MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS
Overview and Outlook
Our Business
      Seacoast Banking Corporation of Florida is a multi-bank holding company located on Florida’s southeast coast whose southern market is Palm Beach County and northern market is Brevard County. The Company has 34 full service branches, one of which was opened last year in Palm Beach County, one of which was acquired in Indian River County from another Florida based institution, and three of which were acquired in Orlando (two in Orange County and one in Seminole County), a result of the acquisition of Century National Bank (“Century”) in April 2005. The Company plans to open three to four new branches over the next two years. The markets in which the Company operates have had population growth rates over the past 10 years of over 20 percent and are expected to grow an additional 20 percent or more over the next 10 years.
      The Company signed a definite agreement in November 2005 to acquire Big Lake National Bank with nine offices located in central Florida serving the counties of DeSoto, Glades, Hardee, Hendry, Highlands, Okeechobee, and St. Lucie. This acquisition will increase the Company’s assets by approximately $312 million and deposits by $298 million. Prospectively, the Company will consider other strategic acquisitions as part of the Company’s overall future growth plans provided they are in complementary and attractive growth markets within the state of Florida.
      For purposes of the following discussion, the words the “Company,” “we,” “us” and “our” refer to the combined entities of Seacoast Banking Corporation of Florida and its direct and indirect wholly owned subsidiaries, First National Bank and Trust Company of the Treasure Coast, FNB Brokerage Services, Inc., FNB Insurance Services, Inc., South Branch Building, Inc., Big O RV Resort, Inc., FNB Property Holdings, Inc., Century National Bank and FNB RE Services, Inc.
Strategic Overview
      A few years ago the Company began several initiatives to improve its net interest margin and the percent of revenues from fees over the long term.
      The Company’s residential mortgage portfolio production was converted from a portfolio funded process to primarily a fee based business with the objective of reducing the residential portfolio from 50 percent of total loans to approximately 30 percent over time while still portfolioing select loans such as adjustable rate and fixed to adjustable loans. Commercial/ commercial real estate and consumer lending capabilities were improved, including market expansion into Palm Beach and Brevard Counties, and more recently, Orange and Seminole Counties, to replace the reduced residential portfolio outstandings.
      The Company refers to its brand of banking as the third alternative to banking: all of the sophisticated products and services of its largest competitors delivered with the high touch quality customer service and convenience of a small community bank. While this strategy is more costly from an overhead perspective, it provides high value customer relationships and a much lower overall cost of funds when compared to peers. The Company’s cost of interest bearing deposits has historically ranked in the lowest quartile compared to its peers.
Loan Originations and Lending Policies
      The Company’s lending policies, credit monitoring and underwriting have historically produced, over the long term, low net charge offs and nonperforming loans and minimal past dues. Our Company’s credit culture emphasizes discipline to the fundamentals of quality lending regardless of the economic cycle or competitive pressures to do otherwise. Nearly all of the Company’s commercial and commercial real estate loans are originated in its markets by experienced professional loan officers who retain credit monitoring and collection responsibilities until the loan is repaid.

      The historic low interest rate environment during 2002 and 2003 resulted in much of the Company’s residential loan portfolio being refinanced. This produced negative loan growth until the third quarter of 2003 as a result of high loan refinance activity and the Company’s strategy to convert its residential loan production to a fee-based business. Beginning in the third quarter 2003, the Company began selectively adding residential loans, primarily with adjustable rates, to its loan portfolio. This, coupled with higher consumer, commercial and commercial real estate production during 2004 and 2005, resulted in loan portfolio growth improving from 3.0 percent in 2003 to 26.9 percent in 2004 and 43.4 percent in 2005. The Company’s expansion into Palm Beach County with a total of five offices, the loan production office in Brevard County, and the acquisition of Century in Orlando has contributed to overall loan growth, as well as an improved loan mix and lending capacity over the past twelve months. Total loans outstanding in these new markets grew to $396 million at December 31, 2005. This market expansion has provided the Company with greater opportunities to profitably grow the loan portfolio, which has in turn contributed to gains in net interest income and the margin.
      In 2005 the Company received applications for $216 million in residential loans, lower than the $224 million in 2004 and the $261 million in 2003 when refinance activity was peaking. Due to better market penetration, expanded coverage and the demand for housing in the markets served, the Company expects to be able to originate over $200 million a year in residential loans prospectively. The added lending capabilities resulted in the largest commercial and commercial real estate production in the Company’s history in 2005. A total of $465 million was originated compared to $372 million in 2004 and $179 million in 2003.
Deposit Mix and Costs
      The Company benefited in 2005 and 2004 from an increase in low cost and no cost deposits in proportion to other higher cost products. This outcome results from the Company’s continued emphasis on its SuperCommunity brand of banking with high quality customer service and convenient branch locations and from the acquired deposits of Century National Bank in April 2005. The Company believes it is the most convenient bank in its Treasure Coast markets with more locations than any competitor in the counties of Martin, St. Lucie and Indian River, which are located on Florida’s southeast coast.
      Over the past year, noninterest bearing demand deposits increased 37.1 percent and low cost NOW, money market and savings deposits increased 31.8 percent. Positively impacting the full year’s results was the Company’s acquisition of Century which added $304 million in deposits. Century’s deposit mix is favorable with 35.8 percent of Century’s deposits comprised of noninterest bearing demand deposits at December 31, 2005 and the remainder, lower cost interest bearing core deposits. While interest rates increased 200 basis points during 2005, the Company’s overall deposit mix has allowed its average cost of deposits to remain low. The average cost of deposits including noninterest bearing demand deposits for the fourth quarter of 2005 increased only 51 basis points over the prior year to 1.54 percent. The Company is executing the same value building customer relationship strategy for retail deposits in all of its markets. At December 31, 2005, a total of $89 million in deposits were in Palm Beach County with an average cost of 1.64 percent for deposits during the fourth quarter 2005.
Noninterest Income Sources
      In addition to fee income from mortgage banking activities, the Company derives fees from service charges on deposit accounts, investment management, trust and brokerage services, as well as from originating and selling large yacht loans. The Company believes that it could generate approximately 30 percent of total revenues from all fee businesses in the coming years. In 2005, the Company collected approximately 22 percent of total revenues (net interest income and noninterest income) from its fee-based business activities.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
      The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or “GAAP,” including prevailing practices within the financial services industry. The preparation of consolidated financial statements requires management to make judgments in the application of certain of its accounting policies that involve significant estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions, which may materially affect the reported amounts of certain assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, are based on information available as of the date of the financial statements, and changes in this information over time and the use of revised estimates and assumptions could materially affect amounts reported in subsequent financial statements. After consultation with the Company’s Audit Committee, we believe the most critical accounting estimates and assumptions that may affect the Company’s financial status and that involve the most difficult, subjective and complex assessments are:
  •  the allowance and the provision for loan losses;
 
  •  the fair value of securities available for sale;
 
  •  goodwill impairment; and
 
  •  contingent liabilities.
      The following is a brief discussion of the critical accounting policies intended to facilitate a reader’s understanding of the judgments, estimates and assumptions underlying these accounting policies and the possible or likely events or uncertainties known to us that could have a material effect on our reported financial information. For more information regarding management’s judgments relating to significant accounting policies and recent accounting pronouncements, see “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, Note A — Significant Accounting Policies.”
Allowance and Provision for Loan Losses
      Management determines the provision for loan losses charged to operations by constantly analyzing and monitoring delinquencies, nonperforming loans and the level of outstanding balances for each loan category, as well as the amount of net charge-offs, and by estimating losses inherent in its portfolio. While the Company’s policies and procedures used to estimate the provision for loan losses charged to operations are considered adequate by management and are reviewed from time to time by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), there exist factors beyond the control of the Company, such as general economic conditions both locally and nationally, which make management’s judgment as to the adequacy of the provision and allowance for loan losses necessarily approximate and imprecise (see “Nonperforming Assets”).
      A provision of $1,317,000 was recorded during 2005, partially as a result of loan growth of $390 million or 43 percent in 2005, including $107 million from the acquisition of Century. A $1,000,000 provision was recorded during 2004, when loans increased $191 million or 27 percent, and no provisioning occurred in 2003. The increased loss exposure as a result of the loan growth in 2005 and 2004 was partially offset by the Company’s continued stable credit quality, and low nonperforming assets. Net charge-offs totaled $135,000 or 0.01 percent of average loans in 2005 compared to $562,000 or 0.07 percent of average loans for 2004 and $666,000 or 0.10 percent of average loans for 2003. Nearly all of the net charge-offs in 2004 and 2003 were attributable to the Company’s commercial and financial loan portfolio that represents less than 10 percent of the total loan portfolio. Net charge-offs were nominal in prior years as well with $208,000 or 0.03 percent of average loans for 2002 and $184,000 or 0.02 percent of average loans for 2001. The Company’s net charge-off ratios have been much better than the banking industry as a whole and this year’s results are consistent with the Company’s historical trends.
      The Company’s expansion into Palm Beach and Brevard counties, the addition of Century, as well as growth in the Company’s other markets over the last two years has resulted in double-digit commercial and residential real estate loan growth. A historically favorable credit loss experience in these portfolios has made it unnecessary to provide large additions to the allowance for loan losses. Also, although Century’s

16


Table of Contents

portfolio is only five years old, no credit losses have ever been recorded for Century. However, a decline in economic activity could impact the demand for real estate and the Company’s loss experience resulting in larger additions to the allowance for loan losses. The last time the Company experienced significant net charge-offs and nonperforming loans was during the period 1988-1993 when the real estate markets in Florida experienced deflation and the national economy was in recession. Management believes that its current credit granting processes follows a comprehensive and disciplined approach that mitigates risk and lowers the likelihood of significant increases in charge-offs and nonperforming loans during all economic cycles.
      Table 12 provides certain information concerning the Company’s allowance for loan losses for the years indicated.
      The allowance for loan losses totaled $9,006,000 at December 31, 2005, $2,408,000 greater than one year earlier. The increase in the allowance included the carryover of $1,225,000 from the acquisition of Century. None of the allowance added for Century resulted from any impaired loans.
      A model utilized to analyze the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses takes into account such factors as credit quality, loan concentrations, internal controls, audit results, staff turnover, local market economics and loan growth. In its continuing evaluation of the allowance and its adequacy, management also considers, among other factors, the Company’s loan loss experience, loss experience of peer banks, the amount of past due and nonperforming loans, current and anticipated economic conditions, and the values of loan collateral. Commercial and commercial real estate loans are assigned internal risk ratings reflecting the probability of the borrower defaulting on any obligation and the probable loss in the event of default. Retail credit risk is managed from a portfolio view rather than by specific borrower and are assigned internal risk rankings reflecting the combined probability of default and loss. The independent Credit Administration department assigns risk factors to the individual internal risk ratings based on a determination of the risk using a variety of tools and information. Loan Review is an independent unit that performs risk reviews and evaluates a representative sample of credit extensions after the fact. Loan Review has the authority to change internal risk ratings and is responsible for assessing the adequacy of credit underwriting. This unit reports directly to the Directors Loan Committee of the Board of Directors.
      The allowance as a percentage of loans outstanding decreased from 0.87 percent to 0.73 percent during 2004 and to 0.70 percent during 2005. The overall amount of the allowance for loan losses reflects the allocation to residential and commercial real estate secured loan portfolios held by the Company, ranging from a high of 84.6 percent of total loans in 2000 to a low of 80.8 percent in 2002 and at year-end 2005 totaling 85.9 percent of total loans, whose historical charge-offs and delinquencies have been favorable. The better than peer performance credit quality results are attributed to conservative, long-standing and consistently applied loan credit policies and to a knowledgeable, experienced and stable staff. The allowance for loan losses represents management’s estimate of an amount adequate in relation to the risk of losses inherent in the loan portfolio.
      Table 13 summarizes the Company’s allocation of the allowance for loan losses to each type of loan and information regarding the composition of the loan portfolio at the dates indicated.
      Concentration of credit risk, discussed under “Loan Portfolio” of this discussion and analysis, may affect the level of the allowance. Concentrations typically involve loans to one borrower, an affiliated group of borrowers, borrowers engaged in or dependent upon the same industry, or a group of borrowers whose loans are predicated on the same type of collateral. The Company’s significant concentration of credit is a collateral concentration of loans secured by real estate. At December 31, 2005, the Company had $1,108 million in loans secured by real estate, representing 85.9 percent of total loans, up slightly from 83.5 percent at December 31, 2004. In addition, the Company is subject to a geographic concentration of credit because it only operates in southern Florida. The Company has a meaningful credit exposure to commercial real estate developers and investors with total commercial real estate construction and land development loans of 26.7 percent of total loans at year-end 2005. All of the Company’s exposure to these credits are not only secured by project assets with fifty percent or more pre sales or leases, but are guaranteed by the personal assets of all of the participants. Levels of exposure to this industry group,

