The quarterly loss was mainly caused by: * Loan loss provisions of $6.55 million. * The write-down in value of a foreclosed property of $950,000. * An industry-wide imposed special assessment from the FDIC of $315,000. Mike Cahill, President and CEO of Tower Financial Corporation commented, "While disappointing, the results posted for the second quarter were well within the scenarios utilized in our own capital stress test analysis. We continue to have confidence that we will remain 'well-capitalized' and continue the execution of our business plan. Additionally, we still maintain our position of being able to passionately serve our existing clients and communities along with adding new clientele who are being displaced by national banks." As previously announced, the Company conducted its own internal stress test analysis during the first quarter of 2009. Based on the results of these stress tests, the application for participation in the Capital Purchase Program (CPP) was withdrawn, which is part of the federal government's Troubled Assets Relief Program (TARP). "As our customers are impacted by the economy, so is Tower. A small number of our clients represent over 90% of our quarterly loan loss provision, with a significant portion of this loss being tied to Northeast Indiana land development projects that continue to be adversely affected by the local economy," stated Cahill. "In the past 10 years Tower has invested in the Fort Wayne business community just as the community has invested in Tower. We have worked side-by-side with our clients to grow and will continue that business model through these tough economic times." Second quarter highlights include: * The Company's regulatory capital ratios continue to remain above the "well-capitalized" levels, and the second quarter results were well within the stress testing of existing capital performed by the Company earlier this year. * Allowance for Loan Losses increased to 2.53 percent of total loans, compared to 2.06 percent at March 31, 2009, and 1.90 percent at December 31, 2008. This increase was primarily the result of reserve building in the second quarter of 2009, which includes a $6.55 million of loan loss provision, in addition to the $960,000 taken during the first quarter of 2009. * Trust and brokerage assets under management grew to $663.4 million as of June 30, 2009, an increase of $61.7 million or 10.26% during the second quarter. * Core deposits grew to $444.3 million as of June 30, 2009, an increase of $7.9 million for the second quarter and $37.6 million year to date. This represents annualized core deposit growth of 7.3% for the second quarter and 18.6% for the first half of the year. The majority of the growth came from non-interest bearing checking accounts. * Lending continued to experience solid growth in both the Commercial & Industrial (C&I) and Home Equity categories. This growth was offset by an expected decrease in both our Commercial and Residential real estate loan categories. Capital The Company's regulatory capital ratios continue to remain above the "well-capitalized" levels of 6 percent for tier 1 capital and 10 percent for risked-based capital. Tier 1 capital at June 30, 2009, was 10.4 percent, compared to 11.7 percent at December 31, 2008. Total risked-based capital at June 30, 2009, was 12.0 percent, compared to 13.0 percent at December 31, 2008. Leverage capital was 8.6 percent at June 30, 2009, well above the regulatory requirement of 5 percent to be considered "well-capitalized". The reduction in capital ratios is the direct result of a large loan loss provision and write down of a foreclosed land development during the quarter, offset by a reduction in total assets. The following table shows our current Capital position as of June 30, 2009 in both dollars and percentages, compared to the minimum amounts required per regulatory standards for "well-capitalized" institutions.

Asset Quality Nonperforming assets plus delinquencies increased $6.1 million from December 31, 2008 to $25.8 million, or 3.78 percent of total assets as of June 30, 2009. This compares with $19.7 million, or 2.81 percent of assets at December 31, 2008 and $24.4 million a year ago, or 3.51 percent of assets at June 30, 2008. Net charge-offs were $3.1 million for the quarter compared with net charge-offs of $117,000 in the first quarter of 2009. The current and historical breakdown of our non-performing assets is as follows:

============================================
Four relationships comprise the non-accrual loans in the Acquisition and Development category, while loans in the Commercial Real Estate category are made up of two relationships. In the Commercial category, 91 percent of the total non-accrual loans are comprised of three relationships. In total, 94 percent of all non-accrual loans are held within nine lending relationships. Our allowance for loan losses was 2.53 percent of total loans at June 30, 2009, an increase from 2.06 percent and 1.90 percent at March 31, 2009, and December 31, 2008, respectively. The year to date increase was the net result of a reduction on loan outstandings of $3.5 million, net charge-offs of $4.1 million, and loan loss provision of $7.5 million. This increased provisioning was primarily driven by a deliberate focus by management on reserve building, a recognition of valuation changes in the marketplace related to underperforming assets, and current economic factors in our local markets. "While we are not pleased with the level of non-performing assets, the main drivers of these numbers are contained to previously identified land development projects and a handful of companies experiencing significant operating difficulties due to the economy versus a portfolio wide deterioration," stated Mr. Cahill. "While the foreclosure and legal process slows our ability to quickly resolve these issues, the smaller number of non-performing assets allows us to be more targeted in moving toward final resolution of these assets once we assume control. The reserve building and charge offs taken this quarter should enhance our abilities in this area during the next 12 months." Balance Sheet Company assets were $686.3 million at June 30, 2009, a decrease of $10.3 million, or 1.5 percent from December 31, 2008. The decrease in assets was primarily attributable to decreases in cash and cash equivalents of $15.7 million and loans of $3.5 million, along with an increase in our allowance for loan losses of $3.5 million. These changes were offset by an increase in long term investments of $4.9 million and loans held for sale of $3.4 million. Cash and cash equivalents decreased primarily due to the net paydown of $15.2 million in borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) and the Federal Reserve Bank (FRB) Discount Window in an effort to recognize more limited lending opportunities in the