EVANSVILLE, IN--(Marketwired - Jul 25, 2014) - First Bancorp of Indiana, Inc., (
Although gains on loan sales declined $830,000 in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014, net income decreased just $186,000 to $1.4 million as net interest income improved 5.5% supported by the strong loan growth. Costs associated with a new operations center, a new branch facility in Petersburg, Indiana, and additional staffing needs were largely responsible for the 2.3% increase in noninterest expenses for the comparative fiscal years.
At approximately 8.9%, First Federal's tier one capital ratio at June 30, 2014, was well in excess of the five percent regulatory standard for "well-capitalized" financial institutions. The bank's other capital measurements also continue to comfortably exceed "well-capitalized" standards. In addition, First Bancorp has paid a cash dividend of 15.5 cents per outstanding share for 25 consecutive quarters.
