Net profit after tax totaled $368 thousand, or $0.08 earnings per common share, compared to $340 thousand reported in 2015.

  • Total assets at June 30, 2016 were $259 million, an increase of $5.8 million, or 2.3 percent from $253.2 million at June 30, 2015. Average earning assets for the quarter reached $237.7 million, an increase of $7.8 million, or 3.4 percent, compared with $229.9 million in 2015.

  • Deposits totaled $234.2 million at June 30, 2016 and represented an increase of $11.2 million or 5 percent from the prior quarter, and $7.5 million, or a 3.3 percent increase from the prior year.

  • Loans totaled $198.4 million at June 30, 2016 and represented an increase of $3.2 million or 1.6 percent from the prior quarter, and an increase of $18.9 million, or 10.6 percent from the prior year.

  • Non-performing assets increased $215 thousand to $3.0 million compared to the prior quarter and now represent 1.5 percent of total loans. Allowance for loan losses represents 1.63 percent of Total Loans.

  • Net interest margin for the first quarter decreased thirteen basis points to 4.21 percent, compared with 4.34 percent for the prior quarter and decreased eight basis points from 4.29 percent in the year ago quarter.

  • Capital levels remain well above FDIC "Well Capitalized" standards. June 30, 2016 equity of $24.0 million increased 9.5 percent from the prior year and resulted in a common equity tier 1 capital ratio of 8.88 percent, and a tier 1 capital and total capital ratio of 10.72 percent and 11.97 percent respectively.

  • Book value per common share increased to $4.62 as of June 30, 2016 from $4.52 at March 31, 2016 and $4.23 at June 30, 2015. The twelve month increase in book value per common share was 9.3 percent.

"We are pleased to report record total assets and deposits for the second quarter of 2016. While quarterly earnings were off somewhat from last quarter's record earnings, due to one-time non-interest expenses and delays in recognizing SBA premium income, year to date after-tax earnings of just under $1-million is certainly the best first half performance in the bank's history," said William S. Keller, President and Chief Executive Officer. "With the traditionally strong second half of the year ahead of us, we are working hard to make our 20th anniversary year a record for both financial results and community impact. Record earnings, deposits, and loans would be a fitting goal for such a milestone year."
