First Capital Bancorp, Inc.
Reports Earnings for the First Quarter of 2007
May 11, 2007, Glen Allen, Virginia. First Capital Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company")(OTC Bulletin Board symbol: FPBX) announced today earnings for the three months ended March 31, 2007 of $350,006 or $0.19 per share, compared to $375,593 or $0.21 per share for the same period in 2006. The decrease in net income was due to the additional cost associated with the growth of the Bank which includes the opening and staffing of two new branches, one in the third quarter of 2006, and one in the first quarter of 2007, coupled with the hiring in the first quarter of 2007 of a Private Client Group Leader and a Business Banking Group Leader, both of whom have established relationships in the Richmond market.
The Company's net interest income increased $291,951 or 16.5% to $2,064,238 for the three months ended March 31, 2007 over the three months ended March 31, 2006 net interest income of $1,772,287. This increase in net interest income is attributable to the growth of the loan portfolio from $165,817,459 at March 31, 2006 to $211,208,376 at March 31, 2007. Noninterest income increased $71,425, or 74.8% compared to the comparable period in 2006. This increase was due to growth in fees on deposits and fees on mortgage loans.
Noninterest expense increased $375,363 or 31.4% as compared to the same period in 2006. The majority of the increase is attributable to the expanded branch franchise and the key additions to the lending team. Consequently, the largest increases in noninterest expense occurred in salaries and employee benefits of $250,546 and occupancy costs of $32,722.
The Company's asset quality remained strong with no loans delinquent 30 days or more and one real estate secured nonaccrual loan of $120,000 at March 31, 2007. The ratio of loan loss reserve to net loans outstanding at March 31, 2007 remained unchanged from December 31, 2006 at 0.92%, down from 0.93% at March 31, 2006.
Stockholders' equity totaled $16,081,571 at March 31, 2007, which represented a book value of $8.95 per share. At March 31, 2007, the Company exceeded all regulatory capital requirements.
First Capital Bancorp, Inc. President and CEO, Bob Watts, noted "the past six months have represented the greatest investment in the future of this franchise, to date. The recent additions of the James Center Office, an experienced Private Client Group Leader, a well known in-market Business Banking Leader and an expanded mortgage operation will all serve to springboard our company to the next level of performance. As a team, we could not be more excited about the year ahead and attacking the industry challenges of compressed net interest margins and changing markets. We're well positioned to do both."
The Company currently operates branches in Innsbrook, Chesterfield Towne Center, near Willow Lawn on Staples Mill Road, in Ashland, in the Forest Office Park in Henrico County and at the James Center in downtown, Richmond, Virginia.

First Capital Bancorp, Inc. Reports 20% Increase in 2006 Earnings
First Capital Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company")(OTC Bulletin Board symbol: FPBX) announced today a 20% increase in the Company's earnings for the twelve months ended December 31, 2006, to $1,571,219 or $0.87 per share, compared to $1,306,327 or $0.73 per share for the same period in 2005. Earnings for the fourth quarter of 2006 increased 2% to $388,943 or $0.22 per share, compared to earnings of $381,583 or $0.21 per share for the same period in 2005. The addition of a new lending division and the expansion of existing lending divisions, coupled with a flat yield curve, a reliance on interest-sensitive funding sources, and competitive pricing pressures all contributed to the downward pressure on earnings and net interest margins during the fourth quarter.
First Capital Bancorp, Inc. is the holding company of and successor to First Capital Bank (the "Bank"). Effective September 8, 2006, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of the Bank in a statutory share exchange transaction, approved by the shareholders at the annual meeting in May 2006, whereby shares of the Company's common stock, par value $4.00 per share, were exchanged on a one-for-one basis.
The improvement in earnings is primarily attributable to the continued growth of the Company. Net loans increased $45.2 million, or 29.2%, from $154.6 million at December 31, 2005, to $199.8 million at December 31, 2006. Deposits increased $31.9 million, or 19.7%, from $162.4 million at December 31, 2005, to $194.3 million at December 31, 2006. Other borrowings increased by $13.9 million as the Company issued Trust Preferred Capital Notes totaling $5.2 million during the third quarter of 2006 and availed itself of less expensive borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta during the year.
Total assets increased 22.8% or $47.7 million from $209.5 million at December 31, 2005 to $257.2 million at December 31, 2006. Stockholders' equity totaled $15.7 million at December 31, 2006, which represents a book value of $8.72 per share.
The Company's net interest income increased $1,172,959 or 18.3% to $7,572,211 for the year ended December 31, 2006 over the year ended December 31, 2005 net interest income of $6,399,252. Noninterest income increased $192,678, or 70.8% compared to the comparable period in 2005. This increase was due to growth in fees on deposits and gain on sale of loans. Noninterest expense increased $967,119 or 22.5% as compared to 2005 as additional lending personnel and support personnel were added in the construction division, the mortgage origination division and the opening of the Forest Office Park branch in September 2006.
The Company's asset quality remained strong with only two loans delinquent 30 days or more at December 31, 2006 totaling $146,000.
First Capital Bancorp, Inc. President and CEO, Bob Watts, noted that the Bank is experiencing a period of "investment in the future" unlike any ever before. Over the past six months, First Capital Bank has opened our Forest Office Park Office (and will next month open our James Center Office in downtown Richmond), expanded the Bank's free courier service for our business customers, hired one of the market's premier construction lenders, Ms. Ann Hillsman, invested in bringing a significant portion of our mortgage process in-house, hired Mr. Richard McNeil to lead and expand the Bank's Private Client Group and hired Mr. Del Ward to lead the Bank's Business Banking Group efforts. Throughout this process, the core earnings of the Bank's growing operations have supported this investment while sustaining double-digit percentage growth in net income for 2006.
The Company currently operates branches in Innsbrook, Chesterfield Towne Center, near Willow Lawn on Staples Mill Road, in Ashland, Southside Regional Medical Center in Petersburg and in the Forest Office Park in Henrico County.

First Capital Bank Reports Record Profits and Strong Loan Growth
First Capital Bank reported a significant increase in net income for the third quarter of 2005 as compared to the third quarter of 2004. Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2005 was $348,388 or $0.29 per share. Net income for the comparable period of 2004 was $167,949, or $0.17 per share.

Net income earned in the third quarter of 2005 of $348,388 is a significant improvement over the $167,949 earned in the third quarter of 2004. The improvement in earnings for the third quarter of 2005 is primarily attributable to the continued profitable growth of First Capital Bank. The Bank enjoyed a substantial increase in net interest income, from $1,136,931 for the third quarter of 2004 to $1,669,726 for the third quarter of 2005. This increase of $532,795 was primarily a result of additional interest income arising from an increase in loans, from $99.1 million at September 30, 2004 to $144.7 million at September 30, 2005, as well as rising short-term interest rates precipitated by increases in interest rates by the Federal Reserve Bank during 2005.
For the first nine months of 2005, net loans increased by $37.1 million, or 34.4%.

First Capital Bank Expects to become profitable in the third quarter, Esther Hay Smith, president and chief executive officer, told shareholders yesterday at the annual meeting.
"For us to do this in this period of time is an accomplishment," Smith said after the meeting. New banks often don't show a profit for three years, she said.
First Capital opened in December 1998. The bank hopes to open a second branch in Hanover County by year's end, Smith said.
The Glen Allen-based bank reported an operating loss of $693,448, which was in line with expectations. Deposit and asset growth is ahead of projections, Smith said.
Deposits increased to $20.02 million during the first year of operations.
Shareholders approved a stock option plan. The plan would give options at a yet undetermined date to directors, advisers, original organizers and others who helped get the bank started, Smith said.
