  QUARTERLY REPORT
Dear Shareholder:
Fortunately, the increases in the Fed Funds rate have not continued through the third quarter. This is good news for your company, which has had its costs of funds increase substantially over the past two years. The interest rate curve continues to be flat or slightly inverted providing little opportunity to leverage our capital position with additions to our fixed income securities portfolio.
The operating results for the third quarter are a combination continued successes and diminishing interest rate spread and margin. Since 2005, net loans have grown 4.81% and we have reduced available-for-sale securities by nearly 18%. The loan increase is mostly responsible for the 6.25% ($2.8 million] increase in interest and dividend income. Deposits have not increased significantly and we have reduced borrowings by $54 million. Yet interest expense increased 22.3% [$4.1 million]. The result is a 4.9% [$1.3 million] reduction in the interest margin. We have been able to reduce our provision for loan losses due to the reconciliation of some larger problem credits and improved credit quality. Other income is growing and we were able to supplement operating income with some gains from our equity portfolios.
The Trust and Financial Management Group have increased assets-under-management by 22% to nearly a half a billion dollars. Increased income from that department is responsible for a significant portion of the increase in other income.
First State Bank celebrated a reopening of the expanded South Hornell office on October 4th. The branch was expanded to house a fulltime consumer lender. We believe this move will help grow both loans and deposits for First State.

  (*)   Net unrealized gains/losses on available-for-sale securities are presented as “Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income” in the annual and quarterly financial statements filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
 
  (**)   For purposes of per share calculations, the market value and number of outstanding shares have been retroactively adjusted for the effects of 1% stock dividends issued in January of each year presented.
 
  (***)   Generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) require that available-for-sale securities be reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported separately through shareholders’ equity, net of tax. Management believes there is an inherent mismatch between the income statement and balance sheet related to unrealized gains/losses that may create a material inconsistency in the calculation of earnings-based ratios. Further, the amount of unrealized gains or losses may vary widely from period-to-period, depending on the financial markets as a whole and interest rate movements. Therefore, management has provided these “non-GAAP” ratios because we believe they provide meaningful information for evaluating the Corporation’s financial position and results of operations.
