NOTE 1

GENERAL

Financial Statement Preparation

The significant accounting policies followed by First Merchants Corporation (the “Corporation”) and its wholly owned subsidiaries for interim financial reporting are consistent with the accounting policies followed for annual financial reporting. All adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature and are in the opinion of management necessary for a fair statement of the results for the periods reported, have been included in the accompanying consolidated condensed financial statements.

The consolidated condensed balance sheet of the Corporation as of December 31, 2014, has been derived from the audited consolidated balance sheet of the Corporation as of that date. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the Corporation’s annual financial statements, prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, have been condensed or omitted. These consolidated condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year. Reclassifications have been made to prior financial statements to conform to the current financial statement presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on net income.

NOTE 2

ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES

Acquisitions

C Financial Corporation

On April 17, 2015, the Corporation acquired 100 percent of C Financial Corporation, ("C Financial"). C Financial merged with and into the Corporation (the “C Financial Merger”) whereupon the separate corporate existence of C Financial ceased and the Corporation survived. Immediately following the C Financial Merger, Cooper State Bank, an Ohio state bank and wholly-owned subsidiary of C Financial, merged with and into First Merchants Bank, National Association, a national bank and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation (the "Bank"), with the Bank continuing as the surviving bank. C Financial was headquartered in Columbus, Ohio and had 6 full service banking centers serving the Columbus, Ohio market. As part of the $14.5 million C Financial Merger, shareholders of C Financial received $6.738 in cash for each share of C Financial common stock held. The Corporation expects the transaction to be accretive to income within the first full year of operation, and expand the existing footprint in Columbus, Ohio. Goodwill resulted from this transaction due to the synergies and economies of scale that are expected.

Under the acquisition method of accounting, the total purchase price is allocated to net tangible and intangible assets based on their current estimated fair values on the date of the acquisition. Based on preliminary valuations of the fair value of tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, which are based on assumptions that are subject to change, the purchase price for the C Financial acquisition is detailed in the following table. Prior to the end of the one year measurement period for finalizing the purchase price allocation, if information becomes available which would indicate adjustments are required to the purchase price allocation, such adjustments will be included in the purchase price allocation retrospectively.



	Fair Value
Cash and cash equivalents	$	2,496
Federal Funds sold	7,018
Interest-bearing time deposits	922
Loans	110,625

(Unaudited)

Of the total purchase price, $981,000 has been allocated to a core deposit intangible that will be amortized over its estimated life of 10 years. The remaining purchase price has been allocated to goodwill, which is deductible for tax purposes because the transaction was considered a taxable exchange.

Community Bancshares, Inc.

On November 7, 2014, the Corporation acquired 100 percent of Community Bancshares, Inc. ("Community"), pursuant to which, Community merged with and into the Corporation (the "Community Merger") whereupon the separate corporate existence of Community ceased and the Corporation survived. Immediately following the Community Merger, Community Bank, and Indiana state bank and wholly-owned subsidiary of Community, merged with and into the Bank, with the Bank continuing as the surviving bank. Community was headquartered in Noblesville, Indiana and had 10 full-service banking centers serving central Indiana. Pursuant to the merger agreement, each outstanding share of common stock of Community was converted into the right to receive either (a) 4.0926 shares of the Corporation's common stock, plus cash in lieu of fractional shares; or (b) $85.94 in cash, based upon shareholder elections. The Corporation paid $14.2 million in cash and issued approximately 1.6 million shares of common stock, valued at approximately $35.0 million, for a total purchase price of approximately $49.2 million. The Corporation expects the transaction to be accretive to income within the first full year of operation, and expand the existing footprint in central Indiana. Goodwill resulted from this transaction due to the synergies and economies of scale that are expected.

Under the acquisition method of accounting, the total purchase price is allocated to net tangible and intangible assets based on their current estimated fair values on the date of the acquisition. Based on preliminary valuations of the fair value of tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, which are based on assumptions that are subject to change, the purchase price for the Community acquisition is detailed in the following table. Prior to the end of the one year measurement period for finalizing the purchase price allocation, if information becomes available which would indicate adjustments are required to the purchase price allocation, such adjustments will be included in the purchase price allocation retrospectively.



	Fair Value
Cash and cash equivalents	$	4,124
Interest-bearing time deposits	16,526
Investment Securities, available for sale	76,807
Loans	145,064
Premises and equipment	3,610

Other liabilities	(3,014		)
Net tangible assets acquired	30,755
Core deposit intangible	4,658
Goodwill	13,776
Purchase price	$	49,189

Of the total purchase price, $4,658,000 has been allocated to a core deposit intangible that will be amortized over its estimated life of 10 years. The remaining purchase price has been allocated to goodwill, which is not deductible for tax purposes due to the merger being accounted for as a tax-free exchange. The tax-free exchange resulted in a carryover of tax attributes and tax basis to the Corporation's subsequent income tax filings and was adjusted for any fair value adjustments required in accounting for the acquisition.

Subsidiary Divestiture

On June 12, 2015, the Corporation sold all of its stock in First Merchants Insurance Services, Inc., an Indiana corporation ("FMIG"), to USI Insurance LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("USI"). The sale price was $18 million, of which $16 million was paid at closing with the remaining $2 million paid through a two-year promissory note. The sale price is subject to a customary working capital adjustment once closing working capital is confirmed. The sale of FMIG generated a gain on sale of $8.3 million.

The Corporation’s management has evaluated all securities with unrealized losses for OTTI as of June 30, 2015. The evaluations are based on the nature of the securities, the extent and duration of the loss and the intent and ability of the Corporation to hold these securities either to maturity or through the expected recovery period.

In determining the fair value of the investment securities portfolio, the Corporation utilizes a third party for portfolio accounting services, including market value input, for those securities classified as Level 1 and Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The Corporation has obtained an understanding of what inputs are being used by the vendor in pricing the portfolio and how the vendor was classifying these securities based upon these inputs. From these discussions, the Corporation’s management is comfortable that the classifications are proper. The Corporation has gained trust in the data for two reasons: (a) independent spot testing of the data is conducted by the Corporation through obtaining market quotes from various brokers on a periodic basis and (b) actual gains or loss resulting from the sale of certain securities has proven the data to be accurate over time. Fair value of securities classified as Level 3 in the valuation hierarchy was determined using a discounted cash flow model that incorporated market estimates of interest rates and volatility in markets that have not been active.

State and Municipal

The unrealized losses on the Corporation’s investments in securities of state and political subdivisions were caused by changes in interest rates. The contractual terms of those investments do not permit the issuer to settle the securities at a price less than the amortized cost basis of the investments. The Corporation does not intend to sell the investment and it is not more likely than not that the Corporation will be required to sell the investment before recovery of its new, lower amortized cost basis, which may be maturity. The Corporation does not consider the investment securities to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2015.

U.S. Government-Sponsored Mortgage-Backed Securities

The unrealized losses on the Corporation’s investment in U.S. Government-sponsored mortgage-backed securities were a result of changes in interest rates. The Corporation expects to recover the amortized cost basis over the term of the securities as the decline in market value is attributable to changes in interest rates and not credit quality. The Corporation does not intend to sell the investment and it is not more likely than not that the Corporation will be required to sell the investment before recovery of its new, lower amortized cost basis, which may be maturity. The Corporation does not consider the investment securities to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2015.

Credit Losses Recognized on Investments

Certain corporate obligations experienced fair value deterioration due to credit losses and other market factors. The following table provides information about those securities for which only a credit loss was recognized in income and other losses were recorded in other comprehensive income.



	Accumulated Credit Losses in 2015			Accumulated Credit Losses in 2014
Credit losses on debt securities held:
Balance, January 1	$	500		$	11,355
Reductions for previous other-than-temporary losses realized on securities sold during the year	(500		)	(10,855		)
Balance, June 30	$	—		$	500

In the first quarter of 2015, the Corporation sold its remaining trust preferred security which had no remaining book value as a result of OTTI of approximately $500,000 taken in 2009. The sale of this security resulted in a gain of $45,000, which is included in the Consolidated Condensed Statement of Income for the six months ended June 30, 2015.

