Horizon Bancorp and Subsidiaries

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Table Dollar Amounts in Thousands, Except Per Share Data)

Note 1 — Accounting Policies

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Horizon Bancorp (Horizon) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Horizon Bank, N.A. (Bank). All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated. The results of operations for the periods ended June 30, 2006 and June 30, 2005, are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year of 2006 or 2005. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of Horizon’s management, necessary to fairly present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of Horizon for the periods presented. Those adjustments consist only of normal recurring adjustments.

Certain information and note disclosures normally included in Horizon’s annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in Horizon’s Form 10-K annual report for 2005 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The consolidated balance sheet of Horizon as of December 31, 2005, has been derived from the audited balance sheet of Horizon as of that date.

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. In August 2002, substantially all of the participants in Horizon’s Stock Option and Stock Appreciation Rights Plans voluntarily entered into an agreement with Horizon to cap the value of their stock appreciation rights (“SARS”) at $14.67 per share and cease any future vesting of the SARS. These agreements with option holders make it more advantageous to exercise an option rather than a SAR whenever Horizon’s stock price exceeds $14.67 per share, therefore the option becomes potentially dilutive at $14.67 per share or higher. The number of shares used in the computation of basic earnings per share is 3,183,870 and 3,066,512 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2006 and 2005. The number of shares used in the computation of diluted earnings per share is 3,209,294 and 3,157,731 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2006 and 2005. The number shares used in the computation of basic earnings per share is 3,163,159 and 3,041,698 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2006 and 2005. The number of shares used in the computation of diluted earnings per share is 3,205,780 and 3,149,164 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2006 and 2005

Horizon has share-based employee compensation plans, which are described in the notes to the financial statements included in the December 31, 2005, Annual Report to Shareholders.

Effective January 1, 2006, Horizon adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment (“SFAS 123(R)”). SFAS 123(R) addresses all forms of share-based payment awards, including shares under employee stock purchase plans, stock options, restricted stock and stock appreciation rights. SFAS 123(R) requires all share-based payments to be recognized as expense, based upon their fair values, in the financial statements over the vesting period of the awards. Horizon has elected the modified prospective application and, as a result, has recorded approximately $15 thousand in compensation expense relating to vesting of stock options less estimated forfeitures for the six month period ended June 30, 2006. Certain disclosures required by SFAS 123(R) have been omitted due to their immaterial nature. Prior to adoption of SFAS 123(R), unearned compensation related to restricted stock awards was classified as a separate component of stockholders’ equity. Upon the adoption of SFAS 123(R) on January 1, 2006, the balance in unearned compensation was reclassified to additional paid-in capital.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Table Dollar Amounts in Thousands, Except Per Share Data)

Prior to the adoptions of SFAS 123(R), Horizon accounted for these plans under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations. No stock-based employee compensation cost was reflected in net income, as all options granted under the plan had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the grant date. The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if Horizon had applied the fair value provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, to stock-based employee compensation.

Proceeds from sales of securities available for sale during the six months ended June 30, 2006, were $70,197,000. Gross gains of $1,167,000 and gross losses of $1,416,000 were recognized on these sales. There were no sales of securities available for sale during the six months ending June 30, 2005.

Certain investments in debt securities are reported in the financial statements at an amount less than their historical cost. Total fair value of these investments at June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, was $205,472,000 and $226,292,000, respectively, which is approximately 85% and 82% of Horizon’s available-for-sale investment portfolio. These declines primarily resulted from recent increases in market interest rates. Based on evaluation of available evidence, including recent changes in market interest rates, credit rating information and information obtained from regulatory filings, management believes the declines in fair value for these securities are temporary. Should the impairment of any of these securities become other than temporary, the cost basis of the investment will be reduced and the resulting loss recognized in net income in the period the other-than-temporary impairment is identified.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations
For the Three and Six Months Periods Ended June 30, 2006

Forward–Looking Statements

This report contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, with respect to Horizon Bancorp (“Horizon” or “Company”) and Horizon Bank, N.A. (“Bank”). Horizon intends such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Reform Act of 1995, and is including this statement for the purposes of these safe harbor provisions. Forward-looking statements, which are based on certain assumptions and describe future plans, strategies and expectations of Horizon, are generally identifiable by use of the words “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “project” or similar expressions. Horizon’s ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Factors which could have a material adverse effect on Horizon’s future activities and operating results include, but are not limited to:

	•		credit risk: the risk that loan customers or other parties will be unable to perform their contractual obligations;

	•		market risk: the risk that changes in market rates and prices will adversely affect our financial condition or results of operation;

Introduction

The purpose of this discussion is to focus on Horizon’s financial condition, changes in financial condition and the results of operations in order to provide a better understanding of the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere herein. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the related notes.

Overview

Net income increased from the first quarter of 2006, and also improved from the first six months of 2005. The major factor causing the improved performance from the prior year was the income generated from the additional assets and deposits acquired through the acquisition of Alliance Bank. This acquisition closed on June 10, 2005. The additional assets caused an increase in net interest income despite a decline in net interest margin. Noninterest expense, particularly salaries and employee benefits, were held in check. Noninterest income was impacted by a loss taken on the sale of securities to restructure the investment portfolio and a decline in residential mortgage activity which impacted gain on sale of loans.

