("FASB"(“FASB”) Statement 148.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICY UPDATE FOR CERTAIN REQUIRED DISCLOSURES: STOCK OPTIONSSummary of Significant Accounting Policy Update for Certain Required Disclosures: Stock Options
The Company has in existence a stock option plan for certain executives and directors accounted for under the intrinsic value
method in accordance with Accounting Principles Board ("APB") 25.method. Because the exercise price of theCompany'sCompany’s employee/director stock options equals the market price of the underlying stock on the date of grant, no compensation expense is recognized. The effect of option shares on earnings per share relates to the dilutive effect of the underlying options outstanding. To the extent the granted exercise share price is less than the current market price("(“in themoney"money”) there is an economic incentive for the shares to be exercised and an increase in the dilutive effect on earnings per share results.In December 2002,A new Omnibus Stock Option Plan was approved at the
FASB issued Financial Accounting Standards ("FAS") 148, "Accountingannual 2004 shareholder meeting to be used in conjunction with retention, recruitment and hiring of employees. 42,000 option shares and an additional 5,000 stock awards were granted and reserved forStock-Based Compensation." This new standard provides alternative methodsfuture issuance in May 2004 subject to acceptance oftransition for a voluntary changeagreements by the optionees. The maximum number of grants and awards under this Plan is limited tothe fair value method of accounting for stock-based compensation. In addition, the Statement amends the disclosure requirements of FAS 123 to require prominent disclosure in both annual and interim financial statements about the method of accounting for stock-based compensation and the underlying effect of the method used on reported results until exercised.200,000 shares.7

Discontinued Operations
On July 8, 2004

The maximum number of grants and awards under this Plan was limited to 200,000 shares. NOTE 2. DIVESTITURES On April 27, 2004, the CompanyFirst Community announced theproposedtermination of a previously announced sale of its mortgage subsidiary. While the mortgage banking subsidiary continues to be held for sale, termination of the previously announced sale led to the elimination of the wholesale portion of the mortgagesubsidiary reflectingcompany’s business and a substantial downsizing of theCompany's strategic plans for exitingremaining retail division. In connection with the exit of its wholesale mortgage banking business and as previously reported, the Company recorded impairment charges of $933,000 in the second quarter of 2004 (bringing total impairment charges to $1,385,000 for the first six months of 2004) to reduce the carrying value of the subsidiary to its estimated fair value less costs to sell. To facilitate its decision to exit the wholesale mortgage banking business, First Community has provided management and professional resources to settle the mortgage company’s wholesale interest rate lock commitments; has overseen a transition in management at the mortgage company; and has taken steps to reduce overhead for the company’s remaining mortgage business, which willallow greaterbe offered through its retail network. The strategic decision to exit the wholesale mortgage business will reduce the Company’s exposure to risk associated with the large fluctuations previously experienced in the volume-driven, wholesale business and its hedged interest rate lock commitments and closed loans. The change in strategic direction and decision to exit the wholesale mortgage business will permit the Company to focus its resources onthe Company'sits core community bankingbusiness.business, which has continued to grow and perform. Theproposed transaction involves a saleresults of100% of the stock of UFM to certain members of UFM's present management. Although completion of the transaction remains subject to the execution of a definitive agreement and satisfaction of the conditions which will be set forth therein, the proposed sale did result in a charge to net income of $651,000 in the first quarter of 2004. The parties anticipate that the proposed saleoperations of the mortgagesubsidiary will close bycompany are reported as discontinued operations. The loss from discontinued operations was $1.9 million or $0.17 per diluted share for the second quarter of 2004 and $3.3 million or $0.29 per diluted share for the six months ended June 30, 2004.NOTEThe business related to UFM is accounted for as discontinued operations and, therefore, the results of operations and cash flows have been removed from the Company’s results of continuing operations in accordance with FAS 144 for all periods presented in this document.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIESCommitments and ContingenciesIn the normal course of business, the Company is a defendant in various legal actions and asserted claims, most of which involve lending, collection and employment matters. While the Company and legal counsel are unable to assess the ultimate
9outcome of each of these matters with certainty, they are of the belief that the resolution of these actions, singly or in the aggregate, should not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of operations or cash flows of the Company. In
November, 2003May, 2004, the Company wassuednamed a party to an action filed in the Circuit Court of Nicholas County, West Virginia bytwo former employees of The CommonWealth Bank, alleging among other things, violation of employment law and breach of contract, stemming from their termination. TheFidelity & Guaranty Life Insurance Companyand counsel believe thatseeking to determine thelawsuit, which seeks damages of more than $180,000 in severance plus certain retirement and employee benefits and punitive damages for eachrights of thetwo former employeesCompany’s banking subsidiary and members of the LeRose family to $1,000,000 in life insurance proceeds paid on a life insurance policy previously assigned to the Bank as partial collateral for a multimillion indebtedness due and owing to the bank as a consequence of a kiting scheme. TheCommonWealth Bank is without merit, and intendslife insurance proceeds have been paid by the insurance company into a court-administered account for ultimate distribution tovigorously defend this matter.the rightful owner.The Company conducts mortgage banking operations through
UFM.UFM, which is discussed more fully under Note 2 “Discontinued Operations”. The majority of loans originated by UFM are sold to larger national investors on a service released basis. Loans are sold under loan sales agreements which contain various repurchase provisions. These repurchase provisions give rise to a contingent liability for loans which could subsequently be submitted to UFM for repurchase. The principal events which could result in a repurchase obligation arei.(i.) the discovery of fraud or material inaccuracies in a sold loan file andii.(ii.) a default on the first payment due after a loan is sold to the investor, coupled with a ninety day delinquency in the first year of the life of the loan. Other events and variations of these events could result in a loan repurchase obligation under terms of other loan sales agreements. The volume of contingent loan repurchases, if any, is largely dependent on the quality of loan underwriting and systems employed by UFM for quality control in the production of mortgage loans.UFM may remarket these loans to alternate investors after repurchase and cure of the loans' defects.To date, loans submitted for repurchase have not been material and have not had a material adverse effect on the results of operations, financial condition or liquidity of UFM or the Company.UFM also originates government guaranteed FHA and VA loans that are also sold to third party investors. The Department of Housing and Urban Development
("HUD"(“HUD”) periodically audits loan files of government guaranteed loans and may require UFM to execute indemnification agreements on loans which do not meet certain predefined underwriting guidelines or may require the repurchase of the underlying loan. To date, the number of required indemnification agreements, or loan repurchases have not been material and no subsequent losses have been incurred. Loan indemnifications and repurchases under the FHA,andVA and VHDA loan programs have not had a material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of operations or cash flows of UFM or the Company.UFM is subject to net worth requirements issued by HUD. Failure to meet these minimum capital requirements can result in certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on
UFM'sUFM’s operations. UFM was in compliance withHUD'sHUD’s minimum net worth requirement atMarch 31,June 30, 2004.UFM'sUFM’s adjusted tangible net worth for HUD purposes was$1.9 million$712,000 atMarch 31,June 30, 2004, which exceeded the HUD requirement.The Bank is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit, standby letters of credit and financial guarantees. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk beyond the amount recognized on the balance sheet. The contractual amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of involvement the Company has in particular classes of financial instruments. The
Company'sCompany’s exposure to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit and financial guarantees written is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments.12
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is not a violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each
customer'scustomer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Company, upon extension of credit is based onmanagement'smanagement’s credit evaluation of the counterparties. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment, and income-producing commercial properties.Standby letters of credit and written financial guarantees are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. To the extent deemed necessary, collateral of varying types and amounts is held to secure customer performance under certain of those letters of credit outstanding.
