COMMERCIAL NATIONAL FINANCIAL CORPORATION
               NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2009

Note 1    Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Commercial National Financial Corporation (the Corporation) and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Commercial Bank & Trust of PA and Ridge Properties, Inc. All material intercompany transactions have been eliminated.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information.  However, they do not include all information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements of the Corporation for the year ended December 31, 2008, including the notes thereto. In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair statement of financial position as of June 30, 2009 and the results of operations for the three and six-month period ended June 30, 2009 and 2008. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire year.

Note 2    Allowance for Loan Losses

The provision for loan losses is the amount added to the allowance against which actual loan losses are charged. The amount of the provision is determined by management through an evaluation of the size and quality of the loan portfolio, economic conditions, concentrations of credit, recent loan loss trends, delinquencies and other risks inherent within the loan portfolio.

The corporation did not record a provision for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2009 and June 30, 2008.

The Corporation reviews its position quarterly to determine if there is Other-Than-Temporary Impairment (OTTI) on any of its securities.  See Note 8.  All of the Corporation’s securities are debt securities and we assess whether OTTI is present when the fair value of a security is less than its amortized cost basis.  The Corporation monitors the credit ratings of all securities for downgrades as well as any other indication of OTTI condition.  As of June 30, 2009 there were eight (8) municipal bonds in an unrealized loss position.  These unrealized losses are considered to be temporary impairments.  The decline in the value of these debt securities is due only to interest rate fluctuations and not any deterioration in credit quality.  As a result, the Corporation currently expects full payment of contractual cash flows, including principal from these securities. Management has the intent and ability to hold these securities until market recovery or maturity, therefore none of the unrealized losses on securities are deemed to be other than temporary.

At December 31, 2008, no securities held by the Corporation were in unrealized loss position.

Note 5   Legal Proceedings

Other than proceedings which occur in the normal course of business, there are no legal proceedings to which either the Corporation or it’s subsidiaries is a party, which, in the opinion of management, will have any material effect on the financial position or results of operations of the Corporation and its subsidiaries.

Note 6   Guarantees

The Corporation does not issue any guarantees that would require liability recognition or disclosure, other than its standby letters of credit.  Standby letters of credit written are conditional commitments issued by the Bank to secure the performance of a customer to a third party. Of these letters of credit, $438,000 automatically renews within the next twelve months and $2,357,000 will expire within thirteen to one hundred and twenty-two months. The Bank, generally, holds collateral and/or personal guarantees supporting these commitments. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as those that are involved in extending loan facilities to customers. The current amount of the liability as of June 30, 2009 for guarantees under standby letters of credit issued is not material.

Note 7   Earnings per share

The Corporation has a simple capital structure. Basic earnings per share equals net income divided by the weighted average common shares outstanding during each period presented. The weighted average common shares outstanding for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 was 2,871,745 and 3,010,714 respectively.

Note 8   New Accounting Standards Adopted

In April 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Staff Position (FSP) No. FAS 157-4, Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly (FSP FAS 157-4).  FASB Statement 157, Fair Value Measurements, defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell the asset or transfer the liability in an orderly transaction (that is, not a forced liquidation or distressed sale) between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions. FSP FAS 157-4 provides additional guidance on determining when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability has significantly decreased. The FSP also includes guidance on identifying circumstances when a transaction may not be considered orderly.

FSP FAS 157-4 provides a list of factors that a reporting entity should evaluate to determine whether there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability in relation to normal market activity for the asset or liability. When the reporting entity concludes there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability, further analysis of the information from that market is needed and significant adjustments to the related prices may be necessary to estimate fair value in accordance with Statement 157.

This FSP clarifies that when there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability, some transactions may not be orderly. In those situations, the entity must evaluate the weight of the evidence to determine whether the transaction is orderly. The FSP provides a list of circumstances that may indicate that a transaction is not orderly. A transaction price that is not associated with an orderly transaction is given little, if any, weight when estimating fair value.

This FSP is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009.  An entity early adopting FSP FAS 157-4 must also early adopt FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2, Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments.  Upon adoption the Corporation has determined FAS 157-4 did not have a material impact on the Corporation’s financial statements as of June 30, 2009.