Critical Accounting Policies

The notes to the consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 on Form 10-K contain a summary of the Company’s significant accounting policies and are presented on pages 44-48 of Form 10-K for 2005. Certain of these policies are important to the portrayal of the Company’s financial condition, since they require management to make difficult, complex or subjective judgments, some of which may relate to matters that are inherently uncertain. Management has identified the allowance for loan losses as a critical accounting policy.

An allowance for loan losses is maintained to absorb loan losses inherent in the loan portfolio. The determination of the allowance for loan losses is a critical accounting policy that involves management’s ongoing quarterly assessments of the probable estimated losses inherent in the loan portfolio. Horizon’s methodology for assessing the appropriateness of the allowance consists of several key elements, which include the formula allowance, specific allowances for identified problem loans, and the unallocated allowance.

The formula allowance is calculated by applying loss factors to outstanding loans and certain unused commitments. Loss factors are based on historical loss experience and may be adjusted for significant factors that, in management’s judgment, affect the collectibility of the portfolio as of the evaluation date.

Specific allowances are established in cases where management has identified significant conditions or circumstances related to a credit that management believes indicate the probability that a loss has been incurred in excess of the amount determined by the application of the formula allowance. The unallocated allowance is based upon management’s evaluation of various conditions, the effects of which are not directly measured in the determination of the formula and specific allowances. The evaluation of the inherent loss with respect to these conditions is subject to a higher degree of uncertainty because they are not identified with specific credits. The conditions evaluated in connection with the unallocated allowance may include factors such as local, regional, and national economic conditions and forecasts, and adequacy of loan policies and internal controls, the experience of the lending staff, bank regulatory examination results, and changes in the composition of the portfolio.

Horizon considers the allowance for loan losses of $8.843 million adequate to cover losses inherent in the loan portfolio as of June 30, 2006. However, no assurance can be given that Horizon will not, in any particular period, sustain loan losses that are significant in relation to the amount reserved, or that subsequent evaluations of the loan portfolio, in light of factors then prevailing, including economic conditions and management’s ongoing quarterly assessments of the portfolio, will not require increases in the allowance for loan losses.

Financial Condition

Liquidity

The Bank maintains a stable base of core deposits provided by long standing relationships with consumers and local businesses. These deposits are the principal source of liquidity for Horizon. Other sources of liquidity for Horizon include earnings, loan repayment, investment security sales and maturities, sale of real estate loans and borrowing relationships with correspondent banks, including the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB). During the six months ended June 30, 2006, cash and cash equivalents decreased by approximately $15.8 million. At June 30, 2006, in addition to liquidity provided from the normal operating, funding, and investing activities of Horizon, the Bank has available approximately $143 million in unused credit lines with various money center banks including the FHLB.

There have been no other material changes in the liquidity of Horizon from December 31, 2005 to June 30, 2006.

Capital Resources

As a condition of approval for the Alliance acquisition, the OCC required Horizon Bank to maintain regulatory capital ratios at 100 basis points above the “well capitalized” minimums. The capital resources of Horizon and the Bank exceed the OCC required levels at June 30, 2006. Stockholders’ equity totaled $54.627 million as of June 30, 2006 compared to $53.530 million as of December 31, 2005. The increase in stockholders’ equity during the six months ended June 30, 2006 is primarily the result of net income, net of dividends declared and the amortization of unearned compensation. The increase was partially offset by a decline in the market value of Horizon’s investment securities available for sale. At June 30, 2006, the ratio of stockholders’ equity to assets was 4.82% compared to 4.75% at December 31, 2005.

During the course of a periodic examination by the Bank’s regulators that commenced in February 2003, the examination personnel raised the issue of whether the Bank’s mortgage warehouse loans should be treated as other loans rather than home mortgages for call report purposes. If these loans are treated as other loans for regulatory reporting purposes, it would change the calculations for risk-based capital and reduce the Bank’s risk-based capital ratios. Management believes that it has properly characterized the loans in its mortgage warehouse loan portfolio for risk-based capital purposes, but there is no assurance that the regulators will concur with that determination. Should the call report classification of the loans be changed, Horizon and the Bank would still be categorized as well capitalized at June 30, 2006.

There have been no other material changes in Horizon’s capital resources from December 31, 2005 to June 30, 2006.

Material Changes in Financial Condition – June 30, 2006 compared to December 31, 2005

During the first six months of 2006, investment securities decreased approximately $32.9 million and loans outstanding increased approximately $61.8 million. In the first half of 2006, Horizon sold approximately $70 million of low yielding investment securities, recognizing a loss on the sale of $249 thousand. The proceeds from the sale will be used to reduce short-term debt, fund anticipated loan growth and reinvest in higher yielding securities. This transaction is anticipated to have a positive impact on net income in 2006. With the exception of commercial loans, loans showed strong growth since December 31, 2005. Growth came in real estate loans, where the Bank’s loan customers continued to favor adjustable rate mortgages, which are held in the Bank’s portfolio. While this caused growth in the loan portfolio, it had a negative impact on gain on sale of loans, as fewer loans are available for sale. Mortgage warehouse loans increased as mortgage loan activity increased in general due to the seasonality of mortgage lending. Installment loans grew due to increased indirect volume and the purchase of approximately $10 million of automobile loans from a third party. This growth was offset by a decline in commercial loans caused by unanticipated payoffs.

