Note 3 - Securities

The fair values of Securities Available-for-Sale are as follows:

	June 30,		December 31,
	2007		2006
U.S. Treasury Securities and Obligations of
U.S. Government Corporations and Agencies	$	27,566	$	28,133
Obligations of State and Political Subdivisions		14,132		19,928
Asset-/Mortgage-backed Securities		106,319		123,859
Equity Securities		7,307		7,302
Total	$	155,324	$	179,222

Net unrealized losses on the securities available-for-sale portfolio totaled approximately $1,783 and $90 at June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively.

Securities are written down to fair value when a decline in fair value is not considered temporary. In estimating other-than-temporary losses, management considers the length of time and extent that fair value has been less than cost, the financial condition and near term prospects of the issuer, and the Company’s ability and intent to hold the security for a period sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value. The Company had the intent and ability to hold these securities for the foreseeable future, and the decline in fair value was largely due to changes in market interest rates, therefore, the Company does not consider these securities to be other-than-temporarily impaired.

The total carrying values and fair values of Securities Held-to-Maturity are as follows:

	Carrying		Fair
	Value		Value
June 30, 2007:
Obligations of State and Political Subdivisions	$	5,098	$	5,133

December 31, 2006:
Obligations of State and Political Subdivisions	$	6,135	$	6,192

Note 6 - Segment Information

The Company’s operations include three primary segments: core banking, trust and investment advisory services, and insurance operations. The core banking segment involves attracting deposits from the general public and using such funds to originate consumer, commercial, commercial real estate, and residential mortgage loans, primarily in the Company’s local markets. The core banking segment also involves the sale of residential mortgage loans in the secondary market. The trust and investment advisory services segment involves providing trust, investment advisory, and brokerage services to customers. The insurance segment offers a full range of personal and corporate property and casualty insurance products, primarily in the affiliate banks’ local markets.

The core banking segment is comprised by the Company’s banking subsidiary, German American Bancorp, which operates through six community banking affiliates with 30 retail banking offices. Net interest income from loans and investments funded by deposits and borrowings is the primary revenue for the core-banking segment. The trust and investment advisory services segment’s revenues are comprised primarily of fees generated by German American Financial Advisors & Trust Company (“GAFA”). These fees are derived by providing trust, investment advisory, and brokerage services to its customers. The insurance segment consists of German American Insurance, Inc., which provides a full line of personal and corporate insurance products as agent under six distinctive insurance agency names from six offices; and German American Reinsurance Company, Ltd. (“GARC”), which reinsures credit insurance products sold by the Company’s affiliate banks. Commissions derived from the sale of insurance products are the primary source of revenue for the insurance segment.

The following segment financial information has been derived from the internal financial statements of German American Bancorp, Inc., which are used by management to monitor and manage the financial performance of the Company. The accounting policies of the three segments are the same as those of the Company. The evaluation process for segments does not include holding company income and expense. Holding company amounts are the primary differences between segment amounts and consolidated totals, and are reflected in the column labeled “Other” below, along with amounts to eliminate transactions between segments.

Note 10 - New Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (“FIN 48”), which prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for 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. The Company adopted the provisions of FIN 48 on January 1, 2007. The adoption of FIN 48 had no effect on the Company’s financial statements. The Company has no unrecognized tax benefits and does not anticipate any increase in unrecognized benefits during 2007 relative to any tax positions taken prior to January 1, 2007. Should the accrual of any interest or penalties relative to unrecognized tax benefits be necessary, it is the Company’s policy to record such accruals in its income tax expense accounts; no such accruals existed as of January 1, 2007. The Company and its corporate subsidiaries file a consolidated U.S. federal income tax return, which is subject to examination for all years after 2004. The Company and its corporate subsidiaries doing business in Indiana file a combined Indiana unitary return, which is subject to examination for all years after 2002.

In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement No. 159 - The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (SFAS No. 159). The standard provides companies with an option to report selected financial assets and liabilities at fair value and establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between companies that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. The new standard is effective for the Company on January 1, 2008. The Company has not completed its evaluation of the impact of adoption of SFAS No. 159 but currently does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on its financial statements.

In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. This Statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement establishes a fair value hierarchy about the assumptions used to measure fair value and clarifies assumptions about risk and the effect of a restriction on the sale or use of an asset. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company has not completed its evaluation of the impact of the adoption of this standard.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

GERMAN AMERICAN BANCORP, INC.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

German American Bancorp, Inc. is a financial services holding company based in Jasper, Indiana. The Company’s Common Stock is traded on NASDAQ’s Global Select Market, under the symbol GABC. The principal subsidiary of German American Bancorp, Inc. is its banking subsidiary, German American Bancorp, which operates through six community banking affiliates with 30 retail banking offices in the ten contiguous Southern Indiana counties of Daviess, Dubois, Gibson, Knox, Lawrence, Martin, Monroe, Perry, Pike, and Spencer. German American Bancorp owns a trust, brokerage, and financial planning subsidiary, which operates from its banking offices, and a full line property and casualty insurance agency with six insurance agency offices throughout its market area.

