FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 evidences Congress’ determination that the disclosure of forward-looking information is desirable for investors and encourages such disclosure by providing a safe harbor for forward-looking statements by corporate management. This Form 10Q, including Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, contains forward-looking statements that involve risk and uncertainty. “Forward-looking statements” are easily identified by the use of words such as “could,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “believe,” and similar words that refer to a future outlook. To comply with the terms of the safe harbor, the company notes that a variety of factors could cause the company’s actual results and experience to differ materially from the anticipated results or other expectations expressed in the company’s forward-looking statements.

The risks and uncertainties that may affect the operations, performance, development and results of the company’s business include, but are not limited to, the growth of the economy, interest rate movements, the impact of competitive products, services and pricing, customer business requirements, Congressional legislation and similar matters. We caution readers of this report not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements which are subject to influence by the named risk factors and unanticipated future events. Actual results, accordingly, may differ materially from management expectations.

POTOMAC BANCSHARES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

SEPTEMBER 30, 2006 (UNAUDITED) AND DECEMBER 31, 2005

 

1. In the opinion of management, the accompanying financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position as of September 30, 2006, and December 31, 2005, the results of operations for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, and cash flows and statements of changes in stockholders’ equity for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005. The statements should be read in conjunction with Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Potomac Bancshares, Inc. annual report for the year ended December 31, 2005. The results of operations for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

The consolidated financial statements of Potomac Bancshares, Inc. (the company) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Bank of Charles Town (the bank), include the accounts of both companies. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts to conform to the current year presentation.

 

2. The 2003 Stock Incentive Plan was approved by stockholders on May 13, 2003 which authorized up to 183,600 shares of common stock to be used in the granting of incentive options to employees and directors. This is the first stock incentive plan adopted by the company. Under the plan, the option price cannot be less than the fair market value of the stock on the date granted. An option’s maximum term is ten years from the date of grant. The company granted 45,893 options in the first quarter of 2006 and 43,230 options in the first quarter of 2005. Options granted under the plan may be subject to a graded vesting schedule.

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

As a result of adopting SFAS 123R on January 1, 2006, incremental stock-based compensation expense recognized for the nine month period ending September 30, 2006 was $98 thousand, which impacted basic and diluted earnings per share by $.02 for the nine months ended September 30, 2006.

The following illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if the company had applied the fair value method of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”, prior to January 1, 2006:

Stock option compensation expense is the estimated fair value of options granted amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for each separately vesting portion of the award. The weighted average estimated fair value of stock options granted in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 was $3.88 and $2.91, respectively. Fair value is estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions for grants during 2006 and 2005: option term until exercise 10 years, expected volatility of 17.86% and 19.46%, risk-free interest rates of 4.43% and 4.26%, and expected dividend yields of 2.66% and 3.15%, respectively.

The primary purpose of the investment portfolio is to generate income and meet liquidity needs of the company through readily saleable financial instruments. The portfolio is made up of fixed rate bonds, whose prices move inversely with rates. At the end of any accounting period, the investment portfolio has unrealized gains and losses. The company monitors the portfolio which is subject to liquidity needs, market rate changes and credit risk changes to see if adjustments are needed. The primary concern in a loss situation is the credit quality of the business behind the instrument. The primary cause of impairments is the decline in the prices of the bonds as rates have risen. There are approximately 31 accounts in the consolidated portfolio that have losses. These securities have not suffered credit deterioration and the company has the ability and intent to hold these issues to maturity; therefore, the gross unrealized losses are considered temporary as of September 30, 2006.

The following table summarizes the fair value and gross unrealized losses for securities aggregated by investment category and length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous gross unrealized loss position as of September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005 (in thousands).

10. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) released Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108 (SAB 108). SAB 108 expresses the SEC staff’s views regarding the process of quantifying financial statement misstatements. These interpretations were issued to address diversity in practice and the potential under current practice for the build up of improper amounts on the balance sheet. SAB 108 expresses the SEC staff’s view that a registrant’s materiality evaluation of an identified unadjusted error should quantify the effects of the error on each financial statement and related financial statement disclosures and that prior year misstatements should be considered in quantifying misstatements in current year financial statements. SAB 108 also states that correcting prior year financial statements for immaterial errors would not require previously filed reports to be amended. Such correction may be made the next time the registrant files the prior year financial statements. Registrants electing not to restate prior periods should reflect the effects of initially applying the guidance in SAB 108 in their annual financial statements covering the first fiscal year ending after November 15, 2006. The cumulative effect of the initial application should be reported in the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities as of the beginning of that fiscal year and the offsetting adjustment should be made to the opening balance of retained earnings for that year. Registrants should disclose the nature and amount of each individual error being corrected in the cumulative adjustment. The disclosure should also include when and how each error arose and the fact that the errors had previously been considered immaterial. The SEC staff encourages early application of the guidance in SAB 108 for interim periods of the first fiscal year ending after November 15, 2006. The company expects the statement to have no material impact on its financial statements.

