ITEM 1. BUSINESS
(Dollars in thousands except per share data)
General
MainSource Financial Group, Inc. ("the Company") is a financial holding company based in Greensburg, Indiana. As of December 31, 2007, the Company owned three banking subsidiaries: MainSource Bank, MainSource Bank of Illinois, and MainSource Bank - Ohio (together "the Banks"). The Company also owns all of the outstanding stock of MainSource Bank - Hobart, although substantially all of the assets of that bank were transferred to MainSource Bank in May, 2007. The Company is a party to an agreement to sell the stock of MainSource Bank - Hobart to a third party, which sale is anticipated to be comsummated in the first quarter of 2008. Through its non-bank affiliates, the Company provides services incidental to the business of banking. Since its formation in 1982, the Company has acquired and established various institutions and financial services companies and may acquire additional financial institutions and financial services companies in the future. For further discussion of the business of the Company see Management's Discussion and Analysis in Part II, Item 7.
As of December 31, 2007, the Company operated 79 branch banking offices in Indiana, Illinois, and Ohio as well as eight insurance offices in Indiana. As of December 31, 2007, the Company had consolidated assets of $2,536,437, consolidated deposits of $1,901,829 and shareholders' equity of $264,102.
Through its Banks, the Company offers a broad range of financial services, including: accepting time and transaction deposits; making consumer, commercial, agribusiness and real estate mortgage loans; renting safe deposit facilities; providing general agency personal and business insurance services; providing personal and corporate trust services; and providing other corporate services such as letters of credit and repurchase agreements.
The lending activities of the Banks are separated into primarily the categories of commercial/agricultural, real estate and consumer. Loans are originated by the lending officers of the Banks subject to limitations set forth in lending policies. The Boards of Directors of each Bank review loans up to the Bank's legal lending limits, monitor concentrations of credit, problem and past due loans and charge-offs of uncollectible loans and formulate loan policy. The Banks maintain conservative loan policies and underwriting practices in order to address and manage loan risks. These policies and practices include granting loans on a sound and collectible basis, serving the legitimate needs of the community and the general market area while obtaining a balance between maximum yield and minimum risk, ensuring that primary and secondary sources of repayment are adequate in relation to the amount of the loan, developing and maintaining adequate diversification of the loan portfolio as a whole and of the loans within each category and developing and applying adequate collection policies.
Commercial loans include secured and unsecured loans, including real estate loans, to individuals and companies and to governmental units within the market area of the Banks for a myriad of business purposes.
Agricultural loans are generated in the Banks' markets. Most of the loans are real estate loans on farm properties. Loans are also made for agricultural production and such loans are generally reviewed annually.
Residential real estate lending has been the largest component of the loan portfolio for many years. All affiliate banks generate residential mortgages for their own portfolios. However, the Company elects to sell the majority of its fixed rate mortgages into the secondary market while maintaining the servicing of such loans. At December 31, 2007, the Company was servicing a $533 million residential real estate loan portfolio. By originating loans for sale in the secondary market, the Company can more fully satisfy customer demand for fixed rate residential mortgages and increase fee income, while reducing the risk of loss caused by rising interest rates.
The principal source of revenues for the Company is interest and fees on loans, which accounted for 69.1% of total revenues in 2007, 67.6% in 2006 and 63.7% in 2005.
The Company's investment securities portfolio is primarily comprised of U. S. Treasuries, federal agencies, state and municipal bonds, U. S. government sponsored entity's mortgage-backed securities and corporate securities. The Company has classified its entire investment portfolio as available for sale, with fair value changes reported separately in shareholders' equity. Funds invested in the investment portfolio generally represent funds not immediately required to meet loan demand. Income related to the Company's investment portfolio accounted for 14.2% of total revenues in 2007, 16.0% in 2006 and 18.3% in 2005. As of December 31, 2007, the Company had not identified any securities as being "high risk" as defined by the FFIEC Supervisory Policy Statement on Securities Activities.
The primary sources of funds for the Banks are deposits generated in local market areas. To attract and retain stable depositors, the Banks market various programs for demand, savings and time deposit accounts. These programs include interest and non-interest bearing demand and individual retirement accounts.
Currently, national retailing and manufacturing subsidiaries, brokerage and insurance firms and credit unions are fierce competitors within the financial services industry. Mergers between financial institutions within Indiana and neighboring states, which became permissible under the Interstate Banking and Branching Efficiency Act of 1994, have also added competitive pressure.
The Company's Banks are located in predominantly non-metropolitan areas and their business is centered in loans and deposits generated within markets considered largely rural in nature. In addition to competing vigorously with other banks, thrift institutions, credit unions and finance companies located within their service areas, we also compete, directly and indirectly, with all providers of financial services.
Employees
As of December 31, 2007, the Company and its subsidiaries had 805 full-time equivalent employees to whom it provides a variety of benefits and with whom it enjoys excellent relations. None of our employees are subject to collective bargaining agreements.
Regulation and Supervision of the Company
The Company is a financial holding company ("FHC") within the meaning of the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended ("Act"). This Act subjects FHC's to regulations of the Federal Reserve Board ("FRB") and restricts the business of FHC's to financial and related activities.
The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Financial Modernization Act of 1999 was enacted on November 12, 1999. The Modernization Act, which amended the Bank Holding Company Act, provides the following:
•it allows bank holding companies that qualify as "financial holding companies" to engage in a broad range of financial and related activities;
•it allows insurers and other financial services companies to acquire banks;
•it removes various restrictions that applied to bank holding company ownership of securities firms and mutual fund advisory companies; and
•it establishes the overall regulatory structure applicable to bank holding companies that also engage in insurance and securities operations. The Company initially qualified as a financial holding company in December, 2004. Thus the Company is authorized to operate as a financial holding company and is eligible to engage in, or acquire companies engaged in, the broader range of activities that are permitted by the Modernization Act. These activities include those that are determined to be "financial in nature," including insurance underwriting, securities underwriting and dealing, and making merchant banking investments in commercial and financial companies. If any of our banking subsidiaries ceases to be "well capitalized" or "well managed" under applicable regulatory standards, the Federal Reserve Board may, among other things, place limitations on our ability to conduct these broader financial activities or, if the deficiencies persist, require us to divest the banking subsidiary. In addition, if any of our banking subsidiaries receives a rating of less than satisfactory under the Community Reinvestment Act of 1977 ("CRA"), we would be prohibited from engaging in any additional activities other than those permissible for bank holding companies that are not financial holding companies. Our banking subsidiaries currently meet these capital, management and CRA requirements.
Acquisitions by the Company of banks and savings associations are subject to federal and state regulation. Any acquisition by the Company of more than five percent of the voting stock of any bank requires prior approval of the FRB, the FDIC and, if applicable, state regulators. Acquisition of savings associations is also subject to the approval of the OTS and acquisition of national banks is subject to the approval of the OCC.
Indiana law permits FHCs to acquire bank holding companies and banks out of state on a reciprocal basis, subject to certain limitations. Under current law, the Company may acquire banks, and may be acquired by bank holding companies, located in any state in the United States that permits reciprocal entry by Indiana FHCs. Under the Act, FHCs may acquire savings associations without geographic restrictions.
A FHC and its subsidiaries are prohibited from engaging in certain tying arrangements in connection with the extension of credit, lease or sale of property, or the provision of any property or service.
The Company is under the jurisdiction of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and state securities commission for matters relating to the offering and sale of its securities. The Company is subject to the SEC's rules and regulations relating to, among other things, periodic reporting, reporting to shareholders, proxy solicitation and insider trading.
The Company's liquidity is principally derived from dividends paid on the common stock of its subsidiaries. The payment of these dividends is subject to certain regulatory restrictions.
Under bank holding company policy, the Company is expected to act as a source of financial strength to, and commit resources to support, its affiliates. As a result of such policy, the Company may be required to commit resources to its affiliate banks in circumstances where it might not otherwise do so.
Certain regulations define relevant capital measures for five capital categories. A "well capitalized" institution is one that has a total risk-based capital ratio of at least 10%, a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of at least 8%, a leverage ratio of at least 5% and is not subject to regulatory direction to maintain a specific level for any capital measure. An "adequately capitalized" institution is one that has ratios greater than 8%, 4% and 4%. An institution is "undercapitalized" if its respective ratios are less than 8%, 4% and 4%. "Significantly undercapitalized" institutions have ratios of less than 6%, 3% and 3%. An institution is deemed to be "critically undercapitalized" if it has a ratio of tangible equity to total assets that is 2% or less. Institutions with capital ratios at levels of "undercapitalized" or lower are subject to various limitations that, in most situations, will reduce the competitiveness of the institution.
Regulation and Supervision of the Subsidiary Banks
The Company's affiliate banks are supervised, regulated and examined by their respective state regulatory banking agencies and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC"). A cease-and-desist order may be issued against the banks, if the respective agency finds that the activities of the bank represent an unsafe and unsound banking practice or violation of law.
The deposits of the Company's banking subsidiaries are insured to the maximum extent permitted by law by the Deposit Insurance Fund ("DIF") of the FDIC, which was created in 2006 as the result of the merger of the Bank Insurance Fund and the Savings Association Insurance Fund in accordance with the Federal Deposit Insurance Reform Act of 2005 (the "FDI" Act). The FDI Act provided for several additional changes to the deposit insurance system, including adjusting the deposit insurance limits (currently $100,000 for most accounts) every 5 years beginning in 2011 based on an inflation index, increasing the insurance limit for retirement accounts from $100,000 to $250,000, and allocating an aggregate of $4.7 billion of one-time credits to banks to offset the insurance premiums charged to such banks by the FDIC.
Branching by banks in Indiana is subject to the jurisdiction, and requires the prior approval, of the bank's primary federal regulatory authority and, if the branching bank is a state bank, of the Indiana Department of Financial Institutions ("DFI"). Under Indiana law, banks may branch anywhere in the state.
