Old National BancorpNotes to Consolidated Financial Statements
1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Old National Bancorp and its affiliate entities ("Old National"). All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. In the opinion of management, the consolidated financial statements contain all the normal and recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position of Old National as of March 31, 2001 and 2000 and December 31, 2000, and the results of its operations for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000 and its cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000. All prior period information has been restated for the effects of business combinations accounted for as pooling-of-interests as discussed in Note 3 .
2. Net Income Per Share
Net income per common share computations are based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the periods presented. A 5% stock dividend was paid January 30, 2001 to shareholders of record on January 9, 2001. All share and per share data presented herein have been restated for the effects of the stock dividend.
Net income on a diluted basis is computed as above and assumes the conversion of Old National's 8% convertible subordinated debentures (Note 5) for the periods they were outstanding. For the diluted computation, net income is adjusted for the assumed reduction in interest expense, net of income tax effect, and additional common shares are assumed to be issued in connection with the conversion of the remaining outstanding debentures.

("Heritage") of Clarksville, Tennessee, consummated a merger in which Old National issued 2,191,322 common shares in exchange for all of the outstanding common shares of Heritage.

On March 10, 2000, Old National and ANB Corporation ("ANB") of Muncie, Indiana, consummated a merger in which Old National issued 7,316,153 common shares in exchange for all of the outstanding common shares of ANB.

Old National has registered Series A Medium-Term Notes in the principal amount of $50 million. The series has been fully issued. As of March 31, 2001, a total of $24.5 million of the notes were outstanding, with maturities ranging from one to two years and fixed interest rates of 6.9% to 7.0%. At March 31, 2000, Old National had outstanding $24.5 million of medium term notes.
Old National also has registered Medium-Term Notes in the principal amount of $150 million. $85.7 million of notes are available for issuance at March 31, 2001. These notes may be issued with maturities of nine months or more and rates may either be fixed or variable. As of March 31, 2001, a total of $59.3 million of the notes were outstanding, with maturities ranging from two to seven years and fixed interest rates from 6.4% to 7.0%. At March 31, 2000, Old National had $59.3 million outstanding.
As of March 31, 2001, Old National has $25 million in an unsecured line of credit with an unaffiliated bank. This line of credit includes various arrangements to maintain compensating balances or pay fees. As of March 31, 2001 there were no borrowings under this line. At March 31, 2000 there was $5.0 million borrowed on similar lines of credit.
6. Guaranteed Preferred Beneficial Interests in Company's Subordinated Debentures
During March 2000, Old National issued $50 million of trust preferred securities through a subsidiary, Old National Capital Trust I. The trust preferred securities have a liquidation amount of $25 per share with a cumulative annual distribution rate of 9.5%, or $2.375 per share, payable quarterly, and maturing on March 15, 2030.
Old National may redeem the subordinated debentures and thereby cause a redemption of the trust preferred securities in whole (or in part from time to time) on or after March 15, 2005, or in whole (but not in part) following the occurrence and continuance of certain adverse federal income tax or capital treatment events.
Costs associated with the issuance of the trust preferred securities totaling $1.8 million were capitalized and are being amortized through the maturity date of the securities. The unamortized balance is included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheet.
7. Interest Rate Contracts
Old National adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 133 "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities", as amended by SFAS No. 138 "Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities, an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133" on January 1, 2001. A $35 thousand reduction to current income was recorded as a transition adjustment.
Old National's derivatives are classified as fair value hedges, as defined by SFAS No. 133, and are recorded at fair value on the Balance Sheet. The change in fair value of the derivative and hedged item along with any ineffectiveness of the hedge is recorded in current earnings and was immaterial for the quarter ended March 31, 2001.
Old National uses interest rate contracts such as interest swaps to manage its interest rate risk. These contracts are designated as hedges of specific assets and liabilities. The net interest receivable or payable on swaps is accrued and recognized as an adjustment to the interest income or expense of the hedged asset or liability. The premium paid for an interest rate cap is included in the basis of the hedged item and is amortized as an adjustment to the interest income or expense on the related asset or liability.
At March 31, 2001, Old National has interest rate swaps with a notional value of $175 million. The contracts are an exchange of interest payments with no effect on the principal amounts of the underlying hedged liabilities. The fair value of the swaps was $4.0 million as of March 31, 2001. Old National pays the counterparty a variable rate based on LIBOR and receives fixed rates ranging from 5.625% to 7.23%. The contracts terminate on or prior to May 3, 2009.
Old National is exposed to losses if a counterparty fails to make its payments under a contract in which Old National is in the receiving position. Although collateral or other security is not obtained, Old National minimizes its credit risk by monitoring the credit standing of the counterparties and anticipates that the counterparties will be able to fully satisfy their obligation under the agreements.

