Item 1.  Description of Business.

Business of the Company

        SWVA  Bancshares,   Inc.  (the  "Company")  is  a  Virginia  corporation
organized in June of 1994 at the direction of Southwest  Virginia  Savings Bank,
FSB (the "Bank") to acquire all of the capital stock that the Bank issued in its
conversion  from the mutual to stock form of ownership  (the  "Conversion").  On
October 7, 1994,  the Bank  completed the  Conversion  and became a wholly owned
subsidiary of the Company. In connection with the Conversion, the Company issued
570,590  shares of its  Common  Stock,  par value  $.10 per share  (the  "Common
Stock").  The Company is a unitary savings and loan holding company which, under
existing laws,  generally is not restricted in the types of business  activities
in which it may engage provided that the Bank retains a specified  amount of its
assets in housing-related  investments.  At June 30, 1996, the Company had total
assets of $67.1 million and stockholders' equity of $8.7 million.

        On August 14, 1995, the Company received the necessary approval from the
Office of Thrift  Supervision  ("OTS") to repurchase up to 5% (or 28,529 shares)
of the Company's Common Stock prior to October 7, 1995. The Company  repurchased
27,400 shares of its Common Stock in the open market,  at an aggregate  purchase
price  of   approximately   $466,000.   The   amount   repurchased   represented
approximately  4.8% of the  Company's  total  shares  outstanding  prior  to the
repurchase.

        On June 14, 1996, the Company  announced that its Board of Directors had
authorized  the  Company  to  repurchase  up to 5%  (or  27,160  shares)  of its
outstanding  common  stock in the open market by October 7, 1996,  pursuant to a
stock repurchase program adopted by the Board of Directors. For further details,
reference is made to the Form 8-K dated June 14, 1996,  which was filed with the
Securities and Exchange  Commission on June 14, 1996, and is incorporated herein
by this reference.

Business of the Bank

        General.  The Bank is primarily engaged in attracting  deposits from the
general  public and using those funds to originate  real estate loans on one- to
four-family residences and, to a lesser extent,  construction,  multi-family and
non-residential  real estate  loans,  commercial  loans and consumer  loans.  In
addition,   the  Bank  invests  in  investment  securities  and  mortgage-backed
securities.  The Bank offers its  customers  both ARMs and  fixed-rate  mortgage
loans.  ARMs are  originated  for retention in the Bank's  portfolio.  In recent
years, the Bank sold fixed rate mortgage loans upon origination in the secondary
market. Depending on the level of prevailing interest rates, the Bank may retain
fixed rate mortgage loans for retention in its portfolio. Management of the Bank
determines  whether to retain fixed rate mortgage  loans in its portfolio on the
basis of whether  the  interest  rate  received  on the loan would  possibly  be
beneficial to the  profitability  of the Bank's loan  portfolio over the average
life of the loan.  All consumer loans are retained in the Bank's portfolio.

        The principal  sources of funds for the Bank's  lending  activities  are
deposits and the  amortization,  repayment and maturity of loans and  investment
and  mortgage-backed  securities.  The  Bank's  primary  sources  of income  are
interest and fees on loans and  investment  and  mortgage-backed  securities and
customer  service fees and  commissions.  The Bank's primary expense is interest
paid on deposits.

        Market Area. The Bank's primary market area consists of Roanoke County,
the City of Salem, the City of Roanoke, andportions of Botetourt, Bedford, and 
Franklin Counties.  The Bank regards this area as its "basic" lending area, but
loans are also made in other adjoining counties.


<PAGE>




        The Bank's main  office is located at 302 Second  Street,  S.W.,  in the
City of Roanoke,  Virginia.  The Bank has one other branch office located in the
City of  Roanoke.  The Bank has  another  branch  and a loan  production  office
located  in  Roanoke  County,  as well as branch  offices  in Vinton  and Salem,
Virginia.

        The Roanoke Valley is equidistant  from New York and Atlanta,  230 miles
south of  Washington,  D.C.  and 250 miles  west of the Port of  Hampton  Roads,
Virginia.  The  population  in the Roanoke  Valley area has remained  relatively
stable over the past thirty  years and was  269,100  according  to the 1990 U.S.
Census.  The Roanoke  Valley  area enjoys a  diversified  economy  comprised  of
services, retail,  manufacturing,  government offices, finance,  insurance, real
estate, wholesale trade,  transportation,  public utilities,  construction,  and
agriculture.

        The outlying region of the Bank's market area is rural in nature and may
represent  limited  opportunities  for lending and investment growth which could
adversely  affect the Bank's  ability to achieve asset  growth.  The Bank is the
only savings bank  headquartered  in the Roanoke Valley area.  This area is also
served by branch offices of regional commercial banks.

Lending Activities

        General.  The principal  lending activity of the Bank is the origination
of adjustable-rate or short-term loans secured by one- to four-family residences
for portfolio  purposes and fixed-rate loans which generally are underwritten to
conform  to  standards  required  for the sale of such  loans  in the  secondary
mortgage  market.  The Bank also  originates some  nonconforming  first mortgage
loans to serve  community  needs which are  retained  in the Banks's  portfolio.
Adjustable-rate  loans comprised  72.38% of total loans  outstanding on June 30,
1996. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 1996 adjustable-rate  loans represented
17.06%  of  total  mortgage  loan   originations.   The  Bank  also   originates
nonresidential  and multi-family real estate loans. To a much lesser extent, the
Bank provides  financing for construction  loans,  commercial loans, home equity
loans, and consumer loans.  Mortgage loans over $350,000 require approval of the
Board of Directors. The Bank uses OTS guidelines as to loan limits. See "- Loans
to One  Borrower."  The Bank will  continue to strive to increase  its  consumer
lending on a conservative basis. Consumer loans offer income enhancement through
higher  yields and shorter  terms and tend to reprice on a more  frequent  basis
than long-term mortgage loans. The Bank has made a limited amount of these types
of loans on what management believes is a conservatively  underwritten basis and
intends to continue  these types of lending to meet the area's  credit  needs as
well as to  provide  the Bank  with  short-  to  intermediate-term  investments.
Consumer loans over $200,000 require  approval of the Board of Directors.  As of
June 30, 1996, the Bank's total  portfolio of loans (the "loan  portfolio")  was
$48.9  million,  of which  $37.2  million,  or  76.00%,  was  secured by one- to
four-family  residential real estate loans, $3.1 million or 6.36% was made up of
multi-family   residential   loans,   $2.8  million  or  5.64%  was  secured  by
non-residential  real  estate  and land  loans,  and $3.7  million or 7.49% were
secured by  construction  loans.  At June 30, 1996, the Bank had $2.2 million in
consumer and other loans.

        One- to  Four-Family  Residential  Loans.  The  Bank's  primary  lending
activity  consists of the  origination of one- to  four-family,  owner-occupied,
residential  mortgage  loans secured by property  located in the Bank's  primary
market area. At June 30, 1996,  the Bank had $37.2  million,  or 76.00%,  of its
loan portfolio  invested in these loans.  The Bank also offers home equity lines
of  credit  secured  by one- to  four-family  residential  properties  which are
discussed  below under "-- Consumer and Other Loans."  Management  believes that
this policy of focusing on one- to  four-family  lending has been  effective  in
contributing  to net interest  income while reducing credit risk by keeping loan
delinquencies and losses to a minimum.

                                        4

        The Bank offers  ARMs that adjust  every year and have terms of up to 30
years.  Generally,  the interest rate  adjustments  on ARMs are based on the one
year  Treasury  bill index.  These ARMs have interest rate floors of 6%, so that
the interest rate on such loans cannot adjust below such floors. However, during
the fiscal year ended June 30, 1996, the Bank  originated  some ARMs at interest
rates up to .50% below such floors, although the initial rates are not below the
Bank's costs of funds and do not lead to negative amortization of the balance on
such loans.  The ARMs  originated for the Bank's  portfolio  carry interest rate
ceilings  of 5.00%  above  the  initial  interest  rate on the  loans.  The Bank
considers the market factors and  competitive  rates on loans as well as its own
cost of funds when determining the rates on the loans that it offers.

        The  retention of ARMs in the Bank's  portfolio  greatly helps to reduce
the  Bank's  exposure  to  changes  in  interest  rates.   However,   there  are
unquantifiable credit risks which could result from potential increased payments
to the borrower as a result of the repricing of ARMs. It is possible that during
periods  of  rapidly  rising  interest  rates,  the risk of  default on ARMs may
increase  due to  the  upward  adjustment  of  interest  cost  to the  borrower.
Currently, the ARMs originated by the Bank provide for initial rates of interest
less than the fully  indexed  rates that would  prevail  were the index used for
repricing  applied  initially.  These  loans are  subject to  increased  risk of
delinquency  or  default  when  the  higher,   fully-indexed  rate  of  interest
subsequently comes into effect and replaces the lower initial rate.

        Generally,  during periods of rising interest rates, the risk of default
on ARMs is  considered  to be greater  than the risk of default on a  fixed-rate
loan due to the upward  adjustment of interest  costs to the  borrower.  To help
reduce  such risk,  the Bank  qualifies  loans  above 80%  loan-to-value  at the
maximum second year rate, as opposed to the original  interest rate. ARMs may be
made at up to 95% of the loan to value ratio.  The Bank does not originate  ARMs
with negative amortization.

        The Bank also offers  conventional  fixed-rate mortgage loans with terms
from 15 to 30 years.  A majority of the 15 to 30 year  fixed-rate  mortgages are
sold in the secondary mortgage market.

        Regulations  limit the amount  which a savings  association  may lend in
relationship  to the  appraised  value of the real estate  securing the loan, as
determined  by an appraisal at the time of loan  origination.  Such  regulations
permit a maximum  loan-to-value  ratio of 100% for residential  property and 90%
for all other real estate loans. The Bank's lending policies, however, generally
limit  the  maximum  loan-to-value  ratio to 80% of the  appraised  value of the
property, based on an independent appraisal. When the Bank makes a mortgage loan
in excess of 80% of the  appraised  value or purchase  price,  private  mortgage
insurance  is  required  for at least the amount of the loan in excess of 80% of
the appraised value.

        The   loan-to-value   ratio,   maturity  and  other  provisions  of  the
residential  real  estate  loans made by the Bank  reflect  the policy of making
loans generally below the maximum limits permitted under applicable regulations.
The Bank requires an  independent  appraisal,  title  insurance or an attorney's
opinion, flood hazard insurance (if applicable), and fire and casualty insurance
on all properties securing real estate loans made by the Bank. The Bank reserves
the right to approve the selection of which title insurance  companies' policies
are acceptable to insure the real estate title in the loan transactions.

        While one- to  four-family  residential  real estate  loans are normally
originated with 15-30 year terms,  such loans typically  remain  outstanding for
substantially  shorter  periods.  This is because  borrowers  often prepay their
loans in full upon sale of the property  pledged as security or upon refinancing
the original loan. In addition,  substantially  all of the mortgage loans in the
Bank's loan portfolio  contain  due-on-sale  clauses providing that the Bank may
declare the unpaid amount due and payable upon the sale of the property securing
the loan. The Bank enforces these due-on-sale clauses to the extent permitted by
law.  Thus,  average loan  maturity is a function of, among other  factors,  the
level

                                        5

of purchase and sale  activity in the real estate  market,  prevailing  interest
rates and the interest rates payable on outstanding loans.

        Multi-Family and Non-residential Real Estate Loans. The Bank in the past
has originated non-residential real estate and multi-family loans; however, this
type of lending  represents a small  portion of the Bank's  lending  activities.
There  were no  non-residential  real  estate  loans and no  multi-family  loans
originated  during  the  fiscal  year  ended  June 30,  1996.  At June 30,  1996
outstanding  non-residential real estate and multi-family loans amounted to $1.7
million and $3.1 million, respectively.

        Non-residential  real estate loans consist of permanent loans secured by
small office buildings,  churches,  shopping centers, and other  non-residential
buildings  secured by properties.  Non-residential  real estate and multi-family
secured  loans are  generally  originated  in amounts up to 75% of the appraised
value of the property.  Such  appraised  value is  determined by an  independent
appraiser which has been previously approved by the Bank. Multi-family loans are
generally secured by apartment buildings of 36 or fewer units.

        Non-residential   real  estate  and  multi-family  loans  are  generally
originated  on  an  adjustable-rate  basis  with  the  interest  rate  adjusting
annually.  Some of these  loans have an  interest  rate that is fixed for two to
three  years and then  adjusts  annually.  The Bank also  makes  some fixed rate
non-residential real estate and multi-family mortgages.

        Loans secured by multi-family and non-residential  real estate generally
involve a greater  degree of risk than one- to  four-family  mortgage  loans and
carry larger loan balances.  This  increased  credit risk is a result of several
factors,  including the  concentration of principal in a limited number of loans
and borrowers,  the effects of general  economic  conditions on income producing
properties and the increased difficulty of evaluating and monitoring these types
of loans.  Furthermore,  the repayment of loans secured by  non-residential  and
multi-family real estate is typically dependent upon the successful operation or
management of the related real estate project. If the cash flow from the project
is reduced,  the borrower's ability to repay the loan may be impaired.  The Bank
seeks to minimize these risks in a variety of ways,  including limiting the size
of such loans and strictly scrutinizing the financial condition of the borrower,
the quality of the collateral  and the  management of the property  securing the
loan.  The Bank  also  obtains  personal  guarantees.  Substantially  all of the
properties  securing the Bank's  non-residential  and  multi-family  real estate
loans are inspected by the Bank's lending personnel before the loan is made. The
Bank also obtains  appraisals  on each property in  accordance  with  applicable
regulations.  At June 30, 1996, the largest non-residential or multi-family real
estate loan had a balance of $424,000  and was secured by an  apartment  complex
and was performing. See "-- Loans to One Borrower."

        Construction Lending. The Bank engages in construction lending involving
loans to qualified borrowers for construction of one- to four-family residential
properties and, on a limited basis,  involving  non-residential and multi-family
properties. These properties are located in the Bank's market area.