The Company is a legal entity separate and distinct from its subsidiary Banks. There are various legal limitations on the extent to which the Banks can supply funds to the Company. The principal source of the Company's funds consists of dividends from its subsidiary Banks. State and Federal law restricts the amount of dividends that may be paid by banks. In addition, the Banks are subject to certain restrictions on extensions of credit to the Company, on investments in the stock or other securities of the Company and in taking such stock or securities as collateral for loans.
Capital Requirements
The Company and its subsidiary Banks must meet certain minimum capital requirements mandated by each of their state or federal regulators. These regulatory agencies require BHCs and banks to maintain certain minimum ratios of primary capital to total assets and total capital to total assets. The FRB requires BHCs to maintain a minimum Tier 1 leverage ratio of 3 percent capital to total assets; however, for all but the most highly rated institutions which do not anticipate significant growth, the minimum Tier 1 leverage ratio is 3 percent plus an additional cushion of 100 to 200 basis points. As of December 31, 2007, the Company's leverage ratio of capital to total assets was 7.1%. The FRB and FDIC each have approved the imposition of "risk-adjusted" capital ratios on BHCs and financial institutions. The Company's Tier 1 Capital to Risk-Weighted Assets Ratio was 10.0% and its Total Capital to Risk-Weighted Assets Ratio was 10.8% at December 31, 2007. The Company's Banks had capital to asset ratios and risk- adjusted capital ratios at December 31, 2007, in excess of the applicable minimum regulatory requirements.
ITEM 1A.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
In addition to the other information contained in this report, the following risks may affect us. If any of these risks actually occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations may suffer. As a result, the price of our common shares could decline.
Like most banking organizations, our business is highly susceptible to credit risk.
As a lender, we are exposed to the risk that our customers will be unable to repay their loans according to their terms and that the collateral securing the payment of their loans (if any) may not be sufficient to assure repayment. Credit losses could have a material adverse effect on our operating results.
As of December 31, 2007, our total loan portfolio was approximately $1.7 billion or 67% of our total assets. Three major components of the loan portfolio are loans principally secured by real estate, approximately $1.3 billion or 78% of total loans, other commercial loans, approximately $214 million or 13% of total loans, and consumer loans, approximately $127 million or 9% of total loans. Our credit risk with respect to our consumer installment loan portfolio and commercial loan portfolio relates principally to the
general creditworthiness of individuals and businesses within our local market area. Our credit risk with respect to our residential and commercial real estate mortgage and construction loan portfolio relates principally to the general creditworthiness of individuals and businesses and the value of real estate serving as security for the repayment of the loans. A related risk in connection with loans secured by commercial real estate is the effect of unknown or unexpected environmental contamination, which could make the real estate effectively unmarketable or otherwise significantly reduce its value as security.
Our allowance for loan losses may not be sufficient to cover actual loan losses, which could adversely affect our earnings.
We maintain an allowance for loan losses at a level estimated to be sufficient to cover probable incurred loan losses in our loan portfolio. Additional loan losses will likely occur in the future and may occur at a rate greater than we have experienced to date. In determining the size of the allowance, our management makes various assumptions and judgments about the collectibility of our loan portfolio, including the diversification by industry of our commercial loan portfolio, the effect of changes in the local real estate market on collateral values, the results of recent regulatory examinations, the effects on the loan portfolio of current economic indicators and their probable impact on borrowers, the amount of charge-offs for the period, the amount of nonperforming loans and related collateral security, and the evaluation of our loan portfolio by an external loan review. If our assumptions and judgments prove to be incorrect, our current allowance may not be sufficient and adjustments may be necessary to allow for different economic conditions or adverse developments in our loan portfolio. Federal and state regulators also periodically review our allowance for loan losses and may require us to increase our provision for loan losses or recognize further loan charge-offs, based on judgments different than those of our management. Any increase in our allowance for loan losses or loan charge-offs could have an adverse effect on our operating results and financial condition.
We rely heavily on our management and other key personnel, and the loss of any of them may adversely affect our operations.
We are and will continue to be dependent upon the services of our management team. The loss of any of our senior managers could have an adverse effect on our growth and performance because of their skills, knowledge of the markets in which we operate and years of industry experience and the difficulty of promptly finding qualified replacement personnel. The loss of key personnel in a particular market could have an adverse effect on our performance in that market because it may be difficult to find qualified replacement personnel who are already located in or would be willing to relocate to a non-metropolitan market. Recently, our former President and Chief Executive Officer resigned and was replaced by an interim President and CEO, Robert E. Hoptry. We are currently conducting a search for a permanent President and CEO. This transition may be a distraction to senior management, business operations, and customers.
Significant interest rate volatility could reduce our profitability.
Our results of operations are affected principally by net interest income, which is the difference between interest earned on loans and investments and interest expense paid on deposits and other borrowings. We cannot predict or control changes in interest rates. National, regional and local economic conditions and the policies of regulatory authorities, including monetary policies of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, affect market interest rates. While we have instituted policies and procedures designed to manage the risks from changes in market interest rates, at any given time our assets and liabilities will likely be affected differently by a given change in interest rates, principally because we do not match the maturities of our loans and investments precisely with our deposits and other funding sources. Changes in interest rates may also affect the level of voluntary prepayments on our loans and the level of financing or refinancing by customers. As of December 31, 2007, we had a negative interest rate gap of 36% of interest earning assets in the one-year time frame. Although this is within our internal policy limits, our earnings will be adversely affected in periods of rising interest rates because, during such periods, the interest expense paid on deposits and borrowings will generally increase more rapidly than the interest income earned on loans and investments. If such an interest rate increase occurred gradually, we would use our established procedures to attempt to mitigate the effects over time. However, if such an interest rate increase occurred rapidly, or interest rates exhibited volatile increases and decreases, we might be unable to mitigate the effects, and our net interest income could suffer significant adverse effects. While management intends to continue to take measures to mitigate interest rate risk, we cannot assure you that such measures will be entirely effective in minimizing our exposure to the risk of rapid changes in interest rates.
The geographic concentration of our markets makes our business highly susceptible to local economic conditions.
Unlike larger banking organizations that are more geographically diversified, our operations are currently concentrated in 30 counties in Indiana, three counties in Illinois, and two counties in Ohio. As a result of this geographic concentration in three fairly contiguous markets, our financial results depend largely upon economic conditions in these market areas. A deterioration in economic conditions in one or all of these markets could result in one or more of the following:
•an increase in loan delinquencies;
•an increase in problem assets and foreclosures;
•a decrease in the demand for our products and services; and
•a decrease in the value of collateral for loans, especially real estate, in turn reducing customers' borrowing power, the value of assets associated with problem loans and collateral coverage. If we do not adjust to rapid changes in the financial services industry, our financial performance may suffer.
We face substantial competition for deposit, credit and trust relationships, as well as other sources of funding in the communities we serve. Competing providers include other banks, thrifts and trust companies, insurance companies, mortgage banking operations, credit unions, finance companies, money market funds and other financial and nonfinancial companies which may offer products functionally equivalent to those offered by our banks. Competing providers may have greater financial resources than we do and offer services within and outside the market areas we serve. In addition to this challenge of attracting and retaining customers for traditional banking services, our competitors now include securities dealers, brokers, mortgage bankers, investment advisors and finance and insurance companies who seek to offer one-stop financial services to their customers that may include services that banks have not been able or allowed to offer to their customers in the past. The increasingly competitive environment is primarily a result of changes in regulation, changes in technology and product delivery systems and the accelerating pace of consolidation among financial service providers. If we are unable to adjust both to increased competition for traditional banking services and changing customer needs and preferences, it could adversely affect our financial performance and your investment in our common stock.
Our historical growth and financial performance trends may not continue if our acquisition strategy is not successful.
Growth in asset size and earnings through acquisitions is an important part of our business strategy. As consolidation of the banking industry continues, the competition for suitable acquisition candidates may increase. We compete with other banking companies for acquisition opportunities, and many of these competitors have greater financial resources and acquisition experience than we do and may be able to pay more for an acquisition than we are able or willing to pay. We also may need additional debt or equity financing in the future to fund acquisitions. We may not be able to obtain additional financing or, if available, it may not be in amounts and on terms acceptable to us. We may use our common stock as the consideration for an acquisition or we may issue additional common stock and use the proceeds for the acquisition. Our issuance of additional securities will dilute your equity interest in us and may have a dilutive effect on our earnings per share. If we are unable to locate suitable acquisition candidates willing to sell on terms acceptable to us, or we are otherwise unable to obtain additional debt or equity financing necessary for us to continue our acquisition strategy, we would be required to find other methods to grow our business and we may not grow at the same rate we have in the past, or at all.
Acquisitions entail risks which could negatively affect our operations.
Acquisitions involve numerous risks, including:
•exposure to asset quality problems of the acquired institution;
•maintaining adequate regulatory capital;
•diversion of management's attention from other business concerns;
•risks and expenses of entering new geographic markets;
•potential significant loss of depositors or loan customers from the acquired institution; and
•exposure to undisclosed or unknown liabilities of an acquired institution. Any of these acquisition risks could result in unexpected losses or expenses and thereby reduce the expected benefits of the acquisition.
Unanticipated costs related to our acquisition strategy could reduce MainSource's future earnings per share.
MainSource believes it has reasonably estimated the likely costs of integrating the operations of the banks it acquires into MainSource and the incremental costs of operating such banks as a part of the MainSource family. However, it is possible that unexpected transaction costs such as taxes, fees or professional expenses or unexpected future operating expenses, such as increased personnel costs or increased taxes, as well as other types of unanticipated adverse developments, could have a material adverse effect on the results of operations and financial condition of MainSource. If unexpected costs are incurred, acquisitions could have a dilutive effect on MainSource's earnings per share. In other words, if MainSource incurs such unexpected costs and expenses as a result of its acquisitions, MainSource believes that the earnings per share of MainSource common stock could be less than they would have been if those acquisitions had not been completed.
