At the end of the second quarter commercial and consumer loans represented 44% of our loan portfolio, versus 36% one year ago. We are encouraged to see our annualized return on average equity for the six months ended June 30, 2005 at 9.45% which is in excess of the average of all publicly traded Ohio banks."

Mr. Baylor continued, "For the six months ended June 30, 2005 our net interest margin increased to 2.95% from 2.47% compared to the six months ended June 30, 2004. The average yield on our earning assets Earning Assets

Overall, the yield on our interest earning assets has increased 30 basis points from last year's second quarter, and the cost of interest bearing liabilities has decreased 22 basis points. We continue to focus on including higher margin producing and interest rate sensitive commercial and consumer loans. And as opportunities present themselves, we are recruiting seasoned lenders in the markets we serve to further our portfolio goals."
