ISBA Announces 1st Quarter Earnings
Mt. Pleasant, Michigan, April 28, 2011 Richard J. Barz, Chief Executive Officer of Isabella Bank
Corporation (ISBA), announced today that the Corporations net income for the first three months of
2011 was $2.32 million, a 14.48% increase over the same period in 2010. The Corporation paid a
$0.19 per share cash dividend in the first quarter of 2011, a 5.5% increase over the dividend paid
in the fourth quarter of 2010. Based on the Corporations average stock price of $18.07 for the
month of March 2011, the annualized dividend yield was 4.21%.
As of March 31, 2011, the Corporations total assets were $1.26 billion, a 2.97% increase compared
to December 31, 2010. The majority of this growth was funded by a 5.23% increase of in-market
deposits. Total assets under management, which includes loans sold and serviced, trust assets, and
assets managed by the Corporations Raymond James brokerage operations, were $1.88 billion.
The Corporations asset quality remains strong as evidenced by the relatively low percentage of
total assets classified as nonperforming as of March 31, 2011 (0.66%). For comparison, the
average percentage of nonperforming assets for all banks in the state of Michigan was 3.57% for the
period ended December 31, 2010. As of March 31, 2011, the Corporation had $2.17 in loan loss
reserve for every dollar of nonperforming loans, an outstanding coverage ratio. In addition, the
Corporations risk based capital to risk adjusted total assets ratio of 13.78% at the end of the
first quarter of 2011 is considered to be exceptionally strong when compared to the 8.0% required
to be categorized as adequately capitalized under the Federal Reserve Boards risk based capital
rules.
