Commenting on the results, Harry J.

These improvements reflect both higher income from fees, tax-advantaged investments and other sources, which have offset lower gains on sales of loans and increased costs associated with the opening a new branch location in December December: see month. 1999. Our continued progress over the balance of 2000 will depend to a large extent on the impact that interest rate hikes - past and potential - have on our future lending volume and the yield on our interest-earning assets."