Throughout this Management’s Discussion and Analysis, as elsewhere in this report, when we use the term “Company”, we will usually be referring to the business and affairs (financial and otherwise) of the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates as a whole. Occasionally, we will refer to the term “parent company” or “holding company” when we mean to refer to only German American Bancorp, Inc.

This section presents an analysis of the consolidated financial condition of the Company as of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006 and the consolidated results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and other financial data presented elsewhere herein and with the financial statements and other financial data, as well as the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, included in the Company’s December 31, 2006 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

MANAGEMENT OVERVIEW

This updated discussion should be read in conjunction with the Management Overview that was included in our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in the Company’s December 31, 2006 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

For the quarter ended June 30, 2007 net income totaled $2,643,000, or $0.24 per share, a $155,000 or 6% increase over the same period 2006 earnings of $2,488,000, or $0.23 per share. The comparison of the Company’s second quarter 2007 results with that of the prior year’s was positively affected by a $596,000, or 7%, increase in net interest income and a $332,000, or 9%, increase in non-interest income. The increase in net interest income was driven by a 20% increase in the Company’s loan portfolio during the twelve month period ended June 30, 2007. On a linked quarter basis (second quarter versus first quarter 2007), the end of period loan portfolio balances increased at a similar annualized 20% rate during the second quarter of 2007.

The increase in the level of the Company’s non-interest income was derived from a number of sources, including a 10% increase in deposit service charges, a 17% increase in trust and investment product fees and a 39% increase in insurance revenues. Insurance revenue for the second quarter of 2007 included the revenue of Keach and Grove Insurance, Inc., which was acquired during the fourth quarter of 2006.

During the second quarter 2007, the Company’s non-interest expenses increased by $189,000 or 2%, in spite of the inclusion of the operating expenses of both the Keach & Grove Insurance, Inc. and the new Bloomington banking office, which opened in February of this year. Approximately $534,000 of the second quarter 2007 operating expenses, representing more than the quarter-to-quarter increase in the Company’s non-interest expenses, were attributable to these two newest components of the Company’s operations. Absent the operating expenses of these new operations, the Company’s total non-interest expense would have declined by approximately $345,000, or 4%, during the second quarter of 2007 as compared to the same period in 2006.

Net income declined $929,000 or 18% to $4,122,000 or $0.37 per share for the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to $5,051,000 or $0.46 per share for the first half of 2006. The comparison of the Company’s first half of 2007 results with that of the prior year’s same period earnings was significantly affected by the costs associated with the resolution of a non-performing hotel facilities credit. Late in the first quarter, the Company gained control of the facilities which were subsequently sold on April 20, 2007. These credit-related costs included increased provision for loan losses of $1.3 million in direct charges related to the valuation of the properties, an additional $160,000 in indirect provision charges due to the impact on the Company’s historical loss ratios and resulting reserve levels, and collection costs of $110,000. In total, the after-tax cost during the first quarter of 2007 associated with the resolution of this matter was approximately $948,000. The resolution of this problem credit has enhanced the Company’s ability to return non-performing loans and assets to more normalized historical levels.

The earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2007 were positively impacted by a $1,095,000 or 6% increase in net interest income as compared to the Company’s level of net interest income in the same period last year. This net interest income increase was driven by an 18% increase in the average loans outstanding during the six month period ending on June 30, 2007, compared with the same period of the prior year. Also positively impacting the first six months of 2007 compared with 2006 was an increase of $446,000 or 6% in non-interest income. As was the case during the second quarter as previously discussed, the primary contributors to this increase were higher levels of trust and investment product fees, deposit service charges and insurance revenues.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

The financial condition and results of operations for German American Bancorp, Inc. presented in the Consolidated Financial Statements, accompanying Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements, and selected financial data appearing elsewhere within this report, are, to a large degree, dependent upon the Company’s accounting policies. The selection of and application of these policies involve estimates, judgments and uncertainties that are subject to change. The critical accounting policies and estimates that the Company has determined to be the most susceptible to change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses, the valuation of securities available for sale, and the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The Company maintains an allowance for loan losses to cover probable incurred credit losses at the balance sheet date. Loan losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. Allocations of the allowance may be made for specific loans, but the entire allowance is available for any loan that, in management’s judgment, should be charged-off. A provision for loan losses is charged to operations based on management's periodic evaluation of the necessary allowance balance. Evaluations are conducted at least quarterly and more often if deemed necessary. The ultimate recovery of all loans is susceptible to future market factors beyond the Company's control.

