SUSSEX BANCORP ANNOUNCES 11.8% GROWTH IN YEAR TO DATE 2010 EARNINGS

---

FRANKLIN, NEW JERSEY – July 27, 2010– Sussex Bancorp (“Company”) (NASDAQ: “SBBX”) today announced its financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010.  For the six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company’s net income increased $100 thousand, or 11.8%, to $948 thousand from the $848 thousand earned for the same period last year driven by a 16.4% increase in net interest income. Diluted earnings per share were $0.29 for the six months ended June 30, 2010 compared to $0.26 for the same period in 2009. For the quarter ended June 30, 2010, the Company earned net income of $305 thousand, a decrease of $290 thousand from net income of $595 thousand for the second quarter of 2009.  Basic and diluted earnings per share were $0.09 in the second quarter of 2010 compared to $0.18 for the second quarter of 2009.

The decline for the second quarter of 2010 was largely attributed to severance costs that resulted in higher salary and employee benefits expense and an other-than-temporary impairment ("OTTI") charge both during the second quarter of 2010.  The severance and OTTI charges of $217 thousand and $171 thousand, respectively, or combined amounted to an equivalent earnings per share decrease of $0.07.  For the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 the provision for loan losses increased by $541 thousand and $639 thousand, respectively, over the same periods last year, which was largely offset by a decline in write-downs on foreclosed real estate expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 of $456 thousand and $429 thousand, respectively, over the same periods last year. At June 30, 2010, non-performing assets to total assets remained flat on a linked quarter basis.

“We continue to focus on proactively managing and resolving the Company’s troubled assets as well as taking steps to strengthen the Company’s operating results by executing our community bank strategy of delivering an extraordinary experience for our customers while assisting with their financial needs” stated Mr. Anthony Labozzetta, Sussex's President and Chief Executive Officer.

The Company’s net interest income increased $260 thousand, or 7.0%, to $4.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 from $3.7 million for the second quarter of 2009. The improvement in net interest income was driven by a 24 basis point increase in the Company’s net interest margin to 3.69% for the quarter ended June 30, 2010, which was largely due to a 64 basis point decrease in the average rate paid on interest bearing liabilities.  For the six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company’s net interest income increased $1.1 million, or 16.4%, to $7.9 million from the $6.8 million earned for the same period last year.  The improvement in net interest income was driven by a 51 basis point increase in the Company’s net interest margin to 3.76% for the six months ended June 30, 2010, which was largely due to an 89 basis point decrease in the average rate paid on interest bearing liabilities. The improvement in the average rate paid on interest bearing liabilities is a product of management’s effort to reduce funding costs.

The Company reported non-interest income of $1.1 million and $2.3 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2010, respectively, compared to non-interest income of $1.5 million and $2.8 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2009.  Adjusting for non-recurring gains on the sale of fixed assets of $203 thousand in the second quarter of 2009, non-interest income decreased by $107 thousand and declined by $263 thousand for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2009.  During the three months ended June 30, 2010, the Company recognized a $171 thousand pre-tax ($113 thousand after-tax, or $0.03 per share) non-cash OTTI charge related to an equity portfolio fund that had an amortized cost of $250 thousand.  The fund is comprised of common stocks of bank holding companies. The impairment was recognized because the market value of this security was below the Company’s amortized cost for an extended period of time along with credit deterioration in some of the underlying banks and we do not believe the market value of this security will recover to the Company’s amortized cost within the foreseeable future. In addition, the decrease in non-interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2010 is attributable to lower insurance commissions and lower service charges on deposit accounts.

The Company’s non-interest expenses decreased by $164 thousand, or 4.1%, to $3.8 million and decreased by $176 thousand, or 2.3%, to $7.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 2009.  The decline in non-interest expenses was largely due to a decrease in foreclosed real estate expenses and FDIC insurance premiums, reflecting the expense incurred in the second quarter of 2009 of $215 thousand related to a special assessment by the FDIC to recapitalize the Deposit Insurance Fund.  These improvements were partly offset by severance costs of $217 thousand incurred during the second quarter of 2010, which resulted in higher salary and employee benefits expense.

At June 30, 2010, non-performing assets, which include non-accrual loans and foreclosed real estate, increased on a linked quarter basis by $702 thousand to $27.1 million, or 5.59% of total assets, at June 30, 2010.  The ratio of non-performing assets to total assets for March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009 were 5.59% and 4.61%, respectively. The allowance for loan losses was $5.4 million, or 1.65% of total loans, at June 30, 2010 as compared to $5.5 million, or 1.65% of total loans, at December 31, 2009.  “Although the occupancy levels in our market have improved in the commercial real estate sector leading to several credit upgrades in our portfolio, we had some deterioration in the residential construction portfolio resulting in non-performing assets to total assets remaining at the same level for the current quarter” commented Mr. Labozzetta.

At June 30, 2010 the Company’s total assets were $484.6 million, an increase of $29.8 million, or 6.6%, compared to total assets of $454.8 million at December 31, 2009.  The Company’s total deposits increased $28.0 million, or 7.5%, to $400.1 million at June 30, 2010 from $372.1 million at December 31, 2009.  The growth in deposits was primarily in core deposits, (non-interest demand, NOW, savings and money market accounts), which increased $27.6 million, or 10.2%, at June 30, 2010 as compared to December 31, 2009.  The Company’s gross loans, net of unearned income decreased $2.8 million to $330.2 million at June 30, 2010 from $333.0 million at December 31, 2009, as cash and cash equivalents increased $21.9 million, or 95.1%, to $45.0 million at June 30, 2010.  Bank-owned life insurance increased to $10.0 million at June 30, 2010, as the Company purchased an additional $6.5 million during the second quarter of 2010.  At June 30, 2010 the Company’s total stockholders’ equity was $35.9 million, an increase of $1.4 million, or 4.0%, as compared to December 31, 2009 and has increased $3.1 million, or 9.6% since June 30, 2009.  At June 30, 2010, the leverage capital, tier 1 capital to risk weighted assets and total capital to risk weighted assets ratios of Sussex Bank, the Company’s bank subsidiary, were 8.84%, 11.94% and 13.19%, respectively, all in excess of the 5%, 6% and 10% ratios required to be deemed “well capitalized” under regulatory requirements.
