ITEM 1. BUSINESS.

Overview and History

General

HomeTown Bankshares Corporation (the “Company”, “HomeTown Bankshares”) was incorporated in the Commonwealth of Virginia on December 8, 2008. On September 4, 2009, the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of HomeTown Bank in a one for one exchange of stock.

The Company is authorized as a bank holding company. The holding company structure provides greater flexibility than a bank standing alone because it allows expansion and diversification of business activities through subsidiaries or through acquisitions. HomeTown Bankshares Corporation’s business is conducted through its wholly-owned subsidiary, HomeTown Bank.

HomeTown Bank

Hometown Bank (the “Bank”) is a Virginia banking corporation headquartered in Roanoke, Virginia. The Bank was incorporated under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia as a state chartered bank in 2004 and began banking operations in November 2005. The Bank was organized to engage in general retail and commercial banking business.

The Bank opened for business on November 14, 2005 and was capitalized by more than 2,000 shareholders who wanted a new local bank dedicated to customer service. These investors provided the initial customer base and are integral to the success of the Bank. Management believes that the key to the Bank’s success lies in providing Bank customers with personalized service from experienced banking professionals while providing innovative, highly competitive and convenient products and services that meet their banking needs.

The Bank is a community-oriented financial institution that provides varied banking services to individuals, small and medium-sized businesses, and larger companies. The Bank provides a full range of services to meet the financial needs of its customers and strives to provide its customers with innovative products while maintaining the prompt response and the high level of service of a community bank. Management believes this operating strategy has particular appeal in the Bank’s market area. Management believes that the combination of local ownership and size allows the Bank to offer services and products specifically tailored to the needs of the community. The Bank’s Principal Office is located at 202 S. Jefferson Street, Roanoke, Virginia. The Bank also maintains a website at www.hometownbankva.com.

Principal Products of the Bank

The Bank offers a full range of banking services to small and medium-size businesses, real estate investors and developers, private investors, professionals and individuals. In addition to its main office, the Company has full-service offices in Franklin County, Virginia at Westlake, in the town of Christiansburg, Virginia at 2950 Market Street, in Roanoke County, Virginia at the intersection of Colonial Avenue and Virginia Route 419, and in the City of Roanoke, Virginia at 3521 Franklin Road.

Deposit Services . The Bank offers a full range of deposit services that are typically available in most banks, savings banks and credit unions including checking accounts, savings accounts and other time deposits of various types, ranging from daily money market accounts to longer-term certificates of deposit. From the beginning the Bank has focused on convenience, innovation, and value. The transaction accounts and time certificates are tailored to the Bank’s market area at rates competitive to those offered in the area. In addition, the Bank offers its customers Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs). All deposit accounts are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”) up to the maximum amount allowed by law (generally, $250,000 per depositor, subject to aggregation rules). The Bank solicits such accounts from individuals, businesses, and associations and organizations.

The Bank also participates in the Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service (“CDARS”) and Insured Cash Sweep (“ICS”) . CDARS and ICS enable the Bank to offer our deposit customers access to FDIC insurance in amounts exceeding the existing FDIC limit. This permits our institution to better attract and retain large deposits from businesses, nonprofit organizations, individuals and other customers that require an assurance of safety.

Lending Services . The Bank also offers a full range of short-to-medium term commercial and personal loans. Commercial loans include both secured and unsecured loans for working capital (including inventory and receivables), business expansion (including acquisition of real estate and improvements), and purchase of equipment and machinery. Consumer loans and lines of credit include secured and unsecured loans for financing automobiles, home improvements, education and personal investments. Additionally, the Bank originates fixed and floating-rate mortgage loans and real estate construction and acquisition loans.

Consumer Residential Mortgage Origination . The Bank has expanded their residential mortgage origination operations over the last few years. Initially, the Bank originated loans as a representative for mortgage companies. Then, in February, 2012, the Bank opened a dedicated mortgage office, on Colonial Avenue, next to the existing branch office. In 2013 HomeTown Bank entered into a joint venture agreement with a mortgage company as a non-controlling 49% owner of HomeTown Residential Mortgage, LLC. The new entity began operations at the end of 2013, absorbing the Bank’s mortgage office employees and continued working from the Colonial Avenue office. The mortgage office operates under the name HomeTown Mortgage and coordinates the Bank’s existing mortgage services and offers mortgages, refinancing, and other services. Loans originated are conforming home mortgages in its market area, as defined below. As part of the Bank’s overall risk management strategy, loans originated and closed by the mortgage office are pre-sold to major national mortgage banking or financial institutions. In addition to creating customer relationships and the opportunity to sell other products and services, the bank receives fee income for this service.

Investment Services . HomeTown Investments, opened in April 2013, provides diverse investment products and financial advisory services to existing and prospective customers. These products and services provide another source of revenue for the Company. Investment and insurance products and services are offered through an unaffiliated entity Infinex Investments, Inc., Member FINRA/SIPC. HomeTown Investments is a subsidiary of the Bank. Products and services made available through Infinex are not insured by the FDIC or any other agency of the United States and are not deposits or obligations of nor guaranteed or insured by any bank or bank affiliate. These products are subject to investment risk, including the possible loss of value.

Other Services . Other services offered by the Bank include safe deposit boxes, travelers checks, direct deposit of payroll and social security checks, automatic drafts for various accounts, overdraft protection, check cards, credit cards and merchant card services. The Bank also has become associated with a shared network of automated teller machines (ATMs) that may be used by Bank customers throughout the world. The Bank intends to introduce new products and services as permitted by the regulatory authorities or desired by the public. The Bank remains committed to meeting the challenges that require technology. The Bank provides its customers with access to the latest technological products, such as internet banking, including on-line bill pay and mobile banking. The services allow customers to handle routine transactions using the internet at the Bank’s website www.hometownbankva.com or on their mobile phones.

Market Area

The Bank’s market area primarily consists of the City of Roanoke, Roanoke County, and the City of Salem, Virginia and contiguous counties, including Bedford, Franklin and Montgomery, Virginia. Total population in the market area equals approximately 400,000. The area is serviced by one daily newspaper, at least 6 weekly, multi-weekly or bi-weekly newspapers and a number of radio and television stations providing diverse media outlets. The City of Roanoke and Roanoke County, the location of three of the Bank’s offices, has the largest population base, with approximately 190,000 persons. The Roanoke market area is diversified by industry groups with services, retail trade, manufacturing, construction, transportation and utilities, finance, insurance and real estate. Roanoke is a regional center for banking, medicine and the legal and business professional community. Carilion Clinic, Veterans Affairs, Kroger, and HCA Virginia Health System are among Roanoke’s largest private employers. Other major employers are the local school boards, municipal governments, and universities including Virginia Tech, Roanoke College, and Hollins University.

Employees

As of December 31, 2013, the Company had 84 employees, including 83 full-time equivalent employees. None of its employees are represented by any collective bargaining agreements, and relations with employees are considered positive.

Governmental Monetary Policies

The earnings and growth of the Company are affected not only by general economic conditions, but also by the monetary policies of various governmental regulatory authorities, particularly the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Federal Reserve Board”). The Federal Reserve Board implements national monetary policy by its open market operations in United States government securities, control of the discount rate and establishment of reserve requirements against both member and nonmember financial institutions’ deposits. These actions have a significant effect on the overall growth and distribution of loans, investments and deposits, as well as the rates earned on loans, or paid on deposits. Management of the Company is unable to predict the effect of possible significant changes in monetary policies upon the future operating results of the Company.

Competition

The Company competes as a financial intermediary with other commercial banks, savings banks, credit unions, mortgage banking firms, consumer finance companies, securities brokerage firms, insurance companies, money market mutual funds and other financial institutions operating in the Roanoke market area and elsewhere. Many of the Company’s nonbank competitors are not subject to the same extensive federal regulations that govern federally insured banks and state regulations governing state chartered banks. As a result, such nonbank competitors may have certain advantages over the Company in providing certain services.

Virginia law permits statewide branching by banks. Consequently, the Company’s market area is a highly competitive, highly branched banking market. Competition in the market area for loans to individuals, small businesses, and professional concerns, the Company’s target market, is keen, and pricing is important. Most of the Company’s competitors have substantially greater resources and lending limits than the Company and offer certain services, such as extensive and established branch networks and trust services that the Company is not currently providing. Moreover, larger institutions operating in the Roanoke market area have access to borrowed funds at a lower cost than are presently available to the Company. Deposit competition is strong and comes from institutions in the market, U.S. Government securities, private issuers of debt obligations and suppliers of other investment alternatives for depositors, among other sources.

Supervision and Regulation

HomeTown Bankshares Corporation

HomeTown Bankshares is a bank holding company organized under the Federal Bank Holding Company Act of 1956 (“BHCA”), which is administered by the Federal Reserve Board. HomeTown Bankshares is required to file an annual report with the Federal Reserve Board and may be required to furnish additional information pursuant to the BHCA. The Federal Reserve Board is authorized to examine HomeTown Bankshares and its subsidiary.

The Bank Holding Company Act . Under the BHCA, a bank holding company is generally prohibited from engaging in nonbanking activities unless the Federal Reserve Board has found those activities to be incidental to banking. Bank holding companies also may not acquire more than 5% of the voting shares of any company engaged in nonbanking activities. With some limited exceptions, the BHCA requires a bank holding company to obtain prior approval from the Federal Reserve Board before acquiring or merging with a bank or before acquiring more than 5% of the voting shares of a bank unless it already controls a majority of shares.

Virginia State Corporation Commission . All Virginia bank holding companies are required to register with the Virginia State Corporation Commission (the “Commission”). HomeTown Bankshares is required to report to the Commission with respect to financial condition, operations and management. The Commission may also make examinations of any bank holding company and its subsidiaries.

The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act . The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 (“GLBA”) permits significant combinations among different sectors of the financial services industry, allows for expansion of financial service activities by bank holding companies and offers financial privacy protections to consumers. GLBA preempts most state laws that prohibit financial holding companies from engaging in insurance activities. GLBA permits affiliations between banks and securities firms in the same holding company structure, and it permits financial holding companies to directly engage in a broad range of securities and merchant banking activities. HomeTown Bankshares is not a financial holding company.

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act . The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“SOX”) enacted sweeping reforms of the federal securities laws intended to protect investors by improving the accuracy and reliability of corporate disclosures. It impacts all companies with securities registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including HomeTown Bankshares. SOX creates increased responsibilities for chief executive officers and chief financial officers with respect to the content of filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Section 404 of SOX and related Securities and Exchange Commission rules focused increased scrutiny by internal and external auditors on HomeTown Bankshares’s systems of internal controls over financial reporting, which is designed to insure that those internal controls are effective in both design and operation. SOX sets out enhanced requirements for audit committees, including independence and expertise, and it includes stronger requirements for auditor independence and limits the types of non-audit services that auditors can provide. Finally, SOX contains additional and increased civil and criminal penalties for violations of securities laws.

Capital Requirements . The Federal Reserve Board has adopted risk-based capital guidelines that are applicable to HomeTown Bankshares. The guidelines provide that the Company must maintain a minimum ratio of 8% of qualified total capital to risk-weighted assets (including certain off-balance sheet items, such as standby letters of credit). At least half of total capital must be comprised of Tier 1 capital, for a minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of 4%. In addition, the Federal Reserve Board has established minimum leverage ratio guidelines of 4% for banks that meet certain specified criteria. The leverage ratio is the ratio of Tier 1 capital to total average assets, less intangibles. HomeTown Bankshares is expected to be a source of capital strength for its subsidiary bank, and regulators can undertake a number of enforcement actions against HomeTown Bankshares if its subsidiary bank becomes undercapitalized. HomeTown Bankshares’s bank subsidiary is well capitalized and fully in compliance with capital guidelines. However, regulatory capital requirements relate to earnings and asset quality, among other factors. Bank regulators could choose to raise capital requirements for banking organizations beyond current levels.

