This increase was the net result of a decrease in noninterest expense of $465,000, an increase in noninterest income of $384,000, and an increase in net interest income of $50,000, offset by an increase in tax expense of $285,000 and an increase in the provision for loan losses of $32,000.
The decrease in noninterest expense for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 versus the same periods in 2014 includes the impact of $820,000 of one-time expense recognized in the third quarter of 2014. This one-time expense was for the estimated value of an executive retirement compensation agreement.

Shareholders' Equity
Shareholders' equity decreased $0.8 million to $54.7 million at September 30, 2015 compared to December 31, 2014.

The current level of shareholders' equity equates to a book value per share of $16.49 at September 30, 2015, compared to $16.91 at December 31, 2014.
