The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. These estimates and assumptions also impact reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. A summary of the significant accounting policies to assist the reader in understanding the financial presentation is listed in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010.

Interest-bearing Due From Banks

Amounts due from the Federal Reserve Bank, which are interest-bearing for all periods presented, and amounts due from certificates of deposits held at other financial institutions are included in interest-bearing due from banks. The amount due from the Federal Reserve Bank totaled $1,870.2 million and $420.3 million at March 31, 2011 and March 31, 2010, respectively, and is considered cash and cash equivalents. The amounts due from certificates of deposit totaled $142.8 million and $304.1 million at March 31, 2011 and March 31, 2010, respectively.

This table provides a summary of cash and cash equivalents as presented on the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows as of March 31, 2011 and March 31, 2010 (in thousands):

3. New Accounting Pronouncements

Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2010-06, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (ASU 2010-06), which amends ASC 820, adding new requirements for disclosures for Levels 1 and 2, separate disclosures of purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements relating to Level 3 measurements and clarification of existing fair value disclosures. ASU 2010-06 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the requirement to provide Level 3 activity of purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements on a gross basis, which was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010. The Company adopted the provisions related to Level 1 and 2 disclosures on January 1, 2010 and adopted the provisions related to Level 3 disclosures on January 1, 2011 with no impact on its financial position or results of operations except for additional financial statement disclosures.

Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses In July 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-20, “Disclosures About the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses” (ASU 2010-20), which amends ASC 310 by requiring more robust and disaggregated disclosures about the credit quality of an entity’s financial receivables and its allowance for credit losses. ASU 2010-20 was effective for the Company for the annual reporting period ended December 31, 2010. The Company adopted this statement on December 31, 2010 with no impact on its financial position or results of operations except for additional financial statement disclosures. In January 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-01, “Deferral of the Effective Date of Disclosures About Troubled Debt Restructurings in Update No. 2010-20”, which temporarily defers the effective date in ASU 2010-20 for disclosures about TDRs by creditors until the FASB finalizes its project on determining what constitutes a TDR for a creditor.

4. Loans and Allowance for Loan Losses

Loan Origination/Risk Management

The Company has certain lending policies and procedures in place that are designed to minimize the level of risk within the loan portfolio. Diversification of the loan portfolio manages the risk associated with fluctuations in economic conditions. The Company maintains an independent loan review department that reviews and validates the credit risk program on a continual basis. Management regularly evaluates the results of the loan reviews. The loan review process complements and reinforces the risk identification and assessment decisions made by lenders and credit personnel, as well as the Company’s policies and procedures.

Commercial loans are underwritten after evaluating and understanding the borrower’s ability to operate profitably and prudently expand its business. Commercial loans are made based on the identified cash flows of the borrower and on the underlying collateral provided by the borrower. The cash flows of the borrower, however, may not be as expected and the collateral securing these loans may fluctuate in value. Most commercial loans are secured by the assets being financed or other business assets such as accounts receivable or inventory and may incorporate a personal guarantee. In the case of loans secured by accounts receivable, the availability of funds for the repayment of these loans may be substantially dependent on the ability of the borrower to collect amounts from its customers. Commercial credit cards are generally unsecured and are underwritten with criteria similar to commercial loans including an analysis of the borrower’s cash flow, available business capital, and overall credit-worthiness of the borrower.

Commercial real estate loans are subject to underwriting standards and processes similar to commercial loans, in addition to those of real estate loans. These loans are viewed primarily as cash flow loans and secondarily as loans secured by real estate. Commercial real estate lending typically involves higher loan principal amounts and the repayment of these loans is largely dependent on the successful operation of the property securing the loan or the business conducted on the property securing the loan. The Company requires an appraisal of the collateral be made at origination, on an as-needed basis, in conformity with current market conditions and regulatory requirements. The underwriting standards address both owner and non-owner occupied real estate.

Construction loans are underwritten using feasibility studies, independent appraisal reviews, sensitivity analysis or absorption and lease rates and financial analysis of the developers and property owners. Construction loans are based upon estimates of costs and value associated with the complete project. Construction loans often involve the disbursement of substantial funds with repayment substantially dependent on the success of the ultimate project. Sources of repayment for these types of loans may be pre-committed permanent loans from approved long-term borrowers, sales of developed property or an interim loan commitment from the Company until permanent financing is obtained. These loans are closely monitored by on-site inspections and are considered to have higher risks than other real estate loans due to their repayment being sensitive to interest rate changes, governmental regulation of real property, economic conditions and the availability of long-term financing.

Underwriting standards for residential real estate and home equity loans are based on the borrower’s loan-to-value percentage, collection remedies, and overall credit history.

Consumer loans are underwritten based on the borrower’s repayment ability. The Company monitors delinquencies on all of its consumer loans and leases and periodically reviews the distribution of FICO scores relative to historical periods to monitor credit risk on its credit card loans. The underwriting and review practices, combined with the relatively small loan amounts that are spread across many individual borrowers, minimizes risk. Consumer loans and leases that are 90 days past due or more are considered non-performing.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (CONTINUED)

FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2011 (UNAUDITED)

 

The Company has ceased the recognition of interest on loans with a carrying value of $19.1 million and $24.9 million at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. Restructured loans totaled $0.1 million and $0.2 million at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. Loans 90 days past due and still accruing interest amounted to $7.3 million and $5.5 million at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. There was an insignificant amount of interest recognized on impaired loans during 2011 and 2010.

Credit Quality Indicators

As part of the on-going monitoring of the credit quality of the Company’s loan portfolio, management tracks certain credit quality indicators including trends related to the risk grading of specified classes of loans, net charge-offs, non-performing loans, and general economic conditions.

The Company utilizes a risk grading matrix to assign a rating to each of its commercial, commercial real estate, and construction real estate loans. The loan rankings are summarized into the following categories: Non-watch list, Watch, Special Mention, and Substandard. Any loan not classified in one of the categories described below is considered to be a Non-watch list loan. A description of the general characteristics of the loan ranking categories is as follows:

 

   

Watch – This rating represents credit exposure that presents higher than average risk and warrants greater than routine attention by Company personnel due to conditions affecting the borrower, the borrower’s industry or the economic environment. These conditions have resulted in some degree of uncertainty that results in higher than average credit risk.

 

   

Special Mention – This rating reflects a potential weakness that deserves management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the asset or the institution’s credit position at some future date. The rating is not adversely classified and does not expose an institution to sufficient risk to warrant adverse classification.

 

   

Substandard – This rating represents an asset inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the borrower or of the collateral pledged, if any. Assets so classified must have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. Loans in this category are characterized by the distinct possibility that the bank will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Loss potential, while existing in the aggregate amount of substandard assets, does not have to exist in individual assets classified substandard. This category may include loans where the collection of full principal is doubtful or remote.

All other classes of loans are generally evaluated and monitored based on payment activity. Non-performing loans include restructured loans, impaired loans, and loans greater than 90 days past due.

Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses is a reserve established through a provision for loan losses charged to expense, which represents management’s judgment of losses within the Company’s loan portfolio as of the balance sheet date. The allowance is necessary to reserve for estimated loan losses and risks inherent in the loan portfolio. Accordingly, the methodology is based on historical loss trends. The Company’s process for determining the appropriate level of the allowance for loan losses is designed to account for credit deterioration as it occurs. The provision for possible loan losses reflects loan quality trends, including the levels of and trends related to non-accrual loans, past due loans, potential problem loans, criticized loans and net charge-offs or recoveries, among other factors.

The level of the allowance reflects management’s continuing evaluation of industry concentrations, specific credit risks, loan loss experience, current loan portfolio quality, present economic, political and regulatory conditions and unidentified losses inherent in the current loan portfolio. Portions of the allowance may be allocated for specific loans; however, the entire allowance is available for any loan that, in management’s judgment, should be charged off. While management utilizes its best judgment and information available, the adequacy of the allowance is dependent upon a variety of factors beyond the Company’s control, including, among other things, the performance of the Company’s loan portfolio, the economy, changes in interest rates and the view of the regulatory authorities toward loan classifications.

The Company’s allowance for loan losses consists of specific valuation allowances and general valuation allowances based on historical loan loss experience for similar loans with similar characteristics and trends, general economic conditions and other qualitative risk factors both internal and external to the Company.

The allowances established for probable losses on specific loans are based on a regular analysis and evaluation of problem loans. Loans are classified based on an internal risk grading process that evaluates the obligor’s ability to repay, the underlying collateral, if any, and the economic environment and industry in which the borrower operates. When a loan is considered impaired, the loan is analyzed to determine the need, if any, to specifically allocate a portion of the allowance for loan losses to the loan. Specific valuation allowances are determined by analyzing the borrower’s ability to repay amounts owed, collateral deficiencies, the relative risk ranking of the loan and economic conditions affecting the borrower’s industry.

General valuation allowances are calculated based on the historical loss experience of specific types of loans including an evaluation of the time span and volume of the actual charge-off. The Company calculates historical loss ratios for pools of similar loans with similar characteristics based on the proportion of actual charge-offs experienced to the total population of loans in the pool. The historical loss ratios are updated based on actual charge-off experience. A valuation allowance is established for each pool of similar loans based upon the product of the historical loss ratio, time span to charge-off, and the total dollar amount of the loans in the pool. The Company’s pools of similar loans include similarly risk-graded groups of commercial loans, commercial real estate loans, commercial credit card, home equity loans, consumer real estate loans and consumer and other loans. The Company also considers a loan migration analysis for criticized loans. This analysis includes an assessment of the probability that a loan will move to a loss position based on its criticized category. In addition, a portion of the allowance is determined by a review of qualitative factors by Management.

There were no sales of securities held to maturity during the first three months of 2011 and 2010.

Securities available for sale and held to maturity with a market value of $3.8 billion at March 31, 2011, and $4.6 billion at December 31, 2010, were pledged to secure U.S. Government deposits, other public deposits and certain Trust deposits as required by law.

The following table shows the Company’s available for sale investments’ gross unrealized losses and fair value, aggregated by investment category and length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position, at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 (in thousands).