In February 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 155, “Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments – an amendment of FASB Statements No. 133 and 140” (SFAS 155). SFAS 155 permits fair value measurement of any hybrid financial instrument that contains an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation. The Statement also clarifies which interest-only strips and principal-only strips are not subject to the requirements of Statement 133. It establishes a requirement to evaluate interests in securitized financial assets to identify interests that are freestanding derivatives or that are hybrid financial instruments that contain an embedded derivative requiring bifurcation. SFAS 155 also clarifies that concentrations of credit risk in the form of subordination are not embedded derivatives. Finally, SFAS 155 amends Statement 140 to eliminate the prohibition on a qualifying special-purpose entity from holding a derivative financial instrument that pertains to a beneficial interest other than another derivative financial instrument. SFAS 155 is effective for all financial instruments acquired or issued after the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006. The company does not expect the implementation of SFAS 155 to have a material impact on its financial statements.

In March 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 156, “Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets – an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140” (SFAS 156). SFAS 156 requires an entity to recognize a servicing asset or servicing liability each time it undertakes an obligation to service a financial asset by entering into certain servicing contracts. The Statement also requires all separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities to be initially measured at fair value, if practicable. SFAS 156 permits an entity to choose between the amortization and fair value methods for subsequent measurements. At initial adoption, the Statement permits a one-time reclassification of available for sale securities to trading securities by entities with recognized servicing rights. SFAS 156 also requires separate presentation of servicing assets and servicing liabilities subsequently measured at fair value in the statement of financial position and additional disclosures for all separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities. This Statement is effective as of the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006. The pronouncement is expected to have no material impact on the company’s financial statements.

In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (SFAS 157). SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 does not require any new fair value measurements but may change current practice for some entities. This Statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those years. The company does not expect the implementation of SFAS 157 to have a material impact on its financial statements.

In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 158, “Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans – an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132(R)” (SFAS 158). SFAS 158 requires an employer to recognize the overfunded or underfunded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan as an asset or liability in its statement of financial position and to recognize changes in that funded status in the year in which the changes occur through comprehensive income. The funded status of a benefit plan will be measured as the difference between plan assets at fair value and the benefit obligation. For a pension plan, the benefit obligation is the projected benefit obligation. For any other postretirement plan, the benefit obligation is the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation. SFAS 158 also requires an employer to measure the funded status of a plan as of the date of its year-end statement of financial position. The Statement also requires additional disclosure in the notes to financial statements about certain effects on net periodic benefit cost for the next fiscal year that arise from delayed recognition of the gains or losses, prior service costs or credits, and transition asset or obligation. The company is required to initially recognize the funded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan and to provide the required disclosures as of the end of the fiscal year ending after December 15, 2006. The requirement to measure plan assets and benefit obligations as of the date of the employers’ fiscal year-end statement of financial position is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2008. The company is in the process of evaluating the impact of SFAS 158 on the 2006 year end financial statements.

In June 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes: An Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (FIN 48). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an entity’s financial statements in accordance with SFAS 109. The Interpretation prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement principles for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The company expects the pronouncement will have no material impact on its financial statements.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

General

The company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The financial information contained within our 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. We use historical loss factors as one factor in determining the inherent loss that may be present in our loan portfolio. Actual losses could differ significantly from the historical factors that we use. In addition, GAAP itself may change from one previously acceptable method to another method. Although the economics of our transactions would be the same, the timing of events that would impact our transactions could change.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses is an estimate of the losses that may be sustained in our loan portfolio. The allowance is based on two basic principles of accounting: (i) SFAS 5, Accounting for Contingencies, which requires that losses be accrued when they are probable of occurring and estimatable and (ii) SFAS 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.

