As announced on July 10, 2018, the board of directors approved a cash dividend for the second quarter of $0.26 per share, payable on August 6, 2018, to shareholders of record as of July 25, 2018. The second quarter dividend per share represents an 18% increase over the second quarter dividend of 2017 in the amount of $0.22 per share.
Return on average total equity for the second quarter of 2018 was 16.86%, compared to 13.84% in the second quarter of 2017 and 15.82% in the linked first quarter of 2018. Return on average total equity for the first six months of 2018 was 16.35%, compared to 13.74% in the same period of 2017. Return on average assets for the second quarter of 2018 was 1.70%, compared to 1.40% in the second quarter of 2017 and 1.58% in the linked first quarter of 2018. Return on average assets for the first six months of 2018 was 1.64% compared to 1.38% in the same period of 2017. The company’s total capital as a percent of risk-weighted assets was 13.76% at June 30, 2018, compared to 13.30% at June 30, 2017 and 13.41% at March 31, 2018. The company’s tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio1 was 10.15% at June 30, 2018, compared to 10.19% at June 30, 2017 and 9.94% at March 31, 2018.
Average total loans for the second quarter of 2018 were $3.84 billion, an increase of $253.0 million, or 7%, versus $3.59 billion for the second quarter 2017. On a linked quarter basis, total average loans grew $47.5 million, or 1%, from $3.79 billion at March 31, 2018. Total loans outstanding grew $281.7 million, or 8%, from $3.58 billion as of June 30, 2017 to $3.86 billion as of June 30, 2018.
Findlay noted, “We continued to experience healthy organic loan growth in the quarter that was consistent with our pipeline expectations. At the same time, we had a significant amount of large loan repayments during the quarter in our commercial portfolio. Unanticipated factors affecting loan repayment activity during the quarter included the sale of client companies and long-term non-bank financing in the agricultural and commercial real estate portfolios. Our pipeline for the third quarter and balance of 2018 remains encouraging.”
Average total deposits for the second quarter of 2018 were $4.09 billion, an increase of $409.8 million, or 11%, versus $3.68 billion for the second quarter of 2017. Total deposits grew $319.0 million, or 9%, from $3.62 billion as of June 30, 2017 to $3.93 billion as of June 30, 2018. In addition, total core deposits, which exclude brokered deposits, increased $212.4 million, or 6%, from $3.50 billion at June 30, 2017 to $3.71 billion at June 30, 2018 due to growth in commercial deposits of $128.5 million or 16%, growth in retail deposits of $83.9 million or 6% and no change in public fund deposits.
The company’s net interest margin increased eight basis points to 3.42% for the second quarter of 2018 compared to 3.34% for the second quarter of 2017. On a linked quarter basis, the net interest margin improved by six basis points from 3.36% in the first quarter of 2018. The higher margin in the second quarter of 2018 was due to higher yields on loans, partially offset by a higher cost of funds, which was driven by the Federal Reserve Bank increasing the target Federal Funds Rate in mid-March 2018 and mid-June 2018. Net interest income increased $3.7 million, or 11%, to $37.5 million for the second quarter of 2018, versus $33.8 million in the second quarter of 2017 due to both growth in loans and deposits as well as expanding net interest margin. Net interest income increased by $7.9 million or 12% for the six months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to the first half of 2017 due to both net interest margin expansion and volume growth. The company’s net interest margin for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was 3.39% compared to 3.31% in the prior year six month period.
Findlay added, “The increases in short-term interest rates contributed to a strong increase in net interest margin due to our asset sensitive balance sheet as our loans continue to reprice more quickly than deposits. The interest rate environment also provides us with the ability to continue to be aggressive on the deposit pricing front and we are pleased with our overall deposit growth.”
The company recorded a provision for loan losses of $1.7 million in the second quarter of 2018 compared to $500,000 for the second quarter 2017 and down from $3.3 million during the linked first quarter of 2018. The company’s allowance for loan losses as of June 30, 2018 was $47.7 million compared to $44.6 million as of June 30, 2017 and $45.6 million as of March 31, 2018. The allowance for loan losses represented 1.24% of total loans as of June 30, 2018 versus 1.25% at June 30, 2017 and 1.19% as of March 31, 2018.
Net recoveries for the quarter were $379,000 versus net recoveries of $289,000 in the second quarter of 2017 and net charge offs of $4.8 million during the linked first quarter 2018. Annualized net recoveries to average loans were 0.04% for the second quarter of 2018 compared to net recoveries of 0.03% for the second quarter of 2017 and net charge-offs of 0.51% for the first quarter of 2018. On a year-to-date basis, net charge offs to average loans were 0.23% compared to net recoveries of 0.01% for the first six months of 2017.
