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, 2008, 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, 2008, CTBI had total consolidated assets of $3.0 billion and total consolidated deposits, including repurchase agreements, of $2.5 billion, making it the 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, trust, and brokerage relationships 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.

Recently, the United States and global markets, as well as general economic conditions, have been disrupted and volatile. Some financial institutions have failed and others have been forced to seek acquisition partners. Larger financial institutions, some of whom may benefit from partial nationalization, could strengthen their competitive position as a result of ongoing consolidation within the financial services industry.

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 17 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, 2008, CTBI and subsidiaries had 986 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 Department 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.

In response to global credit and liquidity issues involving a number of financial institutions, the United States government, particularly the United States Department of the Treasury and the FDIC, have taken a variety of extraordinary measures designed to restore confidence in the financial markets and to strengthen financial institutions, including capital injections, guarantees of bank liabilities and the acquisition of illiquid assets from banks.

On October 3, 2008, the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 (the “EESA”) was signed into law. Pursuant to the EESA, the United States Treasury was granted the authority to take a range of actions for the purpose of stabilizing and providing liquidity to the U.S. financial markets and has proposed several programs, including the purchase by the U.S. Treasury of certain troubled assets from financial institutions (the “Troubled Asset Relief Program”) and the direct purchase by the U.S. Treasury of equity of financial institutions (the “Capital Purchase Program”).

CTBI announced on January 16, 2009, that it had elected not to participate in the United States Treasury Department’s Capital Purchase Program. The Capital Purchase Program is a voluntary program designed to help financial institutions build capital to support the United States economy. CTBI currently maintains a capital level significantly exceeding regulatory guidelines for a well-capitalized institution and is able to meet the lending needs of our customers.

On October 14, 2008, the FDIC announced a new program, the Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program, that provides unlimited deposit insurance on funds in noninterest bearing transaction deposit accounts not otherwise covered by the existing deposit insurance limit of $250,000, as well as a 100% guarantee of the senior debt of FDIC insured institutions and their holding companies. All eligible institutions were covered under this program during an initial 30-day period without incurring costs. After the 30-day period, participating institutions have been assessed a charge of 10 basis points per annum for the additional insured deposits and a charge of 75 basis points per annum for guaranteed senior unsecured debt. CTBI elected to participate in the unlimited deposit insurance for noninterest bearing accounts beyond the initial 30-day period and opted out of the coverage of senior unsecured debt.

On February 27, 2009, the FDIC announced a special assessment on insured institutions, implemented changes to the risk-based assessment system, and set FDIC insurance assessment rates beginning the second quarter of 2009. Under the deposit insurance restoration plan approved by the FDIC in October 2008, the Board set a rate schedule to raise the insurance reserve ratio to 1.15 percent within five years. On February 27, 2009, the FDIC announced that the restoration plan horizon has been extended to seven years in light of the current significant strains on banks and the financial system and the likelihood of a severe recession. Also, the FDIC will collect a special assessment of up to 20 basis points on September 30, 2009. The FDIC will also be permitted to impose an emergency special assessment after June 30, 2009 of up to 10 basis points if the FDIC deems that such action is necessary to maintain public confidence in federal deposit insurance. Changes to the assessment system include higher rates for institutions that rely significantly on secured liabilities. In addition, higher rates will be imposed on institutions that rely significantly on brokered deposits, but only when accompanied by rapid growth. The final rule will provide incentives in the form of a reduction in assessment rates for institutions holding long-term unsecured debt.

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.

Economic Risk

CTBI may continue to be adversely affected by current economic and market conditions.

The national and global economic downturn has recently resulted in unprecedented levels of financial market volatility and has in general adversely impacted the market value of financial institutions, limited access to capital and had an adverse effect on the financial condition or results of operations of banking companies in general, including CTBI. In some cases, the markets have produced downward pressure on stock prices and credit capacity for certain issuers without regard to those issuers’ underlying financial strength. During this time, CTBI has experienced challenges, credit quality has deteriorated and net income and results of operations have been adversely impacted. Although CTBI operated at a profit last year, CTBI is a part of the financial system and a continuation of the systemic lack of available credit, lack of confidence in the financial sector, increased volatility in the financial markets, and reduced business activity could materially and adversely impact CTBI’s business, financial condition, and results of operations. In addition, the possible duration and severity of the adverse economic cycle is unknown and may exacerbate financial service providers’, including CTBI’s, exposure to credit risk. Actions by Congress, Treasury, the FDIC and other governmental agencies and regulators have been initiated to address economic stabilization, yet the efficacy of these programs in stabilizing the economy and the banking system is uncertain. There can be no assurance that these actions will not have an adverse effect on the financial position or results of operations of financial service providers including CTBI.

Economy of Our Markets

Our business may continue to 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. These regions have recently experienced an increase in unemployment and a decrease in real estate values. Further increases in unemployment, additional decreases 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.

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.

Federal Deposit Insurance Increases

Our results of operations may be adversely impacted by increased FDIC insurance assessments.