LOANS AND ALLOWANCE

The Corporation’s primary lending focus is small business and middle market commercial, commercial real estate, residential real estate and consumer lending, which results in portfolio diversification. The following tables show the composition of the loan portfolio, the allowance for loan losses and certain credit quality elements, all excluding loans held for sale. Loans held for sale as of June 30, 2015, and December 31, 2014, were $8,295,000 and $7,235,000, respectively.

The following table shows the composition of the Corporation’s loan portfolio by loan class for the periods indicated:



	June 30, 2015			December 31, 2014
Commercial and industrial loans	$	984,223		$	896,688
Agricultural production financing and other loans to farmers	93,695			104,927
Real estate loans:
Construction	256,082			207,221
Commercial and farmland	1,705,647			1,672,661
Residential	689,621			647,315
Home Equity	302,403			286,529
Individuals' loans for household and other personal expenditures	62,785			73,400
Lease financing receivables, net of unearned income	742			1,106
Other commercial loans	143,007			35,018
Loans	$	4,238,205		$	3,924,865
Allowance for loan losses	(62,550		)	(63,964		)
Net Loans	$	4,175,655		$	3,860,901

At June 30, 2015, Other commercial loans totaled $143,007,000, an increase of 107,989,000 from December 31, 2014. This increase was primarily a result of organic growth in the obligations of the state and political subdivisions sector of the portfolio.

Allowance, Credit Quality and Loan Portfolio

The Corporation maintains an allowance for loan losses to cover probable credit losses identified during its loan review process. Management believes the allowance for loan losses is appropriate to cover probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio at June 30, 2015. The process for determining the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is critical to the Corporation’s financial results. It requires management to make difficult, subjective and complex judgments, to estimate the effect of uncertain matters. The allowance for loan losses considers current factors, including economic conditions and ongoing internal and external examinations, and will increase or decrease as deemed necessary to ensure the allowance remains adequate. In addition, the allowance as a percentage of charge offs and nonperforming loans will change at different points in time based on credit performance, loan mix and collateral values.

The allowance is increased by the provision for loan losses and decreased by charge offs less recoveries. The Bank charges off a loan when a determination is made that all or a portion of the loan is uncollectible. The allowance for loan losses is maintained through the provision for loan losses, which is a charge against earnings. The amount provided for loan losses in a given period may be greater than or less than net loan losses experienced during the period, and is based on management’s judgment as to the appropriate level of the allowance for loan losses. The determination of the provision amount in a given period is based on management’s ongoing review and evaluation of the loan portfolio, including an internally administered loan "watch" list and independent loan reviews. The evaluation takes into consideration identified credit problems, the possibility of losses inherent in the loan portfolio that are not specifically identified and management’s judgment as to the impact of the current environment and economic conditions on the portfolio.

In conformance with ASC 805 and ASC 820, loans purchased after December 31, 2008, are recorded at the acquisition date fair value. Such loans are only included in the allowance when deemed impaired in accordance with ASC 310-30.

The allowance consists of specific impairment reserves as required by ASC 310-10-35, a component for historical losses in accordance with ASC 450 and the consideration of current environmental factors in accordance with ASC 450. A loan is deemed impaired when, based on current information or events, it is probable that all amounts due of principal and interest according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement will not be collected.

The historical loss allocation for loans not deemed impaired, according to ASC 310, is the product of the volume of loans within the non-impaired criticized and non-criticized risk grade classifications, each segmented by call code, and the historical loss factor for each respective classification and call code segment. The historical loss factors are based upon actual loss experience within each risk and call code classification. The historical look back period for non-criticized loans looks to the most recent rolling-four-quarter average and aligns with the look back period for non-impaired criticized loans. Each of the rolling four quarter periods used to obtain the average, include all charge offs for the previous twelve-month period, therefore the historical look back period includes seven quarters. The resulting allocation is reflective of current conditions. Criticized loans are grouped based on the risk grade assigned to the loan. Loans with a special mention grade are assigned a loss factor, and loans with a classified grade but not impaired are assigned a separate loss factor. The loss factor computation for this allocation includes a segmented historical loss migration analysis of criticized risk grades to charge off.

In addition to the specific reserves and historical loss components of the allowance, consideration is given to various environmental factors to help ensure that losses inherent in the portfolio are reflected in the allowance for loan losses. The environmental component adjusts the historical loss allocations for commercial and consumer loans to reflect relevant current conditions that, in management's opinion, have an impact on loss recognition. Environmental factors that management reviews in the analysis include: national and local economic trends and conditions; trends in growth in the loan portfolio and growth in higher risk areas; levels of, and trends in, delinquencies and non-accruals; experience and depth of lending management and staff; adequacy of, and adherence to, lending policies and procedures including those for underwriting; industry concentrations of credit; and adequacy of risk identification systems and controls through the internal loan review and internal audit processes.

At June 30, 2015, the allowance for loan losses was $62,550,000, a decrease of $1,414,000 from the December 31, 2014 balance of $63,964,000. Specific reserves on impaired loans increased $319,000 to $3,088,000, from $2,769,000 at December 31, 2014. Net charge offs for the six months ended June 30, 2015, were $1,831,000. Comparatively, the same period in 2014 had net recoveries of $497,000. The provision for loan losses for the six months ended June 30, 2015 was $417,000. There was no provision for loan losses recognized for the six months ended June 30, 2014. The determination of the provision for loan losses in any period is based on management’s continuing review and evaluation of the loan portfolio, and its judgment as to the impact of current economic conditions on the portfolio.

The following tables summarize changes in the allowance for loan losses by loan segment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, and June 30, 2014:

The risk characteristics of the Corporation’s material portfolio segments are as follows:

Commercial

Commercial loans are primarily based on the identified cash flows of the borrower and secondarily on the underlying collateral provided by the borrower. The cash flows of borrowers, however, may not be as expected and the collateral securing these loans may fluctuate in value. Most commercial loans are secured by the assets being financed or other business assets such as accounts receivable or inventory and may incorporate a personal guarantee; however, some short-term loans may be made on an unsecured basis. In the case of loans secured by accounts receivable, the availability of funds for the repayment of these loans may be substantially dependent on the ability of the borrower to collect amounts due from its customers.

Commercial real estate

These loans are viewed primarily as cash flow loans and secondarily as loans secured by real estate. Commercial real estate lending typically involves higher loan principal amounts and the repayment of these loans is generally dependent on the successful operation of the property securing the loan or the business conducted on the property securing the loan. Commercial real estate loans may be more adversely affected by conditions in the real estate markets or in the general economy. Management monitors and evaluates commercial real estate loans based on collateral and risk grade criteria. In addition, management tracks the level of owner-occupied commercial real estate loans versus non-owner occupied loans.

Residential and Consumer

With respect to residential loans that are secured by 1-4 family residences and are generally owner occupied, the Corporation generally establishes a maximum loan-to-value ratio and requires private mortgage insurance if that ratio is exceeded. Home equity loans are typically secured by a subordinate interest in 1-4 family residences, and consumer loans are secured by consumer assets such as automobiles or recreational vehicles. Some consumer loans are unsecured such as small installment loans and certain lines of credit. Repayment of these loans is primarily dependent on the personal income and credit rating of the borrowers, which can be impacted by economic conditions in their market areas such as unemployment levels. Repayment can also be impacted by changes in property values on residential properties. Risk is mitigated by the fact that the loans are of smaller individual amounts and spread over a large number of borrowers.

Loans are reclassified to a non-accruing status when, in management’s judgment, the collateral value and financial condition of the borrower do not justify accruing interest. Interest previously recorded, but not deemed collectible, is reversed and charged against current income. Payments subsequently received on non-accrual loans are applied to principal. A loan is returned to accrual status when principal and interest are no longer past due and collectability is probable, typically after a minimum of six consecutive months of performance. Payments received on impaired accruing or delinquent loans are applied to interest income as accrued.

