NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1

       The accompanying  unaudited  consolidated  financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not
include  all of  the  disclosures  and  notes  required  by  generally  accepted
accounting principles. In the opinion of C&F Financial Corporation's management,
all  adjustments,  consisting only of normal  recurring  accruals,  necessary to
present  fairly the  financial  position  as of June 30,  1999,  the  results of
operations  for the three and six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998,  and cash
flows for the six  months  ended  June 30,  1999 and 1998 have  been  made.  The
results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily  indicative of
the results to be expected for the full year.
       These  consolidated  financial  statements  should be read in conjunction
with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the C&F
Financial Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1998.
       The  consolidated  financial  statements  include  the  accounts  of  C&F
Financial  Corporation ("the Company") and its subsidiary,  Citizens and Farmers
Bank ("the Bank") with all significant  intercompany  transactions  and accounts
being eliminated in consolidation.

Note 2

       Net income per share assuming  dilution has been  calculated on the basis
of the  weighted  average  number of shares of  common  stock and  common  stock
equivalents  outstanding for the applicable periods.  Weighted average number of
shares of common stock and common stock  equivalents was 3,698,418 and 3,929,502
for the three months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998,  respectively,  and 3,780,164
and 3,912,197 for the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

Note 3

       During March of 1999 the Company repurchased 235,000 shares of its common
stock from six  shareholders  at prices  between  $19.88 and $20.00 per share in
privately negotiated transactions.

Note 4

       During  April of 1999  Citizens and Farmers  Bank  announced  that it had
signed a contract to  purchase a piece of land in  Williamsburg,  Virginia.  The
site  will  house  the  Bank's  tenth  office,  the  third  in  the  James  City
County/Williamsburg  market.  The Bank plans to open this office by late 1999 or
early 2000.
       Also  during  the  first  quarter  of 1999,  the  Company  announced  the
formation  of a bank in Hanover  County which would be operated as a division of
Citizens  and  Farmers  Bank  with  the  first  branch  being   located  in  the
Mechanicsville  area of Hanover County. As a result of a change in its strategic
vision,  Citizens and Farmers  Bank has decided to currently  forego the Hanover
market and instead concentrate its initial efforts on the market more central to
Richmond  proper.  The Bank  recently  announced  the  formation  of  Citizens &
Commerce Bank ("CCB") which will be operated as a division of the Bank. CCB will
have  an  Area   President  and  a  Regional   Board  of  Directors  with  local
decision-making  responsibilities.  CCB  plans  to open its  first  full-service
branch banking facility in November of 1999 at 8001 W. Broad Street in Richmond,
Virginia.  The  opening of multiple  branch  banking  facilities  in the greater
Richmond area is anticipated over the next several years.

Note 5

       The Company operates in a decentralized fashion in two principal business
activities,  retail banking and mortgage  banking.  Revenues from retail banking
operations  consist  primarily  of  interest  earned  on  loans  and  investment
securities.  Mortgage  banking  operating  revenues  consist  mainly of interest
earned on mortgage loans held for sale, gains on sales of loans in the secondary
mortgage  market,  and loan  origination  fee income.  The  Company  also has an
investment  company and a title company  subsidiary  which derive  revenues from
brokerage  and title  insurance  services,  respectively.  The  results of these
subsidiaries  are not  significant  to the  Company  as a whole  and  have  been
included in "Other." The following  table presents  segment  information for the
periods ended June 30, 1999 and 1998.

