The improvement in income as compared to the same quarter last year is due to growth in both the commercial and mortgage loan portfolios and better overall net interest margins.

Baronner said, "Credit conditions continue to improve and real estate values are beginning to show some appreciation in the Eastern Panhandle which is our primary market. Mortgage volume has shifted from primarily refinances to new construction and purchases, which is a good sign that the real estate economy is improving." Baronner added, "Most of our commercial loan growth over the last year continues to come from our two new offices in Middleburg, Virginia and Hagerstown, Maryland."
