First National Bankshares of Florida, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Business:
First National Bankshares of Florida, Inc. (the Company) was incorporated under the laws of the state of Florida on August 12, 2003. On January 1, 2004, the Company was spun-off from F.N.B. Corporation (F.N.B.). The Company is a diversified financial services company headquartered in Naples, Florida. The Company owns and operates First National Bank of Florida, (a community bank); Roger Bouchard Insurance, Inc. (an insurance agency); and First National Wealth Management Company (a national trust company). The Company has full-service offices located throughout south and central Florida.
The spin-off resulted in the division of certain existing corporate support functions between the two resulting entities. Corporate expenses included in the Companys financial results for periods prior to the spin-off represent an allocation of F.N.B.s corporate expense to the Companys subsidiaries. This allocation is based on a specific review to identify costs incurred for the benefit of the subsidiaries of the Company and in managements judgment results in a reasonable allocation of such costs. The Company was allocated $8.3 million of overhead costs related to shared administrative and support functions for the nine months ended September 30, 2003.
In connection with the spin-off from F.N.B., the Company incurred approximately $10.5 million in restructuring expenses during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003. These expenses consisted of $5.3 million of early retirement expenses and involuntary separation costs, $4.2 million in professional fees, and approximately $1.0 million in fixed asset write-off and other expenses connected with the separation. On September 30, 2004, a liability associated with the spin-off of approximately $973,000 remained. This liability primarily consists of amounts due to terminated employees under various benefit plans and employment agreements. Continued payments to these terminated employees will be made in accordance with the terms and provisions of such benefit plans and employment agreements.
The consolidated financial statements for periods prior to the effective date of the spin-off included herein may not necessarily be indicative of the results of operations, financial position and cash flows of the Company in the future or had it operated as a separate, independent company during the periods presented.
Basis of Presentation:
The consolidated financial statements include accounts of First National Bank of Florida, Roger Bouchard Insurance, Inc., and First National Wealth Management Company, all of which are wholly-owned by the Company. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. The financial condition and results of operations of acquisitions accounted for as a purchase are included in the Companys financial statements from the date the acquisition is completed. (See the Mergers and Acquisitions section of this report).
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with current year presentation. The reclassification had no impact on total assets, liabilities, stockholders equity, net income or cash flows.
Common Stock Dividend:
On April 19, 2004, the Companys Board of Directors declared a 3 percent common stock dividend payable on July 15, 2004 to shareholders of record as of June 30, 2004. As a result of the stock dividend, the Company issued 1,383,837 shares of its common stock. The stock dividend increased additional paid in capital and decreased retained earnings by $23.9 million, the market value of the shares issued. Per share data included herein have been adjusted to reflect the stock dividend.
5
Use of Estimates:
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Preferred Securities of Unconsolidated Subsidiary Trust:
On March 31, 2004, the Company acquired the common stock of First National Bankshares Statutory Trust II (Issuer Trust), an unconsolidated subsidiary trust. The Issuer Trust used the proceeds from the issuance of $25.0 million of its preferred securities to third-party investors and common stock to acquire a $25.8 million debenture issued by the Company. This debenture and certain capitalized costs associated with the issuance of the preferred stock comprise the Issuer Trusts only assets and the interest payments from the debentures finance the distributions paid on the preferred securities. The Company recorded the debenture in Long-term debt and its equity interest in the business trust in Securities available for sale on the balance sheet. The debenture and preferred securities bear interest at a floating rate equal to the 3-month LIBOR plus 279 basis points.
The Company has entered into agreements which, taken collectively, fully and unconditionally guarantee the preferred securities of the Issuer Trust subject to the terms of the guarantee.
FASB Interpretation No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an Interpretation of ARB No. 51, raised questions about whether trust preferred securities issued by unconsolidated subsidiary trusts could be treated as Tier 1 capital. On July 2, 2003, the Federal Reserve Board issued a letter stating that trust preferred securities will continue to be included in Tier 1 capital until notice is given to the contrary. As such, the debenture issued to the Issuer Trust currently qualifies as Tier I capital under present Federal Reserve Board guidelines.
