PART I

Item 1. Business

Community Trust Bancorp, Inc. (the "Corporation") is a bank holding company registered with the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System pursuant to Section 5(a) of the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended. The Corporation was incorporated August 12, 1980, under the laws of the Commonwealth of Kentucky for the purpose of becoming a bank holding company. At December 31, 2005, the Corporation owned all the capital stock of one commercial bank and one trust company, serving small and mid-sized communities in eastern, northeast, central, and south central Kentucky and southern West Virginia. The commercial bank is Community Trust Bank, Inc., Pikeville, Kentucky (the "Bank"). The trust company, Community Trust and Investment Company, Lexington, Kentucky (the "Trust Company"), has offices in Lexington, Pikeville, Ashland, Middlesboro, and Versailles, Kentucky. At December 31, 2005, the Corporation had total consolidated assets of $2.8 billion and total consolidated deposits of $2.4 billion, making it the largest bank holding company headquartered in the Commonwealth of Kentucky.

Effective January 1, 2003, the Bank and the Trust Company converted their charters to state charters from national associations. The Bank remained a member of the Federal Reserve System following conversion. Following its conversion, the Trust Company changed its name from Trust Company of Kentucky, National Association to Community Trust and Investment Company in order to identify more closely the Trust Company with the Bank. While the conversions resulted in some reduction in expenses, they did not result in any changes in the management or operations of the Bank or the Trust Company.

On June 10, 2005, the Bank completed the acquisition of Heritage Community Bank of Danville, Kentucky. All former Heritage Community Bank offices now operate as branch offices of Community Trust Bank, Inc. The Corporation obtained loans totaling approximately $73.7 million, cash and cash equivalents of approximately $8.1 million, and deposits totaling approximately $69.8 million from this acquisition. The total cost of the acquisition, including direct acquisition costs, was $12.4 million. Goodwill and core deposit intangible of approximately $3.9 million was recorded.

Through its subsidiaries, the Corporation engages in a wide range of commercial and personal banking and trust activities, which include accepting time and demand deposits; making secured and unsecured loans to corporations, individuals and others; providing cash management services to corporate and individual customers; issuing letters of credit; renting safe deposit boxes; and providing funds transfer services. The lending activities of the Bank include making commercial, construction, mortgage, and personal loans. Also available are lease-financing, lines of credit, revolving lines of credit, term loans, and other specialized loans including asset-based financing. The corporate subsidiaries act as trustees of personal trusts, as executors of estates, as trustees for employee benefit trusts, as registrars, transfer agents, and paying agents for bond and stock issues, as depositories for securities, and as providers of full service brokerage operations.

COMPETITION

The Corporation’s subsidiaries face substantial competition for deposit, credit, and trust relationships, as well as other sources of funding in the communities they serve. Competing providers include state banks, national banks, thrifts, trust companies, insurance companies, mortgage banking operations, credit unions, finance companies, brokerage companies, and other financial and non-financial companies which may offer products functionally equivalent to those offered by the Corporation’s subsidiaries. Many of these providers offer services within and outside the market areas served by the Corporation’s subsidiaries. The Corporation’s subsidiaries strive to offer competitively priced products along with quality customer service to build customer relationships in the communities they serve.

Since July 1989, banking legislation in Kentucky places no limits on the number of banks or bank holding companies that a bank holding company may acquire. Interstate acquisitions are allowed where reciprocity exists between the laws of Kentucky and the home state of the bank or bank holding company to be acquired. Bank holding companies continue to be limited to control of less than 15% of deposits held by banks in the states where they do business (exclusive of inter-bank and foreign deposits).

The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 (the "Gramm Act") has expanded the permissible activities of a bank holding company. The Gramm Act allows qualifying bank holding companies to elect to be treated as financial holding companies. A financial holding company may engage in activities that are financial in nature or are incidental or complementary to financial activities. The Corporation has not yet elected to be treated as a financial holding company. The Gramm Act also eliminated restrictions imposed by the Glass-Steagall Financial Services Law, adopted in the 1930s, which prevented banking, insurance, and securities firms from fully entering each other’s business. This legislation has resulted in further consolidation in the financial services industry. In addition, removal of these restrictions has increased the number of entities providing banking services and thereby created additional competition.

No material portion of the business of the Corporation is seasonal. The business of the Corporation is not dependent upon any one customer or a few customers, and the loss of any one or a few customers would not have a material adverse effect on the Corporation. See note 18 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding concentrations of credit.

The Corporation engages in no operations in foreign countries.

EMPLOYEES

As of December 31, 2005, the Corporation and its subsidiaries had 1,003 full-time equivalent employees. Employees are provided with a variety of employee benefits. A retirement plan, an employee stock ownership plan, group life insurance, major medical insurance, a cafeteria plan, and annual management and employee incentive compensation plans are available to eligible personnel.

SUPERVISION AND REGULATION

The Corporation, as a registered bank holding company, is restricted to those activities permissible under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended, and is subject to actions of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System thereunder. It is required to file an annual report with the Federal Reserve Board and is subject to an annual examination by the Board.

The Bank is a state-chartered bank subject to state and federal banking laws and regulations and to periodic examination by the Kentucky Office of Financial Institutions and to the restrictions, including dividend restrictions, thereunder. The Bank is also a member of the Federal Reserve System and is subject to certain restrictions imposed by and to examination and supervision under the Federal Reserve Act. The Trust Company is also regulated by the Kentucky Office of Financial Institutions and the Federal Reserve.

Deposits of the Bank are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, which subjects banks to regulation and examination under the provisions of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act.

The operations of the Corporation and its subsidiaries also are affected by other banking legislation and policies and practices of various regulatory authorities. Such legislation and policies include statutory maximum rates on some loans, reserve requirements, domestic monetary and fiscal policy, and limitations on the kinds of services that may be offered.

The Corporation’s annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K, and all amendments to those reports are available free of charge on the Corporation’s website at www.ctbi.com as soon as reasonably practicable after such materials are electronically filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Corporation’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics is also available on the Corporation’s website. Copies of the Corporation’s annual report will be made available free of charge upon written request.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Interest Rate Risk
Changes in interest rates could adversely affect our earnings and financial condition.

Our earnings and financial condition are dependent to a large degree upon net interest income, which is the difference between interest earned from loans and investments and interest paid on deposits and borrowings. The narrowing of interest-rate spreads, meaning the difference between the interest rates earned on loans and investments and the interest rates paid on deposits and borrowings, could adversely affect our earnings and financial condition. Interest rates are highly sensitive to many factors, including:
·  
The rate of inflation;
·  
The rate of economic growth;
·  
Employment levels;
·  
Monetary policies; and
·  
Instability in domestic and foreign financial markets.

Changes in market interest rates will also affect the level of voluntary prepayments on our loans and the receipt of payments on our mortgage-backed securities resulting in the receipt of proceeds that may be reinvested at a lower rate than the loan or mortgage-backed security being prepaid.

We originate residential loans for sale and for our portfolio. The origination of loans for sale is designed to meet client financing needs and earn fee income. The origination of loans for sale is highly dependent upon the local real estate market and the level and trend of interest rates. Increasing interest rates may reduce the origination of loans for sale and consequently the fee income we earn. While our commercial banking, construction, and income property business lines are an increasing portion of our activities, high interest rates may reduce our mortgage-banking activities and thereby our income. In contrast, decreasing interest rates have the effect of causing clients to refinance mortgage loans faster than anticipated. This causes the value of assets related to the servicing rights on loans sold to be lower than originally anticipated. If this happens, we may need to write down our servicing assets faster, which would accelerate our expense and lower our earnings.

Management considers interest rate risk one of the Corporation’s most significant market risks. Interest rate risk is the exposure to adverse changes in net interest income due to changes in interest rates. Consistency of the Corporation’s net interest revenue is largely dependent upon the effective management of interest rate risk. The Corporation employs a variety of measurement techniques to identify and manage its interest rate risk including the use of an earnings simulation model to analyze net interest income sensitivity to changing interest rates. The model is based on actual cash flows and repricing characteristics for on and off-balance sheet instruments and incorporates market-based assumptions regarding the effect of changing interest rates on the prepayment rates of certain assets and liabilities. Assumptions based on the historical behavior of deposit rates and balances in relation to changes in interest rates are also incorporated into the model. These assumptions are inherently uncertain, and as a result, the model cannot precisely measure net interest income or precisely predict the impact of fluctuations in interest rates on net interest income. Actual results will differ from simulated results due to timing, magnitude, and frequency of interest rate changes as well as changes in market conditions and management strategies.

Government Policies
Our business may be adversely affected by changes in government policies.

The earnings of banks and bank holding companies such as Community Trust Bancorp, Inc. are affected by the policies of regulatory authorities, including the Federal Reserve Board, which regulates the money supply. Among the methods employed by the Federal Reserve Board are open market operations in U.S. Government securities, changes in the discount rate on member bank borrowings, and changes in reserve requirements against member bank deposits. These methods are used in varying combinations to influence overall growth and distribution of bank loans, investments and deposits, and their use may also affect interest rates charged on loans or paid on deposits. The monetary policies of the Federal Reserve Board have had a significant effect on the operating results of commercial and savings banks in the past and are expected to continue to do so in the future.

