RALEIGH, N.C., July 30, 2013 – VantageSouth Bancshares, Inc. (NYSE MKT: VSB), the holding company for VantageSouth Bank, today reported unaudited financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2013. Highlights for the second quarter of 2013 include the following:
• | Net income was $3.7 million in 2Q 2013 compared to a net loss of $806 thousand in 1Q 2013 and net income of $338 thousand in 2Q 2012. |

• | Effective July 22, 2013, the Company transferred the listing of its common stock to the NYSE MKT, LLC under the ticker symbol "VSB" and changed its name from Crescent Financial Bancshares, Inc. to VantageSouth Bancshares, Inc. |
"We completed the ECB merger and system conversion in the second quarter while continuing to build on our core business momentum," stated Scott Custer, CEO of the Company. Mr. Custer continued, "The operating scale provided by the ECB merger coupled with the hard work of our top-notch associates propelled the Company in the second quarter and allowed us to improve our financial performance in almost every aspect, including revenue growth, core loan growth, net interest margin expansion, improved asset quality, and better operating efficiency. We are excited about our new markets, associates, clients, and stockholders in eastern North Carolina and look forward to serving the banking needs of these communities for many years to come. By focusing on constantly providing excellent client service and through a targeted and disciplined acquisition, we made some important strides this quarter in becoming the bank of choice for businesses, business owners and professionals in our markets."
ECB Merger
On April 1, 2013, the Company completed the merger of ECB with and into VSB (the "ECB merger"). The ECB merger was completed pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of September 25, 2012 (the "Merger Agreement"). Immediately following the ECB merger, The East Carolina Bank, a wholly-owned subsidiary of ECB, was merged with and into VantageSouth Bank. Upon the closing of the ECB merger, each outstanding share of ECB common stock was converted into the right to receive 3.55 shares of VSB common stock. The aggregate merger consideration consisted of 10,312,186 shares of VSB common stock. Based upon the $3.94 per share closing price of VSB common stock on March 28, 2013, the aggregate purchase price totaled $40.6 million.
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Company agreed to exchange each share of ECB’s Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series A, into one share of VSB Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series B. At the closing of the ECB merger, the Company also issued a warrant to purchase 514,693.2 shares of VSB common stock to the U.S. Department of the Treasury (“Treasury”) in exchange for the warrant issued by ECB to Treasury on January 16, 2009 to purchase 144,984 shares of ECB’s common stock. The warrant issuance reflects the exchange ratio associated with the ECB merger.
In connection with the ECB merger, the Company applied the acquisition method of accounting to ECB's balance sheet. Therefore, all acquired assets and liabilities were adjusted to fair value, and the historical allowance for loan losses was eliminated. The Company recorded a one-time acquisition gain of $8.2 million in 2Q 2013, which reflected the amount by which the fair value of acquired net assets exceeded the combined purchase price and fair value of non-controlling interests. The Company has a one-year measurement period from the acquisition date to finalize the recorded fair values of net assets acquired. The acquisition gain may change if initial fair value estimates are revised within the measurement period. The acquisition of ECB increased the Company's total assets by 77 percent, deposits by 81 percent, and stockholders' equity by 39 percent at the merger date. Therefore, the Company's results of operations and financial position were significantly impacted in 2Q 2013 by the ECB merger.
VantageSouth Bank Merger into Crescent
On November 30, 2012, VantageSouth Bank ("Legacy VantageSouth") was merged with and into Crescent State Bank, a wholly-owned banking subsidiary of Crescent Financial Bancshares, Inc. ("Crescent"), and the combined bank was re-branded as VantageSouth Bank. This merger was a combination of commonly controlled companies since both banks were subsidiaries of Piedmont Community Bank Holdings, Inc. ("Piedmont"), and it was accounted for in a manner similar to a pooling of interests transaction. Thus, the Company's financial statements were retrospectively adjusted to combine the financial condition and results of operations of Crescent and Legacy VantageSouth from the date the two companies became commonly controlled.
Further, because of the application of push-down accounting to the books of Legacy VantageSouth on February 1, 2012 when Piedmont purchased the bank's remaining non-controlling equity interests, reporting periods prior to this date are denoted as "2012 Predecessor Period" (January 1 to January 31, 2012) and periods after this date are denoted as "2012 Successor Period" (February 1 to June 30, 2012).
Results of Operations
2Q 2013 compared to 2Q 2012
Net income was $3.7 million in the second quarter of 2013 compared to $338 thousand in the second quarter of 2012. After preferred stock dividends and accretion, net income available to common stockholders was $3.0 million, or $0.07 per common share, in the second quarter of 2013 compared to a net loss of $29 thousand, or $0.00 per common share, in the second quarter of 2012. Operating earnings, which excludes securities gains, the ECB acquisition gain, and merger and conversion costs, improved to $2.8 million in second quarter 2013 from $360 thousand in the second quarter of 2012 as the Company improved its financial performance following the ECB merger by increasing net interest income, lowering provision for loan losses, increasing non-interest income, and by reducing its operating efficiency ratio. Similarly, pre-tax, pre-provision operating earnings increased to $6.0 million in the second quarter of 2013 from $2.2 million in the second quarter of 2012.
Year-to-Date
Net income was $2.9 million in the first six months of 2013 while net income was $395 thousand in the 2012 Successor Period and $529 thousand in the 2012 Predecessor Period. After dividends and accretion on preferred stock, net income available to common stockholders was $1.8 million, or $0.04 per common share, in the first six months of 2013, while net loss attributable to common stockholders was $216 thousand, or $0.01 per common share, in the 2012 Successor Period, and net income available to common stockholders was $407 thousand, or $0.01 per common share, in the 2012 Predecessor Period.
Net Interest Income
2Q 2013 compared to 2Q 2012
Net interest income was $20.4 million in the second quarter of 2013 compared to $10.0 million in the second quarter of 2012. The increase in net interest income was the result of a significant increase in earning assets from organic business activity and the ECB merger as well as an improved net interest margin. Average earning assets increased from $937.7 million in the 2Qsecond quarter of 2012 to $1.75 billion in the second quarter of 2013. Over this period, average loan balances increased by $611.5 million, of which $466.7 million was from acquired ECB loans, and average investment securities balances increased by $222.2 million. In addition, average deposits increased by $768.6 million, of which $736.1 million was from the ECB merger.
The Company's net interest margin expanded from 4.33 percent in the second quarter of 2012 to 4.67 percent in the second quarter of 2013. The improved net interest margin was due to lower costs on interest-bearing liabilities and slightly higher yields on earning assets. The yield on earning assets increased from 5.09 percent in the second quarter of 2012 to 5.12 percent in the second quarter of 2013, which reflected increased loan yields partially offset by lower yields on investment securities. The increase in loan yields was a product of higher acquired ECB loan yields, which included a favorable impact from acquisition accounting fair value adjustments, partially offset by lower prevailing market loan rates on new loan originations. Securities yields declined as the Company reinvested principal paydowns and proceeds from sales at lower current market rates and as yields on the acquired ECB securities portfolio were lowered to current market rates.
The cost of interest-bearing liabilities declined from 0.91 percent in the second quarter of 2012 to 0.51 percent in the second quarter of 2013, which primarily reflected a lower cost of deposits as the Company adjusted interest rates it pays on certain checking and money market accounts in the second quarter of 2013 and incorporated the ECB deposit base. Further, in order to fund loan growth and to hedge the risk of rising interest rates on the Company's financial condition, the Company increased its level of borrowings in the current quarter in the form of FHLB advances which also lowered overall funding costs.
