The revision also means that First Community's ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets has dropped to 7.53 percent, which puts the bank into the “undercapitalized” category for federal regulatory purposes.

First State (NASDAQ: FSNM) has been under a written regulatory agreement with the Federal Reserve Bank since the summer of 2009.
First State said in April that the erosion of its capital and the deterioration of its loan portfolio made it unlikely that the bank would be able to maintain its “adequately capitalized” status with the FDIC without raising more capital, selling assets, merging with another firm, obtaining government assistance or some combination of those things.