Financial instruments whose contract amounts represent credit risk at
March 31,June 30, 2004 are commitments to extend credit (including availability of lines of credit) of$97.2$128.4 million and standby letters of credit and financial guarantees written of$9.1$8.1 million. In addition, atMarch 31,June 30, 2004, UFM had commitments to originate loans of$137.7$44.6 million. Of these commitments, the fallout/pullthrough model employed by UFM identified$82.6$29.1 million that are anticipated to close.10In September 2003, the Company issued, through FCBI Capital Trust, $15.0 million of trust preferred securities in a private placement. In connection with the issuance of the preferred securities, the Company has committed to irrevocably and unconditionally guarantee the following payments or distributions with respect to the preferred securities to the holders thereof to the extent that FCBI Capital Trust has not made such payments or distributions and has the funds
therefor:therefore: (i) accrued and unpaid distributions, (ii) the redemption price, and (iii) upon a dissolution or termination of the trust, the lesser of the liquidation amountandincluding all accrued and unpaid distributionsandor the amount of assets of the trust remaining available for distribution.NOTENote 6.

RECENT ACCOUNTING DEVELOPMENTSRecent Accounting DevelopmentsOn March 9, 2004, the SEC issued SAB 105,
"Application“Application of Accounting Principles to LoanCommitments"Commitments” to inform registrants of theStaff'sStaff’s view that the fair value of the recorded loan commitments, that are required to follow derivative accounting under Statement 133,Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, should not consider the expected future cash flows related to the associated servicing of the future loan. The provisions of SAB 105 must be applied to loan commitments accounted for as derivatives that are entered into after March 31, 2004. Though the Companysellssold its loans through the discontinued segment on a servicing released basis, the Company adopted the provisions of SAB 105 on January 1, 2004 and this had the impact of reducing the fair value of such instruments by $252,000.In December 2003, the AICPA issued Statement of Position
("SOP"(“SOP”) 03-3"Accounting“Accounting for Certain Loans or Debt Securities Acquired in a Transfer". This statement, which is effective for loans acquired in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2004, addresses accounting for differences between contractual cash flows and cash flows expected to be collected from aninvestor'sinvestor’s initial investment in loans or debt securities (loans) acquired in a transfer if those differences are attributable, at least in part, to credit quality. This standard will require a fair value measure of loans acquired and as such no corresponding loss13
reserve will be permitted on
allloans acquired in a transfer that are within the scope of SOP 03-3. The impact of the Standard is prospective and will require new recognition and measurement techniques upon adoption.In May 2003 the FASB issued Statement 150, "Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity", which established standards for classification and measurement of certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. It requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances). Many of those instruments were previously classified as equity. This Statement is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003 subject to certain deferrals and modifications announced in February 2004. The adoption of this standard did not materially impact the financial statements of the Company. In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46 (FIN 46), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities which provides guidance on how to identify a variable interest entity (VIE) and determine when the assets, liabilities, non-controlling interests, and results of operations of a VIE need to be included in a company's consolidated financial statements. A company that holds variable interests in an entity is required to consolidate the entity if the company's interest in the VIE is such that the company will absorb a majority of the VIE's expected losses and/or receive a majority of the entity's expected residual returns, if they occur. FIN 46 also requires additional disclosures by primary beneficiaries and other significant variable interest holders. The provisions of this interpretation became effective upon issuance. In December 2003, the FASB reissued FIN 46. This guidance was effective for interests in certain VIE's as of December 31, 2003. The adoption of this Statement did not have a material adverse affect on the financial condition, results of operation or cash flows of the Company.In July 2003, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System issued a supervisory letter instructing bank holding companies to continue to include
thetrust preferred securities in their Tier 1 capital for regulatory capital purposes until notice12is given to the contrary. The Federal Reserve intends to review the regulatory implications of any accounting treatment changes and, if necessary or warranted, provide further appropriate guidance. ThereOn May 6, 2004, the Federal Reserve issued a proposed rule that would continue to allow trust preferred securities, such as the Trust, to constitute Tier 1 capital for bank holding companies. The proposed rules would impose stricter quantitative and qualitative limits on the Tier 1 treatment of trust preferred securities. Currently, trust preferred securities and qualifying perpetual preferred stock are limited in the aggregate to no more than 25% of a holding company’s core capital elements. The proposed rule would amend the existing limit by providing that restricted core capital elements (including trust preferred securities and qualifying perpetual preferred stock) can be noassurancemore than 25% of core capital, net of goodwill. It is possible that the Federal Reserve rules will not be adopted as proposed and that the Federal Reserve willcontinue to allow institutions to includeconclude that trust preferred securitiesinshould no longer be treated as Tier 1capital forregulatorycapital purposes.capital. AtMarch 31,June 30, 2004, $15 million in trust preferred securities issued by FCBI Capital Trust were outstandingthat areand treated as Tier 1 capital for bank regulatory purposes. IfFCBI'sFCBI’s outstanding trust preferred securities atMarch 31,June 30, 2004 were not treated as Tier 1 capital at that date,FCBI'sFCBI’s Tier 1 leverage capital ratio would have declined from8.98%6.97% to8.071%6.14%, its Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio would have declined from13.41%10.20% to12.06%8.99%, and its total risk-based capital ratio would have declined from14.71%11.48% to13.35%10.26% as ofMarch 31,June 30, 2004. These reduced capital ratios would continue to meet the applicable"well capitalized"“well capitalized” Federal Reserve capital requirements.On May 6, 2004, the Federal Reserve released for comment its position stating that trust preferred securities will continue to be included in Tier 1 Capital up to 25% of capital less goodwill.

Provision and Allowance for Loan Losses
The
Company'sCompany’s lending strategy stresses quality growth diversified by product, geography, and industry. All loans made by the Company are subject to common credit standards and a uniform underwriting system. Loans are also subject to an annual review process which varies based on the loan size and type. The Company utilizes this ongoing review process to evaluate loans for changes in credit risk. This process serves as the primary means by which the Company evaluates the adequacy of the loan loss allowance. The total loan loss allowance is divided into the following categories: i) specifically identified losses on loan relationships which are on non-accrual status, ninety days past due or more and loans with elements of credit weakness, and ii) formula allowances and special allocations addressing other qualitative factors including industry concentrations, economic conditions, staffing and other conditions.14
Specific allowances are established to cover loan relationships, which are identified as having significant cash flow weakness and for which a collateral deficiency may be present. The allowances established under the specific identification method are judged based upon the
borrower'sborrower’s estimated cash flow and projected liquidation value of related collateral.Formula allowances, based on historical loss experience, are available to cover homogeneous groups of loans not individually evaluated. The formula allowance is developed and evaluated against loans in general by specific category (commercial, mortgage, and consumer). The allowance is developed for each loan category based upon a review of historical loss percentages for the Company and other qualitative factors. The calculated percentage is considered in determining the estimated allowance excluding any relationships specifically identified and individually evaluated. While consideration is given to credit weaknesses for specific loans and classifications within the various categories of loans, the allowance is available for all loan losses.