The banking industry is highly regulated and changes in federal and state banking regulations as well as policies and administration guidelines may affect the Corporation’s practices and growth prospects.

Credit Risk
Our earnings and reputation may be adversely affected if we fail to effectively manage our credit risk.

Originating and underwriting loans are integral to the success of our business. This business requires us to take “credit risk,” which is the risk of losing principal and interest income because borrowers fail to repay loans. Collateral values and the ability of borrowers to repay their loans may be affected at any time by factors such as:
·  
A downturn in the local economies in which we operate or the national economy;
·  
A downturn in one or more of the business sectors in which our customers operate; or
·  
A rapid increase in interest rates.

Competition
Strong competition within our market area may reduce our ability to attract and retain deposits and originate loans.

We face competition both in originating loans and in attracting deposits. Competition in the financial services industry is intense. We compete for clients by offering excellent service and competitive rates on our loans and deposit products. The type of institutions we compete with include commercial banks, savings institutions, mortgage banking firms, credit unions, finance companies, mutual funds, insurance companies and brokerage and investment banking firms. As a result of their size and ability to achieve economies of scale, certain of our competitors offer a broader range of products and services than we offer. In addition, to stay competitive in our markets we may need to adjust the interest rates on our products to match the rates offered by our competitors, which could adversely affect our net interest margin. As a result, our profitability depends upon our continued ability to successfully compete in our market areas while achieving our investment objectives.

Economy
Our business may be adversely affected by downturns in the local economies on which we depend.

Our loan portfolio is concentrated primarily in eastern, northeast, central, and south central Kentucky and southern West Virginia. Our profits depend on providing products and services to clients in these local regions. An increase in unemployment, a decrease in real estate values, or continued increases in interest rates could weaken the local economies in which we operate. Weakness in our market area could depress our earnings and consequently our financial condition because:
·  
Clients may not want or need our products and services;
·  
Borrowers may not be able to repay their loans;
·  
The value of the collateral securing our loans to borrowers may decline; and
·  
The quality of our loan portfolio may decline.

Acquisition Risk
We may have difficulty in the future continuing to grow through acquisitions.

Due to the consolidation within the banking industry, the number of suitable acquisition targets has decreased and there is intense competition for attractive acquisitions. As a result, the Corporation may experience difficulty in making acquisitions on acceptable terms.

Any future acquisitions or mergers by the Corporation or its banking subsidiary are subject to approval by the appropriate federal and state banking regulators. The banking regulators evaluate a number of criteria in making their approval decisions, such as:
·  
Safety and soundness guidelines;
·  
Compliance with all laws including the USA Patriot Act of 2001, the International Money Laundering Abatement and Anti-Terrorist Financing Act of 2001, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the related rules and regulations promulgated under such Act or the Exchange Act, the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, the Fair Housing Act, the Community Reinvestment Act, the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act, and all other applicable fair lending laws and other laws relating to discriminatory business practices; and
·  
Anti-competitive concerns with the proposed transaction.

If the banking regulators or a commenter on our regulatory application raise concerns about any of these criteria at the time a regulatory application is filed, the banking regulators may deny, delay, or condition their approval of a proposed transaction.

We have grown, and intend to continue to grow, through acquisitions of banks and other financial institutions. After these acquisitions, we may experience adverse changes in results of operations of acquired entities, unforeseen liabilities, asset quality problems of acquired entities, loss of key personnel, loss of clients because of change of identity, difficulties in integrating data processing and operational procedures, and deterioration in local economic conditions. These various acquisition risks can be heightened in larger transactions.

Integration Risk
We may not be able to achieve the expected integration and cost savings from our ongoing bank acquisition activities.

We have a long history of acquiring financial institutions and we expect this acquisition activity to continue in the future. Difficulties may arise in the integration of the business and operations of the financial institutions that agree to merge with and into the Corporation and, as a result, we may not be able to achieve the cost savings and synergies that we expect will result from the merger activities. Achieving cost savings is dependent on consolidating certain operational and functional areas, eliminating duplicative positions and terminating certain agreements for outside services. Additional operational savings are dependent upon the integration of the banking businesses of the acquired financial institution with that of the Corporation, including the conversion of the acquired entity’s core operating systems, data systems and products to those of the Corporation and the standardization of business practices. Complications or difficulties in the conversion of the core operating systems, data systems, and products of these other banks to those of the Corporation may result in the loss of clients, damage to our reputation within the financial services industry, operational problems, one-time costs currently not anticipated by us, and/or reduced cost savings resulting from the merger activities.

Operational Risk
An extended disruption of vital infrastructure could negatively impact our business, results of operations, and financial condition.

Our operations depend upon, among other things, our infrastructure, including equipment and facilities. Extended disruption of vital infrastructure by fire, power loss, natural disaster, telecommunications failure, computer hacking or viruses, terrorist activity or the domestic and foreign response to such activity, or other events outside of our control could have a material adverse impact on the financial services industry as a whole and on our business, results of operations, cash flows, and financial condition in particular. Our business recovery plan may not work as intended or may not prevent significant interruption of our operations. The occurrence of any failures, interruptions, or security breaches of the Corporation's information systems could damage the Corporation's reputation, result in the loss of customer business, subject the Corporation to additional regulatory scrutiny or expose the Corporation to civil litigation and possible financial liability, any of which could have an adverse effect on the Corporation's financial condition and results of operation.

Market Risk
Community Trust Bancorp, Inc.'s stock price is volatile.

The Corporation's stock price has been volatile in the past, and several factors could cause the price to fluctuate substantially in the future. These factors include:
·  
Actual or anticipated variations in earnings;
·  
Changes in analysts' recommendations or projections;
·  
The Corporation's announcements of developments related to its businesses;
·  
Operating and stock performance of other companies deemed to be peers;
·  
New technology used or services offered by traditional and non-traditional competitors; and
·  
News reports of trends, concerns, and other issues related to the financial services industry.

The Corporation's stock price may fluctuate significantly in the future, and these fluctuations may be unrelated to the Corporation's performance. General market price declines or market volatility in the future could adversely affect the price of its common stock, and the current market price may not be indicative of future market prices.

The calculations of the weighted average interest rates for each maturity category are based upon yield weighted by the respective costs of the securities. The weighted average rates on state and political subdivisions are computed on a taxable equivalent basis using a 35% tax rate. For purposes of the above presentation, maturities of mortgage-backed pass through certificates and collateralized mortgage obligations are based on estimated maturities.

Excluding those holdings of the investment portfolio in U.S. Treasury securities and other agencies of the U.S. Government, there were no securities of any one issuer that exceeded 10% of the shareholders’ equity of the Corporation at December 31, 2005.

The book values of securities available-for-sale and securities held-to-maturity as of December 31, 2005 and 2004 are presented in note 4 to the consolidated financial statements.

The book value of securities at December 31, 2003 is presented below:

In 2005, gross interest income that would have been recorded on nonaccrual loans had the loans been current in accordance with their original terms amounted to $1.3 million. Interest income actually received and included in net income for the period was $0.1 million, leaving $1.3 million of interest income not recognized during the period.

Discussion of the Nonaccrual Policy

The accrual of interest income on loans is discontinued when the collection of interest and principal in full is not expected. When interest accruals are discontinued, interest income accrued in the current period is reversed and interest income accrued in prior periods is charged to the allowance for loan losses. Any loans past due 90 days or more must be well secured and in the process of collection to continue accruing interest.

Potential Problem Loans

Interest accrual is discontinued when management believes, after considering economic and business conditions, collateral value, and collection efforts, that the borrower’s financial condition is such that collection of interest is doubtful. Any loan greater than 90 days past due must be well secured and in the process of collection to continue accruing interest.

Foreign Outstandings

None

Loan Concentrations

The Corporation had no concentration of loans exceeding 10% of total loans at December 31, 2005. See note 18 to the consolidated financial statements for further information.

The allowance for loan losses balance is maintained by management at a level considered adequate to cover anticipated probable losses based on past loss experience, general economic conditions, information about specific borrower situations including their financial position and collateral values, and other factors and estimates which are subject to change over time. This analysis is completed quarterly and forms the basis for allocation of the loan loss reserve and what charges to the provision may be required. See note 1 to the consolidated financial statements for further information.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Overview

Community Trust Bancorp, Inc. reported record earnings of $34.4 million for 2005 compared to $31.0 million for 2004 and $28.9 million for 2003. Basic earnings per share for 2005 were $2.31 compared to $2.09 per share for 2004 and $1.95 per share for 2003. Basic earnings per share for the year 2005 reflects the Corporation’s seventh consecutive year of increased earnings per share.

Return on average assets for 2005 was 1.22% compared to 1.22% and 1.16% in 2004 and 2003, respectively. Return on average equity for 2005 was 13.98% compared to 13.48% and 13.43% in 2004 and 2003, respectively.

The Corporation's assets grew 5.2%, or $140.1 million, during the year 2005. Asset growth obtained through the Danville acquisition which occurred in June 2005 totaled $88.9 million. The loan portfolio grew $204.8 million during the year with growth occurring in all three major loan categories—commercial, residential real estate, and consumer loans. Loans obtained in the Danville acquisition totaled $73.7 million. The investment portfolio decreased $74.3 million during the year as maturing investments were used to partially fund the increased loan portfolio. Total deposits and repurchase agreements of $2.4 billion at December 31, 2005 reflected growth of 6.6%, or $146.9 million, over prior year-end. Deposits obtained in the Danville acquisition totaled $69.8 million.

Acquisitions

On June 10, 2005, Community Trust Bank, Inc., the bank subsidiary of Community Trust Bancorp, Inc., completed the acquisition of Heritage Community Bank of Danville, Kentucky. All former Heritage Community Bank offices now operate as branch offices of Community Trust Bank, Inc. The Corporation obtained loans totaling approximately $73.7 million, cash and cash equivalents of approximately $8.1 million, and deposits totaling approximately $69.8 million from this acquisition. The total cost of the acquisition, including direct acquisition costs, was $12.4 million. Goodwill and core deposit intangible of approximately $3.9 million was recorded.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the appropriate application of certain accounting policies, many of which require us to make estimates and assumptions about future events and their impact on amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements and related notes. Since future events and their impact cannot be determined with certainty, the actual results will inevitably differ from our estimates. Such differences could be material to the consolidated financial statements.

We believe the application of accounting policies and the estimates required therein are reasonable. These accounting policies and estimates are constantly reevaluated, and adjustments are made when facts and circumstances dictate a change. Historically, we have found our application of accounting policies to be appropriate, and actual results have not differed materially from those determined using necessary estimates.

Our accounting policies are more fully described in note 1 to the consolidated financial statements. We have identified the following critical accounting policies:

Loans - Loans are reported at the carrying value of unpaid principal reduced by unearned interest and an allowance for loan losses. Income is recorded on the level yield basis. Interest accrual is discontinued when management believes, after considering economic and business conditions, collateral value, and collection efforts, that the borrower’s financial condition is such that collection of interest is doubtful. Any loan greater than 90 days past due must be well secured and in the process of collection to continue accruing interest. Cash payments received on nonaccrual loans generally are applied against principal, and interest income is only recorded once principal recovery is reasonably assured. Loans are not reclassified as accruing until principal and interest payments are brought current and future payments appear reasonably certain.

Allowance for Loan Losses - The adequacy of the allowance is reviewed quarterly by management using a methodology that includes several key factors. The Corporation utilizes an internal risk grading system for commercial credits, and those larger commercial credits identified through this grading system as having weaknesses are individually reviewed for the customer's ability and potential to repay their loans. The customer’s cash flow, adequacy of collateral held for the loan, and other options available to the Corporation including legal avenues are all evaluated. Based upon this individual credit evaluation, a specific allocation to the allowance may be made for the loan.

For other commercial loans that are not individually evaluated, an allowance allocation is determined by applying an eight-quarter moving average historical loss rate for this group of loans. Consumer installment and residential mortgage loans are not individually risk graded. Allowance allocations are provided for these pools of loans based upon an eight-quarter moving average historical loss rate for each of these categories of loans.

An unallocated portion of the allowance is also determined in recognition of the inherent inability to precisely determine the loss potential in any particular loan or pool of loans. The factors considered by management in determining this amount of inherent risk include delinquency trends, current economic conditions and trends, strength of the supervision and administration of the loan portfolio, level of nonperforming loans, trend in loan losses, recovery rates associated with previously charged-off loans, concentrations within commercial credits, problem loan identification strengths and weaknesses, collateral evaluation strengths and weaknesses, and the level of financial statement exceptions. These factors are reviewed quarterly and weighted as deemed appropriate by management. The total of these weighted factors is then applied against the total loan portfolio and the allowance is adjusted accordingly.

Investments - Management determines the classification of securities at purchase. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, the Corporation classifies securities into held-to-maturity or available-for-sale categories. Held-to-maturity securities are those which the Corporation has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity and are reported at amortized cost. Available-for-sale securities are those the Corporation may decide to sell if needed for liquidity, asset/liability management, or other reasons. Available-for-sale securities are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses included as a separate component of shareholders’ equity, net of tax. If declines in fair value are not temporary, the carrying value of the securities is written down to fair value as a realized loss.

Gains or losses on disposition of securities are computed by specific identification for all securities except for shares in mutual funds, which are computed by average cost. Interest and dividend income, adjusted by amortization of purchase premium or discount, is included in earnings.

Loans Held for Sale - Mortgage loans originated and intended for sale in the secondary market are carried at the lower of cost or estimated market value in the aggregate. Net unrealized losses, if any, are recognized in a valuation allowance by charges to income.

Goodwill - The Corporation evaluates total goodwill for impairment, based upon SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets and SFAS No. 147, Acquisitions of Certain Financial Institutions, using fair value techniques including multiples of price/equity. Goodwill is evaluated for impairment on an annual basis.

Segments - Management analyzes the operation of the Corporation assuming one operating segment, community banking services. The Corporation, through its operating subsidiaries, offers a wide range of consumer and commercial community banking services. These services include: (i) residential and commercial real estate loans; (ii) checking accounts; (iii) regular and term savings accounts and savings certificates; (iv) full service securities brokerage services; (v) consumer loans; (vi) debit cards; (vii) annuity and life insurance products; (viii) Individual Retirement Accounts and Keogh plans; (ix) commercial loans; (x) trust services; and (xi) commercial demand deposit accounts.

New Accounting Standards

Ø  Accounting for Certain Loans and Debt Securities Acquired in a Transfer - In December 2003, the Accounting Standards Executive Committee of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued Statement of Position ("SOP") 03-3, Accounting for Certain Loans and Debt Securities Acquired in a Transfer. SOP 03-3 addresses the accounting for certain acquired loans that show evidence of credit deterioration since their origination (i.e. impaired loans) and for which a loss is deemed probable of occurring. SOP 03-3 prohibits the carryover of an allowance for loan loss on certain acquired loans within its scope. SOP 03-3 is effective for loans that are acquired in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2004. The adoption of this Statement had no material effect on the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements.

Ø  Stock-Based Employee Compensation - The Corporation currently maintains two incentive stock option plans covering key employees; however, only one plan is active. The 1998 Stock Option Plan ("1998 Plan") was approved by the Board of Directors and the Shareholders in 1998. The 1998 Plan had 1,046,831 shares authorized, 252,981 of which were available at December 31, 2005 for future grants. All options granted have a maximum term of ten years. Options granted as management retention options vest after five years; all other options vest ratably over four years.

Had compensation cost for the Corporation’s stock options granted in 2005, 2004, and 2003 been determined under the fair value approach described in SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, the Corporation’s net income and earnings per share would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts indicated below:

The fair value of the options presented above was estimated at the date of the grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions for 2005, 2004, and 2003, respectively: risk-free interest rates of 3.92%, 3.70%, and 2.69%, dividend yields of 3.11%, 3.02%, and 3.29%, volatility factors of the expected market price of the Corporation’s common stock of 0.960, 0.756, and 0.593, and a weighted average expected option life of 6.5, 6.8, and 4.0 years.

In December 2004, SFAS No. 123R, Share-Based Payment, was issued. SFAS No. 123R is a revision of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25. Among other items, SFAS No. 123R eliminates the use of APB Opinion No. 25 and the intrinsic value method of accounting and requires companies to recognize the cost of employee services received in exchange for awards of equity instruments, based on the grant date fair value of those awards, in the financial statements. The effective date of SFAS No. 123R for the Corporation is January 1, 2006.

SFAS No. 123R permits companies to adopt its requirements using either a "modified prospective" method, or a "modified retrospective" method. Under the "modified prospective" method, the compensation cost is recognized in the financial statements beginning with the effective date, based on the requirements of SFAS No. 123R for all share-based payments granted after that date, and based on the requirements of SFAS No. 123 for all unvested awards granted prior to the effective date of SFAS No. 123R. Under the "modified retrospective" method, the requirements are the same as under the "modified prospective" method, but this method also permits entities to restate financial statements of previous periods based on pro forma disclosures made in accordance with SFAS No. 123. The Corporation currently utilizes a standard option pricing model (i.e., Black-Scholes) to measure the fair value of stock options granted to employees. While SFAS No. 123R permits entities to continue to use such a model, the standard also permits the use of a "lattice" model. The Corporation has not yet determined which model it will use to measure the fair value of employee stock options upon the adoption of SFAS No. 123R. SFAS No. 123R also requires that the benefits associated with the tax deductions in excess of recognized compensation cost be reported as a financing cash flow, rather than as an operating cash flow as required under current literature. This requirement will reduce net operating cash flows and increase net financing cash flows in periods after the effective date. These future amounts cannot be estimated, because they depend on, among other things, when employees exercise stock options. However, the amount of operating cash flows recognized in prior periods for such excess tax deductions, as shown in the Corporation's Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, were $0.7 million, $0.3 million, and $0.2 million, respectively for 2005, 2004, and 2003. The Corporation has not yet determined which of the aforementioned adoption methods it will use.

