[LOGO] SUN Bancorp, Inc. News Release For Immediate Release Contact: Dan Chila, EVP, Chief Financial Officer (856) 691-7700 Sun Bancorp, Inc. Reports Second Quarter Results; Outlines Further Moves to Improve Profitability Our mission is uncompromising... ...to be the Premier Community Bank in every community we serve VINELAND, NJ, July 24, 2006 - Sun Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ:SNBC) today reported net income of $3.8 million, or $.18 per share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2006, compared to net income of $4.8 million, or $.24 per share, for the second quarter of 2005. The current quarter includes approximately $400,000 in pre-tax severance related charges ($.01 per share). Earnings per share data is adjusted for the 5% common stock dividend declared in April 2006 and paid on May 18, 2006. For the six months ended June 30, 2006, the Company reported net income of $8.0 million, or $.38 per share, compared to $9.9 million, or $.49 per share, in the prior period. "The reported second quarter results are in line with our preliminary announcement of June 26, 2006," said Thomas A. Bracken, president and chief executive officer of Sun Bancorp, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary Sun National Bank. "As I stated in the June 26 preliminary release, we have intensified our focus on enhancing profitability. We are currently conducting an internal review and assessment of our operations which will lead to further measures during 2006 to increase revenue and reduce the annualized run rate of overhead expenses." "Today we are announcing several prudent and necessary new initiatives that will significantly contribute to our improved performance goal," Bracken said. The developments outlined below are in addition to Sun's June 26 announcement, in which the Company said it was reducing staff by about 8% company-wide to produce an annualized pre-tax cost savings of approximately $3.5 million. --more-- Sun Bancorp 2Q 2006 - page two o The Company continues to evaluate the scope and efficiency of its branch network and has identified a total of five branches that will be sold or consolidated over the balance of 2006. The annualized run rate of expense savings is projected at approximately $1.0 million. o The Company has reviewed several of its major operating services vendor contracts and has negotiated, or is in the final stages of negotiating, new and/or updated contracts that are expected to produce an estimated annualized savings of $1.0 million for 2007. o The Company continues to review and evaluate non-interest income opportunities. Several fee enhancements that are expected to increase annualized fee income by approximately $1.4 million have been identified and implemented. "These specific new initiatives, combined with the previously announced staff reductions, are expected to increase our annual pre-tax revenue run rate by approximately $7.0 million in 2007," according to Bracken. "We are also focused on improving the performance of our retail franchise. As we noted in our June 26 release, we are optimistic that the consulting initiatives currently underway with Ms. Anat Bird, combined with the national search for a senior executive to head the retail business, will result in significant progress toward achieving a high-performance retail banking organization. We are already seeing the effect of Ms. Bird's engagement in our second quarter non-interest income increase," Bracken said. "With the external environment as challenging as it is, we will intensify our internal focus to become as efficient and productive as we need to be. To that end, we have made some tough decisions and will need to make more. We are committed to finish the job we set out to do five years ago - to transform Sun Bank into a high performing, dominant bank within our footprint. To do that, we need to improve our profit significantly while enhancing our customer service and continuing to increase our marketplace momentum. Everything we are doing is targeted at those goals." In shifting his commentary to the key factors driving results during the second quarter, Bracken said the Company, "again had good sequential quarter loan growth, net interest margin increased and was better than forecasted, credit quality remained stable, and non-interest income is trending favorably. Non-interest expenses and our efficiency ratio increased over the linked quarter and are the focus of our attention and are proactively being addressed." --more-- Sun Bancorp 2Q 2006 - page three The following is an overview of the key financial highlights for the quarter: o Total assets were $3.210 billion at June 30, 2006, compared to $3.286 billion at March 31, 2006, and $3.141 billion at June 30, 2005. On January 19, 2006, the Company acquired assets of approximately $164 million and recorded purchase adjustments of approximately $23 million from the acquisition of Advantage Bank. o Total loans before allowance for loan losses were $2.295 billion at June 30, 2006, an increase of $356.7 million, or 18.4%, over total loans at June 30, 2005, and a linked quarter increase of $80.6 million, or 3.6%, over March 31, 2006. o Credit quality trends remain stable. Total non-performing assets were $12.4 million at June 30, 2006, or 0.54% of total loans and real estate owned, a decrease of $1.8 million from $14.2 million, or 0.73% of total loans and real estate owned at June 30, 2005. On a linked quarter basis, total non-performing assets decreased $580,000, or 4.5%. The Bank has outstanding loans totaling $4.9 million that are either directly or indirectly related to a real estate investor in Monmouth County, NJ, who has been accused of engaging in fraudulent activities with a large local bank. All loans are performing and well secured by commercial real estate in Monmouth County and first mortgage liens on his personal residence. o Total deposits were $2.586 billion at June 30, 2006, an increase of $44.8 million, or 1.8%, over deposits at June 30, 2005, and a decrease of $17.0 million, or 0.7%, over the linked quarter. o Net interest income (tax-equivalent basis) for the second quarter of $25.3 million increased $737,000 over the linked quarter. Net interest margin for the quarter of 3.48% increased over the linked first quarter margin of 3.40%. --more-- Sun Bancorp 2Q 2006 - page four o Total operating non-interest income for the quarter of $5.1 million increased 18.4% over the comparable prior year period and increased 14.8% over the linked first quarter 2006. The increase over the prior year period was primarily due to increases of approximately $160,000 in total non-interest income from the January 2006 Advantage Bank acquisition, $230,000 in service charge income, $130,000 in third party investment products revenue, $75,000 in debit card fee income, $60,000 in gain on sale of loans, and $65,000 in residential mortgage fees. The linked quarter increase is primarily due to increases in service charge income of approximately $498,000, and residential mortgage fees of $70,000. Offsetting these increases in the linked quarter was a decrease in gain on sale of loans of approximately $125,000. o Total operating non-interest expenses, excluding $400,000 in severance related charges for the quarter, were $23.2 million, up $1.9 million, or 8.9%, over the comparable prior year period. Of the $1.9 million, approximately $900,000 relates to the Advantage Bank acquisition. The remaining increase is primarily due to increases of approximately $300,000 in salaries and benefits, $160,000 in professional fees relating to non-performing assets, and $140,000 on the loss on the sale of real estate owned. Linked quarter operating expenses increased $961,000, or 4.3%. This was primarily due to a $242,000 increase in total non-interest expenses relating to a full second quarter of Advantage Bank expenses, an increase in marketing expenses of $120,000, and an increase in the loss on the sale of real estate owned of approximately $170,000.
