Glenn B. Marshall, President & CEO, stated, "We have successfully begun a year of evolution at First Resource with our first cash dividend and a strong first quarter. Construction of the first of two highly visible branded bank locations in 2014 is well on its way. We are excited about the development of our branch network and the enhanced deposit generation capabilities of the Bank which will in turn, enhance shareholder value."
Net interest income was $1,458,650 for the quarter ended March 31, 2014 as compared to $1,426,007 for the previous quarter. The net interest margin improved 16 basis points from 3.65% for the quarter ended December 31, 2013 to 3.81% for the quarter ended March 31, 2014. The overall yield on interest earning assets increased 15 basis points during the first quarter, with loan yields up 3 basis points. The cost of interest bearing liabilities declined 2 basis points during the first quarter, led by a 2 basis point decline in the cost of money market deposits and a 3 basis point decline in the cost of certificates of deposit.
Deposits decreased $919 thousand, or 0.7% from $139.9 million at December 31, 2013 to $139.0 million at March 31, 2014. During the first quarter, certificates of deposit decreased $3.7 million, or 4.9%, from $75.7 million at December 31, 2013 to $72.0 million at March 31, 2014. Most of this decline was due to scheduled maturities of non-core funding sources that were not renewed. Money market deposits increased $3.0 million, or 5.6%, from $54.0 million at December 31, 2013 to $57.0 million at March 31, 2014. Non-interest bearing deposits increased $881 thousand, or 13.7% from $6.4 million at December 31, 2013 to $7.3 million at March 31, 2014.

The loan portfolio declined $196 thousand, or 0.1%, during the first quarter from $140.0 million at December 31, 2013 to $139.8 million at March 31, 2014. Growth in the commercial real estate portfolio was offset by a high level of loan payoffs in every loan category during the first quarter. First quarter challenges included an unusually cold and snowy winter plus continued intense competition for loans in Chester County.
The following table illustrates the composition of the loan portfolio:

The allowance for loan losses to total loans was 0.96% at March 31, 2014 as compared to 0.89% at December 31, 2013 and 1.02% at March 31, 2013. Non-performing assets, which include non-performing loans of $1.7 million and other real estate owned of $599 thousand, totaled $2.3 million at March 31, 2014. Non-performing assets to total assets decreased from 1.51% at December 31, 2013 to 1.44% at March 31, 2014 due to a decline in non-accrual loans and other real estate owned, offset by a decline in total assets.
Non-interest income for the quarter ended March 31, 2014 was $95,967, as compared to $99,077 for the previous quarter.
Non-interest expense decreased $13 thousand, or 1.2%, in the three months ended March 31, 2014 as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2013. This decrease was due to higher salaries and benefits expenses and higher occupancy expenses, which were more than offset by lower other real estate owned expenses and lower other operating expenses.
