The following excerpts relating to Old National Bancorp’s pending acquisition of Indiana Community Bancorp are
from a presentation by Old National Bancorp’s President and Chief Executive Officer on February 29, 2012 at the 2012 Keefe, Bruyette & Woods Boston Bank Conference.
Robert G. Jones, President and CEO:
…One of the things we like to do in our presentation is to anticipate potential questions that you might have as
investors and these are currently the questions we’ve heard through the day and that we hear consistently from our investors. Probably most “tip of the tongue” for everybody is Why Indiana Bancorp?...
…So Why Indiana Community Bancorp? First and foremost we think it’s an absolute strong strategic fit for us.
One of our views of the world is that as a company you go down two tracks. One is that you earn your independence through quality earnings. The second is you create relevancy as a franchise. What Indiana Community does for us is fills in a very nice
strategic gap in the southeast portion of the state. You take that I-65 corridor… they are headquartered in Columbus, Indiana… arguably one of the best non-Indianapolis markets in the state and it continues to fill our objective of being
Indiana’s bank. So why is that important to us as a bank and why is that important to you as investors? We think it’s relevant. We think that if you create a bank of relevancy in the state of Indiana, it’s desirable. Again, those two
tracks that you go down, somebody might feel as though we’re an important cog to their wheel as well. It doesn’t mean we want to sell, don’t read anything into it, but I think their job is to create that relevancy and Indiana
Community helped us to do that. Again, as I mentioned, it’s that attractive I-65 corridor. For those of you who are not familiar with the Indiana market, it really connects Louisville with Indianapolis… a good manufacturing market.
Columbus, Indiana is home to Cummins. Cummins has made significant investments in the community. As I said, Columbus is one of the strongest markets in the state… very low unemployment.
Probably more important for us when we look at M & A and we look at potential partners, it’s really the culture.
It’s really about if there is a blend of culture. Do you have the same value sets? Because I’ve lived through enough mergers and acquisitions over my days. Systems integration and product integration are pretty
easy to do. You know how to do those things. It’s really how do you get the troops on the side of the new partner to work with the troops on the side of the old partner. You really make one
plus one equal three. What we found in Indiana Community is a very, very similar culture to what we have and we are very impressed with their management team. We’ve known these folks for over 7 years and we’re glad that both the CEO and
CFO as well as other members of the team have agreed to join our team and will play very significant roles in the new company. So again, going back to Why Indiana Community? It’s a very strong strategic fit. That’s really the first screen
we use when we look at M & A. The transaction is also financially compelling. EPS accretion of somewhere between $0.06-$0.08 cents in the first full year before one-time costs. We expect to get over 35% cost saves. One of the things that we
value ourselves on is when we talk about potential acquisitions… you will never hear Old National talk about revenue synergies. We call those “if-comes”… if they come, that’s great. If they don’t come, I don’t want
to have to justify why they didn’t. So any of our accretion is really based on our ability to drive off costs. … again our commitment to the street on Indiana Community is we feel as though we are going to be able to get 35% in cost saves
and this did exceed our internal hurdle rate. I think probably from a strategic standpoint you can see it’s a nice fit. On slide 13, again it fits that nice corridor. You can see that southern Indiana, we’ve got a pretty good franchise,
it’s pretty dense, significant market share in most of our markets, significant presence in Indianapolis, the state capitol, and a growing presence in northern Indiana. So again, that’s why we think Indiana Community Bank makes a lot of
sense. The wrap we’ve gotten out of the deal and probably most of the questions I’ve received all day relate to the tangible book value earnback. What I would tell you is a couple of things. I think one, our marks are appropriate. We think
they’re conservative, but that’s the nature of Old National. That’s how we look at credit. We downgrade credits for documentation issues, whether it is appraisals, updated financials, and we do look at cash flows. So the mark is…
again we think it’s appropriate, but it’s a large mark both on the interest rate as well as the credit side.
…I would argue that we’re all trying to figure out purchase accounting and the impact on tangible book value. There’s not been very many traditional deals done in this new wave… will I
get the earnback? I get the concern. I would tell you that strategically and from a financial return on shareholders, we feel very comfortable with the Indiana Community transaction.
… We will continue to look for cross sell opportunities with our partners. … Indiana Community does not have an
insurance presence. …we think there is going to be an opportunity within Columbus.
Q & A:
Q: [Chris McGratty]: With the Indiana Community... something we looked at is the holding company liquidity.
They had TARP, how they were going to refinance was a big problem, probably, and we’ve seen other banks with M & A transactions transpire because of that. If you could just comment on if you think that’s a developing trend that we
should be looking at?
A: [Bob Jones]: I think clearly you’re hearing more and more banks that
have TARP are getting communication with Treasury on “what are you going to do about your TARP?” I think with the year 2014 being an important year for the TARP, clearly I think it was on the mind of the Board of Indiana Community and
their CEO and management team, I think it was a big issue….