MainSource may be unable to successfully integrate the operations of the banks it has acquired and may acquire in the future and retain employees of such banks.
MainSource's acquisition strategy involves the integration of the banks MainSource has acquired and may acquire in the future as MainSource subsidiary banks. The difficulties of integrating the operations of such banks with MainSource and its other subsidiary banks include:
•coordinating geographically separated organizations;
•integrating personnel with diverse business backgrounds;
•combining different corporate cultures; and
•retaining key employees. The process of integrating operations could cause an interruption of, or loss of momentum in, the activities of one or more of MainSource, its subsidiary banks and the banks MainSource has acquired and may acquire in the future and the loss of key personnel. The integration of such banks as MainSource subsidiary banks requires the experience and expertise of certain key employees of such banks who are expected to be retained by MainSource. We cannot be sure, however, that MainSource will be successful in retaining these employees for the time period necessary to successfully integrate such banks' operations as subsidiary banks of MainSource. The diversion of management's attention and any delays or difficulties encountered in connection with the mergers, along with the integration of the banks as MainSource subsidiary banks, could have an adverse effect on the business and results of operation of MainSource.
Changes in governmental regulation and legislation could limit our future performance and growth.
We are subject to extensive state and federal regulation, supervision and legislation that govern almost all aspects of our operations, as well as any acquisitions we may propose to make. Any change in applicable federal or state laws or regulations could have a substantial impact on us, our subsidiary banks and our operations. While we cannot predict what effect any presently contemplated or future changes in the laws or regulations or their interpretations would have on us, these changes could reduce the value of your investment.
Our strategy to minimize Indiana state taxes on our investment portfolio may be unsuccessful.
Since 2002, our Indiana state financial institutions taxes have been reduced by our use of subsidiaries we formed in the State of Nevada to hold a significant portion of our investment portfolio. Nevada has no state or local income tax, and we take the position that none of this income is subject to the Indiana financial institutions tax. For the year ended December 31, 2007, our net savings in Indiana tax from this arrangement (after federal tax) was approximately $900,000. Management believes that this arrangement is permitted under Indiana law, and Indiana tax authorities have not challenged our tax returns in this regard. If we were not permitted to realize state tax savings from this arrangement, it would cause our net income after taxes to be lower in the future, and if Indiana tax authorities challenged our arrangement and were successful in assessing additional taxes, interest and penalties for prior years, we might be forced to take a special charge to our earnings in the amount of the assessment.

Forward-Looking Statements
Except for historical information contained herein, the discussion in this Annual Report includes certain forward-looking statements based upon management expectations. Actual results and experience could differ materially from the anticipated results or other expectations expressed in the Company's forward-looking statements. Factors which could cause future results to differ from these expectations include the following: general economic conditions; legislative and regulatory initiatives; monetary and fiscal policies of the federal government; deposit flows; the cost of funds; general market rates of interest; interest rates on competing investments; demand for loan products; demand for financial services; changes in accounting policies or guidelines; changes in the quality or composition of the Company's loan and investment portfolios; the Company's ability to integrate acquisitions, the impact of our continuing acquisition strategy, and other factors, including the risk factors set forth in Item 1A of this Annual Report on Form 10-K and in other reports we file from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Overview
MainSource Financial Group, Inc. ("MainSource or Company") is a financial holding company whose principal activity is the ownership and management of its three wholly owned subsidiary banks ("Banks"): MainSource Bank headquartered in Greensburg, Indiana, MainSource Bank of Illinois headquartered in Kankakee, Illinois, and MainSource Bank - Ohio headquartered in Troy, Ohio. The banks operate under state charters and are subject to regulation by their respective state regulatory agencies and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Non-banking subsidiaries include MainSource Insurance, LLC and MainSource Title, LLC. Both of these subsidiaries are subject to regulation by the Indiana Department of Insurance. The Company also owns all of the outstanding stock of MainSource Bank - Hobart, although substantially all of the assets of that bank were transferred to MainSource Bank in May, 2007.
Business Strategy
The Company operates under the broad tenets of a long-term strategic plan ("Plan") designed to improve the Company's financial performance, expand its competitive position and enhance long-term shareholder value. The Plan is premised on the belief of the Company's Board of Directors that it can best promote long-term shareholder interests by pursuing strategies which will continue to preserve its community-focused philosophy. The dynamics of the Plan assure continually evolving goals, with the enhancement of shareholder value being the constant, overriding objective. The extent of the Company's success will depend upon how well it anticipates and responds to competitive changes within its markets, the interest rate environment and other external forces.
The Company continued its history of external growth through acquisitions during 2006 by acquiring three whole bank institutions and purchasing five branches from an in-market competitor. In March, 2006, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of Union Community Bancorp ("Union"). In May, 2006, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of HFS Bank, F.S.B. ("HFS"). In June, 2006, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of Peoples Ohio Financial Corporation ("Peoples"). In August, 2006, the Company purchased five branches from First Financial Bank. In total, these acquisitions added approximately $598 million in loans and $490 million in deposits.
In February, 2008, the Company announced the execution of a definitive agreement to acquire 1st Independence Financial Group, Inc. headquartered in Louisville, Kentucky. As of December 31, 2007, 1st Independence had approximately $350 million in assets, $280 million in loans, and $255 million in deposits. The agreement provides that 1st Independence's shareholders will receive $5.475 in cash and .881036 shares of MainSource common stock for each share of 1st Independence stock owned. The transaction value is estimated at $37 million. The consideration to be paid to 1st Independence's shareholders may be adjusted at closing based on the value of 1st Independence's consolidated tangible shareholders' equity, subject to certain adjustments, as well as the closing price of the Company's common stock prior to closing. The transaction, which is expected to close in the third quarter of 2008, is subject to various regulatory approvals and the approval of 1st Independence's shareholders. The Company is continuously reviewing other acquisition targets including branches, whole banks, and other financial service related entities focusing on the four-state Midwest region of Indiana, Illinois, Kentucky, and Ohio.
Results of Operations
Net income was $21,870 in 2007, $22,241 in 2006, and $16,192 in 2005. Earnings per common share on a fully diluted basis were $1.17 in 2007, $1.29 in 2006, and $1.23 in 2005. The decrease from 2006 to 2007 in overall net income and earnings per share was primarily attributable to three factors: the decrease in the Company's net interest margin, the increase in the Company's loan loss provision expense, and the expenses incurred for the data processing system conversions of the Hobart and Crawfordsville affiliates. Key measures of the operating performance of the Company are return on average assets, return on average shareholders' equity, and efficiency ratio. The Company's return on average assets was 0.90% for 2007 compared to 1.06% for 2006 and return on average shareholders' equity was 8.5% in 2007 compared to 10.4% in 2006. The Company's efficiency ratio, which measures the non-interest expenses of the Company as a percentage of its net interest income (on a fully taxable equivalent basis) and its non-interest income, was 64.4% in 2007 compared to 63.6% in 2006.
Net Interest Income
Net interest income and net interest margin are influenced by the volume and yield or cost of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Tax equivalent net interest income of $77,603 in 2007 increased from $71,345 in 2006. Net interest margin, on a fully-taxable equivalent basis, was 3.60% for 2007 compared to 3.81% for the same period a year ago. Due to the relatively flat nature of the yield curve for most of 2007, the Company's cost of funds increased steadily throughout the year and outpaced the increase in the yield on earning assets. Partially offsetting this trend was a favorable shift in the Company's volume and mix of earning assets as lower-yielding residential real estate loans were replaced by higher-yielding commercial loans.
The following table summarizes net interest income (on a tax-equivalent basis) for each of the past three years.

The following table sets forth for the periods indicated a summary of the changes in interest income and interest expense resulting from changes in volume and changes in rates.
Volume/Rate Analysis of Changes in Net Interest Income
(Tax Equivalent Basis)
Provision for Loan Losses
The Company expensed $5,745 in provision for loan losses in 2007. This level of provision allowed the Company to maintain an adequate allowance for loan losses. This topic is discussed in detail under the heading "Loans, Credit Risk and the Allowance and Provision for Loan Losses".
Non-interest Income and Expense
Non-interest Income
Non-interest income was $28,126 for 2007 compared to $23,039 for the same period in 2006. The acquisitions closed in 2006 were the primary driver of this increase as the Company realized the full-year effect in 2007. Non-interest income as a percent of non-interest expense was 41.3% for 2007 compared to 38.6% for 2006.
Total non-interest income was $23,039 for 2006 compared to $17,332 for 2005, an increase of $5,707 and 32.9% The primary drivers of the increase in non-interest income were the acquisitions of the three whole banks in 2006 and the change in securities gains and losses year over year. In total, the acquisitions accounted for approximately $2,175 of non-interest income with approximately half of this income related to service charges on deposit accounts. In 2005, the Company incurred net losses on securities sales of $2,179 compared to net gains on securities sales of $145 in 2006. The securities losses incurred in 2005 were primarily related to the portfolio restructuring that took place at the end of 2005. This restructuring involved the sale of $85 million in under-performing securities and resulted in a pre-tax loss of $2.7 million.
Non-interest Expense
Total non-interest expense was $68,020 in 2007 compared to $59,642 in 2006, an increase of $8,378 and 14.0%. The full-year effect of the 2006 acquisitions was the primary driver of this increase and added approximately $6 million of expenses to 2007. In addition, the Company incurred approximately $900 of expenses related to the data processing system conversions of its Hobart and Crawfordsville, Indiana affiliates.
Total non-interest expense was $59,642 in 2006 compared to $48,576 in 2005, an increase of $11,066 and 22.8%. The primary driver of the increase in non-interest expense was the acquisitions of the three whole banks in 2006. As a result of the 2006 bank acquisitions, the Company added 18 offices to its branch network bringing its total to 80 at the end of 2006. In total, the acquisitions accounted for approximately $9,700 of non-interest expense in 2006 with approximately half of this expense related to salaries and employee benefits. Excluding acquisition-related activity, the Company's non-interest expense would have been approximately $49,950 in 2006, an increase of 2.8%.