17


Table of Contents

together with an assessment of current trends and expected future financial performance, are carefully analyzed and monitored in order to determine an adequate allowance level. Problem loan activity for this exposure needs to be evaluated over the long term to include all economic cycles when determining an adequate allowance level.
      While it is the Company’s policy to charge off in the current period loans in which a loss is considered probable, there are additional risks of future losses that cannot be quantified precisely or attributed to particular loans or classes of loans. Because these risks include the state of the economy as well as conditions affecting individual borrowers, management’s judgment of the allowance is necessarily approximate and imprecise. It is also subject to regulatory examinations and determinations as to adequacy, which may take into account such factors as the methodology used to calculate the allowance for loan losses and the size of the allowance for loan losses in comparison to a group of peer companies identified by the regulatory agencies.
      In assessing the adequacy of the allowance, management relies predominantly on its ongoing review of the loan portfolio, which is undertaken both to ascertain whether there are probable losses that must be charged off and to assess the risk characteristics of the portfolio in aggregate. This review considers the judgments of management, and also those of bank regulatory agencies that review the loan portfolio as part of their regular examination process.
      Table 14 provides certain information concerning nonperforming assets for the years indicated.
      At December 31, 2005, there was $372,000 in nonperforming assets compared to $1,447,000 at December 31, 2004. At December 31, 2005, 100 percent of the nonaccrual loans were secured with real estate. In addition, nonaccrual loans totaling $204,000 at December 31, 2005 were performing with respect to payments; however, the loans were placed on nonaccrual status because the Company has determined that the collection of principal or interest in accordance with the terms of such loans is uncertain. Management does not expect significant losses for which an allowance for loan losses has not been provided associated with the ultimate realization of these assets. The Company had no restructed or potential problem loans at December 31, 2005.
      Nonperforming assets are subject to changes in the economy, both nationally and locally, changes in monetary and fiscal policies, and changes in conditions affecting various borrowers from the Company’s subsidiary bank. No assurance can be given that nonperforming assets will not in fact increase or otherwise change. A similar judgmental process is involved in the methodology used to estimate and establish the Company’s allowance for loan losses.
      Fair Value of Securities Held for Sale The fair value of the held for sale portfolio at December 31, 2005 was less than historical amortized cost, producing net unrealized losses of $5,721,000 that have been included in other comprehensive income as a component of shareholders’ equity. The fair value of each security was obtained from independent pricing sources utilized by many financial institutions. However, actual values can only be determined in an arms-length transaction between a willing buyer and seller; and can, and often do, vary from these reported values. Furthermore, significant changes in recorded values due to changes in actual and perceived economic conditions can occur rapidly, producing greater unrealized losses in the held for sale portfolio. On November 1, 2004, in anticipation of a predicted rising interest rate environment and a potential decline in fair value of securities, the Company transferred $110.5 million in securities with net unrealized losses of $802,000 to its held to maturity portfolio from the held for sale portfolio. No transfers were recorded during 2005.
      The credit quality of the Company’s security holdings is investment grade and higher and are traded in highly liquid markets. Therefore, negative changes in the fair values as a result of unforeseen deteriorating economic conditions should only be temporary. Further, management believes that the Company’s other sources of liquidity, as well as, the cash flow from principal and interest payments from the securities portfolios, reduces the risk that losses would be realized as a result of needed liquidity from the securities portfolio.

      Goodwill Impairment Beginning January 1, 2002, the Company’s goodwill was no longer amortized, but tested annually for impairment. The amount of goodwill at December 31, 2005 totaled $31.7 million, including approximately $2.6 million that was acquired in 1995 as a result of the purchase of a community bank in the Company’s Treasure Coast market and $29.0 million from the acquisition of Century in 2005. Management does not expect any material change in the amount of goodwill associated with the acquisition of Century, however, estimated fair values of acquired assets and liabilities, including identifiable intangible assets, are subject to refinement as plans are finalized and additional information becomes available. Refinements need to be identified and recorded within twelve months subsequent to the purchase’s settlement date of April 30, 2005.
      The assessment as to the continued value for goodwill involves judgments, assumptions and estimates regarding the future.
      The Company has a bank deposit market share of approximately 12 percent in the Treasure Coast market, which had a population increase of over 20 percent during the past ten years. The population growth and other demographics of the counties Century operates in are similar to those of the Company’s other markets. The population in these markets is forecast by the Bureau of Economic and Business Research at the University of Florida to continue to grow at a 20 percent plus rate over the next ten years. Our highly visible local market orientation, combined with a wide range of products and services and favorable demographics, has resulted in increasing profitability in these markets. There is data available indicating that both the products and customers serviced have grown since these acquisitions, which is attributable to the increased profitability and supports the goodwill value at December 31, 2005.
      Contingent Liabilities We are subject to contingent liabilities, including judicial, regulatory and arbitration proceedings, tax and other claims arising from the conduct of our business activities. These proceedings include actions brought against us and/or our subsidiaries with respect to transactions in which we and/or our subsidiaries acted as a lender, a financial advisor, a broker or acted in a related activity. Accruals are established for legal and other claims when it becomes probable we will incur an expense and the amount can be reasonably estimated. We involve internal and external experts, such as attorneys, consultants and other professionals, in assessing probability and in estimating any amounts involved. Throughout the life of a contingency, we or our experts may learn of additional information that can affect our assessments about probability or about the estimates of amounts involved. Changes in these assessments can lead to changes in recorded reserves. In addition, the actual costs of resolving these claims may be substantially higher or lower than the amounts reserved for those claims. No amounts have been accrued as of December 31, 2005 as management is not aware of any probable losses.
Results of Operations
      Net Interest Income Net interest income (on a fully taxable equivalent basis) for 2005 totaled $72,297,000, $19,390,000 or 36.6 percent higher than for 2004. Net interest income for 2005 included $7.9 million from the addition of Century, with $1.7 million added in the second quarter, $2.9 million in the third quarter, and $3.3 million in the fourth quarter. Net interest margin on a tax equivalent basis increased 8 basis points to 3.97 percent from 3.89 percent for 2004.

Interest rates have increased 325 basis points since the Federal Reserve began increasing rates, with 200 basis points occurring during the last twelve months. The following details the yield on earning assets (on a tax equivalent basis) for the past five quarters:
                                         
    4th Quarter   3rd Quarter   2nd Quarter   1st Quarter   4th Quarter
    2005   2005   2005   2005   2004
                     
Yield
    5.76 %     5.48 %     5.22 %     5.08 %     4.97 %
      The yield on loans improved 48 basis points to 6.54 percent over the last twelve months as a result of a change in mix due to loan growth and a greater percent of the portfolio in floating rate loans. In addition, an increase in the yield on investment securities of 25 basis points year over year to 3.66 percent was recorded and the yield on federal funds sold and interest bearing deposits grew 175 basis points to 3.31 percent. Average earning assets for 2005 increased $463.2 million or 34.1 percent compared to 2004. Average loan balances grew $316.5 million or 39.6 percent to $1,116.1 million, average federal funds sold and interest bearing deposits increased $90.8 million to $109.6 million, and average investment securities were $55.9 million or 10.3 percent higher, totaling $596.2 million. The increase in loans was principally in commercial real estate loans, in part reflecting the Company’s successful de novo expansion into northern Palm Beach County and the opening of a loan production office in Brevard County (in August 2004). The acquisition of Century in Orange and Seminole County (principally Orlando, Florida) increased average loan balances by $75 million during 2005. Total loans in these new markets totaled $396 million at December 31, 2005. The addition of another full service branch in Palm Beach County in April 2006 and one in Brevard County in mid- to late-2006, as well as Century’s three full service locations added in April 2005, will further assist in expanding the Company’s loan origination capabilities. At December 31, 2005, commercial lenders in these markets (Palm Beach County, Brevard County and the Orlando area) have pipelines of $78 million, $29 million and $14 million, respectively.
      Total commercial loan production for 2005 was $465 million compared to $372 million in 2004. The company expects economic conditions in the markets it serves to remain favorable over the next 12 months but other factors such as supply and labor shortages could have negative impacts on loan production.
      Closed residential loan production during 2005 totaled $195 million, of which $80 million was sold servicing released to manage interest rate risk and to generate fee income. A total of $216 million in residential mortgages were originated during the twelve months ended December 31, 2005, compared to $224 million during the same period in 2004. Residential production was lower during the second half of the year for 2005, with $60.1 million and $59.9 million produced in the second and first quarter, versus $47.9 million and $48.3 million in the third and fourth quarter. In part, fewer residential loan originators (due to vacant positions) contributed to the decline. The Company’s residential loan production volumes face increased competition in its markets which is expected to be offset by the expansion into new markets.
      Activity in the Company’s securities portfolio was limited in 2005, with maturities of securities of $214.9 million and purchases totaling $145.3 million. Sales proceeds totaling $51.0 million were primarily comprised of securities from Century’s portfolio, which under purchase accounting were adjusted to fair market value at April 30, 2005, thereby providing the Company the opportunity to reposition these securities. In comparison, for 2004 maturities and purchases of securities totaled $132.3 million and $308.2 million, respectively, and sales proceeds totaled $136.7 million. The investment portfolio is expected to continue to provide needed liquidity to fund the expected growth in the loan portfolio.
      Year over year the mix of earning assets has improved. Loans (the highest yielding component of earning assets) as a percentage of average earning assets totaled 61.3 percent for 2005 compared to 58.9 percent a year ago, while securities decreased from 39.8 percent to 32.7 percent and federal funds sold and interest bearing deposits increased from 1.4 percent to 6.0 percent. In addition to increasing total loans as a percentage of earning assets, the Company successfully changed the mix of loans, with commercial volumes increasing as a percentage of total loans (see “Loan Portfolio” and Table 9 — Loans Outstanding).

      Lower cost interest bearing deposits (NOW, savings and money market balances) increased to 60.0 percent of interest bearing liabilities, versus 55.3 percent a year ago, favorably affecting deposit mix. Average certificates of deposit (CDs) (a higher cost component of interest-bearing liabilities) as a percentage of interest-bearing liabilities decreased to 29.5 percent in 2005, compared to 34.0 percent in 2004, reflecting diminished funding requirements. Approximately $218 million in CDs matured during 2005 and $309 million are expected to mature in 2006. Borrowings (including federal funds purchased, sweep repurchase agreements with customers of the Company’s subsidiary, subordinated debt and other borrowings) remained relatively level at 10.5 percent of interest bearing liabilities for 2005, versus 10.7 percent in 2004.
      The cost of interest-bearing liabilities in 2005 increased 55 basis points to 1.91 percent from 1.36 percent, principally due to the Federal Reserve increasing short-term interest rates at a “measured pace” during the year, by 50 basis points in the fourth quarter, 75 basis points in the third quarter, 25 basis points in the second quarter and 50 basis points in the first quarter. Based on recent Federal Reserve commentary, it is likely short-term interest rates will be raised further in 2006. The following table details the cost of interest-bearing liabilities for the past five quarters:
                                         
    4th Quarter   3rd Quarter   2nd Quarter   1st Quarter   4th Quarter
    2005   2005   2005   2005   2004
                     