On July 2, 2013, the Federal Reserve Board of Governors approved the final Basel III risk-based capital rule. This rule aims to improve the quality and quantity of capital for all banking organizations and provides a new regulatory framework for U.S. banking organizations which is consistent with international standards. Community banking organizations first become subject to the final Basel III rule on January 1, 2015. Thereafter begins a phase-in period through January 1, 2019. The new rule implements higher minimum capital requirements and emphasizes the use of common equity through the introduction of a new capital ratio: common equity tier 1 (CET1). In addition, the new rule establishes stricter eligibility for capital instruments included in CET1, and additional tier 1 capital or tier 2 capital. The rule introduces the requirement of a new 2.5% capital conservation buffer, to be phased in beginning on January 1, 2016, and ending on January 1, 2019. Banking organizations without other supervisory issues that wish to distribute capital freely, such as in the payment of dividends for example, must maintain the new capital conservation buffer.

The new rule emphasizes common equity as the preferred capital instrument and limits the inclusion of intangible assets, including mortgage servicing assets and deferred tax assets in the capital of financial institutions. The new capital rule addresses the Dodd-Frank Act prohibition on reliance on external credit ratings specified in the regulations of the federal banking agencies. Consequently, the new capital rule replaces the previous credit-rating-based risk-weighting approach of certain assets with a simplified supervisory formula approach.

Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 . On October 14, 2008, the U. S. Treasury announced the Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP) under the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008. Under the program, the Treasury was authorized to purchase up to $250 billion of senior preferred shares in qualifying U.S. banks, savings and loan associations, and bank and savings and loan holding companies. The amount of TARP funds was later increased to $350 billion.

American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 . The ARRA was enacted in 2009 and includes a wide range of programs to stimulate economic recovery. In addition, it also imposed new executive compensation and corporate governance obligations on TARP Capital Purchase Program recipients. Because HomeTown Bankshares participated in TARP it was required to comply with these requirements.

The Dodd-Frank Act

The financial regulatory reform legislation “Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act” (the Dodd-Frank Act) was signed into law on July 21, 2010. The Dodd-Frank Act implements financial regulatory reform across the entire financial landscape and has far-reaching provisions including among other things:

•

Creates a new agency, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, responsible for implementing, examining and enforcing compliance with federal consumer financial laws for institutions with more than $10 billion of assets and, to a lesser extent, smaller institutions. As a smaller institution, most consumer protection aspects of the Dodd-Frank Act will continue to be applied to the Company by the Federal Reserve Board and to the Bank by the FDIC.

•

Appies the same leverage and risk-based capital requirements that apply to insured depository institutions to most bank holding companies.

•

Changes the assessment base for federal deposit insurance from the amount of insured deposits to consolidated assets less tangible capital, eliminates the ceiling on the size of the Deposit Insurance Fund and increases the floor of the size of the Deposit Insurance Fund.

•

Requires loan originators to retain 5 percent of any loan sold or securitized, unless it is a “qualified residential mortgage”, which must still be defined by the regulators. Federal Housing Administration, Veterans Affairs and Rural Housing Service loans are specifically exempted from the risk retention requirements.

•

Implements corporate governance revisions, including with regard to executive compensation and proxy access by shareholders that apply to all public companies not just financial institutions.

•

Makes permanent the $250,000 limit for federal deposit insurance and increases the cash limit of Securities Investor Protection Corporation protection from $100,000 to $250,000.

•

Repeals the federal prohibitions on the payment of interest on demand deposits, thereby permitting depository institutions to pay interest on business transaction and other accounts.

•

Amends the Electronic Fund Transfer Act (EFTA) to, among other things, give the Federal Reserve the authority to establish rules regarding interchange fees charged for electronic debit transactions by payment card issuers having assets over $10 billion and to enforce a new statutory requirement that such fees be reasonable and proportional to the actual cost of a transaction to the issuer. While the Company is not directly subject to these rules for as long as the Company’s assets do not exceed $10 billion, the Company’s activities as a debit card issuer may be indirectly impacted, potentially requiring the Company to match new lower fee structures implemented by larger financial institutions in order to remain competitive.

The Dodd-Frank Act is the largest piece of financial legislation ever passed, exceeding 2,000 pages in length. Many provisions of the Act are subject to rulemaking and will take effect over several years, making it difficult to anticipate the overall financial impact on the Company, its customers, or the financial industry as a whole. Provisions in the legislation that affect the payment of interest on demand deposits and interchange fees are likely to increase the costs associated with deposits as well as place limitations on certain revenues those deposits may generate.

HomeTown Bank

The Bank is under the supervision of, and subject to regulation and examination by, the Federal Reserve Board and the Bureau of Financial Institutions of the Virginia State Corporation Commission. The Bank is also covered by deposit insurance through the FDIC and is subject to their regulations. As such, the Bank is subject to various statutes and regulations administered by these agencies that govern, among other things, required reserves, investments, loans, lending limits, acquisitions of fixed assets, interest rates payable on deposits, transactions among affiliates and the Bank, the payment of dividends, mergers and consolidations, and establishment of branch offices.

Deposit Insurance . HomeTown Bank has deposits that are insured by the FDIC. The FDIC maintains a Deposit Insurance Fund (“DIF”) that is funded by risk-based insurance premium assessments on insured depository institutions. Assessments are determined based upon several factors, including the level of regulatory capital and the results of regulatory examinations. The FDIC may adjust assessments if the insured institution’s risk profile changes or if the size of the DIF declines in relation to the total amount of insured deposits. It is anticipated that assessments will increase in the future due to the anticipated growth of the Bank.

On April 1, 2011, the deposit insurance assessment base changed from total deposits to average total assets minus average tangible equity, pursuant to a rule issued by the FDIC as required by the Dodd-Frank Act, which also requires the FDIC to increase the reserve ratio of the DIF from 1.15% to 1.35% of insured deposits by 2020 and eliminates the requirement that the FDIC pay dividends to insured depositary institutions when the reserve ratio exceeds certain thresholds.

The Dodd-Frank Act permanently increased the maximum deposit insurance amounts for banks, savings institutions and credit unions to $250,000 per depositor.

Capital Requirements . The same capital requirements that are discussed above with relation to HomeTown Bankshares are applied to HomeTown Bank by the Federal Reserve Board. Federal Reserve Board guidelines provide that banks experiencing internal growth or making acquisitions are expected to maintain strong capital positions well above minimum levels, without reliance on intangible assets. Also, capital requirements can be increased based on earnings and asset quality concerns as well as other issues.

Mergers and Acquisitions . With some limited exceptions, the BHCA requires a bank holding company to obtain prior approval from the Federal Reserve Board before acquiring or merging with a bank or before acquiring more than 5% of the voting shares of a bank unless it already controls a majority of shares. The Riegle-Neal Interstate Banking and Branching Efficiency Act of 1994 authorizes the Federal Reserve Board to permit adequately capitalized and adequately managed bank holding companies to acquire all or substantially all of the assets of an out-of-state bank or bank holding company, subject to certain conditions, including nationwide and state concentration limits. Banks also are able to branch across state lines, provided certain conditions are met, including that applicable state law must expressly permit such interstate branching. Virginia law permits branching across state lines, provided there is reciprocity with the state in which the out-of-state bank is based.

Community Reinvestment Act (“CRA”) . The Company is also subject to the requirements of the CRA. The CRA imposes on financial institutions an affirmative and ongoing obligation to meet the credit needs of their local communities, including low- and moderate-income neighborhoods, consistent with the safe and sound operation of those institutions. Each financial institution’s efforts in meeting community credit needs currently are evaluated as part of the examination process pursuant to a number of assessment factors. These factors also are considered in evaluating mergers, acquisitions and applications to open branches.

Safety and Soundness . The federal banking agencies have broad powers under current federal law to take prompt corrective action to resolve problems of insured depository institutions. The extent of these powers depends upon whether the institutions in question are “well capitalized,” “adequately capitalized,” “undercapitalized,” “significantly undercapitalized,” or “critically undercapitalized,” all such terms are defined under uniform regulations defining such capital levels issued by each of the federal banking agencies.

Activities and Investments of Insured State-Chartered Banks . The activities and equity investments of FDIC insured, state-chartered banks are generally limited to those that are permissible for national banks. Under regulations dealing with equity investments, an insured state bank generally may not directly or indirectly acquire or retain any equity investment of a type, or in an amount, that is not permissible for a national bank. An insured state bank is not prohibited from, among other things, (i) acquiring or retaining a majority interest in a subsidiary, (ii) investing as a limited partner in a limited partnership the sole purpose of which is direct or indirect investment in the acquisition, rehabilitation or new construction of a qualified housing project, provided that such limited partnership investments may not exceed 2% of the bank’s total assets, (iii) acquiring up to 10% of the voting stock of a company that solely provides or reinsures directors’, trustees’ and officers’ liability insurance coverage or bankers’ blanket bond group insurance coverage for insured depository institutions, and (iv) acquiring or retaining the voting shares of a depository institution if certain requirements are met. In addition, an insured state-chartered bank may not, directly, or indirectly through a subsidiary, engage as “principal” in any activity that is not permissible for a national bank unless the FDIC has determined that such activities would pose no risk to the insurance fund of which it is a member and the bank is in compliance with applicable regulatory capital requirements. Any insured state-chartered bank directly or indirectly engaged in any activity that is not permitted for a national bank must cease the impermissible activity.

Regulatory Enforcement Authority . Applicable banking laws include substantial enforcement powers available to federal banking regulators. This enforcement authority includes, among other things, the ability to assess civil money penalties, to issue cease-and-desist or removal orders and to initiate injunctive actions against banking organizations and institution-affiliated parties. In general, these enforcement actions may be initiated for violations of laws and regulations and unsafe or unsound practices. Other actions or inactions, including the filing of misleading or untimely reports with regulatory authorities, may provide the basis for enforcement action.

USA Patriot Act . The USA Patriot Act became effective on October 26, 2001 , and provides for the facilitation of information sharing among governmental entities and financial institutions for the purpose of combating terrorism and money laundering. Among other provisions, the USA Patriot Act permits financial institutions, upon providing notice to the United States Treasury, to share information with one another in order to better identify and report to the federal government concerning activities that may involve money laundering or terrorists’ activities. Interim rules implementing the USA Patriot Act were issued effective March 4, 2002. The USA Patriot Act is considered a significant banking law in terms of information disclosure regarding certain customer transactions.

Consumer Laws and Regulations . There are a number of laws and regulations that regulate banks’ consumer loan and deposit transactions. Among these are the Truth in Lending Act, the Truth in Savings Act, the Expedited Funds Availability Act, the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, the Fair Housing Act, the Fair Credit Reporting Act, and the Fair Debt Collections Practices Act. HomeTown Bank is required to comply with these laws and regulations in its dealing with customers.

The Downtown Office . The Bank leases certain space located at 202 S. Jefferson Street, Roanoke, Virginia. The lease is for a period of 10 years, 11 months from January 31, 2005 with options to renew the lease for two periods of five years. The Downtown Branch opened on November 14, 2005.

The Smith Mountain Lake Office . The Bank purchased the Smith Mountain Lake branch on February 14, 2006 and received regulatory approval and opened the office on May 8, 2006.

The Colonial Avenue at 419 Office . The Bank purchased the property for the Colonial Avenue at 419 office on August 31, 2006 and received regulatory approval and opened the Colonial Avenue at 419 Branch on March 22, 2007. In February, 2012, the Bank opened a dedicated mortgage office, on Colonial Avenue, next to the existing branch office.

