Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements Cullen/Frost Bankers, Inc. and Subsidiaries (tables in thousands) Basis of Presentation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The consolidated financial statements have not been audited by independent accountants, but in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations. All such adjustments were of a normal and recurring nature. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Corporation's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1996. The balance sheet at December 31, 1996 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. Certain reclassifications have been made to make prior periods comparable. Allowance for Possible Loan Losses An analysis of the transactions in the allowance for possible loan losses is presented below. The amount charged to operating expense is based on management's assessment of the adequacy of the allowance to absorb future possible loan losses. Nine Months Ended September 30 -------------------- (in thousands) 1997 1996 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Balance at beginning of the period $37,626 $32,268 Provision for possible loan losses 5,900 5,500 Loan loss reserve of acquired institutions 2,105 627 Net charge-offs: Losses charged to the allowance (6,733) (6,967) Recoveries 2,818 6,120 ------- ------- Net charge-offs (3,915) (847) ------- ------- Balance at the end of period $41,716 $37,548 ======= ======= Impaired Loans A loan within the scope of SFAS No. 114 is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Corporation will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement, including scheduled principal and interest payments. At September 30, 1997, the majority of the impaired loans were real estate loans and collectibility was measured based on the fair value of the collateral. Interest payments on impaired loans are typically applied to principal unless collectibility of the principal amount is fully assured, in which case interest is recognized on the cash basis. Interest revenue recognized on impaired loans as of September 30, 1997 and 1996 was $14,000 and $247,000, respectively. The total allowance for possible loan losses includes activity related to allowances calculated in accordance with SFAS No. 114 and activity related to other loan loss allowances determined in accordance with SFAS No. 5.
The following is a summary of loans considered to be impaired: <TABLE> <CAPTION> September 30 ------------------- (in thousands) 1997 1996 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------- <S> <C> <C> Impaired loans with no valuation reserve $1,348 $3,513 Impaired loans with a valuation reserve 3,053 2,137 ------ ------ Total recorded investment in impaired loans $4,401 $5,650 ====== ====== Average recorded investment in impaired loans $5,551 $8,051 Valuation reserve 1,833 1,300 </TABLE> Earnings Per Common Share The weighted average number of shares used to compute per common share earnings, including common stock equivalents where applicable, were: <TABLE> <CAPTION> Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended September 30 September 30 ----------------------- ----------------------- 1997 1996 1997 1996 ----------------------- ----------------------- <S> <C> <C> <C> <C> Primary 22,978,048 22,917,828 23,065,138 22,871,025 Fully Diluted 23,011,492 22,956,738 23,176,097 22,954,535 </TABLE> Repurchases of common stock were made during the third quarter of 1997 in connection with the Company's stock repurchase program approved in the second quarter of 1996 which allowed for the repurchase of up to 500,000 shares. The repurchased shares are being accounted for under the cost method where the gross cost of the shares reacquired is debited to a treasury shares account. As of September 30, 1997, 378,700 shares had been repurchased under this program at an average price of $43.02 per share. In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 128, Earnings per Share, which is required to be adopted on December 31, 1997. At that time, the Corporation will be required to change the method currently used to compute earnings per share and to restate all prior periods. Under the new requirements for calculating basic earnings per share, the dilutive effect of stock options will be excluded. The impact is expected to result in an immaterial increase in primary earnings per share for the third quarter ended September 30, 1997 and September 30, 1996 and for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996. Statement 128 is not expected to have an impact on the calculation of fully diluted earnings per share for these quarters. Capital The table below reflects various measures of regulatory capital at September 30, 1997 and 1996. As a result of the issuance of the $100,000,000 Trust Preferred Capital Securities discussed in the "Capital and Liquidity" section found on page 18, all the regulatory capital ratios are up when compared to the third quarter of 1996. <TABLE> <CAPTION> September 30, 1997 September 30, 1996 ------------------- ------------------- Capital Amount Ratio Amount Ratio - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ <S> <C> <C> <C> <C> Risk-Based Tier 1 Capital $ 409,414 13.90% $ 294,211 11.84% Tier 1 Capital Minimum requirement 117,821 4.00 99,373 4.00 Total Capital $ 446,294 15.15% $ 325,329 13.10% Total Capital Minimum requirement 235,643 8.00 198,745 8.00 Risk-adjusted assets, net of goodwill $2,945,533 $2,484,315 Leverage ratio 8.38% 6.65% Average equity as a percentage of average assets 8.01 7.96 </TABLE>
