Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
1. Background Information
Great American Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated
on February 23, 1995 and on June 30, 1995 acquired all of the
outstanding shares of common stock of First Federal Savings
Bank of Champaign-Urbana, ("the "Bank") upon the Bank's
conversion from a federally chartered mutual savings bank to a
federally chartered stock savings bank. The Company purchased
100% of the outstanding capital stock of the Bank using 50% of
the net proceeds from the Company's initial stock offering
which was completed on June 30, 1995. The Company sold
2,052,750 shares of common stock in the initial offering at
$10 per share. The Company began trading on the NASDAQ Stock
Market on June 30, 1995 under the symbol "GTPS".
In November, 1995, the Company's Board of Directors voted to
change the Company's fiscal year end from September 30 to
December 31, beginning with December 31, 1995.
2. Statement of Information Furnished
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with Form 10-QSB instructions
and Item 310(b) of Regulation S-B, and in the opinion of
management contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly
the financial position as of March 31, 1997 and December 31,
1996, the results of operations for the three months ended
March 31, 1997 and 1996, and the cash flows for the three
months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996. All adjustments to the
financial statements were normal and recurring in nature.
These results have been determined on the basis of generally
accepted accounting principles. The results of operations for

indicative of the results to be expected for the entire fiscal
year.
The consolidated financial statements are those of the Company
and the Bank. These consolidated financial statements should
be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements
and notes thereto included in the Company's 1996 Annual Report
to Shareholders.
PART I -- Item 2.
GREAT AMERICAN BANCORP, INC.
Management's Discussion and Analysis
or Plan of Operation
Great American Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") is the holding company for
First Federal Savings Bank of Champaign-Urbana (the "Bank"). The Bank
operates a wholly owned subsidiary, Park Avenue Service Corporation
("PASC"). PASC engages in the sale of fixed-rate, tax deferred
annuities and real estate development ventures. In August, 1996, PASC
also began offering full service brokerage activities through Scout
Brokerage Services, Inc., a subsidiary of United Missouri Bank.
Financial Condition
Total assets increased from $132,369,000 at December 31, 1996 to
$137,898,000 at March 31, 1997, an increase of $5,529,000 or 4.2%. This
growth was mainly due to increases in investment securities held to
maturity and net loans offset by decreases in cash and due from banks
and interest-bearing time deposits.
Investment securities held to maturity increased by $2,896,000, from
$3,400,000 at December 31, 1996 to $6,296,000 at March 31, 1997. The
securities purchased were all callable Agency securities with maturities
ranging from one to two years.
Net loans increased by $5,330,000, or 5.8%, from $91,443,000 at December
31, 1996 to $96,773,000 at March 31, 1997. The growth in loans occurred
mainly in one-to four-family, multi-family residential, and commercial
loans. One-to four-family residential loans increased from $51,710,000
at December 31, 1996 to $52,692,000 at March 31, 1997, an increase of
$982,000, or 1.9%. Multi family loans increased from $9,446,000 at
December 31, 1996 to $13,284,000 at March 31, 1997, an increase of
$3,838,000, or 40.6%. The majority of this increase related to one loan
secured by several apartment buildings. Commercial loans increased $242,000 or
2.5% from $9,861,000 at December 31, 1996 to $10,103,000 at March 31,
1997. Security purchases and loan growth were funded by an increase in
deposits and by the reduction in cash and due from banks and
interest-bearing time deposits.
Total deposits increased from $100,714,000 at December 31, 1996 to
$107,364,000 at March 31, 1997, an increase of $6,650,000, or 6.6%. The
increase in total deposits was due to increases in all categories:
demand deposits, NOW accounts, passbook savings accounts, and
certificates of deposit. Demand deposits, NOW accounts, and passbook
savings accounts increased by $1,809,000, or 4.5% from $40,186,000 at
December 31, 1996 to $41,995,000 at March 31, 1997. This increase was
mainly the result of three new deposit products introduced in January,
1997 and increased marketing efforts to promote these products.
Certificates of deposit increased by $4,841,000, or 8.0% from
$60,529,000 at December 31, 1996 to $65,370,000 at March 31, 1997. The
growth was mainly in certificates of deposits maturing in 18 months to 2
1/2 years.
Total stockholders' equity decreased $1,290,000 from $30,462,000 at
December 31, 1996 to $29,172,000 at March 31, 1997. Book value per
share increased from $18.22 at December 31, 1996 to $18.36 at March 31,
1997. The decrease in stockholders' equity is summarized as follows (in
thousands):
Stockholders' equity, December 31, 1996 $ 30,462
Net income 191
Purchase of treasury stock (1,468)
Dividends declared (165)
Incentive plan shares allocated 52
ESOP shares allocated 100
------
Stockholders' equity, March 31, 1997 $ 29,172
======
On February 28, 1997, the Company completed the repurchase of
5% of the Company's common stock or 92,630 shares at an average
price of $15.84 per share. The repurchased shares will be held
as treasury shares to be used for general corporate purposes.
