“Overall we are pleased with this year’s financial results and accomplishments,” said Associated president and chief executive officer Philip Flynn. “We continued to grow our balance sheet, total revenues, and bottom line earnings. In addition, we have continued to make substantial investments in the bank, which will position us for the future while slightly reducing total expenses. We remain focused on opportunistic ways to deploy capital while delivering increased value to our shareholders. We are also happy to kick off 2015 with last week’s announcement regarding the acquisition of the insurance agency, Ahmann-Martin.”