Rate
    2.27 %     1.95 %     1.76 %     1.56 %     1.44 %
      The average aggregated balance for NOW, savings and money market balances increased $245.7 million or 42.4 percent to $825.0 million from 2004 and average noninterest bearing deposits increased $155.2 million or 59.6 percent to $415.4 million, while average CDs increased $48.8 million or 13.7 percent to $405.0 million. Of the growth indicated for aggregated NOW, savings and money market balances, noninterest bearing deposits and CDs, the Century acquisition accounted for $128.8 million, $70.7 million and $13.2 million of the increases indicated, respectively. Growth in deposits in the fourth quarter of 2004 and first quarter of 2005 was favorably impacted by insurance proceeds received by customers as a result of damage from two hurricanes that impacted the Company’s market area in September 2004. The Company’s market expansion and commercial lending growth has favorably impacted deposit growth as well. Most new commercial loan relationships result in a new noninterest bearing deposit relationship. In addition, growth in low-cost/no cost funding sources reflects the Company’s longstanding strategy of building core customer relationships and tailoring its products and services to satisfy customer needs.
      Average short-term borrowings (principally sweep repurchase agreements with customers of the Company’s subsidiary banks) also increased, by $12.7 million or 17.6 percent to $85.0 million for 2005, versus a year ago. Average other borrowings including subordinated debt increased by $19.6 million or 49.0 percent to $59.5 million, reflecting the issuance of $20.6 million in subordinated debentures on the last day of the first quarter (March 31, 2005), an additional issuance of $20.6 million in subordinated debentures on December 16, 2005, and $6.0 million in advances on a $15.0 million unsecured revolving line of credit (initially drawn upon in June 2005). The debentures were issued in conjunction with the formation of a Delaware trust subsidiary, SBCF Capital Trust I, and a Connecticut trust subsidiary, SBCF Statutory Trust II, each completing a private placement of $20.0 million of Floating Rate Preferred Securities on their formation dates. The proceeds from the sale of the trust preferred securities and advances on the line of credit were used to support the purchase of Century, to maintain capital, and for general corporate purposes. (See Note I Borrowings)
      Net interest income (on a fully taxable equivalent basis) for 2004 totaled $52,907,000, $8,597,000 or 19.4 percent higher than for 2003. Net interest margin on a tax equivalent basis increased 32 basis points to 3.89 percent for 2004 from 2003’s result. The net interest margin steadily improved quarter to quarter during 2004, with the exception of the fourth quarter of 2004. Fourth quarter 2004’s net interest margin was 4.97 percent, compared to 5.02 percent for the third quarter of 2004, 4.85 percent for the second quarter of 2004, 4.89 percent for the first quarter of 2004 and 4.85 percent for the fourth quarter of 2003. The Company experienced substantial deposit growth in the fourth quarter as a result of insurance

proceeds and increased business activity resulting from the hurricane damage that occurred in September 2004. These funds were invested in short term assets with lower yields which compressed the net interest margin in the fourth quarter of 2004.
      The yield on earning assets for 2004 was 4.94 percent, 5 basis points higher than 2003’s result, reflecting an improving earning assets mix in 2004.
      The yield on loans declined 49 basis points to 6.06 percent over the twelve month period ended December 31, 2004. Partially offsetting this decline was an increase in the yield on investment securities of 59 basis points during 2004 to 3.41 percent. In addition, average earning assets for 2004 increased $115.9 million or 9.3 percent compared to 2003. Average loan balances grew $121.3 million or 17.9 percent to $799.6 million and average federal funds sold increased $12.4 million to $18.8 million, while average investment securities declined $17.8 million or 3.2 percent to $540.4 million. The increase in loans was principally in commercial real estate loans. Total loans in Palm Beach County grew to $134.7 million with a total of $79.4 million funded during 2004. For the year 2004, loan officers in the Palm Beach County market originated a total of $126.5 million in loans (including unfunded commitments) and ended the year with a pipeline of approximately $125.0 million in additional loans, an exceptional performance in this new market just entered into in 2003. Closed residential loan production during 2004 totaled $205 million, of which $78 million was sold servicing released to manage interest rate risk and to generate fee income. A total of $224 million in residential mortgages were originated during the twelve months ended December 31, 2004, compared to $261 million during the same period in 2003. Residential production was disrupted in September 2004 by two hurricanes that directly hit the Company’s markets and resulted in fewer applications processed. Lower production ($42.1 million) and fee income ($347,000) was recorded in the fourth quarter 2004.
      Activity in the Company’s securities portfolio included maturities of securities of $132.3 million and purchases totaling $308.2 million. Sales proceeds totaled $136.7 million and were transacted primarily to provide liquidity for funding of lending activities.
      The cost of interest-bearing liabilities in 2004 decreased 29 basis points to 1.36 percent from 1.65 percent for 2003. Declines in rates paid by the Company occurred in the first and second quarter of 2004, with the trend reversing in the third quarter of 2004, a result of the impact of the Federal Reserve increasing short term interest rates by 125 basis points, including increases of 50 basis points in the third and fourth quarters of 2004 (a total of 100 basis points).
      The average aggregated balance for NOW, savings and money market balances increased $76.6 million or 15.2 percent to $579.3 million from 2003 and average noninterest bearing deposits increased $58.3 million or 28.9 percent to $260.2 million, while average CDs declined $11.8 million or 3.2 percent to $356.2 million. Average short-term borrowings (principally sweep repurchase agreements with customers of the Company’s subsidiary bank) also increased, by $7.3 million or 11.2 percent to $72.3 million for 2004, versus 2003. Maturing debt from the FHLB on December 1, 2003 totaling $25.0 million was the primary cause for a decline during 2004 in the average balance for other borrowings of $21.0 million or 34.4 percent. As a result of the maturity, the rate paid on other borrowings decreased 114 basis points year over year to 3.34 percent.
      During 2004, the mix of earning assets and funding sources improved slightly. Loans as a percentage of average earning assets totaled 58.9 percent for 2004 compared to 54.6 percent for 2003, while securities decreased from 44.9 percent to 39.8 percent. In addition, the mix of loans changed with commercial volumes increasing as a percentage of total loans and lower yielding long term residential loan balances declining. Average CDs as a percentage of interest-bearing liabilities decreased to 34.0 percent in 2004, compared to 36.9 percent in 2003, with approximately $238 million in CDs maturing during 2004. Average balances for lower cost interest bearing deposits (NOW, savings and money market balances) increased to 55.3 percent of interest bearing liabilities, versus 50.4 percent for 2003, favorably affecting deposit mix. Borrowings (including federal funds purchased, sweep repurchase agreements with customers of the Company’s subsidiary, and other borrowings) decreased to 10.7 percent of interest bearing liabilities for 2004 from 12.6 percent for 2003, reflecting the decline in FHLB borrowings.

Noninterest Income
      Noninterest income, excluding gains and losses from securities sales, totaled $20,517,000 for 2005, $2,055,000 or 11.1 percent higher than 2004 and compared to a decrease of $2,435,000 or 11.7 percent in 2004 over 2003. Noninterest income accounted for 22.1 percent of net revenue in 2005, compared to 25.9 percent in 2004 and 32.1 percent in 2003.
      Revenues from the Company’s financial services businesses rebounded during 2004 and 2005. Brokerage commissions and fees increased $120,000 or 4.9 percent and trust income rose $323,000 or 14.4 percent during 2005, versus a year ago. This compares with increases of $579,000 or 31.1 percent and $207,000 or 10.1 percent, respectively, in brokerage commissions and fees and trust income during 2004 versus 2003. Financial market turmoil in 2002 and 2003 affected investment management revenues with consumers avoiding the riskier equities markets for more conservative deposit products. While revenues from wealth management services have generally improved as customers have returned to the equity markets, it remains challenging due to the uncertain economic environment. The Company believes it can be successful and expand its customer relationships through sales of investment management and brokerage products, including insurance.
      The Company is among the leaders in the production of residential mortgage loans in its market. In 2005, residential loan production totaled $216 million (compared to $224 million in 2004 and $261 million in 2003). Beginning in the third quarter 2003, the Company began selectively adding residential loans, primarily with adjustable rates, to its loan portfolio. As a result sales of residential mortgage loans in 2005 and 2004 were lower, totaling $80 million in 2005 and $78 million in 2004 compared to $188 million in 2003. Mortgage banking revenues are partially dependent upon favorable interest rates, as well as, good overall economic conditions. Increases in rates have caused a decline in overall mortgage activity in the Company’s markets and, in general, fewer loans have been sold in 2004 and 2005 as the production of adjustable rate mortgages has increased and been retained in the Company’s loan portfolio. Residential loans are processed by commissioned originators, as well as the Company’s branch personnel.
      Service charges on deposits totaling $5,022,000 were $543,000 or 12.1 percent higher year over year versus 2004. In comparison, 2004’s service charges on deposits were $428,000 or 8.7 percent lower year over year versus 2003. Overdraft fees were higher during 2005, increasing $694,000 or 23.4 percent year over year. Of the $694,000 increase in overdraft fees, $58,000 was from the addition of Century. In the first quarter of 2005, the Company instituted new policies and procedures which added additional customer flexibility in managing their deposit account balance which resulted in higher overdraft fees being collected. In contrast, during 2004 higher balances maintained by customers in core deposit accounts reduced service charge and overdraft fees collected, versus 2003.
      Greater usage of check cards over the past three years by core deposit customers and an increased cardholder base has increased interchange income. Debit card income increased $370,000 or 27.5 percent in 2005 year over year, and was $175,000 or 15.0 percent greater in 2004 than 2003. VISA and MasterCard agreed in principle to a reduction in check card interchange rates effective August 1, 2003, which did result in lower fees and income of $20,000 per month over the remainder of 2003. However, both VISA and MasterCard increased check card fees during 2004, contributing to the increase in revenue year over year for both 2005 and 2004. Other deposit based electronic funds transfer income, which decreased $59,000 or 12.4 percent in 2005 after increasing $35,000 or 7.9 percent in 2004, was not impacted.
      Marine finance fees from the origination and nonrecourse sale of marine loans increased $71,000 or 2.4 percent to $3,068,000 for 2005, after decreasing $164,000 or 5.2 percent to $2,997,000 in 2004 versus 2003. The Company’s marine finance division (Seacoast Marine Finance) produced $189 million in marine loans during 2005, compared to $171 million in 2004 and $184 million in 2003. Of the $189 million produced in 2005, a total of $177 million was sold. In comparison, for 2004 marine loans totaling $155 million were sold. Seacoast Marine Finance is headquartered in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida with lending professionals in Florida, California and, more recently, New England. The production team in

California is capable of serving not only California, but Washington and Oregon as well. The Company will continue to look for opportunities to expand its market penetration of its marine finance business.
      Merchant income for 2005 was $268,000 or 13.7 percent higher than in 2004, and was $352,000 or 21.9 percent higher in 2004 compared to 2003. Merchant income as a source of revenue is dependent upon the volume of credit card transactions that occur with merchants who have business demand deposits with the Company’s banking subsidiaries. The Company’s expansion into new markets has positively impacted the growth of business demand deposits and aided the increase in merchant income. Business demand deposits at December 31, 2005 were higher by $127.5 million or 68.5 percent year over year.
Noninterest Expenses
      The Company’s overhead ratio has ranged in the mid to low 60s over the past few years. The efficiency ratio of 63.7 percent for 2005 compares favorably to last year when the ratio was 66.2 percent, in part reflecting an improved margin (and net interest income) during 2005.
      When compared to 2004, noninterest expenses for 2005 increased by $11,819,000 or 25.0 percent to $59,100,000, compared to an increase of $4,818,000 or 11.3 percent in 2004. Of the $11,819,000 increase, $3,738,000 was due to the addition of Century; only eight months of overhead for Century was included in 2005’s results. Remaining growth in 2005 is attributable to increased wages, benefits, occupancy, marketing and other overhead due to the addition of branches and personnel in the Palm Beach and Brevard County markets, and from higher commissions, stock awards and other incentive compensation related to the Company’s improved performance. Also impacting overhead in 2005 are marketing expenses associated with the Company’s new markets.
      Base salaries increased $2,798,000 or 16.8 percent. A portion of the increase in base salaries was directly attributable to lending and branch personnel in the new Palm Beach County market ($337,000) and to the addition of Century ($1,005,000). Key manager incentives and stock award compensation (tied to specific Company performance measurements) were higher in 2005, representing $1,560,000 of the overall increase of $1,691,000 in incentives for 2005. For 2004, salaries and wages increased $2,478,000 or 14.9 percent to $19,119,000 compared to 2003. Included were increases in base salaries of $1,604,000 or 10.7 percent, additional incentives of $937,000, and higher commissions on revenue from brokerage activities of $257,000. Of the increase in base salaries in 2004, new lending and branch personnel in the Palm Beach County market added $421,000 and lending personnel in the new loan production office in Brevard County added $132,000. Key manager incentives and stock award compensation was higher in 2004 as well, representing a $1,049,000 increase year over year in incentives, versus 2003.
      Employee benefits increased $1,282,000 or 25.5 percent in 2005, and were $436,000 or 9.5 percent higher in 2004 compared to 2003. During 2005, higher group health insurance costs, payroll taxes and profit sharing accruals for the Company’s 401K plan of $517,000, $232,000 and $505,000, respectively, were the primary cause for the increase year over year. Profit sharing accruals were $432,000 higher in 2004, as were payroll taxes, up $152,000 year over year; partially offsetting, better claims experience resulted in a $147,000 decline in health insurance in 2004, compared to 2003.
      Outsourced data processing costs totaled $6,477,000 for 2005, an increase of $761,000 or 13.3 percent from a year ago versus a $451,000 or 8.6 percent increase in 2004. The Company’s subsidiary banks utilize third parties for their core data processing systems and merchant credit card services processing. Outsourced data processing costs are directly related to the number of transactions processed, which can be expected to increase as the Company’s business volumes grow and new products such as bill pay, internet banking, etc. become more popular.
      Occupancy and furniture and equipment expenses during 2005, on an aggregate basis, increased $1,099,000 or 17.9 percent year over year, versus a $453,000 or 8.0 percent increase in 2004. Costs related to new locations impacted both 2005 and 2004. Of the $1,099,000 increase for 2005, $547,000 was related to Century and $281,000 to new Palm Beach County sites. For 2004, the significant increases were in lease

