CenterState Banks, Inc. Announces

Third Quarter 2013 Operating Results

(All dollar amounts are in thousands, except per share information)

(All earnings per share amounts are reported on a diluted basis unless otherwise noted)

DAVENPORT, FL. – October 29, 2013 – CenterState Banks, Inc. (NASDAQ: CSFL) reported earnings per share of $0.10 on net income of $3,109 for the third quarter of 2013, compared to $0.09 per share on net income of $2,758 reported during the prior quarter. Positive differences impacting current quarter earnings include (1) higher net interest income and (2) release of allowance for loan losses due to management’s belief that future losses will not be as much as in the past, as evidenced by the decline in the Company’s net charge-off history. Management does not believe it needs to qualitatively increase the historical loss factors because it believes the 8 quarter loss history is reflective of probable incurred losses in the loan portfolio. Negative differences impacting current quarter earnings include (1) lower bond sales activity in the correspondent banking division and (2) a lack of gain on sales of securities during the current quarter compared to $1,008 during the previous quarter.

Earnings comparisons between the current year quarter and prior year quarter are presented below.

Loan Growth:    Non covered loans (i.e. loans not covered by FDIC loss share agreements) grew $36,922, or 12.5% annualized, during the three month period ending September 30, 2013. During the nine month period ending September 30, 2013, the annualized growth rate was approximately 8.9%. Total new loans originated during the quarter approximated $114.4 million, of which $81.7 million were funded. The weighted average interest rate on funded loans was approximately 4.35%. About 41% of the loan production was commercial real estate (“CRE”), 27% single family residential, 24% commercial and industrial (“C&I”) and 8% were all other. Approximately 67% of the current quarter production was fixed rate and 33% variable rate. The graph below summarizes total loan production and funded loan production over the past seven quarters.

FDIC covered loans and the related indemnification asset:    Purchased credit impaired loans acquired pursuant to FDIC assisted transactions of failed financial institutions have been performing better than previously estimated. To the extent future estimated cash flows have improved (i.e. future estimated losses have decreased), the additional amount of future estimated cash flows are accreted into interest income over the remaining life of the related loan pool(s), thereby increasing the pool’s yield. The yields on the aggregate covered loan portfolio have been trending upward as a result of a decrease in the estimate of future losses. During the past nine quarters, the yields on the covered loan portfolio were as follows:

(unaudited)	3Q13			2Q13			1Q13			4Q12			3Q12			2Q12			1Q12			4Q11			3Q11
FDIC covered loan portfolio		14.15	%		12.03	%		11.06	%		7.71	%		7.03	%		7.51	%		6.69	%		6.80	%		6.21	%

The indemnification asset (“IA”) represents the amount that is expected to be collected from the FDIC for reimbursement of 80% of the estimated losses in the covered pools. When the Company decreases its estimate of future losses, the expected reimbursement from the FDIC, or IA, is decreased by 80% of this amount. The decrease in estimated reimbursements is expensed (negative accretion) over the lesser of the remaining expected life of the related loan pool(s) or the remaining term of the related loss share agreement(s), and is included in the Company’s non-interest income as a negative amount.

At September 30, 2013, the total IA on the Company’s balance sheet was $81,603. Of this amount, the Company expects to receive reimbursements from the FDIC of approximately $50,655 related to future estimated losses, and expects to expense approximately $30,948 for previously estimated losses that are no longer expected. The $30,948 is now expected to be paid by the borrower (or realized upon the sale of OREO) instead of a reimbursement from the FDIC. At September 30, 2013, the $30,948 previously estimated reimbursements from the FDIC will be written off as expense (negative accretion) in the Company’s non-interest income as summarized below.

note 1: On the date of an FDIC acquisition (with loss share), the Company estimates expected future losses and the timing of those losses by loan pool. The related reimbursements from the FDIC for approximately 80% of those losses are recorded as a receivable from the FDIC, referred to as indemnification asset or “IA.” The Company updates its estimate of future losses and the timing of the losses each quarter. To the extent management estimates that future losses are less than prior expected future losses, management adjusts its estimates of future expected cash flows and this increase is accreted to interest income over the remaining life of those specific loan pools, increasing the yield on loans. Because management no longer expects these incremental future losses on the loan pool(s), then the expected future reimbursements from the FDIC for approximately 80% of these losses are also reduced. Instead of immediately charging down the IA for expected future FDIC reimbursements, the IA is written down over the shorter of the loss share period or the life of the related loan pool(s) by negative accretion (amortization) in this line item.