In the second quarter of 2013, the Company entered into a series of forward starting interest rate swaps on $75.0 million of short-term FHLB advances. Beginning in the second quarter of 2015, these interest rate swaps will exchange the short-term variable interest rate the Company is to pay on the advances with fixed interest rates ranging from 1.65 to 1.72 percent. These interest rate swaps are considered effective cash flow hedges; therefore, changes in the fair value of the hedges, net of tax, are recorded to other comprehensive income. The purpose of these cash flow hedges is to mitigate the risk that potentially rising interest rates pose to the Company's tangible book value since the fair value of investment securities generally declines in a rising interest rate environment and the fair value of these cash flow hedges generally increases in a rising interest rate environment. In the second quarter of 2013, the fair value of the investment securities portfolio declined net of tax by $6.5 million, or $0.14 per outstanding common share, primarily due to increases in market interest rates, while the fair value of cash flow hedges increased net of tax by $2.4 million, or $0.05 per outstanding common share, thus partially reducing the negative impact of lower securities values to tangible book value. The Company's management and board of directors actively manage interest rate risk, and based on its interest rate risk modeling, the Company believes its balance sheet is appropriately positioned for changing interest rate scenarios in the short term and long term.
Income accretion on purchased loans totaled $6.2 million in the second quarter of 2013, which consisted of $3.9 million of accretion on purchased credit-impaired ("PCI") loans and $2.3 million of accretion income on purchased non-impaired loans. PCI loan accretion represents all interest income recorded for those loans in the period while accretion income on purchased non-impaired loans represents accretion of the fair value discount on the effective yield method, which increased interest income above contractual yields. Time deposit fair value amortization totaled $966 thousand, and net amortization of short-term borrowings and long-term debt totaled $18 thousand, which reduced interest expense. Acquisition accounting amortization reduced the Company's cost of interest-bearing liabilities by 0.26 percent in the second quarter of 2013.
Year-to-Date
Net interest income in the first six months of 2013 totaled $30.4 million while net interest income totaled $16.9 million in the 2012 Successor Period and $3.6 million in the 2012 Predecessor Period. Average earning assets totaled $1.35 billion in the first six months of 2013, which was a significant increase from $945.6 million in the 2012 Successor Period and $934.3 million in the 2012 Predecessor Period. The increase in average interest-earning assets was primarily the result of assets acquired in the ECB merger as well as organic loan growth.
Net interest margin was 4.53 percent in the first six months of 2013, which was an increase from 4.36 percent in the 2012 Successor Period but a slight decrease from 4.55 percent in the 2012 Predecessor Period. The increase in net interest margin from the 2012 Successor Period was primarily due to a reduction in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities which fell from 0.91 percent in the 2012 Successor Period to 0.60 percent in the first six months of 2013. Declining yields on interest-earning assets partially offset the improvement in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities due to the origination of new loans at lower current market rates and the reinvestment of principal paydowns and proceeds from sales of securities at lower current market rates. The average yield on loans decreased from 6.08 percent in the 2012 Successor Period and 6.15 percent in the 2012 Predecessor Period to 5.97 percent in the first six months of 2013, and the average yield on investment securities declined from 2.70 percent in the 2012 Successor Period and 2.74 percent in the 2012 Predecessor Period to 2.15 percent in the first six months of 2013.
Income accretion on purchased loans totaled $9.7 million in the first six months of 2013, which consisted of $7.3 million of accretion on purchased credit-impaired ("PCI") loans and $2.4 million of accretion income on purchased non-impaired loans. Time deposit fair value amortization totaled $1.4 million, which reduced interest expense, while net accretion of short-term borrowings and long-term debt totaled $19 thousand, which increased interest expense. Time deposit amortization, net of accretion on short-term borrowings and long-term debt reduced the Company's cost of interest-bearing liabilities by 0.24 percent in the first six months of 2013. Income accretion on purchased loans totaled $6.9 million and $1.6 million in the 2012 Successor Period and 2012 Predecessor Period, respectively. Net amortization of fair value premiums on interest-bearing liabilities in the 2012 Successor Period and 2012 Predecessor Period totaled $1.4 million and $298 thousand, respectively, which reduced the Company's cost of interest-bearing liabilities by 0.42 percent and 0.45 percent, respectively.
