                          JAMES RIVER BANKSHARES, INC.
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)


Note 1. Basis of Presentation

         The accompanying  unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not
include  all of  the  disclosures  and  notes  required  by  generally  accepted
accounting principles. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring accruals)  considered necessary for a fair presentation have
been  included.  The  results of  operations  for the three  month and six month
periods ended June 30, 1998 and 1997 are not  necessarily  indicative of results
that may be  expected  for the entire year or any  interim  period.  The interim
financial  statements  should be read in conjunction  with the December 31, 1997
Annual Report to  Shareholders  on Form 10-K,  including  the 1997  consolidated
financial statements of James River Bankshares, Inc. ("James River").


Note 2. Earnings and Dividends Per Share


         On September 25, 1997, the Board of Directors  declared a 3-for-2 stock
split  effected  in the form of a 50%  stock  dividend,  which  was  distributed
November 7, 1997. Accordingly,  the average number of shares outstanding and per
share  amounts  for  earnings,  dividends  declared,  and book  value  have been
restated for all periods presented to give effect to the split.

         James River adopted Statement of Financial  Accounting Standards (SFAS)
No. 128,  "Earnings  Per  Share," on  December  31,  1997.  Accordingly,  a dual
presentation  of  basic  and  diluted  earnings  per  share is  included  in the
Consolidated  Statements of Income. Earnings per share amounts for prior periods
have been restated to conform with the new  presentation.  The effect of the new
standard was not material.

         Cash  dividends  paid in the first quarter of 1998 amounted to $.10 per
share.  In the second quarter of 1998,  cash dividends paid amounted to $.10 per
share.  For the first and second  quarters  ended June 30, 1997,  cash dividends
paid amounted to $.09 per share per quarter.

Note 3.  Comprehensive Income

         On January 1, 1998, James River adopted SFAS No. 130, "Reporting
Comprehensive Income."  SFAS No. 130 establishes standards for reporting and
displaying comprehensive income and its components.  The adoption of SFAS No.
130 did not have a material impact on the Company.  All of James River's other
comprehensive income relates to net unrealized gains (losses) on
available-for-sale securities.

         Comprehensive income consists of the following for the six months ended
June 30, 1998.



     Net income                               $ 2,421,000

Note 4.  Reclassifications



         Certain amounts in the consolidated  Statements of Income for 1997 have
been reclassified to conform with  classifications  used for 1998. These changes
in classification had no effect on net income or retained earnings.

                  Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis

                of Financial Condition and Results of Operations



         Information  contained  in this Form 10-Q may contain  forward  looking
statements with respect to James River Bankshares,  Inc.'s ("James River" or the
"Company") financial condition and results of operations.  These forward looking
statements  may involve  certain risks and  uncertainties  that may cause actual
results to differ  materially  from those  contemplated  by such forward looking
statements.  Risks and uncertainties that may affect the financial condition and
results of operations of James River  include,  but are not limited to,  general
economic and business conditions,  interest rate fluctuations,  competition from
banks  and  other  financial  service  providers,  new  financial  products  and
services,  risks inherent in making loans including repayment risks and changing
collateral values, changing trends in customer profiles,  technological changes,
and  changes  in  laws  and  regulations  applicable  to  James  River  and  its
subsidiaries.  Although James River believes that its expectations  with respect
to any forward looking  statements are based upon reasonable  assumptions within
the limits of its  knowledge  of its business  and  operations,  there can be no
assurance that actual results will not differ materially from any future results
that may be expressed or implied by forward looking statements.

<PAGE>

respectively.  Average Federal funds purchased  decreased  $971,000 for the same

Non-performing Assets


         Non-performing  assets of James River consist of non-accrual  loans and
property  acquired through  foreclosure or repossession.  Non-performing  assets
totaled  $810,000 on June 30,  1998,  compared to $1.5  million on December  31,
1997. On June 30, 1998,  non-accrual loans totaled  $540,000,  of which $346,000
was secured by real estate.  Non-accrual  loans totaled $897,000 on December 31,
1997,  of which  $647,000  was secured by real  estate.  Foreclosed  real estate
accounted  for $270,000 of  non-performing  assets at June 30, 1998  compared to
$573,000 at December 31, 1997.  Management does not anticipate any material loss
relating to non-performing assets.

