SEACOAST REPORTS FIRST QUARTER NET INCOME OF $5.9 MILLION, UP 51%, AND EARNINGS PER SHARE OF $0.34, UP 36% OVER FIRST QUARTER 2005.

STUART, FL., April 25, 2006 – Seacoast Banking Corporation of Florida (NASDAQ-NMS: SBCF), a bank holding company whose principal subsidiary is First National Bank and Trust Company of the Treasure Coast, today reported net income totaling $5,866,000 or $0.34 diluted earnings per share (“DEPS”) for the first quarter of 2006, compared to $3,886,000 or $0.25 DEPS for the first quarter a year ago. Cash operating earnings* totaled $5,943,000 or $0.34 DEPS for the first quarter of 2006, up $1,715,000 or 40.6 percent over first quarter 2005. A total of $335,000 or $0.02 DEPS in interest rate swap losses (noncash) were recorded in first quarter 2005 earnings.

“We begin the year 2006 with strong performance and a continuation of many of the trends that became apparent in the outstanding results produced last year. Our focused expansion into high growth markets, continued growth in loans and our low cost deposit funding have strongly positioned us for continued growth in the year ahead,” commented Dennis S. Hudson, III, Chief Executive Officer of Seacoast.

“Our entry into the Orlando market one year ago has proven to be particularly successful. Each month following our closing last April has produced revenue improvements as well as stable management of overhead. Loan and deposit growth over the past year was 11% and 21%, respectively. Our team in Orlando is to be congratulated for producing outstanding results.”

“This month we are pleased to announce the completion of our acquisition of Big Lake Financial Corporation (“Big Lake”), which added $206 million in loans and $298 million in deposits. Big Lake extends our footprint west into contiguous markets we feel will benefit in the future from the inevitable growth that is beginning to spill over from Florida’s coastal areas. On a pro forma basis, this 100% stock transaction brings total assets at the end of the quarter to over $2.5 billion and our market capitalization to over $500 million for the first time. Our combination with Big Lake complements our long history of low cost deposit funding, with over 30% of its deposits in noninterest bearing accounts. We expect the transaction to be slightly accretive to earnings immediately and more accretive in the future as we work to build on their success in the lake region and rationalize our combined overhead.”

Highlights for the quarter included the following:

•

Total loans increased 36.9 percent over the last twelve months and 15.2 percent annualized on a linked quarter basis;

•

Net interest margin increased 12 basis points to 4.16 percent from the fourth quarter of 2005, and was higher than the first quarter 2005’s results of 3.90 percent;

•

Net interest income was up $5.0 million or 32.7 percent when compared to the first quarter last year;

•

Total deposits increased 22.2 percent over the last twelve months and 4.5 percent annualized on a linked quarter basis;

•

The Fed raised interest rates 200 basis points over the last twelve months; however, the cost for interest bearing deposits increased only 83 basis points to 2.27 percent, and the cost of all deposits was up 62 basis points to 1.71 percent:

•

Noninterest bearing deposits grew by $74 million or 20.3 percent compared to a year earlier and comprise 24.4 percent of total deposits, nearly the same as the 24.8 percent of total deposits in first quarter 2005;

•

The return on average tangible equity, using cash operating earnings, for the first quarter was 19.25 percent compared to 15.72 percent for the first quarter of 2005;

•

Asset quality remained strong with a nonperforming assets ratio of 0.02 percent compared to 0.03 percent at year-end and 0.11 percent in the first quarter 2005; and

•

Seacoast Marine originated loans totaling $47 million for the period ended March 31, 2006, compared to $42 million in the same period for 2005.

The net interest margin for the quarter was 4.16 percent, an increase over the 3.90 percent achieved in last year’s first quarter. The increase in the net interest margin is consistent with expectations and resulted from the repricing of interest sensitive assets, a change in earning asset mix attributable to loan growth, and limited increases in deposit rates and other interest sensitive liabilities.

Net interest income (tax equivalent) increased to a record $20.3 million, a $5.0 million increase or 32.7 percent from last year’s first quarter, and was up 4.2 percent annualized from the fourth quarter 2005 with the growth in average earning assets for the first quarter 2006 at only an annualized rate of approximately 1 percent. The main cause for the slower growth was that organic deposit growth was offset by a seasonal outflow of funds, particularly related to public funds.

