Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (which consist of normal recurring accruals) necessary, to present fairly the condensed consolidated financial position as of September 30, 2009, the results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, and the cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008.  In accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information, these statements do not include certain information and footnote disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete annual financial statements.  The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, and the cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.  The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2008 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements of Community Trust Bancorp, Inc. (“CTBI”) for that period.  For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2008, included in CTBI’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.
 
Principles of Consolidation – The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CTBI and its separate and distinct, wholly owned subsidiaries Community Trust Bank, Inc. (the “Bank”) and Community Trust and Investment Company.  All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
Reclassifications – Certain reclassifications considered to be immaterial have been made in the prior year condensed consolidated financial statements to conform to current year classifications.  These reclassifications had no effect on net income.

These financial statements consider events that occurred through November 6, 2009, the date the financial statements were issued.

New Accounting Standards

Ø Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions Are Participating Securities – This Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 260 (formerly FASB Staff Position (FSP) EITF 03-6-1) addresses whether instruments granted in share-based payment transactions are participating securities prior to vesting and, therefore, need to be included in the earnings allocation in computing earnings per share under the two-class method described in ASC 260-10-45 (formerly paragraphs 60 and 61 of FASB Statement No. 128, Earnings Per Share).  This standard was effective January 1, 2009, and did not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Ø Business Combinations (Revised 2007) The FASB issued ASC 805 (formerly FAS 141(R) Business Combinations), which applies to all transactions and other events in which one entity obtains control over one or more other businesses.  ASC 805 requires an acquirer, upon initially obtaining control of another entity, to recognize the assets, liabilities, and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree at fair value as of the acquisition date.  Contingent consideration is required to be recognized and measured at fair value on the date of acquisition rather than at a later date when the amount of that consideration may be determinable beyond a reasonable doubt.  This fair value approach replaces the cost-allocation process previously required whereby the cost of an acquisition was allocated to the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair value.  ASC 805 also requires acquirers to expense acquisition-related costs as incurred rather than allocating such costs to the assets acquired and liabilities.  Under ASC 805, the requirements of ASC 420 (formerly FAS 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities), would have to be met in order to accrue for a restructuring plan in purchase accounting.  Pre-acquisition contingencies are to be recognized at fair value, unless it is a non-contractual contingency that is not likely to materialize, in which case, nothing should be recognized in purchase accounting, and instead, that contingency would be subject to the probable and estimable recognition criteria of ASC 450 (formerly FAS 5, Accounting for Contingencies).  This standard defines a bargain purchase as a business combination in which the total acquisition date fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired exceeds the fair value of the consideration transferred plus any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree, and it requires the acquirer to recognize that excess in earnings as a gain attributable to the acquirer.  ASC 805 is effective for business combinations occurring after January 1, 2009.

Ø Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly – ASC 820 (formerly FSP FAS 157-4) affirms that the objective of fair value when the market for an asset is not active is the price that would be received to sell the asset in an orderly transaction and clarifies and includes additional factors for determining whether there has been a significant decrease in market activity for an asset when the market for that asset is not active.  ASC 820 requires an entity to base its conclusion about whether a transaction was not orderly on the weight of the evidence.  This standard is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009.  CTBI did not elect to early adopt.  This standard did not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Ø Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments – ASC 320 (formerly FSP FAS 115-2 and FSP FAS 124-2) (i) changes existing guidance for determining whether an impairment is other than temporary to debt securities and (ii) replaces the existing requirement that the entity’s management assert it has both the intent and ability to hold an impaired security until recovery with a requirement that management assert: (a) it does not have the intent to sell the security; and (b) it is more likely than not it will not have to sell the security before recovery of its cost basis. Under ASC 320, declines in the fair value of held-to-maturity and available-for-sale securities below their cost that are deemed to be other than temporary are reflected in earnings as realized losses to the extent the impairment is related to credit losses.  The amount of the impairment related to other factors is recognized in other comprehensive income.  This standard is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009.  CTBI did not elect to early adopt.  This standard did not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Ø Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments – ASC 825 (formerly FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1) requires an entity to provide disclosures about fair value of financial instruments in interim financial information and requires those disclosures in summarized financial information at interim reporting periods. Under this ASC, a publicly traded company shall include disclosures about the fair value of its financial instruments whenever it issues summarized financial information for interim reporting periods. In addition, entities must disclose, in the body or in the accompanying notes of its summarized financial information for interim reporting periods and in its financial statements for annual reporting periods, the fair value of all financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value, whether recognized or not recognized in the statement of financial position.  This standard did not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Ø Accounting for Assets Acquired and Liabilities Assumed in a Business Combination That Arise from Contingencies – ASC 805 (formerly FSP FAS 141(R)-1) requires that assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination that arise from contingencies be recognized at fair value if fair value can be reasonably estimated.  If fair value of such an asset or liability cannot be reasonably estimated, the asset or liability would generally be recognized in accordance with ASC 450 (formerly FAS 5, Accounting for Contingencies and FASB Interpretation No. (FIN) 14, Reasonable Estimation of the Amount of a Loss).  ASC 805 removes subsequent accounting guidance for assets and liabilities arising from contingencies and requires entities to develop a systematic and rational basis for subsequently measuring and accounting for assets and liabilities arising from contingencies.  This standard also eliminates the requirement to disclose an estimate of the range of outcomes of recognized contingencies at the acquisition date.  For unrecognized contingencies, entities are required to include only the disclosures required by ASC 450 (formerly FAS 5). The standard also requires that contingent consideration arrangements of an acquiree assumed by the acquirer in a business combination be treated as contingent consideration of the acquirer and should be initially and subsequently measured at fair value in accordance with the standard.  This standard is effective for assets or liabilities arising from contingencies CTBI acquires in business combinations occurring after January 1, 2009.

