  QUARTERLY REPORT
Dear Shareholder:
The big news for this quarter was the announcement of the signing of a definitive merger agreement with Citizens Bancorp of Coudersport. The combination of the two banks is an exciting prospect for both organizations. The extension of C&N’s footprint to the west is a natural and appropriate next step. We believe that the addition of Charles Updegraff and his strong and experienced management group to C&N’s team will result in increased opportunities for the combined organization. We expect this transaction to close in the second quarter of 2007.
The historically long (over 2 years) flat and inverted yield curve continues to challenge our ability to achieve earnings growth. Although we have successfully grown our loan portfolio (helped significantly by our entry into the Lycoming County market) by 5.3% since the end of 2005, we have shrunk the investment portfolio by nearly 17%. The result is a 3% reduction in total assets. Interest and dividend income has increased by 5.5%, but interest expense has grown by 19.9%. The net result is a reduction of 4.89% in our main net revenue source. Until the investment yield curve returns to a normal positive slope, we will continue to emphasize growth in loans to increase revenues.
Our Trust and Financial Management Group has grown Assets Under Management by over 23.8% since the end of 2005, and increased their revenue by 15.3%. We are focused on this area of non-interest revenue in an effort to reduce our reliance on the net interest margin. We believe the prospects for growth in this area are encouraging.
Thank you for your continued support.
