JASPER, Ind., July 27, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- German American Bancorp, Inc. (Nasdaq:GABC - News) today reported yet another quarter of strong earnings. During the 2nd quarter, the Company earned $2,764,000, or $0.25 per share with 2009 year-to-date reported earnings of $5,706,000, or $0.52 per share. Although 2009 reported earnings were less than the record levels of net income earned in 2008, the earnings difference is directly attributable to an increased level of deposit insurance premiums during 2009. Exclusive of the additional $860,000 ($519,000 after-tax cost) of deposit insurance premium expense in the 2nd quarter of 2009, and the additional $1,169,000 ($706,000 after-tax cost) of deposit insurance premium expense recorded during the first six months of 2009 (compared to that expensed during the same quarter and year-to-date period of 2008), 2009 2nd quarter non-GAAP earnings would have been $3,283,000, or $0.30 per share, approximately 6% greater than last year's record 2nd quarter earnings of $3,111,000, or $0.28 per share, and 2009 year-to-date non-GAAP earnings would have been $6,412,000, or $0.58 per share, representing a 5% improvement from the 2008 year-to-date reported earnings of $6,131,000, or $0.55 per share. For reconciliation of non-GAAP earnings and earnings per share, see "Regulation G Disclosure" below.
Mark A. Schroeder, Chief Executive Officer of German American, commenting on the 2nd quarter and year-to-date results stated, "We continue to be extremely pleased that in the face of continued elevated FDIC insurance premium costs, we were able to post very solid quarterly and year-to-date financial performance. FDIC's deposit insurance reserves are funded by industry assessments, meaning that in spite of German American's strong risk profile, we, like all insured banking organizations, are facing significantly higher deposit premiums as the FDIC deals with the costs of resolving troubled banking institutions throughout the country. While we anticipate the elevated level of FDIC deposit premium expense will continue in the coming months, our strong performance continues to set us apart within the financial services industry in terms of both earnings and credit quality."
Schroeder continued, "As compared to both the prior quarter-end and prior year quarter-end data, our Company's credit quality continues to compare very favorably with other banking organizations both in our state and in the nation. As of June 30, 2009, our level of both non-performing loans and past-due loans were better than the already strong levels recorded at March 31, 2009 and June 30, 2008. While many other banking companies are experiencing high and increasing levels of non-performing and past-due loans, German American's disciplined credit culture continues to deliver solid asset quality numbers. In the face of an ongoing weakened general economic environment, we are continuing to closely monitor the performance of our loan portfolio, as we are very cognizant that the longer the economy remains in a recession mode, our customers will be increasingly challenged in terms of sustaining their impressive level of compliance relative to their loan commitments."
The Company also announced that its Board of Directors declared its regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.14 per share which will be payable on August 20, 2009 to shareholders of record as of August 10, 2009.

Balance Sheet Highlights
End-of-period loans outstanding increased by 11% on an annualized basis during the second quarter of 2009. The increase was driven largely by higher levels of commercial and industrial loans (including both real estate and non-real estate). A majority of the growth in the commercial loan portfolio was attributable to the purchase of approximately $20 million of loans from another financial institution in an existing market of the Company. This purchase was completed on June 30, 2009. Partially offsetting this increase was a decline in the residential loan portfolio as market interest rates continued to trend lower during the second quarter of 2009. The Company continues to actively originate residential mortgage loans, with the vast majority of production being sold into the secondary market.

Trust and investment product fees decreased 28% during the second quarter of 2009 compared with the same period of 2008. This decline was primarily attributable to continued volatile economic and market conditions. Deposit service charges and fees declined by 13% due in large part to less customer utilization of the Company's overdraft protection program. Other operating income declined 48% due in large part to write-downs on other real estate owned properties that totaled approximately $228,000 during the second quarter of 2009.
During the quarter ended June 30, 2009, the net gain on sale of residential loans increased 14% over the gain recognized in the quarter ended June 30, 2008. The increase was attributable to higher levels of residential loan sales and a larger pipeline of residential mortgage loans in the second quarter of 2009, compared to the same period of 2008.
During the quarter ended June 30, 2009, non-interest expense increased approximately 14% compared with the same period of 2008.

Salaries and benefits expense increased approximately 8% during the second quarter of 2009 compared with the second quarter of 2008. The increase was largely related to an increase in costs associated with the Company's self-insured health insurance plan.
The Company's FDIC deposit insurance assessments increased $860,000 during the second quarter of 2009 compared with the second quarter of 2008. This increase resulted from an industry-wide increase in assessments as the FDIC has begun to recapitalize the deposit insurance fund, in addition to an industry wide special assessment in the second quarter of 2009 of approximately $550,000 which represents 5 basis points of the Company's subsidiary bank's total assets less Tier 1 Capital.
Quarter ended June 30, 2009 compared to quarter ended March 31, 2009

Insurance revenues declined 13% during the quarter ended June 30, 2009 compared with the first quarter of 2009. The decline was attributable to contingency revenues that were received in the normal course of business during first quarter of the year and the general cyclical nature of the Company's property and casualty insurance business.
Other operating income declined 27% principally due to write-downs on other real estate owned properties that totaled approximately $228,000 during the second quarter of 2009.
During the quarter ended June 30, 2009, the net gain on sale of residential loans declined 18% compared to the gain recognized in the quarter ended March 31, 2009. The decline resulted from a lower pricing margin on the loans originated and sold into the secondary market.
During the quarter ended June 30, 2009, non-interest expense increased approximately 2% compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2009.

Professional fees declined 33% during the quarter ended June 30, 2009 compared with the first quarter of 2009. This decline was primarily attributable to a lower level of legal fees.
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. However, we believe that non-GAAP reporting, giving effect to the adjustments shown in the reconciliations provided below, provides meaningful information and therefore we use it to supplement our GAAP information. 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 FDIC deposit insurance premium expenses during the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 2009 that substantially exceeded the levels of FDIC deposit insurance premium expense during the comparable periods in 2008, primarily due to industry-wide increases assessed by the FDIC to insured banks. While the Company believes that the 2009 levels of FDIC deposit insurance expense incurred by the Company are likely to continue in future periods, the Company believes that excluding the after-tax effects of this increased level of premium expense will provide investors with a basis to compare the Company's core operating results in 2009 as compared to 2008 without the material distortions caused by this external industry-wide factor.
