Quarterly Report
For additional discussion of risk factors that may cause our actual future
results to differ materially from the results indicated within forward-looking
statements, please see "Risk Factors" in Item 1A of the Company's Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.
CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING NON-GAAP MEASURES
This report contains financial information determined by methods other than in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America ("GAAP"). The Company's management uses these "non-GAAP" measures in
their analysis of the Corporation's performance. The Company's management
believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide a greater understanding
of ongoing operations and enhance comparability of results with prior periods as
well as demonstrating the effects of significant gains and charges in the
current period. The Company believes that a meaningful analysis of its financial
performance requires an understanding of the factors underlying that
performance. The Company's management believes that investors may use these
non-GAAP financial measures to analyze financial performance without the impact
of unusual items that may obscure trends in the Company's underlying
performance. Where incorporated into our disclosures, these non-GAAP measures
will be clearly identified as such. These disclosures should not be viewed as a
substitute for operating results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are
they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be
presented by other companies.
GENERAL
Fauquier Bankshares, Inc. ("the Company") was incorporated under the laws of the
Commonwealth of Virginia on January 13, 1984. The Company is a registered bank
holding company and owns all of the voting shares of The Fauquier Bank ("the
Bank"). The Company engages in its business through the Bank, a Virginia
state-chartered bank that commenced operations in 1902. The Company has no
significant operations other than owning the stock of the Bank. The Company had
issued and outstanding 3,596,537 shares of common stock, par value $3.13 per
share, held by approximately 434 holders of record on June 30, 2009. The Bank
has nine full service branch offices located in the Virginia communities of
Warrenton, Catlett, The Plains, Sudley Road-Manassas, Old Town-Manassas, New
Baltimore, Bealeton and Bristow. The executive offices of the Company and the
main office of the Bank are located at 10 Courthouse Square, Warrenton, Virginia
20186. The Bank has leased property in Haymarket, Virginia, where it plans to
build its tenth full-service branch offices, scheduled to open during 2010.
The Bank's general market area principally includes Fauquier County, western
Prince William County, and neighboring communities and is located approximately
fifty (50) miles southwest of Washington, D.C.
The Bank provides a range of consumer and commercial banking services to
individuals, businesses and industries. The deposits of the Bank are insured up
to applicable limits by the Deposit Insurance Fund of the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation ("FDIC"). The basic services offered by the Bank include:
demand interest bearing and non-interest bearing accounts, money market deposit
accounts, NOW accounts, time deposits, safe deposit services, credit cards, cash
management, direct deposits, notary services, night depository, prepaid debit
cards, cashier's checks, domestic collections, savings bonds, automated teller
services, drive-in tellers, internet banking, telephone banking, and banking by
mail. In addition, the Bank makes secured and unsecured commercial and real
estate loans, issues stand-by letters of credit and grants available credit for
installment, unsecured and secured personal loans, residential mortgages and
home equity loans, as well as automobile and other types of consumer financing.
The Bank provides automated teller machine ("ATM") cards, as a part of the Star,
NYCE, and Plus ATM networks, thereby permitting customers to utilize the
convenience of larger ATM networks. The Bank also is a member of the Certificate
of Deposit Account Registry Service ("CDARS"). CDARs can provide a customer
multi-million dollar FDIC insurance on CD investments through the transfer
and/or exchange with other FDIC insured institutions. CDARS is a registered
service mark of Promontory Interfinancial Network, LLC.
The Bank operates a Wealth Management Services ("WMS" or "Wealth Management")
division that began with the granting of trust powers to the Bank in 1919. The
WMS division provides personalized services that include investment management,
trust, estate settlement, retirement, insurance, and brokerage services.
The Bank, through its subsidiary Fauquier Bank Services, Inc., has equity
ownership interests in Bankers Insurance, LLC, a Virginia independent insurance
company; Infinex Investments, Inc., a full service broker/dealer; and Bankers
Title Shenandoah, LLC, a title insurance company. Bankers Insurance consists of
a consortium of 36 Virginia community bank owners; Infinex is owned by 54 banks
and banking associations in various states; and Bankers Title Shenandoah is
owned by 17 Virginia community banks. On April 30, 2008, the Bank's ownership of
stock in BI Investments, LLC was exchanged for Infinex stock as part of a
merger.
The revenues of the Bank are primarily derived from interest on, and fees
received in connection with, real estate and other loans, and from interest and
dividends from investment and mortgage-backed securities, and short-term
investments. The principal sources of funds for the Bank's lending activities
are its deposits, repayment of loans, the sale and maturity of investment
securities, and borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") of Atlanta.
