Jeffersonville Bancorp, Inc. (OTCQB:JFBC) announced today first quarter net income of $1,562,000 or $0.37 per share compared to $1,401,000 or $0.33 per share for the same quarter in 2017. The increase in quarterly net income compared to 2017 was attributable to several factors. Net interest income increased by $143,000, non-interest expense decreased $181,000, and tax expense decreased $109,000.