        Construction  loans are made to builders on a  speculative  basis and to
owners  for  construction  of their  primary  residence.  Loans for  speculative
housing construction are made to area builders after a background check has been
made.  The  Bank  usually  will  have  no  more  than  four  construction  loans
outstanding  at any time to any single  builder.  Construction  loans on one- to
four-family properties are generally limited to a maximum loan-to-value ratio of
80%  and  have  a  maximum  maturity  of  12  months.   Construction   loans  on
non-residential  and multi-family  properties are generally limited to a maximum
loan-to-value  ratio of 75% and  have a  maximum  maturity  of 18  months.  Loan
proceeds are disbursed in increments as construction progresses and only after a
physical  inspection  of the  project is made by a  representative  of the Bank.
Accrued interest on loan disbursements is paid monthly. At June 30, 1996,

                                        6


<PAGE>



the Bank had $2.6 million in  construction  loans  outstanding  to builders on a
speculative  basis,  with $1.1 million in loans in process (funds being held for
construction progress) outstanding and attributed to these loans.

        Construction  loans to owners have either fixed or adjustable  rates and
are  underwritten  in  accordance  with the same terms and  requirements  as the
Bank's permanent  mortgages on existing  properties except that the builder must
qualify as an approved  contractor by the Bank, and the loans generally  provide
for disbursement of loan proceeds in stages during the construction  period.  An
approved  contractor is one who has been approved by a title  insurance  company
that will insure the Bank against  mechanics'  liens or whose credit,  financial
statements and experience have been approved by the Bank. Borrowers are required
to  pay  accrued  interest  on  the  outstanding   balance  monthly  during  the
construction  phase.  At June 30, 1996,  there was $1.3 million  outstanding  in
construction  loans to owners  with  $756,000  outstanding  in loans in  process
allocated  to  these  projects.   There  were  $544,000  in  construction  loans
originated on nonresidential and multi-family  properties during the fiscal year
ended June 30, 1996. The Bank originated  $3.8 million in construction  loans on
one- to four-family properties during the fiscal year ended June 30, 1996.

        Construction  financing  is  generally  considered  to  involve a higher
degree of risk of loss than  long-term  financing  on  improved,  occupied  real
estate.  Risk of loss on a  construction  loan is  dependent  largely  upon  the
accuracy  of the initial  estimate  of the  property's  value at  completion  of
construction  or  development  and the estimated  cost  (including  interest) of
construction. During the construction phase, a number of factors could result in
delays and cost  overruns.  If the  estimate of  construction  cost proves to be
inaccurate,  it may be necessary for the Bank to advance funds beyond the amount
originally  committed to permit completion of the construction.  If the estimate
of value proves to be inaccurate, the Bank may be confronted, at or prior to the
maturity of the loan,  with  collateral  having a value which is insufficient to
assure full repayment. As a result of the foregoing,  construction lending often
involves the  disbursement  of substantial  funds with repayment  dependent,  in
part,  on the success of the  project.  If the Bank is forced to  foreclose on a
property prior to or at completion  due to a default,  there can be no assurance
that the Bank will be able to recover all of the unpaid  balance of, and accrued
interest on, the loan as well as related foreclosure and holding costs. The Bank
has sought to minimize this risk by limiting  construction  lending to qualified
borrowers in the Bank's  market area and by limiting the number of  construction
loans outstanding at any time.

        Consumer  and  Other  Loans.  The  Bank  views  consumer  lending  as an
important  component of its lending  operations because consumer loans generally
have  shorter  terms and higher  yields,  thus  reducing  exposure to changes in
interest  rates.  In addition,  the Bank believes that offering  consumer  loans
helps to expand and create stronger ties to its customer base. Consequently, the
Bank has  increased  its  consumer  lending by  marketing  home equity  loans to
existing and potential customers. Regulations permit federally-chartered savings
associations  to make  secured  and  unsecured  consumer  loans up to 35% of the
Bank's assets.  In addition,  the Bank has lending authority above the 35% limit
for certain consumer loans,  such as home improvement loans and loans secured by
savings accounts.

        Consumer  loans  consist  of  personal   secured  and  unsecured  loans,
automobile,  boat and recreational  vehicle loans,  savings account loans,  home
improvement  and home equity loans.  As of June 30, 1996,  these  consumer loans
totaled $2.1 million, or 4.24%, of the Bank's total loan portfolio.

The Bank makes fixed and adjustable rate consumer loans.

        The Bank also offers a home equity line of credit,  which is a revolving
line of credit secured by a first or second mortgage, and which is accessible to
the customer by either writing a check or

                                        7


<PAGE>



requesting an advance at a branch office of the Bank.  The rate on such loans is
adjustable monthly,  based on the Wall Street Journal prime rate plus 1.5%, with
a floor of 6% and a ceiling of 18%.

        The  underwriting  standards  employed  by the Bank for  consumer  loans
include a determination of the applicant's payment history on other debts and an
assessment of ability to meet existing  obligations and payments on the proposed
loan. In addition,  the stability of the applicant's monthly income from primary
employment is considered during the underwriting  process.  Creditworthiness  of
the applicant is of primary  consideration;  however,  the underwriting  process
also includes a comparison of the value of the security,  if any, in relation to
the proposed loan amount.

        The  Bank  is  allowed  to  make   secured  and   unsecured   loans  for
nonresidential,  corporate,  business and agricultural  purposes,  including the
issuance  of  letters  of credit  secured by real  estate,  business  equipment,
inventories,  accounts  receivable and cash equivalents in amounts not exceeding
10% of the Bank's assets.  Non-real  estate  commercial  lending by the Bank has
been limited.  These loans have generally been made to building  contractors and
small  business  operations.  Letters of credit  have  mostly  been  provided to
contractors  for use in land  development.  The letters of credit have generally
been secured by real estate and contain personal guarantees of the principals of
the borrowing entity.

        The aggregate  amount of commercial  business loans  outstanding may not
exceed 10% of the Bank's assets. In addition, another 10% of total assets may be
invested in commercial  equipment leasing. As of June 30, 1996, $133,000 or .27%
of the Bank's loan portfolio was categorized as commercial business loans.

        Consumer  and  commercial  loans  entail  greater  credit  risk  than do
residential mortgage loans,  particularly in the case of consumer and commercial
loans which are unsecured or secured by assets that depreciate rapidly, which in
the  case of  consumer  loans  include  automobiles,  mobile  homes,  boats  and
recreational  vehicles  and in the case of  commercial  loans  include  business
equipment,  inventories  and  accounts  receivable.  In such cases,  repossessed
collateral  for a  defaulted  consumer  or  commercial  loan may not  provide an
adequate  source  of  repayment  for the  outstanding  loan  and  the  remaining
deficiency often does not warrant further substantial collection efforts against
the borrower.  In  particular,  amounts  realizable  on the sale of  repossessed
automobiles or business  equipment may be  significantly  reduced based upon the
condition  of the  collateral  and the lack of demand  for used  automobiles  or
business equipment.

        Loan  Solicitation,  Approval  and  Processing.  The  Bank's  sources of
mortgage loan  applications are referrals from existing or past customers,  real
estate brokers, call-in and walk-in customers,  builders and also are the result
of advertising.

        Any  mortgage  or  construction  loan up to  $250,000  is  reviewed  and
approved by the Management  Loan Committee.  Any mortgage or  construction  loan
over $250,000 up to $350,000 is reviewed and approved by the Board of Directors'
Loan Committee.  The Board of Directors' Loan Committee  reviews loans in excess
of $350,000 to be submitted to the Board of Directors for its approval.

        Consumer  and  commercial  loans may be  approved  by two  officers  for
unsecured loans up to $25,000 and for secured loans up to $100,000.  The maximum
consumer  or  commercial  loan to be  approved  by the Board of  Directors  Loan
Committee is $200,000 with any loans  exceeding that amount  requiring  Board of
Directors approval.

        The Bank uses  independent  fee  appraisers  on all real estate  related
transactions.  Each fee appraiser  used must be state  licensed or certified and
approved by the Bank's Board of Directors. It is

                                        8

        Loan  Purchases  and  Sales.  Prior to 1990 the  Bank's  loan sales were
insignificant.  Any loans  sold  were  individual  loans  with  other  financial
institutions.  The Bank began  originating loans to sell in the secondary market
in 1990. In March 1992, the Bank opened a loan  production  office separate from
its  banking  facilities  to  concentrate  more  activity  for loan sales in the
secondary  market.  The Bank originates  mostly fixed-rate loans for sale in the
secondary  market.  These  loans  include  15  to  30  year,  80%  loan-to-value
conventional  loans (the portion of the loans above 80% are insured with private
mortgage  insurance),  Federal  Housing  Administration  ("FHA")  and  Veteran's
Administration  ("VA") loans.  The Bank uses standard Federal Home Loan Mortgage
Corporation("FHLMC")/Federal     National    Mortgage    Association    ("FNMA")
documentation for its conventional  loans. During the fiscal year ended June 30,
1996, the Bank sold a total of $19.5 million of mortgage loans.

        Currently,  the Bank sells loans to other  lenders who sell  directly to
FHLMC, FNMA and Government  National  Mortgage  Association  ("GNMA").  The Bank
sells the majority of its loans with  servicing  released.  These loans are sold
without recourse.

        During the fiscal year ended June 30,  1996,  the Bank did not  purchase
any loans from other financial institutions.

        Loan Commitments.  The Bank issues loan commitments for 60 days or less.
No points are normally  charged for these  commitments.  The Bank will  consider
extended  commitment periods and may charge fees based on the length and type of
commitment.  At June 30,  1996,  the Bank had $3.9  million  of  commitments  to
finance real estate  acquisitions  and  construction  and had contracted to sell
$2.5 million of such loans. The Bank also had a commitment to purchase  mortgage
pool securities of $1.0 million.

        Loan  Processing and Servicing  Fees. In addition to interest  earned on
loans,  the Bank recognizes fees and service charges which consist  primarily of
fees  charged  for loan  originations  and loans  serviced  for  others and late
charges.  The Bank recognized loan servicing fees of $50,000 for the fiscal year
ended June 30,  1996.  As of June 30,  1996,  the Bank had  $23,000 of loan fees
deferred  under GAAP.  As of June 30,  1996,  loans  serviced  for the  Virginia
Housing Development  Authority ("VHDA") totalled $729,000 and loans serviced for
FHLMC totalled $459,000.

        Loans to One  Borrower.  Savings  associations  are  subject to the same
limits as those  applicable to national banks,  which under current  regulations
limit loans-to-one  borrower in an amount equal to 15% of unimpaired capital and
retained income on an unsecured  basis and an additional  amount equal to 10% of
unimpaired  capital  and  retained  income  if the loan is  secured  by  readily
marketable collateral  (generally,  financial  instruments,  not real estate) or
$500,000, whichever is higher. The Bank's maximum loan-to-one borrower limit was
approximately $1.1 million as of June 30, 1996.

        The Bank's  largest  group of loans to one borrower at June 30, 1996 was
$479,000 which consisted of loans secured by apartment  buildings and a consumer
loan  partially  secured by savings.  The second  largest  group of loans to one
borrower was $478,000  which  consisted of loans secured by single family homes,
both  completed and under  construction,  and developed  building lots. The next
largest group of loans to one borrower were  $434,000  which  consisted of loans
secured by single family homes, a mobile home park and developed  building lots,
plus an unsecured consumer loan.

        Loan  Delinquencies.  Loans past due more than 90 days are  individually
examined  for  potential  losses and the ultimate  collectibility  of funds due.
Loans are deemed to have no loss exposure if the value of the property  securing
the loan exceeds the  receivable  balance on the loan or collection is probable.
Such loans are kept on an accruing status pending monthly review. Loans that are
deemed  to  contain  a  potential  loss  exposure  to the  Bank  are  placed  on
non-accrual  status  by the Bank  and all  interest  past  due on such  loans is
reserved.  Specific reserves are established to recognize losses on non-accruing
loans on a case-by-case basis.

        Real estate  acquired by the Bank as a result of  foreclosure or by deed
in lieu of foreclosure  is classified as foreclosed  real estate until such time
as it is sold. When  foreclosed  real estate is acquired,  it is recorded at the
lower of fair value or cost. Valuations are periodically performed by management
and  subsequent  charges  to income  are taken  when it is  determined  that the
carrying value of the property  exceeds the fair value less  estimated  costs to
sell.

     Non-Performing Assets. The following table sets forth information regarding
loans  which are 90 days or more  delinquent  but on which the Bank is  accruing
interest  at the  dates  indicated.  At June  30,  1996,  the  Bank had no loans
accounted  for on a  non-accrual  basis and no  restructured  loans  within  the
meaning of SFAS 15.

        Classified Assets. The Office of Thrift Supervision  ("OTS") regulations
provide for a classification  system for problem assets of insured  institutions
which  covers all problem  assets.  Under this  classification  system,  problem
assets of insured  institutions are classified as "substandard,"  "doubtful," or
"loss." An asset is considered  "substandard" if it is inadequately protected by
the  current net worth and paying  capacity of the obligor or of the  collateral
pledged,  if  any.  "Substandard"  assets  include  those  characterized  by the
"distinct  possibility" that the insured institution will sustain "some loss" if
the deficiencies are not corrected.  Assets classified as "doubtful" have all of
the  weaknesses  inherent  in those  classified  "substandard,"  with the  added
characteristic  that the weaknesses  present make  "collection or liquidation in
full," on the basis of currently existing facts,  conditions and values, "highly
questionable and improbable."  Assets  classified as "loss" are those considered
"uncollectible"  and of such  little  value  that  their  continuance  as assets
without the  establishment  of a specific loss reserve is not warranted.  Assets
designated  "special  mention" by management  are assets  included on the Bank's
internal  watchlist  because of potential  weakness  but which do not  currently
warrant classification in one of the aforementioned categories.

