Reddish For Immediate Release EVP & CFO (530) 898-0300 TRICO BANCSHARES ANNOUNCES RECORD QUARTERLY EARNINGS CHICO, Calif. - (October 24, 2006) - TriCo Bancshares (NASDAQ: TCBK), parent company of Tri Counties Bank, today announced record quarterly earnings of $6,820,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2006. This represents a 14.4% increase when compared with earnings of $5,961,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2005. Diluted earnings per share for the quarter ended September 30, 2006 increased 13.5% to $0.42 from $0.37 for the quarter ended September 30, 2005. Total assets of the Company increased $117,148,000 (6.6%) to $1,904,004,000 at September 30, 2006 from $1,786,856,000 at September 30, 2005. Total loans of the Company increased $179,069,000 (13.5%) to $1,507,159,000 at September 30, 2006 from $1,328,090,000 at September 30, 2005. Total deposits of the Company increased $86,875,000 (6.0%) to $1,525,174,000 at September 30, 2006 from $1,438,299,000 at September 30, 2005. Diluted earnings per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 were $1.22 and $1.04, respectively, on earnings of $19,912,000 and $16,937,000, respectively. The improvement in results from the year-ago quarter was due to a $1,991,000 (9.9%) increase in fully tax-equivalent (FTE) net interest income to $22,077,000, and a $712,000 (75.2%) decrease in provision for loan losses. These contributing factors were partially offset by a $1,346,000 (8.6%) increase in noninterest expense to $17,026,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2006. The increase in net interest income (FTE) was due to a $126,774,000 (8.1%) increase in average balances of interest-earning assets to $1,701,166,000 and a 0.09% increase in net interest margin (FTE) to 5.19%. The increase in net interest margin was mainly due to an 0.23% increase in the impact of net noninterest-bearing funds to 0.61% from 0.38% in the quarter ended September 30, 2005 that was partially offset by a 0.14% decrease in net interest spread as the average yield on interest-earning assets increased 0.93% while the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities increased 1.07% from the quarter ended September 30, 2005. The Company provided $235,000 for loan losses in the third quarter of 2006 versus $947,000 in the third quarter of 2005. During the third quarter of 2006, the Company recorded $135,000 of net loan charge offs versus $43,000 of net loan charge-offs in the third quarter of 2005. The net loan charge-offs of $135,000 during the third quarter of 2006 represented 0.04% of average loan balances on an annualized basis. At September 30, 2006, the Company's combined allowance for loan losses ($16,993,000) and reserve for unfunded commitments ($1,849,000) represented 417% of non-performing loans net of government agency guarantees ($4,523,000). Noninterest income for the third quarter of 2006 increased $17,000 (0.3%) from the third quarter of 2005, mainly due to a $50,000 (1.4%) increase in service charges on deposit accounts to $3,703,000, a $105,000 (12.8%) increase in ATM fees and interchange to $927,000, and a $66,000 (35.9%) decrease in amortization (or change in value) of mortgage servicing rights, that were partially offset by a $88,000 (16.4%) decrease in commissions on sale of nondeposit investment products to $447,000, and a $210,000 (44.3%) decrease in gain on sale of loans to $264,000. The increase in service charges on deposit accounts was primarily due to growth in the number of customers. The increase in ATM fees and interchange was due to growth in the number of customers and expansion of ATM network as part of new branch openings. The decrease in amortization (or change in value) of mortgage servicing rights was due primarily to a slowdown in residential mortgage refinance activity which generally increases the value of mortgage servicing rights. The shift from amortization of mortgage servicing rights to change in value of mortgage servicing rights was due to the adoption of market value accounting for mortgage servicing rights effective January 1, 2006 and the related change in market value from July 1, 2006 to September 30, 2006. The decrease in gain on sale of loans was due to a slowdown in residential mortgage refinance activity. Noninterest expense for the third quarter of 2006 increased $1,346,000 (8.6%) compared to the third quarter of 2005. Salaries and benefits expense increased $692,000 (8.1%) to $9,276,000. The increase in salaries and benefits expense was mainly due to annual salary increases, and new employees at the Company's recently opened branches in Roseville-Pleasant Grove (November 2005), Yuba City-Marketplace (January 2006), Folsom-Empire Ranch (March 2006), Natomas-Arena Blvd (April 2006), Antelope (May 2006), Anderson (June 2006), and Elk Grove (August 2006). Other categories of noninterest expense, including occupancy and ATM network charges, also increased, in part, due to these newly-opened branches. Advertising and marketing expense increased $76,000 (13.1%) to $655,000. Professional fees increased $88,000 (30.7%) to $375,000 due to increased audit fees. As of September 30, 2006, the Company had repurchased 374,371 shares of its common stock under its stock repurchase plan announced on July 31, 2003 and amended on April 9, 2004, which left 125,629 shares available for repurchase under the plan. Richard Smith, President and Chief Executive Officer commented, "We are encouraged by the record results our team members were able to generate for our Company during this most recent quarter even as we opened our sixth branch in 2006 to bring our total number of branches to fifty-four. We achieved another quarter of strong loan growth, continued excellent credit quality of our loan portfolio and a steady increase in service charge and fee revenue. We believe these results reflect our ability to deliver, and our market's acceptance of, our values of service and convenience. We believe this strategy will allow us to continue to grow our Company in a profitable manner despite the current environment of a flat yield curve, increased competition for deposits and a slowdown in mortgage refinance activity."