Ø Disclosure of Subsequent Events – In May 2009, the FASB issued ASC 855 (formerly FAS 165, Subsequent Events).  ASC 855 establishes the period after the balance sheet date during which management shall evaluate events or transactions that may occur for potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements and the circumstances under which an entity shall recognize events or transactions that occur after the balance sheet date.  This standard also requires disclosure of the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated.  The new standard became effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009.  CTBI adopted this standard for the interim reporting period ending June 30, 2009. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on CTBI’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Ø Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets – In June 2009, the FASB issued ASC 860 (formerly FAS 166, Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets — An Amendment of FAS 140).  ASC 860 removes the concept of a qualifying special-purpose entity and limits the circumstances in which a financial asset, or portion of a financial asset, should be derecognized when the transferor has not transferred the entire financial asset to an entity that is not consolidated with the transferor in the financial statements being presented and/or when the transferor has continuing involvement with the transferred financial asset.  The new standard will become effective on January 1, 2010.  CTBI is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.

Ø Determining When to Consolidate Variable Purpose Entities – In June 2009, the FASB issued ASC 810 (formerly FAS 167 — Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R)).  ASC 810 requires an entity to perform an analysis to determine whether an entity’s variable interest or interests give it a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity.  This standard requires ongoing reassessments of whether an entity is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity and enhanced disclosures that provide more transparent information about an entity’s involvement with a variable interest entity.  The new standard will become effective on January 1, 2010.  CTBI is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this standard on the consolidated financial statements.

Ø Codification of Authoritative Accounting Principles – In June 2009, the FASB issued ASC 105 (formerly FAS 168, The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles).  ASC 105 establishes the FASB Accounting Standards Codification as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Rules and interpretative releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission under federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. The new standard became effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009.  The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on CTBI’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.
 
Ø Disclosures Regarding Postretirement Benefit Plan Assets – In December 2008, the FASB issued ASC 715 (formerly FSP FAS 132(R)-1, Employers’ Disclosures about Postretirement Benefit Plan Assets).  This standard requires disclosure of the fair value of each major category of plan assets for pension plans and other postretirement benefit plans.  The new standard becomes effective for CTBI on January 1, 2010.  CTBI is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this standard on the consolidated financial statements, but it is not expected to have a material impact.

Note 2 – Stock-Based Compensation
 
CTBI’s compensation expense related to stock option grants was $353 thousand and $505 thousand, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.  Restricted stock expense for the first nine months of 2009 and 2008 was $67 thousand and $40 thousand, respectively.  As of September 30, 2009, there was a total of $0.6 million of unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested stock option awards that will be recognized as expense as the awards vest over a weighted average period of 1.3 years.
 
There were options to purchase 9,000 shares of CTBI common stock and 5,710 shares of restricted stock granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2009.  The options were granted pursuant to the terms of the 2006 Stock Ownership Incentive Plan, with an exercise price per share of $29.82 (equal to fair market value on date of grant), a term of 10 years, and vesting in five years.   The restrictions on the restricted stock will lapse at the end of five years.  However, in the event of a change in control of CTBI or the death of the participant, the restrictions will lapse.  In the event of the disability of the participant, the restrictions will lapse on a pro rata basis (with respect to 20% of the participant’s restricted stock for each year since the date of award). The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors will have discretion to review and revise restrictions applicable to a participant’s restricted stock in the event of the participant’s retirement.  There were options to purchase 63,700 shares of CTBI common stock and 11,076 shares of restricted stock granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2008.
 
The fair values of options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, were established at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the weighted average assumptions as follows:

Note 3 – Securities
 
Securities are classified into held-to-maturity and available-for-sale categories.  Held-to-maturity securities are those that CTBI has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity and are reported at amortized cost.  Available-for-sale securities are those that CTBI 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 or losses included as a separate component of equity, net of tax.

There were gains on sales of securities in the amount of $0.5 million realized during the first nine months of 2009 and a $4 thousand loss on the sale of a municipal bond.  There was a combined loss of $14.5 million realized in 2008 due to other than temporary impairment charges on auction rate securities and a $50 thousand loss on the sale of auction rate securities.
 
Securities in the amount of $275 million and $276 million at September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively, were pledged to secure public deposits, trust funds, and repurchase agreements.
 
CTBI evaluates its investment portfolio on a quarterly basis for impairment.  The analysis performed as of September 30, 2009 indicates that all impairment is considered temporary, market driven, and not credit-related.  The following tables provide the amortized cost, gross unrealized losses, and fair market value, aggregated by investment category and length of time the individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position as of September 30, 2009.

Mortgage loans serviced for others are not included in the accompanying balance sheets.  Loans serviced for the benefit of others (primarily FHLMC) were $416.5 million at September 30, 2009 and $349 million at December 31, 2008.  Servicing loans for others generally consists of collecting mortgage payments, maintaining escrow accounts, disbursing payments to investors, and processing foreclosures.  Custodial escrow balances maintained in connection with the foregoing loan servicing, and included in demand deposits, were approximately $1.5 million at September 30, 2009 compared to $0.4 million at December 31, 2008.

Changes in valuation inputs or assumptions (3)
    402       (27 )
Fair value, end of period
  $ 3,070     $ 3,154  

(1)  
Represents decrease in value due to regularly scheduled loan principal payments and partial loan paydowns.
(2)  
Represents decrease in value due to loans that paid off during the period.
(3)  
Represents change in value resulting from market-driven changes in interest rates and prepayment speeds.
 
