Note 1 – Basis of Presentation

The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by Bank of the James Financial Group, Inc. (“Financial” or the “Company”) pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. In management’s opinion the accompanying financial statements, which unless otherwise noted are unaudited, reflect all adjustments, consisting solely of normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial information as of and for the three month periods ended March 31, 2008, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Additional information concerning the organization and business of Financial, accounting policies followed, and other related information are contained in Financial’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes for the year ended December 31, 2007 included in Financial’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. Results for the three month period ended March 31, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2008.

Financial’s critical accounting policy relates to the evaluation of the allowance for loan losses which is based on management’s opinion of an amount that is adequate to absorb loss in the existing portfolio of Bank of the James (the “Bank”), Financial’s wholly-owned subsidiary. The allowance for loan loss is established through a provision for loan loss based on available information including the composition of the loan portfolio, historical loan loss (to the extent available due to limited history), specific impaired loans, availability and quality of collateral, age of the various portfolios, changes in local economic conditions, and loan performance and quality of the portfolio. Different assumptions used in evaluating the adequacy of the Bank’s allowance for loan loss could result in material changes in Financial’s financial condition and results of operations. The Bank’s policies with respect to the methodology for determining the allowance for loan loss involve a higher degree of complexity and require management to make subjective judgments that often require assumptions or estimates about uncertain matters. These critical policies and their assumptions are periodically reviewed with the Board of Directors.

Note 2 – Use of Estimates

The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America which require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Note 3 – Earnings Per Share

For the quarters ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 basic earnings per share has been computed based upon the weighted average common shares outstanding of 2,554,407 and 2,541,972, respectively. All earnings per share amounts have been adjusted to reflect the 10% stock dividend paid by Financial in July 2007 as well as all prior stock dividends.

Currently, only the option shares granted to certain officers and other employees of Financial pursuant to the Amended and Restated Stock Option Plan of Financial are considered dilutive under the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, “Earnings Per Share.” The following is a summary of the earnings per share calculation for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007.

Note 4 – Stock Based Compensation

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment” (SFAS 123R). SFAS 123R requires companies to recognize the cost of employee services received in exchange for awards of equity instruments, such as stock options and restricted stock, based on the fair value of those awards at the date of grant and eliminates the choice to account for employee stock options under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (APB 25). The Company adopted SFAS 123R effective January 1, 2006 using the modified prospective method and as such, results for prior periods have not been restated. Prior to January 1, 2006, no compensation expense was recognized by the Company for stock option grants as all such grants had an exercise price not less than fair market value on the date of grant. The Company has not issued any restricted stock.

As a result of adopting SFAS 123R on January 1, 2006, the amount of stock-based compensation included within the non-interest expense category for the three months ended March 31, 2008 is $3,000 which had no impact on basic and diluted earnings per share for the same period.

Stock option plan activity for the three months ended March 31, 2008 is summarized below:

There were no options exercised during the first three months ended March 31, 2008. As of March 31, 2008 there was no unrecognized compensation expense related to non vested option awards, as all expense associated with all current outstanding awards have been realized.

Note 5 – Stock Dividend

On May 15, 2007, the Board of Directors of the Company declared a 10% stock dividend. The stock dividend was paid on July 24, 2007 to shareholders of record June 19, 2007. Following the stock dividend, the number of outstanding shares increased by 229,790. The dividend required a reclassification of retained earnings effective May 15, 2007 in the amount of $4,009,000. Of this amount, $497,000 was reclassified as common stock and $3,512,000 was reclassified as additional paid-in-capital. The reclassification did not change total stockholders’ equity. All per share amounts have been retroactively adjusted to reflect this dividend.

