AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements March 31, 2001 (Unaudited) Note 1: Basis of Presentation ----------------------------- The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of First Community Bancshares, Inc. (the "Company") and its wholly owned subsidiaries, First Community Bank & Trust, a state chartered bank (the "Bank") and First Community Real Estate Management, Inc. ("FCREMI"). FCREMI holds and manages real estate used by the Company and the Bank. A summary of significant accounting policies is set forth in Note 1 of Notes to Financial Statements included in the December 31, 2000, Annual Report to Shareholders. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with instructions to Form 10-Q, and therefore do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. The interim consolidated financial statements at March 31, 2001, and for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, have not been audited by independent accountants, but reflect, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for such periods.

9 Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial ------- Condition and Results of Operations ------------------------------------------------- General ------- The Bank is a subsidiary of the Company and operates as an Indiana commercial bank. In 1998, the Company formed a new subsidiary, First Community Real Estate Management, Inc. whose purpose is to purchase and lease back to the Bank properties originally owned by the Bank thereby allowing the Bank to redeploy its capital for other uses. The Bank makes monthly lease payments to FCREMI as lessee of these locations. These lease payments are sufficient to service the debt incurred by FCREMI to purchase these properties. As a bank holding company, the Company depends upon the operations of its subsidiaries for all revenue and reports its results of operations on a consolidated basis with its subsidiaries. The Bank's profitability depends primarily upon the difference between the income on its loans and investments and the cost of its deposits and borrowings. This difference is referred to as the spread or net interest margin. The difference between the amount of interest earned on loans and investments and the interest incurred on deposits and borrowings is referred to as net interest income. Interest income from loans and investments is a function of the amount of loans and investments outstanding during the period and the interest rates earned. Interest expense related to deposits and borrowings is a function of the amount of deposits and borrowings outstanding during the period and the interest rates paid. Financial Condition ------------------- Total assets increased $3.6 million, or 2.4%, to $152.8 million at March 31, 2001, from $149.2 million at December 31, 2000. Net loans increased from $123.6 million on December 31, 2000 to $126.0 million on March 31, 2001. Deposits increased from $123.0 million on December 31, 2000 to $123.7 million on March 31, 2001. FHLB advances increased $2.5 million or 19.2% during the same time frame. Stockholders' equity was $9.6 million at March 31, 2001 as compared to $9.3 million at December 31, 2000. The Bank has continued to see demand in both its commercial real estate and installment sections of the loan portfolio during the first quarter ended March 31, 2001. These net loan increases of $2.4 million were primarily funded by new advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis. Management will seek out alternative funding sources, such as FHLB advances, from time to time when the terms of these funding sources outperform traditional deposit terms in the Bank's primary markets or for asset/liability matching purposes. Results of Operations --------------------- The Company had net income of $179,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2001 as compared to $103,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2000. This $76,000 increase in net income between the two periods represents a 73.8% increase. Net interest income was $1.2 million for both three month periods ended March 31, 2001 and March 31, 2000, respectively. The Company felt the effects of three rate drops, during the first quarter 2001, equal to a 1.50% decline in the fed funds rate, as determined by the board of governors of the Federal Reserve Bank. The Bank's deposits were not able to reprice in proportion to the interest-earning assets, which repriced during this same time frame. As a result, net interest income was relatively unchanged when comparing the quarter ended March 31, 2001 to the quarter ended March 31, 2000. This occurrence held true, even though the Bank had more interest earning assets and fewer interest-bearing liabilities on the books during the quarter ended March 31, 2001 when compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2000. Management continued to focus on increasing non-interest income and holding steady or reducing non-interest expenses during the quarter ended March 31, 2001. As a result of these efforts, non-interest income increased 10 $83,000 or 52.2% from $159,000 at March 31, 2000 to $242,000 at March 31, 2001. Non-interest income increased primarily due to increased service charges on deposit accounts of $45,000, and other operating income increasing $26,000 between March 31, 2001 and March 31, 2000. The increases in service charges on deposit accounts can be attributed to more demand deposit accounts being serviced by the Bank coupled with fee change differences between periods. The increases in other operating income is primarily due to ATM surcharges and cash surrender value increases on company owned life insurance. The Bank began surcharging foreign card transactions at its ATM's during the second quarter of 2000. Non-interest expenses also decreased $16,000 or 1.4% during the same comparable periods. Non-interest expense decreased as a result of a $43,000 decrease in other operating expense and a $39,000 decrease in printing and office supplies partially offset by increases of $40,000 and $25,000 in data processing fees and salaries, respectively. Management has made a commitment to continue to monitor all non-interest expenses to further reduce expenses when practicable. Income taxes increased $58,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001, when compared to the same period in 2000 primarily due to both the Company's increased pre-tax income and a decrease in the Company's tax exempt securities portfolio. The Company's effective tax rate was 18.3% during the quarter ended March 31, 2001 compared to