Cromer President and Chief Executive Officer Dated: July 29, 2004 EX-99 2 ffw_8k0729ex.txt PRESS RELEASE Exhibit 99.1 ------------ FFW CORP PRESS RELEASE FOR MORE INFORMATION FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Tim Sheppard, CFO Date: July 29, 2004 at 260-563-3185 x228 FFW CORPORATION ANNOUNCES RECORD EARNINGS FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2004 WABASH, INDIANA - - FFW Corporation (NASDAQ: FFWC), parent corporation of First Federal Savings Bank of Wabash, Indiana, announced operating results for the fourth fiscal quarter of 2004 and year ended June 30, 2004. FFW Corporation recorded record net income of $2,437,000, up 3.4%, from the previous record of $2,358,000 at June 30, 2003. Diluted net income per share for the twelve months ended June 30, 2004 was $1.85, up 6.3%, compared to $1.74 at June 30, 2003. Roger K. Cromer, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, "We are pleased with our record earnings performance during a challenging economic environment for financial institutions. During the second half of our fiscal year, we embarked on our first expansion since 1997. We added office space to our Syracuse, IN branch and opened a new full service branch in Columbia City, IN. We also invested in many new technologies which will augment our current product mix. We believe our independent community bank model of delivering personal and dependable service will be enhanced for future growth with these new investments." Net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2004, was $556,000, a 4.3% decrease from the $581,000 reported for the quarter ended June 30, 2003. Diluted net income per share for the fourth fiscal quarter of 2004 amounted to $0.43, down 2.3% from the $0.44 reported in the fourth fiscal quarter of 2003. The fiscal 2004 fourth quarter and year to date earnings represent a return on average shareholders' equity of 9.33% and 10.38% compared to 9.72% and 10.08% for the periods ended June 30, 2003. Return on average total assets for the three and twelve-month periods ended June 30, 2004 were 0.92% and 1.01% compared to 1.00% and 1.00% for the periods ended June 30, 2003. Interest income in the fourth fiscal quarter of 2004 was increased by $174,000 to adjust deferred loan fee income on small business loans, which had accumulated an overstatement over a period of several years. The processing error causing the overstatement was discovered and corrected in the fourth quarter. Reduced provision for loan losses and a lower effective tax rate for the quarter ended June 30, 2004 compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2003 were more than offset by increased personnel, equipment and facilities expense along with decreased net gain on sales of loans income. FFW Corporation Chief Financial Officer, Tim Sheppard, commented, "Income from loan sales should be less than the prior year's for at least the first fiscal quarter of 2005. In addition, due to our recent expansions, personnel, equipment and facilities expense will be higher in fiscal 2005." The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of net loans receivable was 1.89% at June 30, 2004 compared to 1.90% at March 31, 2004 and 2.06% at June 30, 2003. Nonperforming assets at June 30, 2004 were $2.2 million compared to $2.0 million at March 31, 2004 and $2.7 million at June 30, 2003. As of June 30, 2004, FFWC's equity-to-assets ratio was 9.43% compared to 9.87% at June 30, 2003. Shareholders' equity was $22.6 million compared to $23.6 million at June 30, 2003. Total assets at June 30, 2004 were $239.9 million compared to $242.8 million at 2003 fiscal year end. Total deposits at June 30, 2004 were down $4.2 million over June 30, 2003 while total FHLB borrowings increased by $3.7 million.
