HERNDON, Va., Nov. 24, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- MainStreet Bank (OTC Bulletin Board: MNSB) reported net income of $346 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2010.

The bank's balance sheet continues on a positive growth track, with total assets at $237 million, which is an increase of 12% over the same period last year. Gross loans are now at $191 million and total deposits are at $200 million.

Chairman, President & CEO Jeff W. Dick said, "Our customer base is strong and we continue to grow our market share. We will continue to work with our customers through this period of economic uncertainty."

After six years of operations, asset quality remains strong with only one nonperforming loan, which represents the 100% SBA-guaranteed portion remaining on a commercial and industrial loan. This loan is currently in liquidation status with the SBA. The Bank also has one parcel of Other Real Estate Owned (OREO).

MainStreet operates branches in Herndon, Fairfax City, McLean and Clarendon. In addition, MainStreet continues to upgrade its technology for consumers and businesses. MainStreet now offers Mobile Banking, Bank-to-Bank transfers, a full integration with Quickbooks, online VISA® credit card access, and integration with Mint.com. And soon, MainStreet will offer existing and new customers the ability to open new accounts online.

With a robust and easy-to-use online banking technology, MainStreet has "put our bank" in well over 350 businesses in the Metropolitan area and across the United States.