payments for premises, utility costs, and furniture and equipment purchases, up $172,000, $77,000 and $101,000, respectively.
      Marketing expenses, including sales promotion costs, ad agency production and printing costs, newspaper and radio advertising, and other public relations costs associated with the Company’s efforts to market products and services, increased by $729,000 or 29.6 percent in 2005, compared to a $346,000 or 16.3 percent increase in 2004 versus 2003. For 2005, ad agency production and printing costs were $146,000 higher year over year, media costs for newspaper and radio advertising were up $104,000, sales promotions was $89,000 higher, expenditures for direct mail campaigns were $109,000 greater, charitable donations were up $80,000, and public relations costs increased $101,000, primarily due to additional costs for the new Palm Beach and Brevard County markets. In addition, a new checking account acquisition program was initiated in November 2005 targeting non-customers, with an emphasis on gathering new low cost deposit accounts and increasing noninterest fee income; costs for this program in the fourth quarter totaled $59,000. For 2004, newspaper advertising was $252,000 higher, primarily due to additional advertising in the new Palm Beach County market.
      Legal and professional fees increased $752,000 or 40.8 percent to $2,595,000 for 2005, compared to a $507,000 or 37.9 percent increase in 2004 compared to 2003. Higher professional fees and audit fees associated with the Company’s external audit and one time outside consulting assistance were the causes for the increase in 2005. Efforts to comply with the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act added approximately $500,000 in direct expenses to overhead in 2004.
      With the Century acquisition in the second quarter of 2005, core deposit intangibles increased by $2.3 million. This intangible asset has an initial estimated life of five years. For the fourth quarter of 2005 and total year 2005, amortization of intangibles totaled $119,000 and $533,000, respectively. In 2004 no amortization expense was incurred and for 2003 amortization of $150,000 was recorded.
      Remaining noninterest expenses increased $1,999,000 in 2005 or 28.7 percent to $8,958,000 and $297,000 in 2004 or 4.5 percent to $6,959,000. Increasing year over year for 2005 versus 2004 were costs for postage, courier and delivery services (up $144,000 on an aggregate basis), telephone and data lines (up $190,000), professional development (up $171,000), employment advertising, placement and relocation costs (up $268,000), higher miscellaneous losses due to fraud and robbery (up $381,000), and stationery, printing and supplies (up $130,000). Increasing to a lesser extent in 2005 were property and liability insurance, travel reimbursement (principally mileage), books and publications, and bank paid closing costs.
      Interest Rate Sensitivity Fluctuations in rates may result in changes in the fair market value of the Company’s financial instruments, cash flows and net interest income. This risk is managed using simulation modeling to calculate the most likely interest rate risk utilizing estimated loan and deposit growth. The objective is to optimize the Company’s financial position, liquidity, and net interest income while limiting their volatility.
      Senior management regularly reviews the overall interest rate risk position and evaluates strategies to manage the risk. The Company has determined that an acceptable level of interest rate risk would be for net interest income to fluctuate no more than 6 percent given a parallel change in interest rates (up or down) of 200 basis points. The Company’s most recent Asset and Liability Management Committee (ALCO) model simulations indicate net interest income would increase 1.7 percent if interest rates gradually rise 200 basis points over the next twelve months. While management places a lower probability on significant rate declines after the Federal Reserve’s 25 basis point increases in June, August, September, November and December 2004 (a total of 125 basis points) and in February, March, May, July, August, September, November and December 2005 (an additional 200 basis points in total), the model simulation indicates net interest income would decrease 0.3 percent over the next twelve months given a gradual decline in interest rates of 100 basis points. It has been the Company’s experience that non-maturity core deposit balances are stable and subjected to limited re-pricing when interest rates increase or decrease within a range of 200 basis points.

      On December 31, 2005, the Company had a negative gap position based on contractual and prepayment assumptions for the next twelve months, with a negative cumulative interest rate sensitivity gap as a percentage of total earning assets of 5.8 percent (see “Table 19 — Interest Rate Sensitivity Analysis”), compared to a negative gap of 14.0 percent a year ago.
      The computations of interest rate risk do not necessarily include certain actions management may undertake to manage this risk in response to changes in interest rates. Derivative financial instruments, such as interest rate swaps, options, caps, floors, futures and forward contracts may be utilized as components of the Company’s risk management profile.
      Market Risk Market risk refers to potential losses arising from changes in interest rates, and other relevant market rates or prices.
      Interest rate risk, defined as the exposure of net interest income and Economic Value of Equity (EVE) to adverse movements in interest rates, is the Company’s primary market risk, and mainly arises from the structure of the balance sheet (non-trading activities). Seacoast is also exposed to market risk in its investing activities. The ALCO meets regularly and is responsible for reviewing the interest rate sensitivity position of the Company and establishing policies to monitor and limit exposure to interest rate risk. The policies established by ALCO are reviewed and approved by the Company’s Board of Directors. The primary goal of interest rate risk management is to control exposure to interest rate risk, within policy limits approved by the Board. These limits reflect the Company’s tolerance for interest rate risk over short-term and long-term horizons.
      The Company also performs valuation analysis, which is used for discerning levels of risk present in the balance sheet that might not be taken into account in the net interest income simulation analysis. Whereas net interest income simulation highlights exposures over a relatively short time horizon, valuation analysis incorporates all cash flows over the estimated remaining life of all balance sheet positions. The valuation of the balance sheet, at a point in time, is defined as the discounted present value of asset cash flows minus the discounted value of liability cash flows, the net of which is referred to as EVE. The sensitivity of EVE to changes in the level of interest rates is a measure of the longer-term re-pricing risk and options risk embedded in the balance sheet. In contrast to the net interest income simulation, which assumes interest rates will change over a period of time, EVE uses instantaneous changes in rates. EVE values only the current balance sheet, and does not incorporate the growth assumptions that are used in the net interest income simulation model. As with the net interest income simulation model, assumptions about the timing and variability of balance sheet cash flows are critical in the EVE analysis. Particularly important are the assumptions driving prepayments and the expected changes in balances and pricing of the indeterminate life deposit portfolios. Based on our most recent modeling, an instantaneous 100 basis point increase in rates is estimated to increase the EVE 6.5 percent versus the EVE in a stable rate environment. An instantaneous 100 basis point decrease in rates is estimated to decrease the EVE 5.3 percent versus the EVE in a stable rate environment.
      While an instantaneous and severe shift in interest rates is used in this analysis to provide an estimate of exposure under an extremely adverse scenario, a gradual shift in interest rates would have a much more modest impact. Since EVE measures the discounted present value of cash flows over the estimated lives of instruments, the change in EVE does not directly correlate to the degree that earnings would be impacted over a shorter time horizon, i.e., the next fiscal year. Further, EVE does not take into account factors such as future balance sheet growth, changes in product mix, change in yield curve relationships, and changing product spreads that could mitigate the adverse impact of changes in interest rates.
      Liquidity Risk Management Liquidity risk involves the risk of being unable to fund assets with the appropriate duration and rate-based liability, as well as the risk of not being able to meet unexpected cash needs. Liquidity planning and management are necessary to ensure the ability to fund operations cost-effectively and to meet current and future potential obligations such as loan commitments and unexpected deposit outflows.

      Funding sources primarily include customer-based core deposits, purchased funds, and collateralized borrowings, cash flows from operations, and asset securitizations and sales.
      Cash flows from operations are a significant component of liquidity risk management and consider both deposit maturities and the scheduled cash flows from loan and investment maturities and payments. Deposits are a primary source of liquidity. The stability of this funding source is affected by factors, including returns available to customers on alternative investments, the quality of customer service levels and competitive forces.
      We purchase funds on an unsecured basis from correspondent banks and routinely use securities and loans as collateral for secured borrowings. In the event of severe market disruptions, we have access to secured borrowings through the Federal Reserve Bank.
      Contractual maturities for assets and liabilities are reviewed to adequately maintain current and expected future liquidity requirements. Sources of liquidity, both anticipated and unanticipated, are maintained through a portfolio of high quality marketable assets, such as residential mortgage loans, securities available for sale and federal funds sold. The Company has access to federal funds and FHLB lines of credit and is able to provide short term financing of its activities by selling, under an agreement to repurchase, United States Treasury and Government agency securities and mortgage backed securities not pledged to secure public deposits or trust funds. At December 31, 2005, the Company had available lines of credit of $176 million. At December 31, 2005, the Company had $342 million of United States Treasury and Government agency securities and mortgage backed securities not pledged and available for use under repurchase agreements. At December 31, 2004, the amount of securities available and not pledged was $380 million.
      Liquidity, as measured in the form of cash and cash equivalents (including federal funds sold and interest bearing deposits), totaled $220,493,000 at December 31, 2005 as compared to $89,678,000 at December 31, 2004. Cash and cash equivalents vary with seasonal deposit movements and are generally higher in the winter than in the summer, and vary with the level of principal repayments and investment activity occurring in the Company’s securities portfolio and loan portfolio. At December 31, 2005, cash and cash equivalents were higher due to the addition of Century; of the $220,493,000 in cash and cash equivalents, $142,900,000 directly relates to Century. The higher liquidity maintained by Century pertains in part to late day settlement transactions (wire transfers) for large commercial customers in the Orlando market.
      Off-Balance Sheet Transactions In the normal course of business, we engage in a variety of financial transactions that, under generally accepted accounting principles, either are not recorded on the

27


Table of Contents

balance sheet or are recorded on the balance sheet in amounts that differ from the full contract or notional amounts. These transactions involve varying elements of market, credit and liquidity risk.
      The two primary off-balance sheet transactions the Company has engaged in are: 1) to manage exposure to interest rate risk (derivatives), and 2) to facilitate customers’ funding needs or risk management objectives (commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit).
      Derivative transactions are often measured in terms of a notional amount, but this amount is not recorded on the balance sheet and is not, when viewed in isolation, a meaningful measure of the risk profile of the instruments. The notional amount is not usually exchanged, but is used only as the basis upon which interest or other payments are calculated.
      The derivatives the Company uses to manage exposure to interest rate risk are interest rate swaps. All interest rate swaps are recorded on the balance sheet at fair value with realized and unrealized gains and losses included either in the results of operations or in other comprehensive income, depending on the nature and purpose of the derivative transaction.
      Credit risk of these transactions is managed by establishing a credit limit for each counterparty and through collateral agreements. The fair value of interest rate swaps recorded in the balance sheet at December 31, 2005 included derivative product assets of $19,000 and derivative product liabilities of $515,000.
      Lending commitments include unfunded loan commitments and standby and commercial letters of credit. A large majority of loan commitments and standby letters of credit expire without being funded, and accordingly, total contractual amounts are not representative of our actual future credit exposure or liquidity requirements. Loan commitments and letters of credit expose us to credit risk in the event that the customer draws on the commitment and subsequently fails to perform under the terms of the lending agreement.
      Loan commitments to customers are made in the normal course of our commercial and retail lending businesses. For commercial customers, loan commitments generally take the form of revolving credit arrangements. For retail customers, loan commitments generally are lines of credit secured by residential property. These instruments are not recorded on the balance sheet until funds are advanced under the commitment. For loan commitments, the contractual amount of a commitment represents the maximum potential credit risk that could result if the entire commitment had been funded, the borrower had not performed according to the terms of the contract, and no collateral had been provided. Loan commitments were $398 million at December 31, 2005, and $307 million at December 31, 2004.
      Income Taxes Income taxes as a percentage of income before taxes were 36.0 percent for 2005, compared to 35.1 percent in 2004 and 34.6 percent for 2003. Beginning in January 2003 the Company formed a subsidiary and transferred certain real estate assets to a real estate investment trust (REIT). As a result, the Company’s state income tax liability was reduced. The rate was slightly higher for 2005, with the addition of Century limiting utilization of the REIT.
Financial Condition
      Total assets increased $516,298,000 or 32.0 percent to $2,132,174,000 in 2005, after increasing $262,053,000 or 19.4 percent to $1,615,876,000 in 2004.
      Capital Resources Table 8 summarizes the Company’s capital position and selected ratios. The Company’s ratio of shareholders’ equity to period end total assets was 7.16 percent at December 31, 2005, compared with 6.70 percent one year earlier.
      During 2005, the Company formed two wholly owned trust subsidiaries, SBCF Capital Trust I and SBCF Statutory Trust II. These subsidiaries each issued $20.0 million (a total of $40.0 million) in trust preferred securities, guaranteed by the Company on a junior subordinated basis. The Company obtained the proceeds from the trust’s sale of trust preferred securities by issuing junior subordinated debentures to the trust. Under revised Interpretation No. 46 (FIN 46R) recently promulgated by Financial Accounting

