'It) Our S1i;ireliolders: 
T)urinp 2006, Shore Banushares continued to solid- 
ify its position  as the letiding independent comniunity 
tianking organization headqifiirtered on the Dclmarva 
Peninsula. 
In a very challenging operating environment, we 
rcpnrtcd  full-ycat net inconir ol'$13.6 million  or $1.61 
per diluted sharc, up S.2%  over the very strong yrar 
that wc enjoyed i n  2005. Wc  recently  incrensrd the cash 
dividend to :in  annualized rate of $64  per share, which 
results in  a payoutol39.5%  of2006 earnings and a 
yield of slightly more th:m  2.5%  based on a stock price 
ol$25. We also split the srock 3-for-2 during the srcond 
rliiarler. 
Our banltiiig  performance  for the full year was 
sirlid, with good luan growth throughout  the year and a 
healthy 11.7u/0 increase in kr income. Thc net interest 
margin during 2006 was consistenl with the prior year 
at 4.70%1, despite a tough and vriy prrsistent  interest 
rate scenario combined wilh inleiise competition for 
deposits throughout  our markets. We d d e d  suhstan- 
tially to the provision for credit  lossrs, primarily in a n  
act ol' prudence to account for licalthy loan growth 
across the portfcrlios. Overall credit quality remains 
excellent, however, and continues to be ;i hallmark of 
this organization. 
'I'he Company's return on avcragc assets lor thr 
year w;is  1.52% and our rcturti  on average stockholdrrs' 
equity was  12.66%. Total stoclrholdcrs' equity w:is  ovrr 
$1 11 million at year-end,  advancing  liy about 9% and 
ciiliancing our strong capital position. 
At  r)cccmber  31,2006, toh1 
lion, m a l  deposits weir $774 million  and loans totaled 
$700 million. At a h i e  when  the ciitirc industry is 
working  its way through a very dillicult  cyclc, wc arc 
pleasrd that thr strength and profitability  ol Shore 
kincshares and its underlying  marlxts havc consistent- 
ly cnahlcd 11s to produce a healthy return to our sharc- 
holders . . . and also enabled  u s  to generate good organic 
bdancc shcct growth.

ral  siibniarkrts  pockets of oppcrrtunity  - where the 
small  tiusincss and population growth rates, prr capita 
income and tinusehold spending lcvcls arc above stair 
and national  averages. 
From time t(-r !imc, mmngrmcnt cxplorcs thr pos- 
sihility of strarcgic transactions with wcl I-run, sitcccss-
