PrivateBancorp Reports Earnings Per Share of $0.47

Year-to-date earnings per share increase 25 percent from the first six months of 2005

Chicago, IL, July 17, 2006--- PrivateBancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ: PVTB) today reported earnings of $0.47 per diluted share for the second quarter 2006 compared to second quarter 2005 earnings per diluted share of $0.34, an increase of 38 percent. Net income for second quarter 2006 was $10.0 million compared to second quarter 2005 net income of $7.2 million. Second quarter 2005 earnings were $0.34, which includes $0.04 per share of options expense that is recognized as a result of the modified retrospective application of SFAS 123 R, Share-Based Payment. Second quarter 2006 earnings per share include $0.02 of option expense. Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2006 was $19.0 million, or $0.88 per diluted share, compared to net income of $14.8 million, or $0.70 per diluted share for the six months ended June 30, 2005, reflecting a 25 percent increase in diluted earnings per share between periods. Reported results include the financial results of The PrivateBank - Michigan from its acquisition date of June 20, 2005.

Second quarter 2006 earnings per share include the impact of a $1.4 million gain on the sale of Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago (“FHLB (Chicago)”) advances, $228,000 of costs associated with the withdrawal of our membership from the FHLB (Chicago) on May 2, 2006, securities losses of $1.0 million, and a gain on an interest rate swap of $413,000. The combined effect of these items increased diluted earnings per share by $0.019 for the second quarter.

“PrivateBancorp experienced another solid quarter of growth and profitability and continued to take steps to facilitate future growth. Our Oak Brook and Geneva, Illinois offices moved to larger facilities, while our planned third-quarter headquarters relocation remains on course. From a financial perspective, our team of experienced managing directors and associates continued to drive loan and deposit growth, as well as fee income growth, resulting in improved earnings performance across the markets we serve. Credit quality remains high, with non-performing loans at roughly one-tenth of one percent of total loans. In addition, we are pleased that during the quarter we were able to complete the withdrawal of our membership from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago and the full redemption of our FHLB Chicago stock,” said Ralph B. Mandell, Chairman, President and CEO.

“We continue to seek additional opportunities to grow our wealth management business as well as our unique approach to private banking in select markets in middle-America and the Sun Belt, which, coupled with ongoing investments in human capital, are key factors positively impacting our future growth,” Mandell said.

Second quarter 2006 net interest income totaled $29.9 million, up 37 percent over second quarter 2005 net interest income of $21.8 million, primarily due to growth in earning assets compared to the year earlier period. Net interest margin (on a tax equivalent basis) was 3.55 percent in the second quarter 2006, up slightly from 3.53 percent in the prior year second quarter and up 10 basis points from 3.45 percent in the first quarter 2006. Yields on average earning assets increased by 39 basis points from first quarter 2006, driven by increases in the prime rate, which exceeded an increase in the cost of total average interest bearing liabilities of 33 basis points during the quarter.

As previously disclosed, the Company completed the withdrawal of its membership from the FHLB (Chicago) on May 2, 2006. As a result, the Company received $138.5 million in full payment of the redemption of the shares of FHLB (Chicago) stock it owned, and retired or sold all of its outstanding advances with and obligations to the FHLB (Chicago). As a result of the redemption of our FHLB (Chicago) stock, as of June 30, 2006, investment securities were $499.8 million, down 27 percent from $682.4 million at March 31, 2006 and down 35 percent from $769.2 million at June 30, 2005.

The provision for loan losses was $2.4 million in the second quarter 2006, compared to $1.9 million in the prior year second quarter and $2.3 million in the first quarter 2006. The increase in the provision for loan losses reflects the impact of continued loan growth. Net charge-offs totaled $389,000 in the second quarter 2006 versus $310,000 in the prior year quarter and $144,000 in the first quarter 2006. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans was 1.13 percent as of June 30, 2006 and March 31, 2006 and down from 1.15 percent at June 30, 2005. At June 30, 2006, nonperforming loans as a percentage of total loans were 0.10 percent, down from 0.15 percent at March 31, 2006 and June 30, 2005.

