Matt Wagner, Chief Executive Officer, commented, "Our first quarter results continue to demonstrate sustained profits and a strong balance sheet, with adjusted net earnings of $17.0 million and stockholders' equity at 11.1% of assets. Our net interest margin remains at a superior level compared to peers and credit quality continues to be stable. Loan growth is challenging, as we continue to resist competing for term real estate loans having rates substantially below our net interest margin and durations that give rise to unacceptable interest rate risk. Nevertheless, we grew the C&I portfolio by $6.8 million, with our asset financing segment leading the way with a net $49.2 million in new loans and leases. Our loan pipeline for the next three quarters has built-up nicely due to slowly improving economic conditions in our markets, our focus on existing customers for referrals, and service levels that enable us to attract and retain business from the larger banks."
Matt Wagner, Chief Executive Officer, commented, "We had an exceptional fourth quarter and year. Our fourth quarter earnings of $19.9 million contributed to our solid capital base. Credit quality continues to improve, and our reserve coverage ratios are strong. Although we resisted competing for term real estate loans at low rates and long durations, we had $28.3 million of solid growth in our C&I and lease portfolios during the fourth quarter."
