SFAS No. 141 will require upon adoption of SFAS No. 142, that the Company evaluate its existing intangible assets and goodwill that were acquired in a prior purchase business combination, and to make any necessary reclassifications in order to conform with the new criteria in SFAS No. 141 for recognition apart from goodwill. Upon adoption of SFAS No. 142, the Company will be required to reassess the useful lives and residual values of all intangible assets acquired in purchase business combinations, and make any necessary amortization period adjustments by the end of the first interim period after adoption. In addition, to the extent an intangible asset is identified as having an indefinite useful life, the Company will be required to test the intangible asset for impairment in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 142 within the first interim period. Any impairment loss will be measured as of the date of adoption and recognized as the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle in the first interim period.
In connection with the transitional goodwill impairment evaluation, SFAS No. 142 will require the Company to perform an assessment of whether there is an indication that goodwill is impaired as of the date of adoption. To accomplish this the Company must identify its reporting units and determine the carrying value of each reporting unit by assigning the assets and liabilities, including the existing goodwill and intangible assets, to those reporting units as of the date of adoption. The Company will then have up to six months from the date of adoption to determine the fair value of each reporting unit and compare it to the reporting unit’s carrying amount. To the extent a reporting unit’s carrying amount exceeds its fair value, an indication exists that the reporting unit’s goodwill may be impaired and the Company must perform the second step of the transitional impairment test. In the second step, the Company must compare the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill, determined by allocating the reporting unit’s fair value to all of it assets (recognized and unrecognized) and liabilities in a manner similar to a purchase price allocation in accordance with SFAS No. 141, to its carrying amount, both of which would be measured as of the date of adoption. This second step is required to be completed as soon as possible, but no later than the end of the year of adoption. Any transitional impairment loss will be recognized as the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle in the Company’s statement of earnings.
As of the date of adoption, the Company expects to have unamortized goodwill in the amount of $21,510,000, unamortized identifiable intangible assets in the amount of $37,723,000, all of which will be subject to the transition provisions of SFAS Nos. 141 and 142. Amortization expense related to goodwill was $298,000 and $657,000 for the year ended December 31, 2000 and the six months ended June 30, 2001, respectively. Because of the extensive effort needed to comply with adopting SFAS Nos. 141 and 142, it is not practicable to reasonably estimate the impact of adopting these Statements on the Company’s financial statements at the date of this report, including whether any transitional impairment losses will be required to be recognized as the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle.
Effective April 1, 2001, IBC through its insurance subsidiary, acquired the assets of Grove Agency Insurance, Inc., of Corpus Christi, Texas. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase transaction. In connection with the acquisition, IBC recorded goodwill totaling $1,575,000 which is being amortized on a straight-line basis over a fifteen year period.
Effective February 16, 2001, IBC acquired the assets of First Equity Corporation, an Austin, Texas based mortgage company. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase transaction. In connection with the acquisition, IBC recorded goodwill totaling $4,864,000 which is being amortized on a straight-line basis over a fifteen year period.
Effective October 2, 2000, the Company purchased a controlling interest in the GulfStar Group, a Houston-based investment banking firm serving middle-market corporations primarily in Texas. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase transaction. In connection with the acquisition, the Company recorded goodwill totaling $13,199,000 which is being amortized on a straight-line basis over a fifteen year period.
During 2000, IBC established an insurance subsidiary and acquired the assets of two insurance agencies in Texas. The acquisitions were accounted for as a purchase transaction. In connection with the acquisitions, IBC recorded goodwill totaling $3,003,000 which is being amortized on a straight-line basis over a fifteen year period.
Note 3 - Investment Securities
The Company classifies debt and equity securities into one of three categories: held-to maturity, available-for-sale, or trading. Such classifications are reassessed for appropriate classification at each reporting date. Securities classified as “held-to-maturity” are carried at amortized cost for financial statement reporting, while securities classified as “available-for-sale” and “trading” are carried at their fair value. Unrealized holding gains and losses are included in net income for those securities classified as “trading”, while unrealized holding gains and losses related to those securities classified as “available-for-sale” are excluded from net income and reported net of tax as other comprehensive income and as a separate component of shareholders’ equity until realized.