The unrealized losses in the Company’s investments in direct obligations of U.S. treasury obligations, U.S. government agencies, federal agency mortgage-backed securities, and municipal securities were caused by changes in interest rates. Because the Company does not have the intent to sell these securities, it is more likely than not that the Company will not be required to sell these securities before a recovery of fair value. The Company expects to recover its cost basis in the securities and does not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at March 31, 2011.

8. Commitments, Contingencies and Guarantees

In the normal course of business, the Company is party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in order to meet the financing needs of its customers and to reduce its own exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit, commercial letters of credit, standby letters of credit, futures contracts, forward foreign exchange contracts and spot foreign exchange contracts. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the consolidated balance sheet. The contract or notional amount of those instruments reflects the extent of involvement the Company has in particular classes of financial instruments. Many of the commitments expire without being drawn upon, therefore, the total amount of these commitments does not necessarily represent the future cash requirements of the Company.

The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the counterparty to the financial instruments for commitments to extend credit, commercial letters of credit, and standby letters of credit is represented by the contract or notional amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments.

The following table summarizes the Company’s off-balance sheet financial instruments.

(the “Bank”) in Missouri state court. The first suit was made by a customer alleging that the Bank’s checking account posting practices resulted in excessive overdraft fees in violation of Missouri’s consumer protection statute and the account agreement. The suit seeks class-action status for Bank customers who may have been similarly affected. The Bank removed this action to the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Missouri. This action was then transferred to the multidistrict litigation in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida, where similar claims against other financial institutions are pending. A second suit was filed in Missouri state court by another Bank customer alleging the substantially identical facts and also seeking class action status. During the first quarter of 2011, a third suit was filed in the U.S. District Court of Oklahoma by another bank customer alleging similar facts and also seeking class action status. At this early stage of the litigation, it is not possible for management of the Bank to determine the probability of a material adverse outcome or reasonably estimate the amount of any potential loss.

9. Business Segment Reporting

The Company has strategically aligned its operations into the following three reportable segments (collectively, “Business Segments”): Commercial Financial Services, Institutional Financial Services, and Personal Financial Services. The management accounting system assigns balance sheet and income statement items to each business segment using methodologies that are refined on an ongoing basis. For comparability purposes, amounts in all periods are based on methodologies in effect at March 31, 2011.

The following summaries provide information about the activities of each segment:

Commercial Financial Services serves the commercial lending and leasing, capital markets, and treasury management needs of the Company’s mid-market businesses and governmental entities by offering various products and services. Such services include commercial loans, letters of credit, loan syndication services, consultative services, and a variety of financial options for companies that need non-traditional banking services. Capital markets services include asset-based financing, asset securitization, equity and mezzanine financing, factoring, private and public placement of senior debt, as well as merger and acquisition consulting. Treasury management services include depository services, account reconciliation services, electronic fund transfer services, controlled disbursements, lockbox services, and remote deposit capture services.

Institutional Financial Services is a combination of Banking Services, Fund Services, and Asset Management services provided to institutional clients. This segment also includes consumer credit card services, and commercial credit card. Healthcare services, mutual fund cash management and international payments, previously included in Payment and Technology Solutions, are also included in this segment. Institutional Financial Services includes businesses such as the Company’s institutional investment services functions, Scout Investment Advisors, UMB Fund Services, corporate trust and escrow services as well as correspondent banking, investment banking, and UMB Healthcare Services.

10. Fair Value Measurements

The following table presents information about the Company’s assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2011, and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques utilized by the Company to determine such fair value.

Fair values determined by Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the Company has the ability to access. Fair values determined by Level 2 inputs utilize inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the hierarchy. In such cases, the fair value is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

Assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2011 (in thousands):

The fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities, including those financial assets and financial liabilities that are not measured and reported at fair value on a recurring basis or non-recurring basis is required to be disclosed. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments:

Cash and Short-Term Investments The carrying amounts of cash and due from banks, federal funds sold and resell agreements are reasonable estimates of their fair values.

Securities Available for Sale Fair values are based on quoted market prices or dealer quotes, if available. If a quoted market price is not available, fair value is estimated using quoted market prices for similar securities.

Trading Securities Fair values for trading securities (including financial futures), are based on quoted market prices where available. If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on quoted market prices for similar securities.

Loans Fair values are estimated for portfolios with similar financial characteristics. Loans are segregated by type, such as commercial, real estate, consumer, and credit card. Each loan category is further segmented into fixed and variable interest rate categories. The fair value of loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit rating and for the same remaining maturities.

Deposit Liabilities The fair value of demand deposits and savings accounts is the amount payable on demand at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010. The fair value of fixed-maturity certificates of deposit is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the rates that are currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.

Short-Term Debt The carrying amounts of federal funds purchased, repurchase agreements and other short-term debt are reasonable estimates of their fair value because of the short-term nature of their maturities.

Long-Term Debt Rates currently available to the Company for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities are used to estimate fair value of existing debt.

Other Off-Balance Sheet Instruments The fair value of loan commitments and letters of credit are determined based on the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreement and the present creditworthiness of the counterparties. Neither the fees earned during the year on these instruments nor their fair values at March 31, 2011 are significant to the Company’s consolidated financial position.

Assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis as of March 31, 2011 (in thousands):

Valuation methods for instruments measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments measured on a non-recurring basis:

Impaired loans While the overall loan portfolio is not carried at fair value, adjustments are recorded on certain loans to reflect partial write-downs that are based on the value of the underlying collateral. In determining the value of real estate collateral, the Company relies on external appraisals and assessment of property values by its internal staff. In the case of non-real estate collateral, reliance is placed on a variety of sources, including external estimates of value and judgments based on the experience and expertise of internal specialists. Because many of these inputs are not observable, the measurements are classified as Level 3.

Other real estate owned Other real estate owned consists of loan collateral which has been repossessed through foreclosure. This collateral is comprised of commercial and residential real estate and other non-real estate property, including auto, recreational and marine vehicles. Other real estate owned is recorded as held for sale initially at the lower of the loan balance or fair value of the collateral. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are updated periodically, and the assets may be marked down further, reflecting a new cost basis. Fair value measurements may be based upon appraisals or third-party price opinions and, accordingly, those measurements may be classified as Level 2. Other fair value measurements may be based on internally developed pricing methods, and those measurements may be classified as Level 3.

Overview

The Company focuses on the following four core strategies. Management believes these strategies will continue to improve net income and strengthen the balance sheet.

The first strategy is to grow the Company’s fee-based businesses. The emphasis on fee-based operations helps reduce the Company’s exposure to changes in interest rates. During the first quarter of 2011, noninterest income increased $21.3 million, or 24.7 percent, compared to the same period of 2010. The Company continues to emphasize its asset management, brokerage, bankcard services, health care services, and treasury management businesses. In particular, during the first quarter of 2011, the increase in noninterest income is primarily attributable to increased trust and securities processing income of $16.2 million, or 45.4 percent, for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the same period in 2010. The increase in trust and securities processing income was primarily due to a $4.7 million, or 45.1 percent, increase in advisory fee income from the Scout Funds, a $2.4 million, or 15.8 percent, increase in fund administration and custody services, and a $7.0 million, or 631.1 percent, increase in fees related to institutional and personal investment management services. Bankcard fees increased $2.4 million, or 20.1 percent, compared to the first quarter of 2010 from increased processing fee income. Also during the first quarter of 2011, the Company sold securities available for sale at a pre-tax gain of $7.5 million compared to $5.4 million during the same period in 2010.

The second strategy is a focus on net interest income through loan and deposit growth. Net interest income increased $2.7 million, or 3.5 percent, for the three months ended March 31, 2011, as compared to one year ago. Total deposits increased $2.2 billion, or 26.2 percent, as compared to first quarter of 2010, which positions the Company well to fund customer credit needs when the demand for loans returns. This increase in deposits funded an increase in earning assets. Average earning assets increased by $1.4 billion, or 14.3 percent, compared to the first quarter of 2010. This earning asset growth was represented by an increase of $268.2 million, or 6.1 percent, in average total loans and a $914.8 million, or 19.2 percent, increase in average total securities, including trading.

The third strategy is a focus on improving operating efficiencies. At March 31, 2011, the Company had 128 branches. The Company continues to emphasize increasing its primary retail customer base by providing a broad offering of services through our existing branch network. These efforts have resulted in the total deposits growth previously discussed. Throughout 2010, the Company invested in technological advances that will help management drive operating efficiencies through improved data analysis and automation. On January 3, 2011, the Company has converted to a new financial and human resource software that is integrated and enterprise wide. In addition to the use of automation technology, the Company will continue to evaluate its cost structure for opportunities to moderate expense growth without sacrificing growth initiatives.

The fourth strategy is a focus on capital management. The Company places a significant emphasis on the maintenance of a strong capital position, which management believes promotes investor confidence, provides access to funding sources under favorable terms, and enhances the Company’s ability to capitalize on business growth and acquisition opportunities. The Company continues to maximize shareholder value through a mix of reinvesting in organic growth, investing in acquisitions, evaluating increased dividends over time and utilizing a share buy-back strategy when appropriate. At March 31, 2011, the Company had $1.1 billion in total shareholders’ equity. This is an increase of $49.5 million, or 4.8 percent, compared to total shareholders’ equity at March 31, 2010. At March 31, 2011, the Company had a total risk-based capital ratio of 12.68 percent, which is higher than the 10 percent regulatory minimum to be considered well-capitalized. The Company repurchased 33,337 shares at an average price of $41.17 per share during the first quarter of 2011.

Earnings Summary

The Company recorded consolidated net income of $30.9 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2011, compared to $26.2 million for the same period a year earlier. This represents a 17.9 percent increase over the three-month period ended March 31, 2010. Basic earnings per share for the first quarter of 2011 were $0.77 per share ($0.76 per share fully-diluted) compared to $0.65 per share ($0.65 per share fully-diluted) for the first quarter of 2010. Return on average assets and return on average common shareholders’ equity for the three-month period ended March 31, 2011 were 0.99 and 11.63 percent, respectively, compared to 0.96 and 10.25 percent for the three-month period ended March 31, 2010.