Note 6 – Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141(R), “Business Combinations” (SFAS 141(R)). The Standard will significantly change the financial accounting and reporting of business combination transactions. SFAS 141(R) establishes the criteria for how an acquiring entity in a business combination recognizes the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the transaction; establishes the acquisition date fair value as the measurement objective for all assets acquired and liabilities assumed; and requires the acquirer to disclose to investors and other users all of the information they need to evaluate and understand the nature and financial effect of the business combination. Acquisition related costs including finder’s fees, advisory, legal, accounting valuation and other professional and consulting fees are required to be expensed as incurred. SFAS 141(R) is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008 and early implementation is not permitted. The Company does not expect the implementation to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements” (SFAS 160). SFAS 160 requires the Company to establish accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. This Statement is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Earlier adoption is prohibited. The Company does not expect the implementation of SFAS 160 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Table of Contents

In March 2008, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities – an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133” (SFAS 161). SFAS 161 changes the disclosure requirements for derivative instruments and hedging activities. Entities are required to provide enhanced disclosures about (a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under Statement 133 and its related interpretations, and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows. SFAS 161 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application permitted. The Company does not expect the implementation of SFAS 161 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Note 7 – Fair Value Measurements

SFAS No. 157, 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 follow:

Following is 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

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. Currently, all of the Company’s securities are considered to be Level 2 securities.

Loans held for sale

Loans held for sale are required to be measured in a lower of cost or fair value. Under SFAS No. 157, market value is to represent fair value. Management obtains quotes or bids on all or part of these loans directly from the purchasing financial institutions. Premiums received or to be received on the quotes or bids are indicative of the fact that cost is lower than fair value. At March 31, 2008, the Company had no loans available for sale.

Table of Contents

Impaired loans

SFAS No. 157 applies to loans measured for impairment using the practical expedients permitted by SFAS No. 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan, including impaired loans measured at an observable market price (if available), or at the fair value of the loan’s collateral (if the loan is collateral dependent). Fair value of the loan’s collateral, when the loan is dependent on collateral, is determined by appraisals or independent valuation which is then adjusted for the cost related to liquidation of the collateral.

Other Real Estate Owned

Certain assets such as other real estate owned (OREO) are measured at fair value less cost to sell. We believe that the fair value component in its valuation follows the provisions of SFAS No. 157.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This report contains statements that constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The words “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “plan” and similar expressions and variations thereof identify certain of such forward-looking statements which speak only as of the dates on which they were made. Bank of the James Financial Group, Inc. undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. Readers are cautioned that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties, and that actual results may differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors. Factors that could cause actual results to differ from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: economic conditions (both generally and more specifically in the markets in which we operate); competition for our customers from other providers of financial services; government legislation and regulation (which changes from time to time and over which we have no control); changes in the value of real estate securing loans made by the Bank; changes in interest rates; and material unforeseen changes in the liquidity, results of operations, or financial condition of our customers. Other risks, uncertainties and factors could cause our actual results to differ materially from those projected in any forward-looking statements we make.

GENERAL

Critical Accounting Policies

Bank of the James Financial Group, Inc.’s (“Financial”) financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). The financial information contained within our statements is, to a significant extent, based on measures of the financial effects of transactions and events that have already occurred. A variety of factors could affect the ultimate value that is obtained either when earning income, recognizing an expense, recovering an asset or relieving a liability. We use historical loss ratios as one factor in determining the inherent loss that may be present in our loan portfolio. Actual losses could differ significantly from the historical factors that we use in estimating risk. In addition, GAAP itself may change from one previously acceptable method to another method. Although the economics of our transactions would be the same, the timing of events that would impact our transactions could change.

The allowance for loan losses is management’s estimate of the losses that may be sustained in our loan portfolio. The allowance is based on two basic principles of accounting: (i) SFAS No. 5, “Accounting for Contingencies,” which requires that losses be accrued when they are probable of occurring and are reasonably estimable and (ii) SFAS No. 114, “Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan,” which requires that losses on impaired loans be accrued based on the differences between the value of collateral, present value of future cash flows or values that are observable in the secondary market and the loan balance. See “Management Discussion and Analysis “Results of Operations – Allowance for Loan Losses and Loan Loss Reserve” below for further discussion of the allowance for loan losses.

Overview

Financial is a bank holding company with its headquarters in Lynchburg, Virginia. Financial was incorporated at the direction of Bank of the James (the “Bank”) on October 3, 2003 to serve as a bank holding company of the Bank. Financial had no business until January 1, 2004 when it acquired the common stock of the Bank through a statutory share exchange on a one-for-one basis. In addition to the

Table of Contents

Bank, Financial wholly-owns BOTJ Investment Group, Inc. (“Investment Group”) through which we offer brokerage, fixed and variable annuity products, and related services to the public through a third party broker-dealer. These two businesses are our only subsidiaries and primary assets. Financial conducts its business through the following three business segments: community banking through the Bank, mortgage origination through the Mortgage Division of the Bank, and securities brokerage services through Investment Group.