Provision for Loan Losses and Asset Quality
2Q 2013 compared to 2Q 2012
Provision for loan losses was $1.5 million in the second quarter of 2013 compared to $2.0 million in the second quarter of 2012. The allowance for loan and lease losses ("ALLL") and related provision were calculated for the Company's following three portfolio categories: non-acquired loans, purchased non-impaired loans, and PCI loans. In the second quarter of 2013, the non-acquired loan provision was $1.5 million, purchased non-impaired loan provision was $356 thousand, and the Company recognized a PCI loan provision recovery of $397 thousand, which reduced the ALLL.
The following table summarizes the changes in the ALLL for each loan category in 2Q 2013 and 2Q 2012.

The reduction in provision for loan losses in the second quarter of 2013 compared to the prior year second quarter was primarily due to improvements in expected cash flows on the Company's PCI loans, which generated a net provision recovery of $397 thousand in the second quarter of 2013, and lower provision on purchased non-impaired loans. The lower provision on purchased loans was partially offset by higher provision on the non-acquired loan portfolio as the balance of this portfolio increased by $137.7 million in the second quarter of 2013, which was a significantly higher growth rate than in the prior year.
The ALLL was $6.4 million, or 0.49 percent of total loans as of June 30, 2013 compared to $5.5 million, or 0.70 percent of total loans as of March 31, 2013 and $4.0 million, or 0.52 percent of total loans as of December 31, 2012. Adjusted ALLL, which includes the ALLL and net acquisition accounting fair value adjustments for acquired loans, represented 3.70 percent of total loans as of June 30, 2013 compared to 2.54 percent as of March 31, 2013 and 2.70 percent as of December 31, 2012.
Nonperforming loans as a percentage of total loans was 1.14 percent as of June 30, 2013, which was a decline from 1.48 percent as of March 31, 2013 and 1.67 percent as of December 31, 2012. Total nonperforming assets (which include nonaccrual loans, loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing, and foreclosed assets) as a percentage of total assets as of June 30, 2013 was 1.33 percent, which was a decline from 1.48 percent as of March 31, 2013 and 1.71 percent as of December 31, 2012. The decline in nonperforming assets was due to the ECB merger as well as the Company's continuing efforts to resolve legacy problem assets while maximizing value. These resolution efforts have included a combination of asset sales through various channels and successful loan workout plans.
Year-to-Date
Provision for loan losses was $3.4 million in the first six months of 2013 while provision for loan losses totaled $2.9 million in the 2012 Successor Period and $195 thousand in the 2012 Predecessor Period.

Non-Interest Income
2Q 2013 compared to 2Q 2012
Non-interest income totaled $13.1 million in the second quarter of 2013, which was a significant increase from $2.4 million in the second quarter of 2012. Non-interest income in the current quarter included a one-time acquisition gain of $8.2 million related to the ECB merger, which reflected the amount by which the fair value of acquired net assets exceeded the combined purchase price and fair value of non-controlling interests.
Service charges and fees on deposit accounts increased by $968 thousand primarily due to the addition of deposit accounts acquired in the ECB merger. Mortgage banking income increased by $326 thousand with the addition of mortgage lenders in eastern North Carolina and improving residential real estate markets which provided more lending opportunities for home purchases. Government-guaranteed lending income, which includes gains on sales of the guaranteed portion of certain SBA loans originated by the Company as well as servicing fees on previously sold SBA loans, increased by $486 thousand. The Company sells the guaranteed portion of certain SBA loans in the secondary market without recourse and recognizes gains as those loans are sold at a premium.
Year-to-Date
Non-interest income totaled $16.6 million in the first six months of 2013 while non-interest income totaled $3.9 million in the 2012 Successor Period and $657 thousand in the 2012 Predecessor Period. Non-interest income in the current year-to-date period included a one-time acquisition gain of $8.2 million related to the ECB merger. Securities gains totaled $1.2 million in the first six months of 2013 as the Company recognized gains upon selling the majority of its municipal bonds for balance sheet management and tax purposes. Additionally, service charges and fees on deposits, mortgage banking income, government-guaranteed lending income, and bank-owned life insurance income totaled $2.0 million, $1.5 million, $2.2 million, and $505 thousand, respectively, in the first six months of 2013.