In developing the allowance for loan losses, the Company also considers various inherent risk factors, such as current economic conditions, the level of delinquencies and non-accrual loans, trends in the volume and term of loans, anticipated impact from changes in lending policies and procedures, and any concentration of credits in certain industries or geographic areas. In addition, management continually evaluates the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses and makes specific adjustments to the allowance based on the results of risk analysis in the credit review process, the recommendation of regulatory agencies, and other factors, such as loan loss experience and prevailing economic conditions.

APPLICATION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
First
Community'sCommunity’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance withaccounting principlesU. S. generally acceptedin the United States of Americaaccounting principles and conform to general practices within the banking industry. FirstCommunity'sCommunity’s financial position and results of operations are affected bymanagement'smanagement’s application of accounting policies, including judgments made to arrive at the carrying value of assets and liabilities and amounts reported for revenues, expenses and related disclosures. Different assumptions in the application of these policies could result in material changes in FirstCommunity'sCommunity’s consolidated financial position and/or consolidated results of operations.Estimates, assumptions, and judgments are necessary principally when assets and liabilities are required to be recorded at estimated fair value, when a decline in the value of an asset carried on the financial statements at fair value warrants an impairment write-down or valuation reserve to be established, or when an asset or liability needs to be recorded based upon the probability of occurrence of a future event. Carrying assets and liabilities at fair value inherently results in more financial statement volatility. The fair values and the information used to record valuation adjustments for certain assets and liabilities are based either on quoted market prices or are provided by third party sources, when available. When third party information
15is not available, valuation adjustments are estimated in good faith by management primarily through the use of internal modeling techniques and/or appraisal estimates. 17
First
Community'sCommunity’s accounting policies are fundamental to understandingManagement'sManagement’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. The following is a summary of FirstCommunity'sCommunity’s more subjective and complex"critical“critical accounting policies."” In addition, the disclosures presented in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements and inmanagement'smanagement’s discussion and analysis, provide information on how significant assets and liabilities are valued in the financial statements and how those values are determined. Based on the valuation techniques used and the sensitivity of financial statement amounts to the methods, assumptions, and estimates underlying those amounts, management has identified the determination of the allowance for loan losses, the valuation of loans held for sale and the valuation of derivative instruments utilized in mortgage banking and hedging activity to be the accounting areas that require the most subjective or complex judgments.ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES:Allowance for Loan Losses:The allowance for loan losses is established and maintained at levels management deems adequate to cover losses inherent in the portfolio as of the balance sheet date and is based on
management'smanagement’s evaluation of the risks in the loan portfolio and changes in the nature and volume of loan activity. Estimates for loan losses are determined by analyzing historical loan losses, current trends in delinquencies and charge-offs, plans for problem loan resolution, the opinions ofFCBI'sFCBI’s regulators, changes in the size and composition of the loan portfolio and industry information. Also included inmanagement'smanagement’s estimates for loan losses are considerations with respect to the impact of economic events, the outcome of which are uncertain. These events may include, but are not limited to, a general slowdown in the economy, fluctuations in overall lending rates, political conditions, legislation that may directly or indirectly affect the banking industry and economic conditions affecting specific geographic areas in which First Community conducts business.As more fully described in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements and in the discussion included in the Allowance for Loan Losses section of
Management'sManagement’s Discussion and Analysis, the Company determines the allowance for loan losses by making specific allocations to impaired loans and loan pools that exhibit inherent weaknesses and various credit risk factors. Allocations to loan pools are developed giving weight to risk ratings, historical loss trends andmanagement'smanagement’s judgment concerning those trends and other relevant factors. These factors may include, among others, actual versus estimated losses, regional and national economic conditions, business segment and portfolio concentrations, industry competition and consolidation, and the impact of government regulations. The foregoing analysis is performed by theCompany'sCompany’s credit administration department to evaluate the portfolio and calculate an estimated valuation allowance through a quantitative and qualitative analysis that applies risk factors to those identified risk areas.This risk management evaluation is applied at both the portfolio level and the individual loan level for commercial loans and credit relationships while the level of consumer and residential mortgage loan allowance is determined primarily on a total portfolio level based on a review of historical loss percentages and other qualitative factors including concentrations, industry specific factors and economic conditions. The commercial and commercial real estate portfolios require more specific analysis of individually significant loans and the
borrower'sborrower’s underlying cash flow, business conditions, capacity for debt repayment and the valuation of secondary sources of payment (collateral). This analysis may result in specifically identified weaknesses and corresponding specific impairment allowances.The use of various estimates and judgments in the
Company'sCompany’s ongoing evaluation of the required level of allowance can significantly impact theCompany'sCompany’s results of operations and financial condition and may result in either greater provisions against earnings to increase the allowance or reduced provisions based uponmanagement'smanagement’s current view of portfolio and economic conditions and the application of revised estimates and assumptions.LOANS HELD FOR SALE, DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES: UFM providesLoans Held for Sale, Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities:UFM’s operations, currently included as discontinued operations, provided a distribution outlet for the sale of loans produced by
UFM'sUFM’s wholesale division (terminated in July 2004) and retail operations. It originates residential mortgage loans through its production offices located in Eastern Virginia and sells the majority of its loans through pooled commitments to national investors on a servicing released basis.In addition,Through June 30, 2004, UFMacquiresalso acquired loans from a network of wholesale brokers for subsequent resale to these national investors. UFM originates all loans with thepositiveintent to sell. Loans held for sale are stated at the lower of cost or market("LOCOM"(“LOCOM”). The LOCOM analysis on pools of homogeneous loans is applied on a net aggregate basis. Interest income with respect to loans held for sale is accrued on the principal amount outstanding. LOCOM valuation techniques applicable to loans held for sale are based on estimated market price indications for similar loans. Pricing estimates are established by participating mortgage purchasers and prevailing economic conditions. The majority of the loans held for sale have established market pricing indications. The loans held for sale portfolio originated by UFM atMarch 31,June 30, 2004 was$28.7$18.4 million compared to$18.2$17.7 million at December 31, 2003.Risks associated with this lending function include interest rate risk, which is mitigated through the utilization of financial instruments (commonly referred to as derivatives) to assist in offsetting the effect of changing interest rates. The Company accounts for these instruments in accordance with FASB Statement No. 133, as amended
"Accounting“Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activity."” This Statement established accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments16and for hedging activities. UFM uses forward mortgage contracts and options (short position sales and options) to manage interest rate risk in the pipeline of loans and interest rate lock commitments ("RLCs"(“RLCs”) from the point of the loan commitment18
to the subsequent allocation and delivery to outside investors. As a result of the timing from origination to sale, and the likelihood of changing interest rates, forward commitments and options are placed with counter-parties to attempt to counter the effect of changing interest rates. The options and forward commitments to sell securities are considered to be derivatives and, as such, are recorded on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value. The changes in the fair value of derivatives are reflected in the consolidated statements of income as gain or loss.
