            **EMPLOYEE
                BENEFITS**





The
      Company's two subsidiary banks each have separate retirement and profit sharing
      plans which cover substantially all full time employees at each
      bank.





Capon
      Valley Bank has a defined contribution pension plan with 401(k) features that
      is
      funded with discretionary contributions by the Bank.  The bank matches
      on a limited basis the contributions of the employees.  Investment of
      employee balances is done through the direction of each
      employee.  Employer contributions are vested over a six year
      period.





The
      Grant
      County Bank is a member of the West Virginia Bankers' Association Retirement
      Plan.  Benefits under the plan are based on compensation and years of
      service with 100% vesting after seven years of service.  Prior to
      2002, the Plan's assets were in excess of the projected benefit obligations
      and
      thus the Bank was not required to make contributions to the Plan in 2003, 2002
      or 2001. The bank was required to make contributions in 2004, 2005 and 2006
      and
      made a contribution to the plan during the first quarter of 2007.  The
      Bank has recognized liabilities of $677,000 at March 31, 2007 as a result of
      this shortfall.  The following table provides the components of the net
      periodic benefit cost for the plan for the three month periods ended March
      31,
      2007 and 2006 (in thousands of dollars):

The
      following discussion focuses on significant results of the Company’s operations
      and significant changes in our financial condition or results of operations
      for
      the periods indicated in the discussion. This discussion should be read in
      conjunction with the preceding financial statements and related notes, as well
      as the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31,
      2006.

**Critical
      Accounting Policies**





The
      Company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting
      principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). The financial
      statements contained within these statements are, to a significant extent,
      financial information that is based on measures of the financial effects of
      transactions and events that have already occurred. A variety of factors could
      affect the ultimate value that is obtained either when earning income,
      recognizing an expense, recovering an asset or relieving a liability. In
      addition, GAAP itself may change from one previously acceptable method to
      another method. Although the economics of these transactions would be the same,
      the timing of events that would impact these transactions could
      change.





Disclosure
      of the Company’s significant accounting policies is included in Note Two to the
      Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K
      for the period ended December 31, 2006. Some of the policies are particularly
      sensitive, requiring significant judgments, estimates and assumptions by
      management.





The
      allowance for loan losses is an estimate of the losses that may be sustained
      in
      the loan portfolio. The allowance is based on two basic principles of
      accounting: (i) SFAS No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies, which requires that
      losses be accrued when they are probable of occurring and estimable and (ii)
      SFAS No. 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan, which requires
      that losses be accrued based on the differences between the value of collateral,
      present value of future cash flows or values that are observable in the
      secondary market and the loan balance. Additional information pertaining to
      the
      allowance for loan losses and provision for loan losses is contained on pages
      13-15 of this report.





The
      Company has invested in and owns life insurance policies on certain officers.
      The policies are designed so that the company recovers the interest expenses
      associated with carrying the policies and the officer will, at the time of
      retirement, receive any earnings in excess of the amounts earned by the Company.
      The Company recognizes as an asset the net amount that could be realized under
      the insurance contract as of the balance sheet date. This amount represents
      the
      cash surrender value of the policies less applicable surrender charges. The
      portion of the benefits which will be received by the executives at the time
      of
      their retirement is considered, when taken collectively, to constitute a
      retirement plan. Therefore the Company accounts for these policies using
      guidance found in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 106,
      "Employers' Accounting for Post Retirement Benefits Other Than Pensions.” SFAS
      No. 106 requires that an employers' obligation under a deferred compensation
      agreement be accrued over the expected service life of the employee through
      their normal retirement date. Assumptions are used in estimating the present
      value of amounts due officers after their normal retirement
      date.  These assumptions include the estimated income to be derived
      from the investments and an estimate of the Company’s cost of funds in these
      future periods.  In addition, the discount rate used in the present
      value calculation will change in future years based on market
      conditions.





