According to Fidelity Southern, the decrease in net income for the first quarter of 2009 compared to the prior year was primarily the result of a higher provision for loan losses due to higher charge-offs and adverse credit trends in the real estate construction and in the consumer loan portfolios requiring an increase in the allowance for loan losses.
Net interest income for the first quarter of 2009 decreased 6.1% to $10.99 million from $11.71 million for the same period in 2008. The net interest margin decreased 23 basis points to 2.71% in the first quarter of 2009 from 2.94% in the first quarter of 2008.
As of March 31, 2009, total assets were $1.87 billion, compared to $1.73 billion as of March 31, 2008.
