Non-Performing Assets (NPAs)Non-Performing Assets have increased over the last several quarters as the economy has slowed.

Loans Charged Off (net of recoveries)Net loans charged off rose to $414 thousand, up $280 thousand from the first quarter 2007 total of $134 thousand, and up $111 thousand from the fourth quarter 2007 total of $303 thousand net loans charged off.

Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses (ALLL)/Provision for Loan Losses The March 31, 2008 ALLL balance declined by $114 thousand from the December 31, 2007 balance of $5.13 million due to the charge off of several loans totaling $375 thousand that were specifically allocated for in the fourth quarter of 2007. The first quarter 2008 provision for loan losses of $300 thousand reflects Management’s analysis of the loan portfolio factoring the underlying collateral value of the loans, plans for problem loan resolution, and current economic conditions.
