Loan and Lease Quality and Provision for Loan and Lease Losses

Past due loans as a percentage of total loans has improved to 0.86% at December 31, 2010, as compared with 0.89% at December 31, 2009.   Nonperforming loans increased slightly to $44.8 million or 1.24% of total loans and leases at December 31, 2010 compared with $41.3 million or 1.13% at December 31, 2009, primarily due to one large commercial credit of approximately $2.7 million.

Net charge-offs for the year ended December 31, 2010 were $25.1 million compared to $25.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2009.  Net charge-offs to average loans and leases for the year ended December 31, 2010 was 0.69%, a slight improvement from 0.70% for the year ended December 31, 2009.  Net charge-offs for the three months ended December 31, 2010 were $7.3 million compared to $6.7 million for the same period in 2009.  The annualized net charge-off ratio for the three months ended December 31, 2010 was 0.81% compared to 0.74% for the three months ended December 31, 2009.  The primary driver for this increase was the charge-off of one large commercial credit of approximately $1.2 million which was previously fully provided for in the quarter ending September 30, 2010.

The allowance for loan and lease losses totaled $71.2 million at December 31, 2010 as compared with $66.6 million at December 31, 2009.  The allowance for loan and lease losses as a percentage of loans and leases was 1.97% at December 31, 2010 as compared to 1.83% at December 31, 2009.  The increase in the allowance for loan and lease losses is primarily due to an increase in the general allocation of the allowance for loan and lease losses relative to certain portfolios, including commercial, residential and home equity loans.

The Company recorded a provision for loan and lease losses of $29.8 million during the year ended December 31, 2010, as compared with $33.4 million during the year ended December 31, 2009.  The Company recorded a provision for loan and lease losses of $6.7 million during the fourth quarter of 2010 compared with $8.6 million during the fourth quarter of 2009.  The decrease in total provision is due to ongoing modeling of the required levels of reserves which considers historical charge-offs, loan growth and economic trends.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income was up 3.1% to $202.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 compared with $196.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2009.  The Company’s FTE net interest margin was 4.15% for the year ended December 31, 2010, as compared with 4.04% for the year ended December 31, 2009.  The Company has chosen to maintain its excess liquidity position in 2010 as a result of the unfavorable interest rate environment.  As a result of this excess liquidity, our Federal Funds sold position had a net negative impact of approximately 5 bp on our net interest margin for the year ended December 31, 2010 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2009.

The yield on interest earning assets decreased 37 bp for the year ended December 31, 2010 as compared with the year ended December 31, 2009, primarily due to decreases in the yields on securities available for sale and loans and leases.  The yield on securities available for sale was 3.56% for the year ended December 31, 2010, as compared with 4.47% for the year ended December 31, 2009, while the yield on loans and leases was 5.90% for the year ended December 31, 2010, as compared with 6.07% for the year ended December 31, 2009.  The rate on interest bearing liabilities declined 53 bp for the year ended December 31, 2010 as compared with the year ended December 31, 2009, primarily due to decreases in the rate on interest bearing deposits.  The rate on time deposits was 2.06% for the year ended December 31, 2010, as compared with 2.64% for the year ended December 31, 2009.  The rate on money market deposit accounts was 0.57% for the year ended December 31, 2010, as compared with 1.20% for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Net interest income was down slightly to $50.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2010 compared with $51.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2009.  The Company’s FTE net interest margin was 4.09% for the three months ended December 31, 2010, as compared with 4.15% for the three months ended December 31, 2009.  As a result of the Company’s excess liquidity, our Federal Funds sold position had a net negative impact of approximately 2 bp on our net interest margin for the three months ended December 31, 2010 as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2009.

The yield on interest earning assets decreased 40 bp for the three months ended December 31, 2010 as compared with the three months ended December 31, 2009, primarily due to decreases in the yields on securities available for sale and loans and leases.  The yield on securities available for sale was 3.05% for the three months ended December 31, 2010, as compared with 4.07% for the three months ended December 31, 2009, while the yield on loans and leases was 5.85% for the three months ended December 31, 2010, as compared with 6.07% for the three months ended December 31, 2009.  The rate on interest bearing liabilities declined 38 bp for the three months ended December 31, 2010 as compared with the three months ended December 31, 2009, primarily due to decreases in the rate on interest bearing deposits.  The rate on time deposits was 1.94% for the three months ended December 31, 2010, as compared with 2.23% for the three months ended December 31, 2009.  The rate on money market deposit accounts was 0.44% for the three months ended December 31, 2010, as compared with 0.88% for the three months ended December 31, 2009.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income for the year ended December 31, 2010 was $83.9 million, up $3.8 million or 4.7% from $80.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2009.  The increase in noninterest income was due primarily to an increase in net securities gains of approximately $3.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2009 due primarily to the sale of two equity positions and certain collateralized mortgage obligations (“CMO’s”) during 2010.  In addition, the Company experienced an increase in retirement plan administration fees of approximately $1.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 as compared with the year ended December 31, 2009 as a result of organic growth and increased asset values from improved market conditions.  Insurance and other financial services revenue increased approximately $1.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2009, due primarily to new business and expansion into new markets within our footprint.  Trust revenue increased approximately $1.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2009 due primarily to an increase in fair market value of trust assets under administration.  These increases were partially offset by a decrease in service charges on deposit accounts of approximately $3.1 million as a result of a decrease in overdraft activity due to changes in consumer behavior caused by economic conditions as well as the effects of implementing new regulations regarding overdraft fees.

