FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

MB FINANCIAL, INC. REPORTS SECOND QUARTER 2012 NET INCOME OF $22.1 MILLION, IMPROVED RETURN ON ASSETS AND RETURN ON EQUITY AND IMPROVED CREDIT METRICS

CHICAGO, July 17, 2012 – MB Financial, Inc. (NASDAQ: MBFI), the holding company for MB Financial Bank, N.A (“the Bank” or “MB Financial Bank”), announced today second quarter results for 2012.  The words “MB Financial,” “the Company,” “we,” “our” and “us” refer to MB Financial, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, unless indicated otherwise.  We had net income and net income available to common stockholders of $22.1 million for the second quarter of 2012 compared to a net loss of $7.4 million and net loss available to common stockholders of $10.0 million for the second quarter of 2011, and net income of $21.1 million and net income available to common stockholders of $17.8 million for the first quarter of 2012.

Key items for the quarter were as follows:

Improved Return on Assets and Return on Equity:
·  
Annualized return on average assets increased to 0.94% for the second quarter of 2012 compared to 0.87% for the first quarter of 2012, driven by lower credit costs.
·   
Annualized return on average common equity improved to 7.28% for the second quarter of 2012 compared to 5.94% for the first quarter of 2012.  The improvement was a result of lower credit costs and the repurchase in the first quarter of 2012 of all $196 million of preferred stock issued in 2008 to the U.S. Department of Treasury as part of the Troubled Asset Relief Program (“TARP”) Capital Purchase Program.  As a result, there were no TARP dividends in the second quarter of 2012 compared to $3.3 million in the first quarter of 2012.
·   
Annualized cash return on average tangible common equity increased to 11.28% in the second quarter of 2012 from 9.36% in the first quarter of 2012.

Improved Credit Metrics:
·  
We had no provision for credit losses for the second quarter of 2012, while our net charge-offs were $4.4 million.  Our provision for credit losses and net charge-offs for the first quarter of 2012 were $3.1 million and $5.8 million, respectively.
·  
Losses recognized on other real estate owned (“OREO”), which we view as credit costs, were $5.4 million in the second quarter of 2012 compared to $6.6 million in the first quarter of 2012.
·  
Our non-performing loans improved to $113.5 million or 1.98% of total loans as of June 30, 2012 from $124.7 million or 2.15% of total loans at March 31, 2012, a decrease of $11.2 million (-9.0%)
·  
Our non-performing assets improved to $163.3 million or 1.72% of total assets as of June 30, 2012 from $187.8 million or 1.94% of total assets as of March 31, 2012, a decrease of $24.6 million (-13.1%)
·  
Our allowance for loan losses to non-performing loans was 107.25% as of June 30, 2012 compared to 100.59% as of March 31, 2012.

Balance Sheet Trends:
·  
Gross loan balances as of June 30, 2012, excluding covered loans and loans held for sale, were essentially unchanged compared to March 31, 2012 balances.  Commercial and industrial loans (+3.8%), lease loans (+0.9%), construction loans (+17.7%) and consumer loans (+1.2%) all increased during the quarter, while commercial real estate loans decreased (-4.4%).
·  
Noninterest bearing deposits increased approximately $72 million (+3.9%) from March 31, 2012 to June 30, 2012 due primarily to the addition of new customers.  Money market and NOW accounts decreased approximately $138 million (-5.1%) and certificate of deposit balances decreased approximately $102 million (-4.5%) from the prior quarter as we continued our efforts to lower our funding costs and improve our deposit mix.
·  
During the first quarter of 2012, we entered into and fully utilized a $35 million unsecured line of credit to fund a portion of our TARP repayment.   During the second quarter of 2012, though still available for future borrowing, the outstanding amount on this line of credit was repaid in full.
·  
During the second quarter of 2012, we repurchased in full the ten-year warrant held by the U.S. Department of Treasury to purchase 506,024 shares of the Company’s common stock issued in 2008 to the Treasury as part of TARP.  The price paid by the Company to repurchase the warrant was $1.5 million.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Second Quarter Results

Net Interest Income

Net interest income on a fully tax equivalent basis decreased $2.7 million from the first quarter of 2012.  The decrease from the first quarter of 2012 to the second quarter of 2012 was due primarily to a decrease in average interest earning assets of approximately $195 million and a four basis point decline in our net interest margin to 3.83% on a fully tax equivalent basis.