New Accounting Standards:
In March 2004, the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) reached a consensus on Issue 03-1, The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments. The EITF reached a consensus on an other-than-temporary impairment model for debt and equity securities accounted for under SFAS No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, and cost method investments. The basic model developed to evaluate whether an investment within the scope of Issue 03-1 is other-than-temporarily impaired involves a three-step process including, determining whether an investment is impaired (fair value less than cost), evaluating whether the impairment is other-than-temporary and, if other-than-temporary, requiring recognition of an impairment loss equal to the difference between the investments cost and its fair value. The three-step model used to determine other-than-temporary impairments shall be applied prospectively to all current and future investments in interim or annual reporting periods beginning after June 15, 2004. In October 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FSP 03-1-1, Effective Date of Paragraphs 10-20 of EITF 03-1, The Meaning of Other Than Temporary Impairment, delaying the effective date for the recognition and measurement guidance of EITF 03-1 until certain implementation issues are addressed and a final FSP providing implementation guidance is issued. The final FSP providing implementation guidance is expected to be issued early in December 2004. The required disclosures of EITF 03-1 remain in effect and are provided in the Securities footnote.
6
In March 2004, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued SAB 105, Application of Accounting Principles to Loan Commitments, which provides registrants the SECs view on recording the fair value of loan commitments. Under SAB 105, the fair value of loan commitments that are required to follow derivative accounting under Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, should not consider the expected future cash flows related to the associated servicing of the future loan. The staff believes that incorporating expected future cash flows related to the associated servicing of the loan essentially results in the immediate recognition of a servicing asset, which is only appropriate once the servicing asset has been contractually separated from the underlying loan by sale or by securitization of the loan with servicing retained. The provisions of SAB 105 must be applied to loan commitments accounted for as derivatives that are entered into after March 31, 2004. The application of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Companys financial condition or results of operation.
In December 2003, the FASB issued a revision to FAS 132, Employers Disclosures about Pensions and Other Post-Retirement Benefits. The revision retains the disclosures required by the original standard and requires additional disclosures about the assets, obligations, cash flows and net periodic benefit costs of defined benefit pension and post-retirement plans. In addition, the revised standard requires interim period disclosures of the components of net periodic benefit costs. The required disclosures of the revised standard are provided in the Retirement Plan footnote.
In December 2003, the AICPA issued Statement of Position (SOP) 03-3 Accounting for Certain Loans and Debt Securities Acquired in a Transfer. SOP 03-3 prohibits the carryover of an allowance for loan losses on certain loans acquired in a purchase business combination. Increases in expected cash flows to be collected from the contractual cash flows will be recognized as an adjustment of the loans yield over its remaining life, while decreases in expected cash flows will be recognized as an impairment. This accounting guidance will be effective for loans acquired in fiscal years subsequent to December 15, 2004. The Company does not anticipate this new accounting standard to have a material impact on its financial condition or results of operations.
Mergers and Acquisitions:
On August 1, 2004, the Company signed a definitive agreement and plan of merger which provides for the acquisition of the Company by Fifth Third Bancorp (Fifth Third), an Ohio-based registered financial holding company. Under the terms of the merger agreement, which has been approved by both companies board of directors, each outstanding share of the Companys common stock will be exchanged for 0.5065 shares of Fifth Third common stock in a tax-free reorganization under the Internal Revenue Code. The merger, which is expected to close during the first quarter of 2005, is subject to approval by shareholders of the Company, receipt of certain banking regulatory approvals and satisfaction of certain other conditions. A Special Meeting of the Companys shareholders has been called for November 22, 2004, to consider and approve the merger.
On September 3, 2004, the Company completed its acquisition of Southern Community Bancorp (Southern), a bank holding company located in Orlando, Florida, with assets having a fair value of $1.3 billion. The acquisition of Southern allowed the Company to expand its existing presence in the Orlando market, as well as, enter the West Palm Beach and Daytona Beach markets. On the merger date, the Company issued 1.5047 shares of its common stock for each share of Southern common stock. As a result, the company issued 11.5 million shares of its common stock with a value of $284.3 million and converted the outstanding Southern stock options to the Companys stock options with a fair value of $20.6 million.

The following table depicts the allocation of purchase price to the assets and liabilities of Southern and the resulting goodwill:

$ | 216,069 |
The fair value of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities was based on either the quoted market values or discounting the future cash flows using market rates as of the acquisition date. These adjustments will be amortized or accreted in future periods over the estimated lives of the interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities. The core deposits intangible will be amortized over a ten year period. The Company is currently obtaining third party independent appraisals of the land and buildings. Once finalized, these appraisals will be used to adjust the value of the land and buildings to fair value. The Company incurred merger related costs totaling $4.6 million, which related primarily to employment obligations. On September 30, 2004, a liability associated with the merger of approximately $5.0 million remained. This liability primarily consists of amounts due to terminated employees and service providers under contractual obligations.
