WSFS REPORTS 1st QUARTER 2012 RESULTS;

EPS IMPROVES 85% OVER 1st QUARTER 2011

WILMINGTON, Del., WSFS Financial Corporation (Nasdaq: WSFS), the parent company of WSFS Bank, reported net income of $7.2 million, or $0.74 per diluted common share, for the first quarter of 2012 compared to net income of $6.2 million, or $0.63 per diluted common share, for the fourth quarter of 2011, and net income of $4.2 million, or $0.40 per diluted common share, for the first quarter of 2011.

Highlights for the quarter:

·   Revenues increased 12% from first quarter 2011 levels due to business growth, while expenses remained relatively flat, resulting in significantly improved operating leverage, efficiency and bottom-line results.

·   Loan and customer funding balances continued growth trends.  Loans increased 5.5% from year-ago levels with commercial and industrial (C&I) loans up 15.4%.  Customer funding increased 8.6% with core deposits up 13.6% over the same time period.

·   Nonperforming assets improved for the 4th consecutive quarter to 2.07% of assets from 2.14% of assets last quarter, and 2.58% at this time last year; the dollar level of nonperforming assets decreased 2% to $89.6 million, from $91.7 million last quarter and 12% from $101.8 million from this time last year.  The provision for loan losses of $6.7 million decreased slightly from the prior quarter and more than covered quarterly net charge-offs of $5.5 million.  The dollar level of net charge-offs declined 22% from the fourth quarter of 2011 and 46% from the first quarter of 2011.

1

Notable items in the quarter:

·   WSFS realized $2.0 million, or $0.15 per diluted common share (after-tax), in net gains on securities sales, reflecting the continued management of our mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”) portfolio.  This compares to net securities gains of $1.9 million, or $0.14 per diluted common share, in the fourth quarter of 2011 and $415,000, or $0.03 per diluted common share, in the first quarter of 2011.

·   WSFS recorded non-routine expenses of $321,000, or $0.02 per diluted common share (after-tax), in the first quarter of 2012 relating to the federal government’s sale of its WSFS preferred shares to private investors.

CEO outlook and commentary:

“Significantly improved earnings during the first quarter of 2012 reflect the results of our focus on optimizing prior franchise investments and taking market share opportunities, and growing our profitability, while continuing to improve asset quality,” said Mark Turner, President and CEO.  “As a result, we expected and are pleased with our improved operating leverage and efficiency, and the increase in our bottom-line results.

 “We have been successful in our efforts to grow our core banking business.  Loans, especially C&I loans, which are the primary focus of our lending business, and customer funding, particularly core deposits, continue to show strong growth.  We have increased net interest income on both a linked quarter and year-over-year basis, despite pressure from the historically-low interest rate environment.

“We have also grown our fee income through the success in building our banking, wealth, and ATM businesses.  Noninterest income increased at a double digit rate from first quarter 2011 levels, even after adjusting for the increased securities gains taken in this quarter.

2

“We continue our efforts to reduce our level of nonperforming assets as we manage through a slowly recovering economy.  Overall credit costs decreased significantly from last quarter and year-ago levels and net charge-offs continued to decline.  The business environment in our markets is improving modestly and the environment for asset disposition also appears to be improving.  However, the economic recovery has been long, slow and uneven and from quarter to quarter, certain credit statistics can reflect this volatility.

“We have much more progress to make, but we could not achieve these gains without the dedication and engagement of our Associates, and the advocacy of our customers, which we value immensely.”

First Quarter 2012 Discussion of Financial Results

Net interest margin and net interest income reflect further growth

Net interest income for the first quarter was $32.5 million, and increased $114,000, or 1% annualized, from the fourth quarter of 2011.  The net interest margin for the first quarter of 2012 was 3.57%, a four basis point decrease from 3.61% reported for the fourth quarter of 2011.  Compared to the first quarter of 2011, the net interest margin increased one basis point and net interest income increased $2.3 million, or 8%.

The net interest margin declined in this quarter as MBS prepayments and sales, combined with low MBS reinvestment rates, continued to decrease the yield on these assets.  Furthermore, decreases in funding costs, particularly in core deposits, did not keep pace as the historically-low interest rate environment has continued.

