after-tax earnings from banking operations, through three quarters
of 2013, are $826,000, or 35%, greater than for the same period of
2012. Contributing significantly to this improvement was our
strategic decision to strengthen our Commercial Banking division,
which resulted in a 17.5% growth in our total loan portfolio. Also
contributing to our improvement in earnings was our ability to
significantly reduce our cost of funds.
"As we continue to expand our presence into southern New
Hampshire, I am pleased to announce the opening of our newest
branch located at 750 Lafayette Rd, Suite 1, Portsmouth, New
Hampshire. This branch was opened on September 30th."

During this period, commercial and industrial loans increased
$92,629,000 and now comprise 63% of gross loans. This growth is
reflective of our efforts to increase small business lending
throughout the state.
- Total deposits increased $21,440,000, or 3.2%, to $684,462,000
at September 30, 2013, compared to $663,022,000 at September 30,

year.
- The efficiency ratio for the nine months ended September 30,
2013, was 71.50% compared to 74.90% for the same period last year.

$535,000 to $2,329,000 compared to $1,794,000 for the same period
