I am pleased to write this message to 

you, our loyal shareholders, updating 
you on the Bank’s progress during 

2018. The year 2018 produced solid 
financial results highlighted by net 
income of $4.2 million, the issuance of 
a 5% stock dividend and balance sheet 
growth of 6.4%. The balance sheet 
growth was composed of 5.2% of loan 
portfolio growth, which was funded by 
deposit growth of 7.6%.

Thomas M. Carr
President & Chief Executive Officer

TO OUR
Shareholders

In addition to the financial results, we 
continued to invest in developing our 
staff’s sales abilities, improving our 
customer-based technologies, and 
launching a new marketing campaign.

Net income totaled $4.2 million for 2018 
compared to $4.9 million in 2017. The 
decrease in net income is due to a $0.6 
million increase in income tax expense 
and a decrease of $0.9 million in non-
interest income partially offset by a $0.5 
million decrease in the provision for 
loan losses and $0.4 million decrease in 
non-interest expense. The results from 
2017 were positively impacted by the 
one-time tax adjustment due to the tax 
law changes, which totaled $1.2 million.

The $4.2 million of net income produced 
diluted earnings per share of $1.21, the 
same as 2017. During the year, the Bank 
issued a 5% stock dividend while paying 
a cash dividend of $0.92 per share.

Net interest income totaled $16.6 
million, slightly ahead of the $16.5 
million recorded in 2017. Our net 
interest margin decreased by 1 basis 
point from 3.32 in 2017 to 3.31 in 2018. 
This slight margin decline was more 
than offset in net interest income by 
earnings on increases in average loans 
and deposits.

Non-interest income declined by $0.9 
million, primarily the result of lower 
sales of mortgages to the secondary 
markets. During 2018, the Bank sold 
$39.6 million, or 49%, of its total 
mortgage production compared 
to $63.3 million, or 71%, of its total 
mortgage production in 2017. The effect 
of this lower sales volume was to reduce 
our gain on sale of mortgage revenue 
by $1.1 million from $2.7 million in 2017 
to $1.6 million in 2018.

Non-interest expense was well 
controlled in 2018 totaling $15.5 million, 
or 2.5%, below the 2017 level of $15.9 
million. Salaries and benefits were 
$95,000, or 1.2%, lower year to year. 
Marketing expense and professional 
fees were $148,000 and $179,000 lower 
respectively. These positive variances 
were partially offset by increases in net 
occupancy and equipment expense of 
$97,000 and $114,000 respectively.

The loan portfolio increased by $23.6 
million, or 5.2%, from December 31, 
2017 to December 31, 2018. The 5.2% 
loan growth rate was significantly 
higher than the two previous years, 
which were less than one percent 
growth. The $23.6 million of growth was 
composed of consumer loan growth of 
$9.5 million, commercial loan growth of 
$11.5 million and residential mortgage 
loan growth of $2.2 million. 

Residential mortgage originations 
totaled $81.7 million in 2018 compared 
to $89.7 million in 2017. During 2018, 
the Bank added $42.0 million of 
mortgages to its portfolio compared to 
$26.4 million added in 2017. The result 
of the increase in portfolio loans was 
$2.2 million of residential mortgage 
portfolio growth.
