PART I

Item 1.  Business

Community Trust Bancorp, Inc. (“CTBI”) is a bank holding company registered with the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System pursuant to Section 5(a) of the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended.  CTBI was incorporated August 12, 1980, under the laws of the Commonwealth of Kentucky for the purpose of becoming a bank holding company.  At December 31, 2007, CTBI owned all the capital stock of one commercial bank and one trust company, serving small and mid-sized communities in eastern, northeastern, central, and south central Kentucky and southern West Virginia.  The commercial bank is Community Trust Bank, Inc., Pikeville, Kentucky (the “Bank”) and the trust company is Community Trust and Investment Company, Lexington, Kentucky (the “Trust Company”).  At December 31, 2007, CTBI had total consolidated assets of $2.9 billion and total consolidated deposits, including repurchase agreements, of $2.5 billion, making it the second largest bank holding company headquartered in the Commonwealth of Kentucky.
 
Through its subsidiaries, CTBI engages in a wide range of commercial and personal banking and trust activities, which include accepting time and demand deposits; making secured and unsecured loans to corporations, individuals and others; providing cash management services to corporate and individual customers; issuing letters of credit; renting safe deposit boxes; and providing funds transfer services.  The lending activities of our Bank include making commercial, construction, mortgage, and personal loans.  Lease-financing, lines of credit, revolving lines of credit, term loans, and other specialized loans, including asset-based financing, are also available.  Our corporate subsidiaries act as trustees of personal trusts, as executors of estates, as trustees for employee benefit trusts, as registrars, transfer agents, and paying agents for bond and stock issues, as depositories for securities, and as providers of full service brokerage services.

COMPETITION
 
CTBI’s subsidiaries face substantial competition for deposit, credit, and trust relationships, as well as other sources of funding in the communities we serve.  Competing providers include state banks, national banks, thrifts, trust companies, insurance companies, mortgage banking operations, credit unions, finance companies, brokerage companies, and other financial and non-financial companies which may offer products functionally equivalent to those offered by our subsidiaries.  Many of these providers offer services within and outside the market areas served by our subsidiaries.  We strive to offer competitively priced products along with quality customer service to build customer relationships in the communities we serve.
 
Since July 1989, banking legislation in Kentucky places no limits on the number of banks or bank holding companies that a bank holding company may acquire.  Interstate acquisitions are allowed where reciprocity exists between the laws of Kentucky and the home state of the bank or bank holding company to be acquired.  Bank holding companies continue to be limited to control of less than 15% of deposits held by banks in the states where they do business (exclusive of inter-bank and foreign deposits).
 
The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 (the “GLB Act”) has expanded the permissible activities of a bank holding company.  The GLB Act allows qualifying bank holding companies to elect to be treated as financial holding companies.  A financial holding company may engage in activities that are financial in nature or are incidental or complementary to financial activities.  We have not yet elected to be treated as a financial holding company.  The GLB Act also eliminated restrictions imposed by the Glass-Steagall Financial Services Law, adopted in the 1930s, which prevented banking, insurance, and securities firms from fully entering each other’s business.  This legislation has resulted in further consolidation in the financial services industry.  In addition, removal of these restrictions has increased the number of entities providing banking services and thereby created additional competition.

No material portion of our business is seasonal.  We are not dependent upon any one customer or a few customers, and the loss of any one or a few customers would not have a material adverse effect on us.  See note 18 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding concentrations of credit.

We do not engage in any operations in foreign countries.

EMPLOYEES
 
As of December 31, 2007, CTBI and subsidiaries had 1,011 full-time equivalent employees.  Our employees are provided with a variety of employee benefits.  A retirement plan, an employee stock ownership plan, group life insurance, major medical insurance, a cafeteria plan, and annual management and employee incentive compensation plans are available to eligible personnel.

SUPERVISION AND REGULATION
 
We, as a registered bank holding company, are restricted to those activities permissible under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended, and are subject to actions of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System thereunder.  We are required to file an annual report with the Federal Reserve Board and are subject to an annual examination by the Board.
 
Our Bank is a state-chartered bank subject to state and federal banking laws and regulations and periodic examination by the Kentucky Office of Financial Institutions and the restrictions, including dividend restrictions, thereunder.  Our Bank is also a member of the Federal Reserve System and is subject to certain restrictions imposed by and to examination and supervision under the Federal Reserve Act.  Our Trust Company is also regulated by the Kentucky Office of Financial Institutions and the Federal Reserve.
 
Deposits of our Bank are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, which subjects banks to regulation and examination under the provisions of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act.
 
The operations of CTBI and our subsidiaries also are affected by other banking legislation and policies and practices of various regulatory authorities.  Such legislation and policies include statutory maximum rates on some loans, reserve requirements, domestic monetary and fiscal policy, and limitations on the kinds of services that may be offered.
 
CTBI’s annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K, and all amendments to those reports are available free of charge on our website at www.ctbi.com as soon as reasonably practicable after such materials are electronically filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission.  CTBI’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics is also available on our website.  Copies of our annual report will be made available free of charge upon written request.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Enterprise Risk Management
 
Risk is an inherent component of CTBI’s business activities.  The ability to effectively identify, assess, measure, respond, monitor, and report on risk in our business activities is critical to the achievement of CTBI’s mission and strategic objectives.  CTBI utilizes an enterprise wide risk management (EWRM) process designed to provide the Board and management with the capabilities needed to identify, assess, and manage the full spectrum of risks inherent to our industry.  While business unit managers are primarily responsible for managing risk inherent in their areas of responsibility, CTBI has established a risk management governance structure to establish policies, monitor adherence to the policies, and manage the overall risk profile of the company.  CTBI’s EWRM program is not intended to replace normal risk management activities conducted by the business unit managers.  The EWRM program is designed to provide a portfolio view of risks across the entire enterprise.
 
As an integral part of the risk management process, management has established various committees consisting of senior executives and others within CTBI.  The purpose of these committees is to closely monitor risks and ensure that adequate risk management practices exist within their respective areas of authority.  Some of the principal committees include the Asset/Liability Management (ALCO) Committee, the Loan Portfolio Risk Management Committee, the Senior Credit Committee, the Information Technology Steering Committee, and various compliance-related committees.  Overlapping membership of these committees by senior executives and others helps provide a unified view of risk on an enterprise-wide basis.  To facilitate an enterprise-wide view of CTBI’s risk profile and coordinate the enterprise risk management governance process, a Chief Risk Officer has been appointed, who oversees the process and reports on CTBI’s risk profile.  Additionally, risk champions are assigned for various areas.  The risk champions facilitate implementation of the enterprise risk management and governance process across the company.  An Enterprise Risk Management Committee has been established consisting of senior executives and others within CTBI, which oversees and supports the EWRM process.  The Board of Directors, through its Risk and Compliance Committee, has overall responsibility for oversight of CTBI’s enterprise risk management governance process.
 
Interest Rate Risk
Changes in interest rates could adversely affect our earnings and financial condition.
 
Our earnings and financial condition are dependent to a large degree upon net interest income, which is the difference between interest earned from loans and investments and interest paid on deposits and borrowings.  The narrowing of interest-rate spreads, meaning the difference between the interest rates earned on loans and investments and the interest rates paid on deposits and borrowings, could adversely affect our earnings and financial condition.  Interest rates are highly sensitive to many factors, including:
·  
The rate of inflation;
·  
The rate of economic growth;
·  
Employment levels;
·  
Monetary policies; and
·  
Instability in domestic and foreign financial markets.
 
Changes in market interest rates will also affect the level of voluntary prepayments on our loans and the receipt of payments on our mortgage-backed securities resulting in the receipt of proceeds that may be reinvested at a lower rate than the loan or mortgage-backed security being prepaid.
 
We originate residential loans for sale and for our portfolio. The origination of loans for sale is designed to meet client financing needs and earn fee income. The origination of loans for sale is highly dependent upon the local real estate market and the level and trend of interest rates.  Increasing interest rates may reduce the origination of loans for sale and consequently the fee income we earn.  While our commercial banking, construction, and income property business lines remain a significant portion of our activities, high interest rates may reduce our mortgage-banking activities and thereby our income.  In contrast, decreasing interest rates have the effect of causing clients to refinance mortgage loans faster than anticipated.  This causes the value of assets related to the servicing rights on loans sold to be lower than originally anticipated.  If this happens, we may need to write down our servicing assets faster, which would accelerate our expense and lower our earnings.
 
We consider interest rate risk one of our most significant market risks. Interest rate risk is the exposure to adverse changes in net interest income due to changes in interest rates.  Consistency of our net interest revenue is largely dependent upon the effective management of interest rate risk.  We employ a variety of measurement techniques to identify and manage our interest rate risk including the use of an earnings simulation model to analyze net interest income sensitivity to changing interest rates.  The model is based on actual cash flows and repricing characteristics for on and off-balance sheet instruments and incorporates market-based assumptions regarding the effect of changing interest rates on the prepayment rates of certain assets and liabilities.  Assumptions based on the historical behavior of deposit rates and balances in relation to changes in interest rates are also incorporated into the model.  These assumptions are inherently uncertain, and as a result, the model cannot precisely measure net interest income or precisely predict the impact of fluctuations in interest rates on net interest income.  Actual results will differ from simulated results due to timing, magnitude, and frequency of interest rate changes as well as changes in market conditions and management strategies.

Government Policies
Our business may be adversely affected by changes in government policies.

The earnings of banks and bank holding companies such as ours are affected by the policies of regulatory authorities, including the Federal Reserve Board, which regulates the money supply.  Among the methods employed by the Federal Reserve Board are open market operations in U.S. Government securities, changes in the discount rate on member bank borrowings, and changes in reserve requirements against member bank deposits.  These methods are used in varying combinations to influence overall growth and distribution of bank loans, investments and deposits, and their use may also affect interest rates charged on loans or paid on deposits.  The monetary policies of the Federal Reserve Board have had a significant effect on the operating results of commercial and savings banks in the past and are expected to continue to do so in the future.

The banking industry is highly regulated and changes in federal and state banking regulations as well as policies and administration guidelines may affect our practices, growth prospects, and earnings.

Credit Risk
Our earnings and reputation may be adversely affected if we fail to effectively manage our credit risk.
 
Originating and underwriting loans are integral to the success of our business.  This business requires us to take “credit risk,” which is the risk of losing principal and interest income because borrowers fail to repay loans.  Collateral values and the ability of borrowers to repay their loans may be affected at any time by factors such as:
·  
A downturn in the local economies in which we operate or the national economy;
·  
A downturn in one or more of the business sectors in which our customers operate; or
·  
A rapid increase in interest rates.
 