As a result of the weakness of certain financial institutions, the FDIC has taken action that will result in increased FDIC insurance assessments for United States FDIC-insured financial institutions, including CTBI. Under the deposit insurance restoration plan approved by the FDIC in October 2008, the Board set a rate schedule to raise the insurance reserve ratio to 1.15 percent within five years. On February 27, 2009, the FDIC announced that the restoration plan horizon has been extended to seven years in light of the current significant strains on banks and the financial system and the likelihood of a severe recession. In addition, the FDIC announced a special assessment of up to 20 basis points to be collected on September 30, 2009. The FDIC may also impose an emergency special assessment after June 30, 2009 of up to 10 basis points if the FDIC deems that an additional special assessment is necessary to maintain public confidence in federal deposit insurance. The special assessment of up to 20 basis points, the increase in regular quarterly assessments, and a possible 10 basis point emergency assessment will significantly increase insurance assessments for FDIC-insured institutions in general, including CTBI.

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. In particular, there is no assurance that recent governmental actions designed to stabilize the economy and banking system will not adversely affect the financial position or results of operations of CTBI.

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:

·	The length and severity of downturns in the local economies in which we operate or the national economy;

·	The length and severity of downturns in one or more of the business sectors in which our customers operate, particularly the automobile, hotel/motel, coal, and residential development industries; 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, result in restructurings and collection of less than the full amounts due to CTBI, 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. The recent economic crisis is likely to result in increased consolidation in the financial industry and larger financial institutions, some of whom may benefit from partial nationalization, may strengthen their competitive positions. 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.

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, the International Money Laundering Abatement and Anti-Terrorist Financing Act, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act 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.

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. The recent financial crisis has resulted in a lack of investor confidence in the financial institutions sector. 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.

Counterparty Risk

The soundness of other financial institutions could adversely affect CTBI.

Our ability to engage in routine funding transactions could be adversely affected by the actions and commercial soundness of other financial institutions. Financial services companies are interrelated as a result of trading, clearing, counterparty, or other relationships. We have exposure to many different industries and counterparties, and we routinely execute transactions with counterparties in the financial services industry, including brokers and dealers, commercial banks, investment banks, mutual and hedge funds, and other institutional counterparties. As a result, defaults by, or even rumors or questions about, one or more financial services companies, or the financial services industry generally, have led to market-wide liquidity problems and could lead to losses or defaults by us or by other institutions. Many of these transactions expose us to credit risk in the event of default of our counterparty or client. In addition, our credit risk may be exacerbated when the collateral held by us cannot be realized or is liquidated at prices not sufficient to recover the full amount of the loan or derivative exposure due us. There is no assurance that any such losses would not materially and adversely affect our businesses, financial condition, or results of operations.

The calculations of the weighted average interest rates for each maturity category are based upon yield weighted by the respective costs of the securities. The weighted average rates on state and political subdivisions are computed on a taxable equivalent basis using a 35% tax rate. For purposes of the above presentation, maturities of mortgage-backed pass through certificates and collateralized mortgage obligations are based on estimated maturities.

Excluding those holdings of the investment portfolio in U.S. Treasury securities, government agencies, and government sponsored agencies, there were no securities of any one issuer that exceeded 10% of our shareholders’ equity at December 31, 2008.

In 2008, gross interest income that would have been recorded on nonaccrual loans had the loans been current in accordance with their original terms amounted to $3.5 million. Interest income actually received and included in net income for the period was $0.7 million, leaving $2.8 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, 2008. See note 17 to the consolidated financial statements for further information.

Dividends

The annual dividend paid to our stockholders was increased from $1.10 per share to $1.17 per share during 2008. 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. The current year cash dividend ratio was 75.97%. However, the higher dividend ratio reflects the decreased net income which resulted primarily from the other-than-temporary-impairment charges of $14.5 million on Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae trust preferred pass-through auction rate securities and a $4.9 million increase in our allocation to our reserve for loan losses taken in 2008. 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 19 to the consolidated financial statements included herein for the year ended December 31, 2008.

Stock Repurchases

CTBI repurchased 93,500 shares of its common stock during 2008, leaving 288,519 shares remaining under CTBI's current repurchase authorization. We acquired 196,500 shares of stock through the stock repurchase program during the year 2007. 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.

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:

Available-for-Sale Securities – Available-for-sale securities are valued using the following valuation techniques:

Securities Available-for-Sale – Level 2 Inputs. For these securities, CTBI obtains fair value measurements from an independent pricing service. The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, the U.S. Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information and the bond's terms and conditions, among other things.

Securities Available-for-Sale – Level 3 Inputs. The securities owned by CTBI that were measured using Level 3 criteria are auction rate securities issued by FNMA and FHLMC. These securities were valued using an independent third party. For these securities, the valuation methods used were (1) a discounted cash flow model valuation, where the expected cash flows of the securities are discounted to the present using a yield that incorporates compensation for illiquidity and (2) a market comparables method, where the securities are valued based on indications, from the secondary market, of what discounts buyers demand when purchasing similar securities. Using these methods, the auction rate securities are classified as Level 3.

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 SFAS 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan. We evaluate the collectability 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 ALLL allocation for this pool of commercial loans is established based on the historical average, maximum, minimum, and median loss ratios.

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 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.

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, 2008 and 2007 was $10.4 million and $7.9 million, respectively.

