FIRST FINANCIAL HOLDINGS, INC. ANNOUNCES THIRD QUARTER EARNINGS
AND DECLARES CASH DIVIDEND
CHARLESTON, SOUTH CAROLINA, October 25, 2012 – First Financial Holdings, Inc. (“First Financial,” NASDAQ: FFCH), the holding company for First Federal Bank (“First Federal”), announced today net income available to common shareholders of $5.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012, compared with $11.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and $113 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2011. Diluted net income per common share was $0.34 for the quarter ended September 30, 2012, compared with $0.70 for the prior quarter and $0.01 for the same quarter last year. The quarter ended June 30, 2012 included a $9.0 million after-tax gain on the acquisition of Plantation Federal Bank (“Plantation”) and a $3.1 million after-tax net charge related to repositioning the balance sheet.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, net income available to common shareholders was $18.1 million, compared with a net loss of $(45.2) million for the same period of 2011. Diluted net income per common share from continuing operations was $1.09, compared with a net loss of $(2.52) for the first nine months of 2011.
“First Financial is pleased to report another quarter of solid earnings as we continue to successfully execute on our strategic priorities,” said R. Wayne Hall, president and chief executive officer of First Financial and First Federal. “In addition to maintaining operating results, we are extremely pleased that credit metrics have remained stable since our bulk loan sale in October 2011. We believe that all of our initiatives have positioned us well to provide enhanced value to our shareholders.”
Highlights for the Quarter
|
·
|
Net interest margin increased 27 basis points to 4.35% at September 30, 2012.
|
|
·
|
Credit metrics remained stable with non-covered nonperforming assets to total assets of 1.42% at September 30, 2012, compared with 1.45% at June 30, 2012.
|
|
·
|
Net charge-offs totaled $7.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2012, compared with $6.7 million for the prior quarter, while the provision for loan losses was $4.5 million and $4.7 million for the quarters ended September 30, 2012 and June 30, 2012, respectively.

First Financial remains well capitalized at September 30, 2012 with total risk-based capital of 15.70%, Tier 1 risk-based capital of 14.42%, and Tier 1 leverage capital of 10.12%. Tangible common equity to tangible common assets ratio increased to 6.77% at quarter end.

Balance Sheet
Total assets at September 30, 2012 were $3.2 billion, a decrease of $58.7 million or 1.8% from June 30, 2012 and an increase of $39.2 million or 1.2% over September 30, 2011. The decrease from June 30, 2012 was primarily the result of lower portfolio loans due to payoffs and paydowns, and a decline in loans held for sale, partially offset by purchases of bank owned life insurance investments during the quarter. The increase in total assets over September 30, 2011 was principally due to the Plantation acquisition and the Liberty Savings Bank (“Liberty”) branch acquisitions in April 2012, partially offset by a decrease in investment securities and reductions in loans held for sale as a result of the bulk loan sale completed in October 2011.
Investment securities at September 30, 2012 totaled $276.6 million, a decrease of $16.8 million or 5.7% from June 30, 2012 and a decrease of $192.9 million or 41.1% from September 30, 2011. The decrease from June 30, 2012 was due to normal principal reductions and cash flows from called securities, partially offset by new security purchases. The decrease from September 30, 2011 was the result of the sale of $203.6 million of mortgage-backed securities during the June 30, 2012 quarter as part of a balance sheet repositioning initiative.
The following table summarizes the loan portfolio by major categories.

