Net Interest Income

Tax-equivalent net interest margin for the second quarter of 2011 was 3.83% compared to 3.92% from the comparable quarter of 2010. Net interest income was $17.75 million for the second quarter of 2011, a decrease of $788 thousand, or 4.25%, from the second quarter of 2010. Total interest income was $23.34 million for the second quarter of 2011, a decrease of $2.82 million, or 10.78%, from the second quarter of 2010. The decrease in interest income reflects continued low loan demand and the Company's conservative deployment of excess cash to manage its long-term risk profile. The yield on loans decreased to 5.88% for the second quarter of 2011 from 6.04% in the same period of the prior year, while average loans decreased $23.54 million between the comparable periods to $1.37 billion as loan demand remains quite low. The Company continued to maintain a high level of liquidity with average overnight liquidity of $174.78 million during the second quarter of 2011.

Second quarter 2011 interest expense was $5.58 million, a decrease of $2.03 million, or 26.69%, from the second quarter of 2010. Second quarter 2011 deposit costs decreased $1.83 million compared to the second quarter of 2010, which was primarily due to a decrease in the average rate paid on interest-bearing deposits of 48 basis points to 0.95%. Compared to the second quarter of 2010, interest costs on borrowings decreased $199 thousand to $2.31 million for the second quarter of 2011, while the average balance decreased $42.14 million from the comparable period due to the redemption of various wholesale borrowings. The cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased 39 basis points during the second quarter of 2011 compared to the second quarter of 2010. Average interest-bearing liabilities decreased $88.89 million, or 5.01%, for the second quarter of 2011 compared with the second quarter of 2010, which included a decrease of $29.68 million in Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") borrowings and other long-term debt.

Provision

The provision for loan losses for the second quarter and first half of 2011 amounted to $3.08 million and $4.69 million, respectively. These compare very favorably to the provision for loan losses for the second quarter and first half of 2010 of $3.60 million and $7.26 million, respectively. The second quarter of 2011 marks the fourth consecutive quarter of provision decreases compared to the prior year's comparable quarter.

Noninterest Income

During the second quarter of 2011, wealth management revenues decreased $82 thousand, or 8.10%, to $930 thousand from the second quarter of 2010. The Wealth Management Division reported $892 million in assets under management at June 30, 2011. Service charges on deposit accounts were $3.35 million for the second quarter of 2011, an increase of $6 thousand, or 0.18%, from the second quarter of 2010. Insurance commissions were $1.56 million for the second quarter of 2011, an increase of $172 thousand, or 12.38%, from the previous year.

Noninterest Expenses

Noninterest expenses for the second quarter of 2011 increased $1.14 million, or 6.87%, compared to the second quarter of 2010. Salaries and employee benefits increased $198 thousand, or 2.33%, in the second quarter of 2011 compared to the same period in the prior year. Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") deposit insurance premiums decreased $296 thousand, or 41.69%, in the second quarter of 2011, compared to the second quarter of 2010, primarily due to the FDIC's change in assessment methodology for deposit insurance to one based on tangible assets. Other operating expenses were $5.90 million for the second quarter of 2011, an increase of $1.24 million, or 26.63%, from the second quarter of 2010. Expenses and losses associated with other real estate amounted to $1.76 million for the second quarter of 2011, compared with $485 thousand last year.

Conversion to State Charter

Effective with the close of business June 28, 2011, the Company's wholly-owned banking subsidiary became a Virginia state-chartered banking institution operating under the name First Community Bank. The change to a state charter does not affect operations or products, and customers continue to receive the same excellent service they have come to know with the First Community family of companies. The bank subsidiary will continue to operate as a Federal Reserve Bank member in the Federal Reserve Fifth District. The move does not affect FDIC insurance coverage. The move aligns the Company's primary bank regulation with the Virginia Bureau of Financial Institutions and the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond, both of which are based in the Company's home state of Virginia. Additionally, the Company expects to save approximately $150 thousand in annual regulatory assessments.

Credit Quality

The Company's loan quality measures at June 30, 2011, continue to compare favorably to the industry. Total loan delinquencies of 30 days or more, including non-accrual loans, as a percent of total loans were 2.12% at June 30, 2011. This compares favorably to the most recent Federal Reserve report of the Company's peer group of bank holding companies with total assets between $1 and $3 billion, which indicates peer total loan delinquencies of 4.39%. The ratio of allowance for loan losses as a percent of loans held for investment was 1.93% at June 30, 2011, compared to 1.93% at March 31, 2011, and 1.91% at December 31, 2010.

Total non-performing assets, which include unseasoned loan restructurings and other real estate owned, were 1.29% of total assets at June 30, 2011, and non-performing loans as a percentage of loans held for investment were 1.67%. These levels are much better by comparison with those in the Federal Reserve peer group, which were last reported as total non-performing assets to total assets of 3.18% and non-performing loans to total loans of 3.43%. Included in non-performing assets are $878 thousand of unseasoned loan restructurings at June 30, 2011.

Balance Sheet

Consolidated assets were $2.21 billion at June 30, 2011. Total stockholders' equity was $302.20 million at June 30, 2011, resulting in a book value per common share outstanding of $15.72, compared to total stockholders' equity of $269.88 million and a book value per common share of $15.11 at December 31, 2010. During the second quarter of 2011, the Company paid a $0.10 per share dividend on common shares.

Non-GAAP Presentations

The Company prepares its financial statements under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or "GAAP." However, this press release also refers to certain non-GAAP financial measures that we believe, when considered together with GAAP financial measures, provide investors with important information regarding our operational performance. An analysis of any non-GAAP financial measure should be used in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP.

Core earnings are a non-GAAP financial measure that reflects net income excluding non-recurring income and expense items, taxes, loan loss provisions, losses on other real estate owned, as well as gains, losses, impairment losses on securities, and goodwill impairments from net income. These excluded items are difficult to predict and we believe that core earnings provide the Company and investors with a valuable tool to evaluate the Company's financial results.

The adjusted efficiency ratio is a non-GAAP financial measure that is computed by dividing core non-interest expense by the sum of net interest income on a tax equivalent basis and core non-interest income. We believe that this measure provides investors with important information about our operating efficiency. Comparison of our adjusted efficiency ratio with those of other companies may not be possible because other companies may calculate the adjusted efficiency ratio differently.

Tangible book value is a non-GAAP financial measure that is defined as stockholders' equity less goodwill and other intangible assets.