Goodwill and Core Deposit Intangible – We evaluate total goodwill and core deposit intangible for impairment, based upon SFAS 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets and SFAS 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 year one, approximately $0.4 million in year two, and approximately $0.1 million in years three and four.

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, excluding restricted shares.

Diluted EPS adjusts the number of weighted average shares of common stock outstanding by the dilutive effect of stock options, including restricted shares, as prescribed in SFAS 123R.

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. MSRs are valued using Level 3 inputs as defined in SFAS 157. 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.

Stock Options – At December 31, 2008 and 2007, CTBI had a share-based employee compensation plan, which is described more fully in note 13. CTBI accounts for this plan under the recognition and measurement principles of SFAS 123R, Share-Based Payment.

New Accounting Standards –

Ø Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset When the Market For That Asset is Not Active – FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) No. FAS 157-3 clarifies the application of FASB No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, in a market that is not active and provides an example to illustrate key considerations in determining the fair value of a financial asset when the market for that financial asset is not active. This FSP was effective October 10, 2008.

Ø Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions Are Participating Securities – This FASB Staff Position No. EITF 03-6-1 addresses whether instruments granted in share-based payment transactions are participating securities prior to vesting and, therefore, need to be included in the earnings allocation in computing earnings per share under the two-class method described in paragraphs 60 and 61 of FASB Statement No. 128, Earnings Per Share. This FSP is effective January 1, 2009, and is not expected to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Ø Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities – In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 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 differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. This Statement is expected to expand the use of fair value measurement, which is consistent with the FASB’s long-term measurement objectives for accounting for financial instruments. SFAS 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. CTBI has not elected the fair value option for any financial assets or liabilities.

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 did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

Ø Business Combinations (Revised 2007) – The FASB recently issued SFAS 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. This Statement defines a bargain purchase as a business combination in which the total acquisition date fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired exceeds the fair value of the consideration transferred plus any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree, and it requires the acquirer to recognize that excess in earnings as a gain attributable to the acquirer. In contrast, Statement 141 required the “negative goodwill” amount to be allocated as a pro rata reduction of the amounts that otherwise would have been assigned to particular assets acquired. 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, effective January 1, 2008, 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 as a change in accounting principle through a $1.8 million cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings based on the cost of insurance.

Results of Operations

2008 Compared to 2007

CTBI reported earnings of $23.1 million or $1.54 per basic share for the year 2008 compared to $36.6 million or $2.42 per basic share for the year 2007. Average shares outstanding decreased from 15.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2007 to 15.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2008.

During 2008, CTBI recorded other than temporary impairment charges of $14.5 million, $1.1 million of which was recorded in the fourth quarter 2008, based upon the current market value of Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae trust preferred pass-through auction rate securities. CTBI held $14.9 million of these securities on June 30, 2008. The current market value of all auction rate securities held by CTBI is $0.5 million. CTBI also recorded a $1.5 million decline in the fair value of its mortgage servicing rights during 2008, $1.1 million of which occurred in the fourth quarter 2008, and increased its provision for loan losses by $4.9 million year over year. Additionally, current economic conditions combined with the current interest rate environment continue to put pressure on CTBI’s net interest margin and impact its asset quality contributing to lower earnings for the fourth quarter and year 2008.

v	CTBI's basic earnings per share decreased $0.88 from prior year, primarily as a result of other than temporary impairment charges during the third and fourth quarters 2008 and a $4.9 million increase in our allocation to our reserve for losses on loans.

Pressure continued on our net interest margin due to the current interest rate environment and economic conditions. Our net interest margin for the year ended December 31, 2008 decreased 2 basis points from prior year, and net interest income decreased $2.4 million from prior year as average earning assets decreased by $57.0 million.

Noninterest income was impacted by $14.5 million in other than temporary impairment (OTTI) charges for auction rate securities. Core noninterest income showed slight increases from prior year with increases in gains on sales of loans, deposit service charges, and trust revenue; however these increases were offset by a decrease in the fair value of mortgage servicing rights.

v	Noninterest expense controls were positive during 2008 as we experienced a decline in total noninterest expense which was driven by decreases in both personnel and occupancy and equipment expenses.

v	Our efficiency ratio for the year 2008 increased 77 basis points from 2007 to 58.39%.

v	Nonperforming loans increased to $52.2 million at December 31, 2008 compared to $31.9 million at prior year-end.

v	Our loan portfolio increased 5.4% during the year with $120.8 million in growth.

v	Our investment portfolio decreased $64.1 million year over year primarily resulting from the use of the liquidity in the portfolio to fund loan growth and manage the net interest margin and the OTTI charges for auction rate securities.

CTBI’s effective income tax rate was 26.44% for the year ended December 31, 2008, compared to 31.18% for the year ended December 31, 2007. The reduced income tax rate was driven by the increase in the ratio of tax exempt income to total income and the adjustment of a tax deferred item in the fourth quarter 2008 which had a positive impact to earnings of $0.04 per share.

v	Return on average assets for the year was 0.79% compared to 1.23% for the year 2007. Return on average equity was 7.48% compared to 12.45%.

Net Interest Income:

Our net interest margin for the year ended December 31, 2008 decreased 2 basis points compared to the same period in 2007. Net interest income for the year ended December 31, 2008 decreased $2.4 million from prior year as the cost of interest bearing funds decreased 108 basis points while the yield on average earning assets decreased 94 basis points and average earning assets declined $57.0 million.