The fair value of the RLCs is based on prevailing interest rates, and the assumed probability of closing (pull-through). The assumption of a given pull-through percentage
alsoenters into the determination of the volume of derivative contracts. Pull-through assumptions are continually monitored for changes in the interest rate environment and characteristics of the pool of RLCs. Differences between pull-through assumptions and actual pull-through could result in a mismatch in the volume of security contracts corresponding to RLCs and lead to volatility in profit margins on the loan products ultimately delivered. As more fully described in Note8,7, to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements under Recent Accounting Developments, effective January 1, 2004, the Company adopted the valuation techniques used to measure loan commitments inarecent guidance issued by the SEC in Staff Accounting Bulletin("SAB"(“SAB”) 105. SAB 105 indicates that the value of internally generated loans has little or no value at inception separate from the servicing intangible that is created upon subsequent sale of the loan. Management applied SAB 105 in the first quarter of 2004 through the elimination of the servicing component of the sales price for the RLC valuation, which had a negative impact of $252,000 on the market value of the commitments outstanding.The valuation of RLCs is considered critical because of the impact of borrower behavior and the impact that this behavior pattern will have on the pull-through ratio during times of significant rate volatility. Customer behavior is modeled by a mathematical tool based upon historical pull-through experience; however, substantial volatility can be experienced, as has been the case over the last year, as a result of the general movement in mortgage rates. As a result, pull-through has varied significantly over this time period. While customer behavior is difficult to model, the mathematical tool utilized by UFM incorporates volatility derived from market data in an attempt to anticipate borrower reaction to market rate movements and the corresponding desired security coverage.
At
March 31,June 30, 2004, UFM held an investment in forward mortgage contracts with a notional value of$80.0$27.0 million and mortgage-backed security put options totaling $3.0 million. These instruments are collectively referred to as hedging instruments or securities. These contracts hedge interest rate risk associated with RLCs and closed loans not allocated to a forward commitment of$89.1$35.5 million. AtMarch 31,June 30, 2004, the fair value of the securities was a liability of$194,000,$267,000, which represents a$22,000$51,000 decrease in the fair value of the liability since December 31, 2003. The fair value of the RLCs atMarch 31,June 30, 2004 declined $288,000 from the fair value at December 31,2003.2003 including $252,000 related to the adoption of SAB 105.For the
threesix months endedMarch 31,June 30, 2004, the Companyincurred $695,000recognized $833,000 inthe cost ofgains on forward mortgage derivative contracts to originate and sell$111.4$282.4 million in loans, compared to the firstthreesix months of the prior year in which$223.2$472.3 million in loans were originated for sale with underlying forward mortgage contracts that cost$2.5$3.3 million. The lower cost of forward mortgage contracts between the two periods is reflective of the volatility of the pricing of these types of contracts during times of significant interest rate volatility. Although the pricing of the contracts was favorable to the Company in the current period,UFM'sUFM’s pricing and margin on loans sold were substantially less favorable as a result of the market pricing dynamics and significant competitive forces. The significant decrease in hedging cost as well as the market price of loans sold, demonstrate the potential volatility to earnings and the sensitivity to pull-through assumptions. The cost of these derivative contracts is included as a component ofmortgage bankingthe (loss) income from discontinued operations in the consolidated statements ofincome, which represents the net revenues associated with the origination, holding and sale of mortgage loans.income.RECENT ACQUISITIONS AND BRANCHING ACTIVITY
The Company acquired PCB Bancorp, Inc., a Tennessee-chartered bank holding company
("(“PCBBancorp"Bancorp”) after the close of business on March 31, 2004. PCB Bancorp has six full service branch offices located in Johnson City, Kingsport and surrounding areas in Washington and Sullivan Counties in East Tennessee. PCB Bancorp had total assets of $171 million, loans of $128 million and total deposits of $150 million as of the date of the merger. The assets, liabilities and results of operationswill behave been included in theCompany'sCompany’s financial statements beginning with the second quarter 2004.Under the terms of the
mergeracquisition agreement, shares of PCB Bancorp common stock were purchased for $40.00 per share in cash. The total deal value, including the cash-out of outstanding stock options, was approximately $36.0 million. Concurrent with the PCB Bancorpmerger,acquisition, Peoples Community Bank, the wholly-owned subsidiary of PCB Bancorp, was merged into First Community Bank,N.A,N.A., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.17In June 2003, the Company acquired CommonWealth, a Virginia-chartered commercial bank for total consideration of approximately $23.2 million. The merger was accomplished through the exchange of .9015 shares of the
Company'sCompany’s common stock valued at $30.50, cash, or a combination of theCompany'sCompany’s stock and cash equivalent to $30.50 for each share of19
CommonWealth common stock. At acquisition, CommonWealth had total assets of $136.5 million, net loans of $120.0 million and total deposits of $105.0 million.
In February 2004, as part of the Company’s planned expansion into the Central Piedmont area of North Carolina, the Company opened two loan production offices in Charlotte and Mount Airy, North Carolina. The Charlotte office has since been converted to a full-service branch. Also, in the second quarter of 2004, two new loan production offices were opened, or were in the process of being opened in Norfolk and Blacksburg, Virginia.
In the second and third quarters of 2003, the Company opened three de novo branches in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. The Company does not anticipate that these branches will be profitable until market development has proven successful and adequate loan balances and corresponding loan revenue are established to support the added facilities, infrastructure and other operating costs of these branches.
