In addition to recording strong earnings, we were able to provide support to our communities through the SBA’s Paycheck Protection Programs (PPP), guiding our business customers through the application, funding and forgiveness process.

As we continue to navigate through the COVID-19 environment, the well-being of our customers, team members, stockholders and the communities we serve remains at the forefront. Our balance sheet is strong and we are well capitalized; this will allow us to continue to support the borrowing needs of individuals and businesses in our communities.”
