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, 2000, the
results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999,
and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 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, 1999.

   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 3,652,452 and 3,698,418
for the three months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively, and 3,665,231
and 3,780,164 for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

Note 3

   During the first quarter of 2000 the board of directors of C&F Financial
Corporation authorized management to buy up to 10% of the Company's outstanding
common stock in the open market at prices that management and the board of
directors determine are prudent.  The Company will consider current market
conditions and the Company's current capital level, in addition to other
factors, when deciding whether to repurchase stock.

   During the first quarter of 2000 the Company repurchased 3,000 shares of its
common stock in the open market at prices between $14.625 and $16.50 per share.
The Company repurchased 58,000 shares of its common stock in the open market
during the second quarter of 2000 at prices between $12.375 and $17.00 per
share.  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

   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

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 decreased 14.4% to $1,398,000 for the three months ended June
30, 2000 compared to $1,634,000 for the same period of 1999. Earnings per share
were $.38 for the three month period, down 13.6% from $.44 per share for the
three months ended June 30, 1999.  Net income for the first six months ended
June 30, 2000 was $2,767,000 compared to $3,780,000 for the same period of 1999.
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 had been on the Bank's books for the past
several years.  Excluding this interest income, net income decreased 18.9% and
earnings per share decreased 16.7% over the six months ended June 30, 1999.

     Profitability as measured by the Company's annualized return on average
assets (ROA) was 1.72% for the three months ended June 30, 2000 compared to
2.15% for the same period of 1999.  For the first six months of 2000 ROA was
1.72% compared to 2.23%, excluding the one-time interest income, for the first
six months of 1999.  Another key indicator of performance, the annualized return
on average equity (ROE) for the three months ended June 30, 2000 was 15.52%
compared to 19.09% for the three months ended June 30, 1999.  For the first six
months of 2000 ROE was 15.48% compared to 19.38%, excluding the one-time
interest income, for the first six months of 1999.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net Interest Income

     Net interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2000 was $3.8
million, an increase of $377,000, or 11%, from $3.4 million for the three months
ended June 30, 1999.  The increase in net interest income is a result of an
increase in the average balance of interest earning assets to $308.5 million for
the three months ended June 30, 2000 compared to $286.7 million for the same
period in 1999 and an increase in the net interest margin on a taxable
equivalent basis to 5.33% for the quarter ended June 30, 2000 from 5.18% for the
same quarter in 1999.

     The increase in average earning assets is a result of the increase in the
average balance of loans held in the Bank's portfolio and an increase in the
average balance of investment securities offset by a decrease in the average
balance of loans held for sale by C&F Mortgage Corporation, a decrease in
interest bearing deposits in other institutions and a decrease in fed funds
sold.  The increase in the Bank's loan portfolio is a result of increased loan
demand resulting from an increased emphasis on commercial and consumer lending.
The increase in the average balance of the securities portfolio and the decrease
in interest bearing balances in other institutions and fed funds sold was a
result of those excess funds being invested in loans and securities during the
second and third quarters of 1999.  During the fourth quarter of 1998 and the

                                       9
<PAGE>

first quarter of 1999 interest rates were at the lowest levels in years.  As a
result, numerous securities were called and the excess funds were deposited in
interest bearing accounts at the Federal Home Loan Bank or sold as fed funds.
When rates began to rise during the second and third quarters of 1999, those
funds that were not used to support growth in the loan portfolio were invested
in securities.

     The decrease in loans held for sale is a result of decreased production at
C&F Mortgage Corporation due to increasing interest rates during the first half
of 2000.  Loans closed at C&F Mortgage Corporation for the three months ended
June 30, 2000 were $84,072,000 compared to $141,618,000 for the comparable
period in 1999.  Loans sold during the second quarter of 2000 were $75,953,000
compared to $128,511,000 for the second quarter of 1999.

     The increase in the company's net interest margin on a taxable equivalent
basis for the three months ended June 30, 2000 compared to the same period in
1999 was a result of an increase in the yield on interest earning assets to
8.83% for the second quarter of 2000 from 8.26% for the same period in 1999
offset by an increase in the cost of funds to 4.21% for the second quarter of
2000 compared to 3.89% for the same period in 1999.  The increase in the yield
on interest earning assets is a result of an increase in the yield on loans held
by the Bank, a decrease in the average balance of lower yielding loans held for
sale at C&F Mortgage corporation and a decrease in the significantly lower
yielding, deposits at the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) offset by a small
decrease in the yield on the securities portfolio.  The increase in the yield on
loans held by the Bank is a result of the rising interest rate environment.  The
decrease in the yield on the securities portfolio is a result of the fact that
the investments that were purchased during 1999 yielded less than those
securities which were called during 1999.  The increase in the cost of funds is
a result of an increase in rates paid on certificates of deposit and an increase
in the rates paid and average balance of higher cost borrowings from the FHLB.

     Net interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2000 was $7.5
million, an increase of $781,000, or 11.7%, from $6.7 million, excluding the
one-time interest income of approximately $560,000 before taxes, for the six
months ended June 30, 1999.  The increase in net interest income is a result of
an increase in the average balance of interest earning assets and an increase in
the net interest margin on a taxable equivalent basis to 5.38% for the six
months ended June 30, 2000 from 5.08% for the first six months of 1999.

