Community Bank System Reports Record
Fourth Quarter and Full Year Results
Announces Branch Acquisition and
Proposed $50 Million Common Stock Offering
SYRACUSE, N.Y. — January 22, 2012 — Community Bank System, Inc. (NYSE: CBU) reported record fourth quarter 2011 net income of $19.0 million ($0.51 per share), an increase of 19.5% over the $15.9 million reported for the fourth quarter of 2010. Full year 2011 net income of $73.1 million, or $2.01 per share, was up 15.5% over net income for the year ended December 31, 2010. The Company’s 2011 results included $4.8 million ($0.09 per share after-tax) of acquisition expenses related to the Company’s merger with The Wilber Corporation in early April.
Total revenue for the fourth quarter of 2011 was $77.6 million, an increase of $9.7 million, or 14.3%, over the fourth quarter of last year. The higher revenue was a result of an 18.3% increase in average earning assets, principally driven by the Wilber acquisition and organic deposit growth, offset slightly by a one-basis point decline in the Company’s net interest margin to 4.06%. The quarterly provision for loan losses of $1.6 million was $0.3 million lower than the fourth quarter of 2010, reflective of lower net charge-offs and the continuation of generally stable and favorable asset quality metrics. Total operating expenses were $47.8 million for the quarter, or 8.4%, higher than the fourth quarter of 2010, primarily reflective of the additional operating costs associated with the Wilber acquisition. Total revenue for 2011 increased by $28.2 million, or 10.4% compared to the prior year, reflecting increases in both net interest income and noninterest income.
“Our team produced another quarter and year with record earnings despite significant economic headwinds in 2011,” said President and Chief Executive Officer Mark E. Tryniski. “Just as important, we continued to focus on building additional value into our enterprise through selective acquisitions, disciplined lending and a consistent approach to business regardless of economic conditions. Our recently announced acquisition of 19 bank branches across our core Upstate New York markets will strengthen and extend our existing presence within these areas. Other important 2011 milestones include the successful integration of Wilber National Bank, as our Central New York Region, and the acquisition of CAI Benefits, Inc,, an employee benefits consulting and actuarial business serving the strategically important metropolitan New York marketplace. With continued strong revenue growth, excellent asset quality metrics and our focus on expense management, we are well positioned to continue our performance into 2012.”
Fourth quarter net interest income of $55.1 million increased 19.5% from the fourth quarter of 2010, almost entirely a result of an $891 million increase in average interest-earning assets. The Company has productively reinvested most of its cash flow generation during the last year, but it still retains a significant net liquidity position, with average interest-earning cash balances of $234 million for the fourth quarter remaining well above the $105 million average balance held in the fourth quarter of 2010. Low market interest rates and diligence in managing deposit pricing resulted in the fourth quarter costs of funds declining 24 basis points in comparison to the same quarter last year. The benefit derived from the lower cost of funds was offset by a 25-basis point decline in earning-asset yields, driven primarily by lower yields on investment securities and the $129 million increase in the Company’s holdings of low-rate, cash equivalents versus last year’s fourth quarter. On a full year basis the Company’s net interest income increased $27.7 million or 15.3% in 2011, a product of 13.5% growth in interest-earning assets and a three-basis point increase in the net interest margin.

Fourth quarter non-interest income of $22.4 million was up 2.8% versus the same quarter of last year. The Company’s employee benefits administration and consulting businesses grew revenues by 9.4 % over fourth quarter 2010, and its wealth management group generated an 18.4% revenue increase, driven principally by incremental revenue produced by the acquired Wilber trust operations. Mortgage banking revenues were down $1.4 million from last year’s fourth quarter, reflective of the decision to hold a majority of secondary market eligible mortgages in portfolio in the latter half of 2011, as well as a $0.3 million impairment of mortgage servicing rights in the quarter. Deposit service fees of $11.0 million were up $0.7 million from the fourth quarter of 2010, as the addition of the Wilber branches and solid growth in debit card-related revenue more than offset generally lower utilization of overdraft protection programs. Full year 2011 non-interest income of $89.2 million was up $0.4 million over prior year results, as incremental income from the Wilber acquisition and strong organic growth in benefit plan administration and consulting revenue more than offset a net decline in deposit service fees and lower mortgage banking income.
Quarterly operating expenses of $47.8 million were $3.7 million or 8.4% above the fourth quarter of 2010, reflective of additional operating costs associated with the Wilber acquisition completed in early April, partially offset by lower FDIC costs and acquisition expenses. Full year 2011 core operating expenses of $185.5 million (excluding acquisition expenses of $4.8 million) were $10.0 million or 5.7% higher than the prior year due primarily to the acquisition of Wilber, with a portion of that increase offset by reduced FDIC insurance, core system processing costs and lower intangible amortization.The fourth quarter effective income tax rate of 32.4% was 5.1 percentage points above the rate for the fourth quarter of 2010, and the full year 2011 effective income tax rate of 29.4% was 2.7 percentage points higher than the rate for the twelve months ended December 31, 2010. The increase in the effective tax rate for 2011 was principally a result of a higher proportion of income being generated from fully taxable sources.
