THE SEACOAST VIEW: COMMUNITY BANKING 2014+

Three transformational forces are driving disruption across the community banking landscape, fundamentally reshaping the industry:

Digital technologies are being used by bank and non-bank financial services providers to better meet customer needs, giving the customer more choices about where to send their business;

Data and improved analytics are moving bank and non-bank financial services providers closer to the customer, building trust and bringing in more business; and

Distribution channels are rapidly aligning with broader changes in consumer behavior, making branch-only based systems unsustainable.

Consumers and businesses alike are quickly discovering new ways to more conveniently access their money and manage their financial lives, placing demands on historical big bank and community bank business models. New competitors are reshaping the landscape.

Community banks must invest in digital delivery of current product sets and develop new ones just to maintain “table stakes” in the game going forward; and reduce fixed high-cost structures associated with traditional branch based systems as they implement variable low-cost distribution platforms that meet current and future customer needs.

LOGO

 

THE SEACOAST VIEW: COMMUNITY BANKING 2014+(CONTINUED…)

Seacoast is uniquely positioning its business model to address these transformational challenges to build greater value for shareholders and sustainable performance over the long term:

We are observing digital technology customer adoption rates that suggest the transformational impact on community banks will be far more rapid than widely believed;

Nearly 40% of our online customers have switched to our mobile products;

Mobile users have increased over 300% since our initial deployment in 2011 and grew at an annual rate of over 92% in the most recent quarter;

The average mobile user interacts with us 50 times per month

We have been using our position as the largest consumer and small business bank in our core footprint to test and explore new growth tactics;

10.4% CAGR for core customer funding since 2010;

Fee revenues have increased 15.9% when compared with the first nine months of 2012;

Over half of our household base now uses our digital servicing capabilities

We are building an integrated distribution system to improve revenue growth and reduce our fixed costs;

More than 20% of our branches have been closed;

We have added 24 new products to our digital product suite;

We have rolled out an innovative small business platform to three Florida metro markets

LOGO

 

THE SEACOAST VIEW: COMMUNITY BANKING 2014+(CONTINUED…)

Opportunities for growth are significant. Traditional community bank business models are being challenged which will drive faster consolidation:

Smaller banks have done little to integrate digital technology;

Most are still executing branch based business models; and

Most leadership teams have a traditional banking mindset

Seacoast will continue to refine the tactics that underpin our successful customer growth strategy to achieve better revenue improvements;

We are advancing the integration of our digital, ATM and branch based delivery platforms to achieve better revenue growth with lower fixed costs; and

We believe executing the right acquisitions are a low-cost path to meaningful customer acquisition and faster distribution integration which will drive greater cost efficiencies and scale.

ASSET QUALITY OVERVIEW

Seacoast’s ongoing asset quality improvement initiatives have resulted in a much stronger and cleaner bank

Troubled assets have decreased approximately $121.2 million since 12/31/2009, or 67.0%

Accruing restructured loans reduced by $18.7 million, or 42.3%, when compared to the third quarter of 2012

Provision Expense has decreased from $124.8 million for fiscal year 2009 to $1.5 million YTD 9/30/2013

NCOs for the nine months ending 9/30/13 were $2.8 million compared to $12.1 million in the same period of 2012

The risk profile of the loan portfolio has been reduced by implementing a program to reduce the level of credit risk in the portfolio by strengthening credit management methodologies and implementing a low risk “back-to-basics” strategic plan for loan growth

As a result of strategic focus on credit and asset quality, Seacoast’s reserves-to-NPAs excluding restructured loans has increased to 60.6% as of 9/30/13, it’s highest level in the past 4 years

FLORIDA M&A LANDSCAPE – PRICING OBSERVATIONS

In pre-recession times from 2004 to mid-2007, publicly traded Florida banks typically traded at higher pricing multiples than nationwide peers, because of both the strong demographic growth of Florida compared to the rest of the country, as well as the high M&A pricing Florida banks obtained upon sales compared to the rest of the country. Florida pricing, from both a trading multiple standpoint and an M&A multiple standpoint is starting to rebound

Massive Consolidation on the Horizon

Florida has only 12 banks with TX Ratios greater than 200% — a few more failures to come

Most failures are now considered “zombie” banks — best employees and customers have left

Buyers have turned their attention to open-bank deals — lots of discussions and action taking place

Pricing has been increasing rapidly over the last year (with recent deals topping 150% of book value)

Motivated sellers have begun to “pull the trigger” as M&A pricing is showing signs of life

Motivated buyers remain fairly patient but we are starting to see a willingness to stretch on price

Florida’s historic serial buyers are all gone with limited replacements in place (especially public ones) – Opening the door for new Florida acquirers, such as Seacoast now that it is in good regulatory standing

Very few banks with over $1 billion in assets, which is the size that larger regionals and nationwide banks want to focus on

Peak M&A pricing will largely be dictated by the buyers’ trading values

Buyer currencies have started to move up (towards 2x tangible book value)

A few premium priced deals were recently done and there is a feel the next M&A wave is coming

Many small sellers under $500 million in assets could flood the market and many buyers could make an early exit themselves

Expect significant consolidation in Florida over the next 5 years — 100 banks could disappear

After the last major recession in the early 1990s, 180 Florida banks sold in 6 years (~3 per month)

FLORIDA M&A LANDSCAPE – SEACOAST BUYER ADVANTAGE

Over the past decade, the number of Florida acquirers has declined substantially – 15 of the 20 most active buyers are gone

Most of Florida’s sellers are seeking liquid publicly-traded currency – want to ride the upside of a bigger better Florida franchise

Platform-bank buyers are finding it difficult to overcome this dynamic – forcing them to focus on distressed banks with fewer options

There are only a few Florida-based publicly-traded buyers in Seacoast’s markets that could potentially take advantage of this

Seacoast is perfectly positioned, given its historic franchise and markets served, to become the buyer of choice for many sellers