During
      2005, the Company purchased all
      the outstanding shares of the National Bank of Davis. The net assets of this
      purchase were recorded at fair value, including goodwill. Goodwill represents
      the cost in excess of the fair value of net assets acquired (including
      identifiable intangibles) in transactions accounted for as
      purchases.  In accordance with provisions of SFAS No. 142,
      "*Goodwill and Other
      Intangible Assets*",
      goodwill is not amortized over an estimated useful life, but rather will be
      tested at least annually for impairment. Core deposit and other intangible
      assets include premiums paid for acquisitions of core deposits (core deposit
      intangibles) and other identifiable intangible assets.  Intangible
      assets other than goodwill, which are determined to have finite lives, are
      amortized based upon the estimated economic benefits
      received.

**Recent
      Accounting Pronouncements**





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





No
      other
      recent accounting pronouncements had a material impact on the Company’s
      consolidated financial statements, and it is believed that none will have a
      material impact on the Company’s operations in future years.





**Forward
      Looking Statements**





Certain
      statements in this report may constitute “forward-looking statements” within the
      meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
      1995.  Forward-looking statements are statements that include
      projections, predictions, expectations or beliefs about future events or results
      or otherwise are not statements of historical fact.  Such statements
      are often characterized by the use of qualified words (and their derivatives)
      such as “expect,” “believe,” “estimate,” “plan,” “project,” “anticipate” or
      other similar words.  Although the Company believes that its
      expectations with respect to certain forward-looking statements are based upon
      reasonable assumptions within the bounds of its existing knowledge of its
      business and operations, there can be no assurance that actual results,
      performance or achievements of the Company will not differ materially from
      any
      future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such
      forward-looking statements.  Actual future results and trends may
      differ materially from historical results or those anticipated depending on
      a
      variety of factors, including, but not limited to, the effects of and changes
      in:  general economic conditions, the interest rate environment,
      legislative and regulatory requirements, competitive pressures, new products
      and
      delivery systems, inflation, changes in the stock and bond markets, technology,
      downturns in the trucking and timber industries, effects of mergers and/or
      downsizing in the poultry industry in Hardy County, and consumer spending and
      savings habits.  Additionally, actual future results and trends may
      differ from historical or anticipated results to the extent: (1) any significant
      downturn in certain industries, particularly the trucking and timber industries
      are experienced; (2) loan demand decreases from prior periods; (3) the Company
      may make additional loan loss provisions due to negative credit quality trends
      in the future that may lead to a deterioration of asset quality; (4) the Company
      may not continue to experience significant recoveries of previously charged-off
      loans or loans resulting in foreclosure; and (5) the Company is unable to
      control costs and expenses as anticipated. The Company does not update any
      forward-looking statements that may be made from time to time by or on behalf
      of
      the Company.

**Overview
      of First Quarter Results**





Income
      for the quarter increased 11.65% as compared to the first quarter of 2006.
      Annualized return on average assets was 1.24% compared to 1.21% a year ago
      and
      annualized return on average equity for the quarter was 12.00% compared to
      11.78% for the first quarter of 2006.





The
      Company’s balance sheet continued its recent growth trend as balances of assets
      increased nearly $13.5 million from December 31, 2006 to March 31, 2007, an
      increase of 3.77%.





Net
      interest income, on a fully taxable equivalent basis increased 6.99% over the
      first quarter of 2006 as earning assets continued to increase.  From
      2006 to 2007, the Company experienced increases in the average rates earned
      on
      earning and an increase in the average rates paid on interest bearing
      liabilities. Net interest margin, on a fully taxable equivalent basis, fell
      slightly in the first quarter of 2007 as compared to the same period a year
      ago.





Non-interest
      income increased largely as a result of increases in income from deposit account
      service charges.





Non-interest
      expense also increased, with the largest increases seen in the operational
      areas
      of occupancy and equipment expense and data processing expense.








**Net
      Interest Income**





Increases
      by the Federal Reserve Board (“The Fed”) throughout 2005 and continuing into
      2006 for the target rate for federal funds sold has caused both rates earned
      on
      assets and rates paid on liabilities to increase.  Although the
      increases by The Fed slowed in late 2006 and no increases occurred during 2007,
      the Company’s balance sheet continues to be impacted by the increases enacted
      during 2005 and early 2006. As older earning assets and interest bearing
      liabilities mature and are replaced by newer earning assets and interest bearing
      liabilities, which bear higher rates of interest, the Company has experienced
      increases in both the average rates earned on assets and the average rates
      paid
      on liabilities.





