Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
        Condition and Results of Operations

Overview

    The financial condition of F & M Bank Corp. remained strong in the first
quarter of 1999. Loans and deposits both decreased slightly, due to increased
competition within the Bank's market area. Income from operations, exclusive of
securities transactions, increased $83,000 (11.89%). Most of this increase
resulted from an increase in non-interest income and a reduction in the
provision for loan losses. Net income including securities transactions
decreased $494,000 (30.36%) as a result of a $577,000 after tax reduction in
securities gains realized.

Results of Operations

    The dollar amount of the tax equivalent net interest margin increased
$113,000 or 6.12% in the first quarter of 1999 compared to the first quarter of
1998. A decrease of forty-six basis points in the return on earning assets was
virtually offset by a forty-three basis point decrease in the cost of funds. The
decrease in the return on earning assets can be attributed to a general decline
in rates received on investment securities and increased competition creating
downward pressure on loan rates. The decrease in the cost of funds occurred
across all liability types. The reduction in interest expense on long-term debt
of two hundred thirty-six basis points resulted from the non-recurrence of
prepayment penalties incurred in 1998 to refinance debt and lower rates on the
remaining debt. The increase in net interest margin income is primarily
attributable to an increase in net earning assets (i.e. volume increases). A
schedule of the net interest margin for the first quarter of 1999 and 1998 is
shown on page 13 as Table I.

    Non-interest income decreased $879,000 in the first three months of 1999.
This decrease was primarily the result of a $930,000 decrease in securities
gains in 1999. Other non-interest income increased as a result of increased
credit insurance commissions and fees generated from title insurance and
brokerage activities.

    Non-interest expense increased 8.96% in 1999 compared to 1998. The principal
reason for this was a 8.03% increase in salaries and employee benefits. These
increases resulted from a combination of normal salary increases, staffing
increases and the expiration of benefit cost savings that resulted in 1998 from
the sale of stock received in the Trigon demutualization.

Financial Condition

    Securities

    The Company's securities portfolio is held to assist the Company in
liquidity and asset liability management. The securities portfolio consists of
investment securities (commonly referred to as "securities held to maturity")
and securities available for sale. Securities are classified as investment
securities when management has the intent and ability to hold the securities to
maturity. Investment securities are carried at amortized cost. Securities
available for sale include securities that may be sold in response to general
market fluctuations, general liquidity needs and other similar factors.
Securities available for sale are recorded at market value. Unrealized holding
gains and losses of available for sale securities are excluded from earnings and
reported (net of deferred income taxes) as a separate component of shareholders'
equity. As of March 31, 1999, the market value of all securities available for
sale exceeded their amortized cost by $2,034,000 ($1,252,000 after the
consideration of income taxes). This excess is the result of increases in the
value of equity securities held by the parent. Management has traditionally held
debt securities (regardless of classification) until maturity and thus it not
expect the minor fluctuation in the value of these securities to have a direct
impact on earnings.

        Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)

   Securities (Continued)

   Investments in securities increased 1.92% in the first quarter of 1999 as
loan originations slowed. The Company has invested in relatively short-term
maturities due to uncertainty in the direction of interest rates. This
philosophy allows for greater flexibility in an environment of rapidly changing
rates and has served the Company well over the years. Of the investments in
securities available for sale, 32% are invested in equities which are dividend
producing and subject to the dividend exclusion for taxation purposes. The
Company believes these investments render adequate current returns and they have
resulted in significant increases in value.

   Loan Portfolio

   The Company operates in an agriculturally dominated area, which includes the
counties of Rockingham, Page and Shenandoah in the western portion of Virginia.
The Company does not make a significant number of loans to borrowers outside its
primary service area. The Company is very active in local residential
construction mortgages. Commercial lending includes loans to small and medium
sized business within its service area.

    An inherent risk in the lending of money is that the borrower will not be
able to repay the loan under the terms of the original agreement. The allowance
for loan losses (see subsequent section) provides for this risk and is reviewed
periodically for adequacy. The risk associated with real estate and installment
notes to individuals is based upon employment, the local and national economies
and consumer confidence. All of these affect the ability of borrowers to repay
indebtedness. The risk associated with commercial lending is substantially based
on the strength of the local and national economies.