In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2, Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments (FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2).   FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2 clarifies the interaction of the factors that should be considered when determining whether a debt security is other-than-temporarily impaired. For debt securities, management must assess whether (a) it has the intent to sell the security and (b) it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell the security prior to its anticipated recovery. These steps are done before assessing whether the entity will recover the cost basis of the investment. Previously, this assessment required management to assert it has both the intent and the ability to hold a security for a period of time sufficient to allow for an anticipated recovery in fair value to avoid recognizing an other-than-temporary impairment. This change does not affect the need to forecast recovery of the value of the security through either cash flows or market price.

In instances when a determination is made that an other-than-temporary impairment exists but the investor does not intend to sell the debt security and it is not more likely than not that it will be required to sell the debt security prior to its anticipated recovery, FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2 changes the presentation and amount of the other-than-temporary impairment recognized in the income statement. The other-than-temporary impairment is separated into (a) the amount of the total other-than-temporary impairment related to a decrease in cash flows expected to be collected from the debt security (the credit loss) and (b) the amount of the total other-than-temporary impairment related to all other factors. The amount of the total other-than-temporary impairment related to the credit loss is recognized in earnings. The amount of the total other-than-temporary impairment related to all other factors is recognized in other comprehensive income.

This FSP is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009.  An entity early adopting FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2 must also early adopt FSP FAS 157-4, Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly.  Upon adoption the Corporation has determined FAS 157-2 and FAS 124-2 did not have a material impact on the Corporation’s financial statements as of June 30, 2009.

In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1, Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments (FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1).  FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1 amends FASB Statement No. 107, Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments, to require disclosures about fair value of financial instruments for interim reporting periods of publicly traded companies as well as in annual financial statements. This FSP also amends APB Opinion No. 28, Interim Financial Reporting, to require those disclosures in summarized financial information at interim reporting periods.

This FSP is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009.  An entity early adopting FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1 must also early adopt FSP FAS 157-4, Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly and FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2, Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments. Upon adoption the Corporation has determined FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1 did not have a material impact on the Corporation’s financial statements as of June 30, 2009.  See footnote 11, Fair Value Disclosures, for additional disclosures required upon adoption of FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1.

Effective April 1, 2009, the Corporation adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Board (SFAS) No. 165, Subsequent Events. SFAS No.165 establishes general standards for accounting for disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued. SFAS No. 165 sets forth the period after the balance sheet date during which management of a reporting entity should evaluate events and transactions that may occur for potential recognition in the financial statements, identifies the circumstances under which an entity should recognize events or transaction occurring after the balance sheet date in it’s financial statements, and the disclosures that should be made about events or transactions that occur after the balance sheet date.  In preparing these financial statements, the Corporation evaluated the events and transactions that occurred between June 30, 2009 through August 7, 2009, the date these financial statements were issued.

In January 2009, the FASB issued FSP EITF 99-20-1, “Amendments to the Impairment of Guidance of EITF Issue No. 99-20” (FSP EITF 99-20-1). FSP EITF 99-20-1 amends the impairment guidance in EITF Issue No. 99-20, “Recognition of Interest Income and Impairment on Purchased Beneficial Interests and Beneficial Interests That Continue to Be Held by a Transferor in Securitized Financial Assets”, to achieve more consistent determination of whether an other-than-temporary impairment has occurred. FSP EITF 99-20-1 also retains and emphasizes the objective of an other-than-temporary impairment assessment and the related disclosure requirements in SFAS No. 115, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities”, and other related guidance. FSP EITF 99-20-1 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after December 15, 2008, and shall be applied prospectively. Retrospective application to a prior interim or annual reporting period is not permitted. The Corporation has determined this pronouncement did not have a material  impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, "The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities-Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115." SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected will be recognized in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. The Corporation adopted the provisions of FAS 159 but did not elect fair value option for any financial assets or financial liabilities as of January 1, 2008.

In February 2008, the FASB issued FSP 157-2. Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157, that permits a one-year deferral in applying the measurement provisions of SFAS No. 157 to non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities (non-financial items) that are not recognized or disclosed at fair value in an entity’s financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually).  Therefore, if the change in fair value of a non-financial item is not required to be recognized or disclosed in the financial statements on an annual basis or more frequently, the effective date of application of SFAS No. 157 to that item is deferred until fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008 and interim periods within those fiscal years.  This deferral does not apply, however, to an entity that applied SFAS No. 157 in interim or annual financial statements prior to the issuance of FSB 157-2.  This FSP was adopted on January 1, 2009 and did not have a material effect on the Corporation’s financial condition or results of operations.  See footnote 11, Fair Value Disclosures, for additional disclosures required upon adoption of FAS 157.

