Also during the second quarter, Bank of Florida implemented several measures designed to improve its profitability and further support capital levels. Staffing, in particular back office functions, was assessed and decreased while, at the same time, revenue generating hires were brought on board. Following a comprehensive review of its other non-interest expenses, the Company temporarily eliminated matching contributions associated with 401(k) retirement plans and put into place policies for reductions in travel and entertainment expenses, as well as in employee health care costs. As a result of these actions, annualized, controllable expenses are expected to be reduced by $4.5 - $5.0 million, slightly offset by increased FDIC insurance and other miscellaneous operating costs.