Income Taxes
The effective tax rate was 24.0% in 2007, 25.5% in 2006, and 24.2% in 2005. The decrease in the Company's effective tax rate from 2006 to 2007 was primarily attributable to the purchase of a new markets tax credit investment in 2007. The Company and its subsidiaries file consolidated income tax returns.
Balance Sheet
At December 31, 2007, total assets were $2,536,437 compared to $2,429,773 at December 31, 2006, an increase of $107 million. The increase was primarily attributable to the organic growth in the Company's loan portfolio, which grew by $119 million.
Loans, Credit Risk and the Allowance and Provision for Loan Losses
Loans remain the Company's largest concentration of assets and continue to represent the greatest potential risk. The loan underwriting standards observed by the Company's subsidiaries are viewed by management as a means of controlling problem loans and the resulting charge-offs.
The Company's conservative loan underwriting standards have historically resulted in higher loan quality and generally lower levels of net charge-offs than peer group averages. The Company also believes credit risks may be elevated if undue concentrations of loans in specific industry segments and to out-of-area borrowers are incurred. Accordingly, the Company's Board of Directors regularly monitors such concentrations to determine compliance with its loan concentration policy. The Company believes it has no undue concentrations of loans.
Total loans (excluding those held for sale) increased by $119 million from year-end 2006. The increase in commercial loans (including commercial real estate and construction and development loans) was the primary driver of this increase. In total, commercial loans grew by $133 million, or approximately 20%. Residential real estate loans continue to represent the largest portion of the total loan portfolio. With the acquisition of the three thrift institutions in 2006 and their corresponding large residential real estate portfolios, such loans represented 46% of total loans at December 31, 2007 compared to 50% of total loans at the end of 2006.
The following table details the Company's loan portfolio by type of loan.
Loan Portfolio
The following table indicates the amounts of loans (excluding residential and commercial mortgages and consumer loans) outstanding as of December 31, 2007 which, based on remaining scheduled repayments of principal, are due in the periods indicated.
Maturities and Sensitivity to Changes in Interest Rates of Commercial and Construction Loans
The Company regards its ability to identify and correct loan quality problems as one of its greatest strengths. Loans are placed on "non-accrual" status when, in management's judgment, the collateral value and/or the borrower's financial condition does not justify accruing interest. As a general rule, commercial and real estate loans are reclassified to nonaccrual status at or before becoming 90 days past due. Interest previously recorded is reversed and charged against current income. Subsequent interest payments collected on nonaccrual loans are thereafter applied as a reduction of the loan's principal balance. Non-performing loans were $20,493 as of December 31, 2007 compared to $17,481 as of December 31, 2006 and represented 1.21% of total loans at December 31, 2007 versus 1.11% one year ago.
The following table details the Company's non-performing loans as of December 31 for the years indicated.
Non-performing Loans
The provision for loan losses was $5,745 in 2007, $1,819 in 2006, and $1,040 in 2005. The increase in the Company's provision in 2007 was primarily due to the increase in non-performing loans and the increase in net charge-offs during 2007. In addition, the Company allocated additional reserve dollars in the fourth quarter of 2007 to cover its potential exposure in its $50 million land development loan portfolio. Net charge-offs were $4,206 in 2007 compared to $3,363 in 2006 and $3,299 in 2005. As a percentage of average loans, net charge-offs equaled .26%, .25%, and .35% in 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively.
Summary of the Allowance for Loan Losses
Allocation of the Allowance for Loan Losses
The unallocated portion of the Company's allowance for loan losses increased significantly in 2006 as a result of the three whole bank acquisitions and those banks' differing approaches to computing the allowance. During 2007, the acquired entities' loans were subject to the Company's loan review process and fully integrated into the Company's allowance for loan losses allocation methodology. As a result of this process, the allowance dollars were allocated to the appropriate loan categories and the unallocated portion decreased.
Management maintains a list of loans warranting either the assignment of a specific reserve amount or other special administrative attention. This watch list, together with a listing of all classified loans, nonaccrual loans and delinquent loans, is reviewed monthly by the Board of Directors of each banking subsidiary. Additionally, the Company evaluates its consumer and
residential real estate loan pools for probable losses incurred based on historical trends, adjusted by current delinquency and non-performing loan levels.
The ability to absorb loan losses promptly when problems are identified is invaluable to a banking organization. Most often, losses incurred as a result of prompt, aggressive collection actions are much lower than losses incurred after prolonged legal proceedings. Accordingly, the Company observes the practice of quickly initiating stringent collection efforts in the early stages of loan delinquency.
The adequacy of the allowance for loan losses in each subsidiary is reviewed at least quarterly. The determination of the provision amount in any period is based upon management's continuing review and evaluation of loan loss experience, changes in the composition of the loan portfolio, classified loans including non-accrual and impaired loans, current economic conditions, the amount of loans presently outstanding, and the amount and composition of loan growth. The Company's allowance for loan losses was $14,331, or 0.85% of total loans, at December 31, 2007 compared to $12,792, or 0.81% of total loans, at the end of 2006.
During 2006 the Company purchased certain loans that were subject to the accounting treatment under SOP 03-3 (see Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements). At the time of acquisition, these loans had evidence of credit deterioration. In applying this accounting standard, an allowance for loan losses amount was not carried over or established for these loans. Instead these loans are carried at their fair value at date of acquisition including consideration of expected cash flows to be received. The valuation allowance for these purchased loans as of December 31, 2007 was $1,032. Before the adoption of SOP 03-3, this valuation allowance would have been included in the allowance for loan losses balance. Had this amount been included in the allowance for loan losses amount at December 31, 2007, the allowance would have been $15,363, or 0.91% of total loans.
Securities
Securities offer flexibility in the Company's management of interest rate risk, and are the primary means by which the Company provides liquidity and responds to changing maturity characteristics of assets and liabilities. The Company's investment policy prohibits trading activities and does not allow investment in high-risk derivative products or junk bonds.
As of December 31, 2007, all of the securities are classified as "available for sale" ("AFS") and are carried at fair value with unrealized gains and losses, net of taxes, excluded from earnings and reported as a separate component of shareholders' equity. A net unrealized gain of $1,958 was recorded to adjust the AFS portfolio to current market value at December 31, 2007 compared to a net unrealized loss of $2,291 at December 31, 2006.
Investment Securities
(Carrying Values at December 31)
*Adjusted to reflect income related to securities exempt from federal income taxes. Amounts in the table above are based on scheduled maturity dates. Variable interest rates are subject to change not less than annually based upon certain interest rate indexes. Expected maturities will differ from contractual maturities because issuers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.
As of December 31, 2007, there were no corporate bonds and other securities which represented more than 10% of shareholders' equity.
For 2007 the tax equivalent yield of the investment securities portfolio was 5.22%, compared to 5.10% and 4.32% for 2006 and 2005, respectively. The average life of the Company's investment securities portfolio was 4.42 years at December 31, 2007. With a flat to inverted yield curve for a majority of the year, investment activity was focused on sustaining the strategic positioning of the portfolio. The portfolio concentrations were maintained in mortgage related securities as well as tax exempt securities with a focus on discounted product. Entering 2008 the portfolio continues to remain positioned for long term performance with an emphasis on stable cash flows.
Sources of Funds
The Company relies primarily on customer deposits and securities sold under agreement to repurchase ("repurchase agreements"), along with shareholders' equity to fund earning assets. Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") advances are used to provide additional funding. The Company also attempts to obtain deposits through branch and whole bank acquisitions.
Deposits generated within local markets provide the major source of funding for earning assets. Average total deposits were 85.0% and 86.4% of total average earning assets in 2007 and 2006, respectively. Total interest-bearing deposits averaged 89.6% and 89.2% of average total deposits during 2007 and 2006. Management is continuing its efforts to increase the percentage of transaction-related deposits to total deposits due to the positive effect on earnings.
Repurchase agreements are high denomination investments utilized by public entities and commercial customers as an element of their cash management responsibilities. During 2007, repurchase agreements averaged $37,296, with an average cost of 3.05%.
Another source of funding is the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB). The Company had FHLB advances of $257,099 outstanding at December 31, 2007. These advances have interest rates ranging from 3.4% to 6.4% (see note 9 to the consolidated financial statements for the maturity schedule of these advances). The Company averaged $224,624 in FHLB advances during 2007 compared to $176,895 during 2006. This increase in the average balance of FHLB borrowings was primarily due to the full-year effect of the acquisitions of the thrift institutions in 2006 and their significant reliance on wholesale borrowings.
Average Deposits
As of December 31, 2007, certificates of deposit and other time deposits of $100 or more mature as follows:
Capital Resources
The Federal Reserve Board and other regulatory agencies have adopted risk-based capital guidelines that assign risk weightings to assets and off-balance sheet items. The Company's core capital ("Tier 1") consists of common shareholders' equity adjusted for unrealized gains or losses on available for sale (AFS) securities plus limited amounts of Trust Preferred Securities less goodwill and intangible assets. Total capital consists of core capital, certain debt instruments and a portion of the allowance for loan losses. At December 31, 2007, Tier 1 capital to average assets was 7.1%. Total capital to risk-weighted assets was 10.8%. Both ratios exceed all required ratios established for bank holding companies. Risk-adjusted capital levels of each of the Company's subsidiary banks exceed regulatory definitions of well-capitalized institutions.
The Trust Preferred Securities (which are classified as subordinated debentures) qualify as Tier 1 capital or core capital with respect to the Company under the risk-based capital guidelines established by the Federal Reserve. Under such guidelines, capital received from the proceeds of the sale of these securities cannot constitute more than 25% of the total Tier 1 capital of the Company. Consequently, the amount of Trust Preferred Securities in excess of the 25% limitation constitutes Tier 2 capital, or supplementary capital, of the Company. As of December 31, 2007, all of the Company's Trust Preferred Securities qualify as Tier 1 capital.
