Material Changes vs. Prior Period

- Deposit Growth: Total deposits rose 6.0% to $669.6 million. Time deposits surged 18.2% ($45.7 million) as customers sought higher rates on Certificates of Deposit.
- Profitability: Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 1995, was $6.75 million, a 18.6% increase over the $5.69 million reported in the same period in 1994. Net interest income increased 6.9% primarily due to volume growth.
- Expense Management: Total other expenses remained substantially flat compared to the prior year. FDIC insurance expenses decreased significantly ($324,000 for the nine months) due to a $387,000 refund received in September 1995.
- Equity: Stockholders' equity increased $12.2 million, driven by retained earnings and a $6.8 million swing in net unrealized gains on investments.
Outlook, Risks, and Unusual Items
- Acquisition Impact: The pooling-of-interests accounting for the Bank of Sugar Grove acquisition required restating prior period results. No material effect on financial position was noted from the adoption of FAS 114 (Loan Impairment) effective Jan 1, 1995.
- Investment Classification: Held-to-maturity securities from the acquired bank were reclassified to "Available for Sale" to conform with Old Second's policies, impacting the unrealized gain/loss component of equity.
- Liquidity: The company maintains liquidity through non-interest bearing deposits, federal funds sold, and unpledged securities. Net cash provided by financing activities was $38.2 million for the nine months, primarily driven by deposit growth.
- Cash Flow Variance: Operating cash flow decreased to $6.7 million (from $12.3 million in the prior year) primarily due to increased activity in mortgages held for resale.
Investor Verification Checklist
- Verify the restatement of 1994 comparative figures to ensure accurate year-over-year growth analysis post-acquisition.
- Confirm the sustainability of the 18.2% growth in Time Deposits and the associated interest expense impact.
- Review the composition of the $6.8 million increase in Net Unrealized Gain on Investments to assess market risk exposure.
- Monitor the trend in FDIC insurance expenses to determine if the $387,000 refund was a one-time event.
- Assess the loan portfolio quality given the 8.3% increase in net loans and the low provision for loan losses ($79k for nine months).
