LITTLE ROCK, Ark.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--October 12, 2011--Bank of the Ozarks, Inc. (NASDAQ: OZRK) today announced that net income available to common stockholders for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 was $18.9 million, a 6.5% decrease from $20.2 million for the third quarter of 2010. Diluted earnings per common share for the third quarter of 2011 were $0.55, a 6.8% decrease from $0.59 for the third quarter of 2010.
The Company made no Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) assisted acquisitions during the third quarter of 2011, but its results for the quarter just ended included after-tax costs of $0.7 million, or $0.02 per diluted common share, related to completion of systems conversions for acquisitions previously made. Results for the third quarter of 2010 included the effects of two FDIC-assisted acquisitions which, net of acquisition and conversion costs, contributed approximately $8.8 million after taxes to net income, or $0.26 to diluted earnings per common share.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, net income totaled $83.8 million, a 77.9% increase from net income of $47.1 million for the first nine months of 2010. Diluted earnings per common share for the first nine months of 2011 were $2.43, a 76.1% increase from $1.38 for the first nine months of 2010.
The Company’s results for the first nine months of 2011 included gains recognized on a total of three FDIC-assisted acquisitions, two in this year’s second quarter and one in this year’s first quarter. After taxes, gains on these three acquisitions, net of acquisition and conversion costs, contributed approximately $36.6 million to net income for the first nine months of 2011, or $1.06 to diluted earnings per common share. For the first nine months of 2010, the Company’s results included gains recognized on three FDIC-assisted acquisitions which, net of acquisition and conversion costs, contributed approximately $14.4 million after taxes to net income, or $0.42 to diluted earnings per common share.
On August 16, 2011 the Company completed a 2-for-1 stock split, in the form of a stock dividend, effected by issuing one share of common stock for each share of such stock outstanding on August 5, 2011. All share and per share information contained in this release has been adjusted to give effect to this stock split.
The Company’s annualized returns on average assets and average common stockholders’ equity for the third quarter of 2011 were 1.91% and 18.97%, respectively, compared to 2.60% and 26.28%, respectively, for the third quarter of 2010. Annualized returns on average assets and average common stockholders’ equity for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 were 3.01% and 31.01%, respectively, compared to 2.15% and 21.79%, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2010.
In commenting on these results, George Gleason, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “We are very pleased to report excellent third quarter results. Highlights of the quarter included record net interest income, our best quarterly net interest margin as a public company, record service charge income, favorable asset quality and good growth in non-covered loans and leases.”
Excluding loans covered by FDIC loss share agreements (“covered loans”), loans and leases were $1.86 billion at September 30, 2011, a 1.4% decrease from $1.89 billion at September 30, 2010, but a 3.4% increase from $1.80 billion at June 30, 2011.

Income from these sources increased in the third quarter and first nine months of 2011 compared to such periods in 2010 primarily because the Company had entered into seven FDIC-assisted acquisitions at September 30, 2011 compared to three at September 30, 2010.

The increases in net gains on sales of other assets in the third quarter and first nine months of 2011 compared to such periods in 2010 are primarily due to net gains on sales of foreclosed real estate covered by FDIC loss share agreements.

Other increases in non-interest expense in the third quarter and first nine months of 2011 compared to such periods in 2010 include expenses attributable to the Company’s addition of offices and personnel, primarily through the FDIC-assisted acquisitions, extensive training activities associated with the Company’s acquired offices, increased expenses for loan collection, repossessions and foreclosed real estate related to the Company’s acquired portfolios and ongoing due diligence related to the Company’s FDIC-assisted acquisition opportunities. The Company had 113 offices and 1,102 full-time equivalent employees at September 30, 2011 compared to 90 offices and 838 full-time equivalent employees at September 30, 2010.
ASSET QUALITY, CHARGE-OFFS AND ALLOWANCE
Loans, repossessions and foreclosed real estate covered by FDIC loss share agreements, along with the related FDIC loss share receivable, are presented in the Company’s financial reports with a carrying value equal to the net present value of expected future proceeds. At September 30, 2011, the carrying value of loans covered by loss share was $865.1 million, foreclosed real estate covered by loss share was $73.2 million and the FDIC loss share receivable was $318.7 million. At September 30, 2010, the carrying value of loans covered by loss share was $391.0 million, foreclosed real estate covered by loss share was $17.5 million and the FDIC loss share receivable was $123.7 million. The carrying values at September 30, 2010 have been adjusted to reflect the Company’s final valuations for assets acquired and liabilities assumed from its first three FDIC-assisted acquisitions in 2010. As a result of the FDIC indemnification related to loans, repossessions and foreclosed real estate covered by loss share and the net present value method of valuing these assets, such assets are excluded from the computations of the following asset quality ratios, except for their inclusion in total assets.
Nonperforming loans and leases as a percent of total loans and leases were 1.22% as of September 30, 2011, a 32 basis point increase from 0.90% as of September 30, 2010 and a 13 basis point increase from 1.09% as of June 30, 2011.
Nonperforming assets as a percent of total assets were 1.45% as of September 30, 2011, a 40 basis point decrease from 1.85% as of September 30, 2010, but a six basis point increase from 1.39% as of June 30, 2011.
The Company’s ratio of loans and leases past due 30 days or more, including past due non-accrual loans and leases, to total loans and leases was 1.89% as of September 30, 2011, a one basis point decrease from 1.90% as of September 30, 2010 and a 58 basis point decrease from 2.47% as of June 30, 2011.
The Company’s annualized net charge-off ratio for the third quarter of 2011 was 0.33%, a 55 basis point decrease from 0.88% for the third quarter of 2010. For the third quarter of 2011, the Company’s net charge-offs were $1.49 million, a decrease from $4.23 million for the third quarter of 2010.

For the first nine months of 2011, the Company’s net charge-offs were $8.59 million, a decrease from $11.27 million for the first nine months of 2010.

For the first nine months of 2011, the Company’s provision for loan and lease losses decreased to $7.5 million compared to $11.9 million for the first nine months of 2010.
