We increased operating earnings Operating Earnings Profits after subtracting expenses such as marketing, cost of goods sold, administration and general operating costs from revenue. Notes: Tax and interest expenses are not subtracted - operating earnings are synonymous with EBIT (earnings before , strengthened our balance sheet, invested in our banking franchise, and continued to make progress on all aspects of our long term strategic plan. Through these actions we are moving forward on our goal of building a better community bank for our customers, our employees, our communities, and our stockholders. One significant factor behind our solid 2005 performance was our decision in December 2004 to refinance Refinance 1. When a business or person revises their payment schedule for repaying debt. 2. Replacing an older loan with a new loan offering better terms. Notes: When a business refinances they typically extend the maturity date. $144.1 million in fixed rate borrowings. As well, the resulting reduction in interest rate risk and interest expense significantly benefited our 2005 earnings and will continue to benefit earnings over the next four years. Although this was one factor in the earnings increase in 2005, it was not the only one. Besides lowering our cost of funds Cost of Funds The interest rate paid on an outstanding loan. Notes: Money isn't free! Cost of funds is the cost of borrowing money. See also: Interest Rate Cost of funds Interest rate associated with borrowing money. , 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. It was first incorporated in 1808.

It is bordered by West Virginia and Virginia (E); Tennessee (S); the Mississippi R. , 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 Legal proceeding by which a borrower's rights to a mortgaged property may be extinguished if the borrower fails to live up to the obligations agreed to in the loan contract. 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 The amount paid for asset maintenance or the cost of doing business, excluding depreciation. Earnings are distributed after operating expenses are deducted. - 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. Although management believes the allowance for loan losses at December 31, 2005 is adequate based upon the available facts and circumstances CIRCUMSTANCES, evidence.
