Total interest income for the quarter ending September 30, 2010 was $4,608,000 as compared to $4,749,000 for the same period in 2009. Total interest income was $13,792,000 for the nine months ending September 30, 2010 as compared to $13,971,000 for the same period in 2009.

“The results for the third quarter, ending September 30, 2010, continue to reflect the benefits of our long-held approach to community banking. Our increase in income, as compared to the third quarter of last year, as well as our reduction of debt, are calming signs in this struggling economy,” commented Michael G. Livingston, President and Chief Executive Officer. “While the decrease in debt reduced the asset size of the Bancorp, it also reduced our interest expense, which has a positive effect on earnings.”

On October 5, 2010, Glen Burnie Bancorp paid its 73rd consecutive dividend to shareholders of record at the close of business on September 24, 2010.
