Citizens Bancorp Announces 3rd Quarter and YTD Earnings

Nevada City, California, October 31, 2006. Citizens Bancorp (the “Company”) (OTCBB: CZNB), the holding company of Citizens Bank of Northern California (the “Bank”), announced record earnings for the nine month period ended September 30, 2006, net income was $2,176,000, a 31% increase compared to $1,657,000 in the same period in 2005. The Company earned $1.23 and $0.96 per diluted share for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Earnings per share for 2005 have been adjusted to reflect the payment of a 5% stock dividend on June 14, 2006.

For the three months ended September 30, 2006, net income totaled $674,000, a 5% decrease compared to $712,000 for the same period in 2005. Diluted earnings per share were $0.38 and $0.41 respectively, for the quarter ended September 30, 2006 and 2005. President/Chief Executive Officer, Judy Hess said, "Loan growth has been strong this year, however, the cost of interest bearing liabilities has continued to increase. Narrowing interest margins, together with personnel and occupancy costs associated with opening the Truckee and Auburn branches have affected our earnings this quarter. However, for the 9 months ended September 30th, earning are still 31% above the same period in 2005."

Hess went on to explain, “The Federal Reserve increased short term interest rates at 17 consecutive meetings between June 2004 and June 2006. The Company's net interest margin has declined from 6.12% in the nine months ended September 30, 2005 to 5.67% for the same period in 2006 primarily because of the increased funding costs. Good loan growth has somewhat mitigated the effect of the narrowing margins.”

Total assets for the Company, as of September 30, 2006, were $274.3 million, an increase of $55.3 million from September 30, 2005, and an increase of $47.3 million from December 31, 2005. This represents a year-over-year growth rate of 25% and growth of 21% since December 31, 2005. Total loans for the Company, as of September 30, 2006, were $251.2 million, an increase of $57.5 million from September 30, 2005, and an increase of $44.6 million from December 31, 2005. This represents a year-over-year growth rate of 30%, and growth of 22% since December 31, 2005. Total deposits for the Company, as of September 30, 2006 were $235.1 million, an increase of $42.3 million from September 30, 2005, and an increase of $45.5 million from December 31, 2005. This represents a year-over-year growth rate of 22%, and growth of 24% since December 31, 2005.

President/Chief Executive Officer, Judy Hess said, “We expect that growth to continue. Based on data published annually by the FDIC as of June 30th each year, as of June 30, 2006, our share of the deposit market in Western Nevada County continues to increase. In addition, we now have a branch in Truckee and will soon have a branch in Auburn; both markets are expected to be contributors to the Bank's growth for the future.”

Founded in February 1995, Citizens Bank, headquartered in Nevada City, became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company in 2003. The Bank has six branches in communities throughout Nevada County, including Nevada City, two branches in Grass Valley, and one branch each in Penn Valley, Lake of the Pines, and Truckee. In addition, a branch in Auburn is scheduled to open in November 2006. The opening of the Auburn branch represents the Bank's first physical entry into neighboring Placer County. Today, the Bank offers community banking services, including a wide variety of deposit products, commercial, residential and consumer loans, and other traditional banking products and services, designed to meet the needs of small and middle market businesses and individuals.
