Sierra Vista Bank continued to show a strong net interest margin of 4.50% for the 4th Quarter 2014, with a yield on earning assets of 4.83% and a total cost of funds of 0.35%. "The Bank's growth in 2014 of non-interest bearing accounts totaling $5.0 million to $30.3 million at year-end 2014 helped the Bank maintain our strong net interest margin," stated Lesa Fynes, EVP/CFO. "Non-interest bearing deposits ended the year at 29.2% of total deposits and the Bank remains focused in growing these core deposits."
