President and Chief Executive Officer Jeffrey T. Benton Benton, city (1990 pop. 18,177), seat of Saline co., central Ark.; founded 1836. Once a significant aluminum producer, the city manufactures fabricated-metal and wood products. commented, "We are pleased to report increased earnings per share in a challenging environment, due to increased competition and rising interest rates. While our net interest margin has experienced significant pressure due to these forces, our noninterest income has increased and credit quality remains good. Our efficiency also continues to be among the best in Ohio." "The Bank continues to grow and our recent technology initiatives are doing well. We successfully introduced Smart Deposit Solutions, our new remote check capture product for commercial customers, and our new Smart ATM, with deposit image transfer capabilities. We are currently in the planning stages for several new branch locations to continue to take advantage of growth in our market area" Net Income Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2006 totaled $1.89 million, compared to net income of $1.88 million for the same period in 2005. Earnings per share was $.50 for the three months ended June 30, 2006 compared to $.48 for the three months ended June 30, 2005. The increase in earnings is mainly attributed to the increase in net interest income due to the growth in earning assets Earning Assets Any income-earning asset owned by a company. Notes: These assets are generally interest-bearing accounts, bonds, and securities available for sale. See also: Asset, Asset Valuation, Earnings, Net Interest Margin , and an increase in noninterest income associated with core product offerings. Net Interest Income Net interest income was $5.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006, compared to $5.7 million for the same period in 2005. The $155 thousand increase in the second quarter 2006 compared to 2005 was mainly attributed to an increase in loan balances, as average earning assets increased by $47 million from the second quarter 2005. The second quarter's net interest margin decreased to 3.57% on a fully tax equivalent basis, from 3.74% during the second quarter 2005. The decline is primarily attributed to funding continued loan growth through higher cost borrowings and deposits associated with the current interest rate environment. The Bank has seen deposit growth primarily in products such as time deposits and money market accounts, which generally carry higher costs compared to checking and savings products. Funding costs may further negatively impact the net interest margin in future periods if the current competitive and rising rate environments remain in effect. Noninterest Income Total noninterest income increased $76, or 5.4%, for the three months ended June 30, 2006, compared to the same period in 2005. The change in non-interest revenues from period to period is mainly attributed to an increase in service charges on deposit accounts coupled with an increase in treasury management fees. With The Bank's continued efforts to provide competitive products with real personal service, new products in the treasury management and wealth management divisions have been added. Noninterest Expense Total noninterest expense increased $312, or 8.0%, for the three months ended June 30, 2006, compared to the same period in 2005. The increase was primarily due to increases in salary and employee benefits expenses, professional expenses incurred, and franchise tax expenses incurred, offset with a decline in occupancy Gaining or having physical possession of real property subject to, or in the absence of, legal right or title. In a fire insurance policy, for example, the term occupancy , advertising and other administrative expenses. The increase in salary and benefits expense is mainly associated with the addition of revenue generating staff in lending and wealth management, in addition to compliance and credit personnel utilized to continue to improve the infrastructure supporting the Company's growth. Additionally, the Company has experienced an increase in consulting, auditing, and legal fees due to the expansion in the complexity of its operations. The Company's quarterly efficiency ratio fell slightly to 57.5% in the second quarter 2006 from 55.0% for the same period in 2005. Analysis of Selected Financial Condition The Corporation's assets totaled $704,481 at June 30, 2006, compared to $690,896 at December December: see month. 31, 2005, an increase of $13,585, or 2.0%. Since June 30, 2005 assets have increased $40,273 or 6.1% from $664,208. The increase in assets was mainly attributed to loan growth the Corporation experienced within its normal markets, particularly in commercial and residential real estate. The funding that accommodated this loan growth was supplied through increased borrowings, mainly Federal Home Loan Bank advances, and money market and wholesale deposits. Cash and cash equivalents increased $4,366, mainly due to Federal funds Federal Funds Funds deposited to regional Federal Reserve Banks by commercial banks, including funds in excess of reserve requirements. Notes: These non-interest bearing deposits are lent out at the Fed funds rate to other banks unable to meet overnight reserve sold, from December 31, 2005 to June 30, 2006.

Total deposits increased $45,114, or 9.0%, from $503,906 at December 31, 2005 to $549,020 at June 30, 2006.