Our allowance for loan losses has two basic components: the formula allowance and the unallocated allowance. Each of these components is determined based upon estimates that can and do change when the actual events occur. The formula allowance uses a historical loss view as an indicator of future losses and, as a result, could differ from the loss incurred in the future. However, since this history is updated with the most recent loss information, the errors that might otherwise occur are mitigated. The unallocated allowance captures losses that are attributable to various economic events, industry or geographic sectors whose impact on the portfolio have occurred but have yet to be recognized in the formula allowance.

FINANCIAL OVERVIEW

Total assets have increased $22 million or 8% from the December 2005 total of $277.3 million to $299.7 million at September 30, 2006. A $19 million increase in loans and $4 million increase in securities available for sale during this time period combined with a $2 million decrease in cash and due from banks makes up the majority of the change on the asset side of the balance sheet.

Total deposits have increased $26 million or 11% at September 30, 2006 compared to December 31, 2005. The decrease in noninterest-bearing deposits is 5% at September 30, 2006 compared to December 31, 2005. Interest-bearing deposits have increased 14% during the same time period. In order to retain and grow our deposit base we have been doing some negotiating and some matching of rates. Also, in 2006 we have begun participating in the Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service (CDARS). During the first three quarters of 2006 we have an additional $12 million in brokered certificates through this program compared to no CDARS deposits at December 31, 2005. During the third quarter of 2006, we also added $9 million in brokered certificates of deposit that were not through the CDARS program.

The September 30, 2006 annualized return on average assets is 1.44% compared to 1.39% at December 31, 2005. At September 30, 2006 the annualized return on average equity is 15.69% compared to 14.02% at December 31, 2005. The leverage capital (equity to assets) ratio is 9.28% at September 30, 2006 compared to 9.18% at December 31, 2005.

Table of Contents

The following table is an analysis of the company’s allowance for loan losses with amounts shown in thousands. Net charge-offs for the company have been very low when compared with the size of the total loan portfolio. Management monitors the loan portfolio on a continual basis with procedures that allow for problem loans and potential problem loans to be highlighted and watched. Written reports are prepared on a quarterly basis for all loans and information on commercial loans graded below a certain level are reported to the Board of Directors on a monthly basis. Based on experience, these loan policies and the bank’s grading and review system, management believes the loan loss allowance is adequate.

Loans are placed on nonaccrual status when principal or interest is delinquent for 90 days or more. Interest income generally is not recognized on specific impaired loans unless the likelihood of further loss is remote. Interest income on other nonaccrual loans is recognized only to the extent of interest payments received. Following is a table showing the risk elements in the loan portfolio with amounts in thousands.

At September 30, 2006, other potential problem loans (excluding impaired loans) totaled $1.8 million. Loans are viewed as potential problem loans according to the ability of such borrowers to comply with current repayment terms. These loans are subject to constant management attention, and their status is reviewed on a regular basis.

Table of Contents

The comparison of most items of the income statements for the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 and for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 shows similar differences between 2006 and 2005. Overall, comparisons for the quarter ended September 30, 2006 show less increase in income and expense than year to date September 30 comparisons. Some of the details are highlighted below.

 

    Net income in 2006 is 8.0% greater than 2005 net income.

 

    At September 30, 2006 total interest and dividend income is up 26.2% compared to September 30, 2005 due in large part to loan growth and an increase in interest rates.

 

    The income on the securities portfolio for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 has increased approximately 40.0% over the same period in 2005. This is partially a result of the rate swap done at the end of 2005 where about $13 million in lower yielding securities were sold and replaced with higher yielding securities. There has also been a slight increase in the size of the securities portfolio during the year.

 

    Interest expense continues to increase. At September 30, 2006 year to date interest expense was 74.8% above 2005. The third quarter 2006 interest expense is 69.0% greater than the third quarter of 2005. The increase in expense is a combination of growth in deposits and higher interest rates being paid to retain deposits and attract additional deposit growth.

 

    Net interest income through September 30, 2006 is 9.7% greater than at September 30, 2005. The quarterly comparison shows a 4.2% increase over the same quarter in 2005.

 

    Net interest margin at September 30, 2006 is 4.52%, down slightly from the December 31, 2005 figure of 4.58%. During the first nine months of 2006, the overall average rate on loans has increased to 7.58% compared to 6.99% at December 31, 2005. During this same period the overall average rate being paid on deposits also increased to 2.80% compared to 1.87% at December 31, 2005.

