FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

CenterState Banks, Inc. Announces

Fourth Quarter 2010 Operating Results

DAVENPORT, FL. – February 7, 2011 - CenterState Banks, Inc. (NASDAQ: CSFL) reported net income for the fourth quarter 2010 of $436,000 or $0.01 per share, which included gain on sale of AFS securities of approximately $0.08 per share.

Loan loss provision for the current quarter was $5,056,000, which was similar to the $4,045,000 and $4,075,000 reported in the second and first quarters, respectively, and considerably less than the $16,448,000 reported in the third quarter. Net charge-offs during the current quarter were $6,801,000, which was considerably less than the $12,627,000 reported in the third quarter.

Net interest margin (“NIM”) improved 6 basis points (“bps”) to 3.36% in 4Q10 compared to 3Q10. The primary reason for this improvement was lower cost of deposits. The cost of interest bearing deposits decreased from 1.25% in 3Q10 to 1.06% in 4Q10. The downward repricing of maturing time deposits combined with the shrinkage of time deposits as a percentage of total deposits were the primary reasons for the overall lower cost.

The correspondent banking division (a reportable segment) reported record earnings performance during the previous quarter. During the current quarter, it reported earnings which were similar to 2Q10 and 1Q10, with gross revenue from bond sales of $7,140,000 and a contribution to net income of approximately $1,161,000 or $0.04 per share.

The Company continues to maintain solid capital levels with a 10.3% Tier 1 Leverage Capital ratio and Tangible Common Equity ratio of approximately 10.4%.

On January 20, 2011, the Company completed the previously announced transaction whereby it acquired approximately $114 million of deposits and $121 million of performing loans from TD Bank N.A. The deposits are located in four Putnam County, Florida branch offices, which are also being acquired. The Company did not pay a premium for the deposits and purchased the loans for 90% of the loans’ outstanding balance. The loans were individually selected by the Company and are located within the Company’s fourteen county market area in central Florida. The Company has the option to put back any purchased loan that becomes thirty days past due or is classified pursuant to regulatory standards during a two year period. Management is currently evaluating market values of the assets and liabilities acquired. The bargain purchase gain, if any, related to this transaction has not yet been determined.

On December 10, 2010, the Company combined its three nationally chartered subsidiary banks into one, at which time the Company went from a multi-bank holding company with four subsidiary banks to a multi-bank holding company with two subsidiary banks, one with a national charter and the other with a state charter. The objective of this combination was to free up capital at the two small national banks, to gain efficiencies and to develop specialists in narrowly defined fields of responsibilities.

The Company continues the integration process of the three failed institutions acquired from the FDIC during the third quarter into the lead bank. These institutions continue to operate on their legacy core processing systems. Conversion is scheduled for summer and early fall 2011. The Company will not fully realize the planned and expected operating efficiencies from these acquisitions until that time.

Net Interest Margin (“NIM”)

The Company’s current quarter NIM increased 6bps to 3.36% compared to the previous quarter, as indicated in the table below. The primary factor contributing to the NIM expansion was the decrease in the cost of the Company’s interest bearing deposits. Overall interest bearing deposit cost decreased from 1.25% in the previous quarter to 1.06% in the current quarter. Quarter to quarter, the cost decreased in each deposit category, but the category affecting the overall decrease the most was time deposits. As time deposits matured the repricing to current market rates was significant in many cases. In addition, the mix of deposits changed whereby time deposits represented 42% of total deposits at the end of the previous quarter and 39% at the end of the current quarter.

Loan portfolio mix and covered loans

Seventeen and a half percent (17.5%) of the Company’s loans, or $198,197,000, are covered by FDIC loss sharing agreements related to the acquisition of three failed financial institutions during the third quarter of 2010. Pursuant to the terms of the loss sharing agreements, the FDIC is obligated to reimburse the Company for 80% of losses with respect to the covered loans beginning with the first dollar of loss incurred, subject to the terms of the agreements. The Company will reimburse the FDIC for its share of recoveries with respect to the covered loans. The loss sharing agreements applicable to single family residential mortgage loans provide for FDIC loss sharing and the Company reimbursement to the FDIC for recoveries for ten years. The loss sharing agreements applicable to commercial loans provides for FDIC loss sharing for five years and Company reimbursement to the FDIC for a total of eight years for recoveries.

Eighty-two and a half percent (82.5%) of the Company’s loans, or $931,749,000, are not covered by FDIC loss sharing agreements. Of this amount approximately 83% are collateralized by real estate, 11% are commercial non real estate loans and the remaining 6% are consumer and other non real estate loans. The table below summarizes the Company’s loan mix over the most recent five quarter ends.

Credit quality and allowance for loan losses

During the current quarter, the Company recorded a charge of $5,056,000 to loan loss provision (expense) and charged-off (net of recoveries) $6,801,000, or 0.72% of average outstanding loans during the quarter (2.85% of average loans on an annualized basis), excluding loans covered by FDIC loss sharing agreements.


The allowance for loan losses was $26,267,000 at December 31, 2010 compared to $28,012,000 at September 30, 2010, a decrease of $1,745,000 ($5,056,000 charge to loan loss expense less $6,801,000 net charge-offs equals $1,745,000 loan loss allowance decrease during the fourth quarter 2010). This decrease is the result of a $286,000 increase in general loan loss allowance and a $2,031,000 decrease in specific loan loss allowance. The increase in our general allowance is primarily due to changes in our historical charge-off rates, changes in our current environmental factors, and changes in the loan portfolio mix, plus the increase in the amount of our loan portfolio. Our specific allowance is the aggregate of the results of individual analyses prepared for each one of our impaired loans not covered by an FDIC loss sharing agreement on a loan by loan basis.

