Mercantile Bank Corporation Reports First Quarter 2011 Results
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., April 19, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) Mercantile Bank Corporation (NASDAQ: MBWM)
(Mercantile) reported net income attributable to common shares of $1.1 million, or $0.12 per
diluted common share, for the first quarter of 2011 compared with a net loss attributable to common
shares of $3.0 million, or ($0.35) per diluted common share, for the first quarter of 2010.
Mercantile returned to profitability during the first quarter of 2011 after reporting net losses
during 2009 and 2010. A record high net interest margin and a significantly lower provision for
loan losses were the key drivers of the improved performance. The decreased provision expense for
the quarter reflects lower volumes of loan rating downgrades and nonperforming loans, as well as
progress in the stabilization of economic and real estate market conditions and resulting
collateral valuations.
Michael Price, Chairman and CEO of Mercantile Bank Corporation, stated, We are pleased to report
first quarter results, our first profitable quarter after two years of quarterly losses. As weve
stated repeatedly in past quarters, we have been consistently conservative in our approach to
credit administration and aggressive with respect to the resolution of problem assets. At the onset
of the recession, senior management and the Board of Directors developed strategies to counter the
negative impact of the distressed economy and subsequent decline in real estate values. In
addition, we restructured our branch network, cut discretionary operating expenses, downsized our
loan portfolio, enhanced our deposit product offerings and improved our loan and deposit pricing
strategies to preserve and even boost our capital position. Considerable resources have
been applied to credit administration and problem asset resolution. The process has been stressful
to all concerned borrowers as well as the Mercantile team but I have been pleased by the
spirit of cooperation that prevailed among and between all constituencies.
This quarter clearly demonstrates the light at the other side of this lengthy tunnel. Although
nonperforming assets remain higher than we would like, significant reductions have been achieved
over the past twelve months and evidence of recovery is unmistakable. New additions to the problem
loan portfolio were significantly lower this quarter, and loans 30 to 89 days delinquent are
virtually zero. We have also been upgrading certain of our existing loans based on the improving
credit strength of those borrowers. All of these factors contributed to this quarters sharply
lower loan loss provision, which we believe is sustainable.
We are enthused to be emerging from the prolonged stress of this economic cycle in a position of
strength. Credit policies and procedures have been honed under the most challenging circumstances,
providing for improved profitability of performing loans, a pruned loan portfolio and enhanced risk
identification and administration practices. Our net interest margin reached a record high this
quarter, despite the $60 million of nonperforming loans remaining in the mix, and we have made
substantial reductions to our controllable overhead expenses. Our regulatory capital ratios are
strong and improving, and we have improved our liquidity position through dramatically reduced
reliance on wholesale funding and higher levels of short-term investments. We believe these
enhancements are also sustainable and will contribute to profitability in future quarters.
Operating Results
Total revenue, consisting of net interest income and noninterest income, was $15.2 million during
the 2011 first quarter, down $1.8 million, or 10.4 percent, from the $17.0 million generated during
the first quarter of 2010. Net interest income was $13.4 million, down $0.9 million, or 6.0
percent, from the $14.3 million earned in the prior-year first quarter. The decrease in net
interest income resulted from a 16.7 percent decline in average earning assets, partially offset by
a 39 basis point expansion in the net interest margin.
Noninterest income for the 2011 first quarter was $1.8 million. Excluding first quarter 2010
nonrecurring gains totaling $0.7 million from the sale of SBA-guaranteed commercial loans and
tax-exempt securities, first quarter 2011 noninterest income was down $0.2 million, or 10.6
percent, from the comparable prior-year period. The decrease in noninterest income primarily
reflects lower rental income from fewer foreclosed properties.
The provision for loan losses was $2.2 million during the first quarter of 2011, compared to $8.4
million for the year-ago quarter. The reduced provision expense reflects several positive factors:
a significant decline in total nonperforming loans, a slowdown in loan-rating downgrades, an
increase in loan-rating upgrades resulting from improving economic conditions, and progress in the
stabilization of real estate valuations in Mercantiles markets. The allowance for loan losses was
3.49 percent of total loans as of March 31,
2011, compared to 3.59 percent as of December 31, 2010, and 3.35 percent as of March 31, 2010.
