Indiana Business Q2 Profit Up On Tax Benefit

9/14/2012 2:41 AM ET

Indiana Business Bancorp. (IBBI), the holding company of Indiana Business Bank, reported an increase in net income for the second quarter from the year-ago quarter, helped by a tax benefit which was absent last year.

Second quarter net income rose to $161.6 thousand or 11 cents per share from $112.6 thousand or 7 cents per share last year. The latest results included a tax benefit of $50 thousand from the carryover of net operating losses.

Interest income for the quarter increased to $720.6 thousand from $683.4 thousand last year. Non-interest income, however, declined to $37 thousand from $103.9 thousand a year ago.

For the quarter, total loans decreased to 51.8 million from 54.3 million last year, while deposits slumped to 48.2 million from 52.5 million last year. Provision for loan losses was $90 thousand, flat with last year.

Looking forward, Indiana's President and CEO James Young said, "Economic uncertainties and competitive pressures present challenges for our industry. However, we remain confident in our ability to serve our small business clientele in a profitable and prudent manner."

Thursday, the stock closed at $3.50 on the OTC market.

Stocks moved sharply higher over the course of the trading day on Friday, more than offsetting the weakness seen on Thursday. In a reversal from the previous session, the markets benefited from some upbeat U.S. economic data as well as comments from a Federal Reserve official. The major averages saw further upside going into the close, with the Dow and the S&P 500 reaching new record highs. As the IRS targeting scandal continues to make headlines, animal-protection charity People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, or PETA, claims that conservative groups are not the only ones that have faced increased scrutiny from the agency. While the IRS targeting scandal has taken center stage on Capitol Hill on Friday, the results of a new Gallup poll showed that the American public's interest in the story is comparatively low based on historical measures. The poll showed that 54 percent of Americans are following the news that the IRS targeted conservative groups for greater scrutiny "very" or "somewhat" closely.
