NBT BANCORP INC. ANNOUNCES QUARTERLY EARNINGS OF $12.1 MILLION; DECLARES CASH DIVIDEND; AUTHORIZES BUYBACK OF AN ADDITIONAL 1,000,000 SHARES
NORWICH, NY (July 23, 2007) – NBT Bancorp Inc. (NBT) (NASDAQ: NBTB) reported today that net income for the six months ended June 30, 2007, was $26.2 million, down 5.6% or $1.6 million from net income of $27.8 million reported for the same period in 2006. Net income per diluted share for the six month period ended June 30, 2007, was $0.77 per share, compared with $0.81 per share for the same period in 2006. Return on average assets and return on average equity were 1.04% and 12.98%, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2007, compared with 1.17% and 14.93%, respectively, for the same period in 2006. The decrease in net income for the six months ended June 30, 2007, was primarily the result of an $8.4 million increase in provision for loan and lease losses compared to the same period last year. This increase in expense was partially offset by a $2.9 million increase in noninterest income and a $3.3 million decrease in noninterest expense.
Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2007, was $12.1 million, down 14.9% or $2.1 million from net income of $14.2 million reported for the same period in 2006. Net income per diluted share for the three months ended June 30, 2007, was $0.36 per share, compared with $0.41 per share for the same period in 2006. Return on average assets and return on average equity were 0.95% and 11.90%, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2007, compared with 1.15% and 14.71%, respectively, for the same period in 2006. The decrease in net income for the three months ended June 30, 2007, was primarily the result of an $8.1 million increase in provision for loan and lease losses compared to the same period last year. This increase in expense was partially offset by a $1.4 million increase in noninterest income and a $3.7 million decrease in noninterest expense.
The comparability of financial information for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, is affected by the acquisition of CNB Bancorp, Inc. (“CNB”). Operating results include the operations of CNB from the date of acquisition, which was February 10, 2006.
Loan and Lease Quality and Provision for Loan and Lease Losses
Nonperforming loans at June 30, 2007, were $34.4 million or 1.00% of total loans and leases compared with $17.4 million or 0.51% of total loans and leases at March 31, 2007, $15.3 million or 0.45% of total loans and leases at December 31, 2006, and $12.9 million or 0.38% of total loans and leases at June 30, 2006. This increase is primarily due to one owner-occupied commercial real estate relationship, as well as several dairy credits. Annualized net charge-offs to average loans and leases for the six months ended June 30, 2007, were 0.32%, compared with 0.20% for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 0.26% for the year ended December 31, 2006. The Company’s allowance for loan and lease losses was 1.66% of loans and leases at June 30, 2007, compared with 1.50% at June 30, 2006, and 1.48% at December 31, 2006.
For the three months and six months ended June 30, 2007, the provision for loan and lease losses totaled $9.8 million and $11.9 million, respectively, compared with $1.7 million and $3.4 million for the same periods in 2006. The increase in the provision is primarily due to the increase in nonperforming loans and charge-offs.
Net Interest Income
Net interest income was up 0.6% to $82.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007, compared with $81.5 million for the same period a year ago. Despite a decrease in the Company’s fully taxable equivalent (FTE) net interest margin, from 3.80% for the six months ended June 30, 2006, to 3.63% for the same period in 2007, the Company experienced a slight increase in net interest income that was primarily attributable to an 5.8% growth in average earning assets. The growth in average earning assets was due primarily to consumer loan growth.
Net interest income remained consistent at $41.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007, compared with the same period a year ago. Despite a decrease in the Company’s FTE net interest margin, from 3.73% for the three months ended June 30, 2006, to 3.63% for the same period in 2007, the Company’s net interest income remained steady. This was primarily attributable to a 3.5% growth in average earning assets. The growth in average earning assets was due to organic loan growth, particularly consumer loans.