A summary of the investment securities held to maturity and securities available for sale as reflected on the books of the Company is as follows:

The Company classifies as impaired those loans where it is probable that all amounts due according to contractual terms of the loan agreement will not be collected. The Company has identified these loans through its normal loan review procedures. Impaired loans included 1) all non-accrual loans, 2) loans which are 90 days or over past due unless they are well secured (the collateral value is sufficient to cover principal and accrued interest) and are in the process of collection, and 3) other loans which management believes are impaired. Substantially all of the Company's impaired loans are measured based on the fair value of the collateral. In limited cases the Company may use other methods to determine the level of impairment of a loan if such loan is not collateral dependent. Amounts received on non-accruals loans are normally applied, for financial accounting purposes, first to principal and then to interest after all principal has been collected.
Management of the Company recognizes the risks associated with impaired loans. However, management's decision to place loans in this category does not necessarily mean that the Company expects losses to occur. The Company’s impaired loan balance at the end of the six month period of both 2001 and 2000 was not material to the Company’s consolidated financial position.
The subsidiary banks charge off that portion of any loan which management considers to represent a loss as well as that portion of any other loan which is classified as a “loss” by bank examiners. Commercial and industrial or real estate loans are generally considered by management to represent a loss, in whole or part, when an exposure beyond any collateral coverage is apparent and when no further collection of the loss portion is anticipated based on the borrower's financial condition and general economic conditions in the borrower's industry. Generally, unsecured consumer loans are charged-off when 90 days past due.
While management of the Company considers that it is generally able to identify borrowers with financial problems reasonably early and to monitor credit extended to such borrowers carefully, there is no precise method of predicting loan losses. The determination that a loan is likely to be uncollectible and that it should be wholly or partially charged-off as a loss, is an exercise of judgment. Similarly, the determination of the adequacy of the allowance for possible loan losses, can be made only on a subjective basis. It is the judgment of the Company's management that the allowance for possible loan losses at June 30, 2001, was adequate to absorb possible losses from loans in the portfolio at that date.
Note 5 - Stock and Cash Dividends
All per share data presented has been restated to reflect the stock splits effected through stock dividends which became effective May 18, 2000 and May 17, 2001 and were paid on June 12, 2000 and June 15, 2001, respectively. Such stock dividends resulted in the issuance of 5,280,503 and 6,627,539 shares of Common Stock in 2000 and 2001, respectively. A cash dividend of $.60 and $.50 per share was paid to holders of record of Common Stock on April 14, 2000 and October 16, 2000, respectively. A cash dividend of $.50 per share was paid to all holders of record of Common Stock on April 16, 2001.
The Company announced a new formal stock repurchase program on June 22, 1999 and announced it expanded the stock repurchase program on July 16, 1999, January 11, 2000, December 21, 2000, and on July 24, 2001. Under the formal stock repurchase program, the Company is authorized to repurchase up to $60,000,000 of its common stock through December 2002. Stock repurchases may be made from time to time, on the open market or through private transactions. Shares repurchased in this program will be held in treasury for reissue for various corporate purposes, including employee stock option plans. As of August 10, 2001, a total of 1,176,490 shares were repurchased under this program at a cost of $47,346,000 which shares are now reflected as 1,553,526 shares of treasury stock as adjusted for stock dividends. Stock repurchases are presented quarterly at the Company's Board of Directors meetings and the Board of Directors has stated that the aggregate investment in treasury stock should not exceed $80,793,000. In the past, the board has increased previous caps on treasury stock once they were met, but there are no assurances that an increase of the $80,793,000 cap will occur in the future. As of August 10, 2001, the Company has acquired approximately 6,887,985 shares of treasury stock at a cost of approximately $68,319,000, which amount has been accumulated since the inception of the Company.