The Company has an established process to determine the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses. The determination of the allowance is inherently subjective, as it requires significant estimates, including the amounts and timing of expected future cash flows on impaired loans, estimated losses on other classified loans and pools of homogeneous loans, and consideration of past loan loss experience, the nature and volume of the portfolio, information about specific borrower situations and estimated collateral values, economic conditions, and other factors, all of which may be susceptible to significant change. The allowance consists of two components of allocations, specific and general. These two components represent the total allowance for loan losses deemed adequate to cover losses inherent in the loan portfolio.

Commercial and agricultural loans are subject to a standardized grading process administered by an internal loan review function. The need for specific reserves is considered for credits when graded substandard or special mention, or when: (a) the customer’s cash flow or net worth appears insufficient to repay the loan; (b) the loan has been criticized in a regulatory examination; (c) the loan is on non-accrual; or, (d) other reasons where the ultimate collectibility of the loan is in question, or the loan characteristics require special monitoring. Specific allowances are established in cases where management has identified significant conditions or circumstances related to an individual credit that we believe indicates the loan is impaired. Specific allocations on impaired loans are determined by comparing the loan balance to the present value of expected cash flows or expected collateral proceeds. Allocations are also applied to categories of loans not considered individually impaired but for which the rate of loss is expected to be greater than historical averages, including those graded substandard or special mention and non-performing consumer or residential real estate loans. Such allocations are based on past loss experience and information about specific borrower situations and estimated collateral values.

General allocations are made for other pools of loans, including non-classified loans, homogeneous portfolios of consumer and residential real estate loans, and loans within certain industry categories believed to present unique risk of loss. General allocations of the allowance are primarily made based on a five-year historical average for loan losses for these portfolios, judgmentally adjusted for economic factors and portfolio trends.

Due to the imprecise nature of estimating the allowance for loan losses, the Company’s allowance for loan losses includes a minor unallocated component. The unallocated component of the allowance for loan losses incorporates the Company’s judgmental determination of inherent losses that may not be fully reflected in other allocations, including factors such as economic uncertainties, lending staff quality, industry trends impacting specific portfolio segments, and broad portfolio quality trends. Therefore, the ratio of allocated to unallocated components within the total allowance may fluctuate from period to period.

Securities Valuation

Securities available-for-sale are carried at fair value, with unrealized holding gains and losses reported separately in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax. The Company obtains market values from a third party on a monthly basis in order to adjust the securities to fair value. Additionally, all securities are required to be written down to fair value when a decline in fair value is other than temporary; therefore, future changes in the fair value of securities could have a significant impact on the Company’s operating results. In determining whether a market value decline is other than temporary, management considers the reason for the decline, the extent of the decline and the duration of the decline. As of June 30, 2007, gross unrealized losses on the securities available-for-sale portfolio totaled approximately $3,083,000.

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense involves estimates related to the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets and loss contingencies related to exposure from tax examinations.

A valuation allowance reduces deferred tax assets to the amount management believes is more likely than not to be realized. In evaluating the realization of deferred tax assets, management considers the likelihood that sufficient taxable income of appropriate character will be generated within carryback and carryforward periods, including consideration of available tax planning strategies. As of December 31, 2006, the Company had a deferred tax asset of $1.9 million representing various tax credit carryforwards. Based on the long carryforward periods available, management has assessed it more likely than not that these credits will be realized and no valuation allowance has been established on this asset.

Loss contingencies, including assessments arising from tax examinations and tax strategies, are recorded as liabilities when the likelihood of loss is probable and an amount or range of loss can be reasonably estimated. In considering the likelihood of loss, management considers the nature of the contingency, the progress of any examination or related protest or appeal, the views of legal counsel and other advisors, experience of the Company or other enterprises in similar matters, if any, and management’s intended response to any assessment.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net Income:

Net income increased $155,000 or 6% to $2,643,000 or $0.24 per share for the quarter ended June 30, 2007 compared to $2,488,000 or $0.23 per share for the second quarter of 2006. The increase in net income during the second quarter 2007 compared with 2006 was primarily attributable to higher levels of net interest income and non-interest income partially offset by a higher provision for loan losses and non-interest expenses.

Net income declined $929,000 or 18% to $4,122,000 or $0.37 per share for the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to $5,051,000 or $0.46 per share for the six months ended June 30, 2006. The decline in earnings during the first half of 2007 was significantly affected by the cost associated with the resolution of a non-performing loan through increased provision for loan losses. Partially mitigating these factors was increased net interest income and increased non-interest income.

