LAPORTE BANCORP, INC. ANNOUNCES THIRD QUARTER 2013 EARNINGS AND
BOARD AUTHORIZATION OF STOCK REPURCHASE PLAN

LaPorte, Indiana, October 24, 2013LaPorte Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) (Nasdaq: LPSB), the holding company for The LaPorte Savings Bank (the “Bank”), today announced its Board of Directors approved a plan to repurchase up to 5%, or 310,809 shares, of the Company’s common stock. The repurchases may be carried out through open market purchases, block trades, and negotiated private transactions. Open market purchases are intended to be conducted in accordance with the limitations set forth in Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. In addition, the Company may enter into an agreement to have its shares repurchased pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The common stock may be repurchased on an ongoing basis and will be subject to the availability of stock, general market conditions, trading price of the stock, alternative uses for capital, and the Company’s financial performance. Lee A. Brady, Chief Executive Officer of LaPorte Bancorp, Inc., stated “The Board of Directors is committed to creating sustained long-term shareholder value and will continue to deploy our capital in a thoughtful and disciplined fashion.”

The Company also announced today that its reported net income totaled $868,000, or $0.15 per diluted share, for the three months ended September 30, 2013 versus $1.4 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, for the comparable period of 2012. Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 totaled $3.1 million, or $0.53 per diluted share, compared to net income of $3.3 million, or $0.56 per diluted share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2012.

Brady added, “The Company demonstrated another quarter of solid earnings during the third quarter of 2013 although interest margin compression and declines in mortgage banking activity continue to impact our operations. We continue to manage the impact that the current interest rate environment is having on our financial results.”

“The impact of the decline in residential mortgage refinance activity has been a concern throughout 2013, and a greater emphasis has been placed on growing our purchase business. In September, we opened a mortgage loan production office in St. Joseph, Michigan, and were successful in adding an experienced mortgage team whose concentration has been in the purchase market,” continued Brady. “The St. Joseph location is within a 50 mile radius of La Porte and was chosen not only for the team’s market experience but also for the market demographics. We anticipate that this office will positively impact mortgage originations in the future and plan on adding another experienced loan originator in that market by the end of the year.”

“We are also pleased to report growth in our commercial lending portfolio of $5.7 million, or 4.9%, during the third quarter of 2013 as compared to the previous linked quarter. The growth was primarily related to new multifamily commercial lending relationships. We are starting to see encouraging results from our commercial lending team,” Brady added.

Net interest income decreased $599,000, or 14.9%, to $3.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013 from $4.0 million for the prior year period. Net interest margin decreased to 3.11% for the three months ended September 30, 2013 compared to 3.69% for the prior year period. The decrease in the net interest margin was primarily attributable to a decrease in interest income on loans of $853,000 due to the low interest rate environment, as well as a decrease in average outstanding loan balances over the same time period. This decrease in loan interest income was partially offset by a decrease in interest expense on deposits and borrowings totaling $215,000. “Our margin continues to be pressured by lower rates on loans and investments, which is consistent with margin pressure throughout the industry as interest rates remain low and higher levels of liquidity continue,” noted Brady. “During the third quarter of 2013, we utilized excess liquidity to purchase $15.5 million in new investment securities when rates jumped and the yield curve steepened. We anticipate that the positive impact on our margin will be more evident during the fourth quarter and into 2014.”

Interest income decreased $814,000, or 16.0%, to $4.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013 compared to $5.1 million for the prior year period. Interest expense decreased $215,000, or 20.1%, to $855,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 compared to $1.1 million for the prior year period. Interest and fee income on the mortgage warehouse loans decreased $458,000 when compared to the prior year period primarily due to a decrease in both the average outstanding balances and the average yield on such loans. The third quarter of 2013 was impacted by the industry-wide decrease in mortgage loan originations and refinances. In addition, interest and fee income from commercial real estate loans and residential mortgage loans held in portfolio decreased $118,000 and $119,000, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2013 when compared to the prior year period due to decreases in the average outstanding balances and the average yield of such loans. Brady noted, “As previously noted, we experienced growth in commercial loans during the third quarter of 2013 from the second quarter of 2013. In addition, we have also seen an increase in consumer loans, primarily automobile loans, during the same time frame. Since much of this loan growth occurred at the end of the quarter, we anticipate that the fourth quarter of 2013 will realize the full benefits of these new originations.”
Noninterest income decreased $462,000, or 42.1%, to $635,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 from $1.1 million for the prior year period. The primary reason for the decrease in noninterest income was due to a $325,000 decrease in gain on mortgage banking activities as mortgage interest rates began to rise during the beginning of the third quarter of 2013 which slowed refinance activity. Our net gains on sales of securities decreased $117,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 when compared to the prior year period due to fewer sales when compared to the prior year period. In addition, other income decreased $158,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 compared to the prior year period primarily due to $141,000 of gains realized on the call of certain brokered deposits during the 2012 period.
Noninterest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2013 increased $92,000, or 3.3%, to $2.9 million compared to $2.8 million for the prior year period. This increase in noninterest expense was primarily due to an increase in salaries and wages expense primarily due to an increase in the officer bonus accrual compared to the prior year period, in addition to normal annual merit pay increases. The release of additional unearned ESOP shares purchased through our second step conversion completed in the fourth quarter of 2012 also contributed to the increase in salaries and wages expense during the third quarter of 2013. Partially offsetting these increases was a decrease in commission expense due to the lower volume of mortgage loan production.

