Mid Penn undertakes no obligation to publicly revise or update these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that arise after the date of this report. Readers should carefully review the risk factors described in the documents that we periodically file with the SEC, including Mid Penn's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.
Critical Accounting Estimates
Mid Penn's consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") and conform to general practices within the banking industry. Application of these principles involves significant judgments and estimates by management that have a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities. The judgments and estimates that we used are based on historical experiences and other factors, which are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Because of the nature of the judgments and estimates that we have made, actual results could differ from these judgments and estimates, which could have a material impact on the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the results of our operations.
Management of Mid Penn considers the accounting judgments relating to the allowance for loan and lease losses, the evaluation of Mid Penn's investment securities for other-than-temporary impairment, and the assessment of goodwill for impairment to be the accounting areas that require the most subjective and complex judgments.
The allowance for loan and lease losses represents management's estimate of probable incurred credit losses inherent in the loan and lease portfolio. Determining the amount of the allowance for loan and lease losses is considered a critical accounting estimate because it requires significant judgment and the use of estimates related to the amount and timing of expected future cash flows on impaired loans, estimated losses on pools of homogeneous loans based on historical loss experience, and consideration of current economic trends and conditions, all of which may be susceptible to significant change. The loan and lease portfolio also represents the largest asset type on the consolidated balance sheet. Throughout the remainder of this report, the terms "loan" or "loans" refers to both loans and leases.
Valuations for the investment portfolio are determined using quoted market prices, where available. If quoted market prices are not available, investment valuation is based on pricing models, quotes for similar investment securities, and observable yield curves and spreads. In addition to valuation, management must assess whether there are any declines in value below the carrying value of the investments that should be considered other than temporary or otherwise require an adjustment in carrying value and recognition of the loss in the consolidated statement of operations.
Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 350, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other, requires that goodwill is not amortized to expense, but rather that it be tested for impairment at least annually. Impairment write-downs are charged to results of operations in the period in which the impairment is determined. Mid Penn did not identify any impairment on its outstanding goodwill from its most recent testing, which was performed as of December 31, 2011. If certain events occur which might indicate goodwill has been impaired, the goodwill is tested when such events occur.
Results of Operations
Overview
Net income available to common shareholders was $1,231,000, $0.35 per common share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2012, as compared to net income available to common shareholders of $930,000, or $0.27 per common share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2011, a 32.4% increase. During the six months ended June 30, 2012, net income available to common shareholders was $2,237,000, or $0.64 per common share, versus $1,802,000, or $0.52 per common share for the same period in 2011, a 24.1% increase.
Net interest income increased $433,000, or 7.7%, to $6,023,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2012 from $5,590,000 during the quarter ended June 30, 2011. Through the first six months of 2012, net interest income increased $1,127,000, or 10.7%, to $11,700,000 from $10,573,000 during the same period in 2011. This increase has been spurred by a moderating cost of funds and increasing levels of average earning assets.
The provision for loan and lease losses in the second quarter of 2012 was $225,000, compared to $550,000 in the second quarter of 2011. During the six months ended June 30, 2012, the provision for loan and lease losses was $525,000 compared to $750,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2011.
Net income as a percent of average assets (return on average assets or "ROA") and shareholders' equity (return on average equity or "ROE") were as follows on an annualized basis:
Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30,
2012 2011 2012 2011
Return on average assets 0.78 % 0.62 % 0.71 % 0.62 %
Return on average equity 9.96 % 8.53 % 9.22 % 8.44 %
|
Total assets decreased $18,449,000 to $696,934,000 at June 30, 2012, from $715,383,000 at December 31, 2011. This decrease is mainly attributable to the decline in total deposits, which decreased $23,641,000 from $634,055,000 at December 31, 2011 to $610,414,000 at June 30, 2012. Loan growth during the first six months of 2012 was weak, increasing $3,265,000 from $482,717,000 at December 31, 2011 to $485,982,000 at June 30, 2012. In order to continue improving net interest margin within the current environment, Mid Penn has chosen to manage the balance sheet in such a way that loan and deposit growth in 2012 remain closely matched, and because of this strategy, asset growth has moderated in the first six months of 2012.
Deposit growth has diminished, as noted above, during the first six months of 2012. This allowed for a closer match between funding sources and funding uses, as well as reduced the balance of overnight funding, which has been advantageous from a net interest margin perspective. Numerous deposit repricing opportunities remain throughout 2012, which will continue to help improve cost of funds as well as overall net interest margin despite continued downward pressure on asset yields.
Net Interest Income/Funding Sources
Net interest income, Mid Penn's primary source of revenue, is the amount by which interest income on loans and investments exceeds interest incurred on deposits and borrowings. The amount of net interest income is affected by changes in interest rates and changes in the volume and mix of interest-sensitive assets and liabilities. Net interest income and corresponding yields are presented in the analysis below on a taxable-equivalent basis. Income from tax-exempt assets, primarily loans to or securities issued by state and local governments, is adjusted by an amount equivalent to the federal income taxes which would have been paid if the income received on these assets was taxable at the statutory rate of 34%. The following table includes average balances, rates, interest income and expense, interest rate spread, and net interest margin:

For the six months ended June 30, 2012, Mid Penn's taxable-equivalent net interest margin increased to 3.67%, from 3.51%, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2011, driven primarily by a reduction in cost of supporting liabilities. Net interest income, on a taxable-equivalent basis, in the first six months of 2012, increased to $12,308,000 from $11,090,000 in the first six months of 2011, related to the changing composition of interest bearing liabilities and the growth in average earning assets, which increased 5.7% from June 30, 2011 to June 30, 2012.
Although the effective interest rate impact on earning assets and funding sources can be reasonably estimated at current interest rate levels, the options selected by customers, and the future mix of the loan, investment, and deposit products in the Bank's portfolios, may significantly change the estimates used in the simulation models. In addition, our net interest income may be impacted by further interest rate actions of the Federal Reserve Bank.
Provision for Loan Losses
The provision for loan and lease losses is the expense necessary to maintain the allowance for loan and lease losses at a level adequate to absorb management's estimate of probable losses in the loan and lease portfolio. Mid Penn's provision for loan and lease losses is based upon management's monthly review of the loan portfolio. The purpose of the review is to assess loan quality, identify impaired loans and leases, analyze delinquencies, ascertain loan and lease growth, evaluate potential charge-offs and recoveries, and assess general economic conditions in the markets we serve.
During the first six months of 2012, Mid Penn continued to experience a challenging economic and operating environment both on a national and local level. Give the economic pressures that impact some borrowers, Mid Penn has contributed to the allowance for loan and lease losses in accordance with Mid Penn's assessment process, which took into consideration the decrease in collateral values from December 31, 2011 to June 30, 2012. Mid Penn's provision for loan and lease losses was $225,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2012, as compared to $550,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2011. During the six months ended June 30, 2012, the provision for loan and lease losses was $525,000, as compared to $750,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2011. For further discussion of factors affecting the provision for loan and lease losses please see Credit Quality, Credit Risk, and Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses in the Financial Condition section of this Management's Discussion and Analysis.
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income increased $226,000, or 32.1%, during the second quarter of
2012 versus the second quarter of 2011. During the six months ended June 30,
2012, noninterest income increased $206,000, or 14.1%, versus the same period in
2011. The following components of noninterest income showed significant changes:
(Dollars in Thousands) Three Months Ended June 30,
2012 2011 $ Variance % Variance
Income from fiduciary activities $ 189 $ 115 $ 74 64.3 %

