CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Alabama National BanCorporation:

We have completed integrated audits of Alabama National BanCorporation’s consolidated financial statements and of its internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2006, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Our opinions, based on our audits, are presented below.

Consolidated financial statements

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated statements of financial condition and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Alabama National BanCorporation and its subsidiaries at December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2006 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit of financial statements includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Internal control over financial reporting

Also, in our opinion, management’s assessment, included in “Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting” which appears under Item 9A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K (not included herein), that the Company maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2006 based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO), is fairly stated, in all material respects, based on those criteria. Furthermore, in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2006, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the COSO. The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. Our responsibility is to express opinions on management’s assessment and on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We conducted our audit of internal control over financial reporting in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.

An audit of internal control over financial reporting includes obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, evaluating management’s assessment, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control, and performing such other procedures as we consider necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinions.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

As described in Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting (not included herein), management has excluded The Peachtree Bank from its assessment of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2006 because it was acquired by the Company in a purchase business combination on October 1, 2006. We have also excluded The Peachtree Bank from our audit of internal control over financial reporting. The Peachtree Bank represented approximately 7.5%, 8.5% and 9.4% of Alabama National’s consolidated total assets, loans and leases (net of unearned income), and deposits, respectively, as of December 31, 2006, and approximately 3.8% of Alabama National’s consolidated net income for the year ended December 31, 2006.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004


 

1. Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Alabama National BanCorporation and Subsidiaries (the Company) provides a full range of banking and bank-related services to individual and corporate customers through its twelve subsidiary banks located in Alabama, Georgia, and Florida.

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and with general financial services industry practices. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

In preparing the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the statement of condition dates and revenues and expenses for the periods shown. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant changes in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan and lease losses, valuation of goodwill, other intangible assets and related impairment analyses, benefit plan obligations and expenses and income tax assets and liabilities.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and due from banks.

Securities

Investment securities are stated at amortized cost as a result of management’s ability and intent to hold the securities until maturity. Premiums and discounts are amortized/accreted using the effective interest method.

Securities available for sale are those securities intended to be held for an indefinite period of time. The Company may sell these securities as part of its asset/liability strategy in response to changes in interest rates, changes in prepayment risk, or similar factors. Securities available for sale are recorded at fair value. Unrealized holding gains and losses on securities classified as available for sale are carried as a separate component of stockholders’ equity, net of taxes.

Trading securities are securities held for sale and are stated at fair value. Bond purchases and sales are recorded on the trade date. Accounts receivable from and accounts payable to bond customers represent security transactions entered into for which the securities have not been delivered as of the statement of financial condition dates. Unrealized holding gains and losses on securities classified as trading are reported in earnings during the period in which they occur.

Gains and losses on the sale of securities are computed using the specific identification method.

Loans and Leases

Interest income with respect to loans is recognized when earned. Loans are reported at their outstanding principal balances net of any unearned income, charge-offs, and unamortized deferred fees and costs. Loan origination fees and costs are deferred and recognized as adjustments to income over the life of the related loans. Unearned income is amortized to income using the interest method.

The Company provides equipment financing to its customers through a variety of lease arrangements. Leases are carried at the aggregate of lease payments to be received plus estimated residual value of the leased property, less unearned income.

A loan is impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Impaired loans are measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, or as a practical expedient, at the loan’s observable market price or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral-dependent. When the fair value of the impaired loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan, the impairment is recorded through a specific reserve allocation which is a component of the allowance for loan and lease losses.

Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses

The allowance for loan and lease losses is established through a provision for loan and lease losses charged to expense. Loans and leases are charged against the allowance for loan and lease losses when management believes the collection of principal is unlikely. The allowance is management’s estimate of probable inherent losses on existing loans and leases, based on evaluations of the collectibility of loans and prior loan loss experience. The evaluations take into consideration such factors as changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, overall portfolio quality, review of specific loans and leases, and current economic conditions which may affect the borrower’s ability to pay. Accrual of interest is discontinued on a loan when management believes, after considering economic and business conditions and collection efforts, that the borrower’s financial condition is such that the collection of interest is doubtful. When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, all interest which is accrued on the loan is reversed and deducted from earnings as a reduction of reported interest. Payments received on such loans are applied first to principal until the recoverability of the obligation is assured. Any remaining payments are then allocated as additional reductions of principal and interest income.

