CHATTANOOGA, Tenn., April 25, 2006 (PRIMEZONE) -- First Security Group, Inc. (Nasdaq:FSGI), a community bank holding company serving middle and eastern Tennessee and northern Georgia, today reported results for the first quarter of 2006.
-- Net income for the first quarter of 2006 was $2.5 million, an increase of 123.7% over net income for the first quarter of 2005. -- Diluted net income per share was $0.14 for the first quarter of 2006, an increase of 55.6% over per share income in the prior-year period. Per share results were impacted by the 37.4% increase in average diluted shares as the result of a third quarter 2005 public stock offering. -- Total assets grew 33.1% over the last twelve months to $1.1 billion, of which $77.6 million, or 9.7%, was organic. -- Asset quality is strong and continues to improve, with annualized net charge-offs reduced to 0.28% this quarter, and non-performing assets plus delinquencies at 0.51% of total assets, down from 0.34% and 0.56%, respectively, at year-end 2005. -- Total revenue increased 32.6% over the prior year, to $14.2 million.
Rodger B. Holley, Chairman, President and CEO of First Security, commented, "Our strong performance in the first quarter was driven by loan portfolio growth and an improving net interest margin, both of which contributed to our expanding revenue stream. We see revenue growth continuing into 2006 based on our hometown banking philosophy and broad range of financial products. We see numerous opportunities in our new Cookeville market, as well as in existing markets as we open additional de novo branches, and mature as a company."
Net income for the first quarter of 2006 was $2.5 million, an increase of 123.7 percent above the $1.1 million reported for the prior-year period. Diluted net income per share was $0.14 compared with $0.09 reported for the 2005 first quarter, an increase of 55.6 percent. Results reflect exceptional revenue growth from a combination of acquisition and organic loan growth, an expanding net interest margin, and growing fee income. Per share results also reflect the impact of First Security's stock offering of 4.9 million shares in the third quarter of 2005; average diluted shares for the first quarter of 2006 increased by 4,860,000, or 37.4 percent, above last year's first quarter.
Total revenue, comprised of net interest income and non-interest income, was $14.2 million for the first quarter of 2006, an increase of 32.6 percent over the $10.7 million reported for the first quarter of 2005. Net interest income increased 30.7 percent over the prior-year period, reaching $11.8 million; year-over-year growth reflects the combination of a 28.6 percent increase in average earning assets and an eight basis point improvement in the net interest margin to 5.27 percent. Compared with the previous quarter, the first quarter margin improved by 21 basis points, from 5.06 percent. Mr. Holley noted the Company's success at maintaining a strong, stable net interest margin, which has remained within a narrow 21 basis point band over the last five quarters.
Non-interest income for first quarter of 2006 was $2.4 million, a 42.7 percent increase above the $1.7 million earned in the first quarter of 2005. Of this $729,000 increase, Jackson Bank & Trust accounted for $325,000, primarily NSF fees. First Security accounted for the remaining $404,000 of fee income, an increase of 23.7 percent. The major contributors to First Security's organic growth were BOLI income (up $197,000), trust fees (up $57,000), and overdraft charges (up $53,000).
Non-interest expense for the first quarter was $10.0 million, an increase of $2.1 million, or 26.0 percent, over the $8.0 million incurred in the first quarter of 2005. The increase primarily reflects additional investment to support corporate growth and the inclusion of $1.1 million of Jackson Bank expenses. Excluding Jackson Bank, expenses rose $924,000 or 11.6 percent. Company-wide, salaries and benefits increased $1.0 million or 22.6 percent year over year; the largest contributor was the inclusion of Jackson Bank. FTE employees were 361 at quarter-end, 38 of which are with Jackson Bank. Excluding the 38 Jackson employees, First Security reduced its total workforce by three employees despite the opening of two de novo branches in the 2005 fourth quarter. The core efficiency ratio improved to 66.07 percent for the first quarter of 2006 compared with 71.31 percent for the prior-year period.
