Adams Chief Financial Officer and Investor Relations (217) 356-2265 GREAT AMERICAN BANCORP, INC. UNAUDITED RESULTS THIRD QUARTER 2003 -- YEAR-TO-DATE $1,312,000 Champaign, Illinois - Great American Bancorp, Inc. (Nasdaq SmallCap/GTPS), the holding company for First Federal Savings Bank of Champaign-Urbana, reported earnings of $1,312,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2003, a decrease of $183,000, or 12.2%, from the $1,495,000 reported for the same period in 2002. Basic earnings per share were $1.71 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2003, compared to $1.77 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2002, while fully diluted earnings per share were $1.54 for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and $1.63 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. Net interest income was $4,263,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2003, a decrease of $523,000, or 10.9%, compared to $4,786,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. Net interest income declined mainly as a result of lower interest income from loans due to a decline in total loans from a year ago and a reduction in average loan yields. The decline in net interest income from loans was partially offset by a decrease in interest expense on deposits and Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") advances. This decline was primarily due to a shift in deposits from higher-rate certificates of deposit to lower-rate demand accounts. The Company also maintained lower balances of FHLB advances during 2003 compared to balances maintained in 2002. The Company recorded no provision for loan losses for the first nine months of 2003 compared to $140,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. Management's analyses of the allowance for loan losses during the nine months ended September 30, 2003 determined that no additional allocation to the allowance was warranted for the period. Noninterest income totaled $2,702,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2003, $435,000, or 19.2%, higher than the $2,267,000 recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. This increase was mostly due to net gains from sales of mortgage loans and an increase in insurance sales commissions. Net gains on the sale of mortgage loans were $647,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 compared to $404,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. The Company sold $32.45 million in residential mortgage loans during the first nine months of 2003 compared to $17.60 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. Insurance sales commissions increased $131,000 or 11.4%, from $1,148,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 to $1,279,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2003. This increase was mainly due to growth in new commercial customers and group life and health insurance customers. Noninterest expense was $4,906,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2003, $410,000, or 9.1% higher than the $4,496,000 reported for the nine month period ended September 30, 2002. Noninterest expense categories that were higher in 2003 included salaries and employee benefits, printing and office supplies, directors' fees, marketing expenses, and amortization of mortgage servicing rights. Net income for the third quarter of 2003 was $404,000, $118,000 or 22.6% less than net income recorded of $522,000 for the third quarter of 2002. Net interest income for the third quarter of 2003 was $1,322,000 compared to $1,633,000 for the third quarter of 2002. The Company recorded no provision for loan losses for the third quarter of 2003, compared to $30,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2002. Noninterest income was $848,000 for the third quarter of 2003 and $776,000 for the third quarter of 2002. Noninterest expense was $1,604,000 for the third quarter of 2003 and $1,561,000 for the third quarter of 2002. Total assets at September 30, 2003 were $163.07 million, compared to $167.25 million at December 31, 2002. Total net loans declined $23.29 million, or 19.0%, mainly due to the sales of residential mortgage loans. Proceeds from loan sales were mainly invested in short-term interest-bearing time deposits, which totaled $35.00 million at September 30, 2003.