Property, Equipment, and Leasehold Improvements

Property, equipment, and leasehold improvements are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is principally computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of each type of asset. Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful lives of the improvements or the terms of the related leases. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred; improvements and betterments are capitalized. When items are retired or otherwise disposed of, the related costs and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gains or losses are credited or charged to income.

Other Real Estate

Other real estate, which primarily consists of property acquired by foreclosure, is initially recorded at the fair value less estimated selling costs. Other real estate is not depreciated. Subsequent to foreclosure, the assets are carried at the lower of carrying value or fair value less estimated cost to sell. Losses, representing the difference between the sales price and the carrying value of the property, are recorded on the date of the sale, while gains on sales financed by the Company are deferred until the initial and continuing investment by the borrower equals or exceeds specified levels. Gains on all other sales are recorded when realized. Other real estate at December 31, 2006 and 2005 totaled $790,000 and $623,000, respectively.

Other Intangible Assets

Other intangible assets relate to core deposits and customer lists. Other intangibles are amortized over a period based on the expected life of the intangible, generally five to ten years, using either the straight-line or accelerated methods of amortization.

Goodwill

Pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, the Company does not amortize goodwill. The Company tests goodwill for impairment at least annually. There has been no impairment resulting from impairment tests.

Software Costs

Software costs, which primarily represent costs to acquire third party software packages, have a recorded cost of approximately $7,491,000 and $6,293,000 and related accumulated amortization of approximately $6,057,000 and $4,805,000, and are included in other assets at December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Amortization expense related to capitalized software costs totaled approximately $671,000, $582,000 and $564,000 during 2006, 2005, and 2004, respectively.

Income Taxes

There are two components of income tax expense: current and deferred. Current income tax expense reflects cash to be paid for taxes for the applicable period. Deferred income taxes are recognized due to temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the income tax basis of assets and liabilities. Recognition of deferred tax assets is based on management’s belief that it is more likely than not that the tax benefit associated with certain temporary differences, tax operating loss carryforwards and tax credits will be realized. A valuation allowance is recorded for the amount of the deferred tax items for which it is more likely than not that realization will not occur.

Stock-Based Employee Compensation

As required by SFAS No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment, the Company uses a fair value-based method of accounting for compensation costs. Compensation cost for stock-based employee compensation arrangements is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award and is recognized over the related service period. The Company had fully adopted and implemented the expense recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, and has recorded compensation costs in accordance with these provisions for all periods presented herein. For additional information on share based payments see Note 13.

Advertising Costs

The Company expenses the costs of advertising when those costs are incurred.

Collateral Requirements

The Company requires collateral for certain transactions with retail and commercial customers. Specifically, margin loans made for the purpose of borrowing against marketable investment securities generally do not exceed 50% of the total market value of a customer’s marginable securities portfolio at the time of the transaction and no more than 70% at anytime thereafter. Repurchase agreements, limited to commercial customers and correspondent banks, generally do not exceed the market value of securities used to secure such transactions at the time of the transaction or thereafter. Federal funds sold are made to correspondent banks on an unsecured basis and generally do not exceed limits established for each bank resulting from evaluation of the bank’s financial position.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year financial statements to conform with the 2006 presentation.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) released FASB Statement No. 158, Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Post Retirement Plans, an

 

11


Alabama National BanCorporation and Subsidiaries

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004


 

amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132(R) (“FAS 158”). FAS 158 requires companies to recognize a net liability or asset to report the funded status of their defined benefit pension and other post retirement benefit plans on their balance sheets starting with balance sheets as of December 31, 2006. The Company adopted the statement effective December 31, 2006. See Note 12 for more information regarding the Company’s adoption of FAS 158.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. Among other requirements, SFAS No. 157 defines fair value and establishes a framework for measuring fair value and also expands disclosure about the use of fair value to measure assets and liabilities. SFAS No. 157 is effective beginning the first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

In September 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108 (“SAB 108”) which provides guidance on quantifying financial statement misstatements. SAB 108 requires financial statement misstatements to be quantified in relation to both its impact on the current year income statement (the “rollover” approach) and the current year balance sheet (the “iron curtain” approach). If a misstatement is material under either approach (the “dual approach”) the financial statements must be adjusted for the misstatement.

