(5)  Net Income Per Share

     Basic net income per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing
income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common
shares outstanding for the period.  Diluted net income per share reflects the
potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue
common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the
issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the entity.

The following is a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the
basic and diluted net income per share computations for the periods indicated:

(6) Stock Split

     On May 19, 2000, the Board of Directors authorized a 2 for 1 stock split
effected in the form of a 100% stock dividend paid on June 16, 2000 to the
stockholders of record at the close of business on May 19, 2000 of the Company's
$3 par value common stock. As a result of the split 720,670 additional shares
were issued, and retained earnings were reduced by $2,162. All references in the
accompanying consolidated financial statements to the number of common shares
and per-share amounts for 1999 have been restated to reflect this stock split
effected in the form of a dividend.


(7) Acquisition of Branches

     On May 5, 2000, the Company entered into a Purchase and Assumption
Agreement with One Valley Bank, Central Virginia, N.A. ("One Valley") under
which One Valley sold to the Company two branches in the Lynchburg, Virginia
area.  Under this transaction, the Company purchased the assets, including loans
of approximately $4,000, and assumed the depository liabilities, approximating
$24,000, of the two branches and received cash approximating $19,000.  In
addition, an intangible asset approximating $716 has been recognized which is
being amortized over a fifteen-year period using the straight-line method.  This
transaction was consummated at the close of business on August 11, 2000.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS(Amounts in 000's)

     The following discussion supplements and provides information about the
major components of the results of operations and financial condition, liquidity
and capital resources of Pinnacle Bankshares Corporation and subsidiary (the
"Company"). This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the
Company's Consolidated Financial Statements, and supplemental financial data.

OVERVIEW

     Total assets at September 30, 2000 were $176,524, up 14.66% from $153,956
at December 31, 1999.  The principal components of the Company's assets at the
end of the period were $37,183 in securities and $116,708 in net loans. During
the nine month period, net loans increased 15.85% or $15,971.  The increase in
loans resulted from an approximate $5,000 purchase of a loan participation as
well as an approximate $4,000 purchase of loans in connection with the
acquisition of two branches.  Both of these events occurred in the third quarter
of 2000.  The Company's lending activities are a principal source of income.

     Total liabilities at September 30, 2000 were $159,850, up from $138,366 at
December 31, 1999, with an increase in deposits of $21,276 or 15.60%. Deposits
increased as a result of the acquisition of two branches during the quarter that
resulted in an approximate $24 million of deposits being assumed.  The Company's
deposits are provided by individuals and businesses located within the
communities served.

     Total stockholders' equity at September 30, 2000 was $16,674 consisting of
$12,179 in retained earnings and $249 of net unrealized losses on securities
available for sale. At December 31, 1999, total shareholder's equity was
$15,590.

     The Company had net income of $1,292 for the nine months ended September
30, 2000, compared with net income of $1,124 for the comparable period in 1999,
an increase of 14.95%.  The Company had net income of $437 for the three months
ended September 30, 2000, compared with net income of $372 for the comparable
period in 1999, an increase of 17.47%. The results of operations for the nine
month period ended September 30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the
results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2000.


                                       11

     Profitability as measured by the Company's return on average assets (ROA)
was 1.09% for the nine months ended September 30, 2000, up from 1.00% for the
same period of 1999.  Another key indicator of performance, the return on
average equity (ROE) for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 was 10.74%,
compared to   9.80% for the nine months ended September 30, 1999.

NET INTEREST INCOME

     Net interest income represents the principal source of earnings for the
Company. Changes in the volume and mix of interest-earning assets and interest-
bearing liabilities, as well as their respective rates and yields, have a
significant impact on the level of net interest income.

     The net interest margin increased from 4.14% for the nine months ended
September 30, 1999, to 4.48% for the nine months ended September 30, 2000. Net
interest income was $4,745 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and is
attributable to interest income from loans and securities exceeding the cost
associated with interest paid on deposits.

     Interest expense on deposits increased 6.11% in the third quarter of 2000
over the third quarter of 1999.  Interest income on loans and securities
increased 11.37% in the third quarter of 2000 over the third quarter of 1999.
Interest and fees on loans was $7,414 for the nine month period ended September
30, 2000, up from $6,393 at September 30, 1999.

NON-INTEREST INCOME

     Non-interest income increased $161 or 28.05% for the nine month period
ended September 30, 2000 over the same period of 1999. Non-interest income
increased $71, or 34.80% when comparing the three months ended September 30,
2000 to the same period of 1999.  The Company's principal sources of non-
interest income are service charges and fees on deposit accounts, particularly
transaction accounts, and fees from loans.  Finance charges on the Business
Manager Receivables Financing Program was another source of the increase.  Fees
from this program increased $78 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000
compared to the same period in 1999.

