contractor. Second, there is more collateral risk due to the fact that loan funds are provided to the borrower based upon the estimated value of the collateral after completion. This could cause an inaccurate estimate of the amount needed to complete construction or an excessive loan-to-value ratio. To mitigate the risks associated with construction lending, the Bank generally limits loan amounts to 80% of the estimated appraised value of the finished home. The Bank also obtains a first lien on the property as security for its construction loans and typically requires personal guarantees from the borrowers principal owners. Finally, the Bank performs inspections of the construction projects to ensure that the percentage of construction completed correlates with the amount of draws on the construction line of credit.
Commercial and Industrial Lending
Commercial business loans generally have more risk than residential mortgage loans, but have higher yields. To manage these risks, the Bank generally obtains appropriate collateral and personal guarantees from the borrowers principal owners and monitors the financial condition of its business borrowers. Residential mortgage loans generally are made on the basis of the borrowers ability to make repayment from employment and other income and are secured by real estate whose value tends to be readily ascertainable. In contrast, commercial business loans typically are made on the basis of the borrowers 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 is substantially dependent on the success of the business itself. Furthermore, the collateral for commercial business loans may depreciate over time and generally cannot be appraised with as much precision as residential real estate.
18
Consumer Lending
The Bank offers various secured and unsecured consumer loans, which include personal installment loans, personal lines of credit, automobile loans, and credit card loans. The Bank originates its consumer loans within its geographic market area and these loans are generally made to customers with whom the Bank has an existing relationship. Consumer loans generally entail greater risk than residential mortgage loans, particularly in the case of consumer loans which are unsecured or secured by rapidly depreciable assets such as automobiles. In such cases, any repossessed collateral on 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. Consumer loan collections are dependent on the borrowers 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.
The underwriting standards employed by the Bank for consumer loans include a determination of the applicants payment history on other debts and an assessment of ability to meet existing obligations and payments on the proposed loan. The stability of the applicants monthly income may be determined by verification of gross monthly income from primary employment, and from any verifiable secondary income. Although creditworthiness of the applicant is the primary consideration, the underwriting process also includes an analysis of the value of the security in relation to the proposed loan amount.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The financial statements of the Company are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The financial information contained within these statements is, to a significant extent, based on measurements of the financial effects of transactions and events that have already occurred. A variety of factors could affect the ultimate value that is obtained when earning income, recognizing an expense, recovering an asset or relieving a liability. The Company uses historical loss factors as one element in determining the inherent loss that may be present in the loan portfolio. Actual losses could differ significantly from the historical factors that are used. In addition, GAAP itself may change from one previously acceptable method to another method. Although the economics of the transactions would be the same, the timing of events that would impact the transactions could change.
The allowance for loan losses is an estimate of the losses that may be sustained in the Companys loan portfolio. As required by GAAP, the allowance for loan losses is accrued when their occurrence is probable and they can be estimated and that the losses be accrued based on the differences between the loan balance and the value of its collateral, the present value of future cash flows, or the price established in the secondary market. The Companys allowance for loan losses has three basic components: the formula allowance, the specific allowance and the unallocated allowance. Each of these components is determined based upon estimates that can and do change when actual events occur. The formula allowance uses historical experience factors to estimate future losses and, as a result, the estimated amount of losses can differ significantly from the actual amount of losses which would be incurred in the future. However, the potential for significant differences is mitigated by continuously updating the loss history of the Company. The specific allowance is based upon the evaluation of specific loans on which a loss may be realized. Factors such as past due history, ability to pay, and collateral value are used to identify those loans on which a loss may be realized. Each of these loans is then classified as to how much loss would be realized on its disposition. The sum of the losses on the individual loans becomes the Companys specific allowance. This process is inherently subjective and actual losses may be greater than or less than the estimated specific allowance. The unallocated allowance captures losses that are attributable to various economic events which may affect a certain loan type within the loan portfolio or a certain industrial or geographic sector within the Companys market. As the loans, which are affected by these events, are identified or losses are experienced on the loans which are affected by these events, they will be reflected within the specific or formula allowances. Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements presented in Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, of the 2009 Form 10-K, provides additional information related to the allowance for loan losses.
