Letter To Our Shareholders

Dear Shareholders:

Steve Wilson

We are pleased to report to our sharehold-
ers the completion of another successful year in 
2011 despite economic and regulatory challenges. 
At the end of 2010 we pre-
dicted  and  hoped  for  an 
improving U.S. economy in 
2011.  By  most  measure-
ments the economy gained 
some  strength  in  2011 
although  unemployment 
still  remained  too  high. 
Interest rates remained low 
throughout 2011 and con-
tinue to remain low as we 
enter  2012.  Consistent  
with  general 
industry 
trends,  historic  sustained 
low  interest  rates  put  pressure  on  the  Bank’s 
interest margin in 2011. Additionally, the passage 
of the Dodd-Frank Bill in 2010 has added and 
will add additional regulations that create a com-
pliance  burden  for  financial  institutions.  That 
compliance burden is predicted to be a contribut-
ing factor in the closing, selling, or merging of at 
least 25% of financial institutions in the next 3 to 
5 years. Compliance is an expensive task and a 
larger  burden  for  financial  institutions  smaller 
than LCNB that do not have the staff to dedicate 
to  compliance.  Many  small  communities  have 
only one bank and the loss of those banks will 
have a negative effect on the success and quality 
of life for many citizens.  Nevertheless, the drivers 
of  our  success  are  our  strong  corporate  values 
which continue to lead us in this environment.

This Annual Report highlights “Building 
for  the  Future  with  Personal  Service,  Conve-

within this report, LCNB realizes the importance 
of excellent customer service and the many ways  
that customer service is presented. The Board of

ings release, we believe that consistency in per-

long-term versus a short-term view. To that end, 
we are pleased that for over 35 years your Bank 
has  achieved  at  least  a  1%  return  on  average 
assets and double digit return on average equity. 
Of greatest importance to you, our shareholder, is 
the consistent dividend payment that has been 
the result of that performance. Net income was 
$8.1 million, resulting in total basic earnings per 
share of $1.21. LCNB’s total assets grew by 4.1% 
or $31.4 million to $791.6 million from Decem-
ber  31,  2010  to  December  31,  2011.  Total  net 
loans grew by $6.0 million or 1.3% in 2011 with 
commercial loans growing 7.7%. The continued 
low interest rate environment allowed consumers 
to finance or refinance their mortgages. LCNB 
originated or refinanced $26 million in 1-4 family 
mortgages for consumers in 2011. Another $9.4

Letter To Our Shareholders

million of 1-4 family mortgages were originated 
and sold in the secondary market during 2011. 
Total shareholders’ equity on December 31, 2011 
was $78.0 million which was an increase of 10.3% 
from December 31, 2010. Our capital remains in 
the “well capitalized” designation. 

In the first quarter for 2011 LCNB Corp. 
sold  the  insurance  subsidiary  Dakin  Insurance 
Agency. David Beckett, the President of Dakin 
Insurance, made the decision to move out of state 
and LCNB’s Board of Directors and management 
decided to take that opportunity to sell the insur-
ance agency to the Rixey-Berry Insurance Group. 
That sale was completed in late March  2011 and 
was recognized as a gain on LCNB Corp.’s finan-
cial statements. 

Unfortunately, in 2011 the LCNB family 
was  saddened  by  the  sudden  deaths  of  three 
LCNB employees. In early March, Ed Hale, Vice 
President of Mortgage Loans, was stricken by a 
heart attack and died suddenly. Although Ed had 
only been with LCNB for two years, many of us 
had known Ed as a local banker for over thirty-six 
years. In late July, Ben Jackson lost his battle with 
cancer. Ben had worked at LCNB for over thirty-
seven years helping LCNB grow from a $30 mil-
lion asset bank to an almost $800 million asset 
bank  at  his  death.  Ben’s  dedication  and  hard 
work  was  instrumental  in  LCNB’s  growth  and 
success. In late December, Linda Palmer also died 
suddenly. Linda had worked in our Mason office 
as a teller for over ten years. Linda was well-liked 
by her fellow employees and her customers. All 
three were an important part of the LCNB family 
and will be missed.

Several projects that were started in 2010 
were  completed  in  2011.  The  replacement  of 

Continued
older ATMs with new touch screen models was 
completed in 2011. The construction of a new 
full service branch in Monroe, Ohio was started 
in November, 2010 and it opened in June, 2011. 
The  construction  of  a  new  Auto  Bank  at  the 
Main  Office  was  also  completed  in  2011.  The 
new Auto Bank includes a drive-up ATM and a 
drive-up  night  depository.  We  also  closed  our 
Bridgetown Office during 2011. While that may 
sound like a negative, it does demonstrate that 
your Board and Management consistently strive 
to insure that all our operations are either cur-
rently  profitable  or  have  strong  potential  to 
enhance  our  bottom  line.  Work  on  providing 
mobile  banking  using  smart  phones  was  also 
started in late 2011 to roll out in early 2012.

