ZIONS BANCORPORATION REPORTS EARNINGS OF

$1.32 PER DILUTED SHARE FOR FOURTH QUARTER 2005

 

SALT LAKE CITY, January 24, 2006 – Zions Bancorporation (Nasdaq: ZION) (“Zions” or “the Company”) today reported fourth-quarter net income of $128.1 million, or $1.32 per diluted share. Net income and earnings per diluted share increased 22.0% and 14.8% over the $105.0 million, or $1.15 per diluted share reported for the fourth quarter of 2004. The return on average common equity was 14.82% in the fourth quarter of 2005 compared to 15.13% for the same period in 2004. The Company’s acquisition of Amegy Bancorporation, Inc. (“Amegy”) closed on December 3, 2005; results of operations for the fourth quarter and year 2005 include one month of results from Amegy. The fourth quarter of 2005 also includes after-tax merger-related expenses of $1.9 million related to the Amegy purchase, after-tax charges of $1.8 million for a restructuring of the Company’s trading operations and a related goodwill impairment loss, and an after-tax impairment loss of $1.5 million on capitalized management software used at Zions.

 

Net income for 2005 was a record $480.1 million, or $5.16 per diluted share. Net income and earnings per diluted share increased 18.3% and 15.4% over the $406.0 million, or $4.47 per diluted share reported for 2004. The return on average common equity for 2005 was 15.86%, compared to 15.27% for 2004.

 

“We are pleased to report record earnings for the quarter and the year, fueled by continued strong loan and deposit growth,” said Harris Simmons, chairman and chief executive officer.

“We completed the acquisition of Amegy Bancorporation in December and we extend a warm welcome to the outstanding employees and customers of Amegy.”

 

Strong Loan and Deposit Growth

 

On-balance-sheet net loans and leases at December 31, 2005 were $30.1 billion. Excluding $5.4 billion of Amegy loans at December 31, 2005, net loans and leases increased at an annualized rate of 13.5% from $23.9 billion at September 30, 2005. Excluding Amegy loans at December 31, 2005, net loans and leases increased 9.3% from the $22.6 billion outstanding at December 31, 2004. Zions experienced strong loan growth during the fourth quarter in commercial and commercial real estate loan categories; this growth was diversified geographically.

 

Total deposits for the fourth quarter of 2005 increased to $32.6 billion. Excluding $6.9 billion of Amegy deposits at December 31, 2005, total deposits increased at an annualized rate of 5.3% during the fourth quarter and 10.5% from December 31, 2004. Excluding Amegy core deposits at December 31, 2005, core deposits increased 5.0% annualized for the quarter and 8.2% year over year.

 

Amegy continued to experience strong loan and deposit growth during the quarter. (Additional financial information regarding Amegy may be found on page 12.)

 

Net Interest Income

 

Taxable-equivalent net interest income for the fourth quarter of 2005 was $380.3 million, an increase of 20.9% compared to $314.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2004. The increase reflects the previously discussed loan and deposit growth, the acquisition of Amegy and an improved net interest margin. For the fourth quarter of 2005, the net interest margin was 4.62%, compared to 4.59% for the third quarter of 2005 and 4.43% for the fourth quarter of 2004.

Noninterest Income

 

For the fourth quarter of 2005, noninterest income increased 6.1% to $118.0 million compared with $111.2 million for the third quarter of 2005, and 19.3% compared with $98.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2004. The increases in total and individual categories of noninterest income for the fourth quarter of 2005 compared to the third quarter of 2005 were mainly due to the Amegy acquisition.

 

Significant changes in other noninterest income categories for the fourth quarter compared to the third quarter of 2005 not resulting from the Amegy acquisition are as follows. Deposit service charges decreased $1.3 million from the third quarter of 2005, excluding Amegy service charges of $3.4 million. The decrease was primarily a result of higher earnings credit rates on commercial transaction accounts as market interest rates rose. Excluding $0.6 million of trading income at Amegy, market making, trading and nonhedge derivative income declined $3.3 million from the third quarter of 2005. The decrease included a $0.9 million decline in trading income and a $2.4 million decrease in nonhedge derivative income, mainly due to decreases in fair values of the derivatives. During the quarter, Zions closed its London trading office and substantially reduced the size of its trading assets in response to continued narrow margins in its odd-lot electronic bond trading business.