The fair value of capitalized mortgage servicing rights was $3.1 million at September 30, 2009 compared to $2.2 million at December 31, 2008 and $3.2 million at September 30, 2008.  Fair values were determined by third-party valuations using a discount rate of 10.0% for the quarters ended September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, and 9.5% for the quarter ended September 30, 2008 and weighted average default rates of 1.8%, 1.7% and 1.4% respectively.  Prepayment speeds generated using the Andrew Davidson Prepayment Model averaged 16.3% at September 30, 2009 compared to 20.7% at December 31, 2008 and 11.6% at September 30, 2008.  MSR values are very sensitive to movement in interest rates as expected future net servicing income depends on the projected balance of the underlying loans, which can be greatly impacted by the level of prepayments.  CTBI does not currently hedge against changes in the fair value of its MSR portfolio.

Note 8 – Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities
 
Effective January 1, 2008, CTBI adopted ASC 820 (formerly FAS 157, Fair Value Measurements).  This standard defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.  ASC 820 applies whenever other standards require (or permit) assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value but does not expand the use of fair value in any new circumstances.  In this standard, the FASB clarifies the principle that fair value should be based on the assumptions market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability.  In support of this principle, ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the information used to develop those assumptions.  The fair value hierarchy is as follows:

Level 1 Inputs – Unadjusted quoted process in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.

Level 2 Inputs - Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These might include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.

Level 3 Inputs - Unobservable inputs for determining the fair values of assets or liabilities that reflect an entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the assets or liabilities.

The application of ASC 820 in situations where the market for a financial asset is not active was clarified in October 2008 by the issuance of ASC 820-10-35 (formerly FSP FAS 157-3, Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset When the Market for That Asset Is Not Active).  This clarification was effective for financial statements issued as of September 30, 2008 and thereafter and did not have a material impact on the methods by which CTBI determines the fair values of its financial assets.  ASC 820 was also clarified in April 2009 effective for the second quarter 2009 by ASC-10-65 (formerly FSP No. FAS 157-4, Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly).  This section clarifies factors that determine whether transactions are orderly or not in evaluating the reliability of market transactions for fair value estimates.  ASC 820-10-15 (formerly FSP FAS 157-2) deferred the application of ASC 820 for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities that are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008.  CTBI adopted the provisions of this standard with respect to nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities beginning on January 1, 2009.

U.S. Treasury and government agencies, State and political subdivision, U.S. government sponsored agencies and mortgage-backed pass through certificates, Collateralized mortgage obligations, Marketable equity securities – Level 2 Inputs.  For these securities, CTBI obtains fair value measurements from an independent pricing service. The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, the U.S. Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information and the bond’s terms and conditions, among other things.

Marketable equity securities – Level 3 Inputs.  The securities owned by CTBI that were measured using Level 3 criteria are auction rate securities issued by FNMA.  These securities were valued using an independent third party.  For these securities, the valuation methods used were (1) a discounted cash flow model valuation, where the expected cash flows of the securities are discounted to the present using a yield that incorporates compensation for illiquidity and (2) a market comparables method, where the securities are valued based on indications, from the secondary market, of what discounts buyers demand when purchasing similar securities.  Using these methods, the auction rate securities are classified as Level 3.

Mortgage Servicing Rights – Level 3 Inputs.  CTBI records MSRs at fair value on a recurring basis with subsequent remeasurement of MSRs based on change in fair value.  In determining fair value, CTBI utilizes the expertise of an independent third party.  An estimate of the fair value of CTBI’s MSRs is determined by the independent third party utilizing assumptions about factors such as mortgage interest rates, discount rates, mortgage loan prepayment speeds, market trends and industry demand.  All of CTBI’s MSRs are classified as Level 3.

Impaired Loans – Level 3 Inputs.  Loans considered impaired under ASC 310 (formerly FAS 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan, as amended by FAS 118, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan — Income Recognition and Disclosure), are loans for which, based on current information and events, it is probable that the creditor will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement.  Impaired loans are subject to nonrecurring fair value adjustments to reflect (1) partial write-downs that are based on the observable market price or current appraised value of the collateral or (2) the full charge-off of the loan carrying value. Quarter-to-date losses on impaired loans were $1.5 million and year-to-date losses on impaired loans totaled $4.5 million at September 30, 2009.

Other real estate/assets owned – Level 3 Inputs.  In accordance with the provisions of ASC 360 (formerly FAS 144), long-lived assets held for sale with a carrying amount of $31.3 million were written down to their fair value less costs to sale during the quarter.  Long-lived assets are nonfinancial assets subject to nonrecurring fair value adjustments to reflect partial write-downs that are based on the observable market price or current appraised value of the collateral.  Losses on other real estate/assets owned were $0.1 million and $0.7 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009.

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.

Other Short-term Investments – Fair values are based on quoted market prices or dealer quotes.

Held-to-Maturity Securities – Fair values are based on quoted market prices or dealer quotes.
 
Loans (net of the allowance for loan and lease losses and including impaired loans) – 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.

Loans Held for Sale – The fair value is predetermined based on sale price.

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

Accrued Interest Receivable – The carrying amount approximates fair value.

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 fair value is estimated by discounting future cash flows using current rates.
 
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.

Accrued Interest Payable – The carrying amount approximates fair value.
 
Other Financial Instruments – The estimated fair value for other financial instruments and off-balance sheet loan commitments approximates cost at September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008.  Off-balance sheet loan commitments at September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008 were $456.4 million and $481.8 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 we are 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.


 

 
Item 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations

Overview
 
Community Trust Bancorp, Inc. (“CTBI”) is a bank holding company headquartered in Pikeville, Kentucky.  At September 30, 2009, CTBI owned one commercial bank and one trust company.  Through its subsidiaries, CTBI has seventy-six banking locations in eastern, northeastern, central, and south central Kentucky and southern West Virginia, and five trust offices across Kentucky.  At September 30, 2009, CTBI had total consolidated assets of $3.0 billion and total consolidated deposits, including repurchase agreements, of $2.6 billion, making it the largest depository of Kentucky based deposits of any bank holding company headquartered in the Commonwealth of Kentucky.  Total shareholders’ equity at September 30, 2009 was $318.6 million.