        When  an  insured  institution   classifies  problem  assets  as  either
substandard or doubtful,  it may establish general  allowances for credit losses
in an amount deemed prudent by  management.  General  allowances  represent loss
allowances which have been established to recognize the inherent risk associated
with lending activities,  but which, unlike specific  allowances,  have not been
allocated to particular problem assets. When an insured  institution  classifies
problem  assets as  "loss,"  it is  required  either  to  establish  a  specific
provision for losses equal to 100% of that portion of the asset so classified or
to  charge  off  such  amount.   An   institution's   determination  as  to  the
classification  of its  assets  and the amount of its  valuation  allowances  is
subject  to  review  by the  OTS,  which  may  recommend  the  establishment  of
additional  general or  specific  loss  allowances.  A portion  of general  loss
allowances  established to cover possible losses related to assets classified as
substandard  or  doubtful  may  be  included  in  determining  an  institution's
regulatory  capital,  while  specific  valuation  allowances  for credit  losses
generally do not qualify as regulatory  capital. At June 30, 1996 the Bank had a
general credit loss allowance of $194,000.


                                       11
<PAGE>

        On June 30, 1996, the Bank had approximately  $871,000 of problem loans,
all of  which  were  classified  as  substandard.  One  loan is on an  apartment
building  which had a balance of $223,000 on June 30,  1996.  The loan  payments
were current on this loan as of June 30, 1996 and will be considered for removal
from  the  classification  list if it  remains  current.  Three  loans  totaling
$277,000 are on land, developed sub-division lots and single family houses under
construction.  The developer has turned the project over to his  accountant  who
has hired a new contractor to complete the houses. They intend to sell a portion
of the properties to liquidate the loans. All other problem loans are secured by
single family  homes.  Management  feels that the loans have adequate  equity or
they are covered by PMI insurance.

        The following table provides  further  information  regarding the Bank's
classified assets and allowances for credit losses at June 30, 1996.

        Foreclosed Real Estate.  Real estate acquired by the Bank as a result of
foreclosure,  judgment  or by  deed  in lieu of  foreclosure  is  classified  as
foreclosed  real  estate  until it is sold.  When  property  is  acquired  it is
recorded  at the lower of the cost or fair  value.  The Bank held no  foreclosed
real estate at June 30, 1996.

        Allowances for Credit Losses. The Bank provides valuation allowances for
estimated losses from uncollectible loans.  Management's  periodic evaluation of
the adequacy of the  allowance  for credit  losses is based on loss  experience,
known and inherent risk in the  portfolio,  prevailing  market  conditions,  and
management's  judgment as to collectibility.  The allowance for credit losses is
increased  by  charges  to  earnings  and  decreased  by  charge-offs   (net  of
recoveries).

Investment and Mortgage-backed Securities Activities

        Investment Securities. The Bank is required under federal regulations to
maintain a minimum  amount of liquid  assets  which may be invested in specified
short-term  securities  and certain  other  investments.  The Bank has generally
maintained  a liquidity  portfolio  well in excess of  regulatory  requirements.
Liquidity  levels may be  increased or  decreased  depending  upon the yields on
investment  alternatives and upon management's judgment as to the attractiveness
of the  yields  then  available  in  relation  to  other  opportunities  and its
expectation of future yield levels,  as well as  management's  projections as to
the short-term  demand for funds to be used in the Bank's loan  origination  and
other  activities.  At June 30,  1996,  the Bank  had an  investment  securities
portfolio  of  approximately  $16.2  million,   consisting   primarily  of  U.S.
government and agency obligations, FHLB stock, and marketable equity securities.
The Bank will continue to seek high quality investment  securities with short to
intermediate maturities from one to five years.

        Effective July 1, 1994, the Bank adopted Financial  Accounting Standards
Board Statement 115 ("FASB 115"),  "Accounting  for certain  Investments in Debt
and Equity  Securities,"  which resulted in the  reclassification  of investment
securities  and  mortgage-backed  securities  into those which are available for
sale and those which are intended to be held to maturity. The unrealized gain or
loss on the securities classified as available for sale, along with those of the
marketable  equity  securities,  are recognized,  net of the expected income tax
effect, as a separate component of retained earnings.

        The  Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board  (FASB) voted to allow each
institution to reconsider the  classification  of investments per FASB 115 after
November 15, 1995 and before the presentation of the December 31, 1995 financial
reports,  without "tainting" any assets which remained in that category.  During
this  period,  the  Bank  removed  $1.2  million  from  "held to  maturity"  and
reclassified them to the "available for sale" category.

        Beginning  in 1992,  the  Bank  expanded  its  investment  portfolio  to
incorporate ARM Mutual Funds,  primarily  short-term  investments.  These funds,
which  primarily  invest in  adjustable  rate  mortgage-backed  securities,  are
available  for sale and  marked  to  market  at the end of each  month  with all
adjustments  in value  reported to the Board of Directors  monthly.  At June 30,
1996, the Bank had $5.2 million or 32.21% of its investment portfolio in the ARM
Mutual Funds.

        Mortgage-backed   Securities.   The  Bank  has  in  the  past  purchased
mortgage-backed  securities  guaranteed by participation  certificates issued by
the FHLMC and secured by interests in pools of conventional mortgages originated
by other financial institutions.

        Mortgage-backed securities provide for monthly payments of principal and
interest and generally have contractual  maturities  ranging from five to thirty
years.  However,  due to expected repayment terms being  significantly less than
the underlying mortgage loan pool contractual maturities, the estimated lives of
these securities could be significantly shorter.

        Generally, it is management's intent to hold mortgage-backed  securities
until maturity. The Bank did not sell any mortgage-backed  securities during the
fiscal years ended June 30, 1996 and 1995.

        As of June 30, 1996,  mortgage-backed securities amounted to $443,000 or
 .66% of total assets.

Sources of Funds

    General.  The  major  source  of the  Bank's  funds  for  lending  and other
investment  purposes are  deposits,  amortization  and  prepayment  of loans and
mortgage-backed securities,  maturities of investment securities and operations.
Scheduled  loan principal  repayments  are a relatively  stable source of funds,
while  deposit  inflows and  outflows  and loan  prepayments  are  significantly
influenced by general interest rates and market conditions.  The Bank  has  also
utilized advances from the FHLB of Atlanta.

    Deposits. Customer deposits are attracted principally from within the Bank's
primary  market  area  through  the  offering  of a broad  selection  of deposit
instruments including  noninterest-bearing  demand deposit accounts,  negotiable
order of withdrawal  ("NOW")  accounts,  regular  savings,  money market deposit
accounts,  term certificate  accounts,  individual  retirement accounts ("IRAs")
with fixed and variable  rates of interest and club  accounts.  Deposit  account
terms vary according to the minimum balance required,  the time period the funds
must remain on deposit and the interest rate.

    The interest  rates paid by the Bank on deposits are set at the direction of
the asset/liability committee which consists of senior management.  The interest
rates on deposit  account  products are  determined by evaluating  the following
factors: (i) the Bank's anticipated need for cash and the timing of that desired
cash  flow;   (ii)  the  interest   rates  offered  by  other  local   financial
institutions,  and the degree of competition the Bank wishes to maintain;  (iii)
the cost of borrowing  from other  sources  versus the cost of  acquiring  funds
through customer deposits;  and (iv) the Bank's  anticipation of future economic
conditions and related interest rates.

    The Bank relies primarily on its service and longstanding  relationship with
customers to obtain  deposits and does not accept brokered  deposits.  It is not
the general policy of the Bank to offer premiums to attract deposits.  It is the
intent of the Bank's  management to increase  deposits  through  advertising and
marketing.  Products  emphasized  are  checking  accounts  and  certificates  of
deposit.

    Noninterest-bearing  demand  deposit  accounts,  NOW accounts,  money market
accounts, regular savings and club accounts constituted $17.2 million, or 29.92%
of the Bank's deposit portfolio at June 30, 1996. At that date,  certificates of
deposit constituted $40.4 million or 70.08% of the deposit portfolio,  including
certificates  of deposit  with  principal  amounts of  $100,000  or more,  which
constituted $4.0 million or 6.89% of the deposit  portfolio.  The Bank generally
negotiates retail rates for certificates of deposit of $95,000 or more.

    The  following  table sets  forth the  distribution  of the  Bank's  deposit
accounts for the periods  indicated and the weighted  average  interest rates on

        Borrowings.  Deposits  are the  primary  source  of funds of the  Bank's
lending and investment  activities and for its general  business  purposes.  The
Bank may also obtain  advances from the FHLB of Atlanta to supplement its supply
of lendable funds.  Advances from the FHLB of Atlanta would typically be secured
by a pledge of the  Bank's  stock in the FHLB of  Atlanta  and a portion  of the
Bank's first  mortgage  loans and certain  other  assets.  The Bank, if the need
arises,  may also access the Federal  Reserve Bank discount window to supplement
its supply of lendable funds and to meet deposit  withdrawal   requirements.  At
June 30, 1996, the Bank had no outstanding  advances from  FHLB. The Bank had  a
$1.5 million note payable due to the Company at June 30, 1996.

Competition

        The  Bank  encounters  strong  competition  both  in the  attraction  of
deposits  and  origination  of real  estate  and other  loans.  Competition  for
deposits comes  primarily  from numerous  credit  unions,  commercial  banks and
savings  institutions  with offices in the Bank's market area.  Competition  for
loans comes primarily from branches of commercial  banks and mortgage  companies
that operate in the areas which  comprise the Bank's primary market area. Due to
their  size,  many of the  Bank's  competitors  possess  greater  financial  and
marketing  resources.  The  Bank  competes  for  savings  accounts  by  offering
depositors  competitive interest rates and a high level of personal service. The
Bank competes for loans  primarily  through the interest  rates and loan fees it
charges and the efficiency and quality of services it provides  borrowers,  real
estate brokers and contractors.

        Thrift  institutions  can offer a wide range of  services to the public,
such as demand  deposits,  trust services and consumer and  commercial  lending.
These  factors,  combined  with  increasingly  sophisticated  depositors,   have
dramatically increased competition for savings dollars among thrift institutions
and other types of  investment  entities,  as well as with  commercial  banks in
regard to loans,  checking  accounts and other types of financial  services.  In
addition, large conglomerates and investment banking firms compete in the market
for financial services.

Subsidiary Activity

        The Bank is  permitted  to invest up to 2% of its assets in the  capital
stock of, or secured or unsecured  loans to,  subsidiary  corporations,  with an
additional  investment  of 1% of  assets  when  such  additional  investment  is
utilized primarily for community development  purposes.  Under such limitations,
as of June 30, 1996, the Bank was authorized to invest up to approximately  $1.3
million in the stock of, or loans to,  service  corporations  (based upon the 2%
limitation). As of June 30, 1996, the net book value of the Bank's investment in
its service corporation was approximately $12,000.

        The Bank has one subsidiary,  Southwest  Virginia  Service  Corporation,
Inc.  which was  incorporated  in 1975 in the  Commonwealth  of Virginia  and is
engaged in the sale of annuities.  The service  corporation  previously  offered
credit life and  disability  insurance to the borrowers of the Bank.  The income
from this subsidiary was $3,000 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1996.

Employees

        As of June 30, 1996,  the Bank had 30 full-time  employees.  None of the
Bank's  employees are  represented by a collective  bargaining  group.  The Bank
believes that its relationship with its employees is good.

Regulation

        Set forth below is a brief description of certain laws which are related
to the  regulation of the Company and the Bank. The following  description  does
not purport to be complete  and is qualified in its entirety by reference to all
applicable laws and regulations.

Company Regulation

        General.  The  Company is a unitary  savings  and loan  holding  company
subject to regulatory  oversight by the OTS. As such, the Company is required to
register  and  file  reports  with  the OTS and is  subject  to  regulation  and
examination by the OTS. In addition,  the OTS has enforcement authority over the
Company and its non-savings association  subsidiaries,  should such subsidiaries
be formed,  which also permits the OTS to restrict or prohibit  activities  that
are determined to be a serious risk to the subsidiary savings association.  This
regulation  and  oversight  is  intended  primarily  for the  protection  of the
depositors of the Bank and not for the benefit of stockholders of the Company.

        Qualified  Thrift  Lender  Test.  As a unitary  savings and loan holding
company, the Company generally is not subject to activity restrictions, provided
the Bank  satisfies  the Qualified  Thrift  Lender  ("QTL") test. If the Company
acquires  control of another savings  association as a separate  subsidiary,  it
would become a multiple savings and loan holding company,  and the activities of
the  Company  and any of its  subsidiaries  (other  than the  Bank or any  other
SAIF-insured   savings   association)   would  become  subject  to  restrictions
applicable to bank holding  companies unless such other  associations  each also
qualify as a QTL and were acquired in a supervisory acquisition.

        Restrictions on Acquisitions.  The Company must obtain approval from the
OTS  before  acquiring  control  of any  other  SAIF-insured  association.  Such
acquisitions  are generally  prohibited if they result in a multiple savings and
loan holding company  controlling  savings  associations in more than one state.
However,  such  interstate  acquisitions  are permitted  based on specific state
authorization or in a supervisory acquisition of a failing savings association.

        Federal law  generally  provides  that no "person,"  acting  directly or
indirectly or through or in concert with one or more other persons,  may acquire
"control," as that term is defined in OTS  regulations,  of a federally  insured
savings  institution  without  giving at least 60 days written notice to the OTS
and providing the OTS an  opportunity  to disapprove  the proposed  acquisition.
Such acquisitions of control may be disapproved if it is determined, among other
things,  that (i) the acquisition would substantially  lessen competition;  (ii)
the financial  condition of the acquiring  person might jeopardize the financial
stability  of  the  savings  institution  or  prejudice  the  interests  of  its
depositors;  or (iii) the  competency,  experience or integrity of the acquiring
person or the proposed  management  personnel  indicates that it would not be in
the  interest  of the  depositors  or the public to permit the  acquisitions  of
control by such person.

