Mortgage banking activities are conducted by Irwin Mortgage Corporation which originates, sells, and services residential mortgage loans throughout the United States.

Net income from mortgage banking for the first quarter was $2.5 million, down 58.3% from the same period in 1999. Return on average equity was 10.2% for the first quarter of 2000, compared to 21.7% during the same period in 1999. These declines relate to a continued rising interest rate environment which slowed production activity throughout the mortgage banking industry.

As a result of the rising interest rate environment, mortgage loan originations of $0.9 billion were 51.5% below the first quarter of 1999. Refinances accounted for 13.9% of loan production in the first quarter of 2000, compared to 47.9% in 1999. Lower production volume caused mortgage loan origination income to decrease 43.8% in the first quarter to $7.4 million. Because certain fees are not collected for loan refinancings, loan origination fees did not decrease at the same rate as loan production during the first quarter of 2000 compared to the same period in 1999.

As a result of lower loan production in the first quarter of 2000, gains on the sale of loans decreased 56.3% to $10.8 million.

Mortgage loan servicing fees totaled $13.4 million for the first quarter of 2000, a decrease of $0.7 million or 4.9%. The servicing portfolio totaled $10.5 billion at March 31, 2000, relatively unchanged from December 31, 1999.

Mortgage servicing assets totaled $136.5 million at March 31, 2000, up 2.9% from December 31, 1999. The amortization and impairment of servicing assets, net of hedging, of $5.6 million in the first quarter of 2000 represents a decline of 48.6% compared to the same period in 1999. Included in the 1999 amount was a $10.8 million trading loss related to hedging activities coupled with a reversal of the valuation allowance of $6.3 million.

Net interest income for the three months ended March 31,2000 was $6.3 million, up 10.1% from the first quarter 1999. Included in first quarter 2000 interest income was $3.0 million related to interest earned pursuant to a refund of federal income taxes due the company relating to a prior period tax return. This amount is not expected to recur in subsequent periods.

 

The provision for loan losses was down 90.6% in the first quarter of 2000 from $0.5 million in the first quarter of 1999. The first quarter 2000 figure reflects a change in accounting classification to more accurately account for nonperforming assets held at the mortgage bank. Prior to the third quarter of 1999, all nonperforming loans held at the mortgage bank were included in the nonperforming assets category. The majority of these assets are held for resale, rather than as a part of the loan portfolio, and as such, are more appropriately classified as part of the portfolio of loans held for sale and carried at the lower of cost or market value. There is no economic difference in this accounting classification as marking the loans to market when valued at less than face value has the same effect as establishing a loan loss allowance, but it more accurately reflects management's intent with respect to the ultimate disposition of the assets.

Revenues from the sale of mortgage servicing were down 89.3% from the first quarter of 1999 to $0.3 million. This decline was the result of a 55.8% decline in mortgage servicing assets sold during the first quarter 2000 and the fact that some of the 1999 sales included pre-FAS 122 mortgage servicing assets which had not been recorded on the balance sheet, and thus resulted in larger gains at the time of sale.

Salaries and employee benefits decreased 25.6% to $17.9 million for the first quarter of 2000 reflecting the company's efforts at cost reduction in light of reduced originations. The reduction was due to a decline in commissions as a result of lower loan production in the first quarter of 2000. Other operating expenses also decreased 24.2% in the first quarter 2000 as a result of lower production.

The home equity lending business markets home equity and first mortgage loans through direct mail, telemarketing and the Internet in 29 states.

Net income for the home equity lending business was $2.6 million, $4.4 million pre-tax, during the first quarter of 2000. These results are compared to 1999 first quarter pre-tax net income of $3.0 million. Income tax expense for the quarter ended March 31, 1999 was recorded at the parent company as the home equity lending business had not fully utilized its net operating loss carryforwards until late in 1999.

Net interest revenue-unsold loans and other was $1.0 million lower in first quarter 2000 compared to first quarter 1999, representing a 27.6% decrease. I/O strip interest income increased 93.2% to $2.5 million for the first quarter 2000 compared to 1999. The fluctuation between these two items is a result of timing on sales of loans. Overall, net interest revenue increased $0.2 million or 3.7% compared to first quarter 1999.