Noninterest income for the three months ended December 31, 2010 was $22.2 million, up $2.4 million or 12.0% from $19.8 million for the same period in 2009.  Net securities gains increased approximately $2.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2010 as compared to the same period in 2009.  This increase was due primarily to the sale of one equity position and certain CMO’s in the three months ending December 31, 2010.  Slight increases in ATM and debit card fees and insurance and other financial services revenue also contributed to the increase in noninterest income.  These increases were offset by a decrease in service charges on deposit accounts of approximately $1.2 million, or 16.9%, for the three months ended December 31, 2010 as compared with the same period in 2009.  The decrease in service charges was the result of the aforementioned decrease in overdraft activity due to changes in consumer behavior caused by economic conditions as well as the effects of implementing new regulations regarding overdraft fees.

Noninterest Expense and Income Tax Expense

Noninterest expense for the year ended December 31, 2010 was $178.3 million, up from $170.6 million, or 4.5%, for the year ended December 31, 2009.  Salaries and employee benefits increased $8.2 million, or 9.5%, for the year ended December 31, 2010 compared with the year ended December 31, 2009.  This increase was due primarily to increases in full-time-equivalent employees (primarily driven by market expansions), merit increases, employee benefits, and incentive compensation.  In addition, the Company incurred debt prepayment penalties totaling $4.5 million to pay off long-term debt during the year ended December 31, 2010, as compared with prepayment penalties totaling $0.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2009.  The debt prepayments in 2010 benefited interest expense by approximately $1.0 million in 2010, with future benefits expected in 2011 and 2012.  These increases were partially offset by a decrease in FDIC expenses of approximately $2.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2010, as compared with the year ended December 31, 2009.  This decrease resulted from the special assessment levied by the FDIC in the second quarter of 2009.  In addition, professional fees and outside services decreased by $1.5 million, or 14.0%, for the year ended December 31, 2010 as compared with the year ended December 31, 2009.  This decrease was due primarily to nonrecurring legal fees incurred during 2009 related to de novo branch activity as well as non-recurring systems consulting services incurred in 2009.  Income tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2010 was $20.9 million, up slightly from $20.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2009.  The effective tax rate was 26.7% for the year ended December 31, 2010, as compared to 28.4% for the year ended December 31, 2009.  This decrease in the effective tax rate is primarily the result of an amendment to New York State tax law to conform to the bad debt treatment afforded under Federal law, which resulted in a reduction to tax expense of $0.6 million, as well as a favorable New York State audit settlement, which resulted in a reduction to tax expense of $0.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2010.

Noninterest expense for the three months ended December 31, 2010 was $47.3 million, up from $45.3 million, or 4.3%, for the same period in 2009.  The Company incurred debt prepayment penalties totaling $3.3 million to pay off long-term debt during the fourth quarter of 2010, as compared to prepayment penalties totaling $0.8 million for the same period in 2009.  Salaries and employee benefits, occupancy, and loan collection expenses were up slightly for the three months ended December 31, 2010 as compared to the same period in 2009.  These increases were partially offset by a decrease in other operating expenses of approximately $1.0 million for the three month period ended December 31, 2010, as compared with the three months ended December 31, 2009.  This decrease resulted primarily from a termination fee associated with the early termination of a vendor contract in the fourth quarter of 2009.  Income tax expense for the three month period ended December 31, 2010 was $4.4 million, up from $3.7 million for the same period in 2009.  The effective tax rate was 23.2% for the three months ended December 31, 2010, as compared to 21.3% for the same period in 2009.

Balance Sheet

Total assets were $5.3 billion at December 31, 2010, down $125.2 million or 2.3% from December 31, 2009.  Loans and leases were $3.6 billion at December 31, 2010, down $35.4 million from December 31, 2009.  Total deposits were $4.1 billion at December 31, 2010, up $41.3 million from December 31, 2009.  Stockholders’ equity was $533.6 million, representing a total equity-to-total assets ratio of 9.99% at December 31, 2010, compared with $505.1 million or a total equity-to-total assets ratio of 9.24% at December 31, 2009.