Premises and equipment increased approximately $1.1 million during the first half of 2006 due to the construction of the Elkhart branch opened in June of 2006.

Deposits declined, as a large deposit made by a local municipality at year-end 2005 was withdrawn in their normal course of business in early January 2006. Total average deposits for the second quarter of 2006 increased $5 million from the fourth quarter of 2005. Short-term borrowings increased and investments decreased to cover the growth in loans.

There have been no other material changes in the financial condition of Horizon from December 31, 2005 to June 30, 2006.

Results of Operations

Material Changes in Results of Operations – Three months ended June 30, 2006 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2005

During the three months ended June 30, 2006, net income totaled $1.834 million or $.57 per diluted share compared to $1.680 million or $.53 per diluted share for the same period in 2005.

Net interest income for the quarter ended June 30, 2006, was $7.836 million, an increase of $557 thousand or an increase of 7.7% over the same period of the prior year. This increase resulted from an increase in average earning assets from the same quarter of the prior year of $101.2 million or 11.2%. The growth in earning assets was the result of the Alliance Bank acquisition that contributed approximately $116 million in earning assets. Simultaneously, mortgage warehouse loans, while up from the first quarter of 2006, declined approximately $7.1 million on average from the second quarter of 2005, due to a decline in overall residential mortgage activity. Contributing to net interest income in the second quarter of 2006 was approximately $125 thousand of income, which related to commercial loans that were acquired at a discount in the Alliance acquisition and were paid in full during the quarter. The net interest margin was 3.11% compared to 3.22% for the second quarter of 2005. Without the recognition of the discount income from the Alliance loans, the net interest margin would have been 3.09% in the second quarter of 2006.

Noninterest income decreased $106 thousand or 4.3% from the second quarter of 2005. The main contributing factors were: 1) a loss on the sale of investment securities of $91 thousand in 2006, and 2) a decline in the gain on sale of loans, and a decline in mortgage loan broker fees due to lower volume of loans available for sale. Offsetting these declines were, 1) increased service charge income from NSF fees, and 2) additional fiduciary fees as a result of increased assets under management and annual tax preparation fees.

Noninterest expense increased $418 thousand or 6.0% from the second quarter of 2005. Salary and employee benefit expense decreased as staff members who left the company in late 2005 and early 2006 have not been replaced. The offsetting increase in other noninterest expense categories relates to ongoing expenses related to the Alliance Bank acquisition including core deposit intangible amortization of approximately $93 thousand. On January 1, 2006, Horizon adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment (“SFAS 123(R)”). For the quarter ended June 30, 2006, Horizon recorded $6 thousand of employee compensation expense related to expensing of stock options. See Note 1 to the financial statements for additional discussion of the adoption of SFAS 123(R).

There have been no other material changes in the results of operations of Horizon for the three months ending June 30, 2006 and 2005.

Material Changes in Results of Operations – Six months ended June 30, 2006 compared to the Six months ended June 30, 2005

During the six months ended June 30, 2006, net income totaled $3.283 million or $1.02 per diluted share compared to $2.983 million or $0.95 per diluted share for the same period in 2005.

Net interest income for the six month period ended June 30, 2006, was $15.646 million, an increase of $1.594 million an increase of 11.3% over the same period of the prior year. This increase resulted from an increase in average earning assets from the same quarter of the prior year of $120.0 million or 13.9%. The growth in earning assets was the result of the Alliance Bank acquisition that contributed approximately $116 million in earning assets. The net interest margin declined from 3.24%for the 2005 period to 3.15% for 2006. Contributing to net interest income in the first half of 2006 was approximately $330 thousand of income, which related to commercial loans that were acquired at a discount in the

Alliance acquisition and were paid in full during the quarter. Without this income the net interest margin would have been approximately 3.11%.

Noninterest income for the first six months of 2006 declined by $355 thousand or 7.5%. Much of the decline can be attributed to the securities losses. Also contributing was a decline in gain on sale of loans and brokered loan fees. Offsetting these declines was increased service charge income and fiduciary fees. Other income in 2005 included approximately $160 thousand in pre-tax income from the sale of the retail property and casualty insurance lines of Horizon Insurance Services, Inc.

Noninterest expense increased $954 thousand or 6.8% from the first six months of 2005. The increased relates to the same reasons mentioned above for the three months ended June 30, 2006.

There have been no other material changes in the results of operations of Horizon for the six months ending June 30, 2006 and 2005.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Horizon currently does not engage in any derivative or hedging activity. Refer to Horizon’s 2005 Form 10-K for analysis of its interest rate sensitivity. Horizon believes there have been no significant changes in its interest rate sensitivity since it was reported in its 2005 Form 10-K.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation Of Disclosure Controls And Procedures