Noninterest expense for the 2011 first quarter was $11.6 million, down $0.1 million from the
year-ago quarter. Reduced controllable expenses, namely salaries and benefits, occupancy, and
furniture and equipment costs, and lower FDIC insurance premiums were substantially offset by
increased nonperforming asset costs. Controllable expenses declined $0.5 million, or 7.7 percent,
during the first quarter of 2011 compared to the prior-year quarter. FDIC insurance premiums were
$0.9 million in the first quarter of 2011, down from $1.2 million in the first quarter of 2010; the
lower premiums primarily resulted from a decreased assessment base and rate. Costs associated with
the administration and resolution of problem assets (i.e., legal expenses, property tax payments,
appraisal costs and write-downs on foreclosed properties) totaled $3.1 million during the first
quarter of 2011, up $0.6 million, or 23.7 percent, from the year-ago quarter.
Balance Sheet
Total assets as of March 31, 2011 were $1.58 billion, down $55.5 million, or 3.4 percent, from
December 31, 2010; total loans declined $55.7 million, or 4.4 percent, over the same time period,
to $1.21 billion. Compared to March 31, 2010, total assets declined $326 million, or 17.1 percent,
with total loans declining $291 million, or 19.4 percent.
Real estate loans, particularly loans secured by commercial properties, comprise a majority of
Mercantiles loan portfolio. Although the Company has been aggressively down-sizing its real estate
exposures, commercial/industrial activity has yet to rebound sufficiently to replace loans secured
by real property. At March 31, 2011, real estate loans, excluding residential mortgage loans
representing permanent financing of owner-occupied dwellings and home equity lines of credit, were
$848 million, or approximately 70 percent of total loans, representing a decline of $163 million,
or 16.1 percent, from the $1.01 billion (67.6 percent of total loans) at March 31, 2010.
Non-owner occupied commercial real estate (CRE) loans totaled $485 million as of March 31, 2011
(40.2 percent of total loans), a decline of $54.7 million over the past twelve months.
Owner-occupied CRE loans were $274 million at first quarter-end 2011, a decline of $42.6 million
over the same period. Vacant land, land development and construction (C&D) loans, including both
residential and commercial projects, totaled $90.0 million at March 31, 2011, down $66.1 million
since first quarter-end 2010. The commercial and industrial (C&I) segment of the loan portfolio
was $248 million at March 31, 2011, a decline of approximately $104 million over the past twelve
months, in large part reflecting the continued sluggishness in business activity and a
corresponding reduction in accounts receivable and inventory financings, as well as significantly
reduced requests for new equipment financing.

Mercantiles liquidity continues to improve as local deposits, especially interest-bearing
checking and money market deposit accounts, increase in total dollars and as a percentage of total
funding. As of March 31, 2011, total deposits were $1.25 billion, a decline of $20.2 million since
year-end 2010 and a reduction of $346 million since year-end 2008. By comparison, local deposits
increased $287 million over the past 27 months; they now represent 60.4 percent of total deposits
compared to 29.4 percent at December 31, 2008. Approximately 86 percent, or $245 million, of local
deposit growth since year-end 2008 occurred in the interest-bearing checking and money market
deposit account categories, primarily reflecting new and innovative products, various
deposit-gathering initiatives, and enhanced advertising campaigns that have attracted new deposits
as well as transfers from maturing time deposit accounts.
Wholesale funds were $572 million, or 40.5 percent of total funds, as of March 31, 2011, compared
to $1.41 billion, or 71.5 percent of total funds, as of December 31, 2008. The $843 million decline
in wholesale funding reflects both the shift toward local deposits as well as a $650 million
decline in total loans; this allowed Mercantile to reduce brokered deposits and FHLB advances as
they matured over the past 27 months and to prepay certain FHLB advances during the fourth quarter
of 2010.
Short-term investments, consisting of federal funds sold and interest-bearing bank deposits,
averaged $57.3 million during the first quarter of 2011. In addition to its short-term investments,
Mercantile has approximately $140 million of borrowing capacity through various established lines
of credit to meet potential funding needs as well as about $45 million of U.S. Government
securities available to sell if needed.
Asset Quality
Nonperforming assets (NPAs) at March 31, 2011 were $76.1 million, or 4.8 percent of total assets,
compared to $86.1 million as of December 31, 2010, and $117.6 million as of March 31, 2010 (5.3
percent and 6.2 percent of total assets, respectively). This represents a decline of $10.0 million,
or 11.6 percent, from the linked quarter-end and a decline of $41.5 million, or 35.3 percent, from
the year-ago quarter-end.
