Minerva, Ohio—October 24, 2005 (OTCBB: CBKM) Consumers Bancorp, Inc. (Consumers) today reported first fiscal quarter earnings per share of $0.18 compared to $0.13 for the previous quarter ended June 30, 2005 and compared to $0.31 for the same period ended September 30, 2004.

Net income for the first quarter of 2005 compared to the first quarter of 2004 was impacted by higher salary expense as vacant senior management positions have been filled and by a decline in the net interest margin from 5.30% in the first quarter of 2004 to 4.73% in the first quarter of 2005. Return on average assets (ROA) and return on average equity (ROE) for the first quarter of 2005 were 0.76% and 7.74%, respectively. This compares to ROA of 1.42% and ROE of 14.42% for the first quarter of 2004.

Steven L. Muckley, stated “As we have invested in new technology for processing and new ATM’s, we have positioned the Bank with the infrastructure to take advantage of the opportunities in the markets we serve. We are especially excited about the opening of our 10^th branch in Malvern, Ohio that is scheduled for sometime in December 2005.”

Interest income for the first quarter of 2005 increased $69 thousand and interest expense increased $251 thousand over 2004 first quarter results. The net interest margin decreased to 4.73% for the quarter ended September 30, 2005 compared with 5.00% from the previous quarter ended June 30, 2005 and compared with 5.30% from the same period last year. The decline in the net interest margin and net interest income was primarily due to the Corporation’s yield on average interest-earning assets declining to 6.04% for the three months ended September 30, 2005 from 6.09% for the comparable year ago period combined with an increase in cost of funds from 1.06% for the three months ended September 30, 2004 to 1.72% for the same period in 2005.

Non-interest expense increased $238 thousand, or 12.4%, for the first quarter of 2005 from the same period last year. Non-interest expenses increased mainly due to an increase in salary and benefit expenses of $163 thousand from the first quarter of 2004 to the first quarter of 2005 as a result of vacant senior management positions being filled.

Assets at September 30, 2005 totaled $198.2 million, an increase of $7.0 million from June 30, 2005 and an increase of $7.9 million from September 30, 2004. Available-for-sale securities increased by $8.6 million from June 30, 2005 and by $3.6 million from September 30, 2004.
