German American Bancorp, Inc. (GABC) Reports Strong Second Quarter Earnings

JASPER, Ind., July 31, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- German American Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ:GABC) reported that the Company has achieved another quarter of strong earnings during the second quarter of 2017, posting net income of $9.8 million, or $0.43 per share.  On a comparative per share basis, this level of quarterly earnings was a 2.4% increase over reported net income of $9.6 million, or $0.42 per share, in the first quarter of 2017, and was in-line with the second quarter 2016 net income of $9.8 million, or $0.43 per share.

On a year-to-date basis, German American’s 2017 net income of $19.4 million, or $0.85 per share, was a 25% increase over the $14.9 million, or $0.68 per share, reported during the first half of 2016.  The Company’s year-to-date 2016 reported net income was inclusive of the operations of River Valley Bancorp, following completion of the merger transaction on March 1, 2016, and reflected merger-related costs totaling approximately $4.1 million, or $2.6 million on an after-tax basis, representing approximately $0.12 per share.  All per share data in this release has been adjusted for and is reflective of the effect of the three-for-two stock split distributed on April 21, 2017.

Second quarter 2017 performance, relative to the same quarter 2016 results, was enhanced by an increase of $142,000 in net interest income, driven by approximately $71 million, or  4%, in end of period loan growth, measured at June 30, 2017 compared to June 30, 2016.  Loan growth during the current quarter, as measured from March 31, 2017 end of period loan balances, was approximately $48 million, or 10% on a linked quarter annualized basis.

In addition, the Company’s second quarter 2017 non-interest income, exclusive of securities gains, increased by $710,000, or 10%, during the second quarter of 2017 as compared with the second quarter of 2016.  Items that showed improvement in non-interest income during the current quarter included increases of 32% in interchange fee income, primarily from increased customer debit card usage, 10% in trust and investment product fees, and 9% in both insurance revenues and from gains on loan sales.  Partially offsetting these improved areas of non-interest income was a $968,000 decrease in gains on securities sales, as the Company didn’t experience any security sales in the second quarter of 2017.

Commenting on the Company’s strong quarterly financial performance, Mark A. Schroeder, German American’s Chairman & CEO, stated, "We’re certainly pleased in our ability to post strong financial performance both during the current quarter and year-to-date.  We are particularly encouraged by the strong double-digit growth we experienced since the same quarter of last year within numerous categories of non-interest income and by the exceptionally strong level of loan growth during the current quarter.  The $48 million in second quarter loan growth, which represents approximately 10% annualized growth on linked quarter basis, positions us very well for enhanced levels of net interest income going forward.”

The Company also announced the declaration of a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.13 per share, which will be payable on August 20, 2017 to shareholders of record as of August 10, 2017. This level of regular quarterly cash dividend represents approximately an 8% increase, on a stock split adjusted basis, above the Company’s quarterly cash dividend level paid in the prior year.

Balance Sheet Highlights

Total assets for the Company increased to $3.005 billion at June 30, 2017, representing an increase of $71.7 million, or 10% on an annualized basis, compared with March 31, 2017 and an increase of $89.0 million, or 3%, compared with June 30, 2016.

June 30, 2017 total loans increased $48.2 million, or 10% on an annualized basis, compared with March 31, 2017 and increased $70.9 million, or 4%, compared with June 30, 2016.  The increase during the second quarter of 2017 was largely related to an increase of approximately $21.6 million, or 7% on an annualized basis, of commercial real estate and commercial and industrial loans, a seasonal increase of $20.6 million, or 28% on an annualized basis, of agricultural loans and an increase of $5.9 million, or 6% on annualized basis of retail loans.

Non-performing assets totaled $4.4 million at June 30, 2017 compared to $5.9 million of non-performing assets at March 31, 2017 and $9.7 million at June 30, 2016.  Non-performing assets represented 0.15% of total assets at June 30, 2017 compared to 0.20% of total assets at March 31, 2017 and 0.33% of total assets at June 30, 2016.  Non-performing loans totaled $3.2 million at June 30, 2017 compared to $5.7 million at March 31, 2017 and $9.3 million of non-performing loans at June 30, 2016.  Non-performing loans represented 0.16% of total loans at June 30, 2017 compared to 0.29% at March 31, 2017 and 0.48% at June 30, 2016.  The decline in non-performing assets during the second quarter of 2017 compared with March 31, 2017 levels was attributable to a single agricultural relationship that was more than 90 days past due and still on accrual status at March 31, 2017 that was brought current during the second quarter of 2017.

The Company’s allowance for loan losses totaled $15.3 million at June 30, 2017 compared to $15.2 million at March 31, 2017 and $15.3 million at June 30, 2016.  The allowance for loan losses represented 0.75% of period-end loans at June 30, 2017 compared with 0.76% of period-end loans at March 31, 2017 and 0.78% of period-end loans at June 30, 2016.  Under acquisition accounting treatment, loans acquired are recorded at fair value which includes a credit risk component, and therefore the allowance on loans acquired is not carried over from the seller.  The Company held a discount on acquired loans of $8.2 million as of June 30, 2017, $9.2 million at March 31, 2017 and $11.8 million at June 30, 2016.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2017, net interest income totaled $24,813,000 which remained relatively stable compared to prior periods as indicated by an increase of $88,000, or slightly under 1%, from the quarter ended March 31, 2017 net interest income of $24,725,000 and an increase of $142,000, or slightly under 1%, compared with the quarter ended June 30, 2016 net interest income of $24,671,000.