In September 2006, the Emerging Issues Task Force issued EITF Issue No. 06-04, Accounting for Deferred Compensation and Postretirement Benefit Aspects of Endorsement Split-Dollar Life Insurance Arrangements (EITF 06-04). EITF 06-04 establishes that for certain split-dollar life insurance arrangements, an employer should recognize a liability for future benefits in accordance with currently existing accounting pronouncements based on the substantive agreement with the employee. EITF 06-04 will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of EITF 06-04 and has not yet determined the impact EITF 06-04 will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

In September 2006, the Emerging Issues Task Force issued EITF Issue No. 06-05, Accounting for Purchases of Life Insurance-Determining the Amount That Could Be Realized in Accordance with FASB Technical Bulletin No 85-4 (“EITF 06-05”). EITF 06-05 clarifies the accounting for bank-owned life insurance (“BOLI”) and stipulates that policyholders should consider any additional amounts included in the contractual terms of the insurance policies other than cash surrender value in determining the amount that could be realized under the insurance contract in accordance with FASB Technical Bulletin No. 85-4. EITF 06-05 also establishes that policyholders should determine the amount that could be realized under the life insurance contracts assuming the surrender of an individual-life by individual-life policy. EITF 06-05 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2006. The Company has evaluated the impact of the adoption of EITF 06-05 and determined that the adoption of EITF 06-05 will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In July 2006, the FASB released FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting and reporting for uncertainties in income tax law. This Interpretation prescribes a comprehensive model for the financial statement recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in income tax returns. The Company will adopt this Interpretation in the first quarter of 2007. The cumulative effects, if any, of applying this Interpretation will be recorded as an adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. The Company has commenced the process of evaluating the expected effect of FIN 48 on its consolidated financial statements and has preliminarily determined that adoption will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In March 2006, the FASB issued FASB Statement No.156, Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets—an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140 (“FAS 156”). FAS 156 clarifies when to separately account for servicing rights, requires separately recognized servicing rights to be initially measured at fair value, and provides the option to subsequently account for those servicing rights (by class) at either fair value or under the amortization method previously required under FASB Statement No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishment of Liabilities. For the Company this Statement is effective for calendar year 2007. The adoption of this standard will not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

In February 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 155, Accounting for Certain Hybrid Instruments (SFAS 155). This Statement amends SFAS 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, and SFAS 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities, and resolves issues addressed in SFAS 133 Implementation Issue D1, Application of Statement 133 to Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets.

SFAS 155 permits, but does not require, fair value accounting for any hybrid financial instrument that contains and embedded derivative that would otherwise require bifurcation in accordance with SFAS 133, and amends SFAS 140 to eliminate the problem on a qualifying special-purpose entity from holding a derivative financial instrument that pertains to a beneficial interest other than another derivative financial instrument. In addition, SFAS 155 establishes a requirement to evaluate interests in securitized financial assets to identify interests that are freestanding derivatives or that are hybrid financial instruments that contain and embedded derivative requiring bifurcation. This statement also clarifies which interest-only strips and principal-only strips are not subject to the requirements of SFAS 133 and makes clear that concentrations of credit risk in the form of subordination are not embedded derivatives.

SFAS 155 is effective for all financial instruments acquired or issued after the beginning of an entity’s fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006. The fair value election provided for in this guidance may also be applied upon adoption of this Statement for hybrid financial instruments that had been bifurcated under SFAS 133 prior to adoption of this guidance. The changes required by SFAS 155 are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

In January 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 133 Implementation Issue B40, Application of Paragraph 13(b) to Securitized Interests in Prepayable Financial Assets, which provides a narrow scope exception from the SFAS 155 requirement to evaluate interests in securitized financial assets for embedded derivatives that would require bifurcation. The bifurcation tests outlined in paragraph 13(b) of SFAS 133 will not be required for securitized interests containing only an embedded derivative that is tied to the prepayment risk of the underlying prepayable financial assets and that meet certain criteria. B40 is required to be applied upon adoption of SFAS 155.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, which permits companies to elect to measure certain eligible items at fair value. Subsequent unrealized gains and losses on those items will be reported in earnings. Upfront costs and fees related to those items will be reported in earnings as incurred and not deferred.

SFAS 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. If a company elects to apply the provisions of the Statement to eligible items existing at that date, the effect of the remeasurement to fair value will be reported as a cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. Retrospective application will not be permitted. The Company is currently assessing whether it will elect to use the fair value option for any of its eligible items.

