Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Table Dollar Amounts in Thousands, Except Per Share Data)


Note 1 —  Accounting Policies

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Horizon Bancorp (Horizon) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Horizon Bank, N.A. (Bank).  All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated.  The results of operations for the periods ended June 30, 2007 and June 30, 2006, are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year of 2007 or 2006.  The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of Horizon's management, necessary to fairly present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of Horizon for the periods presented.  Those adjustments consist only of normal recurring adjustments.

Certain information and note disclosures normally included in Horizon'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 financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in Horizon's Form 10-K annual report for 2006 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  The consolidated balance sheet of Horizon as of December 31, 2006, has been derived from the audited balance sheet of Horizon as of that date.

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding.  Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock.  In August 2002, substantially all of the participants in Horizon’s Stock Option and Stock Appreciation Rights Plans voluntarily entered into an agreement with Horizon to cap the value of their stock appreciation rights (“SARS”) at $14.67 per share and cease any future vesting of the SARS.  These agreements with option holders make it more advantageous to exercise an option rather than a SAR whenever Horizon’s stock price exceeds $14.67 per share, therefore the option becomes potentially dilutive at $14.67 per share or higher.  The following table shows the number of shares used in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share.

Note 2 — Change in Accounting Principle

Horizon files income tax returns in the U.S. Federal, Indiana, and Michigan jurisdictions.  With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. Federal, state and local examinations by tax authorities for years before 2004.
 
The Company adopted the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Interpretation No. 48 (FIN 48), Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109, on January 1, 2007.  FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.  FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.  As a result of the implementation of FIN 48, no material liabilities for uncertain tax positions have been recorded, however, the Company reduced its liabilities for certain tax positions by $563,000.  This reduction was recorded as a cumulative effect adjustment to equity. The following financial statement line items for 2007 were affected by the change in accounting principle.

Note 3 – Future Accounting Pronouncements

On September 6, 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 157, Fair Value Measurements.  SFAS 157 clarifies the fair value measurement objective, its application in GAAP and establishes a framework that builds on current practice and requirements.  The framework simplifies and, where appropriate, codifies the similar guidance in existing pronouncements and applies broadly to financial and non-financial assets and liabilities.  The Statement clarifies the definition of fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, known as an exit-price definition of fair value.  It also provides further guidance on the valuation techniques to be used in estimating fair value.  Current disclosures about the use of fair value to measure assets and liabilities are expanded in this Statement.  The disclosures focus on the methods used for fair value measurements and apply whether the assets and liabilities are measured at fair value in all periods, such as trading securities, or in only some periods, such as impaired assets.   The Statement is effective for all financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15th, 2007 as well as for interim periods within such fiscal years.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this Statement on its financial statements.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities – Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 which will permit entities to measure many financial instruments and certain other assets and liabilities at fair value on an instrument-by-instrument basis (the Fair Value Option).  The Fair Value Option permits all entities to choose to measure eligible items at fair value at specified election dates.  An entity will be required to report unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected in earnings at each subsequent reporting date.  SFAS No. 159 is expected to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions and is effective as of the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007.  Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of a fiscal year that begins on or before November 15, 2007, provided the entity also elects to apply the provisions of SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements.  The Company did not elect to early adopt SFAS No. 159 and has not yet made a determination if it will elect to apply the options available in SFAS No. 159.

In September 2006, FASB ratified the consensus reached by the EITF in Issue No. 06-4 “Accounting for Deferred Compensation and Post-retirement Benefit Aspects of Endorsement Split-Dollar Life Insurance Arrangements.”  EITF 06-4 requires companies with split-dollar life insurance policies that provide a benefit to an employee that extends to post retirement periods to recognize a liability for future benefits based on the substantive agreement with the employee.   Companies are permitted to recognize the effects of applying the consensus through either (1) a change in accounting principle through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings or to other components of equity or net assets as of the beginning of the year of adoption or (2) a change in accounting principle through retrospective application to all prior periods.  EITF 06-4 will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007, with early adoption permitted.  We are currently evaluating the impact, if any, that EITF 06-4 will have on our consolidated financial condition and results of operations.

Forward–Looking Statements

This report contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, with respect to Horizon Bancorp (“Horizon” or “Company”) and Horizon Bank, N.A. (“Bank”).  Horizon intends such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Reform Act of 1995, and is including this statement for the purposes of these safe harbor provisions.  Forward-looking statements, which are based on certain assumptions and describe future plans, strategies and expectations of Horizon, are generally identifiable by use of the words "believe," "expect," "intend," "anticipate," "estimate," "project" or similar expressions.  Horizon's ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Factors which could have a material adverse effect on Horizon's future activities and operating results include, but are not limited to:

·  
credit risk: the risk that loan customers or other parties will be unable to perform their contractual obligations;
 
·  
market risk:  the risk that changes in market rates and prices will adversely affect our financial condition or results of operation;
 
·  
liquidity risk:  the risk that Horizon or the Bank will have insufficient cash or access to cash to meet its operating needs; and
 
·  
operational risk: the risk of loss resulting from inadequate or failed internal processes, people and systems, or external events.

