GREATER BAY BANCORP REPORTS
NET INCOMEOF $25 MILLION
FORTHE FIRST QUARTEROF 2004
PALO ALTO, Calif., April 21, 2004– Greater Bay Bancorp (Nasdaq:GBBK), a $7.6 billion in assets financial services holding company, today announced results for the first quarter of 2004.
For the first quarter of 2004, Greater Bay Bancorp’snet income was $24.9 million, or $0.43 per diluted share, compared to $21.4 million, or $0.37 per diluted share for the fourth quarter of 2003. This result for the first quarter of 2004 compared to $25.1 million or $0.45 per diluted share for the first quarter of 2003. Based onnet incomefor the first quarter of 2004, Greater Bay Bancorp’s return on average common equity was 14.82% and return on average assets was 1.32%. For the fourth quarter of 2003,net income resulted in a return on average common equity of 13.05% and a return on average assets of 1.10%. For the first quarter of 2003,net income resulted in a return on average common equity of 16.60% and a return on average assets of 1.28%.
The $0.06 increase in earnings per diluted share for the first quarter of 2004 compared to the fourth quarter of 2003 was primarily attributable to the following items:
• | Lower provision for loan losses, due to improving credit quality, contributed approximately $0.05 per diluted share, net of tax. |
• | Increased non-interest income of $6.9 million, primarily due to ABD’s seasonal override commissions and higher gains on investments. This contributed approximately $0.08 per diluted share, net of tax. |
• | These increases were partially offset by added personnel costs, which were largely associated with seasonal accruals and benefits, plus a contribution to the Greater Bay Bancorp Foundation (“Foundation”) which combined to reduce earnings by approximately $0.07 per diluted share. |
The $0.02 decline in earnings per diluted share for the first quarter of 2004 compared to the first quarter of 2003 was primarily attributed to the following items:
• | The decline in interest earning assets, which was partially offset by the increase in the net interest margin, resulting in a decrease of approximately $0.02 per diluted share, net of tax. |

• | Increased operating expenses related to ABD’s acquisition of the Sullivan & Curtis Insurance Agency (“S&C”) in the third quarter of 2003, higher personnel expenses (due to incentive accruals, employee-related insurance and recruiting costs), increased depreciation on equipment leased to others and an increase in the funding of the Foundation collectively resulted in a decline in earnings of approximately $0.08 per diluted share. |
• | This decline was partially offset by increased non-interest income, primarily due to ABD’s growth in revenue stemming from its acquisition of S&C and to the lower provision for loan losses which combined to increase earnings by $0.08 per diluted share, net of tax. |
“We are pleased to report another quarter of solid operating performance,” commented Byron A. Scordelis, President and Chief Executive Officer. “In spite of a rise in operating expenses that was largely due to seasonally incurred personnel costs, our first quarter earnings rose by 16% versus the fourth quarter of 2003. Our non-interest margin continued to expand, and non-interest income from ABD continued to grow. We are also encouraged to note measurable improvements in key credit metrics which we believe to be reflective of our sustained adherence to our relationship-based orientation and disciplined credit principles.”
Non-interest Income
Non-interest income for the first quarter of 2004 increased to $47.5 million from $44.8 million in the first quarter of 2003. The increase was primarily due to increases in insurance agency commissions and fees of $3.9 million partially offset by a decrease of $1.1 million in gain on sale of loans.
Non-interest income as a percentage of total revenues was 38.64% for the first quarter of 2004 compared to 35.02% and 37.02% for the fourth quarter and first quarter of 2003, respectively.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses increased approximately $6.0 million in the first quarter of 2004 from the fourth quarter of 2003. The increase was due primarily to FICA tax increases of $2.5 million, a $900,000 Foundation contribution, and $1.4 million in increased incentive-related accruals.
Operating expenses increased by $6.7 million during the first quarter of 2004 from the first quarter of 2003. The increase was due primarily to operating expenses of $2.7 million related to S&C, an increase in incentive accruals of $411,000, increases in medical and workers’ compensation insurance of $659,000, an increase in depreciation on equipment leased to others of $1.2 million due to the growth of the Company’s leasing business, and a contribution to the Foundation of $900,000.
Balance Sheet
At March 31, 2004, Greater Bay Bancorp’stotal assets were $7.6 billion,total loans were $4.4 billion,total investments, were $2.2 billion andtotal deposits were $5.2 billion.
Total loans declined by $283.0 million from March 31, 2003 to March 31, 2004 and by $101.6 million from December 31, 2003 to March 31, 2004. The year-over-year decline was primarily attributable to a decline of $224.3 million in the construction and land loan portfolio which is reflective of the

