AMERICAN NATIONAL BANKSHARES INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Basis of Presentation
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated
financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring
accruals) necessary to present fairly American National Bankshares' financial
position as of March 31, 1998, the results of its operations and its cash flows
for the three months then ended. Operating results for the three month period
ended March 31, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
expected for the year ended December 31, 1998. A summary of the Corporation's
significant accounting policies is set forth in Note 1 to the Consolidated
Financial Statements in the Corporation's Annual Report to Shareholders for
1997.
2. Investment Securities
The Bank classifies investment securities in one of three categories: held
to maturity, available for sale and trading.
Debt securities acquired with both the intent and ability to be held to
maturity are classified as held to maturity and reported at amortized cost.
Securities which may be used to meet liquidity needs arising from
unanticipated deposit and loan fluctuations, changes in regulatory capital and
investment requirements, or unforeseen changes in market conditions, including
interest rates, market values or inflation rates, are classified as available
for sale. Securities available for sale are reported at estimated fair value,
with unrealized gains and losses reported as a separate component of
stockholders' equity, net of tax. Gains or losses realized from the sale of
securities available for sale are determined by specific identification and are
included in non-interest income.
Trading account securities, of which none were held on March 31, 1998 and
December 31, 1997, are reported at fair value. Market adjustments, fees, gains
or losses and income earned on trading account securities are included in
non-interest income. Gains or losses realized from the sale of trading
securities are determined by specific identification and are included in
non-interest income. The Bank's investment policy currently prohibits trading
account securities.
Management determines the appropriate classification of securities at the
time of purchase. Securities classified as held for investment are those
securities that management intends to hold to maturity, subject to continued
credit-worthiness of the issuer, and that the Bank has the ability to hold on a
long-term basis. Accordingly, these securities are stated at cost, adjusted for
amortization of premium and accretion of discount on the level yield method.
Securities designated as available for sale have been adjusted to their
respective market values and a corresponding adjustment made to shareholders'
investment at March 31, 1998 and December 31, 1997.
3. Commitments and Contingencies
The Bank has an established credit availability in the amount of
$29,000,000 with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta. As of March 31, 1998 and
December 31, 1997, there were no borrowings outstanding under this availability.
Commitments to extend credit, which amount to $70,242,000 at March 31, 1998
and $64,774,000 at December 31, 1997, represent legally binding agreements to
lend to a customer with fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses.
Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being funded, the
<PAGE>
total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future liquidity
requirements.
Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Bank
guaranteeing the performance of a customer to a third party. Those guarantees
are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements. At
March 31, 1998 and December 31, 1997 the Bank had $1,323,000 and $1,500,000,
respectively, in outstanding standby letters of credit.
4. Merger and Acquisitions
On March 14, 1996, the Corporation completed the acquisition of Mutual
Savings Bank, F.S.B. (Mutual) upon the approval of the shareholders of each
company. The Corporation exchanged 879,805 common shares, at an exchange ratio
of .705 of a share of the Corporation's common stock, for Mutual's 1,248,100
common shares.
The transaction was accounted for as a pooling of interests. The financial
position and results of operations of the Corporation and Mutual were combined
and the fiscal year of Mutual was conformed to the Corporation's fiscal year.
In October 1996, the Corporation acquired the branch office of FirstSouth
Bank located in Yanceyville, North Carolina. In addition to the branch
facilities and an ATM located in Yanceyville, the Corporation acquired
$4,775,000 in loans and assumed deposits of $21,405,000. This transaction was
accounted for as a purchase. In conjunction with the Yanceyville purchase, the
Corporation recorded a core deposit intangible of $1,516,000, approximately 7%
of the deposits assumed.
5. New Accounting Pronouncements
The Corporation adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income"("SFAS No. 130"), during the first quarter
of 1998. This statement establishes standards for reporting a measure of all
changes in equity of an enterprise that result from transactions and economic
events of the period other than transactions with owners ("economic income").