        Subject to appropriate  regulatory approvals, a bank holding company can
acquire  control  of a  savings  association,  and  if  it  controls  a  savings
association,  merge or  consolidate  the assets and  liabilities  of the savings
association  with, or transfer  assets and  liabilities  to, any subsidiary bank
which  is a  member  of the BIF with the  approval  of the  appropriate  federal
banking  agency  and the  Federal  Reserve  Board.  Generally,  federal  savings
associations can acquire or be acquired by any insured depository institution.

                                       19
<PAGE>

        Federal  Securities  Law. The Company is subject to filing and reporting
requirement by virtue of having its common stock registered under the Securities
Exchange  Act of  1934.  Furthermore,  company  stock  held by  persons  who are
affiliates (generally officers,  directors,  and principal  stockholders) of the
Company may not be resold without registration or unless sold in accordance with
certain  resale  restrictions.  If the Company meets  specified  current  public
information  requirements,  each affiliate of the Company is able to sell in the
public  market,  without  registration,  a  limited  number  of  shares  in  any
three-month period.

Bank Regulation

        General. As a federally chartered, SAIF-insured savings association, the
Bank is  subject  to  extensive  regulation  by the OTS  and the  FDIC.  Lending
activities and other  investments must comply with various federal statutory and
regulatory   requirements.   The  Bank  is  also  subject  to  certain   reserve
requirements promulgated by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System
("FRB").

        The OTS, in conjunction with the FDIC,  regularly  examines the Bank and
prepares  reports for the  consideration of the Bank's Board of Directors on any
deficiencies that are found in the Bank's  operations.  The Bank's  relationship
with its depositors and borrowers is also regulated to a great extent by federal
and state law,  especially in such matters as the ownership of savings  accounts
and the form and content of the Bank's mortgage documents.

        The Bank  must file  reports  with the OTS and the FDIC  concerning  its
activities  and  financial  condition,   in  addition  to  obtaining  regulatory
approvals  prior to entering into certain  transactions  such as mergers with or
acquisitions  of other savings  institutions.  This  regulation and  supervision
establishes a comprehensive  framework of activities in which an institution can
engage and is intended  primarily for the protection of the SAIF and depositors.
The  regulatory  structure  also  gives  the  regulatory  authorities  extensive
discretion in connection with their  supervisory and enforcement  activities and
examination  policies,  including policies with respect to the classification of
assets and the  establishment  of adequate  loan loss  reserves  for  regulatory
purposes.  Any change in such regulations,  whether by the OTS, the FDIC, or the
U.S. Congress could have a material adverse impact on the Company, the Bank, and
their operations.

        Insurance of Deposit  Accounts.  The Bank's deposit accounts are insured
by the SAIF to a maximum of $100,000 for each insured  member (as defined by law
and  regulation).  Insurance  of deposits may be  terminated  by the FDIC upon a
finding that the institution has engaged in unsafe or unsound  practices,  is in
an unsafe or unsound  condition  to  continue  operations  or has  violated  any
applicable law, regulation,  rule, order or condition imposed by the FDIC or the
institution's primary regulator.

        The FDIC  charges an annual  assessment  for the  insurance  of deposits
based on the risk a particular  institution poses to its deposit insurance fund.
Under this  system,  SAIF members pay within a range of 23 cents to 31 cents per
$100 of domestic deposits, depending upon the institution's risk classification.
This  risk  classification  is  based  on an  institution's  capital  group  and
supervisory subgroup assignment. In addition, the FDIC is authorized to increase
such deposit  insurance  rates,  on a semi- annual basis,  if it determines that
such  action  is  necessary  to cause  the  balance  in the  SAIF to  reach  the
designated  reserve ratio of 1.25% of SAIF-insured  deposits within a reasonable
period of time. The FDIC also may impose special  assessments on SAIF members to
repay amounts borrowed from the U.S.

                                       20
<PAGE>

Treasury or for any other reason deemed  necessary by the FDIC.  By  comparison,
most members of the Bank Insurance Fund ("BIF") (e.g.,  commercial  banks) pay a
substantially lower insurance premium.

        The Bank expects a one-time  assessment of approximately 68 basis points
on every $100 of deposits.  If the assessment was applied to the Bank's deposits
at June 30, 1996,  the Bank would  experience  a one time cost of  approximately
$300,000  (net of taxes).  If the Bank is required to pay the  proposed  special
assessment,  future  deposit  insurance  premiums  are  expected  to be reduced.
Management of the Bank is unable to predict whether this proposal or any similar
proposal  will be enacted or whether  ongoing SAIF premiums will be reduced to a
level comparable to that of BIF premiums.

        Examination  Fees. In addition to federal  deposit  insurance  premiums,
savings  institutions  like the  Bank are  required  by OTS  regulations  to pay
assessments to the OTS to fund the operations of the OTS. The general assessment
is paid on a  semi-annual  basis and is  computed  based on total  assets of the
institution,  including subsidiaries.  The Bank's OTS assessment expense for the
fiscal year ended June 30, 1996 totalled approximately $26,000.

        Regulatory Capital Requirements. OTS capital regulations require savings
institutions to meet three capital standards: (1) tangible capital equal to 1.5%
of total adjusted assets,  (2) a leverage ratio (core capital) equal to at least
3% of total adjusted assets, and (3) a risk-based  capital  requirement equal to
8.0% of total risk-weighted assets.

        Tangible  capital is defined as core capital less all intangible  assets
(including  supervisory  goodwill),  plus purchased  mortgage  servicing  rights
("PMSRs") valued at the lower of the maximum  percentage  established by the OTS
or the amount  includable  in core  capital.  Core  capital is defined as common
stockholders'  equity (including  retained  earnings),  noncumulative  perpetual
preferred stock,  and minority  interests in the equity accounts of consolidated
subsidiaries, and qualifying supervisory goodwill, less nonqualifying intangible
assets.

        The OTS leverage ratio regulation establishes a core capital ratio of at
least  3%  for  those  savings  associations  in  the  strongest  financial  and
managerial condition.  In the future, other savings associations may be required
to maintain minimum core capital of at least 4% of total adjusted assets, with a
maximum  core  capital  ratio  requirement  of 5%. In  determining  the required
minimum core capital  ratio,  the OTS may assess the quality of risk  management
and the level of risk in each savings association on a case-by-case basis.

        The risk-based  capital standard for savings  institutions  requires the
maintenance of total  risk-based  capital (which is defined as core capital plus
supplementary  capital)  of 8.0% of  risk-weighted  assets.  The  portion of the
allowance  for loan and lease  losses  includable  in  supplementary  capital is
limited to a maximum of 1.25% of risk-weighted  assets.  Overall,  supplementary
capital is limited to 100% of core capital. A savings association must calculate
its risk-weighted assets by multiplying each asset and off-balance sheet item by
various risk factors as determined  by the OTS,  which range from 0% for cash to
100% for delinquent  loans,  property acquired through  foreclosure,  commercial
loans and other assets.

        In  August  1993,  the  OTS  adopted  a  final  rule   incorporating  an
interest-rate risk component into the risk-based capital  regulation.  Under the
rule, an  association  with a greater than "normal"  level of interest rate risk
will be subject to a deduction of its interest  rate risk  component  from total
capital for purposes of calculating its risk-based capital. As a result, such an
association will be required to maintain  additional  capital in order to comply
with the risk-based  capital  requirement.  An  association  with a 

                                       21
<PAGE>

greater than "normal" interest rate risk is defined as an association that would
suffer a loss of net portfolio  value  exceeding 2.0% of the estimated  economic
value of its assets in the event of a 200 basis point increase or decrease (with
certain minor  exceptions) in interest  rates.  The interest rate risk component
will be calculated,  on a quarterly basis, as one-half of the difference between
an association's measured interest rate risk and 2.0% multiplied by the economic
value of its assets.  The rule also  authorizes  the Director of the OTS, or his
designee,  to waive or defer an association's  interest rate risk component on a
case-by-case  basis.  The final rule was  originally  effective as of January 1,
1994,  subject however to a two quarter "lag" time between the reporting date of
the data used to calculate an association's interest rate risk and the effective
date of each quarter's  interest rate risk component.  However,  in October 1994
the  Director  of the  OTS  indicated  that  the OTS  would  waive  the  capital
deductions  for  associations  with a greater than  "normal"  risk until the OTS
publishes an appeals  process.  The OTS has recently  indicated  that no savings
association  will be required to make  deductions from capital for interest rate
risk until further notice.

        The Bank's regulatory  capital exceeded all minimum  regulatory  capital
requirements  applicable to it as of June 30, 1996.  See Note 13 to the Notes to
the Consolidated Financial Statements.

        Prompt Corrective Action. Legislation requires the banking regulators to
take certain  supervisory  actions against  undercapitalized  institutions,  the
severity of which depends upon the institution's degree of capitalization. Under
the OTS final rule  implementing the prompt  corrective  action  provisions,  an
institution  shall  be  deemed  to be (i)  "well  capitalized"  if it has  total
risk-based capital of 10.0% or more, has a Tier I risk-based capital ratio (core
or leverage  capital to  risk-weighted  assets) of 6.0% or more,  has a leverage
capital  of 5.0% or more  and is not  subject  to any  order  or  final  capital
directive to meet and maintain a specific capital level for any capital measure,
(ii) "adequately capitalized" if it has a total risk-based capital ratio of 8.0%
or more,  a Tier I  risked-based  ratio of 4.0% or more and a  leverage  capital
ratio of 4.0% or more (3.0% under certain  circumstances)  and does not meet the
definition  of  well  capitalized,  (iii)  "undercapitalized"  if it has a total
risk-based  capital  ratio that is less than 6.0%, a Tier I  risk-based  capital
ratio that is less than 4.0% or a leverage  capital ratio that is less than 4.0%
(3.0% in certain circumstances), (iv) "significantly undercapitalized" if it has
a total  risk-based  capital  ratio that is less than 6.0%,  a Tier I risk-based
capital  ratio that is less than 3.0% or a leverage  capital  ratio that is less
than 3.0% and (v)  "critically  undercapitalized"  if it has a ratio of tangible
equity to total  assets  that is equal to or less than 2.0% In  addition,  under
certain   circumstances,   a  federal  banking  agency  may  reclassify  a  well
capitalized  institution as adequately capitalized and may require an adequately
capitalized  institution  or an  undercapitalized  institution  to  comply  with
supervisory  actions as if it were in the next lower  category  (except that the
FDIC  may  not  reclassify  a  significantly   undercapitalized  institution  as
critically undercapitalized).

        Dividend and Other Capital  Distribution  Limitations.  OTS  regulations
require  the  Bank  to  give  the OTS 30 days  advance  notice  of any  proposed
declaration of dividends to the Company, and the OTS has the authority under its
supervisory  powers to prohibit  the payment of  dividends  to the  Company.  In
addition,  the Bank may not declare or pay a cash  dividend on its capital stock
if the  effect  thereof  would be to reduce the  regulatory  capital of the Bank
below the amount required for the liquidation  account established in connection
with the Conversion.

                                       22
<PAGE>

        OTS regulations  impose  limitations  upon all capital  distributions by
savings  institutions,  such  as  cash  dividends,  payments  to  repurchase  or
otherwise acquire its shares, payments to shareholders of another institution in
a cash-out merger,  and other  distributions  charged against capital.  The rule
establishes  three tiers of  institutions,  based primarily on an  institution's
capital  level.  An  institution  that  exceeds  all  fully  phased-in   capital
requirements  before  and  after  a  proposed  capital   distribution  ("Tier  1
institution")  and has not  been  advised  by the OTS that it is in need of more
than the normal  supervision can, after prior notice but without the approval of
the OTS, make capital  distributions during a calendar year equal to the greater
of (i) 100% of its net income to date during the  calendar  year plus the amount
that would reduce by one-half its "surplus  capital  ratio" (the excess  capital
over its fully phased-in capital  requirements) at the beginning of the calendar
year,  or (ii) 75% of its net income over the most recent four  quarter  period.
Any additional capital  distributions  require prior regulatory approval.  As of
June 30,  1996,  the Bank was a Tier 1  institution.  In the  event  the  Bank's
capital fell below its fully  phased-in  requirement or the OTS notified it that
it was in need of more than  normal  supervision,  the  Bank's  ability  to make
capital distributions could be restricted. In addition, the OTS could prohibit a
proposed  capital  distribution  by any  institution,  which would  otherwise be
permitted by the regulation,  if the OTS determines that such distribution would
constitute an unsafe or unsound practice.

        Finally,  a savings  association  is  prohibited  from  making a capital
distribution if, after making the distribution, the savings association would be
undercapitalized   (not  meet  any  one  of  its  minimum   regulatory   capital
requirements).

        Qualified  Thrift Lender Test.  The Home Owners' Loan Act  ("HOLA"),  as
amended, requires savings institutions to meet a QTL test. If the Bank maintains
an  appropriate  level  of  Qualified  Thrift  Investments  ("QTIs")  (primarily
residential    mortgages   and   related    investments,    including    certain
mortgage-related  securities) and otherwise qualifies as a QTL, it will continue
to enjoy  full  borrowing  privileges  from the FHLB of  Atlanta.  The  required
percentage  of QTIs is 65% of  portfolio  assets  (defined  as all assets  minus
intangible  assets,  property used by the institution in conducting its business
and liquid assets equal to 10% of total assets). Certain assets are subject to a
percentage  limitation  of  20%  of  portfolio  assets.  In  addition,   savings
associations  may  include  shares  of stock  of the  FHLBs,  FNMA and  FHLMC as
qualifying  QTIs. As of June 30, 1996,  the Bank was in compliance  with its QTL
requirement  with 79.24% of its assets  invested in QTIs. No  assurances  can be
given that the Bank will be able to maintain this level of QTIs or that the QTIs
will remain above 65% of portfolio assets.

