We are capitalizing on the current environment by attracting new loan customers as well as taking care of our existing customers' growth needs," continued Zalman. "I also look forward to welcoming Gordon Muir and his team of talented bankers upon the closing of our merger with Bank of Texas in early 2012."

Prosperity's management uses certain non−GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) financial measures to evaluate its performance. Specifically, Prosperity reviews tangible book value per share, return on average tangible common equity and the tangible equity to tangible assets ratio. Prosperity has included in this Earnings Release information relating to these non-GAAP financial measures for the applicable periods presented. Please refer to the "Notes to Selected Financial Data" at the end of this Earnings Release for a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures.

Results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2011

For the three months ended September 30, 2011, net income was $36.373 million compared with $32.166 million for the same period in 2010. Net income per diluted common share was $0.77 for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and $0.69 for the same period in 2010. Returns on average assets, average common equity and average tangible common equity for the three months ended September 30, 2011 were 1.52%, 9.51% and 25.03%, respectively. Prosperity's efficiency ratio (excluding net gains and losses on the sale of securities and assets) was 42.38% for the three months ended September 30, 2011.

Net interest income before provision for credit losses for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 increased 2.8% to $82.538 million compared with $80.267 million during the same period in 2010. The increase was attributable to a 1.8% increase in average earning assets during the same period. Additionally, the average yield on interest earning assets decreased 23 basis points while the rate paid on interest bearing liabilities decreased 30 basis points for the same period. The net interest margin on a tax equivalent basis increased to 4.02% for the three months ended September 30, 2011 compared with 3.97% for the same period in 2010. On a linked quarter basis, the tax equivalent net interest margin decreased four basis points to 4.02% for the three months ended September 30, 2011 from 4.06% reported for the three months ended June 30, 2011.

Non-interest income increased $927,000 or 6.8% to $14.581 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011 compared with $13.654 million for the same period in 2010. The increase was mainly attributable to a reduction in net loss on the sale of other real estate and an increase in debit card and ATM card income, partially offset by a decrease in NSF income.

Non-interest expense decreased $1.442 million or 3.4% to $41.151 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011 compared with $42.593 million for the same period in 2010. The decrease was attributable primarily due to a decrease in ORE expenses and reduced FDIC assessments partially offset by an increase in salaries and benefits expense.

Deposits at September 30, 2011 were $7.799 billion, an increase of $307.159 million or 4.1%, compared with $7.492 billion at September 30, 2010. Linked quarter deposits increased $131.047 million or 1.7% (6.8% annualized) from $7.668 billion at June 30, 2011.

At September 30, 2011, Prosperity had $9.567 billion in total assets, $3.738 billion in loans, and $7.799 billion in deposits. Assets, loans and deposits at September 30, 2011 increased by 3.6%, 9.5% and 4.1%, respectively, compared with their level at September 30, 2010.

Consolidated Financial Highlights


NOTES TO SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA


Prosperity's management uses certain non−GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) financial measures to evaluate its performance. Specifically, Prosperity reviews tangible book value per share, return on average tangible common equity and the tangible equity to tangible assets ratio for internal planning and forecasting purposes.  Prosperity has included in this Earnings Release information relating to these non-GAAP financial measures for the applicable periods presented.  Prosperity believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide information useful to investors in understanding Prosperity's financial results and Prosperity believes that its presentation, together with the accompanying reconciliations, provides a complete understanding of factors and trends affecting Prosperity's business and allows investors to view performance in a manner similar to management, the entire financial services sector, bank stock analysts and bank regulators. Further, Prosperity believes that these non-GAAP measures provide useful information by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of its core operating earnings and business outlook.  These non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for GAAP basis measures and results and Prosperity strongly encourages investors to review its consolidated financial statements in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure. Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies' non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names.