Subsequent to the announcement of the merger between the Company and Fifth Third, the Company and Southern executed an amendment to the original merger agreement. Under this amendment, the Company agreed that it would issue additional shares of its common stock after completion of the First National/Southern merger to those persons who were the holders of Southern common stock on the effective date of the merger if (i) the First National/Southern merger is completed at an exchange ratio below 1.6686, and (ii) either the merger agreement between Fifth Third and the Company is terminated prior to August 1, 2005 or the Fifth Third/First National merger has not closed for any reason by that date.
8
If these contingencies occur, then the holders of Southern common stock on the effective date of the First National/Southern merger would be entitled to receive the difference between the number of shares of the Companys common stock that such holder would have received if the exchange ratio had been 1.6686 and the number of shares of the Companys common stock actually issued to such holder based upon the lower exchange ratio in effect at the time of the First National/Southern merger.
On June 30, 2004, the Company signed a definitive agreement to acquire First Bradenton Bank (Bradenton), a state-chartered commercial bank located in Bradenton, Florida. Under the terms of the definitive agreement, the Company will exchange shares of its common stock for the outstanding common stock of Bradenton on a tax-free basis and of Bradenton will merge with and into First National Bank of Florida. Based upon the Companys closing price on September 30, 2004 of $24.55 per share, the transaction has a total value of approximately $9.9 million, representing 2.0 times Bradentons book value. The merger is scheduled to close in the fourth quarter of 2004.
On July 1, 2003, Roger Bouchard Insurance, Inc. completed its acquisition of Lupfer-Frakes, Inc. (Lupfer) an independent insurance agency located in Central Florida. Roger Bouchard Insurance, Inc. paid $10.2 million in exchange for all of the outstanding common stock of Lupfer. The transaction, which was accounted for as a purchase, resulted in the recognition of $8.5 million in goodwill and $1.3 million in customer and renewal lists. The value assigned to the customer and renewal lists will be amortized over a ten-year period. Lupfers results of operations have been reflected in the Companys results beginning in the third quarter of 2003.
On March 31, 2003, F.N.B. completed its acquisition of Charter Banking Corp. (Charter), a bank holding company headquartered in Tampa, Florida, with assets having a fair value of $795.6 million. As a result, Charter became a wholly-owned subsidiary of F.N.B. The acquisition of Charter allowed F.N.B. to access the Hillsborough county market and to expand its presence in the Pinellas county market. Charters only subsidiary was Southern Exchange Bank (SEB). In exchange for all of the outstanding common stock of Charter, F.N.B. paid $150.2 million. F.N.B. funded this acquisition through the issuance of $125.0 million of trust preferred securities and $25.2 million from F.N.Bs existing lines of credit with several major domestic banks. The transaction, which was accounted for as a purchase, resulted in the recognition of approximately $103.0 million in nondeductible goodwill and $1.1 million in core deposits intangible. The core deposits intangible will be amortized over a ten year period. The fair market value assigned to loans, investments, fixed assets, deposits and long-term debt was $169.8 million, $461.5 million, $40.8 million, $481.5 million and $154.5 million, respectively. The fair market value of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities was based on either quoted market values or discounting future cash flows using market rates as of March 31, 2003. These purchase adjustments will be amortized or accreted in future periods over the estimated lives of the interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities. Current third party independent appraisals were used to value the land and buildings included in fixed assets. Merger related costs totaling $1.2 million were incurred in connection with this acquisition, which was related to employment obligations. Charter was merged into F.N.B. Corporation on August 22, 2003.
SEBs results of operations have been reflected in the Companys results since the acquisition date of March 31, 2003. Southern Exchange Bank was merged into First National Bank of Florida on October 10, 2003 as part of an internal reorganization.

The unrealized losses are primarily a result of changes in interest rates and will not prohibit the Company from receiving its contractual interest and principal payments. The Company has the ability and intent to hold these securities for a period necessary to recover the amortized cost.

Commitments, Credit Risk and Contingencies
The Company has commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit which involve certain elements of credit risk in excess of the amount stated in the consolidated balance sheet. The Companys exposure to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the customer is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. Consistent credit policies are used by the Company for both on- and off-balance sheet items.