During the first quarter of 2000, home equity loan and line of credit originations and acquisitions totaled $196.5 million, compared with $95.0 million in originations in first quarter 1999. Included in the first quarter 2000 increase were $99.3 million in home equity loans which were acquired from other prime credit, high loan-to-value lenders.

Gains from the securitization of loans totaled $9.0 million in the first quarter of 2000, up 82.3% from the first quarter 1999. The company sold $131.6 million of product in the first quarter of 2000, versus $160.7 million during first quarter 1999. This improvement, despite the reduction in loan sales is a result of higher valuation of the loans sold during the current period.

The home equity lending business services the loans it has securitized and collects an annual fee of up to 1% of the outstanding principal balance of the securitized loans. Net servicing fee income totaled $1.1 million in the first quarter of 2000, up 72.0% from the same period in 1999. The increase is due to growth in the servicing portfolio combined with a decline in the prepayments of underlying loans and resulting impairment of servicing assets caused by the rising interest rate environment. Interest-only strips are carried at their market values determined using assumptions about the duration and performance of the securitized loans. At March 31, 2000, the assumed annual loss rates ranged from 0.25% to 3.00%, prepayment speeds ranged from 8% to 40% CPR (constant prepayment rate) per year, and the discount rate was 15.0%. To mitigate the interest rate risk associated with certain interest-only strips, the home equity lending business uses an interest rate cap which is also carried at its market value, which was $0.7 million at March 31, 2000.

Included in income during the first quarter of 2000 was an unrealized trading gain of $3.4 million recorded to adjust the carrying value of interest-only strips and the interest rate cap to their market values. This gain compares with a $0.2 million gain recorded in the first quarter of 1999. The improvement in 2000 is due to the rising interest rate environment combined with efforts made to shift a substantial portion of the home equity loan portfolio into product with less prepayment sensitivity.

Operating expenses were $14.7 million in the first quarter of 2000, up 84.0% from 1999, reflecting the growth in the company's managed portfolio and growth in production.

Commercial banking activities are conducted by Irwin Union Bank (the Bank) which is headquartered in Columbus, Indiana. In recent years, the Bank has implemented a growth plan that calls for expansion into new markets outside of its traditional markets in south-central Indiana using de novo offices staffed by senior commercial loan officers who have experience with other commercial banks. As a result, the commercial bank currently operates in nine counties in Indiana as well as Kalamazoo, Grandville (Grand Rapids), and Traverse City, Michigan; Brentwood (St. Louis), Missouri; and Carson City, Nevada.

Net income for the commercial bank increased in the first quarter to $1.9 million from $1.7 million a year earlier. Net interest income improved 27.2% to $9.0 million in the first quarter of 2000. These increases relate primarily to the commercial banks continued growth in new markets. The provision for loan losses decreased 1.9% to $443.7 thousand in the first quarter compared with a provision of $452.3 thousand a year earlier.

Other income in the first quarter was down 6.7% to $2.9 million from $3.1 million in 1999. Total operating expenses, including salaries and benefits, increased 18.3% from the first quarter of 1999 to $8.4 million. The continued expansion of operations in new markets led to increased non-interest expense in 2000.

 

 

Equipment Leasing

During 1999, the Corporation formed a new leasing subsidiary, Irwin Business Finance. The company began organizing in the second quarter of 1999 and began lease originations in early 2000. During the first quarter of 2000, the leasing line of business incurred a pre-tax loss of $0.9 million, reflecting staffing, systems development, and portfolio growth initiatives. Total lease receivables originated in the first quarter of 2000 were $16.0 million.

 

Venture Capital

During 1999, the Corporation formed Irwin Ventures, Inc., a venture capital company which makes minority investments in early-stage financial services-related businesses. Its primary focus is on businesses which plan to use the Internet or other forms of technology, as a key component of their competitive strategy. The company seeks to make investments in opportunities where the financial services experience and expertise of Irwin Ventures' management team can add superior value to innovative companies. The Corporation's Board of Directors has approved an allocation of up to 10% of the Corporation's capital base to support this subsidiary. During the first quarter of 2000 the venture capital line of business recorded net income of $4.3 million which resulted principally from valuation increases in one of its portfolio investments.