The following table summarizes the Corporation’s non-accrual loans by loan class as of the periods indicated:



	June 30, 2015		December 31, 2014
Commercial and industrial loans	$	5,510	$	7,048
Agriculture production financing and other loans to farmers	1,298		5,800
Real estate Loans:
Construction	1,493		1,439
Commercial and farmland	16,964		19,350
Residential	10,515		12,933
Home Equity	1,874		1,988
Individuals' loans for household and other personal expenditures	59		231
Total	$	37,713	$	48,789

Commercial impaired loans include non-accrual loans, loans accounted for under ASC 310-30, as well as substandard, doubtful and loss grade loans that were still accruing but deemed impaired according to guidance set forth in ASC 310. Also included in impaired loans are accruing loans that are contractually past due 90 days or more and troubled debt restructurings.

Allowable methods for determining the amount of impairment include estimating fair value using the fair value of the collateral for collateral dependent loans. If the impaired loan is identified as collateral dependent, then the fair value method of measuring the amount of impairment is utilized. This method requires obtaining a current independent appraisal of the collateral and applying a discount factor to the value. The fair value of real estate is generally based on appraisals by qualified licensed appraisers. The appraisers typically determine the value of the real estate by utilizing an income or market valuation approach. If an appraisal is not available, the fair value may be determined by using a cash flow analysis. Fair value on other collateral such as business assets is typically ascertained by assessing, either singularly or some combination of, asset appraisals, accounts receivable aging reports, inventory listings and or customer financial statements. Both appraised values and values based on borrower’s financial information are discounted as considered appropriate based on age and quality of the information and current market conditions.

The Corporation utilizes a risk grading of pass, special mention, substandard, doubtful and loss to assess the overall credit quality of large commercial loans. All large commercial credit grades are reviewed at a minimum of once a year for pass grade loans. Loans with grades below pass are reviewed more frequently depending on the grade. A description of the general characteristics of these grades is as follows:


•	Pass - Loans that are considered to be of acceptable credit quality.

•

Special Mention - Loans which possess some credit deficiency or potential weakness, which deserves close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the asset or in the Corporation's credit position at some future date. Special mention assets are not adversely classified and do not expose the Corporation to sufficient risk to warrant adverse classification. The key distinctions of this category's classification are that it is indicative of an unwarranted level of risk; and weaknesses are considered “potential”, not “defined”, impairments to the primary source of repayment. Examples include businesses that may be suffering from inadequate management, loss of key personnel or significant customer or litigation.

•

Substandard - A substandard loan is inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Assets so classified have a well-defined weakness that jeopardizes the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Corporation will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Other characteristics may include:



	o	the likelihood that a loan will be paid from the primary source of repayment is uncertain or financial deterioration is underway and very close attention is warranted to ensure that the loan is collected without loss,



	o	the primary source of repayment is gone, and the Corporation is forced to rely on a secondary source of repayment, such as collateral liquidation or guarantees,



	o	loans have a distinct possibility that the Corporation will sustain some loss if deficiencies are not corrected,



	o	unusual courses of action are needed to maintain a high probability of repayment,



	o	the borrower is not generating enough cash flow to repay loan principal; however, it continues to make interest payments,



	o	the Corporation is forced into a subordinated or unsecured position due to flaws in documentation,



	o	loans have been restructured so that payment schedules, terms and collateral represent concessions to the borrower when compared to the normal loan terms,



	o	the Corporation is seriously contemplating foreclosure or legal action due to the apparent deterioration of the loan, and



	o	there is significant deterioration in market conditions to which the borrower is highly vulnerable.

•

Doubtful - Loans that have all of the weaknesses of those classified as Substandard. However, based on currently existing facts, conditions and values, these weaknesses make full collection of principal highly questionable and improbable. Other credit characteristics may include the primary source of repayment is gone or there is considerable doubt as to the quality of the secondary sources of repayment. The possibility of loss is high, but because of certain important pending factors that may strengthen the loan, loss classification is deferred until the exact status of repayment is known.


•	Loss – Loans that are considered uncollectible and of such little value that continuing to carry them as an asset is not warranted. Loans will be classified as Loss when it is neither practical not desirable to defer writing off or reserving all or a portion of a basically worthless asset, even though partial recovery may be possible at some time in the future.

The following tables summarize the credit quality of the Corporation’s loan portfolio, by loan class for the periods indicated. Consumer non-performing loans include accruing consumer loans 90 plus days delinquent and consumer non-accrual loans.

See the information regarding the analysis of loan loss experience in the "LOAN QUALITY/PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES" section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included as ITEM 2 of this Form 10-Q.

On occasion, borrowers experience declines in income and cash flow. As a result, these borrowers seek to reduce contractual cash outlays including debt payments. Concurrently, in an effort to preserve and protect its earning assets, specifically troubled loans, the Corporation works to maintain its relationship with certain customers who are experiencing financial difficulty by contractually modifying the borrower's debt agreement with the Corporation. In certain loan restructuring situations, the Corporation may grant a concession to a debtor experiencing financial difficulty, resulting in a trouble debt restructuring. A concession is deemed to be granted when, as a result of the restructuring, the Corporation does not expect to collect all amounts due, including interest accrued at the original contract rate. If the payment of principal at original maturity is primarily dependent on the value of collateral, the current value of the collateral is considered in determining whether the principal will be paid.

Loans secured by commercial and farm real estate made up 44 percent of the post-modification balance of troubled debt restructured loans made in the six months ended June 30, 2015.

There were no troubled debt restructures that occurred during the twelve months ended June 30, 2015 and June 30, 2014, that subsequently defaulted during the period indicated and remained in default at period end. For purposes of this discussion, a loan is considered in default if it is 30 or more days past due.

For potential consumer loan restructures, impairment evaluation occurs prior to modification. Any subsequent impairment is typically addressed through the charge off process, or may be addressed through a specific reserve. Consumer troubled debt restructurings are generally included in the general historical allowance for loan loss at the post modification balance. Consumer non-accrual and delinquent troubled debt restructurings are also considered in the calculation of the non-accrual and delinquency trend environmental allowance allocation. Commercial troubled debt restructured loans risk graded special mention, substandard, doubtful and loss are individually evaluated for impairment under ASC 310. Any resulting specific reserves are included in the allowance for loan losses. Commercial 30 - 89 day delinquent troubled debt restructurings are included in the calculation of the delinquency trend environmental allowance allocation. All commercial non-impaired loans, including non-accrual and 90+ day delinquents, are included in the ASC 450 loss migration analysis.

NOTE 5

ACCOUNTING FOR CERTAIN LOANS ACQUIRED IN A PURCHASE

The acquired loans detailed in the tables below are included in Note 4. LOANS AND ALLOWANCE, in the Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements of this Form 10-Q. As described in Note 4, loans purchased after December 31, 2008 are recorded at the acquisition date fair value, which could result in a fair value discount or premium. Purchased loans with evidence of credit deterioration since origination and for which it is probable at the date of acquisition that the acquirer will not collect all contractually required principal and interest payments are accounted for under ASC 310-30, Loans Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality. The difference between contractually required payments and the cash flows expected to be collected at acquisition is referred to as the nonaccretable portion of the fair value discount or premium. The accretable portion of the fair value discount or premium is the difference between the expected cash flows and the net present value of expected cash flows, with such difference accreted into earnings over the term of the loans. All other loans not accounted for under ASC 310-30 are accounted for under ASC 310-20.

NOTE 8

DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives

The Corporation is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Corporation principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Corporation manages economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk, primarily by managing the amount, sources, and duration of its assets and liabilities and through the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, the Corporation enters into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. The Corporation’s derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing, and duration of the Corporation’s known or expected cash payments principally related to certain variable-rate liabilities. The Corporation also has derivatives that are a result of a service the Corporation provides to certain qualifying customers, and, therefore, are not used to manage interest rate risk in the Corporation’s assets or liabilities. The Corporation manages a matched book with respect to its derivative instruments offered as a part of this service to its customers in order to minimize its net risk exposure resulting from such transactions.