Net Interest Income:

Net interest income is the Company’s single largest source of earnings, and represents the difference between interest and fees realized on earning assets, less interest paid on deposits and borrowed funds. The following table summarizes the Company’s net interest income (on a tax-equivalent basis, at an effective tax rate of 34%) for each of the periods presented herein (dollars in thousands):

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Change from Prior Period
	2007		2006		Amount		Percent
Interest Income (T/E)	$	18,111	$	15,666	$	2,445		15.6	%
Interest Expense		8,464		6,479		1,985		30.6	%
Net Interest Income (T/E)	$	9,647	$	9,187	$	460		5.0	%

Net interest income increased $596,000 or 7% (an increase of $460,000 or 5% on a tax-equivalent basis) for the quarter ended June 30, 2007 compared with the same quarter of 2006. The increase in net interest income was primarily attributable to an increased level of average earnings assets, and specifically a higher level of average loans outstanding, in the quarter ended June 30, 2007 compared with 2006. Average earning assets totaled approximately $1.021 billion for the quarter ended June 30, 2007 compared with $923.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2006. Average loans outstanding totaled approximately $834.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2007 compared with $693.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2006.

The net interest margin represents tax-equivalent net interest income expressed as a percentage of average earning assets. For the second quarter of 2007, the net interest margin declined to 3.78% compared to 3.99% for the same period of 2006. The Company’s yield on earning assets totaled 7.11% compared with a cost of funds (expressed as a percentage of average earning assets) of 3.33% resulting in the net interest margin of 3.78% for the three months ended June 30, 2007. The Company’s yield on earning assets was 6.80% compared with a cost of funds of 2.81% netting to a net interest margin of 3.99% for the three months ended June 30, 2006.

	Six Months Ended June 30,				Change from Prior Period
	2007		2006		Amount		Percent
Interest Income (T/E)	$	35,616	$	30,697	$	4,919		16.0	%
Interest Expense		16,418		12,351		4,067		32.9	%
Net Interest Income (T/E)	$	19,198	$	18,346	$	852		4.6	%

Net interest income increased $1,095,000 or 6% (an increase of $852,000 or 5% on a tax-equivalent basis) for the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared with the same period of 2006. The increase in net interest income was primarily attributable to an increased level of average earning assets due to a higher level of average loans outstanding in the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared with 2006. Average earning assets totaled approximately $1.010 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared with $920.0 million for the six months June 30, 2006. Average loans outstanding totaled approximately $816.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared with $693.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006.

For the first half of 2007, the net interest margin declined to 3.83% compared to 4.01% for the same period of 2006. The Company’s yield on earning assets totaled 7.10% compared with a cost of funds (expressed as a percentage of average earning assets) of 3.27% for the six months ended June 30, 2007. The Company’s yield on earning assets was 6.71% compared with a cost of funds of 2.70% for the six months ended June 30, 2006.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 compared with the same periods of 2006, the Company has been able to expand its net interest income, but has experienced a contraction in the net interest margin. The Company’s base of core deposits has not grown by the same magnitude as the significant loan growth during 2006 and 2007. Therefore, in addition to cash flows derived from the investment securities portfolio, the funding of much of the loan growth has largely been through borrowings and other higher costing deposits. The utilization of these funding sources combined with a prolonged period of a relatively flat interest rate yield curve has caused the Company’s cost of funds to rise more quickly than the yield on earning assets resulting in a lower net interest margin. However, as the net interest margin has contracted the growth of the loan portfolio has allowed for the continued increase in net interest income.

Provision for Loan Losses:

The Company provides for loan losses through regular provisions to the allowance for loan losses. The provision is affected by net charge-offs on loans and changes in specific and general allocations of the allowance. Provision for loan losses totaled $375,000 during the quarter ended June 30, 2007 compared with $54,000 in the second quarter of 2006. Provision for loan losses totaled $2,303,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared with $344,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2006.

The increased level of provision for loan losses during the six months ended June 30, 2007 was largely attributable to a write-down of a single non-performing credit facility secured by two hotel properties at the time the properties were acquired by deed in lieu of foreclosure and moved into other real estate owned during the first quarter of 2007. During the first quarter of 2007, the write-down and additional provision for loan loss on this credit totaled $1,300,000 with an additional $160,000 in indirect provision charges recognized due to the impact of this write-down on the Company’s historical loss ratios and resulting required reserve levels.

Another contributing factor to the elevated levels of provision during the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 compared with the same periods of 2006 was the finalization of settlement of a large non-performing credit in the second quarter of 2006. The Company recognized a charge-off of approximately $393,000 on this individual credit facility. The specific allocation as of year end 2005 was for considerably more than the level of charge-off allowing the Company to recover the balance of the specific allocation assigned to the credit.

For further discussion of non-performing assets refer to “FINANCIAL CONDITION - Non-Performing Assets.”

Net charge-offs totaled $219,000 or 0.10% of average loans outstanding during the three months ended June 30, 2007 compared with $757,000 or 0.44% of average loans outstanding during the same period of 2006. Net charge-offs totaled $1,656,000 or 0.41% of average loans outstanding during the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared with $1,074,000 or 0.31% of average loans outstanding during the same period of 2006.

