The net interest margin was 4.15% for the current quarter ended June 30, 2011 compared to 4.20% for the previous quarter ended March 31, 2011 and this compares with 4.32% for the same year ago period.

Other income was $421 thousand for the fourth fiscal quarter of 2011 compared with $459 thousand for the quarter ended June 30, 2010. Other income in the fourth fiscal quarter of 2011 was impacted by an additional $170 thousand impairment charge on the Bank’s only trust preferred holding, which had an adjusted amortized cost of $202 thousand as of June 30, 2011. In the fourth fiscal quarter of 2010, other income was impacted by a $130 thousand impairment charge on that same trust preferred holding. Other expenses increased $150 thousand, or 6.6%, for the fourth fiscal quarter of 2011 from the same period last year.

Ralph J. Lober, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “we are pleased to have come through the turbulent year with strong earning and asset growth as well as improved asset quality. We shared these successes with our shareholders who realized a ten percent increase in the fourth quarter corporate dividend. Effective management of non-performing assets and reduced exposure to the Bank’s one trust preferred holding contribute to a strong balance sheet. While general economic activity remains slow, there are signs of increased commercial loan demand which will allow a gradual shift from lower yielding investments to higher yielding asset classes.”