note 2: Two FDIC related revenue items are included in this line item. The first item is FDIC reimbursement income from the sale of OREO. When OREO (those covered by loss share agreements) is sold for a loss, approximately 80% of the loss is recognized as income and included in this line item. Second, when a loan pool (with loss share) is impaired, the impairment expense is included in provision for loan losses, and approximately 80% of that loss is recognized as income from FDIC reimbursement, and included in this line item.

note 3: Pre-tax pre-provision earnings (“PTPP”) is a non-GAAP measure that is defined as income before income tax excluding the provision for loan losses and gain on sale of available for sale (“AFS”) securities. In addition, the Company also excludes other credit related costs including losses on repossessed real estate and other assets, and other foreclosure related expenses. It also excludes non-recurring items as listed in the following reconciliation table.

note 4: PTPP earnings per share means, PTPP as defined in note 3 above divided by the average number of diluted common shares outstanding.

A reconciliation of the quarterly condensed PTPP is presented below (unaudited):

note 1: The primary component in this line item is gross commissions earned on bond sales (“income from correspondent banking and bond sales division”) which was $2,909, $4,904, $6,140, $6,450 and $8,606 for 3Q13, 2Q13, 1Q13, 4Q12 and 3Q12 respectively. The remaining non interest income items in this category include fees from safe-keeping activities, bond accounting services, asset/liability consulting related activities, international wires, clearing and corporate checking account services, and other correspondent banking related revenue and fees.

note 2: A significant portion of these expenses are variable in nature and are a derivative of the income from correspondent banking and bond sales division. The amounts do not include any indirect support allocation costs.

note 3: A portion of the cost of the Company’s indirect departments such as human resources, accounting, deposit operations, item processing, information technology, compliance and others have been allocated to the correspondent banking and bond sales division based on management’s estimates.

Net Interest Margin (“NIM”)

The Company accounts for loans acquired pursuant to acquisitions of failed financial institutions (i.e. purchased credit impaired loans) pursuant to ASC 310-30. If the Company receives a cash payment (or repossessed and transferred an asset to OREO) in an amount in excess of the carrying value of the entire pool, the excess is immediately accreted into interest income, pursuant to ASC 310-30. This event occurred in several loan pools during the current quarter and in certain prior quarters, resulting in additional income of approximately $697 and $1,047, during the third and second quarter of 2013, respectively. Excluding this additional interest income, the yield on the FDIC covered loan portfolio is equal to approximately 13.04% and 10.45% compared to the reported 14.15% and 12.03% during the third and second quarters of 2013, respectively.

The reported NIM increased 37bps to 4.96% in the current quarter compared to 4.59% in the prior quarter. Excluding the ASC 310-30 events in loans covered by FDIC loss share, as discussed above, the current quarter NIM increased approximately 44 bps to 4.82% compared to 4.38% in the prior quarter as summarized in the table below (presented on a tax equivalent yield basis).

	3Q13						2Q13
(unaudited)	net int income			NIM			net int income			NIM
as reported	$	24,964			4.96	%	$	23,322			4.59	%
additional income from increased collections during the quarter:
ASC 310-30 – covered loans		(697	)					(1,047	)
NIM excluding above items	$	24,267			4.82	%	$	22,275			4.38	%

The primary reason for the increase in NIM between sequential quarters is the increase in yields, excluding the accelerated cash payments received as discussed above, on FDIC covered loans accounted for pursuant to ASC 310-30. Each quarter, management reviews and evaluates the amount of potential future losses (i.e. estimated future cash flows) and the timing of those estimated future cash flows. To the extent estimated future losses are revised downward, and as such future estimated cash flows are revised upward, the estimated increase in estimated future cash flows are accreted into interest income over the remaining lives of the related loan pools, thereby increasing yields. During the last nine quarters, the yields on the covered loan portfolio were as follows:

(unaudited)	3Q13			2Q13			1Q13			4Q12			3Q12			2Q12			1Q12			4Q11			3Q11
FDIC covered loan portfolio		14.15	%*		12.03	%**		11.06	%***		7.71	%		7.03	%		7.51	%		6.69	%		6.80	%		6.21	%

* As described earlier, excluding the $697, the yield for 3Q13 is equal to approximately 13.04%.

** As described earlier, excluding the $1,047, the yield for 2Q13 is equal to approximately 10.45%.

*** Similar to 3Q13 and 2Q13, excluding $1,849 for the same reason as described above, the yield for 1Q13 is equal to approximately 8.42%.

