INDIANAPOLIS, July 27, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Today the Board of Directors of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Indianapolis ("FHLBI" or "Bank") declared dividends on Class B-1 and Class B-2 capital stock at annualized rates of 4.25% and 3.40%, respectively. The dividends will be paid in cash on July 28, 2017.
Financial Results Summary
FHLBI derives its net income primarily through interest income earned on advances to and mortgage loans purchased from its Michigan and Indiana member financial institutions, as well as on long- and short-term investments. The Bank's net interest income is primarily determined by the spread between the interest earned on assets and the interest cost of consolidated obligations.
FHLBI's net income for the second quarter of 2017 was $38 million, an increase of $15 million compared to the same quarter in the prior year, primarily due to higher net interest income, partially offset by net losses on derivatives and hedging activities. Net interest income after provision for credit losses was $65 million, an increase of $19 million compared to the same quarter in the prior year as a result of asset growth and higher spreads.
FHLBI's net income for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was $69 million, an increase of $20 million compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to higher net interest income, partially offset by net losses on derivatives and hedging activities. Net interest income after provision for credit losses was $124 million, an increase of $29 million compared to the same period in the prior year as a result of asset growth and higher spreads.
For the six months ended June 30, 2017, the Bank allocated $8 million to its Affordable Housing Program ("AHP"), which provides grant funding to support housing for low- and moderate-income families in Michigan and Indiana. Full year 2017 AHP allocations will be available for FHLBI members in 2018 to help address their communities' affordable housing needs, including construction, rehabilitation, accessibility improvements and homebuyer down-payment assistance.
Balance Sheet Highlights
Total assets at June 30, 2017 were $60.7 billion, an increase of $6.8 billion, or 13%, from December 31, 2016, primarily driven by an increase in advances outstanding.
Advances
Advances are secured loans that FHLBI provides to its member institutions. Advances outstanding at June 30, 2017 totaled $32.3 billion, a net increase of $4.2 billion, or 15%, from December 31, 2016. Advances to depository members - comprising commercial banks, savings institutions and credit unions - increased by 33%. Advances to insurance company members decreased by 1%, which includes a 9% decline in advances to captive insurance companies. Depository institutions accounted for 55% of the Bank's advance portfolio at June 30, 2017, while insurance companies accounted for the remaining 45%.
Mortgage Loans Held for Portfolio
FHLBI purchases mortgage loans from its members to support its housing mission, provide an additional source of liquidity to its members, and diversify its investments. FHLBI's mortgage loan purchases totaled $1.0 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2017. Mortgage loans held for portfolio at June 30, 2017 totaled $9.9 billion, a net increase of $393 million, or 4%, from December 31, 2016.
Consolidated Obligations
The primary source of funds for FHLBI, and for the other Federal Home Loan Banks ("FHLBanks"), is the sale of FHLBanks' consolidated obligations in the capital markets.
FHLBI's consolidated obligations outstanding at June 30, 2017 totaled $56.3 billion, a net increase of $6.0 billion, or 12%, from December 31, 2016. The increase in consolidated obligations supported the Bank's growth in assets.
FHLBI is the primary obligor for the payment of the principal and interest on these consolidated obligations; additionally, it is jointly and severally liable with each of the other FHLBanks for all of the FHLBanks' consolidated obligations outstanding.
Capital
FHLBI is a cooperative whose member financial institutions and former members own all of its capital stock as a condition of membership and to support outstanding advances. Total capital at June 30, 2017 was $2.7 billion, a net increase of $287 million from December 31, 2016, primarily as a result of additional capital stock issued to members, other comprehensive income and the growth of retained earnings.
Total regulatory capital consists of capital stock, mandatorily redeemable capital stock and retained earnings. The Bank's regulatory capital-to-assets ratio at June 30, 2017 was 4.6%, which exceeds all applicable regulatory capital requirements.