The Bank is a Virginia banking corporation headquartered in Lynchburg, Virginia. The Bank was incorporated under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia as a state chartered bank in 1998 and began banking operations in July 1999. The Bank was organized to engage in general retail and commercial banking business. The Bank is a community-oriented financial institution that provides varied banking services to individuals, small and medium-sized businesses, and professional concerns in the Central Virginia, Region 2000 area, which encompasses the seven jurisdictions of the Town of Altavista, Amherst County, Appomattox County, the City of Bedford, Bedford County, Campbell County, and the City of Lynchburg. The Bank strives to provide its customers with products comparable to statewide regional banks located in its market area, while maintaining the prompt response time and level of service of a community bank. Management believes this operating strategy has particular appeal in the Bank’s market area.

The Bank was organized in part as a response to the loss of many of the Central Virginia, Region 2000 area’s local financial institutions through mergers with larger, non-local banks and bank holding companies. The organizers perceived that local customers who once relied on experienced personal attention were being forced to use 800 numbers, computerized menus, and persons in other localities who were not familiar with their needs.

The Bank opened for business on July 22, 1999 to fill this void left in the Region 2000 market. The Bank’s organizers recognized that an opportunity existed to create a banking institution designed exclusively for a market that expected personalized service. The idea was to build a financial institution staffed with experienced professionals who would place a high value on knowing their customers and serving their distinctive banking needs.

The Bank was capitalized by more than 2,400 shareholders that wanted a new local bank. These investors provided the initial customer base and are integral to the success of the Bank. Management believes that the key to the Bank’s success lies in providing Bank customers with personalized service while providing products and services that meet their banking needs.

The Bank’s principal office is located at 828 Main Street, Lynchburg, Virginia 24504 and its telephone number is (434) 846-2000. The Bank also maintains a website at www.bankofthejames.com.

Financial declared a 10% stock dividend on May 15, 2007 which was paid on July 24, 2007.

Investment Group was incorporated under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia in 2006. Effective April 4, 2006, Investment Group began providing securities brokerage services to Bank customers and others. Investment Group provides the services through an agreement with Community Bankers’ Securities, LLC (“CB Securities”), a registered broker-dealer. Under this agreement, CB Securities will operate service centers in one or more branches of the Bank. As of the date hereof, Investment Group’s only center is located in the Church Street office. All centers will be staffed by a dual employee of Investment Group and CB Securities. Investment Group receives commissions on transactions generated and in some cases ongoing management fees such as mutual fund 12b-1 fees. As of the date hereof, Investment Group has been conducting business for approximately two years and its financial impact on the consolidated financials of the Company has been immaterial. In addition, Investment Group has purchased 4.96% of CBS Holdings, LLC for $10,000.

Our operating results depend primarily upon the Bank’s net interest income, which is determined by the difference between (i) interest and dividend income on earning assets, which consist primarily of

10

Table of Contents

loans, investment securities and other investments, and (ii) interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities, which consist principally of deposits and other borrowings. The Bank’s net income also is affected by its provision for loan losses, as well as the level of its non-interest income, including loan fees and service charges, and its non-interest expenses, including salaries and employee benefits, occupancy expense, data processing expenses, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation premiums, expense (both direct and indirect) in complying with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, miscellaneous other expenses, franchise taxes, and income taxes.

The Bank intends to enhance its profitability by increasing its market share in the Region 2000 area, providing additional services to its customers, and controlling costs.