Following is a summary of off-balance sheet credit risk information (in thousands):

Commitments to extend credit |
$ | 1,327,138 | $ | 717,079 | ||
Standby letters of credit |
42,427 | 34,842 |
At September 30, 2004, funding of approximately 73% of the commitments to extend credit is dependent on the financial condition of the customer. The Company has the ability to withdraw such commitments at its discretion. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. Based on managements credit evaluation of the customer, collateral may be deemed necessary.
13
Collateral requirements vary and may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment and income-producing commercial properties.
Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company which may require payment at a future date. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers.
Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding.
Diluted earnings per common share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding, assuming the exercise of stock options and warrants. Such adjustments to the weighted average number of shares of common stock are made only when such adjustments dilute earnings per share.
On the date of spin-off, F.N.B. stock options held by employees of the Company were converted into stock options of the Company. Since the stock options were converted after year end, it is not possible to estimate the dilutive impact to the Company for periods prior to the distribution. The conversion of the stock options provided the employees with a benefit similar to that provided by the F.N.B. options. Therefore, the dilutive effect of the stock options on the Companys prior periods weighted average shares outstanding is assumed by applying the exchange ratio to the dilutive effect of such stock options of F.N.B. In addition, F.N.B. had convertible preferred stock outstanding until the preferred stock was redeemed in exchange for F.N.B. common stock during the third quarter of 2003. As such, the dilutive effect of F.N.B.s preferred stock on the Companys prior periods weighted average shares outstanding is assumed by applying the exchange ratio to the dilutive effect of such securities of F.N.B.

PART | I. |
ITEM 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
You should read the following discussion in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in this Form 10-Q. This discussion contains forward-looking statements. Please see Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements for a discussion of the uncertainties, risks and assumptions associated with these statements.
Separation from F.N.B. Corporation
We were incorporated under the laws of the State of Florida on August 12, 2003 as a wholly owned subsidiary of F.N.B. Corporation (F.N.B.). On January 1, 2004, we became an independent public company through a tax-free spin-off from F.N.B., with F.N.B. having no continuing ownership interest in us. The consolidated financial statements for periods presented prior to the effective date of the spin-off reflect the historical financial position, results of operations, and cash flows of the businesses transferred to us from F.N.B. prior to the distribution. However, this financial information is not necessarily indicative of what our results of operations or financial position would have been had we operated as an independent company during the periods presented.
In connection with the separation from F.N.B., we incurred approximately $10.5 million in restructuring expenses during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003. These expenses consisted of $5.3 million of early retirement expenses and involuntary separation costs, $4.2 million in professional fees, and approximately $1.0 million in fixed asset write-off and other expenses connected with the separation. On September 30, 2004, a liability associated with the separation of approximately $973,000 remained. This liability primarily consists of amounts due to terminated employees under various benefit plans and employment agreements. Continued payments to these terminated employees will be made in accordance with the terms and provisions of such benefit plans and employment agreements.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our significant accounting policies are described in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements under Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in our 2003 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain policies inherently have a greater reliance on the use of underlying factors, such as estimates, assumptions and judgments. Changes in these underlying factors have a greater possibility of producing results that could be materially different than originally reported and could have a material impact on our future financial condition and results of operations.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2004 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2003
Results of Operations
Net income was $30.6 million for the first nine months of 2004 compared to net income of $27.6 million for the first nine months of 2003. Basic earnings per share were $.63 and $.58 for the first nine months of 2004 and 2003, respectively. Diluted earnings per share were $.61 and $.57 for the first nine months of 2004 and 2003, respectively. Common comparative ratios for results of operations include the return on average assets and the return on average equity. Our annualized return on average assets was .99% for the first nine months of 2004 compared to 1.09% for the first nine months of 2003, while our annualized return on average equity was 10.20% and 9.62% for the same respective periods. Results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 includes Southern Community Bank (Southern) and Lupfer-Frakes Insurance, Inc. (Lupfer), which were acquired on September 3, 2004 and July 1, 2003, respectively.
23
Diluted earnings per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 were reduced by $.05 per share due to after-tax merger expenses of $2.9 million. Diluted earnings per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 were reduced by $.04 per share due to after-tax merger and restructuring expenses of $1.9 million.