Other factors contributing to the increase in NIM were: (1) increase in loans (excluding covered loans) as a percentage of total interest earning assets during the current quarter compared to the prior quarter; (2) change in mix between federal funds sold and securities available for sale; and, (3) to a lesser extent the 2bps decrease in cost of interest bearing deposits.

The table below summarizes yields and costs by various interest earning asset and interest bearing liability account types for the current quarter, the previous calendar quarter and the same quarter last year.

note 1: Numerator equals non-interest expense less non-recurring expenses (e.g. merger costs, bank property impairment, etc.) less intangible amortization (both CDI and Trust intangible) less credit related expenses. Denominator equals net interest income on a taxable equivalent yield basis (“TEY”) before the provision for loan losses plus non-interest income less non-recurring income (e.g. bargain purchase gain, gain on sale of securities available for sale, etc.) less FDIC income related to losses on the sales of covered OREO properties and impairment of loan pool(s) covered by FDIC loss share arrangements.

note 2: Numerator starts with the same numerator as in “note 1”, less correspondent bank non-interest expense, including indirect expense allocations. Denominator starts with the same denominator as in “note 1”, less correspondent bank net interest income and less correspondent bank non-interest income.

Loan portfolio mix and covered loans

Approximately 16.7% of the Company’s loans, or $242,891, are covered by FDIC loss sharing agreements related to the acquisition of three failed financial institutions during the third quarter of 2010 and two during the first quarter of 2012. Pursuant to the terms of the loss sharing agreements, the FDIC is obligated to reimburse the Company for 80% of losses with respect to the covered loans beginning with the first dollar of loss incurred, subject to the terms of the agreements. The Company will reimburse the FDIC for its share of recoveries with respect to the covered loans. The loss sharing agreements applicable to single family residential mortgage loans provide for FDIC loss sharing and the Company reimbursement to the FDIC for recoveries for ten years. The loss sharing agreements applicable to commercial loans provides for FDIC loss sharing for five years and Company reimbursement to the FDIC for a total of eight years for recoveries. All of the covered loans acquired are accounted for pursuant to ASC Topic 310-30.

note 1: Consumer loans acquired pursuant to five FDIC assisted transactions of failed financial institutions during the third quarter of 2010 and first quarter of 2012. These loans are not covered by an FDIC loss share agreement and are being accounted for pursuant to ASC Topic 310-30.

Credit quality and allowance for loan losses

During the quarter, excluding loans covered by FDIC loss share agreements, the Company recorded a negative loan loss provision expense of $1,309 and charge-offs net of recoveries of $1,226, resulting in a decrease in the allowance for loan losses (excluding covered loans) of $2,535 as shown in the table below.

With regard to loans covered by FDIC loss share agreements, the Company recorded a loan loss provision expense of $36. See the table “Allowance for loan losses” for additional information.

The allowance for loan losses (“ALLL”) was $21,321 at September 30, 2013 compared to $23,820 at June 30, 2013, a decrease of $2,499. This decrease is the result of the aggregate effect of a $2,719 decrease in general loan loss allowance, a $184 increase in the specific loan loss allowance related to impaired loans and a $36 increase in the loan loss allowance related to certain impaired loan pools of FDIC covered loans accounted for pursuant to ASC Topic 310-30. The changes in the Company’s ALLL components between September 30, 2013 and June 30, 2013 are summarized in the table below.

note 1: Total loans not covered by FDIC loss share agreements.

note 2: Loans covered by FDIC loss share agreements. Eighty percent of any losses in this portfolio will be reimbursed by the FDIC and recognized as FDIC indemnification income and included in non-interest income within the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations. Four loan pools with an aggregate carrying value of $8,254 are impaired at September 30, 2013, and have a specific allowance of $2,056. The aggregate carrying value of $8,254 represents approximately 69% of the underlying loan balances outstanding.

The general loan loss allowance (non-impaired loans) decreased by a net amount of $2,719. This decrease was primarily due to the Company’s continued improvement in its credit metrics, as evidenced by the continued decline in the Company’s two year charge-off history, partially offset by the growth in its non-impaired loan portfolio.