relatively diminished level of this activity in the Company’s primary serving areas. In addition, the size of the Shared National Credit (“SNC”)/corporate finance portfolio declined by $27.6 million which is consistent with the Company’s orderly withdrawal from this activity. Total SNC outstandings stood at $15.1 million as of March 31, 2004 involving three remaining credits.
Total core deposits (excluding institutional time deposits) rose by $277.3 million compared to March 31, 2003 and by $183.8 million compared to December 31, 2003. This represents a year-over-year growth rate of 6.20% and an annualized growth rate of 16.20% when compared to December 31, 2003. Total deposits declined by $340.3 million versus March 31, 2003 and by $131.2 million versus December 31, 2003 which is consistent with the Company’s reduced need to fund its investment portfolio with institutional time deposits during those periods.
From March 31, 2003 to March 31, 2004, total investments declined by $250.8 million which was consistent with the Company’s stated goal to move toward a more asset sensitive balance sheet structure. Total investments declined by $52.2 million compared to December 31, 2003.
Mr. Scordelis commented, “The decline in outstanding loans is consistent with what we perceive as a continued softness in regional demand. We are continuing our aggressive pursuit of new business opportunities, but will not compromise our credit standards and principles in that process. In the deposit area, we are pleased by the continued growth in our core totals as it enables us to be less reliant on institutional deposits, and provides us with an effective base to manage our balance sheet when regional growth accelerates.”
Credit Quality Overview
Net charge-offs in the first quarter of 2004 were $5.6 million, or 0.50% of average annualized loans, compared to $6.3 million or 0.54% one year ago and $9.3 million or 0.81% for the quarter ending December 31, 2003. Nonperforming assets of $49.2 million for the first quarter of 2004 decreased from $61.7 million at December 31, 2003 and increased from $40.3 million at March 31, 2003. The ratio of nonperforming assets to total assets was 0.64% at March 31, 2004, compared to 0.81% at December 31, 2003 and 0.51% at March 31, 2003. The ratio of non-performing loans to total loans was 1.08% at March 31, 2004, compared to 1.36% at December 31, 2003 and 0.79% at March 31, 2003.

Of the reported net charge-offs of $5.6 million for the first quarter of 2004, approximately $2.9 million were related to SNC/corporate finance-related credits. The Company has discontinued this business activity, and this portfolio has decreased by 64.6% to $15.1 million in outstandings from a level of $42.7 million one year ago.
The Company’s provision for loan losses for the quarter ended March 31, 2004 was $2.0 million which reflects a reduction from the $7.0 million taken in the quarter ended December 31, 2003 and from $6.5 million taken in the first quarter of 2003. The reduced provision level is consistent with both the Company’s methodology for establishing the adequacy of its loan loss reserve as well as its actual loss experience for the quarter excluding losses from its discontinued SNC/corporate finance activities.
The allowance for loan losses was $122.6 million, or 2.76% of total loans at March 31, 2004, compared to $126.2 million, or 2.77% of total loans, at December 31, 2003 and $129.8 million, or 2.74% of total loans at March 31, 2003. The allowance methodology includes an assessment of relevant economic conditions, employment trends, commercial real estate trends and other data considered to be significant at that time. The results are then evaluated to determine the appropriate level of loan loss reserves for the Company.
Mr. Scordelis stated, “These results reflect our continued focus on rigorous credit management. Excluding losses in the discontinued SNC/corporate finance area, net charge-offs for the quarter approximated only $2.7 million or 0.24% of average annualized loans, and marked reductions were posted in key non-performing loan categories. While some economic research has recently forecasted modestly increasing regional job growth during the balance of this year, we continue to be cognizant of the imperative for discipline in the management of our portfolio.”
Capital Overview
The capital ratios of Greater Bay Bancorp and its subsidiary bank continue to be above the well-capitalized guidelines established by the bank regulatory agencies. The Company’s tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio was 6.90% at March 31, 2004, 7.12% at December 31, 2003 and 6.48%