Ø  Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations - In March 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Interpretation No. 47, Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations ("FIN 47"), to clarify the term "conditional asset retirement" as used in SFAS 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations. FIN 47 requires that a liability be recognized for the fair value of a conditional asset retirement obligation when incurred, if the fair value of the liability can be reasonably estimated. Uncertainty about the timing or method of settlement of a conditional asset retirement obligation would be factored into the measurement of the liability when sufficient information exists. This interpretation is effective no later than the end of fiscal years ending after December 15, 2005. Accordingly, the Corporation will adopt FIN 47 no later than the fourth fiscal quarter in 2006. Management is currently assessing the impact FIN 47 may have on the Corporation's consolidated balance sheet; however, the adoption of FIN 47 is not expected to have a material impact on the Corporation's financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Results of Operations

2005 Compared to 2004

Net income for 2005 was $34.4 million compared to $31.0 million in 2004. The increase in net income was primarily driven by a 10.7% increase in net interest income. See the Net Interest Income section below for further information. Basic earnings per share for 2005 were $2.31 compared to $2.09 per share for 2004. The average shares outstanding in 2005 and 2004 were 14.9 million and 14.8 million, respectively.

Net interest income for 2005 was $103.2 million compared to $93.2 million in 2004. Noninterest income was $33.5 million compared to $33.9 million in 2004 and noninterest expense was $78.6 million compared to $74.6 million in 2004. See the Noninterest Income and Noninterest Expense sections below for further information.

Return on average assets was 1.22% for 2005 and 2004, and return on average equity increased 50 basis points from 13.48% for 2004 to 13.98% for 2005.

Net Interest Income:

The Corporation's net interest margin for the year 2005 decreased 2 basis points from 4.05% to 4.03%. However, the net interest margin for the quarter ended December 31, 2005 of 4.12% was a 15 basis point increase from the quarter ended December 31, 2004 and an increase of 4 basis points from prior quarter. The increase in the net interest margin for the quarter was primarily the result of the increased yield on average earning assets attributable to the reallocation of earning assets from the investment portfolio to the higher yielding loan portfolio. The yield on average earning assets for the fourth quarter 2005 increased 87 basis points from the fourth quarter 2004 and 30 basis points from the third quarter 2005. For further information, see the table titled "Consolidated Average Balance Sheets and Taxable Equivalent Income/Expense and Yields/Rates" in the Selected Statistical Information.

Average earning assets were $2.6 billion for the year 2005 compared to $2.3 billion for 2004. Average interest bearing liabilities were $2.1 billion for the year 2005 compared to $1.9 billion for 2004. Average interest bearing liabilities as a percentage of average earning assets were 81.8% for the year ended December 31, 2005 compared to 82.0% for the year ended December 31, 2004.

The taxable equivalent yield on average earning assets was 6.22% for 2005 compared to 5.65% in 2004. The cost of average interest bearing liabilities was 2.68% for 2005 compared to 1.94% for 2004. Although the increase in cost of average interest bearing liabilities surpassed the increase in yield on average earning assets by 17 basis points, the net interest margin only decreased 2 basis points because average interest bearing deposits including repurchase agreements increased 7.0% during 2005 while average noninterest bearing deposits increased 11.5%. The yield on interest bearing assets has been impacted by the change in the earning asset mix between the loan portfolio and the investment portfolio as well as by the change in market rates. Average loans accounted for 77.9% of average earning assets in 2005 and 77.7% of average earning assets in 2004. Average loans accounted for 71.9% of total average assets for the year ended December 31, 2005 compared to 71.4% for the year ended December 31, 2004. Total loans as a percentage of total assets as of December 31, 2005 and 2004 were 74.0% and 70.2%, respectively.

Provision for Loan Losses and Allowance for Loan Losses:

The provision for loan losses that was added to the allowance was $8.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2005 compared to $8.6 million for 2004. This provision represents a charge against current earnings in order to maintain the allowance at an appropriate level determined using the accounting estimates described in the Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates section. Loan losses, net of recoveries, as a percentage of average loans outstanding were 0.37% in 2005 compared to 0.35% in 2004 as net loan losses were $7.6 million for 2005 compared to $6.3 million for 2004.

Our reserve for losses on loans as a percentage of total loans outstanding decreased from 1.42% as of December 31, 2004 to 1.40% as of December 31, 2005.

Nonperforming loans at December 31, 2005 were $21.4 million, or 1.0% of total loans, compared to $20.1 million, or 1.1% of total loans at December 31, 2004. Foreclosed properties at December 31, 2005 were $5.4 million compared to $4.8 million on December 31, 2004.

Noninterest Income:

Noninterest income for the year ended December 31, 2005 decreased 1.3% from prior year. The following table displays the annual activity in the various significant noninterest income accounts.

The increase in recurring revenue sources from the year ended 2004 to the year ended 2005 including deposit related fees, loan related fees, and trust revenue was offset by the decline in nonrecurring other revenue items and a decline in gains on sales of loans due to the rising interest rate environment.

Noninterest Expense:

Noninterest expense for the year ended December 31, 2005 increased 5.3% to $78.6 million from the $74.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2004. The increase in noninterest expense from prior year was primarily attributable to an increase of $3.0 million in personnel expense due to normal salary increases, the filling of budgeted key positions, the Danville bank acquisition, and new branch openings. Occupancy and equipment expense increased $1.3 million from 2004 to 2005 also as a result of the Danville bank acquisition and new branch openings during the year.

The efficiency ratio for the year ended December 31, 2005 improved to 56.83% from the 58.25% for the year ended December 31, 2004. The deposit (including repurchase agreements) to FTE (full-time equivalent) ratio increased to $2.4 million at December 31, 2005 from $2.3 million at December 31, 2004.

2004 Compared to 2003

Net income for 2004 was $31.0 million compared to $28.9 million for 2003. The increase in net income was primarily driven by a 10.2% increase in net interest income, as interest income increased 1.5% and interest expense decreased 15.3%. See the Net Interest Income section below for further information. Basic earnings per share for 2004 were $2.09 compared to $1.95 per share for 2003. The average shares outstanding in 2004 and 2003 were 14.8 million.

Net interest income for 2004 was $93.2 million compared to $84.6 million in 2003. Noninterest income was $33.9 million compared to $36.4 million in 2003 and noninterest expense was $74.6 million compared to $70.7 million in 2003. See the Noninterest Income and Noninterest Expense sections below for further information.

Return on average assets was 1.22% for 2004 compared to 1.16% in 2003, and return on average equity for 2004 was 13.48% compared to 13.43% in 2003.

Net Interest Income:

The Corporation's net interest margin of 4.05% was a 29 basis point increase from the 3.76% for the year ended December 31, 2003. For further information, see the table titled "Consolidated Average Balance Sheets and Taxable Equivalent Income/Expense and Yields/Rates" in the Selected Statistical Information.

Average earning assets were $2.3 billion at December 31, 2004 and at December 31, 2003. Average interest bearing liabilities were $1.9 billion at December 31, 2004 and at December 31, 2003. Average interest bearing liabilities as a percentage of average earning assets were 82.0% at December 31, 2004 compared to 83.7% in 2003.

The taxable equivalent yield on average earning assets was 5.65% for 2004 compared to 5.68% in 2003. The cost of average interest bearing liabilities was 1.94% for 2004 compared to 2.29% for 2003. The yield on interest bearing assets was impacted by the change in the earning asset mix between the loan portfolio and the investment portfolio as well as by the change in market rates. Average loans accounted for 72.3% of average earning assets in 2003 while average loans accounted for 77.7% of average earning assets in 2004. Average loans accounted for 66.5% of total average assets for the year ended December 31, 2003 compared to 71.4% for the year ended December 31, 2004. Total loans as a percentage of total assets as of December 31, 2004 and 2003 were 70.2%.

Provision for Loan Losses and Allowance for Loan Losses:

The provision for loan losses that was added to the allowance was $8.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2004 compared to $9.3 million for 2003. This provision represented a charge against current earnings in order to maintain the allowance at an appropriate level determined using the accounting estimates described in the Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates section. Loan losses, net of recoveries, as a percentage of average loans outstanding were 0.35% in 2004 compared to 0.48% in 2003 as net loan losses were $6.3 million for 2004 compared to $8.0 million for 2003. 

Our reserve for losses on loans as a percentage of total loans outstanding remained flat at 1.42% as of December 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003.

Nonperforming loans at December 31, 2004 of $20.1 million, or 1.1% of total loans, increased from the $16.9 million, or 1.0% of total loans, at December 31, 2003. The Corporation's continued focus on liquidation of foreclosed properties has resulted in the decrease of foreclosed properties to $4.8 million on December 31, 2004 from the $6.6 million reported at December 31, 2003. Foreclosed properties consist primarily of 1-4 family residential real estate. Nonperforming assets at December 31, 2004 were $24.9 million compared to $23.5 million at December 31, 2003.

Noninterest Income:

Noninterest income for the year ended December 31, 2004 decreased 6.7% from prior year. The following table displays the annual activity in the various significant noninterest income accounts.

Noninterest Expense:

Noninterest expense for the year ended December 31, 2004 of $74.6 million was a 5.5% increase from the $70.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. The increase in noninterest expense from prior year was primarily attributable to increased personnel expense due to the filling of budgeted key positions and the accrual of a performance-based incentive in the amount of $2.3 million. No incentive accrual was booked in 2003. The Corporation’s performance incentive plan requires a performance incentive payment to eligible employees if the Corporation reaches goals established by the Board of Directors. These goals were not met in 2003; however, they were met for the year 2004.

