The consolidated financial statements of National Bankshares, Inc.        (Bankshares) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, The National Bank of Blacksburg (NBB) and        National Bankshares Financial Services, Inc. (NBFS), (the Company), conform to accounting        principles generally accepted in the United States of America and to general practices        within the banking industry. The accompanying interim period consolidated financial        statements are unaudited; however, in the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting        of normal recurring adjustments, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the        consolidated financial statements, have been included. The results of operations for the        six months ended June 30, 2007 are not necessarily indicative of results of operations for        the full year or any other interim period. The interim period consolidated financial        statements and financial information included in this Form 10-Q should be read in        conjunction with the notes to consolidated financial statements included in the Company's        2006 Form 10-K.

**Note (2)        Stock-Based Compensation**

 

The Company adopted the National Bankshares, Inc. 1999 Stock Option Plan to        give key employees of Bankshares and its subsidiaries an opportunity to acquire shares of        National Bankshares, Inc. common stock. The purpose of the 1999 Stock Option Plan is to        promote the success of Bankshares and its subsidiaries by providing an incentive to key        employees that enhances the identification of their personal interest with the long term        financial success of the Company and with growth in stockholder value. Under the 1999 Stock        Option Plan, up to 500,000 shares of Bankshares common stock may be granted. The 1999 Stock        Option Plan is administered by the Stock Option Committee, which is the NBI Board of        Directors’ Compensation Committee, made up entirely of independent directors of        National Bankshares, Inc. The Stock Option Committee may determine whether options are        incentive stock options or nonqualified stock options and may determine the other terms of        grants, such as number of shares, term, a vesting schedule, and the exercise price. The        1999 Stock Option Plan limits the maximum term of any option granted to ten years, states        that options may be granted at not less than fair market value on the date of the grant and        contains certain other limitations on the exercisability of incentive stock options. The        options generally vest 25% after one year, 50% after two years, 75% after three years and        100% after four years. At the discretion of the Stock Option Committee options may be        awarded with the provision that they may be accelerated upon a change of control, merger,        consolidation, sale or dissolution of National Bankshares, Inc. At June 30, 2007, there        were 286,000 additional shares available for grant under the plan.

Compensation expense is calculated using the Black-Scholes model and is        amortized over the requisite service period using the straight-line method. Please refer to        the Company’s Form 10-K dated December 31, 2006 for assumptions used. There have been        no grants of stock options in 2007.

Because no        options were granted in 2007 and all options were fully vested at December 31, 2006, there        is no expense included in net income.

During the six months ended June 30, 2007, there were no stock options        granted and 10,000 stock options were exercised with an intrinsic value of $98,900. For the        six months ended June 30, 2006 there were no stock options granted and 10,710 options were        exercised with an intrinsic value of $128,000.

**Note (5)        Recent Accounting Pronouncements**

 

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued        Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”        (SFAS 157). SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value        in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value        measurements. SFAS 157 does not require any new fair value measurements but may change        current practice for some entities. This Statement is effective for financial statements        issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those        years. The Company does not expect the implementation of SFAS 157 to have a material impact        on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting        Standards No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial        Liabilities” (SFAS 159). This statement permits entities to choose to measure many        financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The objective of this        Statement is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to        mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities        differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. The fair value        option established by this Statement permits all entities to choose to measure eligible        items at fair value at specified election dates. A business entity shall report unrealized        gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected in earnings at        each subsequent reporting date. The fair value option may be applied instrument by        instrument and is irrevocable. SFAS 159 is effective as of the beginning of an        entity’s first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007. The Company is in the        process of evaluating the impact SFAS 159 may have on its consolidated financial        statements.

**Item 2.**

**Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition        and**

**Results of Operations for the Six Months Ended June 30,        2007**

 

The purpose of this discussion is to provide information about the financial        condition and results of operations of National Bankshares, Inc. and its wholly-owned        subsidiaries (the Company), which are not otherwise apparent from the consolidated        financial statements and other information included in this report. Refer to the financial        statements and other information included in this report as well as the 2006 Annual Report        on Form 10-K for an understanding of the following discussion and analysis.

