Business Wire
International Bancshares Corporation (NASDAQ:IBOC) today
reported annual net income for 2008 of $132.1 million or
$1.93 per share - basic ($1.92 per share - diluted)
compared to $121.3 million or $1.76 per share - basic
($1.75 per share - diluted), which represents a 9.7
percent increase in diluted earnings per share and an 8.9
percent increase in net income over the corresponding period in
2007. Net income for the fourth quarter of 2008 was $31.7
million, or $.46 per share � basic ($.46 per share
diluted) compared to $35.4 million, or $.52 per share
� basic ($.52 per share diluted) for the corresponding
period in 2007.
Net income for the year ended December�31, 2008 was negatively
impacted by the Company increasing its provision for probable loan
losses charged to expense to $19.8 million, pretax, for the year
ended 2008. The increase in the provision was prompted by the
analysis of management regarding the extreme economic turmoil being
experienced by the United States and the Global economy at large
and the effect these events have on the Company�s loan portfolio
and the related allowance for probable loan losses. Net income for
the year ended December�31, 2007, was negatively impacted by a
$13.1 million, after tax, impairment charge on certain investment
securities. The impairment charge was the result of the Company�s
strategic identification of certain investment securities that were
sold in the second quarter of 2007 with the proceeds used to reduce
Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings. The sale of the securities
facilitated a re-positioning of the balance sheet to a more neutral
position in terms of interest rate risk and also improved operating
ratios. The Company�s rapid branch expansion over the last several
years has negatively affected earnings as well, but management has
pursued this strategy because the long term benefits of a broadly
based branch system will benefit the Company over time.
On December 23, 2008, the Company completed the issuance and
sale of $216 million of Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred
Stock, Series A, to the U.S. Treasury as part of the government�s
Capital Purchase Program (�CPP�), a voluntary initiative for
healthy financial institutions designed to support the economy by
increasing financing to businesses and consumers. The Company�s
Series A Preferred Stock will pay a cumulative annual dividend rate
of 5 percent for the first five years and will reset to an annual
rate of 9 percent after year five. The Series A Preferred Stock is
callable by the Company, in whole or in part, at par after three
years. The Company may call these securities during the first three
years, also in whole or in part, but only with the proceeds of
newly-issued Tier 1 equity capital in an amount of at least 25% of
the $216 million. In conjunction with the purchase of the Company�s
Series A Preferred Stock, the U.S. Treasury received a warrant to
purchase 1,326,238 shares of the Company�s common stock at an
exercise price of $24.43 per share. The term of the common stock
warrant is ten years.
The Company�s intention is to utilize the extra capital provided
by the CPP funds to support its efforts to prudently and
transparently provide lending and liquidity.

�I�m pleased with the Company�s earnings for 2008 especially in
view of the economic turmoil that has engulfed the United States
and the global economy. During this financial crisis, and the
general anxiety regarding liquidity, the Company has maintained its
focus on meeting the challenges that confront the financial system
and the economy. The Company chose to enter the CPP program even
though the Company was well capitalized. The Company deemed it
prudent to accept the capital in the form of preferred stock
considering the economic crisis. Since the CPP program was only
offered to sound financial institutions with solid regulatory
ratings and was encouraged by the Treasury, the Company deemed it
irresponsible to reject the preferred stock while its competitors
accepted the capital and thereby raised their capital ratios. The
CPP is not a bank bailout program and it is totally distinct from
the aid the government has provided to certain large troubled
financial institutions which the government is calling exceptional
financial assistance. The Company plans to follow the spirit of the
program and continue to seek out qualified borrowers and continue
lending and investing,� said Dennis E. Nixon, President and
CEO.
Total assets at December�31, 2008 were $12.4 billion
compared to $11.2 billion at December�31, 2007. Total net
loans were $5.8 billion at December�31, 2008 compared to
$5.5 billion at December�31, 2007. Deposits were $6.9
billion at December�31, 2008 compared to $7.2 billion at
December�31, 2007.