Additional revenues are derived from fees for deposit-related and WMS-related
services. The Bank's principal expenses are the interest paid on deposits and
operating and general administrative expenses.
As is the case with banking institutions generally, the Bank's operations are
materially and significantly influenced by general economic conditions and by
related monetary and fiscal policies of financial institution regulatory
agencies, including the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System
("Federal Reserve"). As a Virginia-chartered bank and a member of the Federal
Reserve, the Bank is supervised and examined by the Federal Reserve and the
Virginia State Corporation Commission. Interest rates on competing investments
and general market rates of interest influence deposit flows and costs of funds.
Lending activities are affected by the demand for financing of real estate and
other types of loans, which in turn is affected by the interest rates at which
such financing may be offered and other factors affecting local demand and
availability of funds. The Bank faces strong competition in the attraction of
deposits (its primary source of lendable funds) and in the origination of loans.
Please see "Risk Factors" in Item 1A of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2008.
As of June 30, 2009, the Company had total consolidated assets of
$530.8 million, total loans net of allowance for loan losses of $452.1 million,
total consolidated deposits of $412.6 million, and total consolidated
shareholders' equity of $41.4 million.
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, 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. We use historical loss factors as one factor
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 our estimates. In addition, GAAP itself may change from one previously
acceptable accounting method to another method. Although the economics of the
Company's transactions would be the same, the timing of events that would impact
the Company's 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
three basic principles of accounting: (i) Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards ("SFAS") No. 5, "Accounting for Contingencies," which requires that
losses be accrued when they are probable of occurring and estimable, (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 and (iii) SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin
No. 102, "Selected Loan Loss Allowance Methodology and Documentation Issues,"
which requires adequate documentation to support the allowance for loan losses
estimate.
The Company's allowance for loan losses has two basic components: the specific
allowance and the general allowance. Each of these components is determined
based upon estimates that can and do change when the actual events occur. The
specific allowance is used to individually allocate an allowance for larger
balance, non-homogeneous loans. The specific allowance uses various techniques
to arrive at an estimate of loss. First, analysis of the borrower's overall
financial condition, resources and payment record, the prospects for support
from financial guarantors, and the fair market value of collateral are used to
estimate the probability and severity of inherent losses. Then the migration of
historical default rates and loss severities, internal risk ratings, industry
and market conditions and trends, and other environmental factors are
considered. The use of these values is inherently subjective and our actual
losses could be greater or less than the estimates. The general allowance is
used for estimating the loss on pools of smaller-balance, homogeneous loans;
including 1-4 family mortgage loans, installment loans, other consumer loans,
and outstanding loan commitments. Also, the general allowance is used for the
remaining pool of larger balance, non-homogeneous loans which were not allocated
a specific allowance upon their review. The general allowance begins with
estimates of probable losses inherent in the homogeneous portfolio based upon
various statistical analyses. These include analysis of historical and peer
group delinquency and credit loss experience, together with analyses that
reflect current trends and conditions. The Company also considers trends and
changes in the volume and term of loans, changes in the credit process and/or
lending policies and procedures, and an evaluation of overall credit quality.
The general allowance uses a historical loss view as an indicator of future
losses. As a result, even though this history is regularly updated with the most
recent loss information, it could differ from the loss incurred in the future.
The general allowance also 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 the specific allowances.
EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW
This discussion is intended to focus on certain financial information regarding
the Company and the Bank and may not contain all the information that is
important to the reader. The purpose of this discussion is to provide the reader
with a more thorough understanding of our financial statements. As such, this
discussion should be read carefully in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements and accompanying notes contained elsewhere in this report.
The Bank is the primary independent community bank in its immediate market area
as measured by deposit market share. It seeks to be the primary financial
service provider for its market area by providing the right mix of consistently
high quality customer service, efficient technological support, value-added
products, and a strong commitment to the community. The Company and the Bank's
primary operating businesses are in commercial and retail lending, deposit
accounts and core deposits, and assets under WMS management.
Net income of $724,000 for the second quarter of 2009, was a 23.2% decrease from
the net income for the second quarter of 2008 of $942,000. Net income of
$1.65 million for the six months ending June 30, 2009, was a 15.6% decrease from
the net income for the six months ending June 30, 2008 of $1.95 million. Loans,
net of reserve, totaling $452.1 million at June 30, 2009, increased 4.0% when
compared with December 31, 2008, and increased 6.4% when compared with June 30,
2008. Deposits, totaling $412.6 million at June 30, 2009, increased 3.1%
compared with year-end 2008, and increased 6.3% when compared with June 30,
2008. Assets under WMS management, totaling $279.3 million in market value at
June 30, 2009, declined 3.1% from $288.2 million in market value at June 30,
2008, due to the decline in valuations of common stock under management. For
example, from June 30, 2008 to June 30, 2009, stocks measured in the Standard &
Poors' 500 index declined by approximately 28.5%.
