FINANCIAL INFORMATION

CENTRAL FIDELITY BANKS, INC.
ITEM 1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 1997, the statement of
consolidated income, the statement of consolidated cash flows and the
statement of changes in consolidated shareholders' equity for the
three-month periods ended March 31, 1997 and 1996 are unaudited and
do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally
accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the
opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal
recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have
been included. Operating results for the three-month period ended March
31, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
expected for the year ending December 31, 1997. For further information,
refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in
the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 1996 which is the source of the Company's balance sheet
as of that date.
ACCOUNTING CHANGE
- ------------------------------------
Change in Accounting Principles
- ----------------------------------------------
On January 1, 1997, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 125, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing
of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities," (SFAS 125), which
requires companies to recognize the financial and servicing assets it
controls and the liabilities it has incurred after a transfer of financial
assets, and derecognize financial assets when control has been surrendered, and
derecognize liabilities when extinguished. In addition, a transfer of financial
assets in which the transferor surrenders control over those assets is
accounted for as a sale to the extent that consideration other than
beneficial interests in the transferred assets is received in exchange.
The adoption of SFAS 125 is not expected to have a material impact on
the financial condition or results of operations of the Company.
3
The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 (SFAS 128), "Earnings Per
Share," in February, 1997. SFAS 128 supersedes APB Opinion No. 15,
"Earnings Per Share," and specifies the computation, presentation, and
disclosure requirements for earnings per share (EPS) for entities with
publicly held common stock. SFAS 128 replaces primary EPS and fully
diluted EPS with basic EPS and diluted EPS, respectively. It also
requires dual presentation of basic EPS and diluted EPS on the face of
the income statement for all entities with complex capital structures and
requires a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic
EPS computation to the numerator and denominator of the diluted EPS
computation. The Company will implement the new disclosures at
December 31, 1997, as required. The adoption of SFAS 128 will not have
a material effect on the Company's EPS.
The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 129 (SFAS 129), "Disclosure of
Information about Capital Structure," in February, 1997. SFAS 129 requires
all entities, public and nonpublic, that were subject to the requirements of
APB Opinions No. 10, "Omnibus Opinion," No. 15, "Earnings Per Share,"
and FASB Statement No. 47, "Disclosure of Long-Term Obligations" to
disclose certain information about its capital structure. The Company will
implement the new disclosures at December 31, 1997, as required. The
adoption of SFAS 129 is not expected to have a material impact on the
financial condition or results of operations of the Company.

CENTRAL FIDELITY BANKS, INC.
ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations
This discussion is intended to provide information about the
Company's financial condition and results of operations which may not
be readily apparent from the consolidated financial statements and
tables included in this report. Reference should be made to those
statements and tables and other selected financial data presented
elsewhere in this report for an understanding of the following discussion
and analysis.
Results of Operations
- -----------------------------
Net income for the first three months ended March 31, 1997 was
$30.4 million, 8.6% higher than the $28.0 million earned in the first three
months of 1996. On a per share basis, net income increased 10.6% to
$.52 from $.47.
On a tax-equivalent basis, net interest income for the three months
ended March 31, 1997 was $100.9 million, an 8.6% increase from the net
interest income earned in the corresponding 1996 period. The net
interest margin was 4.18% for the three months ended March 31, 1997, up
42 basis points from 3.76% during the same period in 1996. The growth in
net interest income and net interest margin during the first three months of
1997 were impacted by the higher yield on earning assets and a reduced
cost of interest-bearing liabilities. For the first three months of 1997,
average earning assets and interest earned on earning assets declined
$137.7 million and $250,000, respectively, from the level recorded in the
first three months of 1996. The declines in average earning assets and
interest earned on earning assets were due primarily to the lower
levels in securities available for sale and money market investments
during the first three months of 1997. The yield on average earning
assets increased 17 basis points. The average interest-bearing
liabilities declined $300,000, or 3.5% from the three months ended March
31, 1996. Interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities declined $8.2
million to $98.1 million, or 7.7%, from the corresponding 1996 period, and
the cost of interest-bearing liabilities declined 18 basis points.