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

The Corporation’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish these objectives, the Corporation primarily uses interest rate swaps and interest rate caps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the payment of fixed amounts to a counterparty in exchange for the Corporation receiving variable payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. Interest rate caps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty if interest rates rise above the strike rate on the contract in exchange for an up-front premium. As of June 30, 2015 and 2014, the Corporation had five interest rate swaps with a notional amount of $56.0 million and one interest rate cap with a notional amount of $13.0 million that were designated as cash flow hedges.

The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. During 2015, $26.0 million of the interest rate swaps and the $13.0 million interest rate cap were used to hedge the variable cash outflows (LIBOR-based) associated with existing trust preferred securities when the outflows converted from a fixed rate to variable rate in September of 2012. In addition, the remaining $30.0 million of interest rate swaps were used to hedge the variable cash outflows (LIBOR-based) associated with three Federal Home Loan Bank advances. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivatives is recognized directly in earnings. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, and 2014, the Corporation did not recognize any ineffectiveness.

Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the Corporation’s variable-rate liabilities. During the next twelve months, the Corporation expects to reclassify $1,325,000 from accumulated other comprehensive income to interest expense.

Non-designated Hedges

The Corporation does not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes. Derivatives not designated as hedges are not speculative and result from a service the Corporation provides to certain customers. The Corporation executes interest rate swaps with commercial banking customers to facilitate their respective risk management strategies. Those interest rate swaps are simultaneously hedged by offsetting interest rate swaps that the Corporation executes with a third party, such that the Corporation minimizes its net risk exposure resulting from such transactions. As the interest rate swaps associated with this program do not meet the strict hedge accounting requirements, changes in the fair value of both the customer swaps and the offsetting swaps are recognized directly in earnings. As of June 30, 2015, the notional amount of customer-facing swaps was approximately $152,839,000. This amount is offset with third party counterparties, as described above.

The Corporation’s exposure to credit risk occurs because of nonperformance by its counterparties. The counterparties approved by the Corporation are usually financial institutions, which are well capitalized and have credit ratings through Moody’s and/or Standard & Poor’s, at or above investment grade. The Corporation’s control of such risk is through quarterly financial reviews, comparing mark-to-mark values with policy limitations, credit ratings and collateral pledging.

Credit-risk-related Contingent Features

The Corporation has agreements with certain of its derivative counterparties that contain a provision where if the Corporation fails to maintain its status as a well or adequate capitalized institution, then the Corporation could be required to terminate or fully collateralize all outstanding derivative contracts.

The Corporation also has agreements with certain of its derivative counterparties that contain a provision where if the Corporation defaults on any of its indebtedness, including default where repayment of the indebtedness has not been accelerated by the lender, the Corporation could also be declared in default on its derivative obligations. As of June 30, 2015, the termination value of derivatives in a net liability position related to these agreements was $6,234,000. As of June 30, 2015, the Corporation had minimum collateral posting thresholds with certain of its derivative counterparties and had posted collateral of $10,031,000. If the Corporation had breached any of these provisions at June 30, 2015, it could have been required to settle its obligations under the agreements at their termination value.

NOTE 9

DISCLOSURES ABOUT FAIR VALUE OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES

The Corporation used fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments, to certain assets, and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures. The accounting guidance defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 applies only when other guidance requires or permits assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value; it does not expand the use of fair value in any new circumstances.

As defined in ASC 820, fair value is the price to sell an asset or transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. It represents an exit price at the measurement date. Market participants are buyers and sellers, who are independent, knowledgeable, and willing and able to transact in the principal (or most advantageous) market for the asset or liability being measured. Current market conditions, including imbalances between supply and demand, are considered in determining fair value. The Corporation values its assets and liabilities in the principal market where it sells the particular asset or transfers the liability with the greatest volume and level of activity. In the absence of a principal market, the valuation is based on the most advantageous market for the asset or liability (i.e., the market where the asset could be sold or the liability transferred at a price that maximizes the amount to be received for the asset or minimizes the amount to be paid to transfer the liability).

Valuation inputs refer to the assumptions market participants would use in pricing a given asset or liability. Inputs can be observable or unobservable. Observable inputs are those assumptions which market participants would use in pricing the particular asset or liability. These inputs are based on market data and are obtained from a source independent of the Corporation. Unobservable inputs are assumptions based on the Corporation’s own information or estimate of assumptions used by market participants in pricing the asset or liability. Unobservable inputs are based on the best and most current information available on the measurement date. All inputs, whether observable or unobservable, are ranked in accordance with a prescribed fair value hierarchy which gives the highest ranking to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest ranking to unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market activity (Level 3). Fair values for assets or liabilities classified as Level 2 are based on one or a combination of the following factors: (i) quoted prices for similar assets; (ii) observable inputs for the asset or liability, such as interest rates or yield curves; or (iii) inputs derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data. The level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Corporation considers an input to be significant if it drives 10 percent or more of the total fair value of a particular asset or liability.

Recurring Measurements

Following is a description of the valuation methodologies and inputs used for instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis and recognized in the accompanying Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy. There have been no significant changes in the valuation techniques as of June 30, 2015.

Available for Sale Investment Securities

Where quoted, market prices are available in an active market and securities are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. There are no securities classified within Level 1 of the hierarchy. If quoted market prices are not available, then fair values are estimated by using pricing models, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics or discounted cash flows. Level 2 securities include agencies, mortgage backs, state and municipal, and equity securities. In certain cases where Level 1 or Level 2 inputs are not available, securities are classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy. Level 3 fair value, including corporate obligations, state and municipal and equity securities, was determined using a discounted cash flow model that incorporated market estimates of interest rates and volatility in markets that have not been active.

Third party vendors compile prices from various sources and may apply such techniques as matrix pricing to determine the value of identical or similar investment securities classified within Level 2. Matrix pricing is a mathematical technique widely used in the banking industry to value investment securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for specific investment securities but rather relying on the investment securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted investment securities. Any investment security not valued based upon the methods above are considered Level 3.

Other real estate owned	$	5,155			$	5,155

Following is a description of valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis and recognized in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy.

Impaired Loans (collateral dependent)

Loans for which it is probable that the Corporation will not collect all principal and interest due according to contractual terms are measured for impairment. Allowable methods for determining the amount of impairment include estimating fair value of the collateral for collateral dependent loans. If the impaired loan is identified as collateral dependent, then the fair value method of measuring the amount of impairment is utilized. This method requires obtaining a current independent appraisal of the collateral and applying a discount factor to the value. A portion of the allowance for loan losses is allocated to impaired loans if the value of such loans is deemed to be less than the unpaid balance. If these allocations cause the allowance for loan losses to increase, such increase is reported as a component of the provision for loan losses. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectability of the loan is confirmed. During 2015, certain impaired loans were partially charged off or re-evaluated. Impaired loans that are collateral dependent are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy when impairment is determined using the fair value method.

Other Real Estate Owned

The fair value for impaired loans and other real estate owned is measured based on the value of the collateral securing those loans or real estate and is determined using several methods. The fair value of real estate is generally determined based on appraisals by qualified licensed appraisers. The appraisers typically determine the value of the real estate by utilizing an income or market valuation approach. If an appraisal is not available, the fair value may be determined by using a cash flow analysis. Fair value on other collateral such as business assets is typically ascertained by assessing, either singularly or some combination of, asset appraisals, accounts receivable aging reports, inventory listings and/or customer financial statements. Both appraised values and values based on borrower’s financial information are discounted as considered appropriate based on age and quality of the information and current market conditions.

Sensitivity of Significant Unobservable Inputs

The following is a discussion of the sensitivity of significant unobservable inputs, the interrelationships between those inputs and other unobservable inputs used in recurring fair value measurement and of how those inputs might magnify or mitigate the effect of changes in the unobservable inputs on the fair value measurement.

State and Municipal Securities, Corporate Obligations and Equity Securities

The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Corporation’s state and municipal securities, corporate obligations and equity securities are premiums for unrated securities and marketability discounts. Significant increases or decreases in either of those inputs in isolation would result in a significantly lower or higher fair value measurement. Generally, changes in either of those inputs will not affect the other input.

The following methods were used to estimate the fair value of all other financial instruments recognized in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets at amounts other than fair value.