The FDIC Improvement Act of 1991 ("FDICIA") established five capital tiers for depository institutions and final rules relating to these tiers were adopted by the federal banking agencies. At September 30, 1997 and 1996, the Corporation's subsidiary banks were considered "well capitalized" as defined by FDICIA, the highest rating, and the Corporation's capital ratios were in excess of "well capitalized" levels. A financial institution is deemed to be well capitalized if the institution has a total risk-based capital ratio of 10.0 percent or greater, a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 6.0 percent or greater, and a leverage ratio of 5.0 percent or greater, and the institution is not subject to an order, written agreement, capital directive or prompt corrective action directive to meet and maintain a specific level for any capital measure. The Corporation is subject to the regulatory capital requirements administered by the Federal Reserve Board. Regulators can initiate certain mandatory actions, if the Corporation fails to meet the minimum requirements, that could have a direct material effect on the Corporation's financial statements. The Corporation and its subsidiary banks currently exceed all minimum capital requirements. Cullen/Frost Capital Trust I, a Delaware statutory business trust (the "Issuer Trust") and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation, issued on February 6, 1997 $100,000,000 of its 8.42 percent Capital Securities, Series A (the "Capital Securities"), which represent beneficial interests in the Issuer Trust, in an offering exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933 pursuant to Rule 144A. The Capital Securities will mature on February 1, 2027 and are redeemable in whole or in part at the option of the Corporation at any time after February 1, 2007 with the approval of the Federal Reserve and in whole at any time upon the occurrence of certain events affecting their tax or regulatory capital treatment. The Issuer Trust used the proceeds of the offering of the Capital Securities to purchase Junior Subordinated Debentures of the Corporation which constitute its only assets and which have terms substantially similar to the Capital Securities. Payments of distributions on the Capital Securities and payments on liquidation or redemption of the Capital Securities are guaranteed by the Corporation on a limited basis pursuant to a Guarantee. The Corporation has also entered into an Agreement as to Expenses and Liabilities with the Issuer Trust pursuant to which it has agreed on a subordinated basis to pay any costs, expenses or liabilities of the Issuer Trust other than those arising under the Capital Securities. The obligations of the Corporation under the Junior Subordinated Debentures, the related Indenture, the trust agreement establishing the Issuer Trust, the Guarantee and the Agreement as to Expenses and Liabilities, in the aggregate, constitute a full and unconditional guarantee by the Corporation of the Issuer Trust's obligations under the Capital Securities. The Corporation will use the proceeds of the sale of the Junior Subordinated Debentures for general corporate purposes, which may include the reduction of short-term indebtedness, investments at the holding company level, investments in the capital of, or extensions of credit to, the Corporation's subsidiaries, acquisitions and the repurchase of the Corporation's common stock, see "Pending Acquisitions" on page 9. The Capital Securities are included in the Tier 1 capital of the Corporation for regulatory capital purposes and are reported as debt on the balance sheet. The Corporation records distributions payable on the Capital Securities as interest expense. The Corporation has the right to defer payments of interest on the Junior Subordinated Debentures at any time or from time to time for a period of up to ten consecutive semi-annual periods with respect to each deferral period. Under the terms of the Junior Subordinated Debentures, in the event that under certain circumstances there is an event of default under the Junior Subordinated Debentures or the Corporation has elected to defer interest on the Junior Subordinated Debentures, the Corporation may not, with certain exceptions, declare or pay any dividends or distributions on its capital stock or purchase or acquire any of its capital stock. On March 13, 1997, the Corporation and the Issuer Trust, filed a Registration Statement on Form S-4 with the Securities and Exchange Commission to register under the Securities Act of 1933 the exchange of up to $100,000,000 aggregate Liquidation Amount of "new" 8.42 percent Capital Securities, Series A for the then outstanding Capital Securities. On April 25, 1997, the Corporation exchanged all of the outstanding Capital Securities for registered Capital Securities. The "new" Capital Securities have the same terms as the "old" Capital Securities. This exchange enhanced the transferability of the Capital Securities and will have no impact on redemption of the Capital Securities, the Junior subordinated Debentures issued by the Company, the Company's guarantee of the Capital Securities, or other matters described above.