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements as        described in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Company's actual results could differ        materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements.

 

**Critical Accounting Policies**

**General**

 

The Company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with        accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). The financial        information contained within our statements is, to a significant extent, financial        information that is based on measures of the financial effects of transactions and events        that have already occurred. A variety of factors could affect the ultimate value that is        obtained when earning income, recognizing an expense, recovering an asset or relieving a        liability. We use historical loss factors as one element in determining the inherent loss        that may be present in our loan portfolio. Actual losses could differ significantly from        the historical factors that we use. In addition, GAAP itself may change from one previously        acceptable method to another method. Although the economics of our transactions would be        the same, the timing of events that would impact our transactions could change.

         

**Allowance for Loan Losses**

 

The allowance for loan losses is an estimate of the losses that may be        sustained in our loan portfolio. The allowance is based on two basic principles of        accounting: (i) SFAS 5,*Accounting for Contingencies,*which requires that losses be accrued when they are probable of occurring        and estimable and (ii) SFAS 114,*Accounting by Creditors for        Impairment of a Loan,*which requires that losses be accrued based        on the differences between the value of collateral, present value of future cash flows or        values that are observable in the secondary market and the loan balance.

Our allowance for loan losses has three basic components; the formula        allowance, the specific allowance and the unallocated allowance. Each of these components        is determined based upon estimates that can and do change when actual events occur. The        formula allowance uses a historical loss view and certain qualitative factors as an        indicator of future losses and, as a result, could differ from the loss incurred in the        future. However, since this history is updated with the most recent loss information, the        errors that might otherwise occur are mitigated. The specific allowance uses various        techniques to arrive at an estimate of loss. Expected cash flows and fair market value of        collateral are used to estimate these losses. The use of these values is inherently        subjective and our actual losses could be greater or less than the estimates. The        unallocated allowance captures losses that are attributable to various economic events,        industry or geographic sectors, whose impact on the portfolio have occurred but have yet to        be recognized in either the formula or specific allowance.

 

**Core        deposit intangibles**

 

Effective January 1, 2002, the Corporation adopted Financial Accounting        Standards Board Statement No. 142,*Goodwill and Other Intangible        Assets.*Accordingly, goodwill is no longer subject to        amortization over its estimated useful life, but is subject to at least an annual        assessment for impairment by applying a fair value based test. Additionally, Statement 142        requires that acquired intangible assets (such as core deposit intangibles) be separately        recognized if the benefit of the asset can be sold, transferred, licensed, rented, or        exchanged and amortized over its estimated useful life. Branch acquisition transactions        were outside the scope of

 

16

 

         

 

the        Statement and therefore any intangible asset arising from such transactions remained        subject to amortization over their estimated useful life.

In October 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement        No. 147,*Acquisitions of Certain Financial        Institutions.*The Statement amends previous interpretive guidance        on the application of the purchase method of accounting to acquisitions of financial        institutions, and requires the application of Statement No. 141,*Business Combinations,*and Statement No. 142 to        branch acquisitions if such transactions meet the definition of a business combination. The        provisions of the Statement do not apply to transactions between two or more mutual        enterprises. In addition, the Statement amends Statement No. 144,*Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets,*to include in its scope core deposit intangibles of financial institutions.        Accordingly, such intangibles are subject to a recoverability test based on undiscounted        cash flows, and to the impairment recognition and measurement provisions required for other        long-lived assets held and used. The Company has determined that the acquisitions that        generated the intangible assets on the consolidated balance sheets in the amount of $9,958        and $10,912 at December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively, did not constitute the acquisition        of a business, and therefore will continue to be amortized.

|   | (1) | Net Interest Margin: Year-to-date tax-equivalent net                        interest income divided by year-to-date average earning assets using a tax                        rate of 35%. |
|--------|-----|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

|   | (2) | Noninterest Margin: Noninterest income (including securities                        gains and losses) less noninterest expense (excluding the provision for bad                        debts and income taxes) divided by average year-to-date assets. This is a                        non-GAAP financial measure of the level of noninterest income and                        expense. |
|--------|-----|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

 

The return on average assets for the first half of 2007 was 1.46%, down        slightly from the 1.50% for the period ended December 31, 2006. The return on average        equity also experienced a decline.