SFAS No. 130 requires an enterprise to report comprehensive income in the notes
to the financial statements on an interim basis. The following is a detail of
comprehensive income for the quarter ended March 31, 1998:
Net Income $1,660,568
Unrealized holding gains arising during period
(net of tax expense of $15,182) 29,472
----------
Total comprehensive income $1,690,040
==========
The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") also issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information", in June 1997, which establishes new
standards for reporting information about operating segments in annual and
interim financial statements. This statement also requires descriptive
information about the way operating segments are determined, the products and
services provided by the segments and the nature of differences between
reportable segment measurements and those used for the consolidated entity. This
Statement is effective for years beginning after December 15, 1997. Adoption in
interim financial statements is not required until the year following initial
adoption. Once adopted, however, comparative prior period information is
required. The Corporation is evaluating the Statement and plans to adopt as
required in 1998. Adoption is not expected to have a material impact on the
Corporation.
<PAGE>
In February, 1998, FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 132, "Employers' Disclosures about Pension and Other Postretirement
Benefits"("SFAS No. 132"), an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, and 106.
This Statement revises employers' disclosures about pension and other
postretirement benefit plans. It does not change the measurement or recognition
of those plans. It standardizes the disclosure requirements for pensions and
other postretirement benefits to the extent practicable, requires additional
information on changes in the benefit obligations and fair values of plan assets
that will facilitate financial analysis, and eliminates certain disclosures
previously required.
FASB No. 132 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
1997. The Corporation plans to adopt SFAS No. 132, as required, in 1998.
Adoption is not expected to have a material impact on the Corporation.

AMERICAN NATIONAL BANKSHARES INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
EARNINGS and CAPITAL
The Corporation's net income for the first quarter of 1998 was $1,661,000,
an increase of 8.1% over the $1,537,0000 earned during the first quarter of
1997. On a basic and diluted per share basis, net income totaled $.54 for the
quarter, up 14.9% from $.47 in 1997. On an annualized basis, return on average
total assets was 1.56% for the first quarter of 1998 compared to 1.43% for the
first quarter of 1997. Return on average common shareholders' equity increased
12.6% to 13.18% in the first quarter of 1998 from 11.7% for the first quarter of
1997.
The Corporation decreased shareholders' equity during the second quarter of
1997 with the repurchase of 228,065 shares of common stock for $6,278,000. The
7% reduction in outstanding shares of common stock during second quarter 1997
enhanced net income per share and return on equity for the first quarter of 1998
compared to the first quarter of 1997.
The Corporation's growth in earnings resulted from three principal factors.
First, net interest income improved $240,000, or 5.7% from a higher net interest
spread in first quarter 1998 compared to first quarter 1997 (see discussion on
NET INTEREST INCOME). Second, the 21.4% growth in noninterest income in the 1998
quarter over 1997 demonstrates the continued success of the Corporation's
expanded trust and investment services and the increase in fees from originating
and selling fixed rate mortgage loans. Third, the Corporation has controlled
noninterest expenses which have grown at a slower 6.3% pace in the first quarter
of 1998 over the first quarter of 1997 as compared to growth in combined net
interest income and noninterest income of 8.1%.
TRENDS and FUTURE EVENTS
During the first quarter of 1998, net loans increased $3,848,000 or 1.5%.
The increase is the result of moderate loan demand and indicates the continuance
of a healthy local economy. The increase in loans was funded by higher deposits
and increased repurchase agreements. Total investment securities increased
during the first quarter of 1998 by $4,545,000 or 3.2%.
Total deposits increased $2,300,000 or .7% during the first quarter of 1998
and repurchase agreements increased $6,205,000 or 34.4% during the same period.
Historically, deposits have been flat or down in the first quarter of the year.
The increase in repurchase agreements reflects the trend by commercial accounts
to earn higher rates on cash balances.
During the first quarter of 1998, the Corporation declared a quarterly cash
dividend of $.21 per share. This dividend was paid on March 27, 1998 to
shareholders of record on March 13, 1998.
On March 26, 1997 the Federal Reserve Board increased short term interest
rates by 1/4% and the major money center banks followed by raising the prime
rate by 1/4%. U.S. Treasury yields have declined almost 1% since March 1997 in
response to the Asian financial crisis and due to low inflation.