        A savings  association that does not meet a QTL test must either convert
to a bank charter or comply with the following  restrictions  on its operations:
(i) the savings  association  may not engage in any new activity or make any new
investment,  directly or  indirectly,  unless such  activity  or  investment  is
permissible  for a  national  bank;  (ii) the  branching  powers of the  savings
association  shall be restricted to those of a national bank;  (iii) the savings
association shall not be eligible to obtain any advances from its FHLB; and (iv)
payment of  dividends by the savings  association  shall be subject to the rules
regarding  payment of dividends by a national bank. Upon the expiration of three
years from the date the  savings  association  ceases to be a QTL, it must cease
any activity and not retain any investment not  permissible  for a national bank
and  immediately  repay any  outstanding  FHLB  advances  (subject to safety and
soundness considerations).

        Community Reinvestment. Under the Community Reinvestment Act ("CRA"), as
implemented  by OTS  regulations,  a savings  association  has a continuing  and
affirmative obligation consistent with its safe and sound operation to help meet
the credit needs of its entire  community,  including  low and  moderate  income
neighborhoods. The CRA requires the OTS, in connection with its examination of a

                                       23
<PAGE>

savings  institution,  to assess the institution's  record of meeting the credit
needs of its community and to take such record into account in its evaluation of
certain applications by such institution. The OTS evaluates an institution's CRA
performance  utilizing a four-tiered  system. The Bank received a "satisfactory"
rating as a result of its last evaluation in July 1995.

        Transactions  With Affiliates.  Generally,  restrictions on transactions
with affiliates require that transactions  between a savings  association or its
subsidiaries  and  its  affiliates  be on  terms  as  favorable  to the  Bank as
comparable  transactions  with  non-affiliates.  In  addition,  certain of these
transactions  are restricted to an aggregate  percentage of the Bank's  capital;
collateral  in  specified  amounts  must  usually be provided by  affiliates  to
receive loans from the Bank.  Affiliates of the Bank include the Company and any
company  which would be under  common  control  with the Bank.  In  addition,  a
savings  association  may not lend to any affiliate  engaged in  activities  not
permissible  for a  bank  holding  company  or  acquire  the  securities  of any
affiliate  that  is not a  subsidiary.  The  OTS has  the  discretion  to  treat
subsidiaries of savings associations as affiliates on a case-by-case basis.

        Regulations  govern  the  Bank's  authority  to  extend  credit  to  its
officers,  directors,  and 10%  shareholders,  as well as to entities  that such
persons control and require such loans to be made on terms substantially similar
to those  offered to  unaffiliated  individuals,  place  limits on the amount of
loans the Bank may make to such persons  based,  in part, on the Bank's  capital
position, and require certain approval procedures to be followed.

        Branching by Federal Savings Associations.  Through its Policy Statement
on  Branching  by  Federal  Savings  Associations,  the OTS  permits  interstate
branching  to the  full  extent  permitted  by  statute  (which  is  essentially
unlimited).  However,  the OTS will evaluate a branching  applicant's  record of
compliance  with the CRA.  A poor CRA  record  may be the basis for  denial of a
branching application.

        Liquidity  Requirements.   All  savings  associations  are  required  to
maintain an average daily balance of liquid assets equal to a certain percentage
of the sum of its average daily balance of net withdrawable deposit accounts and
borrowings payable in one year or less. The liquidity  requirement may vary from
time to time (between 4% and 10%) depending upon economic conditions and savings
flows of all savings  associations.  At June 30, 1996, the required liquid asset
ratio was 5.00%.

        Liquid  assets for purposes of this ratio include  specified  short-term
assets (e.g.,  cash,  certain time deposits,  certain  banker's  acceptances and
short-term  U.S.  Government  obligations)  and  long-term  assets  (e.g.,  U.S.
Government  obligations  of more  than one and less  than  five  years and state
agency  obligations  with a  maximum  remaining  term  of 24  months).  Monetary
penalties  may  be  imposed  upon   associations  for  violations  of  liquidity
requirements.

        Federal  Home  Loan  Bank  System.  The Bank is a member  of the FHLB of
Atlanta,  which is one of 12 regional FHLBs that  administers the home financing
credit  function  of  savings  associations.  Each FHLB  serves as a reserve  or
central bank for its members within its assigned region.  It is funded primarily
from  proceeds  derived from the sale of  consolidated  obligations  of the FHLB
System.  It makes loans to members (i.e.,  advances) in accordance with policies
and procedures established by the Board of Directors of the FHLB.

                                       24
<PAGE>

        As a member,  the Bank is required to purchase and maintain stock in the
FHLB of  Atlanta  in an  amount  equal to at least  1% of its  aggregate  unpaid
residential  mortgage loans, home purchase  contracts or similar  obligations at
the  beginning  of each year.  At June 30,  1996,  the Bank had $961,000 in FHLB
stock, which was in compliance with this requirement.

        The FHLBs are required to provide  funds for the  resolution of troubled
savings  associations  and to contribute to affordable  housing programs through
direct loans or interest subsidies on advances targeted for community investment
and  low-  and  moderate-income  housing  projects.   These  contributions  have
adversely  affected the level of FHLB dividends paid and could continue to do so
in the future.  For the fiscal year ended June 30, 1996,  dividends  paid by the
FHLB of Atlanta to the Bank totalled approximately $70,000.

        Federal Reserve System. The FRB requires all depository  institutions to
maintain  non-interest  bearing  reserves  at  specified  levels  against  their
transaction accounts (primarily checking,  NOW, and Super NOW checking accounts)
and  non-personal  time  deposits.  The balances  maintained to meet the reserve
requirements   imposed  by  the  FRB  may  be  used  to  satisfy  the  liquidity
requirements that are imposed by the OTS. At June 30, 1996, the Bank met the FRB
reserve requirements.

        Savings  associations  have  authority to borrow from the FRB  "discount
window," but FRB policy generally  requires savings  associations to exhaust all
FHLB sources before  borrowing from the FRB. The Bank had no borrowings from the
FRB at June 30, 1996.

        Subject to appropriate  regulatory approvals, a bank holding company can
acquire  control  of a  savings  association,  and  if  it  controls  a  savings
association,  merge or  consolidate  the assets and  liabilities  of the savings
association  with, or transfer  assets and  liabilities  to, any subsidiary bank
which  is a  member  of the BIF with the  approval  of the  appropriate  federal
banking agency and the FRB. Generally,  federal savings associations can acquire
or be acquired by any insured depository institution.

Company  since  June  1994  and  have  been  employed  by the  Bank in the  same
capacities for at least five years.

        B.L.  Rakes  has been  President,  Chief  Executive  Officer  and  Chief
Financial Officer of the Bank since 1977 and has been employed by the Bank since
1959.  He served  as Vice  President  and  Treasurer  from 1973 to 1977,  and as
Secretary  from 1974 to 1977.  He is a member and past  President  of the Rotary
Club of Roanoke and an arbitrator for the Roanoke Better Business Bureau.

Recent Legislation - Recapture of Post-1987 Bad-Debt Reserves

        The Small  Business  Job  Protection  Act of 1996 was signed into law in
August 1996,  and will among other things,  equalize the taxation of thrifts and
banks.  Thrifts are no longer allowed a choice between the percentage of taxable
income method and the experience  method in  determining  additions to their bad
debt reserves. Smaller thrifts with $500 million of assets or less would only be
allowed to use the  experience  method,  which is  generally  available to small
banks  currently.  Larger thrifts would be forced into using the specific charge
off method regarding its bad debts. Any reserve amounts added after 1987 will be
taxed over a six year period beginning in 1996;  however,  bad debt reserves set
aside  through 1987 will  generally not be taxed.  Institutions  can delay these
taxes  related  to post - 1987 bad debt  reserves  for two  years if they meet a
residential-lending  test. At June 30, 1996,  the Bank had $347,000 of post 1987
bad debt  reserves.  Any recapture of the Bank's  bad-debt  reserves may have an
adverse effect on net income.  The Bank is currently  evaluating the legislation
to determine its effect.

Corporate Profile and Related Information

        SWVA  Bancshares,  Inc.  (the  "Company")  is  the  parent  company  for
Southwest  Virginia  Savings  Bank,  FSB  ("Southwest  Virginia  Savings" or the
"Savings Bank").  The Company was formed as a Virginia  corporation in June 1994
at the  direction of the Savings  Bank to acquire all of the capital  stock that
the Savings Bank issued upon its conversion from the mutual to the stock form of
ownership (the  "Conversion")  in connection  with a $5.7 million initial public
offering completed on October 7, 1994. The Company is a unitary savings and loan
holding company which,  under existing laws,  generally is not restricted in the
types of business  activities  in which it may engage  provided that the Savings
Bank retains a specified amount of its assets in housing-related investments. At
the present time,  since the Company does not conduct any active  business,  the
Company  does not intend to employ any person  other than  officers but utilizes
the support staff and facilities of the Savings Bank from time to time.

        Southwest  Virginia Savings is a federally  chartered stock savings bank
headquartered  in Roanoke,  Virginia.  The  Savings  Bank was founded in 1927 as
Southwest Virginia Building and Loan Association and originally chartered by the
Commonwealth  of Virginia.  In 1990, a federal charter was obtained and the name
was changed to Southwest  Virginia  Savings  Bank,  FSB. Its deposits  have been
federally  insured since 1945. The Savings Bank is a community  oriented savings
institution  offering a variety of  financial  services to meet the needs of the
communities  that it serves.  Southwest  Virginia  Savings conducts its business
from its main office in Roanoke, Virginia, four full service branch offices, one
of which is also  located in the City of  Roanoke,  one in the City of Salem and
two in the County of Roanoke, and a loan production office in Roanoke County.

        The Savings  Bank is  primarily  engaged in the  business of  attracting
deposits  from  the  general  public  and  originating  loans  secured  by first
mortgages on one- to  four-family  residences in the Savings Bank's market area.
The Savings Bank also makes  nonresidential  and multi-family real estate loans,
construction loans, consumer loans and other loans.

                               President's Message

Dear Shareholder:

        The growth of assets in the second year of the Savings Bank's  operation
as a federally  chartered stock savings bank was not comparable to the growth in
the first year.

        The assets of the  Company  (the  Savings  Bank is its only  subsidiary)
increased by 20.75% during the first year and 1% for the second year. The slower
growth  was  caused by  consumers  accepting  fixed  rate  mortgage  loans  over
adjustable rate mortgage loans (ARMs).  The Savings Bank's policy of selling the
majority of its originated fixed rate mortgages and the lower amount of ARM loan
originations to put in its portfolio caused asset growth to slow.

        During the coming fiscal year,  the Savings Bank expects to put a larger
portion of its  originated  fixed rate loans in its  portfolio  and to  purchase
mortgage   backed   securities  if  the  market  and  interest  rates  meet  our
expectations.  The growth is expected to be funded with  deposit  growth  and/or
borrowings.

        The Board has  continued  to take  steps  toward  enhancing  shareholder
value. The Board declared and the Company paid a second semi-annual  dividend of
$0.15 per share on September 30, 1995, and a third semi-annual dividend of $0.15
per share was paid on March 31, 1996. A fourth semi-annual dividend of $0.15 per
share has been declared and is payable on September 30, 1996 to  shareholders of
record on  September  9,  1996.  On July 19,  1995,  the Board  approved a stock
buy-back of 5% of  outstanding  shares and on September  14,  1995,  the Company
announced  it had  received  the  necessary  approval  from the Office of Thrift
supervision  ("OTS") to  repurchase  up to 5% (28,529  shares) of the  Company's
common stock.  Again on May 15, 1996,  the Board approved a stock buy-back of 5%
of  outstanding  shares  and on June 14,  1996,  the  Company  announced  it had
received  the  necessary  approval  from the OTS to  purchase  up to 5%  (27,160
shares) of the Company's  Common Stock. As of September 9, 1996, the Company has
repurchased a total of 49,377 shares of its stock.

        Stock trades have been reported in the National Daily  Quotation  System
"pink  sheets"  since the  initial  issuance  on October  7, 1994.  The Board of
Directors has considered  listing the stock on the Nasdaq  SmallCap  Market.  In
determining whether to pursue a listing on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market, the Board
of Directors  considered a number of factors,  including  the  requirements  for
listing on Nasdaq,  the results of informal  discussions by management  with the
Company's  financial advisor and  representatives  of Nasdaq,  and the potential
effect of the pending  stock  buy-back  program on the ability of the Company to
continue  to  meet  the  ongoing  requirements  for  listing  on  Nasdaq.  After
considering  these  factors,  the Board of Directors  determined not to pursue a
Nasdaq listing at this time.

        Federal law requires  that the FDIC  maintain  the reserve  level of the
Savings Association  Insurance Fund ("SAIF") and the Bank Insurance Fund ("BIF")
at 1.25% of insured  deposits.  Reserves are funded  through  insurance  premium
payments  by insured  institutions.  The BIF has met its reserve  level  thereby
permitting the FDIC to  substantially  lower insurance  premiums for most banks.
The FDIC is asking  Congress  for the  authority  to impose a  one-time  special
assessment  on  thrifts  to bring the  reserves  for the SAIF to within  Federal
requirements.  Such an assessment  would adversely  affect our earnings,  but it
should lower  deposit  insurance  premiums in the future.  The  reduction  would
reduce operating expenses and, therefore, should increase profits.

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

General

        The business of the Savings Bank consists of receiving monetary deposits
from the general  public and  reinvesting  those funds  primarily in its primary
market  area in the  form  of  mortgage  loans  secured  by one- to  four-family
residences.  To a lesser extent, the Savings Bank originates nonresidential real
estate, multi-family,  construction, commercial, and consumer loans. The Savings
Bank  also   purchases   U.S.   government   and  federal   agency   securities,
mortgage-backed and mortgage-related  securities and invests in interest-bearing
deposits with other insured financial institutions.

        Currently,  the Savings  Bank's  primary market area consists of Roanoke
County,  the City of Salem,  the City of Roanoke,  and  portions  of  Botetourt,
Bedford,  and  Franklin  Counties.  The Savings  Bank  regards  this area as its
"basic" lending area, but loans are also made in other adjoining counties.