having a tax benefit during the quarter ended March 31, 2000. Asset Quality ------------- The Bank currently classifies loans as substandard, doubtful and loss to assist management in addressing collection risks and pursuant to regulatory requirements which are not necessarily consistent with generally accepted accounting principles. Substandard loans represent credits characterized by the distinct possibility that some loss will be sustained if deficiencies are not corrected. Doubtful loans possess the characteristics of substandard loans, but collection or liquidation in full is doubtful based upon existing facts, conditions and values. A loan classified as a loss is considered uncollectible. As of March 31, 2001, the Bank had $1.4 million of loans classified as substandard, none as doubtful and none as loss. The allowance for loan losses was $1,032,014 or .82% of net loans receivable at March 31, 2001 compared to $1,007,174 or .82% of net loans receivable at December 31, 2000. A portion of classified loans are non-accrual loans. First Community had non-accrual loans totaling $568,000 at March 31, 2001 compared to $402,000 at December 31, 2000. Asset/Liability Management -------------------------- One of the actions undertaken by the Bank's management has been to adopt asset/liability management policies in an attempt to reduce the susceptibility of the Bank's net interest spread to the adverse impact of volatile interest rates by attempting to match maturities (or time-to-repricing) of assets with maturities or repricing of liabilities and then actively managing any mismatch. Accomplishing this objective requires attention to both the asset and liability sides of the balance sheet. The difference between maturity of assets and maturity of liabilities is measured by the interest-rate gap. At March 31, 2001, the Bank's one-year cumulative interest-rate gap as a percent of total assets was a negative 15.8%. This negative interest-rate gap represents substantial risk for the Bank in an environment of rising interest rates. A negative interest-rate gap means the Bank's earnings are vulnerable in periods of rising interest rates because during such periods the interest expense paid on liabilities will generally increase more rapidly than the interest income earned on assets. Conversely, in a falling interest-rate environment, the total interest expense paid on liabilities will generally decrease more rapidly than the interest income earned on assets. A positive interest-rate gap would have the opposite effect. Asset management goals have been directed toward obtaining a suitable balance of asset quality, liquidity and diversification in order to stabilize and improve earnings. The asset management strategy has concentrated on shortening the maturity of its loan portfolio by increasing adjustable-rate loans and short-term installment and 11 commercial loans. However, increasing short-term installment and commercial loans increases the overall risk of the loan portfolio. Such risk relates primarily to collection and to the loans that often are secured by rapidly depreciating assets. The Company's ratio of non-performing assets to total assets was .52% at March 31, 2001 and .46% at December 31, 2000. The primary goal in the management of liabilities has been to extend the maturities and improve the stability of deposit accounts. Management has attempted to combine a policy for controlled growth with a strong, loyal customer base to control interest expense. The following schedule illustrates the interest-rate sensitivity of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities at March 31, 2001. Mortgages which have adjustable or renegotiable interest rates are shown as subject to change every one to three years based upon the contracted-for adjustment period. This schedule does not reflect the effects of possible loan prepayments or enforcement of due-on-sale clauses.

12 Liquidity and Capital Resources ------------------------------- Liquidity refers to the ability of a financial institution to generate sufficient cash to fund current loan demand, meet savings deposit withdrawals and pay operating expenses. The primary sources of liquidity are cash, interest-bearing deposits in other financial institutions, marketable securities, loan repayments, increased deposits and total institutional borrowing capacity. Cash and interest-bearing deposits, when combined with investments, have remained a relatively constant percent of total assets, while increasing in dollar volume. Management's goal is to maintain approximately twenty percent (20%) to twenty-five percent (25%) of total assets in cash, interest-bearing deposits and investments in order to satisfy the Company's need for liquidity and other short-term obligations. Management believes that it has adequate liquidity for the Company's short- and long-term needs. Short-term liquidity needs resulting from normal deposit/withdrawal functions are provided by the Company retaining a portion of cash generated from operations in a Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") daily investment account. This account acts as a short-term liquidity source while providing interest income to the Company. Long-term liquidity and other liquidity needs are provided by the ability of the Company to borrow from the FHLB. The balance of its FHLB advances was $15.5 million at March 31, 2001 and $13.0 million at December 31, 2000, respectively. At March 31, 2001, the Bank had a tier 1 leverage ratio of approximately 6.9% and a total risk-based capital ratio of approximately 9.5%. The regulatory tier 1 leverage and total risk-based capital requirements are 4.0% and 8.0% respectively. Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices --------------------------------------- The financial statements and related data presented herein have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. These principles require the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars, without considering changes in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. The primary assets and liabilities of the Company are monetary in nature. Consequently, interest rates generally have a more significant impact on performance than the effects of inflation. Interest rates, however, do not necessarily move in the same direction or with the same magnitude as the price of goods and services. In a period of rapidly rising interest rates, the liquidity and the maturity structure of the Company's assets and liabilities are critical to the maintenance of acceptable performance levels.
