EX-99.1 3 firstcapitalex9910-03.txt 1 EXHIBIT 99.1 FIRST CAPITAL, INC. REPORTS 7% INCREASE IN QUARTERLY EARNINGS Corydon, Indiana--(BUSINESS WIRE)--October 21, 2003. First Capital, Inc. (NASDAQ: FCAP - news), the holding company for First Harrison Bank (the "Bank"), today reported net income of $886,000 or $0.32 per diluted share for the quarter ended September 30, 2003. This represents an increase of 7% compared to $829,000 or $0.33 per diluted share for the quarter ended September 30, 2002. The increase in net income was provided by increases in net interest income after provision for loan losses and noninterest income, partially offset by an increase in noninterest expenses. Net interest income after provision for loan losses increased $573,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2003 as compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2002. Interest income increased $738,000 while interest expense decreased $45,000 when comparing the same two periods. This was partially offset by an increase of $210,000 in the provision for loan losses during the quarter ended September 30, 2003 compared to the same period in 2002. The primary factor in the increase in the provision is due to an increase of $550,000 in the amount of nonaccrual loans during the quarter ended September 30, 2003. During the same period in 2002, nonaccrual loans increased by only $7,000. Noninterest income increased $141,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2003 as compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2002. Service charges on deposits accounted for a $116,000 increase and mortgage brokerage fees increased $38,000. Noninterest expenses increased $629,000 during the quarter ended September 30, 2003 as compared to September 30, 2002. Compensation and benefits represented $331,000 of this increase. The bank has increased the staff by over 20% when comparing September 30, 2003 to September 2002 staffing levels due to the additional personnel in the three new locations; two acquired through the Hometown National Bank acquisition in March and the other being the new branch opened in Jeffersonville, Indiana in May. These new locations also contributed to a $145,000 increase in occupancy and equipment expenses. Other operating expenses increased $153,000 compared to the same period last year primarily due to increases in advertising, consulting fees and telephone and data line expenses. For the nine months ended September 30, 2003, the Company earned $2.6 million or $0.96 per diluted share compared to $2.4 million or $0.96 for the same period in 2002. Net interest income after provision for loan loss increased $1.4 million during the first nine months of 2003 compared to the same period in 2002. Interest income provided an increase of $1.7 million which was partially offset by an increase of $445,000 to the loss provision when comparing the two periods. Noninterest income increased $426,000 primarily due to an increase of $306,000 in service charges on deposits. Noninterest expenses increased by $1.5 million when compared to the same period one year ago. Compensation and benefits increased $786,000 and occupancy and equipment costs increased $377,000. Again, the primary factors contributing to these increases were the additional offices and personnel as compared to one year ago. Other operating expenses increased $383,000 when comparing the two periods. Advertising expenses accounted for $145,000 of this increase as the Bank adopted a more aggressive print and television campaign in the newly expanded areas. Total assets as of September 30, 2003 were $399.0 million compared to $308.6 million at December 31, 2002. At the time of the Hometown acquisition, Hometown National Bank had assets of $90.5 million, including gross loans receivable of $65.4 million, an allowance for loan losses of $1.1 million, nonaccrual loans of $518,000, foreclosed real estate of $80,000 and short-term investments totaling $18.2 million. Hometown deposits at the acquisition date totaled $84.7 million.