These risks and uncertainties should be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements.

Introduction

The purpose of this discussion is to focus on Horizon's financial condition, changes in financial condition and the results of operations in order to provide a better understanding of the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere herein.  This discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the related notes.

Overview

Net income for the second quarter and the six months ended June 30, 2007 increased from the same periods of 2006. The major factor causing the improved performance from the prior year was an increase in non-interest income. Approximately 90% of new conforming residential mortgage loans are being sold compared to approximately 50% in 2006. This caused the gain on sale of loans to almost double. Despite an increase in average earning assets, net interest income showed only a slight increase from the prior year due to a decline in net interest margin. A large portion of the increase in non-interest expense relates to the wholesale mortgage operation which began in June of 2006.

Critical Accounting Policies

The notes to the consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 on Form 10-K contain a summary of the Company's significant accounting policies and are presented on pages 44-50 of Form 10-K for 2006. Certain of these policies are important to the portrayal of the Company's financial condition, since they require management to make difficult, complex or subjective judgments, some of which may relate to matters that are inherently uncertain.  Please refer to Horizon’s 2006 10-K for a detailed discussion of what Horizon considers to be its critical accounting policies.

Financial Condition

Liquidity

The Bank maintains a stable base of core deposits provided by long standing relationships with consumers and local businesses.  These deposits are the principal source of liquidity for Horizon.  Other sources of liquidity for Horizon include earnings, loan repayment, investment security sales and maturities, sale of real estate and installment loans and borrowing relationships with correspondent banks, including the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB).  During the six months ended June 30, 2007, cash and cash equivalents decreased by approximately $33.9 million.  At June 30, 2007, in addition to liquidity provided from the normal operating, funding, and investing activities of Horizon, the Bank has available approximately $137 million in unused credit lines with various money center banks including the FHLB.

There have been no other material changes in the liquidity of Horizon from December 31, 2006 to June 30, 2007.

Capital Resources

Stockholders' equity totaled $63.172 million as of June 30, 2007 compared to $61.877 million as of December 31, 2006.  The increase in stockholders' equity during the six months ended June 30, 2007 is primarily the result of net income, net of dividends declared, and the amortization of unearned compensation. The increase was partially offset by a decline in the market value of Horizon’s investment securities available for sale.  At June 30, 2007, the ratio of stockholders' equity to assets was 5.30% compared to 5.06% at December 31, 2006.

As a condition of approval for the Alliance acquisition, the OCC required Horizon Bank to maintain regulatory capital ratios at 100 basis points above the “well capitalized” minimums.  At June 30, 2007 Horizon Bank’s ratio of risk based capital to risk weighted assets was 10.92% which is eight basis points below the required ratio (including the 100 basis point cushion) of 11.0%. Horizon Bank has contacted the OCC and requested that the excess capital requirement be removed since classified loans, acquired in the Alliance acquisition, have decreased from approximately $10 million to approximately $2.0 million. All three regulatory capital ratios remain above the regulatory well capitalized minimums at June 30 2007.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations
For the Three and Six Months Periods Ended June 30, 2007


During the course of a periodic examination by the Bank’s regulators that commenced in February 2003, the examination personnel raised the issue of whether the Bank’s mortgage warehouse loans should be treated as other loans rather than home mortgages for call report purposes.  If these loans are treated as other loans for regulatory reporting purposes, it would change the calculations for risk-based capital and reduce the Bank’s risk-based capital ratios.  Management believes that it has properly characterized the loans in its mortgage warehouse loan portfolio for risk-based capital purposes, but there is no assurance that the regulators will concur with that determination.  Should the call report classification of the loans be changed, Horizon and the Bank would still be categorized as well capitalized at June 30, 2007.

There have been no other material changes in Horizon's capital resources from December 31, 2006 to June 30, 2007.

Material Changes in Financial Condition – June 30, 2007 compared to December 31, 2006

During the first six months of 2007, investment securities decreased approximately $18.5 million and loans outstanding increased approximately $5.6 million.  Short term securities matured and the proceeds were used to fund the redemption of $12 million of trust preferred securities. The proceeds of other maturities and payments on various mortgage backed securities have not been replaced in the investment portfolio, but used to fund loan growth and maintain the level of short term borrowings. The increase in loans is a combination of growth in commercial loans, primarily commercial real estate and installment loans (both home equity and automobile loans). Also impacting installment loans was approximately $6 million of home equity loans originated and held for sale by the wholesale mortgage area which were moved to the consumer loan permanent portfolio when the wholesale operation was discontinued. Mortgage warehouse loans have declined due to a general slowdown in residential mortgage activity.

Included in the mortgage warehouse totals are approximately $23.9 million of mortgage loans, which are classified as Alt “A” or subprime. These loans represent approximately 2.8% of Horizon’s total loan portfolio. These loans are purchased from independent mortgage brokers, and held, normally for approximately two weeks, when they are sold to the final end investor. The majority of these loans have a firm end investor take out commitment in place when purchased by Horizon. All of these loans are current and secured by one to four family residential real estate.