        The largest  component of the Savings  Bank's net income is net interest
income,  which is the difference  between interest income and interest  expense.
Consequently,  the Savings  Bank's  earnings  are  dependent on its net interest
income,  which is determined by the difference  ("interest rate spread") between
rates of interest earned on  interest-earning  assets and rates of interest paid
on  interest-bearing  liabilities,  and the relative amounts of interest-earning
assets and interest-bearing  liabilities.  The Savings Bank's net income is also
affected by its  provision for losses on loans and  investments,  as well as the
amount of noninterest income and noninterest  expense,  such as compensation and
related  expenses,  federal deposit insurance  premiums,  data processing costs,
occupancy  expenses,  and income  taxes.  Earnings of the Savings  Bank also are
affected   significantly  by  general   economic  and  competitive   conditions,
particularly  changes in market interest rates,  government policies and actions
of  regulatory  authorities  and demand for  financing  of real estate and other
types of loans.

Management Strategy

        The  Savings  Bank's  goal  is  to  serve  its  local  community  as  an
independent  community  savings  bank.  Its   consumer-oriented   philosophy  is
dedicated to financing  home ownership and providing  financial  services to its
customers.  The principal  components of the Savings Bank's management strategy,
which are designed to achieve its goal, are discussed below.

        The Savings Bank has been a traditional  lender for one- to  four-family
residential loans since its founding in 1927.  Financing homes for its community
continues to be the Savings Bank's primary goal.  These loans either are held in
the Savings  Bank's  portfolio or sold in the secondary  market.  These types of
loans make up 76.00% of the Savings Bank's total loan portfolio.

        The Savings Bank  historically  has maintained  good asset quality.  Its
emphasis on one- to four-family  mortgages and its related underwriting policies
and  practices  are intended to maintain  this  quality.  At June 30, 1996,  the
Savings  Bank  had  no  non-performing  assets.  The  Savings  Bank's  ratio  of
classified assets to total assets at June 30, 1996 was 1.30%.

                                        6

        The policy of the  Savings  Bank  historically  has been to limit  asset
growth  to  the  amount  which  can  be  adequately  capitalized  in a  changing
regulatory environment.  The Savings Bank also seeks to be responsive to changes
in market and economic conditions.

        One of the reasons the Savings Bank  converted  to a stock  Savings Bank
was to support  growth in savings and lending  activities  as market  conditions
warrant,  which would also leverage the Savings Bank's  existing branch network,
facilities,  and personnel  resources.  The assets of the Savings Bank increased
$11.4 million,  or 20.75%, from $54.9 million at June 30, 1994, to $66.3 million
at June 30,  1995.  The  increase was due  primarily  to the  conversion  and an
increase in loans  receivable of $10.7  million,  from $40.4 million at June 30,
1994, to $51.1 million at June 30, 1995.

        For fiscal year  1995-96,  the Bank's  asset  growth was 1%. This slower
growth  was  caused  by  consumers  accepting  fixed-rate  mortgage  loans  over
adjustable-rate mortgage loans (ARMs). The Bank's policy of selling the majority
of its  originated  fixed-rate  mortgage  loans and the lower amount of ARM loan
originations to put in its portfolio caused asset growth to slow.

        The Bank expects to put a larger  portion of its  originated  fixed-rate
loans in its portfolio  and to purchase  mortgage-backed  securities  during the
fiscal year 1996-97 to enhance asset growth. The growth is expected to be funded
with  deposit  growth or  borrowings.  The Savings  Bank  expects that its asset
growth policy of retaining a greater  portion of fixed-rate  loans will increase
its interest rate risk.

Asset and Liability Management

        The Savings Bank continues to manage  interest rate risk. It has managed
this risk on the asset side of its balance sheet with  adjustable-rate  mortgage
("ARM") loans, mutual funds holding adjustable rate  mortgage-backed  securities
("ARM Mutual Funds") and  government-related  securities with maturities of five
years or less. On the liability side of its balance sheet,  the Savings Bank has
emphasized  certificate  of  deposit  ("CDs")  with  terms of one year,  and has
managed  interest  rates paid for deposits.  Historically,  the Savings Bank has
limited its borrowings and relied primarily upon the cash flows from its savings
deposits and mortgage  repayments  as its primary  source of funds.  The Savings
Bank expects to possibly use borrowings as a means to leverage its growth in the
future.

        The ability to maximize net interest  income is largely  dependent  upon
the achievement of a positive interest rate spread which can be sustained during
fluctuations  in  prevailing  interest  rates.  Interest rate  sensitivity  is a
measure  of the  difference  between  amounts  of  interest-earning  assets  and
interest-bearing  liabilities  which  either  reprice  or mature  within a given
period of time. The difference,  or the interest rate repricing  "gap," provides
an indication of the extent to which an institution's  interest rate spread will
be  affected  by  changes  in  interest  rates  over a period of time.  A gap is
considered  positive when the amount of interest-rate  sensitive assets maturing
or repricing over a specific period of time exceeds the amount of  interest-rate
sensitive liabilities maturing or repricing within that period and is considered
negative  when the amount of  interest-rate  sensitive  liabilities  maturing or
repricing  over a specified  period of time exceeds the amount of  interest-rate
sensitive assets maturing or repricing within that period.  Generally,  during a
period of rising  interest  rates,  a negative gap within a given period of time
would adversely affect net interest income,  while a positive gap within a given
period of time would  result in an increase  in net  interest  income.  During a
period of falling  interest  rates, a negative gap within a given period of time
would result in an increase in net interest income,  while a positive gap within
a given  period of time would have the  opposite  effect.  However,  despite the
information shown on the following table,  depending on the  circumstances,  the
experience  of the Savings Bank has been that net interest  income could decline
with  increases in interest  rates and that net interest  income could  increase
with decreases in interest rates.

The  following  table  sets  forth the  amount of  interest-earning  assets  and
interest-bearing liabilities outstanding at June 30, 1996, which are expected to
reprice or mature in each of the time periods shown. Except as stated below, the
amount of  assets  and  liabilities  shown  which  reprice  or  mature  during a
particular  period were  determined  in  accordance  with the earlier of term to
repricing or the  contractual  terms of the asset or liability.  Adjustable-rate
loans and mortgage-backed  securities are adjusted for scheduled  repayments and
prepayments  based on  assumptions  provided  by a major wall  street  brokerage
house. The Savings Bank's passbook  accounts and money market accounts have been
aged in accordance with the  assumptions  provided by the OTS. The interest rate
sensitivity  of the Savings  Bank's assets and  liabilities  illustrated  in the
table could vary substantially if different assumptions were used.

Average Balance Sheet

        The  following  table sets forth  certain  information  relating  to the
Savings  Bank's  average  balance sheet and reflects the average yield on assets
and average cost of liabilities for the periods indicated and the average yields
earned and rates paid.  Such yields and costs are derived by dividing  income or
expense by the average balance of assets or liabilities,  respectively,  for the
periods  presented.  Average  balances  are  derived  from  month-end  balances.
Management does not believe that the use of month end balances  instead of daily
average  balances  has  caused  any  material  differences  in  the  information
presented.

                      Comparison of Financial Condition for
               Fiscal Years Ended June 30, 1996 and June 30, 1995

        Total  assets at June 30,  1996 were $67.0  million as compared to $66.3
million at June 30, 1995,  an increase of  $700,000.  The increase was due to an
increase in cash and investments offset by a decrease in loans receivable.  Cash
and cash equivalents increased from $830,000 at June 30, 1995 to $5.3 million at
June 30,  1996,  an increase of $4.5  million.  Interest  bearing  deposits  and
investments  increased  from $11.1  million at June 30, 1995 to $11.8 million at
June 30, 1996,  an increase of  $700,000.  The  increases  were due mainly to an
increase  in  savings  deposits,   loan  paybacks,   and  a  reduction  in  loan
originations  for the Bank.  Net loans  receivable  decreased  $4.3 million from
$51.1 million at June 30, 1995 to $46.8 million at June 30, 1996,  due primarily
to a net  decrease  of  $3.7  million  in one-  to  four-family  adjustable-rate
mortgage  "ARM"  loans.  This was due to a  softening  of  mortgage  loan rates,
thereby slowing the origination of "ARM" loans. On the liability side,  deposits
increased  $3.0 million to $57.6  million at June 30, 1996 from $54.6 million at
June 30, 1995.  At June 30, 1996,  there were no advances  outstanding  from the
Federal  Home Loan Bank of  Atlanta,  a decrease of $1.8  million  from June 30,
1995. This was due to an increase in cash available during the year.

        The Savings Bank has generally  depended on higher rate  certificates of
deposits of 12 months or less over lower rate core deposits in order to fund its
lending  operations.  This is done to manage  interest rate risk.  This trend is
likely to  continue  and could  have an  adverse  effect on the  Savings  Bank's
earnings and interest  rate spread  during  periods of rapidly  rising  interest
rates.  Management,  however,  may use borrowings  rather than  certificates  of
deposit to fund  operations if such borrowings are available at lower rates than
certificates of deposit.

        Net Income.  Net income for the year ended June 30, 1996 was $306,000 as
compared to $304,000  for the year ended June 30,  1995,  an increase of $2,000.
Per share earnings for the year ended June 30, 1996 was $0.60.

        Interest Income. Interest income increased $400,000 from $4.5 million at
June 30, 1995 to $4.9 million at June 30, 1996. The increase was mainly a result
in the interest  rates earned on  adjustable-rate  mortgages and the increase in
earnings on a larger investment base.

        Interest Expense.  Interest expense for the year ended June 30, 1996 was
$2.6 million as compared to $2.3  million for the year ended June 30,  1995,  an
increase of $300,000. The increase was due mainly to an increase in deposits.

        Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased slightly for the year
ended June 30, 1996. This resulted mainly from an increase in the interest rates
earned on adjustable-rate  mortgages,  offset by an increase in deposits and the
increase in rates paid on those deposits.

        Provision  for Credit  Losses.  The Savings Bank made no  provision  for
credit losses for the year ended June 30, 1996.  Management  reviews the Savings
Bank's loan portfolio. Future additions may become necessary based upon changing
economic  conditions,  increased  loan  portfolio,  or changes in the underlying
collateral of the loan portfolio.

                                       11


<PAGE>



        Noninterest Income.  Noninterest income increased $140,000 from $315,000
for the year ended June 30, 1995 to $455,000  for the year ended June 30,  1996.
This was due  primarily  to a  $158,000  increase  on gain on loans  sold in the
secondary  market from  $50,000 for the year ended June 30, 1995 to $208,000 for
the year ended June 30, 1996.

        Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense increased from $2.0 million for
the year ended June 30, 1995 to $2.2  million for the year ended June 30,  1996,
an increase of $200,000.  This was mainly due to an increase in personnel  costs
associated  with  the ESOP and  Stock  Benefit  Plan,  and the  increased  costs
associated  with  being a  stock  company.  Noninterest  expense  could  further
increase as a result of greater benefit plan expense in future periods.

        Provision for Income Taxes.  The provision for income taxes for the year
ended June 30, 1996 was $191,000 as compared to $190,000 for the year ended June
30,  1995.  The slight  increase  was due to the increase in income for the 1996
fiscal year.  The effective tax rate was 38.47% for the year ended June 30, 1996
and 38.57% for the year ended June 30, 1995.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

        The Savings  Bank's  primary  sources of funds are deposits and proceeds
from principal and interest  payments on loans and  mortgage-backed  securities.
Additional  sources of liquidity are advances from the FHLB of Atlanta and other
borrowings.  The Savings Bank has and may utilize  FHLB of Atlanta  borrowing in
the future during periods when management of the Savings Bank believes that such
borrowings  provide a lower cost source of funds than  deposit  accounts and the
Savings Bank desires liquidity in order to help expand its lending operations.

        The Savings  Bank's most  liquid  assets are cash and  cash-equivalents,
which include  investments in highly  liquid,  short-term  investments,  such as
overnight  investments  in the Federal  Home Loan Bank of  Atlanta.  At June 30,
1996, cash and cash equivalents totaled $5.3 million.

        At June 30, 1996, the Savings Bank had $33.5 million in  certificates of
deposits  due  within  one  year  and $6.7  million  due in two to three  years.
Management  estimates  that the Savings Bank will retain the deposits or replace
them with new deposits.  At June 30, 1996,  the Savings Bank had $3.9 million in
outstanding commitments to originate mortgages. The Savings Bank intends to fund
these  commitments with present  liquidity,  proceeds from loan repayments,  and
loan sales in the secondary market.

        Regulations  require that the Savings Bank maintain  specified levels of
liquidity.  The liquidity is measured as a ratio of cash and certain investments
to  withdrawable  savings.  At June 30,  1996,  the minimum  level of  liquidity
required by regulations  was 5.00%.  The Savings Bank's  liquidity ratio at June
30, 1996 was 12.29%.

        The Savings  Bank is required to maintain  specified  amounts of capital
pursuant to the Financial  Institutions Reform,  Recovery and Enforcement Act of
1989  ("FIRREA") and regulations  promulgated by the OTS. The capital  standards
generally  require the  maintenance of regulatory  capital  sufficient to meet a
tangible  capital  requirement,  a core  capital  requirement  and a  risk-based
capital  requirement.  At June 30, 1996,  the Savings  Bank's  tangible and core
capital  totaled  $7.5  million.  This  amount  exceeded  the  tangible  capital
requirement of $1.0 million by $6.5 million and the core capital  requirement of
$2.0

                                       12

million by $5.5  million on that date.  At June 30,  1996,  the  Savings  Bank's
risk-based  capital totaled $7.7 million,  which exceeded its risk-based capital
requirement of $2.8 million by $4.9 million.

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices

        The  financial  statements  and  related  data  have  been  prepared  in
accordance  with  generally  accepted  accounting  principles  which require the
measurement of financial  position and operating  results in terms of historical
dollars without  consideration  for changes in the relative  purchasing power of
money over time caused by inflation.