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 our 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.
 
See note 1 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for further information regarding our accounting policies.  We have identified the following critical accounting policies:
 
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.  We classify securities into held-to-maturity, trading, or available-for-sale categories.  Held-to-maturity securities are those which we have the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity and are reported at amortized cost.  In accordance with ASC 320 (formerly FAS 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities), investments in debt securities that are not classified as held-to-maturity and equity securities that have readily determinable fair values shall be classified in one of the following categories and measured at fair value in the statement of financial position:
 
a. Trading securities. Securities that are bought and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term (thus held for only a short period of time) shall be classified as trading securities. Trading generally reflects active and frequent buying and selling, and trading securities are generally used with the objective of generating profits on short-term differences in price.
 
b. Available-for-sale securities. Investments not classified as trading securities (nor as held-to-maturity securities) shall be classified as available-for-sale securities.
 
We do not have any securities that are classified as trading securities.  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.

Available-for-Sale Securities – Available-for-sale securities are valued using the following valuation techniques:
 
Securities Available-for-Sale – Level 2 Inputs.  For these securities, CTBI obtains fair value measurements from an independent pricing service. The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, the U.S. Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information and the bond’s terms and conditions, among other things.
 
Securities Available-for-Sale – Level 3 Inputs.  The securities owned by CTBI that were measured using Level 3 criteria are auction rate securities issued by FNMA.  These securities were valued using an independent third party.  For these securities, the valuation methods used were (1) a discounted cash flow model valuation, where the expected cash flows of the securities are discounted to the present using a yield that incorporates compensation for illiquidity and (2) a market comparables method, where the securities are valued based on indications, from the secondary market, of what discounts buyers demand when purchasing similar securities.  Using these methods, the auction rate securities are classified as Level 3.
 
Loans  Loans with the ability and the intent to be held until maturity and/or payoff are reported at the carrying value of unpaid principal reduced by unearned interest and an allowance for loan and lease 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.
 
Loan origination and commitment fees and certain direct loan origination costs are deferred and the net amount amortized over the estimated life of the related loans, leases, or commitments as a yield adjustment.
 
Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses  We maintain an allowance for loan and lease losses (“ALLL”) at a level that is appropriate to cover estimated credit losses on individually evaluated loans determined to be impaired, as well as estimated credit losses inherent in the remainder of the loan and lease portfolio.  Since arriving at an appropriate ALLL involves a high degree of management judgment, we use an ongoing quarterly analysis to develop a range of estimated losses.  In accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, we use our best estimate within the range of potential credit loss to determine the appropriate ALLL.  Credit losses are charged and recoveries are credited to the ALLL.
 
We utilize an internal risk grading system for commercial credits.  Those larger commercial credits that exhibit probable or observed credit weaknesses are subject to individual review.  The borrower’s cash flow, adequacy of collateral coverage, and other options available to CTBI, including legal remedies, are evaluated.  The review of individual loans includes those loans that are impaired as ASC 310 (formerly FAS 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan).  We evaluate the collectibility of both principal and interest when assessing the need for loss provision.  Historical loss rates are applied to other commercial loans not subject to specific allocations.  The ALLL allocation for this pool of commercial loans is established based on the historical average, maximum, minimum, and median loss ratios.
 
Homogenous loans, such as consumer installment, residential mortgages, and home equity lines are not individually risk graded.  The associated ALLL for these loans is measured under ASC 450 (formerly FAS 5, Accounting for Contingencies).  The ALLL allocation for these pools of loans is established based on the average, maximum, minimum, and median loss ratios over the previous eight quarters.
 
Historical loss rates for commercial and retail loans are adjusted for significant factors that, in management’s judgment, reflect the impact of any current conditions on loss recognition.  Factors that we consider include delinquency trends, current economic conditions and trends, strength of supervision and administration of the loan portfolio, levels of underperforming loans, level of recoveries to prior year’s charge offs, trend in loan losses, industry concentrations and their relative strengths, amount of unsecured loans and underwriting exceptions.  These factors are reviewed quarterly and a weighted range developed with a “most likely” scenario determined.  The total of each of these weighted factors is then applied against the applicable portion of the portfolio and the ALLL 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.
 
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.  Premises and equipment are evaluated for impairment on a quarterly basis.
 
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 CTBI included in other assets at September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008 was $36.6 million and $10.4 million, respectively.
 
Goodwill and Core Deposit Intangible  We evaluate total goodwill and core deposit intangible for impairment, based upon ASC 350 (formerly FAS 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets and FAS 147, Acquisitions of Certain Financial Institutions), using fair value techniques including multiples of price/equity.  Goodwill and core deposit intangible are evaluated for impairment on an annual basis or as other events may warrant.
 
Amortization of core deposit intangible is estimated at approximately $0.6 million annually for year one, approximately $0.4 million in year two, and approximately $0.1 million in years three and four.
 
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, excluding restricted shares.
 
Diluted EPS adjusts the number of weighted average shares of common stock outstanding by the dilutive effect of stock options, including restricted shares, as prescribed in ASC 718 (formerly FAS 123R).
 
Segments – Management analyzes the operation of CTBI assuming one operating segment, community banking services.  CTBI, 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 – CTBI’s bank owned life insurance policies are carried at their cash surrender value.  We recognize tax-free income from the periodic increases in cash surrender value of these policies and from death benefits.
 