Common shareholders' equity is impacted by the Company's decision to categorize its securities portfolio as available for sale (AFS). Securities in this category are carried at fair value, and common shareholders' equity is adjusted to reflect unrealized gains and losses, net of taxes.
The Company declared and paid common dividends of $.555 per share in 2007 compared to $.529 and $.495 in 2006 and 2005 respectively. Book value per common share increased to $14.22 at December 31, 2007 compared to $13.50 at the end of 2006. The net adjustment for AFS securities increased book value per share by $.07 at December 31, 2007 and decreased book value per share by $.08 at December 31, 2006. Depending on market conditions, the adjustment for AFS securities can cause significant fluctuations in shareholders' equity.
Liquidity
Liquidity management involves maintaining sufficient cash levels to fund operations and to meet the requirements of borrowers, depositors and creditors. Higher levels of liquidity bear higher corresponding costs, measured in terms of lower yields on short-term, more liquid earning assets and higher interest expense involved in extending liability maturities. Liquid assets include cash and cash equivalents, loans and securities maturing within one year and money market instruments. In addition, the Company holds approximately $416 million of AFS securities maturing after one year, which can be sold to meet liquidity needs.
Maintaining a relatively stable funding base, which is achieved by diversifying funding sources, supports liquidity, extends the contractual maturity of liabilities, and limits reliance on volatile short-term purchased funds. Short-term funding needs may arise from declines in deposits or other funding sources, funding of loan commitments and requests for new loans. The Company's strategy is to fund assets to the maximum extent possible with core deposits, which provide a sizable source of relatively stable low-cost funds. The Company defines core deposits as all deposits except certificates of deposits greater than $100. Average core deposits funded approximately 71.6% of total earning assets during 2007 and approximately 74.1% in 2006.
Management believes the Company has sufficient liquidity to meet all reasonable borrower, depositor and creditor needs in the present economic environment. The Company has not received any directives from regulatory authorities that would materially affect liquidity, capital resources or operations.
Contractual Obligations as of December 31, 2007
Interest Rate Risk Management
Interest rate risk is the exposure of the Company's financial condition to adverse changes in market interest rates. In an effort to estimate the impact of sustained interest rate movements to the Company's earnings, the Company monitors interest rate risk through computer-assisted simulation modeling of its net interest income. The Company's simulation modeling monitors the potential impact to net interest income under various interest rate scenarios. The Company's objective is to actively manage its asset/liability position within a one-year interval and to limit the risk in any of the interest rate scenarios to a reasonable level of tax-equivalent net interest income within that interval. The Company monitors compliance within established guidelines of the Funds Management Policy. See Item 7A.
ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The Company's exposure to market risk is reviewed on a regular basis by the Asset/Liability Committees and Boards of Directors of the Company and its subsidiary banks. Primary market risks, which impact the Company's operations, are liquidity risk and interest rate risk, as discussed above.
As discussed previously, the Company monitors interest rate risk by the use of computer simulation modeling to estimate the potential impact on its net interest income under various interest rate scenarios. Another method by which the Company's interest rate risk position can be estimated is by computing estimated changes in its net portfolio value ("NPV"). This method estimates interest rate risk exposure from movements in interest rates by using interest rate sensitivity analysis to determine the change in the NPV of discounted cash flows from assets and liabilities. Computations are based on a number of assumptions, including the relative levels of market interest rates and prepayments in mortgage loans and certain types of investments. These computations do not contemplate any actions management may undertake in response to changes in interest rates, and should not be relied upon as indicative of actual results. In addition, certain shortcomings are inherent in the method of computing NPV. Should interest rates remain or decrease below current levels, the proportion of adjustable rate loans could decrease in future periods due to refinancing activity. In the event of an interest rate change, prepayment levels would likely be different from those assumed in the table. Lastly, the ability of many borrowers to repay their adjustable rate debt may decline during a rising interest rate environment.
The following table provides an assessment of the risk to NPV in the event of sudden and sustained 1% and 2% increases and decreases in prevailing interest rates. The table indicates that as of December 31, 2007 the Company's estimated NPV might be expected to increase in the event of an increase in prevailing interest rates, and might be expected to decrease in the event of a decrease to prevailing interest rates (dollars in thousands).
The above discussion, and the portions of MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS in Item 7 of this Report that are referenced in the above discussion contains statements relating to future results of the Company that are considered "forward-looking-statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements relate to, among other things, simulation of the impact on net interest income from changes in interest rates. Actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied therein as a result of certain risks and uncertainties, including those risks and uncertainties expressed above, those that are described in MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS in Item 7 of this Report, those that are described in Item 1 of this Report, "Business," under the caption "Forward-Looking-Statements and Associated Risks," and those that are described in Item 1A of this Report, "Risk Factors", all of which discussions are incorporated herein by reference.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
Board of Directors and Shareholders
MainSource Financial Group, Inc.
Greensburg, Indiana
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of MainSource Financial Group, Inc. as of December 31, 2007 and 2006 and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in shareholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2007. We also have audited MainSource Financial Group, Inc.'s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). MainSource Financial Group, Inc.'s management is responsible for these financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and an opinion on the company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audits of the financial statements included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.
A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of MainSource Financial Group, Inc. as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2007, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion MainSource Financial Group, Inc. maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the COSO.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Dollar amounts in thousands except per share data)
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of Operations and Principles of Consolidation: The consolidated financial statements include MainSource Financial Group, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, together referred to as "the Company". Intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation.
The Company's wholly owned subsidiaries include MainSource Bank, MainSource Bank of Illinois, and MainSource Bank - Ohio (collectively referred to herein as the "Banks"), and MainSource Insurance, LLC, and MainSource Title, LLC. In February 2007, the Company transferred substantially all of the assets of MainSource Mortgage, LLC into MainSource Bank. In May 2007, the Company transferred substantially all of the assets of MainSource Bank - Hobart into MainSource Bank. In September 2007, the Company merged MainSource Bank - Crawfordsville into MainSource Bank.
The Company provides financial services through its offices in Indiana, Illinois, and Ohio. Its primary deposit products are checking, savings, and term certificate accounts, and its primary lending products are residential mortgage, commercial, and installment loans. Substantially all loans are secured by specific items of collateral including business assets, consumer assets and real estate. Commercial loans are expected to be repaid from cash flow from operations of businesses. Real estate loans are secured by both residential and commercial real estate. Other financial instruments which potentially represent concentrations of credit risk include deposit accounts in other financial institutions and federal funds sold.
Use of Estimates: To prepare financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management makes estimates and assumptions based on available information. These estimates and assumptions affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the disclosures provided and actual results could differ. The allowance for loan losses, loan servicing rights, and fair values of financial instruments are particularly subject to change.
Cash Flows: Cash and cash equivalents include cash and due from banks, interest bearing deposits with other financial institutions with maturities under 90 days, money market funds and federal funds sold. Net cash flows are reported for loan and deposit transactions, federal funds purchased and repurchase agreements.
Interest-bearing Deposits in Other Financial Institutions: Interest-bearing deposits in other financial institutions mature within one year and are carried at cost.
Securities: Securities are classified as available for sale when they might be sold before maturity. Securities available for sale are carried at fair value, with unrealized holding gains and losses reported in other comprehensive income, net of tax.
Interest income includes amortization of purchase premium or discount. Premiums and discounts on securities are amortized on the level-yield method, which considers prepayments on mortgage-backed securities. Gains and losses on sales are based on the amortized cost of the security sold. Declines in the fair value of securities below their cost that are other than temporary are reflected as realized losses. In estimating other-than-temporary losses, management considers the length of time and extent that fair value has been less than cost, the financial condition and near term prospects of the issuer, and the Company's ability and intent to hold the security for a period sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.
Loans Held for Sale: Loans originated and intended for sale in the secondary market are carried at the lower of cost or market in the aggregate. Net unrealized losses, if any, are recorded as a valuation allowance and charged to earnings.
Mortgage loans held for sale are generally sold with servicing rights retained. The carrying value of mortgage loans sold is reduced by the amount allocated to the servicing right. Gains and losses on sales of mortgage loans are based on the difference between the selling price and the carrying value of the related loan sold.
Loans: Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff are reported at the principal balance outstanding, net of unearned interest, deferred loan fees and costs, and an allowance for loan losses. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance. Loan originations fees, net of certain direct origination costs, are deferred and recognized in interest income using the level-yield method without anticipating prepayments.
Interest income is not reported when full loan repayment is in doubt, typically when the loan is impaired or payments are past due over 90 days. Loans are placed on non-accrual or charged-off at an earlier date if collection of principal or interest is considered doubtful.
All interest accrued but not received for loans placed on nonaccrual is reversed against interest income. Payments received on such loans subsequent to being placed on non-accrual are applied to the principal balance of the loans. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.
Purchased Loans: The Company purchases individual loans and groups of loans. Purchased loans that show evidence of credit deterioration since origination are recorded at the amount paid (or allocated fair value in a purchase business combination), such that there is no carryover of the seller's allowance for loan losses. After acquisition, incurred losses are recognized by an increase in the allowance for loan losses.
Purchased loans are accounted for individually based on common risk characteristics (e.g., credit score, loan type, and date of origination). The Company estimates the amount and timing of expected cash flows for each purchased loan, and the expected cash flows in excess of amount paid is recorded as interest income over the remaining life of the loan (accretable yield). The excess of the loan's contractual principal and interest over expected cash flows is not recorded (nonaccretable difference).
Over the life of the loan, expected cash flows continue to be estimated. If the present value of expected cash flows is less than the carrying amount, a loss is recorded. If the present value of expected cash flows is greater than the carrying amount, it is recognized as part of future interest income.