Total loans at September 30, 2012 decreased $58.1 million or 2.2% from June 30, 2012 and increased $219.0 million or 9.3% over September 30, 2011. The decrease from June 30, 2012 was a result of reductions in all three major loan categories due to several large payoffs and paydowns on commercial real estate and commercial land loans, higher loss claims on the Plantation portfolio, and normal cash flows. The marine portfolio increased $9.7 million or 16.2% due to strong demand for First Federal’s yacht loan product, which was introduced earlier in 2012. The increase over September 30, 2011 was primarily the result of the Plantation and Liberty acquisitions which occurred during the June 30, 2012 quarter.
The allowance for loan losses was 1.80% of total loans at September 30, 2012, compared with 1.85% of total loans at June 30, 2012 and 2.31% of total loans at September 30, 2011. The decrease in the allowance ratio from June 30, 2012 was due to the continued improvement in historical loss factors and stable credit metrics since the bulk loan sale in October 2011. In addition, the change in the allowance ratio from September 30, 2011 was affected by acquiring loans in the Plantation and Liberty acquisitions that are carried at fair value and do not currently have an associated allowance. The allowance for loan losses at September 30, 2012 was 1.99% of loans excluding loans covered under a purchase and assumption loss share agreement (“loss share agreements”) with the FDIC (“covered loans”), and represented 1.2 times coverage of the non-covered nonperforming loans.
At September 30, 2012, loans held for sale totaled $53.8 million, a decrease of $18.6 million or 25.7% from June 30, 2012 and a decrease of $41.1 million or 43.3% from September 30, 2011. The decrease from June 30, 2012 was related to the volume of mortgage origination and timing of sales closed in the secondary market during the current quarter. Loans held for sale at September 30, 2011 were comprised of $40.8 million in residential mortgage loans awaiting sale in the secondary market and $54.1 million of loans in the bulk loan sale pool. The decrease from September 30, 2011 was principally caused by completing the bulk loan sale in October 2011, partially offset by higher residential mortgage loans held for sale due to additional volume from the correspondent lending expansion.
The FDIC indemnification asset, net at September 30, 2012 was $75.0 million, a decrease of $2.3 million or 3.0% from June 30, 2012 and an increase of $24.6 million or 48.7% over September 30, 2011. The decrease from June 30, 2012 was due to the receipt of claims reimbursement from the FDIC, partially offset by normal accretion. The increase over September 30, 2011 was the result of establishing a $34.3 million indemnification asset during the second quarter of 2012 due to the Plantation transaction, as well as normal accretion of the existing indemnification asset, partially offset by the receipt of claims reimbursement from the FDIC. Additionally, First Federal began to amortize a potential impairment on the FDIC indemnification asset related to the Cape Fear transaction as the performance of the underlying loans has been better than originally projected and may result in lower future reimbursements under the loss share agreement. In addition, the accretable yield on the Cape Fear covered loans was adjusted during the current quarter, which contributed to the increase in net interest income and significantly offset the amortization expense related to the FDIC indemnification asset.

Bank owned life insurance totaled $50.2 million at September 30, 2012, an increase of $40.2 million over June 30, 2012 and an increase of $50.2 million over September 30, 2011. The increases were the result of establishing a bank owned life insurance program on certain corporate officers as part of a strategy to reduce total benefits costs.
Other assets totaled $83.0 million at September 30, 2012, a decrease of $20.1 million or 19.5% from June 30, 2012 and a decrease of $35.6 million or 30.0% from September 30, 2011. The decreases were principally due to current tax adjustments recorded, federal tax refunds received during the twelve month period ended September 30, 2012 and a $2.1 million write-down of the state deferred tax asset during the first quarter of 2012 after First Federal’s conversion to a South Carolina state-chartered commercial bank related to a difference in applicable South Carolina tax laws for banks versus thrifts. In addition, other real estate owned (“OREO”) at September 30, 2012 declined $6.6 million and $4.6 million from June 30, 2012 and September 30, 2011, respectively, as sales of properties outpaced foreclosures.
Core deposits, which include checking, savings, and money market accounts, totaled $1.6 billion at September 30, 2012, an increase of $26.2 million or 1.6% over June 30, 2012 and an increase of $395.1 million or 32.3% over September 30, 2011. The increases were primarily the result of the Plantation and Liberty transactions as well as the introduction of new retail deposit products and sales processes during 2012. Time deposits at September 30, 2012 totaled $1.0 billion, a decrease of $112.6 million or 10.2% from June 30, 2012 and a decrease of $81.2 million or 7.5% from September 30, 2011. The decreases were the effect of planned reductions in maturing high rate retail and wholesale time deposits, partially offset by the Plantation and Liberty transactions.
Advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) at September 30, 2012 totaled $253.0 million, an increase of $20.0 million or 8.6% over June 30, 2012 and a decrease of $305.0 million or 54.7% from September 30, 2011. The increase over June 30, 2012 was essentially caused by short-term funding needs. The decrease from September 30, 2011 was primarily the effect of prepaying $125.0 million of long-term FHLB advances during the June 30, 2012 quarter as part of a balance sheet repositioning initiative, as well as a shift in funding mix due to the organic growth of core deposits and the acquisition of low-cost deposits from Plantation and Liberty.
Shareholders’ equity at September 30, 2012 was $292.5 million, an increase of $5.2 million or 1.8% over June 30, 2012 and an increase of $24.0 million or 8.9% over September 30, 2011. The increases were due to the effect of net operating results, partially offset by a reduction in accumulated other comprehensive income related to investment securities valuations during the last twelve months. Both First Financial’s and First Federal’s regulatory capital ratios are in excess of “well-capitalized” minimums, as presented in the following table.

