This represents earnings of $0.51 per diluted share, an increase of 8.5% over the 2003 first quarter. Return on average equity was 15.62% for the first quarter 2004, up from 15.02% in the same quarter a year ago. Return on average assets was 0.99%, up from 0.98% for the comparable period last year. The net interest margin on a tax equivalent basis was 3.19%, compared to 3.18% for the first quarter 2003. Average core loans increased 20% over the first quarter of 2003, driven by strong loan demand in both the commercial and consumer business segments. Average core commercial real estate loans grew $129 million, or 23%, while core commercial and industrial loans grew $44 million, or 13%. Average core consumer loans rose $172 million, or 20%, despite the high level of refinancing activity that took place in the home equity and marine loan portfolios. Average core deposits grew by $103 million, or 4%, over last year. Demand and money market deposit growth was particularly strong at $137 million and $33 million, respectively. Core loans include all loans except purchased loans, participations outside the Bank's defined market area, and Provident-originated loans from discontinued product lines. Provident's core deposits include all deposits except brokered deposits. Non-interest income, excluding net gains, grew to $22.8 million, up from $21.3 million in the first quarter 2003. Provident also continued to post solid fee income growth. Total deposit service fees increased $1.2 million, or 7%, over the 2003 first quarter, driven by growth in commercial and consumer deposit accounts and transaction volume. Total non-performing loans at March 31, 2004 were $18.9 million, down $2.7 million, or 13%, from the same quarter last year. Net charge-offs declined 33%, from $2.4 million to $1.6 million, and the allowance for loan losses, at 1.28% of period-end loans, was approximately 200% of non-performing loans. Substantially all of the non-performing loans have been reduced to their recoverable value and are secured by residential real estate. Capital ratios remained sound. The leverage ratio increased to 8.56%, compared to 7.51% in the first quarter of 2003. Total risk-based capital increased to 15.38%, up from 13.23% at first quarter end 2003. SOUTHERN FINANCIAL BANCORP INC. MERGER Maryland law requires the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the Company's outstanding shares to approve a proposed merger. Provident shareholders today provided that approval for the Company's proposed merger with Southern Financial Bancorp. Southern Financial's shareholders meeting to vote on the transaction will take place on April 29, 2004. 2 3 On November 3, 2003 Provident Bankshares Corporation and Southern Financial Bancorp, Inc. announced a strategic merger which will strengthen Provident's commercial banking market position in Virginia and metropolitan Washington, and provide the opportunity to expand the Company's consumer banking presence into central and eastern Virginia. Management is considering strategic alternatives related to the Norfolk/Tidewater area branches. Transition and integration activities are in process and on schedule, as are the necessary SEC and regulatory filings and notices. The transaction is expected to close on April 30, 2004. SECOND QUARTER CAPITAL RECOVERY AND OPTIMIZATION PLAN During the past three years, the transition of Provident's balance sheet to core assets and liabilities has emphasized a reduction in non-core loans and non-core deposits. Post-acquisition, the Company will decrease the size of the investment portfolio in relation to total assets, in addition to planned reductions in non-core loans. Management believes the consolidation of Provident's and Southern's balance sheets provides the opportunity to achieve this reduction in non-core balances more quickly and efficiently. The objective of the balance sheet transition is to improve the Company's financial fundamentals; specifically, improvement in return on assets, net interest margin and capital ratios. After the merger, and contingent upon its completion, management will accomplish the balance sheet consolidation by reducing mortgage-backed securities by $420 million and Federal Home Loan Bank and other borrowings by $420 million. As a result, pre-tax earnings for the full year 2004 are expected to be reduced by $10 million, or $0.22 per share after-tax. Of the $10 million, $8.3 million, or $0.18 per share after-tax, will be a result of losses on the debt and security transactions and $1.7 million will be a result of lower net interest income. The attached table presents a summary of the quarterly and annual impact of this activity for 2004 and 2005. DIVIDEND DECLARED Provident Bankshares announced today that its Board of Directors has declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.25 per share. This is the forty-second consecutive quarterly dividend