INDEX

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 10-Q, 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 experiences 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, as well as the occurrence of the events described in the “Risk Factors” section of the December 31, 2007 Form 10-K. 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.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JUNE 30, 2008 (UNAUDITED) AND DECEMBER 31, 2007

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.

Incremental stock-based compensation expense recognized for the six month periods ending June 30, 2008 and 2007 was $31 thousand and $101 thousand, respectively.

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 six months ended June 30, 2007 was $3.76. Fair value is estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions for grants during 2007: option term until exercise 10 years, expected volatility of 19.56%, risk-free interest rates of 4.66%, and expected dividend yields of 2.74%. There have been no options granted in 2008.

Stock option plan activity for the six months ended June 30, 2008 is summarized below:

As of June 30, 2008 there was $148 thousand of total unrecognized compensation expense related to nonvested stock options, which will be recognized over the remaining requisite service period.

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 government entity behind the instrument. The primary cause of impairments is the decline in the prices of the bonds as rates have risen. There are approximately 14 accounts in the consolidated portfolio that have losses at June 30, 2008. 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 June 30, 2008.

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 June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007 (in thousands).

No additional funds are committed to be advanced in connection with impaired loans. Nonaccrual loans excluded from impaired loan disclosure under SFAS No. 114 at June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007 totaled $611 thousand and $517 thousand, respectively. If interest had been accrued on these nonaccrual loans, such income would have approximated $23 thousand through the second quarter of 2008 and $3 thousand through December 31, 2007.

Employer Contribution

Through the six months ended June 30, 2008, the company has contributed $385 thousand to the pension plan and anticipates additional contributions of $80 thousand in 2008. The company has made payments of $14 thousand for the postretirement benefits plan for the first six months of 2008 and anticipates remaining payments for 2008 to total $11 thousand.

The following shows the weighted average number of shares used in computing earnings per share and the effect on weighted average number of shares of diluted potential common stock. Potential diluted common stock had no effect on earnings available to shareholders.

As of June 30, 2008 stock options representing 120,534 shares were not included in the calculation of earnings per share as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

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

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

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

SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements,” defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurement and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follow:

Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy:

Table of Contents

Securities

Where quoted prices are available in an active market, securities are classified within level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. Level 1 securities would include highly liquid government bonds, mortgage products and exchange traded equities. If quoted market prices are not available, then fair values are estimated by using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics, or discounted cash flow. Level 2 securities would include U.S. agency securities, mortgage-backed agency securities, obligations of states and political subdivisions and certain corporate, asset backed and other securities. In certain cases where there is limited activity or less transparency around inputs to the valuation, securities are classified within level 3 of the valuation hierarchy. Currently, all of the company’s securities are considered to be Level 2 securities.

Loans held for sale

Loans held for sale are required to be measured at lower of cost or fair value. Under SFAS No. 157, market value is to represent fair value. Management obtains quotes or bids on all or part of these loans directly from the purchasing financial institutions. Premiums received or to be received on the quotes or bids are indicative of the fact that cost is lower than fair value. At June 30, 2008, the entire balance of loans held for sale was recorded at its cost.

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.

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.

Table of Contents

The allowance consists of specific, general and unallocated components. The specific component relates to loans that are classified as doubtful or substandard. For such loans that are also classified as impaired, an allowance is established when the discounted cash flows (or collateral value or observable market price) of the impaired loan is lower than the carrying value of that loan. The general component covers non-classified loans and is based on historical loss experience adjusted for qualitative factors. An unallocated component is maintained to cover uncertainties that could affect management’s estimate of probable losses. The unallocated component of the allowance reflects that margin of imprecision inherent in the underlying assumptions used in the methodologies for estimating specific and general losses in the portfolio.

FINANCIAL OVERVIEW

The three main factors affecting the bank’s financial outlook at this time are the economy, the housing market and the bank’s relationship with BlueRidge Bank of Frederick, MD. The economy is barely keeping its head above the recession waters with only slight signs of growth. The Federal Reserve Board has indicated it will keep interest rates steady for the foreseeable future. However, the rate cuts earlier this year had an impact on the bank. The housing market continues to decline with very little activity expected in the near term. This not only affects our mortgage lending but also the commercial lending as a large portion of our commercial loans are tied to the housing market. In late 2007 the bank entered into an agreement with BlueRidge Bank to originate loans on behalf of BlueRidge Bank until they received their charter. In addition the bank had stock subscription dollars collected by BlueRidge on deposit. During the second quarter most of the loans originated by BCT were sold to BlueRidge Bank and the money on deposit was returned to BlueRidge. BCT anticipates a continuing relationship with BlueRidge as we participate in loans they are now originating but are over their legal lending limit.

Total assets of $297.9 million at June 30, 2008 are only slightly lower than the December 2007 total of $298.2 million. Decreases in loans held for sale (the result of selling the loans to BlueRidge Bank as agreed) and interest receivable were offset by increases in interest bearing deposits in financial institutions, loans, other real estate owned and bank premises. The increased balance in FHLB (interest-bearing deposit in financial institutions) was to pay off one remaining advance. Interest receivable declined because of lower interest rates. The increase in bank premises is due to the beginning of construction of an addition to the Charles Town branch of the bank. BCT’s $834 thousand investment in BlueRidge Bank is the main factor in the 9% increase in the other assets total.

Total deposits have increased $1.6 million or .64% at June 30, 2008 compared to December 31, 2007. The decrease in noninterest-bearing deposits is 3.6% at June 30, 2008 compared to December 31, 2007. Interest-bearing deposits have increased 1.2% during the same time period. Interest payable is down 28.3% compared to December 31, 2007. The loan from FHLB was paid off during the second quarter 2008. This accounts for the 100% decrease in long term debt.

The June 30, 2008 annualized return on average assets is 1.24% compared to 1.19% at December 31, 2007. At June 30, 2008 the annualized return on average equity is 12.80% compared to 12.51% at December 31, 2007. The leverage capital (equity to assets) ratio is 10.00% at June 30, 2008 compared to 9.99% at December 31, 2007. The Tier 1 capital (equity to total risk weighted assets) ratio is 13.47% at June 30, 2008 compared to 13.01% at December 31, 2007. The total capital (total equity to risk weighted assets) ratio is 14.64% at June 30, 2008 compared to 14.23% at December 31, 2007. All capital ratios are within the regulatory requirements.

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 examines the loan portfolio continuously with procedures that allow for problem loans and potential problem loans to be highlighted and monitored. 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.
