The bank produced net income amounting to $1,763,000 or $0.91 per basic share in the second quarter. This amount compares to a net income of $1,582,000 or $0.83 per share, for the same period last year.  For the six months-ended the bank produced net income amounting to $3,306,000 or $1.72 per basic share. This amount compares to a net income of $3,562,000 or $1.87 per share, for the same period last year.

At June 30, 2022, select financial information and key highlights include:

  • Return on average assets of 0.94%

  • Community Bank Leverage Ratio of 8.84%
  • Strong liquidity position
  • Net interest margin of 3.26% at June 30, 2022 compared to 3.03% one year prior.

As a result of the solid financial performance, the board of directors voted to pay the $0.185 per share quarterly dividend, or $0.74 per share annualized which is payable on August 19, 2022 to shareholders of record August 12, 2022.

President & CEO G. Lyn Hayth III said, “We have had a strong 2022 so far, spurred by steady loan and deposit growth. This momentum has helped our bank exceed budget expectations the first six months of the year.”

Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $1,763,000 compared to $1,582,000 for the same period last year, representing an increase of $181,000 or 11.4%.  Basic and diluted earnings per share increased $0.08 from $0.83 at June 30, 2021 to $0.91 at June 30, 2022.  The increase in net income is primarily due to $301,000 increase in investment income and $74,000 increase in interchange fees, offset by $225,000 provision for loan loss.