increase. The quarterly cash dividend will be paid on May 14, 2004 to stockholders of record at the close of business on May 3, 2004. MANAGEMENT COMMENT Commenting on the Company's first quarter performance, Chairman and CEO Gary N. Geisel said, "I am pleased to announce that Provident Bankshares Corporation shareholders today approved our merger with Southern Financial Bancorp. We believe the combined Provident-Southern franchise will become a regional banking powerhouse that can respond equally well to the needs of both consumer and commercial customers. As a larger, more geographically diverse organization, Provident will continue to provide the products and services of our largest competitors, while delivering the level of service found in only the best community banks. This merger presents very exciting growth opportunities for us, but we also just completed another strong and balanced quarter at Provident Bank. We saw steady growth in our core loan and deposit balances, in our consumer and commercial business lines and in our Baltimore and Washington metropolitan markets. Provident's financial accomplishments continue to be the result of the consistent execution of our fundamental business strategies." 3 4 KEY BUSINESS STRATEGIES CONTINUE TO DRIVE RESULTS Continued commitment to its key business strategies enabled Provident to post positive results in the first quarter, despite economic and geopolitical uncertainty. The Bank is well positioned for solid performance throughout 2004. Provident's key business strategies are: o BROADEN PRESENCE AND CUSTOMER BASE IN THE VIRGINIA AND WASHINGTON METROPOLITAN MARKETS Provident continued to increase its production from these key expansion areas. Average commercial and consumer deposits grew by 31% and 3%, respectively. Consumer transaction account balances increased from $121 million in the first quarter of last year to $151 million in the current quarter. This represents growth of 25%. Provident grew its number of transaction accounts in these markets by over 3,000 accounts, or 12%, over the first quarter of last year. Average money market deposits grew 8% while time deposits (primarily certificates of deposit) declined 14%. In the current quarter, Provident achieved 72% growth in average core consumer loan balances over the first quarter of 2003 in the Washington market, evidencing its ability to capture consumer loan demand in this market. o GROW COMMERCIAL BUSINESS IN MARYLAND AND VIRGINIA Strong commercial deposit growth occurred with transaction account balances growing 19%, and money market balances growing 36%. Average core commercial loan demand remained strong with Provident growing its average core commercial portfolio by 19%. o FOCUS RESOURCES ON GROWTH IN CORE BUSINESS LINES Core banking operations continued to drive Provident's positive results. Average core loans now comprise 74% of total loans, up $345 million, or 20%, over the first quarter 2003. Average core consumer loan balances increased $172 million, or 20%, over the 2003 first quarter. Provident's expertise in marine and home equity lending resulted in average marine loan and home equity balances increasing 8% and 39%, respectively, over the same quarter last year. Average core commercial loans increased 19%, or $173 million, from the 2003 first quarter and the average non-core commercial loan portfolio continued to decrease, averaging $28 million for the quarter, down 44% from the same quarter in 2003. Despite a decrease in core certificate of deposit balances of 15%, average core deposit balances continued their steady growth, increasing $103 million, or 4%, driven by a 16% increase in demand deposit balances. Non-core deposits (brokered deposits) posted a significant decline of $179 million, or 45%. Average core deposits now represent 93% of total deposits, up from 87% in the first quarter 2003. 4 5 o IMPROVE FINANCIAL FUNDAMENTALS Return on average assets was 0.99%, up from 0.98% in the first quarter 2003, and return on equity was 15.62%, up from 15.02% for the first quarter last year. The leverage ratio was 8.56% and total risk-based capital was 15.38%. Asset quality remained strong, with non-performing loans decreasing $2.7 million to $18.9 million at March 31, 2004. Net charge-offs also decreased to $1.6 million, a 33% decline from the first quarter last year. The current allowance for loans represents 5.6 times the quarter's annualized charge-off rate to average loans. OUTLOOK FOR THE FUTURE Commenting on the future for Provident Bankshares, Chairman and CEO Gary N. Geisel added, "We are excited about our ability with the Southern Financial merger to accelerate the transition to a balance sheet that is more reflective of our core strategies, as well as the improvement to financial fundamentals that will follow. We will be holding the total balance sheet relatively flat as we grow core loans and reduce non-core assets."