        Unlike industrial companies, nearly all of the assets and liabilities of
a financial institution are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates have
a more significant impact on a financial institution's  performance than general
levels  of  inflation.  Interest  rates  do not  necessarily  move  in the  same
direction or in the same magnitude as the price of goods and services since such
goods and services  are  affected by  inflation.  In the current  interest  rate
environment,  liquidity and the maturity  structure of the Savings Bank's assets
and  liabilities  are  critical to the  maintenance  of  acceptable  performance
levels.

period ended June 30, 1996. These financial statements are the responsibility of
the Company's  management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits.

We  conducted  our  audits  in  accordance  with  generally   accepted  auditing
standards.  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 consolidated  financial statements referred to above present
fairly,  in all material  respects,  the financial  position of SWVA Bancshares,
Inc. and  Subsidiaries,  as of June 30, 1996 and 1995,  and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-period period
ended June 30, 1996 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

As discussed in Notes 1 and 8 to the financial  statements,  the Company changed
its method of  accounting  for income  taxes by adopting  Statement of Financial
Accounting  Standards No. 109,  effective July 1, 1993. The Company also changed
its method of accounting for debt and equity securities by adopting Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, effective July 1, 1994.

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                          June 30, 1996, 1995 and 1994

SWVA  Bancshares,  Inc.  (the "Parent  Company"),  is a unitary  thrift  holding
company whose principal asset is its wholly-owned subsidiary, Southwest Virginia
Savings Bank, FSB (the "Bank").  The Bank is a federally chartered stock savings
bank as provided by the Home Owners' Loan Act. In these financial statements the
consolidated group is referred to collectively as the "Company".

The  accounting  and reporting  policies of the Company  conform with  generally
accepted  accounting  principles  (GAAP).  A brief  description of the Company's
significant accounting policies is presented as follows.

Note 1 - Summary of significant accounting policies

Basis of consolidation

The consolidated  financial  statements include the accounts of SWVA Bancshares,
Inc.,  Southwest  Virginia  Savings  Bank,  its  wholly-owned  subsidiary,   and
Southwest Virginia Service Corporation, the wholly-owned subsidiary of the Bank.
All material  intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the
consolidation.  The  Company  also  presents  herein  condensed  Parent  Company
financial  information.  Prior year amounts are  reclassified  when necessary to
conform with current year classifications.

Estimates

The  preparation  of  financial  statements  in  conformity  with GAAP  requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and  liabilities  and disclosure of contingent  assets and liabilities at
the date of the financial  statements  and the reported  amounts of revenues and
expenses  during the reporting  period.  Actual  results could differ from those
estimates.

Material  estimates that are  particularly  susceptible  to  significant  change
relate to the  determination  of the allowance  for credit losses on loans.  The
estimation process may include management obtaining  independent  appraisals for
significant collateral properties,  but the ultimate collectibility and recovery
of carrying  amounts are  susceptible to changes in local real estate market and
other local economic conditions.

Management  uses available  information to recognize  credit losses on loans and
real estate acquired in settlement of loans currently, while future additions to
the allowances may be necessary  based on changes in local economic  conditions.
In  addition,  regulatory  agencies,  as an integral  part of their  examination
process,  periodically  review the Bank's allowances for credit losses on loans.
Such  agencies  may require the Bank to recognize  additions  to the  allowances
based on their  judgments  about  information  available  to them at the time of
their examination.  Because of these factors, it is possible that the allowances
for credit losses on loans could change materially.

Cash equivalents

For purposes of the statements of cash flows,  the Company  considers all highly
liquid debt  instruments  with original  maturities,  when  purchased,  of three
months or less to be cash  equivalents.  Cash and cash equivalents for the three
years  presented  include  cash on hand and  demand  deposits.  Certificates  of
deposit with initial  maturities  greater than three months are shown separately
as interest-bearing deposits.

Note 1 - Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

Investment securities

Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards  No. 115,  Accounting  for Certain
Investments  in  Debt  and  Equity  Securities  (SFAS  115),   requires  certain
securities to be classified as "held to maturity",  "trading" or "available  for
sale", according to management's intent and ability.

Debt securities  classified as "held to maturity" are carried at cost,  adjusted
for  amortization  of premium and  accretion  of discount  over the terms of the
securities,  as long as the Company has the ability and  maintains  the positive
intent to hold such securities to maturity. If such securities are sold prior to
maturity,  gains or losses are  recognized  in the year of sale by the  specific
identification method.

Trading securities, if any, are carried at fair value. Realized gains and losses
on sales and  unrealized  changes in fair  values are  included  in  noninterest
income.

Marketable equity securities not classified as "trading" and debt securities not
classified  as  "trading" or "held to  maturity"  are carried at fair value,  if
marketable, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported
as a separate  component of stockholders'  equity.  Realized gains and losses on
sales are included in  noninterest  income and are  computed  under the specific
identification method.

Mortgage-backed and related securities

Mortgage-backed securities, held to maturity,  represent participating interests
in pools of  long-term  first  mortgage  loans  originated  and  serviced by the
issuers of the  securities.  These  securities  are carried at unpaid  principal
balances,  adjusted for  unamortized  premiums and discounts as the Bank has the
ability and intent to hold such  securities to maturity.  Premiums and discounts
are amortized using the interest method over the remaining period to contractual
maturity,  adjusted for  anticipated  prepayments.  If such  securities are sold
prior  to  maturity,   gains  and  losses  are  determined  using  the  specific
identification method.

Loans held for sale

Mortgage  loans  originated  and intended for sale in the  secondary  market are
carried  at the lower of cost or  estimated  fair  value in the  aggregate.  Net
unrealized  losses  are  recognized  in a  valuation  allowance  by  charges  to
noninterest income.

Loans and allowances for credit losses

The  Company  adopted the  provisions  of  Statements  of  Financial  Accounting
Standards  No.114,  Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan (SFAS 114),
and  Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan - Income  Recognition  and
Disclosures  (SFAS 118),  as of July 1, 1996.  The  adoption has had no material
effect on the financial position or operating results of the Company nor does it
have any effect on the comparability of financial statement information.

Loans  receivable  that  management  has the intent and  ability to hold for the
foreseeable  future,  or until maturity or pay off, are carried at their face or
par values,  net of unearned  discounts,  participation or whole-loan  interests
owned by  others,  unearned  loan fees,  undisbursed  loans in  process,  and an
allowance for credit losses.

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                          June 30, 1996, 1995 and 1994

Note 1 - Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

Valuation  allowances  for estimated  credit losses on loans are  established by
charges to income when any material and estimable  decline in value is deemed to
have occurred.  The determination of the adequacy of the valuation  allowance is
based on a detailed  analysis  of  individual  loans  with known or  anticipated
adverse performance  characteristics,  and includes  consideration of historical
patterns,   industry  experience,   current  economic  conditions,   changes  in
composition and risk  characteristics  of the loan portfolio,  and other factors
deemed relevant to the collectibility of the loans currently outstanding. A loan
is considered  impaired when,  based on current  information  and events,  it is
probable  that all amounts due  according to the  contractual  terms of the loan
agreement will not be  collectible.  Allowances for impaired loans are generally
determined  based on collateral  values or the present  value of estimated  cash
flows.  The  allowance is increased by a provision for credit  losses,  which is
charged to expense, and reduced by charge-offs, net of recoveries.

Loans that are 90 days or more past due are  individually  reviewed for ultimate
collectibility.  Uncollectible interest on loans that are contractually past due
is charged off, or an allowance is established  based on  management's  periodic
evaluation. The allowance is established by a charge to interest income equal to
all interest previously accrued,  and income is subsequently  recognized only to
the extent that cash payments are received until, in management's  judgment, the
borrower's  ability to make periodic interest and principal  payments is back to
normal, in which case the loan is returned to accrual status.

Foreclosed real estate

Foreclosed  real  estate  owned,  if  any,  consists  of  property  acquired  by
foreclosure on delinquent loans or by deed in lieu of foreclosure. Such property
is  recorded  initially  at the lower of cost or fair value and is  subsequently
maintained at the lower of cost or fair value minus the estimated costs to sell.

Property, equipment and depreciation

The various  classes of property are stated at cost and are  depreciated  by the
straight-line  method over their  estimated  useful  lives of 10 to 50 years for
buildings  and  improvements  and 3 to 12 years  for  furniture,  fixtures,  and
equipment.   Repairs  are  expensed  as  incurred.   The  cost  and  accumulated
depreciation of property are eliminated from the accounts upon disposal, and any
resulting gain or loss is included in the determination of net income.

Income taxes

The  Company  adopted  the  provisions  of  Statement  of  Financial  Accounting
Standards No. 109,  Accounting  for Income Taxes (SFAS 109), as of July 1, 1993.
This   statement   required   a  change   from  the   deferred   method  to  the
asset-and-liability  method of accounting for deferred  income taxes.  Under the
asset-and-liability  method,  deferred  income taxes are  recognized for the tax
consequences of "temporary  differences" by applying enacted statutory tax rates
applicable  to future  years to  differences  between  the  financial  statement
carrying  amounts and the tax bases of existing  assets and  liabilities.  Under
SFAS 109, the effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized in
income in the period that includes the enactment date.

                          June 30, 1996, 1995 and 1994

Note 1 - Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

Loan origination fees, costs, discounts and premiums

Loan  origination  fees  are  accounted  for in  accordance  with  Statement  of
Financial  Accounting  Standards No. 91, Accounting for  Nonrefundable  Fees and
Costs Associated with Originating or Acquiring Loans and Initial Direct Costs of
Leases  (SFAS 91).  Under SFAS 91,  loan  origination  and  commitment  fees and
certain  direct loan  origination  costs are  deferred.  Upon the  expiration of
unfunded commitments,  the related fees are recognized into income as loan fees.
Loan  origination  fees on  funded  commitments  and  related  direct  costs are
amortized into income on loans as yield adjustments over the contractual life of
related loans using the level-yield method.

Discounts  and premiums on loans  purchased are  recognized  in interest  income
using the level-yield method over the average life of the loan.

Sales of mortgage loans, mortgage-related securities and foreclosed real estate

Gains and losses on the sales of loans,  participation  interest  in loans,  and
foreclosed real estate are accounted for by imputing gain or loss on those sales
where a yield  rate  guaranteed  to the buyer is more or less than the  contract
interest  rate  being  collected,  in the case of loans,  and  where  foreclosed
property is sold on financing  terms more or less  favorable than the prevailing
market terms for similar  property.  Such gains or losses are  recognized in the
financial  statements  for the year of sale.  The Bank services  loans that have
been sold with  servicing  retained.  Such loan balances are not included in the
accompanying consolidated statements of financial condition.

Advertising

The Company expenses most advertising costs as incurred. Such expenses are shown
in the  consolidated  statements  of income.  As of June 30, 1996 and 1995,  the
Company's   statements  of  financial   condition  included  $2,000  of  prepaid
advertising.

Earnings per share

Earnings  per share of common  stock for the year ended June 30,  1996 have been
computed by dividing the net income by the weighted  average number of shares of
common stock and common stock  equivalents  outstanding  during the year.  Stock
options are regarded as common stock equivalents and are, therefore,  considered
in both primary and fully diluted earnings per share calculations.  Common stock
equivalents are computed using the treasury stock method.

Shares  acquired  by the  employee  stock  benefit  plan  are  accounted  for in
accordance  with AICPA  Statement of Position 93-6 and are not considered in the
weighted  average  shares  outstanding  until the shares have been earned by the
employees and/or committed to be released.

                          June 30, 1996, 1995 and 1994

Note 1 - Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

Earnings per share were based on the following as of June 30, 1996:

       Common shares issued                                   $ 543,190
       Common shares unallocated by ESOP                         36,517
                                                              ---------

                 Shares used in earnings computation          $ 506,673
                                                               ========

Earnings per share  information for 1994 is not meaningful  because the Bank did
not complete its stock conversion until 1995.

Fair values of financial instruments

The  following  methods and  assumptions  were used by the Company in estimating
fair values of financial instruments as disclosed herein:

- -    Cash  and  short-term  instruments  - The  carrying  amounts  of  cash  and
     short-term instruments approximate their fair value.

- -    Available-for-sale  and  held-to-maturity  securities  -  Fair  values  for
     securities,  excluding  restricted equity  securities,  are based on quoted
     market  prices.   The  carrying  values  of  restricted  equity  securities
     approximate fair values.

- -    Loans   receivable  -  Fair  values  are  based  on  carrying   values  for
     variable-rate  loans that reprice frequently and have no significant change
     in credit  risk.  Fair  values for  certain  mortgage  loans (for  example,
     one-to-four  family  residential)  and  other  consumer  loans are based on
     quoted   market  prices  of  similar   loans  sold  in   conjunction   with
     securitization    transactions,    adjusted   for   differences   in   loan
     characteristics.  Fair values for  commercial  real  estate and  commercial
     loans are estimated using  discounted cash flow analyses and interest rates
     currently  being  offered  for loans with  similar  terms to  borrowers  of
     similar credit quality.  Fair values for impaired loans are estimated using
     discounted  cash flow  analyses  or  underlying  collateral  values,  where
     applicable.

- -    Deposit liabilities - The fair values disclosed for demand deposits are, by
     definition,  equal to the amount  payable on demand at the  reporting  date
     (that is, their carrying  amounts).  The carrying amounts of variable-rate,
     fixed-  term  money-market  accounts  and  certificates  of  deposit  (CDs)
     approximate  their  fair  values at the  reporting  date.  Fair  values for
     fixed-rate CDs are estimated using a discounted cash flow  calculation that
     applies  interest  rates  currently  being  offered  on  certificates  to a
     schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on time deposits.

- -    Short-term  borrowings - The carrying  amounts of federal funds  purchased,
     borrowings under  repurchase  agreements,  and other short-term  borrowings
     maturing within 90 days approximate their fair values. Fair values of other
     short-term  borrowing are  estimated  using  discounted  cash flow analyses
     based on the  Company's  current  incremental  borrowing  rates for similar
     types of borrowing arrangements.

Note 1 - Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

- -    Long-term  debt - The  fair  values  of the  Company's  long-term  debt are
     estimated  using  discounted  cash  flow  analyses  based on the  Company's
     current  incremental   borrowing  rates  for  similar  types  of  borrowing
     arrangements.

