Earnings at Community Bank Shares of Indiana Inc. increased 35.8% in the fourth quarter from a year earlier, to $1.4 million.

The $799.7 million-asset company in New Albany reported a $5.9 million profit for 2010, compared to a $22.6 million loss in 2009.

The company attributed the year-over-year turnaround to repositioning the funding side of its balance sheet, including building key relationships to increase core deposits and reducing its borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank.