         Loans past due 90 days or more and still  accruing  were  $655,000  and
$431,000 on June 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997,  respectively.  Of these loans,
loans secured by real estate  totaled  $426,000 on June 30, 1998 and $233,000 on
December 31, 1997.

         The recorded  investment in impaired  loans  requiring an allowance for
loan losses as determined in accordance  with Statement of Financial  Accounting
Standards ("SFAS") No. 114,  "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan,"
as amended  by SFAS No.  118,  "Accounting  by  Creditors  for  Impairment  of a
Loan-Income  Recognition and  Disclosures," was $1.8 million and $2.0 million at
June 30, 1998, and December 31, 1997, respectively. The portion of the allowance
for loan losses allocated to the impaired loan balance was $370,000 and $423,000
at June 30, 1998, and December 31, 1997, respectively.

         The  allowance  for loan  losses is  maintained  by James River at what
management  considers to be a realistic level consistent with the level and type
of loans,  and taking  into  consideration  the  non-accrual  and past due loans
detailed above. No additional  provisions,  other than ordinary provisions,  are
being made to the allowance for loan losses.

<PAGE>

         James River's allowance for loan losses of $3.6 million was 1.32% of
total loans on June 30, 1998.  On December 31, 1997, the allowance for loan
losses of $3.5 million was 1.31% of total loans.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net Operating Results


         For the  quarter  ended June 30,  1998,  James  River's  net income was
$1,091,000  compared to $908,000 for the same period of 1997, a 20.2%  increase.
Diluted earnings per share in the second quarter increased 20.8% to $.29 in 1998
from $.24 in 1997.  The  increases  in net  income and  earnings  per share were
attributable  to a 5.0% increase in net interest  income and a 47.5% increase in
non-interest income.  Return on average assets and return on average equity were
1.08% and 10.45%,  respectively,  in the second quarter of 1998 compared to .94%
and 9.58% in the comparable period in 1997.

         For the six months  ended June 30, 1998,  James  River's net income was
$2,421,000 compared to $1,784,000 for the same period of 1997, a 35.7% increase.
Diluted  earnings  per share in the first half of 1998  increased  33.3% to $.64
from $.48 in the  comparable  1997  period.  The  increases  in net  income  and
earnings per share were  attributable  to a 5.9% increase in net interest income
and a 76.1% increase in non-interest income. Return on average assets and return
on  average   equity  for  the  first  half  of  1998  were  1.22%  and  11.70%,
respectively, compared to .93% and 9.42% in the comparable period in 1997.


Net Interest Income


         Net interest  income during the quarter  ended June 30, 1998  increased
$194,000 to $4.1  million,  up 5.0% from the $3.9 million for the quarter  ended
June 30,  1997.  The  increase  in net  interest  income  was due  largely to an
increase in loans of $12.1  million  from June 30, 1997 to June 30,  1998.  With
increased volume, interest and fee income on loans increased 4.8% for the second
quarter of 1998 to $6.2 million,  $285,000 more than the $5.9 million  earned in
the same period of 1997. During the second quarter of 1998, income on investment
securities decreased $140,000, or 10.0%, to $1.3 million, compared to the second
quarter of 1997.  Interest  expense  on  deposits  increased  3.8% in the second
quarter  from $3.5  million in 1997 to $3.7 million for the same period in 1998.
The net  interest  margin in the second  quarter of 1998 was 4.48%  compared  to
4.51% in the second quarter of 1997.