Loan and deposit growth is expected to continue to be aided by de novo branching into Palm Beach County and this year in Brevard County, as well as further success in the Orlando market. Since the acquisition of Century National Bank in April 2005, the Orlando market added $65 million in deposits and $12 million in loans.

The cost of interest bearing deposits increased to 2.27 percent from 1.44 percent in the first quarter 2005 and 2.05 percent in the fourth quarter 2005. Average interest bearing deposits balances outstanding for the first quarter 2006 were flat with the fourth quarter of 2005 and were up $246 million or 22.7 percent over the past year. Likewise, average noninterest bearing demand deposits were nearly the same for the first quarter of 2006 compared to the fourth quarter 2005, but were up $83 million or 23.6 percent compared to the prior year.

Average loans outstanding increased 39.7 percent compared to first quarter 2005, and the Company’s loan to deposit ratio increased to 74 percent at March 31, 2006 from 66 percent at first quarter-end 2005. The Company’s expansion into Palm Beach and Brevard counties over the past two years has allowed for greater loan opportunities. Over the past twelve months 41.8 percent of total loan growth has been produced in these markets. The addition of two full service branches in 2006 and 2007 in Brevard County and the opening of the Palm Beach County headquarters in May 2006 will further enhance the prospects for future loan and deposit growth from these markets.

Noninterest income increased 13.7 percent annualized when compared to the prior year’s fourth quarter, reflecting increased revenues from debit card interchange fees, merchant income, and investment management services. During the fourth quarter 2005 and first quarter 2006, noninterest income related to mortgage loan production declined on lower volumes and more production being retained in the loan portfolio. Total outstanding residential loan balances have increased 17.3% percent over the past two quarters. The Company expects that fee income from mortgage banking activities will continue to be challenged in year-over-year comparisons due to a slowing housing market. Commissions and fees from investment management services increased 13.0 percent compared to first quarter 2005 and were up 20.8 percent on a linked quarter basis from the fourth quarter 2005. Over the long term, we expect fees from wealth management services to grow at a rate of approximately 10 percent per year.

The annual growth in core deposits over the last twelve months has increased service charges on deposits and fees from the usage of check cards by increasing both the retail and commercial customer base. During the first quarter 2006, revenues earned on deposit accounts totaled $1,802,000 compared to $1,630,000 for the same period in 2005.

Noninterest expenses totaled $16.1 million, an increase of 9.4 percent annualized from the prior year's fourth quarter and a 21.0 percent increase compared to the first quarter 2005. The Company’s overhead efficiency ratio for the first quarter 2006 was 63.0 percent compared to last year’s ratio of 65.5 percent, as investments in additional branches and personnel in the Palm Beach and Brevard County markets has begun to produce additional revenues as well as the improved profitability in the Orlando market.

The Company has maintained strong and consistent credit quality and low net charge-offs. Net loan recoveries of $80,000 were recorded for the first quarter of 2006, compared to net charge-offs of $187,000 for 2005. Loan delinquencies, nonaccruals and the percentage of loans past due 90 days to average loans declined to 0.02 percent at March 31, 2006, compared to 0.06 percent for the fourth quarter 2005. Nonperforming assets totaled $240,000, a decline from $1,040,000 for the same quarter a year ago. During the quarter, the Company provided $280,000 for loan losses compared to $438,000 in 2005.

Seacoast will host a conference call tomorrow, April 26th at 10:00 AM (Eastern Time) to discuss the earnings results and business trends. Investors may call in (toll-free) by dialing (800) 640-9765 (access code: 14297091; leader: Dennis Hudson). Charts will be used during the conference call and may be accessed at Seacoast’s website at www.seacoastbanking.net under “Presentations”. A replay of the call will be available beginning the afternoon of April 26 by dialing (877) 213-9653 (domestic), using the passcode 14297091.

Seacoast Banking Corporation of Florida has approximately $2.5 billion in assets. It is one of the largest independent commercial banking organizations in Florida, with offices from Orlando to Palm Beach, including some of the wealthiest and fastest growing areas of the nation.

The Company believes that cash operating earnings excluding the aftertax impacts of noncash interest rate swap fair value changes and noncash amortization expense, is a better measurement of the Company’s trend in earnings growth. Net cash payments and receipts from the interest rate swap have not been material for the periods presented.