Financial Position
Average earning assets for the fourth quarter of $5.77 billion were $891.3 million above the fourth quarter of 2010, and $31.4 million higher than the third quarter of 2011. Ending loans increased $444.7 million from December 2010, reflective of the Wilber acquisition and modest organic growth. Total net loans were down $5.4 million from the end of September, comprised of $19.5 million of net organic loan growth offset by $24.9 million of net contractual and other principal reductions in the acquired Wilber portfolio, including the disposition of certain impaired loans in the quarter. Strong organic growth in consumer mortgage balances during the quarter more than offset continued soft demand in business lending and seasonal declines in consumer installment products. Average investment securities were up $45.2 million from the third quarter of 2011, while cash equivalents of $234.0 million decreased $6.1 million, as the Company actively redeployed maturing loan and investment cash flows and excess funding supplied by deposit growth. Quarterly average deposits were $857.7 million higher than the fourth quarter of 2010, a majority of which is attributable to the Wilber acquisition, with organic growth in core accounts contributing as well. Average deposits increased $13.8 million from the third quarter of 2011, with the longer-term trend of strong organic core deposit growth more than offsetting declines in time deposit balances. Average borrowings for the quarter of $830.3 million were down slightly from both the third quarter of 2011 and the fourth quarter of last year. Year-end shareholders’ equity of $774.6 million was $167.3 million higher than December 31, 2010, driven by the issuance of 3.4 million additional shares in conjunction with the Wilber acquisition, appreciation of the available-for-sale investment portfolio’s market valuation, and solid growth in retained earnings due to robust net income generation and retention. The continued strengthening of the Company’s capital position was evidenced by the net tangible equity to net tangible assets ratio increasing 98 basis points over the last 12 months to end the year at 7.12%.

Asset Quality
Fourth quarter net charge-offs were $1.8 million, compared to $1.1 million in the third quarter of 2011 and $2.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2010, as the Company’s asset quality profile continues to be very favorable. Nonperforming loans as a percentage of total loans at December 31, 2011 were 0.85% (0.67% excluding acquired loans), up from the 0.54% at the end of September 2011, and 0.61% at December 31, 2010, with the increase in the latest quarter being attributable to two large commercial relationships (one acquired) moving to non-accrual status. The total delinquency ratio of 1.99% at the end of 2011 (1.77% excluding acquired loans) was up 43 basis points from September 30, 2011, and up eight basis points from the 1.91% level reported at December 31, 2010. Year-end nonperforming assets to total assets of 0.49% (0.36% excluding acquired loans) was up 16 basis points from September 30, 2011 and was 11 basis points higher than its level at the end of last year. The Company’s asset quality metrics continue to be markedly better than comparative peer and industry averages and illustrate the long-term effectiveness of the Company’s disciplined risk management and underwriting standards. The fourth quarter provision for loan losses of $1.6 million was $0.3 million lower than the fourth quarter of 2010 and up $0.6 million from the third quarter of 2011. The latest quarter’s provision was $0.3 million lower than quarterly net charge-offs, reflective of changes in the proportional mix of loan products in the portfolio. The ratio of allowance for legacy loan losses to total loans outstanding (excluding acquired loans) was 1.36% as of December 31, 2011, down slightly from the 1.38% level at the end of the third quarter of 2011 and four basis points below its level at the end of 2010.
Upstate New York Branch Banking Expansion
The Company announced on January 20, 2012, that it had entered into purchase and assumption agreements to acquire 19 branch-banking centers across its core Upstate New York markets through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Community Bank, N.A. Under the terms of the agreement, Community Bank will acquire approximately $218 million in loans and $955 million in deposits at a blended deposit premium of 3.22 percent.The transaction is expected to close during the third quarter of 2012, subject to regulatory review and approval. The Company anticipates that approximately $50 million to $60 million of capital will be needed to support the acquisition and expects to achieve that through the use of existing liquidity, balance sheet management or capital issuance alternatives.
Benefit Plan Administration and Consulting Services Acquisition
The Company completed its acquisition of CAI Benefits, Inc. (CAI) through its Benefit Plans Administrative Services, Inc. subsidiary (BPAS) at the end of November. CAI is a provider of actuarial consulting and retirement plan administration services with offices in New York City and Northern New Jersey. The transaction adds a meaningful presence in an important strategic market, as well as valuable capacity and prospects for enhanced distribution in support of the Company’s broader-based employee benefit service offerings. With the addition of CAI, BPAS’s annual revenue is expected to exceed $36 million.
Dividend Declared
On January 18, 2012, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a quarterly dividend on its common stock of $0.26 per share, payable on April 10, 2012, to shareholders of record as of March 15, 2012. This two cent (8.3%) increase in the Company’s quarterly cash dividend over the same quarter of last year, represents an annualized yield of 3.7% based on the Company’s closing price of $28.35 on January 20, 2012.