Net Interest Income
Net interest income, our primary source of earnings, is the amount by which interest and fees generated by interest earning assets, primarily loans and securities, exceed interest expense on deposits and borrowed funds. Net interest income, on a fully taxable equivalent basis, totaled $104.4 million for the first nine months of 2004, an increase of 12.9% as compared to $92.5 million for the same period 2003. Interest income grew $16.7 million to $141.9 million for the first nine months of 2004 compared to $125.2 million for same period in 2003 as we increased our interest earning assets by $660.1 million. The yield on interest earning assets decreased 43 basis points due to repricing of our interest earning assets and a focus on originating variable and adjustable rate commercial and consumer loans, which were priced lower than existing portfolio yields. Interest expense increased 14.6% to $37.5 million for the first nine months of 2004 compared to $32.7 million for the same period in 2003 as interest bearing liabilities grew $618.7 million, or 24.3%. The impact on interest expense caused by the increase in interest bearing liabilities was mitigated by our ability to effectively manage the interest rate paid. The cost of funds decreased from 1.71% during the nine months ended September 30, 2003 to 1.58% during the nine months ended September 30, 2004. Net interest margin decreased from 4.22% for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 to 3.88% for the nine months ended September 30, 2004. The impact of future rate changes on our net interest income is discussed further under the Liquidity and Interest Rate Sensitivity caption below.
The following table sets forth certain information regarding changes in net interest income attributable to changes in the volumes of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities and changes in the rates for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2003 (in thousands):

The amount of change not solely due to rate or volume changes was allocated between the change due to rate and the change due to volume based on the net size of the rate and volume changes.
For the first nine months of 2004, interest income on loans increased 11.0% from $102.6 million to $113.9 million as average loans increased by $512.3 million. Southerns loan portfolio increased our average loan balances by $63.5 million and interest income by $2.6 million. Interest income on investment securities increased $5.4 million for the first nine months of 2004 as the average balance of investment securities increased $154.6 million.
Interest expense on deposits decreased 1.3% to $27.3 million for the first nine months of 2004 despite a $343.8 million increase in average interest bearing deposits. The decrease in interest expense on deposits was accomplished by a 26 basis point reduction of the rate paid on these deposits. We continued to successfully generate non-interest-bearing deposits as such deposits increased by $98.5 million to $519.5 million for the first nine months of 2004 as compared to the same period in 2003. Interest expense on short-term borrowings increased by $717,000 as the average balance of these borrowings increased $106.3 million for the first nine months of 2004 as compared to the first nine month of 2003. Interest expense on long-term debt increased $4.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 primarily from a $168.5 million increase in average long-term debt. The increase in average long-term debt is a result of additional FHLB borrowings and debt incurred in connection with the spin-off from F.N.B.
Non-Interest Income
Total non-interest income increased 5.1% from $47.7 million for the first nine months of 2003 to $50.1 million for the same period in 2004. Service charges on deposit accounts increased 9.1% to $15.0 million during the first nine months of 2004 from $13.8 million for the same period in 2003. Income from wealth management services increased $735,000, or 14.8%, to $5.7 million for the first nine months of 2004 compared to $5.0 million for the same period in 2003. Insurance commissions and fees increased 19.7% to $23.3 million for the first nine months of 2004 compared to $19.5 million for the same period in 2003. The Lupfer acquisition contributed insurance commissions and fees of $3.2 million in the first nine months of 2004. Gains on the sale of mortgage loans for the first nine months of 2004 decreased 49.8% to $2.5 million as compared to $5.0 million for the same period in 2003. The gains on the sale of mortgage loans generated in 2003 were a direct result of homeowner refinancings driven by mortgage interest rates declining to historical low levels. As mortgage rates increase, we do not anticipate the level of gains experienced in 2003 to continue.
Non-Interest Expense
Total non-interest expense increased $12.3 million to $105.1 million for the first nine months in 2004 compared to $92.8 million for the same period in 2003. During the nine months ended September 30, 2004, we incurred $4.6 million in merger related costs associated with Southern. Total non-interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 include $1.0 million in merger related costs associated with the acquisition of Charter Banking Corp. and $1.9 million in restructuring expenses associated with the spin-off from F.N.B. For the first nine months of 2004, salary and employee benefits increased $3.3 million from $57.0 million for the same period in 2003 to $60.3 million in 2004. The increase is due to increased health care costs and the acquisitions of SEB and Lupfer in 2003. Other non-interest expenses totaled $22.2 million for 2004, a $2.3 million increase from 2003.

Income Taxes
Our income tax expense was $15.0 million for the first nine months of 2004 compared to $13.5 million for the same period in 2003. The 2004 effective tax rate of 32.9% was lower than the 35.0% federal statutory tax rate due to the tax benefits resulting from tax-free interest and dividend income.