As part of the Company's planned expansion into the Central Piedmont area of North Carolina, the Company also opened two loan production offices in Charlotte and Mount Airy, North Carolina in February 2004.In January 2003, the Bank completed the acquisition of Stone Capital, based in Beckley, West Virginia. This acquisition expanded the
Bank'sBank’s operations to include a broader range of financial services, including wealth management, asset allocation, financial planning and investment advice. Stone Capital atMarch 31,June 30, 2004 had total assets of$61$67.4 million under management and continues to operate under its name. Stone Capital was acquired through the issuance of 8,409 shares of Company common stock, which represents 50% of the total consideration. In 2003, Stone Capital exceeded the annual revenue requirement outlined in the acquisition agreement and another 2,541 shares were paid to the original shareholders subsequent to December 31, 2003. The balance of the remaining consideration ($175,000) is payable over the next two years in the form of Company common stock, subject to the achievement of minimum revenue requirements set forth in the acquisition agreement.RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

earnings with thatFirst Community announced the termination of2003,a previously announced sale of its mortgage subsidiary. While thereduction in the Company's earnings was largely attributable to a $1.9 million decline in net income from the mortgage-banking segment. Reduced loan production and margins in the segment, combined with an impairment charge of $651,000, produced the decline inmortgage bankingnet income. The community-banking segment reported segment net incomesubsidiary continues to be held for sale, termination of$5.7 million, which represents a decrease fromthecommunity banking segment net income of $6.4 million in the first quarter of 2003. The decrease is attributed, in part, to increased overhead and operating expense relativepreviously announced sale led to thedevelopment and growthelimination of theCompany into new markets. Thewholesale portion of the mortgagebanking segment losses ledcompany’s business and substantial downsizing of theBoard to pursue alternative strategies includingremaining retail division. In connection with the exit oftheits wholesale mortgage bankingbusiness. Inbusiness and as previously reported, thefirst quarter, the Company entered into negotiations with certain present executive officerscompany recorded impairment charges ofUFM which led to a letter of intent for the sale of the mortgage subsidiary being signed April 16, 2004. As a result, in the first quarter 2004, the aforementioned $651,000 impairment loss related to the planned disposal of that subsidiary was recorded. Plans are to close this transaction$933,000 in the second quarter of 2004subject(and $1,385,000 for the first six months of 2004) toexecution of a definitive agreement andreduce thesatisfactioncarrying value of theconditions set forth therein. NET INTEREST INCOME (SEE TABLEsubsidiary to its estimated fair value less costs to sell. To facilitate its decision to exit the wholesale mortgage banking business, First Community has provided management and professional resources to settle the mortgage company’s wholesale interest rate lock commitments; has overseen a transition in management at the mortgage company; and has taken steps to reduce overhead for the Company’s remaining mortgage business, which will be offered through its retail network. The strategic decision to exit the wholesale mortgage business will reduce the Company’s exposure to risk associated with the large fluctuations previously experienced in the volume-driven, wholesale business and its hedged interest rate lock commitments and closed loans. The change in strategic direction and decision to exit the wholesale mortgage business will permit the Company to focus its resources on its core community banking business, which has continued to grow and perform. The results of operations of the mortgage company are reported as discontinued operations. The loss from discontinued operations was $1.9 million or $0.17 per diluted share for the second quarter of 2004 and $3.3 million or $0.29 per diluted share for the six months ended June 30, 2004.Net Interest Income–Year-to-date Comparison (See Table I)
Net interest income, the largest contributor to earnings, was
$16.0$33.6 million for thethreesix months endedMarch 31,June 30, 2004 compared to$15.2$30.6 million for the corresponding period in 2003. For purposes of the following discussion, comparison of net interest income is done on a tax equivalent basis, which provides a common basis for comparing yields on earning assets exempt from federal income taxes to those which are fully taxable. As indicated in Table I, tax equivalent net interest income totaled$16.9$35.8 million for thethreesix months endedMarch 31,June 30, 2004, an increase of$0.8$3.4 million from the$16.1$32.4 million reported in the firstthreesix months of 2003. This$0.8$3.4 million increase was based ona $6.6an $8.4 million increase in volume as earning assets were added to the portfolioat declining replacement rates,which was partially offset by a$5.8$5.0 million reduction due to rate changes on the underlying assets as asset yields fell in the declining rate environment. Management was able to help counter the effect of the declining asset yield through aggressive management of deposit rates. Average earning assets increased$134.4$220.3 million while interest-bearing liabilities20
increased
$109.6$201.2 million. As indicated in Table I, the yield on average earning assets decreased6861 basis points from6.76%6.69% for thethreesix months endedMarch 31,June 30, 2003 to 6.08% for thethreesix months endedMarch 31,June 30, 2004. However, this decrease was largely offset by a5247 basis point decline in the cost of funds during the same period leaving the net interest rate spread (the difference between interest income on earning assets and expense on interest bearing liabilities) lower at4.10%4.20% compared to4.24%4.34% for the same period last year. TheCompany'sCompany’s tax equivalent net interest margin of4.41%4.48% for thethreesix months endedMarch 31,June 30, 2004 decreased2325 basis points from4.64%4.73% in 2003.18The largest contributor to the decrease in the yield on average earning assets in 2004, on a volume-weighted basis, was the decrease in the overall tax equivalent yield on loans held for investment of
7877 basis points from the prior year to6.79%6.68%, as loans repriced downward in response to the declining rate environment while the average balance increased$109.5$172.3 million. The decline in asset yield is attributable to the current interest rate environment which creates refinancing or repricing incentives for fixed rate borrowers to lower their current borrowing costs. In addition, due to the volume of loans directly tied to prime and other indices that are either adjustable incrementally or are variable rate advances, asset yields have declined in response to rate cuts and drops in the prime loan rate which began in2001 and remain at a level not seen since 1959. The balance of average loans held for sale decreased by $34.5 million while the yield increased 25 basis points to 5.40%. The yield on loans held for sale is much more sensitive to interest rate change since these loans are only held for 30 to 60 days and are replenished with new loan volume at the then prevailing rates. The change in rate on this pool of loans is reflective of the volatility experienced in mortgage rates and the underlying mortgage-backed securities into which they are delivered.2001.During the
threesix months endedMarch 31,June 30, 2004, the taxable equivalent yield on securities available for sale decreased6450 basis points to4.79%4.65% while the average balance increased by$60.3$57.8 million. Consistent with the current rate environment, the Company and the securities industry as a whole have experienced rapid turnover in securities as higher yielding securities are either called or prepaid as the refinancing opportunity presents itself. Although the total portfolio grew by$60.3$57.8 million fromMarch 31,June 30, 2003, the relative rate on securities acquired since that time has declined substantially. The increasing average security balance is the result of continued reinvestment of available funds largelycreated by higher average deposit levels.through bank acquisitions. Thefirst quarterJune 30, 2004 average balance of investment securities held to maturity decreased by$3.0$2.9 million to$37.6$37.3 million while the yield decreased40only 10 basis points to7.65%7.99% compared to thefirst quarter 2003.June 30, 2003 year-to-date average yield of 8.09%.Compared to the
first three months ofJune 30, 2003 average interest-bearing balances with banks of$63.2$41.2 million,increased $4.6these funds decreased $4.2 million while the yield decreased189 basis points to1.27%1.47%.This average balance increase was largely the result of funds received from new deposit growth in existing markets and deposits obtained in the acquisition of CommonWealth in the second quarter of 2003 as well as the continued cash flow roll-off experience in the loan and investment portfolio.The Company actively manages its product pricing by staying abreast of the current economic climate and competitive forces in order to enhance repricing opportunities available with respect to the liability side of its balance sheet. In doing so, the cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased by
5247 basis points from2.51%2.35% for thethreesix months endedMarch 31,June 30, 2003 to1.99%1.88% for the same period of 2004 while the average volume increased$109.6$201.2 million. Active deposit liability pricing management is performed weekly.When comparing the
threesix months endedMarch 31,June 30, 2004 to the corresponding period of the prior year, the 2004 average balance of FHLB and other short-term convertible and callable borrowings increased by$45.8$71.2 million in 2004 to$145.8$126.2 million while the rate decreased151228 basis points to4.39%4.47%, the result ofadditional FHLB borrowings (at lower rates) inthe additiontoof balances acquired with the CommonWealthBankand PCB acquisitions and the addition of new advances at lower rates which partially funded the PCB acquisition. The average balance of all other borrowings increased $7 million for the firstthreesix months of 2004vs.versus 2003 as a result of the issuance of $15 million in trust preferred securitiesandlate in therepaymentthird quarter ofan $8 million FHLB advance2003 while the rate paid decreased106105 basis points.Average fed funds and repurchase agreements increased