The net interest margin declined by 13 basis points. This decrease was due        to rising interest rates. Interest expense has continued to grow at a faster pace than        interest income.

**Asset        Quality**

 

|   | Key asset quality indicators are shown below: |
|--------|-----------------------------------------------|

 

|                               |   | **June 30, 2007** |   | **December 31,2006** |   |
|------------------------------------|--------|-------------------|--------|----------------------|--------|
| Nonperforming loans                |   | $                 | 1,136  |                 | $      | --- |   |
| Loans past due over 90 days        |   |              | 583    |                 |   | 681 |   |
| Other real estate owned            |   |              | 306    |                 |   | 390 |   |
| Allowance for loan losses to loans |   |              | 0.98   | %                    |   | 1.03 | % |
| Net charge-off ratio               |   |              | 0.07   | %                    |   | 0.07 | % |

 

This data indicates that the level of nonperforming loans has increased,        while the level of loans past due 90 days or more has declined. The increase in        nonperforming loans is concentrated in one credit. There has been no specific allocation to        the allowance for loan losses for the single additional nonperforming loan, as management        believes that this credit is well collateralized. Measures of asset quality remain good        when viewed from a historical perspective and when compared with peers. Other real estate        owned continues to decline as properties foreclosed upon are sold.

 

**Net        Interest Income**

 

|   | Net interest income for the first six months of 2007 was                        $14,439, a decrease of $381 or 2.57% over the same period in                        2006. |
|--------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

There were regular and steady increases in interest rate levels until the        third quarter of 2006. Due to the liability-sensitive nature of the Company’s balance        sheet, funding costs rose at a faster rate than asset yields. This caused the interest rate        spread and the related net interest spread to decrease.

Data in the table below, however, suggests that the net interest spread may        have stabilized in the first half of 2007. If interest rates remain at current levels, it        is expected that a gradual improvement in the net interest spread will occur. However,        should the Federal Reserve raise rates, further deterioration in the interest rate spread        would be likely.

| Other borrowings                   |   | 5.56                     | %      | 5.56 | % | 6.19 | % |
| Total interest-bearing liabilities |   | 3.32                     | %      | 3.33 | % | 2.94 | % |
|                               |   |                     |   |   |   |   |   |
| Interest rate spread               |   | 3.37                     | %      | 3.35 | % | 3.57 | % |

 

From December 31, 2006 to June 30, 2007, the yield on loans has increased by        26 basis points. During the same period, the yield on taxable securities has gone up by 3        basis points, with nontaxable securities increasing 7 basis points. Among the asset        categories interest-bearing deposits, which reprice daily, experienced the highest level of        increase.

Among the categories of liabilities, interest-bearing demand deposit rates        increased by 11 basis points from December 31, 2006 to June 30, 2007. Time deposit rates        increased by 54 basis points. Saving deposit rates have been essentially flat throughout        the period. Rate increases have occurred in the other borrowings category. However because        the dollar volume is not substantial, there is little impact on the net interest spread.        There is one additional factor which should be considered. During 2006, two time deposit        promotions with special higher interest rates were offered. Higher-rate deposits from the        first promotion began to mature in the first quarter of 2007. Deposits obtained in the        second promotion will begin to mature in September of 2007. This should have the effect of        decreasing the cost of time deposit costs, assuming that overall interest rates remain        stable and competitive factors allow these deposits to reprice downward.

**Provision and Allowance for Loan Losses**

The provision for loan losses for the six-month period ended June 30, 2007        was $10. The ratio of the allowance for loan losses to total loans at the end of the first        six months of 2007 was 0.98%, which compares to 1.03% at December 31, 2006. The net        charge-off ratio was 0.07% at June 30, 2007 and at December 31, 2006.

The Company regularly reviews asset quality and re-evaluates the allowance        for loan losses. Reviews are conducted and an appropriate provision and allowance for loan        losses is established depending upon factors that are unique to the subsidiary bank and the        quality of its loan portfolio.

