2– 2005 SUMMARY ANNUAL REPORT

T his new institution would be formed on the premise that all people could participate in

an effort to take care of the financial needs of our community. In keeping with the spirit

of democracy upon which our country was founded, the ownership of our company was

broadly distributed among our shareholders. We therefore consciously limited individual

ownership to 1% of our stock. This would assure that there was a broad base of community

ownership and that our company would be governed by the people. We purposely chose to have

the shares of our stock owned by citizens and people with local ties who were committed to the

success of our community.

While a number of things have changed since the early days in our company's history, those that

matter have remained the same. Our original shareholder group has increased from approximately

1,200 to well over 3,000. This is due, in no small part, to the appeal of our guiding principle to

put the needs of the community and our marketplace first. While demonstrating that this can be

done successfully, we are creating wealth for

shareholders and doing good in the

communities we serve.

Original shareholders who purchased

stock in 1983 have enjoyed a 22-year

compound return of 9.98%. Subsequent

shareholders who purchased during the

1986 offering have experienced an 8.22%

“For the people, by the people, a great nation wasstarted; so would be a great bank,” was the founding creedin the organizational days of our company.

… people with local ties

committed to the success

of our community …

The Uwharrie Lakes Region

return and those who purchased during the 1988 offering have received a return of 4.56%. Our

commitment to serving our customers and our communities has proven to be a winning strategy

that enhances our relationships and provides long-term value to our shareholders. You can be

proud of your investment in Uwharrie Capital Corp, particularly during the last seven years since

our last stock offering when the general market, represented by the S&P Index returned 2.91%.

We continue to promote our stock to people who are motivated and committed to our region and

making this place a better place to live.

Our goal to balance the short-term pursuit of profits with our long-term objective of creating a

quality of life our descendants can be proud of is more challenging than ever. As our economy has been

in a state of transition, we work to promote a new

economy that capitalizes on our community values. We

have made excellent progress toward our goal of long-

term value creation for all of our constituencies.

Uwharrie Capital Corp’s overriding mission

remains to enhance the well-being of the communities

we serve. We accomplish this by providing capital for

the purchase of new homes, loans to growing

businesses, expertise for management of retirement money … all from local dollars deposited with our

company and put to work here at home. These activities create wealth for our shareholders, customers

and the community-at-large … new

wealth in the form of corporate profits,

appreciating assets, new jobs and higher

household incomes. Combine this with

our clean environment and natural

resources and you have a quality of life

second to none and improving as we

fulfill our mission. Such is the founding

philosophy of your company, and you can

be proud to be among those who have

made it possible.

Provide to shareholders a good return on theirinvestment.

Page 25: Empowering People - Uwharrie Bank · EMPOWERING PEOPLE – 7 W e are your community bank and we offer a better blend of finan-cial expertise and hometown experience. We bring this

The Company experienced another year of solid growth as total assets rose from $329.3 million at December 31, 2004 to $350.2 millionat December 31, 2005. This 6.4% level of growth resulted primarily from a $12.5 million increase in loans receivable. Additionally, a $6.5million increase in securities available for sale and a $1.8 million in cash and cash equivalents provided greater liquidity for the Company.

Customer deposits continued to be our principal funding source in 2005, thereby allowing for the growth in assets discussed above as wellas a $6.8 million reduction in borrowings. At December 31, 2005, deposits from our customers totaled $274.0 million, representing an 10.9%increase from $247.0 million at December 31, 2004.

Net income for 2005 amounted to $1.5 million or $0.22 per share, an improvement over 2004 net income of $253,000 or $0.04 per share.As with most financial institutions, the primary component of earnings for our banks is net interest income, which increased by $1.4 million,or 12.2%, to $12.5 million for 2005 from $11.2 million in 2004. The Company benefited from a rising interest rate environment, augmentedby loan and investment growth. The average yield on our interest-earning assets increased 79 basis points to 6.36%, while the average rate wepaid for our interest bearing liabilities increased 68 basis points. These increases resulted in a 11 basis point rise in our interest rate spread, from3.71% in 2004 to 3.82% in 2005. Our net interest margin for 2005 was 4.21%, compared to 3.96% in 2004.

A $1.3 million reduction in the provision for loan losses also contributed to the Company's stronger performance in 2005 as compared to2004. Largely in anticipation of potential losses on five commercial lending relationships, the allowance for loan losses was increased in 2004to $5.0 million, as compared to $3.2 million for the prior year-end. Certain of these losses were realized in 2005 as the ratio of net charge-offsto average loans increased from .13% in 2004 to .47% in 2005.

In response to increasing competition for traditional bank loan and deposit services, the Company gained momentum during 2005 in itsstrategy to increase sources of noninterest income. Other service fees and commissions increased in total by $301,000, or 21.1%, during 2005.In particular, income generated from brokerage commissions and asset management fees amounted to $921,000, or an increase of $121,000.In addition, service charges on deposit accounts grew $271,000 to $1.7 million. Off-setting these increases was a $290,000 decline in incomefrom mortgage loan sales as originations leveled off during 2005 with the rise in mortgage interest rates. Other income also decreased by$183,000.

Noninterest expense increased 5.9%, to $14.1 million in 2005, as compared to $13.3 million in 2004. Personnel costs, the largestcomponent of noninterest expense, increased $847,000, from $7.2 million in 2004 to $8.0 million in 2005. Additions at the executive andbank support staff levels, together with normal annual salary increases, primarily account for this increase.

The Company continues to maintain a strong capital position. At December 31, 2005, total shareholders' equity was $27.5 million, anincrease of $297,000 from $27.2 million at the end of 2004. Capital ratios are above those of a well capitalized bank as defined by our regulators.