19
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
The Company makes forward looking statements in this report that are subject to risks and uncertainties. These forward looking statements include statements regarding our 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 implement growth strategies if the Bank is unable to identify attractive markets, locations or opportunities to expand in the future; |
| 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; |
| the successful management of interest rate risk; |
| risks inherent in making loans such as repayment risks and fluctuating collateral values; |
| changes in general economic and business conditions in the market area; |
| reliance on the management team, including the ability to attract and retain key personnel; |
| changes in interest rates and interest rate policies; |
| maintaining capital levels adequate to support growth; |
| maintaining cost controls and asset qualities as new branches are opened or acquired; |
| demand, development and acceptance of new products and services; |
| problems with technology utilized by the Bank; |
| changing trends in customer profiles and behavior; |
| changes in banking and other laws and regulations; and |
| other factors described in Item 1A., Risk Factors, in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009. |
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.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net Income
Net income for the first three months of 2010 was $1,578,000, an increase of $623,000 or 65.2% as compared to net income for the first three months of 2009 of $955,000. Earnings per share, basic and diluted, were $0.49 and $0.30 the first three months of 2010 and 2009, respectively.
Return on average assets (ROA) measures how efficiently the Company uses its assets to produce net income. Some issues reflected within this efficiency include the Companys asset mix, funding sources, pricing, fee generation, and cost control. The ROA of the Company, on an annualized basis, for the first three months of 2010 and 2009 was 1.17% and 0.74%, respectively.
Return on average equity (ROE) measures the utilization of shareholders equity in generating net income. This measurement is affected by the same factors as ROA with consideration to how much of the Companys assets are funded by shareholders. The ROE of the Company, on an annualized basis, for the first three months of 2010 and 2009 was 12.10% and 8.27%, respectively.
Net Interest Income
Net interest income, the difference between total interest income and total interest expense, is the Companys primary source of earnings. Net interest income was $5,429,000 and $4,692,000 for the first three months of 2010 and 2009, respectively, which represents an increase of $737,000 or 15.7%. The amount of net interest income is derived from the volume of earning assets and the rates earned on those assets as compared to the cost of funds. Average interest earning assets increased $412,000 from March 31, 2009 to March 31, 2010 while the average yield decreased 5 basis points over that same period. Total interest income was $6,844,000 and $6,759,000 for the first three months of 2010 and 2009, respectively, which represents an increase of $85,000 or 1.3%. Total interest expense was $1,415,000 and $2,067,000 for the first three months of 2010 and 2009, respectively, which represents a decrease of $652,000 or 31.5%. Average interest bearing liabilities decreased $2,830,000 from March 31, 2009 to March 31, 2010 while the interest bearing liabilities rate decreased 72 basis points over the same period.
The net interest margin was 4.52% and 3.98% for the first three months of 2010 and 2009, respectively. The net interest margin is calculated by dividing tax-equivalent net interest income by total average earnings assets. Tax-equivalent net interest income is calculated by adding the tax benefit on certain securities and loans, whose interest is tax-exempt, to total interest income then subtracting total interest expense. The tax rate used to calculate the tax benefit was 34% for 2010 and 2009. The following table reconciles tax-equivalent net interest income, which is not a measurement under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), to net interest income.

The tax-equivalent yield on earning assets decreased 5 basis points from 5.66% to 5.61% for the first three months of 2009 and 2010, respectively. The tax-equivalent yield on securities decreased 36 basis points from 5.32% to 4.96% for the first three months of 2009 and 2010, respectively. The tax-equivalent yield on loans remained the same at 5.88% for the first three months of 2009 and 2010. The average rate on interest bearing liabilities decreased 72 basis points from 2.12% to 1.40% for the first three months of 2009 and 2010, respectively. The average rate on interest bearing deposits decreased 76 basis points from 1.77% to 1.01% for the first three months of 2009 and 2010. The Companys higher level of variable liabilities contributed to a larger decrease in costs. In general, deposit pricing is done in response to monetary policy actions and yield curve changes. Also, local competition for funds affects the cost of time deposits, which are primarily comprised of certificates of deposit. The Company prefers to rely more heavily on non-maturity deposits, which include NOW accounts, money market accounts, and savings accounts. Changes in the average rate on interest-bearing liabilities can also be affected by the pricing on other sources of funds, namely borrowings. The Company utilized overnight
21
borrowings in the form of federal funds purchased, retail repurchase agreements and wholesale repurchase agreements. The average rate on these borrowings decreased 12 basis points from 2.51% to 2.39% for the first three months of 2009 and 2010. The cost of federal funds purchased is affected by the Federal Reserves changes in the federal funds target rate. The rate on retail repurchase agreements is variable and changes monthly. The Company also borrows from the FHLB in the form of short and long term advances. The average rate on FHLB advances decreased 24 basis points from 3.35% to 3.11% for the first three months of 2009 and 2010.
Provision for Loan Losses
The provision for loan losses is based upon managements estimate of the amount required to maintain an adequate allowance for loan losses as discussed within the Critical Accounting Policies section above. The provision for loan losses was $550,000 and $800,000 for the first three months of 2010 and 2009, respectively. The amount of provision for loan losses is affected by several factors including the growth rate of loans, net charge-offs, and the estimated amount of potential losses within the loan portfolio.