The tax equivalent net interest margin for the quarter ended June 30, 2017 was 3.78% compared with 3.86% in both the first quarter of 2017 and second quarter of 2016.  The decline in the stated net interest margin was largely attributable to a decline in the accretion of loan discounts on acquired loans and to a lesser degree on an increase in Company's cost of funds.  Accretion of loan discounts on acquired loans contributed approximately 10 basis points to the net interest margin on an annualized basis in the second quarter of 2017, 17 basis points in the first quarter of 2017, and 23 basis points in the second quarter of 2016.  The Company's cost of funds increased approximately 3 basis points in the second quarter of 2017 compared with the first quarter of 2017 and 4 basis points compared with the second quarter of 2016.  The higher cost of funds was largely attributable to an increase in short-term market interest rates over the past several quarters.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2017, the Company recorded a provision for loan loss of $350,000 compared with a provision for loan loss of $500,000 during the first quarter of 2017 and a provision of $350,000 in the second quarter of 2016.  The provision during all periods was done in accordance with the Company's standard methodology for determining the adequacy of its allowance for loan loss.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2017, non-interest income totaled $7,797,000, a decline of $391,000, or 5%, compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2017, and a decline of $258,000, or 3%, compared with the second quarter of 2016.

Insurance revenues declined $896,000, or 34%, during the quarter ended June 30, 2017, compared with the first quarter of 2017 and increased $139,000, or 9%, compared with the second quarter of 2016.  The decline during the second quarter of 2017 compared with the first quarter of 2017 was due to contingency revenue.  Contingency revenue during the first quarter of 2017 totaled $992,000 compared with no contingency revenue during the second quarter of 2017.  The fluctuation in contingency revenue is a normal course of business variance and is reflective of claims and loss experience with insurance carriers that the Company represents through its property and casualty insurance agency.  Typically, the majority of contingency revenue is recognized during the first quarter of the year.

Company owned life insurance revenue increased $226,000, or 89%, during the quarter ended June 30, 2017, compared with the first quarter of 2017 and increased $233,000, or 94%, compared with the second quarter of 2016.  The increase was largely related to death benefits received from life insurance policies during the quarter ended June 30, 2017.

Interchange fee income increased $133,000, or 13%, during the second quarter of 2017 compared with the first quarter of 2017 and $283,000, or 32%, compared with the second quarter of 2017.  The increase was largely attributable to increased card utilization by customers.

Other operating income decreased $227,000, or 26%, during the quarter ended June 30, 2017 compared with the first quarter of 2017 and decreased $92,000, or 13%, compared with the second quarter of 2016.  The decline in the second quarter of 2017 compared with both comparative periods was largely attributable to decreased fees associated with swap transactions with loan customers.

Net gains on sales of loans increased $272,000, or 40%, during the second quarter of 2017 compared with the first quarter of 2017 and increased $76,000, or 9%, compared with the second quarter of 2016.  The increase in the gain on sales of loans during the second quarter of 2017 compared with both comparative periods was primarily due to improved pricing on loans sold and those loans held for sale.  Loan sales totaled $29.8 million during the second quarter of 2017, compared with $32.3 million during the first quarter of 2017 and $36.8 million during the second quarter of 2016.

The Company realized no gains on sales of securities during the second quarter of 2017 or the first quarter of 2017 compared with a net gain on the sale of securities of $968,000 in the second quarter of 2016.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2017, non-interest expense totaled $18,996,000, a decline of $40,000, or less than 1%, compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2017, and an increase of $657,000, or 4%, compared with the second quarter of 2016.

Salaries and benefits increased $16,000, or less than 1%, during the quarter ended June 30, 2017 compared with the first quarter of quarter of 2017 and increased $1,276,000, or 13%, compared with the second quarter of 2016.  The increase in salaries and benefits during the second quarter of 2017 compared with the second quarter of 2016 was primarily attributable to an increased number of full-time equivalent employees and higher levels of employee benefit costs including incentive compensation plan costs and health insurance costs.

Professional fees increased $110,000, or 14%, during the quarter ended June 30, 2017 compared with the first quarter of quarter of 2017 and increased $133,000, or 17%, compared with the second quarter of 2016.  The increase in both comparative periods was largely attributable to costs associated with the three-for-two stock split completed during the second quarter of 2017.

Advertising and promotion decreased $148,000, or 19%, during the quarter ended June 30, 2017 compared with the first quarter of 2017 and remained virtually unchanged compared with the second quarter of 2016.  The decrease in advertising and promotion was largely related to the timing of charitable contribution activity.

Other operating expenses decreased $75,000, or 3%, during the quarter ended June 30, 2017 compared with the first quarter of 2017 and decreased $445,000, or 17% compared with the second quarter of 2016.  The decline compared to the second quarter of 2016 was primarily attributable to various card and deposit account expenses which were higher in 2016 related to the River Valley transaction and to deposit gathering strategic initiatives.