28


Table of Contents

Standards Board (FASB), the trust must be deconsolidated with the Company for accounting purposes. As a result of this recent accounting pronouncement, the Federal Reserve Board adopted changes to its capital rules with respect to the regulatory capital treatment afforded to trust preferred securities. The Federal Reserve Board’s rules permit qualified trust preferred securities and other restricted capital elements to be included as Tier 1 capital up to 25% of core capital, net of goodwill and intangibles. The Company believes that its trust preferred securities qualify under these revised regulatory capital rules and expects that it will be able to treat its $40.0 million of trust preferred securities as Tier 1 capital. For regulatory purposes, the trust preferred securities are added to the Company’s tangible common shareholders’ equity to calculate Tier I capital. At December 31, 2005, the Company’s risk-based capital ratio was 11.76 percent, an increase from December 31, 2004’s reported ratio of 10.99 percent and reflecting the addition of the $40 million in trust preferred stock to Tier 1 risk based capital.
      The Company manages the size of its equity through a program of share repurchases of its outstanding Common stock. A total of 737,000 stock option shares are outstanding, of which 486,000 are exercisable; during 2005, 80,000 shares were exercised (see “Note J — Employee Benefits”). In treasury stock at December 31, 2005, there were 19,335 shares totaling $218,000, compared to 1,635,293 shares or $16,172,000 a year ago. The primary cause for the decline in treasury stock was the issuance of shares during the second quarter of 2005 for the acquisition of Century.
      Loan Portfolio Table 9 shows total loans (net of unearned income) by category outstanding.
      Total loans (net of unearned income and excluding the allowance for loan losses) were $1,289,995,000 at December 31, 2005, $390,448,000 or 43.4 percent more than at December 31, 2004. Of the $390 million increase, $120 million is directly attributable to the addition of Century. At December 31, 2004, total loans of $899,547,000 were $190,755,000 or 26.9 percent higher than at December 31, 2003.
      During 2005, $80 million of residential mortgage loan production totaling $216 million was sold compared to $78 million of $224 million in production during 2004. These loan sales were without recourse. The Company began selectively adding residential loans, primarily with adjustable rates, to its loan portfolio in late 2003. In 2004 and 2005, the proportion of adjustable rate residential mortgages steadily increased as mortgage rates offered increased. As a result, sales of fixed rate residential mortgage loans declined. Management expects prospective sales of fixed rate residential mortgage loans will likely remain lower as a percentage share of production as long as rates are at their current levels. It is important to note that over a number of years, the Company has been able to realize a reduction in the relative size of the residential loan portfolio and increase the size of the Company’s commercial and consumer loan portfolios. The Company anticipates loan balances will continue to increase prospectively and believes the mix that has been achieved can be maintained.
      The response to the Company’s expansion into new markets continues to be very positive. At December 31, 2005, $248.4 million in loans are outstanding in Palm Beach County with a pipeline of approximately $78 million pending at year-end 2005. In comparison, $134.7 million in loans were outstanding with a loan pipeline of approximately $122 million pending at year-end 2004. In Brevard County, entered into in mid-2004 with the opening of a loan production office, $27.9 million in loans are outstanding at year-end 2005, with a pipeline of $29 million pending. The addition of Century in Orange and Seminole County (the Orlando area), another vibrant Florida market, provides the Company with a loan base of $120.0 million at December 31, 2005, and a pipeline of loans totaling $14 million.
      At December 31, 2005, the Company’s mortgage loan balances secured by residential properties amounted to $348,924,000 or 27.0 percent of total loans (versus $246,935,000 or 27.5 percent a year ago). Loans secured by residential properties having fixed rates totaled approximately $141 million at December 31, 2005, of which 15-and 30-year mortgages totaled approximately $35 million and $39 million, respectively. Remaining fixed rate balances were comprised of home improvement loans, most with maturities of 10 years or less. In comparison, loans secured by residential properties having fixed rates totaled approximately $125 million at December 31, 2004, with 15- and 30-year fixed rate residential mortgages totaling approximately $32 million and $30 million, respectively.

      The Company also sold $177 million in marine loans during 2005 generated by Seacoast Marine Finance (with total production totaling $189 million), compared to $155 million sold in 2004 from production of $171 million. All marine loan sales are without recourse as well.
      The Company’s loan portfolio secured by commercial real estate increased $230.2 million or 51.6 percent over the last twelve months. The Company’s commercial real estate lending strategy stresses quality loan growth from local businesses, professionals, experienced developers and investors. At December 31, 2005, the Company had commercial real estate loans totaling $676.5 million or 52.4 percent of total loans (versus $446.3 million or 49.6 percent a year ago). At December 31, 2005 and 2004, funded and unfunded commitments for commercial real estate loans were comprised of the following types of loans:

      Construction and land development loans increased $174.9 or 69.3 percent from a year ago to $427,216,000 at December 31, 2005. Of this total, $344,583,000 is collateralized by commercial real estate and $82,633,000 by residential real estate. In comparison, at December 31, 2004, $194,581,000 was collateralized by commercial real estate and $57,748,000 by residential real estate. All of the commercial real estate construction and land development loans are included in the table above. Some of the commercial real estate loans will convert to permanent financing as mortgages, while most of these loans will payoff, the source of repayment from the sale of completed units. The construction period generally ranges from 18 to 24 months. Strong demand in the Company’s market area and the rate of absorption of new real estate product have provided the opportunity for growth in these type loans. Expectations in the near term are that growth may continue, perhaps moderating if interest rates continue to rise.
      The Company’s ten largest commercial real estate funded and unfunded loan relationships at December 31, 2005 aggregated to $152.4 million (versus $136.5 million a year ago) and for the top 51 commercial real estate relationships in excess of $5 million the aggregate funded and unfunded totaled $505.3 million.
      Loans and commitments for one-to-four family residential properties and commercial real estate are generally secured with first mortgages on property, with the loan to fair value of the property not exceeding 80 percent on the date the loan is made.
      The Company was also a creditor for consumer loans to individual customers (including installment loans, loans for automobiles, boats, and other personal, family and household purposes, and indirect loans through dealers to finance automobiles) totaling $82,942,000 (versus $81,831,000 a year ago), real estate

30


Table of Contents

construction loans secured by residential properties totaling $56,957,000 (versus $39,736,000 a year ago) and residential lot loans totaling $25,676,000 (versus $18,012,000 a year ago). Most consumer loans are secured.
      The Treasure Coast is a residential community with commercial activity centered in retail and service businesses serving the local residents and seasonal visitors. Real estate mortgage lending is an important segment of the Company’s lending activities. Exposure to market interest rate volatility with respect to mortgage loans is managed by attempting to match maturities and re-pricing opportunities for assets against liabilities and through loan sales. At December 31, 2005, approximately $166 million or 54 percent of the Company’s residential mortgage loan balances were adjustable, compared to $111 million or 48 percent a year ago.
      The Company’s historical charge-off rates for residential real estate loans have been minimal, with no charge-offs or recoveries for 2005 or 2004. The Company considers residential mortgages less susceptible to adverse effects from a downturn in the real estate market.
      Fixed rate and adjustable rate loans secured by commercial real estate, excluding construction loans, totaled approximately $118 million and $214 million, respectively, at December 31, 2005, compared to $87 million and $165 million, respectively, a year ago.
      Commercial lending activities are directed principally towards businesses whose demand for funds are within the Company’s lending limits, such as small to medium sized professional firms, retail and wholesale outlets, and light industrial and manufacturing concerns. Such businesses typically are smaller, often have short operating histories and do not have the sophisticated record keeping systems of larger entities. Most of such loans are secured by real estate used by such businesses, although certain lines are unsecured. Such loans are subject to the risks inherent to lending to small to medium sized businesses including the effects of a sluggish local economy, possible business failure, and insufficient cash flows. The Company’s commercial loan portfolio totaled $98,653,000 at December 31, 2005, compared to $66,240,000 at December 31, 2004.
      Second mortgage loans and home equity lines are extended by the Company. No negative amortization loans or lines are offered at the present time. Terms of second mortgage loans include fixed rates for up to 10 years on smaller loans of $30,000 or less. Such loans are sometimes made for larger amounts with fixed rates, but balloon payments upon maturity, not exceeding five years.
      At December 31, 2005, the Company had commitments to make loans of $398,183,000, compared to $307,021,000 at December 31, 2004 (see “Note P — Contingent Liabilities and Commitments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk”).
      Deposits and Borrowings Total deposits increased $411,753,000 or 30.0 percent to $1,784,219,000 at December 31, 2005, compared to one year earlier. Of this increase in deposits, $17.7 million was from a branch acquisition in January 2005 and $304 million was acquired in the Century acquisition. During 2005, CDs increased $70,907,000 or 19.8 percent to $429,192,000, lower cost interest bearing deposits (NOW, savings and money markets deposits) increased $212,972,000 or 31.8 percent to $882,031,000, and noninterest bearing demand deposits increased $127,874,000 or 37.1 percent to $472,996,000. Of the amounts indicated at December 31, 2005, outstanding balances for Century for CDs totaled $25 million, lower cost interest bearing deposits totaled $199 million, and noninterest bearing deposits totaled $125 million (predominately business demand deposits of $110 million). In comparison to 2003, deposits increased $242,824,000 or 21.5 percent in 2004 to $1,372,466,000.
      The Company’s success in marketing desirable products in this environment, in particular its array of money market and NOW product offerings, enhanced growth in lower cost interest bearing deposits. Growth in business demand deposits of $127,453,000 comprised most of the increase in noninterest bearing deposits. The Company’s market extension into Palm Beach County beginning in early 2003 and branch expansion since then has aided the growth of noninterest bearing and lower cost interest bearing deposits.

      Repurchase agreement balances increased over the past twelve months by $9,867,000 or 11.4 percent to $96,786,000 at December 31, 2005. Repurchase agreements are offered to select customers who wish to sweep excess balances on a daily basis for investment purposes. The number of sweep repurchase accounts increased from 104 a year ago to 136 at December 31, 2005.
      Effects of Inflation and Changing Prices The financial statements and related financial data presented herein have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, which require the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars, without considering changes in the relative purchasing power of money, over time, due to inflation.
      Unlike most industrial companies, virtually all of the assets and liabilities of a financial institution are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates have a more significant impact on a financial institution’s performance than the general level of inflation. However, inflation affects financial institutions’ increased cost of goods and services purchased the cost of salaries and benefits, occupancy expense, and similar items. Inflation and related increases in interest rates generally decrease the market value of investments and loans held and may adversely affect liquidity, earnings, and shareholders’ equity. Mortgage originations and re-financings tend to slow as interest rates increase, and likely will reduce the Company’s earnings from such activities and the income from the sale of residential mortgage loans in the secondary market.
      Securities Information related to yields, maturities, carrying values and unrealized gains (losses) of the Company’s securities is set forth in Tables 15-18.
      At December 31, 2005, the Company had $392,952,000 or 72.4 percent of securities designated held for sale, compared to $389,466,000 or 66.2 percent at December 31, 2004. Securities held to maturity were carried at an amortized cost of $150,072,000, representing 27.6 percent of total securities, versus $198,551,000 or 33.8 percent a year ago. The Company’s total securities portfolio decreased $44,993,000 or 7.7 percent year over year. Maturities of securities of $214.9 million, sales of $51.0 million and purchases totaling $145.3 million were transacted over the last twelve months.
      At December 31, 2004, securities available for sale were $90,497,000 or 18.9 percent lower and securities held to maturity were $117,685,000 higher, when compared to balances at year-end 2003. Most of the increase in securities held to maturity occurred November 1, 2004, when the Company transferred $110,474,000 in securities from held for sale to held to maturity. The transfer was made in anticipation of a predicted rising interest rate environment translating to further declines in fair value of the securities, thereby negatively affecting other comprehensive income and total shareholders’ equity. The Company’s total securities portfolio increased $28,669,000 or 5.1 percent from December 31, 2003 to December 31, 2004. During 2004, a total of $136.7 million in proceeds were derived from sales, maturities totaled $132.3 million and purchases of $308.2 million were recorded. The sales were transacted to provide liquidity for lending activities.
      Management controls the Company’s interest rate risk by maintaining a low average duration for the securities portfolio through the acquisition of securities returning principal monthly that can be reinvested. The estimated average life of the investment portfolio at December 31, 2005 was 2.1 years, slightly lower than a year ago when the average life was 2.3 years.
      At December 31, 2005, unrealized net securities losses totaled $8,663,000, compared to net losses of $3,280,000 at December 31, 2004. The Federal Reserve increased short-term interest rates 200 basis points during 2005 and the consensus market perception is that the Federal Reserve is likely to continue to increase rates prospectively. A shifting Treasury yield curve has affected the market value of the Company’s securities portfolio since the Federal Reserve began increasing interest rates in mid-2004. Company management considers the overall quality of the securities portfolio to be high. No securities are held which are not traded in liquid markets.
      Fourth Quarter Review Net income for the fourth quarter was $5.8 million or $0.34 diluted earnings per share, compared to $5.6 million or $0.32 diluted earnings per share in the third quarter of 2005 and $3.7 million or $0.24 diluted earnings per share in the fourth quarter of 2004. Returns on average assets and equity were 1.10 percent and 14.96 percent for the fourth quarter of 2005, compared to 1.09 percent

