Third Century Bancorp Releases Earnings for Quarter Ended March 31, 2019

FRANKLIN, Ind.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–OTCPINK “TDCB”

Third Century Bancorp (“Company”), the holding company for Mutual
Savings Bank (“Bank”) announced it had net income of $203,000 for the
quarter ended March 31, 2019, or $0.17 per basic and diluted share,
compared to net income of $216,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2018,
or $0.18 per basic and diluted share. The decrease in net income was
primarily driven by an increase of $119,000 in Noninterest expense and a
decrease of $48,000 in Noninterest Income. These were partially offset
by a $148,000 increase in Net Interest Income. The change in Net
Interest Income was comprised of increases of $244,000 in Interest
Income and $98,000 in Interest Expense. The Company also recorded a
$6,000 decrease in income tax expense.

Net interest income was $1,417,000 for the first quarter of 2019
compared to $1,271,000 for the first quarter of 2018. The increase in
net interest income was primarily due to an increase of $244,000, or
16.71%, in interest income, primarily driven by an increase in interest
income on loans of $212,000. This increase was offset by an increase in
interest expense, which was $287,000 for the first quarter of 2019
compared to $189,000 for the first quarter of 2018. The increase in
interest expense was driven by an increase in deposit interest expense
of $101,000 and a slight decrease in wholesale funding interest expense
of $5,000, or 7.00%.

The increase in net interest income for the quarter ended March 31, 2019
was aided by a $2,000 decrease in the provision for loan losses compared
to 2018. The decrease in provision for loan losses was primarily driven
by decreased net loan charge-offs. Credit quality factors, including
growth in net loan balances, also factor into the provision for loan
losses. The Company saw net loan recoveries of $2,000 during the quarter
ended March 31, 2019 as compared to net loan charge-offs of $15,000 for
the quarter ended March 31, 2018.

Noninterest income decreased by $48,000 to $216,000 for the three months
ended March 31, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018. This
decrease in noninterest income was driven by decreases in loans sales of
$27,000, as well as decreases in income from servicing sold loans.

Noninterest expense increased by $119,000 to $1,314,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018. The
increase in expenses were largely driven by increases of $79,000 and
$15,000 in legal and professional expenses, respectively.

Total assets increased $4.6 million to $163.7 million at March 31, 2019
from $159.1 million at December 31, 2018, an increase of 2.89%. The
increase in assets was due to an increase in net loans receivable, an
increase of $1.6 million.

Commenting on the financial results, Third Century Bancorp President and
CEO David A. Coffey stated, “Our results from the first quarter were
steady and in line with our expectations. We continued our efforts to
achieve quality growth in deposits and loans. Additionally, we continue
to prepare for the opening of our new Greenwood, Indiana location and
the opportunities that will come with this expansion.”

The increase in total assets was funded by an increase in deposits of
$4.6 million to $129.3 million at March 31, 2019 from $124.7 million at
December 31, 2018. The increase in total deposits was driven by an
increase of $2.7 million, or 9.31%, in money market deposits to $32.4
million, as well as an increase in term deposits of $1.6 million, or
5.16% at March 31, 2019. The increase in total deposits was also
attributable to an increase of $912,000, or 1.85% in transaction
deposits. These increases were offset by a decrease in savings deposits
of $442,000, or 3.05% March 31, 2019.

Stockholders’ equity increased $241,000 to $16.7 million at March 31,
2019 from $16.5 million at December 31, 2018. Stockholders’ equity
increased due to the Company’s net income, partially offset by the
increase in net unrealized loss of $121,000 of our available-for-sale
securities due to the increase in market interest rates and cash
dividends paid of $83,000. Average equity as a percentage of average
assets decreased to 10.25% for the three months ended March 31, 2019
compared to 10.47% for the period ended December 31, 2018.

Founded in 1890, Mutual Savings Bank is a full-service financial
institution based in Johnson County, Indiana. In addition to its main
office at 80 East Jefferson Street, Franklin, Indiana, the bank operates
branches in Franklin at 1124 North Main Street and the Otterbein
