Main Street Trust Announces Fourth Quarter 2004 Earnings and Other Activities CHAMPAIGN, Ill., Jan. 28 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Main Street Trust, Inc. (OTC:MSTI) (BULLETIN BOARD: MSTI) reported earnings of $0.37 in unaudited consolidated net income per diluted share for the quarter ended December 31, 2004, compared to $0.41 per diluted share for the same period in 2003. Consolidated net income for the quarter totaled $3.562 million compared to $3.910 million for the same period in 2003. Unaudited consolidated net income per diluted share for the year ended December 31, 2004 totaled $1.54 compared to $1.60 per diluted share for the year ended December 31, 2003. Consolidated net income for the year totaled $14.778 million compared to $16.605 million for the same period in 2003. It should be noted that MSTI utilized approximately $32.4 million of its capital in September 2003 to purchase treasury stock. Van A. Dukeman, President and CEO stated that, "MSTI earnings for 2004 declined slightly due to compression of our net interest margin, one-time expenses associated with the merger/name change of our subsidiary banks, The First National Bank of Decatur and BankIllinois in the fourth quarter, and a decline in mortgage banking fees. MSTI did post a 12% increase in Wealth Management fees for the year; however, that increase did not offset the decline in mortgage banking fees. Credit quality continues to be excellent with the allowance for loan losses as a percentage of non-performing loans at 432%. Also in the fourth quarter the following other initiatives were achieved: -- Announcement of proposed acquisition of Citizens First Financial Corporation (approximately $327 million in total assets) headquartered in Bloomington, Illinois. Subject to the necessary approvals, closing is anticipated for early in the second quarter of 2005. -- Merged all bank subsidiaries and adopted a single name and identity - Main Street Bank & Trust -- Realigned Main Street Bank & Trust into a line of business structure to encourage growth and accountability -- Opened branch office in Peoria, Illinois area" Cash Dividend Paid The Company distributed a $0.22 per share cash dividend on January 28, 2005, payable to shareholders of record on January 14, 2005. This is the fourth quarterly cash dividend declared in 2004, and represents a 5% increase in the quarterly dividend paid in January 2005.