and 14.59 percent in the third quarter of 2005, and 0.97 percent and 13.38 percent in the fourth quarter of 2004.
      Net interest income on a fully tax equivalent basis for the fourth quarter of 2005 was $20,062,000, $971,000 or 5.1 percent greater than for the third quarter of 2005 and $5,904,000 or 41.7 percent higher than a year ago for the same quarter. The net interest margin for the fourth quarter was 4.04 percent, an increase from the 3.88 percent achieved in last year’s fourth quarter and a three basis point increase from the 4.01 percent in the third quarter of 2005. The net interest margin has steadily improved since the fourth quarter of 2004. The improvement in the net interest margin from the prior year resulted from increased asset yields, an improved earning asset mix, as well as growth in loans outstanding. Also contributing to the improvement from the prior year was the addition of Century, adding $3.3 million to net interest income in the fourth quarter. Average earning assets for the fourth quarter of 2005 increased $519.6 million or 35.8 percent from fourth quarter 2004, with average loans up $372.3 million or 42.4 percent (including average loans of $115.2 million for Century). Average securities balances were $40.5 million higher and federal funds sold and other short-term interest bearing assets increased $106.7 million year over year. Funding the increase in earning assets, average interest bearing deposits were $344.0 million higher year over year, noninterest bearing deposits were $133.9 million higher and borrowings were $55.3 million greater. The Company’s increased market penetration into Palm Beach County and Brevard County as well as the addition of Century in the second quarter of 2005 were primary drivers for the growth experienced.
      The provision for loan losses during the fourth quarter of 2005 totaled $330,000, reflecting the strong loan growth the Company has experienced. The higher provisioning of $450,000 recorded in the fourth quarter of 2004 was a result of slightly higher net charge-offs of $349,000 in the fourth quarter a year ago (primarily for a single commercial creditor). The Company has maintained strong and consistent credit quality and historically experienced low net charge-offs (see “Allowance for Loan Losses” and “Nonperforming Assets”).
      Noninterest income, excluding securities gains and losses, increased $1,072,000 or 26.7 percent when compared to the fourth quarter of 2004. Growing revenues from service charges on deposits (up $250,000 or 23.2 percent, principally in overdraft fees which were $241,000 higher), investment management services (trust and brokerage, $60,000 or 5.1 percent higher than a year ago on an aggregate basis), marine finance fees (up $206,000 or 34.3 percent), merchant income (higher by $76,000 or 16.7 percent), and more deposit based debit card and other EFT revenue (up $40,000 or 8.5 percent on a combined basis year over year) were partially offset by lower income from mortgage banking operations (due to lower refinance activities compared to 2004 and reflecting a greater proportion of loans being retained), down $57,000 or 16.4 percent. The CD swap transaction terminated in the second quarter of 2005 had no impact on fourth quarter 2005, but a loss in fair market value of $441,000 for the swap was recorded to noninterest income in the fourth quarter of 2004.
      Noninterest expenses totaled $15.7 million, an increase of $3.6 million or 30.0 percent from the prior year’s fourth quarter. A portion of the growth resulted from increased wages, benefits, occupancy, marketing and other overhead due to the addition of branches and personnel in the Palm Beach County and Brevard County markets, and from higher commissions, stock awards, profit sharing and other incentive compensation related to the Company’s improved performance. Century’s overhead added $1.4 million to total overhead in the fourth quarter of 2005 and amortization of core deposit intangibles (acquired in 2005) totaled $119,000, compared to zero for 2004.

REPORT OF MANAGEMENT’S ASSESSMENT OF INTERNAL CONTROL
OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
      We, as management of Seacoast Banking Corporation of Florida, are responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting that is designed to produce reliable financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is evaluated for effectiveness by management on an annual basis. Internal control over financial reporting cannot provide absolute assurance of achieving financial reporting objectives because of its inherent limitations. Internal control over financial reporting is a process that involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures. Internal control over financial reporting also can be circumvented by collusion or improper management override. Because of such limitations, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk. Also, because of changes in conditions, the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting may vary over time. Accordingly, even effective internal control over financial reporting will provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation.
      The Company acquired Century National Bank (Century) during 2005, and management excluded from its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005, Century’s internal control over financial reporting associated with total assets of $409 million and total revenues of $10.7 million included in the consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the year ended December 31, 2005.
      Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005, based on criteria established in “Internal Control — Integrated Framework,” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this assessment, management concluded that, as of December 31, 2005, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective based on criteria established in “Internal Control — Integrated Framework”. KPMG LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, has audited management’s assessment of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005, and their report is included herein.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Seacoast Banking Corporation of Florida:
      We have audited management’s assessment, included in the accompanying Report of Management’s Assessment of Internal Control over Financial Reporting, that Seacoast Banking Corporation of Florida and subsidiaries (the Company) maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on management’s assessment and an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.
      We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, evaluating management’s assessment, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
      A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
      Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
      In our opinion, management’s assessment that the Company maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005, is fairly stated, in all material respects, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the COSO. Also, in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the COSO.
      The Company acquired Century National Bank during 2005, and management excluded from its assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2005, Century National Bank’s internal control over financial reporting associated with total assets of $409 million and total revenues of $10.7 million included in the consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the year ended December 31, 2005. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting of the Company also excluded an evaluation of the internal control over financial reporting of Century National Bank.

SEACOAST BANKING CORPORATION OF FLORIDA AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note A     Significant Accounting Policies
      General: The Company is a single segment bank holding company with two operating subsidiary banks, First National Bank and Trust Company and Century National Bank (“Century”). The banks’ service area includes Palm Beach, Martin, St. Lucie, Brevard, Indian River, Orange and Seminole counties, which are located in southeast Florida. The banks operate 34 full service branches within its markets.
      The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Parent Company and all its majority-owned subsidiaries (excludes two trusts created for issuance of trust preferred securities in 2005) including FNB RE Services, Inc., a real estate investment trust. In consolidation, all significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated.
      The accounting and reporting policies of the Company are in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and they conform to general practices within the applicable industries.
      The Company signed a definitive agreement to acquire Big Lake National Bank that is located in central Florida serving seven counties with nine offices. This acquisition will increase the Company’s assets by approximately $312 million and deposits by $298 million. Due to rapid growth of the existing coastal communities there is an increasing growth in population and business activities in these central Florida markets which are a natural extension of the company’s operations in Palm Beach, Treasure Coast and Orlando markets.
      Cash and Cash Equivalents: Cash and cash equivalents include cash and due from banks, interest-bearing bank balances and federal funds sold and securities purchased under resale agreements. Cash and cash equivalents have maturities of three months or less, and accordingly, the carrying amount of these instruments is deemed to be a reasonable estimate of fair value.
      Securities Purchased and Sold Agreements: Securities purchased under resale agreements and securities sold under repurchase agreements are accounted for as collateralized financing transactions and are recorded at the amount at which the securities were acquired or sold plus accrued interest. It is the Company’s policy to take possession of securities purchased under resale agreements, which are primarily U.S. Government and Government agency securities. The market value of securities purchased and sold is monitored and collateral is obtained from or returned to the counterparty when appropriate.
      Use of Estimates: The preparation of these financial statements required the use of certain estimates by management in determining the Company’s assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Specific areas, among others, requiring the application of management’s estimates include calculation of the allowance for loan losses and the valuation of investment securities held for sale and goodwill. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
      Securities: Securities that may be sold as part of the Company’s asset/liability management or in response to, or in anticipation of changes in interest rates and resulting prepayment risk, or for other factors are stated at fair value with unrealized gains or losses reflected as a component of shareholders’ equity net of tax or included in noninterest income as appropriate. The estimated fair value of a security is determined based on market quotations when available or, if not available, by using a discounted cash flow approach. Realized gains and losses, including other than temporary impairments, are included in noninterest income as investment securities gains (losses). Debt securities that the Company has the ability and intent to hold to maturity are carried at amortized cost. Interest income on securities, including amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts, is recognized using the interest method.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
      On a quarterly basis, the Company makes an assessment to determine whether there have been any events or economic circumstances to indicate that a security is impaired on an other-than-temporary basis. Management considers many factors including the length of time the security has had a market value less than the cost basis; the intent and ability to hold the security for a period of time sufficient for a recovery in value; recent events specific to the issuer or industry; and for debt securities, external credit ratings and recent downgrades. Securities on which there is an unrealized loss that is deemed to be other-than- temporary are written down to fair value with the write-down recorded as a realized loss.
      The Company anticipates prepayments of principal in the calculation of the effective yield for collateralized mortgage obligations and mortgage backed securities by obtaining estimates of prepayments from independent third parties. The adjusted cost of each specific security sold is used to compute gains or losses on the sale of securities.
      For securities which are transferred into held to maturity from held for sale the unrealized gain or loss at the date of transfer is reported as a component of shareholders’ equity and is amortized over the remaining life as an adjustment of yield using the interest method.
      Loans: Loans are recognized at the principal amount outstanding, net of unearned income and amounts charged off. Unearned income includes deferred loan origination fees reduced by loan origination costs. Unearned income on loans is amortized to interest income over the life of the related loan using the interest method.
      Fees received for providing loan commitments and letters of credit that result in loans are typically deferred and amortized to interest income over the life of the related loan, beginning with the initial borrowing. Fees on commitments and letters of credit are amortized to noninterest income as banking fees and commissions over the commitment period when funding is not expected.
      A loan is considered to be impaired when based on current information, it is probable the Company will not receive all amounts due in accordance with the contractual terms of a loan agreement. The fair value is measured based on either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s observable market price or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. A loan is also considered impaired if its terms are modified in a troubled debt restructuring. When the ultimate collectibility of the principal balance of an impaired loan is in doubt, all cash receipts are applied to principal. Once the recorded principal balance has been reduced to zero, future cash receipts are applied to interest income, to the extent any interest has been forgone, and then they are recorded as recoveries of any amounts previously charged off.
      The accrual of interest is generally discontinued on loans and leases, except consumer loans, that become 90 days past due as to principal or interest unless collection of both principal and interest is assured by way of collateralization, guarantees or other security. Generally, loans past due 90 days or more are placed on nonaccrual status regardless of security. Consumer loans that become 120 days past due are generally charged to the allowance for loan losses. When borrowers demonstrate over an extended period the ability to repay a loan in accordance with the contractual terms of a loan classified as nonaccrual, the loan is returned to accrual status.
      Derivatives Used for Risk Management: On January 1, 2001, the Company adopted SFAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”, as subsequently amended by SFAS 137, SFAS 138 and SFAS 149, which establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivatives and hedging activities. SFAS 133 was adopted on a prospective basis.
      Under SFAS 133, the Company may designate a derivative as either a hedge of the fair value of a recognized fixed rate asset or liability or an unrecognized firm commitment (“fair value” hedge), a hedge of a forecasted transaction or of the variability of future cash flows of a floating rate asset or liability

