Net Interest Income

Tax-equivalent net interest margin for the fourth quarter of 2011 was 3.93%, compared to 3.78% in the comparable quarter of 2010. Net interest income was $18.27 million for the fourth quarter of 2011, an increase of $167 thousand, or 0.01%, from the fourth quarter of 2010. Total interest income was $23.20 million for the fourth quarter of 2011, a decrease of $1.77 million, or 7.10%, from the fourth quarter of 2010. The decrease in interest income reflects a degree of continued loan and investment repricing, effectively reducing the average yields. The yield on loans was 5.69% for the fourth quarter of 2011, a decrease from 5.94% in the same period of the prior year, while average loans decreased slightly between the comparable periods to $1.39 billion as loan demand remains low.

Total interest expense for the fourth quarter of 2011 was $4.94 million, a decrease of $1.94 million, or 28.23%, from the fourth quarter of 2010. Fourth quarter 2011 deposit costs decreased $1.77 million compared to the fourth quarter of 2010, which was primarily due to a decrease in the average rate paid on interest-bearing deposits of 43 basis points to 0.79%. Fourth quarter 2011 borrowing costs decreased $171 thousand compared to the fourth quarter of 2010, while the average borrowings balance decreased $49.40 million between the comparable periods due to the redemption of various wholesale borrowings and declining commercial cash management balances. The cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased 33 basis points to 1.21% during the fourth quarter of 2011 as compared to the same quarter of the prior year. Average interest-bearing liabilities decreased $156.96 million, or 8.86%, for the fourth quarter of 2011 compared with the fourth quarter of 2010, which included a decrease of $25.24 million in Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") borrowings and other long-term debt.

Provision

The provision for loan losses for the fourth quarter and twelve months ended December 31, 2011, totaled $2.44 million and $9.05 million, respectively, which compares very favorably to the provision for loan losses for the fourth quarter and twelve months ended December 31, 2010, of $3.69 million and $14.76 million, respectively. The fourth quarter of 2011 marks the sixth consecutive quarter of provision decreases when compared to the prior year's comparable quarter.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income for the fourth quarter of 2011 decreased $5.48 million, or 45.35%, compared to the fourth quarter of 2010, largely due to a reduction in realized gains on the investment securities portfolio. During the fourth quarter of 2011, wealth management income totaled $818 thousand, a decrease of $204 thousand, or 19.96%, from the fourth quarter of 2010. The Trust and Wealth Management Divisions reported $873 million in assets under management at December 31, 2011. Service charges on deposit accounts totaled $3.45 million for the fourth quarter of 2011, an increase of $118 thousand, or 3.54%, from the fourth quarter of 2010. Insurance commissions were $1.17 million for the fourth quarter of 2011, a decrease of $304 thousand, or 20.62%, from the comparable quarter of 2010. Net gains on the sales of securities decreased $4.22 million, or 99.39%, in the fourth quarter of 2011 as compared to the same period of the prior year.

Noninterest Expenses

Noninterest expenses for the fourth quarter of 2011 decreased $2.79 million, or 14.06%, compared to the fourth quarter of 2010. Salaries and employee benefits decreased $1.42 million, or 15.19%, in the fourth quarter of 2011 compared to the same period in the prior year. Occupancy, furniture, and equipment expense for the fourth quarter of 2011 decreased $158 thousand, or 6.19%, compared to the fourth quarter of 2010. Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") deposit insurance premiums decreased $383 thousand, or 52.68%, in the fourth quarter of 2011, compared to the fourth quarter of 2010, primarily due to the FDIC's change in assessment methodology for deposit insurance to one based on tangible assets. As of December 31, 2011, the Company recognized a technical goodwill impairment of $1.24 million at the insurance agency despite strong operating earnings and good realization on recent sales of non-strategic segments of that business. Other operating expenses were $4.93 million for the fourth quarter of 2011, a decrease of $1.02 million, or 17.16%, from the fourth quarter of 2010. Included in other operating expenses are expenses and losses associated with other real estate that amounted to $694 thousand in the fourth quarter of 2011, compared to $675 thousand in the third quarter of 2011, and $1.12 million in the fourth quarter of 2010. The efficiency ratio for the fourth quarter of 2011 declined to 54.93%, a significant improvement over both the third quarter of 2011 and the fourth quarter of 2010.

Credit Quality

The Company's loan quality measures at December 31, 2011, continue to compare favorably to the industry. Total loan delinquencies of 30 days or more, including non-accrual loans, as a percent of total loans were 2.62% at both December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010. This compares favorably to the most recent Federal Reserve report of the Company's peer group of bank holding companies with total assets between $1 and $3 billion, which reports peer total loan delinquencies of 3.86%. The ratio of the allowance for loan losses as a percent of loans held for investment was 1.88% at December 31, 2011, compared to 1.91% at December 31, 2010.

Total non-performing assets, which include unseasoned loan restructurings and other real estate owned, were 1.57% of total assets at December 31, 2011, and non-performing loans as a percentage of loans held for investment were 2.00%. These levels are much better by comparison with those in the Federal Reserve peer group which were last reported at 3.08% for total non-performing assets to total assets and 3.26% for non-performing loans to total loans. Included in non-performing assets are $3.50 million of unseasoned loan restructurings at December 31, 2011.

Annualized net charge-offs were 0.75% of average loans held for investment for the fourth quarter of 2011. This represents a decrease of 28 basis points from 1.03% for the fourth quarter of 2010 and continues a general downward trend in net charge-offs.

Balance Sheet and Capital

Consolidated assets were $2.16 billion at December 31, 2011. Total stockholders' equity was $305.73 million at December 31, 2011, resulting in a book value per common share, on an as-converted basis, of $15.96, compared to total stockholders' equity of $269.88 million and a book value per common share of $15.11 at December 31, 2010. During the fourth quarter of 2011, the Company repurchased 33,200 treasury shares. The Company also paid a $0.10 per share cash dividend on common shares during the fourth quarter of 2011.

Non-GAAP Presentations

The Company prepares its financial statements under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or "GAAP." However, this press release also refers to certain non-GAAP financial measures that we believe, when considered together with GAAP financial measures, provide investors with important information regarding our operational performance. An analysis of any non-GAAP financial measure should be used in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP.

Core earnings are a non-GAAP financial measure that reflect net income excluding non-recurring income and expense items, taxes, loan loss provisions, losses on other real estate owned, as well as gains, losses, impairment losses on securities, and goodwill impairments from net income. These excluded items are difficult to predict and we believe that core earnings provide the Company and investors with a valuable tool to evaluate the Company's financial results.

The adjusted efficiency ratio is a non-GAAP financial measure that is computed by dividing core noninterest expense by the sum of net interest income on a tax equivalent basis and core noninterest income. We believe that this measure provides investors with important information about our operating efficiency. Comparison of our adjusted efficiency ratio with those of other companies may not be possible because other companies may calculate the adjusted efficiency ratio differently.

Tangible book value per share is a non-GAAP financial measure that is defined as stockholders' equity less goodwill and other intangible assets, divided by as-converted common shares outstanding.