Mortgage Servicing Rights – Mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”) are carried at fair market value with the implementation of ASC 860 (formerly FAS 156) in January 2007.  MSRs are valued using Level 3 inputs as defined in ASC 820 (formerly FAS 157).  The fair value is determined quarterly based on an independent third-party valuation using a discounted cash flow analysis and calculated using a computer pricing model.  The computer valuation is based on key economic assumptions including 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.  Along with the gains received from the sale of loans, fees are received for servicing loans.  These fees include late fees, which are recorded in interest income, and ancillary fees and monthly servicing fees, which are recorded in noninterest income.  Costs of servicing loans are charged to expense as incurred.  Changes in fair market value of the MSRs are reported in mortgage banking income.
 
Stock Options – At September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, CTBI had a share-based employee compensation plan, which is described more fully in note 13 to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2008, included in CTBI’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.  CTBI accounts for this plan under the recognition and measurement principles of ASC 718 (formerly FAS 123R, Share-Based Payment).
 
Reclassifications – Certain reclassifications considered to be immaterial have been made in the prior year condensed consolidated financial statements to conform to current year classifications.  These reclassifications had no effect on net income.

Statement of Income Review
 
CTBI reported earnings for the quarter ended September 30, 2009 of $5.6 million or $0.37 per basic share compared to $5.9 million or $0.39 per basic share earned during the quarter ended June 30, 2009 and a loss of ($0.6 million) or ($0.04) per basic share incurred during the third quarter of 2008.  The loss recorded in the third quarter 2008 was a result of the $13.5 million other than temporary impairment (OTTI) charge to earnings incurred due to the U.S. Treasury placing Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae into conservatorship.  Year-to-date September 30, 2009 earnings per basic share were $1.20 compared to $1.11 for the same period in 2008.

Third Quarter 2009 Highlights

v  
CTBI's basic earnings per share decreased $0.02 per share from prior quarter and increased $0.41 per share from prior year third quarter.  Year over year basic earnings per share increased $0.09 per share.  2009 YTD earnings were impacted by increased provision for loan losses, increased FDIC insurance premiums and special FDIC assessment, and increased noninterest income compared to 2008 YTD which was impacted by the $13.5 million impairment charge referenced above.

v  
CTBI recorded an increase in loan loss provision for the quarter and year-to-date, primarily due to increases in the loan portfolio of $22.4 million and $86.7 million, respectively, as well as negative trends experienced recently in its net charge-offs and classified loan portfolios resulting from current economic conditions.

v  
Net loan charge-offs for the quarter ended September 30, 2009 were 0.87% of average loans compared to 0.63% for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 and 0.36% for the third quarter 2008.  Year-to-date net charge-offs increased $5.1 million from prior year.

v  
Noninterest income was impacted by increased gains on sales of loans and loan related fees year over year; however, both declined in the third quarter 2009 as refinancing of mortgage loans has slowed and the fair value of mortgage servicing rights decreased.

v  
Noninterest expense increased year over year as a result of increases in legal fees, net OREO expense, and repossession expense as CTBI works through its problem real estate loans resulting from the decline in the housing market.  CTBI also experienced increased personnel expense and increased FDIC insurance premiums including the special FDIC assessment.  The decline in FDIC premiums quarter over quarter was due to the special FDIC assessment booked in the second quarter 2009.

v  
Expenses associated with group medical and life insurance increased $0.7 million during the third quarter 2009, but were offset by a $0.6 million reversal of a performance-based employee incentive accrual.

v  
Our net interest margin increased 18 basis points during the third quarter 2009, although it remains below prior year as pressure continues due to the current interest rate environment and economic conditions.  Our net interest margin compared to prior year-to-date and same quarter ended September 2008 decreased 27 basis points and 16 basis points, respectively.

v  
Our loan portfolio grew $22.4 million, an annualized rate of 3.7%, during the quarter with growth in the residential and consumer loan categories offset by declines in commercial loan categories.  Year over year loan growth was $86.7 million or 3.7%.

v  
Nonperforming loans decreased $14.4 million during the third quarter 2009 to $45.2 million compared to $59.6 million at prior quarter end and $49.3 million at September 30, 2008.  The decrease in nonperforming loans was in both the 90 day and accruing and the nonaccrual classifications.  Nonperforming assets, however, increased $1.8 million from prior quarter-end, June 30, 2009, and $23.0 million from prior year quarter-end, September 30, 2008, as a result of increased other real estate owned.

v  
Our investment portfolio declined $22.2 million for the quarter and $16.5 million year over year.

v  
Our tangible common equity/tangible assets ratio remains strong at 8.51%.
 
CTBI had basic weighted average shares outstanding of 15.1 million for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 compared to 15.0 million for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008.  The following table sets forth on an annualized basis the return on average assets and return on average shareholders’ equity for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008:

Net Interest Income
 
CTBI saw improvement in its net interest margin of 18 basis points from prior quarter, although it remains below prior year with a decrease of 16 basis points compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2008.  Net interest income for the quarter increased 6.4% from prior quarter and 2.1% from prior year third quarter with average earning assets increasing 0.2% and 6.1%, respectively, for the same periods.  CTBI’s balance sheet is asset sensitive in the short time period but liability sensitive at the one year time period.  Deposit repricing is occurring more slowly than loan repricing placing pressure on the margin; however, current margin improvement from repricing is evidenced as the yield on average earnings assets increased 5 basis points from prior quarter in comparison to the 18 basis point decrease in the cost of interest bearing funds during the same period.  Net interest income increased $1.6 million from prior quarter.  YTD 2009 net interest income was $76.9 million compared to $78.5 million for the same period in 2008.  Average earnings assets for the quarter ending September 30, 2009 increased $6.0 million from prior quarter and 2009 YTD average earning assets increased $140.0 million from the nine months ended September 30, 2008.

