The decrease of $32,000 in noninterest income to $992,000 during the third quarter of 2015 was primarily due to decreases of $83,000 in gains on the sales of securities and $13,000 in service charges on deposits, partially offset by an increase of $80,000 in commission income. Noninterest expense increased $110,000 to $2.6 million during the third quarter of 2015.

The increase of $121,000 in noninterest income to $3.1 million during the first nine months of 2015 was primarily due to increases of $133,000 in commission income and $26,000 in net income from mortgage banking operations, partially offset by decreases of $33,000 in gains on sales of securities and $31,000 in service charges on deposits. Noninterest expense decreased $138,000 to $7.5 million during the first nine months of 2015 primarily due to a decrease of $328,000 in professional fees, reflecting a decrease in non-recurring legal and consulting expenses.
