The yield on interest earning assets increased 21 basis points to 4.58%, while the cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased 34 basis points to 1.14%.

·

Balance Sheet and Other Information:

·
At June 30, 2019, total assets were $1.45 billion, compared to $1.43 billion at December 31, 2018 and $1.40 billion at June 30, 2018.

·
Available for sale securities of $236.7 million at June 30, 2019 decreased $4.3 million from December 31, 2018 and $13.3 million from June 30, 2018. The resulting funds were utilized to fund growth in the loan portfolio.

·
Net loans as of June 30, 2019 totaled $1.09 billion and increased $17.3 million from December 31, 2018 and $58.1 million from June 30, 2018. Net loan growth for the second quarter was $8.5 million. Net loan growth for 2019 has been negatively impacted by transfers to other real estate owned as the result of a settlement with a customer in bankruptcy and several large loan payoffs. The growth in 2019 was in commercial and agricultural relationships, which continues the trend from 2018.

·
The allowance for loan losses totaled $13,304,000 at June 30, 2019 which is an increase of $420,000 from December 31, 2018.  The increase is due to recording a provision for loan losses of $750,000 and recoveries of $23,000, offset by charge-offs of $353,000.  Annualized net charge-offs as a percent of total loans through June 30, 2019 was .06%.  The allowance as a percent of total loans was 1.21% as of June 30, 2019 compared to 1.19% as of December 31, 2018.

·
Deposits decreased $1.5 million from December 31, 2018, to $1.18 billion at June 30, 2019, primarily due to timing differences and a municipal customer withdrawing funds to start a large construction project. Borrowed funds increased $9.8 million from December 31, 2018 to $101.0 million at June 30, 2019. Non-interest-bearing deposits increased $3.9 million at June 30, 2019.

·
Stockholders’ equity totaled $148.0 million at June 30, 2019, compared to $139.2 million at December 31, 2018, an increase of $8,792,000.  The increase was attributable to net income for the six months ended June 30, 2019 totaling $9.3 million, offset by cash dividends of $3.1 million.  As a result of changes in interest rates impacting the fair value of investment securities, the unrealized gain on available for sale investment securities, net of tax, increased $3.5 million from December 31, 2018.


Dividend Declared

On June 4, 2019, the Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.445 per share, which was paid on June 28, 2019 to shareholders of record at the close of business on June 14, 2019. The quarterly cash dividend is an increase of 3.3% over the quarterly cash dividend of $0.431 per share declared one year ago, as adjusted for the 1% stock dividend declared in June 2018.
