MEMPHIS, Tennessee, (July 15, 2004) — National Commerce Financial Corporation (NYSE: NCF) today announced that second quarter 2004 net income, including merger expenses of $7.7 million after-tax or $.04 per diluted share related to NCF’s previously-announced merger with SunTrust Banks, Inc. (NYSE: STI), was $85.1 million or $.41 per diluted share, compared to $71.5 million or $.35 per diluted share in the second quarter of 2003 and $90.2 million or $.44 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2004.
“I am very pleased with the strength and quality of National Commerce’s second quarter results,” said William R. Reed Jr., president and chief executive officer of NCF. “Operating revenue growth was strong, led by terrific loan and fee income growth, replacing first quarter’s unusually high level of investment securities gains. Expenses were down in personnel and most other major categories, allowing our cash operating efficiency ratio to improve to 46.68 percent. Asset quality remains best in class and our balance sheet is well positioned to benefit from an expected slow rise in rates.”
“Importantly, our earnings per share were negatively impacted by an approximate 2.8 million increase in diluted shares outstanding, as a significantly higher share price resulting from the recently announced merger with SunTrust increased stock option activity and halted our normal share repurchase program,” Reed added. “This increase negatively impacted our reported earnings by approximately one penny per share. As the economy continues to improve, the investments we are making in our existing markets as well as our newest de novo initiatives will provide continued momentum throughout 2004 and into 2005.”
For the first six months of 2004, net income, including the previously mentioned NCF/SunTrust merger-related expenses, was $175.3 million or $.85 per diluted share, compared to $135.6 million or $.66 per diluted share during the same period of 2003.
OPERATING REVENUES
Operating revenues increased 6.9 percent over the second quarter of 2003 and 22.8 percent annualized on a sequential-quarter basis. The increase from first quarter 2004 was the result of a 6.0 percent
annualized rise in taxable equivalent net interest income and a 53.2 percent annualized increase in operating non-interest revenues. Taxable equivalent net interest income benefited from an 8.8 percent annualized increase in average earning assets, driven by a 16.0 percent increase in average total portfolio loans. The Company continues to reduce the size of the investment securities portfolio as strong loan growth continues. Loan production during the second quarter accelerated as period-end total portfolio loan growth increased 23.2 percent annualized over first quarter end. Growth continues to be diversified across all geographies and product categories.

The sequential quarter increase in operating non-interest revenues was attributable to double-digit annualized growth in service charges on deposits, other service charges, mortgage banking, and broker/dealer. During the quarter, the Company realized a gain of $3.3 million, before related incentives of approximately $.7 million, on the sale of mortgage servicing rights that the Company historically sells on a flow basis but had chosen to hold beginning in the third quarter of 2003 due to unusually low market values. The Company has resumed quarterly mortgage servicing sales which will provide anticipated revenues of $1 million each quarter. Additionally, the Company will benefit from lower amortization expense of mortgage servicing rights totaling approximately $1.2 million each quarter going forward.
Operating revenues, operating non-interest revenues and taxable equivalent net interest income, are non-GAAP financial measures, reconciliations of which to comparable GAAP measures are included on pages 20 through 24 of the financial tables supplementing this release.
NET INTEREST MARGIN
The net interest margin percentage for the second quarter of 2004 declined 3 basis points to 3.83 percent from 3.86 percent in the first quarter of 2004 as the earning-asset yield fell 6 basis points and the interest- bearing liability rate fell 3 basis points. The Company remains optimistic that it is well positioned to benefit from a continued gradual increase in interest rates.

ASSET QUALITY
Net charge-offs were .23 percent annualized of average total portfolio loans in second quarter of 2004, an improvement from .28 percent annualized of average loans in the first quarter of 2004. The non-performing asset ratio at June 30, 2004, also improved to .46 percent, down from .48 percent at March
31, 2004. Non-performing assets at period end included $37.6 million of non-performing loans, $22.6 million of foreclosed real estate, and $5.1 million of other repossessed assets.
The allowance for loan losses at June 30, 2004, increased $5.1 million to $178.4 million or 1.26 percent of end-of-period total portfolio loans, from $173.4 million or 1.29 percent at March 31, 2004. The percentage coverage of period-end total portfolio loans declined on a sequential quarter in order to maintain the unallocated reserve and to reflect the continued improvement in the Company’s asset quality measures and a growing unallocated reserve. Additionally, coverage levels of net charge-offs and non-performing loans improved to 5.69 times and 4.74 times, respectively, and remain significantly above industry levels.

OPERATIONAL EFFICIENCY
Results from the Company’s previously announced efficiency project became evident in the second quarter as the cash operating efficiency ratio improved 140 basis points to 46.68 percent from 48.08 percent in the first quarter of this year and 280 basis points from 49.48 percent in the second quarter of 2003. While operating revenues improved over the first quarter of this year, progress was also made in most of the major expense categories. Personnel, occupancy, and equipment each declined or were essentially flat versus the prior quarter. Other expense increased $4.7 million, with the majority of the increase occurring in discretionary areas such as advertising, charitable contributions, and marketing.
With the announcement of the NCF/SunTrust merger, the agreement with the consultant utilized to facilitate the efficiency project has been terminated which resulted in an expense of $.6 million included in the merger-related expenses. Additionally, the second quarter included expenses of $2.1 million related to the project. However, the Company’s effort to improve operational efficiency remains a top initiative and now has become a major responsibility of the NCF/SunTrust merger integration teams. Benefits to the bottom line are anticipated to continue throughout this year and into 2005.

During the quarter, the Company opened a total of nine traditional and eight in-store locations. Of the total, seven traditional locations were opened in Atlanta and the proposed remaining build out is now on hold as NCF and SunTrust evaluate overlap in their respective markets. The Company’s commitment to its partnership with Wal-Mart continues, with the Company having opened five additional locations in the second quarter of 2004 and planning to open an additional 10 in the second half of 2004.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION
This press release contains financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). NCF’s management uses these non-GAAP measures in their analysis of the Company’s performance. These measures, reconciled on pages 20 through 24 of the quarter’s supplemental financial tables, adjust GAAP performance measures to exclude the effects of unusual litigation-related expenses, merger-related expenses, and employment contract terminations as well as the amortization of core deposit intangibles. These non-GAAP measures may also exclude other significant gains or losses that are unusual in nature and not considered part of the core operations of the Company. Since these items and their impact on NCF’s performance are difficult to predict, management believes presentations of financial measures excluding the impact of these items provide useful supplemental information that is essential to a proper understanding of the operating results of NCF’s core businesses. 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.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
These statements constitute forward-looking statements (within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995), which involve significant risks and uncertainties. A variety of factors could cause actual results and experience to differ materially from the anticipated results or other expectations
expressed in such forward-looking statements. NCF does not assume any obligation to update these forward-looking statements or to update the reasons why actual results could differ from those projected in the forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause such a difference include, but are not limited to competition from both financial and non-financial institutions; changes in interest rates, deposit flows, loan demand and real estate values; efficiencies and savings resulting from the efficiency project are not achieved due to variances in the timing of execution of the project and other factors outside the Company’s control; changes in legislation or regulation; consummation of our pending merger; changes in accounting principles, policies or guidelines; the timing and occurrence (or non-occurrence) of transactions and events that may be subject to circumstances beyond the control of NCF; and other economic, competitive, governmental, regulatory and technological factors affecting NCF specifically or the banking industry or economy generally.