10. Impact of Accounting Changes
In September 2000, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 140, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing Financial Assets and Extinguishment of Liabilities" that replaced SFAS No. 125. While much of SFAS No. 125 was incorporated into SFAS No. 140, certain standards for accounting for securitizations and other transfers of financial assets and disclosures were revised. This statement is effective for transfers made after March 31, 2001, and certain disclosures are effective for years ending after December 15, 2000. Old National does not believe the impact of this statement to be material to its financial conditions and results of operations.
11. Merger and Restructuring Charges
During the first quarter of 2000, Old National closed two mergers, finalized the charter consolidation efforts which began in 1999 and recorded related merger and restructuring charges of $22.5 million. Included in these charges were merger-related costs, system conversion costs, balance sheet restructuring, elimination of duplicate or unnecessary facilities, centralization of certain support functions and personnel severance costs related to these items. The majority of these charges have occurred. The remaining accrual as of March 31, 2001 is immaterial. The components of the charges are shown below ($ in thousands).

PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION
ITEM 2.
Management's Discussion and Analysis of
The following management's discussion and analysis is presented to provide information concerning the financial condition of Old National as of March 31, 2001, as compared to March 31, 2000 and December 31, 2000, and the results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000.
Financial Condition
Old National's assets at March 31, 2001 were $8.810 billion, an 8.0% increase since March 2000 and a 1.9% increase since December 2000. Earning assets, which consist primarily of money market investments, investment securities and loans, grew 7.8% over the prior year. During the past year, the mix of earning assets reflected loan growth of 6.4% while money market investments and investment securities increased a combined 12.7%. Since December 2000, earning assets increased 3.6% with loans decreasing 5.3% and investment securities and money market investments increasing 34.6%. Commercial real estate loans have increased 32.6% over prior year and 5.1% over December 2000. Commercial loans have increased 16.6% over prior year and 7.0% since December 2000. Residential real estate loans have decreased 19.0% from prior year and 28.7% from December 2000 due to sales or securitizations of existing and recently originated fixed-rate mortgage originations which began in the third quarter of 2000. The pace o f new originations sales increased in the first quarter due to the lower rate environment.
At March 31, 2001, total under-performing assets (defined as loans 90 days or more past due, nonaccrual and restructured loans and foreclosed properties) increased to $34.0 million from $33.1 million as of December 31, 2000. As of these dates, under-performing assets in total were 0.54% and 0.52%, respectively, of total loans and foreclosed properties.

As of March 31, 2001, the recorded investment in loans for which impairment has been recognized in accordance with SFAS Nos. 114 and 118 was $10.2 million with no related allowance and $156.0 million with $34.4 million of related allowance.
Old National's policy for recognizing income on impaired loans is to accrue earnings unless a loan becomes nonaccrual. A loan is generally placed on nonaccrual status when principal or interest becomes 90 days past due unless it is well secured and in the process of collection, or earlier when concern exists as to the ultimate collectibility of principal or interest. When loans are classified as nonaccrual, interest accrued during the current year is reversed against earnings; interest accrued in the prior year, if any, is charged to the allowance for loan losses. Cash received while a loan is classified nonaccrual is recorded to principal.
For the three months ended March 31, 2001, the average balance of impaired loans was $153.4 million and $3.2 million of interest was recorded.
Old National's consolidated loan portfolio is well diversified and contains no concentrations of credit in any particular industry exceeding 10% of its portfolio. Old National has minimal exposure to construction lending or leveraged buyouts and no exposure in credits to foreign or lesser-developed countries.
Total deposits at March 31, 2001, increased $346.2 million or 5.7% compared to March 2000. Brokered certificates of deposit, included in time deposits, decreased $72.7 million since March 2000. Since December 2000, total deposits decreased $198.4 million or 12.1% with brokered certificates of deposit decreasing $65.9 million in this same period.
Short-term borrowings, comprised of Federal funds purchased, securities sold under agreements to repurchase and other short-term borrowings, increased $51.6 million since March 2000 and increased $86.2 million since December 2000. Other borrowings, which is primarily advances from Federal Home Loan Banks, increased $179.3 million over March 2000 and increased $145.6 million over December 2000.
Capital
Total shareholders' equity increased $79.1 million since March 2000 and $16.3 million since December 2000. Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), primarily net unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities, increased $50.2 million since March 2000 and increased $17.8 million since December 2000.
Old National's consolidated capital position remains strong as evidenced by the following comparisons of key industry ratios:

Asset/Liability Management
Old National actively manages its asset/liability position. The primary purpose of asset/liability management is to minimize the effect on net income of changes in interest rates and to maintain a prudent match within specified time periods of rate-sensitive assets and rate-sensitive liabilities.
Old National also uses net interest income simulation modeling to better quantify the impact of potential interest rate fluctuations on net interest income. With this understanding, management can best determine possible balance sheet changes, pricing strategies, and appropriate levels of capital and liquidity which allow Old National to generate strong net interest income while controlling and monitoring interest rate risk. Old National simulates an instantaneous (shock) change in rates of 200 basis points up or down over 12 months and sustained for an additional 12 months. The policy limit for the maximum negative impact on net interest income over 24 months is 5%. At March 31, 2001 Old National was within that limit as the model's fluctuation was under 4% for the first 12 months and under 3% for the total 24 month period. Old National's funds management committee meets quarterly to monitor the asset/liability position and effect changes as needed in the consolidated rate-sensitivity position.
Results of Operations
Net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2001 was $22.1 million, compared to $9.0 million for the same quarter last year with the inclusion of significant merger and restructuring costs as discussed below. Diluted earnings per common share were $0.37 for the quarter compared to $0.15 for the same period of the prior year.
The 2000 results included $22.5 million of merger and restructuring charges. Included in the first quarter merger and restructuring charge was $3.4 million in securities losses related to the Heritage and ANB balance sheet restructuring, $4.5 million of severance and employee-related costs, $5.7 million in professional fees, $3.7 million in write-downs of fixed assets and $1.3 million of other merger and restructuring costs. Also included in the $22.5 million merger and restructuring expense was a $3.8 million provision for loan losses that was charged to earnings on the merger date to conform ANB with Old National's credit policies.
For 2001, return on average assets (ROA) was 1.01% for the quarter and return on equity (ROE) was 14.22%. Excluding the above merger and restructuring charges, these compared to 2000 results of 1.16% quarter-to-date ROA and 15.41% ROE. Growth in net interest income and other income offset some of the additional expenses during the quarter.
Net Interest Income/Net Interest Margin (taxable equivalent basis)
Quarter-to-date net interest income for 2001 was $74,668, a 3.1% increase over 2000. The net interest margin for the quarter was 3.63% for 2001 compared to 3.82% for 2000.
Provision and Allowance for Loan Losses
The provision for loan losses was $4.0 million for the quarter compared to $7.4 million for the same quarter in 2000. Merger-related provision was $3.8 million in the first quarter of 2000. Old National's net charge-offs were 0.25% of average loans for the current quarter, compared to 0.15% in the same quarter of 2000.
The allowance for loan losses is continually monitored and evaluated at the holding company level to provide adequate coverage for potential losses. Old National maintains a comprehensive loan review program to provide independent evaluations of loan administration, credit quality, loan documentation, and adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. The allowance for loan losses to end-of-period loans of 1.18% at March 31, 2001 compares to 1.21% in 2000. The allowance for loan losses covers all under-performing loans by 2.5 times at March 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000.
Excluding securities gains (losses), noninterest income increased 7.8% in the three months ended March 31, 2001 as compared to the same period in 2000. Service charges on deposit accounts were up 50.5% for the quarter mainly due to additional overdraft fees generated. Insurance premiums and commissions increased 15.5% over 2000. Bank-owned life insurance increased $0.4 million over prior year due to increased earnings on the underlying assets that benefited from continued impact of the higher rate environment during most of 2000. Prior year other income included a gain of $2.4 million recorded in the first quarter 2000 on the sale of the merchant credit card business. This sale also negatively impacted loan fees. Most other categories of noninterest income were comparable to last year's results.
Noninterest expense increased 12.3% in the first quarter of 2001 compared to 2000. Salaries and benefits, together the largest individual component of noninterest expense, increased 6.7% in the quarter. Increases in utilities and real estate taxes and the addition of new offices caused occupany expense to increase 20.1% over prior year. Professional fees increased $0.6 million for the quarter primarily due to one-time consulting expenses incurred for implementation of the new Privacy Act requirements. Other expense increased $2.3 million over the same quarter of 2000. The current year other expense includes an increase of amortization of intangible assets of $0.9 million quarter-to-date and checking and saving losses over 2000 of $0.6 million for the quarter. Most other categories of noninterest expense experienced relatively small changes between the years.
Provision for Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes, as a percentage of pre-tax income, was 24.2% compared to 8.9% in 2000. Excluding merger and restructuring charges the prior year would have been 27.5%.