On April 3, 1996, the Board of Directors adopted the 1996 International Bancshares Corporation Stock Option Plan. The Plan replaced the 1987 International Bancshares Corporation Key Contributor Stock Option Plan. Subject to certain adjustments, the maximum number of shares of common stock which may be made subject to options granted under the new Plan is 1,371,087, including 469,910 shares remaining available for the issuance of options under the new Plan. The 219,348 shares of common stock remaining available under the 1987 Plan will be treated as authorized for issuance upon exercise of options granted under the 1987 Plan only. As of June 30, 2001, options to acquire 219,348 and 901,177 shares of common stock remain outstanding under the 1987 Plan and the new Plan, respectively.
On October 2, 2000, the Company granted nonqualified stock options exercisable for a total of 150,000 shares of Common Stock to certain employees of the GulfStar Group. The grants were not made under either the 1987 Plan or the 1996 Plan. As of June 30, 2001, options to acquire 150,000 shares of common stock remain outstanding to certain employees of the GulfStar Group.
Note 6 - Commitments and Contingent Liabilities
The Company and its bank subsidiaries are involved in various legal proceedings that are in various stages of litigation. Some of these actions allege “lender liability” claims on a variety of theories and claim substantial actual and punitive damages. The Company and its subsidiaries have determined, based on discussions with their counsel, that any material loss in such actions, individually or in the aggregate, is remote or the damages sought, even if fully recovered, would not be considered material to the financial condition or results of operations of the Company and its subsidiaries. However, many of these matters are in various stages of proceedings and further developments could cause management to revise its assessment of these matters.
The Company’s lead bank subsidiary has invested in several lease financing transactions. Two of the lease financing transactions have been examined by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”). In both transactions, a subsidiary of the lead bank is the owner of a ninety-nine percent (99%) limited partnership interest. The IRS has issued a Notice of Proposed Adjustments to Affected Items of a partnership for each of the transactions and the affected partnership has submitted a Protest contesting the adjustments. In one of the matters, the IRS has issued a Notice of Final Partnership Administrative Adjustment and the Company is currently assessing its alternatives with respect to this matter. No reliable prediction can be made at this time as to the likely outcome of the IRS proceedings regarding the lease transactions; however, if the IRS proceedings are decided adversely to the partnerships, all or a portion of the $12 million in tax benefits previously recognized by the Company in connection with these lease financing transactions would be in question. Management has estimated the Company’s exposure in connection with these transactions and has reserved the estimated amount. Management intends to continue to evaluate the merits of this matter and make appropriate revisions if warranted.
Item 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Net income for the second quarter of 2001 was $19,900,000 or $.75 per share - basic ($.73 per share - diluted) compared to $21,087,000 or $.79 per share - basic ($.78 per share - diluted) in the second quarter of 2000, which represents a 6% decrease from the corresponding 2000 period.
Historically, the Company’s acquisitions have been accounted for using the purchase method of accounting which results in the creation of goodwill and other intangibles. These amounts are being amortized as a non-cash reduction of net income over time periods from ten to twenty years. “Income before intangible charges” reflects the net income of the Company excluding this amortization. In computing the income tax adjustment, Management has considered the tax deductible amount separately from non-tax deductible amount in making this calculation. The income tax on tax deductible goodwill and other intangibles has been computed using the standard corporate tax rate of 35%, and the non-tax deductible goodwill and other intangibles have been grossed-up using the same 35% tax rate to reflect the earnings result. These two calculations have been combined to reflect the net income tax adjustment displayed in the cash earnings table below. The table reconciles reported earnings to net income excluding intangible amortization (“income before intangible charges”) to help facilitate peer group comparisons.