Horizon’s allowance for loan losses at June 30, 2007 was $8.7 million, or 1.02% of gross loans, compared to $8.7 million or 1.04% at December 31, 2006.  Non-performing assets at June 30, 2007 were $2.6 million or 0.30% of gross loans compared to and $2.7 million, or 0.32% of gross loans, at December 31, 2006. Horizon considers the allowance for loan losses to be adequate to cover losses inherent in the loan portfolio as of June 30, 2007.

Other assets increased due to the purchase of an additional $8 million of Bank Owned Life Insurance.

Deposits declined, as a large deposit made by a local municipality at year-end 2006 was withdrawn in their normal course of business in early January 2007.  Total average deposits for the first six months of 2007 have increased approximately $38.7 million from the same period of 2006.  Long-term borrowings increased to reduce the reliance on short term negotiable certificates of deposit acquired primarily from local public entities.

There have been no other material changes in the financial condition of Horizon from December 31, 2006 to June 30, 2007.

Results of Operations

Material Changes in Results of Operations – Three months ended June 30, 2007 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2006

During the three months ended June 30, 2007, net income totaled $2.016 million or $.62 per diluted share compared to $1.834 million or $.57 per diluted share for the same period in 2006.

Net interest income for the quarter ended June 30, 2007, was $8.042 million, an increase of $206 thousand or 2.6% over the same period of the prior year.  This increase resulted from an increase in average earning assets from the same quarter of the prior year of $63 million or 6.3%.  Offsetting the growth in earning assets was a decline in net interest margin. The margin declined to 3.00% for the second quarter of 2007 from 3.11 for the second quarter of 2006. The major factor contributing to the decline in margin was the increased cost of consumer certificates of deposit. Maturing certificates are renewing at higher rates. The margin for the second quarter of 2007 improved from the first quarter by 15 basis points due to growth in higher yielding commercial and installment loans. Contributing to net interest income in the second quarter of 2006 was approximately $125 thousand of income, which related to commercial loans that were acquired at a discount in the Alliance acquisition and were paid in full during the quarter.

The provision for loan losses was $365 thousand for the second quarter of 2007 up from both the second quarter of 2006 and the first quarter of 2007, when, for both quarters the provision was $225 thousand. Horizon will continue to evaluate the total allowance based on it’s analysis of all categories of the loan portfolio.

Non-interest income increased $609 thousand or 25.6% from the second quarter of 2006.  The main contributing factors were: (a) an increase in the gain on sale of loans as the company is now selling approximately 90 % of its conventional mortgage production compared to approximately 50% in the prior year. (b) Fiduciary income has increased due to an increase in assets under administration and a fee increase implemented in January of 2007, (c) the increase in cash surrender value of life insurance related to additional insurance added during January of 2007, (d) no securities losses have been recorded during 2007.

Non-interest expense increased $548 thousand or 7.4% from the second quarter of 2006.  The increase in salary and employee benefit expense relates primarily to the wholesale mortgage operation which was begun in June of 2006. Other expense increased primarily due to an increase in miscellaneous losses including the charge off of a held for sale loan of approximately $30 thousand.

There have been no other material changes in the results of operations of Horizon for the three months ending June 30, 2007 and 2006.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations
For the Three and Six Months Periods Ended June 30, 2007


Material Changes in Results of Operations – Six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to the Six months ended June 30, 2006

For the six months ended June 30, 2007, net income totaled $3.860 million or $1.19 per diluted share compared to $3.283 million or $1.02 per diluted share for the same period in 2006.

Net interest income for the six month period ended June 30, 2007, was $15.678 million, approximately the same as the same period of 2006 when net interest income totaled $15.646 million. An increase of $81 million in average earning assets was offset by a decline in net interest margin from 3.15% for the first six months of 2006 to 2.97% for the first six months of 2007. Contributing to net interest income in the first half of 2006 was approximately $330 thousand of income, which related to commercial loans that were acquired at a discount in the Alliance acquisition and were paid in full during the quarter.  Without this income the net interest margin would have been approximately 3.11% for the first half of 2006.

Non-interest income for the first six months of 2007 increased by $1.443 million or 32.7%.  The increase for the six month period are primarily the same as those noted above for the three months period.

Non-interest expense increased $890 thousand or 5.9% from the first six months of 2006.  The increased relates to the same reasons mentioned above for the three months ended June 30, 2007.

There have been no other material changes in the results of operations of Horizon for the six months ending June 30, 2007 and 2006.



ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK


Horizon currently does not engage in any derivative or hedging activity.  Refer to Horizon’s 2006 Form 10-K for analysis of its interest rate sensitivity.  Horizon believes there have been no significant changes in its interest rate sensitivity since it was reported in its 2006 Form 10-K.


ITEM 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation Of Disclosure Controls And Procedures

Based on an evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2007, Horizon’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of Horizon’s disclosure controls (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)).  Based on such evaluation, such officers have concluded that, as of the evaluation date, Horizon’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by Horizon in the reports it files under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms and are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in those reports is accumulated and communicated to management as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.

Changes In Internal Controls

Horizon’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, also have concluded that during the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2007, there have been no changes in Horizon’s internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, Horizon’s internal control over financial reporting.