The Bank currently serves its customers through the following seven full service offices: the main office located at 828 Main Street in Lynchburg (opened October 2004) (the “Main Street Office”), a branch located at 615 Church Street in Lynchburg (opened July 1999), a branch located at 5204 Fort Avenue in Lynchburg (opened November 2000), a branch located on South Amherst Highway in Amherst County (the “Madison Heights Branch”) (opened June 2002), a branch located at 17000 Forest Road in Forest (the “Forest Branch”) (opened February 2005); a branch located at 4935 Boonsboro Road, Suites C and D in Lynchburg (the “Boonsboro Branch”) (opened April 2006), a branch located at 164 South main Street, Amherst, Virginia (the “Amherst Branch”) (opened January 2007). In addition, the Bank, through its mortgage division, originates residential mortgage loans through two offices—one located at the Forest Branch and the other located at 14662 Moneta Rd., Suite A in Moneta (opened July 2005).

The Bank continuously evaluates areas located within Region 2000 to identify additional viable branch locations. Based on this ongoing evaluation, the Bank may acquire one or more additional suitable sites.

Subject to regulatory approval, the Bank anticipates opening additional branches during the next two fiscal years. Although numerous factors could influence the Bank’s expansion plans, the following discussion provides a general overview of the of the additional branch locations that the Bank currently is considering.

The Bank estimates that the cost of improvements, furniture, fixtures, and equipment necessary to upfit these properties will be between $900,000 and $1,500,000 per location.

11

Table of Contents

Although the Bank cannot predict with certainty the financial impact of each new branch, management generally anticipates that each new branch will become profitable within 12 to 18 months of operation.

Except as set forth herein, the Bank does not expect to purchase any significant property or equipment in the upcoming 12 months. Future branch openings are subject to regulatory approval.

The following discussion represents management’s discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations of Financial as of March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007 and for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007. It should be read in conjunction with the financial statements included elsewhere herein.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

The Bank is a party to various financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of our customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Such commitments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheets and could impact the overall liquidity and capital resources to the extent customers accept and or use these commitments.

The Bank’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Bank uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments. A summary of the Bank’s commitments is as follows:

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Because many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Bank upon extension of credit, is based on the Bank’s credit evaluation of the customer.

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Bank to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Those letters of credit are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers. Collateral is required in instances that the Bank deems necessary.

SUMMARY OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The comparison of the financial condition and operating results between March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007, as applicable, should be read in the context of the length of time for which the Bank has been operating.

Financial Condition Summary

March 31, 2008 as Compared to December 31, 2007

Total assets were $277,243,000 on March 31, 2008 compared with $270,060,000 at December 31, 2007. The increase in total assets is due in part to an increase in deposits resulting from an increase in rates (as a result of the competitive pressures of the market) that the Bank offers on its deposit products and the Bank’s reputation for service. In particular, new deposits at the recently opened Boonsboro Branch and Amherst Branch as well as the continued growth of our Madison Heights Branch, Main Street Office contributed to this increase in deposits.

Total deposits grew from $228,723,000 for the year ended December 31, 2007 to $229,005,000 on March 31, 2008, an increase of 0.12%. In addition, the Bank’s effort to increase non-FDIC insured sweep accounts (repurchase agreements) resulted in an increased balance in these accounts to $11,912,000 on March 31, 2008 from $10,542,000 on December 31, 2007.

Loans, net of unearned income and allowance, increased to $232,952,000 on March 31, 2008 from $224,022,000 on December 31, 2007, an increase of 3.99%. Total loans increased to $235,196,000 on March 31, 2008 from $226,168,000 on December 31, 2007. The following summarizes the position of the Bank’s loan portfolio as of the dates indicated by dollar amount and percentages (dollar amounts in thousands):

Non-accrual loans increased to $3,269,000 on March 31, 2008 from $1,246,000 on December 31, 2007. Management has provided for the anticipated losses on these loans in the loan loss reserve and does not anticipate that they will have a material impact on the financial condition of the Bank. We also classify other real estate owned (OREO) as a non-performing asset. OREO represents real property owned by the Bank either through purchase at foreclosure or received from the borrower through a deed in lieu of foreclosure. During the quarter ended March 31, 2008, the Bank purchased one property, which the Bank is carrying at a value of $146,000. This property is the Bank’s only OREO asset. The Bank currently is trying to sell this property. The Bank anticipates that the gain or loss on the sale of this property, if any, will not have a material impact on the Bank’s financial condition.