At present, management does not anticipate any significant additions to the        provision for loan losses. Management’s opinion of current asset quality, evaluated        in the context of historical experience, forms the basis of this position. Although there        is an increase in nonperforming loans totals, management believes the single loan in this        category is well collateralized. (See “Allowance for Loan Losses” under        “Critical Accounting Policies”.)

Noninterest        income is made up of several categories. Following is a description of the catergories, as        well as the factors that influence each.

 

Service charges on deposit accounts consist of a variety of charges imposed        on demand deposits, interest-bearing deposits and savings deposit accounts. These include,        but are not limited to, the following:

|   | **•** | Demand deposit monthly activity fees |
|--------|------------|--------------------------------------|

|   | **•** | Service charges for checks for which there are                        non-sufficient funds or overdraft charges |
|--------|------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

|   | **•** | ATM transaction fees |
|--------|------------|----------------------|

|   | The principal factors affecting current or future levels of                        income from this category are: |
|--------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

|   | **•** | Internally generated growth |
|--------|------------|-----------------------------|

|   | **•** | Acquisitions of other banks/branches or de novo                        branches |
|--------|------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

|   | **•** | Adjustments to service charge structures |
|--------|------------|------------------------------------------|

Service charges on deposits were $1,653 at June 30, 2007, a decrease of        $17.

 

|   | Other service charges and fees consist of several                        categories. The primary categories are listed below. |
|--------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

|   | **•** | Fees for the issuance of official checks |
|--------|------------|------------------------------------------|

|   | **•** | Safe deposit box rent |
|--------|------------|-----------------------|

|   | **•** | Income from the sale of customer checks |
|--------|------------|-----------------------------------------|

|   | **•** | Income from the sale of credit life and accident and health                        insurance |
|--------|------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

Levels of income derived from other service charges and fees vary. Fees for        the issuance of official checks and customer check sales tend to grow as the existing        franchise grows and as new offices are added. Fee schedules, while subject to change,        generally do not by themselves yield a significant increase in income when they change. The        most significant growth in safe deposit box rent also comes with an expansion of offices.        Safe deposit box fee schedules, which are already at competitive levels, are occasionally        adjusted. Income derived from the sale of credit life insurance and accident and health        insurance varies with loan volume.

Other service charges and fees at June 30, 2007 were $162, as compared with        $213 for the same period the prior year. As indicated above, this category, because of its        nature, varies from period to period. The total reported is a combination of declines in        several areas, including small declines in income from the sale of checks and letter of        credit fees. There was also a decline in check cashing fees, which were        uncharacteristically high in the same period last year.

         

|   | Credit card fees consist of three types of                        revenues. |
|--------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|

|   | **•** | Credit card transaction fees |
|--------|------------|------------------------------|

 

19

 

         

 

|   | **•** | Debit card transaction fees |
|--------|------------|-----------------------------|

|   | **•** | Merchant fees |
|--------|------------|---------------|

In all three areas growth is a critical factor for the level of income. For        debit and credit cards, the number of accounts, whether obtained from internal growth or by        acquisition, is the key factor. Merchant fees also depend on the number of merchants in the        Company’s program, as well as the type of business and the level of transaction        discounts associated with them.

Credit card fees increased by $158 or 13.62% when June 30, 2007 and June 30,        2006 are compared. The increase was attributable to organic growth, resulting in increased        volume.

         

Trust income is somewhat dependent upon market conditions and the number of        estate accounts being handled at any given time. Financial market conditions, which affect        the value of trust assets managed, can vary, leading to fluctuations in the related income.        Over the past few years and into 2007, the financial markets have experienced a degree of        volatility. Income from estates is also unpredictable. Trust income for the first six        months of 2007 was $733, a decrease of $12 from the previous year.

         

Other income is used for types of income that cannot be classified with        other categories of noninterest income. The category includes such things as:

|   | **•** | Net gains on the sale of fixed assets |
|--------|------------|---------------------------------------|

|   | **•** | Rent on foreclosed property |
|--------|------------|-----------------------------|

|   | **•** | Income from cash value life insurance |
|--------|------------|---------------------------------------|

|   | **•** | Other infrequent or minor forms of income |
|--------|------------|-------------------------------------------|

|   | **•** | Revenue from investment and insurance sales |
|--------|------------|---------------------------------------------|

Given the nature of the items included in this category, trends or patterns        are not identifiable. Other income increased by $4 when June 30, 2007 and June 30, 2006 are        compared.