     The average balance of interest earning assets increased $15.3 million to
$303.2 million for the first six months of 2000 from $287.9 million for the
first six months of 1999.  The increase in average earning assets is a result of
an increase in the average balance of the Bank's loan portfolio and securities
portfolio offset by a decrease in the average balance of loans held for sale by
C&F Mortgage Corporation and a decrease in the average balance in interest
earning deposits in other banks and fed funds sold.  The increase in the Bank's
loan portfolio is the result of increased loan demand.

     The decrease in loans held for sale is a result of decreased production at
C&F Mortgage Corporation due to increasing interest rates during the first half
of 2000.  Loans closed at C&F Mortgage Corporation for the six months ended June
30, 2000 were $142,493,000 compared to $257,722,000 for the comparable period in
1999.  Loans sold during the first half of 2000 were $146,402,000 compared to
$285,138,000 for the first half of 1999.

     The increase in the company's net interest margin on a taxable equivalent
basis for the six months ended June 30, 2000 compared to the same period in 1999
was a result of an increase in the yield on interest earning assets to 8.78% for
the first half of 2000 from 8.17% for the same period in 1999 offset by an
increase in the cost of funds to 4.08% for the first half of 2000 compared to
3.93% for the same period in 1999.  The increase in the yield on interest
earning assets is a result of an increase in the yield on loans held by the
Bank, a decrease in the average balance of lower yielding loans held for sale at
C&F Mortgage Corporation and a decrease in the significantly lower yielding

                                       10
<PAGE>

deposits at the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) offset by a small decrease in the
yield on the securities portfolio.  The increase in the yield on loans held by
the Bank is a result of the rising interest rate environment.  The decrease in
the yield on the securities portfolio is a result of the fact that the
investments that were purchased during 1999 yielded less than those securities
which were called during 1999.  The increase in the cost of funds is a result of
an increase in rates paid on certificates of deposit and an increase in the
rates paid and average balance of higher cost borrowings from the FHLB.

Non-Interest Income

     Other operating income decreased $639,000, or 21.7%, to $2,306,000 for the
second quarter of 2000 from $2,945,000 for the second quarter of 1999.  Other
operating income decreased $1,750,000, or 28.6%, to $4,373,000 for the first six
months of 2000 from $6,123,000 for the first six months of 1999.  The decrease
in other income is mainly attributed to a decrease in gain on sale of loans
resulting from decrease in volume of loans sold by C&F Mortgage Corporation

Non-Interest Expense

     Other operating expenses increased $57,000, or 1.4%, to $4,149,000 for the
second quarter of 2000 from $4,092,000 for the second quarter of 1999.  Other
operating expenses increased $171,000, or 2.2%, to $8,070,000 for the first six
months of 2000 from $7,899,000 for the first six months of 1999.  This increase
is mainly attributable to an additional branch office at the Bank, during the
first half of 2000, the creation of Citizens and Commerce Bank, a division of
the Bank, in the fourth quarter of 1999 and the overall growth of the Bank
offset by a decrease in salaries expense at C&F Mortgage Corporation.

Year 2000 Issue

     The Y2K issue involved the risk that computer programs and computer systems
would not be able to perform without interruption into the year 2000.  If
computer systems did 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.  All computer programs and systems at the
Company operated without problems when the date changed from December 31, 1999
to January 2000.  While the Company will continue to monitor computer programs
and systems, no problems are expected.

     The Company, to date, has expensed $150,000 related to the Year 2000 issue.
Remaining expenditures are not expected to have a material effect on the
Company's consolidated financial statements.

Income Taxes

     Income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2000 amounted to
$421,000, resulting in an effective tax rate of 23.1% compared to $529,000, or
24.5%, for the three months ended June 30, 1999.  Income tax expense for the six
months ended June 30, 2000 amounted to $817,000, resulting in an effective tax
rate of 22.8% compared to $1,429,000, or 27.4%, for the six months ended June
30, 1999.  The decrease in the effective tax rate for the quarter and for the
six months is a result of the increase in earnings subject to no taxes, such as

Asset Quality-Allowance /Provision For Loan Losses

     The Company had $175,000 in provision expense for the first six months of
2000 and $250,000 for the first six months of 1999.  Loans charged off amounted
to $26,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and $6,000 for the same period
in 1999.  Recoveries amounted to $2,000 and $18,000 for the six months ended
June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively.  The allowance for loan losses was $3.5
million at June 30, 2000 and $3.3 million at December 31, 1999.  The allowance
approximates 1.51% and 1.57% of total loans outstanding at June 30, 2000 and
December 31, 1999.  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 $288,000 at June 30, 2000 compared to
$49,000 at December 31, 1999.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Summary

     At June 30, 2000, the Company had total assets of $343.0 million compared
to $329.2 million at December 31, 1999.

Interest-Bearing Deposits in Other Banks and Fed Funds

     At June 30, 2000, interest-bearing deposits in other banks and fed funds
amounted to $3,660,000 compared to $2,062,000 at December 31, 1999.

Loan Portfolio

     At June 30, 2000, loans held for sale amounted to $20.9 million compared to
$24.9 million held at December 31, 1999.  The decrease is a result of the
continued increase in interest rates for the first half of 2000.

ratio and the total risked based capital ratio was a result of the repurchase of

1999.  Each of these exceeds the required minimum leverage ratio of 4%.  The

the year and the increase in total assets.

New Accounting Pronouncements

   There have been no significant pronouncements since the December 31, 1999 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.
