Income Statement

The Company reported net income of $0.4 million or $0.02 per share, for the three months ended September 30, 2012, compared to net income of $1.4 million, or $0.05 per share, for the three months ended September 30, 2011.

Earnings continue to improve on a year to year basis as the loan loss provision and other credit costs decrease due to the substantial improvement in asset quality. For the nine month period ended September 30, 2012, the Company recorded a loan loss provision in the amount of $0.6 million compared to a $5.7 million provision during the nine months ended September 30, 2011.

The Company continues to lower its cost of funds as evidenced by a decrease of 8 basis points to 0.65% for the three months ended September 30, 2012, compared to 0.73% for the three months ended June 30, 2012. The net interest margin increased to 3.69% for the three month period ended September 30, 2012 compared to 3.59% for the three month period ended June 30, 2012.

Non-interest income decreased to $1.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012 compared to $4.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011, primarily due to gains on sales of investment securities and legal settlement income recognized in the prior year quarter as well as lower gains on sales of SBA loans in the current quarter.