Robert B. Kaminski Jr., Mercantiles Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, added,
Nonperforming assets declined 35 percent from their high point of $117 million reported in the
year-ago first quarter, to $76 million for the current quarter, the lowest level of the past two
years. We have been consistent throughout this economic downturn in our application of Mercantiles
credit administration and workout policies, and we dont plan to stop our vigilance as conditions
improve. The lessons learned from this cycle have significantly influenced our lending strategies,
which we believe will serve us well in future periods. We anticipate that asset quality should
continue to improve as the economy gathers strength, with fewer additions to nonperforming assets.
Nonperforming loans (NPLs) totaled $60.2 million as of March 31, 2011, down $9.2 million and
$34.3 million, respectively, from the linked quarter-end and the year-ago quarter-end, while
foreclosed real estate and repossessed assets declined by $0.8 million and $7.2 million,
respectively, from the linked and the year-ago quarter-ends. CRE loans represent 53.8 percent of
NPLs, or $32.4 million. Investor-owned nonperforming CRE loans account for $22.5 million of total
CRE nonperforming loans (4.7 percent of $485 million investor-owned CRE loans), while
owner-occupied CRE loans account for $9.9 million (3.6 percent of $274 million owner-occupied CRE
loans). Given the nature of collateral and the condition of the economy in general, and real estate
markets specifically, progress toward resolution has been slow in both CRE categories, although
some acceleration has been noted over the past few quarters.
Progress has also been achieved this past year toward resolution of nonperforming C&D loans,
including both residential and commercial projects. C&D loans currently total $90.0 million, of
which $14.4 million, or 16.0 percent, were nonperforming at March 31, 2011. This represents a
substantial improvement since March 31, 2010, when $31.1 million, or 19.9 percent, of the $156
million C&D loan portfolio was nonperforming. Nonperforming C&I loans were $4.7 million as of March
31, 2011, a decline of $4.4 million since the year-ago quarter-end. Owner-occupied and rental
residential NPLs were $8.6 million as of March 31, 2011, up $3.7 million since the year-ago
quarter-end.

During the 2011 first quarter, Mercantile added $3.9 million of NPAs to its problem asset
portfolio and successfully disposed of $8.5 million through a combination of asset sales, principal
pay-downs, and returns to performing status. Loan charge-offs were $4.8 million and foreclosed
asset valuation write-downs were $0.6 million. In total, nonperforming assets decreased a net $10.0
million from year-end 2010.
Improvement in asset quality is even more apparent on a year-over-year basis. Since March 31, 2010,
Mercantile added $41.5 million of problem assets to its NPA portfolio, successfully disposed of
$47.7 million, and charged-off or wrote-down an additional $35.3 million. In total, NPAs declined a
net $41.5 million since the year-ago quarter-end. By comparison, Mercantile added $103.9 million of
NPAs, successfully disposed of $34.4 million, and charged-off or wrote-down an additional $35.7
million during the twelve-month period ended March 31, 2010. In total, NPAs increased a net $33.8
million from March 31, 2009 to March 31, 2010.

Capital Position
Shareholders equity totaled $127 million as of March 31, 2011, a decrease of $11.4 million, or 8.3
percent, from March 31, 2010; however, regulatory capital ratios continue to improve. The Bank
remains well-capitalized with a total risk-based capital ratio of 13.0 percent as of March 31,
2011 compared to 11.2 percent at March 31, 2010. At March 31, 2011, the Bank had approximately
$41.1 million in excess of the 10.0 percent minimum regulatory threshold required to be considered
a well-capitalized institution. Mercantiles total shares outstanding at first quarter-end were
8,601,117.
In conclusion, Mr. Price commented that Mercantiles turnaround is still in its early stages.
There is additional upside to be achieved from the continued reduction of problem assets, which
should enhance our revenues, further decrease the loan loss provision, and reduce expenses
associated with the administration and resolution of problem assets. These improvements in asset
quality alone should contribute meaningfully to increased profitability as the economy continues to
gather strength. We are also planning for any emerging opportunities in the changing commercial
landscape of West and Central Michigan that might provide Mercantile with opportunities for future
growth.
