CNB Bancorp, Inc. (CNBV), the holding company for Citizens National Bank, today announced its financial results for the six months ended June 30, 2008.

As in 2006 and 2007, the Company continued sustained operating profit during 2008. Second quarter 2008 was the highest earning quarter in the history of the Company with net income of $66,000, compared to net income of $15,000 for the same period in 2007. Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2008 was $78,000, up $34,000 or 77.3% from the same period in 2007. Diluted earnings per share for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 were $0.05 and $0.03, respectively.

At June 30, 2008, total assets were $44.3 million, an increase of 3.2% over year-end 2007. Asset growth during 2008 was driven by a $2.4 million or 7.3% increase in the Company’s loan portfolio; total loans at June 30, 2008 were $34.9 million. Deposits increased 2.3% during the first six months of 2008 to $36.0 million. Oliver D. Creekmore, CEO, states that the bank continues to focus on maintaining its quality assets which has resulted in steady and profitable growth during this challenging economic environment.

Profitability ratios for the second quarter and six months ended continued to trend positively, despite economic tightening. Return on average assets was 0.61% for the second quarter of 2008 and 0.36% for the six months ended. Return on average shareholders’ equity was 3.41% and 2.03% for the second quarter ended and six months ended June 30, 2008, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2007 return on average assets was 0.20% and return on average shareholders’ equity was 1.18%.

Compared to the same periods in 2007, net interest income after provision for loan losses increased 4.7% for the six months to $850,000 and 7.3% for the second quarter to $444,000. Net interest margin increased from 4.02% for the six months ended June 30, 2007 to 4.30% for 2008. Although net interest margins throughout the industry are compressing due to the increased cost of funding loan growth, the Company is continuing to experience an expanding margin primarily through asset/liability management.
