The company said net income for the third quarter that ended Sept. 30 was $1.71 million, or 17 cents per share, up nearly 140 percent from $717,000, or 8 cents a share, in the year-ago period.
"Our third consecutive quarter of strong earnings illustrates our company's ability to profitably grow, even through the current downward economic cycle and despite elevated provisioning for credit losses," said Patrick J. Moty, BOCH president and CEO.
BOCH also is the parent of Redding Bank of Commerce and Bank of Commerce Mortgage.