15
For the three-month period ended March 31, 1997, the Company's
interest rate swap activities resulted in declines in interest income of
$283,000 and interest expense of $469,000 compared to a $197,000
decrease in interest income and a $126,000 increase in interest
expense for the corresponding period in 1996. The Company's interest
rate swap activities resulted in increase of net interest income of
$186,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and reduction of net
interest income of $323,000 for the same period in 1996.
The provision for loan losses was $14.2 million for the three months
ended March 31, 1997 compared with $10.3 million recorded for the
corresponding period in 1996. The increase in the provision was
prompted by a higher level of net charge-offs. The higher levels of net
charge-offs for the first three months of 1997 resulted principally from
continued losses in consumer portfolios and a $2.3 million nonrecurring
loss in the commercial loan portfolio.
Noninterest income totalled $24.5 million for the three months ended
March 31, 1997 compared with $20.6 million for the same period in 1996,
representing an increase of 18.9% The increase resulted from higher
trust income and profits on securities available for sale and trading
account securities, and growth in deposit fees and charges and other
miscellaneous fee categories.
Noninterest expense grew 6.6% to $64.5 million for the first three
months of 1997 compared with the same period in 1996. The growth in
noninterest expense was due primarily from higher personnel,
occupancy and equipment costs.
Balance Sheet
- --------------------
Total assets as of March 31, 1997 were $10.6 billion, a modest
increase from $10.5 billion at the end of 1996. Total loans at March 31,
1997 were $6.8 billion, or 1.4% higher than at December 31, 1996,
representing growth primarily in both the commercial and consumer
mortgages of the portfolio. Total deposits were $8.0 billion at March 31,
1997, flat from year-end 1996's level. Shareholders' equity at March
31, 1997 was $822.2 million, or 7.8% of total assets. At December
31, 1996, shareholders' equity was $846.5 million, or 8.0% of total assets.
Book value per share declined from $14.26 at December 31, 1996 to
$14.04 at March 31, 1997, due principally to the acquisition and retirement
of shares under the Company's Stock Repurchase Program.
The return on average total assets during the first three months of
1997 was 1.18% compared to 1.07% for the comparable 1996 period.
The return on average shareholders' equity was 14.76% versus 13.61%
in 1996.
16
Asset Quality
- -----------------
Nonperforming assets as of March 31, 1997 were $53.4 million, or
.50% of total assets, compared to $54.0 million or .51% of total assets at
December 31, 1996 and $59.7 million or .57% of total assets at March 31,
1996. At March 31, 1997, nonperforming assets were .78% of loans and
foreclosed properties, compared to .80% at December 31, 1996 and
.93% at March 31, 1996. The lower level of nonperforming assets was
primarily a result of overall improved quality in the loan portfolio.
The allowance for loan losses was $110.0 million at March 31, 1997,
December 31, 1996 and March 31, 1996. At March 31, 1997, the
allowance for loan losses was 1.62% of loans, compared to 1.64% at
December 31, 1996 and 1.73% at March 31, 1996. At March 31, 1997, the
allowance for loan losses to nonperforming assets was 2.06x,
compared to 2.04x at December 31, 1996 and 1.84x at March 31, 1996.
Net loan charge-offs for the three months ended March 31, 1997 were
$14.2 million, representing .85% of average loans on an annualized
basis. Net loan charge-offs were $11.9 million or .71% of average loans
for the three months ended December 31, 1996 and $10.3 million or .65%
of average loans for the three months ended March 31, 1996.
The allowance for loan losses represents management's estimate of
an amount adequate to absorb potential losses inherent in the loan
portfolio. In assessing the adequacy of the allowance, management
relies predominately on its ongoing review of the lending process and
the risk characteristics of the portfolio in the aggregate. Among other
factors, management considers the Company's loan loss experience,
the amount of past-due and nonperforming loans, current and
anticipated economic conditions, and the estimated current values of
collateral securing loans in assessing the level of the allowance for loan
losses.
While it is the Company's policy to charge off in the current period
loans for which a loss is considered probable, there are additional risks
of future losses which cannot be quantified precisely or attributed to
particular loans or classes of loans. Because these risks include the
state of the economy as well as conditions affecting individual
borrowers, management's judgment of the allowance is necessarily
approximate and imprecise. It is also subject to regulatory examinations
and determinations as to its adequacy.
