During the current quarter, non performing asset (“NPA”) inflows were approximately $7,220 and the outflows were approximately $9,264. Outflows consist primarily of net charge offs, loan sales, OREO (“repossessed real estate”) sales, and OREO valuation write downs. Inflows consist primarily of additions of new nonaccrual loans net of any prior nonaccrual loans returning to accrual status and also net of any principal pay-downs or pay-offs. The table below summarizes the approximate NPA inflows and outflows during the quarters presented.

Net interest margin (“NIM”) contracted by 4 basis points (“bps”) to 3.69% in 3Q11 compared to 3.73% reported in 2Q11. The cost of interest bearing liabilities decreased 5 bps, about what was expected. There were significant declines in yields and interest income on taxable securities and federal funds sold due to the current low interest rate environment and recent actions by the Fed. These decreases were partially offset by increased yields on loans covered by FDIC loss share agreements. These loans are accounted for pursuant to SOP 03-3 (ASC Topic 310-30). During the current quarter, management estimated that future expected losses appear to be less than originally estimated and as such future expected cash flows are now estimated to be higher than previously estimated. Higher future expected cash flows are accreted into interest income over the expected lives of the loans increasing their yields from an average of 5.51% in 2Q11 to 6.21% in 3Q11. Management reviews actual and expected cash flows in this portfolio on a quarterly basis and makes judgments with regard to actual versus expected losses, actual versus expected cash flows, potential impairments and potential adjustments to future accretable yields.


During September, the Company completed the integration of the three failed institutions acquired from the FDIC during the third quarter of 2010 into its lead bank. The first of the three was converted into the lead bank’s core system during June, the second was converted in July and the third in September. As discussed in prior quarters, the FDIC acquired banks as well as other activities, have elevated the Company’s operating expenses (excluding correspondent banking division expenses and credit cost), which have increased each quarter during a six quarter period, much of which, but not all, is temporary in nature. The Company reported a decrease in these expenses in 2Q11 versus 1Q11 and a continued decrease in 3Q11 compared to 2Q11. The Company expects to continue to realize increased efficiencies in the fourth quarter of this year and into 2012. Refer to “all other non interest expenses” in the table below.

The Company previously announced its pending acquisition of Federal Trust Bank in Sanford, Florida. The transaction will result in the acquisition of approximately $200 million of deposits and approximately $165 of performing loans. The Company is purchasing the performing loans for 73% of their unpaid outstanding legal balance, and will have a one year period to put back any loan that becomes 30 days past due, or adversely classified. The Company is not paying a premium for the assumption of the deposits. Branch locations will be purchased based on a current real estate appraisal. The Company expects to acquire five of the existing eleven branches. The Company expects to recognize a substantial bargain purchase gain when the transaction closes, which is expected to occur in November 2011.

Capital levels continue to remain strong, with Tier 1 Leverage Capital and Tangible Common Equity ratios of approximately 10.3% and 9.8%, respectively.

The remaining non interest income items in this category include fees from safe-keeping activities, bond accounting services, asset/liability consulting related activities, international wires, clearing and corporate checking account services, and other correspondent banking related revenue and fees.
Note 4: The majority of these expenses are variable in nature and are a derivative of the income from correspondent banking and bond sales division.

Net Interest Margin (“NIM”)

As discussed above, the NIM contracted by 4 bps between sequential quarters, primarily due to lower yields on taxable securities, federal funds sold and other investments. This was partially offset by higher yields on loans covered by FDIC loss share agreements accounted for pursuant to ASC Topic 310-30 (SOP 03-3). Cost of interest bearing deposits, as well as total interest bearing liabilities, both decreased by 5 bps between sequential quarters. The tables below summarizes yields and costs by various interest earning asset and interest bearing liability account types for the current quarter, the previous calendar quarter and the same quarter last year. The second table below also lists selected financial ratios for the last five quarters.

Loan portfolio mix and covered loans

Approximately 14.7% of the Company’s loans, or $171,193, is 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. All of the covered loans acquired are accounted for pursuant to ASC Topic 310-30.

In addition, approximately 8.3% of the Company’s loans, or $97,048, are subject to a two year put back option, commencing January 20, 2011, with TD Bank, N.A., so that if any of these loans become 30 days past due or are adversely classified pursuant to bank regulatory guidelines, the Company has the option to put back the loan to TD Bank.

Approximately 77% of the Company’s loans, or $894,677, is not covered by FDIC loss sharing agreements or subject to a put back option with TD Bank, N.A. 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, excluding loans covered by FDIC loss share agreements, the Company recorded a charge of $4,985 to loan loss provision (expense) and charged-off (net of recoveries) $6,524 or 0.66% of average outstanding loans during the quarter (2.64% of average loans on an annualized basis). With regard to loans covered by FDIC loss share agreements, the Company recorded a charge of $20 to loan loss provision (expense) and recorded a recovery of $293 of a previous charge-off. See the table “Allowance for loan losses” on the following page for additional information.


