(Life) of Norfolk, Va. in the first quarter and Franklin Bancorporation, Inc. (Franklin) of Washington, D.C. in the third quarter. Excluding nonrecurring charges, net income increased 19.7% and earnings per share increased 19.0% compared to 1997. BB&T's 1998 results produced a return on average assets of 1.58% and a return on average equity of 20.16%, compared to prior year ratios of 1.48% and 18.58%, respectively. For the fourth quarter of 1998, BB&T's net income totaled $136.5 million, an increase of 18.8% compared to $114.9 million earned on a recurring basis in 1997. Diluted earnings per share were $.46 for the fourth quarter compared to $.39 in 1997, an increase of 17.9%. Including nonrecurring charges, net income for 1998 increased 39.2% to $501.8 million, or $1.71 per diluted share, compared to $360.4 million, or $1.23 per share, in 1997. For the fourth quarter, net income was $136.5 million, or $.46 per share, compared to $89.4 million, or $.31 per share, including nonrecurring charges recorded last year. BB&T's "cash basis" operating results, which exclude the effect of intangible assets and the related amortization expense, improved significantly for the three months and the year ended Dec. 31, 1998, compared to the same periods in 1997. Cash basis recurring earnings totaled $536.9 million, or $1.83 per diluted share, for the full year 1998, increases of 21.6% and 21.2%, respectively, over recurring prior year results. For the fourth quarter, cash basis earnings totaled $144.7 million, or $.49 per diluted share, increases of 21.9% and 19.5%, respectively, over comparable prior year amounts. Cash basis earnings for 1998 yielded a return on average tangible assets of 1.67% and a return on average tangible equity of 23.70%. "It is a pleasure to report record results for 1998," said Chairman and Chief Executive Officer John A. Allison. "1998 has been an outstanding year for BB&T. We have been fortunate to achieve all of our strategic objectives. MORE "Our on-going primary objective is to create the `world standard' revenue-driven sales organization. Through the effective execution of the BB&T Sales Management System, BB&T has produced the strongest growth rate in noninterest revenue among the country's 50 largest banks over the last five years. We achieved noninterest income growth of 28.5% during 1998. Second, we wanted to differentiate ourselves from our competitors by building upon our client service strategy. BB&T's recognition by the U.S. Small Business Administration as America's No. 1 "small business friendly" bank is one result of the effective implementation of this strategy. Third, we have pursued excellence in our fundamental financial performance. In 1998, we achieved essentially all of our financial objectives, placing BB&T in the top 10% of the nation's bank holding companies in terms of performance. "Among our other objectives, we wanted to develop more convenient delivery systems that serve our clients' needs. We increased our ATM network to 770 locations during 1998 and opened a 24-hour customer service call center. Additionally, we have improved access to BB&T Insurance Services, the largest independent insurance agency network in the Carolinas and the 16th largest in the country, by expanding its telephone-based access. Our fifth strategic objective was to effectively integrate those acquisitions we made during 1997 and to pursue additional strategic acquisitions. We believe we were very successful in this endeavor." BB&T expanded and enhanced its franchise in 1998 through a number of significant mergers and acquisitions. In addition to the mergers of Life and Franklin, BB&T announced the acquisitions of Maryland Federal Bancorp, Inc., of Hyattsville, Md. and MainStreet Financial Corporation, of Martinsville, Va. BB&T also reached agreements to acquire Scott & Stringfellow Financial Inc., an investment banking firm headquartered in Richmond, Va., W.E. Stanley & Company Inc., of Greensboro, N.C., an actuarial and employee benefits consulting firm, and Dealers Credit Inc., of Menomonee Falls, Wis., a national finance company. BB&T continued to expand its network of insurance agencies through the acquisitions of W.C. Brown Insurance Services Inc., of Rocky Mount, Va., and McPhail, Bray, Murphy & Allen Inc., of Charlotte, N.C., completed in 1998. On Jan. 4, 1999, BB&T acquired Blue Ridge Burke Insurance Agency Inc. of Mount Airy and Winston-Salem, N.C. Stockholders have benefited from the financial success of BB&T through a 25.9% increase in the common stock price during 1998. Combined with a 12.9% increase in the quarterly dividend, the total return to investors in 1998 was 28.5%. Also, BB&T declared a 2-for-1 stock split effective Aug. 3, 1998. The compound annual total return to shareholders for the 4 years since the shareholders' vote on the merger of equals between BB&T and Southern National has exceeded 48%. BB&T had $34.4 billion in assets and 534 banking offices in the Carolinas, Virginia, Maryland and Washington, D.C., as of Dec. 31, 1998. BB&T's common stock is traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the trading symbol BBT. The closing price of BB&T's common stock on Jan. 12 was $38.38 per share.