Allowance for Loan Losses: The allowance for loan losses is a valuation allowance for probable incurred credit losses. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. Management estimates the allowance balance required using past loan loss experience, the nature and volume of the portfolio, information about specific borrower situations and estimated collateral values, economic conditions, and other factors. Allocations of the allowance may be made for specific loans, but the entire allowance is available for any loan that, in management's judgment, should be charged-off.
The allowance consists of specific and general components. The specific component relates to loans that are individually classified as impaired or loans otherwise classified as substandard or doubtful. The general component covers pools of other loans and is based on historical loss experience adjusted for current factors.
A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower's prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Impairment is measured on a loan by loan basis for commercial and construction loans by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate, the loan's obtainable market price, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. Large groups of smaller balance homogeneous loans are collectively evaluated for impairment. Accordingly, the Company does not separately identify individual consumer and residential real estate loans for impairment disclosures.
Restricted Stock: The Bank is a member of the "FHLB" system. Members are required to own a certain amount of stock based on the level of borrowings and other factors, and may invest in additional amounts. FHLB stock is carried at cost, classified as a restricted security, and periodically evaluated for impairment. Because this stock is viewed as a long term investment, impairment is based on ultimate recovery of par value. Both cash and stock dividends are reported as income.
Premises and Equipment: Land is carried at cost. Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Buildings and related components are depreciated using the straight-line method with useful lives ranging from 30 to 39 years for buildings and 5 to 15 years for related components. Furniture, fixtures and equipment are depreciated using the straight-line method with useful lives ranging from 3 to 10 years.
Foreclosed Assets: Assets acquired through or instead of loan foreclosure are initially recorded at fair value when acquired net of estimated selling costs, establishing a new cost basis. If fair value declines after acquisition, a valuation allowance is recorded through expense. Costs after acquisition are expensed.
Company Owned Life Insurance: The Company has purchased life insurance policies on certain employees. Company owned life insurance is recorded at its cash surrender value, or the amount that can be realized. Upon adoption of EITF 06-5, which is discussed further below, Company owned life insurance is recorded at the amount that can be realized under the insurance contract at the balance sheet date, which is the cash surrender value adjusted for other charges or other amounts due that are probable at settlement. Prior to adoption of EITF 06-5, the Company recorded owned life insurance at its cash surrender value. In September 2006, the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force finalized Issue No. 06-5, Accounting for Purchases of Life Insurance - Determining the Amount That Could Be Realized in Accordance with FASB Technical Bulletin No. 85-4 (Accounting for Purchases of Life Insurance). This Issue requires that a policyholder consider contractual terms of a life insurance policy in determining the amount that could be realized under the insurance contract. It also requires that if the contract provides for a greater surrender value if all individual policies in a group are surrendered at the same time, that the surrender value be determined based on the assumption that
policies will be surrendered on an individual basis. Lastly, the Issue requires disclosure when there are contractual restrictions on the Company's ability to surrender a policy. The adoption of EITF 06-5 on January 1, 2007 had no impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operation.
Servicing Assets: Servicing rights are recognized separately when they are acquired through sales of loans. For sales of mortgage loans prior to January 1, 2007, a portion of the cost of the loan was allocated to the servicing right based on relative fair values. The Company adopted SFAS No. 156 on January 1, 2007, and for sales of mortgage loans beginning in 2007, servicing rights are initially recorded at fair value with the income statement effect recorded in gains on sales of loans. Fair value is based on market prices for comparable mortgage servicing contracts, when available, or alternatively, is based on a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing income. The valuation model incorporates assumptions that market participants would use in estimating future net servicing income, such as the cost to service, the discount rate, the custodial earnings rate, an inflation rate, ancillary income, prepayment speeds and default rates and losses. The Company compares the valuation model inputs and results to published industry data in order to validate the model results and assumptions. All classes of servicing assets are subsequently measured using the amortization method which requires servicing rights to be amortized into non-interest income in proportion to, and over the period of, the estimated future net servicing income of the underlying loans.
Servicing assets are evaluated for impairment based upon the fair value of the rights as compared to carrying amount. Impairment is determined by stratifying rights into groupings based on predominant risk characteristics, such as interest rate, loan type and investor type. Impairment is recognized through a valuation allowance for an individual grouping, to the extent that fair value is less than the carrying amount. If the Company later determines that all or a portion of the impairment no longer exists for a particular grouping, a reduction of the allowance may be recorded as an increase to income. Changes in valuation allowances are reported with mortgage banking on the income statement. The fair values of servicing rights are subject to significant fluctuations as a result of changes in estimated and actual prepayment speeds and default rates and losses.
Servicing fee income which is reported on the income statement as mortgage banking is recorded for fees earned for servicing loans. The fees are based on a contractual percentage of the outstanding principal; or a fixed amount per loan and are recorded as income when earned. The amortization of mortgage servicing rights is netted against loan servicing fee income. Servicing fees totaled $1,304, $1,374 and $1,381 for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005. Late fees and ancillary fees related to loan servicing are not material.
Mortgage banking income consists of gains on loan sales and loan servicing fee income, net of amortization of mortgage servicing rights.
Transfers of Financial Assets: Transfers of financial assets are accounted for as sales when control over the assets has been surrendered. Control over transferred assets is deemed to be surrendered when the assets have been isolated from the Company, the transferee obtains the right (free of conditions that constrain it from taking advantage of that right) to pledge or exchange the transferred assets, and the Company does not maintain effective control over the transferred assets through an agreement or option to repurchase them before their maturity.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets: Goodwill results from business acquisitions and represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of acquired tangible assets and liabilities and identifiable intangible assets. Goodwill is assessed at least annually for impairment and any such impairment will be recognized in the period identified.
Other intangible assets consist largely of core deposit intangibles arising from whole bank and branch acquisitions. They are initially measured at fair value and then are amortized on an accelerated method over their estimated useful lives, generally ten years.
Long-term Assets: Premises and equipment and other long-term assets are reviewed for impairment when events indicate their carrying amount may not be recoverable from future undiscounted cash flows. If impaired, the assets are recorded at fair value.
Repurchase Agreements: Substantially all repurchase agreement liabilities represent amounts advanced by various customers. Securities are pledged to cover these liabilities, which are not covered by federal deposit insurance. Repurchase agreements are included in other borrowings on the consolidated balance sheets.
Income Taxes: Income tax expense is the total of the current year income tax due or refundable and the change in deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are the expected future tax amounts for the temporary differences between carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities, computed using enacted tax rates. A valuation allowance, if needed, reduces deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
The Company adopted FASB Interpretation 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes ("FIN 48"), as of January 1, 2007. A tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is "more likely than not" that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the "more likely than not" test, no tax benefit is recorded. The adoption resulted in an increase in the Company's tax liability of $411.
The Company recognizes interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense.
Loan Commitments and Related Financial Instruments: Financial instruments include off-balance sheet credit instruments, such as commitments to make loans and commercial letters of credit, issued to meet customer financing needs. The face amount for these items represents the exposure to loss, before considering customer collateral or ability to repay. Such financial instruments are recorded when they are funded.
Derivatives: All derivative instruments are recorded at their fair values. If derivative instruments are designated as hedges of fair values, both the change in fair value of the hedge and the hedged item are included in current earnings. Fair value adjustments related to cash flow hedges are recorded in other comprehensive income and reclassified to earnings when the hedged transaction is reflected in earnings. Ineffective portions of hedges are reflected in earnings as they occur.
The Company settled its interest rate swap in 2006 and is not currently a party to any such transactions.
Stock Compensation: Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 123(R), Share-based Payment, using the modified prospective transition method. Accordingly, the Company has recorded stock-based employee compensation cost using the fair value method starting in 2006.
Prior to January 1, 2006, employee compensation expense under stock options was reported using the intrinsic value method; therefore, no stock-based compensation cost is reflected in net income for the year ending December 31, 2005 as all options granted had an exercise price equal to or greater than the market price of the underlying common stock at date of grant.
The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if expense was measured using the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, for the year ended December 31, 2005. During 2005, the Company accelerated vesting on selected pools of stock options granted in order to reduce expense that would have been recognized upon adoption of FAS 123(R).
Retirement Plans: Employee 401(k) and profit sharing plan expense is the amount of matching contributions.
Earnings Per Common Share: Basic earnings per common share is net income divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share includes the dilutive effect of additional potential common shares issuable under stock options. Earnings and dividends per share are restated for all stock splits and dividends through the date of issue of the financial statements.
Comprehensive Income: Comprehensive income consists of net income and other comprehensive income. Other comprehensive income includes unrealized gains and losses on securities available for sale and unrealized gains and losses on cash flow hedges, which are also recognized as a separate component of equity.
Loss Contingencies: Loss contingencies, including claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business, are recorded as liabilities when the likelihood of loss is probable and an amount or range of loss can be reasonably estimated. Management does not believe there are now any such matters that will have a material effect on the financial statements.
Equity: Stock dividends in excess of 20% are reported by transferring the par value of the stock issued from retained earnings to common stock. Stock dividends for 20% or less are reported by transferring the fair value, as of the ex-dividend date, of the stock issued from retained earnings to common stock and additional paid-in capital. Fractional share amounts are paid in cash with a reduction in retained earnings.
Dividend Restriction: Banking regulations require maintaining certain capital levels and may limit the dividends paid by the banks to the holding company or by the holding company to shareholders.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments: Fair values of financial instruments are estimated using relevant market information and other assumptions, as more fully disclosed in a separate note. Fair value estimates involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment regarding interest rates, credit risk, prepayments, and other factors, especially in the absence of broad markets for particular items. Changes in assumptions or in market conditions could significantly affect the estimates.
Operating Segments: While the Company's chief decision-makers monitor the revenue streams of the various Company products and services, the identifiable segments are not material and operations are managed and financial performance is evaluated on a Company-wide basis. Accordingly, all of the Company's financial service operations are considered by management to be aggregated in one reportable operating segment.