 

Realized net gains and (losses) on securities include equity adjustments in        certain investments in limited liability companies of which the Company is part owner, as        well as sales, maturities and calls of securities. Realized net gains and (losses) were $51        for the period ended June 30, 2007. The majority of this gain was attributable to equity        adjustments in investments in the following limited liability companies, Bankers Insurance        LLC, Bankers Investments Group LLC and Virginia Title Center LLC.

|   | Noninterest expense includes several categories. A brief                        description of the factors that affect each follows. |
|--------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

         

In addition to employee salaries, the salaries and benefits expense category        includes the costs of employment taxes and employee fringe benefits. Certain of these        are:

|   | **•** | Health insurance |

Salaries and employee benefits expense for the period ending June 30, 2007        was $5,619, a decline of $221 when compared to the same period in 2006. The primary cause        of this decrease was a decline in health insurance costs of approximately $244. In        addition, because of the May 2006 merger of the Company’s bank subsidiaries the        number of full-time equivalent employees has declined through attrition. The decrease in        health insurance and salary expense was offset by increases in other areas, producing a net        decline of $221.

 

Occupancy expense for the first six months of 2007 was $897, down $108 from        the same period in 2006. This category contains several types of expenses, including        depreciation, maintenance, lease expense and taxes and insurance. The net decrease from        2006 was due in part to $35 in additional expense for signage in 2006. This additional        expense for signs in 2006 was related to the merger of the Company’s two banking        affiliates. Depreciation expense also declined by approximately $30.

 

Data processing and ATM expense at June 30, 2007 decreased by $48 from the        same period in 2006. Declines in data processing supplies, maintenance and communications        line expense account for the decrease.

 

Because of increases in volume, credit card processing expenses grew by        $144, as compared with June 30, 2007. The increase in credit card expenses was more than        offset by the increase in credit card income. (See “Noninterest        Income.”)

 

Comparing the first six months of 2007 with the same period in 2006, net        cost of other real estate owned increased by $47. Losses on the sale of OREO property were        $30, and $7 in write-downs was taken on properties in the first half of 2007. Other        foreclosure expense was $24.

 

Other operating expenses include all other types of expense not classified        elsewhere in the Company’s statement of income. Other operating expenses grew by a        nominal $47, or 2.40%, when compared with the same period last year.

**Securities**

 

Securities available for sale at June 30, 2007 were $161,293, a decline of        $8,442 from December 31, 2006. During the same period, securities held to maturity        increased by $5,908. The Company’s intent is to hold the securities to maturity. The        shift to the held to maturity portfolio is designed to mitigate the price volatility that        has affected the capital account. Fluctuations in the level of unrealized gains and losses        in the securities available for sale portfolio have been significant.

The above table indicates that the highest level of growth has been in the        category of real estate construction loans. At June 30, 2007, the category was comprised of        approximately $10,964 in residential construction loans and approximately $31,682 in        commercial real estate loans.

Nearly all residential construction loans are sold on the secondary market        once construction is complete and the loans are converted to permanent mortgages. Most        commercial real estate construction loans are converted to permanent financing and held by        the Company. Because this category of loans tends to be seasonal, volumes in the second and        third quarter are usually higher than in the first and last quarter of the year.

Loan to individuals have declined by 5.45%. Competitive factors, such as the        availability of low cost dealer auto loans and other products, such as home equity lines of        credit, have made the traditional installment loan less attractive to bank        customers.

As seen above, total deposits have grown 0.87% from December 31, 2006 to        June 30, 2007. Demand deposits increased by 14.60%. Approximately $10 million of this        increase is temporary in nature and is due to normal variations in deposit        totals.

|   | The remaining categories experienced little                        change. |

**Liquidity and Capital Resources**

 

Net cash provided by operating activities was $6,222 for the period ended        June 30, 2007, which compares to $6,766 for the same period the previous year.

Net cash used in investing activities was $8,455 for the period ended June        30, 2007, and $5,354 used for the period ended June 30, 2006. Net cash provided by        financing activities was $3,887 for the period ending June 30, 2007.