Third Quarter of 2004 as Compared to Third Quarter of 2003
Results of Operations
Net income was $8.9 million, or $.17 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2004 compared to net income of $8.3 million, or $.17 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2003. Basic earnings per share were $.17 for both the three months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003. Common comparative ratios for results of operations include the return on average assets and the return on average equity. Our annualized return on average assets and annualized return on average equity were .78% and 7.73%, respectively, for the third quarter of 2004 compared to .89% and 7.33% for the same period in 2003. Diluted earnings per share for three months ended September 30, 2004 were reduced by $.05 due to after-tax merger expenses of $2.9 million. Diluted earnings per share for the three months ended September 30, 2003 were reduced $.03 due to after-tax restructuring expenses of $1.2 million incurred in connection with the spin-off from F.N.B. Results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2004 include Southern, which was acquired on September 3, 2004.
Net Interest Income
Net interest income, on a fully taxable equivalent basis, totaled $37.5 million for the third quarter of 2004, representing an 18.9% increase over the third quarter of 2003. Interest income, on a fully taxable equivalent basis, grew $10.0 million to $52.2 million for the third quarter of 2004 compared to $42.2 million for same period in 2003 as the average balance of our interest earning assets increased by $787.8 million. Interest expense increased $4.1 million to $14.7 million for the third quarter of 2004 compared to $10.6 million for the same period in 2003 as the average balance of our interest bearing liabilities grew $731.2 million. Net interest margin decreased from 3.97% for the three months ended September 30, 2003 to 3.79% for the same period in 2004.
For the third quarter of 2004, interest income on loans increased 23.4% from $34.2 million to $42.2 million as average loans increased by $703.0 million. Interest income on investment securities increased 25.1% to $10.0 million for the third quarter of 2004 as the average balance of investment securities increased $86.8 million to $907.5 million.
Interest expense on deposits increased $1.4 million to $10.2 million for the third quarter of 2004 due to a $387.9 million increase in average interest bearing deposits. Interest expense on long-term debt increased $1.7 million to $3.1 million for the third quarter of 2004 due to a $131.3 million increase in average long-term debt.
Non-Interest Income
Non-interest income increased 3.9% during the third quarter of 2004 to $15.6 million compared to $15.0 million for the same period of 2003. Income from wealth management services was $1.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2004 and for the same period in 2003. Insurance commissions and fees decreased 1.4% to $6.8 million for the third quarter of 2004 from $6.9 million for the same period in 2003. The recent hurricanes in our markets contributed to the reduction in insurance commissions as insurance carriers provided payment relief to those individuals directly affected. For the remainder of the year, we do not anticipate insurance commissions to be at historical
28
levels. In addition, we recorded $1.3 million in contingent revenue under profit sharing agreements with our insurance carriers during 2004. With the recent hurricanes in our markets, it is probable we will not earn any contingent commissions under these profit sharing agreements in 2005. Gains on the sale of mortgage loans increased $446,000 during this same period.
Non-Interest Expense
Non-interest expenses increased $6.2 million during the third quarter of 2004 to $39.2 million compared to $33.0 million for the same period of 2003. Non-interest expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2004 includes $4.6 million of merger expenses associated with the acquisition of Southern. Non-interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2003 includes $1.9 million in restructuring related expenses associated with the spin-off from F.N.B.
Income Taxes
Our income tax expense was $4.2 million for the third quarter of 2004 compared to $3.7 million for the same period in 2003. The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2004 was 31.8%. Our effective tax rate was lower than the 35.0% federal statutory tax rate due to the tax benefits resulting from tax-free interest and dividend income.
Liquidity and Interest Rate Sensitivity
Our goal in liquidity management is to meet the cash flow requirements of depositors and borrowers as well as our operating cash needs, with cost-effective funding. Liquidity is centrally managed on a daily basis by treasury personnel. In addition, our Corporate Asset/Liability Committee (ALCO), which includes members of executive management, reviews liquidity on a periodic basis and approves significant changes in strategies which affect balance sheet or cash flow positions. Our board of directors has established an Asset/Liability Policy in order to achieve and maintain earnings performance consistent with long-term goals while maintaining acceptable levels of interest rate risk, a well-capitalized balance sheet and adequate levels of liquidity. This policy designates the ALCO as the body responsible for meeting this objective.
Liquidity sources from assets include payments from loans and investments as well as the ability to sell loans and investment securities. Liquidity sources from liabilities are generated through growth in deposits and, to a lesser extent, the use of wholesale sources which include federal funds purchased, repurchase agreements and public deposits. In addition, our banking subsidiary has the ability to borrow from the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB). FHLB advances are a competitively priced and reliable source of funds. As of September 30, 2004, outstanding advances were $311.1 million, or 5.7% of total assets, while FHLB availability was $821.4 million, or 14.9% of total assets.