Changes in the amount of provision for loan losses during each period reflect the results of the Banks analysis used to determine the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. This analysis identifies changes in the creditworthiness of specific borrowers and changes in the value of collateral securing certain loans. The results, which consider net charge-offs and the provision, indicate whether the Companys allowance for loan losses is adequate given the potential losses within the loan portfolio. This analysis indicated that the Companys allowance for loan losses was adequate at March 31, 2010.
Noninterest Income
Total noninterest income for the first three months of 2010 and 2009 was $1,364,000 and $1,205,000, respectively, which represents an increase of $159,000 or 13.2%. Management reviews the activities which generate noninterest income on an ongoing basis. The following paragraphs provide information about activities which are included within the respective Consolidated Statements of Income headings.
Net gains on sales of securities was $98,000 for the first quarter of 2010. There were no sales or calls of securities which resulted in a gain or loss during the first three months of 2009.
Income from fiduciary activities, generated by trust services offered through Eagle Investment Group, was $240,000 for the first three months of 2009 and 2010. The amount of income from fiduciary activities is determined by the number of active accounts and total assets under management. Also, income can fluctuate due to the number of estates settled within any period.
Service charges on deposit accounts decreased $31,000 or 6.5% from $477,000 to $446,000 for the first three months of 2009 and 2010, respectively. Service charges on deposit accounts are derived from the volume of demand and savings accounts generated through the Banks branch network. Although the Bank continues to see an increase in these account types it has experienced a decrease in overdraft service charges.
Other service charges and fees increased $181,000 or 37.2% from $486,000 for the first three months of 2009 to $667,000 for the first three months of 2010. The amount of other services charges and fees is comprised primarily of commissions from the sale of non-deposit investment products, fees received from the Banks credit card program, fees generated from the Banks ATM/debit card programs, and fees generated from the origination of mortgage loans for the secondary market. Commissions from the sale of non-deposit investment products through Eagle Investment Group increased $52,000 or 57.8% from $90,000 to $142,000 for the first three months of 2009 and 2010, respectively. The amount of fees generated from the Banks ATM/debit card programs increased $47,000 or 23.5% from $200,000 to $247,000 for the first three months of 2009 and 2010, respectively. This increase resulted mostly from the manner in which the Company accounts for ATM revenue. In periods prior to 2010, ATM fee income had been netted against related expenses whereas ATM fees are now reflected as gross revenue.
Other operating income increased $37,000 from $2,000 to $39,000 for the first three months of 2009 and 2010, respectively. This increase is attributed to the increase in cash surrender value of officer life insurance.
Noninterest Expenses
Total noninterest expenses increased $226,000 or 5.9% from $3,832,000 to $4,058,000 for the first three months of 2009 and 2010, respectively. This increase can be mainly attributed to an increase in ATM network fees and FDIC assessments. The efficiency ratio of the Company was 57.62% and 62.99% for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009. The efficiency ratio is not a measurement under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. It is calculated by dividing non interest expense by the sum of tax equivalent net interest income and non interest income excluding gains and losses on the investment portfolio. The tax rate utilized is 34%. The following paragraphs provide information about expenses which are included within the respective Consolidated Statements of Income headings.
Salaries and benefits increased $19,000 or 0.9% from $2,170,000 for the first three months of 2009 to $2,189,000 for the first three months of 2010. Occupancy expenses decreased $4,000 or 1.4% from $296,000 to $292,000 for the first three months of 2009 and 2010, respectively. Equipment expenses decreased $19,000 from $171,000 to $152,000 for the first three months of 2009 and 2010, respectively.
22
Advertising and marketing expenses increased $10,000 or 10.5% from $95,000 to $105,000 for the first three months of 2009 and 2010, respectively. This category contains numerous expense types such as advertising, public relations, business development, and charitable contributions. The annual budgeted amount of advertising and marketing expenses is directly related to the Companys growth in assets. The total amount of advertising and marketing expenses varies based on planned events and advertising campaigns. Expenses are allocated in a manner which focuses on effectively reaching existing and potential customers within the market and contributing to the community.
FDIC assessments increased $188,000 or 149.2% from $126,000 to $314,000 for the first three months of 2009 and 2010, respectively. On December 30 2009, the Company prepaid their estimated quarterly FDIC assessments of $2,300,000 for 2010, 2011, and 2012.