Management is unaware of any commitment that would have a material and        adverse effect on liquidity at June 30, 2007.

Total shareholders’ equity grew by $1,919 from December 31, 2006 to        June 30, 2007. Earnings and the changes in unrealized gains and losses for securities        available for sale accounted for the net increase. During the first six months of 2007, the        Company repurchased 15,000 shares of its own stock for approximately $330 at an average        price of $22.60 per share (including broker commission). The Tier I and Tier II risk-based        capital ratios at June 30, 2007 were 14.43% and 15.26%, respectively. The Company’s        leverage capital ratio was 10.32%

         

**Derivatives and Off Balance Sheet Items**

The Company is not a party to derivative financial instruments with        off-balance sheet risks, such as futures, forwards, and swaps. The Company has certain        written options related to the origination and sale of mortgage loans. The Company is a        party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risks, such as commitments to extend        credit, standby letters of credit, and recourse obligations in the normal course of        business, to meet the financing needs of its customers. Management does not plan any future        involvement in high- risk derivative products.

The Company’s banking affiliate extends lines of credit to its        customers in the normal course of business. Amounts drawn upon these lines vary at any        given time depending on the business needs of the customers.

Standby letters of credit are also issued to the bank’s customers.        There are two types of standby letters of credit. The first is a guarantee of payment to        facilitate customer purchases. The second type is a performance letter of credit that        guarantees a payment if the customer fails to perform a specific obligation.

While it would be possible for customers to draw in full on approved lines        of credit and letters of credit, historically this has not occurred. In the event of a        sudden and substantial draw on these lines, the Company has its own lines of credit on        which it could draw funds. Sale of the loans would also be an option.

|   | The Company also sells mortgages on the secondary market for                        which there are recourse agreements should the borrower default. |
|--------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

|   | During the first six months of 2007, there have been no                        significant or unusual changes in this area. |

**Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition        and**

**Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended June 30,        2007**

 

**Net        Interest Income**

 

Net interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2007 was $7,325, a        decrease of $150 from the corresponding period in 2006.

Overall the Company is experiencing a compression of the net interest        margin. The net interest margin appears, however, to have stabilized. The net interest        margin for the first three months of 2007 was 3.96%. For the second three months of 2007 it        was 4.03%. While future improvements are anticipated, any improvement will be contingent        upon interest rate levels remaining stable.

 

**Noninterest Income**

 

Noninterest income for the second quarter of 2007 was up 2.12% when compared        to the second quarter of 2006. Growth in credit card fees, resulting from higher volume,        accounted for this increase.

 

**Noninterest Expense**

 

Salaries and employee benefits were down $151 when the three months ended        June 30, 2007 and June 30, 2006 are compared. The previously mentioned decline in health        insurance costs accounted for the decrease.

|   | The increase in credit card expense was volume                        driven. |
|--------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

The $206 increase in other expenses includes a $67 increase in stationery        and supplies, a $24 increase in audits and examinations and a $22 increase in charitable        donations expense. The remainder of the increase was a combination of net change occurring        in various other accounts.

| **Item 3.** | **Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market                        Risk** |
|-------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

 

The Company considers interest rate risk to be a significant market risk and        has systems in place to measure the exposure of net interest income to adverse movement in        interest rates. Interest rate shock analyses provide management with an indication of        potential economic loss due to future rate changes. There have not been any changes which        would significantly alter the results disclosed as of December 31, 2006 in the        Company’s Form 10-K.

 

| **Item 4.** | **Controls and Procedures** |
|-------------|-----------------------------|

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including        the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, the        Company has conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its        disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2007. Based on that evaluation, the        Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded        that these controls and procedures are effective to give reasonable assurance in alerting        them in a timely fashion to material information relating to the Company that is required        to be included in the reports the Company files under the Act. There were no changes in the        Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the period covered by        this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect,        the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

 

23

 

         

 

Disclosure controls and procedures are the Company’s controls and        procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the        Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and        communicated to allow timely decisions regarding its required disclosure. The Company        believes that a controls system, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide        absolute assurance that all control issues have been detected.