Provision for Loan Losses and Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses:

The provision for loan losses that was added to the allowance for 2008 increased $4.9 million from the year 2007. This provision represented 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. Our loan loss reserve as a percentage of total loans outstanding at December 31, 2008 increased to 1.31% compared to 1.26% at December 31, 2007. The adequacy of our loan loss reserve is analyzed quarterly and adjusted as necessary.

Nonperforming loans increased during the year by $20.3 million with increases in all of our regions. CTBI's total nonperforming loans at December 31, 2008 were $52.2 million compared to $31.9 million at December 31, 2007. Our loan portfolio management processes focus on maintaining appropriate reserves for potential losses.

An increase in nonperforming loans does not necessitate a corollary increase in the amount of loan loss reserves. Nonperforming loans include loans that are 90 days, or more, past due as well as nonaccrual loans and restructured debt. A loan that is 90 days, or more, past due must be placed on nonaccrual unless it is well secured and in the process of collection. If it has not been placed on nonaccrual it has met both criteria, especially that of "well secured", and thereby would require no specific reserve. A loan is placed on nonaccrual when, by definition, the bank does not anticipate collecting all of its principal and/or interest. CTBI has several loans that are secured by real estate that we do not anticipate collecting all of the interest owed but, with current appraisals performed, do anticipate collecting all of the principal. In this instance, while the interest accrued would have been reversed, and the loan placed on nonaccrual, no additional specific reserve would be required because we anticipate collecting all of the principal.

Foreclosed properties increased during 2008 to $10.4 million from the $7.9 million at December 31, 2007. Sales of foreclosed properties during 2008 totaled $5.0 million while new foreclosed properties totaled $7.7 million. Our nonperforming loans and foreclosed properties remain concentrated in our Central Kentucky Region. The increase in the Central Kentucky Region is primarily attributable to borrowers adversely impacted by the continuing weakness in the housing market and the resulting increase in time required by the legal process for movement from foreclosure to liquidation. The Central Kentucky Region continues to experience the most stress from the current housing crisis.

Net loan charge-offs for the year increased from $6.0 million for 2007 to $8.7 million for 2008 with most losses derived from our Central Kentucky Region as we continue to work through the region’s overbuilt housing market.

Noninterest Income:

The significant decline in noninterest income year over year occurred as a result of the $14.5 million other than temporary impairment charges for auction rate securities, as well as the $1.5 million decline in the fair value of mortgage servicing rights. We experienced increases year over year in the core banking noninterest income areas of gains on sales of loans, deposit service charges, and trust revenue which were partially offset by the decline in loan fees driven by the decline in the fair value of mortgage servicing rights.

Noninterest Expense:

Noninterest expense controls were positive during 2008 as we experienced a decline in total noninterest expense which was driven by decreases in both personnel and occupancy and equipment expenses. Commensurate with the U.S. Treasury placing Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae into conservatorship, noninterest expense for the year 2008 was impacted by a $0.8 million charge relative to trust activity for which CTBI had financial responsibility. The decrease in expenses would have been larger except for this $0.8 million charge.

Balance Sheet Review:

CTBI’s total assets at $3.0 billion increased 1.8% from prior year. Loans outstanding at December 31, 2008 were $2.3 billion reflecting a 5.4% growth from December 31, 2007. CTBI's investment portfolio, however, decreased 18.0% from prior year as a result of the use of the liquidity in our investment portfolio to fund loan growth and the other than temporary impairment charges for auction rate securities. Deposits, including repurchase agreements, at $2.5 billion increased 1.5% from prior year. The deposit (including repurchase agreements) to FTE (full-time equivalent) ratio increased to $2.5 million at December 31, 2008 from $2.4 million at December 31, 2007.

Shareholders’ equity at December 31, 2008 was $308.2 million compared to $301.4 at December 31, 2007. CTBI's annualized dividend yield to shareholders as of December 31, 2008 was 3.27%.

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 reflected 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 remained highly competitive and CTBI continued 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 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 represented 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 were individually reviewed with specific reserves established when appropriate. The increase in nonperforming loans was driven primarily by the increased inventory and the number of days on the market of residential real estate developments in Central Kentucky. We anticipated nonperforming loans to remain higher than recent history as the normal legal collection time period for real estate secured assets was slowed due to increased volumes in the industry. Our loan portfolio management processes focused 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 experienced significant losses and increases in nonperforming loans in this area. Although CTBI showed an increase in residential nonperforming loans between year-end 2006 and 2007, we also showed 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.

