WAYNE, N.J., July 19 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Valley National Bancorp
(NYSE: VLY) ("Valley"), the holding company for Valley National Bank,
announced today six months and second quarter results for 2006. Net income
for the six months ended June 30, 2006 was $81.7 million compared to $77.3
million for the same period in 2005, an increase of 5.7 percent. Adjusting
for a five percent stock dividend issued on May 22, 2006, fully diluted
earnings per common share were $0.70 for the six months ended June 30,
2006, compared to $0.69 per common share for the six months ended June 30,
2005. All common share data presented below was adjusted to reflect the
stock dividend.
Net income for the second quarter of 2006 was $40.8 million compared to
$39.0 million for the second quarter of 2005, an increase of 4.6 percent.
Fully diluted earnings per common share were $0.35 for the second quarter
of 2006, compared to $0.34 per common share in the same quarter of 2005.
Chairman's Comments
Gerald H. Lipkin, Chairman, President and CEO noted that, "Although the
current economic and interest rate environment remains challenging, once
again, Valley generated excellent shareholder returns. For the quarter, the
average return on tangible shareholders' equity exceeded 22.0 percent.
Management continues to focus on structuring the balance sheet in a manner
which optimizes long-term returns as compared with immediate results.
Loan growth during the quarter was robust as the portfolio grew by 8.6
percent on an annualized basis. New loan originations in the second quarter
of 2006 exceeded originations in the same period of 2005 by approximately
20.0 percent. Additionally, the interest rate on new originations was
nearly 7.00 percent, compared to 5.75 percent a year earlier. Management
continues to utilize various funding sources to support loan growth. During
the first six months of 2006, Valley repriced and entered into nearly $800
million of short and long-term borrowings at an average interest rate of
4.42 percent with an average life of 2-1/2 years. During the second quarter
of 2006, market interest rates on wholesale funds escalated, making
deposits a better funding alternative. Valley's deposit growth initiatives
coupled with enhanced marketing efforts have returned solid results during
the second quarter as deposits increased over 10.0 percent on an annualized
basis. Additionally, new checking and saving account originations during
the first six months in 2006 approached nearly 39 thousand.
The contraction of two basis points in the net interest margin from the
first quarter reflects the smallest linked quarter decrease since the third
quarter of 2004. Stabilization of the margin coupled with growth in
interest earning assets and the structure of deposit and borrowed funds
should produce positive results for the remainder of 2006."
Net Interest Income and Margin
Net interest income on a tax equivalent basis was $100.0 million for
the second quarter of 2006, a $1.6 million decrease from the same quarter
of 2005 and a decrease of $263 thousand from the linked quarter ended March
31, 2006. The decrease during the quarter was mainly a result of an
increase in funding costs of $6.1 million, or 26 basis points from the
first quarter of 2006.
The net interest margin on a tax equivalent basis was 3.48 percent for
the second quarter of 2006, a decline of two basis points from the linked
quarter ended March 31, 2006. However, the yield on average total loans
continue to improve as the second quarter of 2006 equaled 6.49 percent, an
increase of 54 basis points from the same period a year ago and a 23 basis
point increase from the first quarter of 2006.
Valley's cost of total deposits remained relatively low by industry
standards at 2.11 percent for the second quarter of 2006 compared to 1.85
percent for the three months ended March 31, 2006. Management is pleased
with an increase of only 26 basis points as the average federal funds rate
increased approximately 47 basis points from the first quarter.
Valley entered into cash flow hedges in July 2004, which negatively
impacted net interest income during the six months ended June 30, 2006.
When the hedges expire on August 1, 2006, Valley expects net interest
income to improve by approximately $1.5 million per quarter and the net
interest margin to increase by over four basis points, on an annual basis,
based upon the current level of interest rates and anticipated loan volume.
Non-Interest Income
Non-interest income was unchanged from the first quarter of 2006,
totaling approximately $19.4 million for the three months ended June 30,
2006. However, service charges on deposit accounts increased $348 thousand.
While, trust and investment services also increased $249 thousand to $1.9
million from the prior quarter mainly due to an increase in managed account
fees. Partially offsetting the increases, net gains on securities
transactions decreased $401 thousand as compared to the first quarter of
2006.
Non-interest income increased $55 thousand from a year ago, totaling
approximately $19.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006
compared to $19.3 million for the same period in 2005. Trust and investment
services increased $312 thousand, or 19.3 percent, from $1.6 million for
the second quarter of 2005 mainly due to an increase in managed account
fees. Bank owned life insurance income increased $286 thousand, or 16.3
percent, primarily due to a higher yield on the underlying investment
securities. However, fees from loan servicing decreased $299 thousand to
$1.5 million for the second quarter of 2006 compared to the same period in
2005 mainly due to smaller balances of loans serviced resulting from
refinance and payoff activity.