The efficiency ratio for the year ended December 31, 2004 improved almost 100 basis points to 58.25% from the 59.17% for the year ended December 31, 2003. The deposit to FTE (full-time equivalent) ratio decreased to $2.2 million at December 31, 2004 from $2.3 million at December 31, 2003.

Liquidity and Market Risk

The objective of the Corporation’s Asset/Liability management function is to maintain consistent growth in net interest income within the Corporation’s policy limits. This objective is accomplished through management of the Corporation’s consolidated balance sheet composition, liquidity, and interest rate risk exposures arising from changing economic conditions, interest rates, and customer preferences. The goal of liquidity management is to provide adequate funds to meet changes in loan and lease demand or unexpected deposit withdrawals. This is accomplished by maintaining liquid assets in the form of cash and cash equivalents and investment securities, maintaining sufficient unused borrowing capacity, and growth in core deposits. As of December 31, 2005, the Corporation had approximately $122.2 million in cash and cash equivalents and approximately $395.6 million in securities valued at estimated fair value designated as available-for-sale and available to meet liquidity needs on a continuing basis. Additional asset-driven liquidity is provided by the remainder of the securities portfolio and the repayment of loans. In addition to core deposit funding, the Corporation also accesses a variety of other short-term and long-term funding sources. The Corporation also relies on Federal Home Loan Bank advances for both liquidity and management of its asset/liability position. Federal Home Loan Bank advances were $122.8 million at December 31, 2005 compared to $162.4 million at December 31, 2004. As of December 31, 2005, the Corporation had a $261.0 million available borrowing position with the Federal Home Loan Bank. The Corporation generally relies upon net inflows of cash from financing activities, supplemented by net inflows of cash from operating activities, to provide cash for its investing activities. As is typical of many financial institutions, significant financing activities include deposit gathering, use of short-term borrowing facilities such as repurchase agreements and federal funds purchased, and issuance of long-term debt. At December 31, 2005, the Corporation had a $12 million revolving line of credit, all of which is currently available to meet any future cash needs. The Corporation’s primary investing activities include purchases of securities and loan originations. Management does not rely on any one source of liquidity and manages availability in response to changing consolidated balance sheet needs.

The Corporation’s stock repurchase program began in December 1998 with the authorization to acquire up to 500,000 shares and was increased by an additional 1,000,000 shares in July 2000. The Corporation issued a press release on May 13, 2003 announcing its intention to repurchase up to 1,000,000 additional shares. During the year 2005, the Corporation did not acquire shares of the Corporation’s stock. As of December 31, 2005, a total of 1,921,481 shares have been repurchased through this program. The following table shows Board authorizations and repurchases made through the stock repurchase program for the years 1998 through 2005:

Management considers interest rate risk one of the Corporation’s most significant market risks. Interest rate risk is the exposure to adverse changes in net interest income due to changes in interest rates. Consistency of the Corporation’s net interest revenue is largely dependent upon the effective management of interest rate risk. The Corporation employs a variety of measurement techniques to identify and manage its interest rate risk including the use of an earnings simulation model to analyze net interest income sensitivity to changing interest rates. The model is based on actual cash flows and repricing characteristics for on and off-balance sheet instruments and incorporates market-based assumptions regarding the effect of changing interest rates on the prepayment rates of certain assets and liabilities. Assumptions based on the historical behavior of deposit rates and balances in relation to changes in interest rates are also incorporated into the model. These assumptions are inherently uncertain, and as a result, the model cannot precisely measure net interest income or precisely predict the impact of fluctuations in interest rates on net interest income. Actual results will differ from simulated results due to timing, magnitude, and frequency of interest rate changes as well as changes in market conditions and management strategies.

The Corporation’s Asset/Liability Management Committee (ALCO), which includes executive and senior management representatives and reports to the Board of Directors, monitors and manages interest rate risk within Board-approved policy limits. The Corporation’s current exposure to interest rate risks is determined by measuring the anticipated change in net interest income over a twelve-month period assuming a 200 basis point increase or decrease in rates, spread evenly over the twelve-month period. The following table shows the Corporation’s estimated earnings sensitivity profile as of December 31, 2005:

Change in Interest Rates
(basis points)
Percentage Change in Net Interest Income
(12 Months)
+200
5.11%
-200
(5.32)%

The following table shows the Corporation’s estimated earnings sensitivity profile as of December 31, 2004:

Change in Interest Rates
(basis points)
Percentage Change in Net Interest Income
(12 Months)
+200
5.26%
-200
(5.42)%

The simulation model used a 200 basis point increase in the yield curve spread evenly over a twelve-month period. The measurement at December 31, 2005 estimates that net interest income for the Corporation would increase by 5.11% over one year. A 200 basis point immediate and sustained decrease in interest rates would decrease net interest income by 5.32% over one year. In order to reduce the exposure to interest rate fluctuations and to manage liquidity, the Corporation has developed sale procedures for several types of interest-sensitive assets. Virtually all long-term, fixed rate single family residential mortgage loans underwritten according to Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation guidelines are sold for cash upon origination. Periodically, additional assets such as commercial loans are also sold. In 2005 and 2004, $66.9 million and $68.6 million, respectively, was realized on the sale of fixed rate residential mortgages. Management focuses its efforts on consistent net interest revenue and net interest margin growth through each of the retail and wholesale business lines. The Corporation does not currently engage in trading activities.

Capital Resources

The Corporation continues to grow its shareholders’ equity while also providing an average annual dividend yield during 2005 of 3.19% to shareholders. Shareholders’ equity of $253.9 million on December 31, 2005 was a 7.5% increase from the $236.2 million on December 31, 2004. The primary source of capital growth for the Corporation is retained earnings. Cash dividends were $0.98 per share for 2005 and $0.87 per share for 2004. The Corporation retained 57.6% of its earnings in 2005 compared to 58.4% in 2004.

Regulatory guidelines require bank holding companies, commercial banks, and savings banks to maintain certain minimum capital ratios and define companies as "well-capitalized" that sufficiently exceed the minimum ratios. The banking regulators may alter minimum capital requirements as a result of revising their internal policies and their ratings of individual institutions. To be "well-capitalized" banks and bank holding companies must maintain a Tier 1 leverage ratio of no less than 5.0%, a Tier 1 risk based ratio of no less than 6.0%, and a total risk based ratio of no less than 10.0%. The Corporation’s ratios as of December 31, 2005 were 8.94%, 11.52%, and 12.76%, respectively. Community Trust Bancorp, Inc. and it subsidiaries met the criteria for "well-capitalized" at December 31, 2005. See note 20 to the consolidated financial statements for further information.

Upon the early adoption of FIN 46 effective July 1, 2003, the Corporation deconsolidated CTBI Preferred Capital Trust and CTBI Preferred Capital Trust II, resulting in a recharacterization of the underlying consolidated debt obligations from the previous trust preferred securities obligations to junior subordinated debenture obligations. Under the current Federal Reserve Board’s regulatory framework, the junior subordinated debenture obligations both qualify as total capital for regulatory capital purposes. The Federal Reserve Board is currently evaluating whether these capital securities should continue to qualify as Tier 1 capital as a result of deconsolidating the related trust preferred securities in accordance with generally accepted accounting principals. If the Federal Reserve Board disallows the capital securities as Tier 1 regulatory capital, the effect of such a change could have a material impact on the Corporation’s regulatory ratios.

As of December 31, 2005, management is not aware of any current recommendations by banking regulatory authorities which, if they were to be implemented, would have, or are reasonably likely to have, a material adverse impact on the Corporation’s liquidity, capital resources, or operations.

Impact of Inflation, Changing Prices, and Local Economic Conditions

The majority of the Corporation’s assets and liabilities are monetary in nature. Therefore, the Corporation differs greatly from most commercial and industrial companies that have significant investments in non-monetary assets, such as fixed assets and inventories. However, inflation does have an important impact on the growth of assets in the banking industry and on the resulting need to increase equity capital at higher than normal rates in order to maintain an appropriate equity to assets ratio. Inflation also affects other expenses, which tend to rise during periods of general inflation.

Management believes the most significant impact on financial and operating results is the Corporation’s ability to react to changes in interest rates. Management seeks to maintain an essentially balanced position between interest sensitive assets and liabilities in order to protect against the effects of wide interest rate fluctuations.

Our success is dependent on the general economic conditions of the communities we serve. Unlike larger banks that are more geographically diversified, we provide financial and banking services primarily to eastern, northeast, central, and south central Kentucky and southern West Virginia. The economic conditions in these areas have a significant impact on loan demand, the ability of borrowers to repay loans, and the value of the collateral securing loans. A significant decline in general economic conditions will affect these local economic conditions and will negatively affect the financial results of our banking operations. Factors influencing general conditions include inflation, recession, unemployment, and other factors beyond our control.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation - The consolidated financial statements include Community Trust Bancorp, Inc. (the "Corporation") and its subsidiaries, including its principal subsidiary, Community Trust Bank, Inc. (the "Bank"). Intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management must make certain estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the amounts reported for assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, as well as affecting the disclosures provided. Future results could differ from the current estimates. Such estimates include, but are not limited to, the allowance for loan losses, fair value of securities and mortgage servicing rights, and goodwill (the excess of cost over net assets acquired).

