Results of Operations
Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin. For the three months ended September 30, 2009, net interest income, before the provision for loan losses, was $14.6 million, an increase of $795,000 or 5.8% compared with $13.8 million for the same period in 2008, primarily due to lower deposit cost. Average interest-earning assets for the three months ended September 30, 2009 were $1.50 billion, an increase of $14.4 million or 1.0% compared with $1.49 billion for the same period in 2008, primarily due to growth in federal funds sold and other short-term investments partially offset by a decline in loans and other investments. The weighted average yield on interest-earning assets for the third quarter of 2009 was 5.77%, a decrease of 62 basis points compared with 6.39% for the same quarter in 2008. Average interest-bearing liabilities for the three months ended September 30, 2009 were $1.22 billion, a decrease of $3.8 million or 0.3% compared with $1.22 billion for the same period in 2008, primarily due to a decrease in other borrowings partially offset by an increase in money market accounts and time deposits. The weighted average interest rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities for the third quarter 2009 was 2.35%, a decrease of 93 basis points compared with 3.28% for the same quarter in 2008. Interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve, which caused the prime rate to decrease from 5% to 3.25% during the last 12 months, resulted in a decrease in yields and costs for the three months ended September 30, 2009, compared with the same period in 2008.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, net interest income, before the provision for loan losses, was $41.1 million, a decrease of $1.2 million or 2.9% compared with $42.3 million for the same period in 2008, primarily due to lower loan yields as a result of interest rate cuts and an increase in nonperforming assets. Average interest-earning assets for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 were $1.51 billion, an increase of $75.0 million or 5.2% compared with $1.44 billion for the same period in 2008, primarily due to growth in loans and federal funds sold and other short-term investments. The weighted average yield on interest-earning assets for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was 5.79%, down 104 basis points compared with 6.83% for the same period in 2008. Average interest-bearing liabilities for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 were $1.23 billion, an increase of $47.4 million or 4.0% compared with $1.18 billion for the same period in 2008, primarily due to an increase in money market accounts and time deposits, partially offset by a decrease in other borrowings. The weighted average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was 2.67%, down 87 basis points compared with 3.54% for the same period in 2008.
The net interest margin for the three months ended September 30, 2009 was 3.86%, an increase of 16 basis points compared with 3.70% for the same period in 2008. The increase was primarily the result of a decline in the cost of earning assets of 78 basis points partially offset by a decrease in the yield on earning assets of 62 basis points,. The net interest margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was 3.63%, down 29 basis points compared with 3.92% for the same period in 2008. For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, the yield on average earning assets decreased 104 basis points, which was partially offset by a 75 basis point decrease in the cost of average earning assets. The decrease in yield on earning assets and the cost of earning assets for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 was due primarily to interest rate cuts and an increase in nonperforming assets.
Total Interest Income. Total interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2009 was $21.8 million, a decrease of approximately $2.1 million or 8.7% compared with $23.9 million for the same period in 2008. Total interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was $65.6 million, a decrease of $8.0 million or 10.8% compared with $73.6 million for the same period in 2008. The decrease for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 was primarily due to lower loan yields and an increase in nonperforming assets.
Interest Income from Loans. Interest income from loans for the three months ended September 30, 2009 was $20.7 million, a decrease of $1.6 million or 7.4% compared with $22.3 million for the same quarter in 2008. Average total loans for the three months ended September 30, 2009 were $1.32 billion compared to $1.33 billion for the same period in 2008, a decrease of $4.7 million or 0.4%.

Interest income from loans for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was $61.8 million, a decrease of $6.9 million or 10.1% compared with $68.7 million for the same period in 2008. The decrease for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 was the result of lower loan yields and an increase in nonperforming assets. Average total loans for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 were $1.33 billion, an increase of $49.5 million or 3.9% compared with average total loans for the same period in 2008 of $1.28 billion. For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, the yield on average total loans was 6.22%, down 96 basis points compared with 7.18% for the same period in 2008.
Approximately $889.7 million or 67.7% of the total loan portfolio are variable rate loans that periodically reprice and are sensitive to changes in market interest rates. To lessen interest rate sensitivity in the event of a falling interest rate environment, the Company originates variable rate loans with interest rate floors. At September 30, 2009, the average yield on total loans was approximately 295 basis points above the prime rate primarily because of interest rate floors. At September 30, 2009, approximately $736.9 million in loans or 56.1% of the total loan portfolio were variable rate loans with interest rate floors that carried a weighted average interest rate of 6.34%. At September 30, 2008, variable rate loans with interest rate floors carried a weighted average interest rate of 6.76% and comprised 50.9% of the total loan portfolio.
Interest Income from Investments. Interest income from investments (which includes investment securities, Federal funds sold, and other investments) for the three months ended September 30, 2009 was $1.2 million, a decrease of $431,000 or 27.0% compared to $1.6 million for the same period in 2008. The decrease in interest income from investments for the three months ended September 30, 2009 was primarily the result of declining interest rates. Average total investments for the three months ended September 30, 2009 were $180.3 million compared to average total investments for the same period in 2008 of $161.1 million, an increase of $19.2 million or 11.9%. For the third quarter 2009, the average yield on total investments was 2.57% compared to 3.95% for the same quarter in 2008, a decrease of 138 basis points. Interest income from investments for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was $3.8 million, down $1.0 million or 21.8% compared with $4.8 million for the same period in 2008. The decrease in interest income from investments for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was primarily the result of declining interest rates, and the effect of a decline in taxable securities due to paydowns, sales, calls and maturities of securities. Average total investments for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 were $187.1 million compared with average total investments for the same quarter in 2008 of $161.6 million, an increase of $25.5 million or 15.8%. The increase in average total investments for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 was primarily the result of an increase in Federal funds sold.

Interest Expense on Deposits. Interest expense on interest-bearing deposits for the three months ended September 30, 2009 was $6.4 million, a decrease of $2.2 million or 24.9% compared to $8.6 million for the same period in 2008.

subordinated debentures for the three months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008
was $519,000. Interest expense on junior subordinated debentures for the nine

subordinated debentures for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009
and 2008 was 5.76%. The junior subordinated debentures accrue interest at a
fixed rate of 5.76% until December 15, 2010, at which time the debentures will

The average interest rate paid on borrowed funds for the third quarter of 2009 was 3.31% compared to 2.50% for the same quarter in 2008. The average interest rate increased as lower cost short-term FHLB borrowings were repaid and higher cost long-term borrowings remained outstanding.
