Central Standard Time on January 16, 2003. SIMMONS FIRST ANNOUNCES 43% INCREASE IN EARNINGS ------------------------------------------------ Pine Bluff, Arkansas - Simmons First National Corporation today announced record fourth quarter earnings of $5,663,000, or $0.79 diluted earnings per share for the fourth quarter of 2002. These earnings reflect a 43% increase in net income and diluted earnings per share over the fourth quarter 2001. Return on average assets and return on average stockholders' equity for the three-month period ended December 31, 2002, was 1.15% and 11.40%, compared to 0.77% and 8.55%, respectively, for the same period in 2001. "With fourth quarter earnings at a record level, we are obviously pleased with the results," said J. Thomas May, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. "The significant increase in earnings over the same quarter last year is primarily attributable to a significant improvement in the Company's net interest margin, improved asset quality and the elimination of the amortization of goodwill required by the Financial Accounting Standards Board." The earnings for the year ended December 31, 2002, were $22,078,000, or $3.07 diluted earnings per share. These earnings reflect a 33% increase over net income of $16,528,000 and diluted earnings per share of $2.31 for 2001. As of December 31, 2002, the allowance for loan losses as a percent of total loans was 1.75%. Non-performing loans decreased $2.7 million from the same period last year. Correspondingly, non-performing loans to total loans improved to 0.97% from 1.19% the previous year. In addition, the allowance for loan losses improved to 179% of non-performing loans compared to 137% last year. Total assets for the year ended December 31, 2002, were $2.0 billion. Stockholders' equity at the end of the fourth quarter of 2002 was $197.6 million, a $15.2 million, or 8.4%, increase from December 31, 2001. May also noted, "As we prepare to celebrate our 100th anniversary on March 23, 2003, I am reminded that the success we have achieved is the result of the commitment to the delivery of quality customer service, which has always been the cornerstone of our community banking philosophy."