    0.69 %     0.47 %
Loan charge-offs net of recoveries, to average loans, annualized
    0.63 %     0.36 %
 
Net loan charge-offs for the quarter of $5.2 million, or 0.87% of average loans annualized, was an increase from prior quarter's 0.63% and prior year third quarter’s 0.36%.  Of the total net charge offs of $5.2 million, $3.5 million was charged off in commercial loans with specific reserve allocations for these loans of $3.0 million or 81% of total commercial loan charge offs.  Residential real estate and other consumer loans are not generally provided a specific allocation during the credit review process.   Allocations to loan loss reserves were $5.8 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2009 compared to $4.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 and $2.9 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2008.  Our loan loss reserves as a percentage of total loans outstanding at September 30, 2009 increased to 1.33% from the 1.32% at June 30, 2009 and the 1.29% at September 30, 2008.  The adequacy of our loan loss reserves is analyzed quarterly and adjusted as necessary with a focus on maintaining appropriate reserves for potential losses.

Noninterest Income
 
Noninterest income for the third quarter 2009 decreased 15.8% over prior quarter and 2.8% over prior year third quarter after normalizing for the $13.5 million temporary impairment charge in the third quarter 2008.  The decrease from prior quarter included a $1.0 million decrease in gains on sales of mortgage loans and a $1.0 million decrease in loan related fees driven primarily by a $0.9 million change in the fair value of our mortgage servicing rights.  Year over year noninterest income increased 10.8% from the nine months ended September 30, 2008 after normalizing for the OTTI charge with a $2.2 million increase in gains on sales of loans and a $0.7 million increase in loan related fees related to the fair value adjustment of mortgage servicing rights.

Noninterest Expense
 
  Noninterest expense for the quarter decreased 4.2% from prior quarter and increased 6.0% from prior year third quarter.  FDIC premium costs of $1.1 million during the third quarter were a $1.2 million decrease quarter over quarter and a $1.0 million increase from the same quarter last year.  The decrease quarter over quarter was driven by a one time assessment imposed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation which was paid during September 2009 but assessed and booked as of June 30, 2009.  CTBI continues to experience higher legal fees, repossession expenses, and other real estate owned expenses as it continues to work through problem loans associated with the decline in the real estate market primarily in Central Kentucky.  Personnel costs decreased by $0.4 million quarter over quarter as CTBI’s expenses associated with group medical and life insurance were offset by the reversal of a performance-based employee incentive accrual.
 
Balance Sheet Review
 
CTBI’s total assets at $3.0 billion remained stable from prior quarter and increased an annualized 3.7% from prior year.  Loans outstanding at September 30, 2009 were $2.4 billion reflecting an annualized 3.7% growth during the quarter and an annualized 3.1% growth from December 31, 2008.  CTBI's investment portfolio decreased an annualized 27.7% from prior quarter and 1.2% from prior year-end.  Federal funds sold and deposits in other banks decreased $10.3 million quarter over quarter and $9.3 million from year-end..  Deposits, including repurchase agreements, at $2.6 billion increased an annualized 5.9% from prior quarter and 5.1% from prior year-end.  Other interest bearing liabilities declined resulting from the payoff of a $40 million FHLB advance.
 
Shareholders’ equity at September 30, 2009 was $318.6 million compared to $314.8 million at June 30, 2009 and $308.2 million at December 31, 2008.  CTBI's annualized dividend yield to shareholders as of September 30, 2009 was 4.59%.
 
Loans
 
Loan growth occurred during the quarter in the residential and consumer loan portfolios with residential loans increasing by $23.4 million and consumer loans increasing by $18.5 million.  The commercial loan portfolio declined by $19.4 million during the quarter.  Year-to-date loan growth of $54.0 million consisted of growth in the commercial loan portfolio of $12.8 million, growth in the consumer loan portfolio of $45.1 million, and a decline in the residential portfolio of $3.9 million.

Nonperforming loans decreased $14.4 million during the third quarter 2009 to $45.2 million compared to $59.6 million at prior quarter end and $52.2 million at December 31, 2008.  The decrease in nonperforming loans was in both the 90 day and accruing and the nonaccrual classifications.  Our loan portfolio management processes focus on the immediate identification, management, and resolution of problem loans to maximize recovery and minimize loss.
 
Nonperforming assets increased $1.8 million from prior quarter-end, June 30, 2009, and $19.1 million from prior year-end, December 31, 2008, as a result of increased other real estate owned.  Foreclosed properties increased during the third quarter 2009 to $36.6 million from the $20.4 million at June 30, 2009 and the $10.4 million at December 31, 2008, as problem real estate loans are slowly moving through the legal system, which remains strained due to current economic conditions, and CTBI continues working through a prolonged foreclosure process.  Sales of foreclosed properties for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 totaled $3.9 million while new foreclosed properties totaled $29.1 million.  Our nonperforming loans and foreclosed properties remain primarily concentrated in our Central Kentucky Region where the indicated months of inventory of homes for sale has increased to eleven.  Approximately $5 million of the foreclosed properties consists of higher-end residences where the expected turn could be between 36 to 40 months.  The majority of the remaining properties should sell between the average market turn time of 11 months and 20 months.  While the holding period for CTBI’s current inventory of foreclosed properties may be extended; the change in average sales price for homes in this area has decreased only 3% when comparing the average home sale price in 2008 to the year-to-date figure through September 30, 2009.

Allowance for Loan Losses
 
The allowance for loan and lease 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.  For further discussion of the allowance for loan losses, see the Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates section presented earlier in Item 2.