Because
      of typically shorter maturities, and the recent need to offer deposit rates
      above market averages, average rates on interest bearing liabilities have
      increased more than the average rates earned on interest earning assets.
      However, this was offset by increases in average balances of
      earning  assets being larger relative to increases in interest bearing
      liabilities, allowing the Company’s net interest income to continue to increase
      and net interest margins to remain fairly constant.





Historically,
      the Company, in an effort to attract deposits with which to fund loan growth,
      has often paid rates on deposits higher than national averages. During the
      later
      portions of 2004 and during 2005, the Company chose to fund loan growth through
      reductions in deposits and also reductions of comparatively lower earning assets
      like federal funds sold and securities rather than compete for deposits based
      upon rate. As The Fed has continued to increase the target rate for federal
      funds sold, the average rates earned by securities, federal funds sold and
      deposits in other banks have increased more than the rates on loans. As such,
      Management has somewhat eased its strategy for funding loans through reductions
      in these lower earning assets because, in some instances, the rates paid on
      these assets are greater than the cost of interest on new deposits. In addition,
      strong loan demand throughout the later parts of 2006 and continuing into 2007
      created a need for the offering of higher rates on deposits to attract new
      deposits with which to fund this loan growth. As such, the Company’s average
      rates paid on time deposits and average balances of time deposits has
      increased.





As
      of
      March 31, 2007, the Company had balances of liquid funds, mostly in the form
      of
      federal funds sold, greater than seen during previous quarters. Because of
      larger balances of liquid funds, Management anticipates that, in the immediately
      upcoming quarters, the need for offering above market rates to attract new
      deposits will lessen, allowing net interest margins to continue at or near
      recent levels.

**Loan
      Portfolio**





The
      Company is an active residential mortgage and construction lender and generally
      extends commercial loans to small and medium sized businesses within its primary
      service area.  The Company's commercial lending activity extends
      across its primary service areas of Grant, Hardy, Hampshire, Mineral, Randolph,
      Tucker, and northern Pendleton counties in West Virginia, Frederick County,
      Virginia and Garrett County, Maryland.  Consistent with its focus on
      providing community-based financial services, the Company does not attempt
      to
      diversify its loan portfolio geographically by making significant amounts of
      loans to borrowers outside of its primary service area.

Non-performing
      loans include non-accrual loans, loans 90 days or more past due and restructured
      loans.  Non accrual loans are loans on which interest accruals have
      been suspended or discontinued permanently.  Restructured loans are
      loans on which the original interest rate or repayment terms have been changed
      due to financial hardship of the borrower.





Loans
      are
      typically placed on non-accrual status once they have reached certain levels
      of
      delinquency, depending on loan type, and it is no longer reasonable to expect
      collection of principal and interest because collateral is insufficient to
      cover
      both the principal and interest due. After loans are placed on non-accrual
      status, they are returned to accrual status if the obligation is brought current
      by the borrower, or they are charged off if payment is not made and Management
      believes that collection of the amounts due is doubtful. Charged-off loans
      are
      charged against the allowance for loan losses. Any subsequent collection or
      sale
      of repossessed collateral is added to the allowance as a recovery.





Because
      of its large impact on the local economy, Management continuously monitors
      the
      economic health of the poultry industry.  The Company has direct loans
      to poultry growers and the industry is a large employer in the Company’s trade
      area.  In recent periods, the Company’s loan portfolio has begun to
      reflect a concentration in loans collateralized by heavy equipment, particularly
      in the trucking, timber and coal extraction industries. In part because of
      rising fuel costs, and because of continued slow economic growth, the trucking
      sector experienced a recent downturn, and profitability growth within this
      sector still appears to be sluggish. While close monitoring of this sector
      is
      necessary, management expects no significant losses in the foreseeable
      future.