Total nonperforming assets at September 30, 2012 decreased $7.5 million or 9.6% from June 30, 2012 and decreased $37.9 million or 34.9% from September 30, 2011. The decrease from June 30, 2012 was primarily the result of a $6.6 million reduction in OREO due to continued sales and write-downs. Total nonperforming loans decreased from the linked quarter as a result of ongoing active management of special assets. The decrease from September 30, 2011 was principally due to resolution of several nonperforming commercial loans, the October 2011 bulk loan sale of nonperforming loans held for sale, and a decline in OREO, partially offset by increases in nonperforming residential mortgage and consumer loans. Covered nonperforming loans totaled $10.0 million at September 30, 2012, essentially unchanged from June 30, 2012 and a decrease of $9.0 million from September 30, 2011. Covered OREO totaled $14.6 million at September 30, 2012, a decrease of $5.4 million from June 30, 2012 and an increase of $5.9 million from September 30, 2011. The increase from September 30, 2011 was due to properties acquired in the Plantation transaction, partially offset by a decline in the level of legacy OREO properties due to sales and writedowns.

Quarterly Results of Operations
First Financial reported net income from continuing operations of $6.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012, compared with $12.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and $2.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011.
Net interest income
Net interest margin, on a fully tax-equivalent basis, was 4.35% for the quarter ended September 30, 2012, as compared with 4.08% for the quarter ended June 30, 2012 and 3.87% for the quarter ended September 30, 2011. The increase over the linked quarter was primarily the result of a full-quarter impact of the accretion and amortization of purchase accounting adjustments resulting from the Plantation acquisition as well as improved performance on Cape Fear loans, a lower cost of funds as maturing time deposits are replaced with core deposits and the funding mix continues to shift from borrowings, and higher yields on investments due to acceleration of accretion on called investment securities. The increase over the same quarter last year was essentially caused by the same factors, but at a greater magnitude due to the full quarter effect.
Net interest income for the quarter ended September 30, 2012 was $33.2 million, an increase of $1.5 million or 4.7% over the prior quarter and an increase of $4.1 million or 14.2% over the same quarter last year. The increases were primarily the effect of higher levels of average earning assets from the Plantation and Liberty acquisitions.
Provision for loan losses
After determining what First Financial believes is an adequate allowance for loan losses based on the estimated risk inherent in the loan portfolio, the provision for loan losses is calculated based on the net effect of the change in the allowance for loan losses and net charge-offs. The provision for loan losses was $4.5 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2012, essentially unchanged from the linked quarter and a decrease of $4.4 million or 49.3% from the same quarter last year. The decrease from the same period last year was related to the continued improvement in historical loss trends and general stabilization of credit metrics through September 30, 2012.