Income Taxes The tax expense for the third quarter of 1997 was $8,889,000. This amount consisted of current tax expense of $10,457,000 and deferred tax benefit of $1,568,000. Year-to-date tax expense is $26,125,000, consisting of current tax expense of $29,611,000 and deferred tax benefit of $3,486,000. Net deferred tax assets were $6,382,000 as of September 30, 1997 with no valuation allowance. The deferred tax assets were supported by taxes paid in prior years. The tax expense for the third quarter of 1996 was $7,727,000. Income tax payments for the first nine months of 1997 and 1996 were $24,041,000 and $23,440,000, respectively. Acquisitions On March 7, 1997, the Corporation paid approximately $32.2 million to acquire Corpus Christi Bancshares, Inc., including its subsidiary, Citizens State Bank in Corpus Christi, Texas. The purchase price has been allocated to the underlying assets and liabilities based on estimated fair value at the date of acquisition. Such estimates may be subsequently revised. Total intangible assets associated with the transaction amounted to approximately $21.4 million. The Corporation acquired loans of approximately $108 million and deposits of approximately $184 million. The acquisition did not have a material impact on the third quarter net income and is not expected to have a material impact on the Corporation's 1997 net income. On January 5, 1996, the Corporation paid approximately $17.7 million to acquire S.B.T. Bancshares, Inc., including its subsidiary, State Bank and Trust Company in San Marcos, Texas. The Corporation acquired loans of approximately $51 million and deposits of approximately $112 million. On February 15, 1996, the Corporation paid approximately $33.5 million to acquire Park National Bank in Houston, Texas. The Corporation acquired loans of approximately $157 million and deposits of approximately $225 million. Pending Acquisitions On October 15, 1997, the Corporation entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Harrisburg Bancshares, Inc. of Houston, Texas and its subsidiary Harrisburg Bank which has deposits of approximately $207 million. The Corporation agreed to pay approximately $258 per fully diluted share or 2.2 times book value or approximately $55.3 million. The acquisition is expected to be completed in early 1998 following shareholder and regulatory approval. This transaction will be accounted for as a purchase with total cash consideration being funded through internal sources. Other Accounting Changes In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income." The statement provides that all items that are required to be recognized under accounting standards as comprehensive income be reported in a financial statement that is displayed with the same prominence as other financial statements. The provisions of SFAS No. 130 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material impact on financial position or results of operations. In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information." The statement establishes standards for the method that public entities use to report information about operating segments in annual financial statements and requires that those enterprises report selected information about operating segments in interim financial reports issued to shareholders. It also establishes standards for related disclosures about products and services, geographical areas and major customers. The provisions of SFAS No. 131 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. Adoption in interim financial statements is not required until the year after initial adoption; however, comparative prior year information is required. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a significant financial effect on the Corporation.
Derivative Financial Instruments Derivatives are used to hedge interest rate exposure by modifying the interest rate characteristics of related balance sheet instruments. The specific criteria required for derivatives used for these purposes are described below. Derivatives that do not meet these criteria are carried at market value with changes in value recognized currently in earnings. Derivatives used as hedges must be effective at reducing the risk associated with the exposure being hedged and must be designated as a hedge at the inception of the derivative contract. Derivatives currently used for hedging purposes include swaps and purchased options. The fair value of derivative contracts are carried off-balance sheet and the unrealized gains and losses on derivative contracts are generally deferred. The interest component associated with derivatives used as hedges or to modify the interest rate characteristics of assets and liabilities is recognized over the life of the contract in net interest income. Upon contract settlement or termination, the cumulative change in the market value of such derivatives is recorded as an adjustment to the carrying value of the underlying asset or liability and recognized in net interest income over the expected remaining life of the related asset or liability. In instances where the underlying instrument is sold, the cumulative change in the value of the associated derivative is recognized immediately in earnings.