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, 2008, we had approximately $141.0 million in cash and cash equivalents and approximately $267.4 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 $60.7 million at December 31, 2008 compared to $40.9 million at December 31, 2007. As of December 31, 2008, we had a $330.7 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, 2008, 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 years 2007 and 2008, we repurchased 196,500 and 93,500 shares, respectively. As of December 31, 2008, a total of 2,211,481 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 2008:

	Board Authorizations	Repurchases*		Shares Available for Repurchase

Interest Rate Risk

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, 2008:

Change in Interest Rates (basis points)	Percentage Change in Net Interest Income (12 Months)
+300	7.12%
+200	4.54%
+100	2.21%
-25	(0.64)%

The following table shows CTBI’s estimated earnings sensitivity profile as of December 31, 2007:

Change in Interest Rates (basis points)	Percentage Change in Net Interest Income (12 Months)
+300	6.75%
+200	4.58%
+100	2.35%
-100	(2.46)%
-200	(5.05)%
-300	(7.76)%

The simulation model used the yield curve spread evenly over a twelve-month period. The measurement at December 31, 2008 estimates that our net interest income in an up-rate environment would increase by 7.12% at a 300 basis point change, 4.54% increase at a 200 basis point change, and a 2.21% increase at a 100 basis point change. In a down-rate environment, a 25 basis point decrease in interest rates would decrease net interest income by 0.64% over one year. 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 2008 and 2007, $83.7 million and $74.6 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, 2008 is presented below. In the 12 month repricing GAP, rate sensitive liabilities (“RSL”) exceeded rate sensitive assets (“RSA”) by $100.5 million.

Capital Resources

We continue to grow our shareholders’ equity while also providing an average annual dividend yield during 2008 of 3.18% to shareholders. Shareholders’ equity increased 3.2% from December 31, 2007 to $308.2 million at December 31, 2008. Our primary source of capital growth is the retention of earnings. Cash dividends were $1.17 per share for 2008 and $1.10 per share for 2007. We retained 24.0% of our earnings in 2008 compared to 54.5% in 2007.

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, 2008 were 10.37%, 13.05%, and 14.30%, respectively, all exceeding the threshold for meeting the definition of “well-capitalized.” See note 19 to the consolidated financial statements for further information.

As of December 31, 2008 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, except as noted in the Recent Regulatory Developments section below.

Recent Regulatory Developments

The following is a summary of recently enacted laws and regulations that could materially impact CTBI's results of operations or financial condition. This discussion is qualified in its entirety by reference to such laws and regulation.

On October 3, 2008, President Bush signed into law the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 (the “EESA”) enacted by the U.S. Congress in response to the financial crises affecting the banking system and financial markets and going concern threats to investment banks and other financial institutions. Pursuant to the EESA, the U.S. Department of Treasury (“U.S. Treasury”) has the authority to, among other things, purchase up to $700 billion of mortgages, mortgage-backed securities, and certain other financial instruments from financial institutions for the purpose of stabilizing and providing liquidity to the U.S. financial markets. The EESA also included a provision to increase the amount of deposits insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) to $250,000.

On October 14, 2008, the U.S Treasury announced the Troubled Asset Relief Program Capital Purchase Program (the “TARP Capital Purchase Program”). This program would make $250 billion of capital available to U.S. financial institutions from the $700 billion authorized by the EESA in the form of preferred stock investments by the U.S. Treasury under the following general terms:

Ø	the preferred stock issued to the U.S. Treasury (“Treasury Preferred Stock”) would pay 5% dividends for the first five years, and then 9% dividends thereafter;
Ø	in connection with the purchase of preferred stock, the U.S. Treasury will receive warrants entitling the U.S. Treasury to buy the participating institution’s common stock with a market price equal to 15% of the Treasury Preferred Stock;
Ø	the Treasury Preferred Stock may not be redeemed for a period of three years, except with proceeds from high-quality private capital;
Ø	the consent of the U.S. Treasury will be required to increase common dividends per share or any share repurchases, with limited exceptions, during the first three years, unless the Treasury Preferred Stock has been redeemed or transferred to third parties; and
Ø	participating companies must adopt the U.S Treasury’s standards for executive compensation and corporate governance for the period during which the U.S. Treasury holds the equity issued under the TARP Capital Purchase Program.

CTBI announced on January 16, 2009 that it had elected not to participate in the Treasury Department’s Capital Purchase Program. CTBI had received preliminary approval on December 17, 2008 from the U. S. Department of Treasury to receive $68 million by participating in the Treasury’s Capital Purchase Program. The Treasury’s Capital Purchase Program is a voluntary program designed to help institutions build capital to support the U. S. economy. CTBI currently maintains a capital level significantly exceeding regulatory guidelines for a well-capitalized institution and is meeting the lending needs of our customers. Considering our current capital position and the requirements the program would impose on our business, we believe that our participation in the program would not be in the best interests of our shareholders.

Also on October 14, 2008, the FDIC announced a new program – the Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program – that provides unlimited deposit insurance on funds in non-interest-bearing transaction deposit accounts not otherwise covered by the existing deposit insurance limit of $250,000, as well as a 100% guarantee of the senior debt of all FDIC-insured institutions and their holding companies. All eligible institutions were covered under the program for the first 30 days without incurring any costs. After the initial period, participating institutions have been assessed a charge of 10 basis points per annum for the additional insured deposits and a charge of 75 basis points per annum for guaranteed senior unsecured debt.

CTBI elected to participate in the unlimited deposit insurance for noninterest bearing deposits beyond the initial 30-day period and opt out of the coverage for senior unsecured debt.

