Dennis J. Flanagan, President and CEO, attributed the increase in net income to higher net interest income resulting from continued growth of the loan portfolio and a decline in non-performing assets.

Non-performing assets at June 30, 2012 amounted to $1 Million and represented only .44% of total assets, well below peer levels.