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Financial Review Cullen/Frost Bankers, Inc. and Subsidiaries (taxable-equivalent basis - tables in thousands) Results of Operations The results of operations are included in the material that follows. The Corporation completed one acquisition during the first quarter of 1997 and two for the entire year of 1996. These acquisitions, which are outlined in the footnotes to the financial statements on page nine, were accounted for as purchase transactions, and as such, their related results of operations are included in the financial information that follows from the date of acquisition.

Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 was $46,840,000 or $2.03 per common share compared to $40,578,000 or $1.77 per common share for
the same period of 1996. Return on average assets and average equity increased to 1.29 percent and 16.09 percent for the third quarter of 1997. This compares to 1.27 percent and 16.02 percent for the third quarter of 1996. Return on average assets and average equity for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 increased to 1.28 percent and 15.97 percent compared to 1.22 percent and 15.33 percent for 1996. The Corporation has historically paid cash and thus used the purchase method of accounting for its acquisitions which has resulted in the creation of intangible assets. These intangible assets are deducted from capital in the determination of regulatory capital. Thus, "cash" or "tangible" earnings represents regulatory capital generated during the year and can be viewed as net income excluding intangible amortization, net of tax. While the definition of "cash" or "tangible" earnings may vary by company, we believe this definition is appropriate as it measures the per share growth of regulatory capital, which impacts the amount available for dividends, stock repurchases and acquisitions. The following table reconciles reported earnings to net income excluding intangible amortization ("cash" earnings): <TABLE> <CAPTION> Nine Months Ended -------------------------------------------------------------- September 1997 September 1996 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Reported Intangible "Cash" Reported Intangible "Cash" earnings Amortization earnings earnings Amortization earnings - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- <S> <C> <C> <C> <C> <C> <C> Income before income taxes $72,965 $ 8,891 $81,856 $63,181 $8,375 $71,556 Income taxes 26,125 2,361 28,486 22,603 2,384 24,987 ------- ------- ------- ------- ------ ------- Net income $46,840 $ 6,530 $53,370 $40,578 $5,991 $46,569 ======= ======= ======= ======= ====== ======= Net income per common share $ 2.03 $ .28 $ 2.31 $ 1.77 $ .27 $ 2.04 Return on assets 1.28% 1.46%* 1.22% 1.39%* Return on equity 15.97 18.20 ** 15.33 17.69** * Calculated as A/B ** Calculated as A/C Sept 1997 Sept 1996 ----------------- ---------- ---------- (A) Net income before intangible amortization (including goodwill and core deposit intangibles, net of tax) $ 53,370 $ 46,569 (B) Total average assets 4,881,073 4,460,210 (C) Average shareholders' equity 392,086 353,640 </TABLE> <TABLE> <CAPTION> Three Months Ended -------------------------------------------------------------- September 1997 June 1997 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Reported Intangible "Cash" Reported Intangible "Cash" earnings Amortization earnings earnings Amortization earnings - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- <S> <C> <C> <C> <C> <C> <C> Income before income taxes $25,035 $ 3,062 $28,097 $24,445 $3,119 $27,564 Income taxes 8,889 795 9,684 8,814 816 9,630 ------- ------- ------- ------- ------ ------- Net income $16,146 $ 2,267 $18,413 $15,631 $2,303 $17,934 ======= ======= ======= ======= ====== ======= Net income per common share $ .70 $ .10 $ .80 $ .68 $ .09 $ .77 Return on assets 1.29% 1.47%* 1.27% 1.46%* Return on equity 16.09 18.35 ** 16.02 18.38** * Calculated as A/B ** Calculated as A/C Sept 1997 June 1997 ----------------- ---------- ---------- (A) Net income before intangible amortization (including goodwill and core deposit intangibles, net of tax) $ 18,413 $ 17,934 (B) Total average assets 4,968,394 4,922,916 (C) Average shareholders' equity 398,067 391,439 </TABLE>

