"While the third quarter was challenging, we are beginning to see tangible signs of progress as we integrate our two banks and cultures into one team," stated president and chief executive officer Charles N. Funk. "The 12.07% return on tangible equity we achieved for the quarter is a good start toward building a consistent earnings stream. Additionally, we ended the quarter with a large pipeline of commercial loans. We continue to make progress to rationalize our expenses, including having made significant progress in amortizing the balance of the FDIC indemnification receivable, which has had a negative impact on 2016 earnings. We continue to believe our future is very promising."