Net interest income for the three month period ended March 31, 2011 increased $2.7 million, or 3.5 percent, compared to the same period in 2010. Average earning assets increased by $1.4 billion, or 14.3 percent, compared to the first quarter of 2010. Net interest margin, on a tax-equivalent basis, decreased to 2.90 percent or a 29 basis point decline for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to 3.19 percent for the same period in 2010.

The provision for loan losses decreased by $1.2 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2011, compared to the same period in 2010. With the decreased provision, the allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans decreased by 1 basis point to 1.56 percent as of March 31, 2011, compared to March 31, 2010. For a description of the Company’s methodology for computing the allowance for loan losses, please see the summary discussion of the Allowance for Loan Losses within the Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates subsection of the “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” section on the Company’s 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Noninterest income increased by $21.3 million, or 24.7 percent, for the three-month period ended March 31, 2011, compared to the same period one year ago. For the three month period, the increases are primarily due to increases in trust and securities processing income, bankcard fees and gains on the sales of securities available for sale. These changes are discussed in greater detail below under Noninterest Income.

Noninterest expense increased by $18.1 million, or 15.5 percent, for the three-month period ended March 31, 2011, compared to the same period in 2010. For the three month period, the increases were primarily due to increases in salaries and employee benefits, processing fees and amortization of intangible assets. These changes are discussed in greater detail below under Noninterest Expense.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income is a significant source of the Company’s earnings and represents the amount by which interest income on earning assets exceeds the interest expense paid on liabilities. The volume of interest-earning assets and the related funding sources, the overall mix of these assets and liabilities, and the rates paid on each affect net interest income. For the three-month period ended March 31, 2011, net interest income increased by $2.7 million, or 3.5 percent, as compared to the same period in 2010.

Table 1 shows the impact of earning asset rate changes compared to changes in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities. The Company continues to experience a repricing of these earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities during the recent interest rate cycle. As illustrated on this table, net interest spread for the three months ended March 31, 2011 decreased by 22 basis points and net interest margin decreased by 29 basis points compared to the same period in 2010. These results are primarily due to the interest-bearing liabilities repricing slower or incrementally less than the earning assets. The increase of $319.7 million from noninterest-bearing demand deposits, as compared to the first quarter of 2010, continues to be a positive impact. However, with the rate on interest-bearing liabilities decreasing to 0.37 percent as compared to 0.59 percent one year ago, the contribution from free funds is diminished. For the impact of the contribution from free funds, see the Analysis of Net Interest Margin within Table 2 below. Table 2 also illustrates how the changes in volume and rates have resulted in the flattening of net interest income.

Although the average balance of interest free funds (total earning assets less interest-bearing liabilities) increased $258.2 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2011 compared to the same period in 2010, the benefit from interest free funds declined by 7 basis points from the three months ended March 31, 2010.

Provision and Allowance for Loan Losses

The allowance for loan losses (ALL) represents management’s judgment of the losses inherent in the Company’s loan portfolio as of the balance sheet date. An analysis is performed quarterly to determine the appropriate balance of the ALL. This analysis considers items such as historical loss trends, a review of individual loans, migration analysis, current economic conditions, loan growth and characteristics, industry or segment concentration and other factors. This analysis is performed separately for each bank as regulatory agencies require that the adequacy of the ALL be maintained on a bank-by-bank basis. After the balance sheet analysis is performed for the ALL, the provision for loan losses is computed as the amount required to adjust the ALL to the appropriate level.

Based on the factors above, management of the Company expensed $7.1 million related to the provision for loan losses for the three month period ended March 31, 2011, compared to $8.3 million for the same period in 2010. As illustrated in Table 3 below, the ALL decreased to 1.56 percent of total loans as of March 31, 2011, compared to 1.57 percent of total loans as of the same period in 2010.

Noninterest Income

A key objective of the Company is the growth of noninterest income to enhance profitability and provide steady income. Fee-based services are typically non-credit related and not generally affected by fluctuations in interest rates.

The Company’s fee-based services provide the opportunity to offer multiple products and services, which management believes will more closely align the customer with the Company. The Company is currently emphasizing fee-based services including trust and securities processing, bankcard, brokerage, health care services, and treasury management. Management believes it can offer these products and services both efficiently and profitably, as most share common platforms and support structures.

Fee-based, or noninterest income (summarized in Table 4), increased by $21.3 million, or 24.7 percent, during the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to the same period in 2010. Table 4 above summarizes the components of noninterest income and the respective year-over-year comparison for each category.

Trust and securities processing consists of fees earned on personal and corporate trust accounts, custody of securities, trust investments and money management services, and servicing of mutual fund assets. The increase in trust and securities processing income was primarily due to a $4.7 million, or 45.1 percent, increase in advisory fee income from the Scout Funds, a $2.4 million, or 15.8 percent, increase in fund administration and custody services, and a $7.0 million, or 631.1 percent, increase in fees related to institutional and personal investment management services. Trust and securities processing fees are asset-based. As such, they are highly correlated to the change in market value of the assets. Thus, the related income for the remainder of the year will be affected by changes in the securities markets. Management continues to emphasize sales of services to both new and existing clients as well as increasing and improving the distribution channels.