Securities
 
CTBI uses its securities held-to-maturity for production of income and to manage cash flow needs through expected maturities.  CTBI uses its securities available-for-sale for income and balance sheet liquidity management.  Securities available-for-sale reported at fair value increased from $267.4 million as of December 31, 2008 to $279.0 million at September 30, 2009.  The excess of market over cost increased from $1.4 million at December 31, 2008 to $7.1 million at September 30, 2009.  Securities held-to-maturity decreased from $25.6 million to $16.7 million during the same period.  Total securities as a percentage of total assets were 9.9% as of December 31, 2008 and 9.7% as of September 30, 2009.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
CTBI’s liquidity objectives are to ensure that funds are available for the subsidiary bank to meet deposit withdrawals and credit demands without unduly penalizing profitability.  Additionally, CTBI’s objectives ensure that funding is available for CTBI to meet ongoing cash needs while maximizing profitability.  CTBI continues to identify ways to provide for liquidity on both a current and long-term basis.  The subsidiary bank relies mainly on core deposits, certificates of deposits of $100,000 or more, repayment of principal and interest on loans and securities and federal funds sold and purchased to create long-term liquidity.  The subsidiary bank also has available the sale of securities under repurchase agreements, securities available-for-sale, and Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) borrowings as secondary sources of liquidity.
 
Due to the nature of the markets served by the subsidiary bank, management believes that the majority of its certificates of deposit of $100,000 or more and its repurchase agreements are no more volatile than its core deposits.  During periods of interest rate volatility, these deposit balances have remained stable as a percentage of total deposits.  In addition, arrangements have been made with correspondent banks for the purchase of federal funds on an unsecured basis, up to $20 million, if necessary, to meet CTBI’s liquidity needs.
 
The FDIC recently announced a proposed rule that would require insured depository institutions to prepay their estimated quarterly risk-based assessments for the fourth quarter 2009 and for years 2010, 2011, and 2012.  If the proposed rule is adopted, the prepaid assessments would be collected on December 30, 2009.  We have estimated that the total prepaid assessments for our Bank subsidiary would be approximately $12.5 million, which would be recorded as a prepaid expense (asset) as of December 30, 2009.  As of December 31, 2009, and each quarter thereafter, our Bank subsidiary would record an expense for its regular quarterly assessment and an offsetting credit to the prepaid assessment until the asset is exhausted.  Management believes that the present funding sources provide adequate liquidity to meet our cash flow needs.
 
CTBI owns securities with an estimated fair value of $279.0 million that are designated as available-for-sale and available to meet liquidity needs on a continuing basis.  In addition, CTBI has $18.7 million in short term investments consisting of certificates of deposits in other banks that will mature prior to December 31, 2009.  All investments in other banks are made at or below the FDIC insured maximum of $250 thousand.  CTBI also has available Federal Home Loan Bank advances for both liquidity and management of its asset/liability position.  FHLB advances decreased from $60.7 million at December 31, 2008 to $20.7 million at September 30, 2009.  FHLB borrowing capacity at September 30, 2009 was $301.4 million.  Long-term debt remained at $61.3 million from December 31, 2008 to September 30, 2009.  The parent company has a $12 million line of credit, all of which is currently available for general corporate purposes.  At September 30, 2009, federal funds sold were $34.0 million compared to $45.9 million at December 31, 2008.  Additionally, management projects cash flows from CTBI’s investment portfolio to generate additional liquidity over the next 90 days.
 
CTBI 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 federal funds purchased and securities sold under repurchase agreements, and issuance of long-term debt.  CTBI’s primary investing activities include purchases of securities and loan originations.
 
The investment portfolio consists of investment grade short-term issues suitable for bank investments.  The majority of the investment portfolio is in U.S. government and government sponsored agency issuances.  The average life of the portfolio is 3.4 years. At the end of the third quarter 2009, available-for-sale (“AFS”) securities comprised approximately 94.4% of the total investment portfolio.  The AFS portfolio was approximately 87.5% of equity capital, and 85% of the pledge eligible portfolio was pledged.
 
CTBI’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 and in May 2005.  CTBI did not repurchase any shares of its common stock during the first nine months of 2009.  There are currently 288,519 shares remaining under CTBI’s current repurchase authorization.  As of September 30, 2009, a total of 2,211,481 shares have been repurchased through this program.
 
In conjunction with maintaining a satisfactory level of liquidity, management monitors the degree of interest rate risk assumed on the consolidated balance sheet.  CTBI monitors its interest rate risk by use of the static gap model and dynamic gap model at the one-year interval.  CTBI uses the Sendero system to monitor its interest rate risk.  The static gap model monitors the difference in interest rate sensitive assets and interest rate sensitive liabilities as a percentage of total assets that mature within the specified time frame.  The dynamic gap model goes further in that it assumes that interest rate sensitive assets and liabilities will be reinvested.  CTBI desires an interest sensitivity gap of not more than fifteen percent of total assets at the one-year interval.
 
CTBI’s principal source of funds used to pay dividends to shareholders and service long-term debt is the dividends it receives from the subsidiary bank.  Various federal statutory provisions, in addition to regulatory policies and directives, limit the amount of dividends that subsidiary banks can pay without prior regulatory approval.  These restrictions have had no major impact on CTBI’s dividend policy or its ability to service long-term debt, nor is it anticipated that they would have any major impact in the foreseeable future.  During the remainder of 2009, approximately $25.4 million plus any remaining 2009 net profits can be paid by CTBI’s banking subsidiary without prior regulatory approval.
 
The primary source of capital for CTBI is the retention of earnings.  CTBI paid cash dividends of $0.90 per share during the first nine months of 2009.  Basic earnings per share for the same period were $1.20.  CTBI retained 25% of earnings for the first nine months of 2009.
 