On December 16, 2004, the FASB issued SFAS 123(R), Share-Based Payment, which is a revision of SFAS 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. SFAS 123(R) supersedes APB Opinion 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and amends SFAS 95, Statement of Cash Flows. Generally the approach in SFAS 123(R) is similar to the approach described in SFAS 123. However, SFAS 123(R) requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on fair values. The Company adopted SFAS 123(R) on January 1, 2006. The Company previously used a fair value-based method of accounting for compensation costs and had fully adopted and implemented the expense recognition provisions of SFAS 123. Accordingly, the changes required by SFAS 123(R) did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations. See Note 13 for more information regarding the Company’s adoption of SFAS 123(R) and the required disclosures.

The acquisitions of Peachtree, Florida Choice, Coquina, Indian River and Cypress resulted in the recognition of $103,167,000, $75,433,000, $22,899,000, $79,990,000 and $19,332,000 of intangible assets, respectively. The Company allocated $3,111,000, $9,284,000, $1,006,000, $7,542,000 and $1,644,000 of the total intangible to core deposits, respectively. This allocation was based on the Company’s valuation of the core deposits of the acquired banks. The principal factors considered by the Company when valuing the core deposit intangibles consist of the following: (1) the rate and maturity structure of the interest bearing liabilities, (2) estimated retention rates for each deposit liability category, (3) the current interest rate environment and (4) estimated noninterest income potential of the acquired relationship. The core deposit intangible created is being amortized on an accelerated basis not to exceed seven years. The remaining intangible created was allocated to goodwill.

The following table presents unaudited pro forma results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004. The 2004 results have been adjusted as if the Peachtree, Florida Choice, Coquina, Indian River and Cypress acquisitions had occurred on January 1, 2004. The 2006 and 2005 results have been adjusted as if the Peachtree and Florida Choice acquisitions had occurred on January 1 of each year. There is no adjustment needed for Coquina, Indian River and Cypress for 2006 and 2005 since these acquisitions occurred during 2004. Since no consideration is given to operational efficiencies and expanded products and services, the pro forma summary information does not necessarily reflect the results of operations as they would have been, if the acquisitions had occurred at the dates presented.

Alabama National issued 64,839 shares of common stock in exchange for the outstanding shares of the acquired company. The transaction resulted in the recognition of $3.5 million of goodwill and $1.0 million of other customer intangibles that are classified as other amortizing intangible assets.

(1) length of time and the extent to which fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and (3) the intent and ability of the Company to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.

As of December 31, 2006, 505 debt securities have been in a loss position for more than twelve months and 101 debt securities have been in a loss position for less than twelve months. The losses for all securities are considered to be a direct result of rising interest rates and the effect that rising rates has on the value of debt securities and not related to the credit worthiness of the issuers. Further, the Company has the current intent and ability to hold the securities to an expected recovery in market value. Therefore, the Company has not recognized any other-than-temporary impairments.

Net loans and leases

   $ 5,387,890     $ 4,091,280  
                

In the normal course of business, loans are made to directors, officers, and their affiliates. Such loans are made on substantially the same terms as to other customers of the banks. The aggregate of such loans was $108,849,000 and $81,204,000 at December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. During 2006 and 2005, new loans of $85,828,000 and $59,851,000 were funded and reductions totaled $58,183,000 and $43,899,000, respectively.

Loans on which the accrual of interest has been discontinued or reduced amounted to approximately $10,921,000 and $6,446,000 at December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. If these loans had been current throughout their terms, gross interest income for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 would have increased by approximately $518,000 and $453,000, respectively.

At December 31, 2006 and 2005, the recorded net investment in loans for which impairment has been recognized totaled $10,921,000 and $6,446,000, respectively. Management of the Company believes that

 

20

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004


 

the fair value of these impaired loans is equal to or greater than the amount recorded on the Company’s books. The Company did not recognize any material interest income on impaired loans during the portion of the year that they were impaired. The impaired loans at December 31, 2006 and 2005 were measured for impairment primarily using the fair value of the collateral. The average investment in these loans for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 amounted to $6,616,000 and $6,791,000, respectively.

All of the loans identified as being impaired have been specifically allocated a portion of the allowance for loan and lease losses. This specifically allocated portion of the allowance totaled $886,000 and $254,000 at December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

The Company grants real estate, commercial, and consumer loans to customers primarily in Alabama, Georgia, and Florida. Although the Company has a diversified loan portfolio, significant concentrations include loans collateralized by improved and undeveloped commercial and residential real estate.

11. Commitments and Contingencies

In the normal course of business, the Company makes commitments to meet the financing needs of its customers. These commitments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. These instruments include, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated statements of financial condition. The Company’s exposure to credit risk is the extent of nonperformance by the counter party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit and is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies and procedures in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for loans.