Nature of Operations - Substantially all assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses are related to banking operations, including lending, investing of funds, obtaining of deposits, trust operations, full service brokerage operations, and other financing activities. All of the Corporation’s business offices and the majority of its business are located in eastern, northeast, central, and south central Kentucky and southern West Virginia.

Cash and Cash Equivalents - Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, amounts due from banks, interest bearing deposits in other financial institutions, and federal funds sold. Generally, federal funds are sold for one-day periods.

Investments - Management determines the classification of securities at purchase. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, the Corporation classifies securities into held-to-maturity or available-for-sale categories. Held-to-maturity securities are those which the Corporation has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity and are reported at amortized cost. Available-for-sale securities are those the Corporation may decide to sell if needed for liquidity, asset/liability management, or other reasons. Available-for-sale securities are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses included as a separate component of shareholders’ equity, net of tax. If declines in fair value are not temporary, the carrying value of the securities is written down to fair value as a realized loss.

Gains or losses on disposition of securities are computed by specific identification for all securities except for shares in mutual funds, which are computed by average cost. Interest and dividend income, adjusted by amortization of purchase premium or discount, is included in earnings.

Loans - Loans are reported at the carrying value of unpaid principal reduced by unearned interest and an allowance for loan losses. Income is recorded on the level yield basis. Interest accrual is discontinued when management believes, after considering economic and business conditions, collateral value, and collection efforts, that the borrower’s financial condition is such that collection of interest is doubtful. Any loan greater than 90 days past due must be well secured and in the process of collection to continue accruing interest. Cash payments received on nonaccrual loans generally are applied against principal, and interest income is only recorded once principal recovery is reasonably assured. Loans are not reclassified as accruing until principal and interest payments are brought current and future payments appear reasonably certain.

Allowance for Loan Losses - The adequacy of the allowance is reviewed quarterly by management using a methodology that includes several key factors. The Corporation utilizes an internal risk grading system for commercial credits, and those larger commercial credits identified through this grading system as having weaknesses are individually reviewed for the customer's ability and potential to repay their loans. The borrower’s cash flow, adequacy of collateral held for the loan, and other options available to the Corporation including legal avenues are all evaluated. Based upon this individual credit evaluation, a specific allocation to the allowance may be made for the loan.

For other commercial loans that are not individually evaluated, an allowance allocation is determined by applying an eight-quarter moving average historical loss rate for this group of loans. Consumer installment and residential mortgage loans are not individually risk graded. Allowance allocations are provided for these pools of loans based upon an eight-quarter moving average historical loss rate for each of these categories of loans.

An unallocated portion of the allowance is also determined in recognition of the inherent inability to precisely determine the loss potential in any particular loan or pool of loans. The factors considered by management in determining this amount of inherent risk include delinquency trends, current economic conditions and trends, strength of the supervision and administration of the loan portfolio, level of nonperforming loans, trend in loan losses, recovery rates associated with previously charged-off loans, concentrations within commercial credits, problem loan identification strengths and weaknesses, collateral evaluation strengths and weaknesses, and the level of financial statement exceptions. These factors are reviewed quarterly and weighted as deemed appropriate by management. The total of these weighted factors is then applied against the total loan portfolio and the allowance is adjusted accordingly.

Loans Held for Sale - Mortgage loans originated and intended for sale in the secondary market are carried at the lower of cost or estimated market value in the aggregate. Net unrealized losses, if any, are recognized in a valuation allowance by charges to income.

Valuation of Servicing Rights - When the Corporation sells loans through individual loan sales in accordance with its investment policies, it often retains servicing rights. Servicing rights resulting from loan sales are amortized in proportion to and over the period of estimated net servicing revenues.  Servicing rights are assessed for impairment quarterly, based on fair value, with temporary impairment recognized through a valuation allowance and permanent impairment recognized through a write-off of the servicing asset and related valuation allowance. Key economic assumptions used in measuring any potential impairment of the servicing rights include the prepayment speeds of the underlying loans, the weighted average life of the loan, the discount rate, the weighted average coupon, and the weighted average default rate, as applicable. The primary risk of material changes to the value of the servicing rights resides in the potential volatility in the economic assumptions used, particularly prepayment speeds and interest rate volatility.

The Corporation monitors risk and adjusts its valuation allowance as necessary to adequately reserve for any probable impairment in the portfolio. For purposes of measuring impairment, the servicing rights are stratified based on the financial asset type and interest rates. The Corporation obtains an independent third-party valuation of mortgage servicing rights on a quarterly basis. Fees received for servicing loans owned by investors are based on a percentage of the outstanding monthly principal balance of such loans and are included in noninterest income as loan payments are received. Costs of servicing loans are charged to expense as incurred.

Premises and Equipment - Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Capital leases are included in premises and equipment at the capitalized amount less accumulated amortization.

Depreciation and amortization are computed primarily using the straight-line method. Estimated useful lives range up to 40 years for buildings, 2 to 10 years for furniture, fixtures, and equipment, and up to the lease term for leasehold improvements. Capitalized leased assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the lives of the respective leases.
 
Other Real Estate - Real estate acquired by foreclosure is carried at the lower of the investment in the property or its fair value. Other real estate owned by the Corporation included in other assets at December 31, 2005 and 2004 was $5.4 million and $4.8 million, respectively.

Goodwill - The Corporation evaluates total goodwill for impairment, based upon SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets and SFAS No. 147, Acquisitions of Certain Financial Institutions, using fair value techniques including multiples of price/equity. Goodwill is evaluated for impairment on an annual basis.

  Income Taxes - Income tax expense is based on the taxes due on the consolidated tax return plus deferred taxes based on the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates.

Earnings Per Share ("EPS") - Basic EPS is calculated by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.

Diluted EPS adjusts the number of weighted average shares of common stock outstanding under the treasury stock method, which includes the dilutive effect of stock options.

Segments - Management analyzes the operation of the Corporation assuming one operating segment, community banking services. The Corporation, through its operating subsidiaries, offers a wide range of consumer and commercial community banking services. These services include: (i) residential and commercial real estate loans; (ii) checking accounts; (iii) regular and term savings accounts and savings certificates; (iv) full service securities brokerage services; (v) consumer loans; (vi) debit cards; (vii) annuity and life insurance products; (viii) Individual Retirement Accounts and Keogh plans; (ix) commercial loans; (x) trust services; and (xi) commercial demand deposit accounts.

Bank Owned Life Insurance - The Corporation's bank owned life insurance policies are carried at their cash surrender value. The Corporation recognizes tax-free income from the periodic increases in cash surrender value of these policies and from death benefits.

News Accounting Standards -

Ø  Accounting for Certain Loans and Debt Securities Acquired in a Transfer - In December 2003, the Accounting Standards Executive Committee of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued Statement of Position ("SOP") 03-3, Accounting for Certain Loans and Debt Securities Acquired in a Transfer. SOP 03-3 addresses the accounting for certain acquired loans that show evidence of credit deterioration since their origination (i.e. impaired loans) and for which a loss is deemed probable of occurring. SOP 03-3 prohibits the carryover of an allowance for loan loss on certain acquired loans within its scope. SOP 03-3 is effective for loans that are acquired in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2004. The adoption of this Statement had no material effect on the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements.

Ø  Stock-Based Employee Compensation - The Corporation currently maintains two incentive stock option plans covering key employees; however, only one plan is active. The 1998 Stock Option Plan ("1998 Plan") was approved by the Board of Directors and the Shareholders in 1998. The 1998 Plan had 1,046,831 shares authorized, 252,981 of which were available at December 31, 2005 for future grants. All options granted have a maximum term of ten years. Options granted as management retention options vest after five years; all other options vest ratably over four years.

Had compensation cost for the Corporation’s stock options granted in 2005, 2004, and 2003 been determined under the fair value approach described in SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, the Corporation’s net income and earnings per share would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts indicated below:

The fair value of the options presented above was estimated at the date of the grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions for 2005, 2004, and 2003, respectively: risk-free interest rates of 3.92%, 3.70%, and 2.69%, dividend yields of 3.11%, 3.02%, and 3.29%, volatility factors of the expected market price of the Corporation’s common stock of 0.960, 0.756, and 0.593, and a weighted average expected option life of 6.5, 6.8, and 4.0 years.

In December 2004, SFAS No. 123R, Share-Based Payment, was issued. SFAS No. 123R is a revision of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25. Among other items, SFAS No. 123R eliminates the use of APB Opinion No. 25 and the intrinsic value method of accounting and requires companies to recognize the cost of employee services received in exchange for awards of equity instruments, based on the grant date fair value of those awards, in the financial statements. The effective date of SFAS No. 123R for the Corporation is January 1, 2006.

