• high

  Net income rose 119.7% to $5.0M (diluted EPS $0.79, +119.4%) driven by a $6.6M gain on sale of equity interest in a community-bank insurance consortium, partially offset by a $6.5M loss on securities repositioning. Net interest margin expanded 44bp to 3.00% as deposit costs fell faster than loan yields.