At December 31, 2006 and 2005, unused commitments under lines of credit aggregated approximately $1,740,355,000 and $1,275,894,000, of which approximately $68,148,000 and $43,293,000 pertained to related parties, respectively. The Company evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on an individual basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the borrower. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant, and equipment, residential real estate and income-producing commercial properties.

The Company had approximately $78,627,000 and $53,458,000 in irrevocable standby letters of credit outstanding at December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively, of which approximately $1,399,000 and $1,179,000 at December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively, pertained to related parties. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. The collateral varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant, and equipment, and residential real estate for those commitments for which collateral is deemed necessary.

The Company, in the normal course of business, is subject to various pending and threatened litigation. Based on review and consultation with legal counsel, management does not anticipate that the ultimate liability, if any, resulting from such litigation will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

The Company has received preliminary tax assessments for certain state taxes from a taxing authority for subsidiaries holding investments outside of the state. Based upon a review of the assessment and the

December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004


 

relevant tax laws and based on review and consultation with counsel, management does not anticipate that the ultimate liability, if any, resulting from such assessment will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

 

12. Employee Benefit Plans

The Company, through two of its subsidiary banks, sponsors two defined benefit pension plans. Each of these plans has been frozen with regard to future benefit accruals and participation by new employees. The Company adopted FAS 158 effective December 31, 2006. The adoption of this accounting standard required the Company to reflect the funded status of pension plans on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. The following table shows the impact of adopting FAS 158 on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition of the Company.

The accumulated benefit obligation for the combined defined benefit pension plans is $6,675,000 and $6,813,000 at December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

Assumptions

Primary assumptions used to actuarially determine benefit obligations and net pension expense are as follows:

 

     Benefit Obligation  
     2006     2005     2004  

Discount rate

   5.75 %   5.50 %   5.75 %

Salary rate increase

   N/A     N/A     N/A  
     Net Pension Income
(Expense)
 
     2006     2005     2004  

Discount rate

   5.50 %   5.75 %   6.00 %

Expected long-term return on plan assets

   7.00 %   7.00 %   7.00 %

Salary rate increase

   N/A     N/A     N/A  

The discount rate has been determined by matching the expected benefit payment stream against the Citigroup Pension Discount Curve, which produced a result comparable with using the Moody’s Aa-rated Corporate Bond rate as the benchmark.

The expected long-term return on plan assets assumption has been derived by applying the weighted-average target allocation to the expected return by asset category, shown in the table below. Overall, the expected return assumptions for each asset class utilized is generally based on expectation of future returns.

 

27


Alabama National BanCorporation and Subsidiaries

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004


 

Plan Assets

The consolidated pension plan weighted-average asset allocations at December 31, 2006 and 2005, by asset category are as follows:

 

     Plan Assets at
December 31,
    Target
Allocation
    Expected
Return By
Category
 
     2006     2005              

Asset Category

        

Equity securities

   78.7 %   72.8 %   51.3 %   9.0 %

Debt securities

   17.2 %   21.6 %   46.7 %   5.0 %

Cash equivalents

   4.1 %   5.6 %   2.0 %   2.0 %
                        

Total/weighted average expected return

   100 %   100 %   100 %   7.00 %
                        

The target asset allocation shown above represents the weighted-average target allocation of total plan assets. Each plan’s stated investment policy allows for a range of percentages within each asset class that generally is 10% above and below the target. At December 31, 2006 and 2005, the plans were out of policy due to an increase in value of the equity securities and a decline in market value of debt securities. The plan trustee monitors the asset allocation relative to the target and determines whether to rebalance the portfolio immediately or allow the asset allocation to remain different from the target. The stated investment goals are to generate a return in excess of 7.0% (the current long-term return assumption), to meet or exceed the rate of return of similarly balanced market indexes and to provide an appropriate amount of liquidity to meet distribution requirements of current and future retirees. The risk management practices employed by the plans’ investment policies include diversification criteria, requirements that fixed income investments be of investment quality, an annual assessment of investment managers, analysis of fund performance against benchmarks and substantiation that investment results are consistent with stated objectives, goals and guidelines. Finally, there are several categories of investments that are not eligible for investment without specific approval. These include: short sales, margin purchases, private placements, commodities, security loans, unregistered or restricted stock, warrants, real estate mortgages, real estate equity, options and futures.