Non-Interest Expense
2Q 2013 compared to 2Q 2012
Non-interest expense totaled $31.1 million in the second quarter of 2013 which was a significant increase from $10.3 million in the second quarter of 2012. The increase in expenses was primarily due to $12.0 million in merger and conversion-related costs in the second quarter of 2013, which included professional fees, severance, and other expenses required to close the ECB merger as well as costs to convert ECB's data processing, technology, signage, and branch network to the Company's integrated platform. Additionally, salaries and employee benefits, occupancy and equipment, data processing, and other non-interest expense categories increased primarily due to the ECB merger which added employees, branch and other facilities, and equipment to the Company's expense base. The Company's operating efficiency ratio, which excludes non-recurring merger and conversion costs, improved from 82.8 percent in the second quarter of 2012 to 75.9 percent in the second quarter of 2013. Much of the improvement in the operating efficiency ratio was due to increased scale and operating leverage provided by the ECB merger combined with cost cutting measures implemented during the second quarter of 2013 which will begin to fully benefit the Company in the third quarter of 2013. For example, full time equivalent employees for the combined Company decreased from 520 as of March 31, 2013 to 485 as of June 30, 2013.
Year-to-Date
Non-interest expense totaled $43.8 million in the first six months of 2013 while non-interest expense totaled $17.7 million in the 2012 Successor Period and $3.2 million in the 2012 Predecessor Period. Expenses in the first six months of 2013 were significantly impacted by ECB merger and system conversion costs, which totaled $13.6 million, as well as a higher general expense run rate following the ECB merger. The Company's operating efficiency ratio was 78.2 percent in the first six months of 2013 compared to 82.9 percent in the 2012 Successor Period and 74.7 percent in the 2012 Predecessor Period.
Income Taxes
The Company’s income tax benefit was $2.8 million in the second quarter of 2013 compared to $259 thousand in the second quarter of 2012. Taxable income is calculated using pre-tax net income adjusted for the one-time acquisition gain in the second quarter of 2013, non-taxable municipal investment income, bank-owned life insurance income, and non-deductible merger costs. The Company’s income tax benefit was $3.2 million in the first six months of 2013. The income tax benefit was $255 thousand in the 2012 Successor Period, and income tax expense was $270 thousand in the 2012 Predecessor Period.
Linked Quarter Comparison
Net income was $3.7 million in the second quarter of 2013 compared to a net loss of $806 thousand in the first quarter of 2013. After preferred stock dividends and accretion, net income available to common stockholders was $3.0 million, or $0.07 per common share, in the second quarter of 2013 compared to a net loss attributable to common stockholders of $1.2 million, or $0.03 per common share, in the first quarter of 2013. Operating earnings, which excludes securities gains, the ECB acquisition gain, and merger and conversion costs, improved to $2.8 million in the second quarter of 2013 from a loss of $422 thousand in the first quarter of 2013 as the Company improved its financial performance following the ECB merger by increasing net interest income, lowering provision for loan losses, increasing non-interest income, and by reducing its operating efficiency ratio. Similarly, pre-tax, pre-provision earnings increased to $6.0 million in the second quarter of 2013 from $1.2 million in the first quarter of 2013.
Net interest income was $20.4 million in the second quarter of 2013 compared to $9.9 million in the first quarter of 2013. The increase in net interest income was the result of a significant increase in earning assets from organic business activity and the ECB merger as well as an improved net interest margin. Average earning assets increased from $956.1 million in the first quarter of 2013 to $1.75 billion in the second quarter of 2013. Over this period, average loan balances increased by $533.2 million, of which $466.7 million was from acquired ECB loans, and average investment securities balances increased by $250.9 million. In addition, average deposits increased by $751.0 million, of which $736.1 million was from the ECB merger.
