HOUSTON, TX USA
    HOUSTON, Jan. 15 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ --
Coastal Bancorp, Inc. (Nasdaq: CBSA) today reported net income available to
common stockholders of $5.7 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2002,
compared to $4.3 million for the same period in 2001, which is a $1.4 million,
or 31.9% increase.  The increase was comprised of the following:  a
$5.8 million increase in noninterest income, of which $4.4 million represents
the gain on the sale of five branch offices (see discussion below), and a
$647,000 decrease in the expense for minority interest (related to preferred
stock of Coastal Banc ssb which was redeemed on July 15, 2002), offset by a
decrease of $2.3 million in net interest income, an increase in the provision
for loan losses of $2.2 million, an increase in noninterest expense of
$158,000 and an increase in the provision for federal income taxes of
$426,000.  Diluted earnings per share for the quarter ended December 31, 2002
were $1.05 compared to $0.70 for the same period last year.  The weighted
average common shares outstanding used in the diluted earnings per share
calculations for the periods were 5,394,484 and 6,109,355, respectively.  For
the quarter ended December 31, 2002, diluted earnings per share would have
been $0.79 without the gain on the sale of the branch offices and had the
provision for loan losses for the quarter been $900,000 as budgeted.  Basic
earnings per share for the quarter ended
December 31, 2002 were $1.10 compared to $0.74 for the same period in 2001.

    Fourth Quarter 2002 Activity
    During the fourth quarter of 2002, Coastal sold five of its branches in
Central Texas (located in Llano, Burnet, Mason, Kingsland and Marble Falls,
Texas) to First State Bank Central Texas.  The sale included deposit accounts
of $75.3 million and resulted in a gain of $4.4 million.  The branches sold
had limited growth potential for Coastal.  Coastal continually monitors the
market and performance of its branch network and opens, purchases or sells
branches based on this analysis.
    In addition, during the fourth quarter of 2002, Coastal entered into an
agreement with a third party to sell approximately $77.0 million of single-
family mortgage loans.  As of December 31, 2002, $74.4 million of these loans
had been sold, $70.1 million of which were sold servicing retained and
$4.3 million (which were considered nonperforming loans) were sold servicing
released.  The remaining $2.6 million, which are under a contract for sale,
were reclassified to the held for sale category as of the end of the year.  In
connection with this sale and the reclassification of the remaining loans to
the held for sale category, the loans were written down to fair value through
a charge-off to the allowance for loan losses of $309,000.  In addition,
Coastal recorded a gain of $359,000 on the sale of these loans as a result of
Coastal recording the estimated fair value of the mortgage servicing rights
retained.

    Comparison for the Three Months ended December 31, 2002 and 2001

    Noninterest Income
    Noninterest income increased by $5.8 million for the quarter ended
December 31, 2002 compared to the quarter ended December 31, 2001.  As
discussed previously, this increase was primarily due to Coastal's sale of
five of its branches in Central Texas that resulted in a gain of $4.4 million
and the $359,000 gain on the sale of the group of loans with servicing rights
retained during the period.  In addition, service charges on deposit accounts
increased by $1.0 million and other noninterest income increased $370,000.
The increase in service charges on deposit accounts was due to Coastal's
continued focus on increasing transaction-type accounts and the related fee
income, including Coastal's new Free Checking and Bounce Protection features
on retail checking accounts introduced during August 2002.  The increase in
other noninterest income was due primarily to a $229,000 gain recorded on the
sale of branch real estate properties and a $84,000 increase in the gain on
sale of loans held for sale.  These increases were somewhat offset by a
$48,000 decrease in loan fees, a $22,000 decrease in the gain on derivative
instruments and a $68,000 decrease in the gain on sale of real estate owned.

