F & M BANK CORP.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 6 FAIR VALUE
     FASB Statement No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS No. 157”), defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurement and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows:
Level 1 - Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level 2 - Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.
Level 3 — Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.
The following sections provide a description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy:
Securities: Where quoted prices are available in an active market, securities are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. Level 1 securities would include highly liquid government bonds, mortgage products and exchange traded equities. If quoted market prices are not available, then fair values are estimated by using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics, or discounted cash flow. Level 2 securities would include U.S. agency securities, mortgage-backed agency securities, obligations of states and political subdivisions and certain corporate, asset backed and other securities. In certain cases where there is limited activity or less transparency around inputs to the valuation, securities are classified within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy. Currently, all of the Company’s securities are considered to be Level 2 securities.
Impaired Loans: SFAS No. 157 applies to loans measured for impairment using the practical expedients permitted by SFAS No. 114, “Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan,” including impaired loans measured at an observable market price (if available), or at the fair value of the loan’s collateral (if the loan is collateral dependent). Fair value of the loan’s collateral, when the loan is dependent on collateral, is determined by appraisals or independent valuation which is then adjusted for the cost related to liquidation of the collateral.
Other Real Estate Owned: Certain assets such as other real estate owned (OREO) are measured at fair value less cost to sell. We believe that the fair value component in its valuation follows the provisions of SFAS No. 157.
Assets and Liabilities Recorded at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
The table below presents the recorded amount of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

Critical Accounting Policies
General
     The Company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). The financial information contained within the statements is, to a significant extent, financial information that is based on measures of the financial effects of transactions and events that have already occurred. A variety of factors could affect the ultimate value that is obtained either when earning income, recognizing an expense, recovering an asset or relieving a liability. The Company uses historical loss factors as one factor in determining the inherent loss that may be present in its loan portfolio. Actual losses could differ significantly from the historical factors that are used. The fair value of the investment portfolio is based on period end valuations but changes daily with the market. In addition, GAAP itself may change from one previously acceptable method to another method. Although the economics of these transactions would be the same, the timing of events that would impact these transactions could change.
Allowance for Loan Losses
     The allowance for loan losses is an estimate of the losses that may be sustained in the loan portfolio. The allowance is based on two basic principles of accounting: (i) Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies, which requires that losses be accrued when they are probable of occurring and estimable and (ii) SFAS No. 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan, which requires that losses be accrued based on the differences between the value of collateral, present value of future cash flows or values that are observable in the secondary market and the loan balance.
Goodwill and Intangibles
     In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 141, Business Combinations and SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. SFAS No. 141 requires that the purchase method of accounting be used for all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. Additionally, it further clarifies the criteria for the initial recognition and measurement of intangible assets separate from goodwill. SFAS No. 142 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001 and prescribes the accounting for goodwill and intangible assets subsequent to initial recognition. The provisions of SFAS No. 142 discontinue the amortization of goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives. Instead, these assets will be subject to at least an annual impairment review and more frequently if certain impairment indicators are in evidence. SFAS No. 142 also requires that reporting units be identified for the purpose of assessing potential future impairments of goodwill.
     Core deposit intangibles are amortized on a straight-line basis over ten years. The Company adopted SFAS 147 on January 1, 2002 and determined that the core deposit intangible will continue to be amortized over the estimated useful life.
Securities Impairment
     The Company evaluates each of its investments in securities, debt and equity, under guidelines contained in SFAS 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities. These guidelines require the Company to determine whether a decline in value below original cost is other than temporary. In making its determination, management considers current market conditions, historical trends in the individual securities, and historical trends in the total market. Expectations are developed regarding potential returns from dividend reinvestment and price appreciation over a reasonable holding period (five years).

Overview
     Net income for the third quarter of 2008 was $1,086,000 or $.47 per share, compared to $1,125,000 or $.48 per share in the third quarter of 2007, a decrease of 3.5%. Core operating earnings, (exclusive of securities transactions and non-recurring tax credits) totaled $1,292,000 in 2008 and $1,074,000 in 2007, an increase of 20.4%. During the third quarter of 2008, noninterest income, exclusive of securities transactions and a 2007 gain from the sale of real estate, decreased 1.9% and noninterest expense increased 3.2% during the same period.