Total assets at June 30, 2001 were $5,811,952,000 which represents a 3% increase over total assets of $5,661,965,000 at June 30, 2000 and a 1% decrease from total assets of $5,860,714,000 as of December 31, 2000. Deposits at June 30, 2001 were $3,818,661,000 an increase of 6% over the $3,605,482,000 amount reported at June 30, 2000, and an increase of 2% over the $3,744,598,000 amount reported at December 31, 2000. Total loans at June 30, 2001 increased 9% to $2,318,240,000 over the $2,129,378,000 reported at June 30, 2000 and an increase of 3% over the $2,250,478,000 amount reported at December 31, 2000. The slight decrease in total assets during the first six months in 2001 can be attributable primarily to the contraction of the Company’s earning asset base caused by a decline to the Company’s short-term fixed borrowings. The aggregate amount of certificates of indebtedness with the Federal Home Bank of Dallas (“FHLB”) decreased to $997,000,000 at June 30, 2001 from the $1,432,500,000 at December 31, 2000. The certificates of indebtedness and the deposits are used to fund the earning asset base of the Company.
As part of its strategy to manage interest rate risk, the Company strives to manage both assets and liabilities so that interest sensitivities match. In this way both earning assets and funding sources of the Company respond to interest rate changes in a similar time frame. Net interest income for the second quarter of 2001 increased $2,607,000 (6%) over the same period in 2000 and the increase is the result of the Company’s growth and efforts to manage interest rate risk.
Investment securities decreased 2% to $2,948,640,000 at June 30, 2001 from $3,001,948,000 as of June 30, 2000 and a 5% decrease from investment securities of $3,098,846,000 at December 31, 2000. Time deposits with other banks at June 30, 2001 increased 24% to $2,570,000 over $2,075,000 at June 30, 2000 and increased 4% over time deposits of $2,471,000 at December 31, 2000. Total federal funds sold decreased 61% to $15,700,000 at June 30, 2001 as compared to $39,900,000 at June 30, 2000 and increased from $500,000 at December 31, 2000.
Interest and fees on loans for the second quarter of 2001 decreased $2,455,000 (5%) from the same quarter in 2000 and increased $5,237,000 (5%) for the six month period ended June 30, 2001 as compared to the same period in 2000. Interest income on taxable and tax exempt investment securities for the second quarter in 2001 decreased $734,000 (1%) from the same quarter in 2000 and increased $3,650,000 (4%) for the six month period ended June 30, 2001 as compared to the same period in 2000. Interest income on time deposits with banks for the second quarter in 2001 increased $21,000 (57%) over the same quarter in 2000 and increased $38,000 (56%) for the six month period ended June 30, 2001 as compared to the same period in 2000. Interest income on federal funds sold for the second quarter in 2001 decreased $111,000 (72%) from the same quarter in 2000 and decreased $27,000 (5%) for the six month period ended June 30, 2001 as compared to the same period in 2000. Overall, total interest income from loans, time deposits, federal funds sold, investment securities and other interest income for the second quarter in 2001 decreased $3,057,000 (3%) from the same quarter in 2000 and increased $9,163,000 (5%) for the six month period ended June 30, 2001 as compared to the same period in 2000. The decrease in total interest income for the second quarter was primarily due to lower market interest rates and the increase for the six month period is due to the growth in the Company’s balance sheet.
Total interest expense for savings deposits, time deposits and other borrowings decreased $5,664,000 (9%) for the second quarter of 2001 from the same quarter in 2000 and increased $1,374,000 (1%) for the six month period ended June 30, 2001 over the same period in 2000. The increase in total interest expense was primarily due to a larger amount of interest bearing liabilities. As a result, net interest income for the second quarter of 2001 increased $2,607,000 (6%) over the same period in 2000 and increased $7,789,000 (9%) for the six month period ended June 30, 2001 over the corresponding period in 2000. This increase is attributed to the Company's efforts to maintain an adequate interest rate spread between the cost of funds and the investment of those funds.
