Glenn E. Moyer
Joining me today is Scott Fainor, our Chief Operating Officer and Michael Reinhard, our Chief Financial Officer. I will start the call today by reviewing highlights from our second quarter 2008 earnings release which is available on the Investor Relations section of our website. Earlier today we included the press release in a report on Form 8-K that we filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Mike Reinhard will provide an overview of our financials. Scott Fainor will review our loan and deposit growth, asset quality and our merger integrations. I will then wrap up with some concluding comments.
Beginning with financial highlights I would like to note that our financial results for the year-to-date 2008 include Christiana Bank & Trust as of January 4 and KNBT Bancorp as of February 1. The addition of Christiana and KNBT has significantly changed our financial statements. Our second quarter 2008 results under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States referred to as GAAP reflect record quarterly net income of $27.21 million a $10.98 million increase over net income for second quarter 2007. On a per share basis we earned $0.31 per diluted share in second quarter 2008 compared to $0.32 per diluted share for second quarter 07. I made a mistake, let me repeat the per share basis. On a per share basis we earned $0.34 per diluted share in second quarter 2008 compared to $.032 per diluted share for second quarter 2007. Thank you and excuse my mistake.