"One of our most important priorities is maintaining and continuing to improve asset quality," Mr. Holley noted, "and the results of our efforts have been impressive. All credit quality indicators are trending in the right direction, and I believe this will continue." Net charge-offs were $531,000, or 0.28 percent of average loans on an annualized basis, compared with $641,000, or 0.34 percent of average loans for the linked quarter, and $589,000, or 0.39 percent of average loans for the first quarter of 2005. Non-performing assets plus delinquencies declined to $5.4 million or 0.51 percent of total assets at March 31, 2006, compared with $5.8 million or 0.56 percent of total assets at December 31, 2005, and $6.8 million or 0.86 percent of total assets twelve months ago. Loan loss reserves were 1.32 percent of total loans at March 31, 2006.
Total assets were $1.1 billion at March 31, 2006, an increase of $264.2 million, or 33.1 percent, above year-earlier levels. Loan growth was $152.2 million, or 24.8 percent, over the twelve-month period, with Jackson Bank contributing approximately $104.3 million, or 68.5 percent, of this growth. On an organic basis, loan growth within FSGBank's franchise was $47.9 million, or 7.8 percent, year over year. The loan categories with the largest increases over the past twelve months were residential mortgage loans, up $65.7 million or 44.1 percent, to $214.8 million, most of which was acquired with Jackson Bank, and construction/land development loans, up $51.4 million or 58.1 percent, to $139.8 million, with the majority of the increase coming from the Knoxville market. Commercial real estate increased $16.9 million or 12.1 percent, to $157.1 million.
Since year-end 2005, loans grew $18.0 million or 2.4 percent (9.6 percent annualized), all of which was organic. Construction and land development accounted for $11.5 million of this growth, up 9.0 percent (36.0 percent annualized), while consumer loans, up $3.0 million or 4.4 percent (17.6 percent annualized), were another strong category; over 50% of the consumer loan increase was derived from private banking activities.
Deposits were $882.5 million at the end of first quarter, up $214.1 million, or 32.0 percent; Jackson Bank contributed approximately $140.2 million, or 65.5 percent, of total deposit growth. At March 31, 2006, core deposits (demand, savings, money market and retail time deposits) were $624.5 million, up 29.4 percent year over year. At period-end, they comprised 70.8 percent of total deposits compared with 72.2 percent of deposits twelve months ago. Since year-end 2005, deposits increased 2.4 percent (9.6 percent annualized), of which $8.7 million consisted of core deposits, which grew 1.4 percent (5.6 percent annualized). Brokered deposits, primarily used to match fund First Security's leasing portfolio, were $86.2 million, or 9.8 percent of the deposit portfolio.
Shareholders' equity at March 31, 2006 was $138.1 million, a twelve-month increase of $51.5 million, or 59.5 percent. The majority of this increase reflects $44.7 million in proceeds from the issuance of 4.9 million shares during the 2005 third quarter. Total shares outstanding at quarter-end were 17,574,000. First Security's tangible leverage ratio at quarter-end was 10.3 percent. Mr. Holley concluded, "We are off to a good start for the year, and our outlook for 2006 remains very positive. By growing our geographic and business franchise while producing greater operating earnings, we continue to build value for our shareholders."

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP"). First Security's management uses these "non-GAAP" measures in their analysis of First Security's performance. Non-GAAP measures typically adjust GAAP performance measures to exclude the effects of charges, expenses and gains related to the consummation of mergers and acquisitions, and costs related to the integration of merged entities. These non-GAAP measures may also exclude other significant gains, losses or expenses that are unusual in nature and not expected to recur. Since these items and their impact on First Security's performance are difficult to predict, management believes presentations of financial measures excluding the impact of these items provide useful supplemental information that is important for a proper understanding of the operating results of First Security's core business. These disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for operating results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies.

(b) These amounts and ratios are calculated using net operating income (net of tax) which excludes extraordinary items as defined by GAAP and certain non-recurring items. Since these items and their impact on First Security's performance are difficult to predict, management believes presentation of financial measures excluding the impact of these items provide useful supplemental information that is important for a proper understanding of the operating results of First Security's core business. Refer to the following non-GAAP reconciliation table for a detail of the non-recurring items. (c) In accordance with SNL Financial practice, the core efficiency ratio is calculated on a fully tax equivalent basis excluding non-recurring items (see footnote (b) and non-GAAP reconciliation table) and certain non-cash items, such as amortization of intangibles, gains or losses on investment securities and gains, losses and write-downs on foreclosed and repossessed properties.