The decrease in net interest margin from the third quarter of last year is reflective of the favorable impact of the acquisition and higher loan volumes offset by higher deposit costs and interest expense related to the $100 million Trust Preferred Capital Securities, see "Capital and Liquidity" on page 18. Net interest spread of 3.88 percent decreased three basis points from the second quarter of 1997 and 15 basis points from the third quarter of 1996. The net interest spread decrease from a year ago was primarily because of the increase in deposit costs and interest expense related to the Trust Preferred Capital Securities. <TABLE> <CAPTION> Change in Net Interest Income -------------------------------------------- Third Quarter Third Quarter Year-to-Date 1997 1997 1997 vs. vs. vs. Third Quarter Second Quarter Year-to-Date 1996 1997 1996 -------------------------------------------- Amount Amount Amount - -------------------------------------------------------------------------- <S> <C> <C> <C> <C> Due to volume $ 4,811 $ 799 $13,645 Due to interest rate spread (193) (120) (4) ------- ------- ------- $ 4,618 $ 679 $13,641 ======= ======= ======= </TABLE>

Total non-interest income was flat compared to the second quarter of 1997 as increases in trust fees and service charges were offset by lower other income. Total non-interest income was up $4.6 million, or 19.9 percent compared to the third quarter of 1996 as a result of higher trust fees and service charge income. Trust fee income increased $916,000 or 9.4 percent compared to last quarter and increased $2.0 million or 22.9 percent from the third quarter of 1996. The increase from the second quarter and the third quarter of 1996 is attributable to the increase in the number of accounts held and trust asset growth resulting from improvement in the stock and bond markets. Service charges on deposit accounts increased 2.2 percent from the second quarter of this year and $1.3 million or 13.5 percent from the third quarter of 1996. The majority of the increase from the previous quarter and third quarter a year ago is primarily a result of higher service charges related to commercial deposits and overdraft charges in addition to higher volumes processed for correspondent banks from the third quarter a year ago. Other service charges were up 3.9 percent and 32.9 percent compared to the second quarter of 1997 and the third quarter of 1996, respectively. The increase from the second quarter was primarily due to higher volumes and mutual fund fees offset somewhat by lower loan prepayment fees. The increase from a year ago was primarily due to higher volumes, mutual fund fees and loan prepayment fees. Other non-interest income decreased $1.2 million or 26.5 percent from the second quarter of this year and increased $635,000 or 24.0 percent compared to the third quarter of 1996. The decrease from the second quarter is mainly due to a refund of franchise taxes received in the second quarter. Most of the increase from the third quarter of 1996 is due to mineral interest royalties, gains on the disposition of certain loans and foreclosed assets and brokerage commissions. For the nine months ended September 30, 1997... Non-interest income increased $10.4 million or 14.8 percent compared to the same period last year. Trust income increased $4.6 million or 18.2 percent and is attributable to the increase in the number of accounts held and trust asset growth resulting from improvement in the stock market. Service charges on deposit accounts increased $4.1 million or 14.5 percent compared to the same period one year ago. The increase is mainly due to higher service charges related to commercial deposits, volumes processed for correspondent banks and overdraft charges. An immaterial gain on securities transactions was realized for the 1997 period compared to a loss of $997,000 a year ago. Other income is flat compared to the same period last year.

Non-interest expense was flat compared to last quarter and increased $6.2 million or 13.8 percent compared to the third quarter of 1996. The increase from the third quarter of 1996 results primarily from higher salary costs and operating expenses. Salaries and wages increased $1.0 million or 4.9 percent from the second quarter of 1997 and $3.1 million or 17.2 percent from the third quarter of 1996 primarily as a result of the acquisitions, normal merit increases and additional bonus incentives recorded in the third quarter of 1997. Pension and employee benefits decreased 7.2 percent compared to last quarter and increased 6.9 percent compared to the third quarter of 1996. The decrease from the second quarter is primarily a result of the use of forfeited shares to fund the employer match on the 401(k) plan and lower payroll taxes. The increase from a year ago is due to higher payroll taxes and medical insurance offset by lower contributions to the employee related stock plan by the use of forfeited shares and lower workers compensation insurance expense. Net occupancy of banking premises expense increased 5.3 percent from the second quarter of 1997 and 4.0 percent from the third quarter of 1996. The increase from the second quarter is primarily due to higher utility costs and operating expenses and the increase from a year ago is primarily due to higher utility