The retail banking segment  provides the mortgage banking segment with the funds
needed to  originate  mortgage  loans  through a  warehouse  line of credit  and
charges the  mortgage  banking  segment  interest at the daily FHLB advance rate
plus 50 basis points.  These  transactions are eliminated to reach  consolidated
totals.  Certain corporate overhead costs incurred by the retail banking segment
are not allocated to the mortgage banking and other segments.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
        OF OPERATION

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


Overview

         Net income  increased 1% to $1,634,000  for the three months ended June
30, 1999 compared to $1,617,000 for the same period of 1998.  Earnings per share
were $.44 for the three  month  period,  up 7% from $.41 per share for the three
months ended June 30,  1998.  Net income for the first six months ended June 30,
1999 was $3,780,000 compared to $3,052,000 for the same period of 1998. Included
in earnings  for the first six months of 1999 is  $370,000  in  interest  income
(after taxes) which was collected in February 1999  resulting from the payoff of
a  non-accrual  loan  which has been on the  Bank's  books for the past  several
years. Excluding this interest income, net income increased 12% and earnings per
share increased 15% over the six months ended June 30, 1998.
         Profitability as measured by the Company's annualized return on average
assets  (ROA) was 2.15% for the three  months  ended June 30,  1999  compared to
2.08% for the same  period  of 1998.  For the  first  six  months of 1999,  ROA,
excluding  the one-time  interest  income,  was 2.23%  compared to 2.06% for the
first six months of 1998.  Another key indicator of performance,  the annualized
return on average  equity  (ROE) for the three  months  ended June 30,  1999 was
19.09%  compared to 19.12% for the three  months  ended June 30,  1998.  For the
first six months of 1999, excluding the one-time interest income, ROE was 19.38%
compared to 18.40% for the first six months of 1998.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net Interest Income

         Net  interest  income for the three months ended June 30, 1999 was $3.4
million,  an increase of $66,000,  or 2%, from $3.3 million for the three months
ended June 30,  1998.  For the quarter  ended June 30,  1999,  the net  interest
margin on a taxable  equivalent  basis  increased  to 5.18%  from  4.94% for the
quarter  ended June 30,  1998.  This  increase  was offset by a decrease  in the
balance of average  earning  assets to $286.7 million for the quarter ended June
30, 1999 from $292.4  million for the quarter ended June 30, 1998.  The decrease
in average earning assets is a result of an approximate  $20.8 million  decrease
in the securities'  portfolio which was a result of securities  being called due
to the lower  interest rate  environment  experienced  during the second half of
1998 and the  first  quarter  of  1999.  The  excess  funds  resulting  from the
securities  being  called was used to pay off  borrowings  from the Federal Home
Loan Bank (FHLB).  The Bank borrows from the FHLB to fund loans  originated  and
subsequently sold by C&F Mortgage  Corporation.  For the three months ended June
30, 1999, the yield on interest earning assets decreased to 8.26% from 8.43% for
the three  months  ended  June 30,  1998.  The  decrease  in the yield is mainly
attributed  to a decrease  in the yield on the Bank's loan  portfolio  resulting
from the overall lower  interest rate  environment in the second quarter of 1999
as compared to the second quarter of 1998. The decrease in the yield on interest
earning  assets was offset by a decrease in the Company's cost of funds to 3.89%
for the  second  quarter  of 1999 from  4.35% for the same  period in 1998.  The
decrease  was a result of the overall  lower  interest  rate  environment  and a
decrease in higher cost borrowings from the FHLB.


                                       9
<PAGE>

         Net interest  income for the six months ended June 30, 1999,  excluding
the one-time  intrest income of  approximately  $560,000 before taxes,  was $6.7
million,  an increase of  $231,000,  or 4%, from $6.4 million for the six months
ended June 30, 1998. The net interest margin on a taxable  equivalent  basis for
the six months  ended June 30,  1999 was  relatively  flat at 5.08%  compared to
5.05% for the first six months of 1998. The average balance of interest  earning
assets increased $9.4 million to $287.9 million for the first six months of 1999
from $278.5  million for the first six months of 1998.  The  increase in average
earning  assets is a result of an increase in the average  balance of the Bank's
loan portfolio, interest earning deposits in other banks and fed funds offset by
a decrease in the  average  balance in  securities  portfolio.  The  increase in
interest  earning  deposits  in other  banks and fed funds is a result of excess
funds generated from an increase in deposits and funds generated from securities
being called.  While the Bank's loan portfolio  continues to grow,  excess funds
cannot be deployed into loans fast enough.  The yield on interest earning assets
decreased  to 8.17% for the six months  ended  June 30,  1999 from 8.45% for the
same  period in 1998.  This  decrease  was more than offset by a decrease in the
cost of funds to 3.93% for the first  half of 1999 from 4.26% for the first half
of 1998.  The decrease in the yield on interest  earning assets is the result of
the overall  lower  interest  rate  environment  and the increase in the average
balances held in lower yielding  interest deposits in other banks and fed funds.
The decrease in the cost of funds is a result of the overall lower interest rate
environment  and the decrease in the average  balance of higher cost  borrowings
from the FHLB.

Non-Interest Income

         Other operating income increased $104,000, or 4%, to $2,945,000 for the
second quarter of 1999 from  $2,841,000  for the second  quarter of 1998.  Other
operating income increased  $1,143,000,  or 23%, to $6,123,000 for the first six
months of 1999 from $4,980,000 for the first six months of 1998. The increase in
other  income  is  mainly  attributed  to an  increase  in gain on sale of loans
resulting from increased production at C&F Mortgage Corporation. Loans closed at
C&F  Mortgage  Corporation  for the  quarter  ended  June 30,  1999 and 1998 was
$141,078,000 and  $132,705,000,  respectively.  Loans sold were $128,004,000 and
$124,190,000 for the quarters ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively.  Loans
closed for the six months  ended June 30,  1999 and 1998 were  $257,722,000  and
$236,798,000,  respectively, while loans sold were $285,005,000 and $208,163,000
for the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

Non-Interest Expense

         Other operating expenses increased  $320,000,  or 8%, to $4,092,000 for
the second quarter of 1999 from $3,772,000 for the second quarter of 1998. Other
operating expenses increased  $892,000,  or 13%, to $7,899,000 for the first six
months of 1999 from $7,007,000 for the first six months of 1998. The increase in
other  expenses is mainly  attributed  to  increases  in salaries  and  employee
benefits due to increased production at C&F Mortgage Corporation.

Year 2000 Issue

         The Y2K issue  involves  the risk that  computer  programs and computer
systems may not be able to perform without  interruption  into the year 2000. If
computer  systems do not  correctly  recognize the date change from December 31,
1999 to January 1, 2000, computer applications that rely on the date field could
fail or create erroneous  results.  Such erroneous results could affect interest
payments  or due dates  and  could  cause the  temporary  inability  to  process