Bankcard fees increased $2.4 million, or 20.1 percent, compared to the first quarter of 2010 from increased processing fee income.

In the first quarter of 2011, $7.5 million in pre-tax gains were recognized on the sales of securities available for sale, as compared to $5.4 million one year ago. These sales are part of an objective to monitor and control the Company’s interest rate sensitivity and duration in an anticipated rising interest rate environment.

Noninterest expense increased by $18.1 million, or 15.5 percent, for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the same period in 2010. Table 5 above summarizes the components of noninterest expense and the respective year-over-year comparison for each category.

Salaries and employee benefits increased by $10.6 million, or 17.1 percent, for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to the same period in 2010. These increases are primarily due to a $4.5 million increase in salaries, a $2.9 million increase in commissions and bonuses, and a $3.2 million increase in employee benefits for the three months ended March 31, 2011. These increases are directly correlated to the financial performance during 2010 and the addition of associates from acquisition activity.

Processing fees increased $1.1 million, or 10.4 percent, for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to the same period in 2010. These increases are due to increased third-party custodian fees related to international transactions from mutual fund clients and fees paid by the advisor to third-party distributors of the Scout Funds.

Amortization of other intangibles increased $1.9 million, or 91.6 percent, compared to the first quarter of 2010. This increase is due to acquisition activity during the last two quarters of 2010.

Income Tax Expense

The effective tax rate is 29.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to 28.3% for the same period in 2010. The increase in the effective tax rate is primarily a result of tax-exempt income representing a smaller percentage of pre-tax net income in 2011 compared to 2010.

Commercial Financial Services’ net income before taxes decreased $0.1 million, or 0.8 percent, to $14.0 million from the prior year. The slight decrease in net income was driven primarily by an increase in provision for loan losses, offset by increases in net interest income and noninterest income and a decrease in noninterest expense. Total earning asset balances are up over the prior year by $181.5 million, or 5.3 percent; additionally, deposits and repurchase agreements increased by $201.9 million, or 7.8 percent. Net interest income increased by $0.7 million, or 1.8 percent, due to the balance sheet increases. Noninterest income increased $0.7 million, or 7.5 percent, due to increased fees from the sales of commercial credit cards, deposit service charges, and letters of credit. Noninterest expense decreased by $0.2 million, or 0.7 percent, primarily due to a decline in allocated expenses. Provision for loan loss increased by $1.7 million, or 59.1 percent, primarily due to loan growth in this segment and additional allocation of provision to ensure the allowance for loan loss is maintained at an appropriate level given the inherent risk in the loan portfolio in this segment.

Institutional Financial Services’ net income before taxes increased $7.0 million, or 62.3 percent, to $18.4 million from the first quarter of 2010. Noninterest income increased $14.8 million, net interest income increased $1.9 million, and provision decreased by $2.4 million, offset by a $12.0 million increase in noninterest expense. Noninterest income increased due to a $4.7 million increase in advisory fees from Scout Investments, $2.4 million increase in fund administration and custody services income, $1.9 million increase in bond trading, $4.1 million increase in institutional management fee income and a $1.8 million increase in card services income. Fee income increased due largely to acquisitions and net inflows of $0.5 billion for the quarter. Fee income from new sales and market appreciation are the drivers of the increase in fund administration and alternative investments. Card services income increased from our credit card portfolio acquisitions in 2010 and due to increased sales volume in commercial card, healthcare services and debit card. Credit card balances increased by $101.4 million compared to the prior year primarily from the acquisition of two credit card portfolios totaling approximately $78.0 million over the past year. Bond trading fee income increased $1.8 million due to increased sales. Salary and benefit expense increased $6.0 million related to the increase to staffing primarily due to acquisitions and growth in the fund servicing businesses. Amortization of intangibles expense increased by $1.4 million. Bankcard and third party custodial fees increased $1.2 million related to the volume growth in these areas. Overhead allocations increased to this segment of $2.8 million due to the increases in revenue. Net interest income increased by $1.9 million due to an increase in deposits of $0.7 billion and loans of $101 million.

Personal Financial Services’ net income before taxes decreased by $2.7 million to $3.6 million compared to the prior year. Net interest income decreased $0.4 million, or 1.7 percent, over 2010 due to a decrease in earning assets of $27.0 million. Consumer loan balances decreased by $83.1 million due to the continued runoff of the indirect automobile portfolio and was partially offset by the growth in the home equity loan portfolio. Deposit balances have also increased in this segment compared to 2010, by $206.1 million, primarily in demand and money market accounts offset by decreases in time deposits. Noninterest income increased $3.4 million, or 15.1 percent, from 2010. This increase was due primarily to an increase in investment management fee income related to the acquisitions and growth in personal trust fee income. This increase was offset by a reduction in overdraft and insufficient fund fees. Noninterest expense increased $6.2 million, or 15.1 percent, over 2010. The increase was primarily due to salary and benefit costs and amortization of intangibles related to acquisitions and an increase in allocated costs to this segment.

Table of Contents

The net income before tax for the Treasury and Other Adjustments category was $7.6 million for the first three months of 2011, compared to net income before tax of $4.7 million for the same period in 2010. The primary driver of this category is security gains. There were $7.5 million of gains in 2011 compared to $5.4 million in 2010.