costs and property taxes, offset by higher tenant income. Furniture and equipment expense was flat compared to the second quarter of 1997 and increased 6.4 percent from the same quarter last year mostly due to equipment rental and software amortization. Amortization of intangibles was flat compared to the second quarter of 1997 and increased 7.2 percent from the third quarter of 1996 due to the 1997 acquisition. Other non-interest expenses decreased $503,000 or 3.4 percent from the second quarter and increased $2.2 million or 17.9 percent from the third quarter last year. The decrease from the second quarter is primarily due to lower advertising, travel and check printing charges and the increase from a year ago is due to higher operating expenses. In addition, included in other expenses for the third quarter of 1997 is approximately $361,000 related to Year 2000 compliance program. For the nine months ended September 30, 1997... Total non-interest expense was up $13.8 million or 10.3 percent compared to the same period one year ago. Salaries and wages were up $7.6 million or 14.2 percent compared to the same period one year ago primarily because of the acquisitions and normal merit increases. Pension and other benefits increased $1 million or 8.8 percent from the same period last year as the acquisitions affected payroll tax and contributions to the employee related stock plans. Net occupancy of banking premises was flat compared to a year ago. Furniture and equipment expense increased $419,000, or 4.9 percent due to higher equipment rental cost and software related expenses. Intangible amortization increased $516,000 or 6.2 percent from the same period one year ago due to acquisitions. Other non-interest expenses increased $4.2 million or 10.8 percent, primarily due to higher operating expenses, including acquisition related costs. Included in other expenses for 1997 were approximately $612,000 related to the Year 2000 compliance program. Currently, the Corporation estimates the total cost of this program over a three year period to be approximately $3 million. The efficiency ratio measures what percentage of bank revenue is absorbed by non-interest expense. The Corporation's year-to- date efficiency ratio was 65.0 percent compared to 65.6 percent in 1996.
Income Taxes The Corporation's effective tax rate for the second and third quarters of 1997 and 1996 approximated the statutory rate of 35 percent. Balance Sheet Average assets of $4,968,394,000 were flat with the previous quarter and up 10.5 percent from the third quarter of 1996. The increase from a year ago was primarily because of the acquisitions and the $100 million Trust Preferred Capital Securities, see "Capital and Liquidity" on page 18. Total deposits averaged $4,280,990,000 for the current quarter, flat with the previous quarter and up 9.6 percent when compared to the third quarter of 1996. Average loans for the third quarter of 1997 were $2,514,945,000. This represents an increase in average loans of 2.3 percent from the second quarter of 1997 and an increase in average loans of 17.4 percent from the third quarter of last year.

Approximately 70 percent of the increase in loans from a year ago resulted from internally generated growth. Real Estate Loans Real estate loans at September 30, 1997, were $1,129,184,000 or 44.3 percent of period-end loans compared to 46.6 percent a year ago. Residential permanent mortgage loans at September 30, 1997, were $456,681,000 compared to $443,914,000 at June 30, 1997, and $415,650,000 at September 30, 1996. Real estate loans classified as "other" are essentially amortizing commercial and industrial loans with maturities of less than five years secured by real property. At September 30, 1997, real estate loans 90 days past due (excluding non- accrual and restructured loans) were $2,427,000, compared with $2,038,000 at June 30, 1997, and $2,772,000 at September 30, 1996. <TABLE> <CAPTION> 1997 1996 ------------------------ -------- Real Estate Loans Percentage Period-End Balances Sept 30 of Total Sept 30 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- <S> <C> <C> <C> Construction $ 119,447 10.6% $ 66,802 Land 54,913 4.9 47,577 Permanent mortgages: Commercial 251,271 22.2 233,623 Residential 456,681 40.4 415,650 Other 246,872 21.9 254,624 ---------- ----- ---------- $1,129,184 100.0% $1,018,276 ========== ===== ========== Non-accrual and restructured $ 6,788 .6% $ 6,919 </TABLE>