Although we do not have a subprime lending program, the current subprime lending crisis may have an adverse effect on our residential loan portfolio as proposed legislation may create an environment that will unreasonably delay the collection of past due amounts and impede our ability to make new residential loans.

Competition
Strong competition within our market area may reduce our ability to attract and retain deposits and originate loans.
 
We face competition both in originating loans and in attracting deposits. Competition in the financial services industry is intense.  We compete for clients by offering excellent service and competitive rates on our loans and deposit products.  The type of institutions we compete with include commercial banks, savings institutions, mortgage banking firms, credit unions, finance companies, mutual funds, insurance companies and brokerage and investment banking firms.  Competition arises from institutions located within and outside our market areas.  As a result of their size and ability to achieve economies of scale, certain of our competitors offer a broader range of products and services than we offer.  In addition, to stay competitive in our markets we may need to adjust the interest rates on our products to match the rates offered by our competitors, which could adversely affect our net interest margin.  As a result, our profitability depends upon our continued ability to successfully compete in our market areas while achieving our investment objectives.

Economy
Our business may be adversely affected by downturns in the local economies on which we depend.
 
Our loan portfolio is concentrated primarily in eastern, northeastern, central, and south central Kentucky and southern West Virginia.  Our profits depend on providing products and services to clients in these local regions.  An increase in unemployment, a decrease in real estate values, or increases in interest rates could weaken the local economies in which we operate.  Weakness in our market area could depress our earnings and consequently our financial condition because:
·  
Clients may not want or need our products and services;
·  
Borrowers may not be able to repay their loans;
·  
The value of the collateral securing our loans to borrowers may decline; and
·  
The quality of our loan portfolio may decline.

Acquisition Risk
We may have difficulty in the future continuing to grow through acquisitions.
 
Due to consolidation within the banking industry, the number of suitable acquisition targets has decreased and there is intense competition for attractive acquisitions.  As a result, we may experience difficulty in making acquisitions on acceptable terms.
 
Any future acquisitions or mergers by CTBI or its banking subsidiary are subject to approval by the appropriate federal and state banking regulators.  The banking regulators evaluate a number of criteria in making their approval decisions, such as:
·  
Safety and soundness guidelines;
·  
Compliance with all laws including the USA Patriot Act of 2001, the International Money Laundering Abatement and Anti-Terrorist Financing Act of 2001, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the related rules and regulations promulgated under such Act or the Exchange Act, the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, the Fair Housing Act, the Community Reinvestment Act, the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act, and all other applicable fair lending laws and other laws relating to discriminatory business practices; and
·  
Anti-competitive concerns with the proposed transaction.
 
If the banking regulators or a commenter on our regulatory application raise concerns about any of these criteria at the time a regulatory application is filed, the banking regulators may deny, delay, or condition their approval of a proposed transaction.
 
We have grown, and intend to continue to grow, through acquisitions of banks and other financial institutions.  After these acquisitions, we may experience adverse changes in results of operations of acquired entities, unforeseen liabilities, asset quality problems of acquired entities, loss of key personnel, loss of clients because of change of identity, difficulties in integrating data processing and operational procedures, and deterioration in local economic conditions.  These various acquisition risks can be heightened in larger transactions.
 
4

 
Integration Risk
We may not be able to achieve the expected integration and cost savings from our ongoing bank acquisition activities.
 
We have a long history of acquiring financial institutions and we expect this acquisition activity to continue in the future.  Difficulties may arise in the integration of the business and operations of the financial institutions that agree to merge with and into CTBI and, as a result, we may not be able to achieve the cost savings and synergies that we expect will result from the merger activities.  Achieving cost savings is dependent on consolidating certain operational and functional areas, eliminating duplicative positions and terminating certain agreements for outside services.  Additional operational savings are dependent upon the integration of the banking businesses of the acquired financial institution with that of CTBI, including the conversion of the acquired entity’s core operating systems, data systems and products to those of CTBI and the standardization of business practices.  Complications or difficulties in the conversion of the core operating systems, data systems, and products of these other banks to those of CTBI may result in the loss of clients, damage to our reputation within the financial services industry, operational problems, one-time costs currently not anticipated by us, and/or reduced cost savings resulting from the merger activities.

Operational Risk
An extended disruption of vital infrastructure or a security breach could negatively impact our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
 
Our operations depend upon, among other things, our infrastructure, including equipment and facilities.  Extended disruption of vital infrastructure by fire, power loss, natural disaster, telecommunications failure, computer hacking or viruses, terrorist activity or the domestic and foreign response to such activity, or other events outside of our control could have a material adverse impact on the financial services industry as a whole and on our business, results of operations, cash flows, and financial condition in particular.  Our business recovery plan may not work as intended or may not prevent significant interruption of our operations.  The occurrence of any failures, interruptions, or security breaches of our information systems could damage our reputation, result in the loss of customer business, subject us to additional regulatory scrutiny, or expose us to civil litigation and possible financial liability, any of which could have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operation.
 
Market Risk
Community Trust Bancorp, Inc.'s stock price is volatile.

Our stock price has been volatile in the past, and several factors could cause the price to fluctuate substantially in the future.  These factors include:
·  
Actual or anticipated variations in earnings;
·  
Changes in analysts' recommendations or projections;
·  
CTBI's announcements of developments related to our businesses;
·  
Operating and stock performance of other companies deemed to be peers;
·  
New technology used or services offered by traditional and non-traditional competitors; and
·  
News reports of trends, concerns, and other issues related to the financial services industry.
 
Our stock price may fluctuate significantly in the future, and these fluctuations may be unrelated to CTBI's performance.  General market price declines or market volatility in the future could adversely affect the price of our common stock, and the current market price may not be indicative of future market prices.

Technology Risk
CTBI continually encounters technological change.
 
The financial services industry is continually undergoing rapid technological change with frequent introductions of new technology-driven products and services.  The effective use of technology increases efficiency and enables financial institutions to better serve customers and to reduce costs.  Our future success depends, in part, upon our ability to address the needs of our customers by using technology to provide products and services that will satisfy customer demands, as well as to create additional efficiencies in our operations.  Many of our competitors have substantially greater resources to invest in technological improvements.  We may not be able to effectively implement new technology-driven products and services or be successful in marketing these products and services to our customers.  Failure to successfully keep pace with technological change affecting the financial services industry could have a material adverse impact on our business and, in turn, our financial condition and results of operations.

In 2007, gross interest income that would have been recorded on nonaccrual loans had the loans been current in accordance with their original terms amounted to $2.3 million.  Interest income actually received and included in net income for the period was $0.3 million, leaving $2.0 million of interest income not recognized during the period.

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

Potential Problem Loans
 
Interest accrual is discontinued when we believe, after considering economic and business conditions, collateral value, and collection efforts, that the borrower’s financial condition is such that collection of interest is doubtful.

Foreign Outstandings

None

Loan Concentrations

We had no concentration of loans exceeding 10% of total loans at December 31, 2007.  See note 18 to the consolidated financial statements for further information.

Dividends
 
The annual dividend paid to our stockholders was increased from $1.05 per share to $1.10 per share during 2007.  We have adopted a conservative policy of cash dividends by maintaining an average annual cash dividend ratio of less than 45%, with periodic stock dividends.  Dividends are typically paid on a quarterly basis.  Future dividends are subject to the discretion of CTBI’s Board of Directors, cash needs, general business conditions, dividends from our subsidiaries, and applicable governmental regulations and policies.  For information concerning restrictions on dividends from the subsidiary bank to CTBI, see note 20 to the consolidated financial statements included herein for the year ended December 31, 2007.

Stock Repurchases
 
CTBI repurchased 196,500 shares of its common stock during 2007, leaving 382,019 shares remaining under CTBI's current repurchase authorization.  We did not acquire any shares of stock through the stock repurchase program during the year 2006.  For further information, see the Liquidity and Market Risk section of Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Our Business
 
Community Trust Bancorp, Inc. (“CTBI”) is a bank holding company headquartered in Pikeville, Kentucky.  At December 31, 2007, CTBI owned one commercial bank and one trust company.  Through its subsidiaries, CTBI has seventy-six banking locations in eastern, northeast, central, and south central Kentucky and southern West Virginia, and five trust offices across Kentucky.  At December 31, 2007, CTBI had total consolidated assets of $2.9 billion and total consolidated deposits, including repurchase agreements, of $2.5 billion, making it the second largest bank holding company headquartered in the Commonwealth of Kentucky.  Total shareholders’ equity at December 31, 2007 was $301.4 million.
 
Through its subsidiaries, CTBI engages in a wide range of commercial and personal banking and trust activities, which include accepting time and demand deposits; making secured and unsecured loans to corporations, individuals and others; providing cash management services to corporate and individual customers; issuing letters of credit; renting safe deposit boxes; and providing funds transfer services.  The lending activities of our Bank include making commercial, construction, mortgage, and personal loans.  Lease-financing, lines of credit, revolving lines of credit, term loans, and other specialized loans, including asset-based financing, are also available.  Our corporate subsidiaries act as trustees of personal trusts, as executors of estates, as trustees for employee benefit trusts, as registrars, transfer agents, and paying agents for bond and stock issues, as depositories for securities, and as providers of full service brokerage services.  For further information, see Item 1 of this annual report.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
 
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the appropriate application of certain accounting policies, many of which require us to make estimates and assumptions about future events and their impact on amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements and related notes.  Since future events and their impact cannot be determined with certainty, the actual results will inevitably differ from our estimates.  Such differences could be material to the consolidated financial statements.
 
We believe the application of accounting policies and the estimates required therein are reasonable.  These accounting policies and estimates are constantly reevaluated, and adjustments are made when facts and circumstances dictate a change.  Historically, we have found our application of accounting policies to be appropriate, and actual results have not differed materially from those determined using necessary estimates.

Our accounting policies are more fully described in note 1 to the consolidated financial statements.  We have identified the following critical accounting policies:
 
Loans  Loans with the ability and the intent to be held until maturity and/or payoff are reported at the carrying value of unpaid principal reduced by unearned interest and an allowance for loan and lease losses.  Income is recorded on the level yield basis.  Interest accrual is discontinued when management believes, after considering economic and business conditions, collateral value, and collection efforts, that the borrower’s financial condition is such that collection of interest is doubtful.  Any loan greater than 90 days past due must be well secured and in the process of collection to continue accruing interest.  Cash payments received on nonaccrual loans generally are applied against principal, and interest income is only recorded once principal recovery is reasonably assured.  Loans are not reclassified as accruing until principal and interest payments are brought current and future payments appear reasonably certain.
 
Loan origination and commitment fees and certain direct loan origination costs are deferred and the net amount amortized over the estimated life of the related loans, leases, or commitments as a yield adjustment.
 
Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses  We maintain an allowance for loan and lease losses (“ALLL”) at a level that is appropriate to cover estimated credit losses on individually evaluated loans determined to be impaired, as well as estimated credit losses inherent in the remainder of the loan and lease portfolio.  Since arriving at an appropriate ALLL involves a high degree of management judgment, we use an ongoing quarterly analysis to develop a range of estimated losses.  In accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, we use our best estimate within the range of potential credit loss to determine the appropriate ALLL.  Credit losses are charged and recoveries are credited to the ALLL.
 
We utilize an internal risk grading system for commercial credits.  Those larger commercial credits that exhibit probable or observed credit weaknesses are subject to individual review.  The borrower’s cash flow, adequacy of collateral coverage, and other options available to CTBI, including legal remedies, are evaluated.  The review of individual loans includes those loans that are impaired as provided in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan.  We evaluate the collectibility of both principal and interest when assessing the need for loss provision.  Historical loss rates are applied to other commercial loans not subject to specific allocations.  The loss rates are determined from a migration analysis which computes the net charge off experience on loans according to their internal risk grade.
 
Homogenous loans, such as consumer installment, residential mortgages, and home equity lines are not individually risk graded.  The associated ALLL for these loans is measured under SFAS No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies.  The ALLL allocation for these pools of loans is established based on the average, maximum, minimum, and median loss ratios over the previous eight quarters.
 
Historical loss rates for commercial and retail loans are adjusted for significant factors that, in management’s judgment, reflect the impact of any current conditions on loss recognition.  Factors that we consider include delinquency trends, current economic conditions and trends, strength of supervision and administration of the loan portfolio, levels of underperforming loans, level of recoveries to prior year's charge offs, trend in loan losses, industry concentrations and their relative strengths, amount of unsecured loans and underwriting exceptions.  These factors are reviewed quarterly and a weighted range developed with a “most likely” scenario determined.  The total of each of these weighted factors is then applied against the applicable portion of the portfolio and the ALLL is adjusted accordingly.
 
Loans Held for Sale – Mortgage loans originated and intended for sale in the secondary market are carried at the lower of cost or estimated market value in the aggregate.  Net unrealized losses, if any, are recognized in a valuation allowance by charges to income.

Premises and Equipment – Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization.  Capital leases are included in premises and equipment at the capitalized amount less accumulated amortization.  Premises and equipment are evaluated for impairment on a quarterly basis.
 
Depreciation and amortization are computed primarily using the straight-line method.  Estimated useful lives range up to 40 years for buildings, 2 to 10 years for furniture, fixtures, and equipment, and up to the lease term for leasehold improvements.  Capitalized leased assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the lives of the respective leases.
 
Goodwill and Core Deposit Intangible  We evaluate total goodwill and core deposit intangible for impairment, based upon SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets and SFAS No. 147, Acquisitions of Certain Financial Institutions, using fair value techniques including multiples of price/equity.  Goodwill and core deposit intangible are evaluated for impairment on an annual basis or as other events may warrant.
 
Amortization of core deposit intangible is estimated at approximately $0.6 million annually for the next two years, approximately $0.4 million in year three, and approximately $0.1 million in years four and five.
 
           Income Taxes – Income tax expense is based on the taxes due on the consolidated tax return plus deferred taxes based on the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates.
 
Earnings Per Share (“EPS”) – Basic EPS is calculated by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.
 
Diluted EPS adjusts the number of weighted average shares of common stock outstanding by the dilutive effect of stock options as prescribed in SFAS No. 123R which is discussed in the New Accounting Standards section below.
 
Segments – Management analyzes the operation of CTBI assuming one operating segment, community banking services.  CTBI, through its operating subsidiaries, offers a wide range of consumer and commercial community banking services.  These services include: (i) residential and commercial real estate loans; (ii) checking accounts; (iii) regular and term savings accounts and savings certificates; (iv) full service securities brokerage services; (v) consumer loans; (vi) debit cards; (vii) annuity and life insurance products; (viii) Individual Retirement Accounts and Keogh plans; (ix) commercial loans; (x) trust services; and (xi) commercial demand deposit accounts.
 
Bank Owned Life Insurance – CTBI's bank owned life insurance policies are carried at their cash surrender value.  We recognize tax-free income from the periodic increases in cash surrender value of these policies and from death benefits.
 
Mortgage Servicing Rights – Mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”) are carried at fair market value with the implementation of SFAS 156 in January 2007.  The fair value is determined quarterly based on an independent third-party valuation using a discounted cash flow analysis and calculated using a computer pricing model.  The computer valuation is based on key economic assumptions including the prepayment speeds of the underlying loans, the weighted-average life of the loan, the discount rate, the weighted-average coupon, and the weighted-average default rate, as applicable.  MSRs are a component of other assets.  Along with the gains received from the sale of loans, fees are received for servicing loans.  These fees include late fees, which are recorded in interest income, and ancillary fees and monthly servicing fees, which are recorded in noninterest income.  Costs of servicing loans are charged to expense as incurred.  Changes in fair market value of the MSRs are reported as an increase or decrease to mortgage banking income.

New Accounting Standards
 
Ø Stock-Based Employee Compensation – Effective January 1, 2006, CTBI adopted SFAS No. 123(R) using the modified retrospective application basis in accounting for stock-based compensation plans.  Under SFAS No. 123(R), CTBI recognizes compensation expense for the grant-date fair value of stock-based compensation issued over its requisite service period.  Awards with a graded vesting are expensed on a straight-line basis.  The grant-date fair value of stock options is measured using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.  Had compensation cost for CTBI’s stock options granted in 2005 been determined under the fair value approach described in SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, CTBI’s net income and earnings per share would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts indicated below:

Ø Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Interpretation No. 48 (“FIN 48”), Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - An Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109.  FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes.  This statement also prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.  FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.  The evaluation of a tax position in accordance with this statement is a two-step process.  The first step is a recognition process to determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position.  The second step is a measurement process whereby a tax position that meets the more likely than not recognition threshold is calculated to determine the amount of benefit to recognize in the financial statements.  FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006.  CTBI adopted the provisions of FIN 48 on January 1, 2007.  The cumulative effect of applying the provisions of this statement was recognized as a $0.6 million adjustment to the beginning balance of retained earnings.  An additional $28 thousand increase to the FIN 48 liability was charged to current income tax expense during the quarter ended March 31, 2007.  The FIN 48 liability is carried in other liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2007.  Approximately $0.2 million in FIN 48 liability is relative to state nexus issues.  As of September 30, 2007, we reported resolution of these issues would be completed by March 2008.  However, due to ongoing negotiations with the jurisdiction involved, we now anticipate the filing of these returns by December 31, 2008.  CTBI is subject to taxation in the United States and various state and local jurisdictions.  For federal tax purposes, CTBI’s tax years for 2004 through 2007 are subject to examination by the tax authorities.  For state and local tax purposes, CTBI’s tax years for 2003 through 2007 are subject to examination by the tax authorities.  CTBI currently recognizes interest and penalties accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense.

Ø Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets – SFAS No. 156, Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets amends SFAS No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities – a replacement of SFAS No. 125, by requiring, in certain situations, an entity to recognize a servicing asset or servicing liability each time it undertakes an obligation to service a financial asset by entering into a servicing contract.  All separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities are required to be initially measured at fair value.  Subsequent measurement methods include the amortization method, whereby servicing assets or servicing liabilities are amortized in proportion to and over the period of estimated net servicing income or net servicing loss or the fair value method, whereby servicing assets or servicing liabilities are measured at fair value at each reporting date and changes in fair value are reported in earnings in the period in which they occur.  If the amortization method is used, an entity must assess servicing assets or servicing liabilities for impairment or increased obligation based on the fair value at each reporting date.  Adoption of SFAS 156 on January 1, 2007 did not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Ø Fair Value Measurements – In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, which provides guidance on how to measure assets and liabilities that use fair value.  SFAS 157 will apply whenever another generally accepted accounting principle standard requires (or permits) assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value but does not expand the use of fair value to any new circumstances.  This statement also will require additional disclosures in both annual and quarterly reports.  SFAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and was adopted by CTBI beginning the first quarter of 2008.  This statement will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
 
Ø Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities – In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, which permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value.  The objective is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities using different measurement techniques.  SFAS 159 requires additional disclosures related to the fair value measurements included in the entity's financial statements.  This statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after Nov. 15, 2007.  Accordingly, CTBI adopted SFAS 159 in the first quarter of 2008.  This statement will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Ø Accounting for Income Tax Benefits of Dividends on Share-Based Payment Awards – On June 14, 2007, the Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) reached a final consensus on Issue No. 06-11, Accounting for Income Tax Benefits of Dividends on Share-Based Payment Awards.  This consensus was ratified by FASB on June 27, 2007.  This issue states that tax benefits received on dividends paid to employees associated with their unvested stock compensation awards should be recorded in additional paid-in capital (“APIC”) for awards expected to vest.  Currently, such dividends are accounted for as a permanent tax deduction reducing the annual effective income tax rate.  This issue is to be applied prospectively to dividends declared in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007.  Retrospective application of this Issue is prohibited.  Issue No. 06-11 will not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

Ø Business Combinations (Revised 2007) The FASB recently issued SFAS No. 141(R), which replaces FAS 141, Business Combinations, and applies to all transactions and other events in which one entity obtains control over one or more other businesses.  SFAS 141R requires an acquirer, upon initially obtaining control of another entity, to recognize the assets, liabilities, and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree at fair value as of the acquisition date.  Contingent consideration is required to be recognized and measured at fair value on the date of acquisition rather than at a later date when the amount of that consideration may be determinable beyond a reasonable doubt.  This fair value approach replaces the cost-allocation process required under SFAS 141 whereby the cost of an acquisition was allocated to the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair value.  SFAS 141R requires acquirers to expense acquisition-related costs as incurred rather than allocating such costs to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as was previously the case under SFAS 141.  Under SFAS 141R, the requirements of SFAS 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities, would have to be met in order to accrue for a restructuring plan in purchase accounting.  Pre-acquisition contingencies are to be recognized at fair value, unless it is a non-contractual contingency that is not likely to materialize, in which case, nothing should be recognized in purchase accounting, and instead, that contingency would be subject to the probable and estimable recognition criteria of SFAS 5, Accounting for Contingencies.  SFAS 141R is expected to have a significant impact on our accounting for business combinations closing on or after January 1, 2009.

Ø Accounting for Deferred Compensation and Postretirement Benefit Aspects of Endorsement Split Dollar Life Insurance Arrangements EITF Issue No. 06-4, Accounting for Deferred Compensation and Postretirement Benefit Aspects of Endorsement Split Dollar Life Insurance Arrangements requires the recognition of a liability and related compensation expense for endorsement split-dollar life insurance policies that provide a benefit to an employee that extends to post-retirement periods.  Under EITF 06-4, life insurance policies purchased for the purpose of providing such benefits do not effectively settle an entity’s obligation to the employee.  Accordingly, the entity must recognize a liability and related compensation expense during the employee’s active service period based on the future cost of insurance to be incurred during the employee’s retirement.  If the entity has agreed to provide the employee with a death benefit, then the liability for the future death benefit should be recognized by following the guidance in SFAS 106, Employer’s Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions.  CTBI adopted EITF 06-4 effective as of January 1, 2008 as a change in accounting principle through a $1.8 million cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings.

Results of Operations

2007 Compared to 2006
 
Community Trust Bancorp, Inc. reported earnings for the year ended December 31, 2007 of $36.6 million or $2.42 per basic share compared to $39.1 million or $2.59 per basic share earned for the year 2006.  The decrease in net income was primarily driven by a $1.7 million decrease in net interest income and a $2.2 million increase in provision for loan losses.  CTBI's basic earnings per share for the year decreased 6.6% from the year ended December 31, 2006.  Our average shares outstanding increased from 15.1 million shares at December 31, 2006 to 15.2 million shares at December 31, 2007.

v  
Core earnings for the year 2007 reflect the pressure on our net interest income as CTBI operated within an inverted yield curve through most of 2007.

v  
Nonperforming loans at December 31, 2007 were $31.9 million, an increase of $17.7 million from 2006.

v  
Our loan portfolio increased 2.8% from December 31, 2006.  The market remains highly competitive and CTBI is continuing to focus on asset quality and loan yield.

v  
Our investment portfolio declined 23.4% from prior year, resulting from the payment of a $40 million FHLB advance and a decline in deposits which were funded through the sale of auction rate securities.

v  
Our efficiency ratio improved during the year 2007 primarily resulting from the 2007 receipt of a $1.2 million acquisition termination fee and the 2006 inclusion of a performance based employee incentive in the amount of $3.0 million which was not paid in 2007.

v  
Return on average assets for the year was 1.23% compared to 1.33% for the year 2006.  Return on average equity was 12.45% compared to 14.51%.

Net Interest Income:
 
Our net interest margin declined 12 basis points year over year.  Net interest income decreased $1.7 million from prior year.  The yield on average earnings assets for the year 2007 increased 17 basis points from 2006 in comparison to the 39 basis point increase in the cost of interest bearing funds.  Average earning assets have increased 1.6% from prior year-end.

Provision for Loan Losses and Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses:
 
The provision for loan losses that was added to the allowance for 2007 increased $2.2 million from the year 2006.  This provision represents a charge against current earnings in order to maintain the allowance at an appropriate level determined using the accounting estimates described in the Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates section.
 
Nonperforming loans at December 31, 2007 were $31.9 million compared to $14.2 million at December 31, 2006.  All nonperforming loans are individually reviewed with specific reserves established when appropriate.  The increase in nonperforming loans is driven primarily by the increased inventory and the number of days on the market of residential real estate developments in Central Kentucky.  We anticipate nonperforming loans to remain higher than recent history as the normal legal collection time period for real estate secured assets has been slowed due to increased volumes in the industry.  Our loan portfolio management processes focus on maintaining appropriate reserves for potential losses.
 
While we do not have subprime lending programs (i.e. Hybrid ARMs, Alt-A, Payment Option Loans, etc.), we do make loans that have subprime characteristics by regulatory definition; however, each loan is individually underwritten based on its creditworthiness.  The industry has experienced significant losses and increases in nonperforming loans in this area.  Although CTBI has shown an increase in residential nonperforming loans between year-end 2006 and 2007, we have also shown a decrease in 30-89 day past dues, and loan losses for 2007 represented only 0.09% in the residential portfolio.

Foreclosed properties at December 31, 2007 of $7.9 million were an approximate $3.4 million increase from the $4.5 million on December 31, 2006.  The year over year increase was driven by a $2.6 million increase in single family residential properties from our Central Kentucky Region where the market has softened.
 
Net loan charge-offs for the year ended December 31, 2007 of 0.27% of average loans annualized was a decrease from the 0.29% for 2006.  Our reserve for losses on loans as a percentage of total loans outstanding at December 31, 2007 was 1.26% compared to 1.27% at December 31, 2006.  The adequacy of our reserve for losses on loans is analyzed quarterly and adjusted as necessary.

Noninterest Income:
 
Noninterest income, after normalizing for the receipt of the $1.2 million fee associated with the termination of the Eagle Fidelity, Inc. acquisition in the third quarter, increased 8.8% from the year ended December 31, 2006, with increases in gains on sales of loans, deposit service charges, trust revenue, and loan related fees.

Noninterest Expense:
 
Noninterest expense increased 3.3% as a $1.2 million charge related to unamortized debt issuance costs with the redemption of trust preferred securities was offset by a decrease in personnel expense associated with the $3.0 million payment of a performance based employee incentive in 2006 which was not paid in 2007.

Balance Sheet Review:
 
CTBI’s total assets decreased $67.1 million or 2.3% from prior year.  The year over year decrease resulted from the payoff of a $40 million FHLB advance and a decline in deposits which were funded through the sale of auction rate securities.  Loans outstanding at December 31, 2007 were $2.2 billion reflecting a $60.4 million or 2.8% increase year over year.  CTBI's investment portfolio decreased $109.2 million from prior year-end.  Deposits, including repurchase agreements, declined $50.7 million or 2.0% during the year as CTBI focused on managing deposit growth and pricing controls due to its liquidity position.  The deposit (including repurchase agreements) to FTE (full-time equivalent) ratio decreased to $2.4 million at December 31, 2007 from $2.5 million at December 31, 2006.  Shareholders’ equity of $301.4 million on December 31, 2007 was an increase of 6.7% from December 31, 2006.

2006 Compared to 2005
 
Net income for the year 2006 increased 13.5% over 2005 while our basic earnings per share increased 12.1%.  The increase in net income was primarily driven by a $4.6 million increase in our net interest revenue and a $4.0 million decrease in provision for loan losses.  See below for further information.  Our average shares outstanding increased from 14.9 million in 2005 to 15.1 million in 2006.

Net Interest Income:
 
Our year over year net interest margin remained flat at 4.02%.  As rates stabilized in the latter part of the year, the margin compressed as expected.  Our net interest margin for the fourth quarter 2006 was 3.94% compared to 4.12% for the fourth quarter 2005 and 4.08% for the third quarter 2006.
 
Year-to-date net interest income increased 4.4% from the year ended December 31, 2005.  Interest income increased $29.0 million or 18.1% while interest expense increased $24.4 million or 42.8%.  Average earning assets for the year ended December 31, 2006 increased $116.0 million or 4.5% over 2005.  Average interest bearing liabilities increased $86.5 million or 4.1% over prior year.  The taxable equivalent yield on average earning assets for the year 2006 increased 80 basis points from prior year to 7.02% while the cost of interest of interest bearing liabilities increased 100 basis points to 3.68%.  The cost of interest bearing liabilities has been impacted by the change in deposit mix as well as by a change in market rates.  Average interest bearing deposits including repurchase agreements increased 6.4% during 2006 while average noninterest bearing deposits decreased 5.2%.  Average loans accounted for 78.5% of average earning assets in 2006 and 77.9% in 2005.

Provision for Loan Losses and Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses:
 
The provision for loan losses that was added to the allowance was $4.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2006 compared to $8.3 million for 2005.  This provision represents a charge against current earnings in order to maintain the allowance at an appropriate level determined using the accounting estimates described in the Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates section.  Loan losses, net of recoveries, for the year decreased 16.8% from $7.6 million, or 0.4% of average loans, to $6.3 million, or 0.3% of average loans.  Reflective of the improvement in asset quality, our reserve for losses on loans as a percentage of total loans outstanding at December 31, 2006 decreased to 1.27% from the 1.40% at December 31, 2005.
 
Nonperforming loans at December 31, 2006 were $14.2 million, a 33.5% decrease from $21.4 million at December 31, 2005.  Nonperforming loans as a percentage of total loans at December 31, 2006 were 0.66%, a 36 basis point decrease from December 31, 2005.

Foreclosed properties at December 31, 2006 were $4.5 million compared to $5.4 million on December 31, 2005.

Noninterest Income:

Year-to-date noninterest income decreased 2.7% to $32.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2006 from the $33.6 million for the same period last year.  Increases in recurring revenue sources year over year 2005 to 2006 in deposit related fees and trust revenue were offset by declines in gains on sales of loans due to the interest rate environment and loan related fees.

Noninterest Expense:
 
Year-to-date noninterest expense increased 2.3% from $78.6 million to $80.4 million.  The most significant components of this increase were a 3.8% increase in personnel expenses due to normal annual salary adjustments and health care costs and a 6.8% increase in occupancy and equipment due to expenditures for new branch locations and technology and communication upgrades to our core operating systems.

Our efficiency ratio for the year 2006 improved 16 basis points from 2005 to 56.67%.  The deposit (including repurchase agreements) to FTE (full-time equivalent) ratio increased to $2.5 million at December 31, 2006 from $2.4 million at December 31, 2005.

Liquidity and Market Risk
 
The objective of CTBI’s Asset/Liability management function is to maintain consistent growth in net interest income within our policy limits. This objective is accomplished through management of our consolidated balance sheet composition, liquidity, and interest rate risk exposures arising from changing economic conditions, interest rates, and customer preferences. The goal of liquidity management is to provide adequate funds to meet changes in loan and lease demand or deposit withdrawals. This is accomplished by maintaining liquid assets in the form of cash and cash equivalents and investment securities, maintaining sufficient unused borrowing capacity, and growth in core deposits. As of December 31, 2007, we had approximately $137.3 million in cash and cash equivalents and approximately $324.2 million in securities valued at estimated fair value designated as available-for-sale and available to meet liquidity needs on a continuing basis.  Additional asset-driven liquidity is provided by the remainder of the securities portfolio and the repayment of loans.  In addition to core deposit funding, we also have a variety of other short-term and long-term funding sources available.  We also rely on Federal Home Loan Bank advances for both liquidity and management of our asset/liability position.  Federal Home Loan Bank advances were $40.9 million at December 31, 2007 compared to $81.2 million at December 31, 2006.  As of December 31, 2007, we had a $398.9 million available borrowing position with the Federal Home Loan Bank.  We generally rely upon net inflows of cash from financing activities, supplemented by net inflows of cash from operating activities, to provide cash for our investing activities.  As is typical of many financial institutions, significant financing activities include deposit gathering, use of short-term borrowing facilities such as repurchase agreements and federal funds purchased, and issuance of long-term debt.  At December 31, 2007, we had a $12 million revolving line of credit, all of which is currently available to meet any future cash needs.  Our primary investing activities include purchases of securities and loan originations.  We do not rely on any one source of liquidity and manage availability in response to changing consolidated balance sheet needs.

