Bank of the Ozarks, Inc. Announces Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2012 Earnings
LITTLE ROCK, Ark.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--January 16, 2013--Bank of the Ozarks, Inc. (NASDAQ: OZRK) today announced that net income for the fourth quarter of 2012 was $20.7 million, a 17.6% increase from $17.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2011. Diluted earnings per common share for the fourth quarter of 2012 were $0.59, a 15.7% increase from $0.51 for the fourth quarter of 2011.
For the year ended December 31, 2012, net income totaled $77.0 million, a 24.0% decrease from $101.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. Diluted earnings per common share for 2012 were $2.21, a 24.8% decrease from $2.94 for 2011.
On December 31, 2012, the Company completed its acquisition of Genala Banc, Inc. (“Genala”) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, The Citizens Bank, in Geneva, Alabama. Because the transaction closed at the end of the business day for Genala on December 31, the Company’s results for the fourth quarter and the full year of 2012 include none of Genala’s operating results. However, the acquisition resulted in a gain, net of acquisition and conversion costs, of approximately $1.1 million after taxes, or approximately $0.03 of diluted earnings per common share. This was the Company’s only acquisition in 2012.
The Company’s results for the full year of 2011 included gains recognized on a total of three acquisitions, all of which were Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) assisted transactions. Two of these acquisitions occurred in the second quarter and one occurred in the first quarter of 2011. After taxes, gains on these 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. Although it made no acquisitions in the fourth quarter of 2011, the Company’s results for such quarter included after-tax costs related to finalizing systems conversions and other matters for FDIC-assisted acquisitions of approximately $0.5 million, or approximately $0.01 per diluted common share.
The Company’s annualized returns on average assets and average common stockholders’ equity for the fourth quarter of 2012 were 2.15% and 16.99%, respectively, compared to 1.80% and 16.80%, respectively, for the fourth quarter of 2011. Returns on average assets and average common stockholders’ equity for the full year of 2012 were 2.04% and 16.80%, respectively, compared to 2.70% and 27.04%, respectively, for 2011.
In commenting on these results, George Gleason, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “The quarter just ended was an excellent conclusion to an excellent year. On the last day of the year, we closed our first traditional acquisition since 2003. This was our eighth acquisition, including FDIC-assisted transactions, in the past three years. Our fourth quarter loan and lease growth, even excluding loans acquired in acquisitions, was one of our best ever. For the full year of 2012, our loans and leases, excluding loans acquired in acquisitions, grew $235 million. Our strong organic loan and lease growth, combined with our excellent net interest margin, good efficiency ratio and favorable asset quality, made for a great finish to 2012 and position us well for the future.”
Loans and leases, excluding loans covered by FDIC loss share agreements (“covered loans”) and purchased loans not covered by loss share (“purchased non-covered loans”), were $2.12 billion at December 31, 2012, a 12.5% increase from $1.88 billion at December 31, 2011. Including covered loans and purchased non-covered loans, total loans and leases were $2.75 billion at December 31, 2012, a 2.3% increase from $2.69 billion at December 31, 2011.
Mr. Gleason stated, “Our balance of loans and leases outstanding, excluding covered loans and purchased non-covered loans, increased $85 million in the quarter just ended and $235 million for the full year of 2012. Our unfunded balance of closed loans increased $72 million during the fourth quarter and $456 million for the full year of 2012, growing from $313 million at December 31, 2011 to $769 million at December 31, 2012. This significant increase in our unfunded balance of closed loans has favorable implications for future growth in our balance of loans and leases outstanding.”
Deposits were $3.10 billion at December 31, 2012, a 5.3% increase compared to $2.94 billion at December 31, 2011.
Total assets were $4.04 billion at December 31, 2012, a 5.2% increase compared to $3.84 billion at December 31, 2011.
Common stockholders’ equity was $508 million at December 31, 2012, a 19.6% increase from $425 million at December 31, 2011. Book value per common share was $14.39 at December 31, 2012, a 16.8% increase from $12.32 at December 31, 2011. Changes in common stockholders’ equity and book value per common share reflect earnings, dividends paid, stock option and stock grant transactions, the issuance of stock as part of the Genala acquisition, and changes in the Company’s mark-to-market adjustment for unrealized gains and losses on investment securities available for sale.
The Company’s ratio of common stockholders’ equity to total assets increased to 12.57% at December 31, 2012, compared to 11.05% at December 31, 2011. Its ratio of tangible common stockholders’ equity to tangible total assets increased to 12.31% at December 31, 2012 compared to 10.77% at December 31, 2011.
