INDIANAPOLIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- First Internet Bancorp ("Bancorp") today reported net income of $944,750 for the quarter ended June 30, 2010, compared to net income of $263,747 for the same quarter in the previous year.

"To put the earnings results in perspective, this is the most profitable quarter we have ever had that did not include a significant one-time event," remarked David Becker, Chairman and CEO of First Internet Bancorp. Higher earnings were reported for first quarter 2010 and third quarter 2001 but included favorable one-time adjustments.

Mr. Becker noted the Bancorp has had strong success year-to-date. The adjusted first quarter 2010 net income of $771,645 ($2,299,967 prior to the reversal of loan loss expense related to a large commercial credit) also represented significant improvement over first quarter 2009.

Earnings improvement was the result of increased net interest margin, continued generation of non-interest income and a reduction in loan loss provision. Net interest margins widened due to increased loan yields and lower cost of funds. Second quarter net interest margin equaled 3.18% compared to 3.17% as of March 31, 2010, and 2.53% as of June 30, 2009. Non-interest income, derived primarily from online mortgage originations, continued to have a positive impact on earnings, adding $738,674 in the second quarter. Non-interest expenses remained below peer levels as a result of the Bancorp's efficient Internet banking platform.

Second quarter provision for loan loss was $773,861, a reduction of $706,327 over the same period in 2009; however, the Bancorp continued to maintain a robust allowance for loan and lease loss. As of June 30, 2010, the Bancorp held reserves equal to 2.37% of outstanding loan balances not held for sale compared to 2.34% as of March 31, 2010 and 1.71% as of June 30, 2009.

"By remaining focused on areas we can control, such as loan and deposit pricing and selected non-interest expense items, we have continued to improve profitability," Mr. Becker said. "Loan losses are still elevated when compared to historic levels; however, they are trending lower in our portfolio, which is consistent with national consumer credit trends."

The Bancorp remained well capitalized under risk-based capital guidelines issued by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (FRB).
