Exhibit 99.1

Consumers Bancorp, Inc. Reports Second

Quarter and Six Month Fiscal 2005 Results

Minerva, Ohio—January 27, 2006 (OTCBB: CBKM) Consumers Bancorp, Inc. (Consumers) today reported earnings of $0.15 per share for the second fiscal quarter of 2005. The second quarter of 2005 results compare to $0.18 for the previous quarter ended September 30, 2005 and $0.26 for the same period ended December 31, 2004. Net income for the second quarter of 2005 was $316 thousand, a decrease of $62 thousand from the previous quarter ended September 30, 2005 and a $245 thousand decrease from the same quarter in 2004. Net income for the second quarter of 2005 compared to the second quarter of 2004 was impacted by an increase in provision for loan losses and by a decline in the net interest margin. Return on average assets (ROA) and return on average equity (ROE) for the second quarter of 2005 were 0.62% and 6.52%, respectively. This compares to ROA of 1.17% and ROE of 11.63% for the second quarter of 2004.

For the six months ended December 31, 2005, net income was $694 thousand compared to $1.2 million for the same period last year. Fiscal year-to-date net income per share was $0.32 compared to $0.58 for the same period in 2004. ROA and ROE for the six months ended December 31, 2005 were 0.69% and 7.13%, respectively, compared to 1.30% and 13.00%, respectively, for the prior year.

Steven L. Muckley, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated “Our financial results for the 2005 fiscal year reflect the continued investment back into the infrastructure of the Bank as senior manager positions have been filled and new technology is being employed to position Consumers for long term profitability. Also, during the last twelve months there has been a significant rise in the prime rate which has resulted in a higher cost of funds. We expect to see improvement in the net interest margin when the prime rate stabilizes and variable rate loans reprice to higher rates in the near future. We are also pleased to report the grand opening of our 10^th branch located in Malvern, Ohio occurred on January 9, 2006. This continued branch expansion underscores our commitment to our local communities.”

Interest income for the second quarter of 2005 increased $282 thousand and interest expense increased $377 thousand over 2004 second quarter results. The net interest margin decreased to 4.63% for the quarter ended December 31, 2005 compared with 4.73% from the previous quarter ended September 30, 2005 and compared with 5.12% from the same period last year. The decline in the net interest margin and net interest income was primarily due to an increase in Consumers’ cost of funds.

Non-interest expense increased $95 thousand, or 4.8%, for the second quarter of 2005 from the same period last year. The primary reason for this increase in non-interest expenses were fees associated with moving to an imaged environment in the proof department. As a result of the imaged environment, Consumers is now able to electronically capture images at its branch locations eliminating the need to courier work from each branch to a central location. Long term objectives of moving to an imaged environment include: improving the ability to identify potential fraud by isolating checks that are inconsistent with historical account activity, intraday clearing allowing for quicker access to funds, and recognizing operational savings related to equipment maintenance and repair, and reduced courier and employee costs.

Assets at December 31, 2005 totaled $205.1 million, an increase of $13.9 million from June 30, 2005 and an increase of $14.6 million from December 31, 2004. Available-for-sale securities increased by $12.8 million from June 30, 2005 and by $10.2 million from December 31, 2004. During the 2005 fiscal year-to-date period, $10.0 million of municipal securities were purchased. During the six month period ended December 31, 2005, total loans remained relatively stable and deposits decreased $3.9 million. During the twelve month period ended December 31, 2005, total loans increased by $1.6 million and deposits remained relatively stable.

The provision for loan losses was $182 thousand for the second quarter of 2005 compared with $7 thousand for the second quarter of 2004. The increased provision expense for the second quarter of 2005 was mainly due to an increase in the specific allocation related to a credit within non-performing assets due to a deterioration in the value of collateral.

Non-performing assets were $2.7 million at December 31, 2005, compared with $2.5 million at June 30, 2005 and $2.2 million at December 31, 2004. Net charge-offs on an annualized basis, as a percent of loans outstanding were 0.24% and 0.46% for the six months ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

The Board of Directors of Consumers Bancorp, Inc., declared a $0.09 per share cash dividend for shareholders of record on November 21, 2005 that was paid on December 14, 2005.