Net interest income decreased $969,000, or 8.4%, to $10.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 from $11.5 million for the prior year period. Net interest margin decreased to 3.21% for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 compared to 3.58% for the prior year period. The decrease in the net interest margin was partially due to a decrease in interest income on loans of $1.8 million due to the low interest rate environment, as well as an 8.6% decrease in average outstanding loan balances over the same time period. This decrease in loan interest income was partially offset by a decrease in interest expense on deposits and borrowings totaling $861,000.





LaPorte Bancorp, Inc. - Page 7

Interest income decreased $1.8 million, or 12.2%, to $13.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 compared to $15.0 million for the prior year period. Interest expense decreased $861,000, or 25.0%, to $2.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 compared to $3.4 million for the prior year period. Interest and fee income on mortgage warehouse loans decreased $547,000 when compared to the prior year period primarily due to a decrease in both the average outstanding balances and the average yield on such loans. The third quarter of 2013 was impacted by the industry-wide decrease in mortgage originations and refinances. In addition, interest and fee income from commercial real estate loans and residential mortgage loans held in portfolio decreased $404,000 and $445,000, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 when compared to the prior year period due to decreases in the average outstanding balances and the average yield of such loans.

Noninterest income remained relatively stable at $2.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012. Noninterest income was favorably impacted by a $176,000 increase in net gains on sales of securities combined with a decrease in net losses on other assets of $153,000 due to lower write downs recorded on other real estate owned properties for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 when compared to the prior year period. Loan servicing fees increased $100,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 when compared to the prior year period due to recent increases in mortgage interest rates which reduced the provision for the valuation allowance required during 2013. Partially offsetting these increases in noninterest income was a decrease of $238,000 in gains on mortgage banking activities due to a decrease in refinance and purchase activity as mortgage rates increased at the beginning of the third quarter of 2013. In addition, other income decreased $141,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 when compared to the prior year period due to gains realized in 2012 on the call of certain brokered deposits.

Noninterest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 increased $265,000, or 3.1%, to $8.8 million compared to $8.5 million for the prior year period. This increase in noninterest expense was primarily due to an increase in salaries and wages expense of $189,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 when compared to the prior year period due to an increase in the officer bonus accrual compared to the prior year period, normal annual merit pay increases, and increased expense related to the release of additional unearned ESOP shares which were purchased through our second step conversion completed during the fourth quarter of 2012. The increase in salaries and wages expense was partially offset by a decrease in commission expense due to lower volume of mortgage loan production and an increase in deferred lending costs from new loan originations during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 when compared to the prior year period. Data processing expense increased $71,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 when compared to the prior year period due to processing expenses related to the establishment of a real estate investment trust and annual fees related to the Bank’s mobile banking service. The real estate investment trust company was established in January 2013 and the Bank’s mobile banking service was implemented beginning in June 2012.

Asset quality metrics continued to improve during the first nine months of 2013. Total nonperforming loans decreased $2.3 million, or 27.5%, to $6.1 million at September 30, 2013 compared to $8.4 million at December 31, 2012. At September 30, 2013, nonperforming loans to total loans ratio decreased to 2.18% from 2.63% at December 31, 2012. Total nonperforming assets decreased $1.6 million, or 17.1%, to $7.7 million at September 30, 2013 from $9.3 million at December 31, 2012. At September 30, 2013, nonperforming assets to total assets ratio decreased to 1.54% from 1.88% at December 31, 2012. The allowance for loan losses to nonperforming loans increased to 69.7% at September 30, 2013 compared to 51.5% at December 31, 2012.

Provision for loan losses for the three months ended September 30, 2013 decreased to $100,000 from $353,000 for the prior year period. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, provision for loan losses decreased to $206,000 from $884,000 for the prior year period. The decrease in provision amounts for both time periods was primarily due




LaPorte Bancorp, Inc. - Page 8

to a decrease in the total outstanding gross loan balances when compared to December 31, 2012 and a continued improvement in asset quality metrics. Gross loans decreased, $40.2 million, or 12.6%, to $277.8 million at September 30, 2013 compared to $318.0 million at December 31, 2012. The provision amounts recorded reflect management’s continuing assessment of the credit quality of the Company’s loan portfolio, which is impacted by various trends, including nonperforming loans, classified assets, charge-off ratios, delinquencies, and current economic conditions. The allowance for loan losses to total loans ratio increased to 1.52% at September 30, 2013 compared to 1.35% at December 31, 2012. The increase in the allowance for loan losses to total loans ratio was due to both the decrease in gross loans and an increase in specific reserve allocations of $417,000 when comparing balances at September 30, 2013 to December 31, 2012.

Total assets at September 30, 2013 increased $6.9 million, or 1.4%, to $499.6 million compared to $492.8 million at December 31, 2012. Total deposits at September 30, 2013 decreased $13.5 million, or 3.9%, to $335.4 million from $349.0 million at December 31, 2012 due to a decrease in customer time deposits of $17.8 million which were partially offset by increases in interest-bearing checking and savings accounts. Total shareholders’ equity decreased $654,000 to $83.4 million at September 30, 2013, compared to $84.1 million at December 31, 2012 primarily due to a $3.4 million decrease in accumulated other comprehensive income as unrealized securities gains decreased as a result of the increase in interest rates during the third quarter of 2013. This decrease was partially offset by a $2.4 million increase in retained earnings. At September 30, 2013, the Bank was considered well capitalized and exceeded its applicable regulatory capital requirements with Tier 1 leverage, Tier 1 risk-based capital, and total risk-based capital ratios of 14.2%, 20.0%, and 21.2%, respectively.