59


Table of Contents

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
(“cash flow” hedge). All derivatives are recorded as other assets or other liabilities on the balance sheet at their respective fair values with unrealized gains and losses recorded either in other comprehensive income or in the results of operations, depending on the purpose for which the derivative is held. Derivatives that do not meet the criteria for designation as a hedge under SFAS 133 at inception, or fail to meet the criteria thereafter, are carried at fair value with unrealized gains and losses recorded in the results of operations.
      To the extent of the effectiveness of a cash flow hedge, changes in the fair value of a derivative that is designated and qualifies as a cash flow hedge are recorded in other comprehensive income. The net periodic interest settlement on derivatives is treated as an adjustment to the interest income or interest expense of the hedged assets or liabilities.
      At inception of a hedge transaction, the Company formally documents the hedge relationship and the risk management objective and strategy for undertaking the hedge. This process includes identification of the hedging instrument, hedged item, risk being hedged and the methodology for measuring ineffectiveness. In addition, the Company assesses both at the inception of the hedge and on an ongoing quarterly basis, whether the derivative used in the hedging transaction has been highly effective in offsetting changes in fair value or cash flows of the hedged item, and whether the derivative as a hedging instrument is no longer appropriate.
      The Company discontinues hedge accounting prospectively when either it is determined that the derivative is no longer highly effective in offsetting changes in the fair value or cash flows of a hedged item; the derivative expires or is sold, terminated or exercised; the derivative is de-designated because it is unlikely that a forecasted transaction will occur; or management determines that designation of the derivative as a hedging instrument is no longer appropriate.
      When a fair value hedge is discontinued, the hedged asset or liability is no longer adjusted for changes in fair value and the existing basis adjustment is amortized or accreted as an adjustment to yield over the remaining life of the asset or liability. When a cash flow hedge is discontinued but the hedged cash flows or forecasted transaction are still expected to occur, unrealized gains and losses that are accumulated in other comprehensive income are included in the results of operations in the same period when the results of operations are also affected by the hedged cash flow. They are recognized in the results of operations immediately if the cash flow hedge was discontinued because a forecasted transaction is not expected to occur.
      Under SFAS 133, as amended, certain commitments to sell loans are derivatives. These commitments are recorded as a freestanding derivative and classified as an other asset or liability.
      Loans Held for Sale: Loans held for sale and any related unfunded lending commitments are recorded at the lower of cost (which is the carrying amount net of deferred fees and costs and applicable allowance for loan losses and reserve for unfunded lending commitments) or market value less costs to sell. At the time of the transfer to loans held for sale, if the market value is less than cost, the difference is recorded as additional provision for credit losses in the results of operations. Market value is determined based on quoted market prices for the same or similar loans, outstanding investor commitments or discounted cash flow analyses using market assumptions. At December 31, 2005 market value for substantially all the loans in loans held for sale were obtained by reference to prices for the same or similar loans from recent transactions. For a relationship that includes an unfunded lending commitment, the cost basis is the outstanding balance of the loan net of the allowance for loan losses and net of any accrual for unfunded lending commitments. This cost basis is compared to the market value of the entire relationship including the unfunded lending commitment.
      Individual loans or pools of loans are transferred from the loan portfolio to loans held for sale when the intent to hold the loans has changed and there is a plan to sell the loans within a reasonable period of

60

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
time. Loans held for sale are reviewed quarterly. Subsequent declines or recoveries of previous declines in the market value of loans held for sale are recorded in other fee income in the results of operations. Market value changes occur due to changes in interest rates, the borrower’s credit, the secondary loan market and the market for a borrower’s debt. If an unfunded lending commitment expires before a sale occurs, the accrual associated with the unfunded lending commitment is recognized as a credit to other fee income in the results of operations.
      Other Real Estate Owned: Other real estate owned consists of real estate acquired in lieu of unpaid loan balances. These assets are carried at an amount equal to the loan balance prior to foreclosure plus costs incurred for improvements to the property, but no more than the estimated fair value of the property less estimated selling costs. Any valuation adjustments required at the date of transfer are charged to the allowance for loan losses. Subsequently, unrealized losses and realized gains and losses are included in other noninterest income. Operating results from OREO are recorded in other noninterest expense.
      Bank Premises and Equipment: Bank premises and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Premises and equipment include certain costs associated with the acquisition of leasehold improvements. Depreciation is computed principally by the straight-line method, over the estimated useful lives as follows: buildings — 25-40 years, leasehold improvements — 5-25 years, furniture and equipment — 3-12 years.
      Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets: Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” (“SFAS No. 142”). Under SFAS No. 142, goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are no longer amortized, but are subject to impairment tests at least annually. The Company’s goodwill evaluation for the year ended December 31, 2005 indicated that none of the goodwill is impaired. Intangible assets with finite lives continue to be amortized over the period the Company expects to benefit from such assets and are periodically reviewed for other than temporary impairment.
      Revenue Recognition: Interest on loans is accrued based upon the principal amount outstanding. The accrual of interest income is discontinued when a loan becomes 90 days past due as to principal or interest. When interest accruals are discontinued, interest credited to income in the current year is reversed.
      Management may elect to continue the accrual of interest when the estimated net realizable value of collateral is sufficient to cover the principal balance and accrued interest.
      Allowance for Loan Losses and Reserve for Unfunded Lending Commitments: The Company has developed policies and procedures for assessing the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses and the accrual for unfunded lending commitments that reflect the evaluation of credit risk after careful consideration of all available information. Where appropriate this assessment includes monitoring qualitative and quantitative trends including changes in levels of past due, criticized and nonperforming loans. In developing this assessment, the Company must necessarily rely on estimates and exercise judgment regarding matters where the ultimate outcome is unknown such as economic factors, developments affecting companies in specific industries and issues with respect to single borrowers. Depending on changes in circumstances, future assessments of credit risk may yield materially different results, which may result in an increase or a decrease in the allowance for loan losses.
      The allowance for loan losses and accrual for unfunded lending commitments is maintained at a level the Company believes is adequate to absorb probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio and unfunded lending commitments as of the date of the consolidated financial statements. The Company employs a variety of modeling and estimation tools in developing the appropriate allowance for loan losses and reserve for unfunded lending commitments. The allowance for loan losses and reserve for unfunded lending commitments consists of formula-based components for both commercial and consumer loans, allowance

Table of Contents

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
for impaired commercial loans and allowance related to additional factors that are believed indicative of current trends and business cycle issues.
      The Company monitors qualitative and quantitative trends in the loan portfolio, including changes in the levels of past due, criticized and nonperforming loans. The distribution of the allowance for loan losses and accrual for unfunded lending commitments between the various components does not diminish the fact that the entire allowance for loan losses and accrual for unfunded lending commitments is available to absorb credit losses in the loan portfolio. The principal focus is, therefore, on the adequacy of the total allowance for loan losses and accrual for unfunded lending commitments.
      In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Companys’ bank subsidiary’s allowance for loan losses and accrual for unfunded lending commitments. These agencies may require such subsidiaries to recognize changes to the allowance for loan losses and accrual for unfunded lending commitments based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination.
      Income Taxes: Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the consolidated financial statements and their related tax bases and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that are in effect. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in rates is recognized as income or expense in the period in which the change occurs.
      Net Income per Share: Net income per share is based upon the weighted average number of shares of common stock (Basic) and equivalents (Diluted) outstanding during the respective years. Per share amounts for 2003 reflect the issuance of an eleven for ten stock split effective August 2003.
      Employee Benefits: The three stock option plans are accounted for under APB Opinion No. 25, and therefore no compensation cost has been recognized. Had compensation cost for these plans been determined consistent with FASB Statement No. 123, the Company’s net income and earnings per share would have been reduced to the following pro forma amounts:

      The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. (See Note J)
      For restricted stock awards, which generally vest based on continued service with the Company, the deferred compensation is measured as the fair value of the shares on the date of grant, and the deferred compensation is amortized as salaries and employee benefits expense in the results of operations in accordance with the applicable vesting schedule, generally straight-line over five years. Some shares vest

based upon the Company achieving certain performance goals and salary amortization expense is based on an estimate of the most likely results on a straight line basis.
      Recent Accounting Pronouncements: ACCOUNTING CHANGES AND ERROR CORRECTIONS: SFAS 154 establishes, unless impracticable, retrospective application as the required method for reporting a change in accounting principle in the absence of explicit transition requirements specific to the newly adopted accounting principle. The statement is effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in years beginning after December 15, 2005. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition, the results of operations or liquidity.
      SHARE-BASED PAYMENT: In December 2004, the FASB revised SFAS 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. SFAS 123R establishes accounting requirements for share-based compensation to employees and carries forward prior guidance on accounting for awards to non-employees. The provisions of this statement will become effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005 for all equity awards. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition, the results of operations, or liquidity.
      MEANING OF OTHER THAN TEMPORARY IMPAIRMENT: In March 2004, the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) released Issue 03-01, Meaning of Other Than Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments, which addressed other-than-temporary impairment for certain debt and equity investments. The recognition and measurement requirements of Issue 03-01, and other disclosure requirements not already implemented, were effective for periods beginning after June 15, 2004. In September 2004, the FASB staff issued FASB Staff Position (FSP) 03-1-1, which delayed the effective date for certain measurement and recognition guidance contained in Issue 03-1. The issuance of the final consensus had no material impact on the Company’s financial condition, the results of operations, or liquidity.
      ACCOUNTING FOR CERTAIN LOANS OR DEBT SECURITIES ACQUIRED IN A TRANSFER: In December 2003, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued Statement of Position (SOP) 03-3, Accounting for Certain Loans or Debt Securities Acquired in a Transfer. SOP 03-3 requires acquired loans, including debt securities, to be recorded at the amount of the purchaser’s initial investment and prohibits carrying over valuation allowances from the seller for those individually-evaluated loans that have evidence of deterioration in credit quality since origination, and it is probable all contractual cash flows on the loan will be unable to be collected. SOP 03-3 also requires the excess of all undiscounted cash flows expected to be collected at acquisition over the purchaser’s initial investment to be recognized as interest income on a level-yield basis over the life of the loan. Subsequent increases in cash flows expected to be collected are recognized prospectively through an adjustment of the loan’s yield over its remaining life, while subsequent decreases are recognized as impairment. Loans carried at fair value, mortgage loans held for sale, and loans to borrowers in good standing under revolving credit agreements are excluded from the scope of SOP 03-3. The guidance is effective for loans acquired in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2004 and was adopted by the Company and it had no impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.
Note B     Business Combinations
      On November 4, 2004, the Company announced the signing of a definitive merger agreement with Century, and the merger was completed on April 30, 2005. The transaction resulted in the Company issuing 1.5 million shares of its common stock and a cash payment of $16.5 million for all shares of Century common stock and outstanding options. Based on the Company’s average of the closing prices for a period beginning two trading days before March 7, 2005 (OCC approval) and ending two days after of $22.33, the transaction is valued at $50 million.

Table of Contents

SEACOAST BANKING CORPORATION OF FLORIDA AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
      The Company entered into this business combination to enhance shareholder value by providing more products and services for customers in existing and key additional markets, by realizing increased economies of scale and having greater potential for growth following the merger.
      Under the purchase method of accounting, the assets and liabilities of Century were recorded at their respective fair values as of April 30, 2005, and the results of operations in 2005 include eight months of Century. The fair values are preliminary and subject to refinement as information relative to the fair values as of April 30, 2005, becomes available.
      Based on the ending Century tangible equity of $20.3 million, an aggregate purchase price of $50 million, the merger resulted in total intangible assets of $31.3 million ($30.4 million net of deferred income taxes). Of the total intangible assets, $2.3 million ($1.4 million net of deferred income taxes) was allocated to deposit base intangible, and $29.0 million to goodwill. Amortization expense using straight line method based on an average life of 60 months related to core deposit intangible is not deductible for income tax purposes; however, for financial reporting purposes deferred income tax liabilities were recorded. The deferred income tax liabilities will be reflected as an income tax benefit in the results of operations in proportion to and over the amortization period of the related intangible asset.

Note C     Cash, Dividend and Loan Restrictions
      In the normal course of business, the Company and its subsidiary banks enter into agreements, or are subject to regulatory agreements that result in cash, dividend and loan restrictions. A summary of the most restrictive items follows:
      The Company’s subsidiary banks are required to maintain average reserve balances with the Federal Reserve Bank. The average amount of those reserve balances was approximately $21,104,000 for 2005 and $9,115,000 for 2004.
      Under Federal Reserve regulation, the Company’s subsidiary banks are limited as to the amount they may loan to their affiliates, including the Company, unless such loans are collateralized by specified obligations. At December 31, 2005, the maximum amount available for transfer from the subsidiary banks to the Company in the form of loans approximated 26 percent of consolidated net assets.
      The approval of the Comptroller of the Currency is required if the total of all dividends declared by a national bank in any calendar year exceeds the bank’s profits, as defined, for that year combined with its retained net profits for the preceding two calendar years. Under this restriction the Company’s subsidiary banks on a combined basis can distribute as dividends to the Company in 2005, without prior approval of the Comptroller of the Currency, approximately $20,084,000.
Note D     Securities
      The amortized cost and fair value of securities at December 31, 2005, by contractual maturity, are shown below. Expected maturities will differ from contractual maturities because borrowers may have the right to call or repay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

During 2004, proceeds from sales of securities were $136,698,000 with gross gains of $454,000 and gross losses of $410,000. During 2003, proceeds from sales of securities were $141,771,000 with gross gains of $1,223,000 and gross losses of $401,000.
      Securities with a carrying value of $215,828,000 and a fair value of $215,886,000 at December 31, 2005, were pledged as collateral for repurchase agreements, United States Treasury deposits, other public deposits and trust deposits. On November 1, 2004, in anticipation of a predicted rising interest rate environment and a potential decline in fair value of securities, the Company transferred $110.5 million in

      The company also holds stocks of the Federal Reserve Bank (FRB), Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta (FHLB), and Independent Banker’s Bank of Florida (IBB) in order to maintain required ownership and/or do business with these institutions. These stocks were previously classified in the “other securities” category of the Held for Sale portfolio. The balance of these stocks as of December 31, 2005 was $8.2 million and as of December 31, 2004 was $5.7 million.
      All of the Company’s securities which had unrealized losses at December 31, 2005 were obligations of the U.S. Treasury, U.S. Government agencies or AAA rated mortgage related securities. Management expects that all principal will be repaid at a par value at the date of maturity. The fair values of the Company’s securities are based on discounted cash flow models which utilize assumed lives and yields which will vary over economic cycles producing both unrealized losses and gains. The Company has the intent and ability to hold these temporarily impaired securities until fair value is recovered.