Cash and cash equivalents: The fair value of cash and cash equivalents approximates carrying value.

Interest-bearing time deposits: The fair value of interest-bearing time deposits approximates carrying value.

Investment securities: Fair value is based on quoted market prices, if available. If a quoted market price is not available, fair value is estimated using quoted market prices for similar securities. The fair value of certain Level III securities is estimated using discounted cash flow analysis, using interest rates currently being offered on investments with similar maturities and investment quality.

Loans Held For Sale: The carrying amount approximates fair value due to the short duration between origination and date of sale.

Loans: The fair value for loans is estimated using discounted cash flow analysis, using interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality. See Impaired Loans above.

Federal Reserve and Federal Home Loan Bank stock: The fair value of Federal Reserve Bank and Federal Home Loan Bank stock is based on the price which it may be resold to the Federal Reserve and Federal Home Loan Bank.

Derivative instruments: The fair value of the interest rate swaps reflects the estimated amounts that would have been received to terminate these contracts at the reporting date based upon pricing or valuation models applied to current market information. Interest rate caps are valued using the market standard methodology of discounting the future expected cash receipts that would occur if variable interest rates rose above the strike rate of the caps. The projected cash receipts on the caps are based on an expectation of future interest rates derived from observed market interest rate curves and volatilities.

Interest Receivable and Interest Payable: The fair value of interest receivables/payable approximates the carrying amount.

Deposits: The fair values of noninterest-bearing and interest-bearing demand accounts and savings deposits are equal to the amount payable on demand at the balance sheet date. The carrying amounts for variable rate, fixed-term certificates of deposit approximate their fair values at the balance sheet date. Fair values for fixed-rate certificates of deposit and other time deposits are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on such time deposits.

Federal funds purchased: The fair value of Federal Funds purchased approximates the carrying amount.

Borrowings: The fair value of borrowings is estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation, based on current rates for similar debt.

NOTE 12

SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

Stock options and restricted stock awards ("RSAs") have been issued to directors, officers and other management employees under the Corporation's 1999 Long-term Equity Incentive Plan and the 2009 Long-term Equity Incentive Plan. The stock options, which have a ten year life, become 100 percent vested ranging from six months to two years and are fully exercisable when vested. Option exercise prices equal the Corporation's common stock closing price on NASDAQ on the date of grant. RSAs issued to employees and non-employee directors provide for the issuance of shares of the Corporation's common stock at no cost to the holder and generally vest after three years. The RSAs vest only if the employee is actively employed by the Corporation on the vesting date and, therefore, any unvested shares are forfeited. For non-employee directors, the RSAs vest only if the non-employee director remains as an active board member on the vesting date and, therefore, any unvested shares are forfeited. RSAs for employees and non-employee directors retired from the Corporation are either immediately vested at retirement or continue to vest after retirement, depending on the plan under which the shares were granted. Deferred stock units ("DSUs") can be credited to non-employee directors who have elected to defer payment of compensation under the Corporation's 2008 Equity Compensation Plan for Non-employee Directors. DSUs credited are equal to the restricted shares that the non-employee director would have received under the plan. As of June 30, 2015, there were no outstanding DSUs.

The Corporation’s 2009 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”) provides eligible employees of the Corporation and its subsidiaries an opportunity to purchase shares of common stock of the Corporation through quarterly offerings financed by payroll deductions. The price of the stock to be paid by the employees shall be equal to 85 percent of the average of the closing price of the Corporation’s common stock on each trading day during the offering period. However, in no event shall such purchase price be less than the lesser of an amount equal to 85 percent of the market price of the Corporation’s stock on the offering date or an amount equal to 85 percent of the market value on the date of purchase. Common stock purchases are made quarterly and are paid through advance payroll deductions up to a calendar year maximum of $25,000.

Compensation expense related to unvested share-based awards is recorded by recognizing the unamortized grant date fair value of these awards over the remaining service periods of those awards, with no change in historical reported fair values and earnings. Awards are valued at fair value in accordance with provisions of share-based compensation guidance and are recognized on a straight-line basis over the service periods of each award. To complete the exercise of vested stock options, RSA’s and ESPP options, the Corporation generally issues new shares from its authorized but unissued share pool. Share-based compensation for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 was $614,000 and $1,130,000, respectively, compared to $554,000 and $1,059,000, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014. Share-based compensation has been recognized as a component of salaries and benefits expense in the accompanying CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED STATEMENTS OF INCOME.

(Unaudited)

The estimated fair value of the stock options granted during 2014 and in prior years was calculated using a Black Scholes option pricing model. There have been no stock options granted in 2015.

The Black Scholes model incorporates assumptions to value share-based awards. The risk-free rate of interest, for periods equal to the expected life of the option, is based on a U.S. government instrument over a similar contractual term of the equity instrument. Expected price volatility is based on historical volatility of the Corporation’s common stock. In addition, the Corporation generally uses historical information to determine the dividend yield and weighted-average expected life of the options until exercise. Separate groups of employees that have similar historical exercise behavior with regard to option exercise timing and forfeiture rates are considered separately for valuation and attribution purposes.

Share-based compensation expense recognized in the CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED STATEMENTS OF INCOME is based on awards ultimately expected to vest and is reduced for estimated forfeitures. Share-based compensation guidance requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods, if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. Pre-vesting forfeitures were estimated to be approximately 4.9 percent for the six months ended June 30, 2015, based on historical experience.

The following table summarizes the components of the Corporation's share-based compensation awards recorded as expense:



	Three Months Ended June 30,						Six Months Ended June 30,

As of June 30, 2015, unrecognized compensation expense related to RSAs was $3,950,000 and is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.62 years. The Corporation did not have any unrecognized compensation expense related to stock options as of June 30, 2015.

Stock option activity under the Corporation's stock option plans as of June 30, 2015 and changes during the six months ended June 30, 2015, were as follows:



	Number of Shares		Weighted-Average Exercise Price		Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term (in Years)	Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Outstanding at January 1, 2015	737,931		$	20.99

The aggregate intrinsic value in the table above represents the total pre-tax intrinsic value (the difference between the Corporation's closing stock price on the last trading day of the first six months of 2015 and the exercise price, multiplied by the number of in-the-money options) that would have been received by the option holders had all option holders exercised their stock options on June 30, 2015. The amount of aggregate intrinsic value will change based on the fair market value of the Corporation's common stock. The aggregate intrinsic value of stock options exercised during the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 was $356,000 and $388,000, respectively. Cash receipts of stock options exercised during this same period were $619,000 and $450,000, respectively.

The following table summarizes information on unvested RSAs outstanding as of June 30, 2015:



	Number of Shares		Weighted-Average Grant Date Fair Value
Unvested RSAs at January 1, 2015	385,450		$	15.65
Granted	105,622		$	23.00

Unvested RSAs at June 30, 2015	347,134		$	19.49

The grant date fair value of ESPP options was estimated at the beginning of the April 1, 2015 quarterly offering period of approximately $28,000. The ESPP options vested during the three months ending June 30, 2015, leaving no unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested ESPP options at June 30, 2015.

Net Income Per Share

Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the combination of all dilutive common share equivalents, comprised of shares issuable under the Corporation’s share-based compensation plans, and the weighted-average shares outstanding during the reporting period.

Dilutive common share equivalents include the dilutive effect of in-the-money share-based awards, which are calculated based on the average share price for each period using the treasury stock method. Under the treasury stock method, the exercise price of share-based awards, the amount of compensation expense, if any, for future service that the Corporation has not yet recognized, and the amount of estimated tax benefits that would be recorded in additional paid-in capital when share-based awards are exercised, are assumed to be used to repurchase common stock in the current period.

The following table reconciles basic and diluted net income per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014.



	Three Months Ended June 30,

IMPACT OF ACCOUNTING CHANGES

FASB ASU 2015-07, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosures for Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent)

In May 2015, FASB, issued 2015-07, Disclosures for Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent), which addresses the diversity in practice related to how certain investments measured at net asset value with future redemption dates are categorized. The amendments remove the requirement to categorize investments for which fair values are measured using the net asset value per share practical expedient. It also limits disclosures to investments for which the entity has elected to measure the fair value using the practical expedient. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. Adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a significant effect on the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements.