                                       10
<PAGE>

transactions and to engage in ordinary business  activities.  The failure of the
Company, its suppliers,  and its borrowers to address the Y2K issue could have a
material  adverse  effect  on the  Company's  financial  condition,  results  of
operations, or liquidity.
         In 1997, the Company  initiated a review and assessment of all hardware
and software to confirm that it will function  properly in the year 2000.  Based
on this  assessment,  we believe the  Company's  mainframe  hardware and banking
software are currently Y2K  compliant.  However,  testing is required to confirm
this. Testing began in the first quarter of 1998 and was substantially  complete
by June 30, 1999. For certain other systems,  the Company has determined that it
will have to replace or modify  certain  pieces of hardware  and/or  software so
that the systems will properly  function in the year 2000.  For systems that the
Company  relies on  third-party  vendors,  these vendors have been contacted and
have indicated that the hardware and/or software will be Y2K compliant.
         The  Company  has  also  initiated  formal   communications   with  all
significant  loan and deposit  customers  to  determine  the extent to which the
Company is  vulnerable to those  third-parties'  failure to remedy their own Y2K
issue.  The Company believes that exposure to customers' not being Y2K compliant
is minimal.
         The Company  plans to complete the majority of the Year 2000 project by
September 30, 1999. To date,  the Company has expensed  $150,000  related to the
assessment  of and efforts in  connection  with the Year 2000  issue.  Remaining
expenditures  are  not  expected  to have a  material  effect  on the  Company's
consolidated financial statements.
         The  Company  continues  to assess  its risk from  other  environmental
factors  over which it has  little  direct  control,  such as  electrical  power
supply, and voice and data transmission. Because of the nature of these external
factors,  the Company is not  actively  engaged in any repair,  replacement,  or
testing  efforts  for  these  services.  Based on its  current  assessments  and
remediation  plans,  which  are  based  in part on  certain  representations  of
third-party  services,  the Company  does not expect that it will  experience  a
significant  disruption  of its  operations as a result of the change in the new
millennium.  Although the Company has no reason to conclude  that a failure will
occur,  the most likely  worst-case  Y2K scenario  would entail a disruption  or
failure  of the  Company's  power  suppliers'  or voice  and  data  transmission
suppliers'  capability  to  provide  power to data  transmission  services  to a
computer  system or a  facility.  If such a failure  were to occur,  the Company
would implement a contingency plan as described below. While it is impossible to
quantify  the impact of such a  scenario,  the most likely  worst-case  scenario
would entail  diminishment of service levels, some customer  inconvenience,  and
additional,  as yet not understood,  costs associated with the implementation of
the contingency plan.
         For the computer  systems and  facilities  that it has determined to be
most  critical,  the  Company  expects to  complete  development,  testing,  and
adoption and testing of business  contingency plans by September 30, 1999. These
plans will  conform to  recently  issued  guidelines  from the FFIEC on business
contingency  planning for Y2K readiness.  Contingency plans will include,  among
other actions,  manual workarounds and  identification of resource  requirements
and alternative  solutions for resuming critical business processes in the event
of a Y2K-related failure. While the Company will have contingency plans in place
to address a temporary  disruption in these services,  there can be no assurance
that any  disruption  or  failure  will be only  temporary,  that the  Company's
contingency  plans  will  function  as  anticipated,  or  that  the  results  of
operations,  financial  condition,  or  liquidity  of the  Company  will  not be
adversely affected in the event of a prolonged disruption or failure.
         Additionally, there can be no assurance that the FFIEC or other federal
or state  regulators  will not issue new  regulatory  requirements  that require
additional work by the Company and, if issued, that new regulatory  requirements
will not increase the cost or delay the completion of the Company's Y2K project.
         The costs of the  project  and the date on which the  Company  plans to
complete the Y2K modifications  are based on management's best estimates,  which
were derived  utilizing  numerous  assumptions  of future  events  including the
continued availability of certain resources, third-party modification plans, and
other factors.  However,  there can be no guarantee that these estimates will be
achieved,  and actual results could differ materially from those plans. Specific


                                       11
<PAGE>

factors that might cause such material  differences include, but are not limited
to,  the  availability  of  personnel  trained  in this  area,  the  ability  of
third-party  vendors to correct  their  software  and  hardware,  the ability of
significant   customers  to  remedy   their  Year  2000   issues,   and  similar
uncertainties.

Income Taxes

         Income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 1999 amounted to
$529,000,  resulting in an effective tax rate of 24.5% compared to $596,000,  or
26.9%, for the three months ended June 30, 1998.  Income tax expense for the six
months ended June 30, 1999 amounted to $1,429,000, resulting in an effective tax
rate of 27.4%  compared to $1,115,000,  or 26.7%,  for the six months ended June
30,  1998.  The increase in the  effective  tax rate for the quarter and for the
year is a result of the  increase in  earnings  subject to a 34% tax rate versus
earnings  subject  to no  taxes  such as  certain  loans  to  municipalities  or
investment obligations of state and political subdivisions.


