Between the improved strength of the balance sheet and the work ethic of our highly engaged team members, we are looking forward to continuing to create value for our stakeholders this coming year.”

The Company’s assets totaled $810.4 million compared to $802.6 million a year ago. Stockholders’ book value increased 2.65% to $16.27 per share from $15.85 a year ago.
