Far West Financial’s Quarterly Net Drops

Far West Financial Corp., the holding company for Far West Savings & Loan Assn. in Newport Beach, posted net income of $5.9 million in the second quarter, a 23.4% drop from the $7.7 million it earned in last year’s second quarter.

The drop was in part caused by a $3.8-million write-off on its share of the secondary reserve fund of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp.

Far West’s $14.6-million net income in the first six months, however, was 9.8% higher than the $13.3 million earned in the same period last year.
