| DEAR FELLOW SHAREHOLDER |
| During this turbulent economic time, we are pleased to report CSB remains a strong, stable and secure community banking company. Net income for the first quarter totaled $896 thousand, or $0.33 per share. This reported net income is less than last year’s first quarter total of just over $1 million, or $0.41 per share. However, the prior year included a one-time gain from the sale of the Company’s credit card portfolio. Excluding that nonrecurring gain, this year’s first quarter net income increased by $68 thousand on a year-over-year comparison. In addition, the 2009 first quarter net income is the second highest the Company has reported for a first quarter in the past nine years, exceeded only by last year’s total. |
| This quarter’s results represent the first full reporting period since our acquisition of Indian Village Bancorp, Inc. We are pleased to report that the acquired group of banking centers posted a positive contribution to Company earnings during the first quarter. Systems conversions, product standardization, employee training and acclimation, and acceptance by customers and former Indian Village shareholders have all proceeded smoothly. Our primary operational focus remaining from the acquisition is improving the credit quality of the loan portfolio. The second major emphasis with remaining work involves conforming the acquired deposits, borrowings and investments to CSB’s targets for yield, mix and quality. We anticipate that these efforts will be ongoing through 2009 and at least a portion of 2010. We foresee a number of earnings headwinds for the remainder of 2009, and likely into 2010. Credit losses, which have been remarkably low for the Company’s last six fiscal years, increased to a net annualized rate of 0.30% during the first quarter and are anticipated to remain elevated for the coming year. FDIC has increased the deposit insurance premium rates charged to banks and announced a pending special assessment on the banking industry. The contracting economy is softening demand for loans and certain fee-based services. Unemployment continues to rise in our four county primary market area, having increased from approximately 6% to approximately 10% in the past year. |
| Still, CSB’s strong capital and liquidity position affords continued stability and security, and provides the foundation needed to effectively meet the financial service needs of the communities we serve. This strength also enables the Company to consider opportunities to further solidify our position within current and target markets. CSB’s management and board remain committed to safe and sound banking practices and to prudent growth as opportunities arise. We will continue to carefully assess such opportunities as part of our overall efforts to bring increasing value to our shareholders. |
| In spite of the various factors creating earnings challenges, the above-mentioned first quarter results demonstrate CSB’s core earnings momentum. Based on this performance, the board of directors declared a first quarter dividend of $0.18 per share, equaling the dividend level of the past two years. |
| Thank you for your continued support of CSB Bancorp, Inc. Sincerely, |
| EDDIE L. STEINER JOHN R. WALTMAN |