Non-Interest Expense
Non-interest expense increased by $1.4 million, or 2.4 percent to $61.9
million for the quarter ended June 30, 2006 from $60.5 million for the
quarter ended June 30, 2005 primarily due to a $1.1 million increase in net
occupancy and equipment expense. The increase in net occupancy and
equipment expense is mainly attributed to the acquisition of NorCrown Bank
on June 3, 2005, which added 15 offices to Valley's branch network.
Non-interest expense increased $1.1 million, or 1.9 percent to $61.9
million for the second quarter of 2006 from $60.8 million for the linked
quarter ended March 31, 2006. Advertising expense increased $651 thousand
primarily due to new checking account and certificate of deposit promotions
during the second quarter. Other non-interest expense also increased $738
thousand mainly due to customer events, CRA expenses, and postage for
additional customer mailings during the period.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense as a percentage of income before income taxes was
22.6 percent and 32.5 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2006 and
2005, respectively. The decline was mainly due to lower state income tax
expense, settlement of income tax examinations, and an increase in low
income housing tax credits from a year ago.
For the remainder of 2006, Valley anticipates an effective tax rate of
approximately 27.0 percent, compared to 24.7 percent for the six months
ended June 30, 2006. The rate is projected based upon management's judgment
regarding future results and could vary due to changes in income, tax
planning strategies and federal or state income tax laws.
Loans and Deposits
During the second quarter loans increased 2.1 percent, or 8.6 percent
on an annualized basis, to approximately $8.3 billion at June 30, 2006
compared to $8.2 billion at March 31, 2006. The linked quarter growth in
loans is mainly comprised of increases in construction, commercial, and
automobile loans of $59.2 million, $43.5 million and $39.3 million,
respectively. The increase is mainly attributable to new originations
augmented slightly by an increase in commercial loan line usage.
During the quarter deposits increased $212.2 million, or 10.2 percent
on an annualized basis, from $8.4 billion at March 31, 2006. The increase
in deposits reflects Valley's deposit growth initiatives introduced in the
first quarter of 2006 carried through the second quarter. The largest
increases were in time deposits and money market accounts, partially offset
by a decrease in municipal deposits. For the remainder of 2006, deposit
growth is expected to be dependent on the rates dictated by market
competition versus the cost of alternative funding sources. Valley intends
to maintain a funding strategy dependent on the Bank's consolidated
interest earning asset mix.
Credit Quality
Net loan charge-offs for the second quarter of 2006 were $3.3 million
compared to $936 thousand for the second quarter of 2005, and $584 thousand
for the first quarter of 2006. The increase in net loan charge-offs is
mainly due to charge-offs totaling $2.2 million on two commercial loans,
which were on non-accrual. The provision for loan losses was $3.1 million
for the second quarter of 2006 compared to $925 thousand for the second
quarter of 2005, and $1.3 million for the first quarter of 2006. Total
non-performing assets, consisting of non-accrual loans and other real
estate owned, totaled $30.7 million, or 0.37 percent of loans and other
real estate owned at June 30, 2006 down from $35.1 million or 0.43 percent
at March 31, 2006.
Loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing at June 30, 2006 were
$7.4 million, or 0.09 percent of $8.3 billion of total loans, compared to
$5.0 million at June 30, 2005 and $2.6 million at March 31, 2006. Total
loans past due in excess of 30 days were 0.65 percent of total loans at
June 30, 2006 compared with 0.74 percent at March 31, 2006.
Financial Ratios
Valley's annualized return on average shareholders' equity was 17.25
percent and 18.41 percent for the three months ended June 30, 2006 and
2005, respectively. The decrease is mainly attributable to additional
goodwill and net core deposit intangibles generated from the NorCrown Bank
acquisition on June 3, 2005, which totaled approximately $97.4 million. On
a comparative basis, adjusting for Valley's goodwill and other intangible
assets, the annualized return on average tangible shareholders' equity was
22.31 percent and 22.51 percent, respectively, for the quarter ended June
30, 2006 and 2005. See "Notes to Selected Financial Data" section in the
tables that follow for information regarding the computation of these
ratios.
For the second quarter of 2006 and 2005, annualized return on average
assets was 1.33 percent and 1.35 percent, respectively.
Valley's risk-based capital ratios were 10.54 percent for Tier 1
capital, 12.41 percent for total capital and 8.18 percent for Tier 1
leverage at June 30, 2006.

NOTES TO SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA
(1) This press release contains certain supplemental financial
information, described in the following notes, which has been
determined by methods other than Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles ("GAAP") that management uses in its analysis of Valley's
performance. Valley's management believes these non-GAAP financial
measures provide information useful to investors in understanding the
underlying operational performance of Valley, its business and
performance trends and facilitates comparisons with the performance of
others in the financial services industry.
Tangible book value and return on average tangible equity, which
represent non-GAAP measures, are computed as follows:
-- Tangible book value is computed by dividing total shareholders'
equity less goodwill and other intangible assets by common shares
outstanding.
-- Return on average tangible shareholders' equity is computed by
dividing net income by average shareholders' equity less average
goodwill and average other intangible assets.
