Evansville, Ind. – On Monday, Old National Bancorp (the “Company” or “Old National”) (NASDAQ: ONB) reported 3rd quarter 2015 net income of $37.7 million, or $.33 per share. These reported quarterly results compare to net income of $26.2 million in the 2nd quarter of 2015 and $29.1 million recorded in the 3rd quarter of 2014.
Included in 3rd quarter 2015 results were $15.4 million in net pre-tax gains as well as $2.0 million in pre-tax charges relating to several strategic initiatives. These initiatives include branch sales and consolidations and integration activity. Excluding the impact of these items, Old National would have reported net income of $29.4 million, or $.26 per share. In addition, the Durbin Amendment to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 became effective for Old National beginning July 1, 2015, resulting in a 3rd quarter decline in interchange income of $2.7 million.
Also today the Company announced its quarterly cash dividend of $.12 per share. The dividend is payable December 15, 2015, to shareholders of record on December 1, 2015. For purposes of broker trading, the ex-date of the cash dividend is November 27, 2015.
“This was a quarter that saw us continue to execute successfully on our organic growth strategy,” said President & CEO Bob Jones. “Our loan portfolio saw continued growth, along with excellent credit metrics. We believe this, along with the reduction in our expenses, positions us well for 2016 and beyond.”
Committed to our Strategic Imperatives and 2015 Initiatives
Old National’s continued steady performance and strong credit and capital positions can be attributed to the Company’s unwavering commitment to the three strategic imperatives that have guided Old National for 10 years:
1. Strengthen the risk profile; 2. Enhance management discipline; and 3. Achieve consistent quality earnings.
Guided by these three strategic imperatives, Old National’s primary initiatives for 2015 are: 1. Continue to grow organic revenue; 2. Improve operating leverage; and 3. Prudent use of capital, all while maintaining a strong credit culture.
Grow Organic Revenue
Balance Sheet and Net Interest Margin
Impacting Old National’s balance sheet in the 3rd quarter were the completion of two sales, totaling 17 banking centers, $193.6 million in loans and $555.8 million in deposits. These sales were both completed on August 14, 2015.
At September 30, 2015, total period-end loans, including loans held for sale, decreased $117.1 million to $6.867 billion from $6.984 billion at June 30, 2015. This decline is attributable to the banking center sales discussed in the preceding paragraph. Excluding the impact of these banking center sales and the change in covered loans, Old National had organic loan growth of $98.0 million, or 5.6%, in the 3rd quarter. The Louisville, Kentucky market, including the Company’s new Lexington office, the Terre Haute & Lafayette, Indiana market and the Kalamazoo, Michigan market were the best producing regions, increasing $37.8 million, $14.7 million and $11.2 million, respectively, over June 30, 2015, loan balances.
Total core deposits at September 30, 2015, including demand and interest-bearing deposits, decreased $201.7 million to $8.561 billion, compared to the $8.763 billion at June 30, 2015. This decline is attributable to the banking center sales discussed above. Excluding the impact of these banking center sales, Old National’s deposits grew $354.1 million in the 3rd quarter.
Net interest income in the 3rd quarter of 2015 totaled $97.1 million compared to $92.1 million in the 2nd quarter of 2015, and $108.4 million in the 3rd quarter of 2014. Net interest income on a fully taxable equivalent basis was $102.1 million for the 3rd quarter of 2015 and represented a net interest margin on total average earning assets of 3.94%. These results compare to net interest income on a fully taxable equivalent basis of $96.9 million and a margin of 3.75% in the 2nd quarter of 2015. In the 3rd quarter of 2014, Old National reported net interest income on a fully taxable equivalent basis of $112.9 million and a margin of 4.78%. Refer to Tables A, B and C for Non-GAAP taxable equivalent reconciliations.
As part of net interest income, Old National recorded $20.6 million, or an 80 basis point contribution to net interest margin, in accretion income in the 3rd quarter of 2015 related to purchase accounting discounts from various acquisitions. Total accretion income in the 2nd quarter of 2015 and the 3rd quarter of 2014 reported by Old National was $15.6 million, or a 60 basis point net interest margin contribution, and $34.3 million, or a 146 basis point net interest margin contribution, respectively. Excluding accretion income, the core net interest margin was 3.14%, 3.15% and 3.32%, for the 3rd quarter of 2015, the 2nd quarter of 2015 and the 3rd quarter of 2014, respectively.
Fees, Service Charges and Other Revenue
Total fees, service charges and other revenue represent an important component of Old National’s revenue stream and amounted to $58.8 million for the 3rd quarter of 2015. This compares to $54.4 million in the 2nd quarter of 2015 and $31.7 million in the 3rd quarter of 2014. Included in the 3rd quarter of 2015 is a $15.4 million net gain relating to the branch sales. The current quarter also contained a $6.6 million unfavorable change in the indemnification asset relating to the 2011 FDIC-assisted acquisition of Integra Bank, compared to unfavorable changes of $1.5 million and $19.1 million recorded in the 2nd quarter of 2015 and the 3rd quarter of 2014, respectively. In addition, the Durbin Amendment to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 became effective for Old National beginning July 1, 2015, resulting in a 3rd quarter decline in interchange income of $2.7 million.
Improve Operating Leverage
Old National recorded $102.6 million of total noninterest expenses in the 3rd quarter of 2015 compared to $109.7 million in the 2nd quarter of 2015 and $100.0 million recorded in the 3rd quarter of 2014. Included in 3rd quarter of 2015 are $2.0 million pre-tax charges relating to the Company’s strategic initiatives described on page 1 of this release. This compares to $5.5 million in similar charges recorded in the 2nd quarter of 2015. Also impacting year-over-year comparisons are the operational costs associated with the United, LSB and Founders acquisitions, which closed in July and November of 2014, and January of 2015, respectively, adding 27 branches to the Old National franchise. As of September 30, 2015, Old National has 164 branches throughout its franchise.
Prudent Use of Capital

Old National repurchased .7 million shares of stock in the open market during the 3rd quarter of 2015 and has .3 million shares remaining under the current authorization.

Maintain a Strong Credit Culture
Old National recorded provision expense of $.2 million and had net recoveries of $.9 million in the 3rd quarter of 2015. These results compare to $2.3 million in provision expense and net charge-offs of $1.0 million, and a provision expense of $2.6 million and net charge-offs of $.5 million, in the 2nd quarter of 2015 and the 3rd quarter of 2014, respectively. Net recoveries for the 3rd quarter of 2015 were .05% of average total loans on an annualized basis, compared to net charge-offs of .06% of average total loans in the 2nd quarter of 2015 and net charge-offs of .03% of average total loans in the 3rd quarter of 2014. On a year-to-date basis, Old National reported net recoveries of $.9 million and recorded provision expense of $2.4 million.
