Strong Commercial Loan Growth and Credit Quality Drive Old National's 2nd Quarter Earnings

EVANSVILLE, IN--(Marketwired - Jul 29, 2013) - Old National Bancorp ( NYSE : ONB )

2 nd Quarter Highlights:

  • Quarterly net income of $28.5 million increases 4.7% over 2 nd quarter 2012
  • Earnings per share of $.28
  • Growth in noncovered commercial loans of $94.4 million, or 7.2%, over 1 st quarter 2013

Today Old National Bancorp ( NYSE : ONB ) reported 2 nd quarter 2013 net income of $28.5 million, or $.28 per share. These 2 nd quarter results compare favorably to the net income of $23.9 million, or $.24 per share, that Old National reported in 1 st quarter 2013, and net income of $27.2 million, or $.29 per share, that Old National reported in 2 nd quarter 2012. Earnings per share comparisons are impacted by the 6.6 million shares Old National issued in the 3 rd quarter of 2012 for the Indiana Community Bancorp acquisition.

"These results represent a continuation of the positive momentum we have experienced over the past several quarters," said Bob Jones, Old National Bancorp President and CEO. "Not only were we able to increase our net income over the previous quarter while growing loan volume, we did so while continuing to control noninterest expenses and credit quality. These positive indicators, coupled with our July 12, 2013, expansion in Northern Indiana and into Southwestern Michigan through the acquisition of 24 Bank of America branches, indicate that Old National remains a strong, secure and growing community bank."

Old National Bancorp's Board of Directors also declared a quarterly cash dividend of $.10 per share on the Company's outstanding shares. This dividend is payable September 17, 2013, to shareholders of record on September 3, 2013. For purposes of broker trading, the ex-date of the cash dividend is August 29, 2013.

Committed to our Strategic Imperatives

Old National's strong performance through the most recent economic downturn, as well as its strong credit and capital positions, can be attributed to its unwavering commitment to the following strategic imperatives:

1. Strengthen the risk profile. 2. Enhance management discipline. 3. Achieve consistent quality earnings.

1. Strengthen the Risk Profile

Credit Quality

Old National continued the trend of improvement in overall credit quality metrics as the company reported decreases in non-performing and problem loans and lower net charge-offs in the 2 nd quarter of 2013. Provision expense in the 2 nd quarter of 2013 was a recapture of $3.7 million, compared to expense of $.8 million in the 1 st quarter of 2013 and $.4 million in the 2 nd quarter of 2012. Net charge-offs for 2 nd quarter 2013 were $.5 million, or .04% of average total loans on an annualized basis, below the $2.1 million, or .17% of average total loans in 1 st quarter 2013 and the $1.5 million, or .13% of average total loans, in 2 nd quarter 2012.

Old National's net charge-offs for the 2 nd quarter, excluding covered loans, were $.1 million and were below the $1.1 million reported in 1 st quarter 2013 and the $.9 million in net charge-offs reported in 2 nd quarter 2012. Continued positive trends in credit quality allowed Old National to recapture $3.3 million of provision expense in the 2 nd quarter of 2013, excluding covered loans, compared to recaptures of $.6 million and $3.4 million in the 1 st quarter of 2013 and the 2 nd quarter of 2012, respectively.

Old National's allowance for loan losses at June 30, 2013, excluding covered loans, was $43.9 million, or .90% of total loans, compared to an allowance of $47.3 million, or .99% of total loans at March 31, 2013, and $50.4 million, or 1.19% of total loans, at June 30, 2012. The coverage of allowance to non-performing loans, excluding covered loans, stood at 32% at June 30, 2013, compared to the 31% at March 31, 2013, and 50% at June 30, 2012.

"Managing credit risk continues to be a constant focal point of our community banking strategy," said Daryl Moore, Old National's Chief Credit Officer. "We are particularly pleased with the lower levels of non-performing and problem loans in the quarter as well as the relatively low levels of net charge-offs."

3. ACHIEVE CONSISTENT QUALITY EARNINGS

Balance Sheet and Net Interest Margin

Total period-end loans stood at $5.201 billion at June 30, 2013, an increase of $74.8 million from the $5.127 billion Old National reported at March 31, 2013. The commercial loans and leases segment (excluding covered loans) experienced its strongest quarterly performance since the 4 th quarter of 2008, growing by $94.4 million in the 2 nd quarter. The residential real estate portfolio also continued its positive momentum, growing $45.9 million in the current quarter. These segments of growth were partially offset by the $32.3 million decline in commercial real estate and the $37.8 million decline in Old National's covered loan portfolio.

Total investments, including money market accounts, decreased $136.2 million to $3.166 billion, from $3.302 billion at March 31, 2013. Average total investments increased $159.8 million to $3.223 billion at June 30, 2013, from $3.063 billion at March 31, 2013. During 2 nd quarter 2013, Old National sold $145.4 million of securities and had $26.9 million of securities called, resulting in securities gains of $1.8 million compared to $1.0 million of securities gains in the 1 st quarter of 2013. Old National has not incurred any other-than-temporary impairment related to its securities portfolio in 2013.

At June 30, 2013, total core deposits, including demand and interest-bearing deposits, declined to $6.840 billion, a decrease of $226.2 million, from the $7.066 billion at March 31, 2013. On average, total core deposits decreased to $6.952 billion during 2 nd quarter 2013 compared to $7.067 billion during 1 st quarter 2013.

Old National reported net interest income of $79.2 million for 2 nd quarter 2013 compared to $79.0 million in 1 st quarter 2013, and $76.0 million for 2 nd quarter 2012. Net interest income on a fully taxable equivalent basis was $83.4 million for 2 nd quarter 2013 and represented a net interest margin on total average earning assets of 3.97%. These results compare to net interest income on a fully taxable equivalent basis of $83.0 million and a margin of 4.04% in 1 st quarter 2013 and net interest income on a fully taxable equivalent basis of $79.2 million and a margin of 4.26% for 2 nd quarter 2012. Refer to Tables A and B for Non-GAAP taxable equivalent reconciliations.

Fees, Service Charges and Other Revenue

Total fees, service charges and other revenue totaled $44.3 million for the 2 nd quarter 2013 compared to $45.3 million in 1 st quarter 2013 and $42.1 million in 2 nd quarter 2012. The 2 nd quarter of 2013 included an expense of $1.5 million in the change in indemnification asset related to the acquisition of Integra Bank and no seasonal insurance contingency income. The 1 st quarter of 2013 included a $2.4 million gain on the sale of nine banking centers, $1.9 million in seasonal insurance contingency income, and an expense of $2.3 million in the change in indemnification asset related to the acquisition of Integra Bank. Old National has been accounting for the indemnification asset relating to the July 29, 2011, FDIC-assisted acquisition of Integra Bank under Accounting Standards Update No. 2012-06 since inception.

Income Taxes

The state of Indiana passed legislation in the 2nd quarter which lowers the corporate tax rate 2% over a period of four years. While Old National will benefit from this statutory tax rate change in future periods, the immediate effect was additional tax expense of $1.3 million in the 2nd quarter of 2013 related to the resulting adjustment to the Company's deferred tax asset.