Venture capital investments held by Irwin Ventures, Inc. are carried at fair value with changes in market value recognized in other income. The investment committee of Irwin Ventures determines the value of the investments at the end of each reporting period and the values are adjusted based upon review of the investee's financial results, condition, and prospectus. Changes in estimated market values can also be made when an event such as a new funding round from other private equity investors would cause a change in estimated market value.

At March 31, 2000, the business had investments in the following companies:

Parent Company (including consolidating entries)

For the quarter ended March 31, 2000, the parent company recorded a net loss of $2.0 million compared with a net loss of $1.7 million a year earlier. The parent company recorded $0.3 million of income tax benefit related to Irwin Business Finance for the period ended March 31, 2000. The parent company will continue to record tax benefits resulting from the operating losses of Irwin Business Finance until such time as Irwin Business Finance becomes profitable and utilizes all of its operating loss carryforwards.

Parent company operating losses are higher in 2000 as a result of increased net interest expense for funding to support the growth of subsidiaries. Additionally, the parent company enters into interest rate swap agreements with its subsidiaries, the results of which have been less favorable to the parent in 2000 than in 1999.

 

Consolidated Income Statement Analysis

Net interest income for the first quarter of 2000 totaled $20.3 million, up 13.2% from the first quarter of 1999. The increase was due primarily to the loan growth at the commercial bank related to expansion into new markets.

The loan and lease loss provision was $1.1 million for the first quarter of 2000, as compared with $1.2 million for the same period in 1999. See the section on credit risk for additional information on the loan loss provision.

Noninterest income was down 8.3% to $50.1 million in the first quarter of 2000. The first quarter decline was caused primarily by lower revenues at the Corporation's mortgage banking line of business as a result of the rising interest rate environment which slowed loan production activity.

Other expenses decreased 2.1% in the first quarter of 2000 to $53.9 million. Reduced loan production activities at the mortgage bank resulted in the first quarter decline.

The effective income tax rate for the Corporation was 40.1% during the first quarter of 2000. This is compared with 40.5% in the first quarter of 1999.

Consolidated Balance Sheet Analysis

Total assets of the Corporation at March 31, 2000, were $1.8 billion, up from December 31, 1999 total assets of $1.7 billion. The increase was due to growth in loans which totaled $0.8 billion at March 31, 2000, up from $0.7 billion at December 31, 1999. The increase in assets was accompanied by an increase in deposits of $0.1 billion. A portion of noninterest bearing deposits is associated with escrow accounts held on loans in the servicing portfolio of Irwin Mortgage. These escrow accounts totaled $172.9 million at March 31, 2000, up from $148.9 million at December 31, 1999.

Shareholders' equity grew to $165.3 million as of March 31, 2000, an increase of 3.7% over year-end 1999 shareholders' equity of $159.3 million. Contributing to the growth in shareholders' equity was the issuance during the first quarter of 2000 of approximately $1.4 million in non-coupon, convertible preferred shares of the Corporation's stock. This stock was issued to certain qualified investors thought to be in a position to support deposit growth in certain of the expansion markets of the commercial banking line of business. Shareholders' equity as of March 31, 2000 was $7.70 per common shares, an increase of 2.0% compared to December 31, 1999. The Corporation's equity to assets ratio ended the quarter at 8.98% compared to 9.48% at the end of 1999.

Credit Risk

The assumption of credit risk is a key source of earnings for the commercial banking, home equity lending and equipment leasing lines of business. In addition, the mortgage banking business assumes some credit risk despite the fact that the mortgages are typically insured.

The credit risk in the loan portfolios of the commercial bank and the home equity lending business have the most potential to have a significant effect on consolidated financial performance. These lines of business manage credit risk through the use of lending policies, credit analysis and approval procedures, periodic loan reviews, and personal contact with borrowers. Loans over a certain size are reviewed by a loan committee prior to approval.

An allowance for loan losses is established as an estimate of the probable credit losses on the loans held by the Corporation. A specific allowance is determined by evaluating those loans which are either substandard or have the potential to become substandard. In general, commercial loans, mortgage loans, and leases are evaluated individually to determine the appropriate allowance. Consumer loans, including home equity loans, are generally evaluated as a group. A specific allowance is set at a level which management considers sufficient to cover probable losses on these loans. A general allowance is determined by analyzing historical loss experience by loan type and then adjusting these loss factors for current conditions not reflected in prior experience. The allowance for loan losses is an estimate which is based on management's judgement combined with a quantitative process of evaluation and analysis.