short term, and the goal of improving our net interest margin. FHLB and FRB Discount Window borrowings at June 30, 2009 were $24.0 million, compared to $39.2 million at December 31, 2008. The decrease in loans came in our Commercial and Residential Real estate categories. Commercial real estate loans decreased by $10.4 million from December 31, 2008, while Residential real estate loans decreased by $9.3 million during that same time frame. Offsetting those decreases was growth of $10.1 million in the Commercial and Industrial (C&I) category and $7.8 million in the Home Equity category. Total loans at June 30, 2009 were $557.5 million, compared to $561.0 million at December 31, 2008. The decrease in commercial real estate was due to continued amortization and payoffs in the portfolio combined with limited new activity. The decrease in the residential portfolio was due to increased refinancing activity during the first half of 2009 combined with the Company's desire to sell these mortgages rather than hold them for both interest rate risk and fee income purposes. The growth in C&I lending and Home Equity is attributable to opportunities in our markets to obtain new clients who are being displaced by larger national lenders. Long term investments increased by $4.9 million to $82.7 million as we continue to expand our investment portfolio to enhance liquidity and yield opportunities in light of the reduction in our loan portfolio. This is a purposeful change in asset allocation driven by profitability and liquidity targets, current economic conditions, and capital management guidelines. Total deposits at June 30, 2009 were $594.6 million compared to $586.2 million at December 31, 2008, an increase of $8.4 million, or 2.87 percent annualized. Core deposit growth of $37.6 million, or 18.5 percent annualized, was led by $23.6 million of growth in our non-interest bearing checking accounts, $10.3 million in money-market accounts, and $4.3 million in interest bearing checking accounts. This growth was offset by a $14.1 million decrease in certificates of deposit and a $15.1 million decrease in brokered deposits. Core deposits, which totaled $444.4 million at June 30, 2009, now comprise 74.7 percent of the entire deposits of the Company compared to 69.4 percent at December 31, 2008. Shareholders' equity was $46.0 million at June 30, 2009, a decrease of 7.4 percent from the $49.6 million reported at December 31, 2008. Affecting the decrease in stockholders' equity was a net loss of $3.7 million, $37,000 of additional paid in capital from the FAS123R accounting treatment for stock options, and an increase of $7,500 in unrealized losses, net of tax, on securities available for sale. Period-end common shares outstanding were 4,090,432. Operating Statement Total revenue, consisting of net interest income and noninterest income, was $6.4 million for the second quarter 2009, an increase of $90,000 from the first quarter 2009 and a decrease of $133,000 from the fourth quarter 2008. Second quarter 2009 net interest income was $4.8 million an increase of $281,000, or 6.2 percent from the first quarter 2009 and a decrease of $351,000, or 6.8 percent compared to the fourth quarter 2008. The increase in net interest income was the result of a 20 basis point improvement in our net interest margin. Net interest margin for the second quarter 2009 was 3.05%, compared to 2.85% for the first quarter 2009 and 3.28% in the fourth quarter 2008. Our net interest margin continues to improve from its low point of 2.69 percent in January. Monthly margins for the second quarter were 2.88 percent, 2.97 percent, and 3.22 percent in April, May, and June, respectively. The first quarter decrease in net interest margin was primarily due to the 75 basis point reduction in interest rates that occurred in late December 2008 combined with our primarily floating rate loan portfolio. Overall, the prime interest rate dropped 4.0 percent during 2008. We believe that the first quarter will be the low point in our net interest margin due to the rolling off and replacement of CD's, the implementation of interest rate floors on loans as they renew, the steady increase in local deposits, and less loan price sensitivity in our markets. These items will more than offset any downward pressure on net interest margin caused by any increases in non-performing assets. Noninterest income accounted for approximately 24.9 percent of total revenue. For the second quarter, noninterest income was $1.6 million, down from the $1.8 million reported in the first quarter of 2009, and up 15.8 percent from the $1.5 million reported in the fourth quarter 2008. The decrease from the first quarter 2009 relates primarily to a $191,000 gain on sale of investments recorded during the first quarter. Currently, Tower Private Advisors manages $663.4 million in combined trust and brokerage assets, an increase of 10.3 percent from the $601.7 million of combined assets reported for March 31, 2009. Trust and brokerage fees were $806,000, a decrease of 7.1 percent from the first quarter 2009; however, this decrease was due to the receipt of significant annual fees in the first quarter of 2009. Looking forward, our fees are positively impacted by the growth in assets under management. Offsetting this second quarter decrease in trust and brokerage fees were increases in bank fee income. Service charges for the Bank were $283,000, a 9.9 percent increase from the first quarter 2009. Loan broker fees were $195,000, a 41.3 percent increase from the first quarter 2009, due to increased refinancing activity being experienced throughout the country. Other fee income increased from the previous quarter by $24,000, or 7.1 percent, primarily as the result of an increase in processing revenue for debit/ATM card transaction, sweep dividends, and BOLI (Bank-owned life insurance) income. Second quarter noninterest expense increased $1.5 million, or 29.3 percent from the first quarter 2009. Approximately $1.3 million of the increase was due to an industry-wide imposed special FDIC assessment of $315,000 and the write-down of the value of a foreclosed property of $950,000. The remaining $200,000 increase was made up primarily from $85,000 in additional industry-wide standard FDIC insurance premiums due a rate increase, $40,000 of costs associated with the annual report and meeting, $30,000 of one-time expense related to IT systems testing, and $30,000 related to timing of an annual contribution commitment. The non-interest expense for the first six months of 2009 versus the same period in 2008 are down by over $1.175 million (excluding the increase in FDIC premiums and $950,000 write down of REO in 2009). This reflects management's continuing diligence in reducing operating costs of the Company. This has been and will continue to receive significant attention and action by management.
