BEO Bancorp (OTCBB:BEOB), parent company of Bank
of Eastern Oregon, announced earning of $623,000
for the first quarter of 2008, compared to earnings of $455,000 in the
first quarter of 2007, a 36.9% increase. Earnings per share improved
from $0.52 to $0.71.
Total assets increased 11.4% year over year to $209,793,000. Total loans
grew 29.1% to $152,355,000 and total deposits increased to $174,012,000,
a 5.3% increase.
“We registered a solid start to 2008 in the
first quarter,” said President and CEO, E.
George Koffler. “The continued growth of good
quality loans and the reduction of our cost of funds were the primary
drivers of these good results,” Koffler added.
“We think 2008 will be a challenging year to
maintain the excellent earnings we delivered recently. The aggressive
reduction of rates by the Fed will make it difficult for financial
institutions to maintain net interest margin levels of the past three
years. The slowdown in the housing market will affect fee income
generation and credit quality is always a concern when values decline as
we have seen in parts of the state,” concluded
Koffler.