Non-interest income increased to $6.6 million in the second quarter 2006, up 51 percent from $4.4 million in the second quarter 2005 and up $1.6 million from the first quarter 2006. Non-interest income for the second quarter 2006 reflects $1.4 million of gains related to the sale of $90.0 million of FHLB (Chicago) advances on May 2, 2006, as a result of the withdrawal of our membership from the FHLB (Chicago). The remaining growth in non-interest income during the quarter was primarily driven by growth in wealth management fee income, which increased to $3.6 million for the second quarter 2006, up from $2.4 million in the second quarter 2005 and $3.2 million in the first quarter 2006. Wealth management assets under management increased by 35 percent to $2.7 billion at June 30, 2006, compared to $2.0 billion at June 30, 2005, and essentially unchanged from $2.7 billion as of March 31, 2006.

A $413,000 gain from an interest rate swap combined with net securities losses of $1.0 million, resulted in a $587,000 net loss, for the second quarter 2006, compared to a net gain of $73,000 in the second quarter 2005 and a net loss of $23,000 in the first quarter 2006, which negatively affected non-interest income.

Non-interest expense increased to $18.9 million in the second quarter 2006 from $13.8 million in the prior year quarter and $17.6 million in first quarter 2006. The 37 percent increase in non-interest expense as compared to the second quarter 2005 is primarily attributable to the inclusion of a full quarter’s expenses of The PrivateBank - Michigan as compared to the prior year quarter and increases in costs resulting from the Company’s increased scale and scope of operations. The 8 percent increase in non-interest expense from the first quarter 2006 is attributable primarily to increased professional fees associated with our wealth management business. During the second quarter 2006, the Company incurred approximately $228,000 in legal and other costs associated with the withdrawal of our membership from the FHLB (Chicago).

The Company continues to add experienced managing directors to support continued growth. Full-time equivalent employees at quarter’s end increased to 409 from 362 at June 30, 2005 and from 393 at March 31, 2006. At June 30, 2006, the Company had 126 managing directors compared to 84 at June 30, 2005 and 116 at March 31, 2006. The increase in the number of managing directors for the quarter was a result of 5 promotions and 5 net new hires. The efficiency ratio was 50.3 percent in the second quarter 2006 compared to 50.7 percent in the prior year quarter and 51.7 percent in the first quarter 2006.

Total assets were $3.7 billion at June 30, 2006 compared to $3.2 billion at June 30, 2005, an increase of 13 percent, and $3.7 billion at March 31, 2006. Total assets decreased slightly from the prior quarter’s end due primarily to our withdrawal from the FHLB (Chicago) and the resulting deleveraging of the balance sheet. The Company continued to see strong growth in the loan portfolio. At June 30, 2006, total loans were $3.0 billion, versus $2.2 billion at June 30, 2005 and $2.8 billion at March 31, 2006.

Total deposits were $3.1 billion at June 30, 2006, up from $2.4 billion at June 30, 2005 and up from $2.9 billion at March 31, 2006. Core deposits, defined as total deposits less brokered deposits, increased 18 percent to $2.4 billion at June 30, 2006 compared to $2.0 billion at June 30, 2005, and increased 6 percent from $2.2 billion at March 31, 2006. Brokered deposits were $748.0 million at June 30, 2006, an increase of 94 percent from $385.7 million at June 30, 2005, and up 6 percent from $704.6 million at March 31, 2006. Funds borrowed, which include Federal Home Loan Bank advances, decreased 71 percent to $133.2 million at June 30, 2006 from $464.8 million at June 30, 2005, and decreased 62 percent from $351.5 million at March 31, 2006. The decrease is primarily attributable to the sale of advances and repayment of advances to the FHLB (Chicago) in conjunction with the Company’s withdrawal of membership.