An
      inherent risk in the lending of money is that the borrower will not be able
      to
      repay the loan under the terms of the original agreement.  The
      allowance for loan losses provides for this risk and is reviewed periodically
      for adequacy.  This review also considers concentrations of loans in
      terms of geography, business type or level of risk.  While lending is
      geographically diversified within the service area, the Company does have some
      concentration of loans in the area of agriculture (primarily poultry farming),
      timber and related industries. Management recognizes these concentrations and
      considers them when structuring its loan portfolio.




Each
      of
      the Company's banking subsidiaries, Capon Valley Bank and The Grant County
      Bank,
      determines the adequacy of its allowance for loan losses independently. Although
      the loan portfolios of the two banks are similar to each other, some differences
      exist which result in divergent risk patterns and different charge-off rates
      amongst the functional areas of the banks’ portfolios.  Each bank pays
      particular attention to individual loan performance, collateral values, borrower
      financial condition and economic conditions.  The determination of an
      adequate allowance at each bank is done in a three step process.  The
      first step is to identify impaired loans. Impaired loans are problem loans
      above
      a certain threshold which have estimated losses calculated based on collateral
      values and projected cash flows.  The second step is to identify loans
      above a certain threshold which are problem loans due to the borrower’s payment
      history or deteriorating financial condition.  Losses in this category
      are determined based on historical loss rates adjusted for current economic
      conditions.  The final step is to calculate a loss for the remainder
      of the portfolio using historical loss information for each type of loan
      classification. The determination of specific allowances and weighting is
      somewhat subjective and actual losses may be greater or less than the amount
      of
      the allowance.  However, Management believes that the allowance
      represents a fair assessment of the losses that exist in the current loan
      portfolio.

                Fourteen





The
      required level of the allowance for loan losses is computed quarterly and the
      allowance adjusted prior to the issuance of the quarterly financial
      statements.  All loan losses charged to the allowance are approved by
      the boards of directors of each bank at their regular meetings.  The
      allowance is reviewed for adequacy after considering historical loss rates,
      current economic conditions (both locally and nationally) and any known credit
      problems that have not been considered under the above formula.





Management
      has analyzed the potential risk of loss on the Company's loan portfolio given
      the loan balances and the value of the underlying collateral and has recognized
      losses where appropriate. Non-performing loans are closely monitored on an
      ongoing basis as part of the Company's loan review process.

      following table shows the allocation for loans in the loan portfolio and the

As
      certain loans identified as impaired are paid current, collateral values
      increase or loans are removed from watch lists for other reasons, and as other
      loans become identified as impaired, and because delinquency levels within
      each
      of the portfolios change, the allocation of the allowance among the loan types
      may change. Management feels that the allowance is a fair representation of
      the
      losses present in the portfolio given historical loss trends, economic
      conditions and any known credit problems as of a given date. Management believes
      that the allowance is to be taken as a whole, and allocation between loan types
      is an estimation of potential losses within each type given information known
      at
      the time.





The
      following table summarizes the Company’s net charge-offs by loan type for the
      three month periods ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 (in thousands of
      dollars):

The
      provision for loan losses taken during the first quarter of 2007 was $5,000
      less
      than that taken during the same quarter in 2006. In spite of the decrease in
      the
      provision, the ratio of the allowance for loan losses to gross loans increased
      from 1.19% at December 31, 2006 to 1.20% at March 31, 2007.   At
      March 31, 2006, the ratio of the allowance for loan losses to gross loans was
      1.17%.  The ratio of allowance for loan losses to nonperforming loans
      was 2.34 at March 31, 2007 compared to 2.05 at December 31, 2006.





**Non-interest
      Income**





Non-interest
      income increased 8.78% for the first quarter of 2007 as compared to the same
      period in 2006. This increase was impacted most by an increase in income
      received from customer deposit account service charges, due to continued growth
      in deposit balances.





Income
      from investments in life insurance contracts fell as the result of there being
      fewer policies present during the first quarter of 2007 as compared to the
      same
      period in 2006. (See Note Twenty of the Financial Statements included in the
      Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the Year Ended December 31,
      2006)




**Non-interest
      Expense**





Non-interest
      expense increased 4.85% for the first three months of 2007 as compared to
      2006.





