The allowance for loan losses was $10.8 million, or 1.90% of period end loans at September 30, 1999, as compared to $8.3 million, or 1.77% of period end loans at September 30, 1998.

Non-interest income was $3.0 million for fiscal 1999, an increase of $495,000, or 19.4% over the fiscal year ended September 30, 1998. The increase was primarily due to increases in net gains on sales of mortgage loans, trust commissions, loan servicing Loan servicing is the process by which a mortgage bank or subservicing firm collects the timely payment of interest and principal from borrowers. The level of service varies depending on the type loan and the terms negotiated between the firm and the investor seeking their services. fees, and service charges on deposit accounts.

The Company's total assets were $915.1 million and $716.6 million at September 30, 1999 and September 30, 1998, respectively. The $198.5 million increase was principally due to net proceeds from the Company's initial public offering of $113.7 million, as well as a $100.3 million increase in borrowings from the FHLB FHLB Federal Home Loan Bank , partially offset by a $14.8 million decrease in deposits, primarily attributable attributable emanating from or pertaining to attribute. attributable proportion see attributable risk (below). attributable risk to authorized au·thor·ize tr.v. au·thor·ized, au·thor·iz·ing, au·thor·iz·es 1.
