JASPER, Ind., Oct. 29, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- German American Bancorp (Nasdaq:GABC) today reported another quarter of strong earnings, posting 3rd quarter net income of $3,191,000, or $0.29 per share. This represents the 3rd highest level of quarterly earnings in the Company's history, surpassed only by the quarterly earnings recorded in the 3rd and 4th quarters of 2008. 2009 year-to-date reported earnings were $8,897,000, or $0.81 per share.
The strong level of quarterly earnings was only slightly less than the record net income earned in the comparable quarter in 2008, in the face of a more difficult economic and operating environment in the current year. As compared to the Company's 3rd quarter 2008 earnings, current quarter 2009 earnings were $128,000, or 4%, less than the $3,319,000, or $0.30 per share, reported during the same quarter last year. The Company's current year 3rd quarter performance was enhanced by a $1.0 million improvement in net interest income, supported by an increase in the net interest margin to 4.02% as compared to 3.89% in the 3rd quarter of last year, coupled with a 6.5% increase in the Company's average earning assets. The Company also increased its loan loss reserve by approximately $500,000 during the third quarter of 2009.
As compared to the 3rd quarter of last year, German American recorded $268,000 less in non-interest income resulting from the effects of the current economic downturn in the form of reduced levels of deposit service charges, trust and investment product fees, and insurance commissions. Additionally, the Company experienced approximately $750,000 in additional operating expenses, the majority of which was attributable to the combination of significant increases in the level of FDIC insurance premiums, resulting from an industry-wide increase in assessments as the FDIC has begun to recapitalize the deposit insurance fund, as well as higher health insurance costs due to elevated claims experience within the Company's partially self-insured health insurance plan. Further, the Company recorded over $400,000 more in provision for loan losses in the 3rd quarter of this year compared to the level of provision for loan losses that was expensed by the Company during the comparable quarter of last year.
Mark A. Schroeder, Chief Executive Officer of German American, commenting on the 3rd quarter results, stated, "We are gratified that, in the face of a very difficult economic and operating environment, we were able to again post a very strong quarter in terms of earnings performance. The fact that we were able to deliver the 3rd highest level of quarterly net income in the history of the Company in the face of lower fee income along with higher operating expenses, the majority of which were either directly or indirectly attributable to the current environment, is truly outstanding."
Schroeder continued, "While there certainly are other factors impacting the comparison of this year's 3rd quarter performance to that of the same period last year, the increased FDIC premium cost is one of the major items that is largely beyond the control of management. In spite of the fact that German American's performance has been strong, we are nevertheless subject to the industry-wide higher deposit insurance fund assessments that will be needed to recapitalize the fund in the wake of the FDIC's efforts to resolve troubled banking institutions throughout the country. Focusing on this one line item, by subtracting the additional $291,000 ($176,000 after-tax cost) of deposit insurance premium expense in the 3rd quarter of 2009 (in excess of the amount of deposit insurance premium expensed during the same quarter of 2008) from our actual GAAP non-interest expense, 3rd quarter 2009 non-GAAP earnings would have been $3,367,000, or $0.30 per share. This level of earnings would have been an all-time record for our Company, and few other banking organizations in the country can lay claim to that kind of performance in the current environment." For reconciliation of non-GAAP earnings and earnings per share, see "Regulation G Disclosure" below.
Schroeder stated further, "While we did note an increase in the level of both non-performing and past-due loans during the current quarter, our Company's credit quality continues to compare very favorably with other banking organizations both in our state and in the nation. As we have previously stated, we are continuing to closely monitor the performance of our loan portfolio, as we are very cognizant that the longer the economy remains in a recession mode, our customers will be increasingly challenged in terms of sustaining their impressive level of compliance relative to their loan commitments. We remain confident that German American's historic disciplined credit culture can continue to deliver solid asset quality performance (relative to other banking organizations) in both good and more difficult economic times."
The Company also announced that its Board of Directors declared its regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.14 per share which will be payable on November 20, 2009 to shareholders of record as of November 10, 2009.

Balance Sheet Highlights
End-of-period loans outstanding declined 4% on an annualized basis during the third quarter of 2009. The decline was driven largely by lower levels of commercial and industrial loans (including both real estate and non-real estate). Also contributing to the decrease was a decline in the residential loan and consumer loan portfolios as market interest rates remained historically low into the third quarter of 2009. The Company continued to actively originate residential mortgage loans, with the vast majority of production being sold into the secondary market. Partially offsetting the decline in these categories was an increase in the Company's agricultural loan portfolio. A majority of this increase was a seasonal utilization of operating lines of credits.