Page 6 |
Noninterest income totaled $14.5 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2012, a decrease of $18.0 million from the prior quarter and an increase of $310 thousand or 2.2% over the same quarter last year. The decrease from the linked quarter was primarily the result of the $14.6 million gain on the acquisition of Plantation, and a $3.5 million gain on the sale of investment securities related to the balance sheet repositioning, which were recorded in the June 30, 2012 quarter. Mortgage and other loan income decreased $311 thousand or 7.1% due in large part to unfavorable hedge adjustments on both the mortgage servicing rights and the mortgage pipeline hedges in the current quarter, partially offset by higher gains on sales of residential mortgage loans into the secondary market during the current quarter as volumes increased. Service charges on deposit accounts continue to trend upward due to a higher number of transaction accounts. Brokerage fees decreased $220 thousand or 25.1% due to seasonal trends with lower sales volume in the current quarter.
In addition to the two gains discussed above, other key factors contributing to the increase over the same quarter last year included higher service charges on deposit accounts ($576 thousand) due to higher transaction-related revenue from increases in both volume and fees, as well as higher mortgage and other loan income ($1.3 million) due to higher residential mortgage origination levels related to the continued low interest rate environment and the addition of correspondent lenders. The increases were partially offset by the effect of a $1.9 million net gain recorded in the same quarter last year related to the resolution of some of the loans previously identified as part of the bulk loan pool.
Noninterest expense
Noninterest expense totaled $33.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2012, a decrease of $6.2 million or 15.9% from the prior quarter and an increase of $3.4 million or 11.6% over the same quarter last year. The June 30, 2012 quarter included an $8.5 million termination charge on the prepayment of FHLB advances as part of the balance sheet repositioning. Excluding the termination charge, noninterest expenses for the June 30, 2012 quarter totaled $30.7 million, which is $2.3 million or 7.5% lower than the current quarter. All expense categories increased over both prior periods due to the full-quarter impact of the Plantation and Liberty operations. In addition, the increase over the linked quarter was due to higher salaries and employee benefits, OREO expenses, other loan expense, and other expense, partially offset by lower occupancy costs. Salaries and employee benefits increased due to higher group insurance costs related to the timing of claims. OREO expenses increased $896 thousand due to higher write-downs on OREO properties. Other loan expense increased $337 thousand due to higher foreclosure-related expenses. Other expenses increased $844 thousand primarily the result of beginning to amortize a projected impairment on the FDIC indemnification asset related to the Cape Fear transaction ($563 thousand this quarter) as well as a post-sale settlement of $487 thousand on one of the insurance agencies sold during 2011. Occupancy costs decreased $600 thousand due to expenses associated with closing four in-store branches during the previous quarter.
In addition to the impact of the Plantation and Liberty transactions, the increase over the same quarter of the prior year was related to professional services ($391 thousand), other loan expense ($630 thousand), and other expense ($2.4 million), partially offset by lower OREO expenses ($2.1 million). The increase in professional fees was a direct result of acquisition expenses related to Plantation and Liberty and other strategic initiatives. The increase in other loan expense was due to higher foreclosure-related costs as well as higher loan origination and servicing costs. In addition to the factors mentioned above, other expense increased due to conversion-related expenses associated with migrating Plantation customers to First Federal’s core operating systems during the current quarter. The decrease in OREO expenses was primarily the effect of fewer write-downs of OREO properties, recognition of more gains on the sales of properties, and less OREO related expense.
Income Taxes
The income tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2012 totaled $3.5 million, a decrease of $4.2 million from the linked quarter and an increase of $1.6 million over the same quarter last year. The quarter ended June 30, 2012 included the establishment of a $5.6 million deferred tax liability related to the gain on the Plantation acquisition, partially offset by a $1.9 million tax benefit related to the balance sheet repositioning. In addition, the variances from both prior periods were the result of the change in pre-tax income. The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2012 was 34.53%, compared with 38.00% and 39.65% for the quarters ended June 30, 2012 and September 30, 2011 respectively. The decreases were principally due to higher tax-exempt income resulting from purchasing bank owned life insurance.
Year-to-Date Results of Operations
First Financial reported net income from continuing operations of $21.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared with a net loss of $38.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011.

