Bank of the Ozarks, Inc. Announces Second Quarter 2014 Earnings

LITTLE ROCK, Ark.--()--Bank of the Ozarks, Inc. (NASDAQ: OZRK) today announced that net income for the second quarter of 2014 was $26.5 million, a 29.9% increase from $20.4 million for the second quarter of 2013. Diluted earnings per common share for the second quarter of 2014 were $0.34, a 17.2% increase from $0.29 for the second quarter of 2013.

During the last four quarters, the Company has completed three acquisitions including its July 2013 acquisition of The First National Bank of Shelby (“FNB Shelby”), its March 2014 acquisition of Bancshares, Inc. (“Bancshares”) and its May 2014 acquisition of Summit Bancorp, Inc. (“Summit”). The Company’s results for the second quarter just ended included acquisition-related expenses, net of applicable taxes, of approximately $0.5 million which reduced second quarter diluted earnings per common share by slightly less than $0.01.

For the six months ended June 30, 2014, net income totaled $51.8 million, a 28.2% increase from net income of $40.4 million for the first six months of 2013. Diluted earnings per common share for the first six months of 2014 were $0.68, a 19.3% increase from $0.57 for the first six months of 2013.

The Company’s results for the first six months of 2014 included three significant unusual items. First, the Company’s acquisition of Bancshares resulted in a tax-exempt bargain purchase gain during the first quarter of $4.7 million. Second, during the first six months of 2014, the Company incurred acquisition-related expenses, net of applicable taxes, of approximately $0.9 million. Third, after entering into an agreement for its newly acquired core banking software, the Company incurred charges in the first quarter, net of applicable taxes, of $3.1 million as a result of providing notices of termination to existing core banking software providers. Collectively, for the first six months of 2014, the net effect of these items added approximately $0.7 million, or approximately $0.01 of diluted earnings per common share.

On June 23, 2014, the Company completed a 2-for-1 stock split, in the form of a stock dividend, effected by issuing one share of common stock for each share of such stock outstanding on June 13, 2014. All share and per share information in this release has been adjusted to give effect to this stock split.

The Company’s annualized returns on average assets, average common stockholders’ equity and average tangible common stockholders’ equity for the second quarter of 2014 decreased to 1.88%, 14.17% and 15.41%, respectively, compared to 2.08%, 15.50% and 15.83%, respectively, for the second quarter of 2013. Annualized returns on average assets, average common stockholders’ equity and average tangible common stockholders’ equity for the first six months of 2014 decreased to 1.99%, 14.90% and 15.90%, respectively, compared to 2.07%, 15.63% and 15.98%, respectively, for the first six months of 2013. The calculation of the Company’s return on average tangible common stockholders’ equity and the reconciliation to generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) is included in the schedules accompanying this release.

Loans and leases, excluding loans covered by Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) loss share agreements (“covered loans”) and purchased loans not covered by loss share (“purchased non-covered loans”), were $3.17 billion at June 30, 2014, a 29.8% increase from $2.44 billion at June 30, 2013. Including covered loans and purchased non-covered loans, total loans and leases were $4.58 billion at June 30, 2014, a 54.8% increase from $2.96 billion at June 30, 2013.

George Gleason, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “We are pleased to report our excellent results for the second quarter and first six months of 2014. While acquisitions have contributed significantly to our growth and profitability in recent years, our ability to organically grow our portfolio of high quality, good yielding loans and leases has been even more important. Our balance of loans and leases outstanding, excluding covered loans and purchased non-covered loans, increased a record $393 million in the quarter just ended and $539 million for the first six months of 2014. Additionally, our unfunded balance of closed loans increased $418 million during the quarter just ended and $624 million for the first six months of 2014, growing to $1.83 billion at June 30, 2014.”

Deposits were $4.98 billion at June 30, 2014, a 67.0% increase compared to $2.98 billion at June 30, 2013.

Total assets were $6.30 billion at June 30, 2014, a 55.8% increase compared to $4.04 billion at June 30, 2013.

Common stockholders’ equity was $850 million at June 30, 2014, a 60.1% increase from $531 million at June 30, 2013. Tangible common stockholders’ equity was $742 million at June 30, 2014, a 42.5% increase from $520 million at June 30, 2013. Book value per common share was $10.67 at June 30, 2014, a 42.5% increase from $7.49 at June 30, 2013. Tangible book value per common share was $9.31 at June 30, 2014, a 26.8% increase from $7.34 at June 30, 2013. The calculations of the company’s tangible common stockholders’ equity and tangible book value per common share and the reconciliations to GAAP are included in the schedules accompanying this release.

Changes in common stockholders’ equity, tangible common stockholders’ equity, book value per common share and tangible book value per common share reflect earnings, dividends paid, stock option and stock grant transactions, stock consideration issued in connection with the Company’s FNB Shelby and Summit acquisitions, changes in the Company’s mark-to-market adjustment for unrealized gains and losses on investment securities available for sale and, for tangible common stockholders’ equity and tangible book value per share, changes in intangible assets. In addition, such changes reflect an increase of $4.1 million, or $0.05 per common share, as a result of the reversal during the second quarter of 2014 of a deferred tax asset valuation allowance established with the FNB Shelby acquisition. The Company has revised its initial estimates regarding the expected recovery of acquired assets with built-in losses, specifically the timing and amount of expected charge-offs of purchased non-covered loans. As a result of such revision, the Company concluded that the deferred tax asset valuation allowance of approximately $4.1 million was not necessary. Because such revision occurred during the first 12 months following the date of acquisition and was not the result of changes in circumstances, the Company has recast its third quarter 2013 financial statements, along with all subsequent financial statements, to increase the bargain purchase gain on the FNB Shelby acquisition by $4.1 million to reflect this change in estimate.

The Company’s ratio of common stockholders’ equity to total assets increased to 13.50% at June 30, 2014, compared to 13.13% at June 30, 2013. Its ratio of tangible common stockholders’ equity to total tangible assets decreased to 11.98% at June 30, 2014, compared to 12.90% at June 30, 2013. The calculation of the Company’s ratio of tangible common stockholders’ equity to total tangible assets and the reconciliation to GAAP is included in the schedules accompanying this release.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

This release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. The Company’s management uses these non-GAAP financial measures, specifically tangible common stockholders’ equity, tangible book value per common share, the ratio of tangible common stockholders’ equity to total tangible assets and return on average tangible common stockholders’ equity, as the principal measures of the strength of its capital and its ability to generate earnings on its tangible capital invested by its shareholders. These measures typically adjust GAAP financial measures to exclude intangible assets. Management believes presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures provides useful supplemental information that contributes to a proper understanding of the financial results and capital levels of the Company. These non-GAAP disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for financial results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies.