The South Roanoke Office . The Bank leases real property and improvements thereto located at 3521 Franklin Road, Roanoke, Virginia. The Bank received regulatory approval and opened a branch at this location on July 9, 2007. The initial lease was for a period of five years from August 1, 2006. The Bank exercised the option to renew for another five years beginning August 1, 2011. The Bank has one remaining option to renew for another period of five years.

The Christiansburg Office . The Bank purchased property at 2950 Market Street, Christiansburg on May 26, 2010. The Bank broke ground in December 2012 on a new 9,000 square foot branch. At the end of 2013 the Bank relocated their New River Valley branch operations and mortgage and administrative operations to the new building. The larger facility enables the Bank to meet the growing needs of its customers in the New River Valley and to attract new business. This office operates under the name “NewRiver Bank, a branch of HomeTown Bank”. The Bank began operations in the New River Valley Market in 2008. The leases for the previous locations, at 1540 Roanoke Street and 1655 Roanoke Street, Christiansburg, expired in 2013.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain information contained in this discussion may include “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21 E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These forward-looking statements are generally identified by phrases such as “we expect,” “we believe” or words of similar import. Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks including, but not limited to, the following factors:

•

the ability to successfully manage the Company’s growth or implement its growth strategies if it is unable to identify attractive markets, locations or opportunities to expand in the future;

•

reliance on the Company’s management team, including its ability to attract and retain key personnel;

•

interest rate fluctuations;

•

maintaining capital levels adequate to support the Company’s growth;

•

risk inherent in making loans such as repayment risks and fluctuating collateral values;

•

the ability to attract low cost core deposits to fund asset growth;

•

changes in laws and regulations applicable to us;

•

changes in general economic and business conditions;

•

competition within and from outside the banking industry;

•

problems with our technology;

•

changing trends in customer profiles and behavior; and

•

new products and services in the banking industry.

Although the Company’s management believes that its expectations with respect to the forward-looking statements are based upon reliable assumptions within the bounds of management’s knowledge of the Company’s business and operations, there can be no assurance that actual results, performance or achievements of the Company will not differ materially from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.

Critical Accounting Policies

The financial condition and results of operations presented in the consolidated financial statements, accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements and management’s discussion and analysis are, to a large degree, dependent upon the Company’s accounting policies. The selection and application of these accounting policies involves judgments, estimates, and uncertainties that are susceptible to change.

Presented below is discussion of those accounting policies that management believes are the most important accounting policies to the portrayal and understanding of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. These critical accounting policies require management’s most difficult, subjective and complex judgments about matters that are inherently uncertain. In the event that different assumptions or conditions were to prevail, and depending upon the severity of such changes, the possibility of materially different financial condition or results of operations is a reasonable likelihood. See also Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Management monitors and maintains an allowance for loan losses to absorb an estimate of probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio. Management maintains policies and procedures that address the systems of controls over the following areas of maintenance of the allowance: the systematic methodology used to determine the appropriate level of the allowance to provide assurance they are maintained in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; the accounting policies for loan charge-offs and recoveries; the assessment and measurement of impairment in the loan portfolio; and the loan grading system.

Management evaluates various loans individually for impairment. Loans evaluated individually for impairment include non-performing loans, such as loans on non-accrual, loans past due by 90 days or more, restructured loans and other loans selected by management. The evaluations are based upon discounted expected cash flows or collateral valuations. If the evaluation shows that a loan is individually impaired, then a specific reserve is established for the amount of impairment.

For loans without individual measures of impairment, we make estimates of losses for groups of loans grouped by similar characteristics, including the type of loan, the assigned loan classification and the general collateral type. A loss rate reflecting the expected loss inherent in a group of loans is derived based upon estimates of default rates for a given loan grade, the predominant collateral type for the group and the terms of the loan. The resulting estimate of losses for groups of loans is adjusted for relevant environmental factors and other conditions of the portfolio of loans, including: borrower and industry concentrations; levels and trends in delinquencies, charge-offs and recoveries; changes in underwriting standards and risk selection; level of experience, ability and depth of lending management; and national and local economic conditions.

The amount of estimated impairment for individually evaluated loans and groups of loans is added together for a total estimate of loan losses. This estimate of losses is compared to our allowance for loan losses as of the evaluation date and, if the estimate of losses is greater than the allowance, an additional provision to the allowance would be made. If the estimate of losses is less than the allowance, the degree to which the allowance exceeds the estimate is evaluated to determine whether the allowance falls outside a range of estimates. If the estimate of losses is below the range of reasonable estimates, the allowance would be reduced by way of a credit to the provision for loan losses. Management recognizes the inherent imprecision in estimates of losses due to various uncertainties and variability related to the factors used, and therefore a reasonable range around the estimate of losses is derived and used to ascertain whether the allowance is too high. If different assumptions or conditions were to prevail and it is determined that the allowance is not adequate to absorb the new estimate of probable losses, an additional provision for loan losses would be made, which amount may be material to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

General

Management’s discussion and analysis is intended to assist the reader in evaluating and understanding the financial condition and results of operations of the Company and the Bank as of and for the years ending December 31, 2013 and 2012. This discussion should be read in connection with the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements and the accompanying Notes thereto included in this Form 10-K.

The Company initiated its banking operations through the Bank, on November 14, 2005 with the opening of its main office at 202 S. Jefferson Street, Roanoke, Virginia. The Bank has experienced consistent growth over the last eight years.

The Business

HomeTown Bank provides a full complement of consumer and commercial banking services to its primary service area which includes the City of Roanoke, Roanoke County, and the City of Salem, Virginia and contiguous counties, including Bedford, Franklin and Montgomery, Virginia. We place an emphasis on personal service and offer a broad range of commercial and retail banking products and services including checking, savings and time deposits, individual retirement accounts, residential and commercial mortgages, home equity loans, consumer installment loans, commercial loans, lines and letters of credit.

The Bank currently operates five deposit offices, two stand-alone 24-hour ATM’s, and one mortgage office. In addition to its main office, the Bank has branch offices in Franklin County, Virginia at Westlake; in Roanoke County at the intersection of Colonial Avenue and Virginia Route 419; in Roanoke City on Franklin Road in South Roanoke. The Bank operates under the name NewRiver Bank, a branch of HomeTown Bank in the New River Valley market, on Market Street in Christiansburg.

The Company operates in a highly competitive market for commercial banking and financial services as the Roanoke Valley is a banking and financial services hub for much of southwest Virginia.

Discussion of Results of Operations

Overview of Results of Operations

Net income for 2013 was $2.7 million or $0.48 per diluted common share compared to $4.6 million or $1.22 per diluted common share for same period last year. Net income was less because 2012 included a one-time favorable adjustment of $2.9 million or $0.90 per diluted share for the recognition of cumulative net deferred tax assets since inception through year end 2011. Net income before taxes was $4.1 million for 2013, $1.5 million or 61.3% higher than 2012. A strong net interest margin coupled with continued control of non-interest expenses and improved asset quality contributed to record earnings before taxes.

Summary of Financial Condition

Total assets increased $32.0 million or 8.6% from $370.5 million at December 31, 2012 to $402.4 million at the end of 2013. Loan growth, net of the allowance for loan losses, accounted for $23.1 million or 72.1% of the total increase in assets. Signs of an improving economy which began in 2012 continued in 2013, fueling loan demand, particularly from the commercial sector. Unemployment rates, while improved, remain above levels that are considered to be sustainable in the long run, and continue to hamper the speed and depth of economic recovery. The higher volume of loans was primarily funded by deposit growth.

Cash and due from banks was $19.5 million at December 31, 2013, up $9.7 million from year end 2012. The fluctuation was driven primarily by a temporary in flow of commercial demand deposits at the end of 2013, and an additional $3.0 million borrowed from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta (FHLB) during the last few days of December. The funds were borrowed to guard against a possible last day of the year out flow of deposits similar to what happened in 2012. As the borrowed funds were not needed they were repaid in early 2014.

In 2012, yields on securities available for purchase declined, and the Company began and has continued to channel cash flow from lower rate investments in bonds to higher rate loans. The portfolio of securities available for sale was strategically reduced $5.5 million during 2013 to $57.9 million at year end.

Property and equipment, net was $12.2 million at December 31, 2013, an increase of $2.4 million from the end of the prior year. The increase was the result of the relocation of the Christiansburg branch to its new 9,000 square foot facility in the fourth quarter of 2013, enabling the branch to better serve existing customers and to expand business in the New River Valley in the future.

Bank owned life insurance policies were purchased in 2013 for $3.5 million to fund a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan for certain key executives. This benefit is discussed in more depth in Note 13 of this report.

Total liabilities at December 31, 2013 were $362.9 million, compared to $333.7 million at the end of 2012. Total deposits, the primary component of total liabilities, were $339.8 million at December 31, 2013, an increase of $29.8 million or 9.6%, from $310.0 million at December 31, 2012. Noninterest bearing deposits accounted for $13.6 million of the total increase in deposits. Because of the low interest rate environment over the past few years, demand deposits at commercial banks have grown at unprecedented rate; this trend is expected to reverse itself as shorter term rates begin to rise.

Stockholders’ equity was $39.5 million at December 31, 2013, $2.8 million or 7.7% above the $36.7 million at December 31, 2012. Management believes the Company has sufficient capital to fund its operations while the Company strives to generate profits on a consistent basis, but there can be no assurance that this will be the case.

At December 31, 2013, the Company was in compliance with all regulatory capital requirements. Management believes that the Company has sufficient liquidity on a short-term basis to meet any funding needs it may have, and expects that its long term liquidity needs can be achieved through deposit growth, however there can be no assurance that such growth will develop. The Company has multiple credit lines available as an alternative source of funding.

Non-performing Assets

Non-performing assets consist of nonaccrual loans, restructured loans, and repossessed and foreclosed assets. Following is a breakdown of non-performing assets:

(Dollars in thousands)	2013		2012		2011		2010		2009

Total nonperforming assets, including restructured loans	$	15,410	$	18,170	$	19,962	$	8,594	$	5,185

The five year trend of non-performing assets reflects the economic crisis which began in 2008 and the subsequent improvement in the economy. The impact of the economic slowdown on the level of non-performing loans and foreclosures peaked in 2010 and 2011, respectively. The Company aggressively pursed troubled loans and foreclosed properties, and the economy began to show signs of improvement in 2011. The economy continued to improve in 2012 and into 2013, although the employment rate remains below the longer-run normal rate of employment.

Asset quality has improved as indicated by the decline in non-performing loans. Of the $989 thousand of non-accruing loans at the end of 2013, $878 thousand were new loans added to non-accruing status during the year. The $2.7 million of non-accruing loans at December 31, 2012 included $2.3 million of new loans added to non-accruing status during the year. Of the $2.7 million of non-accrual loans at the end of 2012, $1.9 million were paid off, $380 thousand were charged-off and $263 thousand were foreclosed during 2013. The $989 thousand of non-accrual loans at December 31, 2013 included $809 thousand of loans classified as impaired. Impaired loans are evaluated periodically on an individual basis, and if appropriate losses, are recorded in the period incurred as provision for loan losses on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

See also Note 5 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for information on changes in other real estate and for the major classifications of other real estate for 2013 compared to 2012.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses is increased by charges to income and decreased by charge-offs, net of recoveries. Management’s periodic evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance is based on the Company’s past loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral, and current economic conditions. The relationship between the provision and the allowance is discussed in more depth under Provision and Allowance for Loan Losses.

Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin

The primary source of the Company’s revenue is net interest income, which represents the difference between interest income on earning assets and interest expense on liabilities used to fund those assets. Earning assets include loans, securities, interest bearing bank certificates of deposit and federal funds sold. Interest bearing liabilities include deposits and borrowings. The amount of net interest income is primarily dependent upon the volume and mix of these earning assets and interest bearing liabilities. Interest rate changes can also impact the amount of net interest income. Management develops pricing and marketing strategies to maximize net interest income while maintaining related assets and liabilities accounts within guideline policies as established by the Company’s Board of Directors.

The net interest margin represents net interest income divided by average earning assets. It reflects the average effective rate that the Company earned on its earning assets. The net interest margin is affected by changes in both average interest rates and average volumes of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities.

Net interest income increased $928 thousand or 7.2% to $13.8 million in 2013, from $12.9 million in 2012, while the net interest margin rose 10 basis points to 3.92% for 2013 compared to 3.82% for the prior year. The expansion of the volume of average earning assets by $17.4 million was the main contributor to higher net interest income. In 2012, yields on securities available for purchase declined, and the Company began and has continued to channel cash flow from lower rate investments in bonds to higher rate loans resulting in a more favorable mix of earning assets. Average loans as a percent of average earning assets were 80.0% for 2013 compared to 77.1% for 2012. The source for most of the funding of loan growth was deposits. Average interest bearing liabilities increased $4.1 million or 1.4% for 2013 compared to 2012, while average noninterest bearing demand deposits rose $8.4 million or 27.5% during the same period. Because of the low interest rate environment over the past few years, demand deposits at commercial banks have grown at an unprecedented rate; this trend is expected to reverse itself as shorter term rates rise.

The cost of interest bearing liabilities declined more than the tax equivalent yield on earning assets, resulting in an 8 basis points improvement in the interest rate spread for 2013 and the 10 basis point rise in the net interest margin. The increase in non-interest-bearing deposits for the twelve months ended December 31, 2013, accompanied by lower funding costs throughout the year, were the primary contributors to the improved net interest margin. The full impact of the steady reduction during 2012 of the rates paid on deposit products to be more in line with market rates was realized in 2013. There were few additional downward adjustments of rates in 2013. Management does not expect any additional downward adjustments in 2014, and in fact rates paid on deposits products may rise in the coming months in keeping with market changes. Much of the money from maturing consumer time deposits was moved to more liquid deposit products or into other non-bank deposit products. Management continued to increase the utilization of attractively priced brokered deposits as a funding source. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, brokered deposits totaled $37.0 million and $35.9 million, respectively, and are included in interest-bearing time deposits.

The Federal Reserve has bought bonds over the last several years which have artificially kept interest rates down in an attempt to foster economic growth. In mid-2013, ten year Treasury rates increased when the Federal Reserve’s monetary policy committee began discussing tapering the bond purchasing program by about $10 billion per month, eventually phasing out the asset purchasing program altogether by the end of the year. The markets had already anticipated the tapering of bond purchases by $10 billion per month in December, when bond purchases stood at $85 billion per month. At the March 19, 2014 meeting the Fed reduced the bond purchase program by another $10 billion, from $65 to $55 billion per month. The Fed’s Summary of Economic Projectons revealed a quicker and faster increase in short term rates than was expected by the markets, moving the yield curve upwards once more. Following the release, the 10-year Treasury yield rose 5 basis points and the 5-year Treasury yield increased 9 basis points. Management anticipates some compression of the interest rate spread resulting in a decline of the interest rate margin as funds move from non-interest bearing deposits to more attractive alternatives.

The following table illustrates average balances of total interest-earning assets and total interest bearing liabilities for 2013, 2012 and 2011, showing the average distribution of assets, liabilities, shareholders’ equity and related income, expense and corresponding weighted-average yields and rates. The average balances used in these tables and other statistical data were calculated using daily average balances.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income includes service charges on deposit accounts, ATM and interchange income, brokerage fees on non-portfolio mortgage loans, gains on securities sales, and rental income. Noninterest income increased $42 thousand or 3% for the year 2013 compared to the prior year. Increases in service charges on deposit accounts by $31 thousand and ATM and interchange income by $79 thousand were the result of the expansion of the core deposit base. Mortgage loan brokerage fees were $86 thousand or 23% less than the prior year, due to a softer mortgage market during the second half of 2013.

Noninterest Expense

Non-interest expense includes, among other things, salaries and benefits, occupancy costs, advertising and marketing, FDIC insurance, professional fees, depreciation, data processing, communications and miscellaneous expenses. Total noninterest expense increased $707 thousand or 6.8%, to $11.1 million in 2013. The Company’s management and staff monitor and control operating expenses to provide adequate operational support and enable growth opportunities.

Salaries and employee benefits increased $348 thousand or 7.1% for 2013 compared to 2012. Due to the Company’s improved financial performance in 2013 compared to 2012, employee incentive plan awards accrued were higher than in 2012. Cost of living and merit increases along with staff additions as the Company expanded mortgage and brokerage operations, further contributed to higher salaries and employee benefits in the year ended December 31, 2013. Salaries and employee benefits expense includes non-cash expense for stock based compensation of $36 thousand and $29 thousand in 2013 and 2012, respectively. See Part II, Item 8, Note 12 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information.

Discretionary spending on advertising and marketing was $65 thousand or 17% higher in 2013 than 2012. The Company began a customer acquisition program early in the year, which increased the number of deposit customers which resulted in higher fee income.

Of the $115 thousand or 34% increase in professional fees during 2013 compared to the prior year, over $50 thousand was associated with legal fees incurred that resulted in the recovery of $211 thousand of a loan charged off in a prior year, and the full recovery of $88 thousand for a loan charged off this year.

Bank franchise taxes increased $66 thousand or 48% for 2013 compared to 2012, due primarily to higher Bank capital at the end of 2012 on which 2013 taxes were based; compared to the Bank’s capital at the end of 2011, which was the basis for 2012 taxes. On January 1, 2012, the Company recognized a deferred tax asset of $2.9 million, which increased capital by the same amount causing much of the increase in bank franchise taxes in 2013 as compared to 2012.

Other expense includes gains and losses on the disposals of fixed assets. The year 2013 includes $120 thousand of write-offs from the disposal of fixed assets in the form of leasehold improvements and furniture and fixtures associated with the move from two leased branches to a single owned new branch in Christiansburg.

The total of other real estate owned was less at the end of 2013 as compared to the end of 2012, resulting in lower carrying costs, as reflected in the $64 thousand or 20% decrease in other real estate owned expense.

Income Tax Expense

Effective January 1, 2012, the Company recognized deferred tax assets resulting in an income tax benefit of $2.9 million related to years prior to 2012, and began recording tax expense on current period income before taxes. See Note 14 Income Taxes for a breakdown of current and deferred taxes and detail of the net deferred tax asset at the end of both years. The Company has operating loss carryforwards of $889 thousand for federal income tax purposes that may be used to offset future taxable income, and expects to use the remaining balance in 2014. If not previously utilized, the federal loss carryforwards will begin to expire in 2025.

Loans

Our primary source of income is our lending activities. The following table presents the composition of the Company’s loan portfolio at the dates indicated:

Total loans	$	297,933	$	274,937	$	249,079	$	264,106	$	252,669

As with most community banks, the loan portfolio is concentrated in commercial real estate loans, and comprised 42.3% and 39.8% of the total loan portfolio at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. At year-end 2013, there were no industry concentrations with outstanding balances representing 10% or more of total loans. As the economy improved over the last year, loan demand has increased for commercial real estate financing.

Maturities of Loans at December 31, 2013 are as follows:

(Dollars in Thousands)	Fixed Rate		Adjustable Rate		Total
Construction loans Maturing:
Within one year	$	7,136	$	5,561	$	12,697

Total	$	20,018	$	22,137	$	42,155

Provision and Allowance for Loan Losses

The provision for loan losses is based upon management’s estimate of the amount needed to maintain the allowance for loan losses at an adequate level to cover known and inherent risk of loss in the loan portfolio. The provision for loan losses was $125 thousand for the 2013 compared to $1.4 million for the previous year. Recoveries of $381 thousand in 2013 replenished the allowance for loan losses and lowered the amount of provision expense. During the twelve months ended December 31, 2012, $1.6 million of loans were charged off compared to $575 thousand for the twelve months ended December 31, 2013.

Improvements in loan quality also contributed to a lower provision. Total past due loans declined $1.5 million or 48% to $1.6 million from year end 2012 to year end 2013. Nonaccrual loans decreased $1.7 million or 63% to $989 thousand during the same period. Loans classified as special mention and substandard were also less at December 31, 2013 than on the same day in 2012. Pass loans as a percent of total loans rose from 93.6% at December 31, 2012 to 95.9% at December 31, 2013.

Management classifies loans as impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Loans classified as impaired declined $3.6 million or 23% from year end 2013 to a total of $12.0 million at the end of 2012. The reserves related to impaired loans were $173 thousand and $208 thousand at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

The adequacy of general reserves is determined by dividing the remaining loan portfolio into 30 homogenous pools, each with its unique degree of inherent risk and applying a loss factor to each pool of loans. In determining the loss factor for each pool of homogenous loans the following factors are considered: net charge-offs, underlying collateral, lending policies and underwriting practices, economic conditions, management experience, quality of loan review and oversight, effects of external competition and regulation, loan pool concentrations, loan pool volume, past due and non-accrual loans and classified loans.

Management considers economic information in determining the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. The local markets are largely shielded from national events and trends, but do tend to realize lagging effects in subsequent quarters. The Bank increased the factor used in the analysis of the level of the allowance for loan losses in the third quarter of 2013 in the wake of the government shutdown. The true cost of the government shutdown may never be accurately known or measured, but it is likely our local markets will realize some form of negative impact in the coming year(s).

The most recent economic activity report, dated March 5, 2014 from the Federal Reserve (the Beige Book), indicated that economic activity continued to expand at a modest to moderate pace during the reporting period from January to early February, 2014. The Federal Reserve Bank’s Fifth District labor markets were mixed in recent weeks, as extreme weather affected production and services. Based on the Bureau of Labor Statistics data, unemployment rates for the Roanoke, VA Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) showed positive trends during 2013. Unemployment rates dropped from a January 2013 level of 6.4% to 4.9% for December 2013. January 2014 increased to 5.6%, still below the unemployment rate for the same period a year ago. The uptick in January is largely attributed to seasonal factors and bad weather. According to the Roanoke Valley Association of Realtors statistics, home sales for each month of 2013 were higher than the same month in 2012. The Bank has maintained a cautiously optimistic view to the expansion of the economy and has taken a “wait and see” position. Should the economy change, the Bank will look to adjust the factors in future quarter analysis. The economic information continues to be mostly positive in nature.

The following table presents an analysis of the changes in the allowance for loan losses for the periods indicated.

Asset Quality

Interest is accrued on outstanding loan principal balances, unless the Company considers collection to be doubtful. Commercial and unsecured consumer loans are designated as non-accrual when payment is delinquent 90 days or at the point which the Company considers collection doubtful, if earlier. Consumer mortgage loans and most other types of consumer loans past due 90 days or more may remain on accrual status if management determines that concern over our ability to collect principal and interest is not significant. When loans are placed in non-accrual status, previously accrued and unpaid interest is reversed against interest income in the current period and interest is subsequently recognized only to the extent cash is received and if principal repayment is probable. Interest accruals are resumed on such loans only when in the judgment of management, the loans are estimated to be fully collectible as to both principal and interest.

As of December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company had $989 thousand and $2.7 million, respectively, in non-performing loans, comprised entirely of non-accrual loans.

Investment Portfolio

At December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 all of the Company’s securities were classified as available-for-sale. The composition of the investment portfolio for the years ending December 31, 2013 and 2012 appear in Note 2 of this report. The following table presents the composition of the investment portfolio as of December 31, 2011.