As
      the
      relative size of the Company’s operations continues to increase, the Company’s
      cost of equipment and data processing also increased. Legal and professional
      fees increased $32,000 as compared to 2006 largely as a result of increased
      on-site engagements of consultants assisting the Company with Sarbanes Oxley
      Rule 404 compliance.  Costs of employee salaries and related benefits
      increased slightly as normal annual increases in pay were offset in part by
      declines in the cost of postretirement benefit plans.





**Borrowed
      Funds**





The
      Company borrows funds from the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) to reduce market
      rate risks, provide liquidity, and to fund capital additions.  These
      borrowings may have fixed or variable interest rates and are amortized over
      a
      period of one to twenty years, or may be comprised of single payment borrowings
      with periodic interest payments and principal amounts due at maturity. In an
      attempt to manage interest expense and interest rate risk and as competition
      for
      deposits have increased, the Company has, during recent periods, used these
      available debt vehicles to fund loan growth more frequently than was utilized
      in
      the past.





**Liquidity**





Operating
      liquidity is the ability to meet present and future financial obligations.
      Short
      term liquidity is provided primarily through cash balances, deposits with other
      financial institutions, federal funds sold, non-pledged securities and loans
      maturing within one year. Additional sources of liquidity available to the
      Company include, but are not limited to, loan repayments, the ability to obtain
      deposits through the adjustment of interest rates and the purchasing of federal
      funds.  To further meet its liquidity needs, the Company also
      maintains lines of credit with correspondent financial institutions, the Federal
      Reserve Bank of Richmond and the Federal Home Loan Bank of
      Pittsburgh.





Historically,
      the Company’s primary need for additional levels of operational liquidity has
      been to fund increases in loan balances. The Company has normally funded
      increases in loans by increasing deposits and decreases in secondary liquidity
      sources such as balances of federal funds sold and balances of securities.
      In
      recent periods, the Company has substantially maintained or increased levels
      of
      these secondary liquidity resources and does not anticipate that an unexpectedly
      high level of loan demand in coming periods would impact liquidity to the extent
      that the Company would be required to pay above market rates to obtain
      deposits.

The
      parent Company’s operating funds, funds with which to pay shareholder dividends
      and funds for the exploration of new business ventures have been supplied
      primarily through dividends paid by the Company’s subsidiary banks Capon Valley
      Bank (CVB) and The Grant County Bank (GCB).  The various regulatory
      authorities impose restrictions on dividends paid by a state bank.  A
      state bank cannot pay dividends without the consent of the relevant banking
      authorities in excess of the total net profits of the current year and the
      combined retained profits of the previous two years.  As of April 1,
      2007, the subsidiary banks could pay dividends to Highlands Bankshares, Inc.
      of
      approximately $6,465,000 without permission of the regulatory
      authorities.





**Capital**





The
      Company seeks to maintain a strong capital base to expand facilities, promote
      public confidence, support current operations and grow at a manageable
      level.  As of March 31, 2007, the Company was above the regulatory
      minimum levels of capital. The table below summarizes the capital ratios for
      the
      Company and its subsidiary banks as of March 31, 2007 and December 31,

**Effects
      of Inflation**





Inflation
      primarily affects industries having high levels of property, plant and equipment
      or inventories. Although the Company is not significantly affected in these
      areas, inflation does have an impact on the growth of assets.  As
      assets grow rapidly, it becomes necessary to increase equity capital at
      proportionate levels to maintain the appropriate equity to asset
      ratios.  Traditionally, the Company's earnings and high capital
      retention levels have enabled the Company to meet these needs. The Company's
      reported earnings results have been minimally affected by
      inflation.  The different types of income and expense are affected in
      various ways.  Interest rates are affected by inflation, but the
      timing and magnitude of the changes may not coincide with changes in the
      consumer price index.  Management actively monitors interest rate
      sensitivity in order to minimize the effects of inflationary trends on interest
      rates. Other areas of non-interest expenses may be more directly affected by
      inflation.
