EX-99.1 2 firstcapital8kapr24-09ex99.txt FIRST CAPITAL, INC. REPORTS FIRST QUARTER EARNINGS Corydon, Indiana--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 24, 2009. First Capital, Inc. (NASDAQ: FCAP - news), the holding company for First Harrison Bank (the "Bank"), today reported net income of $803,000 or $0.29 per diluted share for the quarter ended March 31, 2009, compared to $899,000 or $0.32 per diluted share for the quarter ended March 31, 2008. The decrease in earnings is primarily due to an increase in noninterest expense and a decrease in noninterest income. Net interest income after provision for loan losses decreased $18,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2009 as compared to the same prior year period. Interest income decreased $711,000 when comparing the periods as the average tax-equivalent yield of interest-earning assets decreased from 6.37% in the three-month period ended March 31, 2008 to 5.76% during the same period in 2009. Interest expense decreased $893,000 when comparing the periods as the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased from 3.35% to 2.42%. These decreases in the average tax-equivalent yield on interest-earning assets and average cost of interest-bearing liabilities were primarily due to the Federal Reserve's Open Market Committee lowering the federal funds rate by 275 basis points from March 2008 to December 2008. The provision for loan losses increased from $225,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2008 to $425,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2009. This increase reflects the impact of deteriorating general economic conditions and management's assessment of the inherent credit risk with respect to unclassified loans giving consideration to an increase in net charge-offs. The 2009 provision for loan losses was also impacted by deterioration of collateral values for collateral dependent nonperforming loans. Noninterest income decreased $72,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared to the same period in 2008. Service charges on deposit accounts decreased $65,000 when comparing the two periods. Noninterest expense increased $149,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2008. Deposit insurance premiums and occupancy expenses increased $80,000 and $38,000, respectively, when comparing the two periods. The increase in deposit insurance premiums is due to the Bank exhausting its one-time FDIC credit assessment on deposits in existence as of December 31, 1996 and an overall increase in assessment rates. The increase in occupancy expense can be attributed to the opening of a new office in Edwardsville, Indiana, in October 2008 and overall increases in occupancy expenses. Total assets as of March 31, 2009 were $454.0 million compared to $458.6 million at December 31, 2008. The primary factor behind the decrease in assets was a $6.1 million decrease in gross loans receivable. The funds generated from loan pay downs were primarily used to pay off Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings, which decreased $3.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2009. Nonperforming assets (consisting of nonaccrual loans, accruing loans 90 days or more past due and foreclosed real estate) increased from $6.4 million at December 31, 2008 to $7.3 million at March 31, 2009. First Harrison Bank currently has twelve offices in the Indiana communities of Corydon, Edwardsville, Greenville, Floyds Knobs, Hardinsburg, Palmyra, New Albany, New Salisbury, Jeffersonville and Salem. The Bank also has begun construction on a new office in Lanesville, Indiana, which is expected to open in June 2009. Access to First Harrison Bank accounts, including online banking and electronic bill payments, is available anywhere with Internet access through the Bank's website at www.firstharrison.com. First Harrison Financial Services, a division of the Bank, offers non-FDIC insured investments to compliment the Bank's offering of traditional banking products and services.
