H. Charles Maddy III, president and chief executive officer of Summit, commented, "While I was very disappointed recently to report the substantial charge to our first quarter earnings to resolve the ResCap litigation, we believe this settlement was in the best interests of the Company and our shareholders; it eliminates the possibility of any additional exposure relative to this issue and puts it behind us, thus allowing us to direct more resources towards enhancing long-term shareholder value. On a more positive note, Summit achieved another quarter of solid core operating performance highlighted by our improving net interest margin and core loan growth. The former Highland County Bankshares’ banking operations are now fully integrated into Summit, and its impact on our performance is exceeding our expectations. Going forward, our recently closed acquisition of FCB represents another exceptional opportunity. This transaction combines two financially strong banks with similar cultures, core values and exceptional opportunities for operational synergies, as well as a shared commitment to build long-term client relationships by providing service beyond expectations. We converted FCB’s data processing systems and re-identified its branches to that of Summit’s effective April 24, 2017."
