American National Bankshares Inc. Announces Revised Earnings.

American National Bankshares Inc. today announced revised earnings for the fourth quarter of 2004. Earnings were revised to reflect an after-tax impairment charge of $650,000 on $4.5 million of Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation ("FHLMC") and Federal National Mortgage Association ("FNMA") perpetual preferred stock. This write-down had no impact on the Corporation's equity. The reclassification of an unrealized mark-to-market loss on these securities to an other-than-temporary charge was based upon a detailed impairment analysis and does not necessarily reflect the expected long-term value of these government sponsored investment-grade securities.

"The decision to record this non-cash impairment charge was made after a thorough analysis of all factors," stated Charles H. Majors, President and Chief Executive Officer. "Those factors include recent public disclosures about FHLMC and FNMA, the length of time the market value of the securities has been less than our cost, the results of an impairment analysis recently completed by an outside party, and accounting interpretations. Like so many of our industry peers who have recently taken similar action, we have now concluded the securities should be considered impaired as of year-end and we reflected the charge in our income statement." Gains and losses on the securities were previously recognized in the equity section of the balance sheet.

Net income for the fourth quarter of 2004 was revised from $1.43 million to $.78 million and per share earnings were revised from $.26 to $.14 on both a primary and diluted basis. Net income for the full year 2004 was revised from $8.66 million to $8.01 million; basic earnings per share were revised from $1.55 to $1.43, and diluted earnings per share were revised from $1.54 to $1.42.