13

Table of Contents

The following tables set forth information regarding impaired and non-accrual loans as of March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007:

No non-accrual loans were excluded from impaired loan disclosure under SFAS No. 114 at March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007. If interest on these loans had been accrued, such income would have approximated $20,000 and $88,000, on March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007, respectively. Loan payments received on non-accrual loans are applied to principal. When a loan is placed on non-accrual status there are several negative implications. First, all interest accrued but unpaid at the time of the classification is deducted from the interest income totals for the Bank. Second, accruals of interest are discontinued until it becomes certain that both principal and interest can be repaid. Third, there may be actual losses that necessitate additional provisions for credit losses charged against earnings. These loans were included in the non-performing loan totals listed above.

Cash and cash equivalents increased to $7,595,000 on March 31, 2008 from $4,314,000 on December 31, 2007. Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash due from correspondents, cash in vault, and overnight borrowings (including federal funds sold). This increase is due in part to routine fluctuations in deposits, including fluctuations in transactional accounts and professional settlement accounts, both of which are subject to fluctuations, and will contribute to variations in cash and cash equivalents and the Bank does not consider this change to be material.

Securities held-to-maturity decreased to $5,994,000 on March 31, 2008 from $6,494,000 on December 31, 2007, which resulted from the call of securities prior to maturity. Securities available-for-sale decreased to $20,255,000 on March 31, 2008 from $25,733,000 on December 31, 2007. The decrease from December 31, 2007 in securities available-for-sale was primarily due to the sale of securities to fund loans and the principal amortization of mortgage-backed securities.

The following table summarizes the Bank’s holdings for both securities held-to-maturity and securities available-for-sale as of March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007 (amounts in thousands):

The following table shows the gross unrealized losses and fair value of the Bank’s investments, aggregated by investment category and length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position, at the date indicated:

15

Table of Contents

Management evaluates securities for other-than-temporary impairment at least on a quarterly basis, and may do so more frequently when economic or market concerns warrant such evaluation. Consideration is given to (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and (3) the intent and ability of Financial to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.

At March 31, 2008, the Company does not consider the unrealized losses as other-than-temporary losses due to the nature of the securities involved. The securities consist of 11 bonds. Four of these bonds are S&P rated AAA, two are S&P rated AA, and five are S&P rated A. Of these bonds five are indirectly backed by the U.S. Government, two are municipal bank-qualified issues, and four are issued by publicly traded United States corporations. For these reasons, management believes the default risk to be minimal. As management has the ability to hold securities until maturity, or for the foreseeable future if classified as available-for-sale, no declines are deemed to be other than temporary

At March 31, 2008, Financial had liquid assets of approximately $27,850,000 in the form of cash and available-for-sale investments. Management believes that liquid assets were adequate at March 31, 2008. Management anticipates that additional liquidity will be provided by the growth in deposit accounts and loan repayments at the Bank and the anticipated proceeds from stock offering currently in progress. In addition, the Bank has the ability to purchase federal funds on the open market and borrow from the Federal Reserve Bank’s discount window, if necessary.

Management is not aware of any trends, events or uncertainties that are reasonably likely to have a material negative impact on Financial’s short-term or long-term liquidity.

At March 31, 2008, the Bank had a leverage ratio of 9.01%, a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 10.71% and a total risk-based capital ratio of 11.69%. As of March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007 the Bank’s regulatory capital levels exceeded those established for well-capitalized institutions. The following table sets forth the minimum capital requirements and the Bank’s capital position as of March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007:

Comparison of the Three Months Ended March 31, 2008 and 2007

Earnings Summary

Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2008 was $504,000, compared to a net income of $398,000 for the same period in 2007, an increase of 26.6%. Net income increased in large part due to an increase in non-interest income and an increase in total earning assets.

Basic earnings per common share for the three months ended March 31, 2008 was $0.20 compared with $0.16 for the same period in 2007. Fully diluted earnings per common share for the three months ended March 31, 2008 was $0.19 compared with $0.15 for the same period in 2007. All earnings per share amounts have been adjusted to reflect the 10% stock dividend paid by Financial in July 2007 as well as all prior stock dividends.

These operating results represent an annualized return on shareholders’ equity of 8.28% for the three months ended March 31, 2008 compared with 7.33% for the same period in 2007. This increase was due in large part to an increase in the net income. The annualized return on average assets for the three months ended March 31, 2008 was 0.75% compared with 0.69% for the same period in 2007.