    Net Interest Income
    Due to Coastal's smaller asset size, the lower interest rate environment,
the loan sale mentioned previously and continuing higher than expected
principal payments received on Coastal's mortgage-backed securities and
mortgage loan portfolios, Coastal experienced decreased net interest income of
$2.3 million when comparing the quarter ended December 31, 2002 to the same
period in 2001.  When comparing the two quarters, average interest-earning
assets decreased $230.0 million to $2.5 billion.  The $230.0 million decrease
in average interest-earning assets consisted primarily of a $288.1 million
decrease in the average balance of mortgage-backed securities, somewhat offset
by a $87.8 million increase in the average balance of loans receivable.  The
decrease in average interest-earning assets was largely due to the reduction
in Coastal's asset size in late November 2001.  To strategically restructure a
portion of its asset base to make it less vulnerable to market interest rate
and price fluctuations, Coastal sold $845 million of mortgage-backed
securities and purchased $512 million of primarily pass-through securities at
a premium.  This transaction had the effect of shortening the duration of the
mortgage-backed securities portfolio, thereby lessening the extension risk to
Coastal.
    In addition to the reduction in Coastal's asset size due to the
restructuring and the loan sale, during the fourth quarter of 2002 as a
consequence of the extraordinary high levels of refinancings, Coastal
continued to experience higher principal paydowns of $36.0 million (or
approximately 30% on an annualized basis) on its mortgage-backed securities
portfolio and $93.3 million (or approximately 40% on an annualized basis) on
its single-family mortgage loan portfolio, which resulted in greater premium
amortization on those assets originally purchased at a premium.
    Net interest margin decreased to 2.87% for the three months ended
December 31, 2002 from 2.97% for the three months ended December 31, 2001.
This decrease in net interest margin was a result of the 1.05% decrease in the
average yield on interest-earning assets, which was partially offset by the
1.00% decrease in the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities, both
due to the decrease in general market interest rates which started in 2001 and
continued through 2002.  Comparing the same periods, average interest-bearing
liabilities decreased $221.5 million as a result of the strategic
restructuring.

    Provision for Loan Losses
    During the quarter ended December 31, 2002, Coastal recorded a provision
for loan losses of $3.1 million compared to $900,000 for the same period in
2001.  This increase in the provision for loan losses was due to management's
reevaluation of the overall allowance for loan losses and the changes that
have occurred within the mix of Coastal's loan portfolio, in addition to
certain specific loans in the portfolio that have warranted greater attention
and specific allocations of the allowance for loan losses.  While management
believes that it has adequately provided for loan losses, it will continue to
monitor the loan portfolio and make adjustments to its allowance for loan
losses as it considers necessary.

    Noninterest Expense and Provision for Federal Income Taxes
    Noninterest expense was up $158,000 when comparing the quarter ended
December 31, 2002 to the same period in 2001.  The net increase was comprised
of the following:  increases of $233,000 in compensation, payroll taxes and
other benefits, $195,000 in advertising and $720,000 in other noninterest
expense, offset by decreases of $292,000 in office occupancy and $702,000 in
the amortization of goodwill, respectively.
    The $233,000 increase in compensation, payroll taxes and other benefits
was due to normal merit increases for existing staff and additional personnel
needed to continue Coastal's focus on commercial banking products, lending and
providing other services to commercial business customers.  The increase in
advertising expense was primarily due to Coastal's continued focus on
increasing transaction type deposit accounts.  The increase in other
noninterest expense was primarily due to the $401,000 reversal of an accrued
franchise tax liability during the 2001 period and changes in various other
categories.  The decrease in office occupancy was primarily due to certain
assets becoming fully depreciated during 2002.
    The decrease in the amortization of goodwill was due to the implementation
of FASB Statements 141, 142 and 147 effective January 1, 2002 (see discussion
below).  The provision for Federal income taxes increased $426,000 primarily
due to the increased income before Federal income taxes and minority interest,
with the effective tax rate being approximately 31% for the 2002 period and
30% for the 2001 period.

