The increase in non-interest expense for the twelve months ended December 31, 2019 was primarily a result of additional staff as the Bank continued to grow.
Net Income
The Bank's net loss for the fourth quarter of 2019 totaled $407 thousand ($0.12 per share) versus a net loss of $298 thousand ($0.09 per share), or an increase of $109 thousand or 36.6% from the third quarter of 2019.