In October 2008, the FASB issued FSP SFAS No. 157-3,Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset When The Market for That Asset Is Not Active”  (FSP 157-3), to clarify the application of the provisions of SFAS 157 in an inactive market and how an entity would determine fair value in an inactive market.  FSP 157-3 is effective immediately and applies to our first and second quarter 2009 financial reporting.  The application of the provisions of FSP 157-3 did not materially affect our results of operations or financial condition as of and for the period ended June 30, 2009.

In April 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) FAS 142-3, “Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets.”  This FSP amends the factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under FASB Statement No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” (“SFAS 142”).  The intent of this FSP is to improve the consistency between the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under SFAS 142 and the period of expected cash flows used to measure the fair value of the asset under SFAS 141R, and other GAAP.  This FSP is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is prohibited.  The Corporation has determined this FSP did not have a material effect on our results of operations or financial condition as of and for the period ended June 30, 2009.

In November 2008, the FASB ratified Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 08-6, “Equity Method Investment Accounting Considerations”. EITF 08-6 clarifies the accounting for certain transactions and impairment considerations involving equity method investments. EITF 08-6 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, with early adoption prohibited. The Corporation has determined this EITF has no impact on our result of operations or financial condition as of and for the period ended June 30, 2009.

Note 9   New Accounting Standards

In November 2008, the SEC released a proposed roadmap regarding the potential use by U.S. issuers of financial statements prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). IFRS is a comprehensive series of accounting standards published by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). Under the proposed roadmap, the Corporation may be required to prepare financial statements in accordance with IFRS as early as 2014. The SEC will make a determination in 2011 regarding the mandatory adoption of IFRS. The Corporation is currently assessing the impact that this potential change would have on its consolidated financial statements, and it will continue to monitor the development of the potential implementation of IFRS.

The FASB Accounting Standards CodificationTM and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, A Replacement of FASB Statement No. 162.  In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 168, The FASB Accounting Standards CodificationTM and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, A Replacement of FASB Statement No. 162. This statement identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles used in the preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in conformity with GAAP. The FASB Accounting Standards CodificationTM ("Codification") will become the source of authoritative GAAP. Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. This Statement is effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. On the effective date of this Statement, all then-existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards are superseded and all nongrandfathered, non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification is deemed nonauthoritative. The issuance of this Statement and the Codification will not change GAAP and therefore will not have an impact of the Corporation's financial position or results of operation upon adoption on September 15, 2009.

Following issuance of this statement, the Board will not issue new standards in the form of Statements, FASB Staff Positions ("FSP"), or Emerging Issues Task Force Abstracts. Instead, it will issue Accounting Standards Updates. The Board will not consider Accounting Standards Updates as authoritative in their own right. Accounting Standards Updates will serve only to update the Codification, provide background information about the guidance, and provide the bases for conclusions on the change(s) in the Codification.

Note 10   Restricted Investment in Bank Stock
 
Federal law requires the Bank, a member institution of the Federal Home Loan Bank system, to hold stock of its district Federal Home Loan Bank according to a predetermined formula.  This restricted stock is carried at cost and as of June 30, 2009, consists of the common stock of FHLB of Pittsburgh.  In December 2008, the FHLB of Pittsburgh notified member banks that it was suspending dividend payments and the repurchase of capital stock.
 
Management evaluates the restricted stock for impairment in accordance with Statement of Position (SOP) 01-6, Accounting by Certain Entities (Including Entities With Trade Receivables) That Lend to or Finance the Activities of Others.  Management’s determination of whether these investments are impaired is based on their assessment of the ultimate recoverability of their cost rather than by recognizing temporary declines in value.  The determination of whether a decline affects the ultimate recoverability of their cost is influenced by criteria such as (1) the significance of the decline in net assets of the FHLB as compared to the capital stock amount for the FHLB and the length of time this situation has persisted, (2) commitments by the FHLB to make payments required by law or regulation and the level of such payments in relation to the operating performance of the FHLB, and (3) the impact of legislative and regulatory changes on institutions and, accordingly, on the customer base of the FHLB.
 
Management believes no impairment charge is necessary related to the FHLB as of June 30, 2009. Our evaluation of the factors described above in future periods could result in the recognition of impairment charges on FHLB stock.

Note 11   Fair Value Disclosures

The Corporation adopted FASB Statement No.157 “Fair Value Measurements” (SFAS 157) effective January 1, 2008 for financial assets and liabilities that are measured and reported at fair value.  There was no impact from the adoption of SFAS 157 on the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements. SFAS 157 primary impact on the Corporation’s financial statements was to expand required disclosures pertaining to the methods used to determine fair values.