Customer funding growth reflects strength in core deposits

Customer funding increased at a strong rate during the first quarter of 2012. Total customer funding was $2.9 billion at March 31, 2012, an increase of $40.1 million, or 1% (6% annualized), over levels reported at December 31, 2011. As previously disclosed, year-end 2011 balances included one large temporary trust account of $55.0 million. Adjusted for this account, customer funding increased a more robust $95.1 million, or 3% (13% annualized). Some segments of our funding (trust, municipal and school district accounts) by their nature are expected to show volatility from time-to-time.

3

Moreover, core deposit accounts grew $45.9 million, or 2% (9% annualized), and $100.9 million, or 5% (20% annualized) adjusted for the temporary account, due to growth of $43.8 million in demand accounts and $31.9 million in savings accounts.

Customer funding increased $231.0 million, or 9%, over balances at March 31, 2011.  This was driven by higher core deposit account balances, which increased $255.1 million, or 14%, partially offset by a modest decrease in higher-cost customer time and sweep accounts.

The following table summarizes current customer funding balances and composition compared to prior periods.

Continued increases in the loan portfolio from commercial loan growth

Total net loans were $2.7 billion at March 31, 2012, an increase of $20.8 million, or 3% annualized, compared to the prior quarter-end, mainly due to an increase in C&I loans, which grew $25.6 million and construction loans, which grew $18.3 million from December 31, 2011.  This growth occurred despite typically slower seasonal loan growth during the first quarter and was partially offset by a decrease of $16.8 million in residential mortgage and consumer loans, generally reflecting a continuing purposeful change in the mix of our loan portfolios.

Net loans increased $141.5 million, or 5%, compared to March 31, 2011.  This increase included growth of $198.8 million, or 15%, in C&I loans, partially offset by reductions of $30.3 million in residential mortgage loans and $18.9 million in consumer loans.

Asset quality statistics reflect asset disposition efforts

The ratio of nonperforming assets to total assets improved for the 4th consecutive quarter to 2.07% at March 31, 2012, from 2.14% at December 31, 2011 and 2.58% at March 31, 2011, and nonperforming assets improved 2% to $89.6 million at March 31, 2012, from $91.7 million at December 31, 2011 and $101.8 million at March 31, 2011. This overall improvement in nonperforming assets was mainly the result of the Company’s continued active distressed-asset disposition efforts as assets acquired through foreclosure decreased by $5.0 million to $6.7 million at March 31, 2012.

Total loan delinquency increased to 3.03% as of March 31, 2012 compared to 2.48% as of December 31, 2011. The increase in delinquency was in the early stage delinquency category, and was due to one delinquent C&I loan at March 31, 2012, to an operating business which is subject to seasonality.

Total loan delinquency	$	84,163	3.03	%	$	68,262	2.48	%	$	74,947	2.83	%

The Bank’s ratio of classified assets to total Tier 1 capital plus the allowance for loan losses (“ALL”) was 59.4%, an increase from 52.2% at December 31, 2011 and a decrease from its high point of 70.5% at the end of the first quarter of 2010.  The increase in the first quarter of 2012 was mainly due to two large C&I loans which were downgraded from criticized to classified status.  Total problem loans (all criticized, classified and nonperforming loans) improved during the quarter by $9.5 million.

During the first quarter of 2012, net charge-offs improved to $5.5 million, or 0.80% (annualized) of average gross loans, a 22% decrease from $7.1 million, or 1.04% (annualized), reported in the fourth quarter of 2011 and a 46% decrease from $10.2 million, or 1.56% (annualized) in the same quarter of 2011.

The total provision for loan losses decreased slightly to $6.7 million in the first quarter of 2012 from $6.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2011, and increased from $5.9 million in the first quarter of 2011.Furthermore, total credit costs (provision for loan losses, loan workout expenses, OREO expenses and other credit reserves) were at their lowest amount in the last thirteen quarters (since the 3rd quarter of 2008), and decreased meaningfully to $7.6 million from $9.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2011, and also decreased from $8.4 million in the first quarter of last year.  Total credit costs in the quarter were positively impacted by lower workout and OREO costs, which is noteworthy in a quarter where the Company substantially reduced its assets acquired through foreclosure.

6

The allowance for loan losses increased during the first quarter of 2012 to $54.2 million, as the first quarter provision more than covered net charge-offs and the ratio of the allowance for loan losses to total gross loans increased to 1.95% at March 31, 2012 from 1.92% at December 31, 2011.