SFAS No. 123R permits companies to adopt its requirements using either a "modified prospective" method, or a "modified retrospective" method. Under the "modified prospective" method, the compensation cost is recognized in the financial statements beginning with the effective date, based on the requirements of SFAS No. 123R for all share-based payments granted after that date, and based on the requirements of SFAS No. 123 for all unvested awards granted prior to the effective date of SFAS No. 123R. Under the "modified retrospective" method, the requirements are the same as under the "modified prospective" method, but this method also permits entities to restate financial statements of previous periods based on pro forma disclosures made in accordance with SFAS No. 123. The Corporation currently utilizes a standard option pricing model (i.e., Black-Scholes) to measure the fair value of stock options granted to employees. While SFAS No. 123R permits entities to continue to use such a model, the standard also permits the use of a "lattice" model. The Corporation has not yet determined which model it will use to measure the fair value of employee stock options upon the adoption of SFAS No. 123R. SFAS No. 123R also requires that the benefits associated with the tax deductions in excess of recognized compensation cost be reported as a financing cash flow, rather than as an operating cash flow as required under current literature. This requirement will reduce net operating cash flows and increase net financing cash flows in periods after the effective date. These future amounts cannot be estimated, because they depend on, among other things, when employees exercise stock options. However, the amount of operating cash flows recognized in prior periods for such excess tax deductions, as shown in the Corporation's Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, were $0.7 million, $0.3 million, and $0.2 million, respectively for 2005, 2004, and 2003. The Corporation has not yet determined which of the aforementioned adoption methods it will use.

Ø  Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations - In March 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Interpretation No. 47, Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations ("FIN 47"), to clarify the term "conditional asset retirement" as used in SFAS 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations. FIN 47 requires that a liability be recognized for the fair value of a conditional asset retirement obligation when incurred, if the fair value of the liability can be reasonably estimated. Uncertainty about the timing or method of settlement of a conditional asset retirement obligation would be factored into the measurement of the liability when sufficient information exists. This interpretation is effective no later than the end of fiscal years ending after December 15, 2005. Accordingly, the Corporation will adopt FIN 47 no later than the fourth fiscal quarter in 2006. Management is currently assessing the impact FIN 47 may have on the Corporation's consolidated balance sheet; however, the adoption of FIN 47 is not expected to have a material impact on the Corporation's financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Reclassification - Certain reclassifications have been made in the prior year consolidated financial statements to conform to current year classifications.

2. Business Combinations

On June 10, 2005, Community Trust Bank, Inc., the bank subsidiary of Community Trust Bancorp, Inc., completed the acquisition of Heritage Community Bank of Danville, Kentucky. All former Heritage Community Bank offices now operate as branch offices of Community Trust Bank, Inc. The Corporation obtained loans totaling approximately $73.7 million, cash and cash equivalents of approximately $8.1 million, and deposits totaling approximately $69.8 million from this acquisition. The total cost of the acquisition, including direct acquisition costs, was $12.4 million. Goodwill and core deposit intangible of approximately $3.9 million was recorded.

3. Cash and Due from Banks

Included in cash and due from banks is noninterest bearing deposits that are required to be held at the Federal Reserve or maintained in vault cash in accordance with regulatory reserve requirements. The balance requirements were $40.0 million and $36.8 million at December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Cash paid during the years ended 2005, 2004, and 2003 for interest was $55.1 million, $36.4 million, and $45.4 million, respectively. Cash paid during the same periods for income taxes was $13.1 million, $11.5 million and $9.3 million, respectively.

Not included in the loan balances above are loans held for sale in the amount of $0.1 million at December 31, 2005.

The amount of loans on a non-accruing income status was $12.2 million, $13.8 million, and $9.7 million at December 31, 2005, December 31, 2004, and December 31, 2003, respectively. The total of loans on nonaccrual that are in homogeneous pools and not evaluated individually for impairment were $4.1 million, $5.0 million, and $3.2 million at December 31, 2005, December 31, 2004, and December 31, 2003, respectively. Additional interest which would have been recorded during 2005, 2004, and 2003 if such loans had been accruing interest was approximately $1.3 million, $0.9 million, and $0.9 million, respectively.

  At December 31, 2005, 2004, and 2003, the recorded investment in impaired loans was $8.1 million, $8.8 million, and $6.5 million, respectively. Included in these amounts at December 31, 2005, 2004, and 2003, respectively, were $5.1 million, $6.8 million, and $3.1 million of impaired loans for which specific reserves for loan losses are carried in the amounts of $2.3 million, $3.1 million, and $1.1 million. The average investment in impaired loans for 2005, 2004, and 2003 was $9.0 million, $8.9 million, and $6.6 million, respectively, while interest income of $0.1 million, $0.1 million, and $0.1 million was recognized on cash payments of $1.6 million, $0.4 million, and $0.4 million.

At December 31, 2005, 2004, and 2003, loans serviced for the benefit of others (primarily FHLMC) totaled $372 million, $377 million, and $383 million, respectively. Servicing loans for others generally consists of collecting mortgage payments, maintaining escrow accounts, disbursing payments to investors, and processing foreclosures. Net loan servicing income (expense) reflected in the above table includes amortization of servicing rights noted below and loan servicing income of $0.9 million for each of the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004, and 2003.

The fair value of capitalized mortgage servicing rights was $3.7 million, $3.6 million, and $3.7 million at December 31, 2005, 2004, and 2003, respectively. Fair value for the year ended December 31, 2005 was determined by a third party valuation using a discount rate of 9.14%, prepayment speeds ranging from 130% to 327%, depending on the stratification of the specific right, and a weighted average default rate of 1.1%.

Amortization expense for the next five years is estimated at approximately $0.6 million annually; however, actual amortization expense will be impacted by serviced loan payoffs that occur during each year.

7. Related Party Transactions

In the ordinary course of business, the Corporation’s banking subsidiary has made loans at prevailing interest rates and terms to directors and executive officers of the Corporation or its subsidiaries, including their associates (as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission). Management believes such loans were made on substantially the same terms, including interest rate and collateral, as those prevailing at the same time for comparable transactions with other persons. The aggregate amount of these loans at January 1, 2005 was $31.7 million. During 2005, activity with respect to these loans included new loans of $5.6 million, repayment of $3.4 million, and a net decrease of $1.1 million resulting from the change in status of executive officers and directors. As a result of these activities, the aggregate balance of these loans was $32.8 million at December 31, 2005.

On June 10, 2005, the net deferred tax asset recorded as a result of the Danville acquisition totaled $1.5 million. The largest component of the temporary difference was Heritage Community Bank's net operating loss carryfoward which totaled $1.1 million at the time of acquisition.

The Corporation reports income taxes on the liability method, which places primary emphasis on the valuation of current and deferred tax assets and liabilities. The amount of income tax expense recognized for a period is the amount of income taxes currently payable or refundable, plus or minus the change in aggregate deferred tax assets and liabilities. The method focuses first on the consolidated balance sheet, and the amount of income tax expense is determined by changes in the components of the consolidated balance sheet.

14. Employee Benefits

The Corporation has a KSOP plan covering substantially all employees. Half of the first 8% of wages contributed by an employee is matched and goes into the savings and retirement portion of the plan. Employees may contribute additional non-matched amounts up to maximum limits provided by IRS regulations, and the Corporation may at its discretion, contribute an additional percentage of covered employees’ gross wages.

The Corporation currently contributes 4% of covered employees’ gross wages to the employee stock ownership plan (ESOP) portion of the plan. The ESOP uses the contribution to acquire shares of the Corporation’s common stock. The KSOP plan owned 1,105,393 shares of Corporation stock at December 31, 2005. Substantially all shares owned by the KSOP were allocated to employees’ accounts at December 31, 2005. The market price of the shares at the date of allocation is essentially the same as the market price at the date of purchase.

The total retirement plan expense, including KSOP expense, for 2005, 2004, and 2003 was $2.0 million, $1.8 million and $1.6 million, respectively.

The Corporation currently maintains two incentive stock option plans covering key employees; however, only one plan is active. The 1998 Stock Option Plan ("1998 Plan") was approved by the Board of Directors and the Shareholders in 1998. The 1998 Plan had 1,046,831 shares authorized, 252,981 of which were available at December 31, 2005 for future grants. All options granted have a maximum term of ten years. Options granted as management retention options vest after five years; all other options vest ratably over four years.

The Corporation has elected to follow APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees and related interpretations in accounting for its employee stock options. Under APB Opinion No. 25, because the exercise price of all employee stock options equals the market price of the underlying stock on the date of the grant, no compensation expense is recognized.

The Corporation’s stock option activity for the 1998 Plan for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004, and 2003 is summarized as follows:

16. Fair Market Value of Financial Instruments

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value:

Cash and Cash Equivalents - The carrying amount approximates fair value.

Securities - Fair values are based on quoted market prices or dealer quotes.

Loans and Loans Held for Sale - The fair value of fixed rate loans and variable rate mortgage loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities. For other variable rate loans, the carrying amount approximates fair value.

FHLB Stock - The carrying value of Federal Home Loan Bank stock approximates fair value based on the redemption provisions of the Federal Home Loan Bank.

Deposits - The fair value of deposits is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.

Short-term Borrowings - The carrying amount approximates fair value.

Advances from Federal Home Loan Bank - The fair value of these fixed-maturity advances is estimated by discounting future cash flows using rates currently offered for advances of similar remaining maturities.

Long-term Debt - The fair value is estimated by discounting future cash flows using current rates.

Other Financial Instruments - The estimated fair value for other financial instruments and off-balance sheet loan commitments approximates cost at December 31, 2005 and 2004. Off-balance sheet loan commitments at December 31, 2005 and 2004 were $435.9 million and $366.1 million, respectively.

