Shareholders of Millennium Bankshares Corporation (OTCBB:MBVA) met on May 6, 2010 at the annual shareholders meeting to vote upon several important matters that affect the holding company (the “Company”) and its wholly owned subsidiary, Millennium Bank, N.A. Three proposals were approved by the shareholders and are as follows: One Class B director to serve a term ending in 2013, one Class C director to serve a term ending in 2011, and the ratification of Elliott Davis, LLC as the Company’s independent accounting firm for 2009.

At the meeting, management discussed the financial results of operations for the calendar year 2009 and the first quarter of 2010. Jack Novak, President and CEO of Millennium Bankshares, said, “The results of the directors’ and the new management team’s efforts to address and resolve problem loans are clearly evident as you review the numbers. Since September 30, 2009, our nonaccrual loans have increased only $661,000 for the fourth quarter of 2009 and $514,000 for the first quarter of 2010. Nonaccrual loans were $13.0 million at September 30, 2009 and $7.3 million as of March 31, 2010, a reduction of 44%, even with the additions previously mentioned. Loans 30-89 days past due were $335,000 as of March 31, 2010, down from $1.4 million at September 30, 2009, a reduction of over $1 million or 76%. These initiatives are continuing, and as a result, the bank resolved over $1 million in problem assets during the month of April in addition to the nonperforming assets worked out in the last two quarters. Our OREOs have had a small decrease since September of 2009 from $9.5 million to $9.2 million as of April 30, 2010. These numbers unquestionably reflect a significant drop in our problem assets. From an operational perspective, our net interest margin increased 65% from the month of March 2009 to the month of March this year, and we are continuing to reduce our cost of funding and overhead expenses while positioning the bank for the recovering economy. The Company had an operating loss for 2009 of $11.4 million, or an average of $2.8 million per quarter, which, when compared to our operating loss of $1.2 million for the first quarter of 2010, is a reduction of over 57%. Our branches are located in two of the wealthiest counties in the country and are part of the Washington MSA, one of the most stable areas in the nation. Our primary strategy of penetrating the small business market is starting to bear fruit as evidenced by the increasing number of inquiries and referrals to our relationship managers. These efforts and results have positioned us to be better able to achieve our next, and most important strategic initiative, the raising of capital.”