The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of loans outstanding which are not covered by FDIC loss share agreements was 2.82% as of December 31, 2010 compared to 3.04% as of September 30, 2010. Management believes the Company’s allowance for loan losses is adequate at December 31, 2010. However, management recognizes that many factors can adversely impact various segments of the Company’s market and customers, and therefore there is no assurance as to the amount of losses or probable losses which may develop in the future. The table below summarizes the changes in allowance for loan losses during the previous five quarters.

The Company defines non performing loans as non accrual loans plus loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest. Non performing loans do not include loans covered by FDIC loss share agreements, which are accounted for pursuant to ASC Topic 310-30. Non performing loans as a percentage of total loans not covered by FDIC loss share agreements were 7.06% at December 31, 2010 compared to 6.13% at September 30, 2010.

Non performing assets (which the Company defines as non performing loans, as defined above, plus (a) OREO (i.e. real estate acquired through foreclosure, in-substance foreclosure, or deed in lieu of foreclosure), excluding OREO covered by FDIC loss share agreements; and (b) other repossessed assets that are not real estate, and are not covered by FDIC loss share agreements), were $78,524,000 at December 31, 2010, compared to $68,827,000 at September 30, 2010. Non performing assets as a


percentage of total assets was 3.81% at December 31, 2010 compared to 3.24% at September 30, 2010. Non performing assets as a percentage of loans plus OREO and other repossessed assets, excluding loans and OREO covered by FDIC loss share agreements, was 8.31% at December 31, 2010 compared to 7.38% at September 30, 2010.

Note 1: Excludes loans, OREO and other repossessed assets covered by FDIC loss share agreements.
Note 2: In this current real estate crisis the Nation in general and Florida in particular have been experiencing, it has become more common to restructure or modify the terms of certain loans under certain conditions (i.e. troubled debt restructure or “TDRs”). In those circumstances it may be beneficial to restructure the terms of a loan and work with the borrower for the benefit of both parties, versus forcing the property into foreclosure and having to dispose of it in an unfavorable and depressed real estate market. When we have modified the terms of a loan, we usually either reduce the monthly payment and/or interest rate for generally about twelve months. We have not forgiven any material principal amounts on any loan modifications to date. We have approximately $22,322 of TDRs. Of this amount $10,591 are performing pursuant to their modified terms, and $11,731 are not performing and have been placed on non accrual status and included in our non performing loans (“NPLs”). Current accounting standards require TDRs to be included in our impaired loans, whether they are performing or not performing. Only non performing TDRs are included in our NPLs.


As shown in the table above, the largest component of non performing loans is non accrual loans. As of December 31, 2010 the Company had reported a total of 268 non accrual loans with an aggregate book value of $62,553,000, compared to September 30, 2010 when 243 non accrual loans with an aggregate book value of $55,921,000 were reported. Also, as shown in the table above, non accrual loans, non performing loans and non performing assets increased quarter to quarter in each of the last five quarters. This is reflective of the economy in general and specifically the significantly devalued real estate market in Florida. Non accrual loans at December 31, 2010 are further delineated by collateral category and number of loans in the table below (in thousands of dollars).

The second largest component of non performing assets after non accrual loans is OREO, excluding OREO covered by FDIC loss share agreements. At December 31, 2010, total OREO was $23,343,000. Of this amount, $11,104,000 was acquired pursuant to the acquisition of three failed financial institutions during the third quarter of 2010. The acquired OREO is covered by FDIC loss sharing agreements. Pursuant to the terms of the loss sharing agreements, the FDIC is obligated to reimburse the Company for 80% of losses with respect to the covered OREO beginning with the first dollar of loss incurred, subject to the terms of the agreements. The Company will reimburse the FDIC for its share of recoveries with respect to the covered OREO. The loss sharing agreements applicable to single family residential mortgage loans provide for FDIC loss sharing and the Company reimbursement to the FDIC for recoveries for ten years. The loss sharing agreements applicable to commercial loans provides for FDIC loss sharing for five years and Company reimbursement to the FDIC for a total of eight years for recoveries.

OREO not covered by FDIC loss share agreements is $12,239,000 at December 31, 2010. OREO is carried at the lower of cost or market less the estimated cost to sell. Further declines in real estate values can affect the market value of these assets. Any further decline in market value beyond its cost basis is recorded as a current expense in the Company’s Statement of Operations. The current carrying value represents approximately 62% of the unpaid legal balance of the related loan when the asset was repossessed. OREO is further delineated in the table below (in thousands of dollars).

Deposit activity

During the current quarter, time deposits decreased by $60,335,000 and non time deposits increased by $25,624,000. Quarter to quarter, cost of deposits decreased in each deposit category, but the category effecting the overall decrease the most was time deposits. In addition to repricing maturing time deposits to current market rates, time deposits as a percentage of total deposits decreased from 42% to 39%. During the same time, core deposits (non time deposits) as a percentage of total deposits increased, both in terms of actual dollars and as a percentage of total deposits. A summary of our deposit mix over the previous five quarters is presented in the table below.

Explanation of Certain Unaudited Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains financial information determined by methods other than Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). The attached financial highlights provide reconciliations between GAAP interest income, net interest income and tax equivalent basis interest income and net interest income, as well as total stockholders equity and tangible common equity. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in its analysis of the Company’s performance and believes these presentations provide useful supplemental information, and a clearer understanding of the Company’s performance. The Company believes the non-GAAP measures enhance investors’ understanding of the Company’s business and performance. These measures are also useful in understanding performance


trends and facilitate comparisons with the performance of other financial institutions. The limitations associated with operating measures are the risk that persons might disagree as to the appropriateness of items comprising these measures and that different companies might calculate these measures differently. The Company provides reconciliations between GAAP and these non-GAAP measures. These disclosures should not be considered an alternative to GAAP.
