“Last fall, we challenged our associates to grow our loans and deposits.  Viewing the outstanding results for the first quarter, it appears our team is well on its way to achieving those goals” commented David Zalman, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.

“With earnings up over 9%, linked quarter annualized loan growth in excess of 10% and linked quarter annualized deposit growth over 19%, I need to compliment all of our associates for their outstanding efforts. In addition, our asset quality has continued to improve with our non-performing asset ratio falling to 0.16% of average earning assets.  Our company is fortunate to be located in one of the fastest growing states in the nation with what we believe to be one of the best economies.  With our 175 full service locations across the state, we believe we are well positioned for continued growth” continued Zalman.

In addition to Prosperity’s GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) financial reporting, Prosperity’s management includes certain non−GAAP financial measures to evaluate its performance. Specifically, Prosperity reviews return on average tangible common equity, tangible book value per share and the tangible equity to tangible assets ratio.  Prosperity has included in this Earnings Release information relating to these non-GAAP financial measures for the applicable periods presented.  Please refer to the “Notes to Selected Financial Data” at the end of this Earnings Release for a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures.

Results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2011

For the three months ended March 31, 2011, net income was $33.878 million compared with $30.998 million for the same period in 2010.  Net income per diluted common share was $0.72 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and $0.66 for the same period in 2010. Returns on average assets, average common equity and average tangible common equity for the three months ended March 31, 2011 were 1.42%, 9.22% and 26.22%, respectively.  Prosperity’s efficiency ratio (excluding net gains and losses on the sale of assets) was 44.30% for the three months ended March 31, 2011.

Net interest income before provision for credit losses for the three months ended March 31, 2011 increased 3.4% to $80.413 million compared with $77.772 million during the same period in 2010.  The increase in net interest income was primarily due to growth in average earning assets of $626.685 million or 8.3% from $7.581 billion at March 31, 2010 to $8.208 billion at March 31, 2011.  The net interest margin on a tax equivalent basis decreased to 4.02% for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared with 4.20% for the same period in 2010.   The tax equivalent net interest margin increased 3 basis points to 4.02% reported for the three months ended March 31, 2011 from 3.99% reported for the three months ended December 31, 2010.

Non-interest income increased $889,000 or 6.9% to $13.867 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared with $12.978 million for the same period in 2010. The increase in non-interest income is primarily attributed to the U.S. Bank and First Bank branch acquisitions which occurred on March 29, 2010 and April 30, 2010, respectively, and an increase in debit card and ATM card income.

Non-interest expense increased $1.970 million or 5.0% to $41.695 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared with $39.725 million for the same period in 2010. This is primarily attributable to additional salaries and benefits expense which was impacted by personnel added from the U.S. Bank and First Bank branch acquisitions.

Loans at March 31, 2011 were $3.573 billion, an increase of $224.537 million or 6.7%, compared with $3.348 billion at March 31, 2010.  Loans increased 2.5% (10.1% annualized) or $87.897 million on a linked quarter basis compared with loans of $3.485 billion at December 31, 2010.  As reflected in the table below, linked quarter loans at March 31, 2011 were impacted by the loans acquired in connection with the U.S. Bank and First Bank branch acquisitions.  Excluding the loans acquired in these acquisitions, linked quarter loans increased 8.6% on an annualized basis.

Deposits at March 31, 2011 were $7.816 billion, an increase of $217.405 million or 2.9%, compared with $7.599 billion at March 31, 2010.  Linked quarter deposits increased $361.464 million or 4.9% (19.4% annualized) from $7.455 billion at December 31, 2010.  As reflected in the table below, linked quarter deposits at March 31, 2011 were impacted by the deposits assumed in connection with the U.S. Bank and First Bank branch acquisitions. Excluding the deposits assumed in these acquisitions, linked quarter deposits increased 23.7% on an annualized basis.

After the consolidation of locations near existing Prosperity banking centers, Prosperity operates thirty-one (31) Dallas/Fort Worth area banking centers and sixty (60) Houston area banking centers.

The deposits assumed were primarily core deposits and the $100 million in loans purchased were individually selected by Prosperity from First Bank’s loan portfolio associated with the Texas branches and consisted of performing business and consumer-related Texas-based loans.

Acquisition of U. S. Bank’s Texas Branches

On March 29, 2010, Prosperity completed the previously announced acquisition of the three (3) Texas retail bank branches of U.S. Bank. The transaction continued Prosperity’s strategic growth and expansion of the franchise in Texas.  Prosperity Bank paid a premium for approximately $375 million in deposits, as well as purchased certain loans and other assets attributable to the branches.  

The three locations acquired by Prosperity were the Texas locations U.S. Bank acquired from the FDIC on October 30, 2009 when U.S. Bank acquired the nine (9) subsidiary banks of FBOP Corporation.  The Texas banks were Madisonville State Bank in Madisonville, Texas; Citizens National Bank in Teague, Texas; and North Houston Bank in Houston, Texas.

Consolidated Financial Highlights

NOTES TO SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA

Prosperity’s management uses certain non−GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) financial measures to evaluate its performance. Specifically, Prosperity reviews tangible book value per share, return on average tangible common equity and the tangible equity to tangible assets ratio for internal planning and forecasting purposes.  Prosperity has included in this Earnings Release information relating to these non-GAAP financial measures for the applicable periods presented.  Prosperity believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide information useful to investors in understanding Prosperity’s financial results and Prosperity believes that its presentation, together with the accompanying reconciliations, provides a better understanding of factors and trends affecting Prosperity’s business and allows investors to view performance in a manner similar to management, the entire financial services sector, bank stock analysts and bank regulators. Further, Prosperity believes that these non-GAAP measures provide useful information by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of its core operating earnings and business outlook.  These non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for GAAP basis measures and results and Prosperity strongly encourages investors to review its consolidated financial statements in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure. Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies’ non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names.
