Item 2.02. |
|
Results of Operations and Financial Condition. |
As discussed more thoroughly under Item 2.06 of this current report on Form 8-K, net income
information contained in the Companys January 26, 2011 press release (the Release) announcing
its unaudited results of operations and financial condition for the fiscal periods ended December
31, 2010 is no longer accurate. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, the Companys net
income was $2,564,000, as compared to the net income of $2,827,367 initially reported in the
Release. On a per share basis, the Companys diluted earnings were $0.52 for 2010; a reduction of
$0.06 per share from the amount initially reported in the Release. In addition, the Companys
total assets and total shareholder equity at December 31, 2010 were approximately $423.2 million
and $35.6 million, respectively.
The Release was filed as Exhibit 99 to the Companys Form 8-K filed with the Commission on
January 28, 2011.

Item 2.06. |
|
Material Impairments |
On Tuesday February 8, 2011, the Companys management team became aware of a probable loss related
to a commercial loan customer. The borrower was current and performing on the loan as of December
31, 2010. Upon investigation of this matter, management determined that it was clear that the
events contributing to the loss had occurred during 2010. Management concluded that a provision to
increase the Companys allowance for loan and lease losses in the amount of $400,000 is necessary
to account for the anticipated loss associated with this impaired commercial loan.
Because the facts giving rise to the impairment charge existed on December 31, 2010, the Companys
audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010 will reflect this additional
provision expense. As a result, the Companys after-tax net income and diluted earnings per share
for the year ended December 31, 2010 have been revised to $2,564,000, and $0.52, respectively, a
reduction of $280,000, or $0.06 per share from the amounts reported in the Release and the related
Form 8-K filed by the Company on January 28, 2011.
The Company does not anticipate that the impairment charge will result in any additional future
cash expenditures.
On February 11, 2011, the Company issued a press release announcing a quarterly cash dividend of
$0.14 per share of its common stock payable on March 18, 2011 to shareholders of record on March 4,
2011. A copy of the press release is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.