Stock Repurchase Program
 
CTBI’s stock repurchase program began in December 1998 with the authorization to acquire up to 500,000 shares and was increased by an additional 1,000,000 shares in July 2000.  CTBI issued a press release on May 13, 2003 announcing its intention to repurchase up to 1,000,000 additional shares.  During the year 2006, we did not acquire shares of CTBI’s stock; however, during 2007, we repurchased 196,500 shares.  As of December 31, 2007, a total of 2,117,981 shares have been repurchased through this program.  The following table shows Board authorizations and repurchases made through the stock repurchase program for the years 1998 through 2007:

Interest Rate Risk
 
We consider interest rate risk one of our most significant market risks. Interest rate risk is the exposure to adverse changes in net interest income due to changes in interest rates.  Consistency of our net interest revenue is largely dependent upon the effective management of interest rate risk.  We employ a variety of measurement techniques to identify and manage our interest rate risk including the use of an earnings simulation model to analyze net interest income sensitivity to changing interest rates.  The model is based on actual cash flows and repricing characteristics for on and off-balance sheet instruments and incorporates market-based assumptions regarding the effect of changing interest rates on the prepayment rates of certain assets and liabilities.  Assumptions based on the historical behavior of deposit rates and balances in relation to changes in interest rates are also incorporated into the model.  These assumptions are inherently uncertain, and as a result, the model cannot precisely measure net interest income or precisely predict the impact of fluctuations in interest rates on net interest income.  Actual results will differ from simulated results due to timing, magnitude, and frequency of interest rate changes as well as changes in market conditions and management strategies.
 
24

 
CTBI’s Asset/Liability Management Committee (ALCO), which includes executive and senior management representatives and reports to the Board of Directors, monitors and manages interest rate risk within Board-approved policy limits.  Our current exposure to interest rate risks is determined by measuring the anticipated change in net interest income spread evenly over the twelve-month period.

The following table shows our estimated earnings sensitivity profile as of December 31, 2007:

Change in Interest Rates
(basis points)

The simulation model used the yield curve spread evenly over a twelve-month period.  The measurement at December 31, 2007 estimates that our net interest income in an up-rate environment would increase by 6.75% at a 300 basis point change, 4.58% increase at a 200 basis point change, and a 2.35% increase at a 100 basis point change.  In a down-rate environment, a 300 basis point immediate and sustained decrease in interest rates would decrease net interest income by 7.76% over one year, a 5.05% decrease at a 200 basis point change, and a 2.46% decrease at a 100 basis point change.  In order to reduce the exposure to interest rate fluctuations and to manage liquidity, we have developed sale procedures for several types of interest-sensitive assets.  Virtually all long-term, fixed rate single family residential mortgage loans underwritten according to Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation guidelines are sold for cash upon origination.  Periodically, additional assets such as commercial loans are also sold.  In 2007 and 2006, $74.6 million and $64.9 million, respectively, was realized on the sale of fixed rate residential mortgages.  We focus our efforts on consistent net interest revenue and net interest margin growth through each of the retail and wholesale business lines.  We do not currently engage in trading activities.
 
The preceding analysis was prepared using a rate ramp analysis which attempts to spread changes evenly over a specified time period as opposed to a rate shock which measures the impact of an immediate change.  Had these measurements been prepared using the rate shock method, the results would vary.
 
Our Static Repricing GAP as of December 31, 2007 is presented below.  In the 12 month repricing GAP, rate sensitive liabilities (“RSL”) exceeded rate sensitive assets (“RSA”) by $138.7 million.

Capital Resources
 
We continue to grow our shareholders’ equity while also providing an average annual dividend yield during 2007 of 4.00% to shareholders.  Shareholders’ equity increased 6.7% from December 31, 2006 to $301.4 million at December 31, 2007.  Our primary source of capital growth is retained earnings.  Cash dividends were $1.10 per share for 2007 and $1.05 per share for 2006.  We retained 54.5% of our earnings in 2007 compared to 59.5% in 2006.
 
Regulatory guidelines require bank holding companies, commercial banks, and savings banks to maintain certain minimum capital ratios and define companies as “well-capitalized” that sufficiently exceed the minimum ratios.  The banking regulators may alter minimum capital requirements as a result of revising their internal policies and their ratings of individual institutions.  To be “well-capitalized” banks and bank holding companies must maintain a Tier 1 leverage ratio of no less than 5.0%, a Tier 1 risk based ratio of no less than 6.0%, and a total risk based ratio of no less than 10.0%.  Our ratios as of December 31, 2007 were 10.32%, 13.24%, and 14.49%, respectively.  Community Trust Bancorp, Inc. and it subsidiaries met the criteria for “well-capitalized” at December 31, 2007.  See note 20 to the consolidated financial statements for further information.
 
As of December 31, 2007, we are not aware of any current recommendations by banking regulatory authorities which, if they were to be implemented, would have, or are reasonably likely to have, a material adverse impact on our liquidity, capital resources, or operations.

Impact of Inflation, Changing Prices, and Local Economic Conditions
 
The majority of our assets and liabilities are monetary in nature.  Therefore, CTBI differs greatly from most commercial and industrial companies that have significant investments in non-monetary assets, such as fixed assets and inventories.  However, inflation does have an important impact on the growth of assets in the banking industry and on the resulting need to increase equity capital at higher than normal rates in order to maintain an appropriate equity to assets ratio.  Inflation also affects other expenses, which tend to rise during periods of general inflation.
 
We believe the most significant impact on financial and operating results is our ability to react to changes in interest rates.  We seek to maintain an essentially balanced position between interest sensitive assets and liabilities in order to protect against the effects of wide interest rate fluctuations.
 
Our success is dependent on the general economic conditions of the communities we serve.  Unlike larger banks that are more geographically diversified, we provide financial and banking services primarily to eastern, northeastern, central, and south central Kentucky and southern West Virginia. The economic conditions in these areas have a significant impact on loan demand, the ability of borrowers to repay loans, and the value of the collateral securing loans.  A significant decline in general economic conditions will affect these local economic conditions and will negatively affect the financial results of our banking operations.  Factors influencing general conditions include inflation, recession, unemployment, and other factors beyond our control.

Contractual Obligations and Commitments
 
As disclosed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements, we have certain obligations and commitments to make future payments under contracts.  At December 31, 2007, the aggregate contractual obligations and commitments are:

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1.  Accounting Policies
 
Basis of Presentation – The consolidated financial statements include Community Trust Bancorp, Inc. (“CTBI”) and its subsidiaries, including its principal subsidiary, Community Trust Bank, Inc. (the “Bank”).  Intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
Nature of Operations – Substantially all assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses are related to banking operations, including lending, investing of funds, obtaining of deposits, trust operations, full service brokerage operations, and other financing activities.  All of our business offices and the majority of our business are located in eastern, northeastern, central, and south central Kentucky and southern West Virginia.
 
Use of Estimates – In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management must make certain estimates and assumptions.  These estimates and assumptions affect the amounts reported for assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, as well as affecting the disclosures provided.  Future results could differ from the current estimates.  Such estimates include, but are not limited to, the allowance for loan and lease losses, fair value of securities and mortgage servicing rights, and goodwill (the excess of cost over net assets acquired).
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents – Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, amounts due from banks, interest bearing deposits in other financial institutions, and federal funds sold.  Generally, federal funds are sold for one-day periods.

 
Investments  Management determines the classification of securities at purchase.  We classify securities into held-to-maturity, trading, or available-for-sale categories.  Held-to-maturity securities are those which we have the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity and are reported at amortized cost.  In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, investments in debt securities that are not classified as held-to-maturity and equity securities that have readily determinable fair values shall be classified in one of the following categories and measured at fair value in the statement of financial position:
 
a. Trading securities. Securities that are bought and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term (thus held for only a short period of time) shall be classified as trading securities. Trading generally reflects active and frequent buying and selling, and trading securities are generally used with the objective of generating profits on short-term differences in price.
 
b. Available-for-sale securities. Investments not classified as trading securities (nor as held-to-maturity securities) shall be classified as available-for-sale securities.
 
We do not have any securities that are classified as trading securities.  Available-for-sale securities are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses included as a separate component of shareholders’ equity, net of tax.  If declines in fair value are not temporary, the carrying value of the securities is written down to fair value as a realized loss.

      Gains or losses on disposition of securities are computed by specific identification for all securities except for shares in mutual funds, which are computed by average cost.  Interest and dividend income, adjusted by amortization of purchase premium or discount, is included in earnings.
 
Loans  Loans with the ability and the intent to be held until maturity and/or payoff are reported at the carrying value of unpaid principal reduced by unearned interest and an allowance for loan and lease losses.  Income is recorded on the level yield basis.  Interest accrual is discontinued when management believes, after considering economic and business conditions, collateral value, and collection efforts, that the borrower’s financial condition is such that collection of interest is doubtful.  Any loan greater than 90 days past due must be well secured and in the process of collection to continue accruing interest.  Cash payments received on nonaccrual loans generally are applied against principal, and interest income is only recorded once principal recovery is reasonably assured.  Loans are not reclassified as accruing until principal and interest payments are brought current and future payments appear reasonably certain.
 
Loan origination and commitment fees and certain direct loan origination costs are deferred and the net amount amortized over the estimated life of the related loans, leases, or commitments as a yield adjustment.
 
Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses  We maintain an allowance for loan and lease losses (“ALLL”) at a level that is appropriate to cover estimated credit losses on individually evaluated loans determined to be impaired, as well as estimated credit losses inherent in the remainder of the loan and lease portfolio.  Since arriving at an appropriate ALLL involves a high degree of management judgment, we use an ongoing quarterly analysis to develop a range of estimated losses.  In accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, we use our best estimate within the range of potential credit loss to determine the appropriate ALLL.  Credit losses are charged and recoveries are credited to the ALLL.
 
We utilize an internal risk grading system for commercial credits.  Those larger commercial credits that exhibit probable or observed credit weaknesses are subject to individual review.  The borrower’s cash flow, adequacy of collateral coverage, and other options available to CTBI, including legal remedies, are evaluated.  The review of individual loans includes those loans that are impaired as provided in SFAS No. 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan.  We evaluate the collectibility of both principal and interest when assessing the need for loss provision.  Historical loss rates are applied to other commercial loans not subject to specific allocations.  The loss rates are determined from a migration analysis which computes the net charge off experience on loans according to their internal risk grade.
 