    Asset Quality
    As shown in the "Other Financial Data" table attached, at December 31,
2002, Coastal's nonperforming loans decreased, when compared to December 31,
2001, by $6.2 million or 25%, to $18.5 million.  Nonperforming loans are those
loans on nonaccrual status as well as those loans greater than ninety
(90) days delinquent and still accruing interest.
    The decrease in nonperforming loans is mainly due to Coastal's decision to
liquidate a portion of its single-family mortgage loan portfolio during 2002.
The first loan sale was on March 22, 2002 when Coastal sold $10.8 million of
its under-performing loans to a third party investor.  The second sale was in
December 2002 when Coastal sold $4.3 million of nonperforming loans as
previously discussed.
    The ratio of nonperforming assets to total assets was 0.91% at
December 31, 2002 and 1.13% as of December 31, 2001.  At December 31, 2002,
$9.2 million, or 50%, of nonperforming loans were first lien residential
(single-family) mortgage loans, $5.5 million were acquisition and development
loans, $1.7 million were commercial, financial and industrial loans,
$1.6 million were commercial real estate loans with the balance in other loan
categories.  At December 31, 2002, the allowance for loan losses as a
percentage of nonperforming loans (excluding nonperforming loans held for sale
which are recorded at the lower of cost or fair value) was 97.7% compared to
62.3% at December 31, 2001.

    Redemption of Senior Notes
    On February 1, 2002, Coastal redeemed all of its 10.0 % Senior Notes
($43.9 million) outstanding, at par plus accrued interest.

    Issuance of Trust Preferred Securities and Redemption of Coastal Banc
ssb's Noncumulative Preferred Stock
    On June 18, 2002, Coastal, through Coastal Capital Trust I (a consolidated
trust subsidiary) (the "Trust"), issued 2,000,000 in trust preferred
securities ("Trust Preferred Securities") with a liquidation preference of
$25 per security.  The Trust Preferred Securities represent undivided
beneficial interests in the Trust, which was established and is guaranteed by
Coastal Bancorp, Inc.  The Trust is the lender on the junior subordinated
debentures to Coastal whose interest payments fund the dividends on the Trust
Preferred Securities.  The debentures have the same payment terms as the Trust
Preferred Securities.  Dividends on the securities are payable quarterly at
the annual rate of 9.0%.  The proceeds from the issuance of the Trust
Preferred Securities were used to repurchase 500,000 shares of common stock
for $15.0 million from a director of the Company in June and $28.8 million was
used on July 15, 2002 to redeem Coastal Banc ssb's 9.0% Series A Noncumulative
Preferred Stock (CBSAP) through a capital contribution to Coastal Banc ssb.

    Implementation of FASB Statements 141, 142 and 147
    In July 2001, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141,
"Business Combinations" ("Statement 141") and Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets"
("Statement 142") were issued.  Statement 141 required, effective January 1,
2002, that Coastal evaluate its existing intangible assets and goodwill and
make any necessary reclassifications in order to conform with the new criteria
in Statement 141 for recognition apart from goodwill.  Statement 141 also
required that Coastal reclassify amounts originally recorded as goodwill
pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 72, "Accounting
for Certain Acquisitions of Banking or Thrift Institutions" ("Statement 72")
to other intangible assets, as those amounts, under Statement 142, were not
subject to the non-amortization provisions.  As of January 1, 2002, Coastal
had unamortized goodwill that was subject to the non-amortization provisions
of Statements 141 and 142 of $5.5 million.  As of that same date, Coastal
reclassified $16.3 million to other intangible assets and continued to
amortize these amounts in 2002.
    On October 1, 2002, Statement of Accounting Standards No. 147,
"Acquisitions of Certain Financial Institutions" ("Statement 147") was issued.
Statement 147 amended Statement 72, to exclude from its scope, the
acquisitions of financial institutions (other than transactions between two or
more mutual enterprises) and provide certain transition provisions for
existing intangible assets.  Under Statement 147 transition provisions, if the
transaction that gave rise to an unidentifiable other intangible asset was
considered a business combination, the carrying amount of that asset amount
would now be reclassified to goodwill and be subject to the non-amortization
provisions as of the effective date of the implementation of Statement 142,
which in Coastal's case was January 1, 2002.  Based on the implementation of
Statement 147, Coastal has reclassified as of January 1, 2002, the
$16.3 million mentioned above to goodwill and removed the amortization expense
recorded in 2002, through restatement of its 2002 financial statements as
required by Statement 147.  Coastal implemented these statements effective
January 1, 2002 and has tested for impairment in accordance with the
provisions of Statement 142 and did not recognize any transitional impairment
losses as the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle during the
period.
    As restated (due to the implementation of Statement 147), diluted earnings
per share for the quarter ended June 30, 2002 were $0.72 (as compared to $0.66
previously reported) and for the quarter ended March 31, 2002 were $0.57 (as
compared to $0.51 previously reported).