Results of Operations
     The 2008 year to date tax equivalent net interest margin increased $964,000 or 9.4% compared to the same period in 2007. The yield on earning assets decreased .59%, while the cost of funds decreased .63% compared to the same period in 2007. In response to the economic slowdown, the Federal Reserve’s Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) began lowering short-term interest rate in September 2007. Through September 30, 2008, the FOMC had lowered the Federal Funds Rate on seven separate occasions by a total of 3.25%.
     The Interest Sensitivity Analysis on page 19 indicates the Company is in a liability sensitive position in the one year time horizon (2.50%). This is an improvement compared to the same period in 2007 when the liability sensitive position was (9.17%). During this time period the bank has made a significant shift toward the use of more variable rate assets and liabilities, which has led to the improvement in the interest sensitivity position. This shift has place the Company in a better position to react to changes in short-term rates. The rapid asset and liability repricing precipitated by the FOMC actions and slowing economy, has resulted in a .07% decrease in the net interest margin for the first nine months of 2008 as compared to the same period in 2007.
     A schedule of the net interest margin for 2008 and 2007 can be found in Table I on page 18.
     Noninterest income, exclusive of securities transactions, increased $82,000 or 3.5% through September 30, 2008. Items contributing to the increase include a $134,000 increase in service charge income, and a $23,000 increase in bank owned life insurance income. These increases were offset with a $42,000 decrease in earnings from FMFS (title, property and casualty insurance commissions and brokerage commissions) and the fact that there was a $69,000 gain on the sale of assets in 2007.
     Noninterest expense increased $370,000 in 2008. The increase is primarily the result of a $228,000 increase in salaries and benefits expense (4.9%). The increase in salaries and benefits includes normal salary increases, staff additions, and an increase in the cost of group insurance of 3.4%. Exclusive of personnel expenses, other noninterest expenses increased at an annualized rate of 4.5% in 2008 compared to 2007. Areas that increased include a $61,000 increase in advertising and special promotions expense, a $63,000 increase in FDIC assessment expense, a $31,000 increase in legal and professional expense, and a $30,000 increase in other taxes. Advertising and special promotions expense increased due to the celebration of the Bank’s 100th anniversary and promotion of a new checking product. The FDIC assessment increased due to an expiration of credits during the year.
     Operating costs continue to compare very favorably to the peer group. As stated in the most recently available Bank Holding Company Performance Report, the Company’s and peer group noninterest expenses averaged 2.67% and 3.32% of average assets, respectively. The Company’s operating costs have always compared favorably to the peer group due to an excellent asset to employee ratio and below average facilities costs.

Item 2.   Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)
Financial Condition
Federal Funds Sold and Interest Bearing Bank Deposits
     The Company’s subsidiary bank invests a portion of its excess liquidity in either federal funds sold or interest bearing bank deposits. Federal funds sold offer daily liquidity and pay market rates of interest that at quarter end was benchmarked at 2% by the Federal Reserve. Actual rates received vary slightly based upon money supply and demand among banks. Interest bearing bank deposits are held either in money market accounts or as short-term certificates of deposits.
Securities
     The Company’s securities portfolio serves several purposes. Portions of the portfolio are held to assist the Company with liquidity, asset liability management, as security for certain public funds and repurchase agreements and for long-term growth potential.
     The securities portfolio consists of investment securities (commonly referred to as “securities held to maturity”) and securities available for sale. Securities are classified as investment securities when management has the intent and ability to hold the securities to maturity. Investment securities are carried at amortized cost. Securities available for sale include securities that may be sold in response to general market fluctuations, liquidity needs and other similar factors. Securities available for sale are recorded at market value. Unrealized holding gains and losses on available for sale securities are excluded from earnings and reported (net of deferred income taxes) as a separate component of shareholders’ equity.
     As of September 30, 2008, the cost of securities available for sale exceeded their market value by $1,954,000. This includes decreases in value in the equity securities portfolio and corporate bonds held by the Company. Management has traditionally held debt securities (regardless of classification) until maturity and thus it does not expect the fluctuations in value of these securities to have a direct impact on earnings.
     Investments in debt securities were virtually unchanged in the first nine months of 2008. The portfolio is made up of primarily agency and mortgage-backed securities with an average portfolio life of approximately two years. This short average life results in less portfolio volatility and positions the Bank to redeploy assets in response to rising rates. Bond maturities for the remainder of 2008 total $1 million.