         Net interest income during the six months ended June 30, 1998 increased
$448,000 to $8.0 million, up 5.9% from the $7.6 million for the six months ended
June 30,  1997.  Interest and fee income on loans  increased  6.8% for the first
half of 1998 to $12.2  million,  $784,000 more than the $11.4 million  earned in
the same  period  of 1997.  During  the  first  six  months  of 1998,  income on
investment securities decreased $485,000, or 16.4%, to $2.5 million, compared to
the first six months of 1997. Interest expense on deposits increased 3.5% in the
first half from $7.0  million  in 1997 to $7.2  million  for the same  period in
1998.  The net interest  margin in the first half of 1998 was 4.46%  compared to
4.43% in the first half of 1997.

<PAGE>

Provision for Loan Losses

         The  provision  for loan losses  during the quarter ended June 30, 1998
was $84,000,  down $32,000,  or 27.6%,  from the respective period in 1997. This
decrease was due primarily to a recovery at a subsidiary bank.

         The provision for loan losses during the six months ended June 30, 1998
was $227,000,  up $11,000,  or 5.1%,  from the respective  period in 1997.  This
increase  was due  primarily to an increase in total loans for the first half of
1998 of $11.4  million,  or 4.3%, to $275.3  million  compared to $263.9 million
during the first half of 1997.


Non-Interest Income


         For the three  months  ending June 30,  1998,  non-interest  income was
$550,000,  up $177,000, or 47.5%, compared to the respective period in 1997. The
increase was  predominately  attributable  to gains  recognized from the sale of
real estate in the 1998 quarter of $84,000.

         For the six months ending June 30, 1998,  non-interest  income was $1.5
million, up $667,000,  or 76.1%,  compared to the respective period in 1997. The
increase was  predominately  attributable  to gains  recognized from the sale of
equity securities of $439,000 and income recorded from mortgage servicing rights
of $128,000 in the first quarter of 1998. In addition,  in the second quarter of
1998 income recorded from gains on the sale of real estate  contributed  $84,000
to the increase in non-interest income.



Non-Interest Expense



         Non-interest  expense  during  the  second  quarter  of 1998  increased
$87,000,  or 3.0%, to $3.0 million compared with the 1997 quarter.  The increase
was primarily  attributable to a 3.7% increase in personnel expenses, and a 3.9%
increase in other expenses.

         Non-interest  expense  during  the first six  months of 1998  increased
$209,000,  or 3.6%, to $6.0 million  compared with the first six months of 1997.
The  increase  was  primarily  attributable  to a  2.9%  increase  in  personnel
expenses,  and a 6.3%  increase in other  expenses,  due  principally  to higher
professional fees.



LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES


Liquidity and Interest Sensitivity


         Liquidity  represents  an  institution's  ability to meet  present  and
future  financial  obligations  through  either the sale or maturity of existing
assets or the  acquisition  of additional  funds through  liability  management.
Liquid assets include cash, interest bearing deposits with banks,  federal funds
sold,  investments,  and loans  maturing  within one year.  As a result of James
River's  management  of liquid  assets  and the  ability to  generate  liquidity
through  liability  funding,  management  believes  that James  River  maintains
overall  liquidity  sufficient to satisfy its depositors'  requirements and meet
its customers' credit needs.

<PAGE>

         At June 30, 1998,  James River had $48.7  million in  undisbursed  loan
commitments and expects to have sufficient  funds available to meet current loan
origination  commitments.  Funding is  expected  to be in the  normal  course of
business primarily through loan repayments,  prepayments, and deposit growth. As
additional funding, James River holds $86.7 million in investment securities. Of
this amount,  only $10.2 million is classified  as  held-to-maturity  and is not
readily   available   for   sale.   Of   the   $76.5   million   classified   as
available-for-sale,  $8.8  million  matures  in  less  than  one  year,  and  an
additional $40.5 million matures between 1 and 5 years.

         James River has no long-term  debt.  Almost the entire  deposit base is
made up of  core  deposits,  with  only  8.8%  of  total  deposits  composed  of
certificates of deposit of $100,000 and over.


