Return on average assets and return on average equity for the second quarter of 2013 were 0.84% and 7.92%, respectively, compared with 0.78% and 7.55%, respectively, for the same period in the prior year.

Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was $5.1 million, a decrease of $1.0 million, or 16.4%, compared with $6.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012.

Core net income for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was $5.1 million compared with $5.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The prior year core net income excluded pre-tax items of $0.3 million in net gain on securities transactions and $0.8 million in casualty gains. Core earnings per share for June 30, 2013 was $1.09, compared with $1.15 for the six months ended June 30, 2012. Core return on average assets and core return on average equity for the six months ended June 30, 2013 were 0.81% and 7.65%, respectively, compared with 0.86% and 8.31%, respectively, for the same period in the prior year.

Net income of $2.7 million for the current quarter ended June 30, 2013 represents an increase of $0.3 million, or 10.1%, from net income of $2.4 million for the preceding quarter ended March 31, 2013. Earnings per share for the current quarter totaled $0.57 compared with $0.52 for the preceding quarter. Return on average assets and return on average equity for the current quarter were 0.84% and 7.92%, respectively, compared with 0.77% and 7.37%, respectively, for the preceding quarter.

Net Interest Income:

Net interest income for the second quarter of 2013 totaled $11.3 million compared with $11.4 million for the same period in the prior year, a decrease of $0.1 million, or 0.5%. Net interest margin was 3.87% for the second quarter of 2013 compared with 3.98% for the same period in the prior year. The decline in net interest income was due primarily to a 25 basis point decrease in the yield on interest-earning assets, partially offset by an increase of $23.8 million in average earning assets. The decline in net interest margin was due primarily to yields on interest-earning assets decreasing at a faster rate than the cost of interest-bearing liabilities.

Net interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2013 totaled $23.0 million compared with $23.4 million for the prior year, a decrease of $0.4 million, or 1.6%. Net interest margin was 3.97% for the six months ended June 30, 2013 compared with 4.13% for the same period in the prior year. The decline in net interest income was due primarily to a 32 basis point decrease in the yield on interest-earning assets, partially offset by an increase of $31.2 million in average earning assets. The decline in net interest margin was due primarily to yields on interest-earning assets decreasing at a faster rate than the cost of interest-bearing liabilities. The decrease in yield on interest-earning assets was attributable to lower loan yields as loans continue to reprice at current market rates.

Net interest income for the current quarter totaled $11.3 million compared with $11.7 million for the preceding quarter ended March 31, 2013, a decrease of $0.4 million, or 3.3%. Net interest margin was 3.87% for the current quarter compared with 4.07% for the preceding quarter. The decline was due primarily to additional income accretion from our purchased credit impaired ("PCI") loan portfolio recorded in the preceding quarter. Net of PCI adjustments, the net interest margin was 3.85% for the current quarter compared with 3.94% for the preceding quarter.

Non-Interest Income:

Non-interest income for the second quarter of 2013 was $4.5 million compared with $4.0 million for the preceding quarter ended March 31, 2013 and $4.1 million for the same second quarter in the prior year. The increases from the preceding and year-ago quarters were due primarily to increases in Wealth Management fee income, service charges on deposit accounts and net gain on sales of loans held for sale.

Non-interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was $8.5 million compared with $9.0 million for the prior year, a decrease of $0.5 million, or 5.6%. The decline was due primarily to reductions of $0.8 million in casualty gains from insurance reimbursements and $0.3 million in net gain on securities transactions. These items were partially offset by increases in Wealth Management Group fee income, service charges on deposit accounts and net gain on sales of loans held for sale.

Non-Interest Expense:

Non-interest expense for the second quarter of 2013 was $11.4 million compared with $11.9 million for the prior year, a decrease of $0.5 million, or 4.1%. The decrease was due primarily to decreases of $0.2 million in professional services and $0.2 million in marketing and advertising expense.

Non-interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was $23.1 million compared with $22.8 million for the prior year, an increase of $0.3 million, or 1.3%. The increase was due primarily to increases of $0.4 million in salaries and wages and $0.1 million in net occupancy expense. These items were partially offset by decreases of $0.2 million in marketing and advertising expense and $0.1 million in amortization of intangible assets. The increase in salaries and wages was due primarily to compensation related to merit increases and incentive compensation.