     The Company’s equity securities portfolio was $1,817,000 below cost at September 30, 2008. The portfolio has been impacted by the recent market volatility resulting from the slowing economy, sub-prime mortgage crisis and the financial sector crisis precipitated by the meltdown of large brokerage houses and banks. The decrease in the value of the equities portfolio is spread over a number of asset sectors including holdings in the financial sector. To minimize risk the Company holds a diversified portfolio of equity investments in a number of large, regional financial institutions and a variety of other predominantly blue-chip securities. Management continues to believe that these investments offer adequate current returns (dividends) and have the potential for future increases in value.
     A review of these investments as of September 30, 2008, revealed several securities that were impaired as of quarter end resulting in a write down of securities for book purposes of $313,000, or $206,000 net of deferred tax. Management continues to re-evaluate the portfolio for impairment on a quarterly basis.

Loan Portfolio
     The Company operates in a predominately rural area that includes the counties of Rockingham, Page and Shenandoah in the western portion of Virginia. The local economy benefits from a variety of businesses including agri-business, manufacturing, service businesses and several universities and colleges. The Bank is an active residential mortgage and residential construction lender and generally makes commercial loans to small and mid size businesses and farms within its primary service area.
     The allowance for loan losses (see subsequent section) provides for the risk that borrowers will be unable to repay their obligations and is reviewed quarterly for adequacy. The risk associated with real estate and installment notes to individuals is based upon employment, the local and national economies and consumer confidence. All of these affect the ability of borrowers to repay indebtedness. The risk associated with commercial lending is substantially based on the strength of the local and national economies.
     While lending is geographically diversified within the service area, the Company does have loan concentrations in agricultural (primarily poultry farming), construction, hotels, churches, assisted living facilities and multi-family residential properties. Management and the Board of Directors review these concentrations quarterly.
     During the first nine months of 2008 the loan portfolio increased $64,612,000. The increase is concentrated primarily within the construction, residential and commercial loan portfolios. A portion of the increase is from loan participations purchased from a correspondent bank and from two de novo banks that have much lower legal lending limits. Several of the loan participations purchased from the correspondent bank are loans to other bank holding companies or insiders of these bank holding companies and these loans are secured by the stock of these bank holding companies or stock of the underlying subsidiary banks. The other participations purchased are primarily real estate based commercial loans secured by income producing properties.
     Nonperforming loans include nonaccrual loans, loans 90 days or more past due and restructured loans. Nonaccrual loans are loans on which interest accruals have been suspended or discontinued permanently. Restructured loans are loans which have had the original interest rate or repayment terms changed due to financial hardship. Nonperforming loans totaled $3,689,000 at September 30, 2008 compared to $4,343,000 at December 31, 2007. Approximately 87% of these past due loans are secured by real estate. Management continues to believe that the bank is generally well secured and continues to actively work with its customers to effect payment. As of September 30, 2008, the Company does not hold any real estate which was acquired through foreclosure.
  The following is a summary of information pertaining to risk elements and impaired loans:

Item 2.   Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)
Allowance for Loan Losses
     Management evaluates the allowance for loan losses on a quarterly basis in light of national and local economic trends, changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio and the trend of past due and criticized loans. Specific factors evaluated include internally generated loan review reports, past due reports, historical loan loss experience and changes in the financial strength of individual borrowers that have been included on the Banks watch list or schedule of classified loans.
     In evaluating the portfolio, loans are segregated into loans with identified potential losses and pools of loans by type (commercial, residential, consumer, credit cards). Loans with identified potential losses include examiner and bank classified loans. Classified relationships in excess of $100,000 are reviewed individually for impairment under FAS 114. A variety of factors are taken into account when reviewing these credits including borrower cash flow, payment history, fair value of collateral, company management, the industry in which the borrower is involved and economic factors. Loan relationships that are determined to have no impairment are placed back into the appropriate loan pool and reviewed under FAS 5.