The provisions for loan losses made during the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2007 were made at a level deemed necessary by management to absorb estimated, probable incurred losses in the loan portfolio. A detailed evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses is completed quarterly by management, the results of which are used to determine provisions for loan losses. Management estimates the allowance balance required using past loan loss experience, the nature and volume of the portfolio, information about specific borrower situations and estimated collateral values, economic conditions, and other factors.

Non-interest Income:

Non-interest income increased $332,000 or 9% for the three month period ended June 30, 2007 as compared to the same period of 2006. Non-interest income increased $446,000 or 6% for the six month period ended June 30, 2007 as compared to the same period of 2006. The increase in the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 was primarily attributable to increased Trust and Investment Product Fees, increased Service Charges on Deposit Accounts and increased Insurance Revenues partially offset by a decline in mortgage servicing related revenue due to the sale of the Company’s mortgage servicing portfolio during the second quarter of 2006.

Trust and Investment Product Fees increased $95,000 or 17% and $215,000 or 19% during the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2007 as compared to 2006. These increases were driven by increased levels of brokerage commission revenue. Service Charges on Deposits increased $104,000 or 10% and $157,000 or 8% during the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 as compared to the same periods of 2006.

For the three month period ended June 30, 2007, Insurance Revenues increased $432,000 or 39% as compared to 2006. The increase in Insurance Revenues during the second quarter 2007 compared with 2006 were attributable primarily to increased contingency commission income of $109,000, commission income from Keach and Grove Insurance, Inc. of $241,000 (Keach and Grove was acquired on October 1, 2006), and a $112,000 increase from the Company’s existing insurance agencies. For the six month period ended June 30, 2007, Insurance Revenues increased $515,000 or 20% as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2006. The increase in Insurance Revenues during the first half of 2007 compared with 2006 was largely attributable to commission income from Keach and Grove of $538,000 and increased existing agency commission income of $145,000 partially offset by a decline in contingency commission income of $132,000.

Other Operating Income decreased by $43,000 or 6% and $150,000 or 10% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 as compared with the same periods of 2006. The declines were primarily the result of the sale of the Company’s mortgage servicing portfolio during the second quarter of 2006. As such, the Company recognized no revenues from the servicing of sold residential mortgage loans during 2007 compared with revenues of $53,000 and $171,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006. Net Gains on the Sales of Loans and Related Assets declined by $256,000 or 56% and $291,000 or 44% during the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2007 compared with the same periods of 2006. The declines were also the direct result of the sale of the Company’s mortgage servicing portfolio during 2006. The Company recognized a gain on the sale of the mortgage servicing rights of $219,000 during the second quarter of 2006.

Non-interest Expense:

Non-interest Expense increased $189,000 or 2% and $818,000 or 5% during the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to the same periods of 2006. The increase was largely attributable to the acquisition of Keach and Grove Insurance, Inc. and the opening of a new branch banking facility in Bloomington, Indiana. Non-interest expenses at Keach and Grove Insurance, Inc. and the new branch facility totaled approximately $534,000 and $1,042,000 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2007. Absent these expenses, Non-interest Expense would have declined $345,000 or 4% and $224,000 or 1% during the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2007.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, Salaries and Employee Benefits Expense increased $187,000 or 3% and $506,000 or 5% as compared to the same periods of 2006. Occupancy Expense and Furniture and Equipment Expense increased by $146,000 and $278,000, both 12% increases, during the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2007 compared with the same periods in the prior year. This increase was primarily attributable to the previously discussed opening of the branch bank facility in Bloomington and the insurance agency acquisition.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, Data Processing Fees declined $70,000 or 17% and $119,000 or 15% as compared to the same periods of 2006. These declines were the result of a core processing computer conversion which occurred during the third quarter of 2006. Professional Fees declined $114,000 or 25% and $141,000 or 16% during the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 compared with the same periods of 2006. These declines were primarily attributable to elevated professional fees associated with the aforementioned core processing computer conversion.

Other Operating Expenses increased $313,000 or 12% during the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared with the six months ended June 30, 2006. Included in the higher level of costs was increased collection costs associated primarily with the previously discussed non-performing hotel loans that were acquired by deed-in-lieu of foreclosure during the first quarter of 2007, increased intangible amortization resulting from the Keach and Grove Insurance, Inc. acquisition, and increased losses associated with fraudulent ATM and debit card transactions.