Net interest income is the largest component of net income, and equals the
difference between income generated on interest-earning assets and interest
expense incurred on interest-bearing liabilities. Future trends regarding net
interest income are dependent on the absolute level of market interest rates,
the shape of the yield curve, the amount of lost income from non-performing
assets, the amount of prepaying loans, the mix and amount of various deposit
types, competition for loans and deposits, and many other factors, as well as
the overall volume of interest-earning assets. These factors are individually
difficult to predict, and when taken together, the uncertainty of future trends
compounds. Based on management's current projections, net interest income may
increase in 2009 and beyond as average interest-earning assets increase, but
this may be offset in part or in whole by a possible contraction in the Bank's
net interest margin resulting from competitive market conditions and/or a flat
or inverted yield curve. A steeper yield curve is projected to result in an
increase in net interest income, while a flatter or inverted yield curve is
projected to result in a decrease in net interest income.
Since the third quarter of 2008, the Bank has seen its competition for deposits
increase significantly. The pricing of retail deposits, which traditionally has
been at an interest rate less than the interest rate on a FHLB of Atlanta
advance of similar term, has exceeded the corresponding FHLB rate by 50 to 100
basis points or more. The increased cost of deposits has resulted in less net
interest income and a narrower net interest margin. The intensified competition
for deposits is, for the most part, the result of liquidity and capitalization
pressures faced by many of the large multi-state financial institutions who
compete in the Bank's market area.
The Bank's non-performing assets totaled $3.2 million or 0.70% of total loans
and repossessed assets, including real estate owned, at June 30, 2009, as
compared with $4.3 million or 0.97% of total loans and repossessed assets at
December 31, 2008, and $3.0 million or 0.70% of total loans and repossessed
assets at June 30, 2008. The provision for loan losses was $560,000 for the
first six months of 2009 compared with $1.29 million for the first six months of
2008. Loan chargeoffs, net of recoveries, totaled $249,000 or 0.06% of total
average loans for the first six months of 2009, compared with $1.16 million or
0.28% of total average loans for the first six months of 2008. The $730,000
decrease in the provision for loan losses from the first six months of 2008 to
the first six months of 2009 was largely in response to the $907,000 decline in
net charge-offs for the respective six month periods, as well as the decline in
non-performing assets since September 30, 2008. Total allowance for loan losses
was $5.1 million or 1.11% of total
loans at June 30, 2009 compared with $4.8 million or 1.08% of loans at
December 31, 2008 and $4.3 million or 1.02% of loans at June 30, 2008.
Management seeks to continue the expansion of its branch network. The Bank has
leased properties in Bristow, Virginia and Haymarket, Virginia, in order to
build its ninth and tenth full-service branch offices, respectively. The Bristow
office opened on July 13, 2009, and the Haymarket office is scheduled to open in
late 2009 or early 2010. The Bank is looking toward these new retail markets for
growth in deposits and WMS income. Management seeks to increase the level of its
fee income from deposits and WMS through the increase of its market share within
its marketplace.
COMPARISON OF OPERATING RESULTS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2009 AND
JUNE 30, 2008
NET INCOME
Net income was $724,000 for the second quarter of 2009, a 23.2% decrease from
the second quarter of 2008 net income of $942,000. Earnings per share on a fully
diluted basis were $0.20 in 2009 compared to $0.26 in 2008. Profitability as
measured by return on average assets decreased from 0.76% in the second quarter
of 2008 to 0.55% for the same period in 2009. Profitability as measured by
return on average equity decreased from 8.80% to 7.02% over the same respective
second quarters in 2008 and 2009. The decline in net income and the
corresponding profitability measures was primarily due to the increase of
$374,000 in FDIC insurance including a $240,000 "special assessment" at June 30,
2009, expenses of approximately $291,000 related to the contested election of
directors at the 2009 annual meeting of shareholders ("proxy contest"), and the
$113,000 loss on the impairment of the Company's investment in Silverton Bank's
common stock. This was partially offset by a $299,000 increase in net interest
income in the second quarter of 2009 compared with the second quarter of 2008,
and a $474,000 reduction in provision for loan losses for the same time periods.