The Company began recording income tax expense in 2012, based on an assessment of the Company’s profitable operations over the preceding quarters and projections of future taxable income. Able to now realize the associated tax benefit from investing in non-taxable municipal securities, the Company has restructured the portfolio to take advantage of this favorable income tax treatment.

Deposits

The Company’s primary source of funds is deposit accounts. The Company’s deposit base is comprised of demand deposits, savings and money market accounts, and time deposits. The Company’s deposits are provided primarily by individuals and businesses located in the Company’s market area. The Company is a member of the Promontory Financial Network and uses its CDARS and ICS programs to provide FDIC deposit insurance coverage for certificates of deposit or demand deposits in excess of $250 thousand, when requested by customers.

Total deposits increased by $29.8 million or 9.6% from $310.0 million at December 31, 2012 to $339.8 million at December 31, 2013. The Company’s ability to attract and retain deposits, and our cost of funds, has been, and will continue to be, significantly affected by market conditions.

Liquidity and Interest Rate Sensitivity

Liquidity is identified as the ability to generate or acquire sufficient amounts of cash when needed and at a reasonable cost to accommodate withdrawals, payments of debt, and increased loan demand. Liquid assets include cash, federal funds sold, securities classified as available for sale as well as loans and securities maturing within one year. As a result of the Company’s management of liquid assets and the ability to generate liquidity through liability funding, management believes the Company maintains overall liquidity sufficient to satisfy its depositors’ requirements and meet its customers’ credit needs.

The Company’s management, under the direction of the Asset/Liability Committee of the Board of Directors, reviews the mix of monetary assets and liabilities to ensure the Company maintains an adequate level of liquidity at all times. This ensures that the Company’s sources of funds, primarily net fluctuations in customer deposits, investments, securities and correspondent banking relationships, must be balanced with the Company’s obligations, commitments, and operational requirements, to maintain overall liquidity in conjunction with the maximization of interest rate spreads.

The Company’s asset based liquidity position, cash and due from bank balances, federal funds sold and securities available for sale, net of securities pledged and cash balance requirements totaled $63.1million at December 31, 2013, compared to $54.2 million at December 31, 2012.

The Company’s primary source of funding is its retail deposit base. The Company aggressively markets in its trade area and seeks demand deposits through service-related tactics and savings deposits through competitive pricing tactics. If this funding source is not attractive either for reasons of maturity or pricing, alternative funding sources include Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) advances, brokered deposits, fed funds purchased and guidance lines of credit. The Company is approved to borrow 20% of our total assets from the FHLB subject to providing qualifying collateral. At December 31, 2013, the Company had borrowed $22.0 million of the $33.0 million of lendable collateral value, leaving $11.0 million of unused credit immediately available. The Company also has an $8 million guidance line of credit to borrow against securities. The limit on this line is 15% of assets. In addition, the Company had $19.0 million of fed funds lines of credit available at the end of 2013. At December 31, 2013, there were no advances on the fed funds or guidance lines.

At December 31, 2013, the Company had commitments to originate $19.2 million of loans. Certificates of deposit scheduled to mature in the 12 month period ending December 31, 2014 total $82.0 million. As rates creep upwards, the Company will have to pay higher rates to retain a portion of these maturing funds.

A financial institution can be exposed to several market risks that may impact its value or future earnings capacity. These risks include interest rate risk, foreign currency exchange risk, commodity price risk and equity market price risk. Our primary market risk is interest rate risk. Interest rate risk is inherent, because as a financial institution, we derive a significant amount of our operating revenue from customer deposits and possible borrowings at various terms and rates. These funds are then invested into earning assets (loans and investments) at various terms and rates.

Interest rate risk is the exposure to fluctuations in our future earnings (earnings at risk) and value (value at risk) resulting from changes in interest rates. This exposure results from differences between the amounts of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities that reprice within a specific time period as a result of scheduled maturities and repayment and contractual interest rate changes.

Interest rate sensitivity at December 31, 2013 is summarized in the table below

	Interest Rate Sensitivity
Rate Shock	Net Interest Income (NII)	NII Change from Level
+400	15,014	4%
+300	14,702	2%
+200	14,403	0%
+100	14,256	-1%
Level	14,390
-100	14,380	0%
-200	14,305	-1%
-300	14,236	-1%

The shifts in net interest income due to rate shocks are all within our policy limits. The floors on the equity lines and the business lines of credit keep the rates on these loans from increasing until rates increase high enough to exceed the floors. In the meantime, rates on deposits begin to increase as rates increase. This is why we are seeing a slight drop in net interest income with rate shocks of 100 and the margin recovers to the original level at the 200 basis point shock, and increases at the 300 and 400 basis point.

The primary objective of our asset/liability management process is to maximize current and future net interest income within acceptable levels of interest rate risk while satisfying liquidity and capital requirements. Management recognizes that a certain amount of interest rate risk is inherent and appropriate. The goal is to maintain a balance between risk and reward such that net interest income is maximized while risk is maintained at an acceptable level.

Management strives to control the exposure to interest rate volatility and operates under policies and guidelines established by the Board of Directors, who set the level of acceptable risk, by understanding, reviewing and making decisions based on our risk position. In addition, pricing, promotion and product development activities are assessed in an effort to emphasize the loan and deposit term or repricing characteristics that best meet current interest risk objectives. We use a variety of analytical systems and balance sheet tools to manage interest rate risk.

Capital Resources

To enable future growth of the Company, there must be an adequate level of capital. Management reviews the Company’s capital to ensure that the amount, composition and quality of the Company’s assets and liabilities satisfy regulatory requirements, meet or exceed industry standards, and support projected Company growth.

At December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company had stockholders’ equity of $39.5 million and $36.7 million, respectively, an increase of $2.8 million or 7.7%. With the Company’s $14 million capital raise that closed on June 28, 2013, $10.4 million of the proceeds were used to redeem its Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series A and Series B, originally issued to the U.S. Department of the Treasury under the Troubled Asset Relief Program Capital Purchase Program (TARP) in the third quarter of 2009. The dividend rate paid on the $10 million of Series A shares would have increased from 5% to 9% per annum in 2014. The newly issued convertible preferred shares pay dividends at the rate of 6% per year. Each share of Series C preferred stock is convertible into 160 shares of common stock. The capital ratios improved, accordingly, and remained well above regulatory standards for well-capitalized banks through year end 2013. The change in Tier 1 Capital in 2013 was mainly the result of the $3.1 million of residual funds from the capital raise and 2013’s net income of $2.7 million, partially offset by the payment of $848 thousand of dividends on preferred shares during the year.

Financial Instruments with off Balance Sheet Risk and Contractual Obligations and Other Commitments

The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers and to reduce its own exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. These instruments involve elements of credit risk and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheets. The contractual amounts of these instruments reflect the extent of the Company’s involvement 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 instruments for commitments to extend credit and letters of credit written is represented by the contractual amount of these instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments.

Note 1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Organization

On September 4, 2009, HomeTown Bankshares Corporation (the “Company”) acquired all outstanding stock of HomeTown Bank (the “Bank”) in an exchange for shares of the Company on a one-for-one basis to become a single-bank holding company with the Bank becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary. The Bank was organized and incorporated under the laws of the State of Virginia on November 9, 2004 and commenced operations on November 14, 2005. The Bank currently serves Roanoke City, Virginia, the County of Roanoke, Virginia, the City of Salem, Virginia, Christiansburg, Virginia, and surrounding areas. As a state chartered bank which is a member of the Federal Reserve System, the Bank is subject to regulation by the Virginia Bureau of Financial Institutions, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and the Federal Reserve Board.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The following is a description of the significant accounting and reporting policies the Company follows in preparing and presenting its consolidated financial statements.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of HomeTown Bankshares Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiary HomeTown Bank. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

In preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated balance sheet and 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 in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, the valuation of other real estate owned, and the valuation of deferred tax assets. Substantially all of the Company’s loan portfolio consists of loans in its market area. Accordingly, the ultimate collectability of a substantial portion of the Company’s loan portfolio and the recovery of a substantial portion of the carrying amount of foreclosed real estate (as applicable) is susceptible to changes in local market conditions.

Subsequent Events

In preparing these financial statements the Company has evaluated events and transactions for potential recognition of disclosure through the date the financials were issued.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and amounts due from correspondent banks. For the purpose of presentation in the consolidated statements of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents are defined as those amounts included in the consolidated balance sheet caption “cash and due from banks”.

Securities

Investments in debt and equity securities with readily determinable fair values are classified as either held to maturity, available for sale, or trading, based on management’s intent. Currently, all of the Company’s investment securities are classified as available for sale. Available for sale securities are carried at estimated fair value with the corresponding unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported in other comprehensive income. Gains or losses are recognized in earnings on the trade date using the amortized cost of the specific security sold. Purchase premiums and discounts are recognized in interest income using the interest method over the terms of the securities.

Impairment of securities occurs when the fair value of a security is less than its amortized cost. For debt securities, impairment is considered other-than-temporary and recognized in its entirety in net income if either (i) the Company intends to sell the security or (ii) it is more-likely-than-not that the Company will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If, however, the Company does not intend to sell the security and it is not likely that it will be required to sell the security before recovery, the Company must determine what portion of the impairment is attributable to a credit loss, which occurs when the amortized cost basis of the security exceeds the present value of the cash flows expected to be collected from the security. If there is no credit loss, there is no other-than-temporary impairment. If there is a credit loss, other-than-temporary impairment exists, and the credit loss must be recognized in net income and the remaining portion of impairment must be recognized in other comprehensive income. The Company regularly reviews each investment security for other-than-temporary impairment based on criteria that include the extent to which cost exceeds market price, the duration of that market decline, the financial health of and specific prospects for the issuer, the best estimate of the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from debt securities, the Company’s intention with regard to holding the security to maturity and the likelihood that the Company would be required to sell the security before recovery.

Restricted Equity Securities

As members of the Federal Reserve Bank (FRB) and the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta (FHLB), the Company is required to maintain certain minimum investments in the capital stock of the FRB and FHLB. The Company’s investment in these securities is recorded at cost, based on the redemption provisions of the FRB and FHLB.

Loans

Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or pay-off are reported at their outstanding principal amount adjusted for any charge-offs, allowance for loan losses and deferred fees or costs on originated loans. Loan origination fees and certain direct origination costs are capitalized and recognized as an adjustment of the yield of the related loan.

Interest is accrued and credited to income based on the principal amount outstanding. The accrual of interest on impaired loans for all classes is discontinued when, in management’s opinion, the borrower may be unable to meet payments as they become due. When interest accrual is discontinued, all unpaid accrued interest for the current year is reversed. Interest income is subsequently recognized only to the extent cash payments are received. When facts and circumstances indicate the borrower has regained the ability to meet the required payments, the loan is returned to accrual status. Past due status of loans is determined based on contractual terms. The loan portfolio is comprised of the following classes.

●

Residential real estate construction loans carry risks that the home will not be finished according to schedule, will not be finished according to the budget and the value of the collateral may, at any point in time, be less than the principal amount of the loan. Construction loans also bear the risk that the general contractor may be unable to finish the construction project as planned because of financial pressure unrelated to the project.

●

Land acquisition and development loans and commercial construction loans carry risks that the project will not be finished according to schedule, will not be finished according to budget and the value of the collateral may, at any point in time, be less than the principal amount of the loan. Land acquisition and development loans and commercial construction loans also bear the risk that the developer in the case of land acquisition and development loans or the general contractor in the case of commercial construction loans, may be unable to finish the development or construction project as planned because of financial pressure unrelated to the project.

●	Residential real estate loans carry risks associated with the continued credit worthiness of the borrower and changes in the value of the collateral.

●

Commercial real estate loans carry risks associated with the successful operation of a business or a real estate project, in addition to other risks associated with the ownership of real estate, because the repayment of these loans may be dependent upon the profitability and cash flows of the business or project.