at March 31, 2003. The Company’s leverage ratio for the first quarter of 2004 was 9.64%, 9.98% in the fourth quarter of 2003 and 9.18% one year ago, while the total risk-based capital ratio was 13.84% at March 31, 2004, 14.13% at December 31, 2003 and 13.34% at March 31, 2003.
During the quarter, the Company initiated a share repurchase program that authorized the purchase of up to $70 million in common stock. At March 31, 2004 the Company had repurchased approximately 1.7 million shares at a total cost of $46.8 million.
Mr. Scordelis commented, “We were pleased with the success of our $240.0 million offering of zero coupon senior convertible contingent debt securities during the quarter and with the initiation of our share repurchase program. We believe that the confluence of our solid operating results, stabilized credit quality, slow regional economic growth, and historically low interest rates made this an opportune time to execute these transactions. We continue to explore and remain sensitive to every option that leads to effective capital management and enhanced shareholder value.”
Net Interest Margin and Interest Rate Risk Management
Greater Bay Bancorp’snet interest marginfor the first quarter of 2004 was 4.51%, compared to 4.33% for the fourth quarter of 2003 and 4.33% for the first quarter of 2003.
The Company proactively manages its interest rate risk exposure and attempts to position the Company to be relatively interest rate neutral, but with a bias toward the anticipated direction of interest rates. Over the last 24 months, that bias has resulted in a reduction in the size of the investment portfolio, which positions the Company to be more asset sensitive in the future to take advantage of a rising rate environment. The investment portfolio is now at its target level and the Company does not anticipate any significant change in its size in 2004, unless there were changes in the economic environment.
Over the last quarter, the stabilization in market rates combined with the mix change in the Company’s balance sheet has resulted in a margin increase. Significant margin expansion is not anticipated in the future, unless short-term market interest rates rise or the balance sheet mix begins to trend toward a larger loan portfolio weighting. Currently, the market anticipates that short-term interest rates will rise in the latter part of this year. Should that occur, the Company is positioned for net interest margin expansion.
Outlook and Business Drivers
• | Loan growth – based on the current forecast of moderate economic growth in our market area, and with our clients’ beliefs that their businesses will grow in 2004, we are anticipating loan growth ranging from the low single to mid-single digits. Even though we are now noting signs of limited job growth and improvement in the commercial real estate environment, the Bay Area economy continues to be challenging. |
• | Deposit growth –we anticipate core deposit growth in the mid-single digits, offset by continued reductions in our non-core funding sources, primarily institutional deposits – with a net result of low single digit growth rate in total deposits. |

• | Net interest margin – based on our current net interest margin position and the mix of our balance sheet, we believe we have seen the majority of the margin compression that will impact the Company. The current consensus of economic forecasts predicts that there will be at least two 25 basis point increases in short-term market interest rates in mid to late 2004, which we would expect to result in an increase of 10 basis points to 30 basis points in our average net interest margin depending on the timing of the rate increases. |
• | Credit Quality – based on our continued aggressive management of credit risk and the current economic outlook, we believe net charge-offs for 2004 will be in the range of 60 basis points to 70 basis points of average loans outstanding. While charge-offs in the current quarter were below our original guidance and current trends in non-performing loans are down, we believe that these trends need to be sustained for a more extended period before revising our current guidance. |