Under guidelines issued by banking regulators, CTBI and its subsidiary bank are required to maintain a minimum Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 4% and a minimum total risk-based ratio of 8%.  In order to be considered “well-capitalized” CTBI must maintain ratios of 6% and 10%, respectively.  Risk-based capital ratios weight the relative risk factors of all assets and consider the risk associated with off-balance sheet items.  CTBI must also maintain a minimum Tier 1 leverage ratio of 4%.  The well-capitalized ratio for Tier 1 leverage is 5%.  CTBI’s Tier 1 leverage, Tier 1 risk-based, and total risk-based ratios were 10.25%, 12.92%, and 14.17%, respectively, as of September 30, 2009, all exceeding the threshold for meeting the definition of well-capitalized.
 
As of September 30, 2009, management is not aware of any conditions or current recommendations by banking regulatory authorities which, if they were to be implemented, would have, or would be reasonably likely to have, a material adverse impact on CTBI’s liquidity, capital resources, or operations.

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices
 
The majority of CTBI’s assets and liabilities are monetary in nature. Therefore, CTBI differs greatly from most commercial and industrial companies that have significant investment in nonmonetary 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 one of the most significant impacts on financial and operating results is CTBI’s ability to react to changes in interest rates.  Management seeks to maintain an essentially balanced position between interest rate sensitive assets and liabilities in order to protect against the effects of wide interest rate fluctuations.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
 
Certain of the statements contained herein that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act.  CTBI’s actual results may differ materially from those included in the forward-looking statements.  Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words or phrases such as “believe, ” “expect, ” “anticipate, ” “intend, ” “estimate, ” “may increase, ” “may fluctuate, ” and similar expressions or future or conditional verbs such as “will, ” “should, ” “would, ” and “could. ”  These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties including, but not limited to, economic conditions, portfolio growth, the credit performance of the portfolios, including bankruptcies, and seasonal factors; changes in general economic conditions including the performance of financial markets, prevailing inflation and interest rates, realized gains from sales of investments, gains from asset sales, and losses on commercial lending activities; results of various investment activities; the effects of competitors’ pricing policies, changes in laws and regulations, competition, and demographic changes on target market populations’ savings and financial planning needs; industry changes in information technology systems on which we are highly dependent; failure of acquisitions to produce revenue enhancements or cost savings at levels or within the time frames originally anticipated or unforeseen integration difficulties; the adoption by CTBI of a Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC) policy that provides guidance on the reporting of delinquent consumer loans and the timing of associated credit charge-offs for financial institution subsidiaries; and the resolution of legal  proceedings and related matters.  In addition, the banking industry in general is subject to various monetary and fiscal policies and regulations, which include those determined by the Federal Reserve Board, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, and state regulators, whose policies and regulations could affect CTBI’s results.  These statements are representative only on the date hereof, and CTBI undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements made.


Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
 
Interest rate risk management focuses on maintaining consistent growth in net interest income within Board-approved policy limits.  CTBI uses an earnings simulation model to analyze net interest income sensitivity to movements in interest rates.  Given a 200 basis point increase to the yield curve used in the simulation model, it is estimated net interest income for CTBI would increase by 1.88 percent over one year and by 1.24 percent over two years.  A 25 basis point decrease in the yield curve would decrease net interest income by an estimated 0.29 percent over one year and by 0.11 percent over two years.  For further discussion of CTBI’s market risk, see the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations--Liquidity and Market Risk included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.


Item  4.  Controls and Procedures

EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
CTBI’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective disclosure controls and procedures, as defined under Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.  As of the end of the period covered by this report, an evaluation was carried out by CTBI’s management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and the Executive Vice President/Treasurer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures.  Based on this evaluation, including the remedial actions described below, management concluded that disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2009 were effective in ensuring material information required to be disclosed in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q was recorded, processed, summarized, and reported on a timely basis.

PREVIOUSLY IDENTIFIED MATERIAL WEAKNESS
 
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and completely and accurately reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms.  CTBI previously identified a material weakness in controls related to the review and approval of accounting conclusions and calculations relating to new and recurring accounting and reporting issues resulting in an error in the recognition of assessable FDIC premiums in the proper periods.  On August 10, 2009, CTBI filed an amended Form 10-Q/A for the first quarter ended March 31, 2009.  Please see the amended Form 10-Q/A for additional information.  As a result, our Chief Executive Officer and Executive Vice President/Treasurer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2009.

ACTIONS TO REMEDIATE THE PREVIOUSLY IDENTIFIED MATERIAL WEAKNESS IN INTERNAL CONTROL
 
As of the date of this filing, we have fully remediated the material weakness in our internal controls related to the review and approval of accounting conclusions and calculations relating to new and recurring accounting and reporting issues that resulted in an error in the recognition of assessable FDIC premiums in the proper periods.   Management made modifications to the internal control procedures for identifying, calculating and recording transactions to remediate this material weakness.  CTBI’s remedial actions included:
 
1)  
Expansion of the review process to include the Executive Vice President/Treasurer’s review of all significant transactions including any balance sheet entries associated with these transactions to ensure that all such transactions are identified and recorded properly.

2)  
Expansion of procedures for analyzing and documenting new and recurring accounting and reporting issues, to ensure decisions are properly documented, reviewed, and approved.

3)  
Expansion of documentation process when questions arise regarding the proper accounting treatment of particular transactions to include in the documentation the nature of the issue, the resolution of the issue and the supporting documentation to support the position taken.

4)  
Development of an emerging issues committee within the Finance Department, consisting of all senior level accounting managers, which is charged with meeting monthly to identify new accounting pronouncements and developments and determining the appropriate application to CTBI’s financial reporting.  This committee communicates monthly to executive management and to the accounting staff the results of these meetings and any required changes in accounting policy or procedure.

CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
 
Except as described above, there were no changes in CTBI’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2009 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, CTBI’s internal control over financial reporting.
