In announcing the earnings, Robert C. White, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated that the Company was pleased with the quarterly results which were positively impacted by declining levels of nonperforming assets and thus reduced loan loss provisions and costs associated with foreclosed assets. However, the Company's returns continue to be impacted by compressed interest rate margins. To guard against interest rate risk, a significant portion of the Company's loans and investments have shorter maturities or variable rates. The Federal Reserve has kept interest rates at historic lows since December of 2008 and the Company's interest rate sensitive loan and investment portfolios have adjusted downward to those rate movements to a greater extent than has the Company's deposit base. When rates rise in the future, the Company's performance should be enhanced by increased rate spreads generated by our ability to react quickly to such movements.
Although economic conditions are still challenging, residential sales in our local markets continue to show signs of recovery. Improvement in our residential real estate markets has occurred primarily because the excess inventories of available homes that were common during the recession have come down as the market continues to absorb existing product. While sales activity has increased quarter over quarter for most of the past eighteen months, it remains at levels below what was historically normal for the Company's markets in the pre-recession years. As a historically high growth area, relocation sales have typically represented a sizable portion of our local real estate market but have failed to keep pace in recent years because job growth has been inconsistent. Although our local area's unemployment rate has continued to drop over the past two years, further declines are necessary for the Company's local markets to be considered back to pre-recession levels. When the area's employment shows further improvement, our markets and our performance should also follow.