The Company's net interest margin expanded from 4.24 percent in the first quarter of 2013 to 4.67 percent in the second quarter of 2013. The improved net interest margin was due to lower costs on interest-bearing liabilities and higher yields on earning assets. The cost of interest-bearing liabilities declined from 0.76 percent in the first quarter of 2013 to 0.51 percent in the second quarter of 2013, which primarily reflected a lower cost of deposits as the Company adjusted interest rates it pays on certain checking and money market accounts in the second quarter of 2013 and incorporated the ECB deposit base. Further, in order to fund loan growth and to hedge the risk of rising interest rates on the Company's tangible book value, the Company increased its level of borrowings in the current quarter in the form of FHLB advances, which also lowered overall funding costs in the quarter. Core net interest margin, which excludes the impact of acquisition accounting, was 3.64 percent in the second quarter of 2013 compared to 3.63 percent in the first quarter of 2013.
Provision for loan losses was $1.5 million in the second quarter of 2013 compared to $1.9 million in the first quarter of 2013. The reduction in provision for loan losses in the second quarter of 2013 was primarily due to improvements in expected cash flows on the Company's PCI loans, which generated a net provision recovery of $397 thousand in the second quarter of 2013, and lower provision on purchased non-impaired loans. The lower provision on purchased loans was partially offset by higher provision on the non-acquired loan portfolio as the balance of this portfolio increased by $137.7 million in the second quarter of 2013, which was a significantly higher growth rate than in the prior quarter.
Non-interest income totaled $13.1 million in the second quarter of 2013, which was a significant increase from $3.5 million in the first quarter of 2013. Non-interest income in the current quarter included a one-time acquisition gain of $8.2 million related to the ECB merger, which reflected the amount by which the fair value of acquired net assets exceeded the combined purchase price and fair value of non-controlling interests. Service charges and fees on deposit accounts increased by $1.0 million primarily due to the addition of deposit accounts acquired in the ECB merger. Mortgage banking income increased by $705 thousand with the addition of mortgage lenders in eastern North Carolina and improving residential real estate markets which provided more lending opportunities for home purchases.
Non-interest expense totaled $31.1 million in the second quarter of 2013, which was a significant increase from $12.7 million in the first quarter of 2013. Higher expenses on a linked quarter basis were partially due to a $10.4 million increase in merger and conversion-related costs. Additionally, salaries and employee benefits, occupancy and equipment, data processing, and other non-interest expense categories increased primarily due to the ECB merger which added employees, branch and other facilities, and equipment to the Company's expense base. The Company's operating efficiency ratio, which excludes merger and conversion costs, improved from 82.5 percent in the first quarter of 2013 to 75.9 percent in the second quarter of 2013.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Statements included in this press release include non-GAAP financial measures and should be read along with the accompanying tables which provide a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP financial measures. The Company's management uses these non-GAAP financial measures, including: (i) net operating earnings (loss); (ii) pre-tax, pre-provision operating earnings; (iii) operating non-interest income, (iv) operating efficiency ratio, (v) adjusted allowance for loan losses to loans; and (vi) tangible common equity, in their analysis of the Company's performance. Net operating earnings (loss) excludes the following from net income (loss): securities gains, a one-time acquisition gain, merger and conversion costs, and the income tax effect of adjustments. Pre-tax, pre-provision operating earnings excludes the following from net income (loss): provision for loan losses, income tax expense (benefit), securities gains, a one-time acquisition gain, and merger and conversion costs. The operating efficiency ratio excludes a one-time acquisition gain and merger and conversion costs from the efficiency ratio. Adjusted allowance for loan losses adds net acquisition accounting fair value discounts to the allowance for loan losses. Tangible common equity excludes preferred stock as well as goodwill and other intangible assets, net, from total stockholders' equity.
Management believes that non-GAAP financial measures provide additional useful information that allows readers to evaluate the ongoing performance of the Company. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as an alternative to any measure of performance or financial condition as promulgated under GAAP, and investors should consider the Company's performance and financial condition as reported under GAAP and all other relevant information when assessing the performance or financial condition of the Company. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and investors should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company's results or financial condition as reported under GAAP.