17
Capital Resources
- -------------------------
At March 31, 1997, the Company's risk-based capital and leverage
ratios exceeded the Federal Reserve's minimum guidelines. At March
31, 1997, the Company's Tier 1 and total risk-based capital were $772.5
million and $1.0 billion, as compared to $778.2 million and $1.0 billion at
December 31, 1996, and $746.1 million and $990.2 million at March 31,
1996, respectively. The ratios of Tier 1 and total risk-based capital to
risk-weighted assets were 9.91% and 13.09% at March 31, 1997,
compared to 10.09% and 13.29% at year-end 1996, and 9.92% and
13.17% at March 31, 1996, respectively. At March 31, 1997, the Company's
leverage ratio was 7.53%, compared to 7.57% at December 31, 1996 and
7.17% at March 31, 1996. At March 31, 1997, the Bank's total risk-based
capital and leverage ratios were 12.85% and 7.36%, respectively.
Based upon the risk-based capital and leverage requirements,
Central Fidelity's capital structure places it well above the Federal
Reserve Board's minimum guidelines and in the well capitalized
category when measured against FDIC criteria. The Company will
continue to review and monitor the asset mix and pricing, and other areas
determined to be most affected by these capital requirements.
During the three months ended March 31, 1997, the Company
purchased and retired 989,000 shares of its common stock for a total of
$27,744,000 under the Stock Repurchase Program and has 3.4 million
shares authorized for future buybacks. Repurchases under the
program may be discontinued or interrupted at any time.
On May 1, 1997, the Company entered into an accelerated stock
repurchase program under which 2,000,000 shares of its outstanding
common stock were acquired and cancelled for an initial amount of
$55,810,000; final settlement on this transaction is expected to occur in the
third quarter 1997. The amount of the settlement is not presently known,
however, its effect upon the capital accounts of the Company is expected
to be immaterial. The source of funds for this transaction was the sale on
April 23, 1997 of $100,000,000 of Trust Preferred Securities sold by a
newly created special purpose subsidiary.
18
Off-Balance-Sheet Derivatives
- ------------------------------------------
In the context of its asset/liability management, the Company is a
limited end-user of off-balance-sheet financial derivatives as a
cost-efficient vehicle for managing interest rate sensitivity. Interest rate
swaps have been the main derivative instrument used to modify the
repricing characteristics of various balance sheet assets and liabilities.
The interest rate swaps entered into by the Company are essentially
commitments to participate in cash settlements with a counterparty at
various future dates as agreed to in the swap contract. These cash
settlements result from movements in interest rates and are based on
differences in specific rate indexes as applied to the notional principal
amount of the contract.
Market values of derivatives transactions fluctuate based upon
movements in the underlying financial indices such as interest rates.
Market values are monitored on a monthly basis through external
pricing mechanisms and then tested by using internal calculations. The
Company's objective measurement system together with risk limits and
timely reporting to senior management help to mitigate the possibility of
any gain or loss recognition on the Company's interest rate swaps. Any
change in market value fluctuation generally correspond to market
fluctuation in the underlying asset or liability being hedged. In the event
that a derivative product is terminated prior to its contractual maturity, it is
the Company's policy to recognize the resulting gain or loss over the
remaining life of the underlying hedged asset or liability.
Financial derivatives may expose the Company to credit risk to the
extent of the fair value gain of an instrument should the counterparty
default on its obligation to perform. The Company seeks to reduce
credit risk by dealing only with highly rated counterparties and by setting
exposure limits based on independent industry ratings from the major
rating agencies and other relevant criteria. Furthermore, the Company
uses bilateral netting agreements and collateral arrangements to
reduce credit risk. Collateral is delivered by either party when the fair
value of the transaction exceeds established thresholds of credit risk.
The Company has also entered into a limited number of interest rate
swap agreements to accommodate the needs of commercial
customers. In order to offset the interest rate risk of customer swaps, the
Company has executed offsetting transactions with third parties.
The Company intends to continue using off-balance-sheet financial
derivatives as a limited end-user in the prudent management of interest
rate sensitivity.