Balance Sheet Analysis

Total assets of the Company increased $947.4 million as of March 31, 2011, compared to December 31, 2010, or 7.6 percent, and increased $2.6 billion, or 24.5 percent, compared to March 31, 2010. The increase in total assets from March 2010 to March 2011 is a result of increased due from Federal Reserve balances of $1.4 billion, or 344.9 percent, an increase in investment securities of $895.5 million, or 18.5 percent, and an increase in loans of $365.9 million, or 8.5 percent. The increase in total assets from December to March is primarily result of increased due from Federal Reserve balances of $1.2 billion, or 176.0 percent. The overall increase in total assets is directly related to a corresponding increase in deposit balances between the respective periods of $2.2 billion, or 26.2 percent, for the period March 2010 to March 2011 and $1.3 billion, or 14.9 percent, for the period December 2010 to March 2011.

Loans and Loans Held For Sale

Loans represent the Company’s largest source of interest income. In addition to growing the commercial loan portfolio, management believes its middle market commercial business and its consumer business, including home equity and credit card loan products, are the market niches that represent its best opportunity to cross-sell fee-related services.

Total loan balances increased $84.2 million, or 1.8 percent, to $4.7 billion at March 31, 2011 compared to December 31, 2010 and increased $365.9 million, or 8.5 percent, compared to March 31, 2010. Compared to December 31, 2010, commercial loans increased $111.5 million, or 5.8 percent, offset by a decrease in consumer loans of $35.4 million, or 25.2 percent. Compared to March 31, 2010, commercial loans increased $195.5 million, or 10.6 percent, commercial real estate increased $116.1 million, or 9.86 percent, consumer credit cards increased $61.2 million, or 25.2 percent, offset by a decrease in consumer loans of $83.8 million, or 44.4 percent. During the third quarter of 2007, the Company made the decision to phase out its indirect consumer loan portfolio. This is part of an objective to enhance asset yields. The Company will continue to service existing loans until maturity or payoff.

Nonaccrual, past due and restructured loans are discussed under “Credit Risk Management” within “Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in this report.

Investment Securities

The Company’s security portfolio provides liquidity as a result of the composition and average life of the underlying securities. This liquidity can be used to fund loan growth or to offset the outflow of traditional funding sources. In addition to providing a potential source of liquidity, the security portfolio can be used as a tool to manage interest rate sensitivity. The Company’s goal in the management of its security portfolio is to maximize return within the Company’s parameters of liquidity goals, interest rate risk and credit risk. The Company maintains strong liquidity levels while investing in only high-grade securities. The security portfolio generates the Company’s second largest component of interest income.

Investment securities totaled $5.7 billion at March 31, 2011, compared to $4.9 billion at March 31, 2010, and $5.7 billion at December 31, 2010. Management expects collateral pledging requirements for public funds, loan demand, and deposit funding to be the primary factors impacting changes in the level of security holdings. Investment securities comprised 46.5 percent, 50.6 percent, and 49.3 percent, respectively, of the earning assets as of March 31, 2011, December 31, 2010, and March 31, 2010. There were $3.8 billion of these securities pledged to secure U.S. Government deposits, other public deposits, securities sold under repurchase agreements, and certain trust deposits as required by law at March 31, 2011.

Investment securities had an average tax-equivalent yield of 2.52 percent for the first three months of 2011 compared to 3.02 percent for the same period in 2010, or a decrease of 50 basis points. The average life of the securities portfolio was 36.2 months at March 31, 2011 compared to 28.7 months at December 31, 2010 and 23.5 months at March 31, 2010. The increase in average life from March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2010 was primarily related to an increase in the percentage of investments invested in the core portfolio resulting in a lower percentage of short term investments held compared to the same period last year due to excess liquidity being retained in the continued low rate environment.

Deposits and Borrowed Funds

Deposits increased $1.3 billion, or 14.9 percent, from December 31, 2010 to March 31, 2011 and increased $2.2 billion, or 26.2 percent, from March 31, 2010. Noninterest-bearing deposits increased $739.0 million and interest-bearing deposits increased $605.0 million from December 31, 2010. Noninterest-bearing deposits increased $911.4 million and interest-bearing deposits increased $1.2 billion from March 31, 2010. The increase in noninterest-bearing deposits from March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2010 came primarily from our public funds, mutual fund processing and treasury management businesses. The increase in interest-bearing deposits is primarily related to increases in money market accounts.

Deposits represent the Company’s primary funding source for its asset base. In addition to the core deposits garnered by the Company’s retail branch structure, the Company continues to focus on its cash management services, as well as its trust and mutual fund servicing segments, in order to attract and retain additional core deposits. Management believes a strong core deposit composition is one of the Company’s key competencies given its competitive product mix.

Borrowed funds decreased $409.5 million from December 31, 2010. Borrowed funds are typically higher at year end due to repurchase agreements related to public funds. Borrowings, other than repurchase agreements, are a function of the source and use of funds and will fluctuate to cover short term gaps in funding. Borrowed funds increased $361.6 million from March 31, 2010.