     Loan pools are further segmented into watch list, past due over 90 days and all other loans by type. Watch list loans include loans that are 60 days past due, and may include restructured loans, borrowers that are highly leveraged, loans that have been upgraded from classified or loans that contain policy exceptions (term, collateral coverage, etc.). Loss estimates on these loans reflect the increased risk associated with these assets due to any of the above factors. The past due pools contain loans that are currently 90 days or more past due. Loss rates assigned reflect the fact that these loans bear a significantly higher risk of charge-off. Loss rates vary by loan type to reflect the likelihood that collateral values will offset a portion of the anticipated losses.
     The remainder of the portfolio falls into pools by type of homogenous loans that do not exhibit any of the above described weaknesses. Loss rates are assigned based on historical loss rates over the prior five years. A multiplier has been applied to these loss rates to reflect the time for loans to season within the portfolio and the inherent imprecision of these estimates.
     All potential losses are evaluated within a range of low to high. An unallocated reserve has been established to reflect other unidentified losses within the portfolio. This helps to offset the increased risk of loss associated with fluctuations in past due trends, changes in the local and national economies, and other unusual events. The Board approves the loan loss provision for the following quarter based on this evaluation and an effort is made to keep the actual allowance at or above the midpoint of the range established by the evaluation process.
     The allowance for loan losses of $1,820,000 at September 30, 2008 is equal to .48% of loans held for investment. This compares to an allowance of $1,825,000 at September 30, 2007. Management has funded the allowance a total of $385,000 through September 30, 2008. Net charge-offs year to date total $268,000. This includes a $259,000 charge-off on one loan relationship in the medical field, and completes our anticipated losses associated with this borrower. Exclusive of this transaction, total charge-offs exceed recoveries by only $9,000 year to date.
     The overall level of the allowance is well below its peer group average. Management feels this is appropriate based on its loan loss history and the composition of its loan portfolio; the current allowance for loan losses is equal to approximately seven years of average loan losses. Based on historical losses, delinquency rates, collateral values of delinquent loans and a thorough review of the loan portfolio, management is of the opinion that the allowance for loan losses fairly states the estimated losses in the current portfolio.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)
Deposits and Other Borrowings
     The Company’s main source of funding is comprised of deposits received from individuals, governmental entities and businesses located within the Company’s service area. Deposit accounts include demand deposits, savings, money market and certificates of deposit. Total deposits have increased $24,782,000 since December 31, 2007. Time deposits increased $15,780,000 during this period while demand deposits and savings deposits increased $9,002,000. Time deposits have increased primarily due to funds raised by publicizing rates on a national listing service whose subscribers include other banks and credit unions. Demand and savings deposits have increased primarily as a result of the new Platinum Rewards interest bearing checking account which the Bank began offering in March 2008.
Short-term debt
     Short-term debt consists of federal funds purchased, commercial repurchase agreements (repos.) and daily rate credit from the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB). With the commercial repos customers deposit operating funds into their checking account and by mutual agreement with the bank their excess funds are swept daily into the repurchase accounts. These accounts are not considered deposits and are not insured by the FDIC. The Bank pledges securities held in its investment portfolio as collateral for these short-term loans. Federal funds purchased are overnight borrowings obtained from the Bank’s primary correspondent bank to manage short-term liquidity needs. Daily rate credit from the FHLB has been used to finance loans held for sale and also to finance the increase in short-term residential and commercial construction loans.
Long-term debt
     Borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta (FHLB) continue to be an important source of funding for the real estate loan portfolio. The Company’s subsidiary bank typically borrows funds on a fixed rate basis. These borrowings are used to fund either a fifteen-year fixed rate loan or a twenty-year loan, of which the first ten years have a fixed rate. This program allows the Bank to match the maturity of its fixed rate real estate portfolio with the maturity of its debt and thus reduce its exposure to interest rate changes. Scheduled repayments totaled $7,929,000 through September 30, 2008. Additional borrowings of $37 million were obtained to support the growth in the loan portfolio and to refinance short term debt at favorable longer term rates.
     In March 2008, the Company entered into an agreement with a correspondent bank (Silverton Bank) to provide a $5 million line of credit to be used for general corporate purposes, including capital contributions to the Bank and for the current stock repurchase program. The loan is unsecured and bears a rate of prime minus 1.25%. At September 30, 2008, $5 million was owed on this line of credit. In September 2008 the Company entered into an agreement with Page Valley Bank to provide a $1 million term loan to be used for a capital contribution to the Bank. The loan is unsecured and bears a rate of prime. Repayment terms include quarterly payments of $250,000 plus interest beginning in December.