●	Commercial, industrial and agricultural loans carry risks associated with the successful operation of a business. In addition, there is risk associated with the value of the collateral which may depreciate over time and cannot be appraised with as much precision.

●	Equity lines of credit carry risks associated with the continued credit worthiness of the borrower and changes in the value of the collateral.

●

Consumer loans carry risks associated with the continued credit worthiness of the borrower and the value of the collateral (e.g., rapidly-depreciating assets such as automobiles), or lack thereof. Consumer loans are more likely than real estate loans to be immediately adversely affected by job loss, divorce, illness or personal bankruptcy.

A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Impairment is measured on a loan by loan basis for commercial and construction loans by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s obtainable market price, or the fair value of the collateral, less cost to sell, if the loan is collateral dependent.

TDRs (Troubled Debt Restructurings) occur when the Company agrees to significantly modify the original terms of a loan due to the deterioration in the financial condition of the borrower. TDRs are considered impaired loans. Upon designation as a TDR, the Company evaluates the borrower’s payment history, past due status and ability to make payments based on the revised terms of the loan. If a loan was accruing prior to being modified as a TDR and if the Company concludes that the borrower is able to make such payments, and there are no other factors or circumstances that would cause it to conclude otherwise, the loan will remain on an accruing status. If a loan was on nonaccrual status at the time of the TDR, the loan will remain on nonaccrual status following the modification and may be returned to accrual status based on a record of making payments as scheduled for a period of six consecutive months.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses is established as losses are estimated to have occurred through a provision for loan losses charged to earnings. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectability of a loan balance is confirmed. Consumer loans are charged off when they become 120 days past due. Non-consumer loans are charged off when the loan becomes 180 days past due unless the loan is well secured and in the process of collection. Borrowers that are in bankruptcy are charged off unless the debt has been reaffirmed and is well secured and recovery is probable. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. The allowance for loan losses is evaluated on a regular basis by management and is based upon management’s periodic review of the collectability of the loans in light of historical experience, the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying collateral and prevailing economic conditions. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available.

The allowance consists of specific and general components. The specific component relates to loans that are classified as impaired, and is established when the discounted cash flows (or collateral value or observable market price) of the impaired loan is lower than the carrying value of that loan. For collateral dependent loans, an updated appraisal will be ordered if a current one is not on file. Appraisals are performed by independent third-party appraisers with relevant industry experience. Adjustments to the appraised value may be made based on recent sales of like properties or general market conditions when appropriate. The general component covers non-classified, or performing, loans and those loans classified as substandard or special mention that are not impaired. The general component is based on historical loss experience adjusted for qualitative factors, such as current economic conditions, including current home sales and foreclosures, unemployment rates and retail sales. The characteristics of the loan ratings are as follows:

●

Pass rated loans are to persons or business entities with an acceptable financial condition, appropriate collateral margins, appropriate cash flow to service the existing loan, and an appropriate leverage ratio. The borrower has paid all obligations as agreed and it is expected that this type of payment history will continue. When necessary, acceptable personal guarantors support the loan.

●

Special mention loans have a specific defined weakness in the borrower’s operations and the borrower’s ability to generate positive cash flow on a sustained basis. The borrower’s recent payment history may be characterized by late payments. The Company’s risk exposure is mitigated by collateral supporting the loan. The collateral is considered to be well-margined, well maintained, accessible and readily marketable.

●

Substandard loans are considered to have specific and well-defined weaknesses that jeopardize the viability of the Company’s credit extension. The payment history for the loan may have been inconsistent and the expected or projected primary repayment source may be inadequate to service the loan. The estimated net liquidation value of the collateral pledged and/or ability of the personal guarantor(s) to pay the loan may not adequately protect the Company. There is a distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies associated with the loan are not corrected in the near term. A substandard loan would not automatically meet our definition of impaired unless the loan is significantly past due and the borrower’s performance and financial condition provide evidence that it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due.

●	Substandard nonaccrual loans have the same characteristics as substandard loans; however, they have a non-accrual classification and are considered impaired.

●

Doubtful rated loans have all the weaknesses inherent in a loan that is classified substandard but with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable. The possibility of loss is extremely high.

●	Loss rated loans are not considered collectible under normal circumstances and there is no realistic expectation for any future payment on the loan. Loss rated loans are fully charged off.

Loan Fees and Costs

Loan origination and commitment fees and certain direct loan origination costs charged by the Bank are deferred and the net amount amortized as an adjustment of the related loan’s yield. The Bank is amortizing these net amounts over the contractual life of the related loans or, in the case of demand loans, over the estimated life. Net fees related to standby letters of credit are recognized over the commitment period.

Property and Equipment

Land is carried at cost. Buildings, equipment, and leasehold improvements are carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets on the straight-line basis. Estimated useful lives range from ten to forty years for buildings and from three to ten years for equipment, furniture, and fixtures. Leasehold improvements are amortized over a term which includes the remaining lease term and probable renewal periods on a straight-line basis. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred and major improvements are capitalized.

Foreclosed Properties

Real estate properties acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are to be sold and are initially recorded at fair value less anticipated cost to sell at the date of foreclosure establishing a new cost basis. After foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed by management, and the real estate is carried at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. Revenue and expenses from operations and changes in the valuation allowance are included in loss on foreclosed real estate.

Bank Owned Life Insurance

The Company purchased life insurance policies during 2013 on certain key executives. These policies are recorded at their cash surrender value. Increases in the cash surrender value of the life insurance contracts are included in noninterest income in the consolidated income statement caption “other income.”

Transfers of Financial Assets

Transfers of financial assets are accounted for as sales, when control over the assets has been surrendered. Control over transferred assets is deemed to be surrendered when (1) the assets have been isolated from the Company, (2) the transferee obtains the right (free of conditions that constrain it from taking advantage of that right) to pledge or exchange the transferred assets, and (3) the Company does not maintain effective control over the transferred assets through an agreement to repurchase them before their maturity, or the ability to unilaterally cause the transferee to return specific assets.

Advertising Expense

The Company expenses advertising and marketing costs as they are incurred. For the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, advertising and marketing expense was $457 thousand and $392 thousand, respectively.

Income Taxes

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined using the liability method. Under this method, the net deferred tax asset or liability is determined based on the tax effects of the temporary differences between the book and tax basis of the various balance sheet assets and liabilities and gives current recognition to changes in tax rates and laws. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the consolidated financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above is reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. Interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits are classified as additional income taxes in the consolidated statement of income. There are no unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2013 and 2012.

Earnings per Common Share

Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, after giving retroactive effect to stock splits and dividends. Diluted earnings per common share is similar to the computation of basic earnings per common share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if dilutive potential common shares had been issued. The numerator is adjusted for any changes in income or loss that would result from the assumed conversion of those potential common shares. Potential common shares that may be issued by the Company relate solely to outstanding stock options and are determined using the treasury stock method.

Comprehensive Income

Comprehensive income reflects the change in the Company’s equity during the year arising from transactions and events other than investment by and distributions to stockholders. It consists of net income plus certain other changes in assets and liabilities that are reported as separate components of stockholders’ equity rather than as income or expense. These changes for the Company relate solely to unrealized gains and losses on securities available for sale.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company uses fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures. The fair value of a financial instrument is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value is best determined based upon quoted market prices. However, in many instances, there are no quoted prices for the Company’s various financial instruments. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques. Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. Accordingly, the fair value estimates may not be realized in an immediate settlement of the instrument.

The fair value guidance provides a consistent definition of fair value, which focuses on exit price in an orderly transaction (that is, not a forced liquidation or distress sale) between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions. If there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability, a change in valuation techniques or the use of multiple valuation techniques may be appropriate. In such instances, determining the price at which willing market participants would transact at the measurement date under current market conditions depends on the facts and circumstances and requires the use of significant judgment. The fair value is a reasonable point within the range that is most representative of fair value under current market conditions.

Credit Related Financial Instruments

In the ordinary course of business, the Company has entered into commitments to extend credit, including commitments under lines of credit arrangements, commercial letters of credit and standby letters of credit. Such financial instruments are recorded when they are funded.

Stock-Based Compensation Plan

The 2005 Stock Option Plan was approved by stockholders on April 20, 2006, which authorized 550,000 shares of common stock to be used in the granting of incentive options to employees and directors. This is the first stock incentive plan adopted by the Company. Under the plan, the option price cannot be less than the fair market value of the stock on the date granted. An option’s maximum term is ten years from the date of grant. Options granted under the plan may be subject to a vesting schedule.

The Company accounts for the stock option plan in accordance with applicable accounting guidance. Under the fair value recognition provisions of this guidance, stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is the vesting period.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-11, “Balance Sheet (Topic 210) – Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities.” This ASU requires entities to disclose both gross information and net information about both instruments and transactions eligible for offset in the consolidated balance sheet and instruments and transactions subject to an agreement similar to a master netting arrangement. An entity is required to apply the amendments for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. An entity should provide the disclosures required by those amendments retrospectively for all comparative periods presented. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In January 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-01, “Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities.” The amendments in this ASU clarify the scope for derivatives accounted for in accordance with Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, including bifurcated embedded derivatives, repurchase agreements and reverse repurchase agreements and securities borrowing and securities lending transactions that are either offset or subject to netting arrangements. An entity is required to apply the amendments for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02, “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income.” The amendments in this ASU require an entity to present (either on the face of the statement where net income is presented or in the notes) the effects on the line items of net income of significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income. In addition, the amendments require a cross-reference to other disclosures currently required for other reclassification items to be reclassified directly to net income in their entirety in the same reporting period. Companies should apply these amendments for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after December 15, 2012. The Company has included the required disclosures from ASU 2013-02 in the consolidated financial statements.

In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-10, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Inclusion of the Fed Funds Effective Swap Rate (or Overnight Index Swap Rate) as a Benchmark Interest Rate for Hedge Accounting Purposes.” The amendments in this ASU permit the Fed Funds Effective Swap Rate (also referred to as the Overnight Index Swap Rate) to be used as a U.S. benchmark interest rate for hedge accounting purposes under Topic 815, in addition to interest rates on direct Treasury obligations of the U.S. government and the London Interbank Offered Rate. The amendments also remove the restriction on using different benchmark rates for similar hedges. The amendments apply to all entities that elect to apply hedge accounting of the benchmark interest rate under Topic 815. The amendments are effective prospectively for qualifying new or redesignated hedging relationships entered into on or after July 17, 2013. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-11, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists.” The amendments in this ASU provide guidance on the financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, similar tax loss, or tax credit carryforward exists. An unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, should be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward, except as follows. To the extent a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward is not available at the reporting date under the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction to settle any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of a tax position or the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction does not require the entity to use, and the entity does not intend to use, the deferred tax asset for such purpose, the unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability and should not be combined with deferred tax assets. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments should be applied prospectively to all unrecognized tax benefits that exist at the effective date. Retrospective application is permitted. The adoption of the new guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In January 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-01, “Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Accounting for Investments in Qualified Affordable Housing Projects (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force).” The amendments in this ASU permit reporting entities to make an accounting policy election to account for their investments in qualified affordable housing projects using the proportional amortization method if certain conditions are met. Under the proportional amortization method, an entity amortizes the initial cost of the investment in proportion to the tax credits and other tax benefits received and recognizes the net investment performance in the income statement as a component of income tax expense (benefit). The amendments in this ASU should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented. A reporting entity that uses the effective yield method to account for its investments in qualified affordable housing projects before the date of adoption may continue to apply the effective yield method for those preexisting investments. The amendments in this ASU are effective for public business entities for annual periods and interim reporting periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2014. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact that ASU 2014-01 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In January 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-04, “Receivables—Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors (Subtopic 310-40): Reclassification of Residential Real Estate Collateralized Consumer Mortgage Loans upon Foreclosure (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force).” The amendments in this ASU clarify that an in substance repossession or foreclosure occurs, and a creditor is considered to have received physical possession of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan, upon either (1) the creditor obtaining legal title to the residential real estate property upon completion of a foreclosure or (2) the borrower conveying all interest in the residential real estate property to the creditor to satisfy that loan through completion of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or through a similar legal agreement. Additionally, the amendments require interim and annual disclosure of both (1) the amount of foreclosed residential real estate property held by the creditor and (2) the recorded investment in consumer mortgage loans collateralized by residential real estate property that are in the process of foreclosure according to local requirements of the applicable jurisdiction. The amendments in this ASU are effective for public business entities for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2014. The Company is currently assessing the impact that ASU 2014-04 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

The primary purpose of the investment portfolio is to generate income, diversify earning assets, and meet liquidity needs of the Company through readily saleable financial instruments. The portfolio is made up primarily of fixed rate bonds, whose prices move inversely with rates. At the end of any accounting period, the investment portfolio has unrealized gains and losses. The Company monitors the portfolio, which is subject to liquidity needs, market rate changes, and credit risk changes, to see if adjustments are needed. The primary concern in a loss situation is the credit quality of the business or entity behind the instrument. The primary cause of unrealized losses is the increase in market interest rates over the yields available at the time the securities were purchased.