Non-interest expense for the current quarter was $11.4 million compared with $11.7 million for the preceding quarter ended March 31, 2013, a decrease of $0.3 million, or 2.8%. The decrease was due primarily to decreases of $0.2 million in salaries and wages and $0.1 million in professional services.

Asset Quality:

Non-performing loans totaled $7.5 million at June 30, 2013, or 0.80% of total loans, up from $6.0 million, or 0.68%, at December 31, 2012. Non-performing assets, which are comprised of non-performing loans and other real estate owned, totaled $8.1 million at June 30, 2013, or 0.64% of total assets, up from $6.6 million, or 0.53%, at December 31, 2012.

Management performs an ongoing assessment of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses based upon a number of factors including an analysis of historical loss factors, collateral evaluations, recent charge-off experience, credit quality of the loan portfolio, current economic conditions and loan growth. Based on this analysis, the provision for loan losses for the second quarter of 2013 was $0.5 million compared with $0.4 million for the preceding quarter ended March 31, 2013, and $0.1 million for the same period in the prior year. Net recoveries for the current quarter were less than $0.1 million compared with net charge-offs of less than $0.1 million for the preceding quarter and net recoveries of less than $0.1 million for the same period in the prior year.

The provision for loan losses for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was $0.9 million compared with $0.5 million for the same period in the prior year. Net recoveries for the six months ended June 30, 2013 were less than $0.1 million compared with net recoveries of less than $0.1 million for the prior year.

At June 30, 2013 the allowance for loan losses was $11.3 million, compared with $10.4 million at December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2012. The allowance for loan losses was 151.58% of non-performing loans at June 30, 2013, compared with 172.96% at December 31, 2012 and 119.00% at June 30, 2012. The ratio of the allowance for loan losses to total loans was 1.21% at June 30, 2013, compared with 1.17% at December 31, 2012 and 1.21% at June 30, 2012.

Balance Sheet Activity:

Assets totaled $1.257 billion at June 30, 2013 compared with $1.248 billion at December 31, 2012, an increase of $9.0 million, or 0.7%. The growth was due primarily to an increase of $40.5 million, or 4.5%, in total portfolio loans, partially offset by decreases of $15.5 million in cash and cash equivalents and $13.6 million in investment securities. The increase in portfolio loans was due to strong growth of $24.0 million in commercial loans and $19.0 million in consumer loans.

Deposits totaled $1.055 billion at June 30, 2013 compared with $1.045 million at December 31, 2012, an increase of $10.2 million, or 1.0%. The growth was primarily due to increases of $17.9 million in money market accounts and $8.8 million in savings deposits. These items were partially offset by decreases of $11.7 million in time deposits and $3.1 million in non-interest-bearing demand deposits. At June 30, 2013, demand deposit and money market accounts comprised 61.4% of total deposits compared with 60.7% at December 31, 2012 and 58.7% at June 30, 2012.

Total equity was $132.7 million at June 30, 2013 compared with $131.1 million at December 31, 2012. The total equity to total assets ratio was 10.55% at June 30, 2013 compared with 10.50% at December 31, 2012. The tangible equity to tangible assets ratio was 8.63% at June 30, 2013 compared with 8.53% at December 31, 2012. As of June 30, 2013, both the Corporation's and the Bank's capital ratios were in excess of those required to be considered well-capitalized under regulatory capital standards.

Other Item:

The market value of total assets under management or administration in our Wealth Management Group was $1.782 billion at June 30, 2013 compared with $1.735 billion at December 31, 2012 and $1.669 billion at June 30, 2012.

GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliations (Unaudited)

The table below shows computations of tangible equity and tangible assets and certain related ratios, all of which are considered to be non-GAAP financial measures. The tangible equity to tangible assets ratio has become a focus of some investors and management believes this ratio may assist in analyzing the Corporation's capital position, absent the effects of intangible assets. These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of results reported under GAAP. Because not all companies use identical calculations, the non-GAAP measures presented in the following table may not be comparable to those reported by other companies.