Results of Operations
Comparison of Three Month Periods Ended March 31, 1997 and 1996
Net income was $191,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1997,
compared to $172,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1996. This
represents a $19,000, or 11.1% increase. Primary earnings per share
were $0.12 for the three months ended March 31, 1997, compared to $0.09
for the three months ended March 31, 1996. Fully diluted earnings per
share were $0.10 in 1997, compared to $0.08 in 1996.
Net income for the three months ended March 31, 1997 was higher due to
an increase in net interest income offset by a decrease in other income
and an increase in other expenses.
Net interest income was $1,375,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 1997
compared to $1,329,000 for the same quarter in 1996, an increase of
$46,000 or 3.5%. Interest income was $2,435,000 for the three months
ended March 31, 1997 compared to $2,077,000 for the same period in 1996,
an increase of $358,000, or 17.2%. Interest income on loans for the
three months ended March 31, 1997 was $2,062,000, $384,000 or 22.9%,
greater than the $1,678,000 recorded for the same period in 1996.
Interest income on investment securities for the three months ended
March 31, 1997 was $85,000, $16,000, or 15.8%, lower than the $101,000
experienced for the same period in 1996.
The increase in interest income on loans was due to higher average
balances in 1997. Average total loans for the three months ended March
31, 1997 were $96,053,000 compared to $77,602,000 for the same period in
1996, an increase of $18,451,000, or 23.8%. While average balances of
all loan categories increased, the majority of this increase was in
mortgage loans and consumer loans. Total mortgage loans averaged
$77,000,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1997, compared to
$59,857,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1996, an increase of
$17,143,000, or 28.6%. Average total consumer loans were $10,516,000
during the three months ended March 31, 1997, an increase of $880,000,
or 9.1% over the $9,636,000 average balance during the same period in
1996. Average commercial loans increased by $428,000, or 5.3% from
$8,109,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1996 to $8,537,000
during the same period in 1997. The growth in mortgage loans was
primarily in one-to four-family and multi-family residential loans and
was due to increased marketing efforts targeted toward these types of
loans. The increase in consumer loans was due to several consumer loan
promotions held during 1996.
The average yield on loans was 8.59% for the three months ended March
31, 1997 compared to 8.65% for the three months ended March 31, 1996.
The average yields on commercial and consumer loans were slightly lower
in 1997 due to a decline in the prime rate in February, 1996. The
average yield on mortgage loans for 1997 was unchanged from the average
yield on mortgage loans for 1996. The average prime rate was 8.34%
during the three months ended March 31, 1997, compared to 8.26% during
the same period ended March 31, 1997.
While interest income on loans was higher, interest income on investment
securities and deposits with financial institutions and other decreased
by $26,000, or 6.5% from $399,000 for the three months ended March 31,
1996 to $373,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1997. The
decrease was mainly attributable to lower overall average balances due
to the liquidation of $6,000,000 of available for sale securities in
November, 1996. The average balance of investment securities and
deposits with financial institutions and other declined from $29,429,000
for the three months ended March 31, 1996 to $28,260,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 1997, a decrease of $1,169,000, or 4.0%. The
average yield on investment securities and deposits with financial
institutions and other declined from 5.41% for the three months ended
March 31, 1996 to 5.35% for the same period ended in 1997.
Interest expense increased by $312,000, or 41.7% from $748,000 for the
three months ended March 31, 1996 to $1,060,000 for the same period in
1997. The increase was mainly attributable to growth in deposits during
1996 and in 1997. Average total deposits increased from $83,853,000 in
the first three months of 1996 to $105,713,000 during the same period in
1997, an increase of $21,860,000, or 26.1%. Most of this growth
occurred in higher rate certificates of deposit, mainly certificates
maturing in 18 months to 2 1/2 years. The average rates on deposits were
4.07% and 3.60% for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996,
respectively.
Net interest income as a percent of average interest earning assets was
4.49% for the three months ended March 31, 1997 versus 4.99% for the
same period in 1996. The spread between the yield on interest earning
assets and the rate on interest bearing liabilities was 3.78% and 4.15%
for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively.
The provision for loan losses was $39,000 for the three months ended
March 31, 1997, compared to $50,000 for the same period in 1996. The
lower provision for 1997 reflects management's decision to decrease the
monthly provision for loan losses as a result of a decrease in
non-performing loans and decreased charge-off activity occurring in the
first three months of 1997. Non-performing loans, which are loans past
due 90 days or more and non accruing loans, totaled $217,000 at March
31, 1997, compared to $548,000 at March 31, 1996. Non-performing loans
at March 31, 1997 were comprised of five residential mortgage borrowers
with balances totaling $94,000, four consumer borrowers with secured
balances totaling $39,000 and unsecured balances totaling $27,000, and
one commercial borrower with a secured balance totaling $57,000. All of
these loans are 90 days or more past due, with $20,000 of the total in
non-accrual status at March 31, 1997. Loans charged-off in 1997 totaled
$5,000, with no recoveries. Total charge-offs in the first three months
of 1996 were $25,000 with no recoveries. The ratios of the Company's
allowance for loan losses to total loans and allowance for loan losses
to nonperforming loans were .42% and 188.02%, respectively, at March 31,
1997, compared to .37% and 53.28%, respectively, at March 31, 1996.