At the annual meeting of shareholders, held April 22, 1997, the
shareholders approved a Stock Option Plan permitting the Corporation to issue up
to a total of 150,000 shares of common stock, upon the exercise of options
granted under the plan, prior to December 31, 2006. The Plan is administered by
the Stock Option Committee of the Board of Directors which consists only of the
Company's independent non-employee Directors.
<PAGE>
YEAR 2000 ISSUE
The Corporation is aware of the issues associated with the programming code
in existing computer systems as the millennium ("year 2000") approaches. The
year 2000 problem is pervasive and complex as virtually every computer operation
and many equipment systems will be affected in some way by the rollover of the
two digit year value to 00. The issue is whether computer systems will properly
recognize date sensitive information when the year changes to 2000. Systems that
do not properly recognize such information could generate erroneous data or
cause a system to fail.
The Corporation is utilizing both internal and external resources to
identify, correct or reprogram, and test systems for year 2000 compliance. It is
anticipated that all reprogramming and most testing will be completed by
December 31,1998, allowing additional time for testing on reprogrammed systems.
To date, confirmations have been received from the Corporation's primary
processing vendors that plans are being developed to address processing of
transaction in the year 2000. An educational process is planned to assist and
assure that major customers are year 2000 compliant.
Based on a preliminary study, the Corporation expects to spend
approximately $125,000 in 1998 and 1999 to modify its computer information
systems enabling proper processing of transactions relating to the year 2000 and
beyond. The amount expensed in first quarter 1998 was immaterial.
NET INTEREST INCOME
Net interest income on a fully taxable equivalent ("FTE") basis was
$4,564,000 for the first quarter of 1998 compared to $4,322,000 for the first
quarter of 1997, an increase of 5.6%. The interest rate spread increased to
3.86% from 3.52% and the net yield on earning assets increased to 4.55% from
4.26% in the first quarter of 1998 compared to the first quarter of 1997,
respectively. These increases were due to higher yields on loans and investments
and lower yields on interest-bearing liabilities and because higher yielding
loan balances rose while lower yielding investment balances declined. The
percentage increase in the interest rate spread was higher than the percentage
increase in net interest income and the net yield on earning assets because
average interest earning assets declined $4,740,000 while interest-bearing
liabilities only declined $1,658,000. Average shareholders' equity was down
$2,169,000 in first quarter of 1998 compared to first quarter of 1997 due to the
stock repurchase in second quarter 1997.

ASSET QUALITY
Nonperforming assets include loans on which interest is no longer accrued,
loans classified as troubled debt restructurings and foreclosed properties.
Nonperforming assets declined from $778,000 at December 31, 1997 to $492,000 at
March 31, 1998.
Foreclosed properties of $385,000 at March 31,1998 and December 31, 1997
include two commercial real estate properties.
Loans in a nonaccrual status at March 31, 1998 were $107,000 compared with
$393,000 at December 31, 1997. Loans on accrual status and past due 90 or more
at March 31, 1998 were $205,000 compared with $181,000 at December 31, 1997.
Total nonperforming loans and loans past due 90 days or more as a
percentage of net loans were .1% at March 31, 1998 and .2% at December 31, 1997.
Total nonperforming loans and loans past due 90 days or more, on an accrual
status, are considered low by industry standards. Net charge-offs for the
quarter as a percentage of average loans declined to .02% in 1998 from .04% in
the 1997 quarter. These charge-off ratios are low by industry standards.
During the first quarter of 1998 the gross amount of interest income that
would have been recorded on nonaccrual loans and restructured loans at March 31,
1998, if all such loans had been accruing interest at the original contractual
rate, was $3,000. No interest payments were recorded during the reporting period
as interest income for all such nonperforming loans.
PROVISION and RESERVE FOR LOAN LOSSES
The provision for loan losses was $252,000 for the first quarter of 1998
and $243,000 for the first quarter of 1997. The reserve for loan losses totaled
$3,465,000 at March 31, 1998 an increase of 5.7% over the $3,277,000 recorded at
December 31, 1997. The ratio of reserves to loans, less unearned discount, was
1.34% at March 31, 1998 and 1.29% at December 31, 1997. In Management's opinion,
the current reserve for loan losses is adequate.