The allowance for loan losses (“ALLL”) was $26,192 at September 30, 2011 compared to $27,418 at June 30, 2011, a decrease of $1,226. This decrease is the result of a $8 decrease in general loan loss allowance, a $1,531 decrease in specific loan loss allowance related to impaired loans and a $313 increase in loan loss allowance related to certain loan pools of FDIC covered loans accounted for pursuant to ASC Topic 310-30 (SOP03-3). The changes in the Company’s ALLL components between September 30, 2011 and June 30, 2011 are summarized in the table below.

Note 1: Performing loans purchased from TD Bank subject to a two year put back option commencing on January 20, 2011, such that if any of these loans become 30 days past due or are adversely classified pursuant to bank regulatory guidelines, the Company has the option to put back the loans to TD Bank.
Note 2: Total loans not covered by FDIC loss share agreements.
Note 3: Loans covered by FDIC loss share agreements. Eighty percent of any losses in this portfolio will be reimbursed by the FDIC and recognized as FDIC Indemnification income and included in non interest income within the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations.

Although the general loan loss allowance (non impaired loans) decreased by $8, due to a decrease in overall non impaired loan balance, the allowance as a percentage of non impaired loan balance outstanding increased by 6 bps, from 3.01% to 3.07%, which is a reflection of changes in historical charge off rates, changes in current environmental factors and changes in the loan portfolio mix. Currently, there is no general loan loss allowance associated with the performing loans purchased from TD Bank for the reasons described in note 1 above.

The specific loan loss allowance (impaired loans) is the aggregate of the results of individual analyses prepared for each one of the impaired loans not covered by an FDIC loss sharing agreement on a loan by loan basis. The Company recorded partial charge offs in lieu of specific allowance for a number of the impaired loans during the current quarter, which is the primary reason for the decrease in specific allowance during the current quarter, and for the appearance of low specific reserves on impaired loans overall. The Company’s impaired loans have been written down by $17,425 to $74,680 ($73,941 when the $739 specific allowance is considered) from their legal unpaid principal balance outstanding of $92,105. As such, in the aggregate, our total impaired loans have been written down to approximately 80% of their legal unpaid principal balance.

Any losses in loans covered by FDIC loss share agreements, as described in note 3 above, are reimbursable from the FDIC to the extent of 80% of any losses. These loans are being accounted for pursuant to ASC Topic 310-30. Loan pools in this portfolio are evaluated for impairment each quarter. If a pool is impaired, an allowance for potential loan loss is recorded.


Management believes the Company’s allowance for loan losses was adequate at September 30, 2011. 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 6.27% at September 30, 2011 compared to 6.50% at June 30, 2011.

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 $75,985 at September 30, 2011, compared to $78,029 at June 30, 2011. Non performing assets as a percentage of total assets was 3.53% at September 30, 2011 compared to 3.62% at June 30, 2011. 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 7.56% at September 30, 2011 compared to 7.60% at June 30, 2011.

Note 1: Excludes loans, OREO and other repossessed assets covered by FDIC loss share agreements.
Note 2: We have approximately $16,243 of TDRs. Of this amount $7,131 are performing pursuant to their modified terms, and $9,112 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.


Note 3: Performing loans purchased from TD Bank, N.A. during the first quarter of 2011. The performing loans were selected by CenterState and are subject to a two year put back option. If any loan in this category becomes past due 30 days or is adversely classified pursuant to bank regulatory guidelines, CenterState has the option to put it back to TD Bank, N.A. anytime during a two year period beginning as of the January 20, 2011 purchase date. The Company has not allocated any loan loss allowance to this group of loans.

As shown in the table above, the largest component of non performing assets is non accrual loans. As of September 30, 2011 the Company had reported a total of 302 non accrual loans with an aggregate book value of $61,990 compared to June 30, 2011 when 313 non accrual loans with an aggregate book value of $65,658 was reported. This is reflective of the economy in general and specifically the significantly devalued real estate market in Florida. Non accrual loans at September 30, 2011 are further delineated by collateral category and number of loans in the table below.

The second largest component of non performing assets after non accrual loans is OREO, excluding OREO covered by FDIC loss share agreements. At September 30, 2011, total OREO was $21,695. Of this amount, $9,634 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 provide 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 $12,061 at September 30, 2011. 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 52% of the unpaid legal balance of the related loan when the asset was repossessed. OREO is further delineated 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.
