"The bank continues to realize consistent growth in commercial loan and deposit balances. Annualized loan and deposit growth of 6.7% and 5.1%, respectively, has improved the bank’s asset mix and increased the loan to deposit ratio to 75%. We expect continued loan growth, a gradual increase in short and long term market rates, and a steepening yield curve will positively impact net interest income. For the first time in many years we are beginning to see higher repricing of yields on adjustable rate loans," stated Ralph J. Lober, president and chief executive officer. He added that, “improved asset quality metrics reflect stronger economic conditions and the resolution of problem credits."
