Reddish Senior Vice President & CFO For Immediate Release (530) 898-0300 TRICO BANCSHARES ANNOUNCES RECORD ANNUAL AND QUARTERLY EARNINGS FOR THE PERIODS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2003 --------------------------------------------------------------- Chico, CA - January 29, 2004. TriCo Bancshares (NASDAQ: TCBK), parent company of Tri Counties Bank, today announced record annual earnings of $16,888,000 for the year ended December 31, 2003. This represents a 20.0% increase when compared with earnings of $14,069,000 for the year ended December 31, 2002. Diluted earnings per share for the year ended December 31, 2003 increased 9.1% to $2.14 from $1.96 for the year ended December 31, 2002. Total assets of the Company increased $324 million (28.3%) to $1.469 billion at December 31, 2003 versus $1.145 billion at December 31, 2002. Total deposits of the Company increased $232 million (23.0%) to $1.237 billion at December 31, 2003 versus $1.005 billion at December 31, 2002. Included in the results for the year ended December 31, 2003 was the effect of the Company's acquisition of North State National Bank on April 4, 2003. On April 4, 2003, North State National Bank had assets of $140 million, loans totaling $77 million, and deposits totaling $126 million. The Company issued $13,090,057 in cash, 723,512 shares of TriCo common stock, and options to purchase 79,587 TriCo common shares at an average exercise price of $6.22 per share in exchange for all of the 1,234,375 common shares and options to purchase 79,937 common shares of North State National Bank outstanding as of April 4, 2003. Net income for the quarter ended December 31, 2003 increased 25.0% to $4,683,000 from $3,748,000 in the quarter ended December 31, 2002. Diluted earnings per share increased 11.5% to $0.58 in the quarter ended December 31, 2003 from $0.52 in the quarter ended December 31, 2002. Richard Smith, President and Chief Executive Officer commented, "We are very pleased with the performance of our company in the quarter and year ended December 31, 2003. We were able to increase quarterly and annual earnings per share by 11.5% and 9.1%, respectively. In addition, we achieved these results while opening branches in the Sacramento suburbs of Roseville and Folsom. These new branches brought the total number of our branches to 45, and along with significant growth at our existing branches, allowed us to internally grow loans by over 31 percent during the year. Not only did we achieve significant growth in earnings, assets and deposits, but we maintained a strong net interest margin and dramatically improved our asset quality." The increase in earnings for the quarter ended December 31, 2003 over the year-ago quarter was due to a $4,147,000 (31.9%) increase in net interest income to $17,130,000, which was partially offset by a $245,000 (4.0%) decrease in noninterest income to $5,753,000, and a $1,986,000 (15.9%) increase in noninterest expense to $14,459,000. The increase in net interest income was due to the loan growth noted above, and an increase in fully tax-equivalent net interest margin to 5.41% during the quarter ended December 31, 2003 versus 5.25% in the year-ago quarter. The $245,000 decrease in noninterest income was mainly due to a $607,000 (44%) decrease in gain on sale of loans to $780,000 that was partially offset by increases in service charge and fee revenue. The decrease in gain on sale of loans was due to the slowdown in the residential mortgage refinance market during the second half of 2003. The increase in noninterest expense was mainly due to the addition of a de-novo branch in Roseville, a de-novo branch in Folsom, and a branch in Chico through the North State acquisition, regular salary increases, and incentive compensation related to the loan and deposit growth noted above. Mr. Smith continued, "We will continue to differentiate ourselves from the competition by offering high levels of service and convenience to our markets with more branch locations, and extended weekday, weekend and holiday hours. We currently anticipate that we will continue to grow within the Central Valley of California as we maximize revenue growth and new customer opportunities within this region. As always, we remain focused on shareholder value which we measure primarily through earnings per share and growth in earnings per share." As previously announced on July 31, 2003, the Company adopted a stock repurchase plan for the repurchase of up to 250,000 shares of the Company's common stock from time to time as market conditions allow. The 250,000 shares authorized for repurchase under this plan represented approximately 3.2% of the Company's approximately 7,852,000 common shares outstanding as of July 31, 2003. This plan has no stated expiration date for the repurchases. As of December 31, 2003, the Company repurchased 27,500 common shares under this plan, of which 19,400 were repurchased during the quarter ended December 31, 2003.