- -    Accrued  interest - The carrying  amounts of accrued  interest  approximate
     their fair values.

- -    Off-balance-sheet  instruments - Fair values for off-balance-sheet  lending
     commitments  are based on fees  currently  charged  to enter  into  similar
     agreements,  taking into account the remaining  terms of the agreements and
     counterparties' credit standings.

Conversion to stock ownership

At a  special  meeting  on July 20,  1994,  the  members  of the  Bank  approved
management's plan to convert the Savings Bank from a Federal Mutual to a Federal
Stock Savings Bank. The plan called for the formation of SWVA  Bancshares,  Inc.
which  would own the stock of the Bank upon its  conversion  to a stock  form of
ownership.  The stock of the Parent  Company  would  then be  offered  through a
Subscription and Community Offering to the Bank's  tax-qualified  employee stock
plans, eligible account holders and others. The transaction was in the form of a
pooling of interests.

On October 7, 1994,  the Parent  Company issued 570,590 shares of $.10 par value
common  stock at $10 per share and became the  parent  company of the Bank.  Net
proceeds,  after deducting  conversion  expenses and underwriters'  discounts of
$469,000,  were  $5,242,000  and are  reflected as common  stock and  additional
paid-in  capital  in  the  accompanying  consolidated  statements  of  financial
condition.  The Parent  Company's  Articles  of  Incorporation  contain  certain
limitations on voting rights and other "anti-takeover" provisions.

As part of the  conversion  to stock form,  the Bank  formed an  Employee  Stock
Ownership Plan (ESOP) for eligible  employees.  The ESOP purchased 45,647 common
shares of the Parent Company issued in the conversion, which purchase was funded
by a loan  from the  Parent  Company.  In  accordance  with  generally  accepted
accounting  principles,  the unpaid balance of the ESOP loan has been eliminated
on the Company's consolidated  statements of financial condition.  Stockholders'
equity has been reduced by the aggregate  purchase  price of the shares owned by
the ESOP net of the shares  committed to be released.  Contributions to the ESOP
by the Savings Bank are made to fund the principal and interest  payments on the
debt of the  ESOP.  As of June  30,  1996,  a total  of  9,130  shares  had been
released.

Impact of new accounting standards

In  April  1995,  the  Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board  ("FASB")  issued
Accounting for the Impairment of Long- Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to
be Disposed Of (SFAS 121). This statement  establishes standards for recognizing
and  measuring  the  impairment  of  long-lived  assets,   certain  identifiable
intangibles,  and  goodwill,  when an entity is unable to recover  the  carrying
amount of those assets.  This statement is effective for the year beginning July
1, 1996.  SFAS 121 is not  expected to have a material  effect on the  Company's
financial statements in the year of adoption.

                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                          June 30, 1996, 1995 and 1994

Note 1 - Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

In May 1995, FASB issued  Accounting for Mortgage  Servicing  Rights (SFAS 122),
which amends  Accounting for Certain Mortgage  Banking  Activities (SFAS 65), to
require that a mortgage banking  enterprise  recognize as separate assets rights
to  service  mortgage  loans for  others,  however  those  servicing  rights are
acquired.  SFAS 122  requires  that a  mortgage  banking  enterprise  assess its
capitalized  mortgage servicing rights for impairment based on the fair value of
those rights and is effective for the year beginning  July 1, 1996.  SFAS 122 is
to be applied prospectively and is not expected to have a material effect on the
Company's financial statements in the year of adoption.

In October 1995, FASB issued Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (SFAS 123),
which will  become  effective  for the  Company  beginning  July 1,  1996.  This
statement will require increased disclosure of compensation expense arising from
both fixed and  performance  stock  compensation  plans.  Such  expense  will be
measured  as the fair  value of the  award  at the date it is  granted  using an
option-pricing  model that takes into  account the  exercise  price and expected
volatility,  expected  dividends on the stock and the expected risk-free rate of
return during the term of the option.  The compensation cost would be recognized
over the service  period,  usually the period from the grant date to the vesting
date. SFAS 123 encourages, rather than requires, companies to adopt a new method
that accounts for stock compensation  awards based on their estimated fair value
at the date they are granted. Companies would be permitted, however, to continue
accounting under Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25. The Company
will continue to apply APB Opinion No. 25 in their financial statements and will
be  required  to  disclose  pro forma net  income  and  earnings  per share in a
footnote, determined as if the Company had applied the new method.

Note 8 - Income taxes

The  Bank's  portion  of  the  consolidated   taxable  income  was  computed  by
application  of  Section  593(b)(2)  of the U.S.  Internal  Revenue  Code  which
provides a special deduction for bad debts. The bad debt deduction may be a "tax
preference item" to which a minimum tax may apply.

The 1996 federal tax legislation  repealed the benefits of Section  593(b)(2) of
the U.S.  Internal Revenue Code. For ensuing fiscal years, the Bank will compute
its tax bad debt deduction by use of the "experience method" which is based on a
moving  five-year  average  of actual  loss  experience.  The  legislation  also
provides that "applicable  excess reserves" must be recaptured as taxable income
over five years  beginning in fiscal 1997.  The amount to be  recaptured  is the
excess of the accumulated  reserves since 1987 over the amount allowed by use of
the experience method for those years. The Bank has not determined the amount of
its potential  recapture but does not believe it will have a material  effect on
its reportable earnings.

was included in income for 1994.

The Company's  consolidated  income tax returns for years not closed by statutes
of limitations are subject to review by tax authorities.

Note 9 - Retirement plans and employee benefit programs

The Company has a multi-employer defined benefit pension plan with The Financial
Institution's  Retirement  Fund.  Pension  expense is the amount of the required
contribution,  and a liability is recognized  for such  contributions  which are
unpaid at the end of the fiscal year.  Pension  expense was $92,000 for the year
ended June 30, 1996 and  $101,000  for each of the years ended June 30, 1995 and
1994.

The multi-employer  defined benefit plan covers  substantially all employees who
have reached age 21 and who have completed one year of service. The benefits are
based on length of service and high five-year average earnings.  However,  in no
event will the benefits be less than those vested  through June 30, 1992 under a
previous plan.

Supplemental executive retirement plan

The Company has deferred  compensation  agreements  with two principal  officers
which  provide for  retirement  benefits  supplementary  to those of the pension
plan.  As of June 30, 1996 and 1995,  cumulative  accruals  under the  contracts
totaled $150,000 and $127,000, respectively, and constituted general obligations
of the Company.

Employee stock ownership plan

At the time of the stock  conversion,  the Bank  established  an Employee  Stock
Ownership  Plan  covering all  full-time  employees  over the age of 21, with at
least 1,000 hours of service  within a plan year.  The ESOP borrowed  funds from
the Company to purchase a total of 45,647 shares of the Company's  common stock,
the loan being  collateralized  by the common stock.  Contributions by the Bank,
along with dividends received on unallocated  shares, are used to repay the loan
with shares being  released from the  Company's  lien  proportional  to the loan
repayments.  Annually  on June 30,  the  released  shares are  allocated  to the
participants  in the  same  proportion  that  their  wages  bear  to  the  total
compensation of all of the  participants.  The Company has released 9,130 shares
of the common  stock as of June 30,  1996.  The  Company  recognized  $5,000 and
$54,500 as accrued compensation costs in 1996 and 1995,  respectively.  The fair
value of unearned ESOP shares totaled $570,000 and $490,000 at June 30, 1996 and
1995, respectively. There were no commitments to repurchase ESOP shares.

The Company accounts for its ESOP in accordance with Statement of Position 93-6.
Accordingly,  the shares  pledged as  collateral  are reported as a reduction of
stockholders' equity in the consolidated  statements of financial condition.  As
shares are released from collateral,  the Company reports  compensation  expense
equal  to the  current  market  price  of the  shares,  and  the  shares  become
outstanding  for earnings per share  computations.  Dividends on allocated  ESOP
shares  are  recorded  as  a  reduction  of  retained  earnings;   dividends  on
unallocated ESOP shares are recorded as a reduction of debt.

Recognition and retention plan

The stockholders approved the establishment of a Management Stock Bonus Plan and
Trust  (MSBP) on October  25,  1995.  The plan  states  that the Trust shall not
purchase  more than 4% of the  aggregate  shares of common  stock  issued by the
Company in the  mutual-to-stock  conversion of the Bank (22,823 shares).  During
1996,  the Bank  purchased  22,812  shares of the  Company's  common stock at an
average  price of $17.02  per share to be  awarded to  directors,  officers  and
employees in  accordance  with the  provision of the  Recognition  and Retention
Plan.  The costs of the shares  awarded  under the plan are recorded as unearned
compensation,  a contra  equity  account,  and are  recognized  as an expense in
accordance with the vesting requirements under the plan. For the year ended June
30, 1996, the amount included in compensation expense was $36,000. The status of
the shares in this plan at June 30, 1996 is shown as follows.

Stock option plans

The  stockholders  also  approved  the  establishment  of a stock option plan on
October 5, 1995 for directors,  officers and employees. The exercise price under
both plans is $17 per share, the fair market price on the date of the grant. One
is a non-incentive stock option plan, and the other is an incentive stock option
plan.  Rights  to  exercise  options  granted  vest at the rate of 20% per year,

Note 10 - Financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk

The Company is party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the
normal course of business to meet the financing  needs of its  customers.  These
financial  instruments consist primarily of commitments to extend credit.  These
instruments  involve,  to varying degrees,  elements of credit risk in excess of
the amount recognized in the statements of financial  position.  The contract or
notional  amounts of those  instruments  reflect the extent of  involvement  the
Company has in particular classes of financial instruments.

The  Company's  exposure  to credit loss in the event of  nonperformance  by the
other party to the  financial  instrument  for  commitments  to extend credit is
represented by the contractual notional amount of those instruments. The Company
uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional  obligations
as it does for on- balance-sheet instruments.

Commitments  to extend  credit are  agreements  to lend to a customer as long as
there is no violation of any condition established in the contract.  Commitments
generally  have fixed  expiration  dates or other  termination  clauses  and may
require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to be drawn
upon, the total commitment amounts generally represent future cash requirements.
The Company evaluates each customer's credit-worthiness on a case-by-case basis.
The amount of  collateral  deemed  necessary  by the Company  upon  extension of
credit  is  based  on  management's  credit  evaluation  of  the  counter-party.
Collateral normally consists of real property.

The Company's  commitments to finance real estate  acquisitions and construction
were $3,929,000 at June 30, 1996,  $2,561,000 at June 30, 1995 and $5,320,000 at
June  30,  1994.  As of June  30,  1996,  the  Company  had  contracted  to sell
$2,522,000  of the loans to be  financed.  No loss is  anticipated.  At June 30,
1996,  outstanding  letters of credit  totaled  $435,000,  and unfunded lines of
credit totaled $840,000. Loans sold with recourse totaled $-0- and $3,165,000 in
1996 and 1995, respectively.

Note 11 - Restricted retained earnings

The Bank is  required  by federal  insurance  regulations  to  maintain  certain
reserves for the sole purpose of absorbing  losses. A federal  insurance reserve
was established for this purpose by an  appropriation of retained  earnings.  In
1980, the  requirement  for a separate  federal  insurance  reserve  account was
eliminated.  However,  amounts  previously  credited  to this  separate  reserve
account are designated "restricted retained earnings" and shall be used only for
absorption of losses.  The amount so designated  totaled $1,790,000 at both June
30, 1996 and 1995 and $1,792,000 at June 30, 1994.

In accordance  with the  regulations  concerning  conversion  from a mutual to a
stock  organization,  the Bank was required to establish a  liquidation  account
equal  to its net  worth  as of the  latest  statement  of  financial  condition
contained in the final prospectus.  Such liquidation account is to be maintained
as of the eligibility  record date (March 31, 1993) or supplemental  eligibility
record  date (June 30,  1994) for the  benefit of  depositors  who  continue  to
maintain  their  deposits  in the Bank  after the  conversion  in the event of a
complete  liquidation of the Bank. If, however, on any annual closing date (June
30) of the Bank,  the amount in any  deposit  account is less than the amount in
such deposit  account on March 30, 1993 or June 30,  1994,  then the interest in
the liquidation account relating to such deposit account would be reduced by the
amount of such reduction,  and such interest will cease to exist if such deposit
account is closed. The Bank may not declare or pay a cash dividend or repurchase
any of its capital stock if the effect  thereof would cause the net worth of the
Bank to be reduced below either the amount required for the liquidation  account
or  the  minimum  regulatory  capital  requirements.   At  June  30,  1996,  the
liquidation account,  unadjusted for customer  withdrawals,  totaled $4,166,000,
and minimum regulatory capital was $2,775,000.

See Note 13 for Bank regulatory capital requirements.

Note 12 - Significant group concentrations of credit risk

The Company  grants  residential,  commercial,  and consumer  loans to customers
mainly in the  southwest  region of Virginia.  The Company has a loan  portfolio
consisting  principally of residential  mortgage loans and is not dependent upon
any  particular  economic  sector,  although  the  portfolio  as a whole  may be
affected by general economic factors of the southwest Virginia region.

At June 30, 1996, the Company had commercial bank deposits of $243,000 in excess
of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limit.

Note 13 - Bank regulatory matters

The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital  requirements  administered by
the federal banking agencies.  Failure to meet minimum capital  requirements can
initiate  certain  mandatory and possibly  additional  discretionary  actions by
regulators  that,  if  undertaken,  could have a direct  material  effect on the
Bank's  financial   statements.   Under  capital  adequacy  guidelines  and  the
regulatory  framework for prompt corrective  action, the Bank must meet specific
capital  guidelines  that involve  quantitative  measures of the Bank's  assets,
liabilities, and certain off-balance- sheet items as calculated under regulatory
accounting  practices.  The Bank's capital amounts and  classification  are also
subject to  qualitative  judgments  by the  regulators  about  components,  risk
weightings, and other factors.