Capital Resources


         Total  shareholders'  equity amounted to $42.2 million at June 30, 1998
compared to $40.4 million at December 31, 1997. James River's leverage ratio was
9.94%,  with a tier 1 risk-based  capital ratio of 16.21% and a total risk-based
capital ratio of 17.46%.


RECENT ACCOUNTING CHANGES

         Financial   Accounting   Standards  Board  (FASB)  Statement  No.  133,
"Accounting for Derivative  Instruments and Hedging  Activities",  was issued in
June 1998.  This Statement  establishes  accounting and reporting  standards for
derivative  instruments,  including certain derivative  information  embedded in
other  contracts,  (collectively  referred  to as  derivatives)  and for hedging
activities.  It requires  that an entity  recognize  all  derivatives  as either
assets or liabilities  in the statement of financial  position and measure those
instruments at fair value.  This Statement is effective for all fiscal  quarters
or fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999.  Although management is currently
studying  this  Statement,  James  River  does  not  expect  this  Statement  to
materially affect its financial condition of results of operations.

         The American Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued Statement
of Position  (SOP) 98-5,  "Reporting  on the Costs of Start-up  Activities",  in
April 1998.  The SOP requires  such costs to be expensed as incurred  instead of
being capitalized and amortized.  It applies to start-up activities and costs of
organization of both development stage and established  operating entities,  and
it changes  existing  practice  for some  industries.  The SOP  broadly  defines
start-up activities as those one-time activities that relate to the opening of a
new facility,  introduction of a new product or service, doing business in a new
territory, initiating a new process in an existing facility, doing business with
a new class of customer or beneficiary,  or commencing  some new operation.  The
SOP is effective  for  financial  statements  for fiscal years  beginning  after
December 15, 1998.  This SOP is not expected to materially  affect James River's
financial condition or results of operations.

YEAR 2000 PROJECT

State of Readiness

         James River and its subsidiaries  have undertaken a variety of measures
to ensure that hardware,  software,  and other date-sensitive  equipment will be
century date compliant. James River has performed an inventory of all equipment,
developed a preliminary impact assessment,  and has obtained certifications from
its vendors for specific product confirmation.  Currently, the Company is in the
testing phase,  with the emphasis placed on "mission  critical"  systems.  James
River has received  year 2000  certification  from the vendor for the  mainframe
hardware and software,  and will continue testing in the  August/September  1998
timeframe. All other applications are moving to the testing phase, with the goal
of December 1998 for completion of all testing within the organization.

         James  River  is  also  dependent  on  numerous   outside  systems  for
processing,  such as: check collections,  Automated  Clearing House,  electronic
funds  transfer,  wire  transfer,  automated  teller  machines,  and credit card
processing.  The  majority of these  outside  systems  are  handled  through the
Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond. Testing of these applications has been
scheduled in the third quarter 1998.

The Costs to Address Year 2000 Issues

         At this stage,  James River has incurred no material  costs  related to
year 2000.  All  research  indicates  that the costs for  meeting  the year 2000
requirements should be relatively insignificant, primarily because James River's
computer  and  network  systems  were  established  in 1996 and were  year  2000
compliant at the time of  installation.  Additional costs related to testing and
software updates are expected to be less than $50,000.

The Risks of Year 2000 Issues

         The primary risk to the Company  regarding year 2000 issues is that the
ability to process  transactions  would be lost due to a  mainframe  hardware or
software  failure.  To  mitigate  this risk,  James  River has begun the testing
phase. With completion of testing scheduled for year-end 1998, James River would
have 1999 to consider options and to remedy any problems.

The Contingency Plan

         James  River is in the  process of  formalizing  its  contingency  plan
should the  mainframe  hardware and software  system not be able to process year
2000 transactions.  James River has considered manual processing of transactions
and is focusing its efforts on the documentation and supplies needed should that
be necessary.  Purchasing  another  system does not appear to be a viable option
because of cost  considerations  and because of requisite  testing.  James River
currently is investigating other contingency options.