Other operating expenses decreased $3,000 or 0.35% from $858,000 to $855,000 for the first three months of 2009 and 2010, respectively. This category is primarily comprised of the cost for services required during normal operations of the Company. Expenses which are directly affected by the number of branch locations and volume of accounts at the Bank include postage, insurance, ATM network fees, and credit card processing fees. Other expenses within this category are auditing fees and computer software expenses.
Income Taxes
Income tax expense was $607,000 and $310,000 for the first three months of 2010 and 2009, respectively. These amounts correspond to an effective tax rate of 27.70% and 24.51% for the first three months of 2010 and 2009, respectively. The difference between the effective tax rate and statutory income tax rate can be primarily attributed to tax-exempt interest earned on certain securities and loans.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
Securities
Total securities were $100,148,000 at March 31, 2010 as compared to $101,210,000 at December 31, 2009. This represents a decrease of $1,062,000 or 1.1%. The Company purchased $11,174,000 in securities during the first three months of 2010. The Company had total maturities and principal repayments of $10,024,000 during the first three months of 2010. The Company did not have any securities from a single issuer, other than U.S. government agencies, whose amount exceeded 10% of shareholders equity at March 31, 2010. Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements provides additional details about the Companys securities portfolio at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009. The Company had an unrealized gain on available for sale securities of $2,712,000 at March 31, 2010 as compared to an unrealized gain of $2,167,000 at December 31, 2009. Unrealized gains or losses on available for sale securities are reported within shareholders equity, net of the related deferred tax effect, as accumulated other comprehensive income.
Loan Portfolio
The Companys primary use of funds is supporting lending activities from which it derives the greatest amount of interest income. Gross loans were $404,425,000 and $404,066,000 at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. This represents an increase of $359,000 or 0.1% for the first three months of 2010. The ratio of loans to deposits decreased during the first quarter of 2010 from 101.5% at December 31, 2009 to 97.6% at March 31, 2010. The loan portfolio consists primarily of loans for owner-occupied single family dwellings, loans to acquire consumer products such as automobiles, and loans to small farms and businesses. Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements provides the composition of the loan portfolio at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009.
Loans secured by real estate were $358,683,000 or 88.7% and $358,374,000 or 88.7% of total loans at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. This represents an increase of $309,000 or 0.1% during the first three months of 2010. Consumer installment loans were $15,439,000 or 3.8% and $16,115,000 or 4.0% of total loans at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. This represents a decrease of $676,000 or 4.2% during the first three months of 2010. Commercial and industrial loans were $25,000,000 or 6.2% and $24,268,000 or 6.0% of total loans at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. This represents an increase of $732,000 or 3.0% for the first three months of 2010.
Allowance for Loan Losses
The purpose of and the methods for measuring the allowance for loan losses are discussed in the Critical Accounting Policies section above. Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements shows the activity within the allowance for loan losses during the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 and the year ended December 31, 2009. Charged-off loans were $281,000 and $361,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Recoveries were $52,000 and $48,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. This resulted in net charge-offs of $229,000 and $313,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of loans was 1.56% at March 31, 2010 and 1.48% at December 31, 2009. The allowance for loan losses was 70.0% of nonperforming assets at March 31, 2010 and 75.8% of nonperforming assets at December 31, 2009. Given the current economic environment, it is anticipated there could be an increase in past due loans, non performing loans and other real estate owned. However, the Company believes that the allowance for loan losses will be maintained at a level adequate to mitigate any negative impact resulting from such increases.

Nonperforming Assets
Nonperforming assets consist of nonaccrual loans, restructured loans, and other real estate owned (foreclosed properties). Nonaccrual loans were $7,430,000 and $5,099,000 at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. Other real estate owned was $1,556,000 and $2,776,000 at March 31, 2010 or December 31, 2009, respectively. The percentage of nonperforming assets to loans and other real estate owned was 1.83% at March 31, 2010. Because the Companys loan portfolio has a significant concentration in real estate loans, the softening of real estate values within the Companys market as well as the declines in housing activity have negatively impacted non performing asset levels. Total loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest were $2,000 and $13,000 at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.
Loans are placed on non-accrual status when collection of principal and interest is doubtful, generally when a loan becomes 90 days past due. There are three negative implications for earnings when a loan is placed on non-accrual status. First, all interest accrued but unpaid at the date that the loan is placed on non-accrual status is either deducted from interest income or written off as a loss. Second, accruals of interest are discontinued until it becomes certain that both principal and interest can be repaid. Finally, there may be actual losses that require additional provisions for loan losses to be charged against earnings.