Most of the Corporation's Mexican loans are either secured by liquid U.S. assets or are unsecured loans to major financial institutions to finance international trade transactions. Of the trade-related credits, approximately 65.7 percent are related to companies exporting from Mexico. As of September 30, 1997, none of the Mexican related loans were on non-performing status. <TABLE> <CAPTION> MEXICAN LOANS ----------------------- Percentage of September 30, 1997 Amount Total Loans - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- <S> <C> <C> Loans to financial institutions $18,597 .7% Loans to private firms or individuals 3,746 .2 ------- ---- $22,343 .9% ======= ==== </TABLE> Non-Performing Assets <TABLE> <CAPTION> NON-PERFORMING ASSETS -------------------------- Real September 30, 1997 Estate Other Total - --------------------------------------------------------------------------- <S> <C> <C> <C> Non-accrual and restructured loans $ 6,788 $4,938 $11,726 Foreclosed assets 2,838 767 3,605 ------- ------ ------- Total $ 9,626 $5,705 $15,331 ======= ====== ======= As a percentage of total non-performing assets 62.8% 37.2% 100.0% </TABLE> Non-performing assets totaled $15,331,000 at September 30, 1997 down 3.7 percent and .9 percent, respectively, from $15,924,000 at June 30, 1997 and $15,478,000 at September 30, 1996. Non-performing assets as a percentage of total loans and foreclosed assets decreased to .60 percent at September 30, 1997 from .62 percent one year ago. Foreclosed assets consist of property which has been formally repossessed. Foreclosed assets are valued at the lower of the loan balance or estimated fair value, less estimated selling costs, at the time of foreclosure. Write-downs occurring at acquisition are charged against the allowance for possible loan losses. On an ongoing basis, properties are appraised as required by market indications and applicable regulations. Write-downs are provided for subsequent declines in value. Expenses related to maintaining foreclosed properties are included in other non-interest expense. The after-tax impact (assuming a 35 percent marginal tax rate) of lost interest from non-performing assets was $232,000 or $.01 per common share for the third quarter of 1997, compared to approximately $225,000 or $.01 per common share for the second quarter of 1997 and $203,000 or $.01 per common share for the third quarter of 1997. For the nine months ended September 30, 1997, the after-tax impact (assuming a 35 percent marginal tax rate) was approximately $637,000 or $.03 per common share, compared with approximately $673,000 or $.03 per common share for the comparable period last year. Total loans 90 days past due (excluding non-accrual and restructured loans) were $8,038,000 at September 30, 1997, compared to $5,589,000 at June 30, 1997, and $5,497,000 at September 30, 1996.
Allowance for Possible Loan Losses The allowance for possible loan losses was $41,716,000 or 1.64 percent of period-end loans at September 30, 1997, compared to $37,548,000 or 1.72 percent at September 30, 1996 and $41,080,000 or 1.63 percent at June 30, 1997. The allowance for possible loan losses as a percentage of non-accrual and restructured loans was 355.8 percent at September 30, 1997, compared to 324.5 percent at September 30, 1996 and 304.8 percent at the end of the second quarter of 1997. The Corporation recorded a $2,000,000 provision for possible loan losses during the third quarter of 1997. This compares to $2,300,000 provision for possible loan losses during the third quarter of 1996 and $2,275,000 for the second quarter of 1997. Net charge-offs in the third quarter of 1997 totaled $1,364,000, compared to a net charge-offs of $1,105,000 and $1,242,000 for the third quarter of 1996 and the second quarter of 1997, respectively. <TABLE> <CAPTION> NET CHARGE-OFFS (RECOVERIES) ---------------------------- 1997 1996 ------------------ ------- Third Second Third Quarter Quarter Quarter - ------------------------------------------------------------------- <S> <C> <C> <C> Real estate $ 29 $ (294) $ (414) Commercial and industrial 79 387 1,345 Consumer 1,247 1,051 288 Other, including foreign 9 98 (114) ------- ------- ------- $ 1,364 $ 1,242 $ 1,105 ======= ======= ======= Provision for possible loan losses $ 2,000 $ 2,275 $ 2,300 Allowance for possible loan losses 41,716 41,080 36,230 </TABLE> Capital and Liquidity At September 30, 1997, shareholders' equity was $396,622,000 compared to $361,374,000 at September 30, 1996 and $396,473,000 at June 30, 1997. The Corporation had an unrealized gain on securities available for sale, net of deferred taxes, of $9.6 million as of September 30, 1997 compared to $251,000 as of September 30, 1996. The unrealized gain is primarily due to the decrease in market interest rates in 1997. Under regulatory requirements, the unrealized gain or loss on securities available for sale is not included in the calculation of risk-based capital and leverage ratios. The Corporation paid a cash dividend of $.25 per common share in the third and second quarters of 1997 compared to $.21 per common share for the third quarter a year ago.
