Northern Star Financial, Inc. (OTCBB: NSBK) today announced results for the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary Northern Star Bank for the first quarter of the fiscal year ending June 30, 2009.

Northern Star Financial, Inc., the parent company of Northern Star Bank, reported a net loss of $110,923 in the first quarter ended September 30, 2008 compared with a net loss of $129,893 in the first quarter of fiscal year 2008. The basic loss per share of $0.12 for the first quarter of the fiscal year ending June 30, 2009 compared with a basic loss per share of $0.16 during the first quarter of the fiscal year ending June 30, 2008.

The Company's total assets increased to $57.80 million at the end of the first quarter up from $55.35 million for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2008. Total deposits for the first quarter ended September 30, 2008 increased $838 thousand to $40.43 million down from $39.59 million for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2008. Loan receivables net of allowance for loan losses remained constant.

When comparing the Company's first quarter fiscal year 2008 operating results with the results of operations during the same period of the prior fiscal year, President Stienessen said, "We have been able to achieve a modest improvement in operating results through an increase in non-interest income and by maintaining our net interest income despite minimal growth and unprecedented action by the Federal Reserve to quickly and significantly reduce interest rates." When compared to the same quarter of the prior fiscal year, the Company reported a $47 thousand increase in non-interest expense as a result of one-time cost associated with the write-down in the carrying value of a repossessed asset and expenses incurred in connection with a change in ATM networks. Stienessen restated his earlier comments indicating that he did not expect to see any significant near-term improvement in net interest margins as competition for deposits and quality loans is expected to remain high at the same time loan quality may well deteriorate as the economy worsens.

The Company commenced operations on January 25, 1999 as a bank holding company whose subsidiary provides financial services. Northern Star Bank's business is that of a financial intermediary and consists primarily of attracting deposits from the general public and using such deposits, together with borrowings and other funds, to make secured and unsecured loans to business and professional concerns and mortgage loans secured by residential real estate and other consumer loans. The Bank operates two full-service offices that are located in Mankato and St. Cloud, Minnesota.