$3.1$9.1 million atMarch 31,June 30, 2004, while the average rate decreased6765 basis points compared to the same period in 2003. In addition, the average balances of interest-bearing demand and savings deposits increased$34.6$71.2 million and$11.5$26.4 million, respectively, for thefirst quartersix months ended June 30, 2004 while the corresponding average rate paid on these deposit categories declined1821 and2113 basis points, respectively. Average time deposits increased$7.7$16.4 million while the average rate paid decreased6559 basis points from3.14%3.05% in 2003 to2.49%2.46% in 2004. The level of average non-interest-bearing demand deposits increased$28.6$40.0 million to$186.1$204.3 million atMarch 31,June 30, 2004 compared to the corresponding period of the prior year. Average interest bearing deposits and non-interest bearing demand deposits for theformeracquired CommonWealth Bank branches totaled$60$64.9 million and$23.3$25.6 million at June 30, 2004 and $8.8 million and $4.9 million at June 30, 2003. Included in the June 30, 2004 average balances related to the PCB acquisition for interest-bearing and non-interest bearing deposits were $67.7 million and $9.0 million at June 30, 2004, respectively.Net Interest Income –Quarterly Comparison (See Table II)
Net interest income for the quarter ended June 30, 2004 was $17.6 million compared to $15.5 million for the same period in 2003, an increase of $2.1 million. Likewise, tax equivalent net interest income increased $2.5 million from $16.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2003, to $18.9 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2004 (refer to Table II). A 46 basis point decrease in the rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities partially offset a 53 basis point decline in the average rate earned on interest-earning assets, resulting in a decrease in the net interest margin of 18 basis points to 4.51% for the quarter ended June 30, 2004. While the net interest margin decreased, average earning assets increased $277.6 million in the second quarter of 2004 compared to the second quarter of 2003 resulting in the improvements in net interest income. The largest increases in average earning assets included increases in average loans held for investment of $240.9 million and securities available for sale of $55.5 million. In the second quarter of 2004, average interest-bearing deposits with banks decreased $13.2 million and Fed Funds Sold decreased $427,000. The $2.4 million increase in net
21
interest income was achieved through the combined effect of changes in volume and corresponding rates on the underlying assets and liabilities. Earnings attributable to the net volume increase in earning assets over paying liabilities was approximately $9.4 million while the effect of declining rates represented an offsetting net reduction of approximately $6.9 million for a combined effect on net interest income of $2.4 million. The volume driven increase in net interest income is largely attributable to the PCB acquisition which contributed $1.3 million in net interest income in the second quarter of 2004 following the March 31,
2004. 192004 consummation. As previously mentioned, the impact of the declining interest rate environment continued to reduce asset yields as assets repriced into lower interest rate products and as securities were replaced with lower yielding instruments reflecting the lower rate environment. This refinancing/repricing scenario is reflected in all categories of interest earning assets. Management continues to focus on margin enhancement by funding the balance sheet growth with lower priced deposits and borrowings without significantly extending balance sheet duration (the weighted average maturity) in anticipation of future rate increases.
Similar to the decline in asset yields created by the current interest rate cycle, deposit and borrowing costs also have been adjusted when possible to obtain this benefit on the liability side of the balance sheet. As previously mentioned, management continues to strive for lower cost funding in light of falling asset yields. Management monitors the overall performance of assets and interest-bearing liabilities through the Company’s product management group. Total interest-bearing liabilities increased $256.4 million with average interest-bearing deposits increasing $174.2 million. The average rate on paying liabilities and deposits dropped 46 and 51 basis points, respectively. For the same periods, average Fed Funds purchased and repurchase agreements increased $11.7 million while the average rate decreased 56 basis points. Average short-term borrowings increased $63.6 million while the rate decreased 163 basis points and long-term borrowings increased $7.0 million while the rate decreased 107 basis points.

The allowance is increased by charges to earnings in the form of provisions for loan losses and recoveries of prior loan charge-offs, and decreased by loans charged off. The provision for loan losses is calculated to bring the allowance to a level, which, according to a systematic process of measurement, reflects the amount needed to absorb probable losses within the portfolio.
Management performs monthly assessments to determine the appropriate level of allowance. Differences between actual loan loss experience and estimates are reflected through adjustments that are made by either increasing or decreasing the loss provision based upon current measurement criteria. Commercial, consumer and mortgage loan portfolios are evaluated separately for purposes of determining the allowance. The specific components of the allowance include allocations to individual commercial credits and allocations to the remaining non-homogeneous and homogeneous pools of loans.
Management'sManagement’s allocations are based on judgment of qualitative and quantitative factors about both macro and micro economic conditions reflected within the portfolio of loans and the economy as a whole. Factors considered in this evaluation include, but are not necessarily limited to, probable losses from loan and other credit arrangements, general economic conditions, changes in credit concentrations or pledged collateral, historical loan loss experience, and trends in portfolio volume, maturities, composition, delinquencies, and non-accruals. While management has attributed the allowance for loan losses to various portfolio segments, the allowance is available for the entire portfolio.The allowance for loan losses was
$14.5$16.2 million onMarch 31,June 30, 2004, compared to $14.6 million at December 31, 2003 and$13.8$15.7 million onMarch 31,June 30, 2003. The allowance for loan losses represents405%614% of non-performing loans atMarch 31,June 30, 2004, versus488.6%489% and343%597% at December 31, 2003 andMarch 31,June 30, 2003, respectively. When other real estate is combined with non-performing loans, the allowance equals236%337% of non-performing assets atMarch 31, 2003June 30, 2004 versus 288% and210%290% at December 31, 2003 andMarch 31,June 30, 2003, respectively. The increase in the allowance sinceMarchJune 2003 and December 2003 is primarily attributable to the acquisition ofCommonWealth BankPCB and the application of various changes in risk factors specific to this portfolio. The allowance attributable to theCommonWealth BankPCB portfolio at the date of acquisition was$1.6$1.8 million.FCBI'sFCBI’s allowance for loan loss activity for the six and three month periods ended

Based on the allowance for loan losses of approximately
$14.5$16.2 million, $14.6 million and$13.8$15.7 million atMarch 31,June 30, 2004, December 31, 2003, andMarch 31,June 30, 2003, respectively, the allowance to loans held for investment ratio was1.431.36% atboth March 31,June 30, 2004,and1.43% at December 31, 2003vs. 1.54and 1.53% forMarch 31,June 30, 2003. Management considers the allowance adequate based upon its analysis of the portfolio as ofMarch 31,June 30, 2004.The provision for loan losses for the
threesix month period endedMarch 31,June 30, 2004 decreasedslightlyto$532,000$1.3 million when compared to thethreesix month period endingMarch 31,June 30, 2003 at$589,000.$1.9 million. The decrease is largely attributable to improving asset quality and loan loss history, changes in risk factors assigned and a decline in volume within certain portfolio segments. Net charge-offs for the firstthreesix months of 2004andwere $1.5 million, down 31.8% from $2.2 million for the corresponding periodof 2003 were $620,000 and $1.2 million, respectively.in 2003. Expressed as a percentage of average loans held for investment, net charge-offs decreased from0.13%0.24% for thethree month period ofsix months ended June 30, 2003 to0.06%0.14% for the same period of 2004. The decrease in net charge-offs is primarily attributable to an approximate $1 million charge-off that occurred during the first quarter 2003.NON-INTEREST INCOMENet charge-offs for the quarters ended June 30, 2004 and June 30, 2003 were $885,000 and $966,000, or 0.08% and 0.10%, respectively, of average loans held for investment.Non-interest Income
Non-interest income consists of all revenues which are not included in interest and fee income related to earning assets. Total non-interest income
decreasedincreased approximately $2.3 million, or 37.8%, from$6.0$6.5 million for thethreesix months endedMarch 31,June 30, 2003 to$3.8$8.8 million for the corresponding period in 2004.WhileThe largest contributor to the increase was the result of security gains of25
$1.4 million realized upon the decision to capture appreciation inherent in a $25.0 million portion of the corporate bond sector of the Company’s available-for-sale investment portfolio, the market value of which continued to decline in step with the flattening of the Treasury yield curve. The proceeds from the sale of these securities provided sufficient liquidity to pay-off overnight borrowings and assisted the Company in funding increased loan demand. Along with an increase in deposits stemming from bank acquisitions, service charges on deposit accounts increased $454,000 or 11.9% while other service charges, commissions and fees reflected gains of $203,000 or 19% and all other operating income increased $364,000.
