Shoreline Financial says profits increased 5.6%.

BENTON HARBOR, Mich. -- Shoreline Financial Corp., a $630 million-asset bank holding company, said its net income increased 5.6% to $1.9 million, or 39 cents per share, from $1.8 million or 37 cents per share in the third quarter of 1993.

An 11% gain in net income was key to those results, as was a lower provision for loan losses, the company said.

For the first nine months, Shoreline reported earnings of $5.3 million, a 5.4% increase over the $5.0 million in the first nine months of 1993.
