, Chief Executive Officer. "First of all, our core growth has been exceptional. Additionally, we accomplished three strategic mergers with great banks and increased our branch network from 33 to more than 75 branches in Texas' two largest cities where we believe strong opportunities exist for our type of banking. While important to our strategic growth, these activities have had a cost in short term merger-related expenses, core deposit intangible amortization expense, and in higher interest expense. However, the results this quarter from our focus on merger integration, expense management and deposit growth are meeting our expectations. We believe we are very well-positioned for the future."
