Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis Declares Dividend and Reports Second Quarter 2013 Financial Results

INDIANAPOLIS, July 29, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- On July 29, 2013, the Board of Directors of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis ("FHLBI") declared dividends on Class B-1 and Class B-2 capital stock at annualized rates of 3.50% and 2.80%, respectively. These dividends will be paid in cash on July 30, 2013.

"Our strong financial results have again allowed us to both add to retained earnings and declare this dividend," stated our new President-CEO, Cindy L. Konich, who was appointed by our board of directors effective July 22, 2013. "Our financial strength helps to assure our members that they can continue to rely on us to meet their funding needs, provide a secondary market for their mortgage loan sales and support their affordable housing and community development initiatives."

Net Income for the second quarter of 2013 was $69.7 million. The increase of $36.5 million compared to the same period in 2012 was primarily due to unrealized gains on hedging activities and a net realized gain on the sale of private-label mortgage-backed securities. Net Interest Income After Provision for Credit Losses increased by $2.9 million or 5% in the second quarter of 2013, compared to the same period in 2012, due to higher prepayment fees on Advances.

Net Income for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was $109.1 million. The increase of $34.5 million compared to the same period in 2012 was primarily due to a net realized gain on the sale of private-label mortgage-backed securities and unrealized gains on hedging activities. Net Interest Income After Provision for Credit Losses increased by $4.8 million or 4% in the six months ended June 30, 2013, compared to the same period in 2012, due to a net reduction in the allowance for credit losses and higher prepayment fees on Advances.

Total Assets at June 30, 2013 were $39.9 billion, a net decrease of $1.3 billion or 3% compared to December 31, 2012. Advances outstanding totaled $19.1 billion. The net increase of 5% compared to December 31, 2012 was attributable to higher Advances to our insurance company members, partially offset by lower Advances to our depository members. Mortgage Loans Held for Portfolio totaled $6.2 billion. The net increase of 3% compared to December 31, 2012 was attributable to purchases of mortgage loans under our MPP Advantage program and participation interests purchased from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Topeka under our Mortgage Partnership Finance^® program. Investments totaled $14.5 billion. The net decrease of 14% compared to December 31, 2012 was primarily attributable to a managed reduction in short-term investments.

Consolidated Obligations at June 30, 2013 totaled $35.5 billion. The net decrease of $800 million or 2% compared to December 31, 2012 was primarily attributable to lower funding needs.

Total Capital at June 30, 2013 was $2.3 billion. The increase of $132.4 million or 6% during the six months ended June 30, 2013 consisted of a net increase in Capital Stock of $38.0 million, a net increase in Retained Earnings of $80.4 million, and a favorable change in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) of $14.0 million, primarily due to an increase in the fair value of OTTI Available-for-Sale securities, partially offset by the reclassification of the net realized gains on the sale of securities.

At June 30, 2013, Total Regulatory Capital was $2.6 billion. The decrease of $76.6 million or 3% compared to December 31, 2012 was due to a repurchase of $250 million of excess stock, which was classified as Mandatorily Redeemable Capital Stock. Our regulatory capital-to-assets ratio at June 30, 2013 was 6.5%, which exceeds all applicable regulatory capital requirements.

All amounts referenced above and in the following table are unaudited. More detailed information about our financial results for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2013 will be included in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which we intend to file in mid-August.