Non-interest income increased $3,922,000 (26%) to $18,810,000 in the second quarter of 2001 as compared to $14,888,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2000 and increased $9,457,000 (34%) to $37,564,000 for the six month period ended June 30, 2000 as compared to $28,107,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2000. The increases in non-interest income were primarily due to the increases in service charges and the increase in other income. The increase in service charges were attributable to the amount of account transaction fees received as a result of the deposit growth, new deposit products and increased collection efforts. The increase in other income was due to the activities of the GulfStar Group affiliate of the Company as well as the activities of IBC’s insurance subsidiary. Investment securities losses of $1,076,000 were recorded in the first six months of 2001 compared to losses of $1,294,000 for the corresponding period in 2000. These losses occurred due to a bond program initiated by management in 2000 to reposition a portion of the Company’s bond portfolio and take advantage of higher bond yields.
Non-interest expense increased $6,919,000 (26%) to $33,649,000 for the second quarter of 2001 as compared to $26,730,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2000 and increased $12,534,000 (24%) to $64,381,000 for the six month period ended June 30, 2001 as compared to $51,847,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2000. Non-interest expense increased due to the Company’s expanded operations at the bank subsidiaries.
The efficiency ratio, a measure of non-interest expense to net interest income plus non-interest income was 49% for the six month period ended June 30, 2001, compared to the year ago ratio of 46%.
The allowance for possible loan losses increased 15% to $33,887,000 at the end of the second quarter of 2001 from $29,367,000 for the corresponding date in 2000. The provision for possible loan losses charged to expense increased 37% to $4,555,000 for the first six months of 2001 compared to $3,334,000 for the first six months of 2000. The increase in the allowance for possible loan losses was largely due to the increase in the size of the loan portfolio and allowance allocations related to Management’s evaluation of current economic conditions. The allowance for possible loan losses was 1.47% of total loans, net of unearned income, at June 30, 2001, compared to 1.38% at June 30, 2000 and 1.37% at December 31, 2000.
On June 30, 2001, the Company had $5,811,952,000 of consolidated assets of which approximately $268,002,000 or 5% were related to loans outstanding to borrowers domiciled in Mexico compared to $240,708,000 or 4% at June 30, 2000. Of the $268,002,000, 63% is directly or indirectly secured by U.S. assets, principally certificates of deposits and real estate; 29% is secured by Mexican real estate; 6% is secured by Mexican real estate, related to maquiladora plants, guaranteed under lease obligations primarily by U.S. companies, many of which are on the Fortune 500 list of companies; 1% is unsecured; and 1% represents accrued interest receivable on the portfolio.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The maintenance of adequate liquidity provides the Company’s bank subsidiaries with the ability to meet potential depositor withdrawals, provide for customer credit needs, maintain adequate statutory reserve levels and take full advantage of high-yield investment opportunities as they arise. Liquidity is afforded by access to financial markets and by holding appropriate amounts of liquid assets. The bank subsidiaries of the Company derive their liquidity largely from deposits of individuals and business entities. Deposits from persons and entities domiciled in Mexico comprise a significant and stable portion of the deposit base of the Company’s bank subsidiaries. Other important funding sources for the Company’s bank subsidiaries during 2001 and 2000 have been borrowings from FHLB, securities sold under repurchase agreements and large certificates of deposit, requiring management to closely monitor its asset/liability mix in terms of both rate sensitivity and maturity distribution. Primary liquidity of the Company and its subsidiaries has been maintained by means of increased investment in shorter-term securities, certificates of deposit and loans. As in the past, the Company will continue to monitor the volatility and cost of funds in an attempt to match maturities of rate-sensitive assets and liabilities, and respond accordingly to anticipated fluctuations in interest rates over reasonable periods of time.
Principal sources of liquidity and funding for the Company are dividends from subsidiaries and borrowed funds, with such funds being used to finance the Company’s cash flow requirements. The Company has a number of available alternatives to finance the growth of its existing banks as well as future growth and expansion. Among the activities and commitments the Company funded during the first six months in 2001 and expects to continue to fund during 2001 is a continuous effort to modernize and improve our existing facilities and expand our bank branch network.
