| MAINSOURCE FINANCIAL GROUP—NASDAQ, MSFG — Announces Earnings for the Second Quarter 2010 | 
|
|
Greensburg, Indiana (NASDAQ: MSFG) Archie M. Brown, Jr., President & Chief Executive Officer of MainSource Financial Group, announced today the unaudited financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2010. The Company reported net income of $2.2 million for the second quarter of 2010 and earnings per common share of $0.07 compared to a $38.1 million net loss and $1.93 loss per common share reported in the second quarter of 2009. In the second quarter of 2009, the Company incurred a non-operating, non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $45.1 million (on a pre-tax basis). Excluding the effect of this charge, the Company would have realized a profit for the quarter of $2.1 million, or $0.07 per common share.
Mr. Brown stated, “Credit related expenses continued to weigh down our earnings for the second quarter. The high provision expense recorded for the quarter included approximately $6 million dollars related to two existing non-performing collateral-dependent loans for which we obtained updated appraisals. In both cases, the loans were land development loans that had been on non-accrual for more than a year. Former appraisals supported the net value for which we were carrying each loan. With the exception of one large loan that migrated to non-accrual status in the second quarter, we have no significant remaining non-performing collateral-dependent loans awaiting updated appraisals. I am not pleased with another quarter of high provision, but I am pleased that provision expense for new non-performing loans was down significantly. I am also encouraged that the number and dollar amount of new non-performing loans is beginning to trend downward.”
Mr. Brown continued, “I am very pleased that our revenue continues to be stable. Our net revenue for the second quarter of $36.7 million was six percent higher than the same quarter one year ago. Significantly lower interest expense than one year ago has enabled our net interest margin to improve to 4.05%, a 19 basis point improvement over the second quarter of 2009. This along with increases in fee income areas such as service charges, interchange income, and trust and investment income were the reasons for the improvement in total revenue. Our strong revenue continues to enable us to work through our credit related problems. I am hopeful that credit costs will begin to subside in the near future and we will begin to report much stronger earnings.”
Mr. Brown concluded, “I am happy to report that at the end of the quarter we converted our recently opened loan and deposit production office in Columbus, Indiana into a full service branch. Columbus is part of our home market and we are pleased with our early results and very excited about our future growth opportunities there.”
NET INTEREST INCOME
Net interest income was $25.4 million for the second quarter of 2010, which was a $926 thousand increase over the second quarter of 2009, representing an increase of 3.8%. As previously mentioned, the Company’s net interest margin, on a fully-taxable equivalent basis, was 4.05% for the second quarter of 2010 versus 3.86% for the second quarter of 2009. The increase in the net interest margin was primarily related to a significant decrease in the cost of funds as the Company’s funding mix shifted slightly from higher-cost CD’s and borrowings to lower-cost transaction-based accounts.
NON-INTEREST INCOME
The Company’s non-interest income increased to $11.4 million for the second quarter of 2010 compared to $10.3 million for the same period in 2009. Increases in investment securities gains, service charges, interchange income and trust and investment income were primarily offset by the decrease in mortgage banking income. Interchange income continues to increase each period as customers change their preferred method of payment from checks to debit cards.
Mortgage banking income decreased year over year as refinancing volumes are down from the record levels realized in the 2009.
NON-INTEREST EXPENSE
The Company’s non-interest expense was $22.6 million for the second quarter of 2010 compared to $67.9 million for the same period in 2009, a decrease of $45.3 million. Excluding the impact of the goodwill impairment charge of $45.1 million taken in the second quarter of 2009, non-interest expenses were relatively flat.
BALANCE SHEET AND CAPITAL
Total assets were $2.9 billion as of June 30, 2010, virtually unchanged from the same period a year ago. Total loans were $1.7 billion as of June 30, 2010, a decrease of $198 million compared to June 30, 2009. Charge-offs of non-performing loans and overall weak loan demand continue to drive loan balances down. In addition, as on-balance sheet, fixed-rate mortgage loans refinanced throughout the past year, the Company generally sold these loans to the secondary market to mitigate its interest rate risk. On the liability side of the balance sheet, deposit balances remain at historically high levels. Total deposits were $2.2 billion as of June 30, 2010. The Company’s regulatory capital ratios remain strong and as of June 30, 2010 were the following: leverage ratio of 9.4%, tier one capital to risk-weighted assets of 14.7%, and total capital to risk-weighted assets of 16.0%. In addition, as of June 30, 2010 the Company’s tangible common equity ratio was 6.3%.
ASSET QUALITY
Non-performing assets were $93.3 million as of June 30, 2010 compared to $89.4 million as of June 30, 2009, and represented 3.27% of total assets at June 30, 2010 compared to 3.05% at June 30, 2009. On a linked-quarter basis, non-performing assets decreased by approximately $7.9 million. The decrease was primarily attributable to charge-offs taken during the quarter and the sale of foreclosed assets. Net charge-offs for the second quarter of 2010 were $14.4 million. Through the six months ended June 30, 2010 net charge-offs were $27.5 million and represented 3.02% of average loans. During the quarter, the Company obtained updated appraisals on two large non-performing loans where the Company is dependent on the liquidation of real estate to repay the loans. The Company charged these loans down to their appraised values less estimated costs to sell. These charge-downs decreased the loan loss reserve coverage of non-performing loans. As of June 30, 2010, the Company was carrying approximately $18 million of non-performing loans at their estimated net realizable value with little or no loan loss reserve. The Company’s allowance for loan losses was $41.4 million and represented 2.36% of total outstanding loans at June 30, 2010. This compares to $47.5 million as of June 30, 2009, or 2.43% as a percent of loans and $43.0 million as of March 31, 2010, or 2.36% of total loans.

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.

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 a goodwill impairment charge during the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 2009. The Company believes that excluding the after-tax effect of this charge will provide investors with a basis to compare the Company’s core operating results in the second quarter of 2010 to the second quarter of 2009 without the material distortions caused by this non-operating charge. The following table reconciles the non-GAAP financial measure “Net Income Excluding Goodwill Impairment Charge” with Net Income calculated in accordance with GAAP.