The principal source of cash for the parent company is dividends from its subsidiaries. The parent company has availability to borrow up to $75.0 million through unsecured lines of credit with several major domestic banks. These lines, which were unused as of September 30, 2004, provide the parent company a liquid source of short-term funding.
The ALCO regularly monitors various liquidity ratios and forecasts of cash position. Management believes that we have sufficient liquidity available to meet our normal operating and contingency funding cash needs.
Our financial performance is at risk from interest rate fluctuations. This interest rate risk arises due to differences between the amount of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities subject to repricing over a period of time, the difference between the change in various interest rates and the embedded options in certain
29
financial instruments. We utilize an asset/liability model to measure the impact of our balance sheet strategies. We use net interest income simulations, gap analysis and the economic value of equity to measure interest rate risk.
The following gap analysis measures our interest rate risk by comparing the difference between the amount of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities subject to repricing over a period of time. The ratio of rate sensitive assets to rate sensitive liabilities maturing over a one-year period was 1.21 at September 30, 2004, as compared to 1.38 at December 31, 2003. A ratio of more than one indicates a higher level of repricing assets over repricing liabilities, assuming the current interest rate environment.

Net interest income simulations measure the short-term earnings exposure from changes in market rates of interest in a more rigorous and explicit fashion. Our current financial position is combined with assumptions regarding future business to calculate net interest income under varying hypothetical rate scenarios. The economic value of equity (EVE) measures our long-term earnings exposure from changes in market rates of interest. EVE is defined as the present value of assets minus the present value of liabilities at a point in time. A
30
decrease in EVE due to a specified rate change indicates a decline in the long-term earnings capacity of the balance sheet assuming that the rate change remains in effect over the life of the current balance sheet.
The following table presents an analysis of the potential sensitivity of our annual net interest income and EVE to sudden and sustained changes in market rates:

The balance sheet structure as of September 30, 2004 indicates we are well positioned to realize improvement in earnings from increasing rates over the next twelve months. Loan growth has been concentrated in the form of variable products while funding has been medium term and fixed rate. The balance sheet structure will result in improving next interest income when rates increase with a negative impact on equity in the same scenario. The economic value of equity result in the +200 basis point scenario reflects our assumed shortening of our deposit base and extension of our mortgage related products. The risk of declining rates is acceptable considering the current interest rate term structure and anticipated Federal Reserve Board interest rate movements.
The preceding measures assume no change in asset/liability compositions. Thus, the measures do not reflect actions the ALCO may undertake in response to such changes in interest rates.
The computation of the prospective effects of hypothetical interest changes requires numerous assumptions regarding characteristics of new business and the behavior of existing positions. These business assumptions are based upon our experience, business plans and published industry experience. Key assumptions employed in the model include asset prepayment speeds, the relative price sensitivity of certain assets and liabilities and the expected life of non-maturity deposits. Because these assumptions are inherently uncertain, actual results will differ from simulated results.
Changes in the interest rate environment can cause significant fluctuations in the market value of mortgage loans originated for resale in the secondary market. We utilize forward loan commitments on mortgage loans to offset the risk of decreases in the market values of the loans as a result of increases in interest rates. At September 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, we had $2.2 million and $5.2 million in forward sales agreements, respectively.

We strive to minimize credit losses by utilizing credit approval standards, diversifying our loan portfolio by industry and borrower, and conducting ongoing review and management of the loan portfolio.
During the first nine months of 2004, we grew our loan portfolio in our existing markets by $393.5 million or 16%. The acquisition of Southern contributed $864.5 million in total loans. Our loan portfolio is well-diversified with a significant portion of the portfolio being made up of loans secured by real estate. Residential, commercial and construction loans secured by real estate accounted for 88.8% of the loan portfolio at September 30, 2004.
The loan portfolio consists principally of loans to individuals and small- and medium-sized businesses within our primary market area of south and central Florida. With the forecasted growth in our primary market over the upcoming years, we anticipate organic growth in our loan portfolio to continue at historical levels.
As of September 30, 2004, no concentrations of loans exceeding 10% of total loans existed which were not disclosed as a separate category of loans.