The specific loan loss allowance (impaired loans) is the aggregate of the results of individual analyses prepared for each one of the impaired loans not covered by an FDIC loss share agreement. The Company recorded partial charge offs in lieu of specific allowance for a number of the impaired loans. The Company’s impaired loans have been written down by $3,448 to $39,880 ($39,096 when the $784 specific allowance is considered) from their legal unpaid principal balance outstanding of $43,328. In the aggregate, total impaired loans have been written down to approximately 90% of their legal unpaid principal balance, and non-performing impaired loans have been written down to approximately 67% of their legal unpaid principal balance. The Company’s total non-performing loans (non-accrual loans plus loans past due greater than 90 days and still accruing, $21,139 at September 30, 2013) have been written down to approximately 75% of their legal unpaid principal balance.

Approximately $31,998 of the Company’s impaired loans (80%) are accruing performing loans. This group of impaired loans is not included in the Company’s non-performing loans or non-performing assets categories.

Any losses in loans covered by FDIC loss share agreements, as described in note 2 above, are reimbursable from the FDIC to the extent of 80% of such losses. These loans are being accounted for pursuant to ASC Topic 310-30. Loan pools in this portfolio are evaluated for impairment each quarter. If a pool is impaired, an allowance for loan loss is recorded.

Management believes the Company’s allowance for loan losses is adequate at September 30, 2013. However, management recognizes that many factors can adversely impact various segments of the Company’s market and customers, and therefore there is no assurance as to the amount of losses or probable losses which may develop in the future. The table below summarizes the changes in allowance for loan losses during the previous five quarters.

The Company defines non-performing loans (“NPLs”) as non-accrual loans plus loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest. NPLs do not include loans covered by FDIC loss share agreements, which are accounted for pursuant to ASC Topic 310-30. NPLs as a percentage of total loans not covered by FDIC loss share agreements were 1.74% at September 30, 2013 compared to 2.11% at June 30, 2013.

Non-performing assets (“NPAs”) (which the Company defines as NPLs, as defined above, plus (a) OREO (i.e. real estate acquired through foreclosure, in-substance foreclosure, or deed in lieu of foreclosure), excluding OREO covered by FDIC loss share agreement; and (b) other repossessed assets that are not real estate, and are not covered by FDIC loss share agreement), were $26,084 at September 30, 2013, compared to $30,526 at June 30, 2013. NPAs as a percentage of total assets was 1.12% at September 30, 2013 compared to 1.30% at June 30, 2013. NPAs as a percentage of loans plus OREO and other repossessed assets, excluding loans and OREO covered by FDIC loss share agreements, was 2.14% at September 30, 2013 compared to 2.58% at June 30, 2013.

The FDIC indemnification asset (“IA”) is producing amortization (versus accretion) due to reductions in the estimated losses in the FDIC covered loan portfolio. To the extent current projected losses in the covered loan portfolio are less than originally projected losses, the related projected reimbursements from the FDIC contemplated in the IA are less, which produces a negative income accretion in non-interest income. This event corresponds to the increase in yields in the FDIC covered loan portfolio, although there is not perfect correlation. Higher expected cash flows (i.e. less expected future losses) on the loan side of the equation is accreted into interest income over the life of the related loan pool. The lower expected reimbursement from the FDIC (i.e. 80% of the lower expected future losses) is amortized over the lesser of the remaining life of the related loan pool(s) or the remaining term of the loss share period.

When a FDIC covered OREO property is sold at a loss, the loss is included in non-interest expense as loss on sale of OREO, and approximately eighty percent of the loss is recorded as FDIC indemnification income and included in non-interest income. Eighty percent of any related loan pool impairments also are reflected in this non-interest income account.

The table below summarizes the Company’s non-interest expense for the periods indicated.

Explanation of Certain Unaudited Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains financial information determined by methods other than Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). The financial highlights provide reconciliations between GAAP interest income, net interest income and tax equivalent basis interest income and net interest income, as well as total stockholders’ equity and tangible common equity. It also reconciles income before income taxes and Pre-tax Pre-Provision (“PTPP”) earnings. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in its analysis of the Company’s performance and believes these presentations provide useful supplemental information, and a clearer understanding of the Company’s performance. The Company believes the non-GAAP measures enhance investors’ understanding of the Company’s business and performance. These measures are also useful in understanding performance trends and facilitate comparisons with the performance of other financial institutions. The limitations associated with operating measures are the risk that persons might disagree as to the appropriateness of items comprising these measures and that different companies might calculate these measures differently. The Company provides reconciliations between GAAP and these non-GAAP measures. These disclosures should not be considered an alternative to GAAP.
