The bank, which has offices in Encino, the South Bay and on the Westside, reported a profit of $710,000 for the first quarter, compared to $578,000 in the same three-month period a year earlier. Total assets rose to $317 million as of March 31, up 4% from $304 million a year earlier.

Delinquent loans and other non-performing assets totaled $66,000 as of March 31, compared to $36,000 a year earlier.