At December 31, 2013, the Company does not consider any security in an unrealized loss position to be other-than-temporarily impaired.

U.S. Government and federal agency securities . The unrealized losses on nineteen of the Company’s investments in obligations of the U.S. government were caused by increases in market interest rates over the yields available at the time the securities were purchased. The contractual terms of those investments do not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less than the amortized cost bases of the investments. Because the Company does not intend to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost bases, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider those investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at December 31, 2013.

Mortgage-backed securities . The unrealized losses on ten of the Company’s investments in government-sponsored entity mortgage-backed securities were caused by increases in market interest rates over the yields available at the time the securities were purchased. Because the decline in market value is attributable to changes in interest rates and not credit quality, the Company does not consider those investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at December 31, 2013.

Municipal securities . The unrealized losses on thirty-six of the Company’s investments in obligations of municipal securities were caused by increases in market interest rates over the yields available at the time the securities were purchased. All municipal securities are investment grade. Because the decline in market value is attributable to changes in interest rates, credit spreads, ratings and not credit quality, and because the Company does not intend to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost bases, which may be maturity, the Company does not consider those investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at December 31, 2013.

The following tables demonstrate the unrealized loss position of securities available for sale at December 31, 2013 and 2012.

Proceeds from the sales, maturities and calls of securities available for sale in 2013 and 2012 were $19.1 million and $24.8 million, respectively. The Company realized $152 thousand in net gains on sales of twenty five available for sale securities in 2013, compared to $131 thousand from the sales of six securities in the prior year. The net gain in 2013 included gross gains of $261 thousand, and gross losses of $109 thousand. The prior year included gross gains of $131 thousand and no gross losses. Total pledged securities had a fair market value of $11.7 million at December 31, 2013 and $16.1 million at December 31, 2012. Securities having a fair market value of $5.2 million were pledged to secure public deposits, while securities pledged to secure Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings totaled $4.4 million. $2.1 million in securities were pledged for other purposes at December 31, 2013.

Troubled Debt Restructurings

Troubled debt restructurings (“TDR’s”) were comprised of three loans totaling $6.3 million at December 31, 2013. Two of the three loans totaling $6.3 million at year end 2013 are included in impaired loans, but are performing in accordance with their restructured terms and are not on nonaccrual status. The remaining $30 thousand loan is past due and included in loans 60-89 days past due and nonaccrual loans at year end 2013. This compares with $6.5 million in total restructured loans at December 31, 2012. One of the loans classified as a TDR at the end of the 2012 deteriorated further in 2013, resulting in a partial charge-off of $154 thousand. There was no valuation allowance related to total TDR’s at December 31, 2013, compared to $137 thousand of the valuation allowance related to total TDR’s as of December 31, 2012.

For the year ended December 31, 2013, there were no loans modified in a TDR.

The following table presents by class of loan, information related to loans modified in a TDR during 2012:

	Loans modified as TDR's For the year ended December 31, 2012

During 2012, the Company modified one loan considered to be a TDR. The terms were modified changing the loan from a home equity line of credit to a non-real estate secured term loan.

Management considers troubled debt restructurings and subsequent defaults in restructured loans in the determination of the adequacy of the Company’s allowance for loan losses. When identified as a TDR, a loan is evaluated for potential loss based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s observable market price, or the estimated fair value of the collateral, less any selling costs if the loan is collateral dependent. Loans identified as TDR’s frequently are on non-accrual status at the time of the restructuring and, in some cases, partial charge-offs may have already been taken against the loan and a specific allowance may have already been established for the loan. As a result of any modification as a TDR, the specific reserve associated with the loan may be increased. Additionally, loans modified in a TDR are closely monitored for delinquency as an early indicator of possible future defaults. If loans modified in a TDR subsequently default, the Company evaluates the loan for possible further impairment. As a result, any specific allowance may be increased, adjustments may be made in the allocation of the total allowance balance, or partial charge-offs may be taken to further write-down the carrying value of the loan.

Note 10. Fair Value Measurements

The Company uses a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s market assumptions. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy based on these two types of inputs are as follows:

Level 1 - Valuation is based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

Level 2 - Valuation is based on observable inputs including quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in less active markets, and model-based valuation techniques for which significant assumptions can be derived primarily from or corroborated by observable data in the market.

Level 3 - Valuation is based on model-based techniques that use one or more significant inputs or assumptions that are unobservable in the market.

The following describes the valuation techniques used by the Company to measure certain financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring basis in the consolidated financial statements:

Securities available for sale: Securities available for sale are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value measurement is based upon quoted market prices, when available (Level 1). If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are measured utilizing independent valuation techniques of identical or similar securities for which significant assumptions are derived primarily from or corroborated by observable market data. Third party vendors compile prices from various sources and may determine the fair value of identical or similar securities by using pricing models that consider observable market data (Level 2).

Bank owned life insurance: Bank owned life insurance represents insurance policies on certain officers of the Company. The cash values are estimates using information provided by insurance carriers. These polices are carried at their cash surrender value, which approximates fair value.

Derivative assets: Derivative assets are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value measurement is based upon quoted market prices, when available (Level 1). If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are measured utilizing independent valuation techniques of identical or similar securities for which significant assumptions are derived primarily from or corroborated by observable market data. Third party vendors compile prices from various sources and may determine the fair value of identical or similar assets by using pricing models that consider observable market data (Level 2).

Derivative liabilities : Derivative liabilities are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value measurement is based upon quoted market prices, when available (Level 1). If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are measured utilizing independent valuation techniques of identical or similar securities for which significant assumptions are derived primarily from or corroborated by observable market data. Third party vendors compile prices from various sources and may determine the fair value of identical or similar liabilities by using pricing models that consider observable market data (Level 2).

The following tables present the balances of financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2013 and 2012:

(Dollars In Thousands)			Carrying value at December 31, 2013
Description	Balance as of December 31, 2013		Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)	Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)

Mortgaged-backed securities		15,361			15,361
Municipal securities		16,277			16,277

(Dollars In Thousands)			Carrying value at December 31, 2012

Certain assets are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Adjustments to the fair value of these assets usually result from the application of lower-of-cost-or-market accounting or write-downs of individual assets.

The following describes the valuation techniques used by the Company to measure certain assets recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in the consolidated financial statements:

Impaired Loans: The Company does not record loans at fair value on a recurring basis. However, from time to time a loan is considered impaired and a specific reserve is established. Loans for which it is probable that payment of interest and principal will not be made in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement are considered impaired. Once a loan is identified as individually impaired, management measures the extent of any loss. The fair value of impaired loans is estimated using one of several methods, including collateral value, market value of similar debt, enterprise value, liquidation value, and discounted cash flow. Those impaired loans not requiring an allowance represent loans for which the fair value of the expected repayments or collateral exceed the recorded investment in such loans. Impaired loans where an allowance is established based on the fair value of collateral require classification in the fair value hierarchy. If carried at market price based on appraised value using observable market data, it is recorded as nonrecurring Level 2. When an appraised value is not available or management determines the fair value of the collateral is further impaired below the appraisal value and there is no observable market price, the Company records the impaired loan as nonrecurring Level 3.

Other Real Estate Owned (OREO) : The carrying amount of real estate owned by the Company resulting from foreclosures is estimated at the lesser of cost or the fair value of the real estate based on an observable market price or a current appraised value less selling costs. If carried at market price based on appraised value using observable market data, it is recorded as nonrecurring Level 2. When an appraised value is not available or is not current, or management determines the fair value of the real estate is further impaired below the appraised value or there is no observable market price, the Company records the real estate as nonrecurring Level 3.

The following table summarizes the Company’s assets that were measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as of December 31, 2013 and 2012.

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating its fair value disclosures for financial instruments:

Cash and due from banks: The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheet for cash on hand and amounts due from correspondent banks approximate their fair values. The fair values for certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on certificates of deposit to a schedule of contractual maturities on such time deposits.

Federal funds sold: Federal funds sold consist of overnight loans to other financial institutions and mature within one to three days. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, management believes the carrying value of federal funds sold approximates estimated market value.

Available-for-sale securities: Fair values for securities, excluding restricted equity securities, are based on quoted market prices, where available. If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on quoted market prices of comparable instruments.

Restricted equity securities: For these restricted equity securities, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value based on the redemption provisions of the related securities.

Loans receivable: For variable-rate loans that reprice frequently and with no significant change in credit risk, fair values are based on carrying amounts. The fair values for other loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analysis, based on interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality.

Bank owned life insurance: The cash values of these policies are estimates using information provided by insurance carriers. The policies are carried at their cash surrender value, which approximates fair value.

Deposit liabilities: The fair values disclosed for demand and savings deposits are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair values for certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on certificates of deposit to a schedule of contractual maturities on such time deposits.

Short term borrowings: Short term borrowings consist of overnight borrowings and mature within one to three days. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, management believes the carrying value of securities sold under agreements to repurchase approximates estimated market value.

FHLB borrowings: The fair values for long term borrowings are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered on long term borrowings to the contractual maturities on such long term borrowings.

Accrued interest: The carrying amount of accrued interest receivable and payable approximates fair value.

Off-balance sheet financial instruments: The fair values of commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit are estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, the fair value of loan commitments and standby letters of credit were deemed to be immaterial.

	2013							2012
*Dollars In Thousands, except share and per share data*	Weighted Average Common Share s Outstanding		Net Income Available to Common Shareholders		Per Share Amount			Weighted Average Common Share s Outstanding		Net Income Available to Common Shareholders		Per Share Amount
Earnings per common share, basic		3,269,063	$	1,741	$	0.53			3,259,424	$	3,987	$	1.22

Earnings per common share, diluted		4,416,679	$	2,131	$	0.48			3,259,424	$	3,987	$	1.22

At December 31, 2013 and 2012, stock options to purchase 391,710 and 459,690 shares, respectively, were outstanding. These options were not included in the calculation of diluted weighted average shares as their impact would be antidilutive.

Note 12. Stock Based Compensation

The Company recorded stock based compensation expense of $36 thousand and $29 thousand for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

The Company has a 2005 Stock Option Plan (the Plan) pursuant to which the Board of Directors may grant stock options to directors, officers and employees. Under the fair value recognition provisions of relevant accounting guidance, stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is the vesting period.