Other income 694 548 146 26.6 %
|
Income from fiduciary activities increased during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 versus the same periods in 2011. This increase was the result of greater sales of third party mutual funds during the first half of 2012. Service charges on deposits, primarily fees from insufficient funds, have decreased during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012. During this period of economic downturn, customers seem to have become more conscientious about their account balances and avoiding unnecessary charges related to insufficient funds. In addition to this behavioral change, Mid Penn was negatively impacted by recent regulatory changes governing overdraft charges on electronic transactions, which has resulted in a reduction in NSF revenue. Mid Penn recognized investment security gains in the first six months of 2012 as a result of efforts to position the portfolio to provide earnings and cash flow in support of anticipated loan growth. Mortgage banking income has been robust during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012. The reduction in both 15 and 30 year mortgage rates has incentivized qualified borrowers to refinance their present mortgages. Purchase activity has increased but is still weak versus pre-recession levels in spite of low financing rates and reduced home prices. During the second quarter of 2012, the former Bank branch at 4098 Derry Street in Harrisburg was sold, resulting in a gain of $40,000. Administrative operations housed in this location were relocated to other facilities within the Bank's network. Also contributing to the increase in other income during 2012 were increased levels of merchant services and card interchange revenue compared to the same periods in 2011, as well as recognition of $35,000 in sales tax refunds from disputed filings in previous years.
Noninterest Expenses
Noninterest expenses increased $539,000 or 12.2% during the second quarter of 2012, versus the same period in 2011. During the six months ended June 30, 2012, noninterest expenses increased $977,000, or 11.2%, versus the same period in 2011. The changes were primarily a result of the following components of noninterest expense:
2012 2011 $ Variance % Variance
Salaries and employee benefits $ 2,619 $ 2,401 $ 218 -9.1 %
Equipment expense 286 318 (32 ) 10.1 %

Marketing and advertising expense 128 95 33 -34.7 %
Loss (gain) on sale/write-down of
foreclosed assets 50 (31 ) 81 -261.3 %
Other expenses 633 508 125 -24.6 %

|
Salaries and employee benefits increased during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, primarily due to the increase in actual medical claims experienced from Mid Penn's self-funded medical insurance plan. Also contributing to the increase was the hiring of experienced team members to bolster compliance functions and to add depth to the sales and support areas of Mid Penn. Equipment expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 declined from the same period in 2011, mainly because depreciation expense has been declining as older assets become fully depreciated faster than newly acquired assets have been added. FDIC assessments have increased during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 due to a combination of the growth in the asset base used in the computation. Marketing and advertising expenses have also increased during the periods noted above due to Mid Penn taking a more active posture toward raising general market awareness as the Bank seeks to grow the institution. A negative variance during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 was the loss (gain) on sale/write-down of foreclosed assets. Real estate values for these distressed properties have declined, though their liquidation has been able to proceed in a more orderly manner. The escalation in loan collection costs for the six months ended June 30, 2012 is attributed to the portfolio of problem credits migrating through the collection process. Other expenses increased during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, primarily due to a general increase in overall cost of services utilized.
Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes was $422,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2012, as compared to the provision for income taxes of $278,000 in the same period last year. The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2012, was 23.6% compared to 20.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2011. The provision for income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was $665,000, as compared to $519,000 during the same period in 2011. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was 21.0% compared to 20.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2011. Generally, our effective tax rate is below the statutory rate due to earnings on tax-exempt loans, investments, and bank-owned life insurance, as well as the impact of tax credits. The realization of deferred tax assets is dependent on future earnings. We currently anticipate that future earnings will be adequate to fully utilize deferred tax assets.
Financial Condition
Loans
During the first six months of 2012, Mid Penn experienced an increase in loans outstanding. Commercial real estate, as well as commercial, industrial, and agricultural, and residential real estate balances showed modest increases as requests from creditworthy borrowers has begun to increase. Balances in the other components of the loan portfolio have eroded through contractual payments and the refinancing of real estate secured debt by borrowers with equity in their properties. While loan demand has shown modest improvement, Mid Penn experienced weaker than normal loan demand during the first six months of 2012 despite a desire to sensibly lend to support creditworthy existing and new customers in our marketplace.

Most of Mid Penn's lending activities are with customers located within the trading area of Dauphin County, lower Northumberland County, western Schuylkill County and eastern Cumberland County, Pennsylvania. This region currently, and historically, has lower unemployment than the U.S. as a whole. This is due in . . .