Equity securities include Alabama National BanCorporation common stock in the amounts of $1.34 million (18.2% of total plan assets) and $1.26 million (18.2% of total plan assets) at December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

The Company does not anticipate making a contribution to its pension plans during 2007.

pre-tax basis and the Company matches 100% of participants’ contributions up to the first 6.0% of each participant’s salary. The Company’s matching contribution charged to operations related to this plan was approximately $3,369,000, $2,558,000 and $2,566,000 for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

The Company and several of its subsidiary banks own life insurance policies to provide for the payment of death benefits related to existing deferred compensation and supplemental income plans maintained for the benefit of the Company’s former chief executive officer who retired from the company in 1996 and certain presidents, employees and directors of the Company or its subsidiary banks. The total cash surrender value of such policies at December 31, 2006 and 2005 was $20,813,000 and $20,117,000, respectively. The total liability of the deferred compensation plans at December 31, 2006 and 2005 totaled $4,582,000 and $4,465,000, respectively. The Company recorded expense of $386,000, $353,000 and $304,000 for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005, and 2004, respectively, for these plans.

One of the Company’s subsidiary banks has a deferred compensation plan whereby non-employee directors may elect to have all or a portion of their compensation deferred in cash. Compensation eligible for deferral under the plan was $22,000, $22,000 and $21,000 in 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively. At December 31, 2006 and 2005, amounts payable under the plan totaled $218,000 and $196,000, respectively.

 

13. Share Based Compensation

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004) (SFAS No. 123R), Share Based Payment. Alabama National has used a fair value-based method of accounting for share based compensation costs under SFAS No. 123. Accordingly, the adoption of SFAS No.123R on January 1, 2006, did not have a significant impact on Alabama National’s financial condition or results of operations. The primary changes are related to disclosures and the treatment of estimated forfeitures of share based payments.

With the adoption of SFAS No. 123R, Alabama National recorded an increase in net earnings based on SFAS No. 123R’s requirement to apply an estimated forfeiture rate to unvested awards. Previously, Alabama National recorded forfeitures as incurred. As of January 1, 2006, the impact of adoption decreased salary expense $73,000.

The primary types of share based compensation consist of the performance shares issued pursuant to the Performance Share Plan (“the PSP”) and stock options issued pursuant to the 1999 Long Term Incentive Plan (“the LTI Plan”).

Stock Options

During 1999, Alabama National adopted the LTI Plan which provides for the award of incentive and non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and performance awards eligible to employees of the Company. The total number of shares reserved for distribution under the plan is 300,000 shares. On January 1, 2000, Alabama National granted 160,500 non-qualified stock options, which vested over a sixty month period. As of December 31, 2004, these options were fully vested. During 2006, 2005 and 2004, the Company did not grant any stock options. Total compensation expense recorded for the stock option plans was $0, $0 and $126,000 for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

Performance Shares

Alabama National sponsors the PSP to offer long-term incentives in addition to current compensation to certain employees of the Company. The PSP is governed by Alabama National’s Compensation Committee, which may prescribe different criteria for different participants in the PSP. Such criteria may be expressed in terms of (i) the growth in net income per share during the award period, (ii) return on average equity in comparison with other banks and bank holding companies during the award period, (iii) growth in stockholders’ equity per share or tangible stockholders’ equity per share, or (iv) other reasonable bases. The vesting period is generally four years. Under the PSP 800,000 shares of common stock have been reserved for issuance and at December 31, 2006, approximately 634,806 shares are available to be issued.

The fair value of grants under the PSP is based on the market value of the Company’s stock on the grant-date and the total number of shares expected to be issued. The following table presents a summary of the status of nonvested performance share grants and changes during the year ended December 31, 2006:

 

     Shares     Weighted
Average
Grant-Date
Fair Value

Nonvested shares at December 31, 2005

   144,836     $ 50.86

   37,470       64.76

Nonvested shares at December 31, 2006

   132,123     $ 58.22
            

The number of shares presented in the table above is based on the expected share payout using current performance measurements. The actual share payout may differ from the amount presented above. As of December 31, 2006, there was approximately $3.7 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested PSP awards. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.1 years. Compensation expense related to the PSP for years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004 was $956,000, $1,714,000 and $1,235,000, respectively. Tax benefits related to PSP compensation totaled $363,000, $651,000 and $469,000 for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

In accordance with the terms of the PSP, a base grant of 31,705, 33,050 and 41,300 shares (net of forfeitures) was made in each of the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively. The market value per share was $64.76, $64.74 and $52.31 at each grant date for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively. During the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005, and 2004, 23,855, 29,030 and 25,906 shares, respectively, were awarded to participants. At December 31, 2006, outstanding awards of expected and maximum payouts were 132,123 and 175,588 shares, respectively. During 2006 PSP shares with a fair market value of $1,616,000 were awarded to plan participants.

