Mechanics and Farmers Bank seeks continued improvement

Jun. 05, 2013

DURHAM — The sun is rising, but it’s not quite up yet, said Kim Saunders, president and CEO of Durham-based Mechanics and Farmers Bank, in a report to shareholders at the bank’s annual meeting on Tuesday.

“Despite all of that, I am pleased, and we are blessed to be able to report, (that) the bank, since we opened our doors, (has continued its) century-plus record of profitability,” she said. “While down, (the profitability record) still remains unbroken.”