Homogenous loans, such as consumer installment, residential mortgages, and home equity lines are not individually risk graded.  The associated ALLL for these loans is measured under SFAS No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies.  The ALLL allocation for these pools of loans is established based on the average, maximum, minimum, and median loss ratios over the previous eight quarters.
 
Historical loss rates for commercial and retail loans are adjusted for significant factors that, in management’s judgment, reflect the impact of any current conditions on loss recognition.  Factors that we consider include delinquency trends, current economic conditions and trends, strength of supervision and administration of the loan portfolio, levels of underperforming loans, level of recoveries to prior year's charge offs, trend in loan losses, industry concentrations and their relative strengths, amount of unsecured loans and underwriting exceptions.  These factors are reviewed quarterly and a weighted range developed with a “most likely” scenario determined.  The total of each of these weighted factors is then applied against the applicable portion of the portfolio and the ALLL is adjusted accordingly.
 
31

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

Premises and Equipment – Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization.  Capital leases are included in premises and equipment at the capitalized amount less accumulated amortization.  Premises and equipment are evaluated for impairment on a quarterly basis.
 
Depreciation and amortization are computed primarily using the straight-line method.  Estimated useful lives range up to 40 years for buildings, 2 to 10 years for furniture, fixtures, and equipment, and up to the lease term for leasehold improvements.  Capitalized leased assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the lives of the respective leases.
 
Other Real Estate – Real estate acquired by foreclosure is carried at the lower of the investment in the property or its fair value.  Other real estate owned by CTBI included in other assets at December 31, 2007 and 2006 was $7.9 million and $4.5 million, respectively.
 
Goodwill and Core Deposit Intangible  We evaluate total goodwill and core deposit intangible for impairment, based upon SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets and SFAS No. 147, Acquisitions of Certain Financial Institutions, using fair value techniques including multiples of price/equity.  Goodwill and core deposit intangible are evaluated for impairment on an annual basis or as other events may warrant.

Amortization of core deposit intangible is estimated at approximately $0.6 million annually for the next two years, approximately $0.4 million in year three, and approximately $0.1 million in years four and five.

                Income Taxes – Income tax expense is based on the taxes due on the consolidated tax return plus deferred taxes based on the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates.
 
Earnings Per Share (“EPS”) – Basic EPS is calculated by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.
 
Diluted EPS adjusts the number of weighted average shares of common stock outstanding by the dilutive effect of stock options as prescribed in SFAS No. 123R which is discussed in the New Accounting Standards section below.
 
Segments – Management analyzes the operation of CTBI assuming one operating segment, community banking services.  CTBI, through its operating subsidiaries, offers a wide range of consumer and commercial community banking services.  These services include: (i) residential and commercial real estate loans; (ii) checking accounts; (iii) regular and term savings accounts and savings certificates; (iv) full service securities brokerage services; (v) consumer loans; (vi) debit cards; (vii) annuity and life insurance products; (viii) Individual Retirement Accounts and Keogh plans; (ix) commercial loans; (x) trust services; and (xi) commercial demand deposit accounts.
 
Bank Owned Life Insurance – CTBI's bank owned life insurance policies are carried at their cash surrender value.  We recognize tax-free income from the periodic increases in cash surrender value of these policies and from death benefits.
 
Mortgage Servicing Rights – Mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”) are carried at fair market value with the implementation of SFAS 156 in January 2007.  The fair value is determined quarterly based on an independent third-party valuation using a discounted cash flow analysis and calculated using a computer pricing model.  The computer valuation is based on key economic assumptions including the prepayment speeds of the underlying loans, the weighted-average life of the loan, the discount rate, the weighted-average coupon, and the weighted-average default rate, as applicable.  MSRs are a component of other assets.  Along with the gains received from the sale of loans, fees are received for servicing loans.  These fees include late fees, which are recorded in interest income, and ancillary fees and monthly servicing fees, which are recorded in noninterest income.  Costs of servicing loans are charged to expense as incurred.  Changes in fair market value of the MSRs are reported as an increase or decrease to mortgage banking income.

New Accounting Standards

Ø Stock-Based Employee Compensation – Effective January 1, 2006, CTBI adopted SFAS No. 123(R) using the modified retrospective application basis in accounting for stock-based compensation plans.  Under SFAS No. 123(R), CTBI recognizes compensation expense for the grant-date fair value of stock-based compensation issued over its requisite service period.  Awards with a graded vesting are expensed on a straight-line basis.  The grant-date fair value of stock options is measured using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.  Had compensation cost for CTBI’s stock options granted in 2005 been determined under the fair value approach described in SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, CTBI’s net income and earnings per share would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts indicated below:

Ø Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Interpretation No. 48 (“FIN 48”), Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - An Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109.  FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes.  This statement also prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.  FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.  The evaluation of a tax position in accordance with this statement is a two-step process.  The first step is a recognition process to determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position.  The second step is a measurement process whereby a tax position that meets the more likely than not recognition threshold is calculated to determine the amount of benefit to recognize in the financial statements.  FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006.  CTBI adopted the provisions of FIN 48 on January 1, 2007.  The cumulative effect of applying the provisions of this statement was recognized as a $0.6 million adjustment to the beginning balance of retained earnings.  An additional $28 thousand increase to the FIN 48 liability was charged to current income tax expense during the quarter ended March 31, 2007.  The FIN 48 liability is carried in other liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2007.  Approximately $0.2 million in FIN 48 liability is relative to state nexus issues.  As of September 30, 2007, we reported resolution of these issues would be completed by March 2008.  However, due to ongoing negotiations with the jurisdiction involved, we now anticipate the filing of these returns by December 31, 2008.  CTBI is subject to taxation in the United States and various state and local jurisdictions.  For federal tax purposes, CTBI’s tax years for 2004 through 2007 are subject to examination by the tax authorities.  For state and local tax purposes, CTBI’s tax years for 2003 through 2007 are subject to examination by the tax authorities.  CTBI currently recognizes interest and penalties accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense.
 
Ø Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets – SFAS No. 156, Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets amends SFAS No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities – a replacement of SFAS No. 125, by requiring, in certain situations, an entity to recognize a servicing asset or servicing liability each time it undertakes an obligation to service a financial asset by entering into a servicing contract.  All separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities are required to be initially measured at fair value.  Subsequent measurement methods include the amortization method, whereby servicing assets or servicing liabilities are amortized in proportion to and over the period of estimated net servicing income or net servicing loss or the fair value method, whereby servicing assets or servicing liabilities are measured at fair value at each reporting date and changes in fair value are reported in earnings in the period in which they occur.  If the amortization method is used, an entity must assess servicing assets or servicing liabilities for impairment or increased obligation based on the fair value at each reporting date.  Adoption of SFAS 156 on January 1, 2007 did not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Ø Fair Value Measurements – In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, which provides guidance on how to measure assets and liabilities that use fair value.  SFAS 157 will apply whenever another generally accepted accounting principle standard requires (or permits) assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value but does not expand the use of fair value to any new circumstances.  This statement also will require additional disclosures in both annual and quarterly reports.  SFAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and was adopted by CTBI beginning the first quarter of 2008.  This statement will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Ø Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities – In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, which permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value.  The objective is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities using different measurement techniques.  SFAS 159 requires additional disclosures related to the fair value measurements included in the entity's financial statements.  This statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after Nov. 15, 2007.  Accordingly, CTBI adopted SFAS 159 in the first quarter of 2008.  This statement will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Ø Accounting for Income Tax Benefits of Dividends on Share-Based Payment Awards – On June 14, 2007, the Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) reached a final consensus on Issue No. 06-11, Accounting for Income Tax Benefits of Dividends on Share-Based Payment Awards.  This consensus was ratified by FASB on June 27, 2007.  This issue states that tax benefits received on dividends paid to employees associated with their unvested stock compensation awards should be recorded in additional paid-in capital (“APIC”) for awards expected to vest.  Currently, such dividends are accounted for as a permanent tax deduction reducing the annual effective income tax rate.  This issue is to be applied prospectively to dividends declared in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007.  Retrospective application of this Issue is prohibited.  Issue No. 06-11 will not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
 
Ø Business Combinations (Revised 2007) The FASB recently issued SFAS No. 141(R), which replaces FAS 141, Business Combinations, and applies to all transactions and other events in which one entity obtains control over one or more other businesses.  SFAS 141R requires an acquirer, upon initially obtaining control of another entity, to recognize the assets, liabilities, and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree at fair value as of the acquisition date.  Contingent consideration is required to be recognized and measured at fair value on the date of acquisition rather than at a later date when the amount of that consideration may be determinable beyond a reasonable doubt.  This fair value approach replaces the cost-allocation process required under SFAS 141 whereby the cost of an acquisition was allocated to the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair value.  SFAS 141R requires acquirers to expense acquisition-related costs as incurred rather than allocating such costs to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as was previously the case under SFAS 141.  Under SFAS 141R, the requirements of SFAS 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities, would have to be met in order to accrue for a restructuring plan in purchase accounting.  Pre-acquisition contingencies are to be recognized at fair value, unless it is a non-contractual contingency that is not likely to materialize, in which case, nothing should be recognized in purchase accounting, and instead, that contingency would be subject to the probable and estimable recognition criteria of SFAS 5, Accounting for Contingencies.  SFAS 141R is expected to have a significant impact on our accounting for business combinations closing on or after January 1, 2009.

Ø Accounting for Deferred Compensation and Postretirement Benefit Aspects of Endorsement Split Dollar Life Insurance Arrangements EITF Issue No. 06-4, Accounting for Deferred Compensation and Postretirement Benefit Aspects of Endorsement Split Dollar Life Insurance Arrangements requires the recognition of a liability and related compensation expense for endorsement split-dollar life insurance policies that provide a benefit to an employee that extends to post-retirement periods.  Under EITF 06-4, life insurance policies purchased for the purpose of providing such benefits do not effectively settle an entity’s obligation to the employee.  Accordingly, the entity must recognize a liability and related compensation expense during the employee’s active service period based on the future cost of insurance to be incurred during the employee’s retirement.  If the entity has agreed to provide the employee with a death benefit, then the liability for the future death benefit should be recognized by following the guidance in SFAS 106, Employer’s Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions.  CTBI adopted EITF 06-4 effective as of January 1, 2008 as a change in accounting principle through a $1.8 million cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings.