Reclassifications: Some items in the prior year financial statements were reclassified to conform to the current presentation.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards: During 2007, the Company adopted the following accounting standards and guidance:
Effective January 1, 2007, the Company adopted FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (FIN 48), which prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. As mentioned above in the income taxes section, the Company recorded an increase in its tax liability account of $411 by adopting this standard
In February 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 155, Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments (SFAS No. 155), which permits fair value remeasurement for hybrid financial instruments that contain an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation. Additionally, SFAS No. 155 clarifies the accounting guidance for beneficial interests in securitizations. Under SFAS No. 155, all beneficial interests in a securitization will require an assessment in accordance with SFAS No. 133 to determine if an embedded derivative exists within the instrument. In January 2007, the FASB issued Derivatives Implementation Group Issue B40, Application of Paragraph 13(b) to Securitized Interests in Prepayable Financial Assets (DIG Issue B40). DIG Issue B40 provides an exemption from the embedded derivative test of paragraph 13(b) of SFAS No. 133 for instruments that would otherwise require bifurcation if the test is met solely because of a prepayment feature included within the securitized interest and prepayment is not controlled by the security holder. SFAS No. 155 and DIG Issue B40 were effective for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2006. The adoption of SFAS No. 155 and DIG Issue B40 did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations.
Effect of Newly Issued But Not Yet Effective Accounting Standards:
In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. This Statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement establishes a fair value hierarchy about the assumptions used to measure fair value and clarifies assumptions about risk and the effect of a restriction on the sale or use of an asset. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. Management is currently evaluating the impact but expects it to not be material.
In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. The standard provides companies with an option to report selected financial assets and liabilities at fair value and establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between companies that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. The new standard is effective for the Company on January 1, 2008. The Company did not elect the fair value option for any financial assets or financial liabilities as of January 1, 2008.
In September 2006, the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force finalized Issue No. 06-4, Accounting for Deferred Compensation and Postretirement Benefit Aspects of Endorsement Split-Dollar Life Insurance Arrangements. This issue requires that a liability be recorded during the service period when a split-dollar life insurance agreement continues after participants' employment or retirement. The required accrued liability will be based on either the post-employment benefit cost for the continuing life insurance or based on the future death benefit depending on the contractual terms of the underlying agreement. This issue is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007. The Company has determined that the adoption of this EITF will not have a material effect on the financial statements.
On November 5, 2007, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 109, Written Loan Commitments Recorded at Fair Value through Earnings ("SAB 109"). Previously, SAB 105, Application of Accounting Principles to Loan Commitments, stated that in measuring the fair value of a derivative loan commitment, a company should not incorporate the expected net future cash flows related to the associated servicing of the loan. SAB 109 supersedes SAB 105 and indicates that the expected net future cash flows related to the associated servicing of the loan should be included in measuring fair value for all written loan commitments that are accounted for at fair value through earnings. SAB 105 also indicated that internally-developed intangible assets should not be recorded as part of the fair value of a derivative loan commitment, and SAB 109 retains that view. SAB 109 is effective for derivative
loan commitments issued or modified in fiscal quarters beginning after December 15, 2007. The Company does not expect the impact of this standard to be material.
NOTE 2 - RESTRICTION ON CASH AND DUE FROM BANKS
The Banks are required to maintain reserve funds in cash or on deposit with the Federal Reserve Bank which do not earn interest. The reserves required at December 31, 2007 and 2006 were $12,972 and $17,573 respectively. The Company also had compensating balances of $4,970 and $4,499 at December 31, 2007 and 2006 respectively.
NOTE 3 - SECURITIES
The fair value of securities available for sale and gross related unrealized gains and losses recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) was as follows:
Contractual maturities of securities at December 31, 2007 were as follows. Securities not due at a single maturity or with no maturity at year end are shown separately.
Gross proceeds from sales of securities available for sale during 2007, 2006 and 2005 were $91,057, $26,075, and $106,556. Gross gains of $642, $166, and $294 and gross losses of $28, $21, and $2,473 were realized on those sales in 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The tax benefit (provision) related to these net realized gains and losses was ($221), ($56), and $796 respectively.
Securities with a carrying value of $180,691 and $165,683 were pledged at December 31, 2007 and 2006 to secure certain deposits, repurchase agreements and for other purposes as permitted or required by law.
At year end 2007 and 2006, there were no holdings of securities of any one issuer, other than the U.S. Government and its sponsored entities in an amount greater than 10% of shareholders' equity.
Below is a summary of securities with unrealized losses as of year-end 2007 and 2006 presented by length of time the securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position.
Unrealized losses on state and municipal securities have not been recognized into income because management has the intent and ability to hold for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value. The fair value of these debt securities is expected to recover as the securities approach their maturity date.
Unrealized losses on mortgage-backed securities and agencies have not been recognized into income as the decline in fair value is largely due to increases in market interest rates. The fair value is expected to recover as the securities approach their maturity date and/or market rates decline.
During 2007, the Company identified one security that is considered to be other than temporarily impaired. The Company wrote down the value of that security by $500 to its fair value. This amount was included in net realized gains/(losses) on securities.
NOTE 4 - LOANS AND ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES
Loans were as follows:
Activity in the allowance for loan losses was as follows:
Impaired loans were as follows:
Nonperforming loans were as follows:
Nonperforming loans include both smaller balance homogeneous loans that are collectively evaluated for impairment and individually classified impaired loans.
Purchased Loans subject to SOP 03-3
The Company has purchased loans in 2006, for which there was, at acquisition, evidence of deterioration of credit quality since origination and it was probable, at acquisition, that all contractually required payments would not be collected. The carrying amount of those loans is as follows as of December 31:
Accretable yield, or income expected to be collected is as follows:
For those purchased loans disclosed above, the Company increased the allowance for loan losses by $565 and $0 during 2007 and 2006. No allowance for loan losses were reversed in 2007 or 2006. These loans were considered impaired at December 31, 2007 and 2006 and no accretable yield was assigned at the date of acquisition.
Purchased loans for which it was probable at acquisition that all contractually required payments would not be collected are shown below. No such loans were acquired in 2007.
NOTE 5 - PREMISES AND EQUIPMENT
Depreciation expense was $4,174, $3,869, and $3,087 in 2007, 2006 and 2005.
NOTE 6 - GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS
Goodwill
The change in carrying amount of goodwill is as follows:
The acquired goodwill reported in 2007 is due to finalization of fair value adjustments related to purchase accounting for the 2006 acquisitions.
Acquired Intangible Assets
Aggregate amortization expense was $2,666, $2,236, and $1,306 for 2007, 2006, and 2005.
Estimated amortization expense for each of the next five years follows:
NOTE 7 - DEPOSITS
Certificates and other time deposits mature as follows:
NOTE 8 - OTHER BORROWINGS
Securities sold under repurchase agreements ("agreements") consist of obligations secured by securities issued by Government-sponsored entities, and a safekeeping agent holds such collateral. The maximum amount of outstanding repurchase agreements at any month-end during 2007, 2006, and 2005 totaled $52,986, $36,212, and $28,581. The daily average of such agreements during 2007, 2006, and 2005 totaled $37,296, $23,200, and $21,661. The weighted average rate was 3.05%, 3.31%, and 2.36% at December 31, 2007, 2006, and 2005 while the weighted average rate during 2007, 2006, and 2005 was approximately 3.35%, 3.22%, and 1.98% respectively. The majority of the agreements at December 31, 2007 mature within 30 days.
The Company has a revolving credit facility for $30,000 as a standby for funding needs which matures September 30, 2009. The interest rate is 120 basis points above the 3-month LIBOR rate which resulted in a rate of 6.24% at year-end 2007. The line is secured by the stock of MainSource Bank. The line of credit agreement contains various financial and non-financial covenants. The Company was in compliance with these covenants at December 31, 2007.
NOTE 9 - FEDERAL HOME LOAN BANK ADVANCES
Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") advances at year end were as follows:
The majority of the FHLB advances are secured by first mortgage loans totaling approximately 150% of the advance under a blanket security agreement. The advances are subject to restrictions or penalties in the event of prepayment.
Maturities over the next five years are:
NOTE 10 - SUBORDINATED DEBENTURES
The Company formed four separate trusts in 2002, 2003, and 2006 that issued floating rate trust preferred securities as part of pooled offerings. The Company issued subordinated debentures to the trusts in exchange for the proceeds of the offerings, which debentures represent the sole asset of the trusts. In accordance with FASB Interpretation No. 46, the trusts are not consolidated with the Company's financial statements, but rather the subordinated debentures are shown as a liability. Interest payments are payable quarterly in arrears and the Company has the option to defer interest payments from time to time for a period not to exceed 20 consecutive quarters. The subordinated debentures mature in 30 years from issuance and can be called anytime after five years at par. The subordinated debentures may be included in Tier 1 capital (with certain limitations) under current regulatory guidelines and interpretations. The following table summarizes the other terms of each issuance.
During 2003, the Company entered into an interest rate swap and cap to mitigate overall risk to changes in interest rates for subordinated debt in Trust 2. Both the interest rate swap and the cap had a 60 month term and a notional principal amount of $14,000. The notional amount of the interest rate swaps do not represent amounts exchanged by the parties. The amount exchanged is determined by reference to the notional amounts and other terms of the contract. The interest rate swap and cap were designated as cash flow hedges against a portion of the subordinated debentures. As such, the aggregate fair value of the swaps were recorded as other assets or other liabilities with changes in the fair value recorded in other comprehensive income and no amount of ineffectiveness was included in net income. Under the interest rate swap agreement, the Company made fixed rate payments at 6.65%, and received variable payments based on LIBOR. Net settlement expense or benefit was included in interest expense. The interest rate cap required the counter-party to pay the Company the excess of 3 month LIBOR over 12%. The interest rate swap and cap were settled during 2006 resulting in a payment to the Company of $483.
