GERMAN AMERICAN BANCORP, INC. (GABC) REPORTS 5TH CONSECUTIVE QUARTER OF RECORD EARNINGS.
 
Jasper, Indiana - May 1, 2012 -- German American Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ: GABC) reported record quarterly earnings for the first quarter of 2012, marking the fifth consecutive quarter of record earnings by the Company.  German American’s first quarter 2012 net income of $5.6 million, or $0.44 per share, represented an increase of approximately 20% above the net income of $4.6 million, or $0.37 per share, reported in the first quarter of 2011.

As compared to the same quarter prior year results, this quarter’s record earnings were positively affected by a $1.5 million increase in net interest income, driven primarily by $120 million of organic deposit growth within the Company’s banking operations over the course of the past year. This level of deposit growth equates to approximately 8% annual growth of the Company’s total deposits.  Additionally, the Company reduced the level of its non-interest operating expenses by $1.3 million during the current year first quarter from the expense levels recorded during the first quarter of last year, with the majority of the decrease related to reduced data processing expenses related to the acquisition of American Community Bancorp in the first quarter of last year.

Further enhancing the level of the Company’s first quarter 2012 earnings was a $600 thousand reduction in the amount of provision for loan loss from that booked during the prior year’s first quarter.  This reduction in the level of loan loss provision was related to an improvement during the first quarter of this year of an already strong level of asset quality within the Company’s loan portfolio.  The Company’s level of non-interest income declined by $1.2 million from that earned in the first quarter of the prior year, largely due to a recognition of a $1.0 million security gain booked during the first quarter of last year related to the acquisition accounting treatment of the existing equity ownership position held by German American in American Community Bancorp at the time of its acquisition.

Commenting on the Company’s continued record quarterly earnings performance, Mark A. Schroeder, Chairman & CEO, stated, “The combination of strong organic deposit growth, a continuation of our historically strong level of asset quality within our loan portfolio, and well controlled operating expenses has resulted in our reporting this fifth consecutive quarter of record earnings.  Obviously, we wouldn’t have been able to achieve this without the confidence of our depositors, the financial strength of our borrowing clients, and the commitment of our team to operate in an extremely efficient manner.”

Schroeder continued, “We’re extremely pleased to be able to deliver this level of exceptional earnings performance, are extremely grateful for our stable and growing client base who entrust their business to German American, and are extremely proud of our team of dedicated financial professionals who work tirelessly every day to deliver upon our commitment to our customers and our shareholders to offer the very best in financial products and services throughout our Southern Indiana footprint in a sound and secure manner.”

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 May 20, 2012 to shareholders of record as of May 10, 2012.

Balance Sheet Highlights

Total assets for the Company increased to $1.910 billion at March 31, 2012, representing an increase $36.8 million compared with year-end 2011.  The increase during the first quarter of 2012 was attributable to continued growth of the Company’s core deposit base.

The Company’s investment portfolio increased by approximately $68.6 million to $586.1 million during the first quarter of 2012.  Much of this increase was the result of re-investment of funds early during the first quarter of 2012 following a security sale transaction late in the fourth quarter of 2011.  Federal funds sold and other short-term investments increased $53.9 million.  This was largely the result of a decline in loan balances outstanding and an increased level of deposits.
 
March 31, 2012 loans outstanding decreased by $27.0 million, or approximately 10% on an annualized basis, compared with year end 2011, and were relatively flat to March 31, 2011 total loans outstanding. The reduction in loans during the first quarter of 2012 compared with year end was largely related to a seasonal decline in agricultural loans and to a lesser extent a reduction in total consumer loans.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2012, net interest income totaled $16,612,000 representing an increase of $205,000, or 1%, from the quarter ended December 31, 2011 net interest income of $16,407,000 and an increase of $1,505,000, or approximately 10%, compared with the first quarter 2011 net interest income of $15,107,000.  The tax equivalent net interest margin for the quarter ended March 31, 2012 was 3.88% compared to 3.76% in the fourth quarter of 2011 and 3.83% in the first quarter of 2011.  The increased net interest margin in the first quarter 2012 compared with the fourth quarter of 2011 was attributable to the accretion of loan discounts on certain acquired loans.  Accretion contributed approximately 18 basis points on an annualized basis to the net interest margin in the first quarter of 2012 compared to approximately 7 basis points during the fourth quarter of 2011.  Also contributing to the improved net interest margin was a lowered cost of funds due primarily to a lower cost of deposits during the first quarter of 2012 compared with the fourth quarter of 2011.

