All right. Thank you Marc, and thank you for joining our call. Since the third quarter of our fiscal year ended June 30, I think our results continue around the same path. We’re jumping to page 3 on the slides. Really, assets have continued to grow and our deposits are up, and continue to have a strong equity position. And moving next slide, really continuation of what our strategy to focus on the ARM production for loans, again 57% of our current fiscal year-to-date loan production is in our adjustable rate mortgage, and that’s been a big shift since 2010, as we focused on interest rate risk management. And again, you see some of credit scores and the average LTVs, just reinforce a strong credit underwriting that we’re focusing on as we’re originating these new loans. Again, our markets from operation on page 5, no change from where we’ve been between Ohio and Florida. Page 6 sort of goes over the financial highlights, and you’ll see again that the loan growth is continuing from where we were last year, where we were at fiscal year end, and where we were at previous quarter end. Our net interest income has stayed consistent. And I think as we’ve seen all along, our provision is really what’s driving our earnings. Unfortunately this quarter, it’s a little higher than what we had hoped for, and it’s a little higher than what we had last quarter, and last year as well. I think one of the main reasons for that is, while some of our delinquencies in non-performing assets, and those ratios are improving, it’s really the severity that we’re seeing in some of the loans as they go through a foreclosure process, bankruptcy when they’re going out, the problem is that homes are just not selling for values that we need. So that’s really the severity of the loss since what’s been boosting our provision to help us cover in future losses. Other than that, we try to keep ourselves aligned with same approach, our deposits as I mentioned before by continued increase and help fund the loan growth. In the next page, looking at capital position again, very strong we’ve always tried to focus on our capital, and that’s a good buffer for us as we move forward. The next page is a new chart if you’ve followed along from previous quarters, just try to give you a little bit of an overview of our deposit base and what it’s done over the last few years and what it’s done over the last quarter, few quarters and really staying consistent in our deposit levels and growing them to a certain extent even while the cost to funds, our average cost on those deposits have been decreasing over time, and that’s really what’s helping to support our net interest income number is being able to repay some of these deposits, and maintaining those deposits as they do re-price. So, that’s a key component as we move forward. And again the other half of the equation is on the next page, is the adjustable rate loan production. Again, we are very – continue the strong growth we have in there, not a whole lot from a purchase market, but a lot from a refinance standpoint. And again the level that’s in our ARMs is now a production of 57% of what we are producing are the ARM products and the average credit scores and LTVs have stayed very strong. Next page on the adjustable rate growth, we continue to move from an interest rate risk protection is to get more of our assets in adjustable products. So 46% of all of our loans, which includes the equity lines of credits and all these Smart Rate ARMs that we’ve originated, 46% of all loans, are now adjustable rate. And a lot of that growth is as a result of what we are looking at in some of the other states. As you may recall, we’ve started going out in May 2011 into 10 new states and we are increasing the volume in those states and that’s helping the loan growth. And just looking at first mortgages, our adjustable rate product is a third of all of our first mortgages at June. So we continue to move that percentage, the chart at the bottom of the page sort of shows where we’ve been over time and how we’ve been able to move that number to help us from an interest rate risk standpoint. Next page goes over the loan delinquencies and charge-offs. And the delinquencies continue to decrease and we’ve increased our loan balances. The charge-offs that have gone up from prior quarter and from prior year as we – I think a lot of the impact from the severity losses has impacted these charge-off numbers and we hope to get in front of some of these through the provision that we’ve setup. So again, it’s a quarter-to-quarter experience, with the economy what it is, we continue to focus on this, but that’s a number that continues to be outside of what we are hoping it to be. The loan portfolio trends on the next page just sort of go through graphically where some of the ratios are going. And you can see all of these have continued to either level off or decline over time, performing troubled debt restructuring and non-performing assets and the delinquencies got a boost in the December quarter from our specific evaluation charge-off, but if they continue to go down as we work through. So our delinquencies are down and a lot of that is hopeful as we start moving forward. Next page is probably the most difficult to write about because we’ve got that fine balance between the regulators who don’t want us to discuss anything to do with what they’re doing from an exam standpoint. And as we try to balance and making sure that we’re keeping the shareholders informed and what they need to know.