The Company continuously updates its estimate of the total number of shares that will be issued related to each PSP grant based on the Company’s actual performance compared to the performance metrics of the PSP. As a result of this evaluation, the Company reduced the expected shares to be awarded by 24,228 shares during the year ended December 31, 2006.

Alabama National recognized an excess windfall tax benefit of $2,481,000 and $362,000 related to the payment of stock-based compensation during years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

Alabama National received $518,000 and $805,000 during the years ended 2006 and 2005, respectively, for the exercise of stock options.

Other Share-based Awards

Additionally, the Company and three of its subsidiary banks maintain deferral of compensation plans for certain directors who are not employees of the Company or its subsidiary banks. Under the plans, non-employee directors may choose to have all or part of the cash and/or stock equivalents they would normally receive as director fee compensation deferred for future payment, at such time and in such manner that the directors specify at the time of the election, so long as any pay out period does not exceed ten years. The cash portion of the deferral of compensation account earns interest at a rate which approximates the Company’s short-term borrowing rate. As of December 31, 2006 and 2005, there were no deferred cash payments under directors deferral of compensation plans. Dividends earned on stock equivalent portions are credited to the deferral of compensation account in the form of additional stock equivalents. At December 31, 2006 and 2005, the amount deferred under the terms of these plans totaled $3,283,000 and $2,953,000, respectively. For the years ending December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004, approximately $411,000, $375,000 and $333,000, respectively, was expensed under these plans.

During 2000, the Company adopted a separate Performance Share Plan to provide long-term incentives to non-employee directors of a subsidiary bank (the 2000 Subsidiary PSP) and made a base grant of 20,000 shares, with a market value per share of $19.22 to vest over a sixty-four month period. The actual number of shares distributed during fiscal 2006 was 25,000 shares. Since the shares were fully vested as of December 31, 2005, no expense was recorded during 2006. Expense recorded for the 2000 Subsidiary PSP was $90,000 for each of the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004.

 

14. Income Taxes

The Company did not establish a valuation allowance related to the net deferred tax asset recorded at December 31, 2006 and 2005 due to taxes paid within the carryback period being sufficient to offset future deductions resulting from the reversal of these temporary differences.

The provision for income taxes from continuing operations differs from the amount which would be provided by applying the statutory federal income tax rate of 35% to pretax earnings from continuing operations as illustrated below for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004 (in thousands):

 

     2006     2005     2004

For federal income tax purposes, one of the Company’s subsidiaries has a net operating loss carryforward totaling $2,779,000 and $3,655,000 at December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively, which will expire beginning in 2018.

17. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value.

Cash, Due From Banks, Interest-Bearing Cash Balances, and Federal Funds Sold

Due to the short-term nature of these assets, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Investment, Available for Sale, and Trading Securities

Fair value is based on quoted market prices or dealer quotes.

Loans

The fair value of loans is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities.

Deposits

The amount payable on demand at the reporting date is a reasonable estimate of fair value due to the short-term nature of demand deposit, savings accounts, and certain money market deposit liabilities. The fair value of fixed-maturity certificates of deposit is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.

Federal Funds Purchased and Short-Term Borrowings

The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Long-Term Debt

The fair value of the Company’s fixed rate borrowings are estimated using discounted cash flows, based on the Company’s current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements. The carrying amount of the Company’s variable rate borrowings approximates their fair values.

The estimated fair values of financial instruments at December 31, 2006 and 2005 are as follows (in thousands):

19. Regulatory

The subsidiary banks are required by law to maintain reserves in cash or deposits with the Federal Reserve Bank or other banks. At December 31, 2006, the required reserves totaled $23,184,000.

At December 31, 2006 and 2005, securities with carrying values of $500,476,000 and $440,853,000, respectively, were pledged to secure U.S. government deposits and other public funds for purposes as required or permitted by law.

