LITTLE ROCK, Ark.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--January 17, 2012--Bank of the Ozarks, Inc. (NASDAQ: OZRK) today announced that net income for 2011 was a record $101.3 million, a 58.3% increase from $64.0 million for 2010. The Company has now achieved record net income in eleven consecutive years. Diluted earnings per common share for 2011 were a record $2.94, an increase of 56.4% from $1.88 for 2010.
For the fourth quarter of 2011, net income was $17.6 million, an increase of 3.8% from $16.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2010. Diluted earnings per common share for the fourth quarter of 2011 were $0.51, an increase of 4.1% from $0.49 for the fourth quarter of 2010.
The Company’s results for the full year of 2011 included gains recognized on a total of three Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) assisted acquisitions, two in the second quarter and one in the first quarter. After taxes, gains on these three acquisitions, net of acquisition and conversion costs, contributed approximately $36.1 million to net income for 2011, or approximately $1.05 to diluted earnings per common share. For the full year of 2010, the Company’s results included gains recognized on four FDIC-assisted acquisitions which, net of acquisition and conversion costs, contributed approximately $19.0 million after taxes to net income, or approximately $0.56 to diluted earnings per common share.
The Company made no FDIC-assisted acquisitions during the fourth quarter of 2011, but its results for the quarter included after-tax costs of approximately $0.47 million, or $0.01 per diluted common share, related to finalizing systems conversions and other matters for previous acquisitions. Results for the fourth quarter of 2010 included the effects of one FDIC-assisted acquisition which, net of acquisition and conversion costs, contributed approximately $4.6 million after taxes to net income, or approximately $0.13 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 returns on average assets and average common stockholders’ equity for 2011 were 2.70% and 27.04%, respectively, compared to 2.13% and 21.62%, respectively, for 2010. For the fourth quarter of 2011, annualized returns on average assets and average common stockholders’ equity were 1.80% and 16.80%, respectively, compared to 2.12% and 21.16%, respectively, for the fourth quarter of 2010.
In commenting on these results, George Gleason, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “We are very pleased with our excellent results for both the fourth quarter and the full year of 2011, which was our eleventh consecutive year of record net income. Our results for both the full year and the fourth quarter of 2011 included record net interest income, our best net interest margin as a public company, record income from service charges on deposit accounts and favorable results for asset quality.”

Average earning assets were $3.04 billion in 2011, an 18.0% increase from $2.58 billion in 2010. The increase in average earning assets in 2011 compared to 2010 was due primarily to a $549 million increase in the average balance of covered loans, partially offset by a $60 million decrease in the average balance of non-covered loans and leases and a $25 million decrease in the average balance of investment securities.

The increase in average earning assets in the fourth quarter of 2011 compared to the fourth quarter of 2010 was primarily due to a $429 million increase in the average balance of covered loans, a $25 million increase in the average balance of investment securities and a $5 million increase in the average balance of non-covered loans and leases.

Other loss share income increased to $1.50 million in the fourth quarter of 2011 compared to $0.30 million in the fourth quarter of 2010. Income from these sources increased in 2011 compared to 2010 primarily because the Company had entered into seven FDIC-assisted acquisitions as of December 31, 2011 compared to four as of December 31, 2010.
Net gains on investment securities decreased to $0.93 million in 2011 compared to $4.54 million in 2010. Net losses on investment securities were $0.06 million in the fourth quarter of 2011 compared to net gains of $0.23 million in the fourth quarter of 2010.

In addition to acquisition and conversion costs, the increases in the Company’s non-interest expense for both 2011 and 2010 included 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 111 offices and 1,084 full-time equivalent employees at December 31, 2011 compared to 90 offices and 881 full-time equivalent employees at December 31, 2010 and 73 offices and 722 full-time equivalent employees at December 31, 2009.
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 December 31, 2011, the carrying value of loans covered by loss share was $807 million, repossessions and foreclosed real estate covered by loss share were $73 million and the FDIC loss share receivable was $278 million. At December 31, 2010, the carrying value of loans covered by loss share was $489 million, repossessions and foreclosed real estate covered by loss share were $31 million and the FDIC loss share receivable was $158 million. The carrying values at December 31, 2010 have been adjusted to reflect the Company’s final valuations for assets acquired and liabilities assumed from its four 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 generally excluded from the Company’s computations of its asset quality ratios, except for their inclusion in total assets or where otherwise indicated.
Excluding covered loans, nonperforming loans and leases as a percent of total loans and leases decreased to 0.70% as of year-end 2011 compared to 0.75% as of year-end 2010.
Excluding covered loans and repossessions and foreclosed other real estate covered by FDIC loss share agreements, nonperforming assets as a percent of total assets decreased to 1.17% as of year-end 2011 compared to 1.72% as of year-end 2010.
Excluding covered loans, 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 decreased to 1.56% as of December 31, 2011, compared to 2.02% as of year-end 2010.
The Company’s net charge-offs decreased to $12.8 million for the full year of 2011, compared to $15.4 million for 2010. The Company’s net charge-offs for the full year of 2011 included $12.5 million for non-covered loans and leases and $0.3 million for covered loans. There were no net charge-offs of covered loans in 2010. For the fourth quarter of 2011, the Company’s net charge-offs increased to $4.2 million, compared to $4.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2010. The Company’s net charge-offs for the fourth quarter of 2011 included $3.9 million for non-covered loans and leases and $0.3 million for covered loans.
The Company’s net charge-off ratio for its non-covered loans and leases was 0.69% for the full year of 2011, compared to 0.81% in 2010. The Company’s net charge-off ratio for all loans and leases, including both covered and non-covered loans and leases, was 0.49% for the full year of 2011, compared to 0.73% for 2010. The Company’s annualized net charge-off ratio for its non-covered loans and leases was 0.84% for the fourth quarter of 2011 compared to 0.87% for the fourth quarter of 2010. The Company’s annualized net charge-off ratio for all loans and leases was 0.62% for the fourth quarter of 2011 compared to 0.72% for the fourth quarter of 2010.
For the full year of 2011, the Company’s provision for loan and lease losses decreased to $11.8 million, including $11.5 million for non-covered loans and leases and $0.3 million for covered loans, compared to $16.0 million for non-covered loans and leases and no provision for covered loans in 2010.

The Company’s allowance for loan and lease losses was $39.2 million, or 2.08% of total non-covered loans and leases at December 31, 2011, compared to $40.2 million, or 2.17% of total non-covered loans and leases at December 31, 2010.