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

2.  Business Combinations
 
On June 10, 2005, Community Trust Bank, Inc., the bank subsidiary of Community Trust Bancorp, Inc., completed the acquisition of Heritage Community Bank of Danville, Kentucky.  All former Heritage Community Bank offices now operate as branch offices of Community Trust Bank, Inc.  Through this acquisition, we obtained loans totaling approximately $73.7 million, cash and cash equivalents of approximately $8.1 million, and deposits totaling approximately $69.8 million from this acquisition.  The total cost of the acquisition, including direct acquisition costs, was $12.4 million.  Goodwill and core deposit intangible of approximately $5.5 million was recorded.  Pro forma information has not been presented since the impact of the acquisition is not significant to the consolidated financial statements.

3.  Cash and Due from Banks
 
Included in cash and due from banks are noninterest bearing deposits that are required to be held at the Federal Reserve or maintained in vault cash in accordance with regulatory reserve requirements.  The balance requirements were $38.6 million and $37.8 million at December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.  Cash paid during the years ended 2007, 2006, and 2005 for interest was $91.2 million, $79.6 million, and $55.1 million, respectively.  Cash paid during the same periods for income taxes was $12.5 million, $12.7 million and $13.1 million, respectively.

Not included in the loan balances above were loans held for sale in the amount of $2.3 million and $1.4 million at December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.  The amount of capitalized fees and costs under SFAS 91, Accounting for Nonrefundable Fees and Costs Associated with Originating or Acquiring Loans and Initial Direct Costs of Leases, included in the above loan totals were $2.0 million and $1.5 million at December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
 
The amount of loans on a non-accruing income status was $22.2 million, $9.9 million, and $12.2 million at December 31, 2007, December 31, 2006, and December 31, 2005, respectively.  The total of loans on nonaccrual that were in homogeneous pools and not evaluated individually for impairment were $3.4 million,  $2.6 million, and $4.1 million at December 31, 2007, December 31, 2006, and December 31, 2005, respectively.  Additional interest which would have been recorded during 2007, 2006, and 2005 if such loans had been accruing interest was approximately $2.3 million, $1.0 million, and $1.3 million, respectively.  Any loan greater than 90 days past due must be well secured and in the process of collection to continue accruing interest.  The amount of loans 90 days past due and still accruing interest was $9.6 million, $4.3 million, and $8.3 million at December 31, 2007, December 31, 2006, and December 31, 2005, respectively.

           At December 31, 2007, 2006, and 2005, the recorded investment in impaired loans was $13.2 million, $7.3 million, and $8.1 million, respectively.  Included in these amounts at December 31, 2007, 2006, and 2005, respectively, were $8.1 million, $4.4 million, and $5.1 million of impaired loans for which specific reserves for loan losses were carried in the amounts of $3.2 million, $1.5 million, and $2.3 million.  The average investment in impaired loans for 2007, 2006, and 2005 was $13.3 million, $7.4 million, and $9.0 million, respectively, while interest income of $0.3 million, $0.2 million, and $0.1 million was recognized on cash payments of $11.0 million, $0.9 million, and $1.6 million.  Of the cash payments received in 2007, $10.2 million was related to receivable payments on one revolving line of credit that was placed on nonaccrual in 2007.

6.  Mortgage Banking Activities
 
Mortgage banking activities primarily include residential mortgage originations and servicing.  As discussed in note 1 above, mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”) are carried at fair market value with the implementation of SFAS 156 in January 2007.  The cumulative effect of applying the provisions of this statement was recognized as a $26 thousand adjustment to the beginning balance of retained earnings.  The fair value is determined quarterly based on an independent third-party valuation using a discounted cash flow analysis and calculated using a computer pricing model.  The computer valuation is based on key economic assumptions including the prepayment speeds of the underlying loans, the weighted-average life of the loan, the discount rate, the weighted-average coupon, and the weighted-average default rate, as applicable.  MSRs are a component of other assets.  Along with the gains received from the sale of loans, fees are received for servicing loans.  These fees include late fees, which are recorded in interest income, and ancillary fees and monthly servicing fees, which are recorded in noninterest income.  Costs of servicing loans are charged to expense as incurred.  Changes in fair market value of the MSRs are reported as an increase or decrease to mortgage banking income.

The following table presents the components of mortgage banking income:

Mortgage loans serviced for others are not included in the accompanying balance sheets.  At December 31, 2007, 2006, and 2005, loans serviced for the benefit of others (primarily FHLMC) totaled $351 million, $362 million, and $372 million, respectively.  Servicing loans for others generally consists of collecting mortgage payments, maintaining escrow accounts, disbursing payments to investors, and processing foreclosures.  Custodial escrow balances maintained in connection with the foregoing loan servicing, and included in demand deposits, were approximately $539 thousand, $480 thousand, and $510 thousand at December 31, 2007, 2006, and 2005, respectively.

The fair values of capitalized mortgage servicing rights were $3.3 million, $3.4 million, and $3.9 million at December 31, 2007, 2006, and 2005, respectively.  Fair values for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006, and 2005 were determined by third-party valuations using discount rates of 10.10%, 10.61%, and 9.14%, respectively, and weighted average default rates of 1.6%, 1.3%, and 1.1%, respectively.  The prepayment speeds applied in 2007 were generated by the Andrew Davidson Prepayment Model.  The speeds ranged from 7.1% to 26.4%, depending on the stratifications of the specific rights.  In 2006 and 2005, Bloomberg PSA speeds ranged from 135% to 389%, and 130% to 327%, depending on the stratifications of the specific rights.  MSR values are very sensitive to movement in interest rates as expected future net servicing income depends on the projected balance of the underlying loans, which can be greatly impacted by the level of prepayments.  CTBI does not currently hedge against changes in the fair value of its MSR portfolio.

7.  Related Party Transactions
 
In the ordinary course of business, our banking subsidiary has made extensions of credit and had transactions with certain directors and executive officers of CTBI or our subsidiaries, including their associates (as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission).  We believe such extensions of credit and transactions were made on substantially the same terms, including interest rate and collateral, as those prevailing at the same time for comparable transactions with other persons.  The aggregate amount of related party extensions of credit at January 1, 2007 was $24.4 million.  During 2007, activity with respect to these extensions of credit included new loans of $1.1 million and repayment of $5.4 million.  As a result of these activities, the aggregate balance of related party extensions of credit was $20.1 million at December 31, 2007.  The aggregate balances of related party deposits at December 31, 2007 and 2006 were $22.2 million and $28.5 million, respectively.

CTBI adopted the provisions of FIN 48 on January 1, 2007.  The cumulative effect of applying the provisions of this statement was recognized as a $0.6 million adjustment to the beginning balance of retained earnings.  The FIN 48 liability is carried in other liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2007.  Approximately $0.2 million in FIN 48 liability is relative to state nexus issues.  As of September 30, 2007, we reported resolution of these issues would be completed by March 2008.  However, due to ongoing negotiations with the jurisdiction involved, we now anticipate the filing of these returns by December 31, 2008.  CTBI is subject to taxation in the United States and various state and local jurisdictions.  For federal tax purposes, CTBI’s tax years for 2004 through 2007 are subject to examination by the tax authorities.  For state and local tax purposes, CTBI’s tax years for 2003 through 2007 are subject to examination by the tax authorities.  CTBI currently recognizes interest and penalties accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense.

14.  Employee Benefits

On January 1, 2007, CTBI amended its KSOP Retirement Plan, creating a separate 401(k) Plan and a separate Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”).
 
The 401(k) Plan is available to all employees (age 21 and over) with one year of service and who work at least 1,000 hours per year.  Participants in the plan have the option to contribute from 1% to 15% of their annual compensation.  CTBI matches 50% of participant contributions up to 4% of gross pay. CTBI may at its discretion, contribute an additional percentage of covered employees’ compensation.  CTBI’s matching contributions were $1.3 million, $1.2 million, and $1.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006, and 2005 respectfully.  The 401(k) Plan owned 569,755, 520,970, and 540,534 shares of CTBI’s common stock at December 31, 2007, 2006, and 2005, respectfully.  Substantially all shares owned by the 401(k) were allocated to employee accounts on those dates. The market price of the shares at the date of allocation is essentially the same as the market price at the date of purchase.
 
The ESOP Plan has the same entrance requirements as the 401(k) Plan above.  CTBI currently contributes 4% of covered employees’ gross compensation to the ESOP.  The ESOP uses the contributions to acquire shares of CTBI’s common stock.  CTBI’s contributions to the ESOP were $0.9 million, $0.9 million, and $0.8 million for the years ending December 31, 2007, 2006, and 2005, respectfully.  The ESOP owned 525,938, 553,758, and 564,859 shares of CTBI’s common stock at December 31, 2007, 2006, and 2005, respectively.  Substantially all shares owned by the ESOP were allocated to employee accounts on those dates.  The market price of the shares at the date of allocation is essentially the same as the market price at the date of purchase.

Stock-Based Compensation:
 
We currently maintain one active and one inactive incentive stock ownership plan covering key employees.  The 2006 Stock Ownership Incentive Plan (“2006 Plan”) was approved by the Board of Directors and our Shareholders in 2006.  The 1998 Stock Option Plan (“1998 Plan”) was approved by the Board of Directors and the Shareholders in 1998.  The 1998 Plan was rendered inactive as of April 26, 2006.  As of December 31, 2007, the 1998 Plan had 1,046,831 shares authorized, 151,311 of which were transferred to the 2006 Plan.  The 1989 Stock Option Plan (“1989 Plan”) was approved by the Board of Directors in 1989.  The 1989 Plan was inactive during 2007 and the remaining outstanding shares were exercised during 2007.  The 1989 Plan is now terminated.  The following table provides detail of the number of shares to be issued upon exercise of outstanding stock-based awards and remaining shares available for future issuance under all of CTBI’s equity compensation plans as of December 31, 2007:

CTBI uses the following assumptions, which are evaluated and revised as necessary, in estimating the grant-date fair value of each option grant for the year end:

   
2007
 
2006
 
2005
Expected option life (in years)
    7.5       7.5       6.5  
Expected volatility
    0.335       0.364       0.960  
Expected Dividend yield
    2.77 %     3.21 %     3.11 %
Risk-free interest rate
    4.81 %     4.53 %     3.92 %
 
For 2007 and 2006, the expected option life is derived from the “safe-harbor” rules for estimating option life in SFAS 123(R).  For 2005, the expected option life was derived from historical exercise patterns and expected life.  The expected volatility is based on historical volatility of the stock using a historical look back that approximates the expected life of the option grant.  The interest rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grant.  CTBI’s stock-based compensation expense for the years 2007 and 2006 was $0.6 million and $0.7 million, respectfully.

16.  Fair Market Value of Financial Instruments

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

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

Securities – Fair values are based on quoted market prices or dealer quotes.
 
