 (core earnings) for the six months ended June June: see month.  30, 1996, was $3.4 million compared to $2.8 million at this time last year, or a 20.4 percent increase. Assets grew by $64.3 million, or 9.3 percent, to $752.5 million. Deposits and loans increased by 11.5 percent, to $663.2 million and 34.4 percent, to $530.1 million, respectively. Return on average assets and return on average equity increased during the same period by 12 and 132 basis points, respectively.

Loan growth consisted of an increase in consumer loan outstandings of $43.0 million, or 39.8 percent, to $151.1 million. Corporate loans continued a strong growth pattern through the second quarter of 1996, with total corporate loans increasing $34.1 million, or 18.8 percent, from 1995 to 1996. Residential mortgage loans grew to $58.5 million, or 55.7 percent, to $163.5 million, as of June 30, 1996.

Core earnings, for the three months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, both equaled $1.5 million. Average loans outstanding during the three month period increased $113.8 million, or 29.1 percent, to $505.5 million, and average deposit increased $58.0 million, or 9.9 percent, to $644.1 million. Operating expenses Operating expenses

 for the three month period were higher in 1996 due to an increase in the loan loss provision and other non-interest expenses. Net interest income before the provision for loan losses was up $225,000 over the same three month period in 1995. The change was due to increased loan volumes offset by a lower interest margin and higher deposit volumes.

Bell, chairman and chief executive officer for the corporation commented, "Loans grew as a result of increased penetration The successful unauthorized breach of a security perimeter. See penetration test.  in all loan categories and improved economic conditions in the market areas served by the corporation. Deposits also grew as a result of aggressive advertising of core deposits and special term certificate of deposits, each attracting new customers. The deposit growth was used to fund the increased loan volumes."

It is anticipated that the restructuring charge will be recovered by the corporation through lower operating costs operating costs nplgastos mpl operacionales  over a 2-3 year period.