Non-performing loans totaled $9.9 million at September 30, 2009 compared to $7.4 million of non-performing loans at June 30, 2009. The majority of this increase was attributable to a single seasoned hotel/motel credit located outside the Company's primary market area that until recently had been performing, since its date of inception, as per contractual terms. Non-performing loans represented 1.12% of total outstanding loans at September 30, 2009 and 0.82% of total loans outstanding at June 30, 2009.
The Company's allowance for loan losses totaled $10.8 million at September 30, 2009, an increase of $493,000 or 5%, compared with $10.3 million at June 30, 2009. The allowance for loan losses represented 1.22% of period end loans at September 30, 2009 and 1.15% at June 30, 2009. The allowance for loan losses represented 109% of period end non-performing loans at September 30, 2009 and 140% of period end non-performing loans at June 30, 2009.
End-of-period deposits increased approximately 2% at September 30, 2009 compared with June 30, 2009 on an annualized basis. The increase was attributable to growth of the Company's core deposit base.

Trust and investment product fees decreased 25% during the third quarter of 2009 compared with the same period of 2008. This decline was primarily attributable to continued difficult market conditions and changes in customers' investment preferences. Deposit service charges and fees declined by 13% due in large part to less customer utilization of the Company's overdraft protection program.
Insurance revenues declined 11% during the third quarter of 2009 compared with the same period of 2008. During the quarter ended September 30, 2009, the net gain on sale of residential loans increased 25% over the gain recognized in the same quarter 2008 driven largely by a higher level of loans sold into the secondary market during 2009 as compared to 2008.
During the quarter ended September 30, 2009, non-interest expense increased approximately 8% compared with the same period of 2008.

========= ========= =========
Salaries and benefits expense increased approximately 4% during the third quarter of 2009 compared with the third quarter of 2008. The increase was largely the result of increased costs associated with the Company's partially self-insured health insurance plan. Occupancy, furniture and equipment expense increased 9% during the third quarter of 2009 compared with the same period of 2008 due in large part to depreciation expenses associated with renovations of existing branch facilities and upgrades to and purchases of information technology systems.
The Company's FDIC deposit insurance assessments increased $291,000 during the third quarter of 2009 compared with the third quarter of 2008. This increase resulted from an industry-wide increase in assessments as the FDIC has begun to recapitalize the deposit insurance fund.
Other operating expenses increased by 18% during the third quarter 2009 compared with the same period of 2008. The increase was attributable primarily to loss claims activity at the Company's captive insurance company. Also contributing to the increased level of other operating expenses was an increase in loan collection costs during the third quarter of 2009.
Quarter ended September 30, 2009 compared to quarter ended June 30, 2009
Net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2009 totaled $3,191,000, an increase of $427,000 or 15% over second quarter 2009 net income of $2,764,000.

Salaries and benefits expense decreased approximately 2% during the third quarter of 2009 compared with the second quarter of 2009. The decline was largely the result of lower costs associated with the Company's partially self-insured health insurance plan.
The Company's FDIC deposit insurance assessments decreased $555,000, or 63%, during the third quarter of 2009 compared with the second quarter of 2009. This decrease was due to an industry wide special assessment in the second quarter of 2009 of approximately $550,000 which represented .05% of the Company's subsidiary bank's total assets less Tier 1 Capital.
Professional fees declined 30% during the quarter ended September 30, 2009 compared with the second quarter of 2009. This decline was primarily attributable to a lower level of legal fees.
Other operating expenses increased by 28% during the third quarter 2009 compared with the second quarter of 2009. The increase was largely attributable to loss claims activity at the Company's captive insurance company. Also contributing to the increased level of other operating expenses was an increase in loan collection costs during the third quarter of 2009.
Regulation G Disclosure
This press release includes non-GAAP financial measures. The non-GAAP financial information should be considered supplemental to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. However, we believe that non-GAAP reporting, giving effect to the adjustments shown in the reconciliations provided below, provides meaningful information and therefore we use it to supplement our GAAP information. We have chosen to provide this supplemental information to investors, analysts and other interested parties to enable them to perform additional analyses of operating results, to illustrate the results of operations giving effect to the non-GAAP adjustments shown in the reconciliations and to provide an additional measure of performance.
The Company recorded FDIC deposit insurance premium expenses during the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2009 that substantially exceeded the levels of FDIC deposit insurance premium expense during the comparable periods in 2008, primarily due to industry-wide increases assessed by the FDIC to insured banks. While the Company believes that the 2009 levels of FDIC deposit insurance expense incurred by the Company are likely to continue in future periods, the Company believes that excluding the after-tax effects of this increased level of premium expense will provide investors with a basis to compare the Company's core operating results in 2009 as compared to 2008 without the material distortions caused by this external industry-wide factor.
