This compares to the third quarter of 2009 net loss of $777,000, or $(0.23) basic earnings per share. The significant improvement in operating results for the third quarter of 2010 as compared to the same period in 2009 was primarily attributable to a $2,050,000 decrease in the provision for loan losses and a $398,000 increase in non-interest income offset by the related income tax effects of these items.

Net income for the nine-months ended September 30, 2010 totaled $2,210,000, or $0.64 basic earnings per share compared to $1,990,000, or $0.58 basic earnings per share for the same period in 2009. Compared with the same period in 2009, net income increased $220,000 or 11.1%. The increase for the nine month period ended September 30, 2010, as compared to the nine month period ended September 30, 2009, was primarily the result of a decrease in the provision for loan losses of $1,225,000 and an increase in net interest income of $612,000, offset by a decrease in non-interest income of $1,001,000, an increase in non-interest expenses of $532,000, and an $84,000 increase in the provision for income taxes. The significant decrease in non-interest income was primarily attributable to a $738,000 decrease in gain on sale of loans, and $434,000 impact of the change in fair value of mortgage servicing rights, offset by a $146,000 increase in gain on sales of securities.

Gain on sales of loans amounted to $286,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2010, compared to $241,000 for the third quarter of 2009, an increase of $45,000. Quarterly gains on sale of loans included capitalized servicing rights of $97,000 and $107,000 for the periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Gain on sales of loans amounted to $475,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to $1,213,000 for the comparable period in 2009, a decrease of $738,000. Gain on sale of loans for the nine month periods included capitalized servicing rights of $153,000 in 2010 and $550,000 in 2009. The significant decrease in gain on sale of loans corresponds with the decrease in loan sales activity. Loan sales for the first nine months of 2010 were $20.1 million, compared to $56.0 million for the first nine months of 2009.

For the quarter ended September 30, 2010, non-interest expenses were $3,763,000, compared to $3,638,000 for the third quarter of 2009, a $125,000 (3.4%) increase. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2010, non-interest expenses totaled $11,619,000, compared to $11,086,000 for the comparable period of 2009, an increase of $533,000 (4.8%).

The $443,000 increase in other non-interest expenses includes increases of $526,000 relating to other real estate owned and related asset management costs; $82,000 in advertising, $53,000 in consulting expenses, $76,000 in ATM processing expenses, $101,000 in miscellaneous losses; and $71,000 in miscellaneous expenses, offset by a $306,000 decrease in FDIC premium expenses and a $106,000 net decrease in deposit premium amortization. The increase in consulting expense is primarily related to the Findlay branch acquisition described in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements. The increase in other real estate owned and related asset management costs is attributable to the significant increase in other real estate owned and includes $151,000 of impairment charges taken during the first nine months of 2010, as well as $29,000 of losses recognized on sale of OREO properties. The decrease in FDIC expenses resulted from the 2009 one-time industry-wide special assessment that was expensed during the second quarter. Deposit premium amortization decreased as a result of the Pemberville and Gibsonburg deposit premium being fully amortized in March, 2010.

Total assets amounted to $619.9 million at September 30, 2010, compared to $616.4 million at December 31, 2009, an increase of $3.5 million, or 0.6%.