Additional  statistical  data  and  informa-
tion  on  our  financial  performance  for  2011  is 
available in the LCNB Corp. Annual Report on 
Form 10-K. This report is filed annually with the 
Securities and Exchange Commission. We have 
enclosed the Form 10-K with the initial mailing 
of this report to shareholders and it is available 
upon request or from the shareholder informa-
tion section on our website, www.LCNB.com or 
www.lcnbcorp.com.

The Annual Meeting for LCNB Corp. will 
be Tuesday, April 24th, 2012 at 10:00 a.m. at our 
Main Office located at 2 North Broadway in Leb-
anon, Ohio. Proxy material is included with this 
initial mailing. Please review, sign, and return the 
proxy  in  the  envelope  provided.  We  would  be 
pleased to have you attend our annual meeting in 
person. Thank you for your continued support.

Building for the Future  
with Personal Service, Convenience and Performance

Every era in banking presents new challenges and opportunities to assure our LCNB National Bank customers that their Bank 
is a safe and secure place to invest, borrow and grow their money. And, as a community bank, we must also assure our custom-
ers that our financial products, technology and delivery channels are the best and most secure available without sacrificing the 
personal service and convenience upon which they depend. Our final challenge is that the Bank must blend these assurances 
together to serve our customers and provide the expected results of our shareholders. To some this sounds daunting, but we 
have a long history of meeting these challenges and turning them into opportunities.

For example, in 1877 our Founders opened the Bank in very trying times with the promise to their customers that 
they would provide the best in security and safety with easy access to their money. They accomplished this by being 
open convenient hours, staffing with knowledgeable people and installing a 6,000 lb. safe. Everyone in the Bank was 
involved. We like to think of this as state-of-the-art technology in 

community banking 135 years ago.

Today, our challenge to meet those same assurances has not changed in scope. 
Our people are knowledgeable and dedicated. We concentrate our efforts on 
personal service and offering the best in financial products and services. And 
although we have a much larger vault today, we also have more secure delivery 
channels that serve the same purpose. Some things never change. We continue 
to turn challenges into opportunities.

Dedication and Education

The  majority  of  our  officers  and  staff  have  long  careers  with  the 
Bank.  They  all  agree  that  constant  internal  and  external  educa-
tion  about  products,  services  and  security  are  a  key  to  their  suc-
cess. Their education and knowledge are challenged everyday with 
questions from our customers. These questions range from how a product can 
help them manage their finances more easily to just solving a problem. What-
ever the situation, when we help them find the answers they are looking for we 
all feel a sense of satisfaction in a job well done. That is the essence of com-
munity banking.

Bricks and Mortar – 25 Offices

LCNB is a community bank. We still hold true to the traditions of 
local service and personal banking. Despite the explosion of high-
tech offerings, our customers still want the ability to walk into their 
LCNB office and visit with our personnel. It gives them a comfort 
level of knowing with whom they are investing their money or have their loan. 
Our 25 offices continue to be one 
of  our  most  important  delivery 
channels.  During  this  past  year, 
we opened a new office in Mon-
roe and built a new Auto Bank to 
replace our 35-year old structure. 
Both  of  these  offices  provide  a 
greater presence for the Bank in 
important markets we serve.

Our ATM Network, BankLine, Imaging, and IT Department

When we first installed our ATMs, it became obvious that additional 
delivery channels would be carried through phone lines. From that 
moment, we began to build for the future. Our Information Technol-
ogy (IT) Department was created and they were given the ongoing 
task  to  find  safe  and  secure  solutions  to  the  many  new  technologies  being  of-
fered. Around this same time, the Bank introduced BankLine, our automated 
telephone banking service. This allowed our customers to perform some of their 
banking functions with a touchtone phone. We also invested in imaging scan-
ners for our checking and busi-
ness customers. This provided a 
quick search and secure mechanism for someone seeking records. Today, these 
services are nothing like their predecessors. The evolution of each through 
software upgrades, satellites and the Internet has made them extremely vital 
to our customers in managing their finances. Our IT Department grew in its 
acquired knowledge and personnel so that we can keep these delivery chan-
nels running securely to serve our customers anywhere in the world.

Online Banking, Online Loan  
Applications and Call Center

Providing Internet access for all of our products and services in a 
safe, secure and dependable manner has always been a high priority 
and a challenge. At the same time, new services were being offered 
and developed. We knew our customers wanted the option to use 
the new available technology like Online Banking and Online Loan Applica-
tions.  However,  customers  did  not  want  to  sacrifice  their  personal  interac-
tion with their Bank. Leading the effort to promote the benefits of both was 
the management team, but the day-to-day solution-providers were our Infor-
mation Technology Department and the Call Center. Our Call Center staff  
personally  answers  every  phone  call,  answers  questions,  solves 
problems,  transfers  customers  to  correct  departments,  and  pro-
vides the personal touch that helps define our personal banking style.

Mobile Banking

Mobile Banking, our newest delivery channel, allows our custom-
ers  to  access  their  accounts  on  their  smart  phone  and  perform 
many of the same transactions currently performed on their com-
puters or in-person at one of our offices. This service has grown in 
popularity because of the change in our customers’ lifestyles and work sched-
ules. When we combine our mobile banking with personal service – this gives 
us an edge in the competitive banking world and one in which we 
are most proud.