Noninterest income increased 8.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to September 30, 2005. Some significant income items are listed here.

 

    Trust and financial services income increased 9.8% at September 30, 2006 compared to September 30, 2005. The settlement of two large estates and the continued increase in income from BCT Investments contributed to this increase.

 

    Service charges on deposit accounts have increased 11.0% in 2006 over 2005. The majority of these fees are overdraft related.

 

    Credit and debit card fees have increased 35.9% at September 30, 2006 compared to the same time in 2005 due to the growth in the deposit account base and concentrated sale of cards by bank personnel.

 

    Other noninterest income has decreased 11.1% as of September 30, 2006 compared to September 30, 2005. Significant factors include decreases in insurance commissions and in net secondary market fee income. There were increases in letter of credit fee income, merchant discount and cash advances, other fee income, safe deposit rental fees and moderate increases in the other noninterest income items.

Table of Contents

Noninterest expense increased 13.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to the same period in 2005. The quarterly comparison shows only an 7.7% increase compared to the third quarter of 2005. Some details of this increase are listed below.

 

    Salaries and employee benefits for the first nine months of 2006 are 21.1% more than for the first nine months of 2005 due to annual salary increases, some increase in staffing and related costs. This is actually down from the June 30, 2006 increase of 24.7%.

 

    Occupancy expense has increased 18.1% in 2006 compared to 2005. As the bank continues to grow so does the space needed to respond to the growth. Facilities have been remodeled and several additional office spaces have been leased.

 

    Advertising and marketing expenses have increased 20.8% in 2006 compared to 2005 due to continual efforts to grow the bank’s customer base by keeping Bank of Charles Town in the public “eye” as well as to keep customers informed. These efforts include a new advertising program in 2006 that is providing a new look to the bank brochures and media advertising. The bank is proactive in providing information to our customers to educate them about the increasing fraudulent schemes and scams in the market place today.

 

    Auditing and accounting expenses have decreased 45.7% in 2006 compared to 2005. The delay in the required compliance with Sarbanes-Oxley and bringing the internal audit function “in house” are the major factors in the decrease.

 

    ATM and check card expenses have increased 27.6% in the first nine months of 2006 compared to the same time period in 2005 due to growth in the deposit account base, concentrated sales efforts of the bank staff to market this product and the costs of scheduled replacement of customer cards.

 

    Other noninterest expenses have increased 8.9% at September 30, 2006 compared to September 30, 2005. Through June of 2006 this percentage was 13.1%. Significant increases in this category include the following.

 

    Online banking expense has increased 26.8% in 2006 compared to 2005 due to increased number of online banking customers and the offering of free bill paying services.

 

    Other professional fees have increased 16.1% in 2006 compared to 2005. The increase is due to a fee paid to a recruiting firm for personnel and to fees paid in outsourcing advertising.

 

    Training and study expense through September 2006 has increased 73.6% over the September 2005 balance. Growth in staff and continued emphasis by management to have a well trained staff has contributed to this increase.

 

    Correspondent bank fees have increased 30.1 % in 2006 over 2005. Federal reserve service fees are included in this account and these have increased at least for the present due to the company’s partial implementation of Check 21. We expect this to decrease as full implementation by the company occurs as well as full implementation by all financial institutions.

 

    Contributions have decreased 36.9% in 2006 compared to 2005. This decrease is due in large part to the timing of payment of the contributions.

 

    Other taxes which includes a local business and occupation tax, sales tax and purchaser’s use tax has increased 57.9%. The local tax is based on gross income and the company’s gross income continues to grow so the taxes will increase. Business growth also requires more items that are taxable so sales and purchaser’s use taxes can be expected to increase.

 

    Pinnacle fee expense has increased 14.7% in 2006 compared to 2005. This is the fee paid to vendor for the overdraft protection program based on the increase in our income over former levels. This is paid over the initial five years of using the program.

 

    CDARS fee expense for 2006 is $14 thousand. This fee is paid for every certificate of deposit that we put on our books through the CDARS program. There is no comparative expense for 2005 since we joined this program in early 2006.

 

    FHLB letter of credit expense for 2006 is $5 thousand. In 2006, for the first time we are securing a portion of public funds with these letters of credit and pay fees to FHLB for these letters of credit.

 

    West Virginia Business Franchise Tax has increased 28.9% in 2006 compared to 2005. This tax is based on average capital balances and as our capital continues to increase so will this tax.
