Ralph J. Lober, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated “Consumers Bancorp continues to post consistent results as the economic downturn moves into its third year. This quarter’s results reflect the Bank’s ability to overcome isolated losses attributed to the ongoing real estate and bank crisis. We continue to meet the financing needs of credit worthy businesses and individuals throughout Stark, Carroll and Columbiana counties. Over the past 12 months we have grown the loan portfolio by $9.65 million and have made important investments in personnel and technology that we believe makes the Bank well-positioned to excel as the local economy begins to recover.”

Assets at December 31, 2009 totaled $254.18 million, an increase of $2.31 million from June 30, 2009. From June 30, 2009, total loans increased by $6.64 million and deposits increased $4.87 million.

Non-performing assets were $2.83 million at December 31, 2009, compared with $2.59 million at September 30, 2009 and $1.73 million at December 31, 2008.

The allowance for loan losses as a percent of total loans at December 31, 2009 was 1.30% up from 1.25% at December 31, 2008. This increase is a result of management’s concern that the current economic environment and real estate market will remain stagnant through 2010. “Our allowance reflects the probability that additional losses will be incurred until marked improvement is realized in the employment and real estate markets. Based on current information, we believe that the current funding levels are sufficient to meet potential losses,” commented Lober.