Total non-interest income of $5.6 million for the second quarter of 2004 increased $2.1 million compared to the second quarter of 2003. $1.4 million of this increase was the aforementioned security gains realized in June 2004. Service charges on deposit accounts and other service
21charges, commissions and fees reflected gains of 7.6% and 9%, respectively, theincreased $556,000 in aggregate while all other non-interest incomecategory decreased because ofincreased $366,000.As mentioned previously, UFM’s operating income was previously reported as non-interest income from the
decrease of $2.5 million inCompany’s mortgage bankingincome. Non-interest incomesegment but is now reported as discontinued operations in themortgage banking subsidiary, UFM, declined from $3.0 million in 2003 to $507,000 in 2004. The end of unprecedented refinance activity in the latter half of 2003, coupled with rate volatility and changes in price expectations by national investors who buy these loans and brokers who provide wholesale production, as well as the impact of SAB 105, caused a decline in the fair value of the mortgage pipeline, related securities and mortgage earnings. The following table details the components of UFM's mortgage banking income included in non-interest income for the periods ended March 31.

At March 31, 2004, UFM held an investment in forward mortgage contracts with a notional value of $80 million and mortgage-backed security put options totaling $3 million. These contracts are used in an attempt to hedge interest rate risk associated with RLCs and closed loans not allocated to a forward commitment of $89.1 million. At March 31, 2004, the fair value of the securities was a liability of $194,000, which represents a $22,000 reduction in the fair value of the liability since December 31, 2003. In addition, the fair value of the RLCs at March 31, 2004 was recorded in accordance with recent guidance issued by the SEC under SAB 105 was recorded as $60,000. The market valuation of RLCs at March 31, 2004 assumes a 63.81% RLC pull-through. If actual pull-through in succeeding months proves to be more or less than 63.81%, the full market value of RLCs may or may not be realized and/or the valuation of RLCs may change. For the period ended March 31, 2004, the Company incurred $695,000 in the cost of forward mortgage derivative contracts and options to originate and sell $111.4 million in loans compared to the prior year in which $223.2 million in loans were originated for sale with underlying forward mortgage contracts that cost $2.5 million. The cost of forward mortgage contracts between the two periods is reflective of the volatility of the pricing of these types of contracts during times of significant interest rate volatility. Although the pricing of the contracts was favorable to the Company in the current year, UFM's pricing and margin on loans sold were substantially less favorable as a result of the market pricing dynamics and significant competitive forces. The significant decrease in hedging cost, as well as the market price of loans sold, demonstrates the potential volatility to earnings and the sensitivity to pull-through assumptions. The cost of these derivative contracts is included as a component of mortgage banking income in the consolidated statements of income, which represents the net revenues associated with the origination, holding and sale of mortgage loans. 22NON-INTEREST EXPENSECompany’s Consolidated Financial Statements.Non-interest Expense
Non-interest expense totaled
$13.4$23.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004, increasing$2.2$5.6 million, or20%32.2% over thefirst quartersame period of 2003. This increase is primarily attributable toan $880,000a $3.3 million increase in salaries and benefits as a result of the addition of CommonWealth Bank in June 2003 ($431,000)836,000), the acquisition of PCB in the second quarter of 2004 ($589,000), the salaries and benefits associated with three North Carolina de novo branches opened in late 2003,as well asthe opening of two new North Carolina loan production offices in the first quarter of 2004 ($255,000)661,000), and two new loan production offices in Virginia ($41,000), as well as a general increase in salaries and benefits as staffing needs at several locations were satisfied in order to support added corporate services and continued branch growth.In 2004, occupancy and furniture and equipment expense increased by
$245,000$768,000 compared to 2003. The general level of occupancy cost grew largely as a result of the CommonWealth Bank acquisition ($90,000) as well as188,000), the PCB acquisition ($183,000), increases in depreciation and insurance costs associated with new de novo branches ($51,000)115,000) and depreciation associated witha significantcontinued investment in operating equipment and technology infrastructure.All other operating expense accounts increased
$1.1$1.5 million, compared to 2003.This increase included the previously discussed $651,000 impairment charge related to the mortgage banking segment andIncluded were increases in other operating expenses largely related to the additional costsand other operating expensesassociated with the opening of three new branches in Winston-Salem and two loan production offices in Charlotte and Mount Airy, North Carolina ($190,000), the opening of two loan production offices in Virginia, the acquisition of The CommonWealth Bank in Richmond,Virginia. INCOME TAXVirginia ($108,000) and the Tennessee acquisition of PCB ($173,000).As mentioned in the year-to-date discussion, other non-interest expenses were significantly impacted by the Company’s acquisition and branching activity. Total non-interest expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2004 increased $3.5 million over the same period in 2003. $1.9 million of this increase was an increase in salaries and benefits. Occupancy and furniture and fixtures increased $479,000 in aggregate, and amortization of intangibles increased $60,000. All other operating expenses increased $1.1 million.