The provision for loan loss totaled $690,000 during the quarter ended March 31, 2012 representing a decline of $2,210,000 or 76% from the fourth quarter of 2011 and a decline of $610,000 or 47% from the first quarter of 2011. During the first quarter of 2012, the provision for loan loss represented approximately 25 basis points of average loans on an annualized basis while net charge-offs represented approximately 8 basis points of average loans on an annualized basis.
 
During the first quarter of 2012, non-interest income totaled $4,801,000, a decrease of $1,839,000, or 28%, compared with the fourth quarter of 2011, and a decrease of $1,213,000, or 20%, compared with the first quarter of 2011.  The decline in the first quarter of 2012 as compared with both the fourth quarter of 2011 and first quarter of 2011 was largely attributable to a lower level of gain on sale of securities.

Trust and investment product fees increased $112,000, or 19%, in the first quarter of 2012 compared with fourth quarter of 2011 and $232,000, or 50%, compared to the first quarter of 2011.  The increase compared to fourth quarter of 2011 was largely due to increased revenue generated through retail brokerage operations while the increase compared to the first quarter of 2011 was attributable to both increased trust revenues and brokerage revenues.

Insurance revenues increased $172,000, or 14%, during the first quarter of 2012 compared with the fourth quarter of 2011 and declined $658,000, 32%, compared with the first quarter of 2011.  The increase during the first quarter of 2012 compared with the fourth quarter of 2011 was largely seasonal fluctuations in the collection of premiums on larger commercial accounts while the decline compared to the first quarter of 2011 was the result of a lower level of contingency revenue.  Contingency revenue during the first quarter of 2012 totaled $52,000 compared with $784,000 during the first quarter of 2011.  The fluctuation in contingency revenue during 2012 and 2011 is a normal course of business type of variance and is reflective of claims and loss experience with insurance carriers that the Company represents through its property and casualty insurance agency.

Net gains on sales of loans decreased $17,000, or 2%, during the first quarter of 2012 compared with the fourth quarter of 2011 and increased $304,000, or 74%, compared with the first quarter of 2011.  Loan sales totaled $54.1 million during the first quarter of 2012, compared with $55.9 million during the fourth quarter of 2011 and $36.5 million during the first quarter of 2011.

The net gain on sale of securities was limited during the first quarter of 2012.  During the fourth quarter of 2011 the Company realized a net gain on the sale of securities of $1,979,000 related to the sale of approximately $60.1 million of securities.  The Company realized a gain of $1,045,000 during the first quarter of 2011 related to the acquisition accounting treatment of the existing equity ownership position the Company held in American Community Bancorp at the time of acquisition.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2012, non-interest expense totaled $12,593,000, a decrease of $43,000, or 0.3%, compared with the fourth quarter of 2011, and a decrease of $1,277,000, or 9%, compared with the first quarter of 2011.

The Company’s FDIC deposit insurance assessments increased $15,000, or 5% during the first quarter of 2012 compared with the fourth quarter of 2011 and decreased $217,000, or 42%, compared with first quarter of 2011.  The decline in comparison to the first quarter 2011 was attributable to changes in the deposit insurance assessment calculation which became effective in the second quarter 2011 related to the Dodd Frank Act.

Data processing fees declined $157,000, or 58%, during the quarter ended March 31, 2012 compared with the fourth quarter 2011 and declined $991,000 or 90% compared with the first quarter 2011.  The decline in both periods was largely related to the resolution of a contractual dispute during the first quarter of 2012 related to the acquisition of American Community Bancorp. An expense for the cancellation of a data processing contract was recorded in the first quarter of 2011, and upon resolution of the contractual dispute, a portion of that accrued expense was reversed in the first quarter of 2012.