SFAS 157 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation methods used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under SFAS 157 are as follows:

Level 1:  Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical,unrestricted assets or liabilities.

Level 2:  Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly, forsubstantially the full term of the asset or liability.

Level 3:  Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement andunobservable (ie., supported with little or no market activity).

For assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis, the fair value measurement by level within the fair value hierarchy used at June 30, 2009 are as follows  (in thousands).

The following valuation techniques were used to measure fair value for available for sale securities as of June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008

Securities Available for Sale: The Corporation utilizes a third party in determining the fair values for securities held as available for sale.  For the Corporation’s agency mortgage backed securities, the third party utilizes market data, pricing models that vary based on asset class and include available trade, bid and other market information. Methodology includes broker quotes, proprietary modes, vast descriptive terms and conditions.  The third party uses their own proprietary valuation Matrices in determining fair values for municipal bonds.  These Matrices utilize comprehensive municipal bond interest rate tables daily to determine market price, movement and yield relationships.

We may be required to measure certain other financial assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis.  These adjustments to fair value usually result from the application of lower-of-cost-or-market accounting or write-downs of individual assets.  The Level 3 disclosures shown below represent the carrying value of loans for which adjustments are primarily based on the appraised value of collateral or the present value of expected future cash flows, which often results in significant management assumptions and input with respect to the determination of fair value.  There were no realized or unrealized gains or losses relating to Level 3 financial assets and liabilities measured on a nonrecurring basis for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008.

For assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis, the fair value measurement by level within the fair value hierarchy used at June 30, 2009 are as follows  (in thousands).

Impaired loans at December 31, 2008, which are measured using the fair value of the collateral less estimated costs to sell for collateral-dependent loans, had a carrying amount of $3,576,000 with a valuation allowance of $215,000.

The decrease in impaired loans from December 31, 2008 to June 30, 2009 is due to changes in two loan relationships. One was upgraded, a  $2.8 million relationship, which had lost a sizable anchor tenant, resulting in a need for restructured terms of repayment.  Since year-end 2008, the borrower has been able to negotiate a favorable lease with a replacement tenant.  The other is a $265,000 loan that was downgraded due loan being restructured to interest only.

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

Cash and Short-Term Investments

The carrying amounts for cash and short-term investments approximate the estimated fair values of such assets.

Securities
The Corporation utilizes a third party in determining the fair values for securities held as available for sale.  For the Corporation’s agency mortgage backed securities, the third party utilizes market data, pricing models that vary based on asset class and include available trade, bid and other market information. Methodology includes broker quotes, proprietary modes, vast descriptive terms and conditions.  The third party uses their own proprietary valuation Matrices in determining fair values for municipal bonds.  These Matrices utilize comprehensive municipal bond interest rate tables daily to determine market price, movement and yield relationships.

Restricted Investments in Bank Stock

The carrying amounts of restricted investments in bank stock approximate the estimated fair value of such assets.

Loans Receivable

The fair values of loans receivables are estimated by discounting the future cash flows using interest rates currently offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality.

Deposits

For deposits which are payable on demand at the reporting date, representing all deposits other than time deposits, management estimated that the carrying value of such deposits is a reasonable estimate of fair value.  Fair values of time deposits are estimated by discounting the future cash flows using interest rates currently being offered and a schedule of aggregate expected maturities.

 

14


Short-Term Borrowings

The carrying amounts for short-term borrowings approximate the estimated fair value of such liabilities.

Long-Term Borrowings

Fair values of long-term borrowings are estimated by discounting the future cash flows using interest rates currently available for borrowings with similar terms and maturity.

Accrued Interest Receivable and Payable

The carrying amount of accrued interest receivable and payable is considered a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Off-Balance Sheet Instruments

The fair value of commitments to extend credit and for outstanding letters of credit is estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account market interest rates, the remaining terms and present credit worthiness of the counterparties.

Forward-looking statements (statements which are not historical facts) in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. For this purpose, any statements contained herein that are not statements of historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, words such as “may,” “will,” “to,” “expect,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “could,” “would,” “estimate,” or “continue” or the negative or other variations thereof or comparable terminology are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements are based on information currently available to the Corporation, and the Corporation assumes no obligation to update these statements as circumstances change. Investors are cautioned that all forward-looking statements involve risk and uncertainties, including changes in general economic and financial market conditions, unforeseen credit problems, and the Corporation’s ability to execute its business plans. The actual results of future events could differ materially from those stated in any forward-looking statements herein.


CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

Disclosure of the Corporation’s significant accounting policies is included in Note 1 to the Corporation’s Consolidated Financial Statements contained in the Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008 (the 2008 Annual Report). Some of these policies are particularly sensitive, requiring that significant judgments, estimates and assumptions be made by management. Additional information is contained in the Management’s Discussion and Analysis section of the 2008 Annual Report for the most sensitive of these issues, including the provision and allowance for loan losses.

Significant estimates are made by management in determining the allowance for loan losses. Management considers a variety of factors in establishing these estimates, including current economic conditions, diversification of the loan portfolio, delinquency statistics, results of internal loan reviews, financial and managerial strengths of borrowers, adequacy of collateral (if collateral dependent) and other relevant factors. Estimates related to the value of collateral also have a significant impact on whether or not the Corporation continues to accrue income on delinquent loans and on the amounts at which foreclosed real estate is recorded in
the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. Management discussed the development and selection of critical accounting estimates and related Management and Discussion and Analysis disclosure with the Corporation’s Audit Committee. There were no material changes made to the critical accounting estimates during the periods presented within.

OVERVIEW

The Corporation had net income of $2.3 million or $0.81 per share, for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to $1.8 million or $0.59 per share for the six months ended June 30, 2008. The Corporation’s return on average assets for the first half of 2009 and 2008 was 1.26% and 0.99%, respectively.  Return on average equity for the same two periods was 11.52% and 9.20%, respectively.

15

 
The Corporation’s largest segment of operating results is dependent upon net interest income. Net interest income is interest earned on interest-earning assets less interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities. For the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, net interest income was $7.5 million and $6.4 million, respectively.

The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”) adopted a revised risk-based deposit insurance assessment schedule on February 27, 2009, which raised deposit insurance premiums.  On May 22, 2009, the FDIC also implemented a five basis point special assessment of each insured depository institution’s assets minus Tier 1 capital as of June 30, 2009, but no more than 10 basis points times the institution’s assessment base for the second quarter of 2009, to be collected on September 30, 2009.  Additional special assessments may be imposed by the FDIC for future periods.  See “Results Of Operations” below for more details.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

The Corporation’s total assets increased by $9.5 million, or 2.63%, from December 31, 2008 to June 30, 2009.  Total cash and cash equivalents increased by $2.8 million and investment securities available for sale increased by $15.2 million. The increase in investments was mainly due to the purchase of  $34.1 million in securities, $19.5 million in principal pay-downs on mortgage-backed securities, a $1.0 million maturity (call) of a municipal bond and a $1.3 million increase in fair value of securities. Net loans outstanding decreased by $9.5 million.  The decrease in loans was mainly the result of declines in the following categories; $6.3 million in mortgages and $3.0 million in installment loans. The Corporation attributes the loan declines to consumer and commercial customers being cautious in the first half of 2009.

The Corporation’s total deposits increased $7.1 million from December 31, 2008 to June 30, 2009. The non-interest bearing deposits increased by $4.8 million and the interest-bearing deposits increased by $2.3 million. The increase in non-interest bearing deposits is considered a normal fluctuation in our customer’s checking accounts. The increase in the interest-bearing deposits was due to increases in checking with interest accounts, money market accounts and savings accounts offset by decreases in certificate of deposits.

The decrease in the certificates of deposits was due to the Corporation maintaining a conservative position when pricing certificate of deposits.  The Corporation attributes the increase in the other interest bearing liability accounts to customers placing their funds in liquid, FDIC insured accounts that provide flexibility and safety.

Shareholders' equity was $40.7 million on June 30, 2009 compared to $39.1 million on December 31, 2008. Total shareholders’ equity increased due to the following; the $2.3 million in net income, a $844,000 increase in other comprehensive income, due to increases in the fair value of securities available for sale, a $291,000 decrease from the purchase of treasury stock and a $1.3 million decrease from cash dividends paid to shareholders. Book value per common share increased from $13.56 at December 31, 2008 to $14.22 at June 30, 2009.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

First Six Months of 2009 as compared to the First Six Months of 2008

Net income for the first six months of 2009 was $2.3 million compared to $1.8 million for the same period of 2008, representing a 31.11% increase.  The increase is due to higher net interest income in 2009 compared with 2008.

Interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and June 30, 2008 was $9.9 million.  Loan income for the six months ended June 30, 2009 was $6.1 million compared to $6.7 million in 2008.  The decrease in loan income was due to lower average loan balances and lower yields in 2009 compared to 2008. Loan outstanding averages in 2009 were $10.9 million lower than 2008, loan yields for the first six months of 2009 decreased twenty  (20) basis points to 5.80%. This decrease in the loan yield is due to lower market rates for new loans and existing loans tied to the prime rate.  Investment income from securities increased $600,000 or 17.16% for the first six months of 2009 compared with the same period of 2008. The increase is a result of higher outstanding averages and a slightly lower yield on the securities portfolio for the first six months of 2009.   The average outstanding securities for the first six months of 2009 increased by $18.8 million or 17.52% compared to same period 2008. The yield on total average earning assets for the first six months of 2009 and 2008 was 5.86% and 6.00%, respectively.

Total interest expense of $2.4 million for the first six months of 2009 decreased  $1.1million or 31.87% compared with the first six months of 2008.  The average interest bearing liabilities in 2009 were $257.1 million, an increase of 2.46% over 2008 averages.  The cost of interest bearing liabilities decreased from 2.75% in 2008 to 1.83% in 2009.  This decrease in interest cost is due to lower cost for short-term Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) borrowings and lower market rates for certificates of deposit in 2009 compared with 2008.  In addition, average certificates of deposit decreased in 2009 compared with 2008 and were replaced by increases in lower cost non-maturity deposits and FHLB advances.

16

 
As a result of the foregoing, net interest income for the first six months of 2009 was $7.5 million compared to $6.4 million for the first six months of 2008.

The Corporation did not record a loan loss provision expense for the six months ended June 30, 2009 or June 30, 2008.

Non-interest income for the first six months of 2009 was $1.5 million, a slight decrease of $34,000 from non-interest income for the first six months of 2008.  The $34,000 decrease is the result of the following; asset management and trust income declined by $26,000 and service charges on deposit accounts decreased by $25,000, life insurance income increased by $11,000 and other income increased by $5,000.  The asset management and trust income declined in 2009 due to lower market values for assets under management due to overall market declines and service charges declined due to lower volume of overdraft fees in 2009.

Non-interest expense for the first six months of 2009 was $5.7 million, an increase of $236,000 or 4.27% from non-interest expense for the first six months of 2008. The majority of the increase was due to higher FDIC costs in 2009.  FDIC assessment for insurance premiums was $96,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2009, compared to $17,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2008; in addition, the FDIC charged a special assessment of $165,000 in 2009.  Other changes to non-interest expenses were; personnel costs decreased by $33,000, net occupancy increased $28,000, furniture and equipment expense decreased $17,000 and PA Shares Tax decreased by $10,000 and other expenses increased $11,000.

Federal income tax for the first six months of 2009 was $974,000 compared to $685,000 for the same period in 2008. The effective tax rates for the first six months of 2009 and 2008 were 29.47% and 27.82%, respectively. The effective tax rates are lower than the federal statutory rate of 34% due principally to income from tax-exempt loans, securities, and bank owned life insurance.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Three Months Ended June 30, 2009 as Compared to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2008

The Corporation’s net income for the three months ended June 30, 2009 was $1.1 million compared to $961,000 for the same period of 2008, representing a 10.40% increase.  Net income was higher mainly due to higher net interest income in 2009 compared to 2008.

Interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2009 was slightly higher by $27,000 compared to interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2008. Interest on investment income increased  $281,000 or 18.12% in 2009 compared to 2008.  This increase in investment income was due to higher average investment securities in 2009. The investments yielded 5.87% for the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared to 5.94% for the same period in 2008.  Interest and fee income from loans was $3.0 million compared with $3.3 million in 2008. The decrease was due to lower average loans outstanding in 2009 compared with averages balances in 2008, in addition loan yields decreased nineteen  (19) basis points to 5.79% from 5.98%.  The yield on total average earning assets decreased fourteen  (14) basis points to 5.82% in 2009 from 5.96% in 2008.

Interest expense during the second quarter of 2009 was $1.1 million, or $398,000 less when compared to the second quarter of 2008.  The interest bearing liability cost decreased to 1.81%, a seventy-two (72) basis points decrease from second quarter of 2008. The interest expense has declined due the lower market rates for certificates of deposits and lower cost on short-term FHLB advances.  The average interest bearing liabilities increased $8.6 million in the second quarter of 2009 compared with 2008.