    Comparison for the Years Ended December 31, 2002 and 2001
    Net income available to common stockholders for the year ended
December 31, 2002 was $17.2 million compared to $19.3 million for 2001.
Diluted earnings per share for the year ended December 31, 2002 were
$2.99 compared to $3.17 for last year.  The weighted average common shares
outstanding used in the diluted earnings per share calculations for the
periods were 5,750,531 and 6,078,334, respectively.  Basic earnings per share
for the year ended December 31, 2002 were $3.13 compared to $3.34 for 2001.
    When comparing the year ended December 31, 2002 to the year ended
December 31, 2001, the primary contributor to the decrease in net income
available to common stockholders was decreased net interest income.  Net
interest income decreased $11.8 million from 2001 to 2002, as a result of
Coastal's smaller asset size as compared to 2001, lower market interest rates
and record high principal payments received on Coastal's mortgage-backed
securities and mortgage loan portfolios, as discussed previously.  In addition
to the decreased net interest income, the provision for loan losses increased
$1.9 million.  These decreases to net income available to common stockholders
were only somewhat offset by an increase of $6.1 million in noninterest
income, a $2.6 million decrease in noninterest expense, a $1.7 million
decrease in the provision for Federal income taxes and a $1.1 million decrease
in the expense for minority interest (preferred stock dividends of Coastal
Banc ssb).
    The increase in noninterest income was primarily due to the $4.4 million
gain on the 2002 sale of the five branches and the $359,000 gain recorded in
2002 on the loans sold as discussed previously.  The increase is also due to a
$2.1 million increase in service charges on deposit accounts and the $422,000
fair value loss on derivative instruments recorded in 2001 (compared to a
$12,000 fair value loss recorded during 2002).  These increases were partially
offset by a $100,000 decrease in loan fees, a $702,000 decrease in the gain on
the sale of real estate owned, a $169,000 decrease in the gain on mortgage-
backed securities and a $218,000 decrease in other noninterest income
(primarily due to $300,000 in insurance proceeds received in 2001 for
reimbursement of certain deposit losses in prior years).
    The decrease in noninterest expense was primarily due to the $2.8 million
decrease in the amortization of goodwill as discussed previously.  In
addition, Coastal experienced decreases of $869,000 and $1.3 million in office
occupancy and data processing, respectively.  The decrease in office occupancy
was primarily due to certain assets becoming fully depreciated during 2001 and
2002.  The decrease in data processing expense was due to the conversion of
the Rio Grande Valley Region branches to Coastal's primary deposit and loan
data processing system and the item processing functions brought in-house
during the third quarter of 2001.  These decreases were partially offset by an
increase of $1.1 million in compensation, payroll taxes and other benefits, a
$519,000 increase in advertising expense, a $153,000 increase in postage and
delivery expense and a $599,000 increase in other noninterest expense.  The
increase in compensation, payroll taxes and other benefits was due to the
increase in staff needed to bring the item processing functions in-house
during the third quarter of 2001, normal merit increases for existing staff
and additional personnel needed to continue Coastal's focus on commercial
banking products, lending and providing other services to commercial business
customers.  The increase in advertising and postage and delivery expenses were
primarily due to Coastal's continued focus on increasing transaction type
deposit accounts.  The increase in other noninterest expense was primarily due
to the $401,000 reversal of an accrued franchise tax liability during the
2001 period and changes in various other categories.

    Common Stock Repurchase
    During the year ended December 31, 2002, Coastal repurchased
729,575 shares of common stock at an average repurchase price of $29.82 per
share.  As of December 31, 2002, a total of 2,726,019 shares were held in
treasury at an average price of $19.45 per share for a total cost of
$53.0 million.

    The Company
    At December 31, 2002, Coastal had total assets of approximately
$2.5 billion, deposits of approximately $1.6 billion, Series A Cumulative
Preferred Stock of $27.5 million and common stockholders' equity of
approximately $125.4 million.