For real estate loans, upon foreclosure, the balance of the loan is transferred to Other Real Estate Owned (OREO) and carried at the lower of the outstanding loan balance or the fair market value of the property based on current appraisals and other current market trends, less selling costs. If a write down of the OREO property is necessary at the time of foreclosure, the amount is charged-off against the allowance for loan losses. A review of the recorded property value is performed in conjunction with normal loan reviews, and if market conditions indicate that the recorded value exceeds the fair market value, additional write downs of the property value are charged directly to operations.
Deposits
Total deposits were $414,559,000 and $398,107,000 at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. This represents an increase of $16,452,000 or 4.1% during the first three months of 2010. Note 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements provides the composition of total deposits at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009.
Noninterest-bearing demand deposits, which are comprised of checking accounts, increased $902,000 or 1.0% from $90,575,000 at December 31, 2009 to $91,477,000 at March 31, 2010. Savings and interest-bearing demand deposits, which include NOW accounts, money market accounts and regular savings accounts, increased $832,000 or 0.5% from $170,485,000 at December 31, 2009 to $171,317,000 at March 31, 2010. Time deposits increased $14,718,000 or 10.7% from $137,047,000 at December 31, 2009 to $151,765,000 at March 31, 2010. This is comprised of an increase in time deposits of $100,000 and more of $5,779,000 or 10.9% and an increase in time deposits of less than $100,000 of $8,939,000 or 10.7%. Certificates of deposit also included $21,210,000 and $11,022,000 in brokered certificates of deposit at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009.
The Company attempts to fund asset growth with deposit accounts and focus upon core deposit growth as its primary source of funding. Core deposits consist of checking accounts, NOW accounts, money market accounts, regular savings accounts, and time deposits of less than $100,000. Core deposits totaled $334,427,000 or 80.7% and $333,942,000 or 83.9% of total deposits at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.

CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company continues to be a well capitalized financial institution. Total shareholders equity at March 31, 2010 was $53,054,000, reflecting a percentage of total assets of 9.65%, as compared to $51,643,000 and 9.65% at December 31, 2009. Shareholders equity per share increased $0.37 or 2.3% to $16.42 per share at March 31, 2010 from $16.05 per share at December 31, 2009. During the first quarters of 2009 and 2010, the Company paid a dividend of $0.17. Total dividends paid during 2009 were $0.68 per share. The Company has a Dividend Investment Plan that reinvests the dividends of the shareholder in Company stock.
Federal regulatory risk-based capital guidelines require percentages to be applied to various assets, including off-balance sheet assets, based on their perceived risk in order to calculate risk-weighted assets. Tier 1 capital consists of total shareholders equity plus qualifying trust preferred securities outstanding less net unrealized gains and losses on available for sale securities, goodwill and other intangible assets. Total capital is comprised of Tier 1 capital plus the allowable portion of the allowance for loan losses and any excess trust preferred securities that do not qualify as Tier 1 capital. The $7,000,000 in trust preferred securities, issued by the Company during 2007, qualifies as Tier 1 capital because this amount does not exceed 25% of total capital, including the trust preferred securities. Financial institutions must maintain a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of at least 4%, a total risk-based capital ratio of at least 8% and a minimum Tier 1 leverage ratio of 4%. The Companys policy requires a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of at least 8%, a total risk-based capital ratio of at least 10% and a minimum Tier 1 leverage ratio of 5%. The Companys Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio was 14.65% at March 31, 2010 as compared to 14.41% at December 31, 2009. The Companys total risk-based capital ratio was 15.90% at March 31, 2010 as compared to 15.66% at December 31, 2009. The Companys Tier 1 capital to average total assets ratio was 10.87% at March 31, 2010 as compared to 10.84% at December 31, 2009. The Company monitors these ratios on a quarterly basis and has several strategies, including without limitation the issuance of common stock or trust preferred securities, to ensure that these ratios remain above regulatory minimums.
LIQUIDITY
Liquidity management involves meeting the present and future financial obligations of the Company with the sale or maturity of assets or with the occurrence of additional liabilities. Liquidity needs are met with cash on hand, deposits in banks, federal funds sold, securities classified as available for sale and loans maturing within one year. At March 31, 2010, liquid assets totaled $214,832,000 as compared to $205,709,000 at December 31, 2009. These amounts represent 43.3% and 42.5% of total liabilities at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. The Company minimizes liquidity demand by utilizing core deposits to fund asset growth. Securities provide a constant source of liquidity through paydowns and maturities. Also, the Company maintains short-term borrowing arrangements, namely federal funds lines of credit, with larger financial institutions as an additional source of liquidity. Finally, the Banks membership with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta provides a source of borrowings with numerous rate and term structures. The Companys senior management monitors the liquidity position regularly and attempts to maintain a position which utilizes available funds most efficiently.