Loans and leases that are determined by management to be uncollectible are charged against the allowance. The allowance is increased by provisions against income and recoveries of loans and leases previously charged off.

As of March 31, 2000, the allowance for loan and lease losses as a percentage of total loans and leases was 1.14% compared to 1.17% at December 31, 1999. For the three months ended March 31, 2000, the provision for loan and lease losses totaled $1.1 million, a slight decline from the amount recorded in the first quarter of 1999. Net charge-offs as of March 31, 2000 were $0.3 million, down 36.5% from first quarter 1999.

Nonperforming assets (loans 90 days past due, nonaccrual, and owned real estate) were $8.2 million or 0.45% of total assets at March 31, 2000, compared to $8.1 million or 0.48% at December 31, 1999.

Liquidity

Liquidity is the availability of funds to meet the daily requirements of the business. For financial institutions, demand for funds comes principally from extensions of credit and withdrawal of deposits. Liquidity is provided by asset maturities or sales and through short-term borrowings.

The objectives of liquidity management are to ensure that funds will be available to meet demands and that funds are available at a reasonable cost. Liquidity is managed by the parent company and the commercial bank with separate liquidity management committees at each line of business.

Since loans are less marketable than securities, the ratio of total loans to total deposits is the traditional measure of liquidity for banks and bank holding companies. At March 31, 2000, this ratio was 81.9%. The Corporation is able to maintain this position due to the position in mortgage loans held for sale. These loans carry an interest rate equal to the current market rate for first and second lien mortgage loans. However, liquidity is significantly improved since nearly all mortgage loans held for sale are in the process of being securitized and sold. The holding period for an individual loan typically does not exceed 90 days.

 

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk refers to the potential for changes in market rates of interest to cause changes in net interest income and in the market value of assets and liabilities.

The Asset-Liability Management Committees of each of the Corporation's lines of business monitor the repricing structure of both assets and liabilities over various time horizons and exposure to changes in interest rates is evaluated by modeling the repricing characteristics of the instruments under multiple rate scenarios. Rate sensitivities can typically be managed by controlling the maturity of loans, securities, and deposits and through the use of prepayment penalties. The Corporation may also use financial futures or interest rate swaps from time to time.

The commercial banking, home equity, and leasing lines of business assume interest rate risk in the pricing of their loan and lease products and mitigate this risk by managing the duration of the liabilities they raise to support their portfolios. The mortgage banking business assumes interest rate sensitivity by entering into commitments to extend loans to borrowers at a fixed price for a limited period of time. Loans are held temporarily until a pool is formed. The mortgage bank buys commitments to deliver loans at a fixed price to manage risk.

The mortgage bank and the home equity company are also exposed to interest rate risk through their ownership of servicing assets and excess servicing. As discussed in the analysis of each line of business earlier in this report, the companies also manage their risk using a variety of techniques including: maintaining a strong production operation which offsets the interest rate risk, selective sales of the servicing rights, match funded through asset-backed securities sales, and the use of financial hedges.

The following tables show management's estimate of the present value of interest-sensitive assets and liabilities, as well as off-balance sheet financial contracts as of March 31, 2000, at then current interest rates as well as simulated rates 1.0% and 2.0% above and below those interest rates. Two tables are presented:

  1. An economic analysis showing the net present value impact of changes in interest rates and
  2. An accounting analysis showing the same net present value impact, adjusted for the expected GAAP treatment of the assets and liabilities under the scenarios shown.

The analyses do not take into account the book values of the Corporation's non-interest sensitive assets and liabilities, such as cash, accounts receivable, and fixed assets, the value of which is not directly determined by interest rates.