GENERAL LITIGATION AND REGULATORY EXAMINATIONS

On July 8, 2015, a purported shareholder of Ameriana Bancorp filed a putative class action lawsuit captioned Shiva Stein, individually and on behalf of other similarly situated vs. Ameriana Bancorp et al., Cause No. 49D10-1507-PL-022566 in Marion County, Indiana Superior Court 10 against Ameriana Bancorp, its board of directors and First Merchants Corporation. Plaintiff's complaint alleges breach of fiduciary duty and/or aiding and abetting a breach of fiduciary duty regarding the proposed merger of Ameriana into First Merchants. The plaintiff seeks (1) class certification, (2) to enjoin the merger, (3) compensatory damages in an unspecified amount, and (4) an accounting of unspecified damages, and costs, disbursements and professional fees. At this early stage of the litigation, it is not possible to assess the probability of a material adverse outcome or reasonably estimate any potential financial impact of the lawsuit on First Merchants. The defendants believe the claims against them are without merit and intend to contest the matter vigorously.

The Corporation is also subject to other claims and lawsuits that arise primarily in the ordinary course of business. Additionally, the Corporation is subject to periodic examinations by various regulatory agencies. It is the opinion of management that the disposition or ultimate resolution of such claims, lawsuits, and examinations will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flow of the Corporation.

NOTE 17

CONSUMMATION OF MERGER

On June 26, 2015, the Corporation and Ameriana Bancorp, an Indiana corporation (“Ameriana Bancorp”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization and Merger (the “Ameriana Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which, Ameriana Bancorp will, subject to the terms and conditions of the Ameriana Merger Agreement, merge with and into the Corporation (the “Ameriana Merger”), whereupon the separate corporate existence of Ameriana Bancorp will cease and the Corporation will survive. Immediately following the Ameriana Merger, Ameriana Bank, an Indiana state commercial bank and wholly-owned subsidiary of Ameriana Bancorp, will be merged with and into the Bank, with the Bank, as the surviving bank. Based on the closing price of the Corporation's common stock on June 26, 2015 of $25.13 per share, the transaction value is estimated at approximately $68.8 million. The transaction is expected to be a tax-free stock exchange for Ameriana Bancorp’s shareholders who will be receiving the Corporation's common stock pursuant to the Ameriana Merger. Subject to Ameriana Bancorp’s shareholders’ approval of the Ameriana Merger, regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions, the parties anticipate completing the Ameriana Merger in the fourth quarter of 2015 or the first quarter of 2016.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Generally accepted accounting principles are complex and require us to apply significant judgments to various accounting, reporting and disclosure matters. We must use assumptions and estimates to apply those principles where actual measurement is not possible or practical. For a complete discussion of our significant accounting policies, see “Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. Certain policies are considered critical because they are highly dependent upon subjective or complex judgments, assumptions and estimates. Changes in such estimates may have a significant impact on the financial statements. We have reviewed the application of these policies with the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors.

We believe there have been no significant changes during the six months ended June 30, 2015, to the items that we disclosed as our critical accounting policies and estimates in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

NET INTEREST INCOME

Net interest income is the primary source of the Corporation’s earnings. Net interest margin is a function of net interest income and the level of average earning assets. Net interest income and net interest margin are presented in the following table on a fully taxable equivalent basis (“FTE”), which adjusts tax-exempt or nontaxable interest income to an amount that would be comparable to interest subject to income taxes using the federal statutory tax rate of 35 percent in effect for all periods.

For the periods presented, the increases in net interest income and average earning assets were primarily driven by the acquisitions of Community in November 2014 and C Financial in April 2015. As a result of the acquisitions, the Corporation recognized fair value accretion, which is included in interest income, of $2,158,000 and $2,173,000, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014. Net interest margin for the second quarter of 2015 decreased to 3.81 percent compared to the second quarter of 2014 at 3.89 percent, while earning assets increased by $488,000. Asset yields decreased 7 basis points FTE and interest costs increased 1 basis point, resulting in a 8 basis points FTE decrease in net interest margin as compared to the same period in 2014.

Net interest margin for the six months ended June 30, 2015 decreased to 3.79 percent compared to the six months ended June 30, 2014 at 3.93 percent, while earning assets increased by $444,000. Asset yields decreased 11 basis points FTE and interest costs increased 3 basis points, resulting in a 14 basis points FTE decrease in net interest margin as compared to the same period in 2014. Interest income included $4,328,000 and $3,942,000 of fair value accretion for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Additional details of the Corporation's acquisitions, remaining loan fair value discount, accretable and nonaccretable yield can be found in NOTE 2. ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES and NOTE 5. ACCOUNTING FOR CERTAIN LOANS ACQUIRED IN A PURCHASE, included within the Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements of this Form 10-Q.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

NON-INTEREST INCOME

Non-interest income increased $8.5 million, or 52.3 percent, in the second quarter of 2015, compared to the second quarter of 2014. On June 12, 2015, the Corporation sold all of its stock in FMIG. The sale generated a gain of $8.3 million. Additionally, in November 2014, the Corporation acquired Community, and in April 2015, the Corporation acquired C Financial. Each of the acquisitions contributed to a larger customer base, which resulted in an increase in gains on the sale of mortgage loans and other customer fees of $622,000 and $553,000, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2015 when compared to the same period in 2014. Additional details of the divestiture and acquisitions can be found in NOTE 2. ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES, included within the Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements of this Form 10-Q. Offsetting these increases, were the sale of investment securities, which generated net losses of $93,000, a decrease of $937,000, when compared to the $844,000 in net gains during the second quarter of 2014.

During the first six months of 2015, non-interest income increased $9.3 million, or 29.3 percent, over the same period in 2014. The sale of FMIG created an $8.3 million gain and the larger customer base from the Community and C Financial acquisitions contributed to increases in the gains on the sale of mortgage loans, other customer fees and fiduciary activities of $1,388,000, $487,000 and $244,000, respectively. Offsetting these increases, were the sale of investment securities, which generated net gains of $932,000, a decrease of $493,000, when compared to the $1.4 million in net gains during the six months ended June 30, 2014.

NON-INTEREST EXPENSE

Non-interest expense increased $5.2 million, or 12.5 percent, in the second quarter of 2015, compared to the second quarter of 2014. The largest increase was in salaries and employee benefits which increased $3.0 million, or 12.8 percent. This was primarily driven by the addition of personnel from the acquisitions of Community and C Financial. The Corporation also experienced an increase of $1.6 million in professional and other outside services, primarily acquisition and divestiture expenses, which consisted of legal and investment banker expenses of $852,000 and contract termination expenses related to the C Financial acquisition of $719,000. Additionally, the Corporation had an increase in equipment and net occupancy expenses of $744,000 and $299,000, respectively, due to the addition of Community and C Financial core system expenses and banking centers. Other expenses of $4.5 million increased $794,000 from the second quarter of 2014 as the Corporation's branch optimization strategy resulted in write-downs of existing banking centers of $335,000. These increases were offset by a decrease of $1.2 million in other real estate owned and foreclosure expenses as asset quality trends continue to improve from the same period last year.

During the first six months of 2015, non-interest expense increased $3.3 million, or 3.9 percent, when compared to the first six months of 2014. Salaries and employee benefits increased $2.2 million, or 4.6 percent, over the same period last year due to the addition of personnel from the acquisitions of Community and C Financial. The Corporation also experienced an increase of $1.7 million in professional and other outside services, primarily acquisition and divestiture expenses, which consisted of legal and investment banker expenses of $878,000 and contract termination expenses related to the C Financial acquisition of $719,000. Equipment expenses increased $571,000 due to running Community's and C Financial's core systems prior to integration. Other expenses of $7.6 million increased $669,000 from the same period of 2014 as the Corporation's branch optimization strategy resulted in write-downs of existing banking centers of $335,000. These increases were offset by a decrease of $1.8 million in other real estate owned and foreclosure expenses as asset quality trends continue to improve over the prior year.

