The incremental accretion income in the table above represents the amount of income recorded on acquired loans above the contractual rate stated in the individual loan notes and stems from the discount established at the time these loan portfolios were acquired. As of June 30, 2012, the remaining accretable yield on acquired impaired loans was $214.1 million and the remaining loan discount on other acquired loans was $7.0 million, down from $239.7 million and $8.2 million, respectively at March 31, 2012.

The $11.7 million in provision for losses on covered loans in the current period is offset by an 80%, or $9.4 million, favorable adjustment to the change in the FDIC loss-sharing asset resulting in a net pre-tax earnings impact of $2.3 million. The provision for losses on covered loans was due to incremental loan losses incurred in the current period which were in excess of those expected from the re-measurement of cash flows during the first quarter of 2012.  These incremental loan losses reduced expected future cash flows and, when discounted at current yields, resulted in impairment.


2



The $168 thousand change in the FDIC loss sharing asset in the current quarter affected noninterest income and consists of $9.9 million of scheduled amortization expense, the $9.4 million favorable adjustment described above and approximately $300 thousand of expense related to covered other real estate owned.

Net Interest Margin

Columbia's net interest margin increased to 5.88% in the second quarter of 2012, up from 5.49% for the same period last year and down from 6.67% for the first quarter of 2012. The Company's net interest margin is impacted significantly by the accounting for acquired loans. The net interest margin for the current quarter reflects a moderating trend in the additional accretion income related to the acquired loans, which peaked during the last six months of 2011.

The Company's net interest margin, excluding incremental accretion income, decreased to 4.44% in the second quarter of 2012, down from 4.53% for the same period last year and down from 4.49% for the first quarter of 2012. The net interest margin, excluding incremental accretion income, was negatively impacted during the second quarter of 2012 by the overall decreasing trend in rates, impacting both the Company's loan and investment portfolios. Average noncovered loan yields have decreased due to a combination of repricing of existing loans and new originations at lower rates. The average yield on investments declined as portfolio cash flows were reinvested at lower prevailing rates.

The following table shows the impact to interest income and the related impact to the net interest margin resulting from accretion of income on acquired loan portfolios for the periods presented.

Balance Sheet
At June 30, 2012, Columbia's total assets were $4.79 billion, a slight decrease from $4.82 billion at March 31, 2012, and virtually unchanged from December 31, 2011. Noncovered loans were $2.44 billion at June 30, 2012, up 3% from $2.37 billion at March 31, 2012 and up 4% from $2.35 billion at December 31, 2011. Net noncovered loan growth for the second quarter 2012 was approximately $65 million from March 31, 2012 and $89 million from year-end 2011. Securities were $1.02 billion at June 30, 2012, relatively unchanged from March 31, 2012 and down 3% from $1.05 billion at December 31, 2011.

Total deposits at June 30, 2012 remained stable at $3.83 billion compared to $3.87 billion at March 31, 2012, and increased less than 1% from $3.82 billion at December 31, 2011. Core deposits (defined as demand, savings, money market accounts and certificates of deposit under $100,000) comprised 93% of total deposits, and were $3.57 billion at June 30, 2012, relatively unchanged from $3.59 billion at March 31, 2012, and an increase of 2% from $3.51 billion at December 31, 2011.
  
Total shareholder equity was $758.7 million at June 30, 2012, compared to $752.7 and $759.3 at March 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. In accordance with the Company's recent capital and dividend strategies, total shareholders' equity has remained relatively unchanged over the past three quarters. Melanie Dressel commented, “Our high capital ratios put us in a good position to take advantage of strategic opportunities that may arise."
    
Asset Quality

At June 30, 2012, nonperforming noncovered assets were $67.1 million, decreases of 15% from $79.1 million at March 31, 2012, and 21% from $85.4 million at December 31, 2011. The decrease in nonperforming loans for the quarter was driven by payments of $7.2 million, charge-offs of $4.6 million and the return of $1.4 million of nonperforming loans to accrual status. In addition, noncovered other real estate owned (OREO) and other personal property owned (OPPO) were reduced by $5.5 million, as a result of $3.3 million in sales and $2.2 million in write-downs. These reductions were partially offset by new additions to nonperforming assets of $6.7 million, resulting in a net decrease in nonperforming, noncovered assets of $12.0 million.

For the second quarter of 2012, the company made a provision of $3.8 million for noncovered loan losses. For the comparable quarter last year the company made a provision of $2.2 million. The provision for noncovered loan losses were primarily driven by net charge offs experienced in the quarter and to a lesser extent by the $65 million in noncovered loan growth experienced during the quarter. The growth in noncovered loans was centered in commercial business loans and term commercial real estate loans.

The allowance for noncovered loan losses to period end loans was 2.14% at June 30, 2012 compared to 2.20% at March 31, 2012 and 2.26% at December 31, 2011.

Andy McDonald, Executive Vice President and Chief Credit Officer commented, “We are encouraged with our improving credit metrics, resulting in a decrease in our nonperforming assets for the past six consecutive quarters. However, with the ongoing lackluster national and international economies, we will continue to maintain a prudent level in our allowance for loan and lease losses.”


Second Quarter 2012 Operating Results

Quarter ended June 30, 2012

Net Interest Income
Net interest income for the second quarter of 2012 was $59.7 million, an increase of 21% from $49.4 million for the same quarter in 2011, primarily due to organic loan growth and the impact of our 2011 FDIC-assisted transactions.

Compared to the first quarter of 2012, net interest income decreased 11% from $67.1 million primarily due to the moderation of accretion income on acquired loans. During the second quarter of 2012, the Company recorded $15.0 million in accretion income on acquired loans compared to $22.4 million for the first quarter of 2012.
 
Noninterest Income (Loss)
Total noninterest income was $11.8 million for the second quarter of 2012, compared to $3.5 million a year earlier. The increase from the prior year was primarily due to the change in the FDIC loss-sharing asset, which accounted for $6.3 million of the increase. For the prior year period, the change in the FDIC loss-sharing asset was a $6.4 million reduction of noninterest income. For the second quarter of 2012, the change in the FDIC loss-sharing asset was a reduction of noninterest income of only $168 thousand due to the increase in income related to the impairment on the covered loans. Also contributing to the increase in noninterest income for the second quarter compared to the prior year was an increase in service charges and other fee income of $969 thousand. Service charges and other fee income increased due to the implementation of new fee schedules.
    

7



Compared to the first quarter of 2012, noninterest income increased 24%, from $9.6 million primarily due to the change in the FDIC loss-sharing asset, which accounted for $1.5 million of the increase. For the first quarter of 2012, the change in the FDIC loss-sharing asset was a reduction of noninterest income of $1.7 million, compared to $168 thousand for the second quarter of 2012.
    The following table reflects the components of the change in the FDIC loss-sharing asset for the three month periods indicated.

Noninterest Expense
Total noninterest expense for the second quarter of 2012 was $39.8 million, an increase of 7% from $37.2 million for the same quarter in 2011. The increase was attributable to the additional operating expenses of the three FDIC-assisted bank acquisitions completed since May 2011. The most significant increases were in compensation and employee benefits, occupancy, and data processing. Compensation and employee benefits increased $1.5 million compared to the same period in 2011, primarily due to an increase in the number of employees related to our acquisitions. Occupancy expense increased $703 thousand mainly as a result of the addition of 17 acquired branch locations. Data processing increased $638 thousand due to the additional data processing costs associated with the recent FDIC-assisted bank acquisitions. These increases were partially offset by a $656 thousand reduction in FDIC clawback liability expense and a $591 thousand decrease in the cost of operation of other real estate owned.

Compared to the first quarter of 2012, noninterest expense declined $4.5 million, or 10%. The decline was attributable to the decrease of $2.5 million in other noninterest expense, which was primarily due to lower OPPO expenses during the second quarter of 2012. Also contributing to the decrease was a reduction in the net cost of operation of other real estate owned of $1.3 million and a decrease of $1.0 million in compensation and benefits.