 

Noninterest Expense

 

Noninterest expense for the fourth quarter of 2005 was $284.2 million compared to $248.5 million for the third quarter of 2005, and $238.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2004. The fourth quarter of 2005 includes $21.8 million of Amegy nonmerger expenses, merger related expense of $3.1 million, an impairment loss of $2.5 million on capitalized management software used at Zions, and restructuring charges of $2.4 million related to trading operations. Increases in other individual categories of noninterest expense for the fourth quarter of 2005 compared to the third quarter of 2005 are primarily due to the acquisition of Amegy.

 

The efficiency ratio for the fourth quarter of 2005 was 57.0% compared to 54.4% for the third quarter of 2005 and 57.6% for the fourth quarter of 2004. This deterioration in the efficiency ratio reflects higher

cash noninterest expenses and amortization of intangibles, both related to the acquisition of Amegy. For the year 2005, the efficiency ratio was 55.7%, down significantly from 57.2% for 2004.

 

Asset Quality

 

The ratio of nonperforming assets to net loans and leases and other real estate owned improved to 0.30% at December 31, 2005, compared to 0.35% at September 30, 2005 and 0.37% at December 31, 2004.

 

Net loan and lease charge-offs were $8.2 million or 0.13% of average loans on an annualized basis for the fourth quarter of 2005. This compares with $6.3 million or 0.10%, annualized for the third quarter of 2005 and $11.5 million or 0.21%, annualized for the fourth quarter of 2004. For the year 2005 net loan and lease charge-offs were $25.0 million or 0.10% of average loans compared to $39.4 million or 0.19% for 2004.

 

At December 31, 2005, the allowance for loan losses as a percentage of net loans and leases was 1.12%, a decrease from 1.20% at both September 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004. The decrease was mainly the result of the Amegy acquisition. Amegy’s allowance for loan losses as a percentage of net loans and leases was 0.92% at December 31, 2005. The allowance for loan losses at December 31, 2005 was 489.7% of nonperforming loans. The combined allowances for credit losses (allowance for loan losses plus the allowance for unfunded lending commitments) of $356.5 million were 1.18% of net loans and leases at year-end 2005.

 

The combined provisions for loan losses and unfunded lending commitments for the fourth quarter of 2005 were $10.4 million compared to $12.5 million during the third quarter of 2005 and $13.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2004. The combined provisions for the year 2005 were $46.4 million compared to $44.5 million for 2004.

Capital Management

 

In July 2005 Zions announced that it had suspended the repurchase of shares of its common stock in conjunction with its pending acquisition of Amegy. For the year ended December 31, 2005, the Company repurchased under its approved repurchase program 1,159,522 shares at an average per share price of $69.64 for a total of $80.7 million.

 

The Company’s tangible common equity ratio was 5.29% at December 31, 2005, compared to 7.06% at September 30, 2005 and 6.80% at December 31, 2004. The decrease in this ratio is mainly due to the acquisition of Amegy and the related financing. The Company anticipates that its common stock buyback program will remain suspended until the Company achieves a tangible common equity ratio of at least 6.25%.

 

Weighted average common and common-equivalent shares outstanding for the fourth quarter of 2005 were 96,963,446 compared to 91,605,279 for the third quarter of 2005 and 91,342,328 for the fourth quarter of 2004. Common shares outstanding at December 31, 2005 were 105,147,562 compared to 90,067,016 shares at September 30, 2005 and 89,829,947 shares at December 31, 2004. Common and common-equivalent shares at December 31, 2005 were 107,248,445 shares. The increases in weighted average common and common-equivalent shares and outstanding common shares during the fourth quarter of 2005 resulted mainly from the issuance of 14,351,115 common shares in the Amegy acquisition.

 

Other

 

During the quarter the Company capitalized and opened The Commerce Bank of Oregon in Portland, Oregon, under the leadership of new CEO Michael Paul. The Commerce Bank of Oregon had a de minimus impact on the Company’s balance sheet and income statement for the quarter and year ending December 31, 2005.