The impact of the proxy contest on net income was approximately $192,000, net of
tax benefit, or $0.053 per share on a fully diluted basis for the quarter. The
impact of the $240,000 FDIC special assessment was approximately $158,000, net
of tax benefit, or $0.044 per share on a fully diluted basis for the quarter.
The impact of the $113,000 loss on the impairment of the investment in Silverton
Bank's common stock, having no corresponding tax benefit at this time, had the
impact of approximately $0.031 per share on a fully diluted basis for the
quarter.
The following table reconciles various non-GAAP adjustments to net income on a
GAAP basis.

NET INTEREST INCOME AND EXPENSE
Net interest income increased $299,000 or 6.2% to $5.17 million for the quarter
ended June 30, 2009 from $4.87 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2008. The
increase in net interest income was partially due to the impact of total average
earning assets increasing 6.0% from $462.4 million during the second quarter of
2008 to $490.3 million during the second quarter of 2009. In addition, the
Company's net interest margin increased from 4.22% in the second quarter of 2008
to 4.23% in the second quarter of 2009.
Total interest income decreased $182,000 or 2.6% to $6.88 million for the second
quarter of 2009 from $7.06 million for the second quarter of 2008. This decrease
was primarily due to the 47 basis point decrease in the yield on average assets
from second quarter 2008 to second quarter 2009. This was partially offset by
the increase in total average earning assets of $27.9 million.
The average yield on loans decreased to 5.76% for the second quarter of 2009
compared with 6.23% for the second quarter of 2008. Average loan balances
increased $26.8 million or 6.4% from $422.5 million during the second quarter of
2008 to $449.3 million during the second quarter of 2009. The decline in rate,
partially offset by the increase in loans outstanding, resulted in a $104,000 or
1.6% decrease in interest and fee income from loans for the second quarter of
2009 compared with the same period in 2008.
Average investment security balances decreased $4.0 million from $38.6 million
in the second quarter of 2008 to $34.6 million in the second quarter of 2009.
The tax-equivalent average yield on investments decreased from 5.11% for the
second quarter of 2008 to 4.82% for the second quarter of 2009. Together, there
was a decrease in interest and dividend income on security investments of
$73,000 or 15.8%, from $462,000 for the second quarter of 2008 to $390,000 for
the second quarter of 2009. This decrease was primarily due to the suspension of
dividend income on FHLB of Atlanta stock for the second quarter of 2009.
Interest income on deposits in other banks decreased $1,000 from second quarter
2008 to second quarter 2009. Interest income on federal funds sold decreased
$4,000 from the second quarter of 2008 to the second quarter of 2009, reflecting
a decline in the average balances from $549,000 to $75,000.
Total interest expense decreased $482,000 or 22.0% from $2.19 million for the
second quarter of 2008 to $1.71 million for the second quarter of 2009 primarily
due to the overall decline in shorter-term market interest rates. Interest paid
on deposits decreased $209,000 or 12.6% from $1.65 million for the second
quarter of 2008 to $1.44 million for the second quarter of 2009. Average NOW
deposit balances decreased $12.3 million from the second quarter of 2008 to the
second quarter of 2009, while the average rate on NOW accounts decreased from
0.89% to 0.40% resulting in a reduction of $122,000 in NOW interest expense for
the second quarter of 2009. Average money market account balances decreased
$23.5 million from second quarter 2008 to second quarter 2009, while their
average rate decreased from 1.94% to 0.79% over the same period resulting in a
decrease of $315,000 of interest expense for the second quarter of 2009. Average
time deposit balances increased $63.0 million from second quarter of 2008 to the
second quarter of 2009 while the average rate on time deposits decreased from
3.66% to 2.86% resulting in an increase of $243,000 in interest expense for the
second quarter of 2009.
Interest expense on federal funds purchased decreased $17,000 for the second
quarter of 2009 when compared to the second quarter of 2008 due to the decline
in the average fed funds rate from 2.45% to 1.28%, as well as the $1.0 million
decrease in average federal funds purchased. Interest expense on FHLB of Atlanta
advances decreased $240,000 from the second quarter of 2008 to the second
quarter of 2009 due to the decrease in the average rate paid on FHLB advances
from 3.51% to 1.61%, partially offset by the increase in average FHLB advance
balances of $3.6 million, The average rate on total interest-bearing liabilities
decreased from 2.29% for the second quarter of 2008 to 1.65% for the second
quarter of 2009.
The following table sets forth information relating to the Company's average
balance sheet and reflects the average yield on assets and average cost of
liabilities for the periods indicated and the average yields and rates paid for
the
periods indicated. These yields and costs are derived by dividing income or