INCOME TAXES

Income tax expense for the second quarter of 2015 was $8,856,000 on pre-tax net income of $26,824,000. For the same period in 2014, income tax expense was $5,888,000 on pre-tax net income of $21,048,000.

Income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2015 was $14,690,000 on pre-tax net income of $48,830,000. For the same period in 2014, income tax expense was $10,505,000 on pre-tax net income of $39,285,000.

The increase in the effective tax rate in the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, when compared to the same periods of 2014, was primarily a result of a permanent book-to-tax basis difference associated with the gain on sale of FMIG. Details of the FMIG sale and tax effect are included in NOTE 2. ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES and NOTE 11. INCOME TAX, included within the Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements of this Form 10-Q

Taxes, both current and deferred, decreased in the first six months of 2015 by $2,338,000. The decline in the net asset was primarily due to decreases in the deferred tax assets associated with the accounting for deferred and incentive compensation, loans, federal net operating loss carryforwards, and allowance for loan losses of $1,746,000, $1,075,000, $831,000 and $589,000, respectively. The deferred tax asset decreases were partially offset by a decline in the deferred tax liability associated with the accounting for unrealized gains on available for sale securities of $2,702,000.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

CAPITAL

Capital adequacy is an important indicator of financial stability and performance. The Corporation maintained a strong capital position as evidenced by the tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio of 9.03 percent at June 30, 2015, and 9.16 percent at December 31, 2014.

The Corporation and the Bank 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 four ratios that are calculated according to the regulations: total risk-based capital, Tier 1 risk-based capital, common equity Tier 1 capital, and Tier 1 leverage ratios. The ratios are intended to measure capital relative to assets and credit risk associated with those assets and off-balance sheet exposures of the entity. 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.

There are five capital categories defined in the regulations, ranging from well capitalized to critically undercapitalized. Classification of a bank in any of the undercapitalized categories can result in actions by regulators that could have a material effect on a bank's operations. Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of total and Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets, and of Tier 1 capital to average assets, or leverage ratio, all of which are calculated as defined in the regulations. Banks with lower capital levels are deemed to be undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized or critically undercapitalized, depending on their actual levels. The appropriate federal regulatory agency may also downgrade a bank to the next lower capital category upon a determination that the bank is in an unsafe or unsound practice. Banks are required to monitor closely their capital levels and to notify their appropriate regulatory agency of any basis for a change in capital category.

Basel III was effective for the Corporation on January 1, 2015. Basel III requires the Corporation and the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratio of common equity Tier 1 capital to risk weighted assets, as defined in the regulation. Under the new Basel III rules, in order to avoid limitations on capital distributions, including dividends, the Corporation must hold a capital conservation buffer above the adequately capitalized common equity Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets ratio. The capital conservation buffer is being phased in from zero percent to 2.50 percent by 2019. Under Basel III, the Corporation and Bank elected to opt-out of including accumulated other comprehensive income in regulatory capital. Regulatory capital ratios at June 30, 2015, were calculated under Basel III while regulatory capital ratios at December 31, 2014, were calculated under Basel I.

As of June 30, 2015, the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to be considered well capitalized. There is no threshold for well capitalized status for bank holding companies. The Corporation's and Bank's actual and required capital ratios as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 were as follows:

Tier I regulatory capital consists primarily of total stockholders’ equity and subordinated debentures issued to business trusts categorized as qualifying borrowings, less non-qualifying intangible assets and unrealized net securities gains or losses.

On November 7, 2014, the Corporation acquired 100 percent of Community. Pursuant to the merger agreement, each outstanding share of common stock of Community was converted into the right to receive either (a) 4.0926 shares of First Merchants' common stock, plus cash in lieu of fractional shares; or (b) $85.94 in cash, based upon shareholder elections. The Corporation paid $14.2 million in cash and issued approximately 1.6 million shares of common stock, valued at approximately $35.0 million, for a total purchase price of approximately $49.2 million.

Management believes that all of the above capital ratios are meaningful measurements for evaluating the safety and soundness of the Corporation. Additionally, management believes the following table is also meaningful when considering performance measures of the Corporation. The table details and reconciles tangible earnings per share, return on tangible capital and tangible assets to traditional GAAP measures for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014.

LOAN QUALITY/PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES

The Corporation’s primary lending focus is small business and middle market commercial, commercial real estate, residential real estate and small consumer lending, which results in portfolio diversification. Commercial loans are individually underwritten and judgmentally risk rated. They are periodically monitored and prompt corrective actions are taken on deteriorating loans. Retail loans are typically underwritten with statistical decision-making tools and are managed throughout their life cycle on a portfolio basis.

Loan Quality

The quality and amount of non-performing loans may increase or decrease going forward as a result of acquisitions, organic portfolio growth, problem loan recognition and resolution through collections, sales or charge offs. The performance of any loan can be affected by external factors such as economic conditions, or internal factors specific to a particular borrower, such as the actions of a customer's management.

At June 30, 2015, non performing loans totaled $38,598,000, a decrease of $12,183,000 from the December 31, 2014 balance of $50,781,000. Non-accrual loans totaled $37,713,000, and accounted for 91 percent of the decrease in non-performing loans from December 31, 2014. The Corporation’s coverage ratio of allowance for loan losses to non-accrual loans increased from 131.1 percent at December 31, 2014 to 165.9 percent at June 30, 2015. See additional information regarding the allowance for loan losses in the “Provision for Loan Losses” section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included as ITEM 2 of this Form 10-Q.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Accruing loans delinquent 90 or more days of $632,000 at June 30, 2015 decreased $4,031,000 from the December 31, 2014 balance of $4,663,000. There were no Commercial and industrial loans 90+ days delinquent and accruing at June 30, 2015, compared to the December 31, 2014 balance of $2,985,000.

Commercial impaired loans include all non-accrual loans, loans accounted for under ASC 310 as well as substandard, doubtful and loss grade loans that were still accruing but deemed impaired according to guidance set forth in ASC 310. Also included in impaired loans are accruing loans that are contractually past due 90 days or more and troubled debt restructurings.

A loan is deemed impaired when, based on current information or events, it is probable that all amounts due of principal and interest according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement will not be collected substantially within the contractual terms of the note. At June 30, 2015, commercial impaired loans totaled $101,797,000 a decrease of $14,426,000 from the December 31, 2014 balance of $116,223,000. At June 30, 2015, a specific allowance for losses was not deemed necessary for commercial impaired loans totaling $93,396,000 as there was no identified loss on these credits. A specific allowance of $3,088,000 was recorded for the remaining balance of these impaired loans totaling $8,401,000 and is included in the Corporation’s allowance for loan losses.

The following table details the Corporation's non-performing assets plus loans 90-days or more delinquent, and notes total commercial impaired loans for the periods indicated.

Although the Corporation believes its underwriting and loan review procedures are appropriate for the various kinds of loans it makes, its results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected in the event the quality of its loan portfolio declines. Deterioration in the economic environment including residential and commercial real estate values may result in increased levels of loan delinquencies and credit losses.

Provision for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses is maintained through the provision for loan losses, which is a charge against earnings. The amount actually provided for loan losses in any period may be greater than or less than net loan losses, based on management’s judgment as to the appropriate level of the allowance for loan losses. The amount provided for loan losses and the determination of the adequacy of the allowance are based on a continuous review of the loan portfolio, including an internally administered loan “watch” list and an ongoing loan review. The evaluation takes into consideration identified credit problems, as well as the possibility of losses inherent in the loan portfolio that are not specifically identified.

At June 30, 2015, the allowance for loan losses was $62,550,000, a decrease of $1,414,000 from December 31, 2014. As a percent of loans, the allowance was 1.47 percent at June 30, 2015, compared to 1.63 percent at December 31, 2014. The provision for loan losses for the six months ended June 30, 2015 was $417,000. There was no provision for loan losses for the six months ended June 30, 2014. Specific reserves on impaired loans increased $319,000 from $2,769,000 at December 31, 2014, to $3,088,000 at June 30, 2015.