Income Taxes:

The Company’s effective income tax rate approximated 31.8% during the three months ended June 30, 2007 compared with 28.1% during the same period of 2006. The higher effective tax rate during the second quarter 2007 compared with 2006 resulted from a higher level of before tax net income combined with a lower level of tax-exempt investment income. The Company’s effective income tax rate approximated 28.9% during the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared with 28.2% during the same period of 2006. The effective tax rate in both 2007 and 2006 was lower than the blended statutory rate of 39.6% resulting primarily from the Company’s tax-exempt investment income on securities and loans, income tax credits generated from investments in affordable housing projects, and income generated by subsidiaries domiciled in a state with no state or local income tax.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Total assets at June 30, 2007 increased $28.5 million to $1.122 billion compared with $1.093 billion in total assets at December 31, 2006. Securities available-for-sale and held-to-maturity decreased $25.0 million to $160.4 million at June 30, 2007 compared with $185.4 million at year-end 2006. The cash flow from the decline in securities was primarily used to fund loan portfolio growth. Loans, net of unearned income, increased $53.9 million to $850.2 million at June 30, 2007 compared to $796.3 million at December 31, 2006. Commercial and industrial loans increased $45.8 million or 11%, agricultural based loans increased $6.3 million or 4%, consumer loans decreased $1.8 million or 1% and residential mortgage loans increased $4.4 million or 4% during the six months ended June 30, 2007.

Total Deposits at June 30, 2007 increased $44.5 million to $912.1 million compared with $867.6 million in total deposits at December 31, 2006. Demand, savings, and money market accounts decreased $5.0 million while time deposits increased $49.5 million. FHLB Advances and Other Borrowings decreased $16.1 million to $103.8 million at June 30, 2007 compared with $119.9 million at December 31, 2006.

Non-performing Assets:

The following is an analysis of the Company’s non-performing assets at June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006 (dollars in thousands):

	June 30,			December 31,
	2007			2006
Non-accrual Loans	$	5,429		$	9,652
Past Due Loans (90 days or more)		7			—
Restructured Loans		—			—
Total Non-performing Loans		5,436			9,652
Other Real Estate		1,152			845
Total Non-performing Assets	$	6,588		$	10,497

Allowance for Loan Loss to Non-performing Loans		143.05	%		73.86	%
Non-performing Loans to Total Loans		0.64	%		1.21	%

The Company’s level of overall non-performing assets declined by approximately $3.9 million and non-performing loans declined by approximately $4.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2007. These changes were primarily related to one credit facility which is discussed in detail below.

At December 31, 2006, a single credit facility, which was extended to a borrower that owned and operated two hotel facilities, was largely responsible for the elevated level of non-performing loans. This facility included extensions of credit in the approximate amount of $3.5 million (after a partial charge-off during 2006) that were secured by a first priority lien on the hotel properties.

In late March, 2007, the Company acquired deeds in lieu of foreclosure of these two hotel properties and placed the hotels under control of an independent management company pending their sale. On April 16, 2007, the Company agreed to sell the two hotels, subject to conventional financing by the Company, to an unaffiliated purchaser for a sales price of approximately $2.2 million, net of the costs of sale. The sale of the properties closed on April 20, 2007.

The net effect of these activities was to decrease the level of the Company’s non-performing assets at June 30, 2007, by the entire $3.5 million year-end carrying value of the credit secured by the hotel facilities. During the first quarter of 2007, the Company charged the difference of $1.3 million against its allowance for loan losses and recorded a corresponding expense to provision for loan losses.

In connection with the Company’s agreement with its borrower under which the deeds to the hotels were acquired in lieu of foreclosure, one of the principals of the borrower executed and delivered to the Company’s subsidiary bank a ten-year monthly installment personal promissory note in the principal amount of $1.1 million. Due to substantial uncertainty about the personal financial ability of the obligor under the note to pay it in accordance with its terms, the Company has not recognized any value for this personal note in its financial statements. If, and to the extent that, this obligor continues to pay installments under the note in accordance with its terms, or the note is otherwise sold or liquidated for value by the Company, the Company could recover some of this charge-off in future periods. Through June 30, 2007, all payments have been made in accordance with the terms of the note.

The largest remaining credit facility included in non-performing assets is an approximately $841,000 loan (after a partial charge-off during 2006) to a manufacturing entity which has ceased operations. During the third quarter of 2005, the real estate and equipment of the manufacturing entity were sold at auction to an unrelated third party. The closing of this auction sale has been delayed on a number of instances as various covenants and conditions included in the sales agreement have not been fully performed or satisfied. Based on current information available, the Company expects that this sale will be completed by the end of 2007. The indebtedness owed the Company on this credit is secured by a first priority lien on substantially all of the borrower’s assets, including those sold at auction.

Capital Resources:

Federal banking regulations provide guidelines for determining the capital adequacy of bank holding companies and banks. These guidelines provide for a more narrow definition of core capital and assign a measure of risk to the various categories of assets. The Company is required to maintain minimum levels of capital in proportion to total risk-weighted assets and off-balance sheet exposures such as loan commitments and standby letters of credit.

