FIRST INTERNET BANK OF INDIANA ANNOUNCES SECOND QUARTER EARNINGS
INDIANAPOLIS, IN July 24, 2003 - First Internet Bank of Indiana
(First IB) today announced net income of $80,358 for the quarter
ended June 30, 2003.
Narrow net interest margins resulting from declining interest rates
continued to affect earnings. Over the past several quarters, interest
rates paid on deposits and the Bank's overall cost of funds has
decreased, but not as significantly as loan rates, resulting in
the reduction in net interest margin.
First IB's continued loan growth and the corresponding increase
in the Provision for Loan and Lease Losses increased expenses by
$152,742. These loan loss reserves help to position the Bank with
a strong balance sheet moving into future periods.
"First IB has been successful in steadily expanding its lending
efforts, primarily to consumers, and our loan portfolio is up more
than 45% compared to the same quarter last year. However, this internal
loan growth was not enough to counter the substantial security and
loan prepayments we have received during this extended low rate
environment," said David B. Becker, Chairman and CEO of First
IB. "We consider the Bank's overall credit quality to be very
good and plan to continue with a disciplined approach to asset quality
and interest rate risk. In the short term, we will likely see modest
earnings, but we believe this approach is in the long term best
interest of the Bank and its stakeholders."
Net income before taxes for the quarter was $169,127 higher than
the same quarter in the previous year. However, the Bank had sustained
a substantial investment security loss in the second quarter 2002
that contributed to the positive variance to the current year.
As of June 30, 2003, First IB held $260.2 million in deposits,
a 25% increase over deposits as of June 30, 2002. Despite the increase
in deposits, overhead expenses remained consistent with prior quarters.
