The Company had one non-accrual loan at March 31, 2006 totaling $591,000, compared to three loans totaling $1,308,000 at March 31, 2005, and had no real estate owned Real Estate Owned

 area. The addition of $400,000 to the allowance for credit losses was to restore the allowance for the charge-off and to accommodate loan growth over the past year.

Average deposits for the first quarter of 2006 were $417,555,000 compared to $395,840,000 for the same period of 2005, a 5% increase.

 increased $26,134,000, from $402,252,000 for the first quarter of 2005 to $428,386,000 for the first quarter of 2006. Non-interest income increased 14.6% in the periods under review mostly due to a gain on sale of investments as the Company repositioned its short term municipal portfolio and realized a gain of $125,000. Non-interest expense increased 6.6% mainly due to salary expenses from an increase in the number of employees and ordinary increases in salaries and benefits.

The influence of the Company's agricultural portfolio, particularly for raisins and nuts, is reflected in the differences in loan and deposit volumes from December December: see month.  31, 2005 to March 31, 2006. Generally, agricultural processors sell the crops harvested in the fourth quarter of each year and hold the funds to be disbursed to the farmers until the first quarter of the following year, creating a temporary increase in deposits. In the first quarter of each year, the farmers then pay down their agricultural loans with their crop proceeds. This trend is reflected in the first quarter loan and deposit numbers. Total assets decreased 2.0% during the first three months of 2006 from $483,677,000 as of December 31, 2005, to $474,151,000 as of March 31, 2006. Total gross loans decreased 2.7% to $293,618,000 as of March 31, 2006, compared to $301,802,000 as of December 31, 2005. Total deposits decreased 2.5% to $420,101,000 as of March 31, 2006, compared to $430,989,000 as of December 31, 2005. The agricultural borrowings are expected to increase as the farmers begin their new crop year. The loan to deposit ratio at March 31, 2006 was 69.9% compared to 70.0% at December 31, 2005.