NOTE 11 - LOAN SERVICING
Loans serviced for others are not included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Loan servicing fee income was $1,303, $1,383, and $1,318 for 2007, 2006, and 2005. The unpaid principal balances of loans serviced for others totaled $533,286 and $521,908 at December 31, 2007 and 2006. Custodial escrow balances maintained in connection with serviced loans were $1,001 and $903 at year end 2007 and 2006. Mortgage servicing rights are included in other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. The fair value of capitalized mortgage servicing assets is based on comparable market values and expected cash flows, with impairment assessed based on portfolio characteristics including product type and interest rates. No valuation allowance was necessary during 2007, 2006 or 2005. The fair market value of capitalized mortgage servicing rights was estimated at $4,922 and $6,419 at year end 2007 and 2006. Fair value at year-end 2007 was determined using a discount rate of 10%, and prepayment speeds ranging from 190% to 353%, depending on the stratification of the specific right.
The weighted average amortization period is 5.1 years. Estimated amortization expense for each of the next five years is:
NOTE 12 - INCOME TAX
Income tax expense (benefit) was as follows:
Effective tax rates differ from the federal statutory rate of 35% applied to income before income taxes due to the following:
The components of the net deferred tax asset (liability) are as follows:
The Company has an Indiana state operating loss carryforward of $29,153, which begins to expire in 2019. The Company maintains a valuation allowance as it does not anticipate generating taxable income in Indiana to utilize this carryforward prior to expiration.
Retained earnings of certain subsidiary banks include approximately $10,977 for which no deferred income tax liability has been recognized. This amount represents an allocation of income to bad debt deductions as of December 31, 1987 for tax purposes only. Reduction of amounts so allocated for purposes other than tax bad debt losses including redemption of bank stock or excess dividends, or loss of "bank" status would create income for tax purposes only, which would be subject to the then-current corporate income tax rate. The unrecorded deferred income tax liability on the above amount for the Company at December 31, 2007 was approximately $3,842.
Unrecognized Tax Benefits
A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:
Of this total, $1,023 represents the amount of unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would favorably affect the effective income tax rate in future periods. The Company does not expect the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits to significantly increase or decrease in the next twelve months.
The total amount of interest and penalties recorded in the income statement for the year ended December 31, 2007 was $53, and the amount accrued for interest and penalties at December 31, 2007 was $128.
The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as income tax of the states of Indiana and Illinois. The Company is no longer subject to examination by taxing authorities for years before 2003.
NOTE 13 - OTHER COMPREHENSIVE INCOME
NOTE 14 - COMMITMENTS
Some financial instruments, such as loan commitments, credit lines, letters of credit, and overdraft protection, are issued to meet customer financing needs. These are agreements to provide credit or to support the credit of others, as long as conditions established in the contract are met, and usually have expiration dates. Commitments may expire without being used. Off-balance-sheet risk to credit loss exists up to the face amount of these instruments, although material losses are not anticipated. The same credit policies are used to make such commitments as are used for loans, including obtaining collateral at exercise of the commitment.
Financial instruments whose contract amount represents credit risk as of December 31 were as follows:
Commitments to make loans are generally made for periods of 60 days or less. The fixed loan commitments have interest rates ranging from 5.50% to 9.25% and maturities up to a year in length.
NOTE 15 - STOCK DIVIDENDS AND SPLITS
On December 21, 2006, the Company announced a 5% stock dividend to be paid on January 16, 2007 to shareholders of record as of December 31, 2006. The stock dividend was recorded in 2006, and all share and per share amounts have been retroactively adjusted for all prior years to reflect this stock dividend.
NOTE 16 - DIVIDENDS
Without prior approval, the Banks are restricted by state and federal regulations as to the maximum amount of dividends they can pay to the Company in any calendar year. The Banks may dividend their retained net profits (as defined) for that year and the two preceding years. From time to time, the Company may seek the approval of the appropriate regulatory authorities to allow the Banks to pay additional dividends to the Company in excess of the aforementioned amount. At December 31, 2007, total shareholders' equity of the Banks was $311,569 of which $311,569 was restricted or limited from dividend distribution to the Company.
NOTE 17 - DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT PLAN
The Company maintains an Automatic Dividend Reinvestment Plan. The plan enables shareholders to elect to have their cash dividends on all or a portion of shares held automatically reinvested in additional shares of the Company's common stock. The stock is purchased by the Company's transfer agent on the open market and credited to participant accounts at fair market value. Dividends are reinvested on a quarterly basis.
NOTE 18 - REGULATORY CAPITAL
Banks and bank holding companies are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies and are assigned to a capital category. The assigned capital category is largely determined by three ratios that are calculated according to the regulations. The ratios are intended to measure capital relative to assets and credit risk associated with those assets and off-balance sheet exposures. The capital category assigned to an entity can also be affected by qualitative judgments made by regulatory agencies about the risk inherent in the entity's activities that are not part of the calculated ratios. Failure to meet capital requirements can initiate regulatory action. Management believes as of December 31, 2007, the Company and Banks meet all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.
There are five capital categories defined in the regulations, ranging from well capitalized to critically undercapitalized. Classification in any of the undercapitalized categories can result in actions by regulators that could have a material effect on operations. At December 31, 2007 and 2006, the most recent regulatory notifications categorized the Banks as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective actions. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the Banks' category.
Actual and required capital amounts and ratios are presented below.
NOTE 19 - EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
The Company has a defined-contribution retirement plan in which substantially all employees may participate. The Company matches a portion of employees' contributions and makes additional contributions based on employee compensation and the overall profitability of the Company. Expense was $1,586 in 2007, $1,293 in 2006, and $1,309 in 2005.
The Company acquired a defined benefit retirement plan upon purchase of an affiliate in 2006. Per the merger agreement, the plan was frozen prior to the merger and an application was filed with the IRS to settle this plan. The Company settled this plan in the first half of 2007.
NOTE 20 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The Company has entered into transactions with certain directors, executive officers, significant stockholders and their affiliates or associates (related parties).
The aggregate amount of loans, as defined, to such related parties were as follows:
Deposits from related parties held by the Company at December 31, 2007 and 2006 totaled $5,839 and $8,288.
NOTE 21 - STOCK OPTION PLANS
On January 16, 2007, the Company's Board of Directors adopted and approved the MainSource Financial Group, Inc. 2007 Stock Incentive Plan (the "2007 Stock Incentive Plan") effective upon the approval of the plan by the Company's shareholders, which occurred on April 26, 2007 at the Company's annual meeting of shareholders. The 2007 Stock Incentive Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options, nonstatutory stock options, stock bonuses and restricted stock awards. Incentive stock options may be granted only to employees. An aggregate of 650,000 shares of common stock are reserved for issuance under the 2007 Stock Incentive Plan. Shares issuable under the 2007 Stock Incentive Plan will be authorized and unissued shares of common stock or treasury shares. The 2007 Stock Incentive Plan is in addition to, and not in replacement of, the 2003 Plan. However, no further awards of options will be made under the 2003 Plan. Unexercised options, which were previously issued under the 2003 Plan, will not be terminated, but will otherwise continue in accordance with the 2003 Plan and the agreements pursuant to which the options were issued.
The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using a closed form option valuation (Black-Scholes) model that uses the assumptions noted in the table below. Expected volatilities are based on historical volatilities of the Company's common stock. The Company uses historical data to estimate option exercise and post-vesting termination behavior. Employee and management options are tracked separately. The expected term of options granted is based on historical data and represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding, which takes into account that the options are not transferable. The risk-free interest rate for the expected term of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grant.
The fair value of options granted was determined using the following weighted average assumptions as of grant date.
A summary of the activity in the stock option plan for 2007 follows:
Information related to the stock option plan during each year follows:
As of December 31, 2007, there was $271 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested stock options granted under the Plan. The cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.6 years.
NOTE 22 - EARNINGS PER SHARE
Earnings per share were computed as follows:
Stock options for 226,350, 182,995, and 129,964 shares of common stock were not considered in computing diluted earnings per common share for 2007, 2006 and 2005 because they were antidilutive.
NOTE 23 - FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The methods and assumptions used to estimate fair value are described as follows.
Carrying amount is the estimated fair value of cash and cash equivalents, interest-bearing time deposits, restricted stock, accrued interest receivable and payable, demand and all other transactional deposits, short-term borrowings, variable rate notes
payable, and variable rate loans or deposits that reprice frequently and fully. Security fair values are based on market prices or dealer quotes, and if no such information is available, on the rate and term of the security and information about the issuer. For fixed rate loans or deposits and for variable rate loans or deposits with infrequent repricing or repricing limits, fair value is based on discounted cash flows using current market rates applied to the estimated life and credit risk. Fair values for impaired loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analysis or underlying collateral values. Fair value of loans held for sale is based on market quotes. Fair value of FHLB advances and subordinated debentures is based on current rates for similar financing. The fair value of off-balance-sheet items is based on the current fees or cost that would be charged to enter into or terminate such arrangements, and are not considered significant.

Based on their evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are, to the best of their knowledge, effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms as of such date.

Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
MainSource Financial Group, Inc. (the "Corporation") is responsible for the preparation, integrity, and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements included in this annual report. The consolidated financial statements and notes included in this annual report have been prepared in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles and necessarily include some amounts that are based on management's best estimates and judgments.
We, as management of MainSource Financial Group Inc., are responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting that is designed to produce reliable financial statements in conformity with Untied States generally accepted accounting principles. The system of internal control over financial reporting as it relates to the financial statements is evaluated for effectiveness by management and tested for reliability through a program of internal audits and other management testing. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Management assessed the Corporation's system of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007, in relation to criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting as described in "Internal Control - Integrated Framework" issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this assessment, management concludes that as of December 31, 2007, its system of internal controls over financial reporting is effective and meets the criteria of the "Internal Control - Integrated Framework". Crowe Chizek and Company LLC, independent registered public accounting firm, has issued an attestation report dated March 12, 2008 on the Corporation's internal control over financial reporting. This report is incorporated by reference in Item 8 above, under the heading "Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm".