As a result of the foregoing, net interest income increased $425,000 or 12.92% to $3.7 million during the second quarter of 2009 and yielded 4.05% of average total assets compared to 3.74% during the same period a year ago.

The Corporation recorded no provision for loan losses for the second quarter of 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Non-interest income decreased slightly by $19,000 or 2.46%, to $751,000 during the second quarter of 2009 compared with 2009. Asset management and trust income decreased by $16,000, service charges on deposit accounts decreased $14,000, other service charges and fees increased $6,000 and bank owned life insurance income increased $5,000.

Non-interest expense increased $256,000 during the second quarter of 2009, a 9.43% increase from the same period in 2008. The main increase in non-interest expense in 2009 was FDIC insurance cost increases, which increased by $250,000 in 2009 compared with 2008 due to higher rates assessed on insurance premiums and a $165,000 special assessment. Other non-interest expense changes; personnel costs decreased by $22,000, occupancy cost increased $19,000, legal and professional costs decreased by $8,000, other expenses increased by $30,000, and furniture and fixture costs decreased $6,000 due to lower equipment depreciation expense.

17

 
Federal income tax on second quarter 2009 pretax earnings was $433,000 compared to $383,000 a year ago. The second quarter effective tax rates for 2009 and 2008 were 28.98% and 28.49%, respectively.  The effective tax rates are lower than the federal statutory rate of 34% due principally to income from tax-exempt loans, securities, and bank owned life insurance.

LIQUIDITY

Liquidity measurements evaluate the Corporation’s ability to meet the cash flow requirements of its depositors and borrowers. The most desirable source of liquidity is deposit growth. Additional liquidity is provided by the maturity of investments in loans and securities and the principal and interest received from those earning assets. Another source of liquidity is represented by the Corporation’s ability to sell both loans and securities. The Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) system. The FHLB provides an additional source for liquidity for long- and short-term funding. Additional sources of funding from financial institutions have been established for short-term funding needs.

The statement of cash flows for the first six months of 2009, indicates cash provided by the decrease in loan balances and the maturities and calls of securities, along with cash from increase in deposits was used to purchase investment securities.

As of August 1, 2009, the Corporation had available funding of approximately $68.7 million at the FHLB, with an additional $19 million of short-term funding available through other lines of credit.  The Corporation’s maximum borrowing capacity with the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) is currently as $123.7 million, with $55 million borrowed resulting in the $68.7 million as available.

OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

The Corporation’s financial statements do not reflect off balance sheet arrangements that consist of commitments to purchase securities or commitments to extend credit. The Corporation has entered into an agreement to purchase municipal bonds securities with a settlement in July 2009. The original face for these bonds is $3.5 million, all purchased at a discount with total commitment to purchase at $3.47 million. 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 Corporation evaluates each customer's credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral, if any, which the Corporation obtains from the customer upon extension of credit, is based on management's credit evaluation of the customer or other obligor.  The types of collateral obtained by the Corporation may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment and income-producing commercial properties.

Standby letters of credit, financial standby letters of credit and commercial letters of credit written are conditional commitments issued by the Corporation 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.

The following table identifies the Corporation’s commitments to extend credit, obligations under letters of credit and commitments to purchase securities as of June 30, 2009 (dollars in thousands):

CREDIT QUALITY RISK

The following table presents a comparison of loan quality as of June 30, 2009 with that as of December 31, 2008. Cash payments received on non-accrual loans are recognized as interest income as long as the remaining balance of the loan is deemed to be fully collectible. When doubt exists as to the collectibility of a loan in non-accrual status, any payments received are applied to principal to the extent the doubt is eliminated. Once a loan is placed on non-accrual status, any unpaid interest is charged against income.

As of June 30, 2009, $110,000 of non-accrual loans were paying principal or principal and interest with payments recognized on a cash basis. The majority of renegotiated loans as of December 31, 2008 was two loans, a $2.8 million loan and a $715,000 loan relationship. These two renegotiated loan relationships are involved in the retail segment.  The $2.8 million relationship lost a sizable anchor tenant, resulting in a need for restructured terms of repayment.  Since year-end 2008, the borrower has been able to negotiate a favorable lease with a replacement tenant, therefore the loan has since returned to a current market rate and is no longer under restructured terms. At present, the Corporation has no knowledge of other outstanding loans that present a serious doubt in regard to the borrower’s ability to comply with current loan repayment terms.

CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Federal Reserve Board's risk-based capital guidelines are designed principally as a measure of credit risk. These guidelines require that: (1) at least 50% of a banking organization's total capital be common and certain other "core" equity capital ("Tier I Capital"); (2) assets and off-balance sheet items be weighted according to risk; and (3) the total capital to risk-weighted assets ratio be at least 8.00%; and (4) a minimum 4.00% leverage ratio of Tier I capital to average total assets be maintained for financial institutions that meet certain specified criteria, including asset quality, high liquidity, low interest-rate exposure and the highest regulatory rating. As of June 30, 2009, Commercial Bank & Trust of PA, under these guidelines, had Tier I and total equity capital to risk weighted assets ratios of 17.81% and 18.68% respectively. The leverage ratio was 10.26%.

ITEM 3.   QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Corporation’s primary market risk is interest rate risk. Interest rate risk arises due to timing differences between interest sensitive assets and liabilities. Interest rate management seeks to maintain a balance between consistent income growth and the risk that is created by variations in the ability to reprice deposit and investment categories. The effort to determine the effect of potential interest rate changes normally involves measuring the "gap" between assets (loans and securities) subject to rate fluctuation and liabilities (interest bearing deposits and long-term borrowings) subject to rate fluctuation as related to earning assets over different time periods and calculating the ratio of interest sensitive assets to interest sensitive liabilities.

Repricing periods for the loans, securities, interest bearing deposits and long-term borrowings are based on contractual maturities, where applicable, as well as the Corporation's historical experience regarding the impact of interest rate fluctuations on the prepayment and withdrawal patterns of certain assets and liabilities. Regular savings, NOW and other similar interest bearing demand deposit accounts are subject to immediate withdrawal without penalty. However, based upon historical performance, management considers a certain portion of the accounts to be stable core deposits and therefore are projected to reprice over a variety of time periods.

The Corporation utilizes a computer simulation analysis that projects the impact of changing interest rates on earnings. Simulation modeling projects a baseline net interest income (assuming no changes in interest rate levels) and estimates changes to that baseline resulting from changes in interest rate levels. The Corporation utilizes the results of this model in evaluating its interest rate risk. This model incorporates a number of additional factors. These factors include: (1) the expected exercise of call features on various assets and liabilities; (2) the expected rates at which various rate sensitive assets and liabilities will reprice; (3) the expected relative movements in different interest rate indexes that are used as the basis for pricing or repricing various assets and liabilities; (4) expected changes in administered rates on interest-bearing transaction, savings, money market and time deposit accounts and the expected impact of competition on the pricing or repricing of such accounts; and (5) other factors. Inclusion of these factors in the model is intended to estimate the Corporation’s changes in net interest income resulting from an immediate and sustained parallel shift in interest rates up 100, 200 and 300 basis points or 100, 200 and 300 basis points down. While the Corporation believes this model provides a useful projection of its interest rate risk, the model includes a number of assumptions and predictions that are subject to continual refinement. These assumptions and predictions include inputs to compute baseline net interest income, growth rates and a variety of other factors that are difficult to accurately predict.

The June 30, 2009 computer simulations analysis projects the following changes in net interest income based on an immediate and sustained parallel shift in interest rates for a twelve month period compared to baseline, with baseline representing no change in interest rates.  The model projects net interest income will decrease 6.0% if rates rise 100 bps, will decrease 14.3% if rates rise 200 bps and projects a 23.3% decrease of net interest income if rates rise 300 bps.  If rates decrease 100 bps, the model projects a 3.4% decrease in net interest income, a 8.5% decrease if rates decrease 200 bps and if rates decrease 300 bps, the model projects net interest income will decrease 13.1%.

Management regularly monitors the interest sensitivity position and considers this position in its decisions with regard to the Corporation’s interest rates and maturities for interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities.

ITEM 4.    CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Corporation maintains a system of disclosure controls and procedures that is designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Corporation in this Form 10-Q, and in other reports required to be filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms for such filings. Management of the Corporation, under the direction of the Corporation’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, reviewed and performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Corporation’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15a(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of June 30, 2009. Based on that review and evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, along with other key management of the Corporation, have determined that the disclosure controls and procedures were and are effective as designed to ensure that material information relating to the Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries required to be disclosed by the Corporation by the Exchange Act, was recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the applicable time periods.

Changes in Internal Controls

There have been no significant changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect our internal controls during the quarter-ended June 30, 2009.