Tier 1, or core capital, consists of shareholders’ equity less goodwill, core deposit intangibles, other identifiable intangibles and certain deferred tax assets defined by bank regulations. Tier 2 capital currently consists of the amount of the allowance for loan losses which does not exceed a defined maximum allowance limit of 1.25 percent of gross risk adjusted assets and subordinated debenture obligations. Total capital is the sum of Tier 1 and Tier 2 capital.

The minimum requirements under these standards are generally at least a 4.0 percent leverage ratio, which is Tier 1 capital divided by defined “total assets”; 4.0 percent Tier 1 capital to risk-adjusted assets; and, an 8.0 percent total capital to risk-adjusted assets ratios. Under these guidelines, the Company, on a consolidated basis, and its subsidiary bank, have capital ratios that exceed the regulatory minimums.

The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 (FDICIA) requires federal regulatory agencies to define capital tiers. These are: well-capitalized, adequately-capitalized, under-capitalized, significantly under-capitalized, and critically under-capitalized. Under these regulations, a “well-capitalized” entity must achieve a Tier 1 Risk-based capital ratio of at least 6.0 percent; a total capital ratio of at least 10.0 percent; and, a leverage ratio of at least 5.0 percent, and not be under a capital directive. The Company’s subsidiary bank was categorized as well-capitalized as of June 30, 2007.

At June 30, 2007, management was not under such a capital directive, nor was it aware of any current recommendations by banking regulatory authorities which, if they were to be implemented, would have or are reasonably likely to have, a material effect on the Company’s liquidity, capital resources or operations.

The table below presents the Company’s consolidated capital ratios under regulatory guidelines:

				To be Well Capitalized Under Prompt
	Minimum for			Corrective
	Capital			Action			At			At
	Adequacy			Provisions			June 30,			December 31,
	Purposes			(FDICIA)			2007			2006

Leverage Ratio		4.00	%		5.00	%		7.24	%		7.41	%
Tier 1 Capital to Risk-adjusted Assets		4.00	%		6.00	%		8.30	%		8.69	%
Total Capital to Risk-adjusted Assets		8.00	%		10.00	%		10.20	%		10.66	%

As of June 30, 2007, shareholders’ equity increased by $103,000 to $92.5 million compared with $92.4 million at year-end 2006. Shareholders’ equity represented 8.2% of total assets at June 30, 2007 compared with 8.4% at December 31, 2006. Shareholders’ equity included $14.1 million of goodwill and other intangible assets at June 30, 2007, compared to $14.6 million of goodwill and other intangible assets at December 31, 2006.

Liquidity:

The Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows details the elements of changes in the Company’s consolidated cash and cash equivalents. Total cash and cash equivalents remained virtually unchanged during the six months ended June 30, 2007 ending at $29.7 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2007, cash flows from operating activities provided $8.7 million of available cash, which included net income of $4.1 million. Investing activities resulted in net cash outflows of $33.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2007 due primarily to cash outflows associated with loan portfolio growth previously discussed. Financing activities resulted in net cash inflows for the period ended June 30, 2007 of $24.6 million due primarily to growth of deposits of $44.5 million offset partially by a net cash outflow of $16.8 million in reduced borrowed funds and a net cash outflow of $3.1 million in dividends paid to shareholders.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND ASSOCIATED RISKS

The Company from time to time in its oral and written communications makes statements relating to its expectations regarding the future. These types of statements are considered “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The Company may include forward-looking statements in filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), such as this Form 10-Q, in other written materials, and in oral statements made by senior management to analysts, investors, representatives of the media, and others. Such forward looking statements can include statements about the Company’s net interest income or net interest margin; adequacy of allowance for loan losses, levels of provisions for loan losses, and the quality of the Company’s loans and other assets; simulations of changes in interest rates; expected results from mergers with or acquisitions of other businesses; litigation results; tax estimates and recognition; dividend policy; parent company cash resources and cash requirements, and parent company capital resources; estimated cost savings, plans and objectives for future operations; and expectations about the Company’s financial and business performance and other business matters as well as economic and market conditions and trends. They often can be identified by the use of words like “expect,” “may,” “will,” “would,” “could,” “should,” “intend,” “project,” “estimate,” “believe” or “anticipate,” or similar expressions.

It is intended that these forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which the forward-looking statement is made. Readers are cautioned that, by their nature, forward-looking statements are based on assumptions and are subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors. Actual results may differ materially from the expectations of the Company that are expressed or implied by any forward-looking statement.

