Pre-tax income was $2,157,009 ahead of 2018, primarily from a $1,333,402 gain on the strategic sale of securities. Pre-tax income was far ahead of last year, even without that gain.

"We continue to increase our business in the Redding area and are pleased with our growth and the impact we are making in the community. The Redding Business Office exceeded their 2019 loan and deposit growth goals and we look forward to how we can help businesses with their financial needs in 2020," said Mark Francis, President and CEO of the Bank.
