Highlight of Business Operations:

Net income was $2.6 million for the second quarter of 2009 compared to $1.6 million for the second quarter of 2008. Net income available to common shareholders for the second quarter of 2009 was $1.7 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, compared with $1.3 million, or $0.12 per diluted share, for the second quarter of last year. Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2009 totaled $5.6 million compared to $5.4 million for the same period in 2008. For the first six months of 2009 net income available to common shareholders was $3.8 million, or $0.35 per diluted share, compared with $4.7 million, or $0.43 per diluted share, for the first six months of 2008.

Net income increased $1.0 million, or 61%, for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and increased $185 thousand, or 3%, for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the same periods in 2008. The increase for the three months ended June 30, 2009 was primarily the result of a $1.5 million increase in net interest income and a $3.6 million increase in noninterest income partly offset by a $730 thousand increase in the provision for loan losses, a $2.1 million increase in noninterest expense and a $1.3 million increase in income tax expense. The increase in net income during the six months ended June 30, 2009 was primarily the result of a $3.7 million increase in net interest income and a $3.5 million increase in noninterest income partly offset by a $1.9 million increase in the provision for loan losses, a $3.9 million increase in noninterest expense and a $1.3 million increase in income tax expense.

Interest on loans was $17.8 million for second quarter of 2009, compared to $16.4 million for the second quarter of 2008. The average balance of loans was $1.193 billion with an average yield of 5.99% for the second quarter of 2009 compared to an average balance of $990.1 million with an average yield of 6.65% for the second quarter of 2008. Average commercial loans in 2009 increased $61.8 million, as compared to 2008 primarily due to continued strong growth in our commercial loan portfolio. The average balance of consumer indirect loans, comprised almost entirely of automobile loans, increased $144.4 million for the second quarter of 2009 over the corresponding quarter last year. This 92% increase in volume was primarily responsible for the $2.4 million increase in interest income on consumer indirect loans when comparing the second quarter of 2009 to that of 2008.

Interest on deposits was $4.9 million for the second quarter of 2009, compared to $7.4 million for the second quarter of 2008.

The average balance of noninterest-bearing deposits increased to $286.2 million or 4% during the second quarter of this year compared to the same quarter last year. The increase in the balance of total deposits is due to a 12% increase in public and 5% increase in nonpublic deposits, while the decrease in average cost is due primarily to the beneficial repricing of certificates of deposits, and to a lesser extent savings and money market accounts, at lower interest rates. The declines in interest and average cost on borrowed funds from last years second quarter to this years second quarter are due to reductions in market interest rates.