The decline in the net interest margin from the prior year is due largely to the effect from our borrowings, money market accounts and time deposits repricing in a higher interest rate environment. Earning assets, particularly those tied to a fixed rate, have not realized the benefit of the higher interest rate environment, since yields on earning assets with terms of three years or longer have remained relatively flat during this period. The Company anticipates that margin pressure will persist into the next several quarters, given the current interest rate environment. Our net interest margin has remained flat from the prior quarter and if the yield curve remains flat or inverted, we expect net interest income to remain relatively flat through 2007.
NBT President and CEO Martin A. Dietrich said, “The increase in non-performing loans is generally limited to the areas already mentioned above and we believe we have recognized these issues in a timely and prudent manner. Despite the increased level of non-performing loans, I remain pleased with our financial performance this year given the challenging environment in which we operate. A sharp focus on our cost structure, as well as steady growth in certain fee income categories has improved our efficiency ratio. In addition, our margin, which had compressed for several quarters, held steady in the second quarter compared to the first.”
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income for the six months ended June 30, 2007, was $26.7 million, up $2.9 million or 12.2% from $23.8 million for the same period in 2006. The increase in noninterest income was due primarily to an increase in fees from service charges on deposit accounts and ATM and debit cards, which collectively increased $1.2 million from growth in our debit card base as well as growth in our demand deposit accounts. In addition, trust administration income increased $0.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007, compared with the same period in 2006. This increase stems from market appreciation of existing accounts and an increase in customer accounts resulting from successful business development. Retirement plan administration fees for the three months ended June 30, 2007, increased $0.5 million, compared with the same period in 2006, as a result of our growing client base.Net securities losses for the six months ended June 30, 2006, were $0.9 million. Excluding the effect of these securities transactions, noninterest income increased $2.0 million, or 8.0%, for the six months ended June 30, 2007, compared with the same period in 2006.
Noninterest income for the three months ended June 30, 2007, was $14.0 million, up $1.4 million or 11.4% from $12.6 million for the same period in 2006. The increase in noninterest income was due primarily to an increase in fees from service charges on deposit accounts and ATM and debit cards, which collectively increased $0.7 million from growth in our debit card base as well as growth in our demand deposit accounts. In addition, trust administration income increased $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007, compared with the same period in 2006. This increase stems from market appreciation of existing accounts and an increase in customer accounts resulting from successful business development. Retirement plan administration fees for the three months ended June 30, 2007, increased $0.2 million, compared with the same period in 2006, as a result of our growing client base.
Noninterest Expense and Income Tax Expense
Noninterest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2007, was $58.9 million, down from $62.2 million for the same period in 2006. This decrease was principally the result of a decrease of $3.1 million, or 9.7%, in salaries and employee benefits. This decrease was due primarily to a reduction in incentive compensation and pension expenses incurred in 2007. Income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2007, was $11.7 million, down from $11.9 million for the same period in 2006. The effective rate for the six months ended June 30, 2007, was 30.9%, up from 30.0% for the same period in 2006. The increase in the effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2007, compared with the same period in 2006 resulted primarily from a tax refund received in the first quarter of 2006.
Noninterest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2007, was $28.0 million, down from $31.7 million for the same period in 2006. This decrease was principally the result of a decrease of $3.3 million, or 20.3%, in salaries and employee benefits. This decrease was due primarily to a reduction in incentive compensation and pension expenses incurred during the first six months of 2007. Office expenses, such as supplies and postage, occupancy, equipment and data processing and communications charges, decreased by $0.3 million, or 3.6%, for the three months ended June 30, 2007, compared with the same period in 2006. Income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2007, was $5.5 million, down from $6.4 million for the same period in 2006. The effective rate for the three months ended June 30, 2007, was 31.3%, up from 31.0% for the same period in 2006.

Loans and leases were $3.4 billion at June 30, 2007, up $84.4 million or 2.5% from $3.3 billion at June 30, 2006, and up $19.6 million or 0.6% from $3.4 billion at December 31, 2006.
