, we also succeeded in adding higher margin commercial and consumer loans to our portfolio. These two factors combined to improve our net interest margin to 3.00% in 2005 from 2.49% in 2004."

Review of significant areas:

Net Interest Margin - In 2005, management was able to produce significant improvement in the net interest margin. This improvement was the result of Camco's continued emphasis on growth in the commercial, commercial real estate and consumer loan portfolios and effective cost of funds management, emphasizing lower cost, transaction-based deposit accounts as well as the significant restructuring of FHLB borrowings that occurred at the end of 2004. For the 4th quarter 2005, the net interest margin increased to 3.17% from 2.55% for 2004, for the year ended December 31, 2005 the net interest margin increased to 3.00% from 2.49% for calendar year 2004.

Non-Interest Income - For the quarter ended December 31, 2005, non-interest income was $1.71 million versus $8.55 million for the same period last year. Excluding the sale of our Ashland-Kentucky banking division as well as facilities in New Philadelphia, Ohio New Philadelphia is a city in Tuscarawas County, Ohio, United States, 71 miles south of Cleveland on the Tuscarawas River.

, non-interest income would have been 1.92 million in 2004. The primary reason for this decline in non-interest income was the change year-to-year in the sale of real estate acquired through foreclosure foreclosure

 from a net gain in the 4th quarter 2004 of $123,000 to a net loss in the 4th quarter 2005 of $39,000.

Operating Expenses Operating expenses

 - For the quarter ended December 31, 2005, operating expenses were $5.64 million versus $24.43 million for the 4th quarter 2004. Excluding the effect of the restructuring of FHLB borrowings in the 4th quarter of 2004, operating expenses were $5.64 million and $5.55 million in 2005 and 2004 respectively, or an increase of 1.69%.

Asset Quality - Non-performing loans A non-performing loan is a loan that is in default or close to being in default. Many loans become non-performing after being in default for 3 months, but this can depend on the contract terms.  as a percentage of loans increased from 1.17% at December 31, 2004 to 1.64% at December 31, 2005. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of loans has increased from 78 basis points at December 31, 2004 to 82 basis points at December 31, 2005. Management is committed to reducing the level of non-performing loans over the coming months.

Critical to this strategy is the growth of the balance sheet and the corresponding increase in net interest margin.