Asset Quality-Allowance /Provision For Loan Losses

         The Company had $250,000 in provision  expense for the first six months
of 1999 and for the first six months of 1998.  Loans  charged  off  amounted  to
$6,000  and  $46,000  for  the  six  months   ended  June  30,  1999  and  1998,
respectively.  Recoveries  amounted  to $18,000  and  $25,000 for the six months
ended June 30, 1999 and 1998,  respectively.  The  allowance for loan losses was
$3.0  million  at June 30,  1999 and $2.8  million at  December  31,  1998.  The
allowance  approximates  1.6% of total  loans  outstanding  at June 30, 1999 and
December 31, 1998.  Management  feels that the reserve is adequate to absorb any
losses on existing loans which may become uncollectible.

Nonperforming Assets

         Total non-performing assets, which consist of the Company's non-accrual
loans and other real estate  owned was  $627,000  at June 30,  1999  compared to
$463,000 at December 31, 1998.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Summary

         At June 30,  1999,  the  Company  had total  assets  of $307.7  million
compared to $320.9 million at December 31, 1998.

Interest-Bearing Deposits in Other Banks and Fed Funds

         At June 30,  1999,  interest-bearing  deposits  in other  banks and fed
funds amounted to $432,000 compared to $333,000 at December 31, 1998.

Loan Portfolio

         At June  30,  1999,  loans  held  for sale  amounted  to $39.6  million
compared to $67.0 million held at December 31, 1998. The decrease in the balance
from  December  31,  1998 is a result of a decrease  in loan  originations  from


                                       12
<PAGE>

$154,000,000  for the  fourth  quarter  of 1998 to  $141,000,000  for the second
quarter of 1999. The decrease in originations  for the second quarter of 1999 is
a result of an increase in the interest  rates for the second quarter of 1999 as
compared to the fourth quarter of 1998.
         The following  table sets forth the  composition of the Company's loans
in dollar  amounts and as a percentage of the  Company's  total gross loans held

</TABLE>


Investment Securities

         At June 30,  1999,  total  investment  securities  were  $64.7  million
compared to $60.7 for December 31, 1998.  Securities of U.S. Government agencies
and corporations represent 21.2% of the total securities portfolio,  obligations
of state and political  subdivisions were 69.4%,  U.S. Treasury  securities were
1.6%, and preferred stocks were 7.8% at June 30, 1999.

Deposits

         Deposits  totaled $256.7 million at June 30, 1999 compared to $251.7 at
December 31, 1998.  Non-interest  bearing deposits totaled $40.7 million at June
30, 1999 compared to $40.9 million at December 31, 1998.

Liquidity

         At June 30, 1999, cash, securities classified as available for sale and
interest-bearing deposits were 11.6% of total earning assets. Asset liquidity is
also provided by managing the investment maturities.
         Additional  sources of liquidity  available to the Company  include its
subsidiary  bank's  capacity to borrow  additional  funds through an established
federal funds line with a regional correspondent bank and through an established
line with the Federal Home Loan Bank.


Capital Resources

      The   Company's   capital   position   continues   to  exceed   regulatory
requirements.  The  Company's  Tier I capital  ratio was 13.5% at June 30,  1999


                                       13
<PAGE>

compared to 12.5% at December 31, 1998. The total  risk-based  capital ratio was
14.7% at June 30, 1999 compared to 13.4% at December 31, 1998.  These ratios are
in excess of the mandated minimum requirements.
      Shareholders' equity was $34.5 million at the end of the second quarter of
1999 compared to $36.6 million at December 31, 1998. The leverage ratio consists
of Tier I capital  divided by average  assets.  At June 30, 1999,  the Company's
leverage ratio was 10.8%  compared to 11.5% at December 31, 1997.  Each of these
exceeds the required minimum leverage ratio of 3%.

New Accounting Pronouncements

      There have been no significant  pronouncements since the December 31, 1998
10K was filed.

Effects of Inflation

      The effect of  changing  prices on  financial  institutions  is  typically
different  from other  industries as the Company's  assets and  liabilities  are
monetary in nature. Interest rates are significantly impacted by inflation,  but
neither the timing nor the  magnitude  of the changes  are  directly  related to
price level indices.  Impacts of inflation on interest rates, loan demands,  and
deposits are reflected in the consolidated financial statements.