The Company maintains an adequate level of capital as a margin of safety for its depositors and shareholders. At June 30, 2001, shareholders’ equity was $477,429,000 compared to $338,162,000 at June 30, 2000, an increase of 41% and at December 31, 2000, shareholders’ equity was $416,892,000, representing an increase of 15%. The increase in shareholders equity resulted from the retention of earnings and the effects of comprehensive income. Comprehensive income includes unrealized gains or losses on securities held available for sale, net of tax. The net unrealized gains or losses on securities are not included in the calculation of regulatory capital requirements.
The Company had a leverage ratio of 6.94% and 6.54%, risk-weighted Tier 1 capital ratio of 14.01% and 13.23% and risk-weighted total capital ratio of 15.17% and 14.29% at June 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000, respectively. The core deposit intangibles and goodwill of $58,562,000 as of June 30, 2001, recorded in connection with the acquisitions of the Company, are deducted from the sum of core capital elements when determining the capital ratios of the Company.
As in the past, the Company will continue to monitor the volatility and cost of funds in an attempt to match maturities of rate-sensitive assets and liabilities, and respond accordingly to anticipated fluctuations in interest rates by adjusting the balance between sources and uses of funds as deemed appropriate. The net-interest rate sensitivity as of June 30, 2001 is illustrated in the table on page 17. This information reflects the balances of assets and liabilities for which rates are subject to change. A mix of assets and liabilities that are roughly equal in volume and repricing characteristics represents a matched interest rate sensitivity position. Any excess of assets or liabilities results in an interest rate sensitivity gap.
The Company undertakes the interest rate sensitivity analysis to monitor the potential risk on future earnings resulting from the impact of possible future changes in interest rates on currently existing net asset or net liability positions. However, this type of analysis is as of a point-in-time position, when in fact that position can quickly change as market conditions, customer needs, and management strategies change. Thus, interest rate changes do not affect all categories of asset and liabilities equally or at the same time. As indicated in the table, the Company is liability sensitive during the early time periods and asset sensitive in the longer periods. The Company's Asset and Liability Committee semi-annually reviews the consolidated position along with simulation and duration models, and makes adjustments as needed to control the Company's interest rate risk position. The Company uses modeling of future events as a primary tool for monitoring interest rate risk.

Financial Modernization Legislation
On November 12, 1999, the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 (“GLBA”) was enacted. This comprehensive legislation eliminates the barriers to affiliations among banks, securities firms, insurance companies and other financial service providers. GLBA provides for a new type of financial holding company structure under which affiliations among these entities may occur. Under GLBA, a financial holding company may engage in a broad list of financial activities and any non-financial activity that the FRB determines is complementary to a financial activity and poses no substantial risk to the safety and soundness of depository institutions or the financial system. In addition, GLBA permits certain non-banking financial and financially related activities to be conducted by financial subsidiaries of a national bank. Additionally, GLBA imposes strict new privacy disclosure and opt-out requirements regarding the ability of financial institutions to share personal non-public customer information with third parties.
Under the GLBA, a bank holding company may become certified as a financial holding company by filing a declaration with the FRB, together with a certification that each of its subsidiary banks is well capitalized, is well managed, and has at least a satisfactory rating under the Community Reinvestment Act of 1977 (“CRA”). The Company has elected to become a financial holding company under GLBA and the election was made effective by the FRB as of March 13, 2000. Effective October 2, 2000, the Company acquired a controlling interest in the GulfStar Group, a Houston-based investment banking firm serving middle-market corporations primarily in Texas. The GulfStar acquisition was the first financial activity permitted by GLBA to be engaged in by the Company. The Company announced on July 23, 2001 that GulfStar expanded and opened an office in Dallas, Texas.
