A Letter to Our Shareholders, Clients, and Team Members:

As the result of a significant improvement in second quarter earnings as compared to the first quarter, I am pleased to report income before taxes of $5.6 million or $1.38 basic earnings per share for the first half of 2023.  I am also pleased to report that after a review of your Company's earnings, capital position, risk profile and strategic plan, your Board of Directors declared a $0.22 per share cash dividend, payable to shareholders on September 15, 2023. The dividend is approximately 28% of the reported net income for the second quarter of 2023.

Your Company reported a noticeable improvement in our second quarter operating performance when compared to the first quarter, as a result of the implementation of a non-interest expense reduction strategy, increased gain on loan sales and stabilizing net interest income.  When comparing the second quarter to the first quarter of 2023, your Company reported a $652,000 (33%) increase in pretax income, primarily as a result of a $355,000 (4.2%) reduction in non-interest expense and a $317,000 increase in gain on loan sales offset by a stabilized reduction in net interest income of $127,000 (1.5%).  Regarding non-interest expenses, the Company reported a 15% reduction in salary and benefits for the first half of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022.  That reduction was primarily the result of a companywide reduction of staffing levels and reduced incentive compensation. While staffing adjustments are always evaluated, I believe we are at the level needed to effectively service our clients and grow relationships most efficiently.

The continued accomplishments of your Company are the undeniable result of the ongoing efforts of our dedicated team members and Board of Directors in implementing our Strategic Plan. Their efforts and our strong corporate values of respect for, and accountability to, our shareholders, clients, colleagues, and communities are the foundation for the continued success of your Company.  Thank you for your ongoing support and the trust you have placed in us.

Respectfully,

Brian D. Young,
President & CEO