Non-Performing Assets
Non-performing assets include non-performing loans and other real estate owned. Non-performing loans include non-accrual loans and restructured loans. Non-accrual loans represent loans on which interest accruals have been discontinued. It is our policy to discontinue interest accruals when principal or interest is due and has remained unpaid for 90 days or more unless the loan is both well secured and in the process of collection. When a loan is placed on non-accrual status, all unpaid interest is reversed. Payments on non-accrual loans are generally applied to either principal or interest or both, depending on managements evaluation of collectibility. Non-accrual loans may not be restored to accrual status until all delinquent principal and interest has been paid or the loan becomes both well secured and in the process of collection. Consumer installment loans are generally charged off against the allowance for loan losses upon reaching 90 to 180 days past due, depending on the installment loan type. Restructured loans are loans in which the borrower has been granted a concession on the interest rate or the original repayment terms due to financial distress.
Non-performing loans are closely monitored on an ongoing basis as part of our loan review and work-out process. The potential risk of loss on these loans is evaluated by comparing the loan balance to the fair value of any underlying collateral or the present value of projected future cash flows. Losses are recognized where appropriate.

Loans past due 90 days or more, on which interest accruals continue, were $492,000 and $163,000 at September 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively.
All loans as to which information exists about possible credit problems that would cause us to have serious doubts about the borrowers ability to comply with the current terms of the loan have been reflected within the table summarizing non-performing loans and loans past due 90 days or more.
Allowance and Provision for Loan Losses
The allowance for loan losses consists of an allocated and an unallocated component. Managements analysis of the allocated portion of the allowance for loan losses includes the evaluation of the loan portfolio based upon our internal loan grading system, evaluation of portfolio industry concentrations and the historical loss experience of the remaining balances of the various homogeneous loan pools which comprise the loan portfolio. Specific factors used in the internal loan grading system include the previous loan loss experience with the customer, the status of past due interest and principal payments on the loan, the collateral position and residual value of the loan, the quality of financial information supplied by the borrower and the general financial condition of the borrower.
The unallocated portion of the allowance is determined based on managements assessment of historical loss on the remaining portfolio segments in conjunction with the current status of economic conditions, loan loss trends, delinquency and non-accrual trends, credit administration, portfolio growth, concentrations of credit risk and other factors, including regulatory guidance. This determination inherently involves a higher degree of uncertainty, considers current risk factors that may not have yet manifested themselves in our historical loss factors used to determine the allocated component of the allowance, and recognizes that knowledge of the portfolio may be incomplete.
The provision for loan losses charged to operations in each period presented is a direct result of managements assessment of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses at the end of each period. Factors considered in managements assessment include growth in the loan portfolio, changes in the composition of the loan portfolio, concentrations of credit risk, current trends in net charge-offs, trends in non-performing loans and current economic conditions in the markets in which we operate. The provision for loan losses was $2.7 million for the first nine months of 2004 compared with $4.5 million for the same period in 2003. The provision for loan losses totaled $400,000 for the third quarter of 2004, as compared to $952,000 for the third quarter of 2003. Factors considered in the level of the provision during 2004 included the level of non accrual loans, the level of loans charged-off and increased loan concentrations, primarily in commercial real estate loans and the results of our ongoing evaluation of our commercial loan portfolio.
33
Charge-offs reflect the realization of losses in the portfolio that were recognized previously through provisions for credit losses. For the nine months ended September 30, 2004, charge-offs, net of any subsequent recovery, totaled $886,000 compared to $2.2 million for the same period in 2003.
Capital Resources
Capital management is a continuous process. We and our subsidiaries are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. The assessment of capital adequacy depends on a number of factors such as asset quality, liquidity, earnings performance, changing competitive conditions and economic forces. We seek to maintain a strong capital base to support our growth and expansion activities, to provide stability to current operations and to promote public confidence.
Stockholders equity increased through earnings retention by $20.6 million since December 31, 2003. Additionally, the acquisition of Southern increased stockholders equity by $304.9 million. As a result, book value per share increased to $11.57 at September 30, 2004, compared to $7.65 at December 31, 2003.
We have $67.0 million in debentures to an unconsolidated subsidiary trust which qualifies as Tier 1 capital under present Federal Reserve Board guidelines. In addition, our banking subsidiary, First National Bank of Florida, has borrowed $17.0 million under a $20.0 million subordinated loan commitment with a correspondent bank, which qualifies as Tier 2 capital. Additionally, Southern had $13.0 million outstanding in subordinated loans with several correspondent banks which were assumed by FNBFL and also qualify as Tier 2 capital.