Net charge offs for the six months ended June 30, 2015, were $1,831,000. Comparatively, the same period in 2014 had net recoveries of $497,000. For the three months ended June 30, 2015, there were no charge offs or recoveries greater than $500,000. The distribution of the net charge offs or recoveries for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 are reflected in the following table:



	Three Months Ended June 30,						Six Months Ended June 30,
(Dollars in Thousands)	2015			2014			2015			2014
Net Charge Offs (Recoveries):

Total Net Charge Offs	$	668		$	1,216		$	1,831		$	(497	)

Management continually evaluates the commercial loan portfolio by including consideration of specific borrower cash flow analysis and estimated collateral values, types and amounts on non-performing loans, past and anticipated loan loss experience, changes in the composition of the loan portfolio, and the current condition and amount of loans outstanding. The determination of the provision for loan losses in any period is based on management’s continuing review and evaluation of the loan portfolio, and its judgment as to the impact of current economic conditions on the portfolio.

LIQUIDITY

Liquidity management is the process by which the Bank ensures adequate liquid funds are available for the holding company and its subsidiaries. These funds are necessary in order to meet financial commitments on a timely basis. These commitments include withdrawals by depositors, funding credit obligations to borrowers, paying dividends to stockholders, paying operating expenses, funding capital expenditures, and maintaining deposit reserve requirements. Liquidity is monitored and closely managed by the asset/liability committee.

The Corporation’s liquidity is dependent upon our receipt of dividends from the Bank, which is subject to certain regulatory limitations and access to other funding sources. Liquidity of the Bank is derived primarily from core deposit growth, principal payments received on loans, the sale and maturity of investment securities, net cash provided by operating activities, and access to other funding sources.

The principal source of asset-funded liquidity is investment securities classified as available for sale, the market values of which totaled $575,415,000 at June 30, 2015, an increase of $25,872,000, or 4.7 percent, from December 31, 2014. Securities classified as held to maturity that are maturing within a short period of time, which totaled $7,831,000 at June 30, 2015, can also be a source of liquidity. In addition, other types of assets such as cash and due from banks, federal funds sold, and securities purchased under agreements to resell, loans and interest-bearing deposits with other banks maturing within one year are sources of liquidity.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The most stable source of liability-funded liquidity for both the long-term and short-term is deposit growth and retention in the core deposit base. In addition, Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) advances are utilized as funding sources. At June 30, 2015, total borrowings from the FHLB were $247,687,000. The Bank has pledged certain mortgage loans and investments to the FHLB. The total available remaining borrowing capacity from the FHLB at June 30, 2015, was $308,694,000.

On November 1, 2013, the Corporation completed the private issuance and sale to four institutional investors of an aggregate of $70 million of debt comprised of (a) 5.00 percent Fixed-to-Floating Rate Senior Notes due 2028 in the aggregate principal amount of $5 million (the "Senior Debt") and (b) 6.75 percent Fixed-to-Floating Rate Subordinated Notes due 2028 in the aggregate principal amount of $65 million (the "Subordinated Debt"). The Senior Debt agreement contains certain customary representations and warranties and financial and negative covenants. As of June 30, 2015, the Corporation was in compliance with these covenants.

Additionally, on April 11, 2014, the Corporation entered into a line of credit agreement with U.S. Bank, N.A. with a maximum borrowing capacity of $20 million. As of June 30, 2015, there was no outstanding balance on the line of credit. Interest is payable quarterly based on one-month LIBOR plus 2.00 percent. The line of credit has a quarterly facility fee of 0.25 percent on the unused balance. The line of credit agreement contains certain customary representations and warranties and financial and negative covenants. As of June 30, 2015, the Corporation was in compliance with these covenants. The line of credit was scheduled to mature on April 10, 2015; however, on April 9, 2015 the agreement was renewed with a maturity date of April 8, 2016.

In the normal course of business, the Bank is a party to a number of other off-balance sheet activities that contain credit, market and operational risk that are not reflected in whole or in part in our consolidated financial statements. Such activities include traditional off-balance sheet credit-related financial instruments, commitments under operating leases and long-term debt.

The Bank provides customers with off-balance sheet credit support through loan commitments and standby and commercial letters of credit. Summarized credit-related financial instruments at June 30, 2015, are as follows:



(Dollars in Thousands)	June 30, 2015
Amounts of commitments:
Loan commitments to extend credit	$	1,613,624
Standby and commercial letters of credit	43,404
	$	1,657,028

Since many of the commitments are expected to expire unused or be only partially used, the total amount of unused commitments in the preceding table does not necessarily represent future cash requirements.

In addition to owned banking facilities, the Corporation has entered into a number of long-term leasing arrangements to support ongoing activities. The required payments under such commitments and borrowings at June 30, 2015, are as follows:



(Dollars in Thousands)	Remaining 2015		2016		2017		2018		2019		2020		2021 and after		Total

INTEREST SENSITIVITY AND DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

Asset/Liability Management has been an important factor in the Corporation's ability to record consistent earnings growth through periods of interest rate volatility and product deregulation. Management and the Board of Directors monitor the Corporation's liquidity and interest sensitivity positions at regular meetings to review how changes in interest rates may affect earnings. Decisions regarding investment and the pricing of loan and deposit products are made after analysis of reports designed to measure liquidity, rate sensitivity, the Corporation’s exposure to changes in net interest income given various rate scenarios and the economic and competitive environments.

It is the objective of the Corporation to monitor and manage risk exposure to net interest income caused by changes in interest rates. It is the goal of the Corporation’s Asset/Liability function to provide optimum and stable net interest income. To accomplish this, management uses two asset liability tools. GAP/Interest Rate Sensitivity Reports and Net Interest Income Simulation Modeling are constructed, presented and monitored quarterly.

Net interest income simulation modeling, or earnings-at-risk, measures the sensitivity of net interest income to various interest rate movements. The Corporation's asset liability process monitors simulated net interest income under three separate interest rate scenarios; base, rising and falling. Estimated net interest income for each scenario is calculated over a 12-month horizon. The immediate and parallel changes to the base case scenario used in the model are presented below. The interest rate scenarios are used for analytical purposes and do not necessarily represent management's view of future market movements. Rather, these are intended to provide a measure of the degree of volatility interest rate movements may introduce into the earnings of the Corporation.

The base scenario is highly dependent on numerous assumptions embedded in the model, including assumptions related to future interest rates. While the base sensitivity analysis incorporates management's best estimate of interest rate and balance sheet dynamics under various market rate movements, the actual behavior and resulting earnings impact will likely differ from that projected. For certain assets, the base simulation model captures the expected prepayment behavior under changing interest rate environments. Assumptions and methodologies regarding the interest rate or balance behavior of indeterminate maturity products, such as savings, money market, NOW and demand deposits, reflect management's best estimate of expected future behavior.

The comparative rising 200 basis points and falling 100 basis points scenarios below, as of June 30, 2015, assume further interest rate changes in addition to the base simulation discussed above. These changes are immediate and parallel changes to the base case scenario. In the current rate environment, many driver rates are at or near historical lows, thus total rate movements (beginning point minus ending point) to each of the various driver rates utilized by management have the following results:

Results for the base, rising 200 basis points, and falling 100 basis points interest rate scenarios are listed below based upon the Corporation’s rate sensitive assets and liabilities at June 30, 2015. The net interest income shown represents cumulative net interest income over a 12-month time horizon.

EARNING ASSETS

The following table presents the earning asset mix as of June 30, 2015, and December 31, 2014. Earning assets increased by $318,711,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2015. Interest-bearing time deposits decreased $20,851,000, while investments increased by approximately $31,885,000. Loans and loans held for sale increased by $314,400,000, of which $110,625,000 were a result of the C Financial acquisition on April 17, 2015. Additional details of the transaction can be found in NOTE 2. ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES, included within the Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements of this Form 10-Q. The three loan classes experiencing the largest increase from December 31, 2014, were commercial and industrial loans, real estate construction and other commercial loans. These increases were offset by decreases primarily in two loan classes, which were agricultural production financing and individuals' loans for household and other personal expenditures.
