Note 1 — Basis of Presentation

The accounting and reporting policies of International Bancshares Corporation (“Corporation”) and Subsidiaries (the Corporation and Subsidiaries collectively referred to herein as the “Company”) conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and to general practices within the banking industry.  The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, International Bank of Commerce, Laredo (“IBC”), Commerce Bank, International Bank of Commerce, Zapata, International Bank of Commerce, Brownsville and the Corporation’s wholly-owned non-bank subsidiaries, IBC Subsidiary Corporation, IBC Life Insurance Company, IBC Trading Company, and IBC Capital Corporation, as well as the GulfStar Group in which the Company owns a controlling interest.  All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.  The consolidated financial statements are unaudited, but include all adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the periods presented.  All such adjustments were of a normal and recurring nature.  It is suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto in the Company’s latest Annual Report on Form 10K.  The consolidated statement of condition at December 31, 2004 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements.  Certain reclassifications have been made to make prior periods comparable.

The Company operates as one segment.  The operating information used by the Company’s chief executive officer for purposes of assessing performance and making operating decisions about the Company is the consolidated statements presented in this report.  The Company has four active operating subsidiaries, namely, the bank subsidiaries, otherwise known as International Bank of Commerce, Laredo, Commerce Bank, International Bank of Commerce, Zapata and International Bank of Commerce, Brownsville.  The Company applies the provisions of SFAS No. 131, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information,” in determining its reportable segments and related disclosures.  None of the Company’s other operating segments meets the 10% threshold for disclosure under SFAS No. 131.

                All per share data presented has been restated to reflect the stock splits effected through stock dividends, see Note 8.

Note 2 — Loans

A summary of net loans, by loan type at September 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004 is as follows:

Note 3 — Stock Options

In December 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 148 (“SFAS No. 148”), “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation — Transition and Disclosure, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 123.”  SFAS No. 148 amends Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (“SFAS No. 123”), “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation.  In addition, SFAS No. 148 amends the disclosure requirement of SFAS No. 123 to require prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements about the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation for those companies that have elected to continue to apply Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 (“APB 25”), “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees.”   In December 2004, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123R (“SFAS No. 123R”), “Share-Based Payment (Revised 2004).” SFAS 123R eliminates the ability to account for stock-based compensation using APB 25 and requires that such transactions be recognized as compensation expense in the consolidated statement of income based on their fair values on the date of the grant.  The Company will be required to adopt the provisions of SFAS No. 123R on January 1, 2006.

At September 30, 2005, the Company had one stock-based employee compensation plan under which options are outstanding and certain options granted outside the plan.  An additional stock-based employee compensation plan has been adopted by the Company, but no options have been granted under such plan.  The Company accounts for options under the recognition and measurement principles of APB 25, and related interpretations.  No stock-based employee cost is reflected in net income, as all options granted had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant.  The following table, as prescribed by SFAS No. 148, illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123 to stock based employee compensation.

Note 4 — Investment Securities

The Company classifies debt and equity securities into one of three categories:  held-to maturity, available-for-sale, or trading.  Such classifications are reassessed for appropriate classification at each reporting date.  Securities classified as “held-to-maturity” are carried at amortized cost for financial statement reporting, while securities classified as “available-for-sale” and “trading” are carried at their fair value.  Unrealized holding gains and losses are included in net income for those securities classified as “trading”, while unrealized holding gains and losses related to those securities classified as “available-for-sale” are excluded from net income and reported net of tax as other comprehensive (loss) income and accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income until realized.

Note 5 — Allowance for Possible Loan Losses

A summary of the transactions in the allowance for possible loan losses is as follows:

                Impaired loans are those loans where it is probable that all amounts due according to contractual terms of the loan agreement will not be collected.  The Company has identified these loans through its normal loan review procedures.    Impaired loans are measured based on (1) the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate; (2) the loan’s observable market price; or (3) the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent.  Substantially all of the Company’s impaired loans are measured at the fair value of the collateral. In limited cases the Company may use other methods to determine the level of impairment of a loan if such loan is not collateral dependent.