Income Taxes
The effective income tax rate continues to benefit from the utilization of tax-exempt municipal securities. Municipal securities, which have offered an attractive tax equivalent yield, have assisted in
counteringmitigating the effect of the declining interest rate environment. TheCompany'sCompany’s effective tax rate was29.4%28.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 28.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2003. Tax benefit (expense) associated with discontinued operations was ($952,000) and $606,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively, and ($502,000) and $333,000 for the three months endedMarch 31,June 30, 2004 and28.9% for the three months ended March 31,2003.FINANCIAL POSITION

Securities available for sale are recorded at their estimated fair market value. The unrealized gain or loss, which is the difference between amortized cost and estimated market value, net of related deferred taxes, is recognized in thestockholders'stockholders’ equity section of the balance sheet as either accumulated other comprehensive income or loss. The unrealizedgainslosses after taxes of$6.7$2.0 million atMarch 31,June 30, 2004, representan increasea decrease of$1.7$7.0 million from the $5.0 million gain at December 31, 2003,due tothe result of market valueincreasesadjustments in reaction to rate movements on similar instruments as well as gains realized on sales completed in the firstthreesix months of 2004.Although substantial
investmentreinvestment has been made in the available for sale security portfolio, the Company has attempted to maintain a shorter portfolio duration (the cash-weighted term to maturity of the portfolio) to reduce the sensitivity of thebondsbond’s price to changes in interest rates and lessen interest rate risk. The longer the duration, the greater the impact of changing market rates for similar instruments. AtMarch 31,June 30, 2004, the average estimated life of the investment portfolio was4.64.7 years (reflective of currently anticipated prepayments). This compares to 4.2 years at December 31, 2003. The approximate45 month increase in average duration reflects the substantial amount of portfolio replacement over the lasttwelvesix months and investment in longer-term municipal securities.LOAN PORTFOLIO LOANS HELD FOR SALE: The relative size ofLoan Portfolio
Loans Held for Sale:As mentioned previously in this report, the
portfolio of loans originated by the Company's mortgage brokerage division, UFM, and held for sale, was impacted significantly by the refinancing activity that occurred during 2003 and continues into 2004 as a result of the low interest rate environment. Loans held for sale fluctuate on a daily basis reflecting retail originations, wholesale purchases and sales to investors. At March 31, 2004,loans held for salewere $28.7 million comparedby UFM are carried as assets related to$18.2 23million at December 31, 2003. Averagediscontinued operations on the balance sheet and have been removed from continuing operations. The remaining balance of loans held for sale,(which$774,000, isa better indicator of volume maintained)held by the Bank through the newly acquired branches in Tennessee.Loans Held for
the first quarter 2004, was down by 17%, when comparing the first quarter 2004 average of $15.1 million to the trailing quarter average of $18.2 million and down 70% compared to the first quarter 2003 average of $49.6 million.

Ongoing activity within the classification and categories of non-performing loans continues to include collections on delinquencies, foreclosures and movements into or out of the non-performing classification as a result of changing customer business conditions. The$595,000 increase$958,000 decrease in non-accrual loans during thefirstsecond quarter of 2004 is largely the result of anadditionelimination through write-down, foreclosure and sale of a commercial real estate loan in the amount of $903,000, while certain non-accrual loans were paid, moved to a current status as a result of improved performance, or were liquidated through foreclosure or repossession.

Other real estate owned is carried at the lesser of estimated net realizable fair market value or cost.In addition to loans which are classified as non-performing and impaired, the Company closely monitors certain loans which could develop into problem loans. These potential problem loans present characteristics of weakness or concentrations of credit to one borrower. Among these loans at
March 31,June 30, 2004 was a loan of $12.8 million which warrants close monitoring of a borrower within the hospitality industry. The loan represents the retained portion of a $16 million total loan shared with a participating bank.As with other hospitality industry firms, the borrower has experienced reduced cash flow associated with declines in the level of hotel occupancy.The loan is secured by real estate improved with a national franchise hotel and parking building in a major southeast city. The loan is further secured by the guarantee of the principals of the borrowing entity. This loan, which was originated in 1999, performed according to terms until it displayed delinquency in February and March 2003 and was subsequently brought current. The loan remains current as to principal and interest atMarch 31,June 30, 2004.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCESQuantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market RiskLiquidity and Capital Resources
The Company maintains a significant level of liquidity in the form of cash and cash equivalent balances ($
78.656.3 million), investment securities available for sale ($443.8429.5 million) and Federal Home Loan Bank credit availability of approximately$361.8$411.2 million. Cash and cash equivalents as well as advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank are immediately available for satisfaction of deposit withdrawals, customer credit needs and operations of the Company. Investment securities available for sale represent a secondary level of liquidity available for conversion to liquid funds in the event of extraordinary needs. The Company also maintains approved lines of credit with correspondent banks as backup liquidity sources.The Company maintains a liquidity policy as a means to manage the liquidity risk process and associated risk. The policy includes a Liquidity Contingency Plan that is designed as a tool for the Company to detect liquidity issues promptly in order to protect depositors, creditors and shareholders. The Plan includes monitoring various internal and external indicators such as changes in core deposits and changes in market conditions. It provides for timely responses to a wide variety of funding scenarios ranging from changes in loan demand to a decline in the
Company'sCompany’s quarterly earnings to a decline in the market price of theCompany'sCompany’s stock. The Plan calls for specific responses designed to meet a wide range of liquidity needs based upon assessments on a recurring basis by management and the Board of Directors.INTEREST RATE RISKInterest Rate Risk (IRR)
AND ASSET/LIABILITY MANAGEMENTand Asset/Liability ManagementWhile the Company continues to strive to decrease its dependence on net interest income, the
Bank'sBank’s profitability is dependent to a large extent upon its ability to manage its net interest margin. The Bank, like other financial institutions, is subject to interest rate risk to the degree that its interest-earning assets reprice differently than its interest-bearing liabilities. The Bank manages its mix of assets and liabilities with the goals of limiting its exposure to interest rate risk, ensuring adequate liquidity, and coordinating its sources and uses of funds. Specific strategies for management of IRR have included shortening the amortized maturity of fixed-rate loans and increasing the volume of adjustable rate loans to reduce the average maturity of theBank'sBank’s interest-earning assets.The
Company'sCompany’s risk profile continues to reflect a position that is asset sensitive. The substantial level of prepayments and calls on loans and securities are consistent with the low rate environment that prevailed over the pastyear, as well asyear. In addition, the success of deposit funding campaignsinstituted havehas led to a strong liquidity position as reflected in the level of cash reserves and due from balances of approximately$78.6$56.3 million. The Company continues to reinvest the funds generated from asset paydowns and prepayments within a framework that attempts to maintain an acceptable net interest margin in the current interest rate environment.In addition, the29
The discontinued mortgage operations of UFM
useused investments commonly referred to as"forward"“forward” transactions and"options"“options” or derivatives to balance the risk inherent in interest rate lock commitments made to prospective borrowers. The pipeline of loans is hedged to mitigate unusual fluctuations in the cash flows derived upon settlement of the loans with secondary market purchasers and, consequently, to achieve a desired margin upon delivery. Thehedge transactions are used for risk mitigation and are not for trading purposes. Thederivative financial instruments represented by these hedging transactions are recorded at fair value in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and the changes in fair value are reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Income.In addition,Until June 30, 2004, UFMutilizesutilized mortgage derivative contracts as an interest rate risk management tool to hedge against exposure to changing interest rates as loan commitmentsarewere originated. A more complete discussion of loans held for sale, derivative instruments and hedging activities and the underlying impact is included within theApplication of Critical Accounting Policiessection of theManagement'sManagement’s Discussion and Analysis included herein. After the close of business on June 30, 2004, a plan was implemented in conjunction with the UFM wholesale line of business divestiture to cease using hedging instruments on loan production. TheCompany'sremaining securities in place at June 30, 2004 will be settled through normal business channels and ongoing rate lock commitments will be given to borrowers subject to the Company’s placement with a purchaser/investor.The Company’s earnings sensitivity measurements completed on a quarterly basis indicate that the performance criteria, against which sensitivity is measured, are currently within the
Company'sCompany’s defined policy limits. A more complete discussion of the overall interest rate risk is included in theCompany'sCompany’s annual report on Form 10-K for December 31, 2003.PART I. ITEM 4.