Proposed legislation may create an environment that will unreasonably delay the collection of past due amounts, result in restructurings and collection of less than the full amount due to CTBI and impede our ability to make new residential loans. In addition, as a result of the weakness of certain financial institutions, the FDIC has taken action that will result in increased FDIC insurance assessments for United States FDIC-insured financial institutions, including CTBI. Under the deposit insurance restoration plan approved by the FDIC in October 2008, the Board set a rate schedule to raise the insurance reserve ratio to 1.15 percent within five years. On February 27, 2009, the FDIC announced that the restoration plan horizon has been extended to seven years in light of the current significant strains on banks and the financial system and the likelihood of a severe recession. In addition, the FDIC announced a special assessment of up to 20 basis points to be collected on September 30, 2009. The FDIC may also impose an emergency special assessment after June 30, 2009 of up to 10 basis points if the FDIC deems that an additional special assessment in necessary to maintain public confidence in federal deposit insurance. Based on the FDIC insurance premium schedule for 2009, we anticipate our premiums, exclusive of the special assessment of up to 20 basis points, to be $2.2 million for 2009 compared to $0.3 million for 2008. The special assessment at the maximum 20 basis points based on our deposit base at December 31, 2008 would be $4.6 million.

Impact of Inflation, Changing Prices, and 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 investment in nonmonetary 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 one of the most significant impacts 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 rate 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.

The national and global economic downturn has resulted in unprecedented levels of financial market volatility and has in general adversely impacted the market value of financial institutions, limited access to capital and had an adverse effect on the financial condition and results of operations of banking companies in general, including CTBI. Although CTBI operated at a profit last year, CTBI is a part of the financial system and a continuation of systemic lack of available credit, lack of confidence in the financial sector, increased volatility in the financial markets, and reduced business activity could materially and adversely impact CTBI’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

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, 2008, 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.

Available-for-Sale Securities – Available-for-sale securities are valued using the following valuation techniques:

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 SFAS 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 ALLL allocation for this pool of commercial loans is established based on the historical average, maximum, minimum, and median loss ratios.

Diluted EPS adjusts the number of weighted average shares of common stock outstanding by the dilutive effect of stock options, including restricted shares, as prescribed in SFAS 123R.

Reclassifications – Certain reclassifications considered to be immaterial have been made in the prior year consolidated financial statements to conform to current year classifications. These reclassifications had no effect on net income.

New Accounting Standards –

2. Cash and Due from Banks

Included in cash and due from banks are noninterest bearing deposits that are required to be held at the Federal Reserve or maintained in vault cash in accordance with regulatory reserve requirements. The balance requirements were $41.3 million and $38.6 million at December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

There was a combined loss of $14.5 million realized in 2008 due to other than temporary impairment charges on auction rate securities and one $50 thousand loss on the sale of auction rate securities. There were no pre-tax gains or losses realized on sales and calls in 2007 or 2006.

Securities in the amount of $276 million and $333 million at December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, were pledged to secure public deposits, trust funds, repurchase agreements, and advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank.

CTBI evaluates its investment portfolio on a quarterly basis for impairment. The analysis performed as of December 31, 2008 indicates that all impairment is considered temporary, market driven, and not credit-related, excluding the other-than-temporary-impairment charges on auction rate securities which were recorded during 2008. The following tables provide the amortized cost, gross unrealized losses, and fair market value, aggregated by investment category and length of time the individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position as of December 31, 2008.

4. Loans

Major classifications of loans, net of unearned income and deferred loan origination costs and fees, are summarized as follows:

(in thousands) December 31	2008		2007
Commercial construction	$	156,425	$	143,773
Commercial secured by real estate		663,663		640,574
Commercial other		365,685		333,774
Real estate construction		56,298		69,021
Real estate mortgage		609,394		599,665
Consumer		484,843		435,273
Equipment lease financing		12,343		5,817
	$	2,348,651	$	2,227,897

Not included in the loan balances above were loans held for sale in the amount of $0.6 million and $2.3 million at December 31, 2008 and 2007, 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 $1.4 million and $2.0 million at December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

The amount of loans on a non-accruing income status was $40.9 million, $22.2 million, and $9.9 million at December 31, 2008, December 31, 2007, and December 31, 2006, respectively. The total of loans on nonaccrual that were in homogeneous pools and not evaluated individually for impairment were $4.3 million, $3.4 million, and $2.6 million at December 31, 2008, December 31, 2007, and December 31, 2006, respectively. Additional interest which would have been recorded during 2008, 2007, and 2006 if such loans had been accruing interest was approximately $3.5 million, $2.3 million, and $1.0 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 $11.2 million, $9.6 million, and $4.3 million at December 31, 2008, December 31, 2007, and December 31, 2006, respectively.

At December 31, 2008, 2007, and 2006, the recorded investment in impaired loans was $36.6 million, $13.2 million, and $7.3 million, respectively. Included in these amounts at December 31, 2008, 2007, and 2006, respectively, were $22.1 million, $8.1 million, and $4.4 million of impaired loans for which specific reserves for loan losses were carried in the amounts of $8.4 million, $3.2 million, and $1.5 million. The average investment in impaired loans for 2008, 2007, and 2006 was $37.2 million, $13.3 million, and $7.4 million, respectively, while interest income of $0.7 million, $0.3 million, and $0.2 million was recognized on cash payments of $2.7 million, $11.0 million, and $0.9 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.

