Exhibit 99.2
United Bancshares, Inc.
Quarterly Report
March 31, 2005
Dear Shareholders, Customers, Employees and Friends:
The management of United is pleased with the results of the first quarter 2005. It is our goal to continue to improve the profitability of the institution throughout this year. We will be working to increase our net interest income and improve the efficiency of the organization. In addition, we are working toward the continued growth of our loan portfolio.
Due to the increasing interest rate environment and other economic factors, gains on sale of securities and fixed rate mortgages were down significantly from the same quarter of 2004. Notwithstanding that earnings challenge, United’s net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 was $1,083,000 or $0.29 per share, an increase of 28.2% over the first quarter of 2004. United was able to improve profitability primarily through cost containment, with a slight increase of $89,000 in non-interest expenses, and increased net interest income of $791,000. The improvement in net interest income was primarily the result of before tax increases in loan interest income and investment securities interest income of $391,000 and $663,000, respectively, offset by an interest expense increase of $280,000. This improvement was principally through growth in earning assets and management’s monitoring of loan and deposit interest rates.
I wish to take this opportunity to thank our shareholders, customers, and employees for their continued support of our organization. We will continue to work diligently to position ourselves for the future and increase shareholder value for all concerned.
Sincerely,
/s/ Daniel W. Schutt