Page 7 |
Net interest margin, on a fully tax-equivalent basis, was 4.09% for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared with 3.84% for the same period of 2011. The increase was primarily the result of average rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities declining 35 basis points while interest-earning asset yields declined only 9 basis points. Contributing to the decline in interest-bearing liabilities was the replacement of high cost maturing time deposits with low-cost core deposits generated organically as well as acquired from Plantation and Liberty.
Net interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 totaled $93.2 million, an increase of $5.4 million or 6.1% over the same period of 2011. The increase was essentially caused by the Planation and Liberty transactions.
Provision for loan losses
The provision for loan losses was $16.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared with $99.4 million for the same period of 2011. The decrease was primarily the result of $65.7 million recorded in 2011 related to the reclassification of loans to loans held for sale, as well as improvement in historical loss trends and credit metrics through September 30, 2012.
Noninterest income
Noninterest income totaled $60.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, an increase of $23.3 million over the same period of 2011. The increase was principally caused by the $14.6 million gain on the Plantation acquisition and the $3.5 million gain on the sale of investment securities related to the balance sheet repositioning strategy. In addition, mortgage and other loan income increased $6.0 million and service charges on deposit accounts increased $2.1 million, both due to an increased volume of transactions. The increases were partially offset by the $1.9 million gain on sold loan pool, as discussed above.
Noninterest expense
Noninterest expense totaled $101.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, an increase of $12.7 million or 14.3% over the same period of 2011. The increase was primarily the result of the $8.5 million FHLB termination charge related to the balance sheet repositioning strategy. Other significant variances included higher occupancy costs ($1.0 million), professional services ($1.2 million), other loan expense ($1.2 million), and other expenses ($4.2 million), partially offset by lower salaries and employee benefits ($1.5 million), FDIC insurance and regulatory fees ($462 thousand), and a goodwill impairment in 2011 ($630 thousand). In addition to the factors discussed above for the quarterly results, other expenses increased due to deposit rewards management expenses related to higher customer debit card usage. The decrease in salaries and employee benefits was primarily the effect of compensation agreements entered into during the prior year. The decrease in FDIC insurance and regulatory fees was due to the new assessment methodology implemented by the FDIC during 2011. The variances in the other categories were essentially caused by the factors discussed above in the quarterly analysis.
Income Taxes
The income tax expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 totaled $15.5 million, an increase of $39.8 million over the prior year. The increase was primarily the result of the change in pre-tax income, a $2.1 million write-down of the state deferred tax asset in the first quarter of 2012, and the establishment of a $5.6 million deferred tax liability related to the gain on the Plantation acquisition in the second quarter of 2012. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was 42.43%, compared with 38.54% for the same period last year. The increase was principally caused by the state deferred tax asset write-down, partially offset by higher tax-exempt income related to bank owned life insurance.

Additional information about First Financial is available at www.firstfinancialholdings.com.
Discontinued Operations Financial Statement Presentation
As a result of First Financial’s sales of its insurance agency subsidiary, First Southeast Insurance Services, Inc., which was completed on June 1, 2011, and its managing general insurance agency subsidiary, Kimbrell Insurance Group, Inc., which was completed on September 30, 2011, the financial condition, operating results, and the gain or loss on the sales, net of transaction costs and taxes, for these subsidiaries have been segregated from the financial condition and operating results of First Financial’s continuing operations throughout this release and, as such, are presented as discontinued operations. While all prior periods have been revised retrospectively to align with this treatment, these changes do not affect First Financial’s reported consolidated financial condition or operating results for any of the prior periods.
Non-GAAP Financial Information
In addition to results presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), this press release includes non-GAAP financial measures such as the efficiency ratio, the tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio, tangible common book value per share, and pre-tax pre-provision earnings. First Financial believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide additional information that is useful to investors in understanding its underlying performance, business, and performance trends and such measures help facilitate performance comparisons with others in the banking industry. Non-GAAP measures have inherent limitations, are not required to be uniformly applied, and are not audited. Readers should be aware of these limitations and should be cautious to their use of such measures. To mitigate these limitations, First Financial has procedures in place to ensure that these measures are calculated using the appropriate GAAP or regulatory components in their entirety and to ensure that its performance is properly reflected to facilitate consistent period-to-period comparisons. Although management believes the above non-GAAP financial measures enhance investors’ understanding of First Financial’s business and performance, these non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for GAAP basis financial measures.
In accordance with industry standards, certain designated net interest income amounts are presented on a taxable equivalent basis, including the calculation used in the efficiency ratio.
First Financial believes the exclusion of goodwill and other intangible assets facilitates the comparison of results for ongoing business operations. The tangible common equity (“TCE”) ratio and tangible book value per common share (“TBV”) have become a focus of some investors, analysts and banking regulators. Management believes these measures may assist investors in analyzing First Financial’s capital position absent the effects of intangible assets and preferred stock. Because TCE and TBV are not formally defined by GAAP or codified in the federal banking regulations, these measures are considered to be non-GAAP financial measures. However, analysts and banking regulators may assess First Financial’s capital adequacy using TCE or TBV, therefore, management believes that it is useful to provide investors the ability to assess its capital adequacy on the same basis.
First Financial believes that pre-tax, pre-provision earnings are a useful measure in assessing its core operating performance, particularly during times of economic stress. This measurement, as defined by management, represents total revenue (net interest income plus noninterest income) less noninterest expense. As recent results for the banking industry demonstrate, credit write-downs, loan charge-offs, and related provisions for loan losses can vary significantly from period to period, making a measure that helps isolate the impact of credit costs on profitability important to investors.
Please refer to the Selected Financial Information table and the Non-GAAP Reconciliation table later in this release for additional information.