Federal funds purchased and securities sold under agreement to repurchase totaled $1.7 billion at March 31, 2011, compared to $2.1 billion at December 31, 2010 and $1.3 billion at March 31, 2010. Repurchase agreements are transactions involving the exchange of investment funds by the customer for securities by the Company under an agreement to repurchase the same issues at an agreed-upon price and date.

Capital and Liquidity

The Company places a significant emphasis on the maintenance of a strong capital position, which promotes investor confidence, provides access to funding sources under favorable terms, and enhances the Company’s ability to capitalize on business growth and acquisition opportunities. Higher levels of liquidity, however, bear corresponding costs, measured in terms of lower yields on short-term, more liquid earning assets and higher expenses for extended liability maturities. The Company manages capital for each subsidiary based upon the subsidiary’s respective risks and growth opportunities as well as regulatory requirements.

Total shareholders’ equity was $1.1 billion at March 31, 2011, a $18.1 million increase compared to December 31, 2010. The Company’s Board of Directors authorized, at its April 26, 2011, April 27, 2010, and April 21, 2009 meetings, the repurchase of up to two million shares of the Company’s common stock during the twelve months following the meetings. During the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company acquired 33,337 shares and 76,809 shares under the 2011 and 2010 plans, respectively, of its common stock. The Company has not made any purchases other than through these plans.

On April 26, 2011, the Board of Directors also declared a dividend of $0.195 per share. The dividend will be paid on July 1, 2011 to shareholders of record on June 10, 2011.

Risk-based capital guidelines established by regulatory agencies set minimum capital standards based on the level of risk associated with a financial institution’s assets. A financial institution’s total capital is required to equal at least 8 percent of risk-weighted assets. At least half of that 8 percent must consist of Tier 1 core capital, and the remainder may be Tier 2 supplementary capital. The risk-based capital guidelines indicate the specific risk weightings by type of asset. Certain off-balance-sheet items (such as standby letters of credit and binding loan commitments) are multiplied by credit conversion factors to translate them into balance sheet equivalents before assigning them specific risk weightings. Due to the Company’s high level of core capital and substantial portion of earning assets invested in government securities, the Tier 1 capital ratio of 11.57 percent and total capital ratio of 12.68 percent substantially exceed the regulatory minimums.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations discusses the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments, including those related to customers and suppliers, allowance for loan losses, bad debts, investments, financing operations, long-lived assets, contingencies and litigation. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which have formed the basis for making such judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from the recorded estimates under different assumptions or conditions. A summary of critical accounting policies is listed in the “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” section of the Company’s Annual Report Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Risk Management

Market risk is a broad term for the risk of economic loss due to adverse changes in the fair value of financial instruments. These changes may be the result of various factors, including interest rates, foreign exchange prices, commodity prices or equity prices. Financial instruments that are subject to market risk can be classified either as held for trading or held for purposes other than trading.

The Company is subject to market risk primarily through the effect of changes in interest rates of its assets held for purposes other than trading. The following discussion of interest rate risk, however, combines instruments held for trading and instruments held for purposes other than trading, because the instruments held for trading represent such a small portion of the Company’s portfolio that the interest rate risk associated with them is immaterial.

Interest Rate Risk

In the banking industry, a major risk exposure is changing interest rates. To minimize the effect of interest rate changes to net interest income and exposure levels to economic losses, the Company manages its exposure to changes in interest rates through asset and liability management within guidelines established by its Funds Management Committee (“FMC”) and approved by the Company’s Board of Directors. The FMC has the responsibility for approving and ensuring compliance with asset/liability management policies, including interest rate exposure. The Company’s primary method for measuring and analyzing consolidated interest rate risk is the Net Interest Income Simulation Analysis. The Company also uses a Net Portfolio Value model to measure market value risk under various rate change scenarios and a gap analysis to measure maturity and repricing relationships between interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities at specific points in time. On a limited basis, the Company uses hedges or swaps to manage interest rate risk by using futures contracts on certain loans and trading securities.

Overall, the Company manages interest rate risk by positioning the balance sheet to maximize net interest income while maintaining an acceptable level of interest rate and credit risk, remaining mindful of the relationship among profitability, liquidity, interest rate risk and credit risk.

Net Interest Income Modeling

The Company’s primary interest rate risk tool, the Net Interest Income Simulation Analysis, measures interest rate risk and the effect of interest rate changes on net interest income and net interest margin. This analysis incorporates substantially all of the Company’s assets and liabilities together with forecasted changes in the balance sheet and assumptions that reflect the current interest rate environment. Through these simulations, management estimates the impact on net interest income of a 200 basis point upward or downward gradual change of market interest rates over a one year period. Assumptions are made to project rates for new loans and deposits based on historical analysis, management outlook, and repricing strategies. Asset prepayments and other market risks are developed from industry estimates of prepayment speeds and other market changes. Since the results of these simulations can be significantly influenced by assumptions utilized, management evaluates the sensitivity of the simulation results to changes in assumptions.

Table 9 shows the net interest income increase or decrease over the next twelve months as of March 31, 2011 and 2010 based on hypothetical changes in interest rates.