5. 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. 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:

(in thousands) Year Ended December 31	2008			2007			2006
Net gain on sale of loans held for sale	$	1,583		$	1,338		$	1,265
Net loan servicing income (expense)
Servicing fees		888			868			892
Late fees		59			64			56
Ancillary fees		165			147			131
Amortization/impairment (prior to 2007)		0			0			(591	)
Fair value adjustments		(1,503	)		(558	)		0
Net loan servicing income (expense)		(391	)		521			488
Mortgage banking income	$	1,192		$	1,859		$	1,753

Mortgage loans serviced for others are not included in the accompanying balance sheets. At December 31, 2008, 2007, and 2006, loans serviced for the benefit of others (primarily FHLMC) totaled $349 million, $351 million, and $362 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 $445 thousand, $539 thousand, and $480 thousand at December 31, 2008, 2007, and 2006, respectively.

Activity for capitalized mortgage servicing rights using the fair value method in 2008 and 2007 is as follows:

(in thousands)	2008			2007
Fair value, beginning of period	$	3,258		$	3,416
New servicing assets created		413			400
Change in fair value during the period due to:
Time decay (1)		(117	)		(182	)
Payoffs (2)		(352	)		(284	)
Changes in valuation inputs or assumptions (3)		(1,034	)		(92	)
Fair value, end of period	$	2,168		$	3,258

(1)	Represents decrease in value due to regularly scheduled loan principal payments and partial loan paydowns.

(2)	Represents decrease in value due to loans that paid off during the period.

(3)	Represents change in value resulting from market-driven changes in interest rates.

Activity for capitalized mortgage servicing rights using the amortization method in 2006 is as follows:

(in thousands)	2006
Balance, beginning of year	$	3,660
Additions		321
Amortization to expense		(591	)
Valuation adjustments		0
Balance, end of year	$	3,390

The fair values of capitalized mortgage servicing rights were $2.2 million, $3.3 million, and $3.4 million at December 31, 2008, 2007, and 2006, respectively. Fair values for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007, and 2006 were determined by third-party valuations using discount rates of 10.0%, 10.10%, and 10.61%, respectively, and weighted average default rates of 1.7%, 1.6%, and 1.3%, respectively. The prepayment speeds applied in 2008 and 2007 were generated by the Andrew Davidson Prepayment Model. The speeds ranged from 7.2% to 31.7% and 7.1% and 26.4%, respectively, depending on the stratifications of the specific rights. In 2006, Bloomberg PSA speeds ranged from 135% to 389%, 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.

6. 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, 2008 was $20.1 million. During 2008, activity with respect to these extensions of credit included new loans of $8.0 million and repayment of $7.4 million. As a result of these activities, the aggregate balance of related party extensions of credit was $20.7 million at December 31, 2008. The aggregate balances of related party deposits at December 31, 2008 and 2007 were $19.4 million and $22.2 million, respectively.

7. Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses

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, 2008. Approximately $0.2 million in FIN 48 liability is relative to state nexus issues. As of December 31, 2007, we reported resolution of these issues would be completed by December 31, 2008. However, due to ongoing communications with the jurisdiction involved, we now anticipate the filing of these returns by June 30, 2009. CTBI is subject to taxation in the United States and various state and local jurisdictions. For federal tax purposes, CTBI’s tax years for 2005 through 2008 are subject to examination by the tax authorities. For state and local tax purposes, CTBI’s tax years for 2003 through 2008 are subject to examination by the tax authorities. CTBI currently recognizes interest and penalties accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. As of December 31, 2008, no interest or penalties have been recognized.

CTBI is currently under examination by the Internal Revenue Service for the 2006 tax year. The examination is expected to be completed by the end of June 2009. There have been no significant issues raised by the agents.

A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amounts of unrecognized tax benefits under FIN 48 is shown below:

13. 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 $0.9 million for each of the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007, and 2006. The 401(k) Plan owned 504,722, 525,938, and 553,758 shares of CTBI’s common stock at December 31, 2008, 2007, and 2006, respectively. 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 $1.2 million, $1.3 million, and $1.2 million for the years ending December 31, 2008, 2007, and 2006, respectively. The ESOP owned 573,297, 569,755, and 520,970 shares of CTBI’s common stock at December 31, 2008, 2007, and 2006, 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, 2008, the 1998 Plan had 1,046,831 shares authorized, 154,287 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, 2008:

	Performance units	(d)	(b)	(a)
	Stock appreciation rights (“SARs”)	(e)	(b)	(a)
Total				1,478

(a)

Under the 2006 Plan, 1.5 million shares (plus any shares reserved for issuance under the 1998 Stock Option Plan) were authorized for issuance as nonqualified and incentive stock options, SARS, restricted stock and performance units. As of December 31, 2008, the above shares remained available for issuance.

(b)	Not applicable

(c)	The maximum number of shares of Restricted Stock that may be granted to a participant during any calendar year is 40,000 shares.

(d)	No performance units have been issued. The maximum payment that can be made pursuant to Performance Units granted to any one Participant in any calendar year shall be $250,000.

(e)	No SARS have been issued. The maximum number of shares with respect to which SARs may be granted to a Participant during any calendar year shall be 100,000 shares.