Interest Income, Interest Expense, and Net Interest Income

Interest income increased to $4,550,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2008 from $4,093,000 for the same period in 2007, an increase of 11.17%. This increase was due to an increase in interest earning assets, including loans and investment securities.

Interest expense increased to $1,985,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2008 from $1,785,000 for the same period in 2007, an increase of 11.20%. This increase in interest expense was primarily due to an increase in the aggregate balance in interest bearing deposit accounts, including the recently-introduced “2010 Savings Account” that will pay customers a minimum annual percentage yield of 3.00% through February 2010. The increase was partially offset by a decrease in rates paid on all other deposit accounts, including new and maturing certificates of deposit.

The fundamental source of the Bank’s revenue is net interest income, which is determined by the difference between (i) interest and dividend income on interest earning assets, which consist primarily of loans, investment securities and other investments, and (ii) interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities, which consist principally of deposits and other borrowings. Net interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2008 was $2,565,000 compared with $2,308,000 for the same period in 2007. The net interest margin decreased to 3.97% for the three months ended March 31, 2008 from 4.23% in the same period a year ago. The growth in net interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2008 as compared with the comparable three months in 2007 was due to the increase in average interest-earning assets, which was the result of growth in the loan portfolio funded by the growth in deposits. The Bank increased the rates that it pays on deposit accounts in response to competition and this contributed to the decrease in the net interest margin.

Financial’s net interest margin analysis and average balance sheets are shown in Schedule I on page 20.

Non-Interest Income

Non-interest income, which is comprised primarily of fees and charges on transactional deposit accounts, mortgage loan origination fees, commissions on sales of investments (since April, 2006), and the Bank’s ownership interest in a title insurance agency, increased to $739,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 2008, from $633,000 for the comparable period in 2007. This 16.75% increase was due in large part to increased in commissions earned by Investment Group and fees earned by the Mortgage Group.

The Bank, through Bank of the James Mortgage, a Division of Bank of the James (the “Mortgage Division”) originates both conforming and non-conforming consumer residential mortgage loans in the Region 2000 area. As part of the Bank’s overall risk management strategy, all of the loans originated and closed by the Mortgage Division are presold to major national mortgage banking or financial institutions. The Mortgage Division assumes no credit or interest rate risk on these mortgages. In July, 2005, the Mortgage Division opened its second mortgage origination office. This office is located in Moneta and was opened to serve the Smith Mountain Lake market. The Bank anticipates that this office will contribute additional non-interest income during 2008.

We anticipate that Investment Group and the Mortgage Division will continue to contribute additional non-interest income in the remainder of 2008.

Non-Interest Expense

Non-interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2008 increased to $2,439,000 from $2,186,000 for the comparable period in 2007. This 11.57% increase in non-interest expense can be attributed to increased occupancy expenses, along with an increase in compensation expense related to an increase in the number of employees necessary to accommodate the Bank’s growth and expansion.

Total personnel expense increased to $1,281,000 for the three month period ended March 31, 2008, from $1,187,000 for the comparable period in 2007. Compensation for some employees of the Mortgage Division and Investment Group is commission-based and therefore subject to fluctuation. The Bank also had increases in depreciation expense, data processing fees, and other operating expenses, all of which are related to the growth of the Bank.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The provision for loan losses is charged to earnings to bring the total allowance to a level deemed appropriate by management and is based upon many factors, including calculations of specific impairment of certain loans, general economic conditions, actual and expected credit losses, loan performance measures, historical trends and specific conditions of the individual borrower. Based on the application of the loan loss calculation, the Bank provided $125,000 to the allowance for loan loss for the three months ended March 31, 2008 compared to a provision of $151,000 for the comparable period in 2007. Management believes that the current allowance for loan loss of $2,244,000 (or 0.95% of total loans) at March 31, 2008 is adequate.

The following sets forth the reconciliation of the allowance for loan loss:

Income Taxes

For the three months March 31, 2008, Financial had an income tax expense of $236,000. Based on its 2007 income tax liability, Financial made an income tax payment of $262,000 during the quarter ended March 31, 2008.
