EX-99.1 2 ex99_1.txt EXHIBIT 99.1 EXHIBIT 99.1 (BW) (INTERVEST-BANCSHARES) (IBCA) INTERVEST BANCSHARES CORPORATION -------------------------------- REPORTS 2006 SECOND QUARTER EARNINGS OF $6.4 MILLION ---------------------------------------------------- Business Editors - New York - (Business Wire - July 18, 2006) Intervest Bancshares Corporation (NASDAQ: IBCA) (the "Company") today reported that its consolidated net earnings for the second quarter of 2006 increased by $1.9 million, or 42%, to $6.4 million, or $0.77 per diluted share, from $4.5 million, or $0.67 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2005. For the first half of 2006, consolidated net earnings increased by $5.0 million, or 64%, to $12.8 million or $1.54 per diluted share, from $7.8 million or $1.15 per diluted share reported in the first half of 2005. The earnings per share calculations for the 2006 periods included a greater number of outstanding shares resulting primarily from a public offering of 1.4 million shares of Class A common stock in the third quarter of 2005. The Company's efficiency ratio, which is a measure of its ability to control expenses as a percentage of its revenues, improved to 19% in the second quarter of 2006, from 25% in the second quarter of 2005. The Company was recognized as the most efficient bank holding company in 2005 among the 500 largest bank holding companies in the nation according to an article that appeared in the June 22, 2006 issue of American Banker. The Company's return on average assets and equity was 1.42% and 17.66%, respectively, in the 2006 second quarter, compared to 1.26% and 19.01% in the 2005 second quarter, and its book value per common share rose to $19.04 at June 30, 2006, from $17.41 at December 31, 2005. The $1.9 million increase in 2006 second quarter earnings over the same period of 2005 reflected the continued growth in the Company's lending activities and an improved net interest margin. Net interest and dividend income, the Company's primary source of revenues, grew by 42% or $3.9 million, reflecting a $295 million increase in average loans outstanding and an increase in the net interest margin to 2.94% from 2.59%. The higher margin was due to the Company's yield on interest-earning assets increasing at a faster pace than its cost of funds as well as an increase of $56 million in its net interest-earning assets resulting largely from $26.3 million of proceeds from the issuance of common stock as noted above and increased retained earnings. The growth in net interest and dividend income was partially offset primarily by a $1.5 million increase in income tax expense due to higher pretax income and a $0.4 million decrease in noninterest income due to a lower level of income from loan prepayments. Noninterest expenses remained unchanged as additional payroll costs and other operating expenses associated with the Company's growth in staff and total assets were largely offset by a decrease in executive bonuses and a nonrecurring Nasdaq National Market entry fee paid in the 2005 period. The Company had 76 employees at June 30, 2006, compared to 68 at June 30, 2005, and its effective income tax rate was approximately 44% for both periods. The $5.0 million increase in 2006 first-half earnings over the same period of 2005 was due to an $8.1 million increase in net interest and dividend income, a $0.8 million increase in noninterest income and a $0.5 million decrease in the provision for loan losses, partially offset by increases in income tax expense of $4.0 million and noninterest expenses of $0.4 million. The increases in net interest and dividend income and income tax expense were due to the same factors noted above. Noninterest income increased primarily due to a higher level of income from loan prepayments, while the provision for loan losses was lower due to a decrease in the rate of net loan growth over the prior year period. Noninterest expenses were higher primarily due to increases in payroll costs and other operating expenses associated with the Company's growth in staff and total assets, partially offset by a decrease in executive bonuses and a nonrecurring Nasdaq National Market entry fee paid in the 2005 period. Total consolidated assets at June 30, 2006 increased by 5% to $1.79 billion from $1.71 billion at December 31, 2005. The increase reflected the growth in the Company's loan portfolio and a higher level of security investments, partially offset by a decrease in other short-term investments. Total consolidated loans, net of unearned fees, at June 30, 2006 increased by 5% to $1.44 billion from $1.37 billion at December 31, 2005. The increase was due to new mortgage loan originations secured by commercial and multifamily real estate exceeding principal repayments. New loan originations totaled $147 million in the second quarter of 2006 and $290 million in the first half of 2006, compared to $173 million and $325 million, respectively, for the same periods of 2005. Total consolidated security investments at June 30, 2006 increased 19% to $306.6 million from $256.7 million at December 31, 2005. The investment portfolio at June 30, 2006, all of which was held by Intervest National Bank, had a weighted-average remaining maturity of 1.3 years and a yield of 4.12%, compared to 1.1 years and a yield of 3.26% at December 31, 2005. Intervest National Bank invests in short-term U.S. government agency debt obligations to emphasize liquidity and currently targets its loan-to-deposit ratio at approximately 85%. Total consolidated cash and other short-term investments at June 30, 2006 decreased by 66% to $19.5 million from $56.7 million at December 31, 2005. The decrease reflected the investment of funds into loans and securities. Total consolidated deposits at June 30, 2006 increased by 5% to $1.45 billion from $1.38 billion at December 31, 2005, reflecting an increase in certificate of deposit accounts of $72.2 million and a net increase in checking, savings and money market accounts totaling $3.4 million. Total consolidated borrowed funds and related interest payable at June 30, 2006 decreased by 4% to $149.5 million from $155.7 million at December 31, 2005. The decrease was primarily due to $4.8 million of principal repayments of debentures and a $1.2 million decrease in accrued debenture interest payable. Total consolidated stockholders' equity at June 30, 2006 increased by 10% to $149.4 million from $136.2 million at December 31, 2005. The increase reflected net earnings of $12.8 million and $0.4 million from the conversion of convertible debentures into common stock. Intervest Bancshares Corporation is a financial holding company.

(1) Represents net earnings plus interest expense on dilutive convertible debentures, net of taxes, that would not occur if the convertible debentures were assumed to be converted for purposes of computing diluted earnings per share.

Assumed conversion results in additional common shares (based on average balances outstanding) of approximately 205,000 in the 2006 EPS computations and 344,000 in the 2005 EPS computations. (3) Returns for the quarterly and six-month periods have been annualized.
