- Cost of funds was 0.86% this quarter compared to 0.88% on a linked-quarter basis and 0.76% for the second quarter of 2015. This year's increase is due to the subordinated debt issued in May, 2015 and higher average rates on FHLB advances.
Asset quality:
- As a percentage of tier 1 capital plus the allowance for loan losses, total classified assets decreased to 29.3% as of June 30, 2016, compared to 30.4% for the prior quarter-end and 23.3% as of June 30, 2015.

- Allowance for loan losses decreased to 1.01% of loans, from 1.17% in the prior quarter and 1.09% at June 30, 2015. This decrease is a result of the above-mentioned charge-offs, which reduced the specific portion of the allowance.

Interest income increased by $437,000 while interest expense increased by $180,000.

NON-INTEREST INCOME
Non-interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2016 increased by 18.2%, or $167,000, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2015.

NON-INTEREST EXPENSE
For both the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, non-interest expense totaled $3.6 million. These results included an increase of $11,000 in bank franchise taxes, due to additional bank capital, and a $39,000 increase in FDIC assessments, due to an increased assessment base.

For both the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, non-interest expense totaled $7.3 million. These results included an increase of $55,000 in FDIC assessments, due to a higher assessment base.
BALANCE SHEET
Total assets increased by $12.0 million, or 2.6%, to $468.3 million during the first half of 2016. This is due to an increase of $3.8 million in the loan portfolio and $4.7 million of interest-bearing deposits held at other banks. On the liability side of the balance sheet, for the same time frame, deposits increased by $19.2 million, or 5.3%. Of the growth in total deposits, non-interest bearing deposits grew by $8.3 million. Increases in deposits allowed for reductions in FHLB borrowings, which decreased by $10.0 million.
ASSET QUALITY
Non-performing assets and loan charge-off levels remain comparable to peer banks. During the first half of 2016, non-performing assets, excluding troubled debt restructures (TDRs), decreased by $310,000 to $8.0 million, or 1.7% of assets. Classified assets increased by $1.6 million during the same period to $12.7 million, or 29.3% of tier 1 capital plus the allowance for loan losses. Net loan charge-offs totaled $824,000 during the six months, or 0.47% of loans, annualized, compared to 0.02% during the first half of 2015. This increase was primarily related to charging off loans to a borrower who perpetrated fraud against the Bank, and who has subsequently been sentenced to 18 months in federal prison. The fraudulent loan activity was disclosed earlier this year and the charge-offs were taken against a specific reserve that was established in the fourth quarter of 2015.