The Company has a policy of collecting amounts from its subsidiaries sufficient to cover expenses of the Company and to service Company debt. Such amounts have been received in the form of dividends declared by the subsidiaries. Payment of dividends is subject to the financial condition of the subsidiaries and the Company’s judgment as to the desirability of utilizing alternative sources of funds. The payment of

dividends by the subsidiary banks is also subject to various regulatory requirements. At December 31, 2006, $112,855,000 of the retained earnings of the subsidiary banks are available for payment of dividends to the Company under the various regulatory requirements, without special approval from the applicable regulators.

The Company is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory—and possibly additional discretionary—actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s financial condition and operations. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Company’s assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Company’s capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below) of total qualifying capital and Tier I capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined), and of Tier I capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined). Management believes, as of December 31, 2006, that the Company meets all capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject.

As of December 31, 2006, the most recent notification from the Federal Reserve Bank categorized the Company’s subsidiary banks as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, except for Peachtree Bank which is categorized as adequately capitalized at December 31, 2006. To be categorized as well capitalized the subsidiary banks must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier I risk-based, and Tier I leverage ratios as set forth in the table. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed an institution’s category, except for the Company has injected capital in Peachtree Bank during February 2007 to make Peachtree Bank well capitalized.

At December 31, 2006, the regulatory capital ratios of the Company’s subsidiary banks, except for Peachtree Bank, exceeded the minimum ratios required for well-capitalized banks as defined by federal banking regulators. To be categorized as well-capitalized, the Company’s subsidiary banks must maintain minimum Total Qualifying Capital, Tier I Capital and leverage ratios of at least 10%, 6% and 5%, respectively.

20. Segment Reporting

In addition to traditional commercial and consumer retail banking products, the Company offers residential mortgage lending services, commercial mortgage banking services, investment services and wealth management services to its customers. The wealth management division includes a full service broker-dealer operation and also manages the assets and provides custodial, investment management, and trust services for both institutional and individual customers located primarily in the Birmingham, Alabama market. The residential mortgage lending division makes home loans to individuals

throughout the markets served by the Company. The majority of the loans made are sold to corporate investors, who also service the loans. The commercial mortgage banking division acts as a broker to arrange permanent long-term financing for primarily real estate transactions. In addition to the broker fee earned, the division also services many of the loans and earns servicing fee revenue. The investment services division sells fixed income securities and provides trading services to both individual and corporate customers. These four divisions, along with the commercial and retail banking division, are considered the Company’s reportable segments for financial disclosure purposes.

The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies except that certain overhead expenses are not allocated among the segments. Additionally, the fixed assets utilized by the various divisions are not separately identified by management. Accordingly, the results of operations for the residential mortgage lending, commercial mortgage banking, investment services and wealth management are not indicative of the results which would be achieved if each of the segments were a separate company. Intersegment transactions are accounted for at fair market value.

The development and application of these methodologies is a dynamic process. In addition, unlike financial accounting, there is no authoritative literature for management accounting similar to generally accepted accounting principles. Consequently, reported results are not necessarily comparable with those presented by other financial institutions.

21. Related Party Transactions

In addition to the previously disclosed related party transactions (Notes 5, 8, 10 and 11), the Company received trust and money management fees from related parties of approximately $1,341,000 in 2006, $479,000 in 2005, and $457,000 in 2004.

 

22. Treasury Stock Repurchase Plan

The active stock repurchase plan for 2005 expired on December 31, 2005 and was not renewed by the Board of Directors during 2006. During the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized the repurchase of up to 300,000 shares of its common stock. The Company did not purchase any shares during the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004.

 

23. Discontinued Operations

During the first quarter of 2007, Alabama National entered into a letter agreement for the sale of its insurance agency subsidiary, ANB Insurance Services, Inc. to an unrelated third party. The board of directors and management of Alabama National concluded that the terms of the sale were fair and in the Company’s best interests and that the sale would enable the Company to redeploy capital and resources to other financial services offered by Alabama National. On April 11, 2007, Alabama National announced the signing of a definitive agreement for the sale of substantially all of the assets of ANB Insurance Services, Inc. to the unrelated third party. The sale transaction closed on May 1, 2007 and Alabama National recorded a pre-tax gain of $1.5 million related to the sale. Accordingly, the results of operations of the insurance services division for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004 have been reported separately as a discontinued operation. The assets and liabilities associated with ANB Insurance Services, Inc. have been segregated from continuing operations and presented as assets and liabilities to be disposed of in the consolidated statements of financial condition as of December 31, 2006 and 2005. Assets and liabilities of the discontinued operations as of December 31, 2006 and 2005 were as follows (in thousands):
