James Rickard, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Our Company is positioned to carry the momentum of 2010 into a new year.  Our forward progress has been led by repositioning the funding side of our balance sheet.  Less reliance on wholesale funding, initiated by our culture of relationship building and exceptional service, has provided a steady trend of growth in core low-cost deposit accounts.  Our core deposit base now funds 77% of the assets on our balance sheet.  Two short years ago, borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank funded 13% of the asset side of our balance sheet.  Today, the same borrowings fund 6% of our balance sheet.  In short, we have a stronger funding mix that provides the flexibility to better navigate interest rate movements outside of our control.”

Rickard continued, “Our team realizes we can accomplish more.  One of our key strategic initiatives for the coming year will continue to be focusing on reducing non-performing assets.  Our credit department continues to be very engaged and proactive in this area.  Headwinds remain given the housing recovery is lagging the macro economy, which is still suffering from elevated levels of unemployment.  Those two factors, in my view, are the two most critical for this lengthy recovery.  Our initiative to continuously improve remains within our control.  Investing in our service culture, the skill-sets of our team members, technology, and processes will be our unwavering commitment to all stakeholders as we press forward.”