The following table details key information regarding the Company’s impaired loans:

10

The impaired loans included in the table above were primarily comprised of collateral dependent commercial loans, which have not been fully charged off. The average recorded investment in impaired loans was $30,469,000 and $34,226,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and for the year ended December 31, 2004, respectively. The interest recognized on impaired loans was not significant.

Management of the Company recognizes the risks associated with these impaired loans. However, management’s decision to place loans in this category does not necessarily mean that losses will occur.

The bank subsidiaries charge off that portion of any loan which management considers to represent a loss as well as that portion of any other loan which is classified as a “loss” by bank examiners. Commercial and industrial or real estate loans are generally considered by management to represent a loss, in whole or part, when an exposure beyond any collateral coverage is apparent and when no further collection of the loss portion is anticipated based on the borrower’s financial condition and general economic conditions in the borrower’s industry. Generally, unsecured consumer loans are charged-off when 90 days past due.

While management of the Company considers that it is generally able to identify borrowers with financial problems reasonably early and to monitor credit extended to such borrowers carefully, there is no precise method of predicting loan losses. The determination that a loan is likely to be un-collectible and that it should be wholly or partially charged-off as a loss is an exercise of judgment. Similarly, the determination of the adequacy of the allowance for possible loan losses can be made only on a subjective basis. It is the judgment of the Company’s management that the allowance for possible loan losses at September 30, 2005 was adequate to absorb probable losses from loans in the portfolio at that date.

Note 6 — Other Borrowed Funds

   Other borrowed funds include Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings, which are short or long term, variable or fixed borrowings issued by the Federal Home Loan Bank of Dallas at the market price offered at the time of funding.  These borrowings are secured by mortgage-backed investment securities and a portion of the Company’s loan portfolio.  At September 30, 2005, other borrowed funds totaled $1,925,076,000, an increase of 15.3% from $1,670,199,000 at December 31, 2004.  The increase in other borrowed funds can be attributed to the additional funding requirements of the combined Company.

Note 7 — Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debentures

The Company has formed eight statutory business trusts under the laws of the State of Delaware, for the purpose of issuing trust preferred securities.  As part of the Local Financial Corporation (“LFIN”) acquisition, the Company acquired three additional statutory business trusts previously formed by LFIN for the purpose of issuing trust preferred securities.  The eight statutory business trusts formed by the Company and the three business trusts acquired in the LFIN transaction (the “Trusts”) have each issued Capital and Common Securities and invested the proceeds thereof in an equivalent amount of junior subordinated debentures (the “Debentures”) issued by the Company or LFIN, as appropriate.  The Company has succeeded to the obligations of LFIN under the LFIN Debentures, which have an outstanding principal balance of $62,115,000.  The Debentures will mature on various dates; however the Debentures may be redeemed at specified prepayment prices, in whole or in part after the optional redemption dates specified in the respective indentures or in whole upon the occurrence of any one of certain legal, regulatory or tax events specified in respective indentures.  As of September 30, 2005, the principal amount of debentures outstanding totaled $236,164,000.

In March 2005, the Federal Reserve Board issued a final rule that would continue to allow the inclusion of trust preferred securities in Tier 1 capital, but with stricter quantitative limits.  Under the final rule, after a five-year transition period ending March 31, 2009, the aggregate amount of trust preferred securities and certain other capital elements would be limited to 25% of Tier 1 capital elements, net of goodwill, less any associated deferred tax liability.  The amount of trust preferred securities and certain other elements in excess of the limit could be included in Tier 2 capital, subject to restrictions.  Bank holding companies with significant international operations will be expected to limit trust preferred securities to 15% of Tier 1 capital elements, net of goodwill; however, they may include qualifying mandatory convertible preferred securities up to the 25% limit.  The Company believes that substantially all of the $236,164,000 will be included in Tier 1 capital after the five-year transition period ending March 31, 2009.

Note 9 — Commitments, Contingent Liabilities and Tax Matters

The Company is involved in various legal proceedings that are in various stages of litigation.  Some of these actions allege “lender liability” claims on a variety of theories and claim actual and punitive damages.  The Company has determined, based on discussions with its counsel that any material loss in such actions, individually or in the aggregate, is remote or the damages sought, even if fully recovered, would not be considered material to the consolidated financial position or results of operations of the Company.  However, many of these matters are in various stages of proceedings and further developments could cause management to revise its assessment of these matters.