NON-INTEREST INCOME
Non-interest income for the first quarter of 1998 was $896,000, an increase
of 21.4% from the $738,000 reported in the first quarter of 1997. The major
reasons for the 1998 first quarter growth in non-interest income were a 21.5%
increase in trust and investment services to $519,000 due to growth in managed
investment accounts and an increase in mortgage income of 300% to $104,000 due
to increased origination and sale of fixed rate residential mortgage loans.
Service charges on deposit fees were $187,000 for the first quarter of 1998, up
1.1% over the first quarter of 1997 while non-deposit fees and insurance
commissions were up 114.8% to $58,000 due to increased non-customer ATM fees.
NON-INTEREST EXPENSE
Non-interest expense for the first quarter of 1998 was $2,673,000, a 6.3%
increase from the $2,515,000 reported for the same period last year. Salaries
increased 2.4% from the same period last year to $1,206,000 in 1998 while
pension and other employee benefits increased 5.9% to $287,000. Occupancy and
equipment expense increased 25.9% due to new equipment, primarily related to
technology. Core deposit intangible amortization of $112,000 and $113,000 for
first quarter 1998 and 1997, respectively, represents the amortization of the
premium paid for deposits acquired at Gretna in August 1995 and Yanceyville in
1996. Other non-interest expense increased .8% to $498,000 in the first quarter
of 1998.

INCOME TAX PROVISION
The income tax provision for the first quarter of 1998 was $749,000, an
increase of $107,000 from the $642,000 reported a year earlier. The effective
tax rate for the first quarter of 1998 was 31.1% compared to 29.5% for the first
quarter of 1997.
CAPITAL MANAGEMENT
Federal regulatory risk-based capital ratio guidelines require percentages
to be applied to various assets including off-balance-sheet assets in relation
to their perceived risk. Tier I capital includes shareholders' equity and Tier
II capital includes certain components of nonpermanent preferred stock and
subordinated debt. The Corporation has no nonpermanent preferred stock or
subordinated debt. Banks and bank holding companies must have a Tier I capital
ratio of at least 4% and a total ratio, including Tier I and Tier II capital, of
at least 8%. As of March 31, 1998 the Corporation had a ratio of 17.0% for Tier
I and a ratio of 18.2% for total capital. At December 31, 1997 and 1996 these
ratios were 17.1% and 18.4%, respectively.
A cash dividend of $.21 per share was paid on 3,051,733 shares of common
stock outstanding on March 27, 1998 to shareholders of record March 13, 1998.
This dividend totaled $641,000.
MARKET RISK MANAGEMENT
The effective management of market risk is essential to achieving the
Corporation's objectives. As a financial institution, interest rate risk and
it's impact on net interest income is the primary market risk exposure. The
Asset/Liability Investment Committee ("ALCO") is primarily responsible for
establishing asset and liability strategies and for monitoring and controlling
liquidity and interest rate risk. ALCO uses computer simulation analysis to
measure the sensitivity of earnings and market value of equity to changes in
interest rates.
The projected changes in net interest income and market value of portfolio
equity ("MVE") to changes in interest rates are calculated and monitored by ALCO
as indicators of interest rate risk. The projected changes in net interest
income and MVE to changes in interest rates at March 31,1998 were not materially
different from December 31, 1997.
The Corporation's net liquid assets to net liabilities ratio was 26.9% at
March 31, 1998 and 27.2% at December 31, 1997. Both of these ratios are
considered to reflect adequate liquidity for the respective periods.
Management constantly monitors and plans the Corporation's liquidity
position for future periods. Liquidity is provided from cash and due from banks,
federal funds sold, interest-bearing deposits in other banks, repayments from
loans, seasonal increases in deposits, lines of credit from two correspondent
banks and two federal agency banks and a planned structured continuous maturity
of investments. Management believes that these factors provide sufficient and
timely liquidity for the foreseeable future.