Nonperforming assets increased $2.8 million, or 28%, to $12.9 million as of June 30, 2018 versus $10.1 million as of June 30, 2017 due to an increase in nonaccrual loans. On a linked quarter basis, nonperforming assets were $1.7 million higher than the $11.2 million reported as of March 31, 2018 primarily due to placing one commercial relationship in nonaccrual status. The ratio of nonperforming assets to total assets at June 30, 2018 increased to 0.27% from 0.23% at June 30, 2017 and increased from 0.24% at March 31, 2018.
“Overall economic conditions in our Indiana communities remain favorable. As a result, our asset quality concerns remain at very manageable levels and reflect the continued operating performance of our client base. While the agricultural sector will likely continue to face challenges in 2018, we are comfortably managing that exposure,” commented Findlay.
The company’s noninterest income increased $902,000, or 10%, to $9.7 million for the second quarter of 2018, compared to $8.8 million for the second quarter of 2017. Wealth advisory and brokerage fees increased by 21% compared to the second quarter of 2017 due to continued growth of client relationships. In addition, noninterest income was positively impacted by a 17% increase over the prior year second quarter in fee income from service charges on deposit accounts, primarily due to growth in fees from business accounts. Loan and service fees increased by 28% over the prior year second quarter and mortgage banking income increased by 16% as well.
The company’s noninterest income increased 15% to $19.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 compared to $17.1 million in the prior year period. Noninterest income was positively impacted by an 18% increase in wealth advisory and brokerage fees, as well as a 21% increase in loan and service fees, a 16% increase in service charges on deposit accounts and a 33% improvement in mortgage banking income.
The company’s noninterest expense increased $922,000, or 5%, to $20.3 million in the second quarter of 2018, compared to $19.4 million in the second quarter of 2017. Salaries and employee benefits increased primarily due to an increase to the company’s minimum hiring wage and normal merit increases. Data processing fees increased primarily due to the company’s continued investment in technology-based solutions. Corporate and business development expense decreased primarily due to a reduction in contributions as well as lower advertising expenses.
The company’s noninterest expense increased by $2.1 million or 5% to $41.5 million in the first six months of 2018 compared to $39.4 million in the prior year period. The increase was driven by salaries and employee benefits, which increased by 5% or $1.1 million, primarily due to an increase to the company’s minimum hiring wage, special bonuses paid to non-officer employees, normal merit increases and increased health insurance cost. Data processing fees increased primarily due to the company’s continued investment in technology-based solutions. Corporate and business development expense decreased primarily due to a reduction in contributions as well as lower advertising expenses.
The company’s efficiency ratio was 42.9% for the second quarter of 2018, compared to 45.4% for the second quarter of 2017 and 46.0% for the linked first quarter of 2018. The company’s efficiency ratio was 44.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2018 down from 47.5% in the prior year period due to revenue growth outpacing expense growth.
The effective tax rate for the second quarter 2018 was 20.2%, compared to 32.5% for the second quarter 2017 and reflects the effect of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, which lowered the company’s federal tax rate to 21% from 35% effective January 1, 2018. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was 17.9% compared with 30.2% in the prior year period.

| (1) | Tax exempt income was converted to a fully taxable equivalent basis at a 21 percent tax rate for 2018 and a 35 percent tax rate for 2017. The tax equivalent rate for tax exempt loans and tax exempt securities acquired after January 1, 1983 included the Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act of 1982 (“TEFRA”) adjustment applicable to nondeductible interest expenses. Taxable equivalent basis adjustments were $440,000, $409,000 and $731,000 in the three-month periods ended June 30, 2018, March 31, 2018 and June 30, 2017, respectively. | |
| (2) | Loan fees, which are immaterial in relation to total taxable loan interest income for 2018 and 2017, are included as taxable loan interest income. | |
| (3) | Nonaccrual loans are included in the average balance of taxable loans. |
(1) Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
| Tangible common equity, tangible assets, tangible book value per share and the tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio are non-GAAP financial measures calculated using GAAP amounts. Tangible common equity is calculated by excluding the balance of goodwill and other intangible assets from the calculation of stockholders’ equity, net of deferred tax. Tangible assets are calculated by excluding the balance of goodwill and other intangible assets from the calculation of total assets, net of deferred tax. Tangible book value per share is calculated by dividing tangible common equity by the number of shares outstanding. Because not all companies use the same calculation of tangible common equity and tangible assets, this presentation may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures calculated by other companies. However, management considers these measures of the company’s value including only earning assets as meaningful to an understanding of the company’s financial information. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures is provided below (dollars in thousands, except per share data). |