      The unrealized losses in the U.S. Treasury and U.S. Government agencies and mortgage-backed securities were caused by interest rate increases. Because the decline in fair value is attributable to changes in interest rates and not credit quality, these investments are not considered other-than-temporarily impaired.

Note I     Borrowings
      All of the Company’s short-term borrowings were comprised of federal funds purchased and securities sold under agreements to repurchase with maturities primarily from overnight to seven days:
                         
    2005   2004   2003

      On July 31, 1998, the Company acquired $15,000,000 in other borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB), principal payable on November 12, 2009 with interest payable quarterly at a fixed rate of 6.10%. On January 30, 2003, the Company acquired $25,000,000 from the FHLB, principal payable on January 30, 2006 with interest payable quarterly; the borrowing is a floating rate agreement that resets quarterly based on the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR).
      The FHLB borrowings are secured by mortgage backed investment securities having a fair value totaling $20,737,000.
      The Company’s subsidiary banks have unused lines of credit of $176,125,000 at December 31, 2005. The Company has an unsecured revolving line of credit totaling $15,000,000 of which $6,000,000 is outstanding at December 31, 2005. The line is a floating rate agreement that resets quarterly based on LIBOR plus 130 basis points and contains certain financial covenants that must be maintained by the Company. At December 31, 2005 the Company was in compliance with all the terms of the agreement.
      The Company issued $20,619,000 in junior subordinated debentures on March 31 and December 16, 2005, an aggregate of $41,238,000. These debentures were issued in conjunction with the formation of a Delaware and Connecticut trust subsidiary, SBCF Capital Trust I and II (“Trusts”) which each completed a private sale of $20.0 million of floating rate preferred securities. The rates on the trust preferred securities are the 3-month LIBOR rate plus 175 basis points and 3-month LIBOR rate plus 133 basis points, respectively. The rates, which adjust every three months, are currently 6.28 percent and 5.86 percent, respectively, per annum. The trust preferred securities mature in thirty years, and may be redeemed without penalty on or after June 30, 2010 and March 15, 2011, respectively, upon approval of the Federal Reserve Board or upon occurrence of certain events affecting their tax or regulatory capital treatment. Distributions on the trust preferred securities are payable quarterly in March, June, September and December of each year. The Trusts also each issued $619,000 of common equity securities to the Company. The proceeds of the offering of trust preferred securities and common equity securities were used to purchase the $41.2 million junior subordinated deferrable interest notes issued by the Company, which have terms substantially similar to the trust preferred securities.

SEACOAST BANKING CORPORATION OF FLORIDA AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
      The Company has the right to defer payments of interest on the notes at any time or from time to time for a period of up to twenty consecutive quarterly interest payment periods. Under the terms of the notes, in the event that under certain circumstances there is an event of default under the notes or the Company has elected to defer interest on the notes, the Company may not, with certain exceptions, declare or pay any dividends or distributions on its capital stock or purchase or acquire any of its capital stock. The Company is current on the interest payment obligations and has not executed the right to defer interest payments on the notes.
      The Company has entered into agreements to guarantee the payments of distributions on the trust preferred securities and payments of redemption of the trust preferred securities. Under these agreements, the Company also agrees, on a subordinated basis, to pay expenses and liabilities of the Trusts other than those arising under the trust preferred securities. The obligations of the Company under the junior subordinated notes, the trust agreement establishing the Trusts, the guarantees and agreements as to expenses and liabilities, in aggregate, constitute a full and conditional guarantee by the Company of the Trusts’ obligations under the trust preferred securities.
      Despite the fact that the accounts of the Trusts are not included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements, the $40.0 million in trust preferred securities issued by the Trusts are included in the Tier 1 capital of the Company as allowed by Federal Reserve Board guidelines.
      The proceeds from the sale of the trust preferred securities and borrowed funds were used to support the purchase of Century, to maintain capital, and for general corporate purposes.
Note J     Employee Benefits
      The Company’s profit sharing plan which covers substantially all employees after one year of service includes a matching benefit feature for employees electing to defer the elective portion of their profit sharing compensation. In addition, amounts of compensation contributed by employees are matched on a percentage basis under the plan. The profit sharing contributions charged to operations were $2,196,000 in 2005, $1,690,000 in 2004, and $1,259,000 in 2003.
      The Company’s stock option and stock appreciation rights plans were approved by the Company’s shareholders on April 25, 1991, April 25, 1996, and April 20, 2000. The number of shares of common stock that may be granted pursuant to the 1991 and 1996 plans shall not exceed 990,000 shares for each plan and pursuant to the 2000 plan shall not exceed 1,320,000 shares. The Company has granted options on 826,000 shares, 933,000 and 348,000 shares for the 1991, 1996 and 2000 plans, respectively, through December 31, 2005. Under the 2000 plan the Company granted options on 56,000 shares and issued 28,000 shares of restricted stock awards during 2005 and granted options on 99,000 shares and issued 52,000 shares of restricted stock awards during 2004. Under the plans, the option exercise price equals the common stock’s market price on the date of grant. All options issued prior to December 31, 2002 have a vesting period of four years and a contractual life of ten years. All options issued after that have a vesting period of five years and a contractual life of ten years. Stock option fair value is measured on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with market assumptions. Option pricing models require the use of highly subjective assumptions, including expected stock price volatility, which when changed can materially affect fair value estimates. Accordingly, the model does not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of the Company’s stock options.
      The more significant assumptions used in estimating the fair value of stock options include risk-free interest rates ranging from 3.90 percent to 4.50 percent in 2005, 4.22 percent in 2004 and 4.25 percent in 2003; dividend yields of 2.36 percent in 2005, 2.52 percent in 2004 and 2.92 percent in 2003; weighted average expected lives of the stock options of 7 years in 2005 and 5 years in 2004 and 2003; and volatility of the Company’s common stock of 18 percent in 2005 and 13 percent in 2004 and 2003. Additionally, the

72

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
estimated fair value of stock options is reduced by an estimate of forfeiture experience which was 13 percent in 2005, 2004 and 2003.
      On approximately one-half of the restricted stock awards the restriction expiration is dependent upon the Company achieving minimum earnings per share growth during a five-year vesting period. The following table presents a summary of stock option activity for 2003, 2004 and 2005:

      The Century acquisition increased the deferred income tax assets by $876,000 and deferred income tax liabilities by $931,000 in 2005. The realization of deferred income tax assets may be based on the utilization of carrybacks to prior taxable periods, the anticipation of future taxable income in certain periods and the utilization of tax planning strategies. The Company has determined it is more likely than not that the deferred income tax assets can be supported by carrybacks to federal taxable income in the two-year federal carryback period and by expected future taxable income that will exceed amounts necessary to fully realize remaining deferred income tax assets resulting from the scheduling of temporary differences. The Company’s taxable income for the last two years exceeded $58 million, an amount in excess of the net deferred tax assets.
      Income tax expense related to securities transactions was $49,000, $17,000 and $(452,000) in 2005, 2004 and 2003 respectively. The IRS examined the federal income tax return for the year 2003. The IRS did not propose any material adjustments related to this examination.

      The Company repurchases its common shares in an ongoing effort to manage its capital position and to fund shares used for the Company’s stock option and stock purchase plans.
      The Company is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary, actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Company’s assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Company’s capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.

SEACOAST BANKING CORPORATION OF FLORIDA AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
      Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of total and Tier 1 capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined) and of Tier 1 capital to average assets (as defined). Management believes, as of December 31, 2005, that the Company meets all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject.
      The Company is well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized, the Company must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth above. At December 31, 2005, the Company’s deposit-taking bank subsidiaries met the capital and leverage ratio requirements for well capitalized banks. The Company does not anticipate or foresee any conditions that would reduce these ratios to levels at or below minimum or that would cause its deposit-taking bank subsidiaries to be less than well capitalized.

Note P     Contingent Liabilities and Commitments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk
      The Company and its subsidiaries, because of the nature of their business, are at all times subject to numerous legal actions, threatened or filed. Management presently believes that none of the legal proceedings to which it is a party are likely to have a materially adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, or operating results or cash flows, although no assurance can be given with respect to the ultimate outcome of any such claim or litigation.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
      The Company’s subsidiary banks are a party to financial instruments with off balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit.
      The subsidiary banks’ exposure to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contract or notional amount of those instruments. The subsidiary banks use the same credit policies in making commitments and standby letters of credit as is done for on balance sheet instruments.
      Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The subsidiary banks evaluate each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the banks upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, equipment, and commercial and residential real estate. Of the $398,183,000 in commitments to extend credit outstanding at December 31, 2005, $105,975,000 is secured by 1-4 family residential properties with approximately $34,000,000 at fixed interest rates ranging from 5.50% to 7.00%.
      Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the subsidiary banks to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. These instruments have fixed termination dates and most end without being drawn; therefore, they do not represent a significant liquidation risk. Those guarantees are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements, including commercial paper, bond financing, and similar transactions. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. The subsidiary banks hold collateral supporting these commitments for which collateral is deemed necessary. The extent of collateral held for secured standby letters of credit at December 31, 2005 and 2004 amounted to $9,146,000 and $16,241,000 respectively.

Note R     Fair Value of Financial Instruments
      The Company is required to disclose the estimated fair value of its financial instruments. These disclosures do not attempt to estimate or represent the Company’s fair value as a whole. The disclosure excludes assets and liabilities that are not financial instruments as well as the significant unrecognized value associated with core deposits.
      Fair value amounts disclosed represent point-in-time estimates that may change in subsequent reporting periods due to market conditions or other factors. Estimated fair value amounts in theory represent the amounts at which financial instruments could be exchanged or settled in a current

transaction between willing parties. In practice, however, this may not be the case due to inherent limitations in the methodologies and assumptions used to estimate fair value. For example, quoted market prices may not be realized because the financial instrument may be traded in a market that lacks liquidity; or a fair value derived using a discounted cash flow approach may not be the amount realized because of the subjectivity involved in selecting the underlying assumptions, such as projecting cash flows or selecting a discount rate. The fair value amount also may not be realized because it ignores transaction costs and does not include potential tax effects. The Company does not plan to dispose of, either through sale or settlement, the majority of its financial instruments at these estimated fair values.

      The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument for which it is practicable to estimate that value at December 31:
      Cash and Cash Equivalents: The carrying amount was used as a reasonable estimate of fair value.
      Securities: The fair value of U.S. Treasury and U.S. Government agency, mutual fund and mortgage backed securities are based on market quotations when available or by using a discounted cash flow approach.
      The fair value of many state and municipal securities are not readily available through market sources, so fair value estimates are based on quoted market price or prices of similar instruments.
      Loans: Fair values are estimated for portfolios of loans with similar financial characteristics. Loans are segregated by type such as commercial, mortgage, etc. Each loan category is further segmented into fixed and adjustable rate interest terms and by performing and nonperforming categories.
      The fair value of loans, except residential mortgages, is calculated by discounting scheduled cash flows through the estimated maturity using estimated market discount rates that reflect the credit and interest rate risk inherent in the loan. For residential mortgage loans, fair value is estimated by discounting contractual cash flows adjusting for prepayment assumptions using discount rates based on secondary market sources.
      Loans Available for Sale: Fair values are based upon estimated values to be received from independent third party purchasers.

      Deposit Liabilities: The fair value of demand deposits, savings accounts and money market deposits is the amount payable at the reporting date. The fair value of fixed maturity certificates of deposit is estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.
      Borrowings: The fair value of floating rate borrowings is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date. The fair value of fixed rate borrowings is estimated using the rates currently offered for borrowings of similar remaining maturities.
      Subordinated Debt: The fair value of the floating rate subordinated debt is the amount payable on demand at the reporting date.
      Derivative Product Assets and Liabilities: Quoted market prices or valuation models that incorporate current market data inputs are used to estimate the fair value of derivative product assets and liabilities.
Note S     Earnings Per Share
      Basic earnings per common share were computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per common share were determined by including assumptions of stock option conversions.