The following table details the shares available for future issuance under the 2006 Plan at December 31, 2008.

CTBI uses a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions, which are evaluated and revised as necessary, in estimating the grant-date fair value of each option grant for the year end:

	2008			2007			2006
Expected option life (in years)		7.5			7.5			7.5
Expected volatility		0.310			0.335			0.364
Expected Dividend yield		4.10	%		2.77	%		3.21	%
Risk-free interest rate		3.23	%		4.81	%		4.53	%

The expected option life is derived from the “safe-harbor” rules for estimating option life in SFAS 123(R). 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 2008, 2007, and 2006 was $0.7 million, $0.6 million, and $0.7 million, respectively.

CTBI’s stock option activity for the 2006 Plan for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 is summarized as follows:

15. 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, 2008 and 2007. Off-balance sheet loan commitments at December 31, 2008 and 2007 were $481.8 million and $445.6 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.

Assets Measured on a Recurring Basis

The following table presents information about CTBI’s assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2008, and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques utilized by CTBI to determine such fair value.

(in thousands)			Fair Value Measurements at December 31, 2008 Using
	Fair Value December 31 2008		Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)		Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)
Available-for-sale securities	$	267,376	$	0	$	266,836	$	540
Mortgage servicing rights		2,168		0		0		2,168
Total recurring assets measured at fair value	$	269,544	$	0	$	266,836	$	2,708

Mortgage Servicing Rights – Level 3 Inputs. CTBI records MSRs at fair value on a recurring basis with subsequent remeasurement of MSRs based on change in fair value. In determining fair value, CTBI utilizes the expertise of an independent third party. An estimate of the fair value of CTBI’s MSRs is determined by the independent third party utilizing assumptions about factors such as mortgage interest rates, discount rates, mortgage loan prepayment speeds, market trends and industry demand. All of CTBI’s MSRs are classified as Level 3.

Following is a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of recurring fair value measurements using significant unobservable (Level 3) inputs:

(in thousands)	Available-for-Sale Securities			Mortgage Servicing Rights
Beginning balance, January 1, 2008	$	40,050		$	3,258
Total realized and unrealized gains and losses

Assets Measured on a Non-Recurring Basis

Assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis are summarized below:

(in thousands)			Fair Value Measurements at December 31, 2008 Using
	Fair Value December 31 2008		Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)		Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)
Impaired loans	$	10,285	$	0	$	0	$	10,285

Impaired Loans – Level 3 Inputs. Loans considered impaired under SFAS No. 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan, as amended by SFAS No. 118, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan — Income Recognition and Disclosure, are loans for which, based on current information and events, it is probable that the creditor will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Impaired loans are subject to nonrecurring fair value adjustments to reflect (1) partial write-downs that are based on the observable market price or current appraised value of the collateral or (2) the full charge-off of the loan carrying value.

16. 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)	2008		2007
Standby letters of credit	$	57,493	$	57,241
Commitments to extend credit		424,258		388,404
Total	$	481,751	$	445,645

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, 2008, 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 93% of the total standby letters of credit are secured, with $46.0 million of the total $57.5 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. At December 31, 2008, a credit loss reserve of $268 thousand was maintained relating to these commitments. 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, 2008 of $22.9 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, 2008.

17. 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, 2008 and 2007, our concentrations of hotel/motel industry credits were 39% and 40% of Tier 1 Capital plus the allowance for loan and lease losses, respectively. Coal mining and related support industries credits were 32% and 22%, respectively. Lessors of residential buildings and dwellings credits were 31% and 30%, respectively. Floorplan credits were 24% and 23% 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.

18. 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.

19. 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 2009, approximately $20.5 million plus any 2009 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, 2008 and 2007. We believe, as of December 31, 2008, 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, 2008, 286,324 stock options at a weighted average price of $34.42 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, 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, all outstanding stock options were used in the computation of diluted earnings per share.

22. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income

CTBI has elected to present the disclosure required by SFAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income, in the consolidated Statements of Changes in Shareholders' Equity. The subtotal Comprehensive income represents total comprehensive income as defined in the statement.

Change in other comprehensive income	$	2,017		$	2,138	$	1,075

23. 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 was 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 was an eligible institution and received notice from the FDIC that its share of the credit was approximately $2.2 million. As of December 31, 2008, the credit was fully absorbed.

24. Subsequent Events

The FDIC has taken action that will result in increased FDIC insurance assessments for United States FDIC-insured financial institutions, including CTBI. Under the deposit insurance restoration plan approved by the FDIC in October 2008, the Board set a rate schedule to raise the insurance reserve ratio to 1.15 percent within five years. On February 27, 2009, the FDIC announced that the restoration plan horizon has been extended to seven years in light of the current significant strains on banks and the financial system and the likelihood of a severe recession. In addition, the FDIC announced a special assessment of up to 20 basis points to be collected on September 30, 2009. The FDIC may also impose an emergency special assessment after June 30, 2009 of up to 10 basis points if the FDIC deems that an additional special assessment in necessary to maintain public confidence in federal deposit insurance.

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, 2008, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). 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, 2008, based on criteria established in COSO.

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 13, 2009, expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

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, 2008 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, 2008.

The effectiveness of CTBI’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008 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.