    While lending is geographically diversified within the service area, the
Company does have some concentration in agricultural loans (primarily poultry
farming). In the past two and a half years, the poultry industry has suffered
due to high grain prices, excess supplies of all types of meat and high
mortality rates among poults. Recently there has been a sharp improvement in
grain prices and some improvement in mortality rates. However, these
improvements have not been sufficient to completely offset depressed turkey
prices caused by an over supply of meat. In addition to direct agricultural
loans, a significant percentage of residential real estate loans and consumer
installment loans are made to borrowers employed in the agricultural sector of
the economy. The Company continues to monitor its past due loans closely and has
not experienced an increase in loan delinquencies as a result of these economic
factors.

   The first three months of 1999 resulted in a slight decline of $416,000 in
the loan portfolio. This decline appears to be the result of increased
competition from new banks entering the market area. The influx of new banks
caused a substantial amount of pressure on loan rates. The Bank has chosen to
attempt to retain as much of its existing loan portfolio as possible, but it has
not been aggressively pricing loans to achieve loan growth in the short-term.

   Non-performing loans include non-accrual loans, loans 90 days or more past
due and restructured loans. Non-accrual loans are loans on which interest
accruals have been suspended or discontinued permanently. Restructured loans are
loans, which have changed the original interest rate or repayment terms due to
financial hardship. Loans 90 days or more past due totaled $1,951,000 at March
31, 1999 compared to $2,059,000 at December 31, 1998. Approximately 90% of these
past due loans are secured by real estate. Although the potential exists for
some loan losses, management believes the bank is generally well secured and
continues to actively work with these customers to effect payment. The Company
had no non-accrual or restructured loans at March 31, 1999.

   Loan Portfolio (Continued)

     As of March 31, 1999 the Company did not hold any real estate that was 
acquired through foreclosure.

   Allowance for Loan Losses

   Management evaluates the loan portfolio in light of national and local
economic trends, changes in the nature and value of the portfolio and industry
standards. Specific factors considered by management in determining the adequacy
of the level of the allowance include internally generated loan review reports,
past due reports, historical loan loss experience and individual borrower's
financial health. This review also considers concentrations of loans in terms of
geography, business type or level of risk. Management evaluates non-performing
loans relative to their collateral value and makes the appropriate adjustments
to the allowance when needed.

   The provision for credit losses and changes in the allowance for loan losses
are shown in Note 4, Page 7.

   The allowance for credit losses of $1,153,000 at March 31, 1999 was down
$11,000 from its level at December 31, 1998. The allowance was equal to .87% and
 .88% of total loans at March 31, 1999 and December 31, 1998, respectively. The
Company believes that its allowance should be viewed in its entirety and,
therefore, is available for potential credit losses in its entire portfolio,
including loans, credit-related commitments and other financial instruments. In
the opinion of management, the allowance, when taken as a whole, is adequate to
absorb reasonably estimated credit losses inherent la the Company's portfolio.

   Deposits and Long-Term Debt

   The Company's main source of funds is customer deposits received from
individuals, governmental entities and businesses located within the Company's
service area. Deposit accounts include demand deposits, savings, money market
and certificates of deposit. The Company realized annualized deposit runoff of
5.59% in the first quarter of 1999. This runoff was mainly in the area of time
deposits and resulted from the maturing of promotional rate deposits and higher
rate plans offered by competitors.

   Borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta (FHLB) continue to be
an important mechanism in funding real estate loan growth in the area. The
Company's subsidiary bank borrows funds on a fixed rate basis. These borrowings
are used to fund either a fifteen-year fixed rate loan or a twenty-year loan, of
which the first ten years have a fixed rate. This program allows the Bank to
match the maturity of its fixed rate real estate portfolio with the maturity of
its debt and thus reduce its exposure to interest rate changes. Due to the
decrease in loan demand, no additional funds have been borrowed in 1999. Normal
repayments have totaled $833,000.

Item 2  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
        Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)

   Capital

   The Company maintains a strong capital base to expand facilities, promote
public confidence, support operations and grow at a manageable level. As of
March 31, 1999, the Company's total risk based capital and total capital to
total assets ratios were 18.60% and 12.74%, respectively. Both ratios are in
excess of regulatory minimums and exceed the ratios of the Company's peers.
Earnings have been sufficient to allow an increase in dividends in 1999 and
management has no reason to believe this increased level of dividends will not
continue.

