- 2Q 2008 Earnings Per Share of $0.52 (diluted) - Net Interest Margin (tax equivalent) increases to 4.10%
HOUSTON, July 23 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Prosperity Bancshares, Inc.(R) (Nasdaq: PRSP), the parent company of Prosperity Bank(R), reported earnings for the quarter ended June 30, 2008. Net income for the quarter was $23.437 million or $0.52 per diluted common share, an increase in net income of $444,000 or 1.9%, compared with $22.993 million or $0.52 per diluted common share for the same period in the prior year.
Since January 1, 2007, Prosperity has completed the following acquisitions: 1st Choice Bancorp, Inc. on June 1, 2008, Houston branches of Banco Popular North America on January 10, 2008, The Bank of Navasota, N.A. on September 1, 2007 and Texas United Bancshares, Inc. on January 31, 2007. The results of operations for these acquisitions have been included in Prosperity's consolidated financial statements since their respective purchase dates.
"I am proud to report another strong quarter of performance by our bank," said David Zalman, Prosperity's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "While we are certainly not immune to the issues facing the commercial banking industry nationwide, we are pleased with our performance and are cautiously optimistic about the future."
Results of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2008
For the three months ended June 30, 2008, net income was $23.437 million compared with $22.993 million for the same period in 2007. Net income per diluted common share was $0.52 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007. Returns on average assets, average common equity and average tangible common equity for the three months ended June 30, 2008 were 1.43%, 7.96% and 26.93%, respectively. Prosperity's efficiency ratio was 46.17% for the three months ended June 30, 2008.
Net interest income before provision for credit losses for the quarter ended June 30, 2008 increased 5.1% to $53.971 million compared with $51.344 million during the same period in 2007. The increase was attributable primarily to a 5.1% increase in average earning assets. The net interest margin on a tax equivalent basis increased to 4.10% for the three months ended June 30, 2008 compared with 4.09% for the same period in 2007.
Non-interest income decreased 5.6% to $13.066 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008 compared with $13.845 million for the same period in 2007. The decrease was attributable primarily to a $200,000 decrease in gains on the sale of held for sale loans and a $416,000 decrease in trust and investment income, which is a component of other non-interest income. Prosperity discontinued the origination of mortgage loans for sale, which was part of the mortgage banking activities of Texas United Bancshares, Inc. (TXUI), in the fourth quarter 2007 and does not expect to have significant gains and losses from this activity going forward. The decrease in trust and investment income was due to the dissolution in the second quarter of 2007 of the trust department acquired in the TXUI acquisition. Linked quarter non-interest income increased 3.1% primarily due to an increase in service charges on deposit accounts related to the 1st Choice acquisition.
Non-interest expense increased $788,000 or 2.6% to $30.860 million for the second quarter of 2008 compared with $30.072 million for the second quarter of 2007. The increase was attributable primarily to the increased operating costs associated with the additional banking centers acquired as a part of the three acquisitions completed since July 2007. Linked quarter non-interest expense increased 6.0% primarily due to the 1st Choice acquisition and increases in annual salaries and benefits and professional fees.
Loans at June 30, 2008 were $3.313 billion, an increase of $132.152 million, or 4.2%, compared with $3.181 billion at June 30, 2007. Linked quarter loans increased 4.8% or $151.701 million, with loans increasing from $3.162 billion at March 31, 2008. As reflected in the table below, linked quarter loan growth for the second quarter of 2008 was impacted by the loans acquired as a part of the acquisitions of The Bank of Navasota, the Banco Popular Houston branches and 1st Choice. Excluding the loans acquired as a part of those acquisitions, linked quarter loans decreased 1.0%
Deposits at June 30, 2008 were $5.297 billion, an increase of $520.252 million or 10.9%, compared with $4.776 billion at June 30, 2007. Linked quarter deposits increased 7.0% from $4.949 billion at March 31, 2008. As reflected in the table below, linked quarter deposits for the second quarter of 2008 were impacted by the deposits assumed as a part of the acquisitions of Navsasota, the Banco Popular Houston branches and 1st Choice. Excluding deposits assumed as a part of those acquisitions, linked quarter deposits increased 1.0%.

The provision for credit losses was $1.000 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008, $320,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and $1.167 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008. In making its evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses, management considers factors such as historical loan loss experience, industry diversification of Prosperity's commercial loan portfolio, the amount of nonperforming assets and related collateral, the volume, growth and composition of Prosperity's loan portfolio, current economic changes that may affect the borrower's ability to pay and the value of collateral, the evaluation of Prosperity's loan portfolio through its internal loan review process and other relevant factors.
Non-performing assets totaled $11.651 million or 0.22% of average earning assets at June 30, 2008 compared with $11.193 million or 0.22% of average earning assets at June 30, 2007 and $17.554 million or 0.33% of average earnings assets at March 31, 2008. At June 30, 2008, the allowance for credit losses was 1.03% of total loans, compared with 1.14% at June 30, 2007 and 1.01% of total loans at March 31, 2008.
Prosperity owns Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac preferred stock with a par value of $24 million. In the fourth quarter of 2007, the net book value of the preferred stock was reduced to it's December 31, 2007 market value of $14.025 million, or 0.21% of total assets at June 30, 2008, due to an other-than- temporary impairment charge of $9.975 million. The market value of the Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac preferred stock was $11.769 million as of June 30, 2008, or 0.17% of total assets, resulting in an unrealized loss of $2.256 million as of June 30, 2008 and a $1.466 million reduction in equity through other comprehensive income as of the same date.
At June 30, 2008, Prosperity had $6.794 billion in total assets, $3.313 billion in loans, $5.297 billion in deposits, and approximately 336,000 deposit and loan accounts.

Results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2008
For the six months ended June 30, 2008, net income was $46.375 million compared with $43.222 million for the same period in 2007. Net income per diluted common share was $1.04 for the six months ended June 30, 2008 compared with $1.02 for the same period in 2007. Returns on average assets, average common equity and average tangible common equity for the six months ended June 30, 2008 were 1.43%, 7.99% and 27.01%, respectively. Prosperity's efficiency ratio was 45.62% for the six months ended June 30, 2008.

Non-interest income increased $229,000 or 0.9% to $25.745 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 compared with $25.516 million for the same period in 2007. The increase was attributable primarily to the increased customer service charges associated with the additional banking centers acquired as a part of the four acquisitions completed since January 2007, partially offset by a decrease in gain on sale of held for sale loans and trust and investment income.
Non-interest expense increased $2.637 million or 4.6% to $59.980 million for the first six months of 2008 compared with $57.343 million the same period in 2007.