Commitments to Extend Credit - The fair value of commitments to extend credit is based upon the difference between the interest rate at which the Corporation is committed to make the loans and the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities, adjusted for the estimated volume of loan commitments actually expected to close. The fair value of such commitments is not material.

17. Off-Balance Sheet Transactions and Guarantees

The Bank is a party to transactions with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include standby letters of credit and commitments to extend credit in the form of unused lines of credit. The Bank uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments.

At December 31, the Bank had the following off-balance sheet financial instruments, whose approximate contract amounts represent additional credit risk to the Corporation:

Commitments to extend credit
   
380,904
   
326,784
 

Standby letters of credit represent conditional commitments to guarantee the performance of a third party. The credit risk involved is essentially the same as the risk involved in making loans. At December 31, 2005, the Corporation maintained a credit loss reserve of approximately $20 thousand relating to these financial standby letters of credit. The reserve coverage calculation was determined using essentially the same methodology used for the allowance for loan losses. Approximately 93% of the total standby letters of credit are secured, with $36.4 million of the total $54.9 million secured by cash. Collateral for the remaining secured standby letters of credit varies but is comprised primarily of accounts receivable, inventory, property, equipment, and income-producing properties.

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. The Bank evaluates each customer’s credit-worthiness on a case-by-case basis. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. A portion of the commitments is to extend credit at fixed rates. Fixed rate loan commitments at December 31, 2005 of $20.9 million had interest rates and terms ranging predominantly from 5.00% to 6.99% and 6 months to 1 year, respectively. These credit commitments were based on prevailing rates, terms, and conditions applicable to other loans being made at December 31, 2005.

18. Concentrations of Credit Risk

The Corporation’s banking subsidiary grants commercial, residential, and consumer loans to customers primarily located in eastern, northeast, central, and south central Kentucky and southern West Virginia. The Bank is continuing to manage all components of its portfolio mix in a manner to reduce risk from changes in economic conditions. Concentrations of credit, as defined for regulatory purposes, are reviewed quarterly by management to ensure that internally established limits based on Tier 1 Capital plus the allowance for loan losses are not exceeded. At December 31, 2005 and 2004, the Corporation’s concentration of hotel/motel industry credits were 44% and 41% of Tier 1 Capital plus the allowance for loan losses, respectively. Coal mining and related support industries credits at December 31, 2005 and 2004 based on established limits were 39% and 37% of Tier 1 Capital plus the allowance for loan losses, respectively. Lessors of residential buildings and dwellings credits at December 31, 2005 and 2004 were 31% and 26% of Tier 1 Capital plus the allowance for loan losses, respectively. Single family construction credits at December 31, 2005 and 2004 were 30% and 22% of Tier 1 Capital plus the allowance for loan losses, respectively. These percentages are within the Corporation’s internally established limits regarding concentrations of credit.

19. Commitments and Contingencies

The Corporation and its subsidiaries, and from time to time, its officers are named defendants in legal actions arising from ordinary business activities. Management, after consultation with legal counsel, believes these actions are without merit or that the ultimate liability, if any, will not materially affect the Corporation’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

20. Regulatory Matters

The Corporation’s principal source of funds is dividends received from the subsidiary bank. Regulations limit the amount of dividends that may be paid by the Corporation’s banking subsidiary without prior approval. During 2006, approximately $37.4 million plus any 2006 net profits can be paid by the Corporation’s banking subsidiary without prior regulatory approval.

The Federal Reserve Bank adopted quantitative measures which assign risk weightings to assets and off-balance sheet items and also define and set minimum regulatory capital requirements (risk-based capital ratios). All banks are required to have a minimum Tier 1 (core capital) leverage ratio of 4% of adjusted quarterly average assets, Tier 1 capital of at least 4% of risk-weighted assets, and total capital of at least 8% of risk-weighted assets. Tier 1 capital consists principally of shareholders’ equity including capital-qualifying subordinated debt but excluding unrealized gains and losses on securities available-for-sale, less goodwill and certain other intangibles. Total capital consists of Tier 1 capital plus certain debt instruments and the reserve for credit losses, subject to limitation. Failure to meet certain capital requirements can initiate certain actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the consolidated financial statements of the Corporation. The regulations also define well-capitalized levels of Tier 1 leverage, Tier 1, and total capital as 5%, 6%, and 10%, respectively. The Corporation had Tier 1 leverage, Tier 1, and total capital ratios above the well-capitalized levels at December 31, 2005 and 2004. Management believes, as of December 31, 2005, the Corporation meets all capital adequacy requirements for which it is subject to be defined as well-capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action.

Under the current Federal Reserve Board’s regulatory framework, certain capital securities offered by wholly owned unconsolidated trust preferred entities of the Corporation are included as Tier 1 regulatory capital. On March 1, 2005, the Federal Reserve Board adopted a final rule that allows the continued limited inclusion of trust preferred securities in the Tier 1 capital of bank holding companies ("BHCs"). Under the final rule, trust preferred securities and other restricted core capital elements are subject to stricter quantitative limits. The Board's final rule limits restricted core capital elements to 25 percent of all core capital elements, net of goodwill less any associated deferred tax liability. Internationally active BHCs, defined as those with consolidated assets greater than $250 billion or on-balance sheet foreign exposure greater than $10 billion, are subject to a 15 percent limit, but they may include qualifying mandatory convertible preferred securities up to the generally applicable 25 percent limit. Amounts of restricted core capital elements in excess of these limits generally may be included in Tier 2 capital. The final rule provides a five-year transition period, ending March 31, 2009, for application of the quantitative limits. The requirement for trust preferred securities to include a call option has been eliminated, and standards for the junior subordinated debt underlying trust preferred securities eligible for Tier 1 capital treatment have been clarified. The final rule addresses supervisory concerns, competitive equity considerations, and the accounting for trust preferred securities. The final rule also strengthens the definition of regulatory capital by incorporating longstanding Board policies regarding the acceptable terms of capital instruments included in banking organizations' Tier 1 or Tier 2 capital. The final rule did not have a material impact on the Corporation's regulatory ratios.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders
Community Trust Bancorp, Inc.
Pikeville, Kentucky

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial condition of Community Trust Bancorp, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Corporation”) as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2005. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Corporation’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated 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. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Community Trust Bancorp, Inc. and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2005, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the effectiveness of the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005, based on the criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated March 9, 2006 expressed an unqualified opinion on management's assessment of the effectiveness of the Corporation's internal control over financial reporting and an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of the Corporation's internal control over financial reporting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders
Community Trust Bancorp, Inc.
Pikeville, Kentucky

We have audited management's assessment, included in the accompanying Management Report on Internal Control, that Community Trust Bancorp, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Corporation”) maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Because management's assessment and our audit were conducted to meet the reporting requirements of Section 112 of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act (FDICIA), management's assessment and our audit of the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting included controls over the preparation of the schedules equivalent to the basic financial statements in accordance with the instructions for the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council Instructions for Consolidated Reports of Condition and Income for Schedules RC, RI, and RI-A. The Corporation’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on management's assessment and an opinion on the effectiveness of the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audit 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 effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, evaluating management's assessment, testing, and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinions.

A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the company's principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the company's board of directors, management, and other personnel 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. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of the inherent limitations of internal control over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Also, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, management's assessment that the Corporation maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005, is fairly stated, in all material respects, based on the criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Also, in our opinion, the Corporation maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005, based on the criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

We have not examined and, accordingly, we do not express an opinion or any other form of assurance on management's statement referring to compliance with laws and regulations.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2005 of the Corporation and our report dated March 9, 2006 expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures

The Corporation's management is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective disclosure controls and procedures, as defined under Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. As of December 31, 2005, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Executive Vice President/Treasurer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Corporation's disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, management concluded that disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2005 were effective in ensuring material information required to be disclosed in this annual report on Form 10-K was recorded, processed, summarized, and reported on a timely basis. Additionally, there were no changes in the Corporation's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the year ended December 31, 2005 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Corporation's internal control over financial reporting.

Management's responsibilities related to establishing and maintaining effective disclosure controls and procedures include maintaining effective internal controls over financial reporting that are designed to produce reliable financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. There have been no significant changes in the Corporation's internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to December 31, 2005.
 

 

MANAGEMENT REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL

We, as management of Community Trust Bancorp, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“the Corporation”), are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the company’s principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the company’s board of directors, management and other personnel, 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 and includes those policies and procedures that:

·  
Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company;

·  
Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and

·  
Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention of overriding controls. Accordingly, even effective internal control can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation. Further, because of changes in conditions, the effectiveness of internal control may vary over time.

Because of the inherent limitations, any system of internal control over financial reporting, no matter how well designed, may not prevent or detect misstatements due to the possibility that a control can be circumvented or overridden or that misstatements due to error or fraud may occur that are not detected. Also, projections of the effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that the internal controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies and procedures included in such controls may deteriorate.

Management has evaluated the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005 based on the control criteria established in a report entitled Internal Control—Integrated Framework, issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on such evaluation, we have concluded that the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting is effective as of December 31, 2005.

The registered independent public accounting firm of Deloitte & Touche LLP, as auditors of the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements, has issued an attestation report on management’s assessment of the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting.
