Basic and diluted net income per common share for the first nine months of 2014 was $.32, compared to basic and diluted net income per common share of $.69 for the same period of 2013. The decrease in earnings was due to a decrease of $3.4 million in interest income, primarily interest on loans, and an increase in provision expense of $1.8 million, offset by an increase of $.5 million in other operating income, a decrease of $.6 million in interest expense, and a $1.6 million decrease in other operating expenses. The increase in other operating income was primarily attributable to an increase of $.9 million in gains on sales of securities offset by reductions in other real estate owned rental income.

expenses and a decrease of $.7 million in other miscellaneous expenses. Declines in other miscellaneous expenses such as miscellaneous loan fees, deferred compensation, and personnel related expenses also contributed to the decrease.