Loans (net of the allowance for loan and lease losses) – The fair value of fixed rate loans and variable rate mortgage loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities.  For other variable rate loans, the carrying amount approximates fair value.

Loans Held for Sale – The fair value is predetermined based on sale price.

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

Accrued Interest Receivable – The carrying amount approximates fair value.

Capitalized Mortgage Servicing Rights – The fair value is obtained by use of an independent third party.

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

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

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

Accrued Interest Payable – The carrying amount approximates fair value.
 
Other Financial Instruments – The estimated fair value for other financial instruments and off-balance sheet loan commitments approximates cost at December 31, 2007 and 2006.  Off-balance sheet loan commitments at December 31, 2007 and 2006 were $445.6 million and $478.9 million, respectively.
 
Commitments to Extend Credit – The fair value of commitments to extend credit is based upon the difference between the interest rate at which we are committed to make the loans and the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities, adjusted for the estimated volume of loan commitments actually expected to close.  The fair value of such commitments is not material.

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

At December 31, the Bank had the following off-balance sheet financial instruments, whose approximate contract amounts represent additional credit risk to CTBI:

(in thousands)
 
2007
   
2006
 
Standby letters of credit
  $ 57,241     $ 54,823  
Commitments to extend credit
    388,404       424,034  
Total
  $ 445,645     $ 478,857  
 
Standby letters of credit represent conditional commitments to guarantee the performance of a third party.  The credit risk involved is essentially the same as the risk involved in making loans.  At December 31, 2007, we maintained a credit loss reserve of approximately $6 thousand relating to these financial standby letters of credit.  The reserve coverage calculation was determined using essentially the same methodology as used for the allowance for loan and lease losses.  Approximately 91% of the total standby letters of credit are secured, with $44.9 million of the total $57.2 million secured by cash.  Collateral for the remaining secured standby letters of credit varies but is comprised primarily of accounts receivable, inventory, property, equipment, and income-producing properties.
 
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of the contract.  Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee.  The Bank evaluates each customer’s credit-worthiness on a case-by-case basis.  Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.  A portion of the commitments is to extend credit at fixed rates.  Fixed rate loan commitments at December 31, 2007 of $24.0 million had interest rates and terms ranging predominantly from 6.00% to 7.99% and 6 months to 1 year, respectively.  These credit commitments were based on prevailing rates, terms, and conditions applicable to other loans being made at December 31, 2007.

18.  Concentrations of Credit Risk
 
CTBI’s banking subsidiary grants commercial, residential, and consumer loans to customers primarily located in eastern, northeastern, central, and south central Kentucky, northeastern Tennessee and southern West Virginia.  The Bank is continuing to manage all components of its portfolio mix in a manner to reduce risk from changes in economic conditions. Concentrations of credit, as defined for regulatory purposes, are reviewed quarterly by management to ensure that internally established limits based on Tier 1 Capital plus the allowance for loan and lease losses are not exceeded.  At December 31, 2007 and 2006, our concentrations of hotel/motel industry credits were 40% and 43% of Tier 1 Capital plus the allowance for loan and lease losses, respectively.    Lessors of residential buildings and dwellings credits at December 31, 2007 and 2006 were 30% and 28% of Tier 1 Capital plus the allowance for loan and lease losses, respectively.  Single family construction credits at December 31, 2007 and 2006 based on established limits were 26% and 25% of Tier 1 Capital plus the allowance for loan and lease losses, respectively.  Floorplan credits at December 31, 2007 and 2006 were 23% and 22% of Tier 1 Capital plus the allowance for loan and lease losses, respectively.  Coal mining and related support industries credits at December 31, 2007 and 2006 were 22% and 33% of Tier 1 Capital plus the allowance for loan and lease losses, respectively.  These percentages are within our internally established limits regarding concentrations of credit.

19.  Commitments and Contingencies
 
CTBI and our subsidiaries, and from time to time, our officers, are named defendants in legal actions arising from ordinary business activities.  Management, after consultation with legal counsel, believes any pending actions are without merit or that the ultimate liability, if any, will not materially affect our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

20.  Regulatory Matters
 
Our principal source of funds is dividends received from our subsidiary bank.  Regulations limit the amount of dividends that may be paid by our banking subsidiary without prior approval.  During 2008, approximately $44.1 million plus any 2008 net profits can be paid by our banking subsidiary without prior regulatory approval.
 
The Federal Reserve Bank adopted quantitative measures which assign risk weightings to assets and off-balance sheet items and also define and set minimum regulatory capital requirements (risk based capital ratios).  All banks are required to have a minimum Tier 1 (core capital) leverage ratio of 4% of adjusted quarterly average assets, Tier 1 capital of at least 4% of risk-weighted assets, and total capital of at least 8% of risk-weighted assets.  Tier 1 capital consists principally of shareholders’ equity including capital-qualifying subordinated debt but excluding unrealized gains and losses on securities available-for-sale, less goodwill and certain other intangibles.  Total capital consists of Tier 1 capital plus certain debt instruments and the reserve for credit losses, subject to limitation.  Failure to meet certain capital requirements can initiate certain actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on our consolidated financial statements.  The regulations also define well-capitalized levels of Tier 1 leverage, Tier 1, and total capital as 5%, 6%, and 10%, respectively.  We had Tier 1 leverage, Tier 1, and total capital ratios above the well-capitalized levels at December 31, 2007 and 2006.  We believe, as of December 31, 2007, CTBI meets all capital adequacy requirements for which it is subject to be defined as well-capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action.

Under the current Federal Reserve Board’s regulatory framework, certain capital securities offered by wholly owned unconsolidated trust preferred entities of CTBI are included as Tier 1 regulatory capital.  On March 1, 2005, the Federal Reserve Board adopted a final rule that allows the continued limited inclusion of trust preferred securities in the Tier 1 capital of bank holding companies (“BHCs”).  Under the final rule, trust preferred securities and other restricted core capital elements are subject to stricter quantitative limits.  The Board's final rule limits restricted core capital elements to 25 percent of all core capital elements, net of goodwill less any associated deferred tax liability.  Internationally active BHCs, defined as those with consolidated assets greater than $250 billion or on-balance sheet foreign exposure greater than $10 billion, are subject to a 15 percent limit, but they may include qualifying mandatory convertible preferred securities up to the generally applicable 25 percent limit.  Amounts of restricted core capital elements in excess of these limits generally may be included in Tier 2 capital.  The final rule provides a five-year transition period, ending March 31, 2009, for application of the quantitative limits.  The requirement for trust preferred securities to include a call option has been eliminated, and standards for the junior subordinated debt underlying trust preferred securities eligible for Tier 1 capital treatment have been clarified.  The final rule addresses supervisory concerns, competitive equity considerations, and the accounting for trust preferred securities. The final rule also strengthens the definition of regulatory capital by incorporating longstanding Board policies regarding the acceptable terms of capital instruments included in banking organizations' Tier 1 or Tier 2 capital.  The final rule did not have a material impact on our regulatory ratios.

At December 31, 2007, 107,595 stock options at a price of $38.95 were outstanding and were not used in the computation of diluted earnings per share because their exercise price was greater than the average market value of the common stock.  At December 31, 2006 and 2005, all outstanding stock options were used in the computation of diluted earnings per share.

24.  FDIC One-Time Assessment Credit
 
Effective November 17, 2006, the FDIC implemented a one-time credit of $4.7 billion to eligible institutions.  The purpose of the credit is to recognize contributions made by certain institutions to capitalize the Bank Insurance Fund and Savings Association Insurance Fund, which have now been merged into the Deposit Insurance Fund.  The Bank is an eligible institution and received notice from the FDIC that its share of the credit is approximately $2.2 million.  As of December 31, 2007, approximately $1.2 million remains as a contingent future credit against future insurance assessment payments.  We anticipate the credit to be fully absorbed during the fourth quarter 2008 and any remaining expense to be minimal.

(Company) as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the two years ended December 31, 2007.  The Company’s management is responsible for these financial statements.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).   Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  Our audits included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the two years ended December 31, 2007, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the Unites States of America.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated March 3, 2008, expressed an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Audit Committee, Board of Directors and Shareholders
Community Trust Bancorp, Inc.
Pikeville, Kentucky

We have audited Community Trust Bancorp, Inc.’s (Company) internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.  The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying management report on internal control.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.  Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk.  Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances.  We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.  A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company, (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.  Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.  Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated financial statements of the Company and our report dated March 3, 2008, expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

Item 9.  Changes in and Disagreements With Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure
 
The Audit Committee of Community Trust Bancorp, Inc. announced on May 15, 2006 that it engaged BKD, LLP to serve as CTBI's new independent registered certified public accountants.  Deloitte & Touche, LLP (“Deloitte”) resigned as CTBI's independent registered public accounting firm.  The Audit Committee accepted Deloitte’s resignation.
 
The reports of Deloitte on our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2005 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and was not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principle.


Item 9A.  Controls and Procedures
 
CTBI's management is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective disclosure controls and procedures, as defined under Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.  As of December 31, 2007, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Executive Vice President/Treasurer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of CTBI's disclosure controls and procedures.  Based on that evaluation, management concluded that disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2007 were effective in ensuring material information required to be disclosed in this annual report on Form 10-K was recorded, processed, summarized, and reported on a timely basis.  Additionally, there were no changes in CTBI's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the year ended December 31, 2007 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, CTBI's internal control over financial reporting.

Management's responsibilities related to establishing and maintaining effective disclosure controls and procedures include maintaining effective internal controls over financial reporting that are designed to produce reliable financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.  There have been no significant changes in CTBI's internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to December 31, 2007.
 
MANAGEMENT REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL
 
We, as management of Community Trust Bancorp, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“CTBI”), are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting.  Pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the company’s principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the company’s board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:

·  
Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company;

·  
Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and

·  
Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
 
All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention of overriding controls.  Accordingly, even effective internal control can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation.  Further, because of changes in conditions, the effectiveness of internal control may vary over time.
 
Because of the inherent limitations, any system of internal control over financial reporting, no matter how well designed, may not prevent or detect misstatements due to the possibility that a control can be circumvented or overridden or that misstatements due to error or fraud may occur that are not detected.  Also, projections of the effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that the internal controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies and procedures included in such controls may deteriorate.
 
Management has evaluated the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007 based on the control criteria established in a report entitled Internal Control—Integrated Framework, issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on such evaluation, we have concluded that CTBI’s internal control over financial reporting is effective as of December 31, 2007.

The effectiveness of CTBI’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007 has been audited by BKD, LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm that audited the CTBI’s consolidated financial statements included in this annual report.