Net interest income on a fully tax equivalent basis decreased $9.0 million during the first six months of 2012 compared to the first six months of 2011.  The decrease from the first six months of 2012 to the first six months of 2011 was due primarily to a decrease in average interest earning assets of approximately $382 million and a five basis point decline in our net interest margin to 3.85% on a fully tax equivalent basis.

See the supplemental net interest margin tables for further detail.

Letters denote the corresponding line items where these non-core other expense items reside in the consolidated statements of income as follows:  A – Salaries and employee benefits.

Core other expense in the second quarter of 2012 was consistent with first quarter of 2012.  FDIC insurance premiums decreased due to a change in the assessment computation during the second quarter of 2012.  Other real estate expense decreased as a result of lower holding costs related to OREO given we have fewer OREO properties.  Other operating expenses were unusually low in the first quarter of 2012 as a result of recording a decrease during that period in the clawback liability related to our loss share agreements with the FDIC.

Core other expense increased by $1.6 million from the first six months of 2011 to the first six months of 2012.  Salaries and employee benefits expense increased primarily due to annual salary increases and higher health insurance claims.  FDIC insurance premiums decreased due to a change in the assessment computation during the second quarter of 2012 and the impact of improved credit quality on the computation.  Other operating expenses were favorably impacted in the first half of 2012 by a decrease in the clawback liability related to our loss share agreements with the FDIC recorded during the period.  Non-core other expense was primarily impacted by $1.0 million of fixed asset impairment charges due to our decision to close a branch in the first quarter of 2011.

Income Taxes

The Company had income tax expense of $9.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to $8.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012.   Income tax expense was $17.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to a tax benefit of $11.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011.  The change was due to the Company’s improvement in pre-tax income.

We define potential problem loans as performing loans rated substandard that do not meet the definition of a non-performing loan (See “Asset Quality” section above for non-performing loans).  Potential problem loans carry a higher probability of default and require additional attention by management.  The aggregate principal amount of potential problem loans was $141.0 million, or 2.46% of total loans, as of June 30, 2012, compared to $159.4 million, or 2.75% of total loans, as of March 31, 2012.

During the second quarter of 2011, we sold certain performing, sub-performing and non-performing loans.  The loans sold had an aggregate carrying amount of $281.6 million prior to the transfer to loans held for sale.  This sale resulted in approximately $87.6 million in charge-offs and an increase in the provision for credit losses of approximately $50 million in the second quarter of 2011.

Our allowance for loan losses is comprised of three elements: a general loss reserve, a specific reserve for impaired loans and a reserve for smaller-balance homogenous loans.  The following table presents these three elements of our allowance for loan losses (in thousands):

Although management believes that adequate general, specific and smaller-balance homogenous loan loss allowances have been established, actual losses are dependent upon future events and, as such, further additions to the level of general, specific and smaller-balance homogenous loan loss allowances may become necessary.

When used in this press release and in reports filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission, in press releases or other public stockholder communications, or in oral statements made with the approval of an authorized executive officer, the words or phrases “believe,” “will,” “should,” “will likely result,” “are expected to,” “will continue” “is anticipated,” “estimate,” “project,” “plans,” or similar expressions are intended to identify “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made.  These statements may relate to our future financial performance, strategic plans or objectives, revenues or earnings projections, or other financial items.  By their nature, these statements are subject to numerous uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated in the statements.

Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results anticipated or projected include, but are not limited to, the following: (1) expected revenues, cost savings, synergies and other benefits from our merger and acquisition activities might not be realized within the anticipated time frames or at all, and costs or difficulties relating to integration matters, including but not limited to customer and employee retention, might be greater than expected; (2) the possibility that the expected benefits of the FDIC-assisted transactions we previously completed will not be realized; (3) the credit risks of lending activities, including changes in the level and direction of loan delinquencies and write-offs and changes in estimates of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, which could necessitate additional provisions for loan losses, resulting both from loans we originate and loans we acquire from other financial institutions; (4) results of examinations by the Office of Comptroller of Currency and other regulatory authorities, including the possibility that any such regulatory authority may, among other things, require us to increase our allowance for loan losses or write-down assets; (5) competitive pressures among depository institutions; (6) interest rate movements and their impact on customer behavior and net interest margin; (7) the impact of repricing and competitors’ pricing initiatives on loan and deposit products; (8) fluctuations in real estate values; (9) the ability to adapt successfully to technological changes to meet customers’ needs and developments in the market place; (10) our ability to realize the residual values of our direct finance, leveraged, and operating leases; (11) our ability to access cost-effective funding; (12) changes in financial markets; (13) changes in economic conditions in general and in the Chicago metropolitan area in particular; (14) the costs, effects and outcomes of litigation; (15) new legislation or regulatory changes, including but not limited to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and regulations adopted thereunder, other governmental initiatives affecting the financial services industry and changes in federal and/or state tax laws or interpretations thereof by taxing authorities; (16) changes in accounting principles, policies or guidelines; (17) our future acquisitions of other depository institutions or lines of business; and (18) future goodwill impairment due to changes in our business, changes in market conditions, or other factors.

We do not undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect circumstances or events that occur after the date on which the forward-looking statement is made.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION

This press release contains certain financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP).  These measures include core other income, core other expense, non-core other income and non-core other expense, net interest income on a fully tax equivalent basis, net interest margin on a fully tax equivalent basis, efficiency ratio and the ratio of annualized net non-interest expense to average assets with net gains and losses on investment securities, net gains and losses on sale of other assets, net losses on other real estate owned, net gain on sale of loans held for sale and increase (decrease) in market value of assets held in trust for deferred compensation excluded from the non-interest income components of these ratios, impairment charges and increase (decrease) in market value of assets held in trust for deferred compensation excluded from the non-interest expense components of these ratios, with tax equivalent adjustment for tax-exempt interest income and increase in cash surrender value of life insurance, as applicable; ratios of tangible equity to tangible assets, tangible common equity to risk-weighted assets, tangible common equity to tangible assets and Tier 1 common capital to risk-weighted assets; tangible book value per common share; and annualized cash return on average tangible common equity.  Our management uses these non-GAAP measures, together with the related GAAP measures, in its analysis of our performance and in making business decisions.  Management also uses these measures for peer comparisons.

Management believes that core and non-core other income and other expense are useful in assessing our core operating performance and in understanding the primary drivers of our other income and other expense when comparing periods.

The tax equivalent adjustment to net interest income, net interest margin, tax-exempt interest income and increase in cash surrender value of life insurance recognizes the income tax savings when comparing taxable and tax-exempt assets and assumes a 35% tax rate.  Management believes that it is a standard practice in the banking industry to present net interest income and net interest margin on a fully tax equivalent basis, and accordingly believes that providing these measures may be useful for peer comparison purposes.  For the same reasons, management believes the tax equivalent adjustments to tax-exempt interest income and increase in cash surrender value of life insurance are useful.

Management also believes that by excluding net gains and losses on investment securities, net gains and losses on sale of other assets, net losses on other real estate owned, net gain on sale of loans held for sale and increase (decrease) in market value of assets held in trust for deferred compensation from the non-interest income components, and excluding impairment changes and increase (decrease) in market value of assets held in trust for deferred compensation from the non-interest expense components, of the efficiency ratio and the ratio of annualized net non-interest expense to average assets, these ratios better reflect our core operating performance, as the excluded items do not pertain to our core business operations and their exclusion makes these ratios more meaningful when comparing our operating results from period to period.

In addition, management believes that presenting the ratio of Tier 1 common equity to risk-weighted assets is useful for assessing our capital strength and for peer comparison purposes.  The other measures exclude the acquisition-related goodwill and other intangible assets, net of tax benefit, in determining tangible assets, tangible equity, tangible common equity and average tangible common equity and exclude other intangible amortization expense, net of tax benefit, in determining net cash flow available to common stockholders.  Management believes the presentation of these other financial measures excluding the impact of such items provides useful supplemental information that is helpful in understanding our financial results, as they provide a method to assess management’s success in utilizing our tangible capital as well as our capital strength.  Management also believes that providing measures that exclude balances of acquisition-related goodwill and other intangible assets, which are subjective components of valuation, facilitates the comparison of our performance with the performance of our peers.  In addition, management believes that these are standard financial measures used in the banking industry to evaluate performance.

The non-GAAP disclosures contained herein should not be viewed as substitutes for the results determined to be in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies.