As noted above, the analyses are based on discounted cash flows over the remaining estimated lives of the financial instruments. The total measurement of the Corporation's exposure to interest rate risk as presented in the following tables may not be representative of the actual values which might result from a higher or lower rate environment. Such environments would likely result in different lending and borrowing strategies by the Corporation, designed in part to further mitigate the effect on the value of, and the net earnings generated from the Corporation's net assets. In addition, they do not reflect activities not traditionally measured as financial assets or liabilities. Principal among these activities for the Corporation would be the change in mortgage loan production and the earnings stream the Corporation derives therefrom.

The figures in the table suggest, based on an economic assessment of balance sheet and off balance sheet financial assets and before any initiatives to mitigate the impact of changing interest rates, that the present value of the Corporation's interest-sensitive assets and liabilities would decline in a falling rate environment principally due to the Corporation's investments in mortgage servicing rights and would decline in a rising rate environment due to the influence of its loan portfolio. To mitigate the impact of rising rates, the Corporation periodically sells certain mortgage servicing rights where the risk profile indicates more downside risk than upside opportunity. The Corporation mitigates the risk of falling rates by maintaining a strong production operation which increases in value as interest rates fall.

Derivative Financial Instruments

The Corporation hedges its interest rate risk on mortgage loans held for sale using mandatory commitments to sell the loans at a future date. Certain of the Corporation's interest-only strips are hedged using interest rate caps which had a fair value of $0.7 million at March 31, 2000, and a notional amount of $46.6 million. Interest rate caps are classified as trading securities on the balance sheet and carried at their market values. Adjustments to market values are recorded as trading gains or losses on th income statement. In the first quarter of 2000, the Corporation recorded a $3.4 million gain related to these derivative products, compared to $10.0 million in losses in the previous year.

Part II

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

Kruta et al. v. Inland Mortgage Corporation. As reported in the Corporation's Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 1999, this class action lawsuit was initiated in October, 1995 and has been pending before a federal Multidistrict Litigation Panel in Chicago, Illinois. Plaintiffs allege they represent a nationwide class of persons who have or had mortgage escrow accounts allegedly improperly managed by Irwin Mortgage. On April 7, 2000, notice of a proposed settlement was distributed. If the court approves the proposal, Irwin Mortgage will provide eligible class members with a one hundred eighty dollar discount certificate towards refinancing or obtaining a new first mortgage loan from Irwin. The court is scheduled to consider the proposed settlement at a hearing on June 7, 2000.

Part II

Item 2. Changes in Securities and Use of Proceeds.

(c) On March 3, 2000, the Corporation sold a total of 96,336 shares of Convertible Preferred stock, consisting of 14,208 shares of Series A, 26,317 shares of Series B and 55,811 shares of Series C, for aggregate cash consideration of $1,423,967, or $14.78125 per share. The shares were offered and sold to accredited investors in private offerings in reliance on Rule 506 of Regulation D. No underwriting discounts or commissions were paid. The shares were sold as part of a program initiated by the Corporation to assist Irwin Union Bank in generating deposits in new markets. Each Series of Convertible Preferred Shares is associated with a particular new market of the Bank. Under the program, each preferred share is issued for cash at approximately the market price of one common share. A preferred share automatically converts into one common share at a determined future date. If the associated banking office in the particular market reaches a specified level of deposits prior to the conversion date, the number of common shares into which a preferred share converts will be increased by a specified amount up to a maximum increase of 25%, depending upon the date on which the deposit level is attained. The terms of each Series are substantially similar, differing primarily in the deposit level targeted for each market. A maximum of approximately 400,000 shares of preferred stock is issuable under the program. The proceeds will be used to strengthen the Corporation's capital base.

The Corporation has also created a program to encourage the participation by local individuals in business development boards in selected markets of Irwin Union Bank. Business development board members earn retainer fees of $1000 per year and meeting fees of $350 for each business development board meeting attended, payable in shares of the Corporation's common stock. Shares are issued quarterly based on the closing price of the common shares on the last business day of the quarter for which the fees are being paid. In the first quarter, 2000, the Corporation issued 1,776 shares of its common stock out of treasury shares to members of business development boards, based on a price of $15.00 per share in payment of an aggregate of $26,640. The Corporation issued 480 shares of common stock for such fees in 1999 and 252 shares in 1998, all out of treasury shares, in payment of an aggregate of $18,721 in fees payable to business development board members. These shares were issued in reliance on the private placement exemption of Section 4 (2) of the Securities Act.
