The bank reported net income of $10.7 million for the quarter, matching the third quarter of 2020, and net income of $36.2 million year-to-date, an 81% increase from the first three quarters of 2020.

The results boosted the bank’s stockholder’s equity to $549.6 million, an increase of $10.1 million from the second quarter.
