• Successful rights offering

MOUNT CLEMENS, Mich., April 27, 2005 -- Community Central Bank Corporation (NNM:CCBD), the holding company for Community Central Bank, posted increased earnings for the quarter ended March 31, 2005, David A. Widlak, President and Chief Executive Officer of Community Central Bank Corporation, reported today.

Net income for the first quarter of 2005 increased 37% to $752,000, or $0.24 per diluted share, from $548,000, or $0.19 per diluted share for the first quarter ended 2004.

"We are pleased with our overall performance during the first quarter. Our strategy has continued to yield earnings growth. Some of our recent initiatives, such as the announced merger with River Place Financial Corporation and our successful rights offering, will allow us to diversify our business lines while continuing to grow assets. Upon regulatory approval of the River Place merger, we plan to offer to our new and existing customers trust and wealth management services to complement our relationship-focused product line. By providing our customers with a full range of business and retail services, we will enhance our ability to compete with much larger institutions and to grow our market share," stated Mr. Widlak.

Assets at March 31, 2005 totaled $411.6 million, increasing $20.1 million during the first quarter of 2005. Total loans increased $4.6 million, which was primarily comprised of commercial and commercial real estate loans. Total deposits increased $14.8 million for the first quarter of 2005. Total nonperforming loans represented 0.16% of total loans at March 31, 2005, compared to 0.25% at December 31, 2004. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of nonperforming loans was 692.7% at March 31, 2005. Our Tier 1 capital leverage ratio stood at 10.18% at March 31, 2005, up from 8.47% at December 31, 2004. The increase in capital was primarily due to the completion of the rights offering in February 2005.

Net interest income increased $340,000, or 12.3% for the first quarter of 2005 compared to the first quarter of 2004. The increase in net interest income was attributable to growth in earning assets, coupled with an increase in net interest margin. Net interest margin increased to 3.34% from 3.19% for the first quarter of 2005 compared to the same period in 2004.

Noninterest income decreased during the first quarter 2005 compared to the same 2004 quarter. This decrease was largely offset by a decrease in noninterest expense. The decrease in noninterest income was primarily the result of a decrease in gains on the sale of mortgage loans, which was attributable to lower volumes of residential mortgage loan sales as compared to the same period the prior year. The offsetting decrease in noninterest expense was largely attributable to a reduction in costs associated with residential mortgage loan origination activity, with the largest area representing commission expense.

The Corporation recently announced a 5% stock dividend, payable June 1, 2005, to shareholders of record May 2, 2005.
