The continued growth in the Bank's loan and deposit portfolios generally lead to a higher level of non-interest income. Therefore, to a large extent, most of the increases were indirectly caused by the continued growth of the Bank's loan and deposit portfolios. Operating Results for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 (continued) Non-interest Expense Non-interest expense totaled $5.3 million for 2005, up $1.3 million, or 32 percent, from $4.0 million for 2004.

The continued growth in the Bank's loan and deposit portfolios generally lead to a higher level of non-interest income. Therefore, to a large extent, most of the increases were indirectly caused by the continued growth of the Bank's loan and deposit portfolios.

The increase in both salaries and employee benefits and occupancy and equipment reflected significant infrastructure expansion in 2005 with one new banking office and one new brokerage office, as well as the conversion to an in-house data processing system in March of 2005. The Bank added 14 new employees in 2005 bringing total full-time equivalent employees to 44. The decrease in data and items processing expenses of $68,000, or 70 percent, to $29,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2005 is primarily attributable to savings associated with the conversion to an in-house data processing system from an outsourced data processing system. Professional and advertising expenses increased $42,000, or 27 percent, to $199,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2005, primarily as a result of higher advertising expenses in 2005 compared to 2004. Other non-interest expenses increased $147,000, or 115 percent, to $275,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2005, primarily as a result of one-time costs associated with the conversion to an in-house data processing system in March of 2005 as well as the opening in Greensboro of the Bank's third banking office in August of 2005. Comparison of Financial Condition at December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004 The Bank's assets increased from $134.4 million to $172.5 million, or 28 percent, from December 31, 2004 to December 31, 2005, respectively.