   Liquidity

   Liquidity is the ability to meet present and future financial obligations
through either the sale or maturity of existing assets or the acquisition of
additional funds through liability management. Liquid assets include cash,
interest-bearing deposits with banks, federal funds sold, investments and loans
maturing within one year. The Company's ability to obtain deposits and purchase
funds at favorable rates determines its liquidity exposure. As a result of the
Company's management of liquid assets and the ability to generate liquidity
through liability funding, management believes that the Company maintains
overall liquidity sufficient to satisfy its depositors' requirements and meet
its customers' credit needs.

      Additional sources of liquidity available to the Company include, but are
not limited to, loan repayments, deposits obtained through the adjustment of
interest rates and purchases of federal funds. To further meet its liquidity
needs, the Company also maintains lines of credit with correspondent financial
institutions. The Company's subsidiary bank also has a line of credit with the
Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta that allows for secured borrowings. In the
past, growth in deposits and proceeds from the maturity of investment securities
has been sufficient to fund most of the net increase in loans and investment
securities.

   Interest Rate Sensitivity

   In conjunction with maintaining a satisfactory level of liquidity, management
must also control the degree of interest rate risk assumed on the balance sheet.
Managing this risk involves regular monitoring of interest sensitive assets
relative to interest sensitive liabilities over specific time intervals.

   At March 31, 1999 the Company is in an asset sensitive position. This asset
sensitive position typically produces an unfavorable contribution to earnings
during a period of decreasing rates. With the largest amount of interest
sensitive assets and liabilities repricing within five years, the Company
monitors these areas very closely. Early withdrawal of deposits, prepayments of
loans and loan delinquencies are some of the factors that could affect actual
versus expected cash flows. In addition, changes in rates on interest sensitive
assets and liabilities may not be equal, which could result in a change in net
interest margin. While the Company does not match each of its interest sensitive
assets against specific interest sensitive liabilities, it does monitor closely
the maturities of loans, investments and time deposits to limit interest rate
risk and the financial effect of market rate changes.

   A summary of asset and liability repricing opportunities is shown on page 14
as Table II.

Item 2, Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
        Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)

   Effect of Newly Issued Accounting Standards

   The Company does not believe that any newly issued but as yet unapplied
accounting standards will have a material impact on the Company's financial
position or operations.

   Year 2000 Readiness Disclosure

   The following statements are being designated as Year 2000 Readiness
Disclosures under the Year 2000 Information and Readiness Disclosure Act,
enacted by the 105th Congress on October 19, 1998.

   The Company has formed a year 2000 project team to identify information
technology and non-technology systems that require modification for the year
2000. A project plan has been established with goals and target dates. The
Company has completed the assessment phase and has begun the renovation and
validation phases of the project. Substantially all mission critical systems
have been tested. Redeployment of renovated or new equipment will continue
through mid-1999.

   The impact of year 2000 issues on the Company depends not only on corrective
actions that the Company takes, but also on the actions of governmental
agencies, businesses and other third parties that provide services to, or
receive services from, the Company. The Company has implemented an ongoing
process of identifying and contacting mission critical third parties to
determine their year 2000 readiness. Although the Company has undertaken these
measures, there can be no assurance that mission critical third parties will
adequately address their year 2000 issues.

   The Company is developing contingency plans for implementation in the event
that testing of alternate vendors to provide mission critical systems. There may
be certain mission critical third parties, such as utilities or
telecommunications companies, where alternative arrangements or sources are
limited or unavailable.

   The Company has reviewed its significant loan customers to assess the risk of
increased problem loans and credit losses due to borrowers failure to adequately
address year 2000 issues. Although it is not possible to quantify the potential
impact of such credit losses at this time, management has designated a portion
of the allowance for loan losses as an undesignated reserve which can be used to
absorb uncertainties, including year 2000 problems, within the loan portfolio.

   The Company has incurred expenses throughout 1998 related to its year 2000
project. Additional funds have been budgeted in anticipation of costs related to
testing and renovation that will be incurred during 1999. At the present time,
management of the Company does not believe that the costs of addressing this
issue will have a material adverse impact on the Company's financial condition.
If, however, the Company and third parties upon which it relies are unable to
address this issue in a timely manner, it could result in a material financial
risk to the Company. The Company plans to continue to devote all resources
necessary to resolve any significant year 2000 issues in a timely manner.