Capital
     The Company seeks to maintain a strong capital base to expand facilities, promote public confidence, support current operations and grow at a manageable level. As of September 30, 2008, the Company’s total risk based capital and total capital to total assets ratios were 10.71% and 7.97%, respectively. Both ratios are in excess of regulatory minimums and exceed the ratios of the Company’s peers. Earnings have been sufficient to allow an increase in the third quarter dividend in 2008 of 4.55%.

Item 2.   Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)
Liquidity
     Liquidity is the ability to meet present and future financial obligations through either the sale or maturity of existing assets or the acquisition of additional funds through liability management. Liquid assets include cash, interest-bearing deposits with banks, federal funds sold, investments and loans maturing within one year. The Company’s ability to obtain deposits and purchase funds at favorable rates determines its liquidity exposure. As a result of the Company’s management of liquid assets and the ability to generate liquidity through liability funding, management believes that the Company maintains overall liquidity sufficient to satisfy its depositors’ requirements and meet its customers’ credit needs.
     Additional sources of liquidity available to the Company include, but are not limited to, loan repayments, the ability to obtain deposits through the adjustment of interest rates and the purchasing of federal funds. To further meet its liquidity needs, the Company also maintains lines of credit with correspondent financial institutions. The Company’s subsidiary bank also has a line of credit with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta that allows for secured borrowings.
Interest Rate Sensitivity
     In conjunction with maintaining a satisfactory level of liquidity, management must also control the degree of interest rate risk assumed on the balance sheet. Managing this risk involves regular monitoring of interest sensitive assets relative to interest sensitive liabilities over specific time intervals. The Company monitors its interest rate sensitivity periodically and makes adjustments as needed. There are no off balance sheet items that will impair future liquidity.
     As of September 30, 2008, the Company had a cumulative Gap Rate Sensitivity Ratio of (.62%) for the one year repricing period. This generally indicates that earnings would decrease in an increasing interest rate environment as liabilities reprice more quickly than assets. However, in actual practice, this may not be the case as loans tied to the prime rate of interest will reprice immediately with an increase in short term market rates, while deposit rates will remain stable until competitive market conditions dictate the necessity for an increase in rates. Management constantly monitors the Company’s interest rate risk and has decided the current position is acceptable for a well-capitalized community bank.
     A summary of asset and liability repricing opportunities is shown in Table II, on page 19.
Stock Repurchase
     On September 18, 2008, the Company’s Board of Directors approved an increase in the number of shares of common stock that the Company can repurchase under the share repurchase program from 150,000 to 200,000 shares.

Item 4T. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
     As a result of the enactment of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, issuers such as F & M Bank Corp. that file periodic reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Act”) are required to include in those reports certain information concerning the issuer’s controls and procedures for complying with the disclosure requirements of the federal securities laws. These disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports it files or submits under the Act, is communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive officer or officers and principal financial officer or officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
     We have established our disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that material information related to the Company is made known to our principal executive officers and principal financial officer on a regular basis, in particular during the periods in which our quarterly and annual reports are being prepared. These disclosure controls and procedures consist principally of communications between and among the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, and the other executive officers of the Company and its subsidiaries to identify any new transactions, events, trends, contingencies or other matters that may be material to the Company’s operations. As required, we will evaluate the effectiveness of these disclosure controls and procedures on a quarterly basis, and most recently did so as of the end of the period covered by this report.
     The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13(a)-14(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934), have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are adequate and effective for purposes of Rule 13(a)-14(e) and timely, alerting them to financial information relating to the Company required to be included in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
Changes in Internal Controls
     Due to the nature of the Company’s business as stewards of assets of customers; internal controls are of the utmost importance. The Company has established procedures during the normal course of business to reasonably ensure that fraudulent activity of either a material amount to these results or in any amount is not occurring. In addition to these controls and review by executive officers, the Company retains the services of an internal auditor to complete regular audits, which examine the processes and procedures of the Company and the Bank to ensure that these processes are reasonably effective to prevent internal or external fraud and that the processes comply with relevant regulatory guidelines of all relevant banking authorities. The findings of the internal auditor are presented to management of the Bank and to the Audit Committee of the Company.
