                         Report of Independent Auditors

Board of Directors
City Holding Company

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits
of City Holding Company Profit Sharing and 401(k) Plan (the Plan) as of December
31, 1999 and 1998, and the related statements of changes in net assets available
for  benefits  for the years then  ended.  These  financial  statements  are the
responsibility  of the Plan's  management.  Our  responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable  assurance about whether the financial  statements are free
of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting  the amounts and  disclosures in the financial  statements.  An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by  management,  as well as  evaluating  the  overall  financial  statement
presentation.  We believe  that our audits  provide a  reasonable  basis for our
opinion.

In our opinion,  the financial  statements  referred to above present fairly, in
all  material  respects,  the net assets  available  for benefits of the Plan at
December  31,  1999 and 1998,  and the changes in its net assets  available  for
benefits  for the years  then ended in  conformity  with  accounting  principles
generally accepted in the United States.

Our audits  were made for the  purpose  of  forming an opinion on the  financial
statements taken as a whole. The accompanying  supplemental  schedules of assets
held  for  investment  purposes  at end of year as of  December  31,  1999,  and
reportable transactions for the year then ended are presented for the purpose of
additional  analysis  and are  not  part of the  financial  statements,  but are
supplementary  information  required  by  the  Department  of  Labor  Rules  and
Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure  under the Employee  Retirement  Income
Security Act of 1974. These supplemental schedules are the responsibility of the
Plan's  management.  The  supplemental  schedules  have  been  subjected  to the
auditing  procedures  applied in our audits of the financial  statements and, in
our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic
financial statements taken as a whole.

                          Notes to Financial Statements

                                December 31, 1999


1. Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Accounting

The  accounting  records of the City Holding  Company  Profit Sharing and 401(k)
Plan (the Plan) are maintained on the accrual basis of accounting.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial  statements in conformity  with generally  accepted
accounting  principles  requires  management to make  estimates  that affect the
amounts  reported in the financial  statements and  accompanying  notes.  Actual
results could differ from these estimates.

Investments

The Plan  estimates  the fair value of its  investment  in City Holding  Company
common stock based on the stock's quoted trade price.  Investments in mutual and
commingled funds are valued at the Plan's proportionate share of the quoted fair
value of net assets in each fund as of December 31, 1999 and 1998.

Group Annuity Contract: The group annuity contract represents an investment in a
Deposit  Administration  Fund maintained by an insurance company and is included
in the Mutual and Commingled  funds on the Statement of Net Assets Available for
Benefits.  Interest  is  credited  to  the  Fund,  compounded  annually,  and is
determined  by annual  interest  rates which will not be less than the following
(as specified in the contract):

          Interest Rate                       Contract Year
   ---------------------------------------------------------------

              5.50%                                1998
              5.00%                                1999

At least  30 days  prior  to the  expiration  of the  interest  guarantees,  the
Hartford Life Insurance Company shall advise the Plan of new interest guarantees
that apply to the  contract.  In addition to the interest  guarantees  above,  a
long-term  guaranteed  interest  rate of 3%  applies  to all  contributions  and
earnings received,  and applies for the life of the contract.  The group annuity
contract  is valued at cost plus  reinvested  income,  which  approximates  fair
value.  Participant  directed  transfers  may be made under the  contract.  Such
transfers will not be subject to withdrawal  charges,  market value adjustments,
or penalties  provided that the amount of the withdrawal,  when added to the sum
of all  withdrawals  during the preceding 12 months,  does not exceed 12% of the
balance  of the fund 12 months  earlier.  Such  withdrawals  are  subject to the
consent of the insurance company.


                                                                               4

                         Profit Sharing and 401(k) Plan

                    Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

Each participant may designate the percentage of his or her  contributions to be
invested into any of the five investment options, offered by the Plan.

Reclassification

Certain  amounts in the 1998  financial  statements  have been  reclassified  to
conform to the 1999 presentation.

2. Description of Plan

The following description of the Plan provides general information. Participants
should refer to the summary Plan  description for a complete  description of the
Plan's  provisions.  The Plan, which was adopted and became effective January 1,
1991,  is a defined  contribution  savings and profit  sharing plan covering all
employees of City Holding  Company and its  subsidiaries  (the Company) who have
completed  one year of  service  and have  attained  the age of 21.  The Plan is
subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974
(ERISA).

The  Company's  contribution  consists  of a 50%  match of the  first 6% of each
eligible participant's contribution. Matching contributions are made with common
stock of the Plan sponsor, City Holding Company.

Participants may elect to contribute,  on a salary-deferral  basis, up to 15% of
annual  compensation,   subject  to  federal  income  tax  limits.  Included  in
participant  contributions  are  approximately  $42,000 and $522,000 in 1999 and
1998,  respectively,  of participant account balances  rolled-over from previous
employer plans and approximately  $923,000 in 1998 transferred in as a result of
three plan mergers during the year due to Company acquisitions.

Vesting

Participants are immediately  fully vested in their voluntary  contributions and
employer matching  contributions,  plus actual earnings  thereon.  A participant
becomes vested in discretionary profit sharing contributions as follows:

                         Profit Sharing and 401(k) Plan

                    Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

There were no discretionary  profit sharing  contributions  during 1999 or 1998.
Forfeitures  of  terminated   participants'   non-vested  account  balances  are
allocated to eligible  participants who are employed on December 31 of each year
based on their annual compensation.

Although  it has not  expressed  any intent to do so, the  Company has the right
under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate the
plan  subject  to the  provisions  of ERISA.  In the event of Plan  termination,
participants will become 100 percent vested in the accounts.

Benefits

Benefits,  representing  each  participant's  share in the Plan,  are  generally
payable upon the participating  employee's  death,  retirement,  disability,  or
separation from the Company. Benefits are payable in the form of cash, stock, or
a combination thereof.

3. Federal Income Taxes

The Plan has received a determination  letter from the Internal  Revenue Service
dated August 27, 1992,  stating that the Plan is qualified  under Section 401(a)
of the Internal Revenue Code (the Code) and, therefore,  the Plan is exempt from
taxation. Once qualified, the Plan is required to operate in conformity with the
Code to maintain its qualification.  The Plan Administrator believes the Plan is
being operated in compliance  with the applicable  requirements of the Code and,
therefore, believes that the Plan is qualified and is tax exempt.

4. Related Party Transactions

The Company provides certain accounting and administrative  services to the Plan
without charge. The Company also pays certain  administrative costs on behalf of
the Plan, including legal and accounting fees.

                                                                               6

5. Investments

During  1999 and  1998,  the  Plan's  five  investments  (including  investments
purchased,  sold as well as held during the year)  appreciated  in fair value as
determined by quoted market prices as follows:
