Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

September 30, 2011

(Unaudited)

NOTE 1 – CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The consolidated financial statements of Croghan Bancshares, Inc. (“Croghan” or the “Corporation”) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, The Croghan Colonial Bank (the “Bank”), have been prepared without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (including normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the Corporation’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, and changes in cash flows have been made.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) have been omitted. The Corporation’s Annual Report to shareholders for the year ended December 31, 2010 (the “2010 Annual Report), contains consolidated financial statements and related footnote disclosures which should be read in conjunction with the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The results of operations for the period ended September 30, 2011, are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.

Management evaluated subsequent events through October 28, 2011, the date the financial statements were issued. Events or transactions occurring after September 30, 2011, but prior to when the consolidated financial statements were issued, that provided additional evidence about conditions that existed at September 30, 2011, have been recognized in the consolidated financial statements for the period ended September 30, 2011. Events or transactions that provided evidence about conditions that arose before the financial statements were issued, but did not exist at September 30, 2011, have not been recognized in the financial statements for the period ended September 30, 2011.

NOTE 2 – NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In April 2011, The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU 2011-02,A Creditors Determination of whether a Restructuring Is a Troubled Debt Restructuring.The new guidance clarifies when a loan modification or restructuring is considered a troubled debt restructuring (TDR) in order to address current diversity in practice and lead to more consistent application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In evaluating whether a restructuring constitutes a TDR, a creditor must separately conclude that the restructuring constitutes a concession and the debtor is experiencing financial difficulties. Additionally, the guidance clarifies that a creditor is precluded from using the effective interest rate test in the debtor’s guidance on restructuring of payables (paragraph 470-60-55-10) when evaluating whether a restructuring constitutes a TDR. Management has determined there has been no significant change in the amount of its loan modifications or restructurings classified as TDR as a result of clarification provided in ASU 2011-02

8

ASU 2011-01,Deferral of the Effective Date of Disclosures about TDR in Update No. 2010-20, deferred additional disclosures regarding TDR required by ASU 2010-20 until ASU 2011-02 was issued. For interim and annual periods beginning after June 15, 2011, entities are required to enhance existing disclosures about the allowance for credit losses and the credit quality of financing receivables to include, at minimum, the nature and extent of a creditor’s TDR and financing receivables modified as TDR retrospectively to the beginning of the annual period of adoption.

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04,Fair Value Measurement, amending ASC topic 820 which eliminates terminology difference between U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) on the measurement of fair value and the related fair value disclosures. While largely consistent with existing fair value measurement principles and disclosures, the changes were made as part of the continuing efforts to converge GAAP and IFRS. The adoption of this guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011, and is not expected to have a significant impact on the Corporation’s financial statements.

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05Comprehensive Income, amending ASC topic 220 to require that all non-owner changes in stockholders’ equity be presented in either a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. Additionally, the guidance requires entities to present, on the face of the financial statements, reclassification adjustments for items that are reclassified from other comprehensive income to net income in the statement or statements where the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income are presented. The option to present components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity was eliminated. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011, and is not expected to have a significant impact on the Corporation’s financial statements.

In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-08,Intangibles – Goodwill and Other, amending topic 350 to provide the option of a qualitative approach to test goodwill for impairment. The amendment allows an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test described in ASC topic 350. The entity is not required to calculate the fair value of a reporting unit unless the entity determines that it is more likely than not that its fair value is less than its carrying amount. The amendment is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is permitted for annual or interim periods that have not yet been issued. The Corporation has not yet determined whether to early adopt the amendment and it is not expected to have a significant impact on the Corporation’s financial statements.

NOTE 3 – FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The carrying amounts and estimated fair values of recognized financial instruments were as follows:

		September 30, 2011				December 31, 2010
		Carrying amount		Estimated fair value		Carrying amount		Estimated fair value
		(Dollars in thousands)
FINANCIAL ASSETS
Cash and cash equivalents		$	17,625	$	17,625	$	21,856	$	21,856
Securities	��		176,219		176,219		144,623		144,628
Loans, net			272,362		274,129		288,350		290,603
Total		$	466,206	$	467,973	$	454,829	$	457,087
FINANCIAL LIABILITIES
Deposits		$	400,918	$	402,646	$	384,157	$	386,087
Federal funds purchased and securities sold under repurchase agreements			22,280		22,280		20,989		20,989
Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings			12,500		13,471		25,500		26,359
Total		$	435,698	$	438,397	$	430,646	$	433,435

The preceding summary does not include accrued interest receivable, cash surrender value of life insurance, dividends payable, and other liabilities which are also considered financial instruments. The estimated fair value of such items is considered to be their carrying amount.

The Bank also has unrecognized financial instruments which relate to commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. The contract amount of such financial instruments was $76,359,000 at September 30, 2011 and $73,324,000 at December 31, 2010. Since many of these commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, this total does not necessarily represent future cash requirements.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate fair value of each class of financial instruments:

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Fair value is determined to be the carrying amount for these items because they represent cash or cash equivalents that mature in 90 days or less and do not represent unanticipated credit concerns.

Securities

The fair value of securities (both available-for-sale and held-to-maturity) is determined based on quoted market prices of the individual securities or, if not available, estimated fair value was obtained by comparison to other known securities with similar risk and maturity characteristics. Such value does not consider possible tax ramifications or estimated transaction costs. The fair value of restricted stock is considered to be its carrying amount.

10

Loans

Fair value for loans was estimated for portfolios of loans with similar financial characteristics. For adjustable rate loans, which re-price at least annually and generally possess low risk characteristics, the carrying amount is believed to be a reasonable estimate of fair value. For fixed-rate loans, the fair value is estimated based on a discounted cash flow analysis, considering weighted average rates and terms of the portfolio, adjusted for credit and interest rate risk inherent in the loans. Fair value for non-performing loans is based on recent appraisals or estimated discounted cash flows. The estimated value of credit card loans is based on existing loans and does not include the value that relates to estimated cash flows from new loans generated from existing cardholders over the remaining life of the portfolio.

Deposit Liabilities

The fair value of core deposits, including demand deposits, savings deposits, and certain money market deposits, is the amount payable on demand. The fair value of fixed-maturity certificates of deposit is estimated using the rates offered at year-end for deposits of similar remaining maturities. The estimated fair value does not include the benefit that results from the low-cost funding provided by the deposit liabilities compared to the cost of borrowing funds in the marketplace.

Other Financial Instruments

The fair value of federal funds purchased and securities sold under repurchase agreements, as well as Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings, is determined based on a discounted cash flow analysis using current interest rates.

The fair value estimates of financial instruments are made at a specific point in time based on relevant market information. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect these estimates.

NOTE 4 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Assets and liabilities carried at fair value are required to be classified and disclosed according to this process for determining fair value. There are three levels of determining fair value:

Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Corporation has the ability to access at the measurement date.

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability; and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability for which there is little, if any, market activity at the measurement date. Unobservable inputs reflect the Corporation’s own assumptions about what market participants would use to price the asset or liability. The inputs are developed based on the best information available in the circumstances, which might include the Corporation’s own financial

11

data such as internally developed pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, as well as instruments for which the fair value determination requires significant management judgment.

There were no financial instruments measured at fair value that moved to a lower level in the fair value hierarchy due to the lack of observable quotes in inactive markets for those instruments at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010.

The following summarizes financial assets (there were no financial liabilities) measured at fair value as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, segregated by the level of the valuation inputs within the fair value hierarchy utilized to measure fair value:

Balance as of September 30, 2011	$	17,008

A description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy, follows.

In general, fair value is based upon quoted market prices, where available. If such quoted market prices are not available, fair value is based upon internally developed models that primarily use, as inputs, observable market-based parameters. Valuation adjustments may be made to ensure that financial instruments are recorded at fair value. These adjustments may include amounts to reflect counterparty credit quality, the corporation’s creditworthiness, among other things, as well as unobservable parameters. Any such valuation adjustments are applied consistently over time. The Corporation’s valuation methodologies may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. While management believes the Corporation’s valuation methodologies are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value at the reporting date.

Securities Available-for-Sale

Where quoted prices are available in an active market, securities are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. Level 1 securities would typically include government bonds and exchange traded equities. If quoted market prices are not available, then fair values are estimated using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics, or discounted cash flows. Examples of such instruments, which would generally be classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy, include corporate and municipal bonds, mortgage-backed securities, and asset-backed securities. In certain cases where there is limited activity or less transparency around inputs to the valuation, securities are classified within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy. The Corporation did not have any securities classified as Level 1 or Level 3 at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010.

13

Impaired Loans

The Corporation does not record impaired loans at fair value on a recurring basis. However, periodically, a loan is considered impaired and is reported at the fair value of the underlying collateral, less estimated costs to sell, if repayment is expected solely from the collateral. Collateral values are estimated using Level 2 inputs, including recent appraisals and Level 3 inputs based on customized discounting criteria. Due to the significance of the Level 3 inputs, impaired loans have been classified as Level 3.

Other Real Estate Owned

The Corporation values other real estate owned at the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral less expected selling costs. Such values are estimated primarily using appraisals and reflect a market value approach. Due to the significance of the Level 3 inputs, other real estate owned has been classified as Level 3.

The Bank categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of the borrowers to service their debt such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, and current economic trends, among other factors. The Bank uses the following definitions for risk ratings:

• Special Mention – Loans classified as special mention possess some credit deficiency or potential weakness that deserves close attention, but which do not yet warrant substandard classification. Such loans pose unwarranted financial risk that, if not corrected, could weaken the loan and increase risk of losses in the future.

• Substandard –Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans classified as substandard have well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are categorized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

• Doubtful – Loans classified as doubtful have all of the weaknesses of those classified as substandard. Additionally, however, these weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full based on existing conditions improbable.

18

Loans not meeting the criteria above that are analyzed individually as part of the above described process are considered to be pass rated loans. The following presents loans as of September 30, 2011 that are collectively evaluated for impairment and are considered not impaired.

During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011, there was $253,000 that resulted from TDR loans and was factored into the Allowance for Loan Losses. Of that amount, $168,000 was in the multifamily real estate category and $85,000 was in the residential real estate category.

Within the TDR loan portfolio, four of the loan modifications resulted in delaying a portion of principal payments which results in a balloon payment of interest and principal at the maturity of the loan. The other three loans, all of which belonged to the same borrower, had a restructured rate that increased, due to collateral depletion; this caused an increase to interest income of approximately $6,000.

NOTE 9 – MULTI-BRANCH ACQUISITION

On August 31, 2011, the Bank entered into a Purchase and Assumption Agreement (the “P&A Agreement”) with The Home Savings and Loan Company of Youngstown, Ohio (“Home Savings”), an Ohio chartered stock savings bank and a wholly-owned subsidiary of United Community Financial Corp., to purchase certain assets and assume certain liabilities of four retail banking branches of Home Savings located in Tiffin (two banking centers), Fremont, and Clyde, Ohio. Under the terms of the P&A Agreement, the Bank will assume approximately $112 million in deposits and purchase the fixed assets of the branches. In addition, the Bank will purchase performing consumer and residential loans associated with the branches, which totaled approximately $28 million as of June 30, 2011. The Bank has agreed to pay a 4.0% premium on all non-public, non-jumbo, and non-brokered deposits. The Bank’s acquisition of the Home Savings branches is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2011, subject to the receipt of regulatory approvals and the satisfaction of other customary closing conditions.

PERFORMANCE SUMMARY

Net income for the three-month period ended September 30, 2011 was $1,541,000, or $.92 per common share, compared to $1,217,000, or $.72 per common share, for the same period in 2010. Net income for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011 was $3,848,000, or $2.30 per common share, compared to $2,992,000, or $1.76 per common share, for the same period in 2010. The results for the third quarter 2011 compared to the third quarter 2010 were positively impacted by an increase of $373,000 in net interest income, a $250,000 decrease in the provision for loan losses, and a decrease of $70,000 in non-interest expenses. Results for the third quarter were adversely impacted by a $204,000 decrease in non-interest income and an $165,000 increase to the provision for federal income taxes.

Assets at September 30, 2011 totaled $501,899,000, compared to $489,727,000 at December 31, 2010. Total cash and cash equivalents decreased $4,231,000 to $17,625,000 during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011, and total securities increased $31,596,000 to $176,219,000 at September 30, 2011. Total loans decreased $16,079,000 to $277,226,000 at September 30, 2011, from $293,305,000 at 2010 year end. Total deposits increased $16,761,000 to $400,918,000 at September 30, 2011, from $384,157,000 at 2010 year end.

25

FINANCIAL POSITION

The following comments are based upon a comparison of Croghan’s financial position at September 30, 2011 to December 31, 2010.

Total cash and cash equivalents decreased $4,231,000 (19.4%) and total securities increased $31,596,000 (21.8%) during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011. Total loans decreased $16,079,000 (5.5%) to $277,226,000 at September 30, 2011, compared to $293,305,000 at December 31, 2010. During the same period, deposits increased $16,761,000 (4.4%) to $400,918,000 at September 30, 2011, compared to $384,157,000 at December 31, 2010.

The increase in securities during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011 primarily resulted from purchases of available-for sale securities of $58,991,000, with maturities during the period of $26,312,000. There were security sales of $4,005,000 during the period, which resulted in gains of $149,000. Securities purchases were a direct result of the continued loan balance decline and deposit balance increases which resulted in the excess cash being put into interest-earning securities. The funds from the sales of securities were used to purchase more securities which allowed a redistribution of our maturity buckets.

The decrease in total loans during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011 continued to be the result of the sale of fixed-rate mortgages into the secondary market, pay-downs and payoffs from commercial borrowers, and the soft demand in the Bank’s lending markets resulting from a continuation of a sluggish economy.

Components of the increase in deposits include the liquid deposit category (demand, savings, NOW, and money market deposit accounts), which increased $24,739,000 (9.9%), and the time deposit category, which decreased $7,978,000 (6.0%). Croghan strives to maintain a strong interest margin by balancing deposit needs to fund anticipated loan demand and by maintaining the necessary deposit pricing structure.

Stockholders’ equity at September 30, 2011 increased to $61,797,000, or $36.93 book value per common share, compared to $56,513,000, or $33.71 book value per common share, at December 31, 2010. Stockholders’ equity at September 30, 2011 includes accumulated other comprehensive income, consisting of net unrealized gains on securities classified as available-for-sale, net of related income taxes. At September 30, 2011, Croghan held $172,375,000 of available-for-sale securities with a net unrealized gain of $3,624,000, net of income taxes, compared to $140,279,000 in available-for-sale securities at December 31, 2010, with a net unrealized gain of $507,000, net of income taxes.

Beginning in February 2002, Croghan instituted a stock buy-back program, which has subsequently been extended through February 1, 2012. Since the inception of the program, a total of 248,791 shares have been repurchased by Croghan. The 240,729 treasury shares held as of September 30, 2011 and the 237,729 shares held as of December 31, 2010 are reported at their acquired cost.

A cash dividend of $.32 per share was declared on September 13, 2011, payable on October 31, 2011 to shareholders of record as of October 14, 2011.

26

NET INTEREST INCOME

Net interest income, which represents the excess revenue generated from interest-earning assets over the interest cost of funding those assets, increased $513,000 (3.9%) for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011, as compared to the same period in 2010. Croghan’s net interest margin increased to 4.05 percent for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011, compared to 4.04 percent for the same period in 2010. The increase in net interest income resulted from the Bank recognizing interest of $206,000 which was paid off and collected during the third quarter on a loan that had been on non-accrual. Also contributing to the increase is the continued reduction in average cost of funds, and, as a result, lower rates on interest-bearing deposits. This reduction is offset by the decrease in loans and the increase in available-for-sale securities which are lower yielding assets.

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES AND THE ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

Croghan’s comprehensive loan policy provides guidelines for managing credit risk and asset quality. The policy details acceptable lending practices, establishes loan-grading classifications, and stipulates the use of a loan review process. Croghan directly employs three staff members dedicated to the credit analysis function to aid in facilitating the early identification of problem loans, to help ensure sound credit decisions, and to assist in the determination of the allowance for loan losses. Croghan also engages an outside credit review firm to supplement the credit analysis function and to provide an independent assessment of the loan review process. Croghan’s loan policy, loan review process, and credit analysis staff facilitate management’s evaluation of the credit risk inherent in the lending function.

Allowance for loan losses	$	4,864		$	4,955

During the quarter, Croghan recognized a $754,000 recovery to the allowance for loan losses on a loan previously charged off in the fourth quarter of 2009. As a result of this recovery, Croghan recognized a negative $100,000 provision for loan losses for the three-month period and a $300,000 provision for loan losses for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011, compared to $150,000 and $1,250,000 during the same time periods ended September 30, 2010. Also, during the quarter, there were new charge-offs of $426,000, which also contributed to this quarter’s allowance for loan loss calculation.

Total potential problem and non-performing loans, which are summarized in the preceding table, increased $3,917,000 (15.5%), to $29,168,000 at September 30, 2011, compared to $25,251,000 at December 31, 2010. At September 30, 2011, as compared to December 31, 2010, nonaccrual loans including TDR nonaccrual increased $737,000 and potential problem loans (other than those past due 90 days or more, nonaccrual, or restructured) increased $4,057,000, while favorable components of potential problem and non-performing loans included a $248,000 decrease in loans contractually past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest and a $629,000 decrease in accruing TDR loans.

Croghan typically classifies a loan as a potential problem loan, regardless of its collateralization or the existence of contractually obligated guarantors, when a review of the borrower’s financial statements indicates that the borrowing entity does not generate sufficient operating cash flow to adequately service its debts. All of Croghan’s potential problem loans, totaling $19,930,000 at September 30, 2011, were less than 90 days past due and a majority of these loans are collateralized by an interest in real property.

The following table provides additional detail pertaining to the aging of Croghan’s potential problem loans as of the dates noted:

	September 30,		December 31,
	2011		2010
	(Dollars in thousands)
Potential problem loans not currently past due	$	15,485	$	8,746
Potential problem loans past due one day or more but less than 10 days		3,300		3,079
Potential problem loans past due 10 days or more but less than 30 days		220		3,051
Potential problem loans past due 30 days or more but less than 60 days		412		641
Potential problem loans past due 60 days or more but less than 90 days		513		356
Total potential problem loans	$	19,930	$	15,873

Total potential problem loans increased $4,057,000 during the first nine months of 2011, which resulted primarily from a $6,739,000 increase in the loans not currently past due. This increase was partially offset by a $2,682,000 decrease in the aggregate amount of potential problem loans past due one day but less than 90 days. Total potential problem loans less than 30 days past due totaled $19,005,000 (95.4% of total potential problem loans) at September 30, 2011, compared to $14,876,000 (93.7% of total potential problem loans) of such loans at December 31, 2010.

The following table provides additional detail pertaining to the collateralization of Croghan’s potential problem loans as of the dates noted:

	September 30,		December 31,
	2011		2010
	(Dollars in thousands)
Collateralized by an interest in real property	$	19,325	$	15,427
Collateralized by an interest in assets other than real property		604		438
Unsecured		1		8
Total potential problem loans	$	19,930	$	15,873

Management will continue to monitor asset quality trends throughout 2011 to ensure adequate provisions for loan losses are made in a timely manner. It is Croghan’s policy to maintain the allowance for loan losses at a level sufficient to provide for losses inherent in the portfolio. Management believes the allowance for loan losses at September 30, 2011 is adequate to provide for those losses identified as well as those losses inherent within the loan portfolio.

NON-INTEREST INCOME

Total non-interest income decreased $204,000 (20.6%) for the three-month period ended September 30, 2011, compared to the same period in 2010, and decreased $279,000 (10.2%) for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011, compared to the same period in 2010. During the third quarter of 2011, the Bank had gains on sales of securities of $149,000 compared to $3,000 in 2010 and an increase of $12,000 in income stemming from service charges on deposit accounts. During the third quarter, the Bank had a write down from an Other Than Temporarily Impaired security of $283,000, and for the year, a write down of $394,000. This was a result of one municipal security that the Bank continues to monitor. Other decreases during the third quarter were gains on sale of loans which decreased $62,000, to $25,000, trust income decreased $8,000 to $260,000, and other income decreased $9,000 to $251,000.

NON-INTEREST EXPENSES

Total non-interest expenses decreased $70,000 (1.9%) for the three-month period ended September 30, 2011, as compared to the same period in 2010, and increased $55,000 (.5%) for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011, as compared to the same period in 2010. Salaries, wages, and employee benefits decreased $70,000 (3.3%) between comparable three-month periods and increased $48,000 (.8%) between comparable nine-month periods. Occupancy of premises expense increased $16,000 (8.0%) between comparable three-month periods and $34,000 (5.4%) between comparable nine-month periods. Other operating expenses decreased $15,000 (1.1%) between comparable three-month periods and $27,000 (.6%) between comparable nine-month periods.

Within the other operating expense category is the FDIC insurance expense. During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011, the FDIC insurance expense was $293,000, compared to $399,000 during the same period in 2010. The decrease resulted from a change in the way the FDIC calculates the expense, starting during the second quarter 2011. The new calculation is based on average asset size rather than domestic deposits, and will continue to be calculated this way going forward. The Bank prepaid the amount of $1,797,000 in December 2009 and had a remaining prepaid balance of $976,000 at September 30, 2011. These prepaid assessment amounts are included in other assets of the Corporation. Future quarterly assessments will be charged against the prepaid asset until such time as the prepaid asset has been full expensed, at which point the Bank will resume paying premiums to the FDIC.

FEDERAL INCOME TAX EXPENSE

Federal income tax expense increased $165,000 (53.2%) between comparable three-month periods and $273,000 (34.3%) between comparable nine-month periods. The Corporation’s effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was 21.8 percent, compared to 21.0 percent for the same period in 2010.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Short-term borrowings of federal funds purchased and repurchase agreements averaged $22,514,000 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011, compared to $20,002,000 for the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2010 and $19,275,000 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2010.

30

Borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank totaled $12,500,000 at September 30, 2011, compared to $35,500,000 at September 30, 2010, and $25,500,000 at December 31, 2010.

Capital expenditures for premises and equipment totaled $386,000 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011, compared to $447,000 for the same period in 2010. Capital expenditures in 2011 included the purchase of an office building, land, and an ATM in Tiffin, Ohio. Also included in capital expenditures was a new telephone system for our Green Springs banking center, new roofs for two buildings, and new blacktop for one banking center lot.

As of September 30, 2011, loan commitments including letters of credit totaled $76,359,000 compared to $73,324,000 at December 31, 2010. Since many of these commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, this total does not necessarily represent future cash requirements.