The Company’s lead bank subsidiary has invested in partnerships, which have entered into several lease-financing transactions.  The lease-financing transactions in two of the partnerships have been examined by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”).  In both partnerships, the lead bank subsidiary was the owner of a ninety-nine percent (99%) limited partnership interest.  The IRS has issued separate Notice of Final Partnership Administrative Adjustments (“FPAA”) to the partnerships and on September 25, 2001, and January 10, 2003, the Company filed lawsuits contesting the adjustments asserted in the FPAAs.

Prior to filing the lawsuits the Company was required to deposit the estimated tax due of approximately $4,083,000 with respect to the first FPAA, and $7,710,606 with respect to the second FPAA, with the IRS pursuant to the Internal Revenue Code.  If it is determined that the amount of tax due, if any, related to the lease-financing transactions is less than the amount of the deposits, the remaining amount of the deposits would be returned to the Company.

In order to curtail the accrual of additional interest related to the disputed tax benefits and because interest rates were unfavorable, on March 7, 2003, the Company submitted to the IRS a total of $13,640,797, which constitutes the interest that would have accrued based on the adjustments proposed in the FPAAs related to both of the lease-financing transactions.  If it is determined that the amount of interest due, if any, related to the lease-financing transactions is less than the $13,640,797, the remaining amount of the prepaid interest will be refunded to the Company, plus interest thereon.

No reliable prediction can be made at this time as to the likely outcome of the lawsuits; however, if the lawsuits are decided adversely to the partnerships, all or a portion of the $12 million in tax benefits previously recognized by the Company in connection with the Partnerships’ lease-financing transactions would be in question and penalties and interest could be assessed by the IRS.  The Company has accrued approximately $12 million at September 30, 2005 in connection with the lawsuits.  Management intends to continue to evaluate the merits of each matter and make appropriate revisions to the accrued amount as deemed necessary.

As part of the LFIN acquisition, the Company acquired two tax matters. The first relates to deductions taken on amended returns filed by LFIN during 2003 for the tax years ended June 30, 1999 through December 31, 2001. The refunds requested on the amended returns amounted to approximately $7,000,000. At December 31, 2003, LFIN had received approximately $2,000,000 of the total refund requested. Because all the refunds are under review by the IRS, LFIN had established a reserve equal to the $2,000,000 received and did not recognize any benefit for the remaining $5,000,000. The second tax contingency, which is also approximately $7,000,000, relates to permanent differences applicable to prior periods taken as deductions in 2002 and was received by LFIN during 2003. LFIN had recorded a reserve equal to the amounts received pending final resolution with the IRS. Both reserves are included in the current income taxes payable of the Company.  The Company will continue to monitor the IRS reviews.

Note 10 — Capital Ratios

The Company had a leverage ratio of 7.14% and 6.91%, risk-weighted Tier 1 capital ratio of 12.60% and 10.74% and risk-weighted total capital ratio of 13.86% and 11.99% at September 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively.  The net identified intangibles and goodwill of $329,767,000 as of September 30, 2005, recorded in connection with the acquisitions made by the Company, are deducted from the sum of core capital elements when determining the capital ratios of the Company.  The Company actively monitors the regulatory capital ratios to ensure that the Company’s bank subsidiaries are well capitalized under the regulatory framework.

In March 2005, the Federal Reserve Board issued a final rule that would continue to allow the inclusion of trust preferred securities in Tier 1 capital, but with stricter quantitative limits.  Under the final rule, after a five-year transition period ending March 31, 2009, the aggregate amount of trust preferred securities and certain other capital elements would be limited to 25% of Tier 1 capital elements, net of goodwill, less any associated deferred tax liability.  The amount of trust preferred securities and certain other elements in excess of the limit could be included in Tier 2 capital, subject to restrictions.  Bank holding companies with significant international operations will be expected to limit trust preferred securities to 15% of Tier 1 capital elements, net of goodwill; however, they may include qualifying mandatory convertible preferred securities up to the 25% limit.