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of stock options. The fair value of the stock based payment awards is affected by the price of our stock and a number of financial assumptions and variables. These variables include the risk free interest rate, expected dividend rate, expected stock price volatility and the expected life of the options. No options were granted in the years ended December 31, 2013 or 2012. All previously issued options were fully vested by the end of 2012. Total compensation related to stock options was $1 thousand in 2012 compared to none in 2013.

A summary of option activity under the 2005 stock option plan during the year ended December 31, 2013 is as follows:

	Options Outstanding			Weighted Average Exercise Price		Aggregate Intrinsic Value (1)		Weighted Average Contractual Term (years)
Balance at December 31, 2012		459,690		$	9.31
Granted		-			-
Exercised		-			-
Forfeited		(67,980	)		10.00
Balance at December 31, 2013		391,710		$	9.34	$	-		2.54
Exercisable at December 31, 2013		391,710		$	9.34	$	-		2.54

(1) The aggregate intrinsic value of a stock option in the table above represents the total pre-tax intrinsic value (the amount by which the current market value of the underlying stock exceeds the exercise price of the option) that would have been received by the option holders had all option holders exercised their options on December 31, 2013.

In 2009, the Board of Directors authorized 132,000 shares of common stock for issuance under the Restricted Stock Plan. The plan provides for restricted stock awards to key employees. Restricted shares awarded to employees generally vest over a five year period and compensation expense is charged to income ratably over the vesting period and was $36 thousand in 2013 and $28 thousand in 2012. Compensation is accounted for using the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date the restricted shares are awarded. The weighted-average grant date fair value of restricted stock granted in 2013 was $5.98 compared to $4.20 in 2012. The Company granted 7,781 and 20,971 shares of restricted stock under the plan in 2013 and 2012, respectively.

As of December 31, 2013, there was $107 thousand of total unrecognized compensation cost related to restricted stock granted under the Plan. The cost is expected to be recognized through 2018. A summary of the activity for restricted stock awards for the periods indicated is presented below:

	2013					2012
	Shares			Weighted-Average Grant Date Fair Value		Shares			Weighted-Average Grant Date Fair Value
Nonvested at beginning of year		25,896		$	4.76		6,566		$	7.16
Granted		7,781			5.98		20,971			4.20

Cancelled	–			–		–			–
Nonvested at end of year		27,846		$	5.05		25,896		$	4.76

Note 13. Employee Benefit Plans

The Company adopted a profit sharing plan pursuant to Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. The plan covers substantially all employees. Participants may contribute a percentage of compensation, subject to a maximum allowed under the Code. The Company makes non-discretionary matching contributions of 100% of the employee’s deferral up to 3% of compensation and matches 50% of the employee’s next 3% deferral. In addition, the Company may make additional contributions at the discretion of the Board of Directors. The Company’s matching contributions were $180 thousand and $157 thousand for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

The Company has Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (the “SERP”) for certain key officers. The plan provides the participating officers with supplemental retirement income. The SERP provides lifetime payments equal to 20% of a participant’s average annual base salary for the five years immediately prior to retirement. There is an incentive formula with an additional benefit of 20% of a participant’s average annual base salary for the five years immediately prior to retirement if performance targets set by the Board of Directors are met. The SERP contains provisions for disability and survivor benefits, a benefits vesting schedule based on age attained and automatic full vesting in the event of a change in control of the Company. The funding mechanism for the plan is Bank Owned Life Insurance policies on the lives of the participants.

Note 14. Income Taxes

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and the Commonwealth of Virginia. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local income tax examinations by tax authorities for years prior to 2010. The Company has operating loss carryforwards of $889 thousand for federal income tax purposes that may be used to offset future taxable income. If not previously utilized, the federal loss carryforwards will begin to expire in 2025.

The current and deferred components of income tax expense (benefit) for the periods ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 are as follows:

(Dollars In Thousands)	2013		2012
Current	$	68	$	853

Note 15. Commitments and Contingencies

Litigation

In the normal course of business the Company may be involved in various legal proceedings. The Company was not involved in any litigation for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Financial Instruments with Off-Balance-Sheet Risk

The Company is party to credit related financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheet.

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 and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual 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.

A summary of the Company’s commitments at December 31, 2013 and 2012 is as follows (dollars in thousands):

(Dollars In Thousands)	2013		2012

Commitments to extend credit	$	19,164	$	16,073

Unfunded commitments under lines of credit		41,056		30,781

Standby letters of credit		4,040		3,346

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 expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the party. Collateral held varies, but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property and equipment, residential real estate and income-producing commercial properties.

Unfunded commitments under commercial lines-of-credit, revolving credit lines and overdraft protection agreements are commitments for possible future extensions of credit to existing customers. These lines-of-credit may or may not be drawn upon to the total extent to which the Company is committed.

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Those guarantees are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. Collateral held varies as specified above and is required in instances which the Company deems necessary.

The Company is required to maintain certain required reserve balances with the Federal Reserve Bank. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, these reserve balances amounted to $3.3 million and $3.9 million, respectively.

The Company from time to time may have cash and cash equivalents on deposit with financial institutions that exceed federally insured limits. Balances in excess of FDIC insured amounts totaled $6,846,000 and $4,018,000 at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Financial Derivatives

Financial Derivatives are reported at fair value in other assets and other liabilities. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative depends on whether it has been designated and qualifies as part of a hedging relationship. For derivatives not designated as hedges, the gain or loss is recognized in current earnings. In 2008, the Company entered into interest rate swaps to facilitate customer transactions in connection with their financing needs. Upon entering into swaps with the borrowers to meet their financing needs, the Company entered into offsetting positions with counterparties to minimize risk to the Company. These back-to-back swaps qualify as derivatives, but are not designated as hedging instruments. Interest rate swap contracts involve the risk of dealing with borrowers and counterparties and their ability to meet contractual terms. When the fair value of a derivative instrument contract is positive, this generally indicates that the counterparty or customer owes the Company, and results in credit risk to the Company. When the fair value of a derivative instrument contract is negative, the Company owes the customer or counterparty and therefore, has no risk. The interest rate swaps entered into in 2008 matured in June, 2013. At year-end 2013, the Company did not hold any interest rate swaps.

A summary of the Company’s interest rate swaps is as follows (dollars in thousands):

(Dollars In Thousands)	December 31, 2013				December 31, 2012
	Notional Amount		Estimated Fair Value		Notional Amount			Estimated Fair Value
Interest rate swap agreements:

Note 16. Regulatory Restrictions

Dividends

The Company, as a Virginia banking corporation, may pay dividends only out of its retained earnings. However, regulatory authorities may limit payment of dividends by any company when it is determined that such a limitation is in the public interest and is necessary to ensure financial soundness of the Company. At December 31, 2013 there were no retained earnings available from which to pay dividends.

Capital Requirements

The Company (on a consolidated basis) and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by federal and state 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 Company’s and the Bank’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of their assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. Prompt corrective action provisions are not applicable to bank holding companies.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below) of total and Tier I capital to risk-weighted assets, and of Tier I capital to average assets, as all those terms are defined in the applicable regulations. As of December 31, 2013, management believes the Company and the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.

As of December 31, 2013, the most recent notification from the Federal Reserve Bank, categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized, the Bank must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier I risk-based, and Tier I leverage ratios as set forth in the following table. There are no conditions or events since the notification that management believes have changed the Bank’s category.

The Company’s and the Bank’s actual capital amounts and ratios are also presented in the following table.

December 31, 2013	Actual					Minimum Capital Requirement					Minimum To Be Well Capitalized Under Prompt Corrective Action Provisions
(in thousands except for percentages)	Amount		Ratio			Amount		Ratio			Amount		Ratio

Note 17. Transactions with Related Parties

The Company has entered into transactions with its directors, significant shareholders and their affiliates (related parties). Such transactions were made in the ordinary course of business on substantially the same terms and conditions, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the same time for comparable transactions with other customers, and did not, in the opinion of management, involve more than normal credit risk or present other unfavorable features.

Aggregate loan transactions with related parties were as follows:

(Dollars In Thousands)	2013			2012

Balance, beginning	$	8,140		$	8,027
New loans		5,182			7,854
Repayments		(5,042	)		(7,741	)
Balance, ending	$	8,280		$	8,140

Aggregate deposit balances with related parties at December 31, 2013 and 2012 were $5,994,000 and $4,696,000, respectively.

Note 18. Capital Transactions

The Department of the Treasury created the Troubled Asset Relief Program in 2008 to make capital available to certain U.S. financial institutions through the Capital Purchase Program. Under this program, the Treasury would purchase preferred stock with an initial cumulative dividend rate of 5% and received warrants to purchase additional preferred stock with a cumulative dividend rate of 9%. Participating financial institutions were required to adopt the Treasury’s standards for executive compensation and corporate governance for the period during which the Treasury holds equity issued under the TARP Capital Purchase Program.

On September 18, 2009, as part of the Capital Purchase Program, the Company entered into a Letter Agreement and Securities Purchase Agreement with the Treasury, pursuant to which the Company sold $10 million of its Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series A, and a warrant to purchase $374 thousand of its Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series B. The Warrant was exercised immediately, and the discount accreted until the shares were redeemed in 2013.

The Preferred Stock qualified as Tier 1 capital. The cumulative dividend rate for Series A was 5% per annum for the first five years, and thereafter at a rate of 9% per annum. The Series B paid cumulative dividends at a rate of 9% per annum. For the year through the September 23, 2013 redemption of the Series A and B preferred stock, the Company paid a total of $457 thousand in dividends. The Company paid a total of $1.3 million in dividends on Series A and B preferred stock in 2012. Of the total dividends paid, $534 thousand were for 2012 and $800 thousand were for 2011. Due to the net loss incurred in 2010, the Company was prohibited from paying dividends during 2011 on the preferred stock.

On October 31, 2012, the Company's $10 million of Series A Preferred Stock and $374 thousand Series B Preferred Stock were sold by the Treasury as part of its efforts to manage and recover its investments under the TARP. While the sale of these preferred shares to new owners did not result in any proceeds to the Company and did not change the Company's capital position or accounting for these securities, it did eliminate restrictions put in place by the Treasury on TARP recipients.

On June 28, 2013 HomeTown Bankshares Corporation completed a $14,000,000 private placement of its convertible preferred stock. Pursuant to the terms of the Private Placement Memorandum, dated April 17, 2013, and amended thereafter, the Company sold 14,000 shares of its 6.0% Series C NonCumulative Perpetual Convertible Preferred Stock at a price of $1,000 per share. The convertible preferred stock pays quarterly dividends equivalent to six percent (6%) per annum, and is convertible into shares of common stock of the Company based on a conversion price of $6.25 per share, subject to adjustment. The Company paid $389 thousand in dividends on Series C preferred stock in 2013.

On September 24, 2013, the Company used the net proceeds from this offering to redeem the $10,374,000 of its Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series A and Series B. The remaining proceeds have and will be used to support future growth and for general corporate purposes.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders

HomeTown Bankshares Corporation

Roanoke, Virginia

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of HomeTown Bankshares Corporation and subsidiary as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended. 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 the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, 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 HomeTown Bankshares Corporation and subsidiary as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Based upon an evaluation of the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures by the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), the CEO and CFO have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, as defined under Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e), were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC and is accumulated and communicated to management, including the CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

MANAGEMENT’S ANNUAL REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

HomeTown Bankshares Corporation’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. HomeTown Bankshares Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management assessed the effectiveness of HomeTown Bankshares’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework in 1992. Based on this assessment, management believes that, as of December 31, 2013, HomeTown Bankshares’s internal control over financial reporting was effective.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of HomeTown Bankshares’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by HomeTown Bankshares’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit filers to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended December 31, 2013 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