Noninterest income increases reflect growth across all business lines

During the first quarter of 2012, the Company earned noninterest income of $16.8 million, compared to $17.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2011.  Net securities gains were comparable for both periods.  The slight decrease in fee income was largely the result of seasonal declines in deposit service charges, fiduciary & investment management income and credit/debit card and ATM income.

Noninterest income increased $3.1 million during the first quarter of 2012 from $13.6 million reported during the same period a year ago.  Excluding the impact of net securities gains in both periods, noninterest income increased by $1.5 million, or 11%.  Credit/debit card and ATM fees increased by $682,000, or 14%, and deposit service charges increased by $450,000, or 13%, over the prior year, reflecting franchise growth.  In addition, fiduciary & investment management income increased $204,000, or 7%, over the prior year, and represents continued growth in this business.

Noninterest expenses hold flat with prior periods

Noninterest expense for the first quarter of 2012 totaled $31.4 million compared to $33.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2011, or a decrease of $1.6 million.  Excluding notable items recorded in both quarters, noninterest expenses decreased $1.5 million, or 5%.  During the quarter, loan workout and OREO expenses decreased by $2.1 million.  Asset disposition costs can be uneven from quarter-to-quarter based on disposition activities and results.  Partially offsetting this decrease were salaries, benefits and other compensation costs, which increased $1.4 million from the fourth quarter of 2011, and primarily reflects seasonal increases in taxes and other payroll-related costs associated with first quarter incentive payments as well as higher variable incentives related to improved performance.

7

Noninterest expense for the first quarter of 2012 was essentially flat with the same period of 2011. Included in this comparison was a $1.6 million decrease in loan workout and OREO costs which was mostly offset by expenses associated with increased organic franchise growth during 2011, including the opening and renovation of several branches, the hiring of additional commercial relationship managers and related infrastructure costs as the Company reached the later stages of its recent heavy investment phase by the end of 2011.

Niche business (included in above results)

The Cash Connect® division is a premier provider of ATM vault cash and related services in the United States.  It services nearly $448 million in vault cash in more than 12,000 non-bank ATMs nationwide and also operates over 400 ATMs for WSFS Bank, which has the largest branded ATM network in Delaware.  Cash Connect® recorded $3.9 million in net revenue (fee income less funding costs) during the first quarter of 2012. This represented a slight seasonal decrease of $86,000 compared to the fourth quarter of 2011 and an increase of $618,000 compared to the first quarter of 2011.  Noninterest expenses were $2.5 million during both the first quarter of 2012 and the fourth quarter of 2011, and increased $318,000from the first quarter of 2011.  As a result, Cash Connect® reported pre-tax income of $1.4 million for the first quarter of 2012, compared to $1.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2011, and $1.1 million in the first quarter of 2011.

Income taxes

The Company recorded a $4.0 million income tax provision in the first quarter of 2012 compared to $3.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2011 and $2.4 million in the first quarter of 2011.  The Company’s effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2012 was 36%; the effective tax rate during the fourth quarter of 2011 was 35%; and the effective tax rate during the first quarter of 2011 was 36%.

8

Capital management

The Company’s capital increased by $5.1 million to $397.3 million at March 31, 2012, mainly the result of earnings from the first quarter of 2012.

Tangible common book value per share was $35.70 at March 31, 2012, a $0.50 increase from $35.20 reported at December 31, 2011.  The Company’s tangible common equity to asset ratio increased to 7.24% at the end of the first quarter.

At March 31, 2012, the Bank’s Tier 1 leverage ratio of 9.35%, Tier 1 risk-based ratio of 12.24% and total risk-based capital ratio of 13.49% all increased during the period and maintained a substantial cushion in excess of “well-capitalized” regulatory benchmarks.  An additional $12.0 million in cash remains at the holding company as of March 31, 2012 to support the parent company’s cash needs.

The Board of Directors approved a quarterly cash dividend of $0.12 per common share.  This dividend will be paid on May 25, 2012, to shareholders of record as of May 11, 2012.

First quarter 2012 earnings release conference call

Management will conduct a conference call to review first quarter results at 1:00 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time (EDT) on Friday, April 27, 2012.  Interested parties may listen to this call by dialing 1-877-312-5857.  A rebroadcast of the conference call will be available two hours after the completion of the conference call, until May 4, 2012, by calling 1-800-585-8367 and using Conference ID 72910261.