                                       12

NON-INTEREST EXPENSE

     Non-interest expense increased $566 or 19.67%, for the nine month period
ended September 30, 2000 over the same period of 1999. An increase of $193 or
18.88% is reflected when comparing the three month period ended September 30,
2000 to the same period of 1999. The increase in non-interest expense when
comparing the two periods is attributed to the effect of overall growth of the
Company on personnel expenses, fixed asset costs associated with bank premises
additions and other operating expenses. The new Airport Branch facility, which
opened in late June, 1999, and the new Old Forest Road and Timberlake Plaza
facilities, which were acquired in August 2000, also contributed to the current
year's expense increase.

ALLOWANCE AND PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES

     A provision for loan losses of $270 was expensed in the first nine months
of 2000 in recognition of management's estimate of risks inherent with lending
activities. Among other factors, management considers the Company's historical
loss experience, the size and composition of the loan portfolio, the value and
adequacy of collateral and guarantors, non-performing credits, and current and
anticipated economic conditions.  There are additional risks of future loan
losses that cannot be precisely quantified or attributed to particular loans or
classes of loans.  Since those risks include general economic trends as well as
conditions affecting individual borrowers, the allowance for loan losses is an
estimate.  The allowance is also subject to regulatory examinations and
determination as to adequacy, which may take into account such factors as the
methodology used to calculate the allowance. The allowance for loan losses was
$1,053 as of September 30, 2000, and represents approximately .89% of total
loans outstanding.  Management believes the allowance was adequate as of
September 30, 2000.  Management evaluates the reasonableness of the allowance
for loan losses on a quarterly basis and adjusts the provision as deemed
necessary.

NON-PERFORMING ASSETS AND IMPAIRED LOANS

     Nonperforming assets, which consist of nonaccrual loans and foreclosed
properties, were $106 at September 30, 2000 and $48 December 31, 1999. There
were no foreclosed properties as of September 30, 2000 nor as of December 31,
1999. Nonaccrual loans were $106 at September 30, 2000 and $48 at December 31,
1999.  Loans are generally placed in nonaccrual status when the collection of
principal and interest is 90 days or more past due, unless the obligation is
both well-secured and in the process of collection.  Impaired loans equaled
nonaccrual loans at September 30, 2000.

LIQUIDITY

     Liquidity represents an institution's ability to meet present and future
financial obligations through either the sale or maturity of existing assets or
the acquisition of additional funds from alternative funding sources. The
Company's liquidity is provided by cash and due from banks, federal funds sold,
investments available for sale, managing investment maturities, interest-earning
deposits in other financial institutions and loan repayments.  The Company's
ability to obtain deposits and purchase funds at favorable rates also affects it
liquidity. As a result of the Company's management of liquid assets and the
ability to generate liquidity through alternative funding sources, management
believes that the bank maintains overall liquidity that is sufficient to satisfy
its depositors' requirements and to meet customers' credit needs. The Company's
ratio of liquid assets to deposits and short-term borrowings was 12.33% as of
September 30, 2000 as compared to 22.03% as of December 31, 1999. Additional
sources of liquidity available to the Company include its capacity to borrow
additional funds through correspondent banks. The Company derives cash flows
from its operating, investing, and financing activities. Cash flows of the
Company are primarily used to fund loans and securities and are provided by the
deposits and borrowings of the Company.



CAPITAL

     The Company's financial position at September 30, 2000 reflects liquidity
and capital levels currently adequate to fund anticipated future business
expansion.  Capital ratios are well in excess of required regulatory minimums
for a well-capitalized institution. The assessment of capital adequacy depends
on a number of factors such as asset quality, liquidity, earnings performance,
and changing competitive conditions and economic forces.  The adequacy of the
Company's capital is reviewed by management on an ongoing basis.  Management
seeks to maintain a capital structure that will assure an adequate level of
capital to support anticipated asset growth and to absorb potential losses.

     Stockholders' equity reached $16,674 at the end of the third quarter of
2000 compared to $15,590 at December 31, 1999. The leverage ratio consists of
Tier I capital divided by quarterly average assets.  At September 30, 2000, the
Company's leverage ratio was 10.23% compared to 10.47% at December 31, 1999.
Each of these exceeds the required minimum leverage ratio of 4%.
