I've lived in Colorado about 20 yrs. This is the only locally owned bank left, and I dare say they plan to stay locally owned. All the other Colorado banks sold out during the oil bust of 1980s and the following real estate bust.

They had a one time FDIC assessment in 3q96 causing earnings to be understated by $4 - 7 mill, depending on how you interpret the 10-K. I submit earns will grow by this amount PLUS the earnings generated by their acquisition ob s&L in Delta county on the western slope and their new banks in fast growing Highlands Ranch area in south suburban Denver.

Here's the quote from the 10-k on the FDIC assessment:
"The Company is subject to assessment by the Savings Association Insurance Fund (SAIF). In 1996, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) assessed a special premium on deposits insured by the SAIF. The Company's assessment approximated $7 million and is included in FDIC premiums in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations."

Read the annual report and Good Luck investing.