Noninterest income totaled $158,000 for the three months ended March 31,
1997, compared to $165,000 for the same period in 1996. The decrease in
noninterest income was due to loans sold during 1996 which generated net
gains of $19,000. There were no loans sold during 1997. Other customer
fees were $34,000 in 1997 compared to $12,000 in 1996 due to increases
in ATM fees, credit card fees and safety deposit box rentals.
Noninterest expense was $1,165,000 for the three months ended March 31,
1997, compared to $1,138,000 recorded for the three months ended March
31, 1996, an increase of $27,000, or 2.4%. The increase was mainly due
to higher salaries and employee benefits and net occupancy and equipment
expenses, offset by a decrease in deposit insurance expense. Salaries
and employee benefits expense was $40,000, or 7.0% higher in the first
three months ended March 31, 1997 as compared to the same period in
1996, due to normal pay increases and higher compensation expense
recorded for stock based benefit plans implemented in February, 1996.
Net occupancy and equipment expenses were $22,000, or 13.0% higher in
the first three months of 1997 due to an increase in depreciation
expense mainly related to the purchase of check processing and imaging
equipment in January, 1997. The Bank began to process checks in-house
in January, 1997. Previously, a correspondent bank provided this
service.
Total income taxes increased by $4,000, or 3.0% from $134,000 for the
three months ended March 31, 1997 to $138,000 for the same period in
1996. The increase in income taxes was mainly due to the increased
earnings. The effective tax rates for the three months ended March 31,
1997 and 1996, were 41.95% and 43.79%, respectively.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Bank's primary sources of funds are deposits and principal and
interest payments on loans. While maturities and scheduled amortization
of loans are predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and mortgage
prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic
conditions, and competition. The Company's initial stock offering,
which was completed on June 30, 1995, contributed substantially to the
Company's overall liquidity levels. The Office of Thrift Supervision
("OTS"), the Company's and the Bank's primary regulator, requires the
Bank to maintain minimum levels of liquid assets. Currently, the
required ratio is 5%. The Bank's liquidity ratios were 25.56% and
18.87% at March 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996, respectively, well above
the required minimum.
A review of the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows included in the
accompanying financial statements shows that the Company's cash and cash
equivalents ("cash") decreased $725,000 for the three months ended March
31, 1997, compared to an increase of $1,079,000 for the three months
ended March 31, 1996. During the three months ended March 31, 1997,
cash was primarily provided from earnings, matured time deposits, and
increases in demand and savings deposits and certificates of deposit.
During 1997, cash was primarily used to fund loan originations, purchase
securities held to maturity, purchase treasury stock under repurchase
programs, and to pay dividends. During the three months ended March 31,
1996, cash was primarily provided from earnings, proceeds from the sale
of loans, and increases in demand and savings deposits and certificates
of deposit. During the first three months of 1996, cash was primarily
used to fund loan originations, purchase securities held to maturity,
purchase stock for stock based benefit plans, and to pay dividends.
The Bank's primary investment activities during the three months ended
March 31, 1997 was the origination of loans, and the purchase of
securities held to maturity. During the three months ended March 31,
1997 and March 31, 1996, the Bank originated mortgage loans in the
amounts of $15,695,000 and $7,166,000, respectively, commercial loans in
the amounts of $2,277,000 and $3,145,000, respectively, and consumer
loans in the amounts of $2,588,000 and $2,885,000, respectively.
Approximately $8,800,000 of the total mortgage loans originated was
participated to other financial institutions at the time of origination.
As of March 31, 1997, the Bank had outstanding commitments (including
undisbursed loan proceeds) of $1,242,000. The Bank anticipates it will
have sufficient funds available to meet its current loan origination
commitments. Certificates of deposit which are scheduled to mature in
one year or less from March 31, 1997 totaled $40,697,000. Management
believes a significant portion of such deposits will remain with the
Bank.
The OTS capital regulations require savings institutions to meet three
capital standards: a 1.5% tangible capital standard; a 3% leverage
(core capital) ratio and an 8% risk-based capital standard. The core
capital requirement is effectively 4%, since OTS regulations stipulate
that, effective December 19, 1992, an institution with less than 4% core
capital will be deemed to be "undercapitalized." As of March 31, 1997,
the Bank's capital percentages for tangible capital of 18.59%, core
capital of 18.59%, and risk-based capital of 33.45% significantly exceed
the regulatory requirement for each category.