Forward-looking statements included in this Report include but are not limited to the statement in the Management Overview section of this Item 2 that resolution of a certain problem credit has, in management’s view, enhanced the Company’s ability to return non-performing loans and assets to more normalized historical levels. The discussions elsewhere in this Item 2, list some of the factors that could cause the Company’s actual results or experience to vary materially from those expressed or implied by any forward-looking statements, including the statement concerning non-performing loan and asset levels. Other risks, uncertainties, and factors that could cause the Company’s actual results or experiences to vary materially from those expressed or implied by any forward-looking statement include the unknown future direction of interest rates and the timing and magnitude of any changes in interest rates; effects of changes in competitive conditions; acquisitions of other businesses by the Company and costs of integrations of such acquired businesses, and the potential risk that customer relationships of such acquired businesses may be lost; the introduction, withdrawal, success and timing of business initiatives and strategies; changes in customer borrowing, repayment, investment and deposit practices; changes in fiscal, monetary and tax policies; changes in financial and capital markets; changes in general economic conditions, either nationally or locally, resulting in, among other things, credit quality deterioration; the risk of unfavorable developments in the closing of the proposed sale of the manufacturing facility (as discussed above under “FINANCIAL CONDITION - Non-Performing Assets”); the impact, extent and timing of technological changes; capital management activities; actions of the Federal Reserve Board and legislative and regulatory actions and reforms; changes in accounting principles and interpretations; the inherent uncertainties involved in litigation and regulatory proceedings which could result in the Company’s incurring loss or damage regardless of the merits of the Company’s claims or defenses; and the continued availability of earnings and excess capital sufficient for the lawful and prudent declaration and payment of cash dividends by the Company and by its subsidiaries. Investors should consider these risks, uncertainties, and other factors, in addition to those mentioned by the Company in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2006, and other SEC filings from time to time, when considering any forward-looking statement.

In addition, the Company’s statements in the Management Overview section of this Item 2 include an annualization of its loan growth rate based on loan growth within the second quarter of 2007. The Company does not, by doing so, intend to suggest that the actual loan growth rate for 2007 or for any other twelve-month period that includes the second quarter of 2007, will necessarily prove to be equal to or greater than the loan growth figure presented on an annualized basis; loan growth rates for any twelve-month period may be materially less than annualized figures, due to the above or other factors.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The Company’s exposure to market risk is reviewed on a regular basis by the Asset/Liability Committee and Boards of Directors of the parent company and its subsidiary bank. Primary market risks which impact the Company’s operations are liquidity risk and interest rate risk.

The liquidity of the parent company is dependent upon the receipt of dividends from its subsidiary bank, which is subject to certain regulatory limitations. The bank’s source of funding is predominately core deposits, maturities of securities, repayments of loan principal and interest, federal funds purchased, securities sold under agreements to repurchase and borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank.

The Company monitors interest rate risk by the use of computer simulation modeling to estimate the potential impact on its net interest income under various interest rate scenarios, and by estimating its static interest rate sensitivity position. Another method by which the Company’s interest rate risk position can be estimated is by computing estimated changes in its net portfolio value (“NPV”). This method estimates interest rate risk exposure from movements in interest rates by using interest rate sensitivity analysis to determine the change in the NPV of discounted cash flows from assets and liabilities.

NPV represents the market value of portfolio equity and is equal to the estimated market value of assets minus the estimated market value of liabilities. Computations are based on a number of assumptions, including the relative levels of market interest rates and prepayments in mortgage loans and certain types of investments. These computations do not contemplate any actions management may undertake in response to changes in interest rates, and should not be relied upon as indicative of actual results. In addition, certain shortcomings are inherent in the method of computing NPV. Should interest rates remain or decrease below current levels, the proportion of adjustable rate loans could decrease in future periods due to refinancing activity. In the event of an interest rate change, prepayment levels would likely be different from those assumed in the table. Lastly, the ability of many borrowers to repay their adjustable rate debt may decline during a rising interest rate environment.

The table below provides an assessment of the risk to NPV in the event of a sudden and sustained 2% increase and decrease in prevailing interest rates (dollars in thousands).

Interest Rate Sensitivity as of June 30, 2007

Changes	Net Portfolio Value					Net Portfolio Value as a % of Present Value of Assets
In rates	$ Amount		% Change			NPV Ratio			Change

+2%	$	132,123		(8.60	)%		11.97	%		(77)	b.p.
Base		144,557		—			12.74			—
-2%		140,215		(3.00	)%		12.12			(62)	b.p.

This Item 3 includes forward-looking statements. See “Forward-looking Statements” included in Part I, Item 2 of this Report for a discussion of certain factors that could cause the Company’s actual exposure to market risk to vary materially from that expressed or implied above. These factors include possible changes in economic conditions; interest rate fluctuations, competitive product and pricing pressures within the Company’s markets; and equity and fixed income market fluctuations. Actual experience may also vary materially to the extent that the Company’s assumptions described above prove to be inaccurate.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

As of June 30, 2007, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, the Company's principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were as of that date effective in timely alerting them to material information required to be included in the Company's periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of systems of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective systems of disclosure controls and procedures can provide only reasonable assurances of achieving their control objectives.

There was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company’s second fiscal quarter of 2007 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